Reborn Capital Madman

Objectively speaking, in the acquisition battle of Royal Bank of Scotland, Huifeng Bank has the most advantage, and its financial resources are not afraid of any opponents. The "members" card played can block the mouths of Scotland's xenophobics to the greatest extent. As for the momentum,

The determination that must be won comes from the internationalization strategy of the "triangle stool" pursued by the entire company.

However, some bystanders will also be confused. For example, Zhang Yuliang, who is happily investing in the profits with Gao Xian, is quite puzzled. "The hundreds of millions of dollars used by Huifeng Bank to acquire the US Ocean Milan Bank, but it is also a big deal.

It's cash, why is it that now acquiring Royal Bank of Scotland mainly using stock exchanges, which gives Standard Chartered a chance to take advantage of it."

Gao Xian smiled slightly, "If Huifeng Bank can acquire Royal Bank of Scotland as a subsidiary of the group according to this plan, then about 40% of Huifeng Bank's shares will be held by people outside Xiangjiang.

Holding, Huifeng Bank can successfully transfer nearly half of its assets outside of Hong Kong.”

Speaking of this, Gao Xian joked with Zhang Yuliang, "Boss Zhang cooperated with me this time, just by doing it."

Zhang Yuliang, who got what he wanted, burst into laughter with satisfaction. Gao Xian talked about his compliment. This time he was willing to be one of Sir Gao's "purse bags". His biggest motivation was to transfer assets. Now, not only

I achieved this goal and made a fortune, so I won’t mention the sense of accomplishment.

Compared to Zhang Yuliang, although Gao Xian made more money, he failed to win a resource like Royal Bank of Scotland that could not be simply measured by how much money it seemed to have failed in the end.

If others really think so, then underestimate Gao Xian’s meticulousness in setting up this action.

Wei Li, who served as Gao Xian's deputy, knew that Sir Gao's other plan had not failed.

Indeed, in the face of the strong xenophobia of the Scots, Gao Qian compromised, but this dispute was equivalent to a huge advertisement with excellent results, radiating to two world-class financial centers on both sides of the Atlantic - New York and London, showing

Sir Gao's strong strength and precise vision, thus laying the foundation for another goal.

Before the first world oil crisis in 1970s, the global oil pricing power was in the hands of international oil giants such as Mobil, Exxon, Shell, and BP; after the first world oil crisis,

The oil pricing power is gradually mastered by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries founded by Middle Eastern oil-producing countries such as Saudi Arabia and Iraq.

Unfortunately, the good times have not lasted. At present, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries has begun to show signs of price loss; at the same time, the two most famous oil pricing benchmark brands in the "old script" - Brent Crude Oil and West Texas Intermediate Base Oil, are now

It is in a critical stage of stepping onto the stage of history.

Gao Xian’s idea is that the United States has West Texas intermediate crude oil and Europe has Brent crude oil, so Asia should also have a similar benchmark. Although the Middle East, a place with abundant oil reserves, will sooner or later launch its own oil pricing benchmark.

However, it does not prevent the Xiangjiang Futures Exchange from leveraging Xiangjiang's unique advantages as an international financial center.

Obviously, to participate in this kind of game, Gaoxian needs more recognition, including gaining reputation, and going to London to "advertise" has no effect.

Of course, Gao Xian could not be busy with his grand plans. Chen Bi asked him to serve as an advisor to Huifeng Bank's acquisition of Royal Bank of Scotland. No matter how much favors are, he must show his professionalism.

After choosing a suitable opportunity, Gao Xianxiang, who was full of energy, provided information, "I heard the news that the British Monopoly and Mergers Committee is paying attention to the acquisition war of the Royal Bank of Scotland. The main house should still do some public relations work. .”

Chen Bi frowned slightly when he heard this. The reason was obvious. Huifeng Bank was the local emperor in Hong Kong, and Huifeng Bank was a member of the Hong Kong government. Of course, the Executive Council member of the Hong Kong government. It can be said that the Hong Kong government dared not to give Huifeng Bank face, but in London, Huifeng Bank does not have such privileges. This obvious contrast really requires a process of adaptation.

But Gao Xian's information is very important, and Chen Bi must pay attention to it. He nodded and said, "Sir Gao reminded him very timely. I will call on the resources in London immediately. Please also ask Sir Gao to pay close attention to the relevant news."

Although Gao Xian's first time informed, Huifeng Bank began to adopt targeted public relations activities for the official government, "bad news" still came one after another.

First, Standard Chartered Bank, which was most in love with Royal Bank of Scotland, was hit by a blow, and the British Monopoly and Mergers Committee rejected its acquisition plan without saying a word.

If you say you can't do it, it won't do it, and it won't do it!

Next, Huifeng Bank was also subject to the same ruling to acquire Royal Bank of Scotland? No.

He was busy using the money he earned from Huifeng Bank to acquire Gao Xian, a local brokerage firm in London. After hearing the news, he hurriedly asked Chen Bi with a full face of care, what was going on, British monopoly and merger No matter how domineering the committee is, it depends on the mood of the visa officer. I have to give an explanation.

Chen Bi replied with great depression: "The British Monopoly and Merger Commission has given the reason. The regulation of Xiangjiang banking industry does not meet the British standards. In addition, Huifeng Bank enjoys a special status in Xiangjiang."

Gao Xian couldn't help but grin. The British Monopoly and Merger Committee was really cruel and he was just going to the dead, and Huifeng Bank could not fight at all.

This reminds Gao Xian. A few years later in the "old script", the Kuwait Investment Bureau tried to control BP through the stock market. As a result, the British government directly pushed forward, forcing Kuwait to reduce BP's holdings.

Chen Bi quickly thought about it, "Although the plan to acquire Royal Bank of Scotland failed and consumed a lot of resources in vain, it was not without gain. Many problems were not experienced personally, and they really could not be recognized and valued, I will go back to Xiangjiang now to discuss whether Huifeng Bank wants to innovate its original system.”

Seeing Chen Bi so generous and not regretting that he had spent a lot of real money and silver in his spare time, Gao Xian felt relieved. Just don’t take the money back!

After Gao Xian personally sent Chen Bi, who could not hide his lonely expression, boarded the flight to Xiangjiang, Wei Li put down the rift with Huifeng Bank and shouted for him: "I don't know what those people from the British Monopoly and Merger Committee are like this." It is understandable that the regulation of the banking industry in Xiangjiang does not meet the British standards, but Huifeng Bank is the quasi-central bank of Xiangjiang. What's wrong with it? Without this special status, Huifeng Bank may not be able to make that money."

Gao Xian explained patiently: "When Huifeng Bank was established, in order to break through the industry, Huifeng Bank regulations were formulated, and then closely tied with Xiangjiang, and took advantage of this special advantage to develop and grow into today's Xiangjiang Bank. The overlord of the business.”

"This system is always good, but if you really encounter special circumstances, it's hard to say."

"For example, after the outbreak of the Pacific War, a copy of Xiangjiang occupied Xiangjiang, issued military coupons, replaced the Hong Kong dollar, and waited for the end of World War II. In order to avoid the complete collapse of the financial system of Xiangjiang, Huifeng Bank had to bite the bullet and admit those copies. The currency status of military bonds is exchanged for Hong Kong dollars.”

"The British Monopoly and Mergers Committee should be worried that the future of Hong Kong is still unclear, and Huifeng Bank may once again assume the heavy responsibility beyond the scope of commercial banks. If the Royal Bank of Scotland is really acquired, the uncertainty will be transmitted to the UK. The banking industry is now.”

Wei Li suddenly realized, "I said, why can't Chen Bi argue? He is almost vomiting blood when he is holding back. It turns out that he has really encountered a dead knot."

Gao Xian concluded leisurely: "Huifeng Bank's internationalization strategy must continue to be promoted. It is estimated that the throne of the quasi-central bank of Xiangjiang will have to be abandoned."

Wei Li looked Gao Xian quietly and tentatively said, "Sir Gao sees it so thoroughly, aren't you interested in that throne?"

Gao Xian laughed loudly and replied vaguely: "If you want to wear a crown, you must bear the weight!"

Seeing Sir Gao's unfathomable look, with the unruly Wei Li hidden in his bones, he touched his nose and stopped trying to figure out his intentions and went to work hard.
