Reborn Xiangjiang as a Tycoon

Chapter 436 Lin Baicheng’s proposal

No matter how good Zhang Yuliang said about Wheelock's prospects, Lin Baicheng knew very well that as long as Wheelock vigorously develops the shipping industry, Wheelock will definitely not get better in the next ten years. If the company's market value does not decline, it is already good.

However, Zhang Yuliang's constant persuasion made Lin Baicheng have other thoughts.

Lin Baicheng said to Zhang Yuliang: "Zhang Sheng, according to what you said, Wheelock's prospects are promising. The company's market value will definitely rise sharply in the future, and investment now will definitely yield generous returns. Isn't that right?"

"That's right!"

Although he is not 100% confident in his heart, it does not prevent Zhang Yuliang from being confident at the moment. Otherwise, he would not be confident himself, so how could he convince Lin Baicheng.

Lin Baicheng smiled: "Well, I have a suggestion, Zhang Sheng, how about you listen to it?"

"Lin Sheng, please speak."

Zhang Yuliang nodded.

Lin Baicheng said: "I can accept 5% of the additional issuance of shares and become a shareholder of Wheelock. However, Wheelock's market value must triple on the current basis in five years. I think three times in five years is not enough."

High, right?"

"this"

Zhang Yuliang did not answer immediately, but pondered. Three times the performance in five years is indeed not too high, but Wheelock's current market value of more than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars, tripling it would be about 8 billion Hong Kong dollars. This is not

A small amount.

"Lin Sheng, what if Wheelock's market value doesn't triple in five years?"

After thinking about it, Zhang Yuliang asked aloud. He was relatively confident that Wheelock's market value would triple in five years. After all, before the oil crisis broke out, Wheelock's market value was about twice what it is now.

Because of the oil crisis in 2008, the company's market value fell instead of rising. Five years later, it was just a matter of setting a new high for the company's market value.

"If Wheelock's market value does not triple in five years, then the Wheelock shares you hold, Mr. Zhang, must be resold to me at the current market value, allowing me to control this group company.

"

Lin Baicheng revealed his purpose. Only in this way would he be willing to invest in Wheelock even though he knew that Wheelock would suffer losses in the next few years, so that he could more easily take control of the company in the future. If

He has a greater chance of winning Wheelock, so Lin Baicheng is willing to give up this opportunity that may make Li Jiacheng fall into a trap. After all, his own development and making money are the most important thing.

"Lin Sheng, you want to win Wheelock? This is impossible!"

After listening to Lin Baicheng's words, Zhang Yuliang subconsciously refused. He himself wanted to get control of Wheelock, so how could he give it to others.

"Sheng Zhang, don't refuse in a hurry."

Upon seeing this, Lin Baicheng said: "After five years, if Wheelock cannot triple its market value under the control of John Ma and Zhang Sheng, then there must be something wrong with your operations. Since Wheelock

There is a problem in the operation of the company, so why bother to stay on this sinking ship? It is better to use the funds obtained from selling shares to run a company that is fully controlled by you, and develop the company how you want to develop it. That's so much better."

As he said that, seeing Zhang Yuliang lost in thought, Lin Baicheng continued: "Sheng Zhang, let me tell you something you don't like to hear. The real estate industry has been booming in recent years. When you sold Federal Real Estate to Wheelock, it can be said that you suffered a loss.

It’s big. If you hadn’t sold the federal real estate back then, with the current land and house prices, your company’s market value would have easily increased several times.”

"When I sold federal real estate to Wheelock, it was because I had to."

Zhang Yuliang said that he actually regretted it after the oil crisis caused Wheelock's market value to plummet. But at that time, he had already sold Federal Real Estate to Wheelock and held Wheelock's shares.

There was no use regretting the shares. It was impossible for him to sell the shares when Wheelock's market value plummeted only two years after selling the company to Wheelock. He could only hold on to it.

Fortunately, after the oil crisis passed, Hong Kong's economy recovered, housing prices rose, and Wheelock's market value recovered. Despite this, Zhang Yuliang sometimes regrets, because if his federal real estate had not been sold, it would have been lost without the drag of the shipping industry.

Under such circumstances, the company's market value will inevitably skyrocket. This can be seen by comparing it with other Chinese real estate companies that have surged.

"Zhang Sheng, in fact, it's not too late for you to sell your shares now."

Lin Baicheng said that if Zhang Yuliang is willing to sell his shares to him now, then he still doesn't mind spending more money to gain control of Wheelock. When he gets control of Wheelock, he can learn from Bao Yugang

Just abandon the ship and leave some of the ships. Although it will still affect the company's market value, vigorously developing the real estate industry will be enough to maintain a balance, and the shipping industry will also have great potential in the future.

"Lin Sheng was joking, I have no idea of ​​selling my shares now."

Zhang Yuliang immediately shook his head. He had endured the oil crisis, let alone now. But he obviously would not have thought that just this year, the second oil crisis would break out.

Lin Baicheng didn't force it, and he couldn't force it. He said: "Zhang Sheng, that's what I think. If you don't agree, then I have no choice but to ask you to find someone else."

Zhang Yuliang said: "Lin Sheng, how about you let me consider this matter?"

"Of course there is no problem."

Lin Baicheng nodded and continued: "But Zhang Sheng, I will leave Xiangjiang for the United States tonight, so you contact my assistant then and I will explain it to them."

"good."

Zhang Yuliang nodded in agreement, then smiled and said: "Lin Sheng, what big business are you going to the United States for this time?"

"It's just a small business, not a big business."

Lin Baicheng smiled and waved his hand. Tens of thousands of Xingyue consoles have been produced. He will go to the United States first and will be able to conduct preliminary publicity in a few days.

It just so happens that the summer vacation in the United States starts in May. Not long after the promotion started, students began to take a vacation. At that time, they had plenty of time, which would definitely have a positive impact on the sales of Xingyue consoles.

Zhang Yuliang shook his head in disbelief: "Lin Sheng is joking, you are doing big business, how can it be just a small business?"

Lin Baicheng smiled and did not explain.

After that, the two chatted for a while, but it was just small talk.

Lin Baicheng left Xiangjiang at around 11 o'clock that night. He explained some things before leaving Xiangjiang. He also told Cheng Yufeng and Liao Siren about Zhang Yuliang, asking them to contact them after Zhang Yuliang contacted them.

Contact him.

Having your own private jet makes international travel much more convenient. You can leave whenever you want, as long as you confirm the departure time with the airport, and you can also lie down and sleep on the plane at night, unlike on the ground.

What a difference.
