I want to be a giant of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 440 [Sought after! ] (3000 words!)

On Hong Kong Island in October, the autumn air is refreshing!
On October 10th, China Gas Company held a general meeting of shareholders;
At the meeting, a person who surprised all shareholders appeared - Wu Guangyao.

Wu Guangyao helped Wheelock last time to repel the Day & Ocean Co., which intends to hostilely acquire China Gas. This matter has been talked about in Hong Kong Island;

At that time, it was the peak period of the stock price of China Gas, and then encountered the stock market plummet caused by the turmoil on Hong Kong Island. It can be said that Wu Guangyao lost a lot of money in this move;
Even so, Wu Guangyao did not take the opportunity to propose to join the board of directors of China Gas and share the rights of Wheelock, even though this request is reasonable;

This kind of noble quality, as well as the personal friendship with Little Madden, made many business people on Hong Kong Island talk about it.

Wu Guangyao generously nodded and smiled to the shareholders, and all the shareholders also responded in a friendly manner;
Everyone looked at Little Madden's face, and the release of Little Madden was also calm and smiling;
It was speculated that Sha Danyao might have been invited by Little Madden to become a director of the board of China Gas;

This is a good thing. Wu Guangyao is good at management, and he will definitely put forward some constructive suggestions for China Gas.

At the beginning of the meeting, there was an episode that confused everyone, that is, Ma Deng offered to invite Wu Guangyao to be the chairman of China Gas, but Wu Guangyao refused again.

What does it mean?
Just when everyone was guessing, Ma Deng could not compete with Wu Guangyao, so he could only sit on the chair;

Little Ma Deng invited Wu Guangyao to sit next to him, and everyone settled down.

After counting the number of shareholders, Little Madden said: "Everyone, today I want to announce a good news! Mr. Wu will be the chairman of the board of directors of China Gas. He will lead our China Gas to grow and become a company based on Hong Kong Island and going global. Big company. Let us welcome Mr Goh Kuan Yew!"

Little Madden's words caused all the shareholders in the conference room to look at each other, but they still gave warm applause.

After the applause, some shareholders asked: "Mr. Wu, we would like to know how many shares of China Gas you own? Are you a major shareholder of China Gas?"

Wu Guangyao said: "I already own 35% of the shares of China Gas, and everyone has no objection to my major shareholder status!"

All the shareholders in the conference room listened and had no objections.

Then, Wu Guangyao presided over the meeting: "Thanks to Mr. Madden for the invitation, I have the honor to be the chairman of China Gas, a century-old company! First of all, I have a suggestion, that is to invite Mr. Madden to continue to contribute to the reputation of China Gas Chairman, and enjoys the lofty status of the Board of Directors."

Wu Guangyao's words have greatly benefited Ma Deng, and also made all the shareholders feel Wu Guangyao's quality of being kind to others.

Little Madden said: "Thank you Chairman Wu for trusting me, and I am willing to continue to contribute my strength to China Gas Company!"

Next, Wu Guangyao gave a speech on his first policy plan as Chairman of Towngas.

"My governance package is divided into two returns:
The first return, the return to customers and citizens.

We all know that gas is reserved for rich families on Hong Kong Island, and gas is only available in mansion areas;
I think that gas is convenient and clean, and healthy and safe, so we should actively bring gas to civilian residential areas.

First of all, we will lay a 3500 kPa gas pipeline in the main island and Kowloon area to achieve full coverage of Kowloon and the main island.

In addition to breakthroughs in infrastructure development, we must actively listen to the opinions of the public and improve gas equipment such as stoves;

Think about it, the housing area on Hong Kong Island is generally small, so are European and American stoves really suitable for us?
Therefore, we need to find the most suitable brand cooker for Hong Kong Island, such as going to Japan to find cooperation, or even participate in the design;
We also want to open a 'customer service center' and 'equipment display center' in various parts of Hong Kong Island to promote us and promote the application of gas. "

After Wu Guangyao's first 'return', he paused, indicating if anyone had any questions!

A small shareholder questioned: "According to Mr. Wu, Towngas may not be able to invest in such a large project even if it sells itself!"

A group of small shareholders laughed, everyone thought the same, Wu Guangyao's investment was really too big!

Wu Guangyao didn't care about such doubts, because not everyone has vision and courage.

Wu Guangyao said: "Then let's listen to it again and make an evaluation later!

Next, let me talk about the second return, the return to shareholders;

In fact, the first return I mentioned is also a return to shareholders;

Only when the user base is large, everyone's interests will be greater, and everyone should understand this truth.

In addition to increasing customers and expanding business, we can also choose to invest;

I plan to let Towngas invest in gas stations, oil storage and other businesses, and also participate in real estate investment and development;
Even to a certain extent, I will let China Gas enter the oil field, go to the world, and become an energy company
As for the question of which shareholder just now, I want to say that without funds, we can issue new shares to raise funds, directional increase shares, and loans;
In short, if a company does not think about development, then sooner or later the company will become food in the eyes of others and will be divided up sooner or later. "

After listening to Wu Guangyao's policy speech, everyone was shocked, and then there was warm applause!
With such a person to lead us, how can we not have confidence?

Wu Guangyao is in charge of the China Gas Company himself, so he is naturally ambitious!
Wu Guangyao naturally despises a mere piped gas company, but if he uses China Gas Company as a medium, Wu Guangyao can do many things, and he wants to build China Gas Company into an energy giant.

Therefore, when the board of directors of China Gas was convened, Wu Guangyao announced in the media that he was in charge of China Gas and put forward his own policy plan.

The next day, most newspapers on Hong Kong Island published the matter, which naturally aroused discussion among the citizens.

Citizens have commented one after another, and most of them are optimistic!

"Judging from Mr. Wu Guangyao's acquisition of CMB over the years, Mr. Wu Guangyao has not only served the general public, but also achieved better returns for shareholders; therefore, I am very grateful to Mr. Wu Guangyao for taking charge of China Gas and the governance plan he put forward. , is very promising!"

"Judging from the governance plan of Mr. Wu Guangyao, it is another governance plan that has the best of both worlds; it can allow more people on Hong Kong Island to use efficient and safe gas, and it can also bring benefits to shareholders, killing two birds with one stone!"

The public opinion on Hong Kong Island is all in support of Wu Guangyao's involvement in the public affairs company. Everyone thinks that Wu Guangyao is a rich man who truly considers the citizens of Hong Kong Island.

This kind of public opinion quickly fermented, and the Hong Kong Island media suddenly searched for Wu Guangyao's "good people and good deeds" and published them in newspapers.

The Sing Tao Daily reports:
Helping those in need, taking care of subordinates.

In 1967, turmoil broke out on Hong Kong Island, the property market and stock market plummeted, and the entire economic market of Hong Kong Island was in turmoil;
A middle-level manager surnamed Chen who has followed Mr. Wu Guangyao for many years lost all his money because of the failure of stock speculation;
Being forced into a position by a securities brokerage firm again, I was really desperate and wanted to cry but had no tears.

After Mr. Wu Guangyao found out about this, he called the company executives without waiting for the management to ask for help.

"Close the position for him!"

The executive couldn't help asking: "Help him at this time?"

What the executive meant was that this is not a time of peace and prosperity, and there are countless people who have failed in the face of adversity. Who can take care of it?
Mr. Wu Guangyao said: "At this time, if I don't help him, who else will help him?"

The executives are silent, and the boss is nostalgic!

Not to mention an old guy who has been with him for decades, even a young man who just worked as a clerk next to the boss has a similar crisis, but it is not he himself who 'fried up' the stock, but his family.

One day, the boss found that the clerk around him was out of his mind and frowning, so he took the initiative to ask questions;

The clerk expressed his distress. He said, "I want to help my family, but I don't have the ability, but I can't bear to see death."

So, the boss Wu Guangyao, who is generous and caring for his subordinates, quietly solved a difficult problem for the people around him.

"Ming Pao" also found a material:
On Hong Kong Island, if you ask all the contractors (contractors), which real estate company you are most willing to cooperate with, it must be Cheung Kong.

The construction site of Cheung Kong Industrial has never had the problem of arrears of project funds, and even found such a touching thing:

One day, during a meeting, the executives of Hong Kong Island No. [-] Construction mentioned to Wu Guangyao that the contractor who undertook one of the projects asked Hong Kong No. [-] Construction to pay a supplementary project payment, but Hong Kong No. [-] Construction refused;

The reason for the refusal was that the price of the construction project was clearly written in the contract. How could it be possible to increase the price after the completion of the project?

Mr. Wu Guangyao asked curiously: "Why did the judge go back on his word? He must have a reason, right?"

An executive of Hong Kong Island One Construction said: "Yes, he said that when he won the bid, he made a mistake in his calculations; he didn't realize that he had made a loss-making business until the project was completed."

The executive added: "The contract is signed in black and white, and it is guaranteed by law. Hong Kong Island First Construction can completely ignore it!"

Mr. Wu Guangyao said to the executives earnestly: "When the market is good, everyone makes money, but he is the only one who suffers. It is pitiful. The law is nothing more than human feelings, and the judge is our long-term partner. Anyway, We have made money from this project, so let’s give him back the money, and everyone is happy!”

A group of media seemed to have found a good news material, and they all inquired about Wu Guangyao's "good deeds, good deeds" and then reported them.

And the citizens are particularly interested in this kind of thing these days!
As a result, for a period of time, Wu Guangyao became the target of Hong Kong media.

Seeing that this kind of thing was getting worse and worse, Wu Guangyao hurriedly recruited Yang Kang and asked him to say hello to various newspaper offices!
Enough is enough!
If I continue like this, I will mold myself into a 'saint'. What should I do if I make some mistakes in the future?
