Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

Lin Kaifeng said slowly: "The one million and the remaining 5% of the shares are my goodwill to you and the best choice for your Li family."

"With 5% of the shares in your hand, you can get a certain amount of dividends every year. One million dollars can allow you to stay at home and raise flowers and birds without having to worry about the intrigues and disputes in the business world."

To borrow a phrase from Li Yunhe, Hong Kong City is a capitalist society with a highly developed economy.

Capitalist society only cares about money, not emotions.

Not only do banks have the habit of giving out umbrellas when it's sunny and taking them away when it rains, but entrepreneurs of all sizes are also like this.

There are more than 100 countries and regions in the world, except for state-owned banks that are backed by the state.

No matter whether it is a big bank, a small bank, a multinational bank or a private bank.

Once there is news that is unfavorable to their funds, they will immediately face a bank run.

For capital banks, a bank run is tantamount to a catastrophe.

Hong Kong media and Western media are of the same lineage. In order to increase sales and attract attention, they will report all kinds of news first.

They simply don't care about the news and how many companies will go bankrupt and how many people will lose their jobs.

It is no secret that Lee Bank is short of liquidity.

The reason why there has not been a bank run is partly related to the market reputation of Li's Bank.

The bank established by the Li family has gone through sixty years and still has some reputation in the local area of ​​Hong Kong City.

At this moment, the grassroots people are just watching.

Will Li’s Bank eventually go bankrupt and can it obtain external aid funds?

Vaguely sensing Lin Kaifeng's determination to win, Li Yunhe became anxious again.

Intelligence investigation is not exclusive to the military field.

As a qualified businessman, you must also have the ability to know yourself and your opponent.

Not long after receiving the invitation, Li Yunhe sent someone to check the details of the Northern Company.

I learned that this company is from the mainland.

There are many branches of mainland enterprises in Hong Kong, all of which have state-owned backgrounds.

Only the Northern Machinery Company has no state-owned background and is a branch of a mainland joint-stock enterprise.

The lack of state-owned capital background does not guarantee that Lin Kaifeng is really an ordinary little person.

The mainland's reform has been going on for several years, and it is puzzling that a company that has changed from a state-owned enterprise to a joint-stock enterprise would go to a port city to set up a branch.

In addition, Lin Kaifeng looked determined to win and had Li Yunhe in his grasp.

Li Yunhe's mentality gradually became uneasy.

Seeing this, Wang Lei said politely: "Mr. Li, you can tell me what you think now. I think Brother Lin will respect your conditions as much as possible if conditions permit."

"300 million Hong Kong dollars."

Li Yunhe held up three fingers and said, "Mr. Lin, I don't care where you come from or if you have someone backing you up. In short, if you want to acquire 95% of the shares of Li's Bank, you must come up with no less than million Hong Kong dollars. If you pay even a penny less, there's no way we can continue the discussion."

Lin Kaifeng said: "If you keep saying this, please forgive me for being rude."

"I want to give you 300 million for acquisition funds, and you have to bear the bank's possible run. Do you think this is fair to me?"

"Your bank is indeed a well-known, established enterprise in Hong Kong. But then again, there are still a few small and medium-sized banks that are comparable in strength to your Li Bank."

"The development of these small and medium-sized banks is relatively stable at this stage. There have been no major decision-making mistakes and no bad news. Why don't I choose to buy shares of their banks for the same 300 million Hong Kong dollars, but choose to buy your Li's Bank, a mess full of holes?"

“Is it because your bank is stronger than theirs, or is it because my child has more money and needs to take the initiative to waste it?”

"One million will allow your Li family to continue to live a good life. With a 5% dividend every year, as long as your descendants behave themselves and don't do anything immoral and squander money, you can live a more affluent life than most people."

"Mr. Li, you'd better think about it carefully."

"It's getting late. Since you have something to do, we won't stay any longer. Goodbye."

After leaving a few words, Lin Kaifeng gave Wang Lei a look as if he was leaving.

He turned around and left the teahouse without hesitation.

Wang Lei followed closely behind.

"Brother Lin, are your words too harsh?"

Wang Lei said kindly: "Mr. Li is a man of the old school. He loves face the most. What you said just now didn't give him any face at all. If he sells the bank to someone else, I'm afraid..."

"Will not."

Lin Kaifeng continued, "All the rich people who want to acquire Li's Bank are fools. It is impossible for them to give Li Yunhe a large amount of equity acquisition funds and withstand the bank run at the same time."

The day after meeting Li Yunhe, Chen Ping handed the list to Lin Kaifeng.

There are many potential competitors interested in acquiring Lee Bank.

There are about twenty people.

There are both local wealthy people and large and prestigious companies.

None of them are unknown minor characters.

"There are quite a few competitors eyeing the fat piece of meat of Lee's Bank."

Lin Kaifeng was not surprised by the competition among many heroes.

Only an honest person like Wang Lei would think that acquiring a bank would not help the parent company.

A truly smart person.

They are all planning to buy banks and accumulate large amounts of funds.

Chen Ping said, "Boss, since Li Yunhe is not willing to agree easily, should we add fuel to the fire?"

Lin Kaifeng picked up the list on the desk and shook it with two fingers.

"Do you think the twenty or so people on the list wouldn't think of this?"

"Someone will come out to be the bad guy soon, so why should we do this?"

"Be patient and wait. In the next few days, someone will surely come out and stir up trouble, causing a run on the bank and forcing Li Yunhe to the edge of the cliff. Then, they will swallow this big piece of fat meat at the lowest cost."

Chen Ping thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "Boss, why are you so sure that someone will do it for us soon?"

"It's simple. There are more and more people who want to acquire Li's Bank, including me. The number of individuals and companies on the list has reached 26. If someone proposes conditions that satisfy Li Yunhe's appetite, the big piece of fat that countless people are eyeing may fall into someone else's rice bowl."

"If we don't take action now, are we going to wait for the duck in our mouth to fly away?"

Lin Kaifeng said with a firm tone.

"Li Yunhe will definitely encounter a bank run this week. Starting today, buy me all the local newspapers, one per day. I need to get the news first."
