Reborn Tycoon Rise
Chapter 209 Battle for Hutchison Whampoa (18)
Evergrande Company:
"Xu Sheng, Richard is here!" Wang Liming brought a white man and introduced him to Xu Zhidao.
"Please sit down," Xu Zhi said.
Richard sat on the sofa opposite Xu Zhi and said, "Thank you Xu Sheng!"
Xu Zhi asked: "Mr. Richard, what's going on with Xinong Group?"
"Xu Sheng, just call me Richard." Richard said: "Actually, when Xu Sheng you just announced the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa, Wei Li started to prepare to contact overseas consortiums, but some of Hutchison Whampoa's current problems are still There were many difficulties. At that time, if you wanted to obtain a stock share that could compete with you or Li Jiacheng, you would need hundreds of millions of dollars in funds, and none of Wei Li's people could be found.
Later, he sought to obtain loans from foreign banks to allow him to acquire Hutchison Whampoa shares, but in the end he was unsuccessful. "
Xu Zhi asked: "Then why is this Xinong Group willing to invest?"
Richard said: "I don't know either. We had made a list of people who might be willing to invest in Hutchison Whampoa, but there was no Wesfarmers Group at all. I wonder how he got in touch with this?"
Xu Zhi frowned and thought for a while and then asked: "Did Wei Li meet anyone some time ago?"
Richard thought for a while and said: "It's basically normal. If it's suspicious, HSBC Shen Bi once asked Weili to go. I asked Weili later, but he didn't want to say much."
"Shen Bi." Xu Zhimo looked at her twice and said, "When did they meet?"
Richard said: "About October 6th."
"Sure enough, before I proposed to raise the stock price." Xu Zhi also understood a little, so he said, "Okay, thank you Richard!"
Richard nodded and said, "It's nothing, as long as Xu Sheng remembers what he promised me."
Xu Zhi smiled and said: "No problem!"
The deal between Richard and Xu Zhi is very simple. During this period, he will do his best to help Xu Zhi obtain the information he needs to know. After Xu Zhi takes control of Hutchison, Richard will serve as the new boss.
Richard is currently the second-in-command of the entire Hutchison Whampoa Group, second only to Wei Li. In later generations, after Lao Li obtained more than 40% of the stock, Wei Li resigned and left to start his own business, and Richard took over the next position of chief executive.
Both of these two people are not bad in terms of ability. They can reach the top of such a large company by their own abilities. No one is a vegetarian. The difference is that Wei Li is too arrogant. Even Shen Bi can't tolerate him, and Li Although Chad also has ambitions and wants to be in charge of Hutchison Whampoa alone and develop the company according to his own ideas, but thinking about it carefully, this is also a normal phenomenon. How could he climb to such a high position without ambition.
Before there is enough self-built team, stabilizing Hutchison Whampoa will definitely require the original team. Originally, as long as Wei Li did not go too far, Xu Zhi was willing to turn a blind eye, but now that they have fallen out, Li Cha can be arranged De replaced him, although this person should not be trusted lightly, but as long as he can maintain the stability of Hutchison, it is enough for the time being.
After Richard left, Wang Liming came in and said: "Xu Sheng, I arranged for people to investigate all the senior executives of Xinong Group and found that one of the directors and Shen Bi were college classmates. It is not clear what their relationship is. I have arranged for people to go to that university to investigate, but it is so old that it will probably take some time to find out."
"No need." Xu Zhi said with a smile: "We are not the police investigating the case. We still need to find some evidence. This relationship is enough."
"Yes." Wang Liming nodded and said: "It seems that this situation was already set up when Li Jiacheng suggested that we work with him to sell Hutchison stocks and cash out together. As a result, both of us cashed out in large quantities, resulting in that even if we acquired Li Jiacheng After the acquisition of shares, it is less than 33.4%. We will wait until the nominal takeover war is over and the stock price returns to normal, and then use a foreign investment to dilute our shares."
Xu Zhidao: "Where did the foreign capital come from? It is estimated that the Xinong Group is only in name. The funds are probably Li Jiacheng's cash from Hutchison Whampoa, or HSBC's money. As long as the new major shareholder takes over, they and Wei If I join forces with the managers, I can slowly dilute my shares. I only need to wait a few years and then I can sell my shares to Li Jiacheng. In a complete circle, Li Jiacheng can take over Hutchison Whampoa again. Not only that, he has been operating with us before. He also made a lot of money from Hutchison Whampoa stocks!"
Wang Liming nodded and said: "It is possible, but this kind of layout requires Wei Li's cooperation. He is not at odds with HSBC and Li Jiacheng. Why did he suddenly agree to them? You know, we agreed and let him continue to do Hutchison Whampoa. Senior class?"
Xu Zhidao: "There is no reason, it just depends on whether the benefits are enough. Didn't Richard also join us? Do you think he is sincere? Even if we control Hutchison in the future, he will still think the same as Wei Li Ways to get rid of us as the major shareholder.
Now, for Richard, it doesn't matter who can take over Hutchison Whampoa. What matters is that if he wants to achieve his goal, he must stand opposite Wei Li's chosen side. Otherwise, if Wei Li succeeds, he will never win. Opportunity. "
Wang Liming said: "Then what should we do now? Even if we do not acquire Hutchison Whampoa, we must make the necessary preparations."
Xu Zhidao: "Don't worry, this kind of thing must be approved by the board of directors first. When it's the turn of the shareholders' meeting, the stock price has been so high some time ago, and many takers bought it at a high price. They will not agree to this price. I propose a comprehensive Acquisitions are just a temporary measure."
The value of Hutchison Whampoa will be high in the future, but as long as this kind of traditional enterprise has a controlling stake, there is no need to spend money on privatization. Moreover, going public is also a channel to unite various consortiums and forces. It can be a monopoly in any industry. Under normal circumstances, it will Choked to death.
Wang Liming said: "I understand. Goldman Sachs has already provided a loan line of US$500 million. Do you want to send it to Hutchison Whampoa first?"
It is almost the end of the year, and the price of international gold has reached as high as US$650 an ounce. Xu Zhi has longed a total of US$1.25 billion in gold at a price of almost US$300. Because the time is relatively long and the interest is high, but even if he starts to cash out now, The net profit is not less than 1 billion US dollars. In fact, part of the funds for the acquisition of SITC Bank were loans from Goldman Sachs. It is easy to provide a loan limit certificate of 500 million US dollars!
Xu Zhi shook his head and said, "No, please make an appointment with Madden from Kadoorie and Wheelock for me. I want to talk to them in person."
Wang Liming said: "Would you like to make an appointment together? These two are both British, so we'd better defeat them one by one!"
Xu Zhi shook his head and said: "No, just make an appointment together. What about the British? Shen Bi sold Hutchison to Li Jiacheng. As long as the benefits are sufficient, these people can rebel immediately."
Wang Liming smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go right away."
