Chapter 655 The overall situation has been decided to plan ahead

"Alas, it is really difficult for us in Xiangjiang to find literary masters like Ji Xianlin and Lin Qingxuan!" Mr. Jin said with emotion on the plane back.

"Yes, even though some people say some low-spirited things, when they say it, they will appear so high-minded, free and easy, and their laughter, anger and curses are all nonsense!" Zhao Hong also said with emotion.

said.

"These masters are really interesting. It's a pleasure to listen to them talk." Qingxia also said with a smile.

Although she didn't speak much during the gathering today, she was very happy in her heart. Seeing her man communicating easily with the master in her mind, she felt that this made her more excited and happy than doing something.

The three of them chatted for a while on the plane. When they arrived in Xiangjiang, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

Zhao Hong returned to the company to learn about today's meeting of shareholders at Standard Chartered.

"I immediately fired Ryan Henderson from his position as Standard Chartered Supervisor as soon as I arrived. The bank is currently in chaos, and it is expected to take half a month to return to normal. The main reason is that we are still a little short of talents in the bank, and we cannot be reckless.

Transfer the employees of Meisheng Bank to work here."

"Fortunately, we negotiated with President Xiao before and found several high-level executives at the Bank of China through mining..."

In my sister's office, she excitedly recounted everything about her trip to Standard Chartered this morning.

It can be said that Ryan Henderson was beaten to a pulp, but his influence is really everywhere in Standard Chartered. If DreamWorks didn't hold more than half of the shares, they would definitely not be able to defeat him.

After all, Standard Chartered originally belonged to other people's ancestral businesses, and the establishment of Standard Chartered was started by their ancestors.

I heard from my sister that when it was announced that Ryan Henderson was resigning, more than half of the senior executives resigned, and one-third of the middle managers resigned. In this case, the bank was almost paralyzed.

At present, we can only make some adjustments and maintain the status quo. Just by looking at his resignation, we can see the terrifying influence of Ryan Henderson. Such people will be eliminated sooner or later. The longer they stay at Standard Chartered, the more dangerous they will be. If something happens,

A moth is not good.

It's better to have long-term pain than short-term pain, and it's a one-size-fits-all experience.

This is a matter that is handled by the management, and Standard Chartered's acquisition of other stocks has not stopped. The company directly compulsorily acquired 110% of the market value before the acquisition.

Many shareholders did not directly refuse this. It was really conscientious that DreamWorks could acquire it at such a price, which reassured many worried shareholders.

In fact, many shareholders are now foreign shareholders, with the Ryan Henderson family accounting for the majority. As for the stock market, only about 10% of the shares are outstanding.

It is expected to take several days to complete the entire acquisition, which is expected to cost the bank about $9.5 billion.

Fortunately, it is still two years early. If Standard Chartered has achieved results in mainland banks, it will not be as simple as this little money.

Of the 9.5 billion U.S. dollars, 2 billion U.S. dollars are Bank of China's own money, while the other 7.5 billion U.S. dollars are lent by Meisheng to Bank of China. Fortunately, Meisheng is now rich and has benefited far more than this in Japan, and

It's all cash flow.

It can be said that it is difficult for HSBC to come up with so much money.

It is said that when the HSBC Taipanpu guard learned that DreamWorks had acquired Standard Chartered, he was in a very bad mood. This incident made him feel isolated and helpless.

On the night when DreamWorks announced that it had held 60% of Standard Chartered's shares, he directly made an appointment with Ryan Henderson. The purpose was to stabilize Ryan Henderson.

"Ryan, if DreamWorks lets you continue to be a bank executive, you must not refuse. I will support you. Standard Chartered will always belong to us British Standard Chartered..."

Pu Weishi just wants someone within Standard Chartered to stir up trouble. It would be best if Standard Chartered fails to recover, and then he, HSBC, can sit back and relax.

He is now a bit complaining about his predecessor, Shen Bi. If Shen Bi had not done anything, how could Meisheng have grown and prospered? In his current term, it is really difficult to manage.

It's not that he didn't want to use off-market moves for this Standard Chartered acquisition, but it was a pity that it was a little late. If it was okay when DreamWorks' shareholding was less than 51%, now it is no longer possible.

Ryan Henderson sneered at Pu Weishi's words. He knew the situation between Standard Chartered and HSBC. They had been enemies for hundreds of years.

Both sides want to devour each other.

It was just that Mei Sheng was approaching menacingly, so they had the vague idea of ​​joining forces to fight against the enemy. It was only a superficial alliance.

But now I have to rely on the other party. No matter what they say is true or false, it is a life-saving straw, so it is better to grasp it.

But their wishes were all in vain. The next day when Zhao Hong directly announced that Ryan Henderson would be fired from all positions, his head was buzzing.

They did not use him to stabilize the situation, and then weakened his power step by step, steadily controlling Standard Chartered for two or three years.

It's a pity that their wishful thinking was wrong. This may still be the case if DreamWorks alone acquires it, but it will be handed over to Bank of China in a short time. People like Ryan Henderson are a cancer for the bank, or are they? It is better to clear it as soon as possible.

Besides, Standard Chartered is currently not developing as well as HSBC. One reason is that their headquarters is in England, and another reason is that it is a family-owned bank with a lot of aunts and uncles living around. These unstable factors must also be eliminated. Lose.

After announcing the dismissal of Ryan Henderson from his position as chief executive, I also announced that I would move the Standard Chartered headquarters to Hong Kong. This matter needs to be done quickly!

We strive to complete this matter within three months, and we also ask DreamWorks Shipping Company to cooperate with us.

It is said that this time DreamWorks' acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank caused a huge response in the UK. Many people could not accept the acquisition of a well-known bank in their country by foreign capital, and a small number of people even held demonstrations.

Fortunately, Zhao Hong had already thought of such a reaction, and had done a good job in public relations with the officials of the relevant departments before doing so. After this operation, more than 100 million US dollars disappeared.

These are all counted towards the acquisition of Standard Chartered. President Xiao also expressed his understanding of this situation and took out this loan.

In this way, everything at Standard Chartered has stabilized, and the acquisition has reached its final stage.

As long as the Standard Chartered headquarters moves to Hong Kong, DreamWorks will transfer it to Bank of China.

Zhao Hong was relieved when he heard his elder sister's words. He decided this matter on the fly at the beginning, and he was not prepared for many things.

Fortunately, the capital is relatively abundant, and the calculations are done mentally and unintentionally, so this kind of thing can be completed smoothly.

In fact, just after the completion of the New Year, the company already held 51% of the shares of Standard Chartered. However, in order not to cause turmoil, especially the dispute with the British government, DreamWorks continued to make acquisitions while also doing some public relations for the British government.

, this acquisition was completed so safely.

"Today I took a look at Standard Chartered's financial assets and found that its market value is a bit undervalued. The main reason is that their headquarters is not in Hong Kong, and many of their assets are outside Hong Kong. Therefore, many ordinary investors cannot see how powerful Standard Chartered is."

The elder sister said with emotion at the end.

"Haha, wouldn't it be better this way? Use less money if you can." Zhao Hong said with a smile.

He also knew another reason, which was that the head of Standard Chartered held too few shares, which could easily cause disputes among others and make the stock market unstable. Although this was an opportunity for many investors, it was also a disaster.

Therefore, most of them are unwilling to hold such shares.

"Although this time is very satisfying, we don't seem to get many benefits." The old lady said a little reluctantly.

"Haha, people can't be too greedy. It's not necessarily a good thing that Standard Chartered is in our hands. I feel that the atmosphere is very uncomfortable these days. HSBC is starting to faintly argue with us. Even the Hong Kong government's attitude towards us is...

It’s a lot lighter…”

Zhao Hong told the current situation. In fact, there was another reason in his mind that he didn't say out loud. That was that the government didn't necessarily like their family being the only one in power. This was the most critical reason.
Chapter completed!
