Chapter eight hundred and sixty-eight I learn Liu Bei as a bird
Chapter 868: I’m imitating Liu Bei
"By the way, Director Lin, what are you going to do now?" Bao Peili is not in as good a mood as Lin Chiling. She is worried about what actions the British board of directors will take to deal with Lin Feng. If Standard Chartered Bank ends up in chaos.
, then even if Lin Feng acquired it, it would be in vain. This time, Lin Feng invested a total of 4.805 billion US dollars to acquire the 26.38% stake in Standard Chartered Bank he owned, which almost exhausted Lin Feng’s personal liquidity (Lin Feng currently still has
Holding US$1.795 billion in cash).
If Standard Chartered Bank ends up in chaos, then not only will Lam Fung’s idea of borrowing money from Standard Chartered Bank to combat capital risks not be realized, I am afraid that the principal of US$4.805 billion will also be gone. Don’t forget, there is too much
Many banks are coveting Standard Chartered Bank's business in Southeast Asia. If Standard Chartered Bank is in chaos, these companies will be very happy. Especially since there are so many directors of Standard Chartered Bank who are obstructing it.
What to do?——Lin Feng smiled after hearing this.
"Zhiling, please help me announce to the public that I, Lin Feng, have successfully controlled the British Standard Chartered Bank. At the same time, we announced that a press conference will be held in three days. I want to officially announce that I, Lin Feng, control the Standard Chartered Bank!" Lin Fengzhi stood up with great satisfaction.
Standing by the window, looking at the unobstructed view of downtown London, ambition burst into Lin Feng's chest.
The future is mine!
At this time, the news that Lam Fung controlled Standard Chartered Bank had begun to spread like wildfire and was known to the outside world. When they first heard the news, everyone did not believe it. They absolutely did not believe that Lam Fung would control Standard Chartered Bank, they absolutely did not believe it.
This is unbelievable, Lin Feng, how could a Chinese control Standard Chartered Bank, an old British bank? And the action was so fast and violent. But the exact information obtained from the directors of Standard Chartered Bank has repeatedly proved that this news is absolutely
That's right, Lam Feng does control Standard Chartered Bank. He became the first Chinese to own a personal bank!
When the news was confirmed, everyone who heard the news was shocked on the inside and tender on the outside, as if they had swallowed a duck egg in one bite. Originally, the outside world was still analyzing that Lam Feng's acquisition of 14.99% of the shares of Standard Chartered Bank held by Qiu Deba was just
In order to facilitate future financing, Lin Feng unexpectedly completed the controlling stake in Standard Chartered Bank in an instant and within a few days.
The United States' "USA Today" made a major report on this matter on the grounds of "China Miracle". The report continued to explain how miraculous it was that Lin Feng completed the acquisition, although it is not yet known what Lin Feng actually did.
How to complete the acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank, but USA Today's evaluation of Lin Feng is several levels higher.
In the United States, what has always been emphasized is capital operation, and what everyone plays is financial skills. They do not agree with Lin Feng's vision and guidance in the gaming industry in the past. Now that Lin Feng has acquired Standard Chartered Bank, this is standard capital operation, which is even more serious.
It suits American tastes. Naturally, its evaluation has been rising all the time. Moreover, it is a miracle that a Chinese owns a private bank or an international bank.
The Wall Street Times also reported this matter with "China's Richest Man Creates Another Miracle" (In the hearts of Americans, Americans are still indignant about Lin Feng becoming the world's richest man, so they often make him China's richest man instead of directly becoming the world's richest man.
). In the article, in addition to expressing admiration for Lam Feng's method of acquiring Standard Chartered Bank, he also predicted where Lam Feng will develop in the future after acquiring Standard Chartered Bank. It is to continue to develop his gaming-entertainment-sports business.
Or should we completely enter the financial industry with high profits and high risks?
Compared to the excitement and relatively neutral coverage of this matter by the American media, the British side was left with a bitter taste.
As the most authoritative newspaper in the UK, The Times used the title "What does Lin Feng want?" for this matter. In the article, The Times did not mention Lin Feng's move to acquire Standard Chartered Bank, but only criticized a bank.
The old bank with a history of 150 years expressed regret at being acquired by foreign capital. At the same time, he expressed how Lam Fung was prepared to deal with the situation of major directors leaving. He also put forward various hypotheses for this, and finally concluded that if Lam Feng cannot properly handle this situation, Standard Chartered will
The bank's glorious history of more than 150 years may come to an end at the hands of Lin Feng.
Compared with the neutrality and objectivity of The Times, The Sun, a magazine famous for its three-page girl, actually opened several pages to talk about this matter. However, in the article, The Sun heavily criticized and satirized Lin Feng.
, ridiculing Lin Feng's acquisition as the most despicable, shameless and filthy acquisition in history. He also criticized Lin Feng for driving away many company veterans after the acquisition, which was the most impersonal and cold-blooded behavior. And
In the article, he called on many employees of Standard Chartered Bank to leave Standard Chartered Bank and not work for a cold-blooded, ruthless, sinister and cunning boss like Lin Feng.
"Boss, you don't have to pay attention to what is written in the newspaper. Just treat it as bullshit!" Lin Chiling gently massaged Lin Feng's shoulders. Since the two had a relationship, although they have not had sex again, when no one is around, Lin Chiling and
Lin Feng is obviously closer to each other and more affectionate.
Lin Feng gently patted Lin Chiling's jade hand and smiled faintly. Although "The Sun" had cursed Lin Feng several times before, making Lin Feng very angry. He often had the urge to burn "The Sun", but this time for "The Sun"
Lin Feng not only ignored the comments in The Sun, but also praised them greatly. He wished that the words in The Sun could be more pungent.
"Boss, are you okay?" Lin Chiling felt Lin Feng's strange smile and asked with concern because she was afraid that Lin Feng would be confused by the comments in "The Sun".
"It's okay! I'm just happy!" Lin Feng smiled meaningfully, then put down the "Sun", opened "Baidu", and began to search for relevant domestic reports.
Compared with the mood of the American media watching the show and the frustration and helplessness of the British media, the Chinese media expressed a burst of admiration. They believed that Lin Feng's move enhanced the prestige of the people of the country and strengthened the ambition of the people of the country.
"Global Times" claimed that Lam Fung's acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank not only means that the Chinese can also show their prominence on the world stage and acquire major companies, but also means that from now on, the Chinese will truly have the right to issue Hong Kong dollars.
The significance of Lam Feng's move is equivalent to the "Hong Kong return" in the financial world.
"Reference News" stated that - Lam Fung's acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank was not only a personal victory for Lam Feng, but also a victory for all Chinese people. Back then, the British opened the door of China with guns, and now Lam Feng knocks on the door of the UK with capital. 163
After that, the Chinese finally truly avenged the shame of their ancestors.
The jubilation among many media also made this matter even more popular in China. On the Internet, many netizens even cheered and congratulated Lam Feng on his acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank.
Netizen "↘caer☆" said - Fuck the experts. At first, they said that Lam Feng could only get a non-irritating position. Now look, Lam Feng controls Standard Chartered Bank and becomes the chairman. I really don't know this.
Bullshit experts, what would you think when you see Lin Feng becoming the chairman of Standard Chartered Bank?
Netizen "Heartbroken-Mengxing" said - Haha, it's so cool! Lam Feng acquired Standard Chartered Bank and took back (half) the right to issue Hong Kong dollars. It's so cool. I hope Lam Feng can create more miracles for us in the future, so that
The whole world knows that we Chinese people cannot be bullied or humiliated! Our Chinese nation is the strongest nation in the world!
...
In response to the heated discussion and pursuit of many netizens, some unknown experts jumped out again and called out that although Lin Feng controls the shares of Standard Chartered Bank, it does not mean that Lin Feng can successfully take over Standard Chartered Bank. Many experts also criticized Lin Feng
It was the most unwise act of Feng to drive away many directors of Standard Chartered Bank at the beginning of the acquisition. Many experts even called on Lin Feng to invite these directors back. They also mentioned the incident of Liu Bei's three visits to the thatched cottage to motivate Lin Feng.
Many netizens sneered at the opinions of many experts.
Netizen "Jiugongshen" said - these bullying British directors just left. They asked Lin Feng to invite them. Isn't this asking for boredom! Just left, what's the big deal! These old and immortal British directors
The director also asked Lin Feng to learn from Liu Bei and visit the thatched cottage three times! Bah!
When Lin Feng heard the speeches of these experts, he only said one sentence - I want to learn from Liu Bei!
Lin Feng's slightly vulgar speech was undoubtedly supported by most netizens. Many netizens even proposed that Lin Feng learn from Liu Bei's experts who visited the thatched cottage three times. They scolded him with disgrace and greeted all his maternal relatives. These experts were so angry that they almost gave up their hands.
Ban Brick is looking for someone to fight for.
And amid this commotion, the British directors finally took action.
Immediately, these British directors announced that they would never return to Standard Chartered Bank as long as Lin Feng was still at Standard Chartered Bank. These remarks directly caused Standard Chartered Bank's shares, which were originally blooming like sesame seeds, to plummet.
From the original price of 121 Hong Kong dollars, it immediately fell to 118 Hong Kong dollars.
Subsequently, these British directors also used their personal connections to get many Standard Chartered Bank customers to announce that they would suspend cooperation with Standard Chartered Bank when Standard Chartered Bank returned to normal. This included many big-name companies in Asia, such as the Huo family in Hong Kong.
Subsidiary companies, etc. This also directly caused the stock price of Standard Chartered Bank to fall all the way to HK$108.
However, what really caused Standard Chartered Bank to suffer a heavy setback was the resignation of a large number of Standard Chartered Bank employees following the appeals of the British directors and the Sun, resulting in a large vacuum in Standard Chartered Bank's personnel. This undoubtedly had a great impact on Standard Chartered Bank.
Fatal. In the end, before Lam Feng held a press conference, Standard Chartered Bank's stock price fell all the way to HK$89! In just two days, the stock price fell from its peak of HK$121 to HK$89, a drop of 27%.
Chapter completed!
