The place where old Kadoorie and Abe Adler took Jing Gao went was not a secret room inside the Bank of China Building.
Doing this will only anger Jing Gao. Play a secret society, meet in secret, and find out who is begging whom? Who has the advantage?
Phoenix Group’s frenzied sweeps have shifted the shareholding structure of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and further strengthened its control. This is because the Financial Secretary itself has the right to nominate six directors, and the chief executive must generally follow relevant principles.
Hence, the room for capital manipulation is already very small. Now with the addition of a director seat of Phoenix Group, the room for capital's maneuvering will be even smaller.
In other words, in the future, it may not be that easy for companies that want to raise money in Hong Kong stocks. Moreover, they are likely to be watched by the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Who is Jing Gao of the Phoenix Group? Some of his
Speeches and opinions have long been placed on the desks of the heads of various companies. It is impossible for Phoenix Group, an upstart on the Internet, to be as big as it is and not to collect information about it if others don't pay attention to it.
Therefore, the meeting place was in the corner of the banquet hall on the 70th floor. Jing Gao came over with Wu Jingshu and Gu Xixi. Several foreigners were already waiting here. Standing in the middle was a middle-aged white man.
Old Kadoorie introduced: "This is Mr. Lenny Mellon. He is the third generation member of the Mellon family. He is currently a director of Mellon Bank."
Lanny Mellon smiled and shook hands with Jing Gao, "Hello, Mr. Jing. Nice to meet you."
Jing Gao looked at the tall white man in front of him, smiled and nodded. Then Kadoorie Lao introduced the heads of Goldman Sachs, BlackRock Capital, HSBC, and Swire Group in the Asia-Pacific region.
In fact, the biggest obstacle to Uber’s listing in Hong Kong this time as AB shares is probably the people in front of it.
Li Huanggua just jumped out to find trouble. This is not to say that the old fox Li Huanggua is not qualified. It is that the two parties already have grievances and entangled interests. And he has calculated it accurately. But he did not expect the Phoenix Group to be so strong.
That's all, catch him and give him a hard hammer.
Lanny Mellon smiled and raised his glass, "Mr. Jing, congratulations to Uber for passing the review of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and its upcoming listing. Congratulations to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange for passing the reform of AB shares and further consolidating its position as a financial center."
Jing Gao didn't answer his words at all. When Professor Shen was chatting, he mentioned to him an American characteristic: that is, a half bottle of water sloshes more than a full bottle of water. This is called: self-confidence in American culture. In the early days of the United States
When it was not the number one powerful country, this was often called "reckless" and "rude" by its European ancestors.
Can you people really stop the reform of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange? You think too highly of yourselves. For the CEOs or heads of your various groups and families, this congratulation would only be of such weight.
What year AD do you think it is now?
"Mr. Mellon, I was traveling in the United States some time ago. I heard that during the Great Depression in the early 20th century, there was a children's song in the United States: Mellon blew the whistle, Hoover sounded the death knell. Wall Street sent out a signal, and the United States rushed to hell!
Your family does have a long history."
Wu Jingshu, who is the translator for Jing Gao, is a female CEO who is already well-known in the financial market of Hong Kong Island. Some people are already ranking her on a Hong Kong Island women's rights list. It is said that she can be ranked among the top 20 on Hong Kong Island.
Lanny Mellon's face was a little ugly. He could roughly hear the sarcasm in Jing Gao's words.
No matter how conspiracy theories around the world speculate on the power of the Rothschilds, Morgans, and Rockefellers, as a member of the top wealthy circles with blue blood, he knows very well that the established families
All are already in decline.
The Rothschild family's bank is in France, and it is also doing business with foreign countries. A country cannot maintain its strength for hundreds of years. Why would anyone believe that the Rothschild family, which made its fortune during the Napoleonic Wars in Europe, can maintain its strength for as long as
21st century?
Even Wall Street was hit hard in the 2008 financial crisis. In the past ten years, Wall Street capital’s voice in the country has declined increasingly. Instead, the interests of large companies represent national interests!
At that time, there was a list of the top ten richest families in the United States. The Mellon family was also among them. The core business of the Mellon family was the Mellon Bank. But the question is, how high does the Mellon Bank rank in the United States today?
Just like HSBC, a long-established British bank, but most of its profit sources come from the Asia-Pacific region. You must know that London, UK, is one of the European financial centers, why can't you make money there?
It’s very simple, they are no longer at the center of power!
When Old Kadoorie saw this situation, he knew that it was not what Lanny Mellon said that was unpleasant, but that Jing Gao himself actually had some opinions on this group of people and vented them directly. Mr. Jing is indeed very tough! He
Aren’t you going to explore foreign markets in the future? Lands and rivers will always meet. He smoothed things over and said, “Mr. Jing, everyone is very interested in cooperating in the capital market. As the financial center of Asia, Hong Kong Island has a lot of money-making opportunities.”
Ing Takamichi: “I have no objection to cooperation.”
Abbe-Adler took the opportunity to say: "The underwriter of Uber's IPO this time is..."
Jing Gao said calmly: "The one with the highest price will get it."
He has made up his mind whether players in the capital market want to buy or not! Most of the so-called "players" are those who can be controlled or influenced by the group of people in front of him. He will use Chenxi Bank's own funds to support the market and ensure that the entire optimal
The market for this step is above $50 billion.
Just like what Buffett did with Berkshire, he continuously repurchases his own company's shares and cancels them. Now major American companies are playing this capital game to push up their own company's stock price.
Lanny Mellon controlled his emotions very well. He smiled slightly, raised his glass and said, "Mr. Jing, happy cooperation!"
Jing Gao nodded, "I respect you all!" He left Lenny Mellon alone.
He has nothing to say to those who are his enemies. Even though Mellon has a distinguished background and is still admitting his mistakes to him, it does not mean that he will accept it.
Could it be that someone was going to trick you, but found out that you were so awesome that he didn't dare to take action, and even came over to cooperate with you, so you just greeted him with a smile?
What is the difference between this and Erha?
Be a good person and be kind to others, but you cannot be a good person. This Mellon is obviously the manipulator behind it. He has not forgotten some of the setbacks that Uber encountered when it was listed on the Hong Kong stock market. Li Xiaojia even laughed at him.
Abe Adler, Kadoorie Lao and others raised their glasses and said, "Cheers!"
The representative of HSBC said: "Mr. Jing, the accounts in your hand hold a total of 8.7% of the shares of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Are our subsequent communications with Ms. Guo? Or to put it more directly, this Hong Kong session
After the term of the directors of the stock exchange expires, who do you plan to appoint to the board of directors?"
HSBC is flexing its muscles. They have calculated their holdings of Lp Investment Group very clearly.
Jing Gao looked at Michael Kadoorie and said, "Sir Kadoorie, will your health be fine in two or three years?"
Michael Kadoorie said with a smile: "Of course there is no problem."
Lanny Mellon, Abe Adler and others were relieved in their hearts. Mr. Jing was young and frivolous, and suppressed them in his aura. But when it came to key interest negotiations, he could still communicate.
Jing Gao smiled, took the wine glass, and turned to leave with Wu Jingshu and Gu Xixi. He had his concerns. Anyway, under the current situation, he was not prepared to let anyone openly hold positions in the Phoenix Group or Taichu Group.
To take up a director seat on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. That is very important. He plans to recommend a proxy.
…
…
Jing Gao took the wine glass and left this corner.
“Brother Jing, you are so awesome!” There was a look of admiration in the ancient beautiful eyes beside her. It was obvious that Jing Gao’s tough performance just now and suppressing this group of masterminds made Princess Xixi admired by the financial elite.
Jing Gao tilted his head and smiled at the bright and elegant ancient beauty, but he didn't tease her. Mainly because he stared at him too much throughout the cocktail party tonight.
At this time, several celebrities came over. The leader was Zheng Jiachun, the chairman of New World Development Group, followed by Li Zeju.
Zheng Jiachun shook hands with Jing Gao with a smile, "Jing Sheng, this is the first time we meet. Your name is like thunder."
"Chairman Zheng, thank you for the award." Jing Gao said with a smile. It is said that this person has average business ability, but it is his son and daughter who are quite capable. Jing Gao glanced at Li Zeju, and he roughly understood.
