In the course of the financial game in the past two years, many problems have been exposed.
Although the exchange rate has been maintained, the stock market and property market have suffered a double blow, and it will be difficult to recover for a while. Many people in Hong Kong who bought houses at high prices have cut off their mortgage payments. There are also many people who are unemployed and losing money in stock trading. A large number of middle class people are retreating instead of advancing.
Although there are already bubbles in the real estate and stock markets, if it had not been for a financial crisis, there would have been a chance for it to slowly disappear. At least the situation would not have been so serious, with chicken feathers all over the floor.
In addition, the British who intervened previously have been away for more than a year, and it is indeed time to consider the future.
It is true that Su Yehao rarely personally intervenes in company management, but he reads the newspaper every morning.
I often receive the latest information from brokerages, consulting companies, and assistant think tank teams. I maintain a professional financial analysis team and receive high salaries. I always have to do something practical and focus on the key points.
The situation in regions and industries is fairly well understood.
After hearing what Vice President Zheng Yongwen said, Su Yehao was keenly aware that this might be a rare and good opportunity.
The current Hong Kong Stock Exchange is not perfect, with only more than 500 listed companies listed there. Once several financial institutions are integrated, it happens to be in a low period recently, and there is a high probability that they can make a fortune from it.
When it comes to how much he earns, he actually has no idea, but it's just because of this that it makes him find it even more interesting.
In addition to the factors of investment profit, the most important thing is that as long as you join the board of directors of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, you will have the opportunity to provide some suggestions for future development.
There is definitely some selfishness.
For example, at this moment, Su Yehao is thinking that it might be possible to list all mainland Internet companies on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
The benefits are many.
First, it can enhance the status of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. If you become a shareholder, you will definitely be able to stimulate the stock price to rise in the future and make profits from it.
The second is to move mainland Internet companies to Hong Kong for listing, and also have the opportunity to guide mainland investors to come and invest, so that foreigners will not make profits all day long, and good companies will go to the United States to list.
The third is to improve one's own status, so that through companies such as Koko Venture Capital, it can help others draw a bigger pie and increase their voice.
Su Yehao only wanted to eat a portion of such a huge piece of cake from beginning to end. The market was so huge that he would easily choke to death if he thought about eating it alone.
Considering that mainland high-tech companies have just started to get started, a number of high-quality companies will emerge in the future. If the listing threshold is lowered to a level similar to that of Nasdaq, and a financing and trading platform is developed, maybe it can become the only
Second to the existence of Nasdaq.
It would not be easy at other times, but the Internet bubble is coming soon, which means leaving a few years to prepare slowly...
Unknowingly, I have learned to think from the perspective of a big businessman.
Su Yehao paused for a few seconds to sort out his thoughts, and decisively came to the conclusion that he could give it a try. He stood next to Zheng Yongwen and asked him: "The Hong Kong Stock Exchange is such a big piece of fat, but why did you come to me?"
"Because you are rich." Vice President Zheng Yongwen replied immediately without thinking.
"... It's a very strong reason. If I only hold a part of the shares, I can really afford the money. After the merger, what is the approximate market value of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange itself? Also, if I participate, how many shares can I hold?"
After hearing Su Yehao's question, Zheng Yongwen didn't panic and motioned to sit at the dining table first. He smiled at Nangong Tian and complimented her on how beautiful she was.
After slowly wiping the tableware, Zheng Yongwen told:
"According to my estimation, the total market value should be between 7 billion and 10 billion Hong Kong dollars. Business has been difficult in the past two years, and the profits of several companies have declined seriously. According to the rumors I have heard, every shareholder should not hold shares.
More than 5%, a group of foreign securities firms and banks have expressed interest. The news has not spread yet, but it should be coming soon. There are many people who know about this matter, so it is not considered a leak."
"By the way, Master Su, since this is your restaurant, wouldn't it be too much to give me a portion of the most valuable dishes?"
Nodding indifferently, Su Yehao didn't care about this trivial matter and continued to ask: "Five percent... doesn't it mean that you can hardly speak? You just mentioned a few more of your own people, which means you also found others?"
"Of course, there are too many wolves but too little meat to share. If it is liberalized for financing, someone will probably privatize it directly. Limiting the share ratio is also to pursue balance."
Zheng Yongwen shook his head with a smile, and then said: "I didn't expect your business to be so big. I was surprised before I came to you. I thought you were more suitable."
The so-called suitability naturally refers to joining the board of directors of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
When Su Yehao learned that the maximum number of shares he held was no less than 5%, he suddenly felt like cold water was pouring on his head, and the strong little fire in his heart was extinguished all of a sudden.
Even if you sneak into the board of directors and find a way to obtain the consent of other directors, it is still possible to set up a science and technology innovation board to provide more financing opportunities for mainland companies, but you don’t have to think about it to know that it will consume too many brain cells and will result in too many people.
There was a lot of nonsense, and he was most afraid of trouble.
Fortunately, you don't have to go out in person to argue with someone. You can just arrange for a representative to speak for you.
Therefore, as long as there is an opportunity to participate in shares, Su Yehao still wants to give it a try. It is just a "small company" with a market value of one billion US dollars, and the shareholding ratio is limited. It doesn't cost much anyway.
Let’s chat for a while and finish ordering the dishes.
Su Yehao couldn't care about Xiao Nizi for the time being, and asked Zheng Yongwen: "What about you, do you also plan to become a shareholder?"
"With this little money, I can't even afford a house in Repulse Bay."
"... Then why are you so kind to reveal this kind of news to me? It probably has nothing to do with you. There is no way that there will be a lack of investment."
At this moment, Vice President Zheng Yongwen felt that Su Yehao had many problems, so he smacked his lips and explained:
"Actually, I was one of the people who supported the reorganization of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Now I am worried about a group of foreign capital becoming shareholders. Why should they destroy the Hong Kong stock market and in turn give them opportunities to make money? People always want to
You have a bit of backbone, so I want to make it a little more difficult for them, and the opportunity to make money will be given to you, which is better than being divided up by others."
Su Yehao was thoughtful and could vaguely understand Vice President Zheng Yongwen's thoughts.
Those multinational investors, relying on their deep pockets, invest a little in the east and a little in the west. They do nothing but use their money to make money and seize the best corporate shares.
Seriously speaking, the same seems to be true for venture capital companies... But if your own money is made by outsiders, you will inevitably feel uncomfortable.
Worried that Su Yehao would not understand his thoughts, Zheng Yongwen added:
"Some people think that by bringing in large multinational institutions, they will have the opportunity to make the Hong Kong Stock Exchange bigger. This idea is a bit funny. As long as the listed companies are good enough, they will still be willing to invest. On the contrary, even if they are allowed to become major shareholders, they will still not
It will bring money over. International hot money is always about profit, and other ideas are unreliable, so I want to create a fair bidding environment and keep the shares of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in the Hong Kong city."
Su Yehao felt that this taste was right, and he had the urge to give him a thumbs up and praise him, and immediately told him: "Okay, I am willing to invest, two to three hundred million US dollars is not a problem, but it is best to wait, I don't have connections or anything like that."
I understand, I guess I need to ask you for help. I’m usually too homely, I don’t have many connections and don’t have many friends, I only know how to spend money.”
"...Being able to spend money is also a skill. It doesn't cost as much as two or three billion US dollars. This matter has just been taken on, and it is not certain whether it can be completed this year. I have been a chief consultant for so long, and the most impressive one is
The thing is, you can never trust the efficiency of those people."
With a silent laugh, Zheng Yongwen changed the subject and asked Su Yehao: "How are you doing recently? Are you so happy to have hit the bull market in the United States?"
"Of course, sometimes when I open my eyes and find that there are another three to four billion US dollars in my account, I don't know where to spend the money."
Su Yehao spoke the truth, looked at Zheng Yongwen, and took the opportunity to suggest: "The undercurrent of Nasdaq is turbulent. I feel that it is difficult to grasp it at my level. I only know that there are bubbles in the stock market and there is a steady stream of good news. It should still be possible."
How about I give you some money and we can play options and futures together?"
Zheng Yongwen smiled calmly and said: "Stock trading is about people's hearts. I'm from Hong Kong. I don't know what those Americans are thinking. I advise you to just stop it. People who chase high prices often don't end well..."
