Inside the envelope was an equity transfer letter.
It clearly states that Cao Weidong will transfer 5% of the equity of Shouzhengtang to Sir Youde at the price of 1 Hong Kong dollar.
Shouzhengtang is the first and largest pharmaceutical company that produces health care products in Hong Kong. It is well-known in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and it can be said that it is making money every day.
5% of the shares may not seem like much, but the annual dividends are definitely a large sum of money.
Did Cao Weidong give it to himself so easily?
He feels a little unreal.
Cao Weidong smiled.
This was actually something he had thought about before.
Shouzhengtang will sooner or later embark on the road of capital operation.
The health care products market is an unexplored blue ocean, and the profits are so huge that it is big enough to tempt anyone.
Cao Weidong doesn't care about these interests.
His original intention was to standardize the health care product market, eliminate fake and inferior products, and purify the market.
But other people may not care.
Rather than being coveted by these people or capital, or even spawning competitors, it is better to draw certain interest groups into one's own camp through equity distribution and let these forces be used for one's own advantage.
You only need to occupy the majority of the shares.
Moreover, the transfer of 5% of the shares to Sir Youde is not for free. He hopes that the other party can provide support in terms of policies.
And when he goes to the mainland to develop, he also needs help from the other party to cover it up...
Sir Yoder's expression quickly turned calm after being shocked.
He was also a politician who dominated the British capitalist class, and he quickly understood Cao Weidong's intentions.
This motherfucker is just the bait she uses to buy herself off.
But Sir Yoder is not opposed to this.
If someone gives you money, why don't you accept it?
If you don't accept it, you won't accept it.
Anyway, I may not be able to serve as the Governor of Hong Kong for long, so I might as well harvest a sum of money and use it for my retirement in the future.
So Sir Yoder signed the equity transfer form with peace of mind and said with a smile.
"We can't do this again."
"Definitely next time."
Seeing that he accepted it, Cao Weidong took the opportunity to propose investing in the mainland and to develop the mainland's health care product market.
Sir Yoder said hesitantly.
"Mr. Cao, the Southeast Asian market is also quite big. Do you want to wait for the mainland market? And now is a sensitive period."
"You are a tycoon in the entertainment and public opinion industry in Hong Kong City. The Prime Minister will visit Hong Kong City in a few days and will definitely want to see you."
Cao Weidong didn't want to meet the Iron Lady.
His tone remained unchanged and he said.
"Sir Youde, we are in business. The focus now should be on developing into the mainland. You also know that it is a market with a population of more than one billion. Even if only one person in a hundred people buys our health products, then
It’s also tens of millions or hundreds of millions in revenue every year.”
"And many pharmaceutical companies have already begun to expand their presence in China. As you know about shopping malls, if you are slow, you will be slow."
Sir Yoder nodded.
Yes, that's right. With such a large population, what a huge market size it is.
Moreover, he is now one of the shareholders of Shouzhengtang. With his status change, he naturally has to consider his own interests.
So he said.
"Cao, just go ahead and do it. I will support you from behind. I will help you cover when necessary."
With Sir Youde's words, Cao Weidong felt relieved.
Next, he established relationships with the four major consortiums through connections, and through some negotiations, sold 10% of the shares to each of the four major consortiums at market prices.
The four major financial groups knew what Cao Weidong meant.
But they had nothing to lose, so they agreed.
So far, Shouzhengtang has completed the first round of financing and equity distribution. Cao Weidong holds 55% of the shares, the four major consortiums each hold 10%, and Sir Youde holds 5%.
He is still the majority shareholder, which is enough.
What's more, I also received a sum of live money that can be used when investing in the mainland market, so it is not considered a loss.
"With the four major consortiums taking shares, my rear will be stable enough."
Cao Weidong thought silently.
In the original timeline, the four major families that have always been known to everyone are usually the Li Ka-shing family, the Lee Shau-kee family, the Cheng Yu-tung family, and the Kwok Desheng family.
The four major families control various industries in the port city and control huge wealth.
But in fact, there are still many British-funded consortiums that control many industries in Hong Kong. They are very low-key, make a fortune in silence, and are extremely rich.
Among them, the four major financial groups are the leaders.
They control many important industries and resources. Even Li Ka-shing once relied on British-funded consortiums to make money. The four major British-funded consortiums are the Swire Financial Group, the HSBC Group, the Jardine Matheson Group, and the Kadoorie Group.
When acquiring [Li's TV], one of the antiques came from HSBC, which shows the wide range of industries it is involved in.
After completing the matters related to equity distribution, Cao Weidong asked Xu Aiguo to convene a group of professionals from the company to greet the mainland. After completing the procedures, he took a ship to the mainland.
Their first stop was Sijiucheng.
...
September has passed and October has arrived in a blink of an eye.
The weather is getting cooler at this time, especially in the morning and evening, so you must wear long-sleeved clothes.
Feeling the unique dryness and coldness of Sijiu City, Cao Weidong's eyes flashed with sadness.
It's back again.
Liaison officer Xu An said with a smile.
"Mr. Cao, the north is different from Hong Kong. After October, the weather is already very cold. How about we go to the department store as our first stop and I will take you to buy some clothes?"
After reporting to the mainland, soon the news that a group of Hong Kong businessmen wanted to invest in industries in the mainland was reported to the Ministry of Commerce.
Not long after the Sino-British Joint Declaration was signed, Hong Kong businessmen invested in the mainland. The Ministry of Commerce was very important. Xu An, a director who had studied abroad and could speak Cantonese and English, was selected from the department to specially come to receive Cao Weidong and others.
Cao Weidong rejected Xu An's kindness, and then said it in the old BJ's words.
"Director Xu, no need, we have brought clothes."
Following Cao Weidong's order, several people in the company took out long clothes from their luggage and wrapped them in them, moving quickly and uniformly.
Xu An was stunned for a long time.
"How come your BJ words are so authentic?"
Xu Aiguo said with a smile.
"Minister Xu, don't you know, the boss and I are both natives of Sijiu City."
Cao Weidong glanced at Xu Aiguo.
Xu Aiguo's tone paused, and he quickly replaced the boss with the boss and said it again.
Cao Weidong nodded, and then briefly explained his purpose of coming.
"Yes, I used to live in Sijiucheng, but later I went to Hong Kong City to develop. Now I heard about China's reform and opening up, so I responded to the call and returned to China to develop."
"I just don't know where my relatives and friends who were with me back then are now."
He glanced over, and suddenly his eyes condensed, and a dim light flashed between his brows.
