Simon Keswick played the emotional card with Li Chaoren, but Li Chaoren had no intention of accepting the offer. It was impossible for them to accept the price of HK$18 per share.
They have no obligation to pay for Simon Keswick's feelings!
In the end, the two parties could not reach a consensus, so they clinked their glasses and separated.
Seeing Li Chaoren and Simon Keswick separated, Wu Jianye smiled and said to Zheng Yutong, 'Zheng Sheng, it seems it's time for us to appear!'
Zheng Yutong said: Wu Sheng, there is something I hope you can understand.
Wu Jianye stopped himself: Zheng Sheng, do you have any suggestions?
Zheng Yutong said: Wu Sheng, it is understandable that Yaoguang Group is interested in Land, but negotiations can not only be resolved at the negotiation table. There are some things we hope Wu Sheng can consider, because after all, everyone is Chinese
, everyone competes fairly, everyone relies on his or her ability, and everyone can accept the win or loss. I hope Wu Sheng will not be misled by Simon Keswick, and in the end everyone will fight with each other, and Yihe will take advantage in the end.
Wu Jianye understood what Zheng Yutong meant. He was worried that during the negotiation between Yaoguang Group and Yihe, he would be trapped by Yihe, and then form a malicious competition with the newly formed consortium formed by Zheng Yutong and others, maliciously increase the price, and in the end no one would have any money.
Earn it, but let Yihe earn it.
This is another worry that Zheng Yutong and others do not understand the details of Wu Jianye. They really don’t know how much price Wu Jianye is going to offer. If the price really exceeds their hearts, whether they should continue or not.
Competition?
Zheng Sheng was assured that Yaoguang Group's bid would not exceed HK$15 per share! Wu Jianye did not hide it, but told Zheng Yutong his low price.
Zheng Yutong's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, but his face said calmly: Wu Sheng's price...
Wu Jianye understood what Zheng Yutong meant, but he still smiled and said: I always have to give it a try, just in case Ximen Keswick likes our Yaoguang Group!
Zheng Yutong smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Excuse me for a moment! Wu Jianye left.
How was the conversation? Li Chaoren came to Zheng Yutong's side and asked.
We didn’t understand! Zheng Yutong thought about Wu Jianye’s confident smile just now and said with some incomprehension.
Li Chaoren was slightly startled: Yaoguang Group wants to increase prices?
No... Then Zheng Yutong started to talk about the conversation just now to his partner.
At this time, Wu Jianye also came to Ximen Keswick.
Mr Keswick!
Wu Sheng!
There is no need for the two parties to introduce each other. Although they have never met, they both know what the other person looks like.
Presumably Mr. Keswick must have known about Yaoguang Group and wants to acquire the equity of Land 26 held by your company!
I’ve heard some, but I still say the same thing, as long as the price is right, the door to real estate is open! Simon Keswick said with a smile.
Like other Hong Kong rich men, Simon Keswick was also very curious about Wu Jianye. He also wanted to know what surprises such a rich man who suddenly appeared would bring him!
Wu Jianye smiled and said: Don't worry, Mr. Keswick, Yaoguang Group is very sincere in wanting to acquire the land, so the price we offer will definitely satisfy Mr. Keswick.
I don’t know what the price of Wu Sheng is?
15 Hong Kong dollars per share! Wu Jianye said seriously.
Simon Keswick was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed and said: Wu Sheng, I’m afraid you don’t understand Land’s position in Xiangjiang and its true value, right?
Wu Jianye's expression was still very serious: Mr. Keswick, please rest assured, I definitely know Land Land better than you think!
Simon Keswick smiled and said: Since Wu Sheng knows, he should know that at the price of 15 Hong Kong dollars, he will definitely not get the land!
Wu Jianye's serious expression disappeared and was replaced by a smile: Since Mr. Keswick thinks the price is not appropriate, let's wait a little longer.
Ximen Keswick was a little confused about what Wu Jianye meant. It stands to reason that Wu Jianye met Huang Tingfang two days ago and went to find him again today. It was obvious that he had ideas about the land, but why was the price so bad?
What about professionalism?
Could it be the capital reserves of Yaoguang Group...
After chatting with Simon Keswick for a while, Wu Jianye left.
What do you mean by Wu Jianye? Simon Keswick subconsciously asked Bao Weishi next to him: Is the strength of Yaoguang Group reached this level, or does he have no idea of acquiring Land at all?
Are the recent operations actually aimed at lowering the selling price of real estate?
Bao Weishi also showed a trace of doubt: I can't see through this person either. Judging from his expression just now, he must have some thoughts about the situation, but the price he gave...
Simon Keswick thought for a while, but still couldn't understand what Wu Jianye meant. In the end, he just shook his head: Forget it, if you can't understand, don't think about it. If he really wants to buy land, he will come again.
!
At this time, two old men in their sixties came into the dinner. One was a little thin and the other was a little rich.
Both of them are also well-known figures in Hong Kong. The thin one is Huo Tsar, a hidden rich man in Hong Kong, while the rich one is a chartered ship king who is known as the world's shipping king.
They are all highly respected people in the Xiangjiang business community. When they came here, they naturally attracted many people to talk to them.
Wu Jianye also started chatting with the two through Zheng Yutong's introduction.
Young people are terrible! When the two of them saw Wu Jianye's age, they couldn't help but sigh.
Through chatting, Wu Jianye discovered that Huo Tsarhuang mostly talked to him about domestic matters, while the Charter King was a bit dull.
People say that the most profitable thing in Xiangjiang now is the real estate industry, but they don’t know that the lifeline of Xiangjiang’s real estate industry is firmly in the hands of King Huo.
Steel, cement and sand are the three main building materials. Without this one, even a clever woman cannot make a living without rice.
Due to the special geographical location of Xiangjiang, sand has become a scarce building material in Xiangjiang.
In the initial stage, there were two major sources of sand in Xiangjiang.
The first is the river beach; but the tofu is transported to Xiangjiang by truck and ship from China. The price of tofu is like meat, and the quantity is limited. In the face of the booming real estate industry in Xiangjiang, it is just a drop in the bucket and difficult to cope with.
The second is the seabed; especially in the shallow waters of the South China Sea, the thick sand layer can be said to be almost inexhaustible. Someone has roughly calculated that the amount of sand stored in just one sea area can
The entire area is covered by the Xiangjiang River (including the New Territories of Kowloon, Lantau Island), and it is relatively close. It is very convenient to have everything you need at your fingertips.
The terrible thing is that the sand mining industry is extremely risky. The investment is large and the cycle is long. Under normal circumstances, the amount of artificial machinery required is quite outweighed by the gains and losses compared with the sea sand obtained.
At this time, relying on his domestic connections, Huo Shahuang had the monopoly on export sales of Huaxia Haishasha. His status as a giant in the sand scouring industry made Huo Shahuang a prominent figure in the Hong Kong industrial world.
This gave rise to the great reputation of Emperor Huo Tsar.
However, it is precisely because of his close relationship with the country that Emperor Huo was frequently targeted by the Hong Kong government in his early years in Hong Kong.
In the 1960s, King Fok built the "Star Tower" building in front of the Star Ferry Pier in Kowloon.
Most of the Star Building from the first to the third floor is occupied by Zhongyi Company, which specializes in selling high-end Chinese products; the fourth floor is Star Village, where the closed Hong Kong Wax Museum was originally located. The fourth floor and above are decorated Hundreds of first-class office rooms are available for rent to all types of merchants.
Unexpectedly, things went against everyone's wishes. Since King Huo is well-known as the general distributor of Chinese sea sand, it is not difficult to understand that Starlight Shop, which belongs to his property, received harsh treatment and difficulties from the officials when it was recruiting for rent.
It is said that at that time, all those who wanted to rent an office in Xingguang Bank received advice from the government telephone company, asking them to think twice before doing so; if they rented it, installing a telephone might not be possible in the future. Most people who do business are greedy for profit and forget their loyalty. Who dares to fight with the Hong Kong government when the wind blows (Cantonese: make enemies!)?! Furthermore, it is indeed impossible to do business without the phone, so they retreated one after another; some even failed to pay the deposit. No need for sacrifice.
Under this situation, Emperor Huo had mixed feelings. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and sell Starlight to Land at the lowest price of more than 30 million yuan.
Throughout this transaction, Tsar Huo lost tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars. Did he learn any lessons? Yes, as the saying goes, a blind man eats glutinous rice balls - he knew it well.
The chartered ship king was the richest man in Hong Kong before Li Chaoren. Before the shipping winter came, the chartered ship king made the decision to abandon the ship and land with the momentum of swallowing up mountains and rivers.
Tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars were spent on the acquisition of Land Wharf. Even decades later, the chartered ship king’s acquisition of Wharf was still one of the most famous commercial acquisitions in Hong Kong.
It has also become the first source of funding for many Hong Kong language travelers...
However, compared to Huo Czar, Wu Jianye is more interested in chatting with the chartering king. After all, the chartering king still holds 15% of the shares of Standard Chartered Bank at this time!
However, Wu Jianye's strategy for acquiring Standard Chartered Bank was obviously different from that of Land. He did not mention it directly. He only mentioned that he wanted to find time to visit the two seniors in the past two days.
Emperor Huo and the chartering king also did not refuse Wu Jianye's request. They made appointments with Wu Jianye respectively.
With the arrival of Wei Yixin, the Hong Kong Governor's dinner officially began.
As for the positions of Wu Jianye and Zhou Tao, they were not assigned to the first-class round table in the end.
However, Wu Jianye had no reaction to this. His purpose of coming to the Hong Kong Governor's Dinner had been achieved. As for sitting there, he didn't care at all.
After the dinner, Wu Jianye and Zhou Tao looked at each other, neither of them had eaten enough.
So the two of them sat in a car, protected by bodyguards, and dressed in the attire for the Hong Kong Governor's dinner. They found a food stall that was still open and sat down. They ordered two bottles of beer and some stir-fry dishes, and it was a comfortable meal. Woolen cloth.
I have never been able to understand that those rich men in suits and ties, holding wine glasses and not using their chopsticks once or twice during a dinner party, are they really full? After all these years, Zhou Tao is still not used to that. Life.
Wu Jianye smiled nonchalantly and said: "You thought they were going to eat, but they were going to discuss business."
Besides, you are already a rich man, and richer than many people here!
At this time, Zhou Tao's wealth had already begun to be measured in hundreds of millions, and it was still in US dollars.
Zhou Tao said helplessly: I know everything you said, but I still don’t like it!
Wu Jianye laughed and glanced at Zhou Tao: You like it when you go home to farm?
Zhou Tao stopped talking.
Finally, Wu Jianye defined Zhou Tao: You, this is hypocrisy!
