331, HSBC takes action again

The matter with Tianhua Toys did not end there, but the next thing was just the negotiation between Qin Tianheng and the two brothers Qin Yaozong and Qin Yaozu after his victory.

This has nothing to do with Chu Huan. At this time, Chu Huan had left Tianhua Toys and followed the elevator directly to the underground parking lot.

Today's heavy rain caught people off guard, and it also left people off guard. When the car drove out of the underground parking lot, the heavy rain had stopped, the dark clouds had dispersed, and the golden sunshine had shone on the world.

The reporters waiting at the door of Tianhua Toys saw Chu Huan's car driving out of the underground parking lot and swarmed up. Before Qin Peng could react, they were already blocking Chu Huan's car.

"Director Chu, may I ask if you are here at Tianhua Toys at this time to fight for the production of Tianhua Toys?"

"Director Chu, your Youth Toys is now the largest partner of Tianhua Toys. Which one of the Qin family do you think is more optimistic about inheriting Tianhua Toys?"

"Director Chu, have the problems within the Qin family of Tianhua Toys been resolved?"

These reporters were almost lying next to Chu Huan's car, asking Chu Huan non-stop, hoping to get some answers from Chu Huan.

But it was obvious that they were disappointed. Chu Huan did not press the window from the beginning to the end. His car slowly crawled out of the parking lot and onto the street like a snail. At this time, these reporters naturally had no choice.

What are you asking about?

I can only go back to Tianhua Toys again to see when Tianhua Toys will make an announcement!

Chu Huan also left here smoothly and returned to the villa in Repulse Bay.

"Is the matter resolved?"

Cao Yunshang asked softly after seeing Chu Huan.

Chu Huan handed the coat to Cao Yunshang and said: "It's solved!"

Cao Yunshang did not ask who won this war, because she knew that as long as Chu Huan came forward, Qin Tianheng would definitely win in the end.

"I hope Qin Tianheng can lead Tianhua Toys to become bigger in the future."

Chu Huan said calmly: "That's his business."

Neither of them went out today, they just stayed quietly in the villa in Repulse Bay.

The Tianhua Toy Qin family's affairs dominated the news trends in Hong Kong from 1974 to 1975.

Many people believe that this internal battle within the Qin family is likely to end up in the judicial process like other Xiangjiang wealthy families, but in fact, in the eyes of many people, this is a thunderstorm.

A little bit of competition for property.

Because after entering 1975, Tianhua Toys issued several announcements one after another.

First of all, Qin Tianheng, as Qin Shihong's designated successor, is now the largest shareholder of Tianhua Toys, and successfully succeeded him as the chairman of Tianhua Toys.

Secondly, Qin Yaozong, the former general manager of Tianhua Toys Production Department, left the company, but continued to hold shares in Tianhua Toys and took his wife to travel around the world.

Finally, Qin Yaozu, the former general manager of Tianhua Toys Sales Department, left the company and continued to hold shares in Tianhua Toys. In addition, Qin Yaozu announced the establishment of his own Qin's Real Estate Company and officially entered the real estate industry.

Finally, Tianhua Toys announced that the Chu Trust Fund has officially entered Tianhua Toys, holding 20.1% of Tianhua Toys’ shares and becoming the second largest shareholder of Tianhua Toys.

Things ended like this when everyone was caught off guard!

Obviously, such a result is unacceptable to the reporters in Hong Kong.

What about the promised feud between the wealthy families?

How about we meet in court as promised?

What about the promised fight in public?

Without these things, what kind of wealthy families would be competing for property?

But now that things have happened, these reporters quickly changed the direction of their reports. There must be a reason for the Qin family's fight for property.

So the reporters from the media in Xiangjiang began to search for clues in this matter, showing off their magical powers.

Try to find the root cause of changing the direction of this matter.

Soon, reporters from Xiangjiang set their sights on Chu Huan.

On the day that first changed the Qin family's competition for property, Chu Huan appeared at Tianhua Toys. In addition, according to insiders from Tianhua Toys, the three people of the Qin family were indeed having a meeting that day, but Chu Huan entered the room in the middle.

Not long after Chu Huan entered, Qin Yaozong and Qin Yaozu left the conference room with a dejected expression.

In the end, it was naturally because Tianhua Toys announced Chu Huan’s shares in Tianhua Toys.

In other words, Chu Huan has become a key node in Tianhua Toys’ internal competition for production.

After discovering this problem, media reporters from Xiangjiang swarmed to Jiahu Building, wanting to interview Chu Huan and ask Chu Huan's views on this matter.

However, in the end, Chu Huan did not appear in front of the media reporters. Instead, Liang Risi from the public relations department of Jiaku Consulting Company came forward to make a statement on behalf of Chu Huan!

In the statement, Liang Risi, on behalf of Chu Huan, denied being involved in Tianhua Toys’ property dispute. As for becoming the second largest shareholder of Tianhua Toys, it was entirely because he was optimistic that Tianhua Toys would be able to better develop under the leadership of Qin Tianheng.

Investment in continued development!

Therefore, statements made by celebrities cannot be believed.

As time passed, the Qin family's competition for property dissipated, and Chu Huan returned to the company to continue working.

However, just when Chu Huan thought that the company would develop in an orderly manner, something happened that Chu Huan did not expect.

Luo Chengcheng from Jiahu Textile found Chu Huan with a serious look on his face.

"Chairman, our previous supplier has increased the price they gave us!"

Jiahu Textile has taken advantage of the global popularity of denim and has become the largest denim manufacturer in Hong Kong. However, at this time, their supplier increased the price of raw materials for no reason.

"In addition, several textile factories in Xiangjiang, with unknown help from someone, suddenly announced at the same time that they would increase the production of denim, and are now competing with us for the European and American markets!"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This is not normal!

After Chu Huan received Luo Jichang's report, he immediately felt that there was something strange about this matter.

Jiahu Textile is the largest denim manufacturer in Xiangjiang. It's too late for those raw material dealers to curry favor. Now they actually offer to raise prices. There are also other textile factories in Xiangjiang. In the current environment, how can they suddenly get a price increase?

How about using a small amount of capital to increase your production?

"What's the situation at Nanhai Textile?" Chu Huan asked Luo Jichang.

Luo Jichang replied: "We have contacted Nanhai Textile, and those raw material suppliers have not increased their prices!"

Then there must be something wrong!

"Did you ask those raw material suppliers why they raised prices for us alone?" Chu Huan continued to ask.

Luo Jichang said angrily: "I have contacted them. They said that the increase in transportation costs caused the price increase!"

"Fart!" Chu Huan said angrily: "The increase in transportation costs only increases our company's costs?"

Luo Jichang also knew that the other party was definitely looking for a reason, but he still reminded Chu Huan: "Chairman, the supply of raw materials for denim is different from the supply of raw materials for toys. In the whole of Southeast Asia, they are the only ones, and now they have

Price increase, if we choose to purchase goods in Europe or South America, the cost will be far higher than the current cost, but if we agree to the other party's request, then our cost will increase, and other textile factories can follow our lead

If we start a price war, we will be even more in danger!"

Chu Huan naturally understood these truths. After thinking about it for a while, Chu Huan said: "The most important thing in this matter is to know why the other party wants to increase the price for us alone!"

Luo Jichang said: "I have asked someone to investigate, and I have also reported this matter to the investigation department of Jiaku Consulting Company, but they don't know the reason yet!"

Chu Huan frowned slightly. Even Jiaku Consulting Company didn't know the situation. It seemed that this matter was interesting.

"What are you going to do?" Chu Huan asked aloud.

Luo Jichang said: "I want to go over there and communicate with those raw material suppliers in person. There must be a problem here. If we can know the crux of the problem, we will know how to prescribe the right medicine!"

Chu Huan had no objection to Luo Jichang's idea and said: "How long will the company's current inventory be enough to sustain it?"

“Production in less than a month!”

Luo Jichang preached.

Chu Huan thought for a moment and said: "I'll contact Nanhai Textile to see if we can borrow some raw materials to top it up!"

Luo Jichang nodded and said: "If that's the case, it would be better!"

Then Chu Huan called Tang Yunian's phone number.

"Ah Huan, I guessed that you should call me now!" Tang Yunian was not surprised at all when he heard Chu Huan's voice.

Chu Huan asked: "Do you also know about our company?"

Tang Yunian explained: "I only found out about it today. This matter has now spread in the industry."

Chu Huan said directly without any nonsense: "Our company's current raw material storage is somewhat insufficient. Can your company help allocate some raw materials?"

Tang Yunian said: "No problem, but we don't have much inventory here, so we can only allocate half a month's production for you!"

Chu Huan said: "That's it!"

Tang Yunian said: "Do you have time in the evening to sit down together?"

Chu Huan had no objection: "Okay!"

In the evening, Chu Huan and Tang Yunian met at the Wuyuehui.

"It seems that someone is targeting you, Jiahu Textile!" This was the first thing Tang Yunian said after meeting Chu Huan.

"Nonsense, even a blind man can see it!" Chu Huan said dissatisfied: "Has your company ever had any trouble before?"

Tang Yunian shook his head and said: "No, just relying on Ah Huan's status in Xiangjiang today, the background of the person who wants to deal with you is not simple!"

Chu Huan said dissatisfiedly: "Stop talking about this kind of nonsense, let's talk about your opinion!"

Tang Yunian laughed and said: "First of all, it shouldn't be people from other places who want to deal with you. If that's the case, they shouldn't support other textile factories in Xiangjiang.

Secondly, this person should know you very well. Although Jiahu Textile is not the most profitable among the companies under your name, it is your face. If he can defeat you in Jiahu Textile, it will be considered cruel.

I slapped you hard in the face.

Finally, again, this person must be very influential in Xiangjiang and have strong financial resources. Otherwise, the raw material merchants in other places will not listen to them, and the textile factories in Xiangjiang will not be able to obtain sufficient supplies overnight.

funds to expand the company’s production.”

At the end, Tang Yunian said seriously: "Ah Huan, this matter is not simple. There are not many companies in Xiangjiang that can do this."

Chu Huan nodded, agreeing with Tang Yunian's analysis.

Tang Yunian looked at Chu Huan and asked, "Do you have any ideas?"

Chu Huan's expression moved slightly and he said: "I thought that someone had this energy, but I didn't expect that the other person actually started to take action!"

Tang Yunian looked at Chu Huan curiously and asked, "Who is it?"

Chu Huan waved his hand and did not tell Tang Yunian the answer he wanted to know. He smiled and said: "It's better not to know, I'm worried about scaring you!"

After Tang Yunian was stunned for a moment, his expression moved slightly, and then he said seriously to Chu Huan: "If this is the case, the other party's methods must be more than these!"

Chu Huan nodded and said, "I know!"

Just as Chu Huan and Tang Yunian analyzed.

On the second day, before Luo Jichang had left Xiangjiang, he once again brought more bad news to Chu Huan.

The original purchaser of Jiahu Textile suddenly proposed to lower some prices in cooperation with Jiahu Textile. If Jiahu Textile does not agree, they will seek other partners!

The house leaked and it rained all night, and Jiahu Textile faced a major crisis again.

"This scene looks familiar!" Luo Jichang sighed to Chu Huan.

Chu Huan suddenly remembered that Jiahu Textile had encountered this kind of thing when Michael Keswick and others formed the Avengers.

However, at that time, Jiahu Textile faced only Jinxiu Textile, but now Jiahu Textile faces their upstream and downstream partners and the textile mills in Xiangjiang who are eyeing it.

The situation is not the least bit more dangerous than it was then.

"Also, just this morning, the textile factories in Xiangjiang announced price cuts on denim at the same time!" Luo Jichang continued to tell Chu Huan about the company's problems.

At this moment, the phone on Chu Huan's desk rang.

"Ahuan, do you know the decisions of other textile factories?" Tang Yunian's voice was a little urgent, and he was obviously very anxious at this time.

Chu Huan nodded and said: "I just found out that they are going to jointly lower the price!"

Tang Yunian said: "I just had a meeting with my dad..."

When talking about this, Tang Yunian was a little silent, and finally said apologetically: "Ah Huan, our company has nothing to do. You know that the biggest customers of our textile factory are customers in Europe and the United States. Our company is not like your company."

There is also Qingjin clothing support..."

Chu Huan didn't wait for Tang Yunian to finish, and laughed softly: "I know, don't worry, I won't think too much about it!"

Tang Yunian said: "Ah Huan, we have calculated that although the other party's price reduction behavior can still ensure that they are profitable, if the money they use to expand factory equipment is borrowed from a bank, then plus interest

They will have no profit, so this price reduction will definitely not last long!"

Chu Huan understood what Tang Yunian meant. If the other party didn't last long, they would definitely raise the price in the future. As long as Chu Huan could persist until then, the problem would be solved.

"A-Nian, you think it's easy, by that time, these European and American customers will no longer come to us to get goods!"

Chu Huan never believed that these customers would wait for the price to rise before cooperating with him again in the future because they had a good cooperative relationship with Jiahu Textile.

There are also textile factories in Europe and the United States. Why do they go all the way to Xiangjiang to find suppliers? Isn't it because the labor in Xiangjiang is cheap? Even if they buy goods in Xiangjiang, the shipping costs are higher than in Xiangjiang.

It is cheaper to buy goods from Europe and the United States.

Is that why they came to Xiangjiang?

Therefore, talking about friendship with them is pure nonsense. If there is no benefit, they will leave you immediately. After those textile factories become their regular suppliers, they will no longer need to exchange them.

Tang Yunian listened to Chu Huan's explanation. After thinking about it for a moment, he understood the key and said helplessly: "What should we do?"

Chu Huan smiled and said: "Don't worry, now that you know who your opponent is, most of the problem has been solved!"

Luo Jichang on the side immediately lit up when he heard that Chu Huan already knew who his opponent was.

After Chu Huan put down the phone, Luo Jichang immediately asked Chu Huan: "Who is the chairman targeting us?"

Chu Huan said calmly: "HSBC!"

"HSBC?" Luo Jichang was really shocked by this answer. He didn't expect that it was HSBC who was targeting them.

"How could it be HSBC? Haven't they always had a good relationship with you, the chairman?"

"To be precise, it's not HSBC, but HSBC's general manager Shen Bi!" Chu Huan added.

When analyzing this matter with Tang Yunian last night, Chu Huan finally set his target on Shen Bi, but in fact, the one who has the ability to do this is not only HSBC, but also Li & Fung Group.

Although the market value of Li & Fung Group is not high, they are the second largest trading company in Hong Kong. Their trade is not only in the toy industry, but also in textiles, garments, electronic products, etc.

In fact, they have the largest channels in their hands and can also integrate raw material suppliers and purchasers.

But before, the two sides had competed on toys. Chu Huan could be said to have directly crushed Li & Fung Group. Later, Li & Fung Group tried to repair the relationship with Chu Huan many times, so Chu Huan did not think that in the In the case of denim, Li & Fung Group will still do this kind of thing.

Furthermore, although Li & Fung Group also has its own financial services company that can provide financial loan services to some manufacturers, it is not something that Li & Fung Group can provide on such a large scale.

So after analyzing these things, Chu Huan believed that it was not Li & Fung who did this.

This does Li & Fung no good!

Since it’s not Li & Fung, then only HSBC is left!

Although his relationship with HSBC is still good, his relationship with Shen Bi has dropped to a freezing point, especially when Chu Huan and Roy Bentley got together.

After entering 1975, Roy Bentley has become the general manager of the loan department of HSBC. He has become the third most powerful person in HSBC after Sha Ya and Shen Bi. This is not a good thing for Shen Bi.

Therefore, Shen Bi must suppress Chu Huan's development.

Chu Huan did not tell Luo Jichang these things, but just let Luo Jichang continue to do these things according to his own plan.

There are no secrets in the business community of Xiangjiang. Soon, the story of Jiahu Textile being attacked by suppliers and buyers spread in the business community of Xiangjiang.

Although these people could not guess that Shen Bi was behind this incident like Chu Huan, they were still stunned after hearing the news.

Just like what Tang Yunian said, no one thought that at this time, there would be someone in Xiangjiang who would be so blatantly targeting Chu Huan.

And the method is so stable and ruthless!

Li & Fung Group!

Feng's father and son, as well as Feng Muying, gathered together again.

Feng Guojing said excitedly at this time: "What a great opportunity!"

The other three people all looked at Feng Guojing.

Feng Guojing said: "If we can help Chu Huan at this time, maybe the conflict between us will be completely resolved!"

Feng Guojing didn't want to become a complete enemy of Chu Huan, so after learning the news, he thought he could use this opportunity to turn hostility into friendship with Chu Huan.

Feng Hanzhu shook his head immediately.

Seeing that his father had different opinions from him, Feng Guojing was stunned for a moment. He had talked with Feng Hanzhu before, and Feng Hanzhu had shown his intention to reconcile with Chu Huan more than once, but why now?

Is it contrary to my own ideas?

Feng Hanzhu gave his own explanation, and said in an affectionate and somewhat complicated way: "Chu Huan's opponent this time is not something we can fight against. Let them fight with the gods on this matter..."

Most people in the Xiangjiang business community did not expect who was targeting Chu Huan this time, but Feng Hanzhu, a senior trader in the trading house, sensed that this matter was not simple at the first time.

Naturally, he had his own information channels, so he immediately activated his connections to find out who was targeting Chu Huan behind his back.

More importantly, at the beginning, Feng Hanzhu actually wanted to use this matter to turn the conflict into friendship with Chu Huan, but when he found out who was putting pressure on those raw material suppliers and who was providing supplies to those textile mills,

After receiving the funds, Feng Hanzhu immediately stopped his idea.

Although it was only Shen Bi, the general manager of HSBC, who took action, but who knows if there is any shadow of HSBC behind this.

Li & Fung Group does not want to deepen its grudge with Chu Huan, nor does it want to offend HSBC.

The threat of offending HSBC may be greater, so after weighing it, Feng Hanzhu decided to continue to lower his head and develop his Li & Fung Group. This kind of fight between gods is not something they can participate in.

After listening to Feng Hanzhu's explanation, Feng Muying said with some excitement: "Since it is HSBC that wants to deal with Chu Huan, why not contact HSBC directly and choose to stand with HSBC? Wouldn't it be better?"

Feng Hanzhu also immediately shook his head and said: "It's best not to have such unrealistic ideas. Brother, have you forgotten about the raw materials for toy manufacturing last time?

With Chu Huan's current size in Xiangjiang, even HSBC cannot knock Chu Huan down with one blow. This is bound to be a long-term competition.

To be honest, I still don’t think that HSBC will be able to defeat Chu Huan this time. After all, it is Shen Bi who takes action and not the entire HSBC.

What if Chu Huan fights back again?

Chu Huan won't do anything to HSBC at that time, but it will be difficult for us. Let's do what I say in this matter. It's their business to fight life and death, and it has nothing to do with us."

Feng Muying thought that Feng Hanzhu was pushed to the ground and rubbed too hard by Chu Huan last time, which caused his expression to change now that he was talking about Chu Huan.

But no matter what, Li & Fung Group still had Feng Hanzhu's say in the matter. Since Feng Hanzhu had already come to a conclusion on the matter, it was hard for him to say anything.

...

This night!

Feng Guojing and Qin Tianheng got together.

Xiangjiang is not big, and there are many connections between these rich people, not to mention two giants like Tianhua Toys and Li & Fung Group who have business relationships.

Although Tianhua Toys sided with Chu Huan in the previous battle between Chu Huan and Li & Fung, it did not affect the cooperation between Li & Fung and Tianhua Toys.

What's more, this time it was Qin Tianheng who was contacted by Feng Guojing.

"Tianheng, congratulations on successfully taking over Tianhua Toys and becoming the second youngest chairman of the board of directors of a listed company in Hong Kong!" Feng Guojing said to Qin Tianheng with a smile.

The first one is naturally Chu Huan!

Although Qin Tianheng's brows were a little tired, he still smiled and said: "Thank you!"

The two clinked glasses and drank it all!

"You invited me here this time, isn't it just to say congratulations?" Qin Tianheng asked with a smile.

Feng Guojing nodded, and did not hide his words: "Although Tianhua Toys now has Youth Toys as a partner, this was something Tianhua Toys had before. I think Tianheng, you must also be thinking about expanding Tianhua.

Toy business, such as selling independent toys produced by your company to other regions!"

Tianhua Toys has a total of three businesses. The first one is naturally the cooperation with Youth Toys, which is already their company’s largest business.

The second is to cooperate with some Japanese toy companies and produce their toys as an agent.

The third one is a toy produced independently. Although the quantity is the smallest, the profit of a single toy is the highest!

Qin Tianheng's eyes suddenly lit up. After taking over as chairman of Tianhua Toys, Qin Tianheng has been thinking about how to improve the company's business. If the independent toys produced by his company can cooperate with Li & Fung Toys, they can be sold overseas.

"Mr. Feng, I don't think you came here specifically to help in times of need, right?" Qin Tianheng understood that there is no free lunch in this world, and Feng Guojing suddenly placed such a large piece of cake in front of him.

It is impossible to say that there is no intention!

Feng Guojing smiled and said: "Actually, I just want to know from your mouth, Tianheng, what kind of person Chu Huan is?"
