419, the imminent takeover battle of Qingzhou Yingni
Qingzhou Cement?
Or it can be called Qingzhou Yingni!
Historically, this company was the first cement factory in China. It was founded in Haojiang in the last century. Later, it also established Qingzhou Yingni on the Kowloon coast of Hong Kong. The Qingzhou Yingni in Haojiang closed down in 1936, and the one in Xiangjiang
Qingzhou Yingni has been in production to this day and is now the largest cement factory in Hong Kong. It can also be said to occupy a monopoly position in the cement industry in Hong Kong.
In another time and space, Qingzhou Yingni was acquired by Li Jiacheng in 1979, but unexpectedly it was four years earlier than expected!
Sure enough, it was a little butterfly that fanned the course of history.
Everything is so messed up.
"back office!"
Because of Ma Jizu's words, all Chu Huan's planned itinerary was about to change. Originally, Chu Huan was planning to return to the villa in Qianshui Bay to have a good rest, but he did not expect the sudden acquisition of Qingzhou Yingni.
All this is disrupted.
The group of people quickly returned to Jiahu Building, and Chu Huan first came to his office.
Xu Yi and Wu Shuhan are already waiting here.
"Qin Peng has the gifts I brought back from Japan. They were given by Wu Xiaoshi and others to his family. Shu Han, please arrange for someone to distribute them."
Wu Shuhan took the order and went out.
Xu Yize said to Chu Huan, "Boss, managers from various departments of the company, and Mr. He and Mr. Lu from Zhulu Real Estate are already waiting for you in the conference room!"
Everyone understands what Qingzhou Yingni represents to the company, especially now that Zhulu Real Estate under the name of Chu Huan has two super projects, Huaye City and Zhulu Commercial Center. Qingzhou Yingni can be said to control these two projects.
's lifeblood.
Previously this was a group similar to a milk company, but now if this company is acquired by Li Jiacheng, the impact on Zhulu Real Estate will be unclear, so at this time everyone already wants to see how Chu Huan handles this matter.
Something happened.
"Go to the conference room!"
Chu Huan didn't waste any time and went straight to the conference room.
There were many people sitting in the conference room at this time, including He Bingguang, the general manager of Zhulu Real Estate, Lu Qi, the deputy general manager, Chu Duanqing, the financial manager, Ma Jizu, the investigation department manager of Jiaku Consulting Company, Liang Risi, the public relations manager, and Lin Feng, the security department manager.
, Finance Department Manager Cui Weihua, Human Resources Manager Wan Qiaobo, Operations Department Manager Qiao John, Political Department Manager Deng Yaoquan, Negotiation Department Manager Zhang Ke, Legal Department Manager Yan Zhengsen!
At first, Jiaku Consulting Company only had seven departments: secretarial department, investigation department, public relations department, security department, finance department, personnel department, and operations department. However, with the development of the company and Chu Huan's business needs, a political department was added.
, Negotiation Department, Legal Department.
Among them, Wan Qiaobai was appointed later. He was originally the leader of the fifth group of the operations department. However, as his abilities were continuously demonstrated in the company and he passed the internal investigation of the investigation department, he was appointed by Chu Huan as a consultant to Jiaku.
Manager of the company's human resources department.
Political Department Manager Tang Yaoquan, 48 years old, was once an assistant director of the Hong Kong Government Administration Bureau, but his career has come to an end at this point. After all, as a Chinese, he lacks funds and background support.
It is difficult to make any further progress.
After Jiaku Consulting Company offered him an olive branch and a generous salary, he decisively resigned from his position in the Administrative Bureau and joined Jiaku Consulting Company!
Negotiation Department Manager Zhang Ke, 46 years old, was the former general manager of Hehe International Public Relations Department. Zhang Ke was indispensable for Qi Dezun's ability to acquire so many companies in the past days.
Also attracted by the generous salary, I joined Jiaku Consulting Company.
Yan Zhengsen, the manager of the legal department, is the oldest person in the young company of Chu Huan. He is 52 years old this year. He studied law in England in his early years, and later became a well-known barrister in Xiangjiang, and later became a lawyer in Xiangjiang.
Member of the Department of Justice, but eventually left the Hong Kong Department of Justice.
The reason is that this person was very willing to litigate lawsuits on behalf of the people at the bottom of Hong Kong, and he touched the interests of many powerful people, which made him disappointed with the Hong Kong government, so he left the Department of Justice.
After Chu Huan promised to allocate 1 million from the charity fund every year as a fund for the people at the bottom of Xiangjiang to fight lawsuits, he successfully joined the legal department of Jiaku Consulting Company.
By the way, Yan Zhengsen is also the only person who fought a lawsuit against David Warner and was called a glorious person by the media even though he lost.
Of course, although these new recruits hold high positions in Jiaku Consulting Company, their authority to mobilize company documents and information is not high, and the company still needs to continue to observe them.
"Let's talk about Qingzhou Yingni's situation first!"
Chu Huan sat in the chairman's seat, eliminating unnecessary opening remarks and a brief sermon.
Liang Risi, manager of the public relations department, said, "Qingzhou Yingni was founded. Now Qingzhou Yingni's market value should be around 100 million Hong Kong dollars, with a total of 12.6 billion shares issued, about HK dollars per share."
According to Chu Huan's memory, in another time and space, when Li Jiacheng acquired Qingzhou Yingni in 1979, the market value of Qingzhou Yingni at that time was about HK$177 per share, and the market value was HK$100 million, which increased by nearly 40% in four years.
The stock price is not a high growth rate in the real estate industry in Xiangjiang, but it is also related to the nature of their company.
Qingzhou Yingni focused on cement production and did not develop real estate projects during this period.
"What is the current situation of Qingzhou Yingni's board of directors?" After Chu Huan finished speaking, he looked at Ma Jizu, the manager of the investigation department.
Before Chu Huan came back, Ma Jizu had obviously done some research and said, "The chairman of the board of directors of Qingzhou Yingni is British businessman Daniel Cook. He also has a lot of business in England, so he doesn't care much about Qingzhou Yingni. In addition,
Seventy percent of the directors of Qingzhou Yingni are businessmen from England, Australia, Canada and other places, and the remaining 30% are Chinese businessmen from Xiangjiang.
By the way, Li Mingze is also a director of Qingzhou Yingni."
Chu Huan continued to ask, "Lijiacheng's Changshi has a market value of only 7.8 billion, so how could he suddenly acquire Qingzhou Yingni? Where did his funds come from?"
Operations Department Manager Qiao John replied at this time, "According to the investigation of the Investigation Department and the analysis of our Operations Department, Lijiacheng's funds should come from three parts. The first is Changshi's personal funds. With the current recovery of the stock market, the recovery of land prices
, Cheung Kong took this opportunity to issue some new shares and raised almost HK$100 million in cash.
Secondly, it should be loan support from HSBC. After all, we all know that Li Jiacheng has a good relationship with HSBC General Manager Shen Bi.
In the end, it was probably the four major British banks that provided some financial support.”
Chu Huan nodded slightly, acknowledging this analysis, but what Chu Huan didn't expect was that this time Li Jiacheng did not continue to develop according to its own development rules in another time and space, but chose to find another way.
However, this is understandable. Because of the emergence of Zhulu Real Estate, the development of Changshi has been greatly affected. In another time and space, many business operations were not successful.
So now Lijiacheng must find another way to find the possibility of overtaking in corners.
As for Shen Bi, he and Chu Huan are old rivals. Ever since Chu Huan chose Luo Yin Bentley again in the last competition in the commercial center, although the relationship between the two parties has not been broken in person, both parties also understand that
It is impossible to cooperate.
In addition, in this matter, Chu Huan had no way to find Sha Ya to raise any objections, because this time it was not like the last time Chu Huan acquired Chinese Bank.
The last time Chu Huan acquired Chinese Bank, Chu Huan acted first and Li Jiacheng acted second. It can be said that the other party was deliberately against him.
But now, it is Li Jiacheng who took the lead in initiating the acquisition of Qingzhou Yingni. He cannot be overbearing and say that he is attracted to Qingzhou Yingni now. You must withdraw, right?
Chu Huan can't do such a shameful thing. Even if everyone knows that if Li Jiacheng acquires Qingzhou Yingni, even if it is just a company with a market value of 2 to 3 billion, it still cannot shake Zhulu Real Estate.
You have grasped the lifeblood of Zhulu Real Estate!
So this time, Li Jiacheng not only took the lead, but also dominated public opinion.
If Chu Huan wants to compete with the other party for Qingzhou Yingni, he must engage in a clear-cut acquisition war.
"How many shares of Qingzhou Yingni has been acquired by Changshi?"
Ma Jizu replied, "The specific number is unknown, but a conservative estimate is that it should be more than 5!"
Hearing this reply, Chu Huan frowned slightly. He was careless after all. Although he had always known the importance of Qingzhou Yingni, he actually didn't pay enough attention to it in his heart.
Because most of the descriptions of this takeover battle in later generations were in one sentence and there was no other description, this gave people the impression that Qingzhou Yingni was very easy to acquire.
That's why Chu Huan always despises this matter.
I knew about this matter before, but for some reason I couldn’t come back to Japan in advance to deal with it.
It's better now. Li Jiacheng seriously taught Chu Huan a lesson. No one's success is casual.
Despising any enemy may teach you an unforgettable lesson.
"What kind of reaction will public opinion and the Hong Kong government have if the company acquires Qingzhou Yingni?" Chu Huan first looked at Liang Risi from the Public Relations Department, and then looked at Deng Yaoquan from the Political Department.
Liang Risi was the first to answer, "Although Qingzhou Yingni's current equity distribution is very fragmented, it is still a British-funded company. If the company can successfully acquire Qingzhou Yingni, the company will set a precedent for the first Chinese-funded consortium to acquire a British-funded company in Hong Kong."
, it will definitely get a positive response from ordinary Xiangjiang citizens.
However, everything has two sides, and such an action will definitely cause panic among many foreign-funded consortiums, and may even create some hostility to the company!"
After Liang Risi finished answering, Deng Yaoquan spoke up and said, "Although Daniel Cook, the chairman of Qingzhou Yingni, is British, he does not have any deep connections with the Hong Kong government. This is also related to his absence from Hong Kong all year round. According to the chairman
With your influence in the Hong Kong government and in Hong Kong, I don’t think the Hong Kong government will do anything on this matter.
At most, some more radical officials will speak out and say something."
Chu Huan nodded slightly and said, "In other words, the advantages of acquiring Qingzhou Yingni outweigh the disadvantages!"
Operations Manager Qiao John said, "This is not a matter of pros outweighing the cons, but Qingzhou Yingni used to be a public company, and the board of directors was not very concerned about the company's operations, so everyone can coexist peacefully, but if Qingzhou Yingni is betrayed by someone,
Acquisitions, especially those of Cheung Kong, which has always been in competition with the company.
Then Cheung Kong will definitely use this matter to conduct some business negotiations with the company, and then one of the company's lifebloods will be in the hands of others."
The rest of the people nodded, and it was obvious that everyone agreed with Qiao John's analysis.
Chu Huan then set his sights on He Bingguang, Lu Qi and Cui Weihua, manager of the financial department of Jiaku Consulting Company.
“How much capital can the company mobilize now?”
He Bingguang first glanced at Cui Weihua, and then said aloud, "Zhulu Real Estate needs to prepare the funds required for the development of Zhulu Commercial Center. If this part is deducted, the company can still come up with 100 million in cash, but this money is what the company has prepared."
It will be used to bid for some land in the second half of this year.”
After Cui Weihua waited for He Bingguang to finish speaking, he said, "Jiaku can also provide 600 million Hong Kong dollars in cash, but the chairman of the board, you said that this cash has its uses!"
The funds Chu Huan kept in his hands actually had two uses. One was to supplement his business in Japan, and the other was to deal with emergencies.
At this time, although most of the profits from several companies under Chu Huan's name will be put into the accounts of Jiaku Consulting Company in different banks around the world, they themselves will definitely leave the liquidity required for the company's operation.
and reserve funds to deal with emergencies.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Chu Huan once told the heads of each of his companies that the company's reserve funds are strictly not allowed to be used unless it is a matter of life and death.
.
After listening to the reports of the two people, Chu Huan knew that the only funds available to him were the 600 million Hong Kong dollars. If calculated based on the current market price of Qingzhou Yingni, this fund could probably purchase 30% of Qingzhou Yingni.
Six shares.
However, this is something that can only be done under normal operations. It is different now. With the opponent Li Jiacheng, Chu Huan still does not know Qingzhou Cement's attitude on this matter.
A conservative estimate is that if you want to obtain a controlling stake in Qingzhou Yingni, you will need at least one billion Hong Kong dollars!
"That's not right!" Thinking of this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Chu Huan's mind. He looked at everyone and said, "Even without our participation, if Changshi wants to get more than half of the shares of Qingzhou Yingni, it will need at least 900 million Hong Kong dollars."
Even with a loan from HSBC and the help of the four major British banks, it is impossible to raise such a large sum of cash."
After hearing Chu Huan's analysis, everyone was immediately blessed.
John Qiao said with some annoyance, "Chairman, this is a mistake of our operations department, which was led astray by Changshi's previous operations. Before that, Changshi had been using cash to acquire Qingzhou Yingni's stocks. This is why
It gave us the false impression that Changshi would use cash to acquire Qingzhou Yingni's shares in the future, but ignored their cash situation."
Zhang Ke, the manager of the negotiation department, analyzed, "If Changshi not only uses cash, but also chooses to exchange shares for shares, it is not right. The market value of Changshi is much lower than that of Qingzhou Yingni. If they want to exchange shares for shares, how can they do it?"
Aren’t you going to give up your long-lasting strength to others?”
Zhang Ke's words once again caused everyone to fall into silence.
"Perhaps the company that exchanged shares for shares was not Cheung Kong, but another company!" John Qiao said aloud.
The figures of the four major British companies immediately appeared in the minds of everyone in the conference room.
If this is the case, everyone's hearts sank again, this time the opponent is very powerful!
"So, the company will prepare more cash next!"
Chu Huan also understood that this was no longer a war between himself and Li Jiacheng and Shen Bi. In the two-person team of Li Jiacheng and Shen Bi, four major British foreign firms were added.
Fortunately, among the four major British-owned foreign firms, there is also an undercover agent named Chu Huan.
Subsequently, the discussion content of the meeting began from these general directions to specific details, and even to the specific issues of each department.
But everyone here understands that this matter cannot be delayed for too long. After all, the longer it is delayed, the more detrimental it will be to Chu Huan.
So the whole meeting only took one afternoon to set all the tone.
Go all out to acquire Qingzhou Yingni!
Chu Huan held an internal meeting on Ying Changshi's acquisition of Qingzhou Yingni. On the other hand, Li Jiacheng was caught off guard by Chu Huan's sudden return to Hong Kong.
"Why are you back so soon!"
After learning this result, Li Jiacheng came to HSBC as soon as possible and found Shen Bi, with great helplessness in his words.
Regarding the acquisition of Qingzhou Yingni, Li Jiacheng was very clear in his heart. As long as he made any move, it would definitely attract Chu Huan's attention. According to Chu Huan's character, a dispute between the two parties would inevitably happen.
A brutal takeover battle.
Therefore, Li Jiacheng chose to launch a sudden acquisition during Chu Huan's absence in Xiangjiang in order to achieve an unexpected effect.
For Li Jiacheng, the best solution to this matter is that when Chu Huan returned to Xiangjiang, he had already acquired most of the shares in Qingzhou Yingni.
But, God doesn’t fulfill people’s wishes!
Chu Huan not only came back, but also came back so quickly.
Lijiacheng's plan also needs to be readjusted.
"How many shares of Qingzhou Yingni have been acquired now?"
Compared with Li Jiacheng's loss, Shen Bi seemed much more confident. This time it was not only him, but also Li Jiacheng who took action, as well as the four major British foreign firms in Hong Kong.
Shen Bi didn't think there would be anyone more powerful than this combination in Xiangjiang at this time.
Not even Chu Huan.
"552!"
Li Jiacheng preached calmly.
"552 means 92 million Hong Kong dollars have been used!" Shen Bi silently calculated in his heart and said.
Li Jiacheng nodded and said, "Now we still have 10.8 billion Hong Kong dollars in cash, but it will definitely be impossible for us to be so smooth in the future!"
Shen Bi agreed with this point, but still said confidently, "When you just called, I had already contacted Niubijian, Shi York, John, and Qi Dezun again. The four of them will be there by then."
Take action!"
Hearing Shen Bi's answer, Li Jiacheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, then thought of Qi Dezun's situation and couldn't help but ask.
"So, Qi Dezun's suspicion can be dispelled?"
It's not just Shi York who has doubts about Qi Dezun. In fact, many people have doubts about Qi Dezun. After all, Chu Huan and Hehe International have been flirting with each other for so long. It's strange that there is no doubt!
Shen Bi nodded and said, "The suspicion on him can be temporarily eliminated. Otherwise, Chu Huan should have returned to Xiangjiang as soon as possible, not now."
The acquisition of Qingzhou Yingni was the first project that they decided on after they got together. If Chu Huan had known about it, he would have started working on it before they took action.
.
But it doesn't happen now, which means that no one has revealed their plan.
That's why Shen Bi said that his suspicion on Qi Dezun was temporarily lifted.
Li Jiacheng also breathed a sigh of relief and continued to ask, "Then our next plan is based on what we discussed before, or is it the follow-up plan we discussed when Qi Dezun was not around?"
Since they suspected Qi Dezun before this, it was naturally impossible for them to tell Qi Dezun all their plans.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Shen Bi said, "Let's first follow the plan we discussed when Qi Dezun was here. We can't bring out all our trump cards, but we have to play them out bit by bit. Only
Only in this way can we ensure that we have a continuous back-up plan!"
Li Jiacheng nodded slightly.
"By the way, there is no problem with Changshi's shares, right?" Shen Bi said.
Li Jiacheng smiled bitterly at first, then nodded and said, "No problem. Speaking of which, I would like to thank Chu Huan. If he hadn't been competing for business with Changshi in the past two years, Changshi would not have the funds to repurchase the outstanding shares."
Lots of shares!”
In this life, Li Jiacheng also had the behavior of recycling the company's shares during the stock market downturn, but this behavior was still somewhat different from that of another time and space.
In another time and space, Li Jiacheng had more things to take care of, so the proportion of shares recovered would naturally be reduced. But this time it was different. Because of the emergence of Chu Huan, many commercial acquisitions of Changshi were stopped, and at the same time, the number of shares recovered was also reduced.
Because of Chu Huan's appearance, Li Jiacheng and Shen Bi established a good cooperative relationship in advance.
This allowed Lijiacheng to receive more financial support and at the same time repurchase more Changshi shares on the stock market.
After hearing Li Jiacheng's description, Shen Bi looked satisfied.
But Li Jiacheng still had his own worries and asked him, "At this time, what we should pay more attention to is how much cash Chu Huan can use in this upcoming acquisition war!"
Only by knowing oneself and the enemy can one ensure victory. If one only knows oneself but does not know the enemy, the chance of victory will be greatly reduced.
Even though Shen Bi thought that their combination was invincible, he still understood this truth.
After pondering for a moment, Shen Bi said, "If the statistics from Fortune are correct, then Chu Huan shouldn't have much cash left in his hands now. He can't possibly delay Zhulu Commercial Center for a Qingzhou Yingni."
At the same time, his company must still retain part of its working capital to ensure the operation of each company!"
Li Jiacheng nodded slightly, but still reminded him, "But we still can't think about things so well. I've said before that Chu Huan is very evil. Even if he doesn't have much cash in his hand, he can still get a loan from the bank."
Shen Bi smiled easily and said, "The bank does not belong to Chu Huan's family. He can lend as much as he wants. Now Chu Huan already has a loan of 2.5 billion. Although this is nothing compared to his assets,
But any effort must be rewarded. It is possible to acquire Qingzhou Yingni with a loan, but it is unlikely. And don’t forget that I am on your side. He can get a loan from the bank, and we can too."
Li Jiacheng nodded slightly and said, "If this is the case, the acquisition of Qingzhou Yingni will be very successful."
Although Shen Bi said it lightly just now, he also understood that he could underestimate anyone in Xiangjiang, but Chu Huan could not be underestimated, so he did not deny Li Jiacheng's very likely judgment.
"Ah Huan, you've gone too far this time. If you're not careful, Qingzhou Yingni may have to change his master!"
In the villa in the middle of the mountain, Chu Huan secretly met Qi Dezun!
From what Qi Dezun said just now, it is obvious that Chu Huan already knew about Li Jiacheng's intention to acquire Qingzhou Yingni.
"Although Qingzhou Yingni is very important, it is not irreplaceable, but you are different. Hehe International's current identity must not be exposed. I think it is very worthwhile to use this matter to hide your identity!"
Chu Huan spoke calmly.
Chu Huan could naturally guess that Shen Bi and others would doubt Qi Dezun, so after receiving Qi Dezun's call from Japan, Chu Huan did not rush back to Xiangjiang as soon as possible.
The purpose is to make these people dispel their doubts about Qi Dezun.
There is no way a Qingzhou Yingni can compare with Wheelock!
The acquisition of Wheelock also requires the help of Hehe International. Without the help of Hehe International, the pressure that Chu Huan would face if he wanted to acquire Wheelock would be far greater than that of Qingzhou Yingni now.
Although judging from the market value at this time, Qingzhou Yingni surpassed Wheelock, but in terms of asset value, the two sides are not at the same level.
At the same time, its influence in the Hong Kong government is also different!
"Before I came to see you, I had received a call from Shen Bi, but they didn't tell me their real plan!"
Qi Dezun preached to Chu Huan, which made Qi Dezun think that he was still not completely believed by them.
Chu Huan waved his hand and said, "Actually, the so-called follow-up plan is nothing more than the four major foreign banks and HSBC being deeply involved in this matter, but this matter also gives us a better opportunity!"
Qi Dezun was stunned, and immediately thought of what Chu Huan had said to him before, "You mean the sale of Watsons?"
Chu Huan nodded slightly and said, "Yes, although Hehe International has come out of the mud now, if you want to keep pace with the other two foreign companies in this matter, the best way is to provide more funds.
Support, if you want to have this capital, you must continue to sell some properties.
Watsons is the best choice!”
Chu Huan did not mention Wheelock. After all, Wheelock at this time was also unable to save himself when the Clay Bodhisattva crossed the river.
Qi Dezun nodded. Since Chu Huan had previously decided to focus Hehe International's main business on real estate, there was nothing to discuss about the sale of Watsons.
"Then I'll take care of this matter tomorrow!"
Chu Huan waved his hand and said, "No need, I have already decided who the acquirer will be for Watsons!"
