Chu Huan was making preparations to become the majority shareholder of CMB, but Yan Chengkun had no decision of his own.
In other words, the Yan family had already made a decision after learning about Chu Huan's plan.
Yan Chengkun has one daughter and two sons, namely the eldest daughter Yan Jieling, the eldest son Yan Jieqiang, and the second son Yan Hengli.
Yan Jieling came up with the idea of Chu Huan wanting to acquire CMB at the HSBC Taipan Saya party yesterday, and Yan Jieqiang and Yan Hengli also found out about it this morning.
However, none of the three of them thought that Chu Huan would actually want to acquire CMB by acquiring Li & Fung Group and TVB.
Only be a major shareholder to ensure your own rights and interests, and at the same time will not be excessively involved in the company's operations.
If this was the only condition, the three siblings would not agree to let Chu Huan become the major shareholder of CMB, but the Yan family could cooperate with Chu Huan's Zhulu Real Estate to establish a new real estate company to jointly develop CMB's land.
This condition gave them a hard reason to refuse.
When we entered 1976, Xiangjiang's real estate industry had begun to recover. After entering 1977, Xiangjiang's real estate industry was ready to press the accelerator button.
The three siblings naturally saw the future development possibilities of the real estate industry in Xiangjiang.
Now we can jointly cooperate with Zhulu Real Estate, the largest real estate company in Hong Kong. This kind of thing is not something that others can encounter.
In the past, there was a saying in the business community in Xiangjiang that if anyone could get the support of HSBC, it would be equivalent to getting the support of the God of Wealth.
Nowadays, the business community in Xiangjiang adds an additional sentence after this sentence. If anyone can cooperate with Chu Huan, it is equivalent to doing business with the God of Wealth.
Will I still lose money if I do business with the God of Wealth?
That's impossible!
But the three siblings were not without worries. Yan Chengkun told them the whole process of his chat with Chu Huan, one of which was that if the three of them could not hold up the banner of China and Pakistan, then in the future, they
There is a possibility that Chu Huan will oust CMB’s management team.
This is their worry!
In other words, it is the worries of Yan Jiaqiang and Yan Hengli.
But this kind of worry is still not as tempting as being able to cooperate with Chu Huan to develop land.
"Daddy, I think we can cooperate with Chu Huan. Now the real estate industry in Xiangjiang is developing more and more rapidly. Many people from my hometown are coming here. In addition, there are more and more people of the right age to get married in Xiangjiang. The real estate industry in Xiangjiang is also developing rapidly.
It will definitely get better and better, plus Chu Huan is willing to cooperate with our Yan family, not China and Pakistan."
Yan Jieqiang preached seriously.
Nowadays, when talking about the Yan family, it is naturally China and Pakistan. In the eyes of many people, the two sides are equated, but in fact they know that the Yan family is not the same as China and Pakistan. If China and Pakistan cooperate with Zhulu Real Estate,
So under this situation of vested interests, a large part of the interests must be allocated to the small and medium-sized shareholders of China and Pakistan.
But if the Yan family cooperates with Chu Huan, then the situation will be different, to say the least.
Now Chu Huan's shares in CMB, plus the Yan family's shares in CMB, have exceeded CMB 51's shares. When the time comes, the two of them will be able to sell the CMB land to them at a very low price.
The newly established company will then be developed by their company, and the benefits obtained at that time will only need to be distributed according to the equity with Zhulu Real Estate.
Of course, this kind of operation requires very careful operation.
But no matter what, the benefits here are clearly visible.
Yan Hengli also agreed with his elder brother's opinion at this time, "The most important thing is that Chu Huan agreed to let this real estate company be listed. If this real estate company can be listed, according to Zhulu Real Estate's influence in the Xiangjiang real estate industry and Chu Huan's personal
With its reputation, the company’s stock price must be very high.”
All the big cakes that Chu Huan gave out were visible to them.
Even Yan Jieling, who was still being clever yesterday, said at this time, "As for Chu Huan's restrictions on us in China and Pakistan, I don't think you need to care about it. Daddy, you should believe in our abilities!"
A woman like Yan Jieling never doubts her ability.
Seeing that his three children all chose to side with Chu Huan in this matter, Yan Chengkun knew that the matter was finalized.
"Since you have already thought about it, I won't say anything else. I will convene the company's board of directors tomorrow to announce this matter. In addition, Chu Huan should also be notified of our decision today."
Having said this, Yan Chengkun looked at his three children, while Yan Jieling and the other three also sat upright at this time and called Chu Huan to inform them of the Yan family's decision. It seemed like just a simple phone call, but it was very difficult.
It may be that it represents who will be responsible for contacting Chu Huan in the future.
They are even the ones who will be in charge of the new real estate company, so they all very much hope that their father can name them.
Yan Chengkun also understood what they were thinking. After pondering for a while, he said, "Aqiang, please contact Chu Huan about this matter!"
Yan Jie Ling and Yan Hengli showed disappointed expressions at the same time, but Yan Jie Qiang smiled happily.
"The two parties have not officially cooperated yet, and it will take a long time. You don't need to think too much, just be responsible for your own affairs!"
Yan Chengkun had a panoramic view of the reactions of his three children. He had no better way to deal with this kind of thing, so he could only preach like this.
"yes!"
Yan Jieling and Yan Hengli nodded helplessly.
Yan Jieqiang smiled and said, "Daddy, don't worry, I will contact Chu Huan properly!"
Yan Chengkun raised his forehead slightly and warned, "Don't lose the style of our Yan family!"
They were cooperating with Chu Huan, not currying favor with Chu Huan, so Yan Chengkun had this reminder.
Yan Jieqiang nodded and said, "I understand, Daddy!"
Central, Chinese Walk!
Chu Huan, who was working on the documents at hand, saw Xu Yi walking into his office with a smile on his face.
"Have you received any news from the Yan family?"
Chu Huan put down his pen and asked calmly.
Xu Yi nodded and said, "I just received a call from Yan Jiiqiang. Yan Chengkun has agreed to your acquisition, boss, and will raise this matter at the CMB board meeting tomorrow morning."
Chu Huan nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile, "I thought I wouldn't receive this call until tomorrow."
Xu Yi said with some pride, "I think as long as there is no problem with their brains, they will be willing to cooperate with us."
Chu Huan didn't care about Xu Yi's flattery, but said to Xu Yi, "Since the Yan family has agreed to this matter, you will be responsible for the next contact with China and Pakistan. In addition, notify He Bingguang of Zhulu Real Estate."
, Lu Qi and the other two, ask them to get in touch with the Yan family."
The general matters have been resolved by Chu Huan, and Chu Huan will no longer care about the remaining specific matters.
As for the director of CMB, although Chu Huan will be the director, more specific details must be left to Xu Yi's secretarial department.
"Okay, I will send you the detailed process later, boss."
Xu Yi is no stranger to this. In fact, Xu Yi is responsible for many holding companies under the Jiaku family, such as Li & Fung Group and Qingzhou Yingni.
Chu Huan nodded slightly and said, "If you don't have anything else to do, go ahead and get busy!"
"yes!"
Xu Yi left Chu Huan's office.
After finishing the afternoon's work, Chu Huan left the Chinese Bank by car and returned to No. 12 Mount Galley Road.
Cao Yunshang is discussing the design drawings of the Printemps Department Store in Ginza, Tokyo with her eldest brother Cao Yunzu.
"came back?"
Seeing Chu Huan coming back, Cao Yunshang raised his head and asked with a smile, "What would you like to eat tonight?"
Chu Huan asked, "How long do you still need to be busy?"
Cao Yunzu put away his drawings and said with a smile, "It's almost done. There are just some details that need to be dealt with. I'll fly to Paris again tomorrow and take a look at the Printemps Department Store building over there. That'll be it!"
Chu Huan said, "Then let's stay at home and eat together?"
Cao Yunzu shook his head and said with a smile, "No, your sister-in-law is waiting at home. This time I went to Paris to take her on vacation with me!"
Cao Yunzu is married. Although he cannot be said to be a strict wife, he still loves his wife very much.
Chu Huan nodded indifferently, and after Cao Yunzu left, Cao Yunshang said again, "Whatever you want to eat, I'll let the kitchen prepare it."
Chu Huan said nonchalantly, "Whatever."
After notifying the kitchen to prepare dinner, Cao Yunshang sat next to Chu Huan and asked, "Has the matter between China and Pakistan been resolved?"
"It's been solved. Now the only thing left is the Kowloon bus. I hope things go smoothly there." Chu Huan took Cao Yunshang into his arms and said relaxedly.
This acquisition was indeed very smooth and did not consume many brain cells on Chu Huan's side.
Cao Yunshang buried her head in Chu Huan's arms and whispered, "Grandma came to see me today."
Chu Huan understood the meaning and smiled, "So you decided not to go to Paris with your uncle?"
Although the headquarters of Empire Fashion Group is now in Xiangjiang, its main business is still in Printemps Department Store in Paris. According to Cao Yunshang's previous arrangement, she should be in charge of things there during this time in Paris, but now her uncle and brother are going there.
Paris, Cao Yunshang did not go, obviously because of some other things.
And this matter may be the matter about the incense of the Chu family that grandma told Chu Huan before.
"Actually, I think what grandma said is right, and my mom also told me about this!"
Cao Yunshang looked at Chu Huan and asked, "Should we also put this matter on the agenda?"
Chu Huan knew the worries of the two old men. Nowadays, his business is getting bigger and bigger, and it is no longer limited to Xiangjiang. At the same time, the number of women around him seems to have not increased recently.
But no matter what, they are still a little worried. If their eldest son is not born to Cao Yunshang, it will definitely be very troublesome in the future.
This is what they think.
"what are you thinking?"
Chu Huan asked.
Cao Yunshang told Chu Huan honestly, "Although I like Xiao Zhao and the others very much, I still hope to give birth to your first child."
Chu Huan did not laugh at Cao Yunshang on this matter. This was a human thought and no one could say anything about it, so Chu Huan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely satisfy you!"
After saying that, Chu Huan directly picked up Princess Cao Yunshang.
Cao Yunshang said shyly, "It's going to be dinner soon!"
"I think the reason why I have a private chef is because I want them to cook whenever I want them to!" Chu Huan carried Cao Yunshang directly to his study room. No matter what happened, the maid at home would always cook.
People also dare not enter their own study rooms.
In fact, Chu Huan did not tell Cao Yunshang about giving birth to a child. Chu Huan actually pays great attention to this matter personally. Usually Chu Huan himself does a very good job in protecting other girls, so
It can only be that Cao Yunshang has a child first.
What surprised Chu Huan was that he had worked hard on Cao Yunshang, but now it really had no effect.
For a while, Chu Huan even wondered whether he had lost something because of his time travel and rebirth.
For this reason, when Chu Huan was in North America, he specially had a full-body examination.
The body feels great!
There is no problem, it can only be a matter of chance!
The next day!
Chu Huan met Lei Juehua at the Wuyue Meeting, who had come by appointment. Also coming with Lei Juehua was his confidante Li Jing.
"It seems that I want to congratulate you two in advance on the upcoming good things!"
Chu Huan joked to the two of them.
Li Jing smiled, and so did Lei Juehua.
"Dong Chu will definitely come to drink our wedding wine when the time comes!" Lei Juehua has already brought Li Jing to Sha Ya's farewell party. Naturally, he is planning to regard Li Jing as his marriage partner.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In fact, if Lei Juehua had not died suddenly in 1979, Li Jing would have been a model for marrying into a wealthy family in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
"That's for sure. I'm afraid Lei Sheng won't send me an invitation then!" Chu Huan said with a smile.
Lei Juehua didn't understand Chu Huan's meaning and laughed and said, "How could it be!"
After the two chatted for a while, Chu Huan finally expressed his thoughts, "Lei Sheng, the main reason I came here this time is to discuss the Kowloon Bus shares with you."
Sure enough, after hearing what Chu Huan said, the smile on Lei Juehua's face disappeared and became serious. After leaving Sha Ya's farewell party the night before yesterday, Lei Juehua also thought about Chu Huan's invitation and guessed
When Chu Huan arrives, he shouldn't simply invite himself.
But they still didn't expect that Chu Huan's target would be their family business, Kowloon Bus.
"Director Chu, the previous cooperation between you and me was very pleasant. I really didn't expect that Director Chu would want to acquire our Kowloon Bus!"
Lei Juehua preached somewhat solemnly.
Chu Huan waved his hand and said, "Lei Sheng misunderstood me. I don't want to fully acquire Kowloon Bus, and that will prevent Kowloon Bus from obtaining the franchise. My idea is just to become the major shareholder of Kowloon Bus. In Kowloon Bus,
Have your own voice!"
Lei Juehua obviously did not have Yan Chengkun's palace, so after listening to Chu Huan's words, he directly said with dissatisfaction, "Of course I know the meaning, but in this case, Mr. Chu, you still want to take control of the Yan family in the hands of our Yan family."
Take it away from Kowloon Bus.
Kowloon Bus was founded by my father and several other uncles. It is impossible for me to watch Kowloon Bus become someone else's industry in my hands!"
Chu Huan shook his head. Although he guessed that Lei Juehua's reaction would be stronger, he didn't expect that the other party's reaction would be so strong.
Fortunately, Chu Huan was well prepared and continued speaking unhurriedly, "Lei Sheng, I understand the feelings of the Lei family towards Kowloon Bus, but what I want to say is that not all of your uncles are
Everyone has the same feelings about Kowloon Bus as the Lei family.
And I also hope that you can listen to me carefully explain my views on the future development of Kowloon Bus."
The method adopted by Chu Huan to become the major shareholder of Kowloon Bus was actually the same as the method to become the major shareholder of CMB.
First, it used a price higher than the current share price of Kowloon Bus to acquire the shares of Kowloon Bus from some shareholders and became one of the major shareholders of Kowloon Bus.
This puts a certain amount of pressure on the Lei family.
Later, he was tempted by the benefits of Zhulu Real Estate and the Lei family to jointly develop high-quality land under the name of Kowloon Bus.
Finally, he said that although he has become the major shareholder of Kowloon Bus, he will still support the Lei family's management of Kowloon Bus, as long as Kowloon Bus can cooperate with his business plan.
There are pressures and incentives.
Nowadays, Chu Huan is playing tricks on the Kowloon bus.
Sure enough, after Chu Huan finished speaking, Lei Juehua fell into silence. To briefly summarize Lei Juehua's situation at this time, the situation is stronger than the person!
Chu Huan was obviously trying to reduce the dimension to attack him. With abundant cash support, Lei Juehua understood that it would be difficult for him to defeat Chu Huan.
But difficulty does not mean that Lei Juehua will give up.
He is indeed not as powerful as Yan Chengkun, but Lei Juehua is also more impulsive, even though he is already over fifty years old.
"I admit that what you said, Director Chu, is reasonable, but our Lei family does not have no chance of winning. As long as we can win more support from the board of directors, even if you, Director Chu, have more cash in your hands, it will not necessarily win.
Can beat us!
And I don’t believe that Chairman Chu can acquire Kowloon Bus regardless of the cost.”
Chu Huan nodded and said, "Of course this is the truth, but Lei Sheng, I think you still haven't seen through some things. The temptation to establish a real estate company based on Zhulu Real Estate and cooperate with Kowloon Bus is too great."
Okay, can Lei Sheng be sure that the people on the Kowloon Bus board of directors are willing to stand on your side?
In addition, if the board of directors of Kowloon Bus is really as united as Lei Sheng said, then where did the shares of Kowloon Bus in my hand come from?
To put it bluntly, except for Lei Sheng, who regards Kowloon Bus as his family business, all the other shareholders only regard it as a business.
As for another thing Lei Sheng said, if Lei Sheng competes with our Jiaku for Kowloon Bus, Jiaku will indeed have to pay more, but we are not afraid to tell Lei Sheng that we, Jiaku, can afford this price, but
If such a price falls on Lei Sheng, can the Lei family afford it?"
Lei Juehua fell into silence. Although he was relatively impulsive, it did not mean that he could not understand these principles.
It's one thing to understand it, but it's another thing to accept it.
"I can give Lei Sheng some time to think about this matter, but our Jiaku will not give up on the intermediate acquisition. We are not afraid to tell Lei Sheng that in order to complete this acquisition, our Jiaku has prepared 1 billion in cash!"
Chu Huan continued to exert pressure on Lei Juehua.
The market value of the entire Kowloon Bus Company is not that high.
When Lei Juehua heard that Chu Huan had prepared 1 billion in cash for the acquisition of Kowloon Bus, he understood Chu Huan's intensity on this matter.
The Lei family can't come up with 1 billion in cash!
Kowloon Bus is as ill-fated as CMB. In another time and space, Kowloon Bus is a company that almost every Hong Kong traveler must acquire. And all this is more because in the real world, Sun Hung Kai launched an attack on Kowloon Bus.
After the acquisition, although it was not completely successful and became the major shareholder of Kowloon Bus, it still had a great say in the matter, and the Lei family was unable to do anything about it.
The current strength of Chu Huan is far superior to that of Sun Hung Kai at that time, so there will be no difficulty.
After being silent for a long time, Lei Juehua finally spoke.
"Director Chu, I need a promise from you!"
Chu Huan was noncommittal, "Lei Sheng will tell you first, as long as the promise is within a reasonable range, I am willing to support Lei Sheng's decision."
Lei Juehua said, "What Chairman Chu just said is that even after us, we are willing to support people from the Lei family to take over Kowloon Bus. However, if the descendants of the Lei family cannot bear the responsibility of Kowloon Bus, this person will not be able to continue to operate it."
Kowloon bus!”
Chu Huan nodded and said, "That's what I mean."
Lei Juehua preached, "No one can make mistakes without being a sage. Although I have great confidence in the descendants of the Lei family, they will inevitably make some mistakes, so I hope that if these people make mistakes, Director Chu can give them some advice."
If they can't grasp the second chance they have to make corrections, then we, the children of the Lei family, will be unable to bear the heavy responsibility."
Chu Huan simply thought about it, then agreed to Lei Juehua's request and said, "Okay!"
When Lei Juehua just made this request to Chu Huan, he had actually given up resistance in his heart, because the plan proposed by Chu Huan was actually an upright conspiracy, and he had already told Lei all the steps of his plan.
Enlightenment.
But Lei Juehua still has no better way. Unless the Lei family can raise 1 billion Hong Kong dollars in a short period of time, it will be impossible to compete with Chu Huan.
Especially the plan of the new real estate company proposed by Chu Huan, Lei Juehua understood that there were very few shareholders of Kowloon Bus who could resist this temptation.
So in the end, Lei Juehua could only make the same choice as Yan Chengkun.
Agree with Chu Huan to become a major shareholder of Kowloon Bus and become the emperor of Kowloon Bus.
Lei Juehua and Feng Guojing have a good relationship. They often chat and party together, and they have also talked about the current situation of Li & Fung Group.
This was an important basis for Lei Juehua to make this decision. Chu Huan did, as he said, only have the controlling rights of the company, but the management rights and management rights were really delegated to the managers.
If this is the case, the Lei family can be regarded as saving the Kowloon Bus.
"The scope of whether he can take over is a bit too big, and no one can say for sure. I also hope that Chairman Chu can give us a detailed commitment to the Lei family. For example, only when the company's profit falls to a certain level will it be considered unqualified to take over Kowloon Bus.
otherwise"
In the end, Lei Juehua didn't say anything else, but the meaning was already clear. If Chu Huan couldn't agree on this matter, then both parties would have to deal with each other.
Chu Huan had no objection to this. He understood Lei Juehua's worries. In fact, Yan Chengkun also expressed his thoughts in this regard before.
Otherwise, even if their successor is very successful and Chu Huan says something inappropriate, they still need to give up the management rights of Kowloon Bus.
"Of course there is no problem, but if some decision-making issues arise, the problem may not be visible at the time. This kind of problem will become a big problem in the future. I will not agree with this kind of thing!"
Chu Huan also has his own requirements. Some operators' strategies cannot be identified in advance.
But it takes time to verify, just like Nokia later chose Symbian system instead of Android system.
This kind of choice cannot be seen at the time, and it can only be seen after starting.
Naturally, Chu Huan could not allow CMB and KMB to have such a problem.
Lei Juehua said helplessly, "If this is the case, do we have to bet on your decision-making and character, Director Chu!"
Chu Huan smiled and said, "I think just sitting here now is the best guarantee I can give you, Lei Sheng."
Lei Juehua was helpless. This was indeed the case. Otherwise, even if Chu Huan did not tell him about this matter today and directly initiated the acquisition of Kowloon Bus, the Lei family would not be able to do anything.
"Okay, in principle, I agree with Director Chu taking over Kowloon Bus, but you also understand that I am not the only one who has the final say in the Lei family. I want to go home and discuss this matter with my brother."
When he said this, Lei Juehua let out a sigh of relief. After making a decision in his heart, he was no longer as entangled as before.
Chu Huan nodded and said, "This is what it should be."
The negotiation between the two was nearing its end at this time.
After Lei Juehua abandoned other thoughts in his mind, he smiled and said, "I finally understand why Director Chu said that I was still willing to send invitations to Director Chu at the beginning. Now I really
You should think about this matter."
Chu Huan waved his hands and said, "From now on, our two families will be the best partners. If Lei Sheng doesn't send me an invitation then, I will be very sad!"
The two parties finally settled the matter of Kowloon Bus shares in a peaceful manner, and did not go to the extent of a hostile takeover, so everything just now was just a joke.
After the two laughed, they shook hands and said goodbye.
Lei Juehua sat in the car and said to Li Jing, "I have to go home and discuss this matter with my second brother first. It seems that we can't go shopping!"
Li Jing held Lei Juehua's hand and said, "That's right. I just hope you won't be too tired!"
Lei Juehua smiled bitterly and said, "Because Chu Huan is making such a fuss, I really feel that my heart is not feeling very well. After this matter is over, I'm going to check my body!"
