It can be said that the whole city is paying attention to the acquisition of Jardine Matheson and Land by Chinese Real Estate. Everyone wants Chinese Real Estate to launch a 24-hour live broadcast program to explain their acquisition process to the public at all times.
In this regard, it is naturally impossible for Chinese real estate developers to do this.
"How's it going? Is there any news from Chinese Real Estate?"
Emperor Huo was sitting on the sofa, looking a little excited. This was almost impossible for the experienced Emperor Huo, but now it really happened.
Huo Zhenting, Zhu Lingling and his wife stayed in the old house last night. At this time, Huo Zhenting was sitting opposite Huo Tsar, while Zhu Lingling went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
Facing the nervous Tsar Huo, Huo Zhenting was also helpless and said with a smile: "How can it be so fast? According to our speculation, it will not take until 10 o'clock in the morning for Chinese Real Estate to complete the acquisition of Jardine and Land.
Later."
Emperor Huo smiled bitterly and said: "If Ah Huan can complete the acquisition of Jardine and Land, then it will mean that a new page in the business history of Hong Kong has been opened. How can I not be nervous!"
Huo Zhenting actually understands his father's current mood. After all, he saw with his own eyes how his father was bullied by the Hong Kong government and the British consortium in Hong Kong.
"Daddy, if Ah Huan can really complete the acquisition of Yihe and Land this time, I wonder if you can discuss with Ah Huan about Starlight Bank? I believe that as long as you ask, Ah Huan will
Bian will definitely agree!"
What happened to Xingguangxing will always be a pain to Tsar Huo in the Hong Kong business community.
However, after hearing what Huo Zhenting said, Emperor Huo waved his hand and said: "Forget it, A-Huan has only acquired commercial buildings in Xiangjiang in recent years, and has never sold commercial buildings. We don't want to embarrass A-Huan."
After finishing speaking, Emperor Huo told Huo Zhenting: "You are not allowed to talk to Ah Huan about this matter, do you understand?"
Huo Zhenting smiled bitterly and nodded: "I know, don't worry!"
At this point, Huo Zhenting paused and said, "How about I call Xu Yi now and ask them about the situation there? If there is anything that needs help, we can know it as soon as possible?"
Emperor Huo didn't let Huo Zhenting call Chu Huan before because he was worried that it would delay Chu Huan's plan at that time, but now that Chu Huan is not in Xiangjiang, Emperor Huo is indeed worried that Xu Yi will not be able to sustain the situation.
.
So after thinking briefly, he said: "Yes, but don't call Xu Yi, call Yun Shang directly. A Huan left Xiangjiang, and Yun Shang must be responsible for this matter."
"Forget it!" Just when Huo Zhenting was about to make this call, Huo Tsar suddenly said: "Don't ask Yun Shang about specific things on the phone. Tell her that we are going to the Chinese Bank now.
If something really happens over there, we can work together to find a solution as soon as possible!"
At this time, Emperor Huo also stood up and started to put on his coat.
Huo Zhenting also knew that he would definitely not be able to persuade his father at this time, so he called Cao Yunshang without saying anything. As a result... he couldn't get through at all, and the line there was busy.
Holding the phone, Huo Zhenting looked at his father helplessly.
"Then let's go there first, and we'll talk about everything later!" Tsar Huo said immediately.
Huo Zhenting nodded and prepared to go to the Chinese Bank with Huo Tsar Huang.
At this time, Zhu Lingling came over, saw the two of them, and said curiously: "Father, breakfast is ready, what are you doing?"
Emperor Huo said nonchalantly: "You can eat at home, Ating and I are going out!"
Huo Zhenting gave Zhu Lingling a look, and Zhu Lingling left the living room.
Just as Huo Tsarong and Huo Zhenting's car drove out of the villa gate, three cars stopped in front of them.
Emperor Huo frowned when he saw this. He didn't like people blocking his car at this time.
Huo Zhenting got out of the car and prepared to negotiate with the other party.
As a result, three old people and two young people got out of the three cars that stopped. They were Mr. He, Mr. Mo Qianqi, and Mr. Yue Daoqi from Haojiang.
As well as Mr. He's fifth son, He Chuhua, and Mo Youheng, a descendant of the Mo family who has a good relationship with Chu Huan.
Huo Tsarhuang, who was sitting in the car, was stunned when he saw them. Then he got down from the car and asked aloud: "Three brothers, why did you come here in person?"
Mr. He said: "How could we not come over for such a big deal like A Huan's acquisition of Jardine and Land? Last night we called A Huan and Yun Shang said that he had gone to England. The three of us were worried about that Yun Sang girl.
I couldn't handle such a big scene in Xiangjiang, so I came here."
Hearing what Mr. He said, Huo Tsar Huang said with a smile: "We thought of going together. I am preparing to go to the Chinese Bank now, how about we three brothers come together?"
Mr. He and others didn’t waste any time, got into the car and said, “Let’s go!”
.
"I didn't expect that even Mr. He and the other three were here!" Huo Zhenting, who got back in the car, looked at the car of Mr. He and others that left first, and couldn't help but say.
"If you have good luck, you will get more help, but if you have bad luck, you will get less help. It is appropriate for them to come here at this time." Huo Tsar nodded.
All the media in Xiangjiang know that if there are no accidents, today will be the decisive day for Chinese Real Estate to acquire Jardine and Land. Until now, Jardine has not issued any statement on this matter.
No matter what they are doing, it can be judged that in the commercial field, the Keswick family must no longer be able to compete with the acquisition of Chinese Real Estate, so at this time, they all came to the downstairs of Chinese Real Estate, trying to
Know the outcome of the matter as soon as possible.
But what disappoints them is that so far, neither Jiaku nor Chinese Real Estate has made any statement on this matter.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But they are not completely disappointed, because so far they have captured countless materials at the entrance of the Chinese Bank.
"I never thought that the Chinese-funded consortium in Hong Kong could be so united. Did you see that those who just entered were Feng Jingxi, Feng Yongfa and his son from Sun Hung Kai Securities? Counting them, the heads of numerous Chinese-funded consortiums in Hong Kong have already arrived.
There are no fewer than five, right?”
A reporter held a camera in his hand and preached with some excitement.
"This matter is not just a matter of their unity. I heard that Chu Huan has cooperated with many consortiums in Xiangjiang this year and started investing overseas. This time these people are here mainly because of the acquisition of Jardine Land.
This person is Chu Huan, if it were another person, there would definitely not be such a scene!"
Some reporters analyzed the current situation.
"Investment overseas? How come we don't know about it?"
"I don't know the specifics. I just heard from people that the scale of overseas investment is very large. Maybe we won't know the specific situation until these consortiums announce their respective financial reports in the future!"
The investments made by Chu Huan and Xiangjiang's consortium in Australia and Canada were not announced to the outside world. Not only did Chu Huan not want this matter to be known to the outside world and widely reported, but Chu Huan's cooperative consortia also did not want more people to know about it.
People know.
Hiding wealth has always been an essential quality for Chinese businessmen.
It is precisely for this reason that the companies that Chu Huan cooperated with did not invest in the names of their current consortiums, but in private names, so the reporters on the scene wanted to know this in the financial reports of these consortiums.
The idea of things is definitely going to come to nothing.
"Look, there's someone here again!"
At this time, the reporters who were guarding the entrance of the Chinese Bank suddenly saw four Rolls-Royces slowly driving to the entrance of the Chinese Bank.
Seeing this situation, the reporters at the scene knew that a big shot must be here again.
Everyone has their cameras ready and wants to take pictures of those who are there at the first possible moment.
The car door opens!
Mr. He got out of the car first. When they first saw Mr. He, the reporters in Xiangjiang were a little stunned. They felt that the old man in front of them looked familiar, but they couldn't remember who he was for a while.
Then came Mo Qianqi, Yue Daoqi and others.
This made the reporters at the scene even more confused. After all, Mo Qianqi and Yue Daoqi were more low-key than Mr. He.
But when they saw Huo Tsar getting out of the last car, they immediately reacted.
Just as these reporters frantically stepped forward to prepare for interviews, the security guards at the entrance of the Chinese Bank had already come out to maintain order and escorted Huo Tsarhuang and others into the Chinese Bank, so that the reporters could not interview anything.
"When I go, it turns out that the three wealthy families of Haojiang and Emperor Huo of Xiangjiang are here?"
"When did Chu Huan have such a good relationship with Mr. He from Haojiang?"
"This is really a major alliance between Xiangjiang and Haojiang Chinese capital consortiums. I have a hunch that there will be big news today!"
After saying these words, he was directly despised by the reporters on the scene. Who didn't know that there would be big news today!
"By the way, why haven't you seen Chu Huan? With so many people coming, Chu Huan will come down to greet them anyway, right?"
Not many people in Xiangjiang know about Chu Huan's current stay in London.
"Yes, we came here early in the morning. We saw Cao Yunshang driving over, but we didn't see Chu Huan coming with her, right?"
"Could it be that Chu Huan was in the boudoir of one of his confidante at such a critical moment?"
"What are you thinking about? You also know that this is a critical moment. It is not an exaggeration to say that this is an acquisition that will change the business structure of Xiangjiang. How could Chu Huan be so ignorant of propriety?"
Regardless of the commotion outside, Chu Huan's office at the Chinese Bank was very lively at this time.
Led by people from the secretarial department, Huo Shahuang and his party arrived at Chu Huan's office. Cao Yunshang had already received the notice from the front desk and was already greeting the four of them personally in front of Chu Huan's office.
"Uncle Huo, Uncle He, Uncle Mo, Uncle Yue, why did you come here together!"
As the representative of the four people, Tsar Huo smiled and said: "We were worried about something unexpected happening here, so we came over. How about it? Is there any problem?"
Cao Yunshang smiled and said: "No, everything is going relatively smoothly now!"
As he spoke, he invited the seven of them into the office.
When Emperor Huo and his party came to the office, they were a little stunned when they saw everyone in the office, and then they laughed out loud.
The people present were all acquaintances, including Bao Yukang from Global Shipping, Kwok Desheng and his son from Sun Hung Kai, Zheng Yutong and his son from New World, Feng Jingxi and his son from Sun Hung Kai Securities, Tang Jiqian and his son from Nanhai Textile, and the retired Kan Yueqiang.
"I thought we were the first ones here, but I didn't expect you guys to be here earlier than us!"
Emperor Huo smiled.
Everyone present had been numbed by the people who kept coming in, and they all stood up to greet Huo Tsarhuang and others. Guo Desheng preached.
"At this time, everyone can't sit still, and they also want to come over and see if there is anything they can do to help Ah Huan!"
Mr. He smiled angrily and said: "With everyone working together to help, I believe A Huan will be able to shock the whole of Xiangjiang this time!"
Cao Yunshang said at this time: "Uncles, please sit down first. I have asked Xu Yi to prepare tea. When you come, we will have peace of mind!"
Emperor Huo smiled and said: "Yunshang, please don't put your hat on us. We are just standing next to you and Ah Huan and waving flags and shouting about this matter. It is you and your wife who are really doing the work!"
Mr. He also said: "Yes, but we people will not sit here anymore. You will definitely still have a lot of things to do here. We are just causing trouble to you by staying in this room. Yun
Girl Chang, just ask the people in the company to prepare a conference room for us, and leave this place for your work!"
Hearing what Mr. He said, everyone in the office also stood up. With so many of them sitting here, although Chu Huan's office would not become crowded, it would indeed delay Cao Yunshang and others from working.
Cao Yunshang didn't say anything to this, because the worries of Mr. He and others do exist. With so many of them here, there are indeed some things that are not convenient to talk about in front of them, even if these people want to help them now.
provide help.
Cao Yunshang personally invited Mr. He and others into the conference room, and said with a smile: "Everyone, after this matter is over, I will ask Brother Huan to thank you all properly."
Huo Shahuang smiled and said: "This is what we should do, and to be honest, if the acquisition of Jardine Land can be successfully completed, it is us who should thank A Huan properly, it was him who gave us the trip
There is a new way out."
Mr. He said: "Yes, girl Yun Shang, you and your wife have done a lot of things that Chinese businessmen in Hong Kong want to do. Everyone should thank you."
After finishing speaking, Mr. He suddenly smiled and said to Bao Yugang: "Sheng Bao, I'm not saying that your Hong Leong International's acquisition of Wharf is not influential enough!"
Although Yugang Bao surpasses Mr. He in terms of wealth, Yungang Bao must also surpass Mr. He in terms of international influence.
But in Chinese society, these things sometimes do not represent the status of two people.
Taking Chu Huan as an example, it is no exaggeration to say that Chu Huan at this time far surpassed everyone in this room in terms of financial resources and influence. However, when Chu Huan faced Huo Tsar, Mr. He and others, he still
It's very respectful.
This is the upbringing engraved in the bones of Chinese people!
Mr. He asked with a smile: "I haven't congratulated you yet. By winning the Wharf, we have completely completed the strategic shift of global shipping. This time, we don't have to worry about what will happen to the shipping industry!"
Bao Yugang smiled and said: "This time it is also thanks to A Huan's help. If it weren't for A Huan, it's hard to say whether we could have taken down the Wharf!"
At this moment, the door of the conference room was pushed open again, and everyone followed the sound, and it turned out that Cao Wenjin and Hu Yingxiang walked in together.
"I saw Brother Cao as soon as I got off the bus, and then I found out from Mr. Xu's side that everyone is here, but I didn't expect so many people to come today!"
Hu Yingxiang laughed and preached.
Cao Wenjin looked at his daughter with relief. He had just arrived in Xiangjiang. There had been some things happening in Singapore before, which made Cao Wenjin unable to escape.
"You go ahead and do your work first. I will greet these guests for you. In addition, I have told Xu Yi that if anyone comes, they will be brought directly here. It just so happens that we all have a good gathering here!"
When Cao Yunshang saw Cao Wenjin coming over, her tense nerves relaxed slightly. Admittedly, the acquisition of Jardine and Land was not the largest acquisition project she and Chu Huan had ever experienced, but it was undeniable that the acquisition of Jardine and Land
The degree of importance is the highest, and more importantly, it is also related to their entire business layout.
All this made Cao Yunshang feel nervous.
"Thank you, Daddy. I'll go and get busy first!" Cao Yunshang then nodded to everyone in the conference room and left.
"One wave is stronger than the other!"
After Cao Yunshang left the conference room, Zheng Yutong couldn't help but lecture to Cao Wenjin.
"Brother Cao, you gave birth to a good daughter and found a good son-in-law!"
After Cao Wenjin sat down, he smiled and said: "Young people are always more impetuous than us. They don't have too many things to look forward and backward like when we do things, but they are a little impulsive after all.
, this matter should be planned better, the result may be better!”
After hearing this, everyone just smiled and said to Cao Wenjin that they must have been in Versailles!
On the other hand, the matters at the Chinese Bank have also been reported to the Jardine headquarters.
"Nowadays, most of the reputable people in the Xiangjiang Chinese Capital Group have arrived at the Chinese Bank. It is obvious that they are waiting for an accident that may occur at any time, and then take action to help Chu Huan!"
Bao Fuda told Newbijian about the affairs of the Chinese Bank.
At this time, both Newbijian and Bao Fuda felt very helpless.
Because by this time, everything actually has nothing to do with them.
Again, at this time, the matter of Chinese Real Estate acquiring Jardine and Land is no longer something Xiangjiang can decide.
If Henry Keswick wanted to keep Jardine and Land, he must get support from the British side, and this was where Newburgh and Bowfield were helpless.
In that field, the two of them have no right to speak.
"Just go, we can't change anything with or without them!" Newbijian said helplessly.
"Yes!" Bao Fuda also said helplessly: "What I didn't expect is that at this time, even Shi Huaiya of the Swire Group chose to support Chu Huan!"
According to Henry Keswick's instructions, Newbijian had already visited Swire, but before he could go, he received a notice from Swire stating that the board of directors of Hefu Investment would be convened.
What was discussed at the board meeting was actually to sell Land's 5% stake in Hefu to Chinese Land.
Niubijian naturally opposed this decision with all his strength, but at this time, after Hefu lost the support of the Schweizer family, their shareholding was already far less than 50%, so it was useless to do the opposite.
On the board of directors, there is also a representative of Chu Huan, the initiator.
"You don't have to be too depressed. This matter is not over yet. As long as Mr. Keswick can get support in England, it is impossible for Chinese Real Estate to acquire Jardine and Land."
Newbijian persuaded Bao Fuda.
Bao Fuda could be said to be mentally and physically exhausted at this time. He never thought that he would encounter such a thing, first losing the Wharf, and now buying land!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Finally, Bao Fuda murmured: "I hope everything goes well for Mr. Keswick!"
Newbijian thought he was cheering Bao Fuda up, but also seemed to be telling himself: "It will definitely go well!"
At this moment, everyone is looking at Fengwu Securities, wanting to know how their acquisition went!
Just before the end of this morning, Wen Mingzhang of Chinese Real Estate received a call from Feng Securities. They had obtained 51% of the shares of Jardine and Land respectively. In other words, in name, now Jardine and Land
The group already belongs to Chu Huan.
"It's done, it's done, according to statistics we have now completed the acquisition of these two groups!"
Chen Tao shouted excitedly, any Xiangjiang person knows what it means to complete the acquisition of Jardine and Land.
"Great!" Wen Mingzhang also shouted excitedly, "I will go to the chairman's office now to tell my wife about this!"
Chen Tao said: "I have already called!"
However, Wen Mingzhang didn't care about this. He still had to go there as soon as possible. After all, the acquisition of these two groups was only completed in name!
But it's only in name.
Because many things are not as simple as they seem.
Sure enough, after Wen Mingzhang arrived at Chu Huan's office, he did not see any smiles on the faces of Cao Yunshang and others.
"What's wrong?" Wen Mingzhang asked carefully. What he was most worried about at this time was an accident.
Xu Yi spoke in a deep voice.
"Just now, the Hong Kong government suddenly called and said that out of consideration for the Hong Kong stock market and judgment on the boundaries of monopoly, it has temporarily suspended the acquisition of Jardine Matheson and Land by Chinese Real Estate.
As for the final outcome, a definite answer can only be given after consultation by the Hong Kong government."
"What?" Wen Mingzhang's mood was like a roller coaster, falling from the peak to the bottom in an instant, and he said loudly: "How can this be done?"
"Not only that, the Hong Kong government notifying us of this matter at this time is obviously trying to catch us off guard!"
Xu Yi also preached with some anger.
"Madam, we must not just let this matter go. We have completed the acquisition of Jardine Matheson and Land and invested nearly 30 billion Hong Kong dollars in cash. If it is stopped at this time, there is a high possibility that more will happen later.
What a big surprise!”
Wen Mingzhang couldn't help but preach to Cao Yunshang.
Cao Yunshang said a little irritably: "Of course I know this. Now Wu Xiaohui has gone to investigate this matter. I believe that the specific reasons will be reported back soon!"
At this time, Cao Yunshang had reason to be agitated. In their opinion, because of the previous meeting at Luo Bishi's residence, it had been shown that this matter should not cause any surprises in Xiangjiang itself, but they did not expect that it would happen now.
There was still an accident on the side of the Hong Kong government!
Just at this time, Cao Wenjin walked in. Seeing that the atmosphere in the office was a bit depressed, he said aloud: "I already know what happened."
After the Hong Kong government called, Cao Yunshang asked people to tell the news to those in the conference room.
The Hong Kong government's sudden decision made everyone in the conference room feel uproar, but also felt that it was natural. After all, the acquisition of Jardine Matheson and Land should not be as simple as it appeared.
"Yun Shang, you don't have to worry. After Huo Tsar Emperor and others learned about this matter, they immediately started to contact their relationship. I believe they will know the reason soon. And according to our analysis, it is not certain to make this decision.
It's the Hong Kong government. After all, everyone has contributed before this, plus Ah Huan's relationship with the Hong Kong government.
So this decision is most likely the result of Henry Keswick's activities in England. You should know the influence of the Keswick family in England. It would be really strange if they didn't take any measures at all!"
After being comforted by Cao Wenjin, Cao Yunshang reluctantly breathed a sigh of relief.
"I understand, thank you Daddy!"
"Why are you being so polite to me?" Cao Wenjin asked, "Should you call Ah Huan now? He must be waiting for the situation in Xiangjiang!"
Cao Yunshang shook his head and said: "Wait a little longer, at least you have to know the cause of this matter before you call Brother Huan!"
Cao Wenjin did not leave the office this time, but accompanied Cao Yunshang to wait for the news.
Wu Xiaohui and the Charter King walked into the office almost at the same time.
It can be seen from the expressions of the two people that they must have found the root cause of the matter!
However, Bao Yugang still waited for Wu Xiaohui to report the matter.
"Madam, we have inquired clearly about what happened. The order this time was not what the Hong Kong government wanted to issue, but was done after receiving a direct notification from the British side."
Wu Xiaohui did not hesitate and directly told Cao Yunshang the results of his investigation.
Bao Yugang also said at this time: "This is the same as the news we have heard. The Hong Kong government is actually just acting as a mouthpiece this time. The real decision on this matter is London!"
After learning that this was the reason, Cao Wenjin said to Cao Yunshang: "Okay, now that the cause of the matter has been found, tell A Huan the news. I believe that since A Huan is already in London, she will
Find a solution to this matter!"
Bao Yugang also said to Xu Yi: "Mr. Xu, please find me an overseas phone number. I also have some connections in London. Maybe I can help Ah Huan with something!"
