As luck would have it, when Li Jianhui and others walked out of the private room, they saw Shen Bi and others coming out of the private room at the other end of the corridor.
The relationship between the two parties was secretly not very good, but on the surface they were still very friendly. The two parties walked towards each other from both ends of the corridor towards the elevator in the middle.
"Mr. Shen Bi, He Sheng, Li Sheng, what a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet you here. If I knew you were also eating here, I would invite you to come with me. Thank you for your support and letting me Get the same shares for less money.”
Although Shen Bi wanted Li Jianhui to go bankrupt in his heart, he still responded very politely: "Wheelock's current achievements are entirely due to Li Sheng, and congratulations to Wheelock Group for obtaining HK$860 million in financing.
Although it is still a little short of one billion Hong Kong dollars, I believe that under the leadership of Li Sheng, Wheelock Group will find better and better results in the future."
The words spoken by both parties seemed to be polite, but underneath they were filled with sarcasm and sarcasm.
If the Xin Jian Department wants to become the overlord of the business community in Hong Kong, then HSBC is the mountain that must be moved away.
From the moment Li Jianhui acquired Wheelock Group, there was no room for relaxation between the Xin Jian Group and HSBC. HSBC would never be willing to give up its throne as the uncrowned king of Hong Kong.
During the expansion process of Xinjian Department, HSBC will definitely do everything possible to block it and not give Xinjian Department the opportunity to expand rapidly.
After Li Jianhui and Shen Bi exchanged some sarcastic words, he said to Li Chaoren next to Shen Bi: "Li Sheng, Changshi is currently developing very well. It is one of the five Chinese-owned enterprises in Xiangjiang Real Estate and its future is unlimited. .
I hope Li Sheng can understand which side he should be on, Xiangjiang is no longer the same as it used to be, and the era when the British-funded consortium in Xiangjiang dominated Xiangjiang is gone forever."
I don’t know if Li Chaoren was angry because of Li Jianhui’s words. At least on the surface he was quite calm.
"Hong Kong is the city shared by millions of Hong Kong citizens. As for how an enterprise can develop, it is also the support and choice of millions of citizens.
A city with only one kind of capital is destined to be unable to prosper. I also believe that win-win cooperation is the way to go in business.
If one day, a group controls the economy of Hong Kong, it will definitely be a disaster for the development of Hong Kong and the citizens of Hong Kong."
Li Jianhui couldn't believe that these words came from this person's mouth. Was this forced by the situation, or was this person not yet a hero and not having that idea in his heart?
He originally wanted to say a few more words, but the elevator door had already opened and he had to stop what he was about to say.
Li Jianhui and others had no intention of showing courtesy to Shen Bi and others, and they did not even invite Shen Bi and others to join them.
Saying farewell and saying goodbye, as the elevator door closed, only Shen Bi and the other three were left here.
At this time, their faces were not as relaxed as before, and all of them had extremely solemn expressions.
They knew very well that Li Jianhui and the others would never celebrate the Wheelock Group's financing. To put it mildly, this Wheelock Group's financing could definitely be considered a failure.
The original plan was to raise one billion Hong Kong dollars, but only 860 million Hong Kong dollars were raised, which was a full 140 million less than planned. How can we celebrate with dignity?
At such a time, these people gathered together, especially Feng Jingxi, the second largest shareholder of Hutchison Whampoa, which can only explain one problem. Li Jianhui and his company's actions on Hutchison Whampoa may have already secured victory.
Stanley Ho said in a deep voice: "Shen Bi, I have to carefully consider the matter regarding Hutchison Whampoa. If you, HSBC, have other trading candidates, you can also trade with them."
…
Li Jianhui, who had already left, was unaware of the situation here. That afternoon, several parties continued to purchase Hutchison Whampoa's shares on the stock market.
In order to get these retail investors and some institutions to sell out the stocks in their hands, they do not just buy them. They often smash the market, causing Hutchison Whampoa's stock price to fluctuate up and down, and to fluctuate violently.
Li Jianhui wants to win Hutchison Whampoa at a low cost, but some people are not willing to see him succeed like this.
Just that afternoon, a strange phenomenon occurred in the stock market. Several parties were caught by a force, which caused them to quickly stop their actions and immediately reported it to Li Jianhui.
Following this, there was also market news that Xinjian Investment, Dao Heng Bank and other institutions close to Li Jianhui were absorbing a large number of shares in Hutchison Whampoa Group.
In order to ensure its control over Hutchison Whampoa, HSBC began to repurchase Hutchison Whampoa shares on the market to increase its shareholding ratio.
The Hong Kong stock market has been in turmoil this year, with Wheelock in January and Hong Kong Electric in early February. Before February is over, there is another news about Hutchison Whampoa.
The one who caused the storm was the legendary boy, one of the ten outstanding young people in Hong Kong this year and a young leader in the business community in Hong Kong.
However, with the case of Heung Kong Electric, many investors and investment institutions are unsure whether Li Jianhui really wants to seize control of Hutchison Whampoa.
If they are like Xiangjiang Electric Light, they will become leeks again and be ruthlessly harvested by the bankers behind them.
Now those investors and some investment institutions holding shares in Heung Kong Electric have been completely trapped, making them reluctant to part with them now.
From the highest level to now, the drop has exceeded 50%. How could those who took over the market at the high level be willing to leave the market like this?
The current market situation in Hutchison Whampoa is not good to begin with. If it happens again, they are not sure whether their hearts can bear it.
However, there are always some bold gamblers in the stock market. Since Hutchison Whampoa is so big, it can fall as low as it should. They began to join in the scramble for Hutchison Whampoa shares.
As a result, Hutchison Whampoa, which had been fluctuating and falling for nearly two weeks, began to rebound strongly. It had already fallen below HK$8, but it only took five minutes to return to HK$8, and it continued to rise.
Seeing the changes in the stock market, Li Jianhui was worried that HSBC would grab enough chips from behind and could only allow several parties to make full acquisitions in the stock market.
His actions can only be kept secret until today. After the market closes in the afternoon, several major institutions, including Xinjian Investment, need to declare their Hutchison Whampoa shares to the Hong Kong Exchange and make them public to shareholders.
The more chips he grabs this afternoon, the greater his chance of controlling Hutchison Whampoa.
Looking at the skyrocketing stock price, retail investors and small and medium-sized investment institutions who were still hesitant before could no longer bear it anymore and rushed in one after another.
They know very well that if such a situation occurs, the rumors are probably true, otherwise the stock cannot rise in a straight line, and the selling orders will be swept away as soon as the orders are placed.
Since many systems in the Hong Kong stock market are not perfect at present, shareholders do not need to make an announcement in advance to reduce their stock holdings. They can only reduce their holdings by a certain amount and report it to the exchange after the market closes that day.
So when Li Jianhui and countless investors from small and medium-sized investment companies grabbed enough shares, they also had the power to start selling their own shares in small batches.
