Chapter five hundred and forty-four cooperation with each other
Wheelock House, Keswick and Cavendish came to Li Jianhui's office together.
After sitting down, Cavendish was the first to speak out: "Mr. Li, our Cavendish family and several allies have been very happy to cooperate with the Xinjian Department. This time we entered the Xiangjiang market, we did not intend to cooperate with the Xinjian Department.
It means Donghua will compete for the market.
For this investment, we are using Xiangjiang as a springboard to wait for opportunities to enter the northern market and the Australian market.
I came here specifically to visit Mr. Li today just to explain it to you and avoid it affecting our relationship."
Keswick also said that British-funded enterprises in Hong Kong have no intention of competing for the market with the industries under the Tung Wah Association. In the future, industries such as Jardine and Swire will focus more on the Commonwealth market and will not focus on Greater China and Southeast Asia.
Scale expansion.
At the same time, it was also stated in terms of electricity that after the merger, the China Power Group will no longer continue to deploy the four districts of Sai Kung, Yuen Long, North District, and Tai Po that Tung Wah Hui is focusing on developing. At the same time, the Tuen Mun and Shatin electricity markets will also be ceded to Xin.
Xiangjiang Electric Power, a subsidiary of Jianxin, hopes that the two companies can coexist harmoniously.
Obviously the Rose Consortium and Hong Kong British-funded enterprises currently have no intention of standing against the Donghua Society, otherwise they would not make concessions in the market.
"I have always hoped that everyone can cooperate and win-win, rather than suppress and exclude. I personally welcome Rose Capital's entry into Xiangjiang. I am also very happy to see our Xiangjiang enterprise become bigger and stronger, and I also hope that our two sides will cooperate.
I also thank Nanjiang Association for its concessions in the market. I also promise that our Xiangjiang Electric Power Company will only enter the market in these six districts and will not cross the border to compete for the market.
At the same time, we also hope to negotiate with CLP Power to transfer the enterprises and households in several districts that are already using CLP Power Group to transmit power to our Xiangjiang Electric Power Company."
As for Li Jianhui's hope that Xiangjiang Electric Power Company would monopolize the market in the Sixth District, Keswick had discussed it internally before Keswick came. If Li Jianhui mentioned it, he would give it to Xiangjiang Electric Power Company. During this period, they tried their best to avoid conflicts with Donghua Society.
Because neither party wanted to be hostile at this time, today's communication was quite pleasant and a lot of cooperation was achieved.
Although some are symbolic, such as the Far East Shipping Group ordering a container ship from Huangpu Shipping Company, and the Jardine Group ordering 20 Kirin cars from Yushi Group.
Huangpu Iron and Steel Group purchased 100,000 tons of iron ore from Rio Tinto Group, and Aohua Trading Group ordered 50,000 tons of sugar and 100,000 tons of soybeans from the Rose Consortium.
After these talks, Cavendish said half-jokingly: "Mr. Li, it is said that the heads of well-known Chinese-owned enterprises in Xiangjiang held a meeting in the conference hall of the Xianghua Hotel yesterday afternoon, and the topic was aimed at us.
Rose Capital enters the Hong Kong market.
We came to invest for mutual benefit and win-win results. We are also optimistic about the northern market and hope that investing in Xiangjiang companies will make it easier for them to enter the northern market. We have no intention of targeting Chinese-owned enterprises.
But some people even describe us as savage beasts, and even set us up as the opposite of the Chinese, which really makes us feel a little scared and uneasy."
Li Jianhui was still unclear. These people probably had obtained some information about yesterday afternoon's meeting from some channels, and he did not go around the bush with Cavendish.
It directly stated that Xiangjiang's Chinese-owned enterprises had no intention of uniting against the Rose Consortium. As for what Cavendish said, it was just an individual's opinion.
However, it is also implicitly stated that the Rose Consortium chose such an opportunity to enter the Hong Kong market with great fanfare, which indeed makes people wonder whether there are other ulterior motives in this.
He also warned Cavendish and Keswick that Donghua would not object to the management and development of the enterprise. If it caused social unrest, don't blame Donghua for turning against them.
Guyong is the home of the Donghua Society. Anyone who creates chaos here is the enemy of the Donghua Society, and the Donghua Society will inevitably retaliate.
"Please rest assured, Mr. Li, we are here to invest to make money, and now, whether it is our Cavendish family or other nobles, it is just an honor, and we are not qualified to interfere in political affairs. These things are the government's concern.
Things, our families care more about interests.
In the market of one billion people in the north, many multinational companies are now thriving, and we are no exception, so naturally we will not do anything to cut ourselves off."
Regardless of whether Cavendish's words are true or false, at least for now, there is no major conflict between the two parties, and cooperation is even far greater than disputes.
Li Jianhui may also choose to be hostile to the Rose Consortium because of something that has not yet happened, and it is even less likely to give up the market in England.
"I hope it is true as Mr. Cavendish said, and I also hope that the friendship with the Cavendish, Bute, Grosvenor and other families can be maintained for a long time.
In fact, everyone knows very well that it is impossible for your government to fight a national war in the Far East, and the attitude of the North is there. It only taught South Vietnam a hard lesson two years ago. Its determination to maintain its territory is very firm, and now it is even more
It's just a matter of how to talk.
At this time, everyone is focusing on development and maintaining social stability. This will be the best stepping stone for everyone to enter the northern market.
If you want to stir up trouble, I'm afraid it will be difficult to develop in the north in the future. You must know that there can never be a completely free market at any time. As long as the upper management in the north wants to, even the world's top companies can only
opt out."
In fact, if it were not for Li Jianhui and the Tung Wah Society, Keswick and others might have really intended to create some chaos.
It's just that with the current strength and influence of the Donghua Association, no matter how hard they try, as long as Li Jianhui and others stand up, they will be able to calm down quickly, so why should they do something thankless?
The Rose Consortium really didn't mean to cause trouble this time, but they definitely have ideas in terms of market competition, but they won't target the Donghua Association for the time being.
I came to visit Li Jianhui this time in the hope of reaching an agreement with the Donghua Association so that they can spend their main energy elsewhere.
After the two left, Chen Yulian said: "Jianhui, I'm afraid the words of these two people are not credible. I guess they are mainly here for the Greater China and Southeast Asian markets, otherwise they don't need it at all."
To enter the Hong Kong market on a large scale, it would be better to directly choose London or Australia.”
"Of course I know this, but our main focus is still on the American consortium. It is not wise to break up the relationship with the Rose Consortium at this time.
For now, let’s take a look at the opponent’s subsequent actions. If they don’t affect us, we don’t need to pay attention to them. If the opponent is really planning to turn friends into enemies, we will be afraid of them.
Over the years, we have invested so much money in building relationships in England that we have nowhere to spend it. Even if we are on the opposite side of these nobles, it will not be easy for them to suppress our industry in England."
In the past few years, Lanfeng Holdings and even the Donghua Association have established a deep friendship with the conservative party. If these forces want to find any excuse to use the government to suppress the Xin Jian relationship, it can only be said that they are thinking too much.
If he can help these families take off, Li Jianhui will naturally have a way to make them fall to the ground. Despite the rapid development of the Rose Consortium in recent years, there are also many problems inside, and in England, the Rose Consortium is not without its opponents.
