Thinking of the charter king's courage to acquire Wharf, Li Jianhui agreed to the price proposed by Gao Shunhang.
Others saw that Gao Shunhang had already reached a deal with Li Jianhui, and they knew that Li Jianhui's hold on the Wheelock Group was basically stable.
Under such circumstances, they did not have much choice, and one after another expressed their willingness to transfer their shares at the same price.
Li Jianhui did not embarrass these people and expressed his willingness to trade at this price.
When Qiu Deba saw Li Jianhui and Gao Shunhang walking out of the conference room with smiles on their faces, he knew that his plan to take over Wheelock Group had completely failed.
At this time, he had no intention of continuing to stay at Wheelock Group. He did not want to face Li Jianhui's ridicule.
Moreover, he wanted to sell his shares as much as possible before the news spread to reduce his losses.
It's a pity that Li Jianhui was determined to let Qiu Deba's money be trapped this time. The contract had just been signed and he immediately asked Jiashi to report it.
Because of Li Jianhui and the acquisitions in the stock market in the past two days, Xinjian Investment Company's total shareholding in Wheelock Group has reached 48.6%, almost establishing a victory.
As a result, Wheelock Group's shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange fell in response. Institutions and retail investors who had been waiting for Wheelock's stock to rise have sold their shares.
As a result, Wheelock, with a total market value of more than 2.7 billion Hong Kong dollars, only had more than 2.5 billion Hong Kong dollars left in less than an hour. This was because the market had closed, otherwise it might have fallen even worse.
An angry Qiu Deba held a press conference and accused Li Jianhui of being arbitrary and disrespectful of other shareholders.
At the same time, he expressed his own views on the acquisition, claiming that Li Jianhui relied on despicable means to achieve this victory and did not dare to compete fairly with him.
Li Jianhui doesn't care how the outside world views him, as long as he ensures that Wheelock is in his hands.
After he asked Li Zaiwei to acquire 49.9% of the shares, he suspended the acquisition.
He is not going to help Qiu Deba out of his trap now, and he is even less willing to let him make a lot of money.
Li Guobao immediately called Li Jianhui and expressed his congratulations. He also said that if there was a need for funds, the Bank of East Asia could also provide him with a line of HK$300 million.
This time Li Jianhui's financial resources exceeded the expectations of most people. They did not expect that Li Jianhui only borrowed 300 million Hong Kong dollars to win the battle for Wheelock Group.
Jiashi personally reported that Li Jianhui spent HK$846 million to acquire 16.2% of the shares from several major shareholders.
Including Xinjian Investment Company's acquisitions in the stock market, the total capital is about one billion Hong Kong dollars.
Where did this sudden HK$700 million come from? These families in Xiangjiang have no idea about it. Perhaps the mysterious Xinjian Investment Company can solve the mystery.
Only the top management of Citibank Hong Kong knew something about the situation. At that time, when Xinjian Investment Company opened an account in their bank, they didn't take it seriously. They just thought it was just like Huihong Game Company, just a passing account with not much funds.
Basically, when the account arrives, it will be transferred to Dao Heng Bank.
Unexpectedly, on the second day after opening the account, a sum of 1 billion Hong Kong dollars was transferred into the account.
Currently, one billion Hong Kong dollars in cash in Hong Kong is quite huge. Citibank employees immediately reported it to the senior management after discovering it.
This also allowed Citibank to directly adjust Li Jianhui's customer level to the highest level in Xiangjiang, the same level as Charter King, Jardine and Swire.
Even the general manager of Citibank Xiangjiang paid a special visit to Li Jianhui and presented him with a VIP card.
Promising various discounts and benefits, I hope Li Jianhui can put his business in Citibank.
It's a pity that Li Jianhui has his own collaborators, and he also has the idea of ​​establishing a bank in his heart, so he has no intention of deepening cooperation with Citibank.
Time passed slowly, and as the Spring Festival of 1979 was approaching, Li Jianhui was looking at the information of Wheelock Group in his office, and Chen Xinyi walked in in a panic.
"Brother Jianhui, what's wrong, Qiu Deba is contacting the American Irving Trust Company and wants to acquire its shares in Daoheng Bank. It seems that he is still here for us."
Li Jianhui was speechless. Withdrawing one billion Hong Kong dollars from London Gold already made him very distressed. At this time, it was impossible for him to withdraw funds to assist Dao Heng Bank.
Just watching Daoheng Bank being taken away by Qiu Deba was also a huge trouble for him.
You must know that Irving Trust Company holds 55% of the shares of Dao Heng Bank, but the other party did not take over and still let the Feng family be responsible for management.
Once Qiu Deba gets the shares of Dao Heng Bank from Irving Trust Company, the Feng family is likely to lose control of Dao Heng Bank.
Due to the rapid development in the past year, the current valuation of Dao Heng Bank has reached 1.2 billion Hong Kong dollars. If you want to acquire the shares of Irving Trust Company, taking into account the premium factor, you will need at least 800 million Hong Kong dollars.
Feng Jingyao will definitely not be able to come up with such a large sum of money, and Li Jianhui will not be able to come up with such a large sum of money without allocating shares in the London gold market.
After thinking about it, Li Jianhui said: "Yulian, please inform Zhou Pengfei and ask him to send someone to contact Irving Trust Company and use his Red Maple Fund to purchase the other party's shares in Daoheng Bank."
Currently, Blue Maple Investment Company has three externally raised funds, among which Purple Maple Fund is invested in the London gold market.
Orange Maple Fund mainly invests in the computer Internet industry and is mainly active in Silicon Valley in the United States.
Red Maple Fund invests in some promising companies in the stock market, mainly on the London Stock Exchange.
Due to the relatively high rate of return and last year's scheduled fulfillment, this year's three funds have a one-year fixed rate of return of 12%, and each fund has raised 500 million pounds.
The investment company sold some company shares and was able to squeeze out funds to acquire Irving Trust Company's shares in Daoheng Bank.
The funds previously transferred by Li Jianhui belong to him personally, and therefore will not be subject to supervision by the relevant British authorities.
The use of these three funds is different. This aspect is jointly supervised by the Bank of England and the British Monetary Authority.
It is simply not feasible to transfer funds at will like Li Jianhui. After all, if Red Maple Fund takes action, then the shares belong to Red Maple Fund, not to Xinjian Investment Company.
This time, Li Jianhui didn't intend to stand on the bright side, nor did he want to continue to divert his funds from London gold, so he came up with such a method.
"Brother Jianhui, it seems that Qiu Deba is targeting us. After London Gold is over, we will also look for trouble with him."
Chen Yulian was very angry, especially when she saw Zhou Pengfei's daily reports, because the king of the Pahlavi Kingdom had gone into exile overseas, causing the price of crude oil and gold to rise.
Just because of Qiu Deba, they made hundreds of millions of dollars less. Every time she thought about this, Chen Yulian bleeds in her heart.
You must know that her children will also have a share of this money in the future, but it was lost because of Qiu Deba.
If the opportunity hadn't come up, she would have suggested that Li Jianhui take action against Qiu Deba's properties now to satisfy her hatred.
