Chapter 216 The Beginning of the Acquisition of CMB
Yang Wendong thought for a while and said: "Then choose Hang Seng, Standard Chartered and HSBC. Other Chinese banks can also cooperate if appropriate, as long as the loan is low or the quota is high That’s fine.”
In the early days, he gave priority to Liao Chuangxing because Liao Baoshan was more aggressive, and even if the interest rate was higher, it could meet his early need for money.
Knowing that something was bound to happen to Liao Chong Hing Bank, he naturally chose to make arrangements early. In this way, he would eventually be able to make a profit, and the Liao family who was being laid out would also be able to reduce their losses.
But things have changed now. In terms of banks, it is actually more casual. In the future, my asset scale will become larger and larger, and my demand for funds will also become higher and higher. Then I will choose multiple banks instead of eggs. In a cage in the house;
Cooperation with banks is actually a kind of resource and a binding of interests.
"Okay, then I will decide based on my own best interests." Zheng Zhijie nodded and agreed.
......
The run on Liao Chong Hing Bank gradually returned to normal. With the joint intervention of HSBC and Standard Chartered, all depositors were relieved, and the runs on other small banks naturally stopped. .
But the Liao family has never recovered since then. Even if the depositors stopped running on the bank, they realized that Liao Chuangxing Bank was no longer viable, so they gradually withdrew their money and deposited it in other banks.
The transaction of seven buildings on Hong Kong Island has also been known to many people. In particular, the original Liao Chong Hing Bank Building on Des Voeux Road was directly renamed as Cheung Hing Building, which attracted the attention of countless people.
In a building in Central, several young people were drinking coffee.
Suddenly, a young man reading the newspaper said: "Do you know? Yang Wendong acquired several buildings in Hong Kong Island at one time, one of which is in Central."
" Post-it king Yang Wendong? A building in Central?" a woman said in surprise, and several others also cast curious glances.
Speaking of Hong Kong’s wealth, the first thing that comes to anyone’s mind is the buildings on Hong Kong Island, especially those in Central. This is where all the wealth gathers. Many British-owned foreign firms almost control this place. of most properties.
The young man said: "See for yourselves, the building of Liao Chong Hing Bank was acquired by him and has now been re-started, as well as some buildings in Causeway Bay and Happy Valley."
Another person said: "How can that be so? Doesn’t it mean that Yang Wendong has another title of real estate king?”
“It doesn’t count, does it? A few buildings can’t be considered a king, right? There are many buildings in Hong Kong. Another person said: "Besides, Yang Wendong also has a shipping company, so he can't become a shipping king?"
"Maybe he will be the same in the future." The woman next to him said, "You don't even care. Look at how many he has "You're young."
"I am also willing to be my little wife." The woman said with her chest raised.
"Hahaha~" Several people laughed and said: "You are willing, but others are not willing."
"Get out of here~" the woman said unhappily.
Although she was just joking, she was still very unhappy when someone else made a joke.
……
North Point, Hong Kong:
Wearing black-rimmed glasses, Li Jiacheng looked at the newspaper and said with emotion: "It's really amazing. The 7 buildings on Hong Kong Island have more than 1 million square feet."
The wife Zhuang Yueming next to her said with a smile: "We also have a house with more than 1 million square feet."
"How can we compare?" Li Jiacheng shook his head and said: "We are in North Point , it’s still industrial land, it’s a commercial building, it’s still in places like Central, Causeway Bay, Wan Chai, the price difference is dozens of times.”
Zhuang Yueming said: “I know, I want to say, you don’t want it either. If you focus too much on Yang Wendong, just be yourself. He is developing too fast and competing too much will only make you uncomfortable. We are not short of money anyway.”
"Yeah, the more we compete, the more uncomfortable it becomes." Li Jiacheng sighed and said, "They both started from industry. He was ten years later than me, but now he is much better than me."
Zhuang Yueming shakes He shook his head and said: "There are too many powerful people in this world, and they can never be compared."
"Yeah." Li Jiacheng nodded: "I just need to run my own business."
The acquisition of 7 buildings on Hong Kong Island has also become a business legend within Hong Kong Island. The fame of the sticky note king is also growing, and there is a clear trend of surpassing other "industrial kings".
Galaxy Daily even spent an entire page describing Yang Wendong’s current career landscape.
The core industries involved include: a large amount of industrial and commercial land in Tsim Sha Tsui; the 10,000-person industrial park in Kwun Tong and a large number of street shops, old buildings, and undeveloped land; 7 buildings and 8 ocean-going cargo ships on Hong Kong Island; < br>
As well as several factories that are creating a lot of wealth, these factories have nearly 10,000 employees, and everyone’s work is constantly producing exported goods. The export quota of Changxing Industrial’s goods is one With a monthly revenue of more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars, it has become Hong Kong's largest industrial exporter.
As soon as the newspaper came out, it was sold out immediately.
“This Yang Wendong is really amazing.” Next to a newsstand, a man praised while eating steamed buns: “I started from squatters in a few years, and now I feel like I am going to become the richest Chinese in Hong Kong. "
"The richest Chinese man doesn't matter." The woman next to him said, "Look at what the newspaper said. They have vowed to eradicate squatters in Hong Kong and let all Chinese people move out. This is the right thing to do."
"That's right." The man nodded and said.
Hong Kong China Building:
Yang Wendong was also looking at the newspaper, and he couldn't hold it any longer: "Eradicate the squatters? This Galaxy Daily doesn't know how to change the words, and when did I say that? That’s what you said?”
Zheng Zhijie next to him said with a smile: “Maybe it’s just a rumor, but it’s a positive rumor and it will be of great benefit to your reputation.”
"Yes." Yang Wendong nodded and said, "I do have this intention. Squatters should no longer exist."
"Yang Sheng is righteous." Zheng Zhijie patted his horse and said.
Yang Wendong smiled, put down the newspaper, and asked: "Is there anything important during this period?"
Zheng Zhijie replied: "One thing, yesterday, I received a call from Huang Yaonan , he said that he had roped in a shareholder who was willing to stand on our side. "
"Oh, Huang Yaonan has finally found an alliance, it's not easy," Yang Wendong said with some surprise.
During this period, he mainly spent his energy on Changxing Industrial's Ten Thousand Thousand Industrial Park and the run on Liao Chuangxing Bank. Other matters, which were not urgent, were slowed down.
As for the matter of China and Pakistan, it was left to the ally Huang Yaonan to take charge.
Zheng Zhijie also said: "Yan Chengkun controls the entire China-Pakistan Company. These current shareholders can become shareholders because they have a good relationship with the Yan family;
If you want them to betray, naturally It was a bit difficult, and it took Huang Sheng a long time to make a breakthrough."
"Well, anyway. We are not in a hurry." Yang Wendong nodded and asked again: "How many stocks does this person hold?"
In the early days when CMB was listed on the stock market, Yang Wendong acquired almost 100,000 shares. % of the shares, plus Huang Yaonan's original shares, the total shares have exceeded 34%, and he has one veto power.
But with this right, it is not enough to take away the company's management rights, at least 16% short of it.
The market value of CMB is actually not high, only 20 to 30 million Hong Kong dollars, or 16%. Even taking into account the increase in stock prices caused by the acquisition, the capital investment is only 4 to 5 million at most.
However, because CMB has just been listed, and due to its early operations, there are not many floating stocks on the market. If you want to seize the management rights of CMB, you must have the cooperation of other shareholders. .
The existing shareholders have a good relationship with the Yan family, so they contacted rashly. If it fails, and the news is leaked and Yan Chengkun finds out, it will be difficult to do anything later.
Zheng Zhijie said: "6.1%."
"6.1? It's quite a lot." Yang Wendong asked again: "How many stocks do we have in hand now?"
Zheng Zhijie replied: "12.8%, Huang Sheng also acquired some during this period , Now he has 26% of the shares. "So, we have almost 45% of the shares?" Yang Wendong said happily.
Although it is still 5 percentage points away from 50%, with this share, even if Yan Chengkun knew about it, the worst he could do was to learn from Bao Yugang 20 years later and directly trade in the stock market. Purchase at a high price.
It’s only 5% anyway, so it doesn’t cost much.
"Yes, if we get this person's stock, we will basically win." Zheng Zhijie nodded.
Yang Wendong asked again: "How much does the other party offer?"
Zheng Zhijie shook his head and said: "There is no offer. Huang Yaonan said that the other party has its own requirements. Huang Sheng wants to meet with you tomorrow to talk. ."
"Did Huang Yaonan tell this person my identity?" Yang Wendong asked with a frown.
Until the final showdown, he does not want outsiders to know that he is planning to China and Pakistan, and there is no need to let outsiders know.
Zheng Zhijie shook his head and said, "No, Huang Sheng didn't tell that person about you. He just told him that there was a top tycoon in Hong Kong behind him."
"Haha, you really know how to pull a tiger's skin." Yang Wendong laughed. He smiled and asked again: "Do you know what the conditions are?"
Zheng Zhijie said: "I don't know, Huang Sheng said he wanted to tell him face to face. "
"That's fine." Yang Wendong nodded and said, "If this acquisition is successful, I will also need to discuss with Huang Sheng how to completely acquire CMB."
"Okay, I'll make the arrangements right away." Zheng Zhijie said with a smile: "Congratulations in advance to Yang Sheng on becoming the new owner of Chunghwa Bus."
"Yeah" Yang Wendong smiled.
Although the scale of the assets acquired from Liao Chong Hing Bank is not lower than that of CMB, no matter how large the scale is, it is only the acquisition of properties.
If this time is successful, it will indeed be his first large-scale acquisition after his successful start-up.
……
That afternoon, Huang Yaonan and Yang Wendong met at the Peninsula Hotel.
This place is suitable for keeping secrets. It is better not to let outsiders know about the conspiracy between China and Pakistan, at least not now.
After meeting Yang Wendong, Huang Yaonan said: "Yang Sheng, congratulations on your recent acquisition of a lot of properties on Hong Kong Island."
"Thank you." Yang Wendong smiled.
Without any more small talk, he asked directly: "Huang Sheng, what happened to the person you mentioned before?"
Huang Yaonan replied: "Yang Sheng, this His name was Liu Yulin, and his father had a very good relationship with the previous generation of the Yan family. Their main business was in the taxi business, so they acquired shares in CMB very early
This Liu Yulin is greedy for money, also likes real estate, and plays with relatively large leverage. But recently, because Hong Kong real estate has fallen a bit, he has lost a lot of money, so he sent out a message that he wants to sell stocks.
I also took the initiative to contact him after I found out about this. ”
“If you want money, that’s definitely not a problem. "Yang Wendong nodded. For such last-minute stocks, it's okay to increase the price appropriately.
Huang Yaonan shook his head and said: "It would be much simpler if it was just like this. He has one more request.
Because this China-Brazil stock was passed down from his father who is not dead but is already old. It is considered family wealth. Although it is currently in his name, he is also afraid of being discovered by his old man. ”
"He doesn't want to sell? Then he can get a loan? Or does he want to ask you to borrow money?" Yang Wendong also understood. This may be considered a normal operation for rich children to cheat their parents.
Huang Yaonan nodded and said: "Yang Sheng is right, Liu Yulin does not dare to go to the bank for a loan, because it is likely to be known to other shareholders, so he cannot hide it.
After communicating with me, what he means is that he will sell the stocks to us now, but he needs to sign an agreement. When he gets rich, we need to sell these stocks to him at the original price. This must be done in paper documents. Sign the agreement "
"Interesting idea." Yang Wendong thought for a while and said, "That's okay, but there is a requirement that it can only be redeemed after one year. When we compete with the Yan family for management rights in the future, 6 % of the shares are very important and may determine life or death." Huang Yaonan nodded and said, "He actually knows our purpose, but no one mentioned it." >
Yang Wendong added: "However, as long as we succeed, I will find a way to get the Yan family's equity. If the Yan family does not agree, we can also increase shares to dilute the Yan family's shares;
In this way Come, I am not short of shares, naturally You can sell the previous stocks to him, but you need to add some interest. I won't take advantage of you."
"In that case, I think there will be no problem with Liu Yulin." Seeing Yang Wendong agree to the request, Huang Yaonan said. Face full of joy.
After this transaction is completed, their alliance will obtain 45% of the shares, far more than the Yan family. Coupled with Yang Wendong's financial resources, the change of ownership of China and Pakistan will soon be a certainty.
And he can fulfill his father's lifelong wish and control the entire China and Pakistan.
Although it does not count as an absolute controlling interest, it is much better than before when I could only be a major shareholder with the right to check the financial affairs.
"Well, let's trade it immediately, the price is about the same." Yang Wendong doesn't care about such a small increase in the share at this moment, this is the most critical share.
"Okay, I'll go back now." Huang Yaonan stood up quickly. He was much more anxious than Yang Wendong.
Yang Wendong smiled and said: "Huang Sheng, I will not leave this room. I think if you succeed tomorrow, we will still meet here?"
"Okay." Huang Yaonan also smiled and agreed.
The next day, the two met again.
Huang Yaonan said: "Yang Sheng, Liu Yulin's quotation is HK$1.8 million, which is 15% higher than the current stock price."
"Okay, I will pay for it." Yang Wendong nodded. said.
At the end of February, when CMB was listed, the total market value fluctuated around HK$20 million;
In the following months, many specialized companies and British-funded companies in Hong Kong were listed one after another, especially Yi and has pushed the Hong Kong stock market to a climax.
Although in the short term, large companies like Jardine Matheson still affect the transaction quotas of other companies, it is because of its great popularity and the high rise in stock prices that it has brought huge wealth to many people, which naturally attracts more The "stock market novice".
A large amount of money entered the market, causing the stock price to skyrocket, even greater than the increase in real estate. Therefore, companies in the entire Hong Kong stock market basically benefited.
China Bus’s stock has also risen by about 20% in the past few months, with the total market value fluctuating at HK$25 million. The normal price of 6% of the stock should be around 1.5 million. Now it is a secret acquisition, so a higher price is normal.
Huang Yaonan said: "Well, Yang Sheng, you'd better not come forward. I will come forward and use my stock guarantee to ensure that he can recover the stock at the same price in the future."
"Yes. Yang Wen asked: "In this case, we have 45%. Huang Sheng, what do you think we should do next?
Should we wait a little longer, or launch a general offensive and directly capture the remaining 5% in the stock market at a high price? "
Huang Yaonan was also prepared long ago and replied: "Yang Sheng, in the past few months, I have investigated almost all other shareholders, and I have also hinted at those with only a few tenths of a percentage point;
But they don’t seem to be willing to sell the stocks, but I can’t offer too high a price, otherwise the news will be easily leaked;
So if I want to make a secret acquisition, I have to wait until someone like Liu Yulin is in urgent need of money. In this case, it all depends on luck. "
"Well, I think so too. There are not many circulating shares in the stock market, and we will be discovered even if we slowly acquire them. Yang Wendong nodded and said, "It's better to be more straightforward and buy it at a high price on the stock market."
As long as you don't care about being discovered and raise the stock price by ten or twenty points, just like Liu Yulin's price, it will not only be ordinary shareholders, but also the few shareholders you found before will probably sell their shares. ”
