Chapter 218 China-Pakistan Acquisition War (2)
"Hang Seng Bank?" After listening to Zheng Zhijie's report, Yang Wendong frowned slightly and said: "This Liao Chuang Hing Bank has just been run on and almost bankrupted. During this period , Chinese-owned banks in Hong Kong should be more conservative, right?"
Wang Lianhua next to him said: "Yang Sheng, Chinese-owned banks will be more conservative than before, but the current market value of the stocks in Yan Chengkun's hands is probably I'm afraid it's close to 10 million.
Even if this is due to our acquisition, CMB itself is a high-quality company. If these stocks are mortgaged, you can get 3 to 4 million from any bank. In terms of funding, the risk is not big.
The only problem is that for extremely short-term loans at this time, general banks may greatly discount the loan amount. ”
Yang Wendong nodded and asked: "Will Hang Seng Bank help Yan Chengkun like this?"
The price of emergency loans is very high, and generally you cannot get much credit. In order to acquire the property assets of Liao Chong Hing Bank, He negotiated loans with HSBC and Standard Chartered more than a month in advance.
Wang Lianhua said: "I have also heard that there is a good personal relationship between He Shanheng and Yan Chengkun of Hang Seng. It is said that they did business together when they were young.
It is the relationship between these two people now. I don't know what the relationship is like, but since Yan Chengkun dares to say such things, it should be about the same."
"Old Zheng, ask He Shanheng out for me," Yang Wendong thought for a while. , said.
"Okay." Zheng Zhijie agreed first, and then asked: "Yang Sheng is going to persuade He Sheng not to participate in this matter?"
Yang Wendong nodded and said: "Well, although there is only 3 points difference now. For stocks, even if there is a price war, even if the stock price doubles, we may be able to succeed if we spend millions more, but it is still not necessary. .
And if Hang Seng really generously helps Yan Chengkun, the confrontation between our two major shareholders will affect the normal operations of CMB over time. ”
Although in theory. How the stock market is doing does not affect the normal operations of the company, but it is actually another matter and will definitely have an impact.
And this kind of acquisition must be done quickly. If time goes by, it is possible for Yan Chengkun to lay a little thunder for himself before he fails.
Zheng Zhijie said: "Okay, I will go and make an appointment with He Sheng now."
...
In the evening of that day, Yang Wendong met He Shanheng at the hotel.
"Yang Sheng, long time no see." He Shanheng smiled and shook hands and said, "I heard that you are now a father. Congratulations. A big company like Changxing Group has a successor."
< br>"Thank you." Yang Wendong smiled.
For a company of my size, it would be very scary to have no descendants, and even one would be unsafe.
After the two sat down one after another, they chatted for a while, and He Shanheng asked: "Yang Sheng, what do you mean by asking me out? Is it some big project that requires a new loan?"
< br>At their level, normal banking business does not require the two of them to come forward.
Over the years, Hang Seng Bank has also cooperated with Changxing Group many times. He himself is also very concerned about Changxing Group and is very optimistic about Yang Wendong's future.
It’s just that Changxing Group’s priority has always been Liao Chong Hing Bank. Many Huazi Banks, including Hang Seng, wanted to grab this large customer with low risk, but they have never been successful.
Now that Liao Chuangxing Bank is almost bankrupt, and he has received a personal invitation from Yang Wendong, he naturally determines that there will be some big cooperation project, and the two of them will even negotiate and cooperate more in the future in exchange for certain discounts, etc.
Yang Wendong smiled and said: "If there is a need for financing in the future, I will naturally give priority to Hang Seng Bank.
But the reason why I asked you out today is not because of this, but because of one thing. Please.”
“Yang Sheng, please say.” He Shanheng was a little strange.
Yang Wendong followed up and said: "In the past few days, the unusual thing about China-Brazil stocks is that there are large capital acquisitions. I heard that Hang Seng Bank will do its best to help the current chairman Yan Chengkun?"
"Yang Sheng? Did you do this?" He Shanheng's face changed and he asked in surprise.
Many investors already know about the China-Pakistan affair. Isn’t it surprising that Yang Wendong knows about it.
But it had only been less than a few hours since I had decided to do my best to help the Yan family, and not many people even within Hang Seng Bank knew about it.
Although this matter is not top secret, if it is not the relevant stakeholders, who will pay attention to this matter?
"Not really." Yang Wendong smiled and said: "I just helped the Huang family get back the rights that their family should have. Now it's the last moment. I don't want to confront Hengsheng. Everyone will lose something.”
"Finally? How many stocks does Yang Sheng have in his hands?" He Shanheng asked with a frown.
He had discussed with Yan Chengkun before and they determined that Huang Yaonan must be one of them. He holds about 24% of the stocks, while the Yan family holds about 35%. If others want to succeed, Huang Yaonan must be one of them. It is impossible to succeed without participation.
I just didn’t expect that the person behind this would be Hong Kong’s most promising business star, Yang Wendong.
Yang Wendong said with a smile: "I have almost 22.5%, plus the stocks in Huang Yaonan's hands, the difference is only 3-3.5 percentage points, which is enough."
"Yang Sheng It's really amazing." He Shanheng said in surprise: "In this way, you are basically successful, right?"
"Less than 50.1%, even if the difference is 0.2 percentage points, it is not considered a success." Yang Wendong shook his head and said: "There are too many variables here. For example, Hengsheng suddenly wants to help the Yan family, otherwise I don't need to rush to show up." Got pregnant. "
"Hahaha!" He Shanheng nodded and said: "Yang Sheng is indeed cautious enough, but the relationship between me and Yan Chengkun is a bit difficult..."
" Understand, we naturally have to take care of Zeng "My financial strength is yours." I also know that if their family runs out of money, how can you repay the loan?”
“This” He Shanheng also hesitated. Nowadays, everyone in the top wealthy circles in Hong Kong knows Yang Wendong’s financial resources. It is already at the top level in the Chinese circle.
In particular, he swallowed up 7 Hong Kong Island buildings owned by Liao Chong Hing Bank, as well as established a shipping company, a ten-person industrial park, etc., which is enough to make him an upstart in Hong Kong's business community.
Yan Chengkun can be considered a somewhat accomplished person in the Hong Kong world, but he is far behind Yang Wendong.
Yang Wendong said again: "He Sheng, I don't want all three of our families to suffer losses. How about this, He Sheng acts as the middleman and asks the Yan family to sell the stock to me. I can definitely offer a good price;
In this way, the Yan family will make a fortune, I will achieve my goal, Hang Seng Bank will not have bad debts, and we can even cooperate more in the future, how about? ”
The most successful acquisition in the business world is a good-faith acquisition. Even if you are not good at the beginning, if you can do it without losing a fight in the end, that is the best ending.
He Shanheng nodded and said, "Okay, I'll pass on this message, but I can't say whether it will work."
"If it doesn't work, then it will be life and death in the stock market." Yang Wendong didn't care either. : "He Sheng can also help. At most, I will spend a few million yuan more. This money is nothing."
If you give face to the other party and they don't want it, then you can only give it to the barrel of the gun.
"Okay." He Shanheng replied.
That evening, the tallest building in the 22-story Hang Seng Bank Headquarters Building in Central said: "No, I will never agree." Yan Chengkun's face was ashen and he said: "I would rather lose my entire family than keep the family industry."< br>
He Shanheng sighed and said: "Yan Sheng, many things cannot be achieved if you work hard. Yang Wendong's financial resources are so strong that you will never be able to match him.
Previously Liao Chuang Hing Bank Seven buildings in Hong Kong were acquired by him for more than HK$20 million. Although it was a loan, HSBC's ability to help him is also a reflection of his financial strength. "
"Do you know what agreement he made with Huang Yaonan?" Yan Chengkun also gradually came to his senses. The issue now is to solve the problem, not to fight head-on, because it is simply impossible to overcome it.
“I don’t know.” He Shanheng was also a smart man and asked, “You don’t want to sow discord between them, do you?”
He Shanheng said: "Everyone is doing it for profit, so Yang Wendong can't just help Huang Yaonan, right? What the Huang family can give, my Yan family can also give."
"Your idea is interesting." He Shanheng After thinking for a while, he said, "Although I think it's unlikely, we can definitely give it a try. How about I invite Yang Wendong out tomorrow and let's talk about it together?"
"Okay." Yan Chengkun nodded. Said the head.
The next day, Hang Seng Bank Building:
Yang Wendong also met his current "rival", Yan Chengkun.
"Yansheng, I have admired you for a long time." Yang Wendong smiled and said, basic etiquette is still required.
Yan Chengkun was filled with hatred, but now that He Shanheng was here, he could only say politely: "No, I'm far behind Yang Wendong, the king of post-it notes."
"Haha, you two, there is no need to be so tense." He Shanheng advised from the side: "Sit down first." ’
Although the two people in front of me spoke very kindly, their tone was different.
Yang Wendong naturally gave He Shanheng face, after the three of them sat down.
Yan Chengkun said: "Yang Sheng, if you want to invest in CMB, I welcome it very much, but I don't quite understand why you want to launch a merger and acquisition of CMB because you have no experience in managing a bus company."
Yang Wendong Shrugging his shoulders, he said: "This stock market acquisition is Huang Yaonan's action, and I am only cooperating. It’s just him;
After this operation, the Huang family will be in charge of CMB, and I will only be an investor.”
This sentence is also correct, he will not be bored in person. Spend your energy managing the bus company, as long as the bus company can cooperate with your future plans.
Not only real estate, but also other service industries. With buses, many businesses will be much more convenient.
Yan Chengkun frowned after hearing this.
At this time, He Shanheng said: "Yang Sheng, I don't know what agreement Huang Yaonan has reached with you, but I think Yan Sheng can do the same thing;
No matter In terms of business ability and social network, Huang Yaonan is far inferior to Yan Sheng."
"He Sheng was joking." Yang Wendong also knew about the two. purpose, and then said: "I will not betray my allies. This is a matter of principle."
In the future, no matter how big Yang Wendong is in Hong Kong, he will not be able to do everything by himself. Many times, no matter how big Yang Wendong is in Hong Kong, Investment requires more capital and cooperation. The same is true for the four major families in the previous life. They cooperated with each other and other consortiums.
Anyone who betrays a partner for other interests will only be cast aside in the future. Even if outsiders don't know, Yang Wendong doesn't even bother to do such a thing.
Not to mention, his future target is a British giant. If no one is willing to cooperate with him, then if he wants to acquire a British giant in the future, he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
Yan Chengkun frowned and asked, 'Yang Sheng, is there really no room for negotiation? '
Yang Wendong thought for a while and said: "You can keep some of the stocks as family inheritance, and you can even keep most of the stocks. I can promise this;
As for the management rights issue, it is If you can persuade Huang Yaonan about the internal issues between the Yan family and the Huang family, I have no objection.”
Today, many laws of listed companies in Hong Kong follow those of the Commonwealth. For example, the largest shareholder of a listed company can only hold 49.9% of the shares.
Therefore, Yang Wendong does not really need all the shares of the Yan family, as long as he collects 49%, it is enough.
He Shanheng frowned, but there was nothing he could do in this situation, and his face was not that great.
Yan Chengkun's face was ashen and he said: "Well, let's see the truth in the stock market."
After returning to his own territory, Yang Wendong said to Wang Lianhua: "Immediately announce our decision on China Regarding the acquisition, the price will be increased by 20% and the goods will be collected directly on the stock market.”
"Okay." Wang Lianhua also understood that there seemed to be no results in the negotiation.
Yang Wendong said to Zheng Zhijie again: "Old Zheng, CMB is a specialized enterprise. You should go and communicate with the officials of the Hong Kong government's transportation department to show that our acquisition will not cause normal transportation problems. "
"Understood." Zheng Zhijie agreed.
"Let's do this. Try to complete this matter within a few days." Yang Wendong nodded and said.
PS: 1. Please give me a monthly ticket.
2. In the past, many people said that the plot of the book was too bland and the protagonist had always been smooth. However, in the 1960s, it was impossible to attack British capital like in the late 1970s. This decade itself was also a time when many Chinese bosses kept a low profile. .
So the plot seems to be less exciting and there are fewer conflicts.
Then I wrote this paragraph about the acquisition of China and Pakistan, which was actually just a short plot. However, some people said that the acquisition should not be done at that time and that we should just continue to develop.
I feel that no matter how I write, I am trying to offend both sides. In fact, it is normal. When reading business articles, some people like to read about industry, while others like to read about real estate and financial acquisitions.
But they are all right. I hope everyone will stop arguing in the comment area. There is no absolutely correct route for business writing and career. Everyone has their own choices.
3. Although many readers in the comment section of novels say they like to read about industry, at least my book, which tells the story of an industrial factory, has seen a terrible decline in subscriptions and no one has read it.
Later I had to write about real estate, finance, shipping, etc., and a lot of people read it, so in essence, everyone still likes to make quick money, rather than tedious industry.
My friend wrote a book about the development and entrepreneurship of new energy electric vehicles, and his grades were also very poor. His previous book about real estate was close to a high-end product (6,000 per order), so... I like to read about industry. In fact, That is, a small group of people, including my last book, can see this through different plots.
So this book also has various plots to satisfy different readers. If you really don’t like it, you don’t have to subscribe to the chapters you don’t like. This is normal.
4. Many people say that the plot is slow. I also know that the most exciting time was the 1970s, but at least hundreds of authors have written the plot during that time, including me, so this book is I want to seriously write about something different, that is, the 1960s.
