Chapter 568 The Wharf Pier auction
"The price has more than doubled."
"This is the first time that our Chinese capital has been so grand at an auction, and the auction is for a port."
Many reporters discussed while shooting at the edge of the auction;
In previous years, various bidding, except for the real estate market because the British ghosts are not very involved, they are basically the ghosts. Today, the auction is the core interest terminal of Hong Kong Britain, but the first is the Chinese Capital Consortium. The auction was successful.
This is of great historical significance to the struggle between Chinese capital and British capital in Hong Kong;
Over the 1970s, the rise of Chinese capital in Hong Kong has almost become the consensus of many Chinese, especially Yang Wendong. Now everyone is waiting to see when these two consortiums can have a large -scale conflict.
This time the auction was obviously considered to be considered.
The first auction ended, and there was a 5-minute break. Everyone took the opportunity to discuss follow-up matters, and Yang Wendong breathed a sigh of relief;
"Are you relieved?" Su Yiyi asked with a smile.
Yang Wendong nodded: "Yes, in accordance with the rules of the Hong Kong government, I can only get a dock, at least on the way, then look at Bao Yugang and Qi Dezun."
Although they have given them enough support, Ihe, Taikoo, and the United States, Japan and Yingying are not vegetarian. In terms of financial resources, these are stronger than Yang Wendong. br>
Whoever has greater confidence in the future of Hong Kong and who dares to bear greater risks, who will win;
For anyone else, there are risks to invest in Hong Kong's ports. Just like letting Yang Wendong go to Eastern Europe and South America to invest in the dock in Eastern Europe and South America, it will definitely be very careful.
Soon 5 minutes later, the second pier began auction. Yang Wendong retired from the battlefield and came to Bao Yukang's location. This wharf was obtained.
The starting price was still 75 million, and Bao Yugang immediately increased the price by 5 million, followed by Jardine and Swire immediately
In the end, the price reached 160 million, and Bao Yugang was also killed, and continued to keep up. The price soon reached 1.75, which was higher than the previous price of Yang Wendong.
"Sheng Bao, you can't give up at this point. A dock is of great significance to your fleet." Yang Wendong said;
He also owns 16% of the shares, so naturally he doesn't want Bao Yugang to give up.
"Rest assured, I know." Bao Yugang turned back immediately after finishing speaking, raising the card: 180 million.
The price immediately shocked everyone. Even Sanders, who was watching the show, couldn't help but look at Bao Yugang. But when he saw Yang Wendong next to Bao Yugang, he also understood.
Shen Yan next to him said: "Sir, it seems that Yang Wendong is now integrating the Chinese consortium and tied them all on his own ship."
"Normally, this is what a smart person should do. No matter how big the one is, it is difficult to go." Sanders can not be too surprised. "Yang Wendong has long been looking for partners in Southeast Asia. Even in Europe and the United States, Hong Kong is definitely inevitable, but the previous Chinese capital consortium is too weak. "
No matter how big a Chinese -funded consortium is, if there is not enough allies, it will be difficult to become a boat, but the interests of many consortia have their own forces and gather together to do things together, then it will have greater power.
Shen Bi added: "In order to limit Yang Wendong from getting too many terminals, the Hong Kong government came up with a policy that a single consortium can only control one terminal. However, this also allowed Yang Wendong to give up the terminal interests with peace of mind, and then from other places Making profits has strengthened the alliance of Chinese-funded consortia. I don’t know whether it is right or wrong.”
"Maybe it's right, maybe it's wrong, but the situation at the time was no longer possible." Sands sighed: "You know Yang Wendong’s financial resources, if you do not restrict the legal aspect, then he is very likely to take it. In multiple docks, the profit of Hong Kong's industry is missing from our British capital. "
HSBC has conducted investigations for many businesses of Changxing Group overseas. Although the specific scale is not found, it is probably known;
It can be said that this is a giant lurking in Hong Kong. Its large number of business, funds, and properties are overseas. In addition, it is not a listed company itself. A lot of it.
In addition, Yang Wendong is also very confident about the future of Hong Kong. If there are no restrictions, the interests of British-funded consortiums may soon be robbed. Although restrictions will allow Chinese capital to unite with the outside world, it will at least threaten the present situation later. There are British interests.
Shen Yan went on to say: "Indeed, it has nothing to do with British capital, but it has nothing to do with our HSBC. As long as we are the only central bank in Hong Kong, Hong Kong's wealth is inseparable from us."
"That's right." Sanders nodded and said: "Our interests are not in British capital but in Hong Kong. The rise of Chinese capital actually has little impact on us."
Shen Yan also said: "The problem is that the Hang Seng and East Asia in China -funded banks have great threats to us, and their development speed is too fast."
"Alas, I originally wanted to acquire Hang Seng in 1965, but I didn't expect that Yang Wendong intervened, which caused Hang Seng to survive. Although its vitality was seriously injured, it has basically recovered in the past few years." Sanders said with emotion: " Now with Yang Wendong’s funding and He Shanheng’s own abilities, he will indeed be a big threat to HSBC;
If you take charge of HSBC in the future, you must be careful. However, the advantage is that due to Hong Kong banking laws, Yang Wendong's group cannot cooperate directly with Hang Seng. ”
Large consortium, the next successor is not selected at will, but starts training in advance in advance;
Shen Yan is the heir selected by Sanders. He has a strong ability and has a good relationship with the Chinese capital consortium. He even has some connection with the north.
"Changxing Group now basically cooperates with Citigroup and Standard Chartered, and its cooperation with us has been reduced a lot in recent years," Shen Bi said with a frown.
Sanders nodded and said: "Normally, Changxing Group's core capital has begun to invest overseas. Naturally, it needs to cooperate with local consortiums and banks overseas. Naturally, we will not be given priority."
"I think HSBC, and I should also find a way to invest in overseas. I can't just stay in Hong Kong." Shen Yan suddenly said: "And the geographical location of Hong Kong is always a unstable factor. After the scale is large, they are going to invest in overseas.
Sanders agreed: "What you say is reasonable, but I am almost retired. You can only do this in the future."
"Okay, but I need some resources now to investigate the overseas financial industry." Shen Bi said.
Sanders agreed: "No problem." After the two chatted for a while, the third pier was officially auctioned.
Both Yang Wendong and Bao Yugang have obtained the corresponding docks, and apart from them, there are no other Chinese capital on site;
It is not to say that it is not that other Chinese capital does not look at the pier, but that the Hong Kong government has high restrictions on the dock auction participants. It must have relevant shipping experience. There are several Chinese people in Hong Kong. The Dong family and the Zhao family have clearly stated that they are not involved. The core reason may be that they believe that mobile assets are the safest.
There were more participants in Pier 4, including Jardine Swire, Hutchison Whampoa, the US-Japanese consortium, and even a company from London, England. In the end, Jardine Matheson won the terminal for HK$175 million;
Yang Wendong saw Qi Dezun who was finally abandoned. In the past, he asked: "Qi Dezun, will you not be ready to give up?"
Qi Dezun smiled and said: "Don't worry, Yang Sheng, I won't give up. There is still one last pier."
"If you fail the last pier, there will be no chance." Yang Wendong said lightly.
Qi Dezun nodded: "I know, but before the look of Yihe, I was going to get a dock and touched them. It was too lost to me."
Yang Wendong said: "Swire is not someone to be trifled with."
Although there is competition among large consortiums, if the choice is not unique, they will tacitly avoid each other when appropriate to avoid unnecessary internal friction;
For example, when the first pier bid, many consortiums saw Yang Wendong's performance, and there was no additional order, otherwise internal consumption would make Yang Wendong spend more than millions of more, but this kind of meaning is not meaningful. When other bidding, others can also engage in you in turn.
There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!
Therefore, although the competition exists in any business society, it is not disorderly competition. There are some rules more or less;
Qi Dezun laughed: "I know, but participating in this kind of auction must be competing with the big consortium, then I choose to be a little bit better."
"Okay, I'll look at you later." Yang Wendong nodded and said.
From the perspective of Qi Dezun, he is naturally reluctant to face Yi and the largest Hong Kong British consortium with Yihe, even if it is too ancient, it is a bit worse.
Soon, the last auction began, and multiple consortiums immediately launched a comprehensive competition, the most obvious of which were Swire and Hutchison Whampoa;
"85 million" and "90 million". The price of multi -party competition will soon reach 160 million, which is almost the same as the three prices ahead.
"170 million." Qi Dezun raised his hand directly and raised the price by 10 million;
This is also a move to scare other people when bidding. Just like what Yang Wendong did before, if you have strong capital, other people will consider the gains and losses and whether it is cost-effective to continue;
However, although Huang is now the British -funded consortium in Hong Kong, it is not as good as Taikoo.
"175 million." Swire Group also raised a sign.
"185 million." Qi Dezun increased the price by 10 million again;
This suddenly attracted everyone's attention, including the group of reporters, the transfer camera one by one, and aimed at Qi Dezun.
"This Qi Dezun is indeed a bit of courage. No wonder it can succeed." Yang Wendong also praised.
For himself, Bao Yugang, and Yihe, Qi Dezun has not moved, but when he encounters too much ancient, although the other party is stronger, he needs to be ruthless.
Too much hesitated for a moment, still holding a card: 190 million.
"200 million." Qi Dezun's face calmly, reporting the highest price today.
There was an uproar at the scene. The representative of the Hong Kong government was extremely happy at this moment. Such a large amount of income was enough to rival the Hong Kong government's two years of fiscal revenue.
The people on the Taikoo side were also stunned. Several members of the Shi Huaiya family hurriedly discussed with each other. The auctioneer in front did not rush, but waited with peace of mind;
It was only after a while and did not call the price again. The scene was "a booing". Finally, the auction official looked at the Shi Huaiya family, saying: "200 million times, 200 million times, 200 million times, transactions." < br>
"Okay~"
The bidding was completely over, and everyone at the scene cheered. Such a high transaction price is enough to show that many Hong Kong consortiums are optimistic about the future of Hong Kong's economy;
In this way, no matter whether it is the stock market or the real estate market tomorrow, it will be greatly stimulated.
"Pap, pah, pah, pah~"
In a applause, everyone stood up and was ready to leave the venue.
Su Yiyi asked curiously: "Unexpectedly, we did not get the highest price in this auction, but Qi Dezun's bid was the highest."
