Chapter 333 Exchange of Interests
Peninsula Hotel.
"Mr. Xu, it's an honor to meet you."
Kevin Hannon looked at the young man opposite. Although it was not the first time, he was still surprised. The other person's youth.
After a simple handshake.
"Mr. Hannon, please take a seat."
The two sat down and the waiter brought the coffee.
"Mr. Hannon, I remember the first time we met was at Hanhua's investment reception last year." Xu Liang said with a smile.
"Yes. Hanhua's investment return rate is impressive, and Mr. Xu's financial talent is even more amazing. We at Standard Chartered also invested US$15 million in your Qinglong No. 1 fund."
Xu Liang smiled and said: "It seems that we already have a good foundation for cooperation."
"Yes."
After agreeing, Kevin Hannon's eyes flashed slightly, "Mr. Xu, Hanhua Capital is developing very fast. In addition to private equity business, you are also commendable in the mergers and acquisitions business. "
Xu Liang glanced at him and said, "Standard Chartered is not our acquisition target of Hanhua."
"But you already hold nearly 6% of our equity, and you still have more. Request a seat on the board of directors. ”
“This is normal, because Hanhua intends to have in-depth cooperation with Standard Chartered, so we need to obtain a seat on the board of directors of Standard Chartered to ensure the effectiveness of our cooperation. ”
< br>
Kevin Hannon was instantly interested.
“I wonder how Mr. Xu plans to cooperate?”
“It’s very simple. Wealth management business is Standard Chartered’s main business, and private equity investment is Hanhua’s strength. We can combine Hanhua’s Each of China's funds raises funds through Standard Chartered, and you introduce Hanhua's funds to wealthy customers with investment needs.
After making profits, you can get 3% to 5%. " Xu Liang. Smiled.
Hanhua Capital has only been established for a short period of time and there are not many channels for raising funds.
Cooperating with Standard Chartered will allow Hanhua to reach dozens of emerging markets in Asia and Africa.
Kevin Hannon's eyes lit up instantly.
Hanhua’s investment capabilities are obvious to all.
I won’t mention it last year, but it ranked third in the world in the field of hedge funds.
Leaving aside other funds this year, the half-year profit of only one Qinglong No. 1 fund has outperformed 99% of the world's private equity funds.
If we can cooperate with Hanhua, the attractiveness and profitability of Standard Chartered's wealth management business to customers will be greatly improved.
"Mr. Xu, we at Standard Chartered are very happy to cooperate with Hanhua, and there is no problem with the board of directors. However, we hope to obtain Hanhua's exclusive cooperation rights in emerging markets including Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Africa."
As a veteran financial practitioner, Kevin Hannon subconsciously strives for more benefits for Standard Chartered.
Xu Liang smiled faintly, "Mr. Hannon, rights and obligations are equal."
The meaningful words made Kevin Hannon understand.
His conditions are not enough.
“Mr. "Hanhua."
Kevin Hannon frowned instantly.
"Mr. Xu, 30% of the shares is too much, and the company cannot agree to it."
"Don't worry. Even if you give me so much equity, I can't afford it now. But I ask for 20% of the equity and three board seats of Standard Chartered."
Kevin Hannon pondered for a long time Finally, "Mr. Xu, your requirements are too high. I don't have the authority to give you an accurate answer."
"It doesn't matter. You can report it to the management of Standard Chartered Bank. We will talk about it when we have the results." . However, please hurry up and don't delay me in finding other partners."
"Please give us half a month."
"Okay, no problem."
"Thank you."
After simply finishing the meal, Kevin Hannon left with a heavy heart.
Watching his back go away, Xu Liangliang also started to look forward to it.
It is highly likely that 20% of the equity and 3 board seats are impossible.
As long as 15% of the shares and 1 board seat, he is satisfied.
As soon as he returned to his residence, Xu Liang's cell phone rang suddenly.
Looked at the caller ID.
Xu Liangliang was moved and quickly pressed the answer button.
"Mr. Xu, I am Tang Wanxin."
"Mr. Tang, your Delong has been very popular recently."
In May, Delong established Denong Supermarket Co., Ltd. and announced an investment of 10 billion yuan within five years to complete the layout of setting up 10,000 agricultural supplies supermarkets in 10 major agricultural provinces. By then, a large and modern supermarket will be built in China's vast rural areas. , an efficient agricultural input distribution network.
The huge plan caused a sensation in the entire Chinese commercial market.
Pushing Delong's three old stocks to rise by nearly 10% in a bear market.
Xu Liang has been paying attention to Delong’s movements, so he naturally understands.
“Mr.
Hongmeng’s valuation of US$6 billion was the valuation given by the Forbes rich list in 2002 when it assessed his wealth.
Hanhua’s valuation is US$2 billion.
Coupled with enterprises such as New Dream, Xu Liang's wealth in 2002 was US$4.5 billion.
I can only say that it is a blind assessment.
It’s just that Xu Liang’s shares in Hongmeng are more than this amount.
Xu Liang smiled, "Mr. Tang didn't call me just to talk about this, right?" After a moment of silence, Tang Wanxin's voice came again.
“I wonder if the words Mr. Xu left when we were in Magic City last time count?”
The corner of Xu Liang’s mouth curled up.
“Mr. Tang has changed his mind and plans to sell Lop Nur potassium salt?”
Tang Wanxin's face turned dark. He didn't believe that Xu Liang didn't understand what he meant.
Take a breath and calm down.
"Mr. Xu misunderstood. Lop Nur potassium salt is the core asset of Delong Group and will never be sold." After a pause, he changed his tone and said, "What I want to ask Xu is about last time. Mr. Tang was talking about the cooperation between Delong and Hanhua.”
“It turns out that this is the case. Mr. Tang can rest assured that Hanhua will not refuse anyone’s investment as long as he agrees to the conditions.”
"Thank you, Mr. Xu. This time our Delong plans to invest US$10 million in Hanhua Qinglong No. 2 Fund."
"U.S. dollars?"
Xu Liang was keenly aware of the difference. Delong did not have U.S. dollars available in China.
"Don't worry, Mr. Tang, I will be responsible for the investment of this money."
Tang Wanxin breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly: "Mr. Xu, thank you very much. I'll wait until next time you come to Magic City. , I will host a banquet in person.”
“Then I would like to say thank you in advance. By the way, if Delong needs to sell its assets, please give me a priority. I believe Hanhua. We will definitely give you the best price.”
"Okay."
Tang Wanxin responded dully.
For business operators, selling assets is obviously not a good word.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Liang couldn't help but smile.
“The fish took the bait.”
——
After staying for three days, Xu Liang came to Yangcheng from Xiangjiang.
Get out of the car.
Looking at the tall Qiao Yuhui who is wearing a white embroidered lace chiffon shirt, a light brown knee-length skirt, crystal strap high-heeled sandals, long wavy hair, and flaming red lips. She is charming and domineering. .
Xu Liang greeted him with a smile.
In full view of everyone, he unceremoniously held his arms around the woman's slender waist.
"Not bad, I know how to pick up your man."
Qiao Yuhui rolled his eyes at him, "Don't be so arrogant in public, many people are watching."
"This is my true temperament."
Xu Liang said with a smile.
"Bang."
Qiao Yuhui, who didn't want to accept his trick, grabbed him and got into the car.
Come to Jianlibao Building.
More than half of the floors in this Grade 5A office building with a construction area of more than 80,000 square meters are empty.
However, Qiao Yuhui did not rent it out.
"After acquiring Huiyuan, we will move their headquarters from the capital. Then it will not be so empty." Qiao Yuhui said.
Xu Liang nodded, "The deal with Delong Group has been negotiated?"
Qiao Yuhui nodded, "It has been negotiated, 550 million Huaxia coins, acquisition of 51% of Beijing Huiyuan equity, including the Huiyuan brand, and 9 processing plants across the country.”
“What did Zhu Xinli say?” Buy back the controlling stake," Qiao Yuhui said with a smile.
Although Huiyuan is the No. 1 juice brand, its foundation is still inferior to Jianlibao, the No. 1 beverage brand in the country.
"Find an opportunity to have a frank talk with him. Buy his Huiyuan shares. If he doesn't sell, invest a sum of money to dilute his shares. In addition, put the Zhu family in Everyone in Huiyuan was fired.
Purchase the company's management to reduce costs and increase efficiency," Xu Liangdao.
The decline of Huiyuan is a classic case in the history of Chinese enterprises.
Xu Liang has also seen it.
Naturally, he doesn’t want the brand he bought to go back to the old ways.
Qiao Yuhui nodded.
"You don't seem to like Zhu Xinli?"
She knows Xu Liang, and if he didn't look down on him, he would basically not expel the founder of the company.
“It’s not about whether you like him or not. As the founder of Huiyuan, he is indeed very talented, daring and good at seizing opportunities. But this man has no vision and likes nepotism.” Xu Liangdao.
If he can be deceived by the Delong Group into giving up all the controlling rights of the company, you know what his background is.
Qiao Yuhui understood, "It seems that I am going to be a villain again."
"Who made you the CEO of Jianlibao." Xu Liang smiled, "By the way, this year's NBA The draft lottery has ended, and the Warriors have won this year’s No. 1 pick.”
Qiao Yuhui’s eyes lit up instantly.
“Then can we do publicity?”
Xu Liang nodded, "The NBA draft is on June 26, there is still a month left. You start promoting it half a month in advance and wait for Yao Ming to be selected as the number one pick and go on sale."
Qiao Yuhui has a pretty face. There was excitement in the article, "Jianlibao's sales will definitely see explosive growth."
"Don't be too happy yet. Once the publicity is done, your logistics and production must keep up."
“You don’t have to worry about this. I have been straightening out the distribution system and production during this period. Even if the sales of Jianlibao double, we can digest it smoothly. ...By the way, do you think I want it? Sign Huiyuan’s endorsement deal with Yao Ming?”
Xu Liang thought for a moment and shook his head.
