Chapter 20 The Impressed Charter King
The privatization process of the Su Group is already in progress. Su Cheng will ignore it for the time being. Zhang Li will be responsible for the entire process.
At noon, Zhang Qizheng called and said that he had made an appointment with the charter king. The charter king invited them to meet at six o'clock tonight.
In response, Su Cheng directly accepted the invitation.
The chartered ship king is currently a big boss in the Chinese business community in Hong Kong and the world's number one shipping king. Although Su Cheng does not need to lick him and it is impossible to lick him, he should also give his respect to his predecessors. Due respect.
At five o'clock in the evening, Su Cheng first went to pick up Zhong Chuhong from school, and then went to North Point to pick up Zhang Qizheng before continuing to Deep Water Bay.
The king of charter boats lives in Deep Water Bay. His mansion is actually not far from Li Ka-shing's villa.
Although Zhong Chuhong seems to be just a tool now, Su Cheng will take her wherever she goes without any performance.
In fact, Zhong Chuhong is just a student who has not graduated yet. Su Cheng brings her by his side, which can be regarded as allowing her to learn a lot of things and gain a lot of exposure. After she graduates, Only then can he be more qualified to be his personal secretary.
This can be regarded as Su Cheng training her.
As for whether she will continue to be an actress in the future, it will be up to her to decide.
Deep Water Bay, the residence of the Charter King.
When Su Cheng and the others came here, the chartering king had already come to the door to receive them in person.
"Hello, Mr. Bao, I am Zhang Qizheng, CEO of Tianyuan Investment Management Company, and this is my boss, Mr. Su Cheng."
The Charter King already knew Zhang Qizheng, but for He didn't know anything about Su Cheng, so Zhang Qizheng spoke first.
"Hello, hello, welcome to my home, please come in!" The charter king said enthusiastically, but kept looking at Su Cheng.
Is this the boss behind the Wharf takeover that shocked the whole of Hong Kong? This is also a bit too young.
"Mr. Bao, I've admired you for a long time, and today I'm visiting you for the first time. It's better to meet him than to be famous!" Su Cheng laughed.
At the same time, the two also shook hands with each other.
Enter the chartered king's mansion and come to the living room on the second floor.
At this time, the servant brought a fruit plate and boiling water.
"Mr. Su is really a formidable young man. I didn't expect that the acquisition that caused a sensation in the entire Xiangjiang was actually controlled by you. Even I, who have been in business for many years, have to say that this battle was well fought." 1 After sitting down, the chartered boat king started to praise Sioux City.
After following Su Cheng for a few days, Zhong Chuhong also learned something, at least she learned how to make tea.
So when she saw the boiling water and tea leaves on the coffee table, Zhong Chuhong obediently helped to make the tea.
The Charter King couldn't help but look at Zhong Chuhong and then at Su Cheng, and then he knew what their relationship was, and he couldn't help but sigh that it was great to be young.
"Mr. Bao, actually you invited us to meet, and I can roughly guess the purpose of this." Su Cheng did not brag with him, but smiled directly.
"Oh? Mr. Su, what do you think is the specific reason why I invited you to meet?" The chartering king couldn't help but smile.
“For obvious reasons, I don’t need to say it. Everyone here knows that the charter king is interested in the Wharf Group, and we are currently the largest shareholder of the Wharf Group and want to control the Wharf Group. , we have to pass this test first, of course, this is just a superficial reason, in fact, Mr. Bao has a deeper reason," Su Chengfeng said calmly. "The superficial reason is indeed true. I want to acquire the Wharf stocks in your hands, but what is the underlying reason? Mr. Su, please continue to talk about it."
Chartered Ship Wang suddenly became more and more curious about Su Cheng. Originally, he looked down upon Su Cheng. He felt that the acquisition was planned by someone like Zhang Qizheng, and Su Cheng was just sitting back and enjoying the results. After all, Su Cheng was young, but at this time he had already I started to correct my attitude, and the young man in front of me seemed to be really powerful.
"I have studied the history of world shipping in the past few years, especially since the last world oil crisis. Major oil-consuming countries have reduced oil imports and consumption, and the idle situation of supertankers has become more and more serious. And in Japan, We are still vigorously building ships. The result of this is nothing more than exacerbating the surplus of shipping ships in the world, resulting in a crisis of the Great Depression in the shipping industry.
As the person who currently owns the largest tonnage of ships in the world, Mr. Bao. If the information I checked is correct, the tonnage of the ships currently owned by Mr. Bao should exceed 20 million tons, right?"
Su Cheng continued to say with a smile.
At this time, the charter king had begun to become serious. The young man in front of him did have some information.
"Yes, the tonnage of the ships I control has exceeded 20 million tons." The chartered ship king nodded and admitted.
"Many of Mr. Bao's ships should have been purchased with loans. If there is an economic crisis in the shipping industry, the consequences can be imagined. It can range from heavy losses to the company going bankrupt. I wonder if Mr. Bao thinks what I am saying makes sense? Su Cheng smiled slightly, and after saying that, he took the teacup handed over by Zhong Chuhong and drank it in one gulp to moisten his throat.
"Mr. Su, please continue." The Charter King did not answer Su Cheng's words, but said seriously.
“So, what Mr. Bao has to do at this time is to reduce his burden before the crisis in the shipping industry breaks out. The easiest way is to sell the ship!
When the ship is reduced to an acceptable debt level, it will be able to survive this crisis safely
As for how to use the funds obtained from selling the ship, I think Mr. Bao will not spend the money so quickly. Even if you return it to the bank, you can't take the money and deposit it in the bank. The interest will not be offset by the interest.
The only way is to shift investment direction, and abandoning the boat to land must be Mr. Bao's plan, right? ”
Su Cheng said a lot in one breath.
At this time, the charter king seemed calm on the surface, but in fact, he was already in a turbulent heart.
The young man in front of him People are so terrifying. All his secret plans seem to be no secret at all in his eyes.
"So, Wharf became Mr. Bao's target. Why did he choose Wharf as his target? Woolen cloth? I guess the reason is actually very simple. Everyone knows about the industries owned by Wharf. It can be said that whoever owns Wharf controls the most important cargo handling and warehousing business in Hong Kong. These are all related to the huge fleet in the hands of Mr. Bao. It is extremely complete. How could Mr. Bao not take a fancy to such a company? ”
Su Cheng finally finished speaking in one breath.
“Bah bang bang!” The chartered boat king couldn’t help but applaud.
He was completely impressed by the young man in front of him.
Yes, his thoughts are exactly the same as what Su Cheng said.
As for Zhang Qizheng, he has known how powerful Su Cheng is for a long time, but at this time, he is the most mediocre one.
As for Zhong Chuhong, she had already transformed into a fangirl. At this time, her eyes were full of Su Cheng.
The boss is simply awesome.
Who doesn’t know the Charter King in Xiangjiang? He is the world’s number one shipping king with a net worth of tens of billions. Now, people like him are impressed by Su Cheng. This is no longer simply awesome.
