Chapter 345: Taking advantage of the situation
As soon as the meeting ended, Tui Bijian couldn't wait to return to his office.
As the principal of Jardine Matheson Group, he is deeply aware of the difficulties in operating the group today.
Many places cannot get financial support when they need funds.
This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that some of their loans from Huifeng Bank, Barclays Bank, etc. are about to expire.
If the loan cannot be repaid in time after maturity, the creditworthiness will be reduced secondly. Some loans are mortgaged with equity and the like. When the bank has the power to sell these stocks, it will completely disrupt the group's business development.
So, now he is very, very urgent to sell Wharf shares as soon as possible in order to obtain the funds as soon as possible.
So, Nie Bijian now needs to contact Su City as soon as possible to reach this deal. It is best to get the HK$500 million today.
At this time, in the Su family villa on Barker Road, Su Cheng was swimming in his own swimming pool with his two beauties.
Today, Su Cheng doesn't want to go out for the time being, but he has become accustomed to exercising every day when he is free.
Therefore, indoor running or swimming is a good choice.
Although it is already November, the daytime temperature in Xiangjiang today reached a maximum of 28 degrees, which is still a bit hot.
When he was tired from swimming, Su Cheng got up and walked to the beach chair in the swimming pool to lie down. Gillian and A Mei, wearing sexy bikinis, followed Su Cheng up from the water.
"Master, do you want some fruit?" Gillian asked delicately, holding a bunch of grapes.
Today in Xiangjiang, the sky is clear and the sun is a bit dazzling.
Su Cheng picked up a pair of sunglasses, put them on, and said with a smile: "Eat it."
After hearing this, Gillian picked up a grape, peeled and cored it carefully, and Ami saw on the side status, also added.
At this time, Tui Bijian happened to make a call to Su Cheng’s living room.
I called several times, but still no one answered.
In a hurry, Twisted Wall Jian got angry in the office and smashed the cup on the desk to the floor. The "clang" sound frightened the young and beautiful female assistant beside him so much that he dared not speak out.
Ever since he took up the position of Taipan at Jardine, he has been a superior boss no matter what the occasion in Xiangjiang. Even when he got along with Mai Lihao, he was treated as an equal. When had he ever been so wronged?
After venting his anger, Tui Bijian collected his emotions and continued to make phone calls.
However, the place he called this time was no longer Su Cheng’s home, but the office of Hutchison Whampoa President Wei Li.
Before Wei Li took over Hutchison Whampoa in Sioux City, he once served as the chief executive of Hutchison Whampoa. They are all British-owned companies, so Nie Bijian and Wei Li are naturally connected.
He felt that the reason Su Cheng didn't answer the phone was because he was not at home.
This means that there is no trouble with mobile phones. If mobile phones become popular, finding someone will no longer be so troublesome.
So, now he can only ask Wei Li to see if Su Cheng has gone to the Hutchison Whampoa Headquarters Building.
In Nie Bijian's opinion, Su Cheng, as Hutchison Whampoa's top class, should go to the company frequently.
However, he had no idea that Su Cheng liked to be a hands-off shopkeeper and had never been to Hutchison Whampoa a few times.
The call was quickly connected. Wei Li was a little surprised when he heard that it was Nui Bijian who called him. When he learned that he was looking for Su Cheng, Wei Li said that Su Cheng was not in the company. , but I am also willing to help him find out where the boss is now.
Later, after Wei Li called Zhang Qizheng, Yang Chaoye, Li Yihui and others, they all said that the boss did not visit them today.
After a lot of trouble, Su Cheng’s call came to Ni Bijian’s office.
It turned out that at this time, Su Cheng had returned to the third floor from the swimming pool and was preparing to take a bath with hot water.
However, when passing by the phone, he habitually checked to see if there were any missed calls, only to find that there were several missed calls, and they were all from the same call. As soon as Su Cheng called, Nui Bijian answered the phone immediately.
"Mr. Nian Bijian, I'm so sorry. I just came back from outside. I saw your missed call and contacted you immediately." Su Cheng apologized.
"Mr. Su, we have already held a board meeting. We have agreed on a price of 500 million. I wonder if we can trade today?" Nian Bijian had already put aside his unhappiness and spoke quickly. asked.
Now that the meeting has been passed, he only wants money and not stocks.
“I didn’t expect that Mr. Nie Bijian is quite fast.”
Su Cheng was a little surprised when he heard Nie Bijian’s words.
It seems that Yihe's current situation is not good.
500 million Hong Kong dollars, is it not enough?
Forget it, people can't be too greedy. There's no point in regretting it now.
Thinking of this, Su Cheng smiled and said: "Mr. Nie Bijian, of course you can. Let's do this. In an hour, someone will go to the Jardine headquarters building to find you. At that time, you will have a detailed sales agreement. Let’s talk again. Once the contract is signed and I confirm it, the funds will be transferred to your company’s account immediately.”
In his opinion, a transaction of HK$500 million is not small. In this case, Su Cheng, as the boss, should come in person.
“I have something to do and I can’t leave. Don’t worry, Mr. Nie Bijian. You should also know the person I sent, Mr. Zhang Qizheng, the general manager of Tianyuan Investment Company. He will help me get everything done. , he will send me a copy of the contract via fax machine, and Mr. Nie Bijian should also know that I have my own bank, and I will arrange the bank transfer at that time," Su Cheng replied.
A few months ago, HK$500 million would indeed be considered a large sum of money for Sioux City.
But now, HK$500 million is not much for him.
So, signing the contract and so on can be left to Zhang Qizheng.
Anyway, the price has been negotiated, so he doesn't need to worry about the details.
After hanging up the phone, Tui Bijian felt much better, and things finally went smoothly.
Although he had been furious in the office before and was very dissatisfied with Su Cheng, but now that Su Cheng is recognized as the richest man in the world, he naturally did not dare to show it on the phone.
Now, just wait for Mr. Zhang Qizheng from Tianyuan Company to come to your door.
After Su Cheng hung up the phone call from Nui Bijian, he called Zhang Qizheng’s office at Tianyuan Investment Company.
On the phone, Su Cheng told Zhang Qizheng about the matter in detail.
As for Su Cheng’s explanation, Zhang Qizheng will naturally handle it well.
However, Zhang Qizheng was also very surprised at this time.
“Boss, you are taking advantage of the situation!” Zhang Qizheng said with emotion on the phone.
Having lived in Xiangjiang for five years, Zhang Qizheng naturally knows the value of Wharf.
Now, the boss actually bought 29.87% of Wharf's shares for HK$500 million. This is not an ordinary bargain, it can be regarded as taking advantage of the situation.
Of course, this is all a matter of your own free will. There is no forced purchase or sale. At this time, Zhang Qizheng only has sincere admiration for his boss.
