Chapter 1092 Investing in Cathay Pacific Airways


Last night, Su Cheng lingered in Ye Zimei's gentle hometown.

Ye Zimei does have a unique charm, and her every move and smile seems to bring endless temptation.

Her beauty is not only the beauty of her appearance, but also the charm that emanates from her bones.

It is a kind of charm that can make men fall for it, and Su Cheng is no exception.

One night seems like a wonderful dream to Su City.

In this dream, there were only two of him and Ye Zimei, immersed in each other's world.

Although she had slept all night, Ye Zimei still looked tired.

However, this fatigue did not weaken her beauty at all, but instead added a different charm.

There is a trace of laziness in her eyes, but there is also an indescribable charm, which is very beautiful.

The slightly raised corners of the mouth seemed to be telling the sweetness and satisfaction of last night.

In the morning, sunlight poured into the room through the gaps in the curtains, waking up the two sleeping people.

Su Cheng slowly opened his eyes and looked at Ye Zimei lying in his arms, feeling an inexplicable sense of satisfaction in his heart.

Ye Zimei also woke up at this time. She raised her head and looked at Su Cheng, her face couldn't help but turn rosy.

"Mr. Su, from now on I will only belong to you!" Ye Zimei said solemnly.

This sentence is not just a promise, but also a desire deep in her heart.

She knew that Su Cheng was an amazing person, and she was lucky to be favored by him.

She is willing to give up everything for Su Cheng and just be his woman.

Su Cheng smiled slightly when he heard Ye Zimei's words.

He gently stroked Ye Zimei's hair and said, "I will give Mr. Liang some advice and I will give you some good roles in the future."

Su Cheng knew that Ye Zimei was a Ambitious woman.

She longs to achieve something in her acting career, and he has the ability to fulfill her wish.

He was very satisfied with everything last night.

As for Ye Zimei, he had no intention of taking her home.

There are already four women at home, and they can already make up a mahjong table.

He is not an emperor, so he has accepted all those who could not have had that kind of relationship.

As for Ye Zimei's future, Su Cheng plans to let nature take its course.

Whether she becomes Su Cheng's lover for the rest of her life, or whether she decides to find an honest man and marry her, Su Cheng doesn't intend to interfere too much.

Everyone has their own choice, and he doesn't intend to force Ye Zimei to do anything she doesn't want to do.

He only hoped that before that, it would be enough to make him happy occasionally.

Opening the quilt, Ye Zimei's perfect figure was displayed in Su Cheng's eyes.

Her skin is like snow, her figure is curvy, and every part of her exudes feminine charm.

Su Cheng couldn’t help but sigh, what a stunning beauty.

This is the highest floor and the highest point of the Tseung Kwan O Center Building, so there is no need to worry about anyone peeping.

Here, they can enjoy their time to the fullest.

After having breakfast served, Su Cheng and Ye Zimei stayed in this big house until noon.

They ate breakfast and chatted, enjoying this rare quiet time.

During this process, Su Cheng discovered that Ye Zimei was not only a beautiful woman, she also had a smart mind and keen insight.

She has her own unique views on many things, which makes Su Cheng appreciate her even more.

At noon, Su Cheng and Ye Zimei had lunch upstairs.

The lunch was very sumptuous, with a variety of delicious dishes and exquisite snacks.

They were enjoying the delicious food and admiring the beautiful scenery outside the window, feeling particularly happy.

After lunch, Su Cheng left the Tseung Kwan O Center Building unhurriedly and entered the Tseung Kwan O headquarters base by car.

Daniel Harry, the president of Dali Logistics Company, called him in the morning and said that he wanted to see him for something.

However, with the beauty in his arms at the time, Su Cheng was naturally not in a hurry to deal with these matters.

For him, things at work are trivial, but good times are short-lived.

Therefore, he chose to enjoy the time with Ye Zimei first, and then deal with work matters when he was in a happy mood.

Dali Logistics Company, this company was originally based in Singapore, but was later acquired by Sioux City.

After the acquisition, the headquarters was moved to Xiangjiang.

Dali Logistics can make a lot of money just by relying on the logistics and transportation of Su Group, Hutchison Whampoa Group, Tianqiong Semiconductor Company and other major industries under Su City.

Moreover, Dali Logistics has gradually built its reputation in recent years, and has become a very well-known logistics company throughout Hong Kong, Nanyang, and even Europe and the United States.

Many large companies are customers of Dali Logistics.

So, today, in terms of scale, Dali Logistics can be regarded as the top logistics company in the world.

It not only involves sea transportation, land transportation, but also air transportation, with a total of fifty-sixty-sixty-five aircraft!

These aircraft transport various valuables around the world every day.

They are like a swarm of busy bees, bringing huge profits to Dali Logistics Company.

The success of Dali Logistics lies not only in its advanced equipment and efficient management team, but also in its ability to continuously adapt to market changes and meet customer needs.

When we arrived at Daniel Harry’s office, the foreigner was on the phone at this time.

Seeing Su Cheng, Daniel Harry quickly ended the call, stood up, and said hello to Su Cheng in not very standard Xiangjiang dialect.

The foreign senior executives of Xiangjiang enterprises under Suzhou City can basically speak Xiangjiang dialect, such as Wei Li, Langdon, Moore, etc.

Even if you didn’t know it before, learn it now. The same goes for Daniel Harry.

After he arrived in Xiangjiang a few years ago, in addition to managing the company well, he also learned Xiangjiang dialect in his spare time. In this city where Xiangjiang dialect is the main language, it is naturally easy to learn.

So, after a few years, Daniel Harry can not only listen to Xiangjiang dialect, but also can talk, but it is not so standard.

Su Cheng nodded and said with a smile: "Mr. Daniel, why do you want to see me?"

His tone was relaxed, with a faint smile on his face. He knew that there must be something important when Daniel Harry came to him.

However, he is not in a hurry, and he believes that Daniel Harry will make things clear.

“Boss, do you know about the establishment of Dragonair?” Daniel asked.

"Of course, that's a big deal, how could I not know about it?" Su Cheng said with a smile.

Two months ago, Dragonair was established jointly by more than 30 Hong Kong business tycoons including Bao Yugang and Li Ka-shing, as well as Chinese-funded institutions in the mainland.

At that time, Su Cheng was actually invited, but Su Cheng was not very interested because he knew that Dragonair was destined to fail.

After all, even if everyone knows that Xiangjiang will soon return to the motherland, before the return, the Governor's Office still has the final say here.

Therefore, Dragonair cannot compete with the original old airline Cathay Pacific.

However, he also selectively invested one million Hong Kong dollars in his own name, which is considered gregarious.

Afterwards, he ignored the Dragonair matter.

For Sioux City, this one million Hong Kong dollars is nothing more than wasted money, and it has never been considered whether it can be repaid.

Of course, he didn't take this small amount of money seriously.

As expected, Dragonair, which was founded more than two months ago, is now being targeted by the Hong Kong government at every turn.

The most amazing thing is that the Xiangjiang government also issued an aviation regulation. Each route can only be operated by one airline.

As for the good routes, they have basically been occupied by Asia Pacific Airways. Dragonair can only be forced to operate those routes that are not popular.

Not popular means low customer flow, and low customer traffic means you are destined to lose money!

Therefore, Dragonair is actually destined to end in tragedy.

Sioux City rarely pays attention to the matter of Dragonair. For him, it is just about participating.

Because he knew that even if he wanted to rely on funds to start Dragonair, he would not be able to succeed.

It is better to ignore it than to do this.

“Shiyok, the chief executive of Swire Pacific, called me and asked if our Dali Logistics Company was interested in investing in Asia Pacific Airlines.” Daniel Harry continued.

There was a hint of excitement in his voice, as if this news was very important to him.

“Huh?” Su Cheng felt a little strange when he heard Daniel’s words.

Logically speaking, Shi Yoke wanted to call him, but he didn't expect that he would be beaten.

“It’s like this. Although Asia Pacific currently has the support of the Hong Kong government, it is also because Dragonair is feeling pressure, and our Dali Logistics company’s aviation business is actually better than that of Asia Pacific. To be strong, it’s just that we are attracting goods, and they are attracting people.

So Shi York has considered that if we invest, they will not only be able to compete with the new competitor Dragonair, but also improve Yatai. The strength of the airline, they know that you, the boss, are not interested in Dragonair, so they came up with the idea of ​​​​pulling us to unite with them to fight Dragonair

Moreover, we have a large number of large passenger aircraft, and they hope to rent our aircraft during busy periods. He hopes that I will report to you on this matter and explain the benefits. "Daniel Harry reported.

Sioux City listened quietly to Daniel Harry's report and began to think about the pros and cons of this matter.

Yatai Airlines is a subsidiary of Swire Pacific An important enterprise.

It has always occupied an important position in Xiangjiang's aviation market.

If Dali Logistics can invest in Asia Pacific Airlines, it will undoubtedly bring benefits to the company's development. Great benefits.

However, this also means facing some risks.

After all, Swire & Co. has always been very cautious, and they will not give up their shares easily.

This time Shi York took the initiative to let Dali Logistics invest, and he must have some considerations behind it.

“How many shares do they plan to sell?” Su Cheng asked with a smile. His eyes shone with wisdom, and he seemed to have read through Shiyok's mind.

“Currently they are willing to provide 30% of the shares and let us raise HK$1 billion.” Daniel Harry reported.

1 billion Hong Kong dollars is not expensive.

After the growth in the past few years, listed companies with a market value of more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars in the Hong Kong stock market have become commonplace. This is no longer the case a few years ago when even a company with a market value of 10 billion Hong Kong dollars was rare.

So, based on this price, Asia Pacific Airlines is valued at more than HK$3 billion, which is really not much.

However, today's Asia Pacific Airlines is not a listed company, it is still a wholly-owned enterprise owned by Swire Pacific.

So, its valuation is uncertain.

Anyway, if the valuation is more than HK$3 billion, it is definitely not high.

This price is relatively reasonable.

What Su Cheng didn’t expect was that Shi York was actually willing to give up 30% of his shares?

You must know that the reason why Swire Pacific has not allowed Asia Pacific Airlines to be listed is that it is afraid that after Asia Pacific Airlines is listed, it will be targeted by Chinese-owned enterprises.

Hutchison Whampoa, Wheelock, Wharf and other major British banks fell one after another, which heightened the vigilance of Swire Pacific.

"Mr. Daniel, do you think that if we agree to buy shares this time, will there be a chance to win this airline in the future?" Su Cheng asked with a smile.

Sucheng is naturally not willing to be a shareholder. If you want to be a shareholder, be its controlling shareholder.

However, it is now clear that this idea is difficult to realize.

I just don’t know if there will be a chance to come true in the future.

As Xiangjiang develops faster and faster, Asia Pacific Airlines’ passenger traffic is increasing sharply every year. It can be said that this airline will make a lot of money in the future.

If you can control it, you can really make a lot of money.

However, it is not easy to control it.

In the previous life, even the state failed to win its controlling stake, let alone Sioux City.

“I don’t know. Who can say for sure what will happen in the future? But no matter what, with the current profits of Asia Pacific Airlines, it is actually a very cost-effective thing for us to become a shareholder. It is just a dividend. , At the current rate of development, maybe we will be able to recoup our capital in a few years, and we will still hold shares by then!" Daniel said with a smile.

Su Cheng nodded, he knew what Daniel said made sense.

With the current development trend of Asia Pacific Airlines, investing in it is indeed a good choice.

However, he cannot help but consider the risks he may face.

What should I do if I get misunderstood by Chinese companies if I invest in Asia Pacific Airlines?

After all, in this special period, any move may cause unnecessary trouble.

“What I’m worried about is that if I invest in Asia Pacific Airlines, I will be misunderstood by Chinese companies.” Su Cheng said with some worry.

"It's good to make this clear. With Mr. Su's current status, you don't need to look too much at other people's faces when doing things. What's more, this kind of thing is actually nothing. If they want it in the future, you can also use Asia Pacific Airlines Selling the company’s shares to them is also a great achievement!” Daniel laughed.

Su Cheng fell into deep thought.

He knew that Daniel's words made sense.

With his current status and influence, he really doesn’t need to care too much about other people’s opinions. (End of this chapter)
