Reborn Tech Maniac

Chapter 697 Super rights issue exceeding [-] billion
"Xiangjiang Electric is a company with outstanding strength. Is it so easy to acquire it?" Tang Huan looked very disdainful of the hostile takeover that was beginning to become clear, and asked dissatisfiedly: "I don't understand your way of thinking. It's just a once-in-a-lifetime acquisition." It’s just an old-fashioned stock market extortion operation. As for asking me to withdraw funds from the United States?”

"But..." Before the reporter finished saying, "The relationship between you and HSBC is so stiff, if you don't transfer funds from the United States, where can you raise tens or even tens of billions of cash in a short period of time", Tang Huan opened the way with his assistant , walked into the lobby of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

……

"Did you find out, the richest man rarely showed unhappy emotions in public."

"Being targeted by Liu Luanxiong, a 'bone dismantling expert', will make anyone feel bad."

……

With the big boss at the front, Ma Shimin, the head class of Xiangjiang Electric, was ignored directly, and passed through the crowd smoothly amidst whispers. Tang Huan had already joined Wu Guangzheng, Wang Xueling, Huang Xizhao, Zhou Liangshuyi and others who had arrived one step earlier. to one place.They are here to witness the listing of Media Asia TV.

At the beginning of its establishment, Media Asia TV allocated its talent department and other resources related to entertainment content production to DreamWorks. Therefore, although it has grown rapidly in the past few years, as it focuses on the media field, its asset scale is not too large. , only about HK$8 million, which is far behind the comprehensive development of TVB.

Moreover, this public listing only routinely issued 20.00% of scattered shares in accordance with regulations, and the remainder is still in the hands of major shareholders.

In essence, Media Asia TV's listing this time is not for making money, but for putting on the cloak of a public company for better international expansion.

Even so, the current bull market is like a behemoth that can never get enough to eat, devouring the stock of Media Asia TV in an instant.

"The reporters are still guarding outside." Ma Shimin Gu Kong reported to Tang Huan.

"It's okay." Tang Huan smiled slightly, turned to Li Fuzhao, chairman of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and said, "Thank you for your care. To show my gratitude, I will specially host a banquet for you. You must honor me."

Tang Huan is so polite, because the current Hong Kong Stock Exchange is a "Li family kingdom", and the richest man has to follow the rules and do things as the locals do.

……

"Did you see, 'stock market extortion operation', Tang Huan didn't look down on our brothers at all." Huang Yulang pointed to the newspaper that truthfully recounted Tang Huan's remarks, and said with a sneer.

Liu Luanxiong was very calm, "What he said is not unreasonable. According to my original intention, I really just want to tear off a piece of fat, and then turn around and leave."

"But HSBC hopes to take this opportunity to really take down Xiangjiang Electric." Huang Yulang said gloatingly, and then said enviously: "After the completion of the work, it is estimated that Liu will be second to Li Bancheng. It’s useless to hold Xiangjiang Electric, and in the end, we have to transfer the shares to you on favorable terms like Hutchison.”

"It's too early to say." Liu Luanxiong, who was said to his heart, said humbly, "It's not that easy to snatch Xiangjiang Electric Lamp from Tang Huan."

"Tigers doze off sometimes, not to mention a living person. Now, it's a godsend opportunity for Tang Huan to be the weakest." Huang Yulang's eyes gleamed fiercely.

"It's been such a long time, and my brother hasn't let go of that obsession." Liu Luanxiong joked: "It's a pity, although Media Asia TV is on the market, DreamWorks has not seen this action. Otherwise, we will look for opportunities to mix If you are a shareholder, you can enter and exit there openly."

The face-saving Emperor Yulang didn't like this scar being taken as a joke by others. He frowned slightly and changed the subject: "Why hasn't Lin Jianyue arrived yet?"

"Let me ask." Liu Luanxiong also felt that the waiting time was a bit long, so he picked up his mobile phone, and while dialing, he muttered: "Tang's richest man is indeed rich, let's see, we are using his company's product."

Liu Luanxiong, who is obviously under a lot of pressure recently, tends to use chatter to soothe his emotions.

The call was quickly connected. Liu Luanxiong hummed twice, then hung up the line, and said to Huang Yulang, "He'll be there soon."

"This young master is really arrogant." Huang Yulang was a little impatient.

"Brother has been a little angry recently. Is it because he's single again? Why don't you go and relax." Liu Luanxiong gave a tacit wink.

"I think you are under too much pressure and need to vent." Huang Yulang scolded with a smile.

"To be honest, this is the first time I have played such a big game, and now I have spent billions of Hong Kong dollars. The interest alone is tens of millions every month." Liu Luanxiong clicked his lips, "Whenever I think about this, I can't help but I can’t help but tremble, I don’t know if it’s because of fear or excitement, but it feels so good!”

Huang Yulang said with admiration: "Liu's handwriting has gone from millions, tens of millions to hundreds of millions, billions, but in just two or three years, such an astonishing speed of development can only be explained by geniuses. "

"Brother, you are not bad. It took less than a year to establish a media kingdom." Liu Luanxiong raised his cup to greet him.

The two were flattering each other when Lin Jianyue arrived belatedly.Three Chaozhou fellows who can definitely be called young talents have finally gathered together.

Lin Jianyue didn't say anything, just drank as a penalty, and then said in a dull voice: "Da Liu, I can't continue to follow up on Xiangjiang Electric's actions. My family has made it clear that they no longer support me."

"Why?" Liu Luanxiong asked in surprise, "Last time, our two families acquired the Kadoorie family's hotel group together. Although it was not successful in the end, we still gained a lot."

"My father thinks it's different this time." Lin Jianyue sighed helplessly, "Hui Feng and Tang Huan are two lions, sandwiched between them, you, a cheetah, can advance and retreat freely, but we don't have that ability."

Liu Luanxiong was silent for a while, and then said bitterly: "I can understand Lin Bo's concerns. It's just a pity that the current situation is very good. The shares of Xiangjiang Electric held by our two companies are close to 30.00%, and it is not too long before a full acquisition. It’s far away, and even I’m starting to make a request—to join the board of directors of Xiangjiang Electric.”

"Heung Kong Electric will definitely refuse us to join the board of directors like the previous big hotel groups." Lin Jianyue shook his head, "If it really comes to the stage of proposing a comprehensive acquisition, then there is no way out, I think you should just see it Just settle it."

"I've boarded the HSBC ship, how can I get off now!" Liu Luanxiong muttered in his heart, and looked disapproving, "What's there to be afraid of? Wealth can be found in danger, not to mention I have backing."

Lin Jianyue nodded and said nothing, and then asked: "If you are interested in the shares of Xiangjiang Electric in my hand, I will sell them to you at a lower price than the market price; otherwise, I will sell them directly."

"No, I ate it all." Liu Luanxiong said quickly, gritting his teeth.

……

When Lin Jianyue said goodbye and left, Liu Luanxiong couldn't help but swear, "I can't trust you, fellow."

Huang Yulang, who was implicated innocently, coughed depressingly, "Isn't there still me? Even if Lin Jianyue suddenly withdrew, our offensive formation was not affected-you were the main force of the acquisition, and I continued to create media pressure."

"That's true." Liu Luanxiong, who suppressed the depression in his heart, nodded.

After the two discussed it, they got into the car separately. At this time, Liu Luanxiong suddenly received a call from Pu Weiss, the new chairman of HSBC, asking him to meet secretly at the old place immediately.

In fact, Liu Luanxiong and Pu Weishi had only had one such private contact so far - some things were unspeakable, and the other party was not generally cautious, so Liu Luanxiong couldn't help but feel a little curious and uneasy.

After the meeting, Pu Weishi first smiled and praised Liu Luanxiong, a stock market sniper, for how well he did, and then pointed out the theme, "According to reliable sources, the Qinhe Group is preparing to raise funds through a rights issue, and the scale will exceed 100 billion Hong Kong dollars. Tang Huan should have communicated with Li Fuzhao about this."

After hearing the news, Liu Luanxiong suddenly felt his head buzzing, and after a while he paled and said to himself: "How could this be? Since Tang Huan bought Landmark and Jardine, Tang Huan has always been the richest man. With a tyrannical posture, he firmly holds the shares of the entire consortium."

"It's nothing more than two reasons." Pu Wei smiled calmly, "One is that after several years of operation, Tang Huan is confident that he has fully grasped the ups and downs of Landmark and Jardine, just like Li Bancheng also used it. It took a few years to completely arrange my people into all the key positions of Huang; the other one is that our speculation is correct, now Tang Huan can't get funds from the United States, and he is pushed into a corner by you .”

Hearing the name of a fellow villager named Li Bancheng, Liu Luanxiong, who had been encouraged by the bait of "Li Bancheng No. 100", finally calmed down, and couldn't help cursing angrily in his heart: "This punk is really good at playing, I tried my best to get it from the stock market." The blood draw, the results of several times are added together, only a few hundred million; he is lucky, and the one shot is more than [-] billion."

"Qinhe's rights issue fundraising is so huge, can it be successful?" Liu Luanxiong asked with a fluke mentality.

"Now that the stock market is so bullish, coupled with the excellence of Qinhe's assets, is it possible to fail?" Pu Weishi looked like an idiot, "Liu Sheng, are you scared?"

"Afraid? Why should I be afraid?" Liu Luanxiong laughed loudly, "I forced Tang Huan to use his big move, so he must be running out of cards; and more importantly, the Qinhe series Heungkong Electric is not alone in the gap. What I am really worried about is that HSBC may be afraid?"

"It's a joke, all Xiangjiang's money is stored in HSBC, why are you afraid to say it!" Pu Weishi snorted disdainfully, "HSBC's goal will not change, even if Tang Huan can't be driven out of Xiangjiang, it must be beaten. This is a war that will determine the outcome, so that he can understand who is the leader with the greatest say."

"As long as HSBC doesn't give up halfway, Tang Huan's rights issue of more than 100 billion yuan is nothing special. It's just a further increase in the balance. All the money in Xiangjiang is in the hands of HSBC, so will you care about this threat? "Liu Luanxiong waved his arms passionately.

"So, I invited Liu Sheng here this time to discuss the next step." After testing each other's attitudes, Pu Weishi took a sip from his cup comfortably.

"It's very simple, the battle will be settled quickly." Liu Luanxiong is not afraid of anything, except the interest of huge fundraising, so he has always hoped that this capital war can be carried out at his own pace - as fast as possible. .

"Liu Sheng, you are indeed very talented in the capital market, but this time is different. The previous tricks may have been guarded against by the equally experienced opponent." Pu Wei Shi patiently pointed out.

……

As expected, the news from HSBC was fast enough. A day later, Qinhe's super rights issue plan appeared in the public eye, and the whole Xiangjiang was shaken immediately.

You must know that the Hang Seng Index, which is gaining gratifyingly, includes Jardine Matheson, Qinhe Strategy, Qinhe Infrastructure, Xiangjiang Telecom, Xiangjiang Electric, Mandarin Hotel, and Milk International, which are listed companies of the Qinhe Department. , the strength of Xiangjiang No. [-] consortium can be seen from this.

Among the power pyramids of the Qinhe Department, Qinhe Holdings and Qinhe Strategy are at the top.The former has nothing to say, it is the holding company of the entire group, and the latter is the most important capital market operator of Qinhe.They hold each other's shares, forming a solid Gemini structure.

The next floor is the main company of Qinhe.

Among them, Heungkong Telecom and Heungkong Electric are extremely important components in the communication and electric power fields of Heungkong utilities. The former, in particular, holds the franchise rights of local calls and long-distance calls. Currently the company with the highest market capitalization in Xiangjiang.

Qinhe Infrastructure is an infrastructure and real estate company that was reorganized from the assets of Jardine Matheson and Land, and inherited Land's listed status.

As for Landmark, which once belonged to the giant, it was stripped of a series of assets unrelated to real estate and privatized as the "big landlord" under the Tang family.

After Tang Huan completed the acquisition of Jardine and Landmark, the follow-up cash injection to rescue them was mainly completed through these steps.

Although Jardine Matheson was dismantled in an incomplete manner, it also had a second spring because of its light travel, but the status of this brand closely related to the historical Opium War has been completely reduced to second-rate.

Mandarin Hotel and Milk International are the most important companies separated from Hongkong Land. The flagship hotel of the former, the Mandarin Oriental Hotel on Hong Kong Island, is the only five-star hotel that can be compared with the Kadoorie Family Hotel Group’s Peninsula Hotel in Kowloon. Star hotel; the latter is the leader among Xiangjiang peers in retail, catering and other fields, and the Coca-Cola franchise that Tang Huan snatched from Swire Group was placed under its name.

In addition, although unlisted companies such as Qinhe Technology are not eye-catching, their status is also very important.

In this Qinhe series of super rights issue plans, the companies involved include Jardine Matheson, Qinhe Infrastructure, Hong Kong Telecom, Mandarin Hotel, and Dairy Milk International, which immediately stimulated the Xiangjiang stock market into a boom.
