Hong Kong's new giants

"Hey...well...what do you think we should do...Okay, let's make a black market purchase!"

After hanging up the phone, he handed it to He Jun, and then he returned to the dinner table.

Zheng Yutong saw that Lin Zuhui's face was a little warm and angry, and persuaded with the mentality of an elder: "Don't be angry, don't get angry, keep a good attitude, and your work efficiency will be doubled."

Lin Zuhui smiled and said, "Uncle Tong is right!"

Often playing with Zheng Yutong, Lin Zuhui found that he really looks like a "Maitreya Buddha" all the time. Obviously, Lin Zuhui can't do this in terms of self-cultivation.

Seeing everyone's eyes cast over, Lin Zuhui smiled generously and said, "Hysan Land announced that the major shareholder of United Paul Y. Construction will participate in the anti-acquisition at a price that is two-thirds higher than ours!"

Everyone was surprised!

Lin Zuhui has always been the only one who attacks others, but now some people dare to break ground when they are too old!

Liu Luanxiong said: "Hysan Land has always been conservative, how could it be involved in this kind of thing?"

Lin Zuhui sneered and said, "Hysan not only uses the banner of justice to 'shave the head' of the stock market, but also proposes to change the name of the conservative image. Haha, it can be said that it is famous for its success!"

Everyone paused, Hysan Land was planning to step on Lin Zuhui's head to change the impression others had of them—conservative, it really is a good strategy!

Moreover, everyone also felt that Hysan Land had done it. Now that it proposed an anti-acquisition with two-thirds higher than that of New Era, it immediately won the support of shareholders and public opinion. After all, Lin Zuhui this time is a hostile acquisition of Paul Y.

So what should Lin Zuhui do?In other words, if I were in Lin Zuhui's position, how would I break the situation?

Raise the price again?

The price is a bit high. Hysan joined the anti-acquisition, which forced New Era Group to increase its shareholding to more than 45% to be safe.To do this, they had to pay a high price to acquire the remaining ten percent of the shares. After all, Hysan Land raised the price by a full two-thirds.

In this way, even if they lost, Hysan Land won the applause!

So, no matter what, Lin Zuhui seems to be losing face this time!

Here are some of your thoughts!

Lin Zuhui soon became relaxed, and said with a smile: "Come on, let's talk less about work at the party, and continue to have fun!"

Zheng Yutong also said: "Yes, the party should talk less about work and have fun!"

……

On Sunday morning, Lin Zuhui brought Liang Zhenxun, Chen Bin, and Gao Yi to Enping Road.

Lin Zuhui pointed to the old buildings on half a street, and said domineeringly: "Buy this piece of old buildings for me, act fast, and just pay the price!"

The old buildings he pointed to did not occupy a large area, and the combined buildings were only 2 to 3 square feet.

However, the intersection of roads at this place is called 'Hysan Avenue', where Hysan Land is the home of.In this area, Lee Garden Phase [-] and Lee Garden Phase [-] are a few hundred meters away from Hysan Place.

The place Lin Zuhui is pointing at may be the future land of 'Grandland Centre', the headquarters of Hysan Land.

The three of them immediately knew Lin Zuhui's intentions, and they were 'tit for tat'.

Chen Bin said with a little worry: "If this property is the owner, what will the Li family do?"

The implication is that if this is the case, it is a "nail building". What if Hysan Land uses the same trick in the future?

After all, the New Era Group is also in the same situation as the building.

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Currently Hysan Land has not announced plans to merge buildings and rebuild here. We are the first to come. We can't let the entire Causeway Bay be allocated to Hysan Land."

First come, first served, a normal truth!

Liang Zhenxun said: "Yes, the boss must have predicted Hysan Real Estate's intentions and join them first! If the owner of the property here does not have the Lee family, then we will be prosperous. After the building is successfully merged, we can build a A high-end commercial building of more than 60 square feet. If it is the property of the Li family, then we are the first to start the reconstruction plan and take the initiative."

Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "I am definitely not doing it for revenge, but just for the company's development needs. But we must act quickly and don't give others a chance to respond! We can let Huaren Real Estate complete this project, and the cash flow in its account is sufficient !"

A high-end commercial building of 60 square feet is only two or three streets away from the Royal Mansion, and its value can be said to be higher than that of the Royal Fort.

After returning to the office, Chen Bin hurriedly summoned people from the marketing department to work overtime, formulated a building merger team, and officially started contacting all owners on Monday.

……

Monday, October 5.

New Era Group began to keep silent about Hysan Land's anti-acquisition of Paul Y. Construction, and did not accept any interviews with reporters.Therefore, the market began to rumor that Lin Zuhui's head was shaved this time, which seemed to have lost face.

After all, the anti-acquisition price proposed by Hysan Land is 8.3 yuan per share, while the purchase price proposed by New Times Group is only 5 yuan per share (the total share capital of Paul Y. Construction is 1.02 million shares).

If the New Era Group raises the price to make an acquisition, even if it wins, it will be "taken for granted". After all, Baohua Construction is not worth the money.

The media all believed that it was the best choice for Lin Zuhui and the New Era Group to die down.

In fact, at this time, Liang Botao was busy contacting the minority shareholders who owned Baohua Construction. New Times Group planned to absorb the shares to the safety line of 51% through black market, and then declare victory.

As for the comprehensive acquisition, the highest price will not exceed 9 yuan per share, which is still affordable.

It's better than being caught in the bidding!

The so-called dark market refers to transactions that are not completed through formal trading platforms.New Times Group chose this method to increase its shareholding, one is to avoid raising the price of Paul Y. Construction, and the other is to catch Hysan Land by surprise.

At this time, although many stockholders sold their shares to Hysan Land one after another, a considerable number of stockholders were still waiting for the offer from New Era Group.

……

This time, Hysan Land was born out of nowhere, causing New Era Group a lot of losses, and more importantly, a loss in reputation.

Lin Zuhui, the boss of New Era Group, also held his breath!

On the same day, the six merging teams of the New Times Group were dispatched one after another, and began to contact the 26 owners of the old street on Enping Road.

Li Fulai is the leader of one of the teams, and found the first target owner in the morning.

"Mr. Sun, New Era Real Estate would like to buy your unit on Enping Road. The price must be fair!" Li Fulai made an appointment at the owner's work unit, explaining his intentions.

"This... that place is a property that I plan to collect for a long time, and I don't plan to sell it!" Mr. Sun said deliberately.In fact, the real estate in Xiangjiang was sluggish at this time, and the area was too old, so Mr. Sun intended to sell it.

"Mr. Sun, wouldn't it be better for you to invest in real estate with our money. After all, that area is now an old-fashioned building, and the rent is not high."

"What price do you offer?"

"Currently, the rent of your place is 5 a month, and the market price is about 400 million. We are willing to pay 480 million!"

Mr. Sun's eyelids twitched and his heart fell into ecstasy. He was very satisfied with the price.

"More than 400 million is ugly, I don't like to bring 4!"

"This... Mr. Sun, you know, that area is really old..."

After some rhetoric, the two parties initially negotiated, the price was set at 515 million, and they agreed to sign the contract at the lawyer's office the next day.

Li Fulai knew that the reason why it went so smoothly was that the company had spoken out, and they could quickly sign contracts within 20% of the market price.If someone opens his mouth and says more than 20%, it will not be considered, and then it will be handed over to a third-party intermediary company for negotiation.

Chapter 236 [Let the bullets fly for a while! 】

October 5, Wednesday.

Three companies, Jardine Mathematics, Yistra, and Hongkong Land, announced the suspension of trading. On the same day, Yistra announced that it would purchase Hongkong Land shares held by New World, Cheung Kong, Henderson and Huaxin at a price of HK$8.95 per share, accounting for 8.2% of the total issued shares of Hongkong Land. 18.34%, involving [-] billion yuan.

The sudden flames of land acquisitions were suddenly extinguished, and market participants were greatly disappointed.Yice purchased 8.2% of the shares, increasing all Hongkong shares from 26% to 34%, which did not trigger a comprehensive acquisition, but also greatly strengthened the holding capacity.

What is puzzling is that there is an additional condition in the agreement, which restricts the Chinese-funded consortium participating in the acquisition from getting involved in Hongkong Land's equity within seven years.Why did the Chinese consortium withdraw from the acquisition so quickly and sign this 'shameful' agreement?

For a while, there were different opinions, and the big bosses of Chinese capital were tight-lipped.

……

Back to New Era Group, the company has absorbed a large number of shares in Baohua Construction through secret purchases in the market, increasing its holdings to 43%. Of course, even if it is a secret purchase, its price is higher than 8.3 yuan, at 8.3 yuan ~ About 8.8 yuan.

In the conference room, Lin Zuhui had already calmed down and was arranging the next layout.

"New Era Group announced tonight: to fully acquire Baohua Construction at a price of 8.8 yuan per share."

The price of 8.8 yuan is equivalent to a little more than twice the price before the acquisition war. This time, the New Times Group is equivalent to a loss of 2-3 million yuan.However, Baohua Construction is still worth the money; Baohua Construction also has a Baohua Building, which is also worth about [-] million.

Baohua Construction can build skyscrapers and hotels, and it is also among the top ten construction companies in Xiangjiang; it is very important to the future territory of New Times Group, so Lin Zuhui will not care if he spends a little more money.

Although Hysan Land is using the slogan of shaving their heads, in fact, it just wants to master a construction company and improve its reputation.

Liang Botao nodded, and said, "Well, basically on Friday we can announce the first acquisition of 51% equity and declare success!"

For New Era Group, it has already offered a "sky-high price" of 8.8 yuan. As long as it takes the lead to reach 51% of the shares, the acquisition will be successful.Even if the remaining 49% of the shareholders do not sell, it is still a successful acquisition, which is beneficial to New Times Group, that is, it does not need to pay more money to control Paul Y. Construction.

Lin Zuhui added: "Since the winning ticket is already in hand, there is no need to put too much energy on it! We have to prepare immediately: Chinese Land and Cathay City will issue 10% new shares and sell them to New Times Group."

Liang Zhenxun immediately said: "We are already applying to the Stock Exchange, and we expect to make an official announcement next week!"

Lin Zuhui said regretfully: "After this round of stock market crash, I originally planned to privatize Cathay City, but at present, we can only choose to give up."

Everyone nodded, indeed!

After the stock market crash of New Times Group, it spent a total of 40 billion on the purchase of land and old buildings (including the property on the Lantian subway station). A lot of money was spent on the new shares of the subsidiary, and it is estimated that the debt will return to 45 billion (more than 3 million was repaid during the period).

"But it doesn't matter, increasing the shareholding of the two subsidiaries to more than 45% can be regarded as fulfilling my minimum goal!" Lin Zuhui comforted himself.

As a result, there is only one plan left for the New Times Group in this round, which is to privatize the Furama Hotel.This plan is not in question anyway, Cathay City owns 51% of its shares and no one can participate in the bidding.

Lin Zuhui intends to privatize the remaining 49% of the shares in the name of the family, which is expected to involve 7 million yuan (30% premium).

……

Hysan Land.

In the conference room, Li Dingchang, the third-generation successor of Li Hysan, was sitting in the chair of the board of directors, appearing to be in a very good mood.

Li Tingchang is the son of Lee Hysan's fifth son Rong Jie. After obtaining a bachelor's degree in civil engineering from the University of Manchester, he worked as a lawyer in the Supreme Court of England and Wales. After that, he officially entered the family business and officially took over the board of directors of Hysan Land this year Chairman, let Hysan Land return to the leadership of the Lee family.

In 1981, after the death of the second-generation successor, Hysan Land recruited managing directors around the world; that is to say, in the past seven years, Hysan Land actually adopted the professional manager model.

Therefore, after Li Dingchang regained control of Hysan Land, he urgently hoped to change the company's consistent "conservative" impression, so he joined the acquisition of Paul Y. Construction.

Sure enough, he received the expected good results. Hysan Land not only occupied public opinion and morality in this acquisition battle, but also hoped to win Baohua Construction.

Paul Y. Construction is a good company. If it is acquired, Hysan Land will be even more powerful.

"How many shares of Baohua Construction have we acquired?" Li Dingchang asked.

"Chairman, we have acquired 15% of the shares of Paul Y. Construction, plus the 15% from its major shareholder, which is equivalent to our owning 30% of the shares."

"Okay, I believe we can increase our shareholding to more than 45% soon, and then we will only need to take control of Baohua Construction at a very small price!"

In Li Dingchang's thinking, as long as Hysan Land acquires more than 30% of the shares, plus 15% of the major shareholder of Paul Y. Construction, and a small amount of shares of other shareholders, it will win in one fell swoop, and there is no need to launch a comprehensive acquisition .

Its price is not too high, much smaller than the cost of New Era Group's hostile takeover!

What he cared more about was defeating Lin Zuhui!

That's "Superman Lin" who just defeated Superman Li twice. Doesn't that mean that he defeated Superman Li?

……

In the evening of the same day, Liang Botao, the financial advisor of New Era Group, officially announced that New Era Group holds 43% of the shares of Paul Y. Construction, and in accordance with the securities regulations, it will make a full acquisition of Paul Y. Construction at a price of 8.8 yuan per share.

After Li Dingchang heard the news, he urgently consulted with someone.

"How did New Era Group's shareholding increase from 32% to 43%?" Li Dingchang said with a confused face.

Logically speaking, even if there are shareholders who want to sell their stocks from Monday to Wednesday, they should go to Hysan Land to register, because their bids are higher than two-thirds of New Times Group.

"It was acquired through black market, and the minority shareholders of Paul Y. Construction were basically sold to New Era Group." The acquisition consultant said.

Li Dingchang's face became stiff immediately, he did not think of this move, and no one in Hysan Land also thought of this move.

"If it passes through the black market, then the stock price should be more attractive than 8.3 yuan per share!"

"Yes, it must be higher than our purchase price!"

After thinking for a long time, Li Dingchang asked again: "Do we still have a chance to fight back?"

The acquisition consultant said: "The time may be too late, and their shareholding will almost increase to more than 47% tomorrow. Moreover, the price is too high!"

It was Li Dingchang who proposed to buy Paul Y. Construction at a price that was two-thirds higher than that of New Age. The acquisition consultant did not suggest this; but Li Dingchang insisted on this because he wanted to make Hysan Land less conservative , Change the outside world's impression of Hysan Land.

Therefore, at this time, since New Times Group has made an offer, there is almost no time for Hysan Land to make an offer again, after all, it will be the weekend soon.

And the price of 8.8 yuan per share is definitely full of temptation. It is more than double the price before the takeover battle, and others can buy it in a day.

The key point now is that Hysan Land cannot make a profit through this acquisition, and their cost is 8.3 yuan.

The only gain is that Hysan Land has made New Era Group suffer a big loss and won some people's appreciation.

"Okay, let them win! We will sell the stock to them later, and at least we can make a few million yuan!"

Earn a P, once the acquisition fee is paid, Hysan Land will not make money, the executives thought to themselves.

The only good thing is that there was a wave of good advertisements, but Liang Zi also accepted it.
