Hong Kong's new giants

He will not regard Lin Zuhui as a real junior, at least in the business field, Lin Zuhui is qualified to be in the same generation as him.

He even deeply felt Lin Zuhui's thoughtful strategy. Lin Zuhui quoted prices twice, although he rejected them both.But he never dared to take a peek at Lin Zuhui, for fear that he would make a public acquisition.

At that time, as soon as the quotation of 330 Hong Kong dollars came out, most of the other shareholders would not be able to resist this temptation, and even their old friends He Tian and Liang Qiuju had already been shaken.

And he himself only holds 30% of the shares. Once Lin Zuhui acquires 51% of the shares, he will only have to sell them.

The price of 330 Hong Kong dollars is definitely quite attractive!

Lin Zuhui smiled and handed the gift to the servant of He Shanheng's family, and said politely: "Mr. He is a senior, and I am a junior. Some small gifts can only represent my heart!"

He Shanheng didn't hesitate, and invited Lin Zuhui into the villa together.

In the living room, the two chatted briefly, and Lin Zuhui began to clarify his intentions.

"Mr. He, Iraq's invasion of Kuwait yesterday will inevitably lead to a skyrocketing oil price, and the auto retail business of Hengchang Enterprises may be greatly affected!"

He Shanheng smiled and said, "Does Lin Sheng still like it?"

Lin Zuhui said frankly: "Of course, my quotation remains unchanged. I like Hengchang Enterprise because I like the 4000 foreign trade talents of Hengchang Enterprise. After the acquisition, they will develop and grow."

He Shanheng was finally moved. He got the news yesterday and also considered that Hengchang Enterprise's automobile trade would be greatly affected, so he already planned to sell Hengchang Enterprise.Now that Lin Zuhui's quotation remains the same, he immediately feels much better.

However, He Shanheng was still a little dissatisfied and said: "Oil has risen and fallen, and the temporary impact will not cause much loss! To tell the truth, Hengchang Enterprise still has 8 million worth of cash and stocks in its account, so its net value has already been reduced." More than 85 billion!"

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "He Sheng, if I make a public acquisition, I am afraid that you will be the only one who will not agree!"

His tone was joking, but with a hint of toughness.

He Shanheng said playfully: "Maybe, do you want to try? But you may only have one chance, if you miss it, you will have no chance!"

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "So I still hope that Mr. He will complete this acquisition, and I am willing to do one thing for Mr. He!"

He Shanheng became curious and asked, "What's the matter?"

Lin Zuhui said seriously: "Mr. He has spent his whole life in Hang Seng Bank and Hengchang Enterprises. He can't sell them all and exchange them for vain money. After I acquired Hengchang Enterprises, I sold Hengchang Building to the How about you? Mr. He took this building to collect rent, and he can get in touch with 'Hengchang'."

This is Lin Zuhui's real trump card. Hang Cheong Building is located in Central, and it is a high-quality property.It is also a high-quality asset for Lin Zuhui, not to mention for Ho.

However, Hengchang Building belongs to Hengchang Enterprise, and it is impossible to belong to He's no matter what.Now that Lin Zuhui has made the impossible possible, how can He's not be moved.

He Shanheng was really tempted, and said with a smile: "What a talented person in the business world, within three to five years, Superman Li is not as good as you!"

Lin Zuhui said modestly: "You are too old, I am far from Li Chaoren!"

After thinking for a while, He Shanheng said: "Although your conditions are very attractive, I still can't take the lead in supporting you, because we still haven't discussed many details. You bring people to Hengchang Enterprise for negotiation on Sunday, and I won't deliberately stop you." This acquisition, but you need to convince all shareholders and publicly issue an acquisition statement.”

He Shanheng did this because he was worried about being accused of taking kickbacks, of course Lin Zuhui understood.

So he said confidently: "Don't worry, Mr. He, we are confident in reaching this deal!"

He Shanheng nodded, he actually knew that the two old partners were already in love, and of course he was also in love!

……

At the beginning of a new week, Lin Zuhui led Liang Botao, Liang Zhenxun and others to Hengchang Enterprise for talks again.This time the negotiations took a long time and were discussed in detail.

The acquisition consortium vowed to guarantee that Hengchang will not be dismantled, nor will employees be dismissed. The mechanism of Hengchang will continue as before. Hengchang, which was founded by the older generation, will flourish under the management of the new leadership.

The conversation went well that day, and almost all the three elders of Hengchang Enterprise showed signs of agreement.

then.

On the evening of the same day, Peregrine formally proposed to acquire Hengchang Enterprises on behalf of New Era Group in the media, at a price of 330 Hong Kong dollars per share, involving a capital of 69.3 billion. The acquisition ended on August 8.

This is a rare acquisition by a non-listed company in Hong Kong according to the practice of listed companies. Hengchang has a total of 430 shareholders, so Hengchang is no longer considered a private company, but is actually a public company.The only difference between it and a listed company is that its shares are not listed for trading.

Unlisted public companies are still subject to Hong Kong's takeovers and mergers code as takeovers have been made public.That is to say, when a consortium acquires more than 35% of a company's equity, it must purchase the company's shares at the highest price within 6 months and propose a comprehensive acquisition in cash.Of course, this is the goal of New Era Group.

……

Tuesday, August 8th.

Public opinion in Xiangjiang was once again ignited.

"Economic Daily" used the headline "The largest transaction in Xiangjiang's history reached 69.3 billion yuan". The article pointed out that if this transaction is reached, New Times Group has become a huge comprehensive group, involving all walks of life in Xiangjiang , the prospect is very good.

"Oriental Daily" used "not afraid of high debts, New Times Group intends to spend another 69.3 billion to win Hengchang Enterprises." This newspaper has always been at odds with Lin Zuhui.

The media are so wonderful, naturally, inquiries from friends are indispensable.

Zheng Yutong called directly and said, "I knew you were buying Hengchang Enterprises. I lost to you, and I was convinced!"

Lin Zuhui smiled and said to Zheng Yutong who was opposite: "Uncle Tong, you lost to me. According to Mr. He, even if your bid is slightly lower, you will be considered!"

He pretended not to know that it was impossible for He Shanheng to be sold to Beiyi, because Beiyi wanted to spin off Hengchang Enterprise.

Zheng Yutong smiled wryly and said, "I can't afford this price. You know mine. I don't like topping the market price. But if you dare to buy it publicly, don't you think Brother He and the others have already agreed?"

Lin Zuhui said generously: "Let's be close to ten, otherwise I wouldn't dare to offend them!"

Zheng Yutong seemed to be in a better mood again, and said: "Then congratulations in advance, you have a treat on the weekend, let's get together!"

"no problem!"

Chapter 362 [Re-donation]

Wednesday, August 1990, 8.

Peregrine announced that 72.24% of the shareholders of Hengchang Enterprises have accepted the acquisition, which has been successful.

Lin Zuhui came to HSBC to discuss the acquisition of Hengchang corporate loans.Unlike other consortiums, Lin Zuhui talks about acquisitions first, and then loans.

Because he didn't want to leak the news at the beginning, and the cash flow of the New Times Group was more than 60 billion, not to mention Lin Zuhui's personal funds.

When it comes to large loans, it is natural to go directly to HSBC boss Pu Weiss, not to mention that Lin Zuhui has been dispatched.

Lin Zuhui was warmly received when he came to Pu Weishi's office. He has always been the banker's welcome target.Coupled with the fact that the company has now become a comprehensive giant, the prospect can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.

After taking a sip of tea, Lin Zuhui said, "I came to HSBC this time to get a loan of 30 billion yuan!"

Pu Weishi nodded and said, "I probably guessed it. There is no problem with this loan. But I'm curious. Doesn't New Times Group plan to spin off Hengchang Enterprises?"

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "There is no need to split Hengchang Enterprise. After I acquire it, I will actively rely on Hengchang Enterprise to develop comprehensive projects and make this company another flagship subsidiary of New Times Group."

New Times Group now has four real trump companies: New Times Real Estate/Construction, Chinese Real Estate, New Times Hotel, and Hengchang Enterprises.

Pu Weishi must admire the young Lin Zuhui. In the past two months, this man has had a lot of influence in Hong Kong. He proposed that "Hong Kong culture revitalize Hong Kong" has created a lot of influence in Hong Kong. Even the Legislative Council is considering introducing Support Policies.

Not to mention, how many major projects New Times Group has launched in the past two years, and its influence in the Hong Kong business community is increasing day by day.

Prowess nodded and said, "As far as we know, the New Era Group has sufficient cash in its accounts, and almost no loans are needed! Just a little splitting of some assets can relieve the financial pressure of the New Era Group."

New Era Group has 120 billion in debt, of which HSBC is the largest creditor, accounting for almost one-third.Therefore, it is reasonable for HSBC to understand the capital situation of New Era Group.

Lin Zuhui said: "New Times Group will have a lot of investment activities in the future, so it plans to hang the debt on Hengchang Enterprises, so that it will not affect the next business activities."

Powell sighed secretly for Lin Zuhui's pioneering spirit, but HSBC also likes to invest in such Chinese businessmen, which is in line with its own interests.

"Okay, I agree to this loan, and I can withdraw it anytime!"

Lin Zuhui nodded and said, "Thank you!" He suddenly remembered something, and immediately said, "If HSBC has any real estate projects, I would like to consider our New Times Group. We are also very sincere!"

As an old British-owned company, it naturally has rich properties that can be used for reconstruction. For example, HSBC Bank is located at the old site of the staff quarters at No. 23 Pokfield Road, Hong Kong. It can rebuild two 30-storey residential buildings with a total area of ​​​​up to [-]. more than square feet.

Mosquitoes are meat no matter how small!

Pu Weishi nodded and said, "If there is something we can cooperate with, we will seriously consider it!"

Lin Zuhui finished his point and didn't say anything else.

The reason why he said this is that he lamented that the land in Xiangjiang is decreasing day by day, and it is a little bit more to develop.

……

On Thursday, Peregrine announced that 99.8% of the shareholders of Hengchang Enterprises had accepted the acquisition, and the acquisition was completed.

Although the largest asset transaction in the history of Xiangjiang has been completed, the citizens of Xiangjiang are obviously not in the mood to pay attention. The Hang Seng Index has fallen to 3020 points in just five or six trading calendars, and a rapid downward trend has occurred, and stockholders are crying out. .

In the office, Lin Zuhui just paid attention to the stocks, and then began to think seriously.

He has always felt that the New Era Group has many subsidiaries and is not easy to manage.

After the acquisition of Hengchang Enterprises, he wanted to position Hengchang Enterprises as 'Hutchison Whampoa';

The only difference is that Hengchang Enterprise is a non-listed company.

Commit communications, retail, ports, and medicine to Hengchang (holding);

New Era Group——New Era Real Estate/Construction, New Era Hotel, Chinese Real Estate, Hengchang Holdings, New Era Group (Hua Xia).

The investment in real estate and infrastructure in the mainland is also separately separated, and they will be split and listed in the future to cash out.

Thinking of this, Lin Zuhui nodded, that's almost it!

In the future, Lu Donglai will be in charge of New Era Group (Huaxia), and Yuan Tianfan will be in charge of Hengchang Holdings.

Lin Zuhui was sitting in the spacious office, and that alone could make him feel very good.He has two life trajectories, which are often used as comparisons, so he is actually very easy to be satisfied.

The reason why his career can continue to advance by leaps and bounds is that his memory is pushing him to do it, not his subjective desire to do it.For example, his memory of 'Iraq's invasion of Kuwait' would cause oil to rise, which led him to have to trade crude oil futures.

Now he has actually become an unfamiliar business concept.But in his previous life, he was "knowledgeable and talented", and he knew a little bit about everything (what he saw and heard at a half-baked level in his previous life), so he has been doing all kinds of business.

Not to mention, once you have money and wealth, you feel that you have a very good chance of winning if you know a little bit about it.Anyway, there are plenty of talents working for you, as long as your direction is right, success is still very sure.

Hengchang Holdings really has a lot of projects to invest in, otherwise how can it be comparable to the world's top [-] 'Hutchison Whampoa'!

……

Sunday, January 1990, 8.

On the Great Wall of the capital, two guests who came all the way from Xiangjiang welcomed Lin Zuhui and Wang Lingyin.Of course, there are many staff behind them, mainly the staff of the 'Lin Zuhui Foundation' and the capital.

Both Lin Zuhui and Wang Lingyin were in a good mood, standing on the Great Wall from time to time overlooking the great mountains and rivers of the motherland, especially Lin Zuhui's mood added a bit of heroism.

If he didn't care about his status, he would still want to shout a few words.

This time, Lin Zuhui and his wife Wang Lingyin came to the capital purely for charity. Wang Lingyin is the wife he is currently marrying, and also the vice president and actual manager of the Lin Zuhui Foundation.

Of course, the direction of the donation is mainly Lin Zuhui's opinion, and Wang Lingyin can also have the right to use part of the funds.

Since its establishment one year ago, the Lin Zuhui Foundation has donated 2 million Hong Kong dollars, of which Hong Kong has donated 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars (the University of Science and Technology has donated 1 million Hong Kong dollars in batches), and Shunde County in the Mainland has donated 0.5 million Hong Kong dollars.

This time in Beijing, the Lin Zuhui Foundation intends to donate 1 million to Huaqing University and 1 million to Beijing University, so the capital side pays more attention to his visit, and even arranges staff to be guides for climbing the Great Wall.

To be honest, donation is certainly a good thing, but Lin Zuhui may not be careless.

As [-] is approaching, he needs to make more connections to lay the foundation for future investments.

If it weren't for Lin Zuhui's media and communication companies, his relationship in the mainland would be far inferior to that of Li Chaoren, who has already donated 5 million to Shantou University.

However, the capital for this struggle still needs to be won, so the 'Lin Zuhui Foundation' will make a large amount of donations in the past two years, conservatively not less than 5 million, mainly for the education of the motherland.During the period, many cooperation agreements will be reached to get more insurance.

"Brother Hui, the Great Wall is really majestic and the scenery is so beautiful!" Wang Lingyin said excitedly.

Lin Zuhui took her hand, pointed to the north and said: "In ancient times, this place was a barrier against alien races. When the Great Wall was built, I don't know how many people dreamed of cutting off the place under our feet... People from overseas came to our Huaxia capital. The Great Wall is Must board!"

Regarding the understanding of the Great Wall, Lin Zuhui certainly knows more than Wang Lingyin, a "native" of Xiangjiang. He is a serious person who grew up in the mainland.

Lin Zuhui looked at the beautiful Wang Lingyin and said, "Do you like the mainland?"

Wang Lingyin nodded and said, "Yes, I like it!"

Seventy percent of her liking is because Lin Zuhui is from Hong Kong from the mainland.

Lin Zuhui is the representative of Hong Kong's new immigrants, none of them. He is the absolute idol of nearly a million new immigrants in Hong Kong.

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "Then come and walk with me more!"

"Um"

The two talked and laughed, and the staff also chatted with each other without being overly restrained.

During the period, Wang Lingyin would always share some imported candies with some mainland children on the Great Wall and chat with them.

Of course, the families of children who can climb the Great Wall in this era are hardly simple.

……

The next day, when Lin Zuhui and his party arrived at Huaqing University, they were immediately infected by the enthusiasm of the school.

Lin Zuhui is also hesitating whether the donation should be named or not!

Li Chaoren donated a lot in his previous life, but he never named it.

You know, the schools that Li Chaoren donated overseas are all named after them.
