Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

"My second intention is to ask HSBC to help me acquire shares in the South China Morning Post."

Then, Xia Yu said about the second purpose, which is also a business. It is necessary to pay a certain commission for the bank to assist in the acquisition. Presumably Shen Bi will not refuse.

Sure enough, Shen Bi said without hesitation: "No problem, HSBC will definitely be able to do it."

Xia Yu came to send money to HSBC, and Shen Bi naturally accepted it without hesitation. As for the acquisition, will it be difficult?

Shen Bi can confidently say that in Hong Kong, if HSBC is unable to help acquire a company, it is even more difficult for others to do so. This is HSBC's confidence as the super king of Hong Kong Finance.

"Xia Sheng, apart from that, do you have other needs?"

When Shen Bi was in a good mood, seeing Xia Yu seemed to have something to say, he provoked the topic and wanted to know if Xia Yu had any business.

Now that the bait has been given to Shen Bi, it is easy to mention the next thing. With this loan, Shen Bi is also easier to let go.

"One more thing, I heard that HSBC has a 32% stake in the South China Morning Post. I hope to buy it."

After speaking, Xia Yu looked at Shen Bi with bright eyes.

Hearing Xia Yu's words and looking at Xia Yu with a smile on his face, Shen Bi's eyes flashed with a gleam, and his smile slowly faded.

He said how Xia Yu, who is not short of money, would be able to take a good loan. At first, he thought it was a lack of funds for the acquisition, and also wanted to use HSBC's energy to complete the acquisition.

But now it seems that wanting a 32% stake in HSBC is the real goal.

There are too many companies that HSBC holds. Shen Bi can’t remember them all, especially small companies like the South China Morning Post, so he didn’t know that HSBC had 32% of the shares in the South China Morning Post.

But since Xia Yu said so, there must be some, and Xia Yu must have investigated it clearly.

Now that Xia Yu wants to buy the South China Morning Post, HSBC is a hurdle that cannot be overcome. If HSBC does not sell, then even if Xia Yu acquires the remaining 68% of the shares, he still cannot force delisting. There is no way to privatize.

Thinking about it this way, Xia Yu first threw two baits, just to get him to agree to sell him 32% of HSBC's shares.

Shen Bi guessed in his mind that if he didn't agree to sell to Xia Yu, then the first and second business that had been negotiated before would most likely be over.

Thinking of this, Shen Bi smiled in his heart, and Xia Yu had worked hard to successfully acquire the South China Morning Post.

Of course, because Shen Bi did not know the composition of the shares of the South China Morning Post, he did not guess that Xia Yu’s other intention was to use HSBC’s help in the acquisition. This was something that Shen Bi did not expect. In his mind, I thought that Xia Yu asked HSBC for help in the acquisition to get HSBC to sell shares.

But even if he guessed Xia Yu’s plan, Shen Bi didn’t want to knock Xia Yu. There is no need, and the South China Morning Post is not a big company. If he doesn’t believe in buying the South China Morning Post, Jiuding News will There are so many losses, so I cannot offend Xia Yu for this.

Besides, it is useless to hold the South China Morning Post in the hands of HSBC. It is better to sell him personal favors.

Thinking of this, Shen Bi looked at Xia Yu with piercing eyes and said with a smile: "No problem, I promised."

"Thank you Shen Chengquan!"

Xia Yu said gratefully, and then stretched out his hand to Shen Bi. Shen Bi also naturally stretched out his hand and shook Xia Yu's hand to show his intention to cooperate.

"It should be me thanking Xia Sheng for giving HSBC business, haha!"

Shen Bi said with a smile, the sedan chair people carry people, and holding people is the least costly, so naturally it will be better.

"Shen Sheng, my company is still going on, so I won't bother you any more. I will ask Yan Wenhan, the general manager of Jiuding Newspaper Company, to come over later, and please arrange for a subordinate to talk to him."

After speaking, Xia Yu picked up the cup again, drank the tea in the cup, and stood up.

Shen Bi’s time is precious and he doesn’t understand the situation of the South China Morning Post. It is naturally impossible to negotiate with Xia Yu. It is best to leave this kind of matter to their respective subordinates. As the helms of their respective companies, they only need to set the general direction. That's it.

"Xia Sheng, I'll give it to you!"

"Thank you!"

...

After leaving HSBC, Xia Yu immediately returned to Jiuding Newspaper Company, informed Yan Wenhan, who had been waiting for a long time, about the situation of the talks, and then after explaining the matters needing attention in the negotiation, he let Yan Wenhan go to HSBC.

And Xia Yu did not stay long and drove to Jiuding Securities Company. He needed to arrange for someone to buy shares in the South China Morning Post on the stock market.

After coming to Jiuding Securities, amidst the greetings from the employees, Xia Yu found Wang Qi who was analyzing the stock market at the Securities Research Center.

"Boss, you are here!"

Wang Qi talked to the people inside, and hurried to Xia Yu and said respectfully.

Xia Yu nodded lightly, and then went straight to the subject: "Give you a task to buy the shares of the South China Morning Post in the stock market, and then transfer it to Jiuding Newspaper Company. How much money has been spent, Yan Wenhan will call you over. ."

"Ok!"

Wang Qi immediately responded.

After receiving Xia Yu's order, Wang Qi immediately took action.

As for Yan Wenhan, who went to HSBC for negotiations, since the cooperation intention has been set and Xia Yu's order has been obtained, the price can be relaxed and he will directly open a 20% premium to purchase HSBC's stock.

And Shen Bi also valued the relationship with Xia Yu more, so he also said something to his subordinates, which led to the negotiation in the afternoon that was almost peaceful. He agreed to a 20% premium and 32% of the stock was valued at 3.9 million Hong Kong dollars.

The promised loan of 20 million Hong Kong dollars was also released immediately after the negotiation, and HSBC quickly arranged for someone to purchase shares in the hands of other shareholders.

Except for the acquisition of South China Morning Post on the right track, Yan Wenhan did not take a break that night, but completed the acquisition of Tiantian Daily.

After the acquisition of "Tian Tian Daily", Yan Wenhan directly arranged the rectification and takeover of the matter to a subordinate, because he would fly to Singapore the next day to negotiate the acquisition of "Sin Chew Daily".

Three days later, Yan Wenhan returned to the company vigorously. After seeing Xia Yu, the smile on his face couldn't hide.

"Boss, I'm back!"

Yan Wenhan said with a smile.

"Good job! Thank you for your hard work!"

Xia Yu patted Yan Wenhan's hand and said with appreciation, Yan Wenhan's smile became brighter.

"Come on, sit down, and tell me the details."

"Okay, boss, this is the situation..."

After sitting down, Yan Wenhan began to talk, and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Xia Yu nodded repeatedly, the admiration on his face undisguised.

Although Yan Wenhan had told the general situation on the phone, Xia Yu had a deeper understanding after listening to Yan Wenhan's specific details.

Yan Wenhan did live up to his high expectations~www.readwn.com~ After taking over the Nanyang Business Daily, Yan Wenhan quickly invested in the acquisition of Sin Chew Daily.

After a series of fierce confrontations, the wholly-owned acquisition of "Sin Chew Daily" was finally completed at a total cost of 11 million Hong Kong dollars.

"By the way, boss, the editor-in-chief and president of Nanyang Business Daily and Sin Chew Daily have followed me to Xiangjiang. Now I have been arranged to the Kowloon Hotel. When will you have time to meet them?"

After speaking, Yan Wenhan calmed down a bit, thought of the people who followed him, and then asked Xia Yu.

"It just so happens that I have time now, go and see them."

Xia Yu raised his brows and stood up after speaking.

"Okay, you come with me!"

After speaking, Yan Wenhan took Xia Yu to the Kowloon Hotel.
