Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 755: The enemy's attack becomes an assist

Next, there are two main tasks surrounding Heung Kong Electric. One is to raise the stock price and increase costs; the other is to show weakness and lure the enemy to go deeper. In short, it is to turn Liu Luanxiong's blitzkrieg into HSBC and ours. War of attrition. Tang Huan finally gave clear instructions.

If this acquisition is really brought into the stage of comprehensive acquisition and consumption after the shareholding ratio of 35%, I'm afraid it will be a lose-lose ending. Ma Shimin's implication is that for a moment, It is not wise to have more money than banks, especially HSBC.

Tang Huan smiled disapprovingly of the harsh words, Little people and snakes like Liu Luanxiong can be shameless, but we are not good at acting. I have to pay a huge amount of consumption, at most it can be regarded as a second California high-speed rail investment, and I can still afford it. Besides, it is not known whether this war of attrition can continue until the end of the year.

In fact, in the Qinhe department, only Zhou Mi knew Tang Huan's true attitude towards HSBC. Others only thought that their boss's dislike for HSBC stemmed from multiple conflicts of commercial interests.

Therefore, these British executives, including Niu Bijian and Ma Shimin, feel that it is only natural that Qinhe does not let HSBC take every inch of land, as long as it does not destroy the other party.

I have to say that Tang Huan, who is proficient in pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, has superb acting skills. For a long time, he has maintained an image of an innocent person who has to strike after the other party hits the door.

The Jardine family is the biggest victim of this disguise. Although the Chinese media often hype that Tang Huan ate Jardine and avenged the founder of Jardine William Jardine for instigating the Opium War more than 100 years ago, which greatly boosted the Chinese people’s ambition. However, the mainstream view, including that of the United Kingdom, is that Jardine tried to prevent Tang Huan's business power from developing and growing in Xiangjiang, so as not to threaten its own vested interests.

In particular, after Tang Huan completed the acquisition of Jardine, he reused a lot of Jardine's old courtiers, and Jardine quickly immersed himself in the happiness of the bright future brought by Tang Huan as the boss. The owner, the Keswick family, also showed that Tang Huan, a businessman, was not seeking revenge on the British for any national righteousness, but was completely driven by profit.

Now that Tang Huan was going to have an upright confrontation with HSBC, he didn't let others think of anything other than disputes over commercial interests.

Seeing Tang Huan's arrogance, what else could Ma Shimin do besides being in awe of the boss's unfathomable energy?

Seeing that this subordinate no longer objected, Tang Huan joked with a smile, You never thought that Xiangjiang Electric might have its share price skyrocketed in this acquisition battle, and then surpass Xiangjiang Telecom in one fell swoop, becoming the market capitalization of Xiangjiang Electric. No. 1 company, you also enjoy the taste of the supreme class?

Although it unexpectedly suffered a franchise crisis in the second half of last year, it also let the public know in disguise how many practical things Heungkong Telecom has done, how smoothly it has developed, and how strong its value has been after receiving Tang Huan's technical support.

Currently, Heung Kong Telecom has 3.1 million telephone subscribers, with 0.41 telephone lines and 0.54 telephone sets per capita. The penetration rate ranks third in the world after New York, USA and Tokyo, Japan.

If these achievements are still false, then re-planning the original slightly messy dialing rules, launching various preferential packages, and even canceling the urban telephone charges for the first time in the world, it will definitely be on the bright side and everyone can feel it It is a move of convenience and benefit to the people.

In addition, Heung Kong Telecom has also made remarkable achievements in new services such as mobile phones, dial-up Internet access, caller ID, and telephone consultation, as well as overseas investment.

Of course, Heung Kong Telecom will definitely not make a profit at a loss. Due to the adoption of Tang Huan's new digital technology, the data throughput of the equipment has been greatly improved, thus effectively controlling costs and further increasing the room for huge profits.

After entering 1987, the Xiangjiang stock market became more and more bullish, and Xiangjiang Telecom, which performed well, was naturally favored by investors.

The market value has soared all the way, approaching 7 billion U.S. dollars, becoming the first brother among the listed companies in Hongkong Telecom, Niu Bijian, the head of Hongkong Telecom, almost walking with his nostrils in the sky.

Now that Tang Huan used this gimmick to stimulate himself, Ma Shimin couldn't help feeling a little excited, rubbed his hands and muttered, This is not good, after all, this name is false, once the limelight passes, it will return to its original form.

It doesn't matter if you experience it. Tang Huan smiled slightly, Qinhe's industry continues to develop outwards, how can its achievements stop at the level of a company with the highest market value in the Xiangjiang stock market. The responsibility on the shoulders of you executives The burden will only get heavier.

Of course I let my boss dictate. Ma Shimin hastily expressed his loyalty.

After making this joke, Tang Huan frowned and said: Compared to Liu Luanxiong's scheming and HSBC's sophisticated methods, we are not inferior in capital operations at all. I am not worried, but how to confuse the other party to keep taking the bait? , it is not so easy to handle, and the two aspects of capital wrestling and luring the enemy to go deep complement each other.

Ma Shimin also followed suit, Boss, you are the richest man in the United States, with strong financial resources. It is recognized by the world. It is really difficult to operate now if you want to show weakness.

The two of them were thinking hard when Weng Jingjing walked in with a stack of folders, and interjected with a smile: You men only focus on the big picture, but you didn't notice that there have been newspapers that have started badmouthing the richest man a long time ago. Mister.

Ma Shimin glanced at Weng Jingjing, who showed dimples when she smiled, and put out specially collected newspapers and magazines, thinking that it's no wonder the big boss valued this little lover who was born in the show business, and specially sent him to Xiangjiang University The ability to train a master of law to act according to circumstances is really not comparable to those vases.

Financial Times? Tang Huan couldn't help laughing after glancing at it for the first time, there are already many banks in Xiangjiang, but there are even more newspapers. How did I hear such a famous newspaper name for the first time? Said. This reminds me of one thing, after many Hong Kong businessmen have gone to mainland China, the company names printed on their business cards often start with prefixes such as Universal and Universal.

Don't underestimate people. Although this Financial Times was only established this year, the boss is a powerful rookie in the newspaper industry. He spared no expense to hire the former editor-in-chief of Wen Wei Po as the president, and the former editor-in-chief of Financial Daily Huang Yanglie As the editor-in-chief, we must take advantage of the current bull market to turn all shareholders into our own readers.

While explaining, Weng Jingjing picked out several newspapers and magazines, placed them in front of Tang Huan, and introduced: Daily Daily, Fresh Weekly, Youth Magazine...these publications are all published in This year it is under the same owner.

Wonderful, is a new newspaper tycoon about to emerge from Xiangjiang? Tang Huan frowned, and asked his younger brother with great interest, Who is this person?

You must also know this person. Weng Jingjing smiled mischievously, I heard that since he got face-hugged last time, he never went to DreamWorks again.

Really? Tang Huan agreed casually absent-mindedly, his attention was obviously attracted by the Financial Times in front of him.

I saw the above analysis:

...

Previously, in order to invest in new projects, Xiangjiang Electric kept cashing out by reducing its shareholding, indicating that it did not receive the full support of the parent company. This is not surprising. The relationship between Qinhe Group and HSBC Bank is in dire straits. Naturally, the industry has lost an extremely important source of loans, and thus the capital chain is not well-off.

On the other hand, Tang Huan, the boss of Qinhe Group, has operated a huge project costing more than 30 billion U.S. dollars in California, the California High Speed ​​Rail. Therefore, Mr. Richest Man’s capital chain must be very tight, and it is difficult to support Xiangjiang. .

Therefore, although it is more difficult to acquire Xiangjiang Electric Lamp than when Jardine took Xiangjiang Electric Light from Qinhe, Qinhe's coping ability has also declined.

If a sister company like Heung Kong Telecom intends to help, there will inevitably be loopholes in itself, and Liu Luanxiong, who is said to have unlimited withdrawal rights, will never let go of new sniper targets.

...

The analysis is really brilliant! Mr. Longyan Dayue's richest man, taking pictures of this Financial Times, kept saying good, which seemed to speak to his heart.

After a while, Tang Huan remembered to ask, You haven't said yet, who is the real boss of this Financial Times?

Huang Yulang, the founder of Yulang International. Weng Jingjing replied angrily.

It turned out to be him. Tang Huan suddenly realized and nodded, and then asked suspiciously, Even if Huang Yulang hates me from the bottom of his heart, there is no need to take risks and enter the Hong Kong Newspaper industry across fields, right? Besides, why is he Are you starting to wave the flag for Liu Luanxiong?

You don't know, Huang Yulang, Liu Luanxiong, and Lin Jianyue are all from Chaozhou. Weng Jingjing said with a smile.

So that's how it is. Tang Huan suddenly realized again, It's still you who are careful. Not to mention, these smart and smart people get together, and they really can't be underestimated.

Weng Jingjing continued: Actually, Huang Yulang devoted himself to Xiangjiang Newspaper, which is not a complete cross-field development. It's just that after failing before, he had to concentrate on comics. But now the bull market, Yulang International's The listing, as well as the example of fellow Liu Luanxiong, brought him new opportunities to display his ambitions.

It turns out that although Huang Yulang is doing well in the comics industry, his real dream is to become the second Jin Yong. He supported Ming Pao by writing martial arts with a unique pen, and he has a wonderful pen for drawing comics .

This kind of feeling is also easy to understand. Due to the vulgar industry atmosphere of the works, the comics at that time were difficult to be elegant.

As early as the mid-1970s, when Huang Yulang was only in his 20s, he had achieved a little success in his career, so he founded the Life News which was mainly based on comics and supplemented by recreational articles, but the final result of this newspaper was still a pity .

Of course, the young and vigorous Huang Yulang refused to give up. After that, he continued to run newspapers such as Far East Economic Daily, Shengbao, and Xiangjiang Daily, but they still ran one after another. Fortunately, he had that comic pen. Losing money continuously, he was beaten back to his original shape and lived on the streets.

Regarding Huang Yulang's repeated failures in the development of the newspaper industry, Heung Kong Media generally believes: Huang Yulang only has a primary school education and no experience in newspaper editing, so failure is a matter of course.

This analysis is not unreasonable. It's not that you can't get things done without culture, but that certain fields naturally require higher professionalism.

When the future of Hong Kong became clear and the Hong Kong stock market began to boom, Huang Yulang successfully promoted Yulang International to the stock market, which brought about a sharp increase in his wealth, allowing him to regain his ambition to develop the newspaper industry.

You know, when the Asian branch of the American Wall Street Journal published an article introducing Huang Yulang, he was called a billionaire prodigy who painted a rainbow. After receiving this evaluation, Huang Yulang was overjoyed immediately, and he was so swollen that he didn't know where he was for a while. Then he proclaimed himself Yulang Emperor to his employees. The whole group is Yulang Empire, even the printing factory is crowned It's called the Imperial Printing House. ⑧± Miao (.*) pen ⑧± Pavilion ⑧±, o

Fellow Liu Luanxiong's method of drawing blood from the stock market inspired Huang Yulang. At the beginning of Yulang International's listing, he owned 75% of the shares, so he had a huge room for manipulation in rights issue-fund-raising-expenses.

The big bull in the Xiangjiang stock market made this simple money-making model once again bring Huang Yulang great success. With cash and a thicker waist, he began to make big purchases—first, he spent 77 million Hong Kong dollars to obtain 70% of the equity of Tiantian Newspaper and the entire equity of Tiantian Color Printing, and took over the recreational comprehensive newspaper Daily Daily; Then it bought Fresh Weekly at a price of 25.2 million Hong Kong dollars, and Youth Magazine at a price of 9.3 million Hong Kong dollars.

What is even more exaggerated is that after Huang Yulang founded the Financial Times, he traveled across the ocean and went to Malaysia, where he spent 70 million Hong Kong dollars to acquire the second largest newspaper of the Hu family, Sin Chew Daily. It seems that he is going to become a powerful media king like Hu Xian.

If these acquisitions are not real enough, then we will spend 13 million Hong Kong dollars to take down the Chai Wan Kangmin Industrial Center as the so-called Imperial Printing Factory, and spend 70 million Hong Kong dollars from the chairman of Sing Tao Press Group, Hu Xian, Buying the 10-storey King's Road News Building as the administrative and production headquarters of Yulang Group is enough to show how Huang Yulang is now killing the world.

Seeing Weng Jingjing's brilliant record against Huang Yulang like a treasure, Tang Huan couldn't help laughing and said: Why do you pay so much attention to this Emperor Yulang? Isn't it because of the joy of seeing Liexin and the heart of love?

Seeing that the big boss was flirting with the little lover again, Ma Shimin quickly picked up his glass to pour water.

Weng Jingjing smiled slightly, with a dangerous gleam in her eyes, He dares to target you, of course I will do my intelligence work well.
