Silicon Valley
Chapter 428: Influence Exploding Table (Two in One)
Taking advantage of the chaos in the Hong Kong stock market, Kowloon Investment Company frantically absorbed the shares of Hong Kong Telecom and Standard Chartered Bank in the stock market. In just a few days, it successfully absorbed more than 35% of the shares of Standard Chartered Bank and 25% of the shares of Hong Kong Telecom, becoming the largest shareholder of Standard Chartered Bank and the second largest shareholder of Hong Kong Telecom. However, these are quietly absorbed from the stock market, and each account does not exceed 5%, so there is no need to disclose the identity of the shareholders.
Victoria Peak Villa, Golf Course.
Henry played a ball with a dashing swing and was farsighted, and the golf ball went into the hole smoothly. Although Henry doesn't play the sport very much, golf is just a small case for him who is as smart as a demon. How are things going? Henry turned to look at An Ruida, CEO of Kowloon Investment Company, and asked lightly.
Chairman, most of the remaining shares of the two companies are in the hands of the remaining major shareholders. I think it's time for a showdown with them! An Ruida said.
Henry straightened his shoulders, nodded and said, Well, let's showdown then!
An Ruida, I hope that before I leave Hong Kong, Kowloon Investment Company can acquire Standard Chartered Bank and Hong Kong Telecom Company!
Yes!
...
Headquarters of Standard Chartered Bank, UK.
What do you mean by Kowloon Investment Company, they actually took advantage of the fire and wanted to acquire Standard Chartered Bank?! Well, anyway, since they proposed the acquisition, according to the process, we will immediately notify the major shareholders to discuss! Singapore's richest man Qiu Depu and the ship Wang Baoyugang is a major shareholder of Standard Chartered Bank, especially Qiu Depu, who holds more than 15% of the shares and is the largest shareholder of Standard Chartered Bank! A British man in his fifties said solemnly.
Okay, Mr. Robert!
...
Khoo Teck Puat is a banking tycoon who is not only the largest shareholder of Standard Chartered Bank, but also established Maybank himself. Now Maybank has become the largest and most well-known bank in Malaysia!
However, under the Asian financial crisis, Qiu Depu suffered heavy losses and a major economic crisis occurred!
Dad, since someone wants to buy Standard Chartered Bank, let's just sell the shares of Standard Chartered Bank! Maybank is our foundation. Now the economy is under great pressure, and Hong Kong is under attack from Soros at the moment. I am worried that Asian Financial The crisis will continue. If Soros attacks Malaysia again and we don’t have enough funds to protect ourselves, then Maybank may even go bankrupt!” said Khoo Teck Puat’s eldest son, “Dad, we can only The east wall is demolished to make up the west wall!
Hearing this, Qiu Depu couldn't help showing hesitation. Standard Chartered Bank is one of the issuers of Hong Kong dollars and has huge development potential. He and Bao Yugang and others blocked the hostile takeover of Standard Chartered Bank by Lloyds Bank in the United Kingdom in 1986. Together, they finally beat Lloyds Bank with a bid of 1.3 billion pounds in the last few days and obtained a 37% stake in Standard Chartered Bank. , Now telling him to let go is really reluctant!
Hongkong.
Chairman, Qiu Depu doesn't seem to be willing to sell his shares! An Ruida came to Henry to report.
Henry sat on a special red sandalwood chair with his hand on his chin, Don't want to sell? If you don't want to sell, let him sell it! Henry's eyes flashed a gleam, and he instructed An Ruida, No matter what. In what way, in short, you have to force him to submit!
Yes!
Not long after, some people suddenly sold a large amount of Malaysian ringgit coins in the Malaysian stock market. For a time, people were panicked, saying that Soros was going to attack Malaysia again, and the ringgit was going to depreciate again...
The three became tigers, and panic gradually spread. Bank runs in Malaysia are very serious. People who exchange dollars lined up in long queues of tens of meters. Even if they can't exchange dollars, they will ask for money. Instead of putting it in the bank and turning it into waste paper, it's better to buy things!
Qiu Deb's eldest son Qiu Deming rushed into Qiu Deb's office, Dad, if this goes on like this, Maybank will sooner or later be unable to hold on! Qiu Deming shouted.
Qiu Deba shook his head decadently and sighed: The only way to do this now is to sell the shares of Standard Chartered Bank to get funds to solve the current predicament!
Qiu Deming was overjoyed and said loudly, Dad, I will inform the people of Kowloon Investment Company!
Well, let's go!
Within two days, Qiu Depu sold all the shares of Standard Chartered Bank in his hand to Kowloon Investment Company, with another 18% of the shares, worth 2.1 billion US dollars. At the same time, Kowloon Company acquired 7.5% of the shares from the ship king Bao Yugang, and Lloyds Bank is also willing to give up 10% of its shares.
In the end, Kowloon Investment Company obtained a total of 75.5% of the shares of Standard Chartered Bank, achieving absolute control. The very famous Standard Chartered Bank in Hong Kong and even in Asia has been successfully attributed to Henry!
In the acquisition of Hong Kong Telecom, it is much simpler than the acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank.
The parent company of Hong Kong Telecom is a British company called Dadong, which holds 55% of the shares and has an absolute controlling stake in Hong Kong Telecom. However, due to the rise of the Internet, the profits of Hong Kong telecommunications companies have dropped significantly. The British Dadong Company originally planned to sell the Hong Kong Telecom Company, so the two sides hit it off. As long as the money was in place, the Hong Kong Telecom Company would be handed over in minutes!
HKT's market capitalization is high, worth more than $32 billion. Kowloon Investment Company said that it is willing to pay a partial premium and invest a total of 20 billion US dollars to acquire its shares. Soon, I agreed to the convenience.
In more than a week, Standard Chartered Bank and Hong Kong Telecom changed hands, which immediately caused a huge sensation in Hong Kong. When did Jiulong Investment Co. hang up like this? Everyone was stunned.
However, when the official signing day, Hong Kong citizens saw Henry's figure on TV, and this became clear. It turns out that the behind-the-scenes boss of Kowloon Investment Company is the world's richest man, Henry Williams!
For a time, Hong Kong media reported Henry's appearance in Hong Kong one after another.
U.S.
Why is he there?! I hope it doesn't ruin my good deeds! On a quiet night, with a cool breeze, the moonlight shone into the bedroom through the glass. Soros was lying on the bed, frowning tightly. He didn't know what was going on in his heart. Suddenly, he felt uneasy.
At this moment in Hong Kong, the wind is surging!
Li Jiacheng, Zheng Yutong, a large number of rich people and senior officials of the Hong Kong government went to the Peak of Victoria, which is the villa where Henry lived, to visit.
Standard Chartered Bank is one of the largest banks in Hong Kong. It has millions of Hong Kong citizens' depositors and has a huge influence.
The Hong Kong Telecom basically monopolized the communications industry in Hong Kong.
ATV Group and Ming Pao monopolize the media industry in Hong Kong.
Henry's influence on Hong Kong was unprecedentedly strong for a time, and countless people had to raise their noses to survive!
For example, Li Jiacheng and his like, although they are real estate tycoons, but if they provoke Henry, then ATV Group and Ming Pao will make scandals every day, breaking the news about the quality of houses, three people will become tigers, and the company's stock price will definitely plummet! In addition, without the help of bank loans, the company's development speed has been shackled. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, these Hong Kong rich people dare not easily offend Henry.
...
With so many people here, Henry naturally wanted to host a banquet for them. The purpose of their trip was, firstly, to befriend Henry; secondly, to explore the tone, after all, Henry entered so many industries, and everyone was more afraid of him entering their own industry; thirdly, to seek help, Soros attacked Hong Kong, while Henry was in Hong Kong With so many industries, there is no reason to sit back and watch!
The banquet started soon, and everyone was toasting Henry.
Hello, Mr. Williams, nice to meet you. I toast you with this glass of wine.
I did it, you are free!
I also toast Mr. Williams! I've finished this drink, Mr. Williams, please feel free.
...
Henry took a small sip from the red wine glass and smiled faintly. Different status, different drinking. A low-status toast to a high-status person not only has to drink a glass of wine, but also cannot ask the other party to drink up the wine in the glass.
Others are free to drink as much as they want, or even not to drink.
Mr. Williams, this is Director Ke Xiuwen Ke, the Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong Government! Li Jiacheng introduced Henry at this time.
Hello, Chief Ke. Henry greeted with a smile and stretched out his hand.
Haha, Mr. Williams is really the top young talent in the world. It's an honor to see you today! Ke Xiuwen shook hands with Henry with a smile on his face and said.
Major Kosaku praises!
Hehe, Mr. Williams is really humble, Director Ke said, and he deliberately looked at Li Jiacheng, and immediately, Li Jiacheng said to Henry, Mr. Williams, what do you think of the current economic situation in Hong Kong?
Henry laughed secretly in his heart, what else did he look at, he just wanted to bring me in.
Ahem, Henry cleared his throat deliberately, and then said, The current economic situation in Hong Kong is very dangerous, and international speculators with Soros as the core are attacking the Hong Kong stock market.
Yes, that's right. Li Jiacheng stared at Henry and said to Henry in a sincere tone, Mr. Williams, in fact, we came here this time to ask for something!
Li Jiacheng said, The good or bad of Hong Kong's economy is related to our vital interests. Mr. Williams, you can say that you have more industries in Hong Kong than all of us. If Hong Kong's economy is messed up by Soros, then the loss will be the worst. It's also you. So, we hope you can join hands with us to fight against Soros!
Henry took a sip of red wine and pretended to be contemplative. After a while, he raised his head and smiled and said, Of course, for my own interests, I will promise you!
Ke Xiuwen felt a little excited when he heard this. Previously, although the Hong Kong government had received savings support from mainland China, Soros was, after all, a well-known capital tycoon in the country. This economic war is protracted and many unforeseen events are unpredictable. The Hong Kong government has no certainty of winning. But this time with Henry joining, it was like a reassurance.
Mr. Williams, with you joining, Soros has nothing to fear! Ke Xiuwen laughed.
Henry smiled indifferently and did not deny it. In fact, Soros is not Hong Kong's opponent without Henry's intervention. His own intervention is only to speed up Soros' defeat.
When the banquet was about to end, Li Jiacheng asked casually, Mr. Williams, Hong Kong's real estate has been in recession for the past two years.
Henry smiled inwardly, this is clearly testing himself, Hong Kong is so big, if I come to grab your meat, are you really willing?
Seeing Li Jiacheng's slightly nervous expression, Henry shrugged and said with a smile: Okay, I didn't want to get involved in real estate in Hong Kong, after all, Hong Kong is too small. However, thanks to Mr. Li's advice, I think mosquitoes are small. It’s also meat. Moreover, this is also a good opportunity to buy the bottom, of course not to be missed!”
When Li Jiacheng heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his expression suddenly became unnatural. Alas, this is not shooting himself in the foot. No one wants to get involved in real estate, but he invited him...
Mr. Li, walk slowly!
Henry looked at Li Jiacheng's leaving back and couldn't help but laugh.
...
The next day, Henry hadn't said anything yet. The news of Henry joining the Hong Kong government to fight against Soros had spread all over the city!
The morale of Hong Kong citizens was boosted, and the stock market rose sharply after the market opened that day.
With the world's richest man joining us, Soros is a bird!
It is said that Henry Williams has hundreds of billions of dollars to ravage the little crocodile Soros, no problem!
Soros, if you know each other, get out of Hong Kong quickly!
...
The United States, the headquarters of the Quantum Fund, Soros sat at the top of the conference room with a serious face.
Is it true that Henry Williams helped Hong Kong? Soros glanced at everyone gloomily and asked loudly.
A man leaning to his left replied: Mr. Soros, Henry Williams has not made an official statement. However, the wind is blowing. According to our investigation, yesterday, Hong Kong's rich and government officials went to Henry Williams' house. During this period, Henry seemed to agree...
Hearing this, Soros frowned deeply and remained silent.
At this moment, the door of the conference room opened, and a young female secretary hurried in.
Mr. Soros, Henry Williams called you on TV just now! The female secretary whispered to Soros's ear.
Did you record it?
It's recorded, sir! The female secretary took out a videotape from her bag.
Let it go now!
Yes!
The female secretary turned on the TV and video recorder in the conference room, and then put the video tape in.
The picture begins. Henry is sitting on a rocking chair on the open-air balcony with a large umbrella on it to block the sun. The distant view in the video is the beautiful and exquisite Hong Kong.
Hello, Soros, I'm Henry Williams. You must have already received the news... Yes, I have decided to help the Hong Kong government resist your attack. So, I beg you and the international speculators to leave Hong Kong immediately , or you will be at your own risk!
Henry said lazily, however, none of the people in the conference room who were watching the video had a relaxed expression...
