Chapter 50 Jardine Land Taipan New Bijian’s reaction!



Today's Hong Kong stock market has not yet ended, and there is widespread news in the market that Chinese tycoon Li Jiacheng wants to acquire Wharf.

So much so that when Newbijian drove from the company and passed a parking lot, he saw reports in this regard.

When Newbikin came to Victoria Peak Villa.

Newbikin saw Henry Keswick waiting for him.

"Newbikin, what's going on?" Henry Keswick asked.

"Sir Keswick, look."

In Newburgh, I handed those newspapers to Henry Keswick. Henry Keswick took a look and was almost shocked.

The front page now is a photo of Li Jiacheng wearing a suit and looking high-spirited, as well as information about Li Jiacheng, chairman of Changchun Industrial Group.

Needless to say, there are now rumors in the market that Li Jiacheng intends to acquire Wharf.

"Now the share price of Wharf has soared to 45 yuan per share. As the major shareholder of Wharf, Jardine Land only holds % of the shares. I am afraid that Li Jiacheng is now the largest shareholder of Wharf. However, he has not yet Officially announced to the media." Niubijian said from the side.

For Henry Keswick and Newbikin, Wharf was too important to Jardine Matheson Land, and they could not afford to lose their controlling stake.

Prior to this, Jardine Matheson Land only had 10% of Wharf shares and was already the largest shareholder. All other shares were held by retail investors and small investors. If they were targeted by other wealthy people, they would be targeted if they were not careful. Eat.

"How much capital can Jardine Land use? Tomorrow we will also compete with Li Jiacheng for Wharf stocks."

"I'm afraid I don't have enough funds."

"What should we do?" Henry asked.

"We can only sell Jardine Matheson or Land's subsidiaries in exchange for some funds to buy Wharf shares."

Jardine and Land are both Xiangjiang Ocean Bank. They are big and their working capital cannot be used indiscriminately. This will definitely affect the development of Jardine's parent company and its subsidiaries.

In order to maintain Wharf's holding position, it can only sell some subsidiaries that it considers unimportant.

"Which company shares are to be sold?" Henry Keswick asked again.

To Henry Keswick, the subsidiaries were like the palms and backs of his hands, and they were all flesh. He would definitely not sell them if he had no choice but to do so.

Newbijian thought for a while and said: "Sir Keswick, many of our listed subsidiaries can sell some shares."

Because Jardine Matheson Group has Jardine Matheson Securities Company, it can start selling some shares of listed stock markets through Jardine Matheson Securities Company, and then obtain as much funds as possible to buy Wharf stocks.

"Your suggestion is good, that's all."

Henry Keswick knew that this was the only way to keep Wharf now, and then he would need to obtain more funds to buy Wharf stocks.

Unable to use more liquidity, it was forced to sell some shares of its listed subsidiaries.

Besides.

Henry Keswick thought of a way.

That is to let Shen Bian, the senior manager of Huifeng Bank, act as a middleman and let Li Jiacheng voluntarily give up the acquisition of Wharf.

However, no matter what, Henry Keswick knew that he must acquire as many Wharf shares as possible before he could have greater confidence.

Li family.

Li Jiacheng just came back by car.

After Zhuang Yueming came over and took Li Jiacheng's briefcase and suit, the landline phone in the living room rang.

Zhuang Yueming went over and picked up the answer.

"Sir, it's Qianzhao calling."

"Lao Zhou, what's the matter?"

"Mr. Li, something big has happened. Now there are rumors in the outside market that you intend to acquire Wharf."

Zhou Qianzhao also just found out.

Now, due to the soaring share price of Wharf, there are rumors in the market that Li Jiacheng, chairman of Changchun Industrial Group, intends to acquire Wharf.

Zhou Qianzhao knows this best.

At first, Li Jiacheng might have had that idea.

However, in the afternoon, they had stopped purchasing Wharf stocks, and the Li family did not have so much funds to use.

"Who spread the news?"

Li Jiacheng had that idea, and he knew it was impossible to do it.

"I don't know, it's been spread in newspapers and magazines outside now."

If it were just a few newspapers and periodicals, he could just call people to complain.

Now many newspapers and periodicals in Hong Kong are reporting like this.

Li Jiacheng could only smile bitterly.

"Then there's nothing we can do."

Li Jiacheng hung up the phone.

Zhuang Yueming asked: "Sir, how are you doing?"

"Qianzhao said that there are rumors outside that I want to acquire Wharf. Now Qianzhao only buys about 5% of Wharf's shares. Wharf's stock price is already very high. Our Li family has limited funds and has stopped buying in the afternoon."

"Sir, who do you think is acquiring Wharf?" Zhuang Yueming is very smart.

Obviously, she guessed that someone in the market was indeed eyeing Wharf, but it was not her husband. Her husband didn't have much money right now.

"It should be Mr. Bao."

Li Jiacheng could only think of Bao Yugang.

In his opinion, among the wealthy Chinese in Hong Kong, only the other party has that ability.

Zhuang Yueming thought for a moment and said, "It could be Mr. Bao, or it could be someone else."

"Forget it, Wharf is fishing in troubled waters now. In the stock market tomorrow, I ask Qianzhao to sell all the stocks, and we can make a profit of more than 100 million."

Zhuang Yueming felt it was a pity.

She also knows that the current strength of the Li family and Changchun Industrial Group is about this.

Although it just swallowed up the US-owned Yonggao Company last year, what can be done?

Bao Yugang also just returned from the Prince's Building, the headquarters of Universal Group.

When he just came back, his second son-in-law Wu Guangzhen came over and said, "Father, there are rumors that Li Jiacheng intends to acquire Wharf."

Li Jiacheng wants to acquire Wharf?

Bao Yugang was also a little surprised.

Now Bao Yugang has felt that the global shipping industry is beginning to decline.

As a global shipping king, Bao Yugang must avoid risks.

After all, the risk at sea is too great, so the only option is to move to land.

At this time, Bao Yugang had not really decided to abandon the boat and land, but he already had thoughts in this regard.

If you sell those big ships and get funds, you will definitely invest in land.

If Bao Yugang has such large sums of money, then what industry should he invest in?

Now, when he heard Wu Guangzhen mentioning Wharf, he felt that it was right to acquire Wharf. Who would have thought that Li Jiacheng would take the lead.

"I know Li Jiacheng, I'm afraid he doesn't have that strength." Bao Yugang said.

Speaking of which, Bao Yugang is still much stronger than Li Jiacheng now. He is also a shareholder of Huifeng Bank, and his relationship with Shen Bi is more familiar than Li Jiacheng.

"Father, if it's not Li Jiacheng, then who is it? Now Wharf's stock price has soared several times."

"I can't guess, let's take a look first. However, we must not let Li Jiacheng eat the Wharf."

"Father, what do you mean?"

"If we abandon ship and land, Wharf is a very good place for us to stay."
