Chapter 52 Shen Bi personally mediates with Mr. Li!
Victoria Peak Villa.
Henry Keswick's house.
At 16:00 in the afternoon, the Hong Kong stock market ended, and Newbijian hurried from the Land Building to see Henry Keswick.
Henry Keswick was already at home.
"Newbijian, how is the stock market today?" Henry Keswick looked at Newbijian who was led in by the butler and asked.
"Sir Keswick, according to what you said, we sold some shares of the listed subsidiary to obtain some funds. We entered the stock market today and bought a total of more than 300 million Wharf stocks in the morning and afternoon, with an average price of 58 Yuan per share, so it cost more than 1 million Hong Kong dollars."
More than 1 million Hong Kong dollars?
Henry Keswick felt a little distressed after hearing this.
Last year, Wharf's stock price had been floating around 300 yuan. After all, 2700 million shares of Wharf stock were worth million Hong Kong dollars.
Now it has doubled many times.
"According to our traders, many investors are now in a wait-and-see mode. They may not be willing to sell even if they have stocks in their hands. Obviously, those investors want to wait for Wharf's stock price to rise higher to make a move. Our opponents , I should have bought a lot of stocks today.”
"You are talking about that Chinese businessman Li Jiacheng!"
Now Henry Keswick is really angry. On the one hand, he needs to pay a higher price to buy Wharf stocks.
On the one hand, he was worried that Li Jiacheng would really swallow up Wharf.
It seems that we need to find someone to mediate.
He had thought about it yesterday.
Shen Yan.
Shen Yi is now the chairman of Huifeng Bank, Taipan, the God of Wealth in Hong Kong.
I am afraid that no one in Xiangjiang would not give Shen Bi face.
Henry Keswick knew that Shen Yi and Li Jiacheng should be relatively familiar with each other. He also knew that Shen Yi and the previous Huifeng Bank chief executive, Sanders, had been supporting the development of Chinese capital in Xiangjiang.
In addition to Li Jiacheng and Bao Yugang, many potential Chinese tycoons have received financial support from Huifeng Bank.
This does not mean that Shen Bian will support Li Jiacheng to swallow up Wharf.
"It seems that we need to meet Shen Bi."
Newbijian thought so when he heard it.
"If Mr. Shen is willing to come forward, of course it would be best."
Because Shen Yi also lives in the Peak Villa.
The area around Victoria Peak Villa is very large, but if you take a car, it’s not very far.
Henry Keswick asked the butler to prepare a heavy gift and personally took Newbijian to the Shen Yan family villa.
. . .
Victoria Peak Villa.
Shen family.
Since meeting Yang Ming at Happy Valley Racecourse that day, Shen Bi has become more and more interested in the young man Yang Ming.
He didn't mention his desire to cooperate with Yang Ming.
Because he wanted to continue to know more about this young man.
As for the Wharf stock market's stock price starting to skyrocket last week, he has noticed it.
However, he didn't pay too much attention.
What he didn't expect was that he actually heard the news that Li Jiacheng wanted to eat Wharf.
At this point, Shen Bi became interested.
Before that, as far as the wealthy Chinese in Xiangjiang were concerned, he believed that the one with the greatest potential, apart from Bao Yugang, who had been cooperating with Huifeng Bank, was Li Jiacheng.
Now there is one more.
Yang Ming of Imperial Group.
He really didn't expect that Li Jiacheng actually wanted to swallow up Wharf.
Now he was watching the show like an outsider.
If Li Jiacheng can really swallow up Wharf, then of course he is optimistic about Li Jiacheng.
If not, that's okay, it has nothing to do with him anyway.
Just at this time.
The Shen family's housekeeper came in and said, "Sir, Mr. Henry Keswick and Mr. Newbikin from Jardine Matheson are here."
Henry Keswick?
The head and major shareholder of Jardine Matheson?
Newbikin?
Now Taipan in Jardine, Land, and Wharf?
"I gonna go see."
Shen Bi came out and saw Henry Keswick and Newbijian.
Regarding the Keswick family, Yihe Taipan New Bijian, Shen Bi is relatively clear.
Henry Keswick is the fourth generation head of this family.
Now Jardine is also the first of the four major foreign companies in Hong Kong, and it is also one of the faces of British capital in Hong Kong.
"Sir Keswick, Mr. Newbigan, why do you have time to come and see me?"
"Mr. Shen, I have something to ask of you."
Shen Bi took Henry Keswick and Newbijian to the courtyard of the villa.
It's quiet here.
You can also see the high-rise buildings in Central District and Victoria Harbor at any time.
Shen Bi knew that Henry Keswick and Newbikin were not here to see the scenery.
"Henry, tell me what's going on?"
"Mr. Shen, you should know that Wharf's stock price has suddenly soared. Last week it was reported that Li Jiacheng, the Chinese tycoon and chairman of Changchun Industrial Group, is going to take over Wharf."
It turned out that this was what I came for.
Shen Bi nodded and said, "I've heard of it."
"Wharf Matheson is very important to Jardine Matheson and Land. I don't want others to take it away. I hope you will come forward and let Li Jiacheng give up Wharf on his own initiative."
Let Li Jiacheng give up Wharf on his own initiative?
Shen Bi did not expect that Henry Keswick would bring this up.
Henry Keswick said much more.
Now Shen Bi is supporting the Chinese, and Shen Bi also knows that Yihe is the face of British capital.
Henry Keswick said that, of course he wanted to give Henry Keswick face.
"Sir Keswick, no problem. Let me talk to Mr. Li for you. If he is willing to give up, then of course it is best. If he is unwilling to give up the Wharf, then I have no choice."
in history.
Li Jiacheng once held 18% of Wharf's shares. Finally, with Shen Bi's mediation, Li Jiacheng was finally forced to give up Wharf because of his lack of strength and limited funds.
When it was Bao Yugang's turn, even if Henry Keswick approached Shen Bi and the two parties sat down and talked for a long time, Bao Yugang would naturally not give up Wharf like Li Jiacheng did.
It's because from the beginning, Li Jiacheng's strength was far inferior to Bao Yugang.
"Thank you Mr. Shen."
When they heard Shen Yi agreed, Henry Keswick and Newbijian breathed a sigh of relief.
When the two left first.
Shen Bi thought for a while outside. With his status, he would not go to see Li Jiacheng in person.
Instead, he made a landline call to Li Jiacheng's villa.
Deep Water Bay mid-level villa.
Li family.
"Hello, I am Shen Bi from Huifeng Bank."
When Zhuang Yueming received the call and learned that it was Shen Bi, he was also very surprised.
Zhuang Yueming knew Shen Bi very early.
Moreover, Li Jiacheng was introduced to Shen Bi only later.
In addition to being Li Jiacheng's wife, Zhuang Yueming is also the eldest lady of the banker family.
The dealer is the king of watches in Xiangjiang, and her father is very well-known in Xiangjiang. It is precisely because of that that she has known Shen Bi for a long time.
"Mr. Shen, I am Yueming."
"Mrs. Li, is Mr. Li at home?"
"My husband hasn't come back yet. Does Mr. Shen have anything to do with him?"
"It's like this. Henry Keswick from Yihe came to me just now and hoped that Mr. Li would give up Wharf."
Do you hope Mr. Li will give up Wharf?
What exactly is going on?
By the time Zhuang Yueming reacted, she had already guessed that it must be Henry Keswick of Yihe, Niubijian, and even Shen Bi. They thought it was Li Jiacheng who wanted to swallow up Wharf.
Only now did Henry Keswick ask Shen Bi to come forward.
Zhuang Yueming knew that her husband had sold all the Wharf stocks last week. What was the relationship between Wharf and his husband?
