The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang

October 16th, 1973!

This is the most ordinary day in Xiangjiang. Those who should go to work go to work, those who should go to school go to school, and those who should look for wives are looking for wives.

Anyway, there is no difference between Xiangjiang today and the past.

But today is not ordinary for the reporters of Xiangjiang, because they received the notification from Hang Lung Properties again that in the morning, their company will have a major announcement.

Hang Lung Properties, which has just completed the transaction with Hongkong Land on the Golden Gate Building, can there be any major announcements?

And seeing how Hang Lung Properties is doing so much, this matter must be of great benefit to Hang Lung Properties!

So what is it?

Could it be that Hang Lung Properties has completed another major project transaction?

But can the other party have so much money?

Or did they expand some new development plan?

With such and such speculations in mind, everyone came to the Hang Lung Center and saw Chen Qizong sitting there in high spirits.

During this period of time, Chen Qizong had a very high sense of presence in the eyes of Xiangjiang media, either in the interviews that appeared in this newspaper, or in the speeches that appeared in that newspaper.

Occasionally, I will go on TV and talk about my success!

If you just talk about fame, it has surpassed Chu Huan, who has been a little quiet for a while.

And through Chen Qizong's continuous show during this period, the title of the second person of Xiangjiang's younger generation has been confirmed!

No way, Chu Huan's prestige in Xiangjiang at this time cannot be shaken by anyone.

Chen Qizong sat there with high spirits, looking down at the reporters sitting opposite him, he knew how important what he would announce later would be, and at the same time, what kind of sensation it would cause.

He looked forward to seeing the reactions of those reporters.

When all the Hong Kong media had arrived, Chen Qizong finally announced the reason for their press conference this time!

Due to some special reasons, Hang Lung Properties has decided to terminate the cooperation with Overseas Trust Bank!

One stone caused a thousand waves, and the reporters on the scene were all confused.

Before Hang Lung Properties was able to win Landmark’s Golden Gate Building, although no specific details were disclosed, everyone knew that Hang Lung Properties must not have so much cash at that time, and with the addition of overseas trusts, everyone also knew, Hang Lung Properties must have the support of overseas trusts to have so much cash.

In other words, before, Hang Lung Properties got the help of overseas trusts to achieve the current achievements.

But only a few days after this incident, Hang Lung Properties actually terminated the cooperation with Overseas Trust.

That's not the way to demolish bridges when crossing rivers!

Just when everyone was stunned, Gu Chengxi of True News had already sent out his own question.

Mr. Chen, may I ask if the reason why Hang Lung Properties announced the termination of cooperation with Overseas Trust Bank is because Overseas Trust has become a partner with Jiahu Textile?

What?

Chen Qizong, who was sitting on the stage, was stunned for a moment, he suspected that he had heard it wrong.

Not only Chen Qizong, but even the reporters from other newspapers looked at Gu Chengxi full of doubts at this time, but they all knew that True News had a very good relationship with Chu Huan, so it should be very interesting for Gu Chengxi to say this at this time. May be true.

It's just that everyone didn't get the news before!

Gu Chengxi said: Just this morning, Jiahu Textile and Overseas Trust Bank have signed a five-year cooperation agreement. In the next five years, all financial transactions of Jiahu Textile except Huhua Real Estate will be funded overseas. trust bank account.

Buzz! ! ! ! !

The scene of the press conference suddenly became noisy. No one expected to hear the news about Jiahu Textile and Overseas Trust at the press conference of Hang Lung Properties.

Although Jiahu Textile itself cannot be compared with Hang Lung Real Estate, with the disclosure of denim air spinning technology, Jiahu Textile has become the first echelon of Xiangjiang textile industry. Jiahu Textile has added a lot of valuation.

This is definitely big news!

Seeing that his home court was about to become the scene where Gu Chengxi announced the news for Chu Huan, Chen Qizong immediately said: The termination of the cooperative relationship between Hang Lung Properties and Overseas Trust has nothing to do with the cooperation between Overseas Trust and Jiahu Textile. It was decided entirely out of commercial considerations!

A reporter from Oriental Daily immediately asked: Mr. Chen, if Hang Lung Properties and Overseas Trust terminate the cooperation, how should Hang Lung Properties' previous loans from Overseas Trust be handled?

Although Hang Lung Properties has not announced the number of loans with overseas trusts, everyone understands that it must exist.

Chen Qizong did not hide this matter, and directly said: Loans are also normal business practices, and our loan project with overseas trusts will not expire in two years, so this matter is not in our hands now. Within the scope of consideration!

Hearing what Chen Qizong said, many reporters at the scene immediately came to a conclusion. Isn't Hang Lung Real Estate just crossing the river and tearing down the bridge?

Looking at the expressions of many reporters present, Chen Qizong understood what they were thinking, and said directly: During the cooperation with Overseas Trust, Hang Lung Properties has always strictly abided by the terms of cooperation between both parties. The termination of this cooperation does not lie with Hang Lung Properties!

Is there something inside the matter?

If you are not in Hang Lung Properties, you are naturally in Overseas Trust.

Reporters asked aloud, but Chen Qizong did not give a specific reason.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't get an answer in this regard, so they could only continue to ask new questions.

But I already have the answer in my heart, it must be the cooperation relationship between Overseas Trust and Jiahu Textile.

There had been gossip in Xiangjiang that the relationship between the Chen family and Chu Huan was not very good.

Having lost the cooperative relationship with overseas trusts, will Hang Lung Properties' future development projects have financial problems?

A reporter from Cheng Pao asked.

This is another major event that everyone is concerned about. The current market situation of Xiangjiang Real Estate has shown that if they want to raise funds by selling new shares, they have to wait until the end of the year or the end of the new year. Then there is another way for real estate companies to raise funds It is cooperation with the bank.

But the current situation is that due to the sluggishness of real estate stocks, Xiangjiang's banks have already tightened their loan policies for real estate companies. Before Hang Lung Real Estate was able to get the support of overseas trusts, it was already luck. Now the other party has given up on a bank just like that. support.

This is an operation they cannot understand.

Chen Qizong said proudly: Regarding this point, whether it is everyone sitting here or shareholders of Xiangjiang, you can rest assured that the development of Hang Lung Properties is very smooth, and it is precisely because of this that it has already received the support of a top bank in Xiangjiang. , now we both need to sign the document, I believe everyone will know the name of this bank soon!

boom! ! ! ! !

There were noisy voices again at the scene. Although Chen Qizong did not say the name of the other party, judging from Chen Qizong's expression and the fact that Hang Lung Real Estate was able to give up the cooperation with the overseas trust and instead cooperate with the bank whose name has not yet been announced, it will be possible. Guess, the strength of this bank must be the top of Xiangjiang.

HSBC?

The first thing everyone guessed was this super bank with a century-old history standing in Xiangjiang.

Standard Chartered?

Hang Seng?

East Asia?

Which one is it?

The scene became chaotic, and they asked Chen Qizong which bank he belonged to.

But at this time, Chen Qizong just said proudly that at noon today, at the latest this evening, everyone will be able to know which bank it is!

For Chen Qizong's behavior of selling off, the reporters at the scene expressed their contempt in their hearts!

In this case, why not wait until everything is confirmed before holding this press conference!

Afterwards, Chen Qizong said some questions about the future development direction of Hang Lung Properties, and stopped today's reception!

Many reporters left the scene helplessly.

Soon the content of the press conference was spread among the upper echelons of Xiangjiang. As for ordinary Xiangjiang citizens, there are not so many means of information transmission at this time, and Hang Lung’s reception today does not have the participation of TV stations. Naturally, there is no way for large-scale The word spread.

However, I believe that after the release of the evening papers of major newspapers this afternoon, it will definitely spread throughout Xiangjiang immediately.

Those who knew about it on a small scale fell silent at this moment.

Hang Lung Properties and Overseas Trust's termination of cooperation was originally a blow to Hang Lung Properties' share price, but Chen Qizong also stated that Hang Lung Properties had cooperated with a bank that was stronger than Overseas Trust, which made those who held shares of Hang Lung Properties unaware What should I do.

Is it a sell-off?

Or should we check the situation first?

In the end, everyone decided to take a look at the situation first.

The situation with Overseas Trust is different. According to normal business logic, if Overseas Trust loses Hang Lung as a customer, the stock price will definitely fall, especially if the other party must have loaned to Hang Lung before. What about cash?

But those who know the news also know that Overseas Trust has actually reached a cooperative relationship with Jiahu Textile.

That's nothing to worry about.

Shareholders are more willing to believe in Chu Huan's vision than Hang Lung Properties!

Therefore, the stock price of overseas trusts has not been affected either.

At this time, in the office of the chairman of Overseas Trust, Zhang Mingli learned about the stock price of Overseas Trust from his secretary.

Is the cooperation with Chu Huan a success or failure?

Zhang Mingyi did not expect Hang Lung Properties to hold a press conference in advance, and it was even more unexpected that the other party contacted the new bank so quickly.

But now everything is on the line. Since he chose to cooperate with Chu Huan at the beginning, now he can only bite the bullet and go on!

Zhang Mingyu thought silently in his heart, then looked at the secretary and asked, Are there any large-scale withdrawals of money in various branches?

Now that the plan that Chu Huan told him has not yet been carried out, Zhang Mingyi can only continue to wait passively, but during this waiting process, he also needs to care about his own affairs.

Since the stock price of Overseas Trust has not been affected by this incident, the only thing Zhang Mingli needs to care about now is whether there will be a wave of liquidation at the branch counter.

The secretary replied: No, I have just talked with the managers of various branches on the phone, and there is nothing unusual!

After receiving this answer, Zhang Mingyi finally let go of the big stone in his heart.

There was naturally cooperation between Zhang Mingyi and Chu Huan, but conflicts between them also existed normally.

Before Zhang Mingyi told Chen Zengxi that Chen Qizong and his son were not lying, that is, in the face of interests, there is nothing that cannot be sold.

Cooperation with Hang Lung Properties on such a large project is certainly not up to Zhang Chengzhong, and it is also not up to Zhang Chengzhong to abandon the cooperation between Hang Lung Properties and Overseas Trust and instead cooperate with Chu Huan's Jiahu Textile.

It can be said that since Zhang Chengzhong returned to Xiangjiang before, when Chen Qizong and Michael Keswick talked about the big project unintentionally, Zhang Mingyi has already participated in this matter.

Let's see now, whether Chu Huan can maintain his victory, or Hang Lung can rise strongly!

Now that the treasure has been placed on Chu Huan, Zhang Mingyi naturally hopes that Chu Huan can continue to maintain the invincible results of the past!

In the face of interests, all the bumps and bumps in the past are no longer a thing for Zhang Mingyi!

And now Chu Huan has actually boarded the plane to New York!

Not many people in Xiangjiang knew about this matter.

However, at this time, not many people paid attention to Chu Huan, and everyone's attention was still on Hang Lung Real Estate and the two parties involved in the overseas trust.

Hang Lung Center!

After the press conference, Chen Qizong went straight to Chen Zengxi's office.

Has there been a call from Overseas Trust?

Chen Zengxi's expression was a little gloomy. He already knew the contents of the press conference just before Chen Qizong came back.

Among them, what made Chen Zengxi most angry was that Zhang Mingyi and Chu Huan had cooperated a long time ago. Otherwise, the press conference on his side has not started yet, how could the cooperation be completed there!

But now, as their father and son talked last night, why did Zhang Mingyi do this?

If Hang Lung Real Estate did not acquire the Jinmen Building project, then Chen Zengxi could understand. After all, the situation of Hang Lung Real Estate was not optimistic at that time. The hardest-hit real estate company.

However, with the success of Hang Lung Properties' acquisition of the Golden Gate Building, the stock price of Hang Lung Properties also began to rise, turning from the company that was hit the hardest to the company that benefited the most.

Seeing that Hang Lung Properties is about to soar into the sky again, why does Overseas Trust do this?

Daddy, I have already heard from the secretary on the way here that our company's stock price has not been affected. At the same time, I have also told the other party to keep an eye on the stock market. If there is a large transaction, please notify me immediately!

Chen Qizong preached.

Chen Zengxi nodded. Judging from the current situation, the two sides must be playing a game. Chu Huan and Zhang Mingbi never thought that they would be able to contact a bank with a larger scale than the overseas trust so quickly.

If they hadn't contacted the bank, then today it wasn't Hang Lung Properties that announced the termination of its partnership with Overseas Trust, but Overseas Trust announced that it had terminated its partnership with Hang Lung Properties.

If this is the case, without the support of the bank, Hang Lung Properties will not have any liquidity in their hands after the last liquid funds are spent. This will definitely deal the most brutal blow to Hang Lung Properties.

At that time, the stock price of Hang Lung Properties will fall like a waterfall again, and Chu Huan and Zhang Mingyi can take advantage of this opportunity to conduct a hostile takeover of Hang Lung Properties!

This is the only explanation Chen Zengxi can think of!

Very good, keep an eye on the stock market for me, this time I will make their plan completely fail! Chen Zengxi said viciously after thinking that he had figured everything out.

If you want my Hang Lung Real Estate, you can only walk over my dead body!

Chen Qizong was taken aback by his father's aura, but immediately said: Daddy, don't worry, I believe Chu Huan and the others will not make any moves at this time.

Chen Qizong also understood what Chen Zengxi was thinking. Before, Chu Huan and Zhang Mingyi did not know that they had contacted Standard Chartered Bank, so they came up with a series of plans. Although it has not been announced to the public yet, the cooperation between Hang Lung Properties and Standard Chartered Bank It has been revealed by someone sent by Chen Qizong just now.

I believe that after Chu Huan and Zhang Mingbi learned that we have cooperated with Standard Chartered Bank, they must regret it very much now, especially Zhang Mingbi, who abandoned our Hang Lung Real Estate and chose to cooperate with Chu Huan's Jiahu Textile. Just don't know what to say!

Speaking of this, Chen Qizong showed a complacent expression, and at the same time looked at Chen Zengxi with a look full of admiration. Fortunately, his father saved an extra hand, otherwise, Chu Huan really took advantage of the loophole this time.

Chen Zengxi raised his forehead slightly, and said: It's going to rain, mother wants to get married, since Zhang Mingbi chose a wrong path, don't blame us!

After sighing, Chen Zengxi said to Chen Qizong: You stay at the company, and I will go to Standard Chartered Bank again. If Chu Huan and the others choose to do it at this time, I can directly ask for cash from Standard Chartered Bank!

From Chen Zengxi's point of view, everything has not yet been concluded, Chu Huan is likely to do something at this time, he wants to put an end to any possible accidents!

Chen Qizong nodded and said: Okay, I will keep an eye on the situation here!

Chen Zengxi left Hang Lung Center and went straight to the headquarters of Standard Chartered Bank!

The gossip spread quickly, and the news quickly reached Zhang Mingyi's ears.

Zhang Mingyi, who felt that his choice was not wrong before, was indeed a little nervous at this time.

Because the conditions for him to cooperate with Chu Huan were actually the same as Chen Zengxi and Chen Qizong analyzed before.

His goal has never been to cooperate with Jiahu Textile, but to help Chu Huan get Hang Lung Real Estate, and then not only cooperate with Jiahu Textile, but also cooperate with Hang Lung Real Estate, which is already in the hands of Chu Huan.

As for the detailed operation, it was exactly what Chen Zengxi judged.

With the help of the first cooperation between Overseas Trust and Hang Lung Real Estate, all the working capital of Hang Lung Real Estate was mobilized. When the two parties terminated the cooperation, they used the impact of this news on Hang Lung Real Estate and turned to look at Hang Lung Real Estate that Chu Huan attacked!

And it's not that Zhang Mingyi didn't have his own little tricks. Chen Zengxi and his son only paid attention to the recent stock transactions of Hang Lung Properties, but in fact Zhang Mingyi had already used retail investors to buy some shares of Hang Lung Properties in advance.

I believe that as long as Chu Huan launches an acquisition war against Hang Lung Properties, then the stock price of Hang Lung Properties will definitely soar again at that time. It is a proper high-quality asset!

It's just that there is a sudden rumor that Hang Lung Properties has contacted Standard Chartered Bank. If this news is true, then Hang Lung's stock price will definitely not be affected, and the plan he had previously agreed with Chu Huan will naturally be There is no way to proceed.

Although the shares of Hang Lung Properties in his hands have increased in value a lot, there is still a big gap between Zhang Chengzhong's goal.

So at this moment, Zhang Mingyi couldn't sit still.

First, he called Chu Huan's office in Jiahu Building, but the news he got made Zhang Mingli a little angry.

Sorry, our chairman is not in the company because he has important matters to deal with!

Xu Yi's voice came from the phone.

Zhang Mingbi suppressed the anger in his heart that he couldn't find Chu Huan, and asked, Where did Chu Huan go at such a critical time?

Xu Yi said: Sorry, our chairman didn't tell me!

Zhang Mingbi hung up the phone angrily. He couldn't understand why Chu Huan wasn't in the company at such a critical moment?

After thinking for a while, Zhang Mingyi immediately called his secretary: Prepare the car, go to Fengwu Securities!

Since you can't find Chu Huan, then go find Cao Yunshang!

The secretary immediately prepared the car, and soon Zhang Mingbi came to Fengwu Securities and met Cao Yunshang.

Where did Chu Huan go at such an urgent moment?

After seeing Cao Yunshang, Zhang Mingyi asked directly.

Cao Yunshang sat there, looked at Zhang Mingyi with a smile and said, Why is Zhang Dong so restless!

Zhang Mingbi sat on the sofa and said angrily: Is it because I can't hold my breath? Chu Huan told me well before that I can use this opportunity to hope to get Hang Lung Real Estate, but now, Hang Lung Real Estate actually contacted me. If I had known the result earlier, I should not have agreed to Chu Huan's cooperation.

Cao Yunshang got up with a smile, and then sat across from Zhang Mingyi.

Zhang Dong, Hang Lung Properties was able to get in touch with Standard Chartered Bank in such a short time, do you think this happened today?

Obviously, after you completed the cooperation, Chen Zengxi has been secretly contacting Standard Chartered Bank, that is to say, regardless of whether there is cooperation between us, Chen Zengxi actually has the idea of ​​kicking out overseas trusts.

What Cao Yunshang said made Zhang Mingli speechless, because he knew what Cao Yunshang said was right.

Such a major cooperation cannot be negotiated overnight.

Well, these people don't have a single good thing!

Then we should take advantage of the fact that this news has not been made public, and act immediately. Only in this way can Chen Zengxi be caught off guard, and we can hopefully acquire Hang Lung Real Estate as Chu Huan said!

Zhang Mingli preached angrily.

Cao Yunshang was unmoved, and calmly said: Mr. Zhang, do you really think it's a good time to make a move in this situation? Since Chen Zengxi already knows about the relationship between our two families, there must be some action. Yes, I'm sure that Chen Zengxi must be at Standard Chartered Bank at this time, if we do something at this time, we will inevitably suffer a crazy counterattack from the other party, and then this plan will still fail!

Zhang Mingli said dissatisfiedly: Should we just sit like this now and do nothing?

Cao Yunshang spread his hands, and said: This matter can only be seen now!

Facing Cao Yunshang's attitude, Zhang Mingyi was once again speechless.

Seeing this, Cao Yunshang continued to speak: Mr. Zhang, we smart people don't say dark words. I know that you must have acquired part of the shares of Hang Lung Real Estate secretly. You want to take advantage of Chu Huan's battle to acquire Hang Lung Real Estate. Buy low and sell high and make a fortune.

Zhang Mingyi didn't show any surprise because he was exposed by Cao Yunshang, so naturally he wouldn't feel embarrassed.

How about it?

Cao Yunshang smiled and said, I just want to remind Chairman Zhang that even without Chu Huan's acquisition of Hang Lung Real Estate, the rise in the stock price of Hang Lung Real Estate this time is actually a profit for you, so why bother to sell the last one? Did you earn the dime?

Zhang Mingyi snorted coldly, and said, It's easy to say, anyway, you don't have any losses, but I completely fell out with Chen Zengxi!

Cao Yunshang said calmly: Mr. Zhang, you are being a little unreasonable. Just now, the two of us have reached a consensus. Even without our participation, Chen Zengxi will find a way to kick your overseas trust out of the game. , Now you can buy the shares of Hang Lung Properties in advance and make a fortune, this is already our credit.

I let you tell all the good things. Now that you have stocks in your hands, you might as well have cash! Zhang Mingyi still said angrily.

Cao Yunshang asked aloud, I don't know how many Hang Lung Properties shares Dong Zhang owns now?

Zhang Mingli said directly: 30 million!

Cao Yunshang gave a thumbs up, Zhang Dong is indeed a big deal. He lent 180 million Hong Kong dollars to Hang Lung Real Estate before, and now he bought more than 10 million shares of Hang Lung Real Estate. Amazing!

It's thirty million! Zhang Mingli corrected.

Cao Yunshang smiled: Mr. Zhang, it's already this time, so don't talk about it anymore. I know you're talking about the current stock price of Hang Lung Real Estate, but when you bought it, there must not have been so much!

Zhang Mingyi snorted coldly and said, So what?

Cao Yunshang smiled and said, Brother Huan told me that if Zhang Dong wants to sell the shares of Hang Lung Real Estate in his hand, since we have already cooperated with Zhang Dong, we are willing to pay the money!

A gleam of joy flashed across Zhang Mingyi's eyes. It was more appropriate to have cash than stocks at this time, but he thought of Chu Huan's character.

You haven't made a move until now. Could it be that you are thinking about the shares of Hang Lung Properties in my hand?

Cao Yunshang spread his hands and said: Mr. Zhang really misunderstood our good intentions. You know the current situation. It is impossible to buy Hang Lung Real Estate again at this time. In this case, this The takeover battle is definitely not going to happen. To put it bluntly, the stocks in your hand are actually useless to us.

The reason why we still propose the acquisition is entirely because you and I are now in a cooperative relationship, and Brother Huan also talked about the previous matter in Jiahu Textile, which caused Zhang Dong to suffer some losses. We just want to take advantage of this It's just a chance to make up for Zhang Dong's loss!

Zhang Mingyu said with a cold snort: Do you still have plans to continue to run Hang Lung Real Estate?

It is impossible to buy Hang Lung now, but Zhang Mingyi thinks that Chu Huan will not just give up, so buying the shares of Hang Lung Real Estate in his hand at this time is actually a plan for the future!

Well, Zhang Mingyi thinks so.

Cao Yunshang said indifferently: It depends on what Zhang Dong thinks!

Okay, I'll sell it! Zhang Mingyi didn't hesitate for too long on this matter!

Okay, I'll have someone draft the document now and notify the lawyer to be there! Cao Yunshang said calmly.

Zhang Mingyi just snorted coldly.

Soon, Luo Decheng rushed to the scene, and of course Zhang Mingbi's lawyer also arrived. After carefully looking at the document, Zhang Mingbi signed his name on the document.

Congratulations to Zhang Dong for making a fortune again! Cao Yunshang laughed.

Zhang Mingli snorted and said nothing.

Also, the next chapter is at 11 am~·
