Chapter 422

    Taking advantage of the chaos in Hong Kong stock market, Jiulong investment company madly absorbed shares of Hongkong Telecom and Standard Chartered Bank. In just a few days, it has successfully absorbed more than 35% of the shares of Standard Chartered Bank and 25% of the shares of Hongkong Telecom, becoming the largest shareholder of Standard Chartered Bank and the second largest shareholder of Hongkong Telecom. However, these are quietly absorbed from the stock market, each account no more than 5%, so there is no need to disclose the identity of shareholders.


    Taiping peak villa, golf course.


    Henry chic swing hit a ball, far sighted, golf smoothly into the hole. Although Henry doesn''t play this sport very much, golf is just a small case for him who is as clever as a demon“ How are things going? " Henry turned his head to look at an Ruida, CEO of Jiulong investment company, and asked faintly.


    "Madam President, most of the remaining shares of the two companies are in the hands of the other major shareholders. I think it''s time to have a showdown with them formally!" He said.


    Henry straightened his shoulders, nodded and said, "well, let''s have a showdown."


    "Amrita, I hope that before I leave Hong Kong, Jiulong investment company can acquire Standard Chartered Bank and Hong Kong Telecom Company!"


    "Yes


    ……


    Standard Chartered Bank headquarters, UK.


    "What''s the meaning of Jiulong investment company? They want to take advantage of the fire and buy Standard Chartered Bank?! Well, anyway, since they have proposed the acquisition, then according to the process, we will immediately inform the major shareholders to negotiate! Singapore tycoon Qiu debar and boatman Bao Yugang are major shareholders of Standard Chartered Bank, especially Qiu debar, who holds more than 15% of the shares and is the largest shareholder of Standard Chartered Bank! " A British man in his fifties said in a low voice.


    "Yes, Mr. Robert!"


    ……


    He is not only the largest shareholder of Standard Chartered Bank, but also the founder of Malaya bank. Today, the Bank of Malaya has become the largest and most famous bank in Malaysia!


    However, under the Asian financial crisis, Qiu deba suffered a heavy loss, resulting in a major economic crisis!


    "Dad, since someone wants to buy Standard Chartered Bank, let''s sell the shares of Standard Chartered Bank! The Bank of Malaya is our foundation. Now the economy is under great pressure, and Hong Kong is being attacked by Soros. I am worried that the Asian financial crisis will continue. If Soros attacks Malaysia again and we don''t have enough money to protect ourselves, then the Bank of Malaya may even go bankrupt! " Qiu deba''s eldest son said, "Dad, we can only tear down the east wall to make up the west wall!"


    When he heard this, he could not help showing his hesitation. Standard Chartered Bank is one of the issuing banks of Hong Kong dollar and has great development potential. In 1986, he and Bao Yugang blocked Lloyd''s Bank''s hostile takeover of Standard Chartered Bank. They joined hands and finally defeated Lloyd''s Bank with a bid of 1.3 billion pounds in the last few days to obtain 37% of the shares of Standard Chartered Bank. Now they are reluctant to let him go!


    Hong Kong.


    "Chairman, it seems that Qiu debar is not willing to sell the shares!" Andreda came to Henry to report.


    Henry was sitting on a special red sandalwood chair with his chin in his hand? If you don''t want to sell it, let him sell it! " Henry''s eyes flashed a trace of light, and told Enright, "no matter what way, in short, you have to force him to submit!"


    "Yes


    It wasn''t long before someone suddenly sold a lot of Malaysian ringgit on the stock market of Malaysia. For a moment, people were in a panic. It was said that Soros was going to attack Malaysia again and the ringgit was going to depreciate


    The panic spread gradually. The bank run in Malaysia is very serious. People who exchange US dollars form a line of tens of meters. Even if they can''t exchange US dollars, they will withdraw the money they want. It''s better to buy something than to put it in the bank and turn it into waste paper!


    Qiu Deming, Qiu deba''s eldest son, rushed into Qiu deba''s office. "Dad, if you go on like this, the Bank of Malaya will not be able to hold on sooner or later." Cried Qiu Deming.


    Qiu deba shook his head decadent, sighed: "today''s plan, only by selling the shares of Standard Chartered Bank, can we get the capital to solve the current predicament!"


    Qiu Deming was overjoyed and said in a loud voice, "Dad, I''m going to inform the people of Kowloon investment company!"


    "Well, go!"


    Within two days, Qiu debar sold all his shares in Standard Chartered Bank to Kowloon investment company, with another 18% of the shares, worth $2.1 billion. Meanwhile, Kowloon company acquired 7.5% of the shares from Bao Yugang, the ship king, and Lloyds Bank was willing to give up 10% of its shares.


    In the end, Jiulong investment company obtained 75.5% of the shares of Standard Chartered Bank, and reached absolute control. Hong Kong and even Asia''s very famous Standard Chartered Bank smoothly under Henry''s name!


    In terms of acquiring Hongkong Telecom, it is much simpler than acquiring Standard Chartered Bank.


    Hong Kong Telecom''s parent company is a British company called "Dadong", which holds 55% of the shares and has absolute control over Hong Kong Telecom. However, due to the rise of the Internet, Hong Kong Telecom''s profits have declined significantly. The company originally intended to sell Hong Kong Telecom, so the two sides hit it off. As long as the money is in place, they will give Hong Kong Telecom their hands every minute!


    The market value of HKT is very high, with a value of over US $32 billion. Kowloon investment company said it was willing to pay a partial premium to buy its shares for a total of $20 billion. Soon, I agreed with you.


    In more than a week, Standard Chartered Bank and Hongkong Telecom changed hands one after another, which immediately caused a huge sensation in Hong Kong. When did the Kowloon investment company hang up like this? People were shocked.


    However, on the day of signing the contract, the people of Hong Kong saw Henry on TV. It turns out that the boss behind the scenes of Kowloon investment company is Henry Williams, the richest man in the world!


    For a while, Hong Kong media reported that Henry appeared in Hong Kong.


    U.S.A.


    "Why is he there?"?! I hope it doesn''t spoil my good deed! " Quiet night, cool breeze, moonlight through the glass into the bedroom. Soros was lying on the bed, frowning. He didn''t know what happened in his heart. Suddenly, he was worried.


    At this moment, Hong Kong is full of ups and downs!


    Li Jiacheng, Zheng Yutong, a large number of rich people and senior officials of the Hong Kong government went to Taiping peak, the villa where Henry lived, to visit.


    Standard Chartered Bank is one of the largest banks in Hong Kong, with millions of Hong Kong people''s depositors and huge influence.


    Hong Kong Telecom basically monopolizes the communication industry in Hong Kong.


    ATV group and Ming Pao monopolized the media industry in Hong Kong.


    Henry''s influence on Hong Kong was unprecedentedly strong. Countless people had to raise their noses to survive!


    For example, although Li Jiacheng and others are real estate tycoons, if they offend Henry, then ATV group and Ming Pao will make scandals every day and expose the housing quality problems. If three people become tigers, the company''s share price will definitely plummet! In addition, without the help of bank loans, the company''s development speed is restricted. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, these rich people in Hong Kong dare not offend Henry easily.


    ……


    With so many people coming, Henry naturally gave them a banquet. The purpose of their trip is to make friends with Henry; After all, many people are afraid that Henry will enter his own industry; Third, ask for help. Soros attacks Hong Kong, while Henry owns so many industries in Hong Kong. There''s no reason to sit back and ignore him!


    The party soon began, and everyone toasted Henry.


    "Hello, Mr. Williams. Nice to meet you. Here''s to you."


    "I''ll do it, whatever you want!"


    "Here''s to Mr. Williams, too! I''ll finish the drink, Mr. Williams. Please help yourself


    “……”


    Henry took a small sip from his red wine glass with a faint smile. Different status, different drinking. The low status toasts to the high status toasts, not only they have to drink a glass of wine, but also can not ask the other party to drink all the wine in the glass.


    Others are free to drink as much as they want, or even not.


    "Mr. Williams, this is the financial secretary of the Hong Kong government, Mr. John Cohen, Mr. Cohen!" Li Jiacheng then introduced Henry.


    "Hello, chief Henry said with a smiling hand.


    "Ha ha, Mr. Williams is the most talented young man in the world. It''s a great honor to meet you today." He said, shaking hands with Henry with a smile on his face.


    "Mr. Cox, it''s a great compliment!"


    "Ha ha, Mr. Williams is so modest," said Mr. Cox. After that, he looked at Li Jiacheng. Immediately, Li Jiacheng said to Henry, "Mr. Williams, what do you think of the current economic situation of Hong Kong?"


    Henry was laughing in his heart. What else was he looking at? He just wanted to pull me in.


    "Cough," Henry said after clearing his throat deliberately, "the current economic situation in Hong Kong is very dangerous. 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 him in a sincere tone, "Mr. Williams, actually, we are here to ask for something!"


    Li Jiacheng said, "the good and bad of Hong Kong''s economy is related to our vital interests. Mr. Williams, you have more industries in Hong Kong than all of us. If the economy of Hong Kong is messed up by Soros, you will suffer the most. So, we hope you can join hands with us to fight against Soros! "


    Henry took a sip of red wine and pretended to be thoughtful. After a while, he raised his head and said with a smile, "of course, for my own benefit, I will promise you!"


    When Ke Xiuwen heard this, he felt a little excited. The Chinese mainland has signs of danger appearing everywhere, but Hongkong has been supported by the savings from the mainland of China, but Soros is a country''s most famous capital predator. This economic war is protracted and many changes are unpredictable. The Hong Kong government is not sure that it will win. But this time with Henry''s joining, it''s like taking a reassurance.


    "Mr. Williams, with you in, Soros is not afraid at all!" Ke Xiuwen burst out laughing.


    Henry gave a cool smile and did not deny it. In fact, without Henry''s presence, Soros is not an opponent of Hong Kong. His presence only speeds up Soros''s defeat.


    At the end of the banquet, Li Jiacheng pretended to be casual and asked, "Mr. Williams, Hong Kong''s real estate has been in a slump for the past two years. It''s an opportunity to make a bottom of the market."


    Henry laughed in his heart. He was obviously testing himself. Hong Kong is so big. If I come to rob you of your meat, would you really like it?


    Looking at Li Jiacheng with a slightly nervous expression, Henry shrugged and said with a smile, "well, I didn''t want to set foot in real estate in Hong Kong. After all, Hong Kong is too small. However, thanks to Mr. Li''s advice, I think mosquitoes are meat even though they are small. What''s more, it''s also a good opportunity for bottom hunting. Of course, we can''t miss it! "


    When Li Jiacheng heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his expression became unnatural. Alas, he didn''t lift a stone and hit himself on the foot. No one else wanted to set foot in real estate, but he invited him


    "Mr. Li, take your time!"


    Henry couldn''t help laughing when he looked at Li Jiacheng''s back.


    ……


    The next day, Henry didn''t say anything. The news that Henry joined the Hong Kong government to fight against Soros in the major newspapers was full of wind and rain!


    Hong Kong people''s morale was greatly boosted. After the opening of the day, the stock market rose rapidly.


    "With the richest man in the world joining us, Soros is a bird!"


    "It''s said that Henry Williams has hundreds of billions of dollars to ravage the little crocodile Soros, that''s nothing to say!"


    "Soros, if you know the truth, get out of Hong Kong!"


    “……”


    In the United States, Soros sat at the top of the conference room with a serious face.


    "Is it true that Henry Williams helped Hong Kong?" Soros gave the crowd a gloomy glance and asked aloud.


    A man leaning to his left replied, "Mr. Soros, Henry Williams has not made a formal statement. However, the wind is coming from the wind cave. According to our survey, yesterday, Hong Kong''s rich went to Henry Williams'' home with government officials. In the meantime, Henry seems to have agreed... "


    Soros frowned and said nothing.


    At this time, the door of the conference room opened, and a young female secretary came in in a hurry.


    "Mr. Soros, Henry Williams just yelled at you on TV!" The female secretary was attached to Soros''s ear, whispering.


    "Is there a video?"


    "Yes, sir!" The secretary took a video out of her bag.


    "Let it go now!"


    "Yes


    The secretary turned on the TV and the video in the meeting room, and then put in the video.


    The scene begins. Henry sits on a rocking chair on an open balcony with a big umbrella on it to block the sun. In the video, there is a magnificent view of Hong Kong.


    "Hello, Soros. I''m Henry Williams. You must have received the news long ago... Yes, I have decided to help the Hong Kong government resist your attack. Therefore, I beg you and the international speculators to leave Hong Kong immediately, otherwise they will bear the consequences! "


    Henry said lazily. However, none of the people watching the video in the conference room looked relaxed
