Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

It would be fine if it was changed to a normal day, but at this time the situation in Xiangjiang is turbulent, and the banking crisis does not know when it will suddenly erupt.

This Xiangjiang Telephone is nothing more than that. If Xiangjiang Lighting is added, then Hang Seng Bank's stored funds will be reduced by half, which is not a good thing.

"Next, you have to conduct a detailed and in-depth understanding of the major listed companies under Jardine Matheson. I don't want me to send the money over, and you don't know how to spend it."

After hearing this, Zheng Haiquan replied with a serious expression: "I understand the boss, don't worry, I will never miss your business."

Seeing this, Yang Chen nodded with a smile. The reason why he bought Hang Seng Bank was to have more people like Zheng Haiquan under his command.

Professional things are handled by professional people.

At that time, he, the big boss, only needs to open his mouth and give orders.

Move your mouth above, break your legs below.

This is the reason.

Chapter 567 Milk International

In addition to the two companies of Heung Kong Electric and Heung Kong Telephone, Yang Chen is also very interested in Milk International Company under Jardine Matheson.

Dairy Milk International was founded in 100, with a history of almost [-] years. In the early days, Dairy Milk International was a joint venture between a Scottish doctor and five Hong Kong businessmen.

In the early days, Dairy Farm International established a pasture in Pok Fu Lam, west of Xiangjiang Island, to raise dairy cows imported from the UK, specializing in the production of fresh milk.

It is not difficult to imagine how luxurious it is to own a ranch in the most commercially prosperous area of ​​Xiangjiang.

Don't say whoever bought a piece of farmland in Xiangjiang, it's much more awesome.

At the beginning of the [-]th century, Milk International began to enter the retail market in Xiangjiang, importing frozen meat to Xiangjiang in the early days, and opened the first retail store in Xiangjiang in the central warehouse.

The large retail market in Xiangjiang was opened by Milk International.

Quick-frozen food, in Xiangjiang, a city with a population of millions, has a huge demand.

Therefore, Milk International established many ice rinks and food storage warehouses in various regions of Xiangjiang in the early days.

Since Milk International started earlier than many companies in Hong Kong, most of its ice rinks and warehouses are located in prosperous areas of Hong Kong.

The amount of land owned by Milk International is unmatched by many real estate developers in Xiangjiang. Even Hongkong Land Company, which is known as the land king of Xiangjiang, only sits firmly on the throne of the No. [-] real estate company because it owns a large area of ​​land in the Central District.

If it were not for Dairy Milk International's dedication to running its own retail stores and its unwillingness to get involved in real estate, it would not be impossible for Dairy Farm to compete with Hongkong Land with the land it occupied in the early days.

However, such a company finally fell into the hands of Jardine Land, and in the end, like Wharf, Mingzhu secretly invested.

Milk International has a large amount of vacant land, but because of the concerns of Jardine's senior management, it has been vacant, causing unnecessary waste.

If it wasn't for Dairy International, which was privatized by Jardine Land early on, a group of Chinese bigwigs would probably have robbed it long ago.

To privatize such a company, Jardine Land is actually very helpless.

In the early [-]s, the actual control of Milk International was held by Sir Zhou Xinian, a Chinese who had a great influence in Hong Kong at that time.

Originally, such a company, normally speaking, no one would think about it.

However, everyone is not guilty, but pregnant is guilty, because the ice factories and warehouses owned by Dairy Farm International in Pokfulam Ranch, Causeway Bay and Kwun Tong occupy a large area.

Jardine Land couldn't help being jealous, Huazi was afraid to move because of Sir Zhou's status, but Jardine didn't care about these things.

At that time, in order to acquire Dairy Milk International, Jardines dispatched Hongkong Land, which has the largest scale and capital, to compete fiercely with Sir Zhou Xinian, who did not accept the acquisition.

Landmark sent a large amount of cash and issued a large number of stocks in exchange for the shares of Dairy Milk International. The two companies fought fiercely with each other.

Because Jardine Land is too strong, the big bosses of Chinese capital, at Sir Zhou's request, took action to resist Jardine Land's attack one after another.

However, a tiger is a tiger after all. Even if there are a few Chinese-owned real estate tycoons to make a move, the fate of Dairy Milk International being acquired by Landmark is still unavoidable.

The battle between Jardine Land and Dairy Milk International was later hailed as a strong fight between Chinese capital and British capital in the early days. Although the Chinese capital lost in the end, it also let the British capital consortia in Xiangjiang see the Chinese capital. Power is growing.

In the blink of an eye, Huazi went from being slaughtered by others in the early days to being able to fight against big British consortiums like Jardine Land. This made the big British consortiums in Xiangjiang realize that the situation in Xiangjiang has changed.

In the 60s and [-]s, Hong Kong's Chinese-funded companies basically had no ability to resist the acquisition of British capital, especially for listed companies, basically as long as they faced acquisitions, they would eventually lose money.

Until the 70s, the inland area began to raise the issue of the ownership of Xiangjiang again. Affected by the situation, British capital began to gather strength, turned from offense to defense, or withdrew from the Xiangjiang market.

Without the suppression of the British consortium, at what period did Chinese capital start to rise rapidly.

In order to expand capital, many Chinese-funded companies began to seek listing, so as to obtain a large amount of liquidity and take the opportunity to develop.

In the early 70s, a large number of Chinese-funded companies were listed on the stock exchange, and a large amount of hot money at the bottom flowed into the hands of large companies.

It is precisely because of the strong rise of Chinese capital that the Jardine Consortium, which has always dominated the habits of Xiangjiang, looks a little unhappy, so it targets Milk International, which it has always wanted.

The big stock market crash in [-] was largely caused by the large-scale listing of Chinese-funded enterprises. The people at the bottom found that buying stocks was more profitable than working, so they invested all their net worth in the stock market.

The hotness of the Xiangjiang stock market has indirectly attracted the capital power of neighboring countries. As a result, a large amount of hot money has flowed into the Xiangjiang stock market, which has pushed the originally normal stock market to an unsustainable level.

In the stock market crash in [-], the biggest losses were not Chinese capital, but the British consortium and the people at the bottom.

Many Chinese-funded companies were listed before the stock market crash, so many Chinese-funded tycoons at that time not only had no big losses, but because of the company's listing, they obtained a large amount of liquidity in advance.

For example, Li Chaoren, Li Sishu, Boss Guo, Zhao Chuanwang, Chartered Shipwang and a series of Chinese-funded bigwigs at that time all rose after the stock market crash in [-].

Especially in the real estate industry, due to the impact of the stock market crash, Xiangjiang housing prices and land prices plummeted to [-]%.

The original 1000 million building, after the stock market crash, may not be bought by the asking price of 100 million.

And the real estate tycoons headed by Li Chaoren, relying on the large amount of funds obtained from the listing, began to buy bottom and wantonly expand their strength.

Because of the massive expansion of Chinese capital, the Jardine Consortium was afraid that it would be attacked. Coupled with the heavy stock market, it was unrealistic to relist Dairy Milk International, so they delayed again and again.

And this procrastination has come to the present in a blink of an eye. If there are no accidents, Dairy Milk International will not be listed again until the problem of Xiangjiang's return in [-] is completely resolved and the stock market becomes popular again.

However, Yang Chen can't wait that long, he wants to take Milk International at the latest next year.

Of course, the premise is that he needs to handle Jardine's sore feet. If he can't handle Jardine's sore feet, it is absolutely impossible for the other party to sell Milk International to him.

What attracted him to Dairy Milk International was not the ice rinks under its banner. It was unavoidable that Xiangjiang real estate would plummet in the future. Apart from Central, there were no other places in Xiangjiang where he could not buy land.

What really attracts Yang Chen to Milk International is its influence in the retail industry in Xiangjiang, especially in the category of frozen food. Carrefour under Yang Chen has always been supplied by Milk International in the category of frozen food.

Milk International has almost monopolized the entire frozen food supply chain in Xiangjiang, but all things related to freezing are basically supplied by Milk International.

Although Jardine did not stop supplying Carrefour because of the conflict between the two, how could he allow others to threaten him all the time in such a matter of being strangled by someone.

Therefore, Yang Chen is determined to win Milk International this time.

Of course, it is obviously impossible to rely on him to negotiate a deal, and Zheng Haiquan can only do it, while he secretly digs a hole for Jardine, slaps it hard, and grabs its foot.
