The charter king shook his head and said, "I'm afraid he, the general manager, can't decide this matter on his own."

Although before the ship disaster came, the charter king had sold many of the ships of his Universal company, but this does not mean that his Universal company is no longer affected by the ship disaster.

Now that he is here, Universal's problems are not a problem.

But here comes the problem, he is sick now.

Moreover, it is not a minor illness or disaster.

It is a fatal disease.

Now whether it is Universal or Wharf, the two most important companies in his hands owe a lot of debt to the bank.

He is alive, so with his reputation and contacts accumulated over decades, this loan is naturally not a big deal.

But once he lets go, the so-called people leave the tea to cool down, no matter how small the problem is, it may become a big problem.

Therefore, the Chartered Ship King was very excited about it.

Chapter 772

The attack by Zheng Haiquan and others did not cause too much harm to Bao's. At most, the stock price fell and the company lost a little market value.

Yang Chen has been walking along the way, the charter king has supported him a lot in the early days, and the favor is there, no matter how big or small, it is impossible for Zheng Haiquan and others to really deal ruthless hands, and they have grasped the measure quite well.

It not only makes Bao feel pain, but also does not hurt his muscles and bones, resulting in an irreversible situation for both parties.

Seeing his father-in-law shaking his head, Wu Zhengguang hesitated for a moment, and said, "Dad, I don't think that General Manager Li decided this on his own."

"Oh?" The charter king looked up at his son-in-law, "What do you think of this matter?"

Wu Zhengguang said in a deep voice: "Dad, this matter is now very obvious. For some reason, Ah Chen is determined to take advantage of the news of the British government's defeat this time to bring down Jardine, and even kill Jardine." And the group uprooted from Xiangjiang.

Judging from the actions of Hang Seng Bank and Ah Chen's companies, it seems that Ah Chen has already anticipated everything and made sufficient preparations beforehand, so that in such a short period of time, we were all caught off guard..."

To be honest, Wu Zhengguang was actually surprised at Yang Chen's generous move to Xiang Yihe.

He participated in the whole battle of Wharf back then, and he knew best how much effort his father-in-law had to take to win Wharf.

If it weren't for the help of Shen Dapan from HSBC, it would definitely not be an easy task for the Bao family to seize the Wharf warehouse.

This is true for Wharf, not to mention Jardine Matheson and Landmark, the foundation of Jardine Matheson Group.

There are so many companies in the Yihe family, and their background is so profound that ordinary consortiums cannot compare.

However, it was such a tycoon who was stunned by a punch in just one afternoon.

As the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer.

Fortunately, Bao Shi is not an ordinary person, so he has a few catties of meat.

From Yang Chen's rise all the way, everything he did basically followed a principle, that is, if you don't make a move, it's fine, and if you make a move, it's a thunderous blow.

This time, it was obviously the same as before.

To be honest, the Chartered Ship King is facing this matter now, and it is also a headache.

Wu Zhengguang is naturally aware of his father-in-law's troubles, so he expressed his own thoughts, "Dad, what we are thinking about now is not why Ah Chen turned his face, but how we should take sides."

"Achen and Yihe, who are we going to support next, this matter is related to the relationship between us and Achen."

"Chen didn't tell us clearly before, maybe because he was afraid of leaking the news, but now Hang Seng has made a move. The series of actions this afternoon is a reminder."

The charter king frowned upon hearing this.

As the world's famous ship king, the charter king naturally has his own pride. If it were the same as before, he probably wouldn't think about other things and just go straight to it.

Now, this person can't accept his old age.

The back wave of the Yangtze River pushes the front wave, and the front wave dies on the beach.

He had to think about the daughters and sons-in-law of the family in the future, so as to prevent the Bao family from declining after a hundred years.

Human affection is a thing that pays attention to the presence of people and human affection. If people are not there, then people will leave the tea.

The charter king asked his son-in-law seriously: "Do you think Chen is sure this time?"

Wu Zhengguang: "I dare not say [-]%, but there is still great hope, especially this afternoon, until now, neither HSBC nor Standard Chartered has any response.

And I also got the news that this afternoon, people from Jardine Matheson Group applied for loans from two banks, but both HSBC and Standard Chartered directly refused.

At the same time, news came from Singapore and London that the Jardine Group's companies listed on the stock exchanges of the two places were all shorted by a mysterious force at the same time..."

Hearing this, the charter king couldn't help being surprised and said, "Ah Chen also did it in Singapore and London?"

Wu Zhengguang said with a look of admiration: "Yes, Dad, news came from the Singapore and London stock markets this afternoon that the listed companies under the Jardine Group were shorted by large stocks at the same time, and their stock prices plummeted no more than Xiangjiang's. how much difference.

Especially in London, Chen made a lot of money in the London stock market before, and now he has bought the largest military enterprise in the UK. I heard that the British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher personally invited Chen to Downing Street as a guest.

Afterwards, Ah Chen announced an investment plan of tens of billions of dollars, bringing together several British dukes and aristocrats to set up a joint venture company to inject capital into the privatization reform company launched by the British government. "

"Tens of billions of dollars in investment plan" the charter king muttered to himself, then his face changed, and he said angrily: "That brat was able to spend so much money all at once, obviously he made a fortune in the London stock market.

Before, you, Uncle Huo, and others invested 3000 million US dollars each. It’s been so long, and we haven’t seen him give us rebates. Now it seems that that guy must have done it on purpose. "

Wasn't it intentional?

If Yang Chen had returned the money earned from the London stock market to Chartered Ship King and others earlier, then with several times the income, Chartered Ship Wang and others would definitely not have financial pressure due to the turmoil in the Xiangjiang stock market this time.

For 3000 million US dollars, even if the interest is tripled, the principal plus the triple interest will add up to 3000 million US dollars.

With the current exchange rate between Hong Kong dollars and U.S. dollars, the income is almost one billion. With this amount of funds, what difficulties can the charter king and others not overcome?

"Father, I'm afraid you have wronged Ah Chen on this point. Based on what I know about him, if the money he earned in London could be transferred out, I'm afraid he would have taken the money and left."

"Uh..." The Chartered Ship King couldn't help being dumbfounded.

After being reminded by his son-in-law, the chartering king suddenly came to his senses, thinking of the difficulty behind this matter, such a large amount of cash flowed out, not to mention the British Empire, even Lao Mei, one of the two strongest, would not be able to do it with his eyes open. watch.

In particular, the economic development of the UK has stagnated, and it is in the midst of the great changes of the century. At this time, what the UK lacks most is funds, and the investment plan of tens of billions of dollars. Rather than saying that Yang Chen is optimistic about the next reform of the UK, it is better to say that it is being rejected by the UK. The government is forcing investment and forcing the other party to support British reforms.

Thinking of this, the stalk in Charter King's heart disappeared immediately, and now he finally figured out why Yang Chen dared to attack the Jardine Group blatantly.

This is not only because the other party has strong capital, but at the same time, I am afraid that he is a little bit confident. He has confirmed that the British government will not interfere with his actions outside the UK.

After all, no one knows whether the UK's subsequent reforms will be successful, and whether the tens of billions of dollars of investment will be in vain in the end.

This point undoubtedly made Yang Chen take a huge risk.
