Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

In this way, if the other party can take this opportunity to swallow the Jardine Group, even if the British reform fails, its losses can be made up for by the Jardine Group.

Chapter 773

After making up a lot of guesses by himself, the charter king breathed a sigh of relief, looked at his son-in-law, nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Call General Manager Li of Hang Seng later and tell him that if he wants The shares of Hongkong Land and Jardine held by Wharf, as well as the shares of Hongkong Land held by me personally, let him show his sincerity and repurchase them at the previous stock price..."

Two years ago, when the charter king abandoned the ship and docked, his target was the real estate company under Jardine Matheson, Wharf and Landmark, two of the most important subsidiaries of Jardine Mathematics.

Compared with Wharf, Landmark is undoubtedly the most attractive. Landmark occupies the most golden land in Xiangjiang and is the largest land king in Xiangjiang. It is a big piece of fat in everyone's eyes.

Whenever there is an opportunity, no one will miss it.

At the beginning, if Li Chaoren hadn't resold the Wharf shares in his hand to the charter king, it might have become the focus of competition between the two sides.

Unfortunately, time waits for no one.

Although Wharf is not as good as Landmark, it is not bad, especially Wharf can complement the global shipping in the hands of the charter king.

The famous world ship king, if there is no ship, will become an empty title. In comparison, for the charter ship king, Wharf is actually a port, and it is actually more suitable for his strategy of abandoning ships and docking than Landmark.

With the loss of Wharf, Jardine Matheson Group also recognized the crisis and began to repurchase the company's shares aggressively.

Apart from the Jardines Group, the company that holds the most shares in Jardines and Hongkong Land in the Xiangjiang area is undoubtedly Wharf, the most important subsidiary of the Jardines in the past.

If the Jardine shares can be sold at the normal price, Baos can not only continue to maintain the relationship with Yang Chen, but also get a large amount of cash to ease the financial pressure of the current company.

Kill two birds with one stone, it can be said that everyone is happy.

The charter king, who has always done things vigorously and vigorously, after explaining that his son-in-law called Li Guowei to discuss it, he picked up the phone and started calling a group of old friends.

In the Chinese capital circle, there are very few people who can not sell the face of the Chartered Ship King, especially in Xiangjiang, a city that is extremely dependent on imports and exports. Among the bigwigs of Chinese capital, there is almost no one who does not owe favors to the charter king.

With the charter king taking the lead, the others naturally gave a lot of face.

Of course, Jardine's stock price must be indispensable here, and it is now in a situation of plummeting. No one knows whether Jardine can sustain it in the future.

However, everyone is very clear about one thing, that is, judging from the current situation, even if the Jardine Group can escape the catastrophe this time, the market value of its properties will shrink significantly.

In this way, the stocks they hold will definitely continue to fall, and it is impossible to return to the original price, let alone continue to grow.

Those who can work hard in this era are all good people. Selling the shares in their hands not only gives face to the charter king, but also makes Hang Seng owe favors. pressure from the environment.

Killing three birds with one stone, there is almost nothing to consider. All the Chinese bigwigs holding shares in Jardine Group are waiting for the contact from Hang Seng Bank.

The charter king said that they were not afraid of Li Guowei and others deliberately lowering the price. To be honest at this time, Li Guowei and others did not dare to lower the price.

After all, Jardine Matheson and Hongkong Land hold 40.00% of each other's shares. If they dare to suppress the price, they will turn around and sell their shares to Jardine directly. Then this carefully planned plan will come to nothing.

Hang Seng Bank Tower

Although it was late at night, none of Li Guowei and the others went home, and they all held a meeting in the conference room to discuss matters.

After some discussion, Huo Jianxuan suggested: "It's a long night with many dreams. I think we should send someone to the shareholders' homes immediately to sign the share transfer agreement, so as not to have long nights and dreams."

Zheng Haiquan answered in a timely manner: "That's right, if tomorrow that Newbikin Daban Wang realizes our goal, he will definitely repurchase the shares of the Jardine company. This afternoon we have sold the shares of the Jardine company. Shares fell by nearly half.

Tomorrow, we have to buy the tradable stocks in the market as soon as possible, and then quickly raise the stock price. Jardine's previous acquisition of Xiangjiang Electric and Telephone caused the capital chain to dry up.

Next, it is only necessary to raise the stock price of Jardine Matheson to return to normal level, then with the current capital situation of Jardine Matheson, it is not bad to be able to repurchase the shares of Jardine Matheson or one of Landmark.

Even if we can't swallow Jardine in one gulp this time, it will be enough to knock it down from the position of Xiangjiang's four major foreign companies, and then we will slowly nibble away..."

In the matter of dealing with the Jardine Group, none of Zheng Haiquan and others dared to be negligent. As a large consortium that has been in existence for more than a hundred years, Jardine's background is not comparable to that of ordinary Chinese-funded consortiums.

Think about when Jardine was evacuated from the inland, and after suffering heavy losses, it has recovered for decades, and even extended its business to Southeast Asia and other regions.

Under normal circumstances, no one would dare to provoke such an old foreign firm easily.

Let alone move.

However, there is a good saying.

Out to mix, sooner or later have to repay.

The nasty things Jardine did in the early years made Jardine very sensitive to the trend of the inland.

A few years ago, the inland area was reformed and opened up. As soon as there was a slight thought of regaining Xiangjiang, Jardine was frightened and panicked, causing Wharf to be taken away by the charter king.

The same is true now, as soon as the inland area is determined to regain Xiangjiang, Jardine is afraid again, panicking, and begins to think about the plan to move out of Xiangjiang.

In this way, Zheng Haiquan and others were given an excellent opportunity.

Although there is an opportunity, but whether Jardine can be won, to be honest, no one in Zheng Haiquan's group dares to slap their chests.

After all, apart from the major shareholder family behind Jardine, other British-funded consortiums also hold a lot of Jardine Group's shares.

Under the influence of the general environment, although the British-funded consortium is overwhelmed, it does not mean that the British-funded consortium will watch Jardine collapse completely, with no chance of turning over.

The lips are dead and the teeth are cold, Jardine is one of the four major foreign companies, who can guarantee that Yang Chen will not do anything to them after the collapse of Jardine.

We must know that the strength of the Chinese capital is not weak in the current Xiangjiang. Once Jardine falls, if Yang Chen, the new richest man of the Chinese, unites all the Chinese capital to attack the British capital, then with the current complicated situation, the British capital may not be able to resist live.

The best result is that both sides will suffer.

Chapter 774

Jardine Building

Facing the sudden blow, Niu Bijian, the taipan of Jardine Matheson, was very confused and shocked. He felt the same mood as the management of Jardine Mathematics.

Since its establishment, Jardine has encountered few setbacks. Even decades ago, when Jardine's inland industries were all confiscated, it only hurt this savagely grown man.

For a long time, the Jardine Group, which has a British capital background, is like a giant beast that devours people. Most of the time, it is the idea of ​​others. No one has ever dared to easily offend its majesty.

As one of the four major foreign firms in Xiangjiang, Jardine has absolute strength to make all enemies submit.

Even if the Wharf was lost a few years ago, Jardine also cheated the charter king severely in the end, allowing the charter king to gain fame and lose money.

Compared with the loss of Wharf, the crisis facing Jardine this time is undoubtedly the biggest in history. At this time, Jardine seems to be tightly strangled by a big hand.

Hong Kong Stock Exchange, Singapore Stock Exchange, London Stock Exchange, Jardine and many listed companies on the three exchanges were all shorted by a large amount of money within one day.

The stock price of Jardine's listed companies plummeted, causing the entire management of Jardine Group to feel like being hit on the head with a stick.

For a listed company, its stock price not only represents its market value, but also represents the trust of shareholders in the company, so whenever a company's stock price fluctuates sharply, it will attract special attention.
