Chapter 143 Li Chaoren’s Plan
There were not many people left in the box, but no one wanted to leave at this time, and they had almost tacitly agreed to Li Chaoren's request.
certainly.
Except Zhuang Rongxu.
"Li Sheng, if you have any arrangements, just give them your instructions." Bao Yugang, who was sitting next to him, asked.
Zhuang Rongxu felt that Mr. Bao didn't want to stay here either.
But perhaps because Li Chaoren had helped him when he acquired Wharf, he could not refuse Li Chaoren's request now.
But whether this is the case, Zhuang Rongxu really doesn't know, he is just guessing.
"Yes, Li Sheng. Thank you for your help when I was developing. Now that I, Wang Dehui, need help, just ask, I will definitely help."
"That's right, Brother Li, with our many years of relationship, if you can help in any way, just ask." Luo Yingshi on the side also opened his mouth to speak.
In addition, people such as Shao Liushu, who has a good relationship with Li Chaoren's father-in-law Zhuang Jingyan, and Xu Aizhou's second son Xu Shifen, who is also the brother of future tycoon Xu Shixun, were also present.
They all have a very good relationship with Li Chaoren's father-in-law Zhuang Jingyan, so they stayed.
Maybe many people don't know that Xu Shixun's family is so rich in the future. In fact, 70% of the assets come from his brother Xu Shifen.
Even when Xu Shifen is alive today, he also owns a lot of assets, including 2.32 million shares of Furama Hotel, 6 million shares of Hang Seng Bank, and 696,000 shares of Harbor Enterprises.
The value of these stocks alone is enough to be worth a lot of assets. What about other industries?
His father, Xu Aizhou, had a huge family business during his lifetime, which was split into three and each of his brothers managed different companies.
The eldest son Xu Shibo is in charge of the aviation industry, the second son Xu Shifen is in charge of mining, and Xu Shixun is in charge of real estate.
However, after his eldest brother Xu Shibo died of illness in 1973, he left no descendants, and the property he managed was inherited by his second brother Xu Shifen.
Later, in 1989, the second son Xu Shifen would also pass away, and Xu Shixun would be in charge of the entire Chow Hing Real Estate Group alone.
After the three industries were integrated, the Xu family became the famous super rich in Hong Kong at that time.
At one time, his assets were more than those of Li Zhaoji and others at that time, ranking behind Li Chaoren and the Charter King.
"Thank you for your support. In that case, I will say it bluntly. I plan to let you help me become a shareholder of Shengshi Group."
"No matter how much the other party asks for, as long as there is a chance to get the equity of Shengshi and become a shareholder, then I will take it. I need to gradually remove the rights of the current chairman of Shengshi and take back Shengshi." Li Chaoren stated his purpose bluntly. .
Now he has no choice. Otherwise, it will be difficult for him to regain his prosperity.
And he also believes that almost all the people who are still here are worthy of his trust.
Taking a step back, even if he is not trustworthy, he has no choice. At least there is still a chance to give it a try, and maybe he can succeed.
"Li Sheng, what you mean is that you want us to buy shares in Shengshi on your behalf and become shareholders, so that we can have more say in the board of directors. And when the original stock lifting period comes, as long as you are confident enough, you will transfer all our shares Gather together and drive out the people in the prosperous age?" the chartered ship king asked.
"Yes, that's what I mean. I have already ordered people to absorb circulating shares through the market at that time. At the same time, I also need to have enough things to say in the board of directors of Shengshi Group, so that I can go slowly during the lifting period. Empty the power of the prosperous age."
Everyone probably understood the whole situation when Li Chaoren said this.
This method is indeed good.
But only if the people here can have the opportunity to become shareholders of Shengshi Group.
Otherwise, all this work is in vain.
"Li Sheng, are you sure we have a chance to become shareholders of Shengshi Group?" Xu Shifen asked.
At this time, Li Chaoren shook his head directly: "I'm not sure at all. The Shengshi Group has not approached any of us to talk about buying shares. I really don't know what they are thinking."
"Yes, the listing will be in a few days. Do they really have to wait until tomorrow to decide to introduce shareholders and then go to the Securities Regulatory Bureau to submit shareholder information?"
This matter has really puzzled many wealthy people in Hong Kong. According to normal procedures, before any company announces its listing, it will confirm other shareholders in advance and submit the information to the Securities Regulatory Bureau for review.
In this way, the listing date will not change. If the China Securities Regulatory Bureau issues a date for you to list, but you have not submitted shareholder information for review during the period, if other companies want to be listed during the period, all the procedures must be completed. , this date will be taken away first.
This is a taboo for listing.
But so far, they have not received any information from the shareholders of Shengshi Group, which makes them very puzzled and confused.
"Because of this, I'm even more unsure about what kind of tricks Shengshi Group is playing?" Li Chaoren responded to them seriously.
Zhuang Rongxu was the only one at the scene who was secretly laughing.
Of course they don't understand.
Because there was someone behind Zhuang Rongxu supporting him.
In fact, Queqi has already confirmed the new shareholders, including King Ho Ting-hsien of Australia, the Li family, the established family, the Lei family of Kowloon Jianye, and his Hengsheng company.
A total of four companies have become new shareholders of Shengshi Group. The contract has been signed and the information of the four shareholders has been submitted. However, the Li family has Li Fuzhao, the head of the Far East Association, and as long as he helps support the listing, It's not like he can do whatever he wants.
There is no need to go through the normal process at all.
And as long as Li Fuzhao didn't take the initiative to tell these things, it would be impossible for them to know.
This time Zhuang Rongxu asked Queqi to give 20 million shares to Australian Neptune King He Dingxian, accounting for 10% of the equity.
The Li family has fewer shares, with 18 million shares, accounting for 9% of the equity. The stock prices of the two companies are all traded at the listing price, and each has a capital investment of close to 500 million.
In addition, Zhuang Rongxu of the Lei family of Kowloon Construction Industry gave him 10 million shares, accounting for 5% of the equity.
The price is slightly higher. The cooperation was reached at an integer price of 25 Hong Kong dollars, with a total capital investment of 250 million. This 25% equity alone allowed Zhuang Rongxu to withdraw about 1.2 billion.
In addition, 50 million shares, accounting for 25%, will be put into the market by then, and if nothing else happens, more than one billion in cash will be withdrawn for him.
These stocks account for a total of 49%, and the other 51% will be controlled by him. Shengshi itself holds 34% of the shares to avoid triggering the tender offer.
The other 17% of the shares will be with Dingsheng Company. In this way, Shengshi Group is firmly in his hands. No matter how powerful Li Chaoren is, it is impossible to snatch his group away.
After these stock transactions alone, the cash will be used to continue the development of other industries that Zhuang Rongxu wants to invest in.
It's time for him to start developing the land at the Star Ferry Pier and the Avenue of Stars.
These two pieces of land must be used to build super shopping malls, super commercial buildings, and hotel apartments. It can't be used to build housing, thank you.
"Although I don't know what Shengshi is doing there, since they are going to issue shares, we have a chance. Let's go over tomorrow and take a look at the situation."
"Yes, Li Sheng, I can promise you that as long as I have the opportunity to invest in Shengshi, I will support you and transfer the shares to you during the lifting period."
"I don't have a problem either."
"I agree……."
Soon, everyone in the box agreed to Li Chaoren's request. This was not what Zhuang Rongxu expected. After all, almost everyone who could stay here understood what was going on.
However, Zhuang Rongxu was not stupid enough to express his opinion. He sat at the table and kept drinking water. He regarded himself as an ignorant junior, and he was just a spectator here.
And it happened that Li Chaoren didn't ask him anything. Maybe he really thought that he was just a junior, and maybe he couldn't help him in this matter.
In addition, maybe he really regards himself as one of his own, so there is no need to deliberately say some things, thinking that he will definitely help him.
To be honest, Zhuang Rongxu actually has no objections to Li Chaoren, even though he has seen many negative reports about Li Chaoren in later generations.
Let’s not talk about the authenticity of these reports, but from a businessman’s perspective, Li Chaoren did nothing wrong. He was only maximizing interests and being responsible for the company and all shareholders.
In addition, it is not as bad as the reports say, maybe it is not right, but he is also a philanthropist and has donated a lot to the mainland.
At least in the 1980s, people were willing to donate over 100 million yuan to Shantou University. Want to know how big it was in the 1980s?
It is absolutely an astronomical figure, and he continued to invest money in this university and set up his personal endowment fund. In later generations, he personally invested more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars, which explains everything.
However, in this current world, it is unclear whether Li Chaoren will spend so much money to build Shantou University as he did in history.
After all, in today's world, the Hutchison Whampoa opportunity that belonged to Li Chaoren has been taken away by him, and Li Chaoren is not as rich and prosperous as he was in history.
Therefore, in today's world, it is really difficult to say what will happen in the future. After all, history has been gradually deviated from its direction by him, and everything has become confused.
"That's great. With your help, my chances will be even greater. Thank you for your help." When Li Chaoren saw everyone present agreeing, the smile gradually appeared on his face. Compared with the dark face just now, It's a world of difference.
"Come, I'll toast you all with this cup." Li Chaoren raised the cup in his hand to toast everyone.
"Mr. Shen Bi, thank you again for providing me with funds. Without your support, I would not dare to think about such a thing." Li Chaoren continued to pour a glass of wine and toasted to Shen Bi.
"Li, you're welcome. I also hope you can win back Hutchison again." Shen Bi responded naturally.
At the same time, everyone looked at each other after hearing this. They finally knew where Li Chaoren's confidence came from. It turned out that HSBC was the financial backer.
No wonder Li Chaoren is so heroic.
