I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island - Chapter 694

Chapter 694【Easily defeated! 】

In September 1986, there were rumors in the Hong Kong market that Liu wanted to buy China Gas, which made the stockholders lively for a while!

According to the strength of the two, there is no possibility that Liu’s Amyco wants to acquire the China Gas of the Wu family!

China Gas has been developed into a large enterprise with a market value of 7.5 billion Hong Kong dollars through Wu Guangyao’s hands;

But what about Ai Meico?

Although a while ago, Liu used Amerco to pump water in the stock market, and took advantage of the civil turmoil in the Li family and Feng’s family to control Huazhi and Zhongyu in one fell swoop;

But the combined market value of the three companies is less than half of that of China Gas, and their strengths are very different.

But at this time, Liu has already been called a ‘stock sniper’, a stock market catastrophe, and a ‘Liu Ba Claw’. It can be described as a full ‘villain’.

Although this is a real snake swallowing elephant, at this time, Liu’s ‘notorious’ has become a myth by investors;

believes that Liu can turn his hands for the cloud and rain for the rain, and can do everything. Any stock that Liu’s encroachment on will surely rise sharply.

At this time, the Wu family apparently holds only 30% of China Gas, which also leads Liu to believe that there is an opportunity;

Of course, this opportunity is not to really control China Gas. It just raises the stock price and then throws away the shares held by it.

Wu Xianyi came to Wu Guangyao’s office and said: “Father, although we ignore it, there is no loss! But I hate such people, especially stepping on our shoulders to make money!”

The purpose of the Liu family is to raise the stock price, without any loss to the Wu family!

Of course, if the Wu family’s holding is unstable, it is bound to increase its shareholding from the market at a high price, and it will naturally lose a lot;

Wu Guangyao’s original intention was to let him go, and he didn’t want to get to know this ‘little man’!

In his previous life, when Li Zhaoji held China Gas, Da Liu also focused on China Gas;

However, Li Zhaoji’s shareholding was very low at that time, less than 20%;

Because Lee Shau-ki reduced his shares in China Gas and then invested in real estate projects.

After the attack on Liu, Li Zhaoji did not talk to Liu, and then bought Liu’s shares at a high price, so that Liu could succeed, and then Mingjin retreated;

But in fact, it is a fact that Lee Shau Kee’s holdings are unstable, and they can only use 1 billion cash to absorb the original shares.

Liu was also very shrewd, did not take the initiative to find Li Zhaoji, and expected Li Zhaoji to show kindness;

He only needs to wait until China Gas’s stock price rises before selling his own shares!

The final result is that Li’s absorption is high when the stock price rises, and the loss is high;

Liu’s shot after the stock price rose, and made a profit of 60 million Hong Kong dollars in one fell swoop.

Wu Guangyao smiled and said, “What do you want to do?”

Wu Xianyi said: “Naturally, it is done according to market rules! He can catch our China Gas’s attention, and we can also call him the idea of ​​loving Megaco! I heard Uncle Liu said that we hold 15% of the shares of Ai Mega (diluted). Over); or, let’s just privatize him!”

Wu Guangyao thought about it and said, “If you privatize other people’s companies, they can also make high prices and make a fortune!”

Wu Xianying said: “At this time, Amico holds 44% of China Land and China Land holds 40% of China Entertainment! The privatization of Amico is equivalent to winning 3 listed companies! The most important thing is Yes, it can shock the family so that these villains will not dare to trouble us in the future!”

Wu Guangyao also denied: “Don’t be so exaggerated! In this way, I will ask the China Gas Board of Directors to issue a statement announcing that more than 50% of the equity is controlled by the board of directors; then, it is naturally impossible for the kid to buy the company, and the stock price is also difficult to be speculated. high!”

Wu Xianyi was disappointed, he really couldn’t bear to let others bully him!

In fact, people like Liu are not afraid of the high status of the owner, but the owner’s firm control!

As long as the board of directors of China Gas announces that it holds more than 50% of the holding, it will naturally not be speculated on prices.

However, Wu Guangyao said again: “If you don’t privatize Ai Mei Gao, you are afraid that the kid will make a lot of money! But you can do it in the same way as you are, and you can do it! You can scare him and scare him. Row!”

The three companies have no influence on the Wu family at all, so why bother to spend high prices to privatize them.

Soon, the Wu family sold 15% of its shares in Amico to China Gas.

China Gas issued a sudden announcement: China Gas already holds 16% of the shares of Amerco, and will send 2 directors to Amerco; members of the company’s board of directors hold more than 50% of the shares of China Gas, and the equity is very stable!

Hong Kong Island Securities Law stipulates that a director can be dispatched if he owns 8% of the shares.

At the same time, it was suddenly reported that China Gas wanted to fully acquire Amerco.

A crowd of citizens were stunned. This change was too fast. China Gas, which was a prey at the moment, has now become a hunter.

After a series of stock market pumps, Liu owns only 22% of the shares in AMG;

Now that he knew he had kicked the iron plate, he wanted to beg for mercy, even the Wu family members could not reach it.

The two directors sent by China Gas, Amigo, are both the management of China Gas, and they are in line with their own style of being unreasonable on the board of directors.

The rapid rise in the share price of Aimeigo shows that someone is scanning the market frantically, which shocked Liu.

Finally, the CEO of China Gas was finally contacted, and after some unequal treaties, he received a warning.

People in the market immediately started to shake, saying that Liu had kicked the iron plate this time and almost lost the base camp!

As the saying goes, dogs don’t eat shit. Liu just suffered a loss and immediately turned around and picked it-he went hunting for the Bank of East Asia!

The Bank of East Asia is really unstable. Feng, Jian, and Li hold less than 20% of the shares, and they immediately caught a cold behind their backs.

November 1986, Vancouver.

Wu Guangyao, together with Wu Xianchuan, Peter Lynch, and Ma Shimin, met with Joseph, President of Royal Bank of Canada.

The cooperation between the two parties has been basically negotiated for a long time, and now only a procedure will come;

A consortium consisting of the Guangyao Family Office, Hutchison Whampoa, and Wu Xianchuan to purchase 10% of the shares of Royal Bank of Canada;

After the event is completed, the Royal Bank of Canada will match up, and the consortium will acquire Husky Energy.

“Mr. Wu, welcome to invest in Canada. I believe that you will like the Canadian investment environment very much!” Joseph said enthusiastically.

At this time, Canada is still one of the most popular places for overseas investment in Hong Kong, because there are many people here.

Wu Guangyao said with a smile: “Really? If this is the case, I will have more investment!”

Joseph became more enthusiastic when he heard it, and said: “This is natural! We have offered great policy concessions for investment in Hong Kong as early as the 1960s! There are so many Chinese living in Canada!”

Wu Guangyao said: “I have heard of it! After the Husky Energy Company has settled the matter, I hope to carry out some real estate projects!”

Throw the bait, let’s mobilize the enthusiasm of Royal Bank of Canada!

Sure enough, Joseph was immediately full of passion!

One week later, the new consortium bought 55% of Husky Energy for 3.5 billion Hong Kong dollars, which immediately attracted media attention.

Wu Guangyao arranged a team to re-plan the Husky Energy Company, mainly to improve equipment, explore new oil fields, etc.;

At the same time, he called Ma Shimin to his side and said, “Vancouver has just finished the World Expo. There are many sites (land areas) that can be used to develop real estate projects. I plan to leave this to you!”

Ma Shimin asked: “How much does the boss plan to invest?”

Wu Guangyao said: “Invest in a commercial complex model with a value of more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars; after the project is found, it will be jointly developed by Hutchison Whampoa, Cheung Kong Holdings and other companies!”

Actually decided to establish a base in Canada, so naturally I have to invest more!

At the beginning of July 1987, Los Angeles, Guangyao Family Office;

Wu Guangyao, Peter Lynch, and Robertson are talking in secret.

Wu Guangyao said: “I plan to sell a large amount of the equity in the U.S. listed company held by the family office!”

Peter Lynch and Robertson were taken aback, not sure what the boss meant!

Robertson was surprised: “Didn’t the boss say that these funds are held for a long time?”

Wu Guangyao said with a smile: “Yes, it’s a long-term holding! But I have been a little flustered recently. Generally, when this happens, I know that something big has happened! Therefore, I plan to sell a batch of equity as much as possible. After one year of observation, Buy again!”

This. Is this ancient Chinese culture-divination?

The two couldn’t help but guess!

Robertson and Peter Lynch looked at each other, wanting to see from each other how to persuade the boss.

At this time, the US$1 billion invested by Wu Guangyao entered the U.S. stock market, and its value has now doubled by nearly 30 times, reaching more than US$30 billion. If dividends are added, it is far more than 30 times.

Peter Lynch tentatively asked: “How much does the boss think is appropriate to lighten up?”

Wu Guangyao said: “Lighten up your position as much as possible, but don’t cause market panic and attention!”

In the end, the two could only implement Wu Guangyao’s opinions, and did not give too much advice:

First, the boss himself is a legend, and everyone has always admired the boss!

Second, since the boss said just to lighten up the position as much as possible, and only observe for one year, then it is enough to buy again at that time, and there will be at most a small loss in the middle.

The reason why Wu Guangyao only laid out three months in advance, he did not intend to lighten his position too much. Even if he only reduced his position by 50%, he could make a lot of money; after all, these shares are already more than 30 billion US dollars.

At this time, the total market value of the US stock market is more than 2 trillion US dollars, and Wu Guangyao’s capital is not too large.

On October 19, Black Monday appeared as scheduled.

Wu Guangyao was not in a hurry to let Robertson buy immediately, but after two or three days, he started to buy.

Sell and suck, the family office’s market value in the U.S. stock market has reached 40 billion U.S. dollars, accounting for about 1.7% of the total U.S. stock market value

August 1988, Hong Kong.

On the road in Central, luxury cars shuttle constantly. This is definitely the place with the highest density of luxury cars in the world;

On both sides of the road are high-rise buildings one after another. Each building is worth a lot of money. In terms of unit price, it can be ranked third in the world.

Pedestrians on the road hurried, they passed the overpass and quickly disappeared in the sun;

It turned out that these people walked into the interior of buildings through the interface of the overpass.

This has become the most luxurious and largest commercial gathering place in the world;

Dozens of buildings of the Wu family have formed a strong and complete commercial network through pedestrian bridges;

Shopping malls, office buildings, hotels, theaters, entertainment venues, tea houses and other facilities, there are everything and everywhere.

As long as you have money, this is paradise on earth;

As long as you have money, this place will make you linger.

Changshi Building, Guangyao Family Office.

Wu Guangyao sits at the top of the conference room, and on the left and right are a group of investment managers in the family office;

Everyone has a smile on their faces, looking forward to this Wu Guangyao speaking!

Wu Guangyao looked at the Victoria Harbour outside the left window, and his mood was even better.

“From now on, we need to gradually sell off Japanese real estate and securities in 16 months!”

Everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, if it weren’t for Wu Guangyao, they would have been afraid to sell at the beginning of the year;

Because the value of Japanese real estate and securities held by the family office is too high, a full 90 billion US dollars;

Such a huge asset, it’s better to keep it safe!

But since the boss said that it will be shipped in 16 months, everyone will not doubt it, because after working together for so many years, everyone has been very convinced by Wu Guangyao.

Peter Lynch asked: “Then how should these funds be arranged?”

Wu Guangyao thought for a while and said, “It must be exchanged into US dollars. As for investment projects, I have no plans for the time being! If you have any good opinions, you can come up with them! Of course, such a huge amount of funds still needs to be scattered in various locations. Big bank!”

Now, Wu Guangyao is no longer worried about the problem of capital devaluation, because he has invested in too many projects, even if the value of 100 billion US dollars has depreciated, other investments are still appreciating.

However, if gold drops around US$300 per ounce, Wu Guangyao will accumulate a large amount of gold.

Lenovo Building, Tokyo, May 1989.

Wu Guangyao and several key executives of Lenovo Group held a meeting.

In these years, Lenovo Group has not bought and bought on real estate because of the appreciation of the yen;

Lenovo Group uses a large amount of funds to acquire foreign electronics companies and shares, and at the same time builds a large number of factories overseas, and is dedicated to expanding the scale of the electronics field.

This investment method seems to be a loss. After all, other electronics companies in Japan are buying and buying on real estate, making big profits;

But Wu Guangyao knew that once the bubble bursts, these properties would immediately lose profits.

Lenovo Group invests in overseas electronics companies, although there is no effect in the short term;

But in the long run, it will obviously gain more!

“The crazier the outside, the more we should not be tempted! The company’s strategy cannot be changed, which is to continue to work hard in the electronics field! Every penny of our capital must be invested in the electronics field, especially to prepare for globalization! ”

At this time, Lenovo Group has invested a large number of factories in Tokyo, California, London and R&D headquarters in various parts of the world.

Akio Morita said: “President, rest assured! We will strictly implement the policy you set.”

The meeting continued, Wu Guangyao said: “Do you know the GSM digital network?”

Oga Norio said: “Well, it is a communication technology network in Europe, but this technology is not yet perfect due to market, political and other factors!”

Wu Guangyao nodded and said: “I think this technology will eliminate analog networks. Therefore, if our mobile phones want to break through Motorola, we must find another way! From now on, we will contact European telecoms GSM communication network technology is being researched and developed. Once GSM technology is mature, we will be the first to launch GSM mobile phones, so we will replace Motorola in one fell swoop.”

“Don’t believe me, GSM communication technology is confidential, anti-interference, clear sound quality, and stable communication. With these advantages, Motorola’s analog network can only be eliminated.”

Akio Morita hurriedly said: “Chairman, we will set up a team as soon as possible and go to Europe for contact!”

Wu Guangyao nodded and said, “That’s right! Also, the weight and cruising time of mobile phones are still our R&D focus.”

These are all nonsense, but Wu Guangyao still has to bring it up!

In the original history, Motorola stuck to the analog network, but was caught up by Ericsson and Nokia, and finally formed a tripartite situation;

In this life, Wu Guangyao naturally hopes that in the 1990s, the mobile phone field will be a four-legged situation, and Sony will also get a share.
