Reborn Capital Tycoon - Chapter 257
Chapter 257 Set up Jardine
After what Boss Chen said, Hong Shihui immediately reacted.
At present, due to the rush to buy shares from both parties, the stock prices of Wharf and Golden Gate Construction have also been raised to very high prices. If the acquisition continues, it will inevitably cost a lot of money.
Instead of this, it is better to stop the acquisition. Anyway, now that the stock prices of the two companies have risen, there are not many tradable shares in the market.
As for those shareholders and retail investors who hold the two shares, those who have not sold yet are nothing more than greedy and want to wait for the stock price to continue to rise, so they are ready to sell.
That is to say, in a short period of time, if the stock prices of the two companies continue to rise, no one will sell their stocks on a large scale even if the stock prices rise higher.
Once the acquisition is stopped and waits for the stock price to fall again, then those greedy people will panic and fear that the stocks of the two companies will fall to the bottom again, so they will sell the stocks that are waiting for a price to the market.
Thinking about this, Hong Shihui hesitated and said: “Then, boss, shall we continue to acquire Hongkong Land Company next, or”
Chen Yi turned his gaze to Yu Min, and said, “Secretary Yu, show Manager Hong the acquisition reports of the six major banks today.”
Yu Min nodded, and handed the report to Hong Shihui.
Hong Shihui took the report and carefully read it.
After reading it, Hong Shihui frowned and said: “Boss, according to the shares we currently hold in Hongkong Land, the number is a bit small. With the remaining working capital, I am afraid it will be difficult to complete the acquisition of Hongkong Land.”
Chen Yi nodded and said: “That’s right, Hongkong Land and Jardine Matheson are the lifeblood of Jardine Matheson. Tomorrow Jardine will definitely raise a large amount of funds to buy back the shares of Hongkong Land and maintain its controlling position in Hongkong.”
“Jardine has a wide network of contacts in Xiangjiang and a deep foundation. If we continue to fight with it, at most we will lose to both sides.”
Hong Shihui nodded in agreement. The reason why they were able to gain the upper hand today was mainly because they caught Jardine by surprise. Now that Jardine has reacted, it is conceivable what the result will be.
This afternoon, Jardine Matheson has mobilized a large amount of funds to repurchase the stocks of Landmark and Jardine Matheson. When there is a buffer time of one night tomorrow morning, then… I can’t believe it.
Chen Yi also noticed the worry on Hong Shihui’s face, but he smiled indifferently: “Tomorrow, I will notify the six major banks to let them continue to buy shares of Landmark and Jardine Matheson in the market.”
”Boss” Hong Shihui said anxiously.
Chen Yi raised his hand and interrupted: “Don’t worry, listen to me first, the six big banks will continue to buy stocks tomorrow, but I will let the six big banks slow down the speed of buying stocks, and strive to raise the price as much as possible.” The stock prices of two companies, Hong Kong Land and Jardine Matheson.”
“And you, when the time comes, secretly sell the stocks acquired from the six major banks to the market at a slightly higher price, and let Jardine repurchase all the stocks in our hands, so that we can get back all the invested funds. “
Hong Shihui looked at Boss Chen’s slightly green face, his eyes were full of surprise and complicated. If he hadn’t heard these words with his own ears, he really couldn’t believe that Boss Chen would have such a treacherous side.
This kind of complicated psychology only lasted for a while, and Hong Shihui fully adapted to it. Turning his head and thinking about it carefully, Boss Chen’s behavior like this is actually conducive to the development of his future career.
As a subordinate, he naturally hopes to follow a boss who can develop his career, only in this way will his future be guaranteed.
Thinking of this, Hong Shihui seriously assured Boss Chen: “Boss, don’t worry, this time I will make Jardine lose his wife and lose his army, and make Jardine, the leader of the four foreign firms, a complete joke.”
“Oh?” Chen Yi was taken aback when he heard the words, and seeing Hong Shihui’s confident look, he couldn’t help asking curiously, “What else did you think of?”
Hong Shihui showed a conspiracy-filled smile at the corner of his mouth, while watching, Yu Min subconsciously moved his steps away from Hong Shihui’s side quietly.
“Boss, I think in a short period of time, Jardine should not be able to find out that we are manipulating this incident, right? Now, boss, you hold a large number of shares in the four major banks (HSBC, Standard Chartered, East Asia, Hang Seng), Jardine If they want to inquire about the news, the four major banks will at most reveal some clues to them, and they will definitely not directly confess you, the boss.”
Chen Yi nodded and said: “That’s right, if the four major banks betray me, then the other shareholders will definitely not let it go. After all, no shareholder will allow me to be betrayed by my own people.”
When Hong Shihui heard this, he felt more confident, and continued: “In this way, if Jardine wants to directly inquire about you, the boss, they can only go to Citibank and Mitsubishi Bank.”
Chen Yi shook his head and said: “Citibank and Mitsubishi Bank signed a non-disclosure agreement with us. It is impossible for them to tell this matter. At most, they will give Jardine some hints like the other banks.”
Hong Shihui said: “Then we can use Jardine to make a time difference before they find us. After this afternoon’s rush to buy, I think many people will start to wait and see tomorrow.”
“At that time, we will let out the news that, boss, you hold a large number of stocks in Hong Kong Land and Jardine Matheson, and you are going to sell them to the six major banks.”
Chen Yi: “…”
Yu Min: “…”
Chen Yi looked confused, what did the other party pay attention to?
“Speaking out about the fact that he holds a large number of stocks, wouldn’t he just call himself out and expose himself to everyone?”
Chen Yi just wanted to complain about Hong Shihui’s idea, but when he saw the serious expression on the other party’s face, he didn’t look crazy or stupid.
So, Boss Chen swallowed back the words decisively, and settled down to think carefully.
Soon, Chen Yi figured out what Hong Shihui was up to.
Chen Yi hesitated and said, “Will this be too risky?”
Being dark under the lights, although people often hear about this kind of thing, but very few people actually do it, and this kind of thing is easy to play with decoupling, which is too dangerous.
Hong Shihui said: “It’s a bit risky, but as long as we cooperate well with a few banks, based on the current situation, we are not afraid that Jardine will not take the bait.”
You must know that Chen Yi holds a total of 30% of the shares of Jardine Matheson and Hongkong Land. It is not ordinary difficult to sell these shares at once.
If Jardine notices something is wrong, it is very likely that they will stop buying back the shares of the two companies at any time, and it will be even more difficult for them to sell.
On the contrary, once Chen Yi jumps out at this time and wants to sell the stocks of the six major banks at a high price, Jardine, who doesn’t know who is behind the scenes, will definitely be anxious, and it will depend on their wishes to make more or less.
