Video Game Empire - Chapter 682
Why did Li Xuan dare to make a promise to Peterson, the other party has the decision-making power of the entire Hilson-Lehman Company, so he is not afraid that the tail will fail in the future? You must know that the bankers on Wall Street are all profiteers who eat people and don’t spit out their bones. As long as there are enough benefits, they even dare to trick the devil!
The executives of commercial banks have switched jobs, at least all of a sudden it is difficult to take away the huge deposits of customers! Many investment banks receive business through personal friendships between investment bankers and corporate management.
For example, although Blackstone Corporation has turned its main energy to equity and private equity funds in the past two years, when it was first established in 1984, it was actually doing traditional investment banking business. Just two years ago, Blackstone also made a big business-matching Japan’s Sony to buy Columbia Records.
The reason why Sony made the little-known Blackstone company its own acquisition consultant instead of going to big investment banks such as Morgan and Goldman Sachs is because Peterson and Sony’s president Akio Morita are close friends.
Therefore, among Wall Street investment banks, a senior partner often changes jobs and takes away a group of important clients. Before the decline of Lehman’s traditional investment banking business, it was precisely because Peterson, Schwarzman and others left one after another.
One of the reasons why Li Xuan is not afraid of Peterson borrowing the chicken to lay the egg, using his money to develop his own strength, and then slap his **** and leave, is that the other party is not too young. Peterson was born in 1926, which means he is 65 years old this year.
The position of chairman of Hilson-Lehman should be almost his last career before retirement. If it were a forty or fifty year old, energetic and ambitious, Li Xuan would really not dare to let go of his freedom.
But even so, Li Xuan did not forget to insure himself and let Zhuang Yuhai be the co-CEO of Hilson-Lehman. Although he couldn’t veto any of Peterson’s decisions, as long as the other party made any outrageous actions, he could inform Li Xuan as soon as possible.
Moreover, Zhuang Yuhai is also the next person in charge of the Hillson-Lehman company that Li Xuan has appointed. Of course, if Zhuang Yuhai wants to take over from Peterson smoothly, he still needs to take advantage of the transition period in the past few years to quickly accumulate enough reputation in the company and rebuild his network on Wall Street.
“Brother Hai, the purpose of my acquisition of Hilson-Lehman, of course, is clear to you. In addition to deepening our influence in American society, it is also to open a channel for financing from the American capital market! The 20th century belongs to the United States. Yes, but I believe the next 21st century belongs to Asia!
Many people regard the listing of Dongfang Games and Dongfang Research Institute as the climax of this colorful movement of Dongfang Group! But I don’t think so. This is just an opening ceremony for a grand performance. After the computer age, there will be the Internet age and the mobile communication age!
There is still a long way to go in the future. There are still many fantastic ideas in the minds of tens of thousands of researchers, waiting to be transformed into patented inventions that promote the progress of the times, and all this requires strong capital to promote! The fish tank in Hong Kong is too small, and if the density of the fish is too high, it will die of lack of oxygen, so we need to borrow someone else’s big fish pond to raise fish!
Hilson-Lehman is the matchmaker responsible for communicating with the owner of the fish pond. I hope you can bring a brand-new ‘Asian concept’ to the Wall Street capital market. This “Asian concept” is not the way the Japanese did before to buy the entire United States, but to share countless attractive investment opportunities from Asia to American investors! “Zhuang Yuhai is many years older than Li Xuan, and Li Xuan deliberately called him big brother to shorten the distance between the two sides.
The Eastern Group’s acquisition of Hilson-Lehman has been approved by the US government three days ago and has officially entered into force. And Zhuang Yuhai has also completed the handover of all work in Hong Kong, and will fly to the United States tomorrow to take up the new position of co-CEO of Hilson-Lehman.
Li Xuan deliberately set up a private banquet at home for him to practice before the other party assumed his new position, and also took this opportunity to exchange his long-term plans and prospects with the other party.
“Li Sheng, we Chinese have an old saying that no one asks if you are poor in a busy city, and you have distant relatives in the deep mountains! I have experienced it in the past two days. I have received no less than ten international long-distance calls from New York! Among them, there are My former colleagues at Salomon Company came to inquire about news, and some of my former clients in the United States came to me to ask me for a place in the IPO of Oriental Games!”
Although Li Xuan affectionately called him Brother Hai, Zhuang Yuhai was very clear about his position as a subordinate. He was still serious when he started talking, but he couldn’t help laughing when he said it.
“We Chinese people value friendship the most. Even if our customers are separated by thousands of miles, we can’t let them down. It’s not easy for them to get your phone number in Hong Kong. If it’s not his turn, the overseas allotment part of the Oriental Research Institute will also reserve a place for him!” Li Xuan responded easily.
“Is the overseas allotment of Oriental Research Institute also reserved for Americans? Can Oriental Games not satisfy their appetite?” Zhuang Yuhai has been dealing with the follow-up matters of the LH Fund these days, and has not paid much attention to the listing of the two companies.
“For a business that can make a profit without losing money, the more the Americans, the better! I also used the political-political pressure brought by the acquisition of Hilson-Lehman and the listing of Oriental Games in the United States as an excuse to bring the Oriental Research Institute. The reason for needing to stay in Hong Kong to be listed in Hong Kong has been fulfilled! Speaking of which, I would like to thank HSBC, they also helped us with an assist!” Li Xuan said with a hearty smile.
A few years ago, Li Xuan was not prepared to list the Oriental Research Institute at all, but as the company held more core patents, he could feel the pressure from all sides. So even if the Oriental Research Institute was not short of money, Li Xuan had to let the company go public.
Because only by becoming a public company under the supervision of shareholders, can many outsiders doubt the safety of the various hardware products produced by the Oriental Research Institute, including processors.
And Li Xuan never thought of letting the Oriental Research Institute go to the United States for listing, because that means the company must accept the supervision of relevant American institutions in the future. You must know that the United States has the most stringent review of high-tech transfer among all developed countries, which will make the future development of the Oriental Research Institute more constrained.
However, such a high-tech innovation enterprise attracting global attention has already attracted the attention of various forces. Therefore, as soon as the news that Li Xuan wanted to keep the Oriental Research Institute listed in Hong Kong came out, he immediately received international long-distance calls from the United States and the United Kingdom.
The call from the United States came from his friend, the current Texas governor, George W. Bush, who, straight to the point, invited the Oriental Research Institute to go public on the New York Stock Exchange. The British call came from a new member of the British House of Commons, Baron Hawke, the former chairman of Ikon, who also came to invite the Oriental Research Institute to go public in London.
Although these appear to be two private calls, they actually represent the will of the US and UK governments behind them. Li Xuan naturally cannot ignore it. At this time, the public opinion and political-political situation in Hong Kong have become the best excuse he used to shirk.
Just three months ago, HSBC announced that the group’s registered place would be moved from Hong Kong back to the UK~www.mtlnovel.com~ This move immediately triggered a large number of Hong Kong companies to follow suit, and everyone moved the company’s registered place from Hong Kong to overseas. .
And just when the wave of re-registration in Hong Kong’s industrial circles has not subsided, Dongfang Group has not only spent huge sums of money to enter the US financial industry, but also let its core subsidiaries go public in the United States.
This exacerbated the huge unease in the entire market about Hong Kong’s prospects, and Li Xuan even received an inquiry call from Beijing-Beijing. At this time, if the Oriental Research Institute chooses to go public again, the confidence of the entire Hong Kong economic community in the future may collapse in an instant!
Therefore, in order to stabilize the hearts of Hong Kong, Li Xuancai took the initiative to stand up and start the IPO process of the Oriental Research Institute in advance. Save the capital market’s confidence in Hong Kong by letting the Oriental Research Institute stay listed in Hong Kong!
His statement can be said to be impeccable. Americans and British people can’t always say that the collapse of Hong Kong’s economy is none of my business, so they can only acquiesce to Li Xuan’s approach!
