Rise up Hong Kong! Build a super wealthy Zhuang family

Chapter 43 Come to Merrill Lynch to discuss cooperation (please read, monthly ticket)

"Hello, Mr. Zhuang."

"Hello, Mr. Zhuang."

"Well, hello everyone, don't pay attention to me. You can continue working. Thank you for your hard work."

"Okay Zhuang Sheng."

"Jie Zai, come here and report the situation to me." Zhuang Rongxu called the person in charge over.

"Okay Zhuangsheng, we have secretly acquired 3.21 million shares, accounting for 3.21% of the company's equity. In order not to be discovered, we used multiple accounts to attract external attention."

"Very well, keep doing this."

"Understood, we will not let Zhuang Sheng down."

"What's going on at Wharf now?" Zhuang Rongxu asked. It was now the end of January 1980, and he had to speed up Mr. Bao's fight with Land so that he could get more funds.

"As the struggle between Bao Sang and Land becomes more and more intense, and we are also obstructing it, the share price of Wharf changes every day. The current share price of Wharf has grown to 78 Hong Kong dollars per share. Judging from the current situation, and our Based on the analysis, we believe that their struggles are similar, and it should be impossible for the price to be higher.”

"You mean you want me to sell my shares in Wharf?" Zhuang Rongxu looked at the broker and asked.

"Yes, Mr. Zhuang, but this is just our professional advice. The decision is in your hands."

Zhuang Rongxu pretended to think for a while: "No, I think neither Mr. Bao nor Land will give up control of Wharf easily."

"What is the current holding status of Baosheng and Land? Is there any concrete news?"

"Yes, according to our investigation at Huaqi Bank, Bao Sheng actually controls 31.68% of Wharf's shares, and Land's shares are close to 30%."

The two want to add less than 62% of the shares, minus the shares controlled by themselves and some small shareholders. At least 20% of the shares are still outside the market. Thinking of this, Zhuang Rongxu knew what to do.

"The current highest price released by Bao Sheng is more than 78 Hong Kong dollars per share, right?" Zhuang Rongxu asked in confirmation.

"Yes."

"Okay then, go and continue to spread the news immediately. No, publish it in the newspaper at the same time. Directly claim that the Nanyang Chaebol is willing to acquire 20 million Wharf shares at a high price of 90 Hong Kong dollars per share and trade it in cash at Huaqi Bank."

"In the newspaper?"

"What if, Mr. Zhuang, someone really comes to trade with us?" the broker asked worriedly.

"They have no chance. After it is published in the newspaper, I will find someone to go to Huaqi Bank to trade with you with my own account equity and create a fake appearance."

"Oh, I understand, Mr. Zhuang, you mean to show them the show. Even if retail investors do come to trade that day, and our people are already in the way, it won't be their turn to trade, right?" Broker It seems that he already understands Zhuang Rongxu's approach.

"Yes, that's it. At that time, we can definitely announce that we have fully acquired the quota."

"Okay, I understand. I'll get ready right away." The agent ran out excitedly.

Zhuang Rongxu knew that only in this way could he arouse their struggle more quickly and complete his plan.

"OK, you continue your work, I'll leave first."

"Okay Zhuangsheng, goodbye."

After leaving the exchange, Zhuang Rongxu went directly to the headquarters of Huaqi Bank to find Brett.

He also needs to confirm as soon as possible the shares that Brett told him about. As long as these shares are in his hands, then he is qualified to compete with Li Chaoren.

There is not much time left for him now. HSBC has already conducted an equity transaction with Li Chaoren, but it has not been announced yet.

Li Chaoren will wait until he secretly acquires more than 40% of the company's equity before he announces it and will fully take over the company. However, it will be more than six months by then, so he must intercept Li Chaoren's Hu and get More equity.

It's not far from the exchange to the headquarters of Huaqi Bank, and it only takes a few minutes to get there.

"Sir Zhuang, you are here."

"Hello, Manager Brett, please give me the information on Merrill Lynch Investment Company. I need to find out the details of the other party as soon as possible and get the equity."

"Zhuang, you don't have to worry. Merrill Lynch is an investment company. Like any financial company, it will not sell the equity of these industrial companies. As long as you can afford the price, they will sell it."

Zhuang Rongxu felt much relieved after hearing Brett's words. Then he thought about it and remembered the time in his original world. Shen Bi, the senior manager of HSBC Bank, once said that those who work in finance do not look down on the speed at which industrial companies make money.

It can be seen that Merrill Lynch Investment Company will indeed not hold on to the equity of the company it wants.

"I understand. I will arrange for someone to come over and talk to you right away. I'll leave it to you, Manager Brett, to worry about the other shares. The sooner I get them, the more at ease I will be."

"Sir Zhuang, don't worry. Since Huaqi has collected your money, we will definitely do our best to handle everything for our customers."

"Hahaha, then I'll feel at ease."

"Then I'll leave first. Goodbye, Manager Brett." Zhuang Rongxu happily waved to Brett. He needed to go back immediately and let Que Yi go to Merrill Lynch Investment Company to discuss the equity of the company he wanted.

Soon after returning to the company, Queyi was already waiting for him in his office.

"Queyi, you already know what to do, right?" Zhuang Rongxu asked seriously.

"Yes boss. I know how to do it."

"Then you can bring someone over to talk. You don't have to be afraid to talk in the name of the company. As long as you can talk about your achievements and not be afraid of being discovered, you won't have to fight Li Chaoren."

"I understand boss."

Queyi took the finance officer Queliu, Queshi who was in charge of legal affairs, and their assistants, all of whom were beauties, to Merrill Lynch Investment Company.

"Hello, we are here to see General Manager Kanani, please inform us."

"Hello, madam, do you have an appointment?"

"No, but I'm here to discuss business with him. This is my card. You can report it. The business we discussed is over 100 million. The general manager won't blame you. Go ahead." Que Yi directly stated his intention.

The receptionist at Merrill Lynch was eyeing Queyi and the others, and seeing that their trend was so strong, she didn't dare to neglect them.

"Okay everyone, please wait a moment."

"Hello Monica, I'm the front desk. There are a few ladies here who want to discuss business with the general manager. There is no appointment, but she said the business amount is over 100 million, so..."

"OK, please wait a moment."

After a while, the beautiful Monica put down the phone, stood up and walked into an office.

“Dong dong dong!!!”

"come in."

"Boss, there are some ladies at the front desk who want to talk to you about business. They say the amount exceeds 100 million, so please let me know."

"Miss?"

"Let them in."

"Yes. Boss."

Soon, Queyi and the others arrived at the office of Kanani, the general manager of Merrill Lynch.

“OMG….”

When Kanani saw Queyi and the others entering the office, he was completely shocked by their appearance.

"Welcome all beauties, please take a seat."

"Thank you."

"Hello, Sir Kanani, I'm glad you are willing to meet us. I am the general manager of Dingsheng Company. My name is Zhuang Queyi. I came to your company today to talk to you about a company's stock."

"No hurry, no rush, what would you like to drink, coffee? Milk tea?"

"Thank you, we don't need it."

"General Manager Kanani, let's get down to business. I hope you can transfer the stock to us." Que Yi did not waste time talking to the other party about unnecessary things, and simply got to the point.

"OK, Miss Queyi, which company's stock do you want?" Kanani saw that Queyi was so serious, so he could only put away his thoughts.

"Hutchison \u0026 Co., all stocks."

"Hutchison?"

"How did you know that Merrill Lynch owned it?" Kanani also asked seriously.

"Of course we have our own channels to understand, General Manager Canani, let's just talk about it, so as not to waste everyone's time."

"OK, then what price did you pay to acquire these stocks?" Kanani asked with a smile.

"The current market price of Hutchison Company is HK$13.68 per share, and we are willing to trade at HK$14."

"Haha...hahaha..."

Kanani laughed at the price.

"Miss Queyi, do you know that Chairman Li Chaoren of Cheung Kong Industries has approached me? Do you know how much he paid per share for the acquisition?"

When Que heard this, she was immediately shocked, but she hid it well and did not show any change on her face. She just glanced at Kanani.

"I don't know who wants to acquire it, and we don't necessarily need the company's shares. How much do you think, General Manager Canani, will you be willing to trade these shares for?" Que Yi tested calmly.

"Miss Queyi, let me tell you the truth, the price I gave Li Sheng is 20 Hong Kong dollars per share. If you want it too, then it will be the same price."

"The transaction of HKD 20 is already a 50% premium. General Manager Kanani, do you think this price is possible?"

"OK, I'm sorry to bother you today."

Queyi was betting that Kanani was panicking, because she had just clearly observed that this guy was waving his hands unnaturally when he was talking about the price, which was completely different from the conversation he had when they first met.

So he's betting that this guy is screwing him.

Maybe Li Chaoren has approached him, but the price will never be as outrageous as 20 Hong Kong dollars.

After all, Hutchison Matheson is now a company with negative equity. It is already good that the stock price does not fall, but it is still trading at a 50% premium. She is not a fool.

Kanani watched Queyi and others leave, and it wasn't until they left the office that this guy finally spoke.

"Let them come back..."

"Yes boss."
