The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang

What was the turnover of Li \u0026 Fung Group last year?

130 million Hong Kong dollars!

This is because Li \u0026 Fung Toys started selling the peripherals of "Fantasy Comics" last year. Without the peripherals of "Fantasy Comics", the sales of the entire Li \u0026 Fung Group would only be 84 million Hong Kong dollars!

This year's turnover is calculated as of October, and by the end of the year, it will only be 110 million Hong Kong dollars!

This is also the reason why Lifeng Toys always wanted to get the merchandise of "Fantasy Comics" when it faced Chu Huan.

Because this piece has unknowingly become one of the most important products of Li \u0026 Fung Group.

Now Feng Guolun has brought an order of 100 million Hong Kong dollars.

This can also understand why Feng Guolun is so excited.

Calculated according to the profit of ready-made garments, if this order is completed, Li \u0026 Fung will obtain a profit of 15 million Hong Kong dollars.

For Li \u0026 Fung Group, this is life-saving money.

Feng Hanzhu previously required that Feng's holdings in Li \u0026 Fung must reach more than 51%, and ensure that the company can provide 50 million working capital at any time.

However, they lost the lawsuit against Chu Huan's "Fantasy Comics", allowing them to directly pay "Fantasy Comics" 30 million Hong Kong dollars in compensation.

At this time, they only had 20 million liquidity in Li \u0026 Fung.

Feng Hanzhu suppressed the surprise in his heart, and asked in a trembling voice: "What company is the other party, is this order reliable?"

Feng Guolun said: "I have sent people to Europe to investigate, and I believe there will be a reply soon!"

In the 1970s when communication was underdeveloped, it was impossible to know all the companies in the world. However, Li \u0026 Fung’s business is now mainly concentrated in North America. The business in North America accounts for 60% of Li \u0026 Fung Group’s company share, while Europe only has 10%. The market in Southeast Asia and Japan is only 30%, so they are naturally not so familiar with European companies.

"Yes, we must investigate clearly!" Feng Hanzhu repeated, and then immediately asked: "What conditions did the other party propose?"

Feng Guolun said: "From the day the contract is signed, the goods will be delivered within three months. In addition, if the contract is breached, 300% of the total value of the garments will be charged as liquidated damages!"

Feng Hanzhu was stunned for a moment, and there was no problem with the delivery time. Although it was a little late, as long as Lifeng's energy was activated, it could still be completed, but the 300% liquidated damages was a bit too high, and it was still the entire value of the garment.

In case, if the transaction fails to deliver on time, Li \u0026 Fung Group cannot afford the liquidated damages, and they will be in danger at that time!

Feng Guolun continued: "In addition, I calculated that if we can complete this order, we will get 30 million profits!"

In the past, a 15% profit in trade was already a very considerable profit, but now this business can actually have a 30% profit?

This made Feng Hanzhu fall into silence again.

"Profits are not directly proportional to risks!" Feng Guojing pondered, "Although the profits this time are already very high, if something goes wrong, it will hit our Li \u0026 Fung Group too hard!"

Feng Hanzhu nodded and said, "That's true."

Hearing what Feng Hanzhu and Feng Guojing said, Feng Guolun said anxiously: "But this order is too important to us Li \u0026 Fung Group, as long as we complete this order, we will have enough funds, even in the future We can also form a long-term cooperative relationship with this customer, so that we can make up for our company's previous losses!"

Feng Muying also nodded slowly: "This is true, and I have calculated it just now. According to the size of our Li \u0026 Fung Group, an order of 100 million Hong Kong dollars in three months should be able to be completed, as long as the other party has no problems. , we can take over this business!"

As the person in charge of Li \u0026 Fung Group, Feng Hanzhu was caught in a dilemma at this time. There were good and bad things about this matter, but the risk was too great.

"Daddy, now that we have absolute control over the company, we don't have to worry about Chu Huan's impact on us in the stock market. Now is the best time for us to develop. If we let go of this opportunity, wait for Chu Huan to make a move." When dealing with us, we can also have more chips in our hands."

Feng Guolun persuaded.

This matter is led by him, he naturally hopes to complete this cooperation!

Feng Hanzhu thought for a long time, and said: "Didn't you send someone to investigate this company? Let's talk about it after the investigation results come out!"

Seeing what Feng Guojing wanted to say, Feng Hanzhu interrupted him and said: "The matter is settled like this. Daddy knows what you want to do, but this order is really too big. If you The result of not being able to complete is too serious, so we must be fully prepared!"

Hearing what Feng Hanzhu said, Feng Guojing had no choice but to nod.

Chu Huan came to the Xiangjiang Club, where he met Shen Bi, the general manager of HSBC Bank that he had made an appointment with!

There are two Xiangjiang Clubs in Xiangjiang, one is the Xiangjiang Stock Exchange, and the other is the earliest private club in Xiangjiang.

In the last century, foreign businessmen in Hong Kong organized the Xiangjiang Club (referred to as the Xiangjiang Club).

The Hong Kong Club is surrounded by mountains and the sea, elegant and luxurious, with dance floors, bars, coffee shops, chess (card) rooms, libraries, etc. Its members, in addition to foreign businessmen, also include Hong Kong government officials, royal officers stationed in Hong Kong, pastors and doctors, etc. foreigners.

At that time, Xiangjiang Society did not allow Chinese to enter.

But that was in the last century and earlier in this century. Although the Hong Kong Club is now open to the outside world, more foreigners are willing to come here.

In the booth, Chu Huan saw Shen Bi waiting here.

"Manager Shen, I'm really sorry, I'm late!"

Chu Huan smiled and shook hands with Shen Bi.

Shen Bi's original name was Michael Sandberg, and he took this Chinese name after he came to Xiangjiang.

Shen Bi laughed and said, "Mr. Chu is not late, it's just that I came early!"

After Chu Huan sat down, Shen Bi continued: "I haven't congratulated Mr. Chu yet, the sales of youth toys are gratifying, and Mr. Chu once again found a company that attracts money!"

The sales situation of Youth Toys has not been announced to the public. Although there is also an account for Youth Toys in HSBC, the capital circulation only accounts for less than one-tenth of the entire Youth Toys!

But even one tenth was enough to surprise Shen Bi.

Chu Huan smiled modestly: "It's just luck. If it wasn't for HSBC's help, it's hard to say whether Youth Toys could have been built!"

This is naturally a polite word, and what Chu Huan was talking about was the loan from HSBC last year.

Shen Bi didn't delve into this matter either, but just said with a smile: "If it's all luck, I think Mr. Chu must be a very lucky person!"

Chu Huan laughed, and covered up the matter, but revealed the reason for looking for Shen Bi this time.

"Manager Shen, the Chinese Bank is actually not very useful to HSBC, but if we give it to Hang Lung, it will become the headquarters of my personal company in Xiangjiang. This time, I still hope that Manager Shen can open the door of convenience. , How about giving the Huaren Bank to me personally, as if I personally owe HSBC a favor?"

Shen Bi smiled, and said: "Mr. Chu, you shouldn't come to me for this matter, you should go to the Feng and Li families, or Li Ka-shing, no matter what you think, you shouldn't come to HSBC !"

At this time, Huaren Bank belonged to Huaren Real Estate, and Huaren Real Estate was jointly founded by the two families of Xiangjiang Feng Pingshan and Li Guanchun. When Huaren Real Estate was founded, its business was very single. The one with commercial value is the Chinese Walk located on Pedder Street in Central, Xiangjiang.

For a long time, the decision-making power of Huazhi has been jointly owned by the two families of Feng and Li. The two families take turns to serve as the chairman of the company's board of directors.

Precisely because it is a company owned by a wealthy family, Huazhi has always enjoyed a high reputation in the upper class of Xiangjiang, and the general public rarely knows about it.

Huazhi has been inactive since its listing in 1968, and its stock trading has been sparse. It is said that even those in the securities industry who have been in the securities industry for many years do not know anything about it.

The reason why this stock became famous later was because it was attacked by Liu Luanxiong!

As for the transaction of Huaren Bank, it has always been a closely guarded matter in later generations. Some reports said that Huaren Bank was bought by HSBC. Taking this opportunity to contact HSBC, it laid the foundation for the future of Snake Whale and Huang.

Some reports said that the Chinese Bank was actually acquired by Li Jiacheng, and as for the rebuilding of the Chinese Bank, it was just the first cooperation between Li Jiacheng's Changshi and HSBC.

Before these two statements, Chu Huan had a certain degree of doubt.

If it is said that Huarenhang was acquired by HSBC, then why did the rebuilt Huarenhang become the headquarters of Cheung Kong?

But if it was acquired by Li Jiacheng, HSBC would not be involved in such things as rebuilding the Chinese Bank.

It was only when Chu Huan came to this world that this incident really happened did he truly understand the reason.

The rebuilding of the Huaren Bank is actually not the first cooperation between Li Jiacheng and HSBC. The acquisition of the Huaren Bank is the first cooperation between Li Jiacheng and HSBC.

Or it can be said to be the first collaboration with Shen Bi!

On the surface, Li Jiacheng is operating the acquisition of Huarenhang, but in fact, the financial master behind the scenes is HSBC Bank behind Shen Bi.

Although Shen Bi has been regarded as the successor of the HSBC Taipan at this time, this does not mean that Shen Bi does not need to show his performance, but Shen Bi needs to have more outstanding performance to make himself in the Take that position in the future.

Li Jiacheng didn't know what method he used to get in touch with Shen Bi, and he didn't know what kind of contract the two parties signed in private, but what is certain is that Li Jiacheng was buying the Huarenhang on the surface, but the Huarenhang Its own rights and interests should belong to HSBC.

If you continue to follow this plan, Li Jiacheng should get the Chinese Bank after the reconstruction and after paying a price unknown to outsiders!

As for why Shen Bi took the stage to speak after the reconstruction of the Chinese Bank, the more reason should be that the confidentiality measures of the cooperation between the two companies were not very good, and even at that time, both parties had already disdained and kept this secret.

Back in time, the secret is still there. That's why Shen Bi told Chu Huan to contact the Feng and Li families of Huaren Real Estate, or contact Li Jiacheng.

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Manager Shen, let's not keep secrets in front of the bright people. If it's just Lijiacheng, Chinatown now belongs to Hang Lung Real Estate."

Shen Bi never thought that this matter would be kept from Chu Huan. Hearing what Chu Huan said, he laughed and said, "It seems that youth toys are really a profitable industry. Mr. Chu's words are really very interesting at this time. Confidence!"

Chu Huan smiled wryly and said, "Manager Shen, if I had the confidence, I wouldn't have invited Manager Shen out today. In Xiangjiang, I have always been very proud of being able to cooperate with HSBC!"

The current HSBC can't be deadlocked. Although on the bright side, the revenue of Youth Toys has surpassed HSBC, this does not mean that Chu Huan is already stronger than HSBC.

To put it simply, if Chu Huan started a war with HSBC at this time, all the shopping malls previously leased to youth toy stores would definitely take back their properties immediately with compensation for liquidated damages.

The supply of raw materials from Jiahu Textile will also be stopped immediately.

Even Huaye City's project will run into resistance.

The influence of HSBC in Xiangjiang is not how much money he can earn every year, but how many companies in Xiangjiang are making money with the help of HSBC!

At this time, HSBC's influence in Xiangjiang can be said to be pervasive!

This is also the reason why Chu Huan must get the Li \u0026 Fung Group, because the Li \u0026 Fung Group is a very important part of supplementing Chu Huan's business sector, and if he gets the Li \u0026 Fung Group, Chu Huan will be less restrained by HSBC.

"Mr. Chu, I'm really sorry. The Chinese Bank is also very important to us at HSBC. We at HSBC are really helpless in this matter!"

As I said before, Shen Bi has always been wary of Chu Huan, who is developing rapidly. If Chu Huan acquires Huarenhang, he will definitely rebuild it, and the assets under Chu Huan’s name will definitely continue Growth, now that Chu Huan already has a youth toy, if he adds a Chinese bank, he will be closer to catching up with HSBC.

In addition, Shen Bi admires Li Jiacheng very much, and thinks that it is better to send charcoal to Li Jiacheng in the snow than to make Chu Huan the icing on the cake. Shen Bi is more optimistic about supporting Li Jiacheng to rise.

So now Shen Bi doesn't really want to give up the Chinese travel to Chu Huan, not to mention that this Chinese travel project is an important achievement for himself to be a HSBC executive in the future!

Chu Huan frowned slightly. He didn't expect Shen Bi to be so determined. He had already lowered his posture so much, but the other party still refused to give in.

"What if the subsequent financial situation of Huaye City is handed over to HSBC?"

Chu Huan knew that if he didn't come up with some trump cards at this time, it would be impossible to convince Shen Bi with his words alone!

Sure enough, Shen Bi’s brows began to twitch after listening to it. Now HSBC and Chu Huan are cooperating with companies such as Hang Lung Properties and Black and White Video. The external financial transactions of these two companies are all through HSBC’s account, and the working capital is also stored in HSBC. .

This is also the most important reason why Chu Huan has a good relationship with HSBC.

But people are greedy. Huaye City is a billion-dollar super project, and with the merchants who will move in after this project, it can be said that if there is this project, even if it is as strong as HSBC, it will be a big help!

But. Do you really want to promise Chu Huan?

Shen Bi naturally knew that this matter would bring him more help, but as I said before, Shen Bi had always been wary of Chu Huan, and Shen Bi was the most successful executive in HSBC history. His eyes must be beyond the immediate interests, he sees farther.

It is true that the performance will be better if I get the project of Huaye City by myself, but this matter will not have any impact on Chu Huan. More importantly, Shen Bi is worried that if he agrees to Chu Huan like this, it will give Chu Huan Create an impression that HSBC can also be bought!

It took almost an instant for Shen Bi to figure this matter out, and he could not agree to Chu Huan, otherwise, Chu Huan's reputation would be even higher.

HSBC needs to suppress Chu Huan. Only in this way can Chu Huan understand that Hong Kong HSBC is the real one who speaks for itself.

Although Ni Chuhuan is popular right now, it doesn't mean that we at HSBC should give way to you!

After thinking these things through, Shen Bi said to Chu Huan with a smile on his face: "Mr. Chu, I'm really sorry, although we at HSBC are very interested in this matter, we still can't agree to you. The Chinese Bank is very important to us at HSBC!"

When Shen Bi rejected Chu Huan's Huaye City project, Chu Huan understood that this matter was irrelevant to Shen Bi.

If it doesn't make sense, don't talk about it!

Although Chu Huan was afraid of HSBC at this time, it didn't mean that Chu Huan would be afraid of HSBC.

"Since this is the case, it seems that I can only find another place in Central!"

Chu Huan said with a smile.

"In fact, the Jiahu Building under the name of Mr. Chu is located in Central, and it is absolutely possible to rebuild this building!"

Shen Bi spoke to Chu Huan with a smile on his face.

"Manager Shen is right, maybe I should really think about it!"

After Chu Huan finished speaking, he got up, bid farewell to Shen Bi and left.

After Chu Huan left, Shen Bi's face was not relaxed. He had investigated Chu Huan carefully and knew that Chu Huan would definitely not be a person who gave up lightly.

After thinking for a while, Shen Bi got up and came to the bar of the Xiangjiang Club, dialed Li Jiacheng's phone number, and asked the other party to come here now.

Li Jiacheng heard that it was Shen Bi who let him go, and he didn't dare to delay at all. After the company explained, he immediately drove to Xiangjiang Club.

"Chu Huan came to me just now, and he also wants to travel with Chinese!"

After seeing Li Jiacheng, Shen Bi preached directly.

After Li Jiacheng heard this, his brows twitched, and the scene from the past immediately came to mind. At the beginning, he wanted to join Huaye City, but was rejected by Chu Huan in the end. This has always been a regret in Li Jiacheng's heart.

But he didn't expect Chu Huan to be eyeing the Huarenhang just like himself at this time!

For the Chinese travel, Li Jiacheng is very important, and even regards this matter as his most important project this year.

First, you can take this opportunity to get online with HSBC!

The second is that Li Jiacheng is really optimistic about the location of Huarenhang. This is the most core area in Central. As long as he is taken down in the future, then even without relying on Huaye City, Cheung Kong will still become the most influential real estate company in Xiangjiang one.

The third is that Li Jiacheng is also very optimistic about the future value of Huarenhang. Central is the most core area of ​​Xiangjiang, and Huarenhang is also the most core area of ​​Central. After the real estate industry in Xiangjiang takes off again in the future, the value of Huarenhang will definitely increase. times!

In fact, Li Jiacheng did not think wrongly. The price that Huaren Property sold Huarenhang to them was 130 million Hong Kong dollars, but after 2010, the value of Huarenhang reached 20 to 30 billion.

"What do you mean, Manager Shen?"

Li Jiacheng was really worried that Shen Bi would tend to Chu Huan and end his cooperation with him. After all, compared to Chu Huan at this time, he was really nothing!

Shen Bi smiled and said to Li Jiacheng: "Don't worry about this, I did not agree to Chu Huan's request, the Chinese travel is still our goal!"

call.

Hearing Shen Bi's assurance, Li Jiacheng breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he has HSBC's support on his side, he doesn't have to worry about Chu Huan's appearance.

"Manager Shen, I have to say that you are a person with a very strategic vision. In your hands, HSBC will become stronger and stronger in the future!"

Regarding Li Jiacheng's compliment, Shen Bi just smiled, and then reminded: "But even with the support of our HSBC, according to my understanding of Chu Huan, he will not give up easily, so you still have to deal with this matter." If you watch carefully, don't relax, if Chu Huan takes advantage of your loopholes, you will be in trouble!"

It's really troublesome!

If he didn't get the Chinese People's Bank and lost the Huaye City project in the end, Shen Bi would really be ungrateful to both sides.

Li Jiacheng nodded seriously and said: "I will hurry up and contact Feng Tianfen again, and try to take down the Huarenhang as soon as possible!"

Feng Tianfen, the helm of the Feng family at this time, his father Feng Pingshan, Jian Yueqiang's father Jian Dongpu, and Li Fuzhao's father Li Guanchun jointly founded the Bank of East Asia, and then Feng Pingshan and Li Guanchun jointly founded Huaren Real Estate.

The older generation started a business together, and the relationship is naturally good, but someone said later, never start a business with a good friend.

This is not without reason.

In their second generation, the relationship between them is not so good. In the future, there will be some struggles among the three over the Bank of East Asia, and the other two will also fight internally because of Chinese property ownership.

It was precisely because of the struggle between the Feng and Li families that Liu Luanxiong had an opportunity to take down Huaren Real Estate!

But that's all for later.

At this time, the shift chairman of Huaren Property is Feng Tianfen from the Feng family!

Shen Bi nodded after hearing this, and said, "I will also call them personally!"

After listening to Li Jiacheng, he immediately smiled and said: "This is the best!"

Shen Bi comforted Li Jiacheng and said, "Don't worry, with our HSBC coming forward, Huaren Real Estate will definitely save face!"

Li Jiacheng complimented: "It's only natural!"

Afterwards, the two discussed the details of the acquisition of the Huaren Bank, in order to be able to successfully win the Huaren Bank.

Chu Huan came to the Hang Lung Center and called He Bingguang, "Increase the price of buying Huaren, and see the reaction of Huaren Real Estate!"

Just as Shen Bi guessed, it is impossible for Chu Huan to give up the Chinese business so easily.

Chu Huan had told He Bingguang before that this matter would be handled by himself. Originally, He Bingguang thought that Chu Huan could reach an agreement with HSBC, but now that he heard what Chu Huan said, he understood that the two sides had not reached an agreement.

"HSBC doesn't want to give up the Chinese business?" He Bingguang couldn't help asking Chu Huan.

Chu Huan nodded slightly and said, "That's true, now it depends on who bids higher!"

He Bingguang said worriedly: "But if this is the case, we will confront HSBC head-on!"

Chu Huan looked at He Bingguang and asked calmly, "Why, are you worried about HSBC?"

If He Bingguang's answer did not satisfy Chu Huan, Chu Huan would have to consider who to replace He Bingguang next.

He Bingguang smiled wryly, and said, "I think in the entire Xiangjiang business community, no one should not be worried before going to war with HSBC!"

Speaking of this, the worry on He Bingguang's face disappeared, instead he revealed a determined and somewhat excited look, and said: "But it is not the company of Xiangjiang that is qualified to fight head-to-head with HSBC, so Chairman, don't worry , I will definitely not let you down!"

Only then did Chu Huan nod in satisfaction. Although Chu Huan already had his own ideas on how to get the Chinese bank in his heart, if his subordinates didn't even have the courage to fight against HSBC, then they would really keep it. It didn't work either.

"The final price for Hang Lung Center's acquisition of Huarenhang is 150 million, but you have to raise it slowly, don't worry, the longer the time is delayed, the better!"

Chu Huan ordered He Bingguang to say.

He Bingguang showed a trace of doubt, but still nodded and said: "Understood."

After explaining this matter, Chu Huan let He Bingguang go out.

After He Bingguang left, Chu Huan sat there, and began to review in his heart the real way how he got the Chinese travel.

In fact, for Chu Huan, it is not difficult to get the Chinese travel.

The most difficult thing is how to avoid quarreling with HSBC under the premise of getting the Chinese bank.

And the key to this is actually Shen Bi!

Judging from these few contacts, Chu Huan had already sensed Shen Bi's vigilance towards him.

"If I went to find Sha Ya myself, I might be able to get the Chinese bank in the hands of HSBC, but it would not fundamentally relieve Shen Bi's hostility towards me."

Chu Huan scratched his head thinking about it.

Sha Ya's term of office will not end until 1977. At that time, it is time for Shen Bi to take over, and his side and HSBC will definitely not have a friendly relationship in the end.

And Shen Bi is a capable person?

As the saying goes, if you can't solve the trouble, then solve the troublemaker!

Slowly, a complete plan began to take shape in Chu Huan's mind, but this plan still needed a key person!

Thinking of this, Chu Huan dialed the number of Jiaku Consulting Company. Ma Jizu answered the phone, and after hearing Chu Huan's voice, he asked, "Boss, what's your order?"

"It's nothing, just ask about the company's situation!" Chu Huan suddenly took back what he was going to say.

Although Ma Jizu had some doubts about Chu Huan's call, he still told Chu Huan about the company's situation.

Chu Huan hung up the phone after listening, then walked out of Hang Lung Center, and said to Yang Wei who was driving: "I will go to the company later and tell Ma Jizu that I will wait for him at home!"

"OK!"

Uh, I got up late, two chapters have been updated, sorry everyone~~
