Chapter 266: Li is determined to win, so she uses extraordinary means. This is a routine operation!
The surprised expression on He Yuji's face disappeared in a flash, and he soon regained his composure.
Chen Shixian was able to get away with getting rid of the village grandfather Lu Hantao, and was able to carve out a bloody path in the cannibalistic Hong Kong Island.
If you don't have some skills, means and abilities, you can't get on the table.
As for where this money comes from.
Of course he wouldn't be stupid enough to ask.
I am envious.
Dragons have their own way, snakes have their own way, each follows their own path. Whatever path it is, those are all taboos that cannot be violated. Everyone has a tacit understanding and will not try to find out.
Besides, even if you find out something, can you replicate other people’s methods?
He will not get to the bottom of things that have no benefits or meaning.
A mountain is just a mountain.
The mountain is not a mountain.
The mountain is still a mountain!
This is the state of mind that every big boss must cultivate. He Yuji has cultivated to the third level.
"Ah Xian, you are very efficient. Give me a few days and let the finance department arrange the payment."
“Once the funds are in place, we will choose an auspicious day and break ground!”
He Yuji said tactfully.
It will take him some time to raise the funds.
"He Sheng is a big company, a big group, with many processes, and I understand."
"Actually, I have found an auspicious day. Tomorrow is a good day to start construction..."
Chen Shixian said with a smile.
"So this young man is here to show off to me!"
He Yuji laughed and scolded: "Don't rush me, three days, three days later, the funds will be in place!"
I was fooled by Chen Shixian.
You can't compare people.
For the first time, I felt a slight sense of frustration in front of a young man.
There are many wealthy people like him in Hong Kong with assets worth tens of billions or even hundreds of billions.
However, cash is not abundant.
Most of the money is in assets, and some has been invested in new projects.
Moreover, as the group grows, there are many things beyond our control, including money.
There are very few people like Chen Shixian who can take out hundreds of millions in cash in minutes.
As for funds, even he would have to ask the group to make some adjustments, and it was impossible for him to take them out at any time.
"He Sheng, how dare I act in front of a giant like you?"
Chen Shixian praised it modestly, and then said in a relaxed tone: "As for Li's side, the news has been released that they want to sell 61% of the shares."
"Mr. He, you also have shares in Twenty-One. If you take the opportunity to sell them, you can make 100 or 200 million in a minute."
"I saved 700 million, but I had to go through many hardships and obstacles."
"It's not easy to donate money and accumulate virtue."
Seven hundred million, according to the standards of the last robbery, it would take at least one and one-third robbery to earn that much.
He also donated more than one million dollars’ worth of surveillance equipment to the police force.
No one can understand this kind of hardship!
He Yuji automatically ignored Chen Shixian's Versailles part and keenly noticed the message revealed in his words.
He asked suspiciously, "Why? You are so interested in Li's, do you want to acquire it?"
"He Sheng has sharp eyes and golden pupils. I can't hide my little thoughts from you."
Chen Shixian smiled heartily and said simply, "Are you willing to give up the shares of Rediffusion Television?"
He Yuji was shocked again, revealing an expression of surprise without concealing it.
Chen Shixian has just invested 700 million yuan in the second phase of the village development project.
Change hands, and acquire Rediffusion again?
Even if you only buy 21% of his shares, it will cost 100 or 200 million.
By this calculation, he has at least 1 billion in his hands!!!
Not to mention, if even the 61% of the shares are to be acquired.
Chen Shixian must have at least 1 billion in cash! !
This time, He Yuji was really shocked.
More than one billion, even for him, it would take at least several years to earn it, but the other party did it so easily.
It's simply unfathomable and unimaginable!
He said that he could also make this money, donate it, and do good deeds, no matter what hardships and obstacles he had to go through!
He Yuji's eyes turned red with envy. He felt dry in the mouth, so he picked up the tea beside him and took a sip.
Chen Shixian, this nouveau riche, is so exciting.
Young people are young people after all. When money comes quickly, they spend it recklessly. Buying beautiful things is a waste of money.
ATV's stock price has been declining, and even its major shareholder, Eagle Party, can't stand it anymore and wants to sell off its shares.
When he got the news, he prepared to sell his shares to avoid losing money.
He will not get involved in this mess with the TV station.
Because there is no money at all.
Now that someone has taken over, I will definitely sell it if I can.
At least it can be sold for a good price now.
Otherwise, like Jiayi, it will go bankrupt, liquidate, close down, and lose everything!
However, if he wanted to sell his shares to someone else, he would do it without saying a word.
I have to say something to Chen Shixian.
After all, the two are partners now, and there will be many interests involved in the subsequent development of the village.
We can't ruin the relationship just for a few hundred million.
"Ah Xian, Li's is a sunset industry now, what are you buying it for?"
"Just like Mr. Liu, I work in the entertainment industry. There are many big stars there. They are beautiful, have smooth bodies, and are full of water. I also want to be a sniper in the entertainment industry."
Chen Shixian laughed with a playful smile.
He can't say, I have foresight and know that ATV is not doing well now, but it will be very good in the future, right?
"Wow, you have really lofty ambitions."
He Yuji casually agreed, not taking it seriously at all, and asked again seriously:
"Have you really thought it through? Do you want to buy shares in Rediffusion?"
"Mr. He, don't worry. I have thought it over carefully and I will never regret it. Just tell me, do you want to sell it?"
When He Yuji heard Chen Shixian's words without hesitation, he didn't say anything more.
So he agreed on the spot to sell 21% of his shares in Rediffusion Television to Chen Shixian.
He also gave a friendly price of 175 million, in round numbers.
"As for Rediffusion's head office, I'd like to trouble Mr. He to help make the connection."
After agreeing on the price, Chen Shixian said politely.
"That's easy. Most of Rediffusion's shares are in the Eagle Head Office. The person in charge of the Hong Kong region is Mr. Richard from the Murdoch family. I have some friendship with him."
"I can help you arrange a meeting with him. You can negotiate the price."
"He has wanted to sell the Rediffusion for a long time, but no one has taken it over. As long as you offer the right price, it will be easy to buy it."
He Yuji is straightforward.
Now Rediffusion's voice is a burden, and shareholders all want to sell it.
He is no exception.
"Thank you, Mr. He."
After thanking him, Chen Shixian hung up the phone.
Now, to everyone, Rediffusion is a mess, a piece of shit, tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away.
But for him, Li is a hot commodity.
According to his later memories, Rediffusion was later picked up by Qiu Degen, renamed ATV, which gathered a group of capable people and revived and flourished.
It has produced many popular programs, with skyrocketing ratings, crushing TVB many times.
TV programs such as "Heroes of the East", "My Date with a Vampire" and "Across the World" are deeply loved by the audience.
Variety shows such as "Unguarded Tonight", "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" and "Miss Asia Pageant" are also very popular.
Not to mention reproducing these shows.
Even if Chen Shixian were alive in later generations and had watched so many wonderful programs and TV dramas, any one of them would be enough to shock everyone.
Variety shows, TV dramas, entertainment, news programs...
With so much good stuff and so much creativity, it completely blows away the current Hong Kong entertainment industry.
It is definitely a cross-era existence.
The basic structure of ATV, all its resources and talents were readily available after they were acquired.
With just a few tweaks, it's up and running.
By then, we will acquire some newspapers, periodicals, and cinemas, and build a Hong Kong media empire.
…
At the junction of the Arsenal and Hennessy Road, Xixin Building, Rediffusion Television Building, top floor, Richard's office.
Richard is the spokesperson for the Murdoch family in Hong Kong Island.
The Murdoch family also has a certain status in the media industry in the United States. At the beginning, Murdoch founded Rediffusion, and later his son Kyle came to Hong Kong Island and founded Rediffusion Radio.
In 1957, after obtaining a license, Cable Television was launched, becoming the first television station in Hong Kong Island and the first television station in a Chinese region in the world.
At that time, it was still the same as when I was in the Eagle Party, with pay television, and it was only changed to free television 73 years later.
Now in power is Kyle's son, Richard.
It is said that wealth cannot last for more than three generations. After Richard took over ATV, its assets kept shrinking and ATV's ratings continued to decline. It has now been surpassed by Wireless, or TVB, and is even inferior to the up-and-coming SNK.
In addition to the turbulent times, negotiations have already begun, and the Murdoch family is considering that from their perspective, Hong Kong Island will have to be returned to China sooner or later.
It would be a wise move to sell off assets in Hong Kong Island and return to China for development.
So, Richard released the news that he would sell his shares in ATV.
"Mr. He, tell Mr. Chen Shixian that we'll meet at the Peninsula Hotel at 10 a.m. tomorrow."
Richard hung up the phone with He Yuji, in a good mood and with a smile on his face.
I can finally get rid of this unprofitable burden. I’m in such a good mood.
He pressed the intercom button with a beaming look on his face: "Lisa, come in for a moment."
Soon, Lisa, tall, plump, blonde, with blue eyes and a perky butt, walked in with a briefcase in her arms.
"Boss, what can I do for you?"
"Please change my schedule. Tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock, I will meet Mr. Chen Shixian from Chuangshi Real Estate at the Peninsula Hotel to discuss the acquisition."
Lisa picked up a pen and wrote on the memo. Halfway through, she looked up with a puzzled look in her eyes: "But, Boss, you have an appointment with Mr. Qiu Degen from Far Eastern Bank tomorrow morning to discuss the acquisition, right?"
"Let's get together!"
Richard smiled slightly, took Lisa in his arms and put her on his lap: "This way, Li will be more popular and the price can be raised better."
"The more people, the better. The highest bidder wins!"
"When the time comes, call them together and have a good talk."
Lisa suddenly realized and said coquettishly: "Boss, you are so bad."
“Is this the first day you knew this?”
Richard took out some soft bread and fed it to Lisa's mouth, stuffing it full. His eyes were sinister. "I have something worse."
Lisa was choked to death. At this time, she was more eager to drink white milk, so she didn't hear what Richard was saying at all.
…
The Peninsula Hotel, a Hong Kong-style restaurant on the 15th floor, in a private room.
"Mr. Chen, this is Mr. Qiu Degen, the chairman of Far Eastern Bank."
"Mr. Qiu, there's no need to introduce Mr. He. You two know each other."
"This young and promising man is the owner of Chuangshi Real Estate and Umbrella Security Company, Mr. Chen Shixian."
Richard, with his big foreign secretary, introduced the two parties with a smile on his face.
Qiu Degen raised his thick black and white eyebrows slightly and looked Chen Shixian up and down.
This handsome guy has been very active in Hong Kong Island recently.
In a short period of time, it has involved many industries, including real estate, transportation, entertainment, hotels, and security, and has done considerable business.
Now he is working with Ho Yu-kee to develop walled villages and come up with a 10 billion yuan plan.
Still quite capable.
Sitting in their position, they all keep their eyes and ears open, and of course they have heard of outstanding young people like Chen Shixian.
Today, he came to discuss the acquisition of Rediffusion Television. Richard asked Chen Shixian to come over, and it seemed that they were going to conduct a bidding.
This is normal in the business world.
If we do this, the acquisition will not be smooth. If there are competitors, we will have to pay a higher price to acquire it.
He was confident that he could get 500 million for Rediffusion, which had previously been ignored.
Now that a competitor has emerged, I’m afraid the price will be raised and things will be ruined.
Qiu Degen narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Chen Shixian with unfriendly eyes.
Chen Shixian remained calm and also looked at Qiu Degen.
The other person was not tall, slightly fat, with big bags under his eyes, thin lips tightly pursed, and sharp, aggressive eyes.
This old man is a little older than He Yuji, but he is not as well maintained as him.
Unlike the Ho Yu-kee family inheritance, Qiu Degen is a representative figure among the Hong Kong Island's wealthy who started from scratch.
He was born in a family of small traders. Due to poverty, he dropped out of school after junior high school and later worked as a handyman in a movie theater.
At the age of fifteen, he saved money to rent a movie theater called the Metropolitan. Later, he found that the city was only interested in newly released movies, and if the attendance of new films was not high, he would lose money.
So they turned their attention to the backward villages at that time and played some old movies. As expected, they were very popular and the attendance rate was very high.
In ten years, he opened more than ten cinemas in Sha Tin, Tai Po, Fanling, Yuen Long and other places in the New Territories, becoming the newly emerging "cinema king" in the New Territories.
Later, the money was used to make more money, and village banks were established based on villages and towns, and thus Far East Bank was established.
The scope of his business is getting bigger and bigger. He has investments in banks, real estate, securities, tourism, food, flour, hotels, warehouses, theaters, and newspapers. His business is very huge.
This time, at Richard's dinner party, I met Qiu Degen. Needless to say, he was definitely here to buy ATV.
After Richard's introduction.
Qiu Degen didn't even say hello. With an unhappy look on his face, he snorted coldly, walked past Chen Shixian arrogantly, and sat down.
He said unhappily, "Mr. He, I haven't seen you for a long time. Not only are you good at real estate, but I didn't expect that you are even better at matchmaking."
This is a sarcastic remark, which means that He Yuji is meddling in other people's business.
"There are so many abilities you haven't thought of."
He Yuji held a cigar in his hand, looking very dignified. He glanced at Qiu Degen coldly, not being polite at all: "But you, after so many years, your mouth hasn't changed at all, it's still so stinky."
The two had some conflicts in the business world before. Qiu Degen came from a wild background and didn't do things very carefully.
He Yuji didn't think much of him, so naturally his words were not very pleasant.
Don’t think that these wealthy people and bigwigs are all polite when they sit together.
Sometimes when they quarrel, they are more aggressive than the nanny and the curses are even more unpleasant.
Qiu Degen's face darkened, and he looked unhappy. He said in a tough manner: "He Yuji, I won't tell you about those things."
"If this young man you brought with you insists on competing with me, you'd better think about your own worth."
"It seems that Mr. Qiu thinks I am just a minor character."
Chen Shixian smiled self-deprecatingly at He Yuji.
Then he turned around suddenly, staring at Qiu Degen like a man-eating tiger: "If you underestimate the enemy, you will pay the price."
This look made Qiu Degen feel very uncomfortable. He looked away and said loudly in Hong Kong dialect, which Richard could not understand:
"Let me make it clear, I will definitely take over ATV!"
"I can afford the price!"
Qiu Degen was very tough and refused to back down. He had no reason to be afraid of a young man.
Now that he is older, he wants to fulfill his dream from his youth, take over ATV and make a big splash.
Even his sons opposed it, but they couldn't stop him, let alone Chen Shixian.
What’s the cost? The worst that can happen is just a few more cents. Qiu Degen can afford it!
"I hope you won't regret it then!"
Chen Shixian smiled slightly, his eyes were cold, he slowly stood up, turned his head and said to He Yuji: "Mr. He, it seems that your kindness will be wasted today."
He Yuji waved his hand to indicate that everything was fine. He also stood up and said goodbye to Richard.
"Mr. Chen, there is a saying in China that harmony brings wealth. Give me some face, sit down and talk slowly!"
Richard mumbled something and stopped Chen Shixian.
Originally, he was quite complacent, thinking that by creating a bidding situation between the two parties, he could sell Rediffusion for a good price.
Now, Chen Shixian has left. How can we play?
"Sorry, Mr. Richard, when doing business, sincerity is the key, not face."
"Your face is not that big!"
Chen Shixian said this rudely, pushed Richard aside, and strode out.
Baozhu followed Chen Shixian, looked at Richard with contempt, and left without looking back.
He Yuji patted Richard on the shoulder and said, "Richard, there is an old Chinese saying, 'You will end up making things worse if you try too hard.'"
Richard was confused for a moment; his little trick had absolutely no effect.
I also found a potential customer.
Now, we can only focus on Qiu Degen, and this way, we may be able to lower the price.
Chen Shixian, He Yuji and their group left the private room. Qiu Degen could not hide his pride on his face.
You are sensible and know when to retreat. You are smart!
Soon, Qiu Degen and Richard started negotiating the price.
In the end, after much back and forth, they bought 61% of ATV's shares for 500 million yuan.
On the other side, in the Rolls-Royce, Baozhu held the steering wheel with both hands and looked through the rearview mirror at Chen Shixian, who had a calm expression on his face.
"Brother Xian, giving up like this is not like you!"
After holding it in for a long time, Baozhu couldn't help but say.
"You know me so well now, it seems that you can't stay!"
Chen Shixian said seriously.
"No, Brother Xian, please spare my life. It will still be useful to me."
Baozhu pretended to be horrified and laughed, then asked seriously, "Brother Xian, as soon as we leave, that old man named Qiu will definitely negotiate the acquisition with the foreigners."
"Once the contract is signed, won't we have no chance?"
Chen Shixian sat back on the sofa in the back row and asked, "If I stay, will I have a chance?"
Once he started competing with Qiu Degen for Lili, he would fall into Richard's trap.
In this case, even if Rediffusion is finally acquired, the cost will be far beyond expectations.
Need to buy it at a high price.
It will only benefit Richard.
Instead of fighting on the spot, it is better to retreat in order to advance.
Let Qiu Degen be the vanguard, and when he takes the trouble to negotiate a good price and buys Rediffusion, it will be much easier to snatch food from him.
By then, Qiu Degen will only be making wedding clothes for Chen Shixian, and his efforts will be in vain.
"How do you rob?"
Baozhu continued to ask questions.
It was not easy for Qiu Degen to take Li away from him.
After all, the other party is also a well-known and powerful figure.
You can't just rob them openly.
This is not robbing a bank, the problem can't be solved simply and violently. This is buying shares.
"Of course, we'll have to use some extraordinary means."
Chen Shixian raised the corners of his mouth, looking confident, and smiled mischievously: "I heard that Qiu Degen is very fond of horse racing, and has raised several good horses, which he treasures very much."
"There is also the Far East Bank under his name, which has branches all over the villages and towns. With such a large business, do you think there is any problem of tax evasion?"
"Go ahead, check him out and give him a surprise."
Baozhu looked sly, and instantly became alert: "OK, I understand!"
