Chapter 180:

Haoxin is about to go public, and the employees have heard more or less about it.

It is indeed something worth being happier about when the company becomes better, and it is more honorable to go out and brag about it.

As for listed companies, who wouldn’t take a high look at them?

It will be the same in future generations.

It's just that it doesn't actually have much to do with them.

Everyone's applause was very formal and there was nothing too exciting.

Lin Wei waited for the applause to stop and continued: "The company plans to use 5% of its shares to motivate employees before going public. Ordinary employees have a quota of 500 shares, which increases according to rank, with a cap of 10,000 shares."

"But this is As for option rewards, everyone only has the right to dividends in the first three years. In the fourth year, everyone can buy these stocks at a price of 20 yuan per share. But if someone leaves midway, it will be automatically given up, and the company will take back the stock options. "

"Added here . One point, the issue price we have set is 40 yuan per share. If you think it is not worthwhile, you can give up this right, but the shares cannot be transferred to other people. "

Now when it goes public, everyone usually sells 10 million or 20 million shares. Shares of 60 million shares, such as those of Kowloon Airlines, are generally issued in the later stages.

Only when there is a big bull market will there be high distribution and splitting into small shares.

Lin Wei and the others, like Hang Seng Bank, set the total share capital at 20 million shares.

After Lin Wei finished speaking, the employees couldn't help but start talking, and the entire conference hall instantly became noisy.

Lin Wei's equity plan is not only to mobilize the enthusiasm of employees and have stable and excellent company backbones, but Lin Wei is also afraid that they will all go to stock trading next year.

The 1972 bull market is coming soon.

In the middle of the year, the Hang Seng Index was still over 200, but now it has exceeded 300. By 1972, the stock market skyrocketed, reaching a peak of more than 1,700 points in early 1973, and then plummeted.

When a normal stock index doubles, stocks with better performance can rise 2-3 times, so a stock index of 5-6 times is more than 10 times.

This means that the stock price has increased 10 times in one year. How can ordinary people not go crazy in this situation?

What classes are you still taking?

Lin Wei didn't know how many people would be sitting here by then.

She can't explicitly prohibit employees from trading in stocks. Let's not talk about human rights. She can't even set an example. The boss doesn't allow employees to trade in stocks. It doesn't sound good to say it out loud.

I hope these stocks can attract some people, after all, Haoxin's market value will also rise crazily by then.

Naturally, they can't bear to leave their jobs if they can't bear to part with these stocks.

The 1973 stock market crash was a collective trauma for Hong Kong people. There were many people who went bankrupt overnight. Many people borrowed money to speculate in stocks and finally lined up to go to the rooftop. This is no joke.

As the saying goes, if it were not for this lesson, everyone would not know the risks of the stock market, and Hong Kong's financial industry would not be able to re-establish a new order and develop.

What drives change are often bloody lessons.

Lin Wei bought the piece of land in Causeway Bay in 1967, four years ago.

Four years is a very short time for a company, and a new company does not deserve much attention.

But Lin Wei is a living sign.

Haoxin's shares were snapped up as soon as they were listed.

110 times oversubscribed.

The stock price rose to 62 yuan on the first day.

A week later, newspaper statistics appeared on the market value rankings of listed companies.

There are two copies in total, one of which is the overall ranking of listed companies.

1. HSBC Bank 9.152 billion Hong Kong dollars (UK)

2. Fusheng Group 6.433 billion Hong Kong dollars (UK)

3. Swire & Co. Ltd. 5.018 billion Hong Kong dollars (UK)

4. Hutchison Whampoa 4.545 billion Hong Kong dollars (UK)

5. Hang Seng Bank 4.276 billion Hong Kong dollars (UK) (China)

6. Wheelock & Company 41.76 Hong Kong dollars (China)

7. China Power Group 4.049 billion Hong Kong dollars (UK)

8. Hong Kong Telecom 3.242 billion Hong Kong dollars (UK)

9. Cathay Pacific Airways 3.086 billion Hong Kong dollars (UK)

10. Hong Kong Electric Group 2.809 billion Hong Kong dollars (UK)

11. Kowloon Shipping Industry 2.788 billion Hong Kong dollars (China)

12. Sun Hung Kai Properties 2.25 billion Hong Kong dollars (China).

A total of 12 Chinese-funded companies ranked in the top 12. 12 Chinese-funded companies ranked 4. I have to say, this is very surprising.

If we put this in the past, no one would have made it into the top 12, let alone the top 20. Now this result can be said to be very good.

Hang Seng is a serious Chinese-owned bank with its founder Shan Bo, Wheelock is a foreign bank acquired by Yuan Guodong, Kowloon Aviation is a British-owned enterprise acquired by Lin Wei, and Sun Hung Kai is owned by three real estate tycoons (Kwok, Li, and Feng).

These four companies are now known as the Four Kings of Chinese Capital.

The magazine specifically analyzed the Kowloon aviation industry because it is the one with the fastest-rising market value and is almost in the top ten. You must know that before the crisis, Kowloon's market value was less than 1 billion, and it has been hovering around 700 million. Now it has doubled. It has grown so many times, making it the fastest growing company among all companies. If Fusheng had not lost the Kowloon Aviation Industry, their market value would have been on par with HSBC, and they would have competed to become the largest consortium.

But this list is also very interesting. If we only rank in the top ten, only two Chinese-funded companies are in it.

In order to look better, I decided to rank it in the top twelve.

It can also be seen from the schedule distribution that the Hong Kong City's electricity, communication and other livelihood systems are under the control of British-funded companies. If Lin Wei had not acquired the Kowloon Aviation Industry, there would still be transportation.

The second ranking lists Chinese-funded enterprises separately.

1. Hang Seng Bank 4.276 billion HKD

2. Wheelock & Company 41.76 HKD

3. Kowloon Shipping Industry 2.788 billion HKD

4. Sun Hung Kai Properties 2.250 billion HKD

5. Hang Lung Group 1.925 billion HKD

6. Oriental Holdings 1.732 billion HKD

7. Huo Group 1.656 billion HKD8

, Yunchang Group 1.554 billion HKD9

, Global Shipping 1.377 billion HKD10

, Haoxin Real Estate 1.345 billion HKD11

, Renaissance Shipping Industry 1.034 billion

HKD12, New World Development 878 million HKD

Lin Weiyouxi Chinese-funded enterprises ranked third and tenth.

Global Shipping is Yuan Guodong's shipping company.

Now Yuan Guodong controls a business empire worth more than 5 billion, while Lin Wei barely reaches 4 billion. Looking at it this way, acquisitions are indeed the fastest way to expand.

Lin Wei now becomes the third person under Yuan Gong and Shan Bo.

You know, this is not all of her. She also has Hezi and Cha Lian who have not yet been listed. If they are listed, I am afraid that they will have to reshuffle their cards.

However, Lin Wei does not intend to let Hezi and Cha Lian go through this muddy water. Listing in Xiangjiang will not be conducive to the company's long-term development.

This ranking suddenly made people realize that Lin Wei's current net worth could easily rank among the top ten financial groups in Hong Kong.

In less than 7 years, she has grown into what she is now without even realizing it.

How did she do it?

Nowadays, few people can mention her gender. This reminds many people of Lin Wei's previous words, "It's because I don't stand high enough that you can't see things other than my gender." Now mentioning Although she would still say that this woman was amazing, the underlying meaning was that she had been compared to a special existence.

Every move she makes is now attracting attention.

After Haoxin went public, it received 160 million in financing. Everyone was curious, what would Lin Wei do with the money?

Which industry will you enter next?

"Pay back the money."

Lin Wei held the goblet and looked at the senior bosses across from him with a smile: "I haven't paid off my debt yet."

This is the truth. Haoxin is different from Jiulong Aviation Industry. Their industrial output is stable. Including treasury stocks, there is never a shortage of money.

But Haoxin is different. Haoxin has been pouring money into it, and it will only start leasing it after it is completed, and it will have some rental income.

But their model is to only rent and not sell, so the capital turnover will definitely not be as good as other people's sales, and they are destined to be in debt.

This was also the case with Kowloon Airlines at the time, which kept selling stocks to fill the hole, resulting in a low market value and allowing...Lin Wei to take advantage of the hole.

The same goes for Haoxin. It can only return money to Hang Seng by listing.

It’s just that Haoxin will not imitate the crazy expansion of the Kowloon aviation industry.

Thanks to her relationship with Hang Seng, otherwise she would have to ask Kowloon Aviation to help. Previously, she had thought of letting Kowloon Aviation hold shares in Haoxin. There would be no problem if her companies controlled each other, and it would also prevent them from being targeted. , as a result, the chairman of the Gold and Silver Association came to her directly, thus eliminating this step.

Upon hearing this answer, everyone was stunned and looked at each other.

They all forgot that Lin Wei still owed money to Hengsheng.

Thanks to the chaotic rules of the current securities market, otherwise, even if Lin Wei's company has strength, it will take several years before it can be listed in terms of revenue. Why would Lin Wei be listed on the Gold and Silver Society? It is because the Gold and Silver Society has just been established and the qualification review is not so strict. They need popular traffic companies like Lin Wei to increase their popularity.

There are now three stock exchanges in Hong Kong, and a fourth is expected to be established next year.

At that time, it was really a chaos of demons.

"Haha..." Ye Chengde laughed, "But these old men are so worried. They are all wondering what you will do in the future?"

He is the boss of Yunchang Group and one of the five real estate tigers who has long been famous.

"It's as if you didn't ask." The person next to me joked.

"Really or not," Lin Wei made a look of astonishment, "Just ask me directly, there is nothing to hide, I am at the shipyard every day now, I don't go anywhere, if you guys If you are interested, you can join. I will provide technical support. I feel lonely right now."

A few people shouted, "You are making things difficult for us. We don't even know how to build ships."

"Listen?" He said that Kowloon Airlines bought a lot of stocks. What is Miss Lin's plan?"

Lin Wei said "Ah" and then nodded: "But I also bought Haoxin's stocks, and the rest was just for the money. It's quite distressing to have no place to spend money."

"..."

This is a bit irritating, but you can't say anything. Kowloon Aviation is indeed very rich now.

When Lin Wei repurchased the shares of Kowloon Airlines from Fusheng, this step was too drastic.

I would rather get a loan from the bank than buy it back. I bought it for 10 yuan, but now it has increased to more than 40 yuan, which is more than 4 times the price.

But how could there be no place to spend the money?

Now everyone is thinking of ways to buy land, but Lin Wei has stopped. She previously competed for the old post office, but after losing the bid, she stopped making any moves.

It’s incomprehensible.

Isn’t this idea of ​​listing Haoxin’s stock in the left hand and right hand something that a normal person would do?

These people continued to make insinuations.

Lin Wei had very little communication recently and rarely showed up, so when she appeared, she attracted a lot of attention.

The people around me didn't stop laughing, and their faces were almost frozen with laughter.

In the past, due to her status as a young woman, people were afraid of causing gossip and did not talk to her very much. She was not a very sociable person. She was always lukewarm at banquets. There were many people looking at her, so she took the initiative. There were very few people to talk to.

They wanted Lin Wei, a junior, to take the initiative, but Lin Wei didn't like chatting with these elders unless necessary. Most of them couldn't talk to each other, so they struggled to find topics, and ended up being very embarrassed.

But it's different now.

The data in the magazine speaks for itself. Interest will make people let go of some inherent ideas and reservations.

"So who is the number one Chinese businessman between you and Mr. Yuan now?"

Now someone else is taking the initiative to find the topic, but this question is a bit too provocative.

"Haha, that's right. Does Miss Lin consider Mr. Yuan as her rival?"

Everyone looked at her as they were watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.

Yuan Guodong also has assets other than listed companies, which are difficult to calculate, so it's really hard to say.

Lin Wei held the wine glass, lowered her head and laughed twice, sighed in her heart, and calmed down a little, then raised her head and showed a bright smile: "That should be me. Although Mr. Yuan has higher assets and wider connections than me, He has more friends than me, he is richer than me, and his company is bigger than mine, but there is one thing he can't compare with..."

She paused and said, "I have more face."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then they realized. Then he laughed.

I didn’t ask any more questions.

It makes people say that I am too shameless to joke anymore.

As they chatted, they discovered that Lin Wei was a very easy-going person who spoke softly and softly, and was not as strong as she was described outside.

It’s hard to imagine that she was the one who brought down both Ron and the Governor of Hong Kong.

The higher you stand, the lower your posture is, which is Lin Wei's way of survival.

There was no way before, but now she tries not to offend anyone. Chinese people regard low-key and modesty as a virtue. If you want to have a good reputation, you must learn to pretend and hide your ambitions, so as to eliminate the influence of your previous "powerfulness".

"The number one Chinese businessman?" Zeng Zhifeng looked at the people chatting and laughing across the way, smiled, and said, "Which of the people at the banquet is still Chinese?"

The people around him were stunned.

This is indeed true. The big guys in Hong Kong City who have some wealth are now British citizens, including Yuan Guodong, who was a British citizen ten years ago.

But does becoming a British citizen mean you are British?

Even though they are British nationals, they don’t really regard themselves as British. The feeling of being Chinese has not changed.

With thousands of years of history, this cultural confidence is still there.

Businessmen become British citizens mainly because this status will provide them with more conveniences. Ergang City can have dual nationalities. The extra nationality is like a luxury title and becomes a status symbol.

It's not just British nationals. Looking at the nationality of the people at this banquet, there are also French, Japanese, Portuguese, etc. There are not many people who simply have Xiangjiang ID cards.

Lin Wei is one.

Now the UK doesn't like her very much. It is estimated that even if she applies for naturalization, they will reject her.

But this does not affect her popularity today.

At today's banquet, everyone's theme revolved around the rankings in magazines. This was equivalent to the early Forbes rankings. It was so eye-catching that there were always people around Lin Wei.

Even Wu Ming was trapped by someone and couldn't get to Lin Wei.

There are a few people who have been trying to come forward to chat, but they have been unable to do so. Too many people would be very impolite.

"I said at the beginning that I shouldn't believe Freeman's words, but you guys had to force me to change my mind, otherwise we would still be the ones standing there now." The man looked depressed, and his face was extremely gloomy.

"Don't say that. No one expected this to happen. This was something we all decided together."

"It's you, Kong Jin'an! You came up with this idea. What did you say at the beginning? You said Lin Wei was a liar. After cheating the Gu family in Taiwan, they came to Hong Kong to swindle money. A foreign company like Fusheng is more reliable and will definitely make a lot of money. As a result, where is our money now?"

the man said? Finally, almost excited: "That's 250 million. I can still hear a sound when I fall into the water. But do you think Fusheng is ignoring you now?"

If it hadn't been for a temporary change of mind, the original 240 million would have been 500 million. No, no, with this capital, Haoxin's scale will be much larger. Maybe the old post office will also let Haoxin take over.

What now?

Fusheng was banned from participating in any government-related projects for three years due to its involvement in a bribery scandal.

This resulted in the disappearance of the project they originally cooperated with Fusheng, but Fusheng said that in order to compensate them, they could be allowed to invest in their subsidiaries.

As a result, now that the money has been invested, Fusheng directly diverts the money for other purposes and provides blood transfusions to the head office. They only get a useless 30% controlling stake in the subsidiary.

It is even more impossible to go public, and the company will be left with only a shell.

Seeing this scene, how could he bear it?

He has the desire to kill.

The two were at war with each other.

Another person intervened between them and said to the man: "Are you blaming us now? If you didn't nod what happened back then, no one could force you. Now that you are talking about this, besides pushing the responsibility away, what else can you do?" What's the use?"

"That's because I trusted you back then!"

They were not too far away from Lin Wei, and when she heard the movement, she looked towards them.
