Chapter 210

The largest consortium in Xiangjiang refers to Lin Wei's Micro Industries to be precise, because it has three listed companies, and its comprehensive strength and capital surpass HSBC.

Herzi and Queen's Castle are not among them. They are another circuit - the international circuit.

It was truly positioned as a multinational company from the beginning to the end. At that time, there were not many companies in Hong Kong that could be called international companies, except for HSBC.

Hutchison Whampoa and Kowloon Airlines are different. Although they are both British-owned companies, their equity is particularly dispersed. There are no key family members. Lin Wei took over the control, and there was no resistance from these board members.

Compared with Chen Hengxi, a young man with a dull head, Lin, the richest man who has made a name for himself, is more prestigious.

The first thing Lin Wei did when she came up was to buy back Hutchison Whampoa's shares.

Lin Wei originally only needed to get 30% of the equity to control Hutchison Whampoa, but she still secretly bought 20% in the secondary market. It was not for stability, nor to scare HSBC, or to make a hostile takeover, but mainly It's just too cheap.

Earlier it was 1 yuan, but now it is 3 yuan. This price is too low.

Knowing the value of Hutchison Whampoa, it would be foolish not to buy it.

Originally, when Lin Wei got Hutchison Whampoa, the stock price rose. If this news comes out, it will rise again.

This seems to be the generosity of the richest man Lin, who has always been rich and powerful. At this stage, his approach only applies to her.

Although Hutchison Whampoa is still losing money, this does not prevent the stock price from doubling.

This is the financial market, where bad and good outcomes are very subjective.

Just like people chasing Buffett, I don't care why he buys it, it is definitely right to buy it.

There is a saying that there is no ever-victorious general in the financial market, except Buffett.

So he is a myth, but Shinhwa will not be lucky all his life. He also suffered losses at Wells Fargo, causing his assets to shrink.

Only the company's own true insiders will know whether the news is good or bad.

"If we go by the current situation, it will be difficult for Hutchison Whampoa to get out of its current predicament in the next two to three years."

In order to expand, Hutchison Whampoa bought a lot of properties in 1971 and 1972 when real estate was booming. , a lot of land was acquired. On the one hand, these lands are not valuable now, and on the other hand, funds are needed to develop them. If land prices do not rise, it will be difficult for Hutchison Whampoa to overcome this difficulty.

Hearing Lin Wei's words, everyone was relieved. It had only been two or three years. What they were afraid of was that this situation would never be broken.

It's good to have hope, we can still wait for two or three years.

Seeing everyone's performance, Lin Wei felt like she had a toothache, she was so hopeless.

"Doing business is not like farmers farming, and relying on the weather is not a long-term solution. If the situation is good, you will make a lot of money, but if the situation is bad, you will lose everything. It is difficult to go on for a long time, and no one knows what will happen in the future. "Betting on the right thing and keeping up with the situation can indeed skyrocket, but a company's ability to respond to risks and crises can determine how far a company can go. We are not doing a one-time deal, we are trying to run the company for a long time."

"No. Does Mr. Lin have any good suggestions?" asked a British executive.

Lin Wei turned to look at him, then smiled and asked, "Ask me, do you think I know Hutchison Whampoa better than you?"

When the other party saw Lin Wei's appearance, he immediately stopped talking. Lin Wei was in her late teens and early twenties, and even her smile now exudes a kind of captivating power. This is a temperament that leaders who are often in high positions unconsciously exude.

Lin Wei turned her head, looked at everyone and said: "Hutchison Whampoa's future does not lie with me, but with you. From now on, I will receive your suggestions and feedback without any barriers. On the one hand, it is the company's current problems and management. Above, resource allocation, labor costs, etc., as long as you think it is unreasonable and problematic, you can raise it; secondly, the company's future development plan, whether it is three years, five years, or ten years, as long as it is practical and feasible, and the opinions are adopted The company will provide corresponding rewards. For the best person, I will make an exception and promote this person to become the principal of Hutchison Whampoa. There is no limit on the position or status. All 2,892 employees at the headquarters can participate. "Excluding branch employees. , otherwise, there would be too many people.

After she finished speaking, the conference room became lively.

This proposal is really bold. Does it mean that the cleaners can also give opinions?

What do they, the lower-level employees, know?

Isn't it necessary?

Of course, Lin Wei would not do this for a company with good operating conditions, but Hutchison Whampoa is too chaotic now. This is the fastest way to sort out the problems and sort out all the problems and crux.

Under normal circumstances, due to limitations, ordinary employees can only see the problem in front of them, but the management is different. Lin Wei can at least use this method to know which of them are doing things and which are fishing in troubled waters.

The prerequisite for good employee treatment is not to raise idlers.

Corruption always starts with the management, and these are the people she wants to attack first. The transformation of the second largest foreign company into what it is now cannot be just a bad situation that can be used as an excuse.

...

Lin Wei is sorting out the problems at Hutchison Whampoa here, and Chen Hengxi has also begun to officially start a war with Zhong Wenbai.

Now the Huo family is the key. Mr. Huo doesn't understand casino management. His purpose is to get dividends such as shares. Their gambling and lottery companies have also invested in some hotels, real estate, shipping and other industries, and they also make a lot of profits every year. Zhong Wenbo I had always abided by the gentleman's agreement before. After all, Wang Jin had just been kicked out, and the rest had to be done slowly.

Now Lin Wei stepped in and broke the balance. Zhong Wenbai initially wanted to work with the Huo family to re-formulate the company's rules and regulations to prevent Lin Wei's intervention. However, Lin Wei and the Huo family had a long history, and Zhong Wenbai didn't know about Lin Wei and his boss. Huo said something and the other party was now wary of him.

Now that it was Chen Hengxi, Zhong Wenbai naturally wanted to check this person out. It turned out that he had hotels, real estate and other industries in Macau, which shows that he most likely knows how to operate a casino.

"When Zhong Wenbo originally bid, he promised that 10% of the profits from the casino would be donated to charity in Macau, and 90% would be used for Macau's economic construction. He would not take a penny from the profits of the casino. It was this condition that made the Macau government finally give up the only The license was issued to him, but because of his actions, he completely angered his opponents and faced a pursuit. For a period of time, he was cleared by bodyguards when he came in and out. "

Listening to Chu Aidong's words, Chen Hengxi nodded lightly: "He did. He is really courageous and has the courage to break his wrist."

Chu Aidong smiled and said: "Who would dare to open a casino without some ability? At least he has to be good at both black and white. At the beginning, many people criticized him for being ugly and doing whatever it takes to win. , and some people say he is stupid, and he works for free in the casino, what is he trying to do?”

"He is not stupid," Chen Hengxi said. "He did not say that the money would be given directly to the government, but that it would be used for Macao's infrastructure, industry and commerce. This shows that he has a long-term view. As long as Macao prospers, the hotels, real estate, restaurants, and restaurants he invested in will Only the entertainment, tourism, transportation and other industries can make money."

Chu Aidong nodded approvingly: "When Macau's economy is alive, he can use the casino to obtain relevant resources for himself, and that's not all. This move of his will allow him to open up political and business relationships and provide people with financial resources. If you provide a springboard yourself, it will be easier than others to buy land or want to favor policies in the future."

Chen Hengxi nodded frequently, looking like he had benefited greatly, and then sighed: "This Zhong Wenbai is a powerful person. Opponent."

"You are right to choose the casino. Hutchison Whampoa will not be able to rise in a few years, and it may drag you down, but if you can get the right to operate the casino, the whole of Macau will be yours in the future! You can definitely take a gamble."

Chen Hengxi looked at Chu Aidong: "Thanks to my father for helping me analyze, otherwise it would be difficult for me to make a decision. After all, HSBC has always said that I will surpass Lin Wei and become the real richest man in Hong Kong."

Chu Aidong smiled. , he picked up the tea cup: "You just listened to me? Didn't it be the Miss Lin who haunted you in your dreams who persuaded you?"

Chen Hengxi found him at the beginning and said that he was now faced with two choices and didn't know how to make a decision. Lin Wei wants to exchange the shares of the casino operating rights for Hutchison Whampoa. He wants to listen to his father's opinion because he doesn't know much about casinos.

Chen Hengxi coughed awkwardly, and then explained: "What she said was a bit outrageous. She said that in the future I can earn at least 100 billion in income through the casino. It doesn't sound very reliable, otherwise I wouldn't I came to you because I was really afraid that she would lie to me. This is not the first time. "

Oh?

Chu Aidong paused and looked at Chen Hengxi: "That's what she said?"

"Yes," Chen Hengxi sighed, "Of course I know that the casino makes money, but she is too exaggerated. What is the concept of hundreds of billions? She, the richest man, also But she is only worth tens of billions, but she directly used hundreds of billions to seduce me. It looks like she is cheating me. She does this every time. The conditions she gives are simply irresistible. I was cheated last time. I really don’t dare to believe it this time. If you didn’t agree, I really wouldn’t dare to make this decision.”

Chu Aidong thoughtfully took a sip of hot tea and said softly: “Casinos are indeed more valuable than real estate. There is a future. As long as there are people in this world, there will never be a shortage of gamblers."

He looked at Chen Hengxi and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will help you."

No matter what you say is true or false.

Oriental Industrial is already on its last legs, and it is unknown when it will take off, especially without the skyscrapers, and its assets have shrunk severely. However, the future of the casino is foreseeable.

He also didn't expect that his illegitimate son would be so lucky that he could reach where he is now.

First, he was appreciated by the HSBC executive, and now he got a ticket to the casino. Maybe it was time for him to make a decision.

Chen Hengxi said happily: "If my father is here, then I really won't be afraid at all. They say that if father and son go into battle, there will definitely be a place for our father and son in Macau!"

Boom -

the door of the study room was suddenly knocked open, and Chen Hengxi's words He was drowned out by the sound of the door panel hitting.

"Young Master, I told you that the master is talking about something, why don't you believe me?" The housekeeper stopped in front, "Look, I didn't lie to you, the master really has something to do."

Chu Yinghao looked at him with a gloomy look . The two people in the room sneered: "What are you two talking about? Is there anything I can't listen to?"

Seeing his unkind attitude, Chen Hengxi immediately stood up and stood in front of him to confront him: "What do you want to do? "

Idiot," Chu Yinghao looked at him and said sarcastically, "Are you very proud? I advise you to see his true face as soon as possible, otherwise I will be your fate in the future!

" Chen Hengxi looked at him in confusion, "What else are you dissatisfied with? Father has already given the company to..."

"Ajie..." Chu Aidong suddenly spoke, and he said to Chen Hengxi gently, "You go out and do your work first. I have something to say to Ah Hao."

"What, you've done everything, and you're still afraid of people listening?" Chu Yinghao's face was filled with gloom and his eyes were very scary.

Chu Aidong didn't change his expression, just looked at Chen Hengxi who was full of worry, and said, "Go out, I can handle it here, you don't have to worry."

Chen Hengxi had no choice but to leave with doubts, and the housekeeper closed the door, leaving space for the father and son.

Chu Aidong picked up the tea bowl and said, "I have handed over the company to you. Isn't this what you have always dreamed of?" He said lightly, "Isn't this what you wanted when you imprisoned me in the basement? Now I let you have it. You got what you wanted, why do you act like I owe you?"

"So you admitted it!" Chu Yinghao's eyes seemed to be stained with blood, and he looked at him angrily, "You deliberately emptied the company and left an empty shell. I took all the money I raised into the company. From the beginning to the end, you were playing tricks on me. You were taking revenge on me. What you said before was all a lie to me!"

He took over happily ! When he came to Dongfang Industrial, he thought that Chu Aidong had finally recognized his ability, but when he got it, he discovered that Dongfang Industrial's assets had long been wiped out. He spent a total of 300 million, but ended up with a shell company heavily in debt. Every day What I received were either debt collection calls or company delisting warnings from the stock exchange.

Only then did he realize that Chu Aidong had already planned it, and he just wanted to push himself out and take the blame.

"I didn't say that," Chu Aidong gently pushed the tea bowl and said with a smile, "The most unforgettable time in my life was the time in the basement. I thought at that time, if I go out one day, I will definitely thank these people. , each of you, Lin Wei, Xu Wenshan, and of course you."

He raised his head and looked at Chu Yinghao, showing a kind smile: "My son, I raised him with all my energy, I love him the most, and I love him the most. Eldest son, how can I not thank you properly?" He smiled, but there was a cold light in his eyes.

Chu Yinghao was stunned for a moment, but then he became completely angry: "Why are you pretending to be a loving father? Why do you like me? What you want is just an obedient dog. I should have killed you in the first place. Kill you, just There weren't so many things happening now. I should have listened to my mother and dealt with you earlier, and things like this wouldn't have happened."

He looked at Chu Aidong, his face became extremely ferocious, his eyes were scarlet, and he took a step forward: "I would have done it a long time ago. It's time to kill you!"

"What do you want to do?" Chu Aidong looked at the abnormal flush on his face and asked, "Are you crazy?"

"Haha..." Chu Yinghao laughed twice, taking a step. Step by step, he walked closer to Chu Aidong, "I went crazy a long time ago. When you came out of the basement, when I killed Ah Shao, when you gave me this mess of Dongfang Industrial!"

"You want to do... ..." Before Chu Aidong could finish his words, Chu Yinghao pinched his neck tightly.

"You deserve to die, you deserve to die a long time ago!" Chu Yinghao fell into a state of madness, his eyes twisted, "I'm not having a good time, and you don't want to live either!"

"Let go..." Chu Aidong's face turned red from holding back, and his forehead The veins are bulging!

Chu Yinghao strangled Chu Aidong's neck tightly, his eyes full of anger: "Go to hell!"

...

"Sorry to bother you two police officers," Chen Hengxi led the two police officers upstairs, "Ordinarily this is I should deal with the family scandal behind closed doors, but the things that were lost were my mother’s relics. I really can’t do anything about it. They don’t want to admit it now.

“Have you asked your family about it?” one of the officers asked.

"I've asked them, but they won't admit it even if I take them," Chen Hengxi sighed. "I can't torture them. I can only ask you, Sir Chen, to come and help."

"This is indeed a bit difficult to handle," Officer Chen frowned. He frowned and said, "Take me to you first..."

Bang -

a sudden gunshot interrupted the conversation between the two.

The three of them were stunned for a moment, and the two police officers immediately took out the guns from their waistbands and rushed towards the room where the sound came from.

"Who is in the study?" Officer Chen asked.

"Impossible, father..." Chen Hengxi turned pale with fright and wanted to push the door open, but the police officer next to him stopped him.

Officer Chen took a gun and kicked the door open.

"Get out!" A slightly hoarse voice sounded.

"Father..." Chen Hengxi stood there blankly, looking at Chu Yinghao who was lying on the ground in a pool of blood.

"Don't move, put down the gun!"

Chu Aidong held the gun with his back to them, holding on to the table and breathing heavily. After hearing the sound, he slowly turned around and saw the policeman at the door, and he was also stunned. .

Then his eyes fell on Chen Hengxi, who looked frightened.

At that moment, he finally understood.

...

"You said Chu Aidong killed Chu Yinghao?" Lin Wei was stunned, "How did you do it?"

At such an old age, this was not what she had thought before. She thought that if there was a real conflict, it would be Chu Yinghao who killed Chu Aidong. Well, just like when I killed Chu Yingshao.

This is really unpredictable.

Xu Wenshan didn't know if this debt would be placed on her head. This was indeed something beyond her expectations. A young man and an old man fought one on one and lost. Isn't this really unreasonable?

But the happiest person should be Qin Sixin.

"I was also scared. He hid a gun in the wheelchair. He was obviously prepared." Chen Hengxi took a deep breath. "It's really scary. People like them really don't take human life seriously."

Lin Wei glanced at him. She had never seen anything after dealing with the Gu family. How could she pretend to be innocent?

"In a situation like Chu Aidong's, there is a high probability that he will be released on medical parole, right?"

He has a lame leg, and the prison doesn't like to accept him.

"Then as a son, I naturally have the obligation to 'take care of'," Chen Hengxi said with a smile, "I will definitely take care of him in his old age."

Lin Wei nodded, this matter was completely over, and she did not plan to do it again. Take care.

Without worries, she can do her own thing well.

She handed a piece of information to Chen Hengxi: "This is Haaland's information and team division of labor. The first round of negotiations. On the 18th of this month, you can get familiar with it and see which part you are good at. We need to communicate with each other this weekend." No, touch it first."

Chen Hengxi took it and opened it and was stunned when he saw a long list: "How many people are there in your team?"

"What's wrong with you, two hundred and thirty-six people?" Wei asked.

"Do you need so many people to acquire a shipyard?" Chen Hengxi looked at the names above and was surprised, "Giles, Yuan Guodong, and Song Ye?"

"Isn't it necessary?" Lin Wei asked, "I carefully selected these. The list is an elite team with everything. "

In addition to professional technicians like Gao Qiao and Sun Muyin, as well as negotiation experts, she also specially hired retired British politicians. She used everyone she could use.

At this time, Haaland had a military business. How to spin it off and the form of acquisition were not that simple. She not only had to impress Haaland, but also the British government.

She used all her contacts to build a luxurious acquisition team.

She is bound to win Haaland, and she has dozens of kilograms of information alone.

After getting Harland, she would be eligible to enter the giant cruise ship.

There is no need to wait until 2023, she will build a giant cruise ship belonging to China in the 1970s!
