When He Shanheng heard this, a gleam of light flashed in his deep eyes.
I secretly admired in my heart: This boy's talent and ability are beyond the reach of other students, and he will eventually achieve great things.
Then he said straight to the point:
"Xiaoxuan! I won't hide it from you anymore. I'm sure you know it well."
"Hang Seng Bank will indeed take a major step forward, which is to break away from HSBC's control and embark on an independent development path."
"Thank you for reminding Guowei last time. We have now contacted Huaxia Bank."
"They also promised to lend us a helping hand. Hang Seng Bank will soon face an unprecedented crisis."
"The success or failure of this incident will determine the final fate of Guowei and me. Right now, we are all unsure."
"After all, HSBC has been standing in Hong Kong for over half a century. Its influence is so deep-rooted and so stable that no one has ever dared to resist it."
"I have witnessed your intelligence and talent. You are a leader among the younger generation in Hong Kong."
"No one can compare to you, so I hope you can join the Hang Seng Bank family and let us become a real family."
As soon as the words fell, Li Guowei beside him immediately took over the conversation solemnly and said:
"As long as you can come, you will be the head of the investment department with an annual salary of 10 million Hong Kong dollars."
"As long as you lead an investment project within Hang Seng Bank, 5% of the profits will belong to you."
"At the same time, as long as you meet the performance and service requirements, we will provide you with Hang Seng Bank shares with a total value of 1 million. What do you think?"
After hearing this, Mo Zhexuan's hand holding the teacup trembled involuntarily, and his face was full of surprise.
Because the conditions are so generous, just based on the annual salary of 10 million Hong Kong dollars, it is enough to beat all the working emperors in Hong Kong.
Later in 1995, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange required listed companies to disclose the top five highest annual salaries.
Topping the list is David Li, CEO of Bank of East Asia, with an annual salary of HK$18 million.
The second is Peng Zelun, chairman and general manager of First Pacific Bank, with an annual salary of 14.5 million yuan.
The third is Jardine Matheson chairman, Sir John Swire, with an annual salary of 12.5 million yuan.
Fourth is First Pacific Bank executive director Ye Xunda, with an annual salary of 11.5 million yuan.
Fifth place, Lu Zongli, Chairman and President of Honglu Industrial, 11 million yuan.
This list was not published until more than ten years later, and the fact that the other party can now offer an annual salary of 10 million Hong Kong dollars and other favorable conditions is enough to prove their integrity.
To be honest, if Mo Zhexuan was not a reborn person, he would have nodded and agreed long ago.
But now, as a reborn person with aspirations, how could I become a worker living under someone else's roof?
No matter how high the annual salary is, what does it matter if he becomes a working emperor? He is still a subordinate who can be summoned and dismissed at will by others. Wouldn't it be better for him to be a boss?
Besides, the prerequisite for the other party to offer such favorable conditions is to wait until Hang Seng Bank is out of the control of HSBC Group.
This is equivalent to a huge lottery ticket that has not been drawn yet, and the result will not be known until the drawing.
As one of Hong Kong's quasi-central banks, HSBC Group still firmly holds more than 51% of Hang Seng Bank's control, so its chances of winning can be said to be 100%.
Although He Shanheng and others have the management rights and have now brought in Huaxia Bank as a backer, the probability of success is only 50% at most, and it all depends on whether HSBC will compromise.
"Uncle He! Uncle Li! I appreciate your kindness, but I don't like being constrained. I want to have my own business, so I'm sorry."
"Mr. Ho! I've said it before, young people all want to have their own business, just like when you founded Hang Seng, so let's not force it!"
Li Guowei was not surprised when Mo Zhexuan refused.
After several contacts, I already understood that he was a person with strong opinions and ideas, and he would never be willing to work for others.
"Xiaoxuan! Since you don't want to join Hang Seng Bank, I won't force you, but I hope you can become a shareholder of Hang Seng Bank."
"When Hang Seng was listed in 1972, the number of shares issued was 10 million. Over the years, the number of shares has been increased to 20 million through share expansion and capital increase."
"HSBC holds at least 10 million shares, and several of our senior executives hold around 6 million shares."
"Hong Kong investors still hold 4 million shares. Hang Seng Bank will soon be plagued by a series of negative news reports, and perhaps even experience a repeat of the 1965 bank run."
"By then, Hang Seng Bank's stock will undoubtedly plummet. This is an opportunity, and I hope you can seize it. It can also be considered as a way to repay your kindness in telling us about the Carrian Group last time."
"If Guowei and I get what we want this time, I hope we can work even more closely together and become allies for mutual success."
He Shanheng then put forward his second plan. If he could invite the other party to join, that would be the best. If he couldn't invite them, he would try his best to make friends with them.
Although the other party is a newcomer now, its future prospects are limitless. HSBC can support the charter king and achieve mutual success, and Hang Seng can also help Mo Zhexuan and move towards glory together.
"Thanks for the reminder, Uncle Ho! It's my honor to be a shareholder of Hang Seng Bank."
"I believe you will achieve what you wish for, and I assure you that no matter how big my business becomes in the future, Hang Seng Bank will always be my partner."
Mo Zhexuan looked at the gray-haired He Shanheng with great admiration.
It's no wonder that with such a broad mind and vision, he was able to achieve such a great success.
It makes you feel appreciated without appearing awkward, but instead makes you feel very guilty inside.
This is what it means to be a real human being.
The three of them chatted for a while, and then Mo Zhexuan said goodbye.
"This boy is truly incomparable in wisdom and strategy, and is incredibly talented. He will definitely have a place in Hong Kong's business world in the future."
"It's just that he rose to prominence a little late. Now, almost every industry in Hong Kong has already formed a monopoly. It won't be easy to break through the obstacles of those old foxes!"
He Shanheng stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the crowds of people downstairs and sighed.
"The same is true for us at Hang Seng. Only by breaking through the obstruction of the behemoth HSBC can we truly soar into the sky."
Li Guowei looked at the dark clouds in the sky with a serious expression.
"No matter what the outcome, we have to launch the action now. Let's officially start the action next month! I hope HSBC will compromise!"
"Okay! I'll arrange it right away. I believe victory will be on our side..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Guowei left the office, ready to strictly implement the plan, with a desperate spirit and a heroic feeling of facing death with indifference.
