A few days later.
The share prices of Hutchison Whampoa and Jardine Matheson Land have continued to rise in the past few days and have not fallen due to the investigation into Miracle Group.
On the contrary, the stock price has continued to hit new highs in recent days, from HK$46 per share to HK$175 per share, which has now quadrupled.
After Bao Junyi's previous 50% premium, the stock price has been like a wild horse, rushing upwards, breaking through one new high after another.
At this time, inside the stock trading room of the Miracle Building headquarters.
Bao Junyi looked at the electronic screen and said to Yuan Tianfan, "How many shares have we acquired now?"
"Bao Sheng, our two groups have acquired 45.77% and 46.21% respectively, which has cost us over $800 million."
"Moreover, the share prices of both companies are completely out of control. They are being snapped up by Hong Kong investors. They all believe that Baosheng will succeed in the end, just like the last acquisition of Wharf Holdings."
Bao Junyi smiled bitterly and said, "We can only blame ourselves for having such an obvious style before."
"Bao Sheng, if you like to acquire it, then privatize it. Even the cleaning lady in Hong Kong knows about it."
"Ahem... ahem, that would make it easier to control."
"Mr. Bao, besides us snapping up shares of the two groups, Jardine Matheson and Hutchison Whampoa are also raising the share price to acquire shares."
Bao Junyi was helpless and said cruelly: "Since they like to follow, just raise the price of the two stocks to HK$240 per share."
"In addition, we prioritize the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa shares, which is an indispensable part of our next important territory."
"Mr. Bao, then...how do we arrange for Jardine Matheson Land?"
"We need to make acquisitions, but not too aggressively. We should focus our funds on Hutchison Whampoa."
"Mr. Bao, are you interested in Hutchison Whampoa's shipyards, warehouses, and import trade channels?"
"Haha, Tianfan, your eyes are still as sharp as ever."
"But if we raise the price so high, will it alert the Governor's Office and the local forces of Eagle Country?"
"There's no turning back now. If we want to expand rapidly in Hong Kong, it's only a matter of time before we have to face the local British capital."
Yuan Tianfan looked at Bao Junyi with a firm gaze and said, "Mr. Bao, our Finance Department will do our best!"
"Go declare war!"
......
afternoon.
Major newspapers and periodicals in Hong Kong reported that Miracle Group had once again acquired two British-owned shares at a premium, and the price per share was raised to HK$240.
The news spread throughout Hong Kong in an instant, causing a major earthquake!
When the Hong Kong Stock Exchange opened in the afternoon, the two stocks instantly jumped higher and soared all the way.
At this time, inside the Governor's Mansion.
Governor Murray MacLehose was leisurely drinking coffee and looking at report documents from various parts of Hong Kong.
Suddenly, there was a hurried knock on the door.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
MacLehose frowned and said unhappily, "Come in."
"What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?"
The secretary knew that MacLehose was going to be angry, so he quickly explained, "Mr. Governor, this is bad. You asked me to keep an eye on the Miracle Group, and they've just made another big move."
MacLeho took a leisurely sip of coffee before saying, "What's going on with Miracle Group again?"
"Mr. Governor, Miracle Group has just raised the price of the two groups to HK$240 per share, and this has been published in the media."
“Puff!”
"What? What did you just say?"
"Mr. Governor, Miracle Group has just announced that it will double the price of its shares."
"Fake! What are Li Feng and Liu Deren doing? Aren't they supposed to warn Bao Junyi?"
The secretary said weakly, "Two people came here early last night. Since you were resting, I asked them to go back."
"Did they say anything?"
"Yes, they said everything is fine with Miracle Group, and the search results are still on your office desk."
"Humph! You're all useless. You can't even do this little thing, and you still want to get promoted?"
Ten minutes later, MacLehose had finished venting his anger.
After calming down, he said, "Go contact..."
Suddenly, the ocean-going landline phone rang.
Murray MacLehose motioned his secretary to leave before answering the phone: "Hi, Murray MacLehose, this is Cabinet Minister Jerrod."
"Hello, Mr. Jerrod, the Cabinet Minister. Does the Cabinet have any instructions for Hong Kong?"
"The Prime Minister and Ministers have passed a resolution from the Queen, expressing particular concern about the recent financial and stock market turmoil in Hong Kong and hoping to intervene in the market through political means."
"Also, we must ensure that the Great Eagle Empire's legitimate rights and interests in Hong Kong do not harm the interests of the people of the Great Eagle Empire."
MacLehose's face was gloomy, and he said angrily, "Your Excellency, Minister Jerrod, don't you know that direct political intervention in the economy will disrupt the entire Hong Kong market and even cause foreign capital to flee Hong Kong and the Eagle Country's domestic financial markets?"
"We understand the seriousness of the situation, but the current situation in Hong Kong's financial and stock markets is insane. Stock prices are being driven up like crazy across Hong Kong, and there are even companies that dare to launch a hostile takeover of the listed companies of Great Eagle Empire."
"I've already dispatched officials from the tax department and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to handle the situation. Hasn't the situation deteriorated to the point where direct political intervention is necessary?"
Jerrod understood what he meant and said with a wry smile, "To tell you the truth, the Keswick and Kiddzun families persuaded the Prime Minister and, at a great cost, got the Queen to issue the order."
After hearing this, MacLehose smacked his lips and said, "This...this price is too high, isn't it?"
"You may not know that these two families are not doing well in Eagle Country either. Their political status is constantly declining, and their local income is constantly decreasing. They still rely on the funds from the Hong Kong group to fill the gap."
