Of course, there is one final reason, which is that he currently does not have a suitable manager who can take over Xiangjiang Hotel.

Although he owns the Mandarin Oriental Hotel and has many experienced hotel senior managers, the Mandarin Oriental is now expanding outwards, and he will definitely not be able to send so many people to take over the entire Xiangjiang Hotel in a short time.

If you want to eliminate the influence of the Kadoorie family on Xiangjiang Hotel, you must clean it from top to bottom.

Although the Xiangjiang Hotel has only a few decades of history in Xiangjiang, its predecessor, the Shanghai Hotel, was actually founded by the Kadoorie family as early as 1866.

However, due to the war in the early years, the Kadoorie family had no choice but to move from Shanghai to Xiangjiang, so the Shanghai Hotel was renamed the current Xiangjiang Hotel.

In other words, if you include the predecessor of Shenghai Hotel, Xiangjiang Hotel has been run by the Kadoorie family for more than a century. Xiangjiang Hotel is the business card of the Kadoorie family, and the Kadoorie family is also the spiritual symbol of Xiangjiang Hotel.

The influence of the Kadoorie family on Xiangjiang Hotel was not formed overnight, but was accumulated over many years. Why did the Liang family, as the major shareholder of Xiangjiang Hotel, not replace it? Why did the shareholders of Xiangjiang Hotel know that the Kadoorie family was conservative?

The operation made the hotel's market value far lower than its actual value, but it still helped the Kadoorie family drive away the Liu and Lin families?

All these illustrate one truth, that is, the influence of the Kadoorie family on Hong Kong Hotel cannot be easily eliminated by changing the major shareholder or boss.

If we want to completely eliminate the influence of the Kadoorie family in Hong Kong Hotel, we must carry out a personnel purge, but in that case, it is uncertain whether Hong Kong Hotel can maintain its number one position.

After all, the quality of a hotel comes from the customer experience.

The most magnificent is not necessarily the best.

There are so many high-end hotels in Xiangjiang. In terms of decoration, is there really no one better than the Peninsula Hotel under Xiangjiang Hotel? I’m afraid not necessarily!

Therefore, after much deliberation, Yang Chen felt that the hotel business under Xiangjiang Hotel should be kept as it is, let the Kadoorie family continue to operate Xiangjiang Hotel, and make Xiangjiang Hotel and Mandarin Oriental the two well-known hotels under the Yang Family Group.

With the support of Michael Kadoorie, the next board meeting went surprisingly smoothly for Yang Chen. Yang Chen used the average share price of Xiangjiang Hotel in the previous year before the stock market crash as the purchase price.

Faced with the fair price offered by Boss Yang, other shareholders did not jump out to smear Boss Yang's face, and they all sold their shares.

Boss Yang was able to purchase their stocks at the average price of the previous year, which is absolutely conscientious. You must know that after the stock market crash, the share price of Xiangjiang Hotel fell by more than 40%.

The economic impact of the stock market crash has had a great impact on the development of the hotel industry. If the market economy is good, hotel performance will be good. If the market economy is bad, hotel performance will definitely decline.

According to Yang Chen's purchase price, Xiangjiang Hotel's stock price has now reached a premium of more than 40%, which is only a little lower than before the stock market crash.

However, before the stock market crash, due to the intervention of Liu and Lin's family, the share price of Xiangjiang Hotel was raised a lot, so from Boss Yang's point of view, he did not lose money.

If Yang Chen had purchased it at this price at another time, the shareholders might not agree, but now during the stock market crash, at a special time, everyone is watching the stocks in their hands fall again and again, and everyone will have fluctuations in their hearts.

Now it is rare for Mr. Yang to realize that he has no conscience and has not deliberately lowered the price. Naturally, everyone happily takes the money home.

evening

The news of the change of ownership of Xiangjiang Hotel was immediately publicized as a number of shareholders and representatives left.

When the mainstream media heard the news that the Xiangjiang Hotel had changed hands, they immediately changed their focus and replaced the negative news about Li Chaoren and Liu with the news about Boss Yang.

Compared to Li and Liu, Boss Yang is obviously more popular. Even the Oriental Daily published news about the change of ownership of Xiangjiang Hotel in the evening.

The mainstream media no longer clings to Li Chaoren and Da Liu. Instead, Li and Liu, who were overwhelmed and breathless, breathed a sigh of relief, and their gratitude to Yang Chen was beyond words.

surface.

Of course, if the two of them knew that all this was done by Boss Yang, they would definitely greet his eight generations of ancestors fiercely, instead of crying with gratitude now.

Today, the listed company owned by the two people has experienced another plunge. The stock price and market value can be described as terrible. The value of the two people has also shrunk significantly, and they no longer have the high-spiritedness they used to have in front of others.

The dark background of the two men has been exposed. Naturally, the Independent Commission Against Corruption cannot allow public opinion to ferment and remain indifferent.

Taking advantage of the diversion of public attention, the Independent Commission Against Corruption dispatched troops to invite the two big bosses to the ICAC building for tea while minimizing the impact.

The Independent Commission Against Corruption is still very cautious when dealing with influential and wealthy people like Li Chaoren and Da Liu. The matters between these two people are both big and small. They handle the problems well. So hello, hello, everyone.

, if the problem is not handled well, then the Independent Commission Against Corruption will have no choice but to formally investigate.

Once the Independent Commission Against Corruption is officially involved, Li and Liu will have a big problem. Is the big boss's butt clean these days?

In Xiangjiang, no one, no matter whether they are British or Chinese, dares to pat their chest and say they are clean.

However, it is easy to punish two people, but if one incident affects the whole body and puts everyone in Hong Kong's Chinese capital tycoons at risk, then the trouble will be big.

If we let it go, we will inevitably be distrusted by the media and the public. After the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, we gradually improved everyone's bad impression of the government. The results are hard-won, but not everyone can destroy it.

No matter if you are just showing off or doing something else, you must show your attitude and let the outside media and the public see it.

At the time when Li and Liu were invited to have tea, Boss Yang also happened to take Xue Yufei to Youde's residence for the banquet.

Speaking of this governor, Yang Chen used his golden finger for the first time.

Youde was supposed to have died of a heart attack last year, but on a whim, Yang Chen asked him to go to his own hospital, where several Chinese medicine doctors helped him check his body.

In the end, the governor didn't know whether to believe Boss Yang or a few old Chinese medicine doctors. Later, he followed the instructions of several Chinese medicine doctors and tried his best to improve his living habits and receive physical conditioning.

In this way, this boss miraculously passed through the life-and-death test and is still alive today. This was something Boss Yang did not expect, and it can be regarded as an unexpected surprise.
