Chapter 213 Kowloon Bus
Seeing that Boss Lei didn't treat him as an outsider at all, Yang Chen touched his nose quite speechlessly.
In other words, every time he meets these big guys, they seem to like to use their seniority to suppress him.
The most terrible thing is that the two have no friendship at first, but the other party acts like he is very familiar with him. Sometimes, it is really annoying.
Fortunately, Yang Chen has been taught to respect the elderly and care for the young since he was a child, and he doesn't care too much about them. In addition, these people take advantage of him and are very easy to talk to.
Thinking about Huo Daheng, the chartered king and his future gambling king father-in-law, it can be said that anyone who treats him as a junior will basically leave some benefits to him in the end.
Now since Boss Lei likes to recognize his nephew so much, Yang Chen will naturally not let go of this rare opportunity.
Yang Chen shook his head and said humbly: "Uncle Lei, this little kid is just a small fight, how can he be as good as you, Uncle Lei?"
After hearing Yang Chen's words, Lei Juekun couldn't help but roll his eyes at him, "You still call this a small fight? Uncle Lei, when I was your age, I didn't have the ability you have.
You quietly acquired Li's TV station and shocked many people's jaws, but you still pretend to be like me."
Seeing that Yang Chen still looked humble and was about to say something more, Lei Juekun waved his hand and said: "Okay, you kid, stop being so humble and tell me if you have something to do. I know you won't date me for no reason.
came out.
I have something to do here and I am busy. I have to rush back after dinner. If you are dawdling, don't say I didn't give you a chance."
Hearing this, Yang Chen couldn't help but feel dumbfounded.
However, since the other party said this, Yang Chen did not hide it anymore and asked directly: "Uncle Lei, I heard some news recently that you have the idea of selling the shares of Kowloon Bus. I don't know whether this is true or not?"
Lei Juekun was not surprised at all when he heard Yang Chen asked about the Kowloon Bus.
"I knew you were here for this matter, but I didn't expect that your eyes and ears are quite good."
After saying that, Lei Juekun stared at Yang Chen with a half-smile, and asked with a smile: "What? Are you also interested in the shares of Kowloon Bus that I hold?"
In other words, with the current performance of Kowloon Bus, even ordinary investors are not willing to hold it, and others should forget about it.
Unless there is a big company that can get Kowloon Bus, ordinary people will rarely take the initiative to acquire Kowloon Bus.
For example, Sun Hung Kai. The biggest headache for Lei Juekun now is that Sun Hung Kai, the second largest shareholder of Kowloon Bus, has been acquiring stocks that have been sold off by investors on the market.
Nowadays, most of his energy is involved in the film career. Faced with Sun Hung Kai's sudden power, he simply can't spare any effort to resist it.
??As Sun Hung Kai held more and more shares in Kowloon Bus, Lei Juekun could not help but have the idea to sell 20% of the shares in Kowloon Bus.
In fact, the business of Kowloon Bus is not big. Even though it has a monopoly on buses in the entire Hong Kong, due to the suppression by the government, Kowloon Bus's annual benefit is actually not high, and its market value is only a few hundred million Hong Kong dollars.
Unlike real estate, the longer people buy it, the more it appreciates.
The most valuable thing about Kowloon Bus is the buses. Routes and so on are all planned by the government and are not owned by Kowloon Bus.
As for a car, everyone knows that although it is not a one-time consumable, its value will only fall from the moment you buy it back, and there is no possibility of it rising.
Moreover, as time goes by, buses will become obsolete, which also causes many bus companies to lose money.
It would be better in the interior. Buses, a popular means of transportation that benefit the people, generally have state support. Even if they suffer losses, the bus companies will not be unable to survive.
Different from the mainland, Xiangjiang is a capitalist society, and it is indeed more difficult for the government to support it.
After all, the more developed a region is, the more benefits its people require, which makes the government's annual expenditures very large.
If you are an enterprise company, it would be great if the government does not restrict your monopoly. What kind of subsidies do you expect the government to give you?
Stop dreaming and go to sleep.
It is precisely because of this that Lei Juekun was so indifferent when he discovered that Sun Hung Kai had acquired the shares of Kowloon Bus.
In addition to the fact that his energy is currently involved in the Golden Princess Cinema Line, there is also the fact that Kowloon Bus is not worthy of his continued investment of so much energy and money.
Yang Chen did not rush to answer Lei Juekun's words, and said with a faint smile: "If Uncle Lei is willing to sell me all the shares in Kowloon Bus, and then help the kid acquire some shareholders who want to sell Kowloon Bus shares,
Let the kid master the Kowloon Bus smoothly.
I can promise that in the future, ATV can share resources with Golden Princess Cinema. Now, Uncle Lei, your Golden Princess Cinema, the only thing it lacks is talent, and ATV can help Uncle Lei make up for this.
As long as Princess Jin and ATV join forces, the ban on Princess Jin by Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest will become a thing of the past."
After saying that, Yang Chen saw that the originally smiling Lei Juekun's face suddenly turned serious, and he knew that his plan was right.
As Lei Juekun continued to invest in the Golden Princess Cinema Line, Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest already felt the crisis, so both parties tacitly began to suppress Lei Juekun's Golden Princess Cinema Line.
If we talk about the two film companies, Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, together they account for at least 70% to 80% of the entire film output in Hong Kong.
Princess Golden was boycotted by two companies, so the film sources were naturally reduced by more than half. Without film sources, the cinema chain was an empty shell.
Although in September last year, the new art city, which will be famous in later generations, was established, water from afar cannot quench the thirst for nearness.
For a theater chain as big as Princess Golden, the film source is definitely not something that one or two movies can support.
For this reason, Boss Lei was so anxious during this period that his lips were blistering.
"What do you think of Uncle Lei's proposal?"
??
Lei Juekun did not answer, but asked Yang Chen: "Can you tell me why you must take the Kowloon Bus?"
??
Seeing this, Yang Chen hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I wonder if Uncle Lei has noticed a new retail supermarket called Carrefour that has appeared in Xiangjiang recently.
To tell you the truth, I just took over those retail stores from HSBC and Uncle Huo and Uncle He not long ago.
The kid’s ultimate goal is to build a large supermarket in Hong Kong. To do this, I need Uncle Lei to open up some new routes on the Kowloon bus.”
The main reason why Yang Chen spoke out without any worries was because the media in Hong Kong had begun to pay attention to Carrefour.
Next, as soon as his popularity passes, the media will dig him out sooner or later.
Rather than waiting for others to report it, it is better to use this to suppress Boss Lei. After all, whether it is HSBC, Huo Daheng or He Gambling King, no matter what the three parties come up with, they can crush Boss Lei.
Now that I have shown the three parties that support me at the same time, as long as Boss Lei is not stupid, he will definitely consider it carefully.
Otherwise, once he refuses, Yang Chen may not be the only one who is offended.
After all, Yang Chen didn't say that Carrefour belonged to him alone. Based on the other party's thinking, he would definitely think that Yang Chen was just a trustee promoted by the three companies.
Although it's just trying to pull off a tiger's skin, it's very intimidating.
