613 Pour tea and apologize(1/2)
He Yihai spent HK$57 million to purchase a total of 18% of the equity of "China Bus" from New World Development, bringing the total equity to 39%, triggering a comprehensive acquisition clause.
The contemporary helmsman of China Bus, "Yan Jielin", is trying to bring in Cheung Kong and Sun Hung Kai Group to engage in a takeover battle to retain the Gan family's actual control over China Bus.
Cheung Kong and Sun Hung Kai, two major companies, received the news that Yihai Group had reached a cooperation with New World Development and gave up their plans to participate in the acquisition war.
In the end, Yihai Group spent another 100 million to sweep goods, obtained 73% of the equity of "China Bus", and fully took over the "China Bus Group".
The "China Bus Group", which has been specializing in bus lines in Hong Kong Island for 64 years, announced a change of government. The Yan family only held 13% of the shares and retired to the bottom. The China Bus Group was merged into Yihai Bus Group and became an independent subsidiary of Yihai Group.
enterprise.
New World Development immediately started to acquire "Citybus" and spent HK$50 million to purchase Citybus. One month later, Citybus merged into Yihai Public Transport Group and acquired 11% of the equity of Yihai Public Transport. In just two
All buses in Hong Kong Island will be replaced with the logo of "Yihai Bus" in September.
Li Jiacheng saw the relevant news in the "Business Daily" and couldn't help but sigh: "Yihai Group has extended its tentacles into another area of people's livelihood."
To master one area of people's livelihood is to master an inexhaustible financial resource; to master one area of people's livelihood is to master a city.
Of course, the earliest areas of people's livelihood will be divided up by vested interests. However, urban development will change with the times, and the concept of people's livelihood will also change.
The earliest ones were salt, iron, grain, and oil, then water, electricity, coal, gas, and later ships, trucks, docks, taxis, etc.
Originally, it was a long-term development route to seize the cake of British capital and develop people's livelihood fields. Now that there is an additional predator on this route, Li Jiacheng began to reflect.
"Go north!"
"Must go north!"
"This is the last chance to make a big difference." He secretly decided: "Since Zhang Guobin has followed my path, I will follow his path and donate a sum of money to test the waters in the mainland."
"Put money into mainland China to purchase assets and invest in new companies."
"Well... let Ah Ju bring the money to the Pearl River Delta first to have a look." Although he has good connections in the mainland, he mainly obtained them through his status as a Hong Kong businessman.
The amount of investment in the mainland itself is not very large. Betting on the mainland is a new policy, and it is also a plan that will be considered only after the reform has achieved significant results in recent years.
After all, Li Jiacheng is very afraid of the mainland and is afraid that all his investments will be wasted.
A single change in policy could wipe out everything. Having said that, as a speculator, Li Jiacheng saw many speculative opportunities in the mainland.
The business world is unpredictable every day.
Zhang Guobin was still wearing a suit and smoking a cigar: "Huh..."
"Replace all the senior executives in the bus company who are related to Gui Lao, let the group's team take over the management, and sort out all the accounts."
"If there is any misappropriation of public funds or unknown expenditures, give them a week to return the stolen goods, otherwise they will be sent to Stanley, and they will continue to entertain them when they arrive in Stanley!"
Ma Shiming's heart froze and he replied loudly: "Yes, boss!"
The Yihai Group has already made preparations to take over the management of the bus company, and can take office in one sentence to implement the big boss's rectification plan.
Yihai Public Transport Group is a brand new team that governs two major companies, CMB and Citybus.
In the future, there may be opportunities to open more dedicated lines, or to acquire Kowloon Bus, which will fall under the business scope of Yihai Bus.
When a company has management problems, there will inevitably be a large amount of misappropriation of public funds. Taking over the company will definitely require an audit of the accounts.
This time, Zhang Guobin basically laid off all senior management, leaving only middle managers and low-level drivers.
The most valuable things of CMB are its franchise license plates, drivers, vehicles, stations and parking lots.
….
"Bing Ge!"
"Shen Xin wants to see you."
At this time, Li Chenghao opened the door and walked into the office and said loudly.
Zhang Guobin nodded: "Okay!"
That night.
Central.
Lu Yu Tea House.
Shen Xin was wearing a suit and glasses, cupping his fists and saying, "I haven't seen Mr. Zhang for three months, and his demeanor is getting more and more impressive. Come on."
"Please take a seat."
In the box.
Zhang Guobin sat down with a smile, tapped the table with his fingertips, and felt a little satisfied when he saw Shen Xin lifting a teapot and pouring tea and water himself.
"Mr. Shen."
"polite."
Shen Xin put down the teapot and said implicitly: "I told you last time that I came to apologize to you in person. This cup is my apology."
He stood up and left his seat, walked closer to the table, and picked up the wine glass with both hands.
"Please have tea with Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Guobin smiled and shook his head: "Boss Shen is very polite."
"like me."
"I'm not usually very polite." He took the cup, shook his head slightly and blew out the air for a moment. Seeing the tea soup rippling, he took a gentle sip of tea and lowered the cup.
Shen Xin breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you Zhang Sheng for the compliment."
Zhang Guobin raised his hand and asked him to go back.
"Boss Shen, we have been friends since we have worked together for many years. What happened last time we came to Xiangjiang is in the past and I won't mention it."
"Just pretend it didn't happen."
Shen Xin returned to his position, pushed up his glasses, pretended to express his emotion, and said, "No way."
"I don't even dare."
"When Mr. Zhang got angry, he cut off oil for two months. The price of industrial diesel in the four coastal provinces doubled. The oil in the warehouse could no longer hold up after a week."
"Later, I found several private oil factories to supply them. But where can I find the Hong Kong government's high-quality red oil for privately refined diesel? Many factories directly said they don't use it, saying that using it will damage the machines and make them even more incurring losses!"
His expression became serious: "Now our family is almost out of food, and the prices of many industrial products have risen, which has directly affected people's livelihood."
"Someone points their nose at me and scolds me. I have to come to Xiangjiang to beg you."
"I can't stand it anymore."
Zhang Guobin opened his eyes slightly, picked up the chopsticks, and said, "It's like this!"
"I'm sorry, Boss Shen, I really didn't mean to drag you down. I just bought two companies and I'm so busy that I'm dizzy."
He picked up a piece of cold fungus and put it into his mouth to enjoy it. At the same time, he said: "The company has been busy since its establishment. You know, I am not just a red oil business."
"Quack, quack." Chewing black fungus: "I never thought that red oil is so important to you, it's only been two months."
"However, I haven't given up on opening up the joints. Don't worry, the oil will be sent across the sea in two days."
Shen Xin raised his teacup and said solemnly: "Replace wine with tea!"
"I'll give you a toast."
Zhang Sheng raised the tip of his chopsticks and waved it: "Forget it."
"Boss Shen, have you been in a lot of trouble lately?"
Shen Xin put down the cup and frowned: "Zhang Sheng, what do you say?"
"As far as I know, the police are already investigating your drug factory. If you ask me, you should either move the factory abroad or stop working."
"Really." Zhang Guobin lowered his head, quickly ate his rice with a pair of chopsticks, and said while eating: "You won't die if you make less money, but you will die if you make more money!"
Shen Xin looked thoughtful: "Thank you Zhang Sheng for reminding me."
Zhang Guobin took out a piece of paper, wiped his mouth and threw it on the table. He stood up and left the table: "Wait for my news about the red oil matter!"
Before leaving, he glanced at the people next to Shen Xin.
After he left, Jiang Cheng said aloud: "Brother, he said he forgot, who are you fooling!"
Shen Xin sneered and said, "It's just a scene."
"He just saw that I was supporting him, so he insisted on supporting me. He insisted that I kneel down and beg him. This time he wins, and I will give him an extra 15% of the profit from the red oil business."
Jiang Cheng said nonchalantly: "When was the agreement reached?"
"I talked to him on the phone before I came to Xiangjiang."
Shen Xin said.
Jiang Cheng nodded.
"In addition, you ask the people from Temple House to stop the factory, clean up the slogans in the village that are harmful to people, and the water must not be drained into domestic water."
Shen Xin pointed at the table and explained word by word.
Jiang Cheng sighed: "It's too difficult, I can only try my best."
