Chapter 180. 1.5 billion loan

Lu Yu Tea House, No. 24 Stanley Street, Central

As a famous restaurant in Hong Kong, Lu Yu Teahouse has always been a dinner canteen in Hong Kong's middle and upper class seats.

No one knew that two people who could stomp their feet in Hong Kong would choose to meet here, and they would actually have breakfast.

In the private room, Bao Yugang and Shen Bi sat facing each other.

First, Chen Bi spoke first: "Bao, you look very bad, I guess you haven't had a good rest recently."

"Ban Shen, you know what happened recently. Jardinet Company is causing trouble in Hong Kong. How can I rest well?" Bao Yugang said self-deprecatingly.

"Indeed, I also think that Jardinei Foreign Company is not authentic," Chen Bi said.

"Ban Shen, I said bluntly that I want to borrow money from HSBC." Bao Yugang said.

"Yes, how much?" Chen Bi said.

"Hong Kong dollars in 1.5 billion!" Bao Yugang said concisely.

"No problem, how much do you want it?" Chen Bi asked.

"Early on the 23rd!" Bao Yugang still said very little.

"Okay, the funds will be admitted to the Global Group account early on the 23rd." Chen Bi said.

"My affairs are over, so let's have breakfast now?" Bao Yugang said with a smile.

"Okay, I've heard that the Zhu Run Shao Shop at Lu Yu Teahouse is delicious. I finally arrived this time, but I have to try it. Pack, you have to treat you!" Chen Bi said with a smile.

"No problem, it should be that the oil-consuming char siu buns here are also delicious, so Shen Daban can also try it." Bao Yugang said.

"Oh, no, Bao, I can't stand the smell." Chen Bi said with a frown.

If someone else is there, you will be surprised that the loan of 1.5 billion was settled by two people in a few words.

In fact, it is not surprising to think about it carefully. Once the battle of Hutchison Whampoa is still HSBC's own business. If Bao Yugang fails in Hutchison Whampoa, HSBC will also suffer great losses.

Secondly, Chen Bi has always believed in his consistent purpose: he has no distinction between Chinese and foreigners in his eyes, only himself, depending on who he supports, which is more beneficial to the development of HSBC.

Bao Yugang has always had business dealings with HSBC Bank and is also a director of HSBC Bank.

Jardine Mahjong has always been regarded as the leader of British-funded foreign banks. A weak Jardine Mahjong is more beneficial to the development of HSBC.

At noon, after receiving financial support from HSBC Bank, Bao Yugang, who had not been asleep almost all night, sat in the conference room of the Global Group headquarters of Prince Building without any fatigue.

In addition to the core members of Global Group, this conference room also has financial advisers - senior staff members of HSBC's wholly-owned subsidiary Huttoli Finance.

Bao Yugang said: "Okay, the meeting has officially begun. Those present are either the core personnel of Global Group or the financial consultant I invited."

"I want to express my position here first. The acquisition war of Hutchison Whampoa is only allowed to succeed, not fail."

"I have received 1.5 billion Hong Kong dollars in support from Chen Bida, HSBC, and the 500 million Hong Kong dollars in funds on our group's books, a total of 2 billion Hong Kong dollars are being carried out for this acquisition."

Afterwards, Bao Yugang did not go to see the surprised expressions of everyone in the conference room, but turned his attention to Ludori CEO Rondeqi and asked: "Mr. Rondeqi, you understand the situation. What price do you think we should pay?"

Rondeqi thought for a while and said, "Our average acquisition price yesterday was 85 Hong Kong dollars per share, while the purchase price proposed by Land Land Group of 100 Hong Kong dollars per share is exchanged for new shares of Land Land Group, and we cannot see the benefits immediately."

"And we are a cash acquisition, and I think we are sure to succeed even if we report the price of Hong Kong dollars."

Bao Yugang thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Mr. Langdeqi, I don't want to delay the battle for too long. The night is long and the dreams are too long. I am afraid that Jardinet Foreign Company can reorganize its forces to counterattack."

"What I want to do is to make a quick decision. The price we set will make Land Land Group have no chance of counter-acquisition at all, and let Niu Bijian give up immediately."

Rondeqi said: "In this case, then we set the price at HK$101-105 per share and we are absolutely sure to win."

Bao Yugang slapped the conference table and said in a word: "Then it will be HK$105."

Bao Yugang's words were loud and loud, making it impossible for everyone in the conference room to refute.

In this way, the largest acquisition plan in Hong Kong's history was decided in this conference room.

Then Bao Yugang continued: "Since Hutchison Whampoa's stock was suspended last Friday, I contacted me this time to entrust Hutchison Finance Company and Sun Hung Kai Securities Company to complete it. Mr. Langdeqi and Mr. Feng Jingxi, there is no problem."

"No problem!" said Rondeqi.

"It should be so!" Feng Jingxi also replied.

Then Bao Yugang turned his attention to his second son-in-law Wu Guangzheng and said to Wu Guangzheng: "Guangzheng, please notify reporters from all over Hong Kong immediately, saying that I will hold a press conference at 7 o'clock in the evening, and there is an important event announced. By the way, people from Global TV and TVB must be invited here."

"I understand, Chairman, I'll make arrangements right away." Wu Guangzheng said.

"Okay, then let's get to the meeting here. Everyone goes down to start working. After these days, Hutchison Whampoa is in our hands." Bao Yugang said, clenching his fists.

People from Global Group were overjoyed when they heard Bao Yugang's words. The same was true for those from Duolly Finance and Sun Hung Kai Securities, because they could also make a big profit through this acquisition battle and gain a reputation.

Everyone left the conference room one by one, while Wu Guangzheng left and returned.

After everyone left the conference room, Bao Yugang asked, "Guangzheng, is there anything wrong?"

"Father-in-law, the staff of Qilin Securities Company handed Li Zhiwen, hoping to meet you."

Bao Yugang's closed eyes suddenly opened and asked, "Li Zhiwen? We don't have any too heavy interactions with him. Apart from the opening ceremony of Yulong Bank and the last time he called you to reveal the actions of Jardinet Foreign Company, he has no contact since then. Why are you looking for me?"

"I don't know either!" Wu Guangzheng said.

Bao Yugang continued to ask: "When? Where?"

"The person who came here didn't say the specific time, just said that the faster the better. If you have important things to discuss with you, the location is in the cafe of the Cultural Hotel, father-in-law, why don't I refuse him or postpone the time?" Wu Guangzheng looked at the tired Bao Yugang and said with concern.

"Mandarin Hotel! Mandarin Hotel!" Bao Yugang whispered in a low voice, his thoughts flew towards 1978.

It was the same summer and the same coffee shop in the Mandarin Hotel. In 1978, Li Jiacheng, who had no intersection with Bao Yugang, called Bao Yugang to meet in the Mandarin Hotel's cafe.

At that time, Bao Yugang was planning to abandon the boat and land. After receiving a call from Li Jiacheng, Bao Yugang realized that the matter was of great importance, so he chose to go to the appointment.

This is true. Li Jiacheng transferred the Hutchison Whampoa stock that Bao Yugang was preparing to acquire to Bao Yugang for more than 300 million Hong Kong dollars, and transferred a total of 20 million shares.

Bao Yugang assisted Li Jiacheng to take over the 90 million Hutchison Whampoa stocks owned by HSBC from HSBC, and transfer cash support if necessary.

Just last September, Li Jiacheng successfully took over Hutchison Whampoa, while Bao Yugang was the first to attack Hutchison Whampoa, but the battle has been delayed until now, which makes people sigh.

When Wu Guangzheng saw Bao Yugang being lost, he did not disturb him, but silently stood by.

After a while, Bao Yugang stopped recalling and said to Wu Guangzheng: "Guangzheng, go and reply to the person who came. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, I will go to the Wenhua Hotel Cafe on time."
