Chapter 194 The acquisition was successful
[Hengnong Group surrendered within two days and all assets were unconditionally compensated to Zhihua Group]

[Cao Zhihua points his sword at Wheelock & Company. Can Wheelock & Company be able to fight?]

[Hengnong Group surrenders, will Wheelock become the second Hengnong Group]

[Cao Zhihua warned citizens not to buy properties owned by Wheelock, saying that all losses caused by not listening to the advice will be borne by himself, and Zhihua Group will not be responsible for compensation]

[Cao Zhihua points his sword at Wheelock, and Wheelock trembles]

Cao Zhihua came to the office early in the morning, and after letting Du Xinru make a cup of tea, he excitedly picked up today's newspaper, eager to know if the Hengnong Group's surrender was reported in today's newspaper.

As a result, the content on the front pages of each newspaper in the early morning was more exaggerated than the last.

After Qiu Jun took a sip of tea, he began to read the content inside.

[Our reporter learned that Hengnong Group faced Zhihua Group’s offensive to stop supplying construction materials. After resisting for two days, it announced its unconditional surrender.
And unconditionally compensated all the properties of Hengnong Group to Zhihua Group. The amount of compensation reached an astonishing HK$3.8 million. The assets of the richest man, Mr. Cao Zhihua, took another big step forward.

At yesterday's press conference, Mr. Cao Zhihua personally warned Hong Kong residents not to purchase properties owned by Wheelock & Company in the near future to avoid huge losses.
Mr. Cao Zhihua emphasized that if a citizen does not listen to the advice, he will be responsible for all subsequent losses, and Zhihua Group will not compensate for it. 】

[Manjia Shengfo Cao Zhihua helps solve the drinking water problem of Hong Kong Island residents.

Our reporter learned that at yesterday's press conference, Mr. Cao Zhihua personally stated that all profits from Hengnong Group will be invested in people's livelihood projects and used in Hong Kong Island's drinking water projects to fully solve the drinking water problem in Hong Kong Island. In the future, Hong Kong Island citizens will There is no need to buy water at exorbitant prices. 】

[According to our reporter, at the joint press conference between Hengnong Group and Zhihua Group yesterday, Hengnong Group officially surrendered to Mr. Cao Zhihua unconditionally and unconditionally compensated Mr. Cao Zhihua for Hengnong Group’s value of HK$3.8 million.

Mr. Cao Zhihua said at the press conference that it is better to resolve enemies than to end them. Although Hengnong Group was the main driver of this business war, Mr. Cao Zhihua magnanimously chose to forgive.

Mr. Cao Zhihua, who has great love in his heart, announced that all profits from Hengnong Group will be used to improve people's livelihood and solve the drinking water problem of Hong Kong Island residents.

At the end of the press conference, Mr. Cao Zhihua suggested that all residents of Hong Kong Island should not purchase properties under Wheelock in the near future to avoid property losses.

After Zhihua Group has solved Hengnong Group, the war with Wheelock is about to break out. Who will win and who will lose? Please pay attention to this newspaper. Our reporter will bring you the latest business war intelligence. 】

When Cao Zhihua saw such disgusting content, he knew it was a newspaper owned by his father-in-law without even looking.

After shaking his head, he took a sip of tea, took a cigar from the drawer, lit it, and continued reading the newspaper.

[Mr. Cao Zhihua, who solved the Hengnong Group in two days, did not choose to stop, but pointed at Wheelock at the press conference.

The commercial war between Chinese merchants and foreign companies is about to break out. This war may completely change the economic development pattern of Hong Kong Island.

This newspaper hereby solemnly advises all citizens not to purchase properties owned by Wheelock in the near future to avoid causing losses to their own property. 】

Cao Zhihua shook his head with a dumb smile. When it comes to playing word games, the Chinese are really good at it. They can definitely scare the citizens with all kinds of overt and covert hints.

But this time, thanks to the concerted efforts of these Chinese businessmen to help him, public opinion completely shifted to his side.
This feeling of being the protagonist is really good. It feels like the world and the earth are working together, and everything goes smoothly.

I looked at the newspapers on the table, all exaggeratingly praising the Zhihua Group and myself, and all kinds of negative views on Wheelock.

Cao Zhihua felt very happy at this time, and the only thing he was still thinking about was the acquisition of Wheelock Real Estate Trust Company.

But this is what happened. Everything I should do has been done. Whether it is resource mobilization or media promotion, I have done everything I should do to the extreme.

After all, no one knows what will happen in the next second in this world, so although Cao Zhihua is thinking about it, he will not force himself.

It is a helplessness that everyone gradually learns when entering society.

Even someone as strong as Cao Zhihua cannot avoid it, but what Cao Zhihua doesn't know is that after Shen Bi communicated with him yesterday.

The Hong Kong government and Shen Bi both talked with John Madden. What the West pursues is the law of the jungle, and the winner takes the spoils. This has always been the law followed by Western society.

Therefore, John Madden obtained the guarantee from the Hong Kong government and Shen Bi that if he gave up his equity in Wheelock Real Estate Trust Company, he could obtain mediation from the Hong Kong government. After this business war has come to an end, John Madden has actually realized that The company gave up.

It’s just that John Madden still feels sorry for the money transferred from other industries of the group. After all, John Madden used this money and the advantages of White House to buy a lot of cheap land, and three of them have a 999-year term.

Wheelock Real Estate Trust Company currently still has tens of millions of cash in its account, but even if John Madden wants to organize a shareholder dividend meeting, it is obviously too late. John Madden is a veteran member of the Hong Kong Island Club.

Nowadays, stock trading on Hong Kong Island is still face-to-face trading. John Madden is naturally well-informed and has long known that Hang Seng Bank is secretly acquiring shares of Wheelock Real Estate Trust Company.
And after seeing today's newspaper reporting on Wheelock & Company, John Madden didn't even need the people below to report it. He knew that all shareholders holding real estate trust companies today would sell off their shares on a large scale.
You must know that the current Hong Kong Island Club has no trading disclosure rules.

That is to say, in later generations, once anyone holds more than 5% of the shares, regardless of whether they have acquisition intentions, they need to suspend stock purchases and disclose their shareholdings in accordance with the law.

So John Madden knows that it is too late to react now. What John Madden is most worried about now is that after Cao Zhihua acquired the company, he injected large amounts of capital into the company and squeezed the shares of other shareholders.

When the time comes, the shares of the real estate trust company that I have invested so much money in will be worthless if I just throw them into my hands.

You must know that with the funds in Cao Zhihua's hands, he is fully capable of privatizing the real estate trust company.

John Madden, who was anxious, immediately arranged for the company's employees to go to Hong Kong Island to sell off the real estate trust company he held, and recover as much money as possible.

After all, the situation has been very unfavorable to John Madden. John Madden has already given up the Real Estate Trust Company under the pressure of the Hong Kong government.

Therefore, it is best to stop loss and run away now.

The trading floor of the Hong Kong Island Fair was crowded with people today, many of whom were white-skin holders of real estate trust companies.

Everyone has seen that Real Estate Trust's stock price has dropped from 8.9 yuan per share to 3.2 yuan per share.

Bai Pi, who was still on the trading floor, knew that he was lagging behind, so he came a little late. Everyone in front had already finished running, and the stock price was cut in half. Everyone felt so sad.

However, we have seen that there are still people buying shares of real estate trust companies.

Everyone can more or less guess what is going on, so they all want to wait and see to see if the next situation will be better. After all, cutting flesh is very painful, and not many are willing to try this taste. Therefore, more and more people are watching on the spot after seeing the share price of real estate trust companies.

It’s just that the result everyone is waiting for is not so satisfactory.

At 11 o'clock, the real estate trust company's stock suddenly surged in huge volume, like a huge hammer hitting the hearts of all retail investors. They only saw the stock price of Wheelock Real Estate Trust Co., Ltd. like a waterfall, from 3.2 yuan per share. It was directly hit to 0.8 yuan per share and quickly established at this price.

The retail investors at the scene were stunned by the collapse of the stock price due to the huge amount of stocks.

Everyone was stunned at the scene. They had no idea what was happening. All the retail investors were blurred by this blow.

It is completely impossible to determine how many stocks were increased in order to bring the price to this level.

Suddenly a loud roar came from the chaotic crowd:
"It's Wheelock, it's Wheelock. Wheelock sold off all its stocks and ran away. Oh my God, Wheelock smashed the market and ran away. Oh my money, this is my money. What should I do with all my worth?"

Suddenly, the trading floor of the Hong Kong Island Club was in a state of panic. People rushed to the front to sell their shares, fearing that if they were a little late, the shares would be worthless in their own hands.

"Oh my God, I know Wheelock will definitely lose. Why should I hesitate? I can run away."

"Oh my god, help me, my money."

“This piece of shit Wheelock actually ran away, can’t he even compare to Hengnong Group?
Is it worthy of the trust and support of us retail investors to run away just after the war started? "

At this time, Hang Seng Bank ushered in a bumper harvest.
"Ms. He, we have acquired 51% of the real estate trust company's shares, and we have reached a controlling stake."

He Caili said with a serious face:

"We will continue to acquire as many acquisitions as we can. We are very well funded."

You must know that there has been no case of Chinese businessmen acquiring foreign banks in Hong Kong Island in the past. This is the first time, and it is an acquisition battle that is destined to succeed.

Of course, such a good thing would be given priority to one's own people. As the niece trained by He Shanheng, He Caili naturally received this favor.

After a while, the man in red vest from Hang Seng Bank came over and said:

"Ms. He, there is a huge amount of selling in Real Estate Trust Company's stocks now. We have acquired 62% of Wheelock Real Estate Trust Company's shares."

When He Caili heard the good news, her tense face softened a little.

You must know that such a big scene as the battle between Chinese merchants and foreign merchants has not happened on Hong Kong Island in a hundred years.

And this time, his uncle handed over the acquisition battle of Wheelock Real Estate Trust Company, the most eye-catching, most successful, and front-line fighting company, to him, which shows how much trust he has in himself.

Even though He Caili considers herself to be very capable, when she started working on such an intense project, He Caili was naturally worried that she would mess things up, so she was always very serious in the big client room.

This is a war that can only be won but cannot be lost. This war does not simply represent the Zhihua Group, but also represents all Chinese businessmen in Hong Kong Island.

If I screw this up, I really won't be able to survive in the financial circles of Hong Kong Island.

Thinking of this, He Caili said seriously:

"No matter how big the selling is, as long as it is a stock on the market, I will buy it all as quickly as possible.

You must take advantage of the moment when everyone is panicked to acquire all the stocks you can acquire. "

After hearing He Caili's instructions, the red vest quickly replied: "Okay, Miss He, I will arrange the acquisition right away."

After saying that, the red vest hurried out and continued to buy.

You must know that the equity of Western companies has always been very fragmented. Many companies hold 5% of the shares, which is the major shareholder of the company and has great influence.

When John Madden changed his name to Real Estate Trust Company, he only held 11% of the shares. It was only after John Madden injected a large sum of money that he increased his shares to more than 30 shares.

By 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Cao Zhihua finally received a call from He Shanheng.

After hanging up the phone, Cao Zhihua lay on the sofa behind his desk in a good mood, took a puff of cigar, and said silently:

“Flowing water and falling flowers, spring is gone, heaven and earth.

Yes, this time Hong Kong Island has changed into a human world. "

The reason why humans are the smartest animals is because they are good at learning. The reason why Hong Kong Island's current economy has always been dominated by foreign companies.

In addition to capital reasons, the biggest reason is caused by the humiliating history of the Chinese people in the past century and the long-term suppression by the White Skin.

And Chinese businessmen are good at compromise and take a step back to gain a brighter future. Therefore, Chinese businessmen do not dare to compete with Baipi, and they have never thought about competing with Baipi.

If it were not for the 80s and 90s when these white-skinned people knew that they could no longer occupy Hong Kong Island for a long time, they needed to support White Gloves. They loosened the rope around the necks of Chinese businessmen and supported many Chinese businessmen.

It is extremely difficult for Chinese businessmen to stand up on Hong Kong Island. After all, these people's bones have been broken more than once. It is obviously difficult for them to stand up and compete with Baipi.

And once Cao Zhihua wins the business war with foreign companies, it will be recorded in the annals of history, and it will also be a great good thing for Chinese businessmen.

After all, Cao Zhihua was able to defeat the foreign companies and escape unscathed without any problems.
Then I can too, right?

Who would think that they are weaker than others?That's obviously not possible.

Cao Zhihua turned his head and looked at the spring scenery outside the window, and he very much hoped that his victory this time would allow Chinese businessmen to emerge as a group of real Chinese business elites.

In this case, when facing Baipi in the future, I won't be so lonely, like a lone hero, charging alone.

This is not to forget the help provided by the Chinese businessmen who cheered for me this time, but this kind of help can really only play a side role in this kind of business collision.

Unable to give himself a substantial improvement in his ability to take on challenges.

Once I failed to withstand the impact of the four major foreign companies this time, these Chinese businessmen who were playing the role of sidelines would be scattered faster than anyone else. After all, they were all in pieces.

So Cao Zhihua decided in his heart to provide certain conveniences to the Chinese businessmen in Hong Kong and try his best to help the new generation of Chinese businessmen become established as soon as possible, such as the new four major families?
