The Industrial Giant Reborn

Chapter 118 Recruiting Richard

Hutchison Group Headquarters:

"It's actually a Chinese, what do you think about this?" In the office of Chairman Hutchison, Qi Dezun's face was blood red and his eyes were wide open, while a group of people and assistants around him were sitting around the conference table.

"I have investigated the situation of this galaxy. It was established in 1973. Its main business is to acquire industrial land or properties in Kowloon, Hung Hom, and Yuen Long in Hong Kong. The authorization certificate is similar to real estate securities, and there is also a trading company and a securities company. The trading company mainly exports overseas, and the securities company has not made any movement." Richard immediately read the newspaper in the morning Arrange people to investigate Xinghe's information. Although it is not complete, it is considered to be some.

"There has been no movement. It should be buying Hutchison stocks all the time?" Qi Dezun said with a cold snort: "With so much money flowing, no one has noticed?"

"I speculate that Galaxy Securities Company's funds come from overseas, so it hasn't attracted much attention." Richard said, in fact, under normal circumstances, who would doubt a small securities company? Without sufficient background, who can plan to acquire Hutchison? Even Hutchison, which has fallen into a trough, does not have enough strength in Hong Kong, so there is no way to get involved.

"Overseas?" Qi Dezun frowned and asked, "Is there any overseas capital support behind him?"

"It's possible, but not necessarily, this Xinghe company is actually nothing. His boss, Chen Zhiwen, owns a Red Bull beverage company that sells very well in North America." Richard said.

"Red Bull? I've heard of it, so it's the same family?" Qi Dezun nodded and said.

Richard went on to say: "Chairman, it has been confirmed that the acquirer is a Chinese-funded company, and it is not a well-known Chinese-owned company. Although this Chen Zhiwen has been considered a very good business star in recent years, it is impossible for his team to be able to Taking over the Hutchison Group, even if he acquires all the shares of Hutchison, it is impossible for him to manage it himself."

"You mean, he will continue to let us manage it?" Qi Dezun thought for a while and said: "That's fine, he can be a major shareholder with peace of mind, and we will continue to do our business."

"I don't think it's possible." Bruce, another director, said, "If Chen Zhiwen is willing to be a major shareholder who doesn't care about anything, there is no need to acquire 40% of the shares. Everyone knows the current risks of Hutchison. At such a high price, after the acquisition was discovered and continued to purchase at a high price, it must be a conspiracy."

"Of course I know that he has a plan. A normal person, especially such a successful young man, who doesn't want to take power, but whether it can be another matter. Hutchison has hundreds of companies and more than 20 listed companies. There are as many as 100 kinds of business involved, and it is not so easy for Jardine's management to take over Hutchison's business, let alone him." Richard retorted.

"Maybe it won't be now, but maybe it will be hard to say in the future." Another person said.

Another person said: "We'll talk about the future. As long as we are united, how can he manage such a large company as a person who only knows how to buy properties to appreciate in value?"

"Okay, it's useless to argue about these things." Qi Dezun raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and said, "Richard's words make sense, and we'll be fine in a short time. According to Chen Zhiwen's request, he will come and talk to you in three days. Remember, when the time comes, we will make a more grand layout, be more polite, prepare him a luxurious office near the sea, and let him be a major shareholder."

"Then why don't you ask him to meet in advance and communicate with him first, it will be more convenient." Richard said.

"No, I'm going to beg to see him now, but I'm at a disadvantage, and I'll be restrained every step of the way. Why don't you wait, so what if a young man in his twenties becomes a major shareholder?" Qi Dezun said confidently .

Seeing that Qi Dezun is so proud, Richard didn't say anything anymore. He has been with this boss for nearly ten years, and he has already known his personality. When Hutchison was at its peak, he didn't even pay attention to the governor of Hong Kong and the tycoon of HSBC Bank. Now, if it wasn't for Hutchison's big problem because of him, I'm afraid he would be even more proud.

After the conclusion of the Hutchison Board of Directors, Richard returned to his office, looked at the information his subordinates had checked, and suddenly, the phone rang.

"Hi, hello." Richard picked up the phone and said.

"Mr. Richard, this is Galaxy Holding Group, my name is Li Haonan." Said in a deep voice on the other side of the phone.

"Hello." Richard was taken aback, and said after a moment of silence.

"Some things may not be convenient for us to discuss on the phone. I have opened a private room at the Peninsula Coffee Shop on the sixth floor of the Hilton Hotel. I wonder if Mr. Richard can come over here?" Li Haonan said.

"Okay, I'll see you in an hour." Richard hesitated for a moment, but still agreed, he is his future boss anyway, and he still wants to see it after making an appointment.

An hour later, Hilton Hotel Peninsula Coffee.

Li Haonan and Chen Zhiwen have been waiting here for a long time. Since the Hilton Hotel was rectified by the family, the privacy of meeting people here has increased a lot. After Richard arrived, Li Haonan stood up and introduced: "Mr. Richard, we It's Li Haonan, HR Manager of Galaxy Group, and this is Mr. Chen Zhiwen, Chairman of Galaxy Group."

"Hi, Mr. Li, hello, Mr. Chen." Richard was quite surprised when he heard Chen Zhiwen's name. He never expected to meet this person who bought Hutchison here.

"Hello, Mr. Richard, please sit down." Chen Zhiwen also waved his hand.

After several people sat down, Chen Zhiwen said, "Mr. Richard, what do you think of the current Hutchison?"

"Which aspect is Chen Sheng talking about?" This is a relatively sensitive topic, and Richard had to be very cautious.

"Operational problems, Hutchison is now in too much debt, how can we solve this problem?" Chen Zhiwen said.

Not talking about personnel issues, Richard breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Hutchison's current problem is that the debt is too heavy, resulting in many projects without funds to restart, and stopping at the same place will only consume funds for nothing, but there is no way. If we can Obtaining an additional amount of funds to start some profitable projects can drive some of the company's business to operate normally, so that it can at least temporarily cope with the debt problem.

But if we want a long-term solution, we either need to inject a lot of money, or the real estate market and the stock market recover. We can sell some land or stocks to obtain funds. "

"That's true, but it's useless. Everyone knows that money can solve problems. What if there is no money?" Chen Zhiwen laughed. If the money is in place, any problems are no longer a problem.

"Then we can only sell part of our business and properties to raise funds," Richard said.

"Then which businesses and properties do you think need to be preserved?" Chen Zhiwen asked.

Richard paused, and said: "If I were to do it, I would retain the port business, real estate business, securities business, trading business, manufacturing business, retail business, and automobile trading business. Others will be determined according to the situation."

"Then I don't know if Mr. Richard is willing to become the new big class of Hutchison Group?" Chen Zhiwen said suddenly.
