Chapter 179 Trip to Hong Kong Island (Part )

The next day, He Yukai took a few boxes and rushed to HSBC.

The driver sent by Lou Zhenhua was very sensible. He didn't ask what it was and remained silent. He Yukai nodded with satisfaction. If he asked too many questions, he would definitely change driver immediately.

The driver and the secretary know a lot of things, and if they don't keep their mouths shut, there will be problems. It would not be good if He Yukai's boxes were noticed by someone with ulterior motives.

They have just arrived, so they should be cautious about everything.

The matter of the gold cannot be spread out. It would be difficult to explain if the inspection team knew about the gold. The only possible channel of spread is the driver.

After the gold was delivered, Johnson accompanied the entire process to handle the storage procedures.

After several trips, the gold in He Yukai's hands turned into Hong Kong dollars, and he received a total of 1080 million Hong Kong dollars. He Yukai directly asked Thomson to buy shares of Hutchison Whampoa.

More than 0.1 million was used to buy only % of the shares of Hutchison Whampoa. The proportion that was cut was very small, but due to the large size of Hutchison Whampoa, it was already a considerable amount.

Currently, the major shareholder of Hutchison Whampoa only holds 10% of the shares.

At this time, the Cheung Kong Group was keeping an eye on Hutchison Whampoa and Wharf Holdings at the same time. The shipping magnate was also keeping an eye on Wharf Holdings. Due to the economic depression, the shipping magnate was seeking transformation, and Wharf Holdings naturally came into the shipping magnate's sight.

John Bull Capital now dominates the business community of Hong Kong Island and has absolute power. However, due to the economic depression, the strength of John Bull Capital has been greatly weakened.

Although Chinese capital has grown rapidly, it has not yet reached the point where it can compete with John Bull Capital.

Wharf Holdings is John Bull Capital, which controls industries including docks, warehouses, hotels, buildings, trams and other assets.

They are in charge of Hong Kong Island's most important cargo shipping, warehousing and other businesses.

Hong Kong is an island. It has no strong rear support and can only rely on sea transportation.

A large amount of maritime transport requires ocean transportation and warehousing, and the position of Hong Kong Island is crucial.

At that time in Hong Kong, foreigners always acted superior. Even an ordinary bank clerk would be extremely proud when seeing Chinese people.

Not to mention foreigners with a certain social status, they always have a condescending attitude in the business world.

It is precisely because of this arrogant nature that the Chinese are holding their breath. Where there is oppression, there is resistance. This is the current situation in Hong Kong. Everyone wants to have equal status. John Bull is superior to others, so naturally some people seek status.

In order to gain status, Chinese businessmen began to band together and seek status in Hong Kong Island. Of course, there will always be people who forget their roots, but they are a minority after all.

“Go check right away to find out where this He Yukai came from and find a way to buy back his shares.

I never expected that such an unknown person would have the same idea as him.

Hong Kong Island has never heard of this person. I will check him out immediately. I want to know his strength. He acquired 0.1% in one day. If we didn’t have someone in HSBC, we don’t know where he came from. If he is strong enough, it is not impossible to contact him.”

In a luxurious villa in Deep Water Bay, Old Man Li put down the phone and thought about this person's background. He had never discovered this person before.

Although the current 0.1 is not a large amount, his eyes are the same as mine, and he doesn't look like a test. More than million Hong Kong dollars? No one would just use it to mess around, he must have a complete plan in mind.

He couldn't sleep until he found out the truth at this critical moment.

He is betting on both sides now and has not made up his mind yet. It is definitely not possible to catch both sides.

The information tends to favor Whampoa Ji. The main reason is that the shipping magnate is eyeing Wharf Holdings and he doesn't want to end up hurting both sides. The shipping magnate is a well-deserved giant and he doesn't want to offend this wealthy man.

At this time, he didn't want intruders to disrupt his plans and cause unnecessary trouble.

The most important thing is that no one knows whether this person secretly holds shares.

There are many such cases, where some people are struggling openly but absorbing shares secretly. When the shareholders' meeting begins, the inconspicuous people become dark horses.

Old man Li is using this method to quietly acquire shares of Hutchison Whampoa through multiple channels. He wants to take control of the company quietly.

This is mainly to avoid the sudden emergence of an opponent, whether it is a rival or competition, which will definitely cost more in the end to achieve the goal.

He Yukai knew that old man Li now controlled more than 10% of Wharf Holdings' shares. Once a decision was made, he could wait for the right price to sell.

Now HSBC and Charter King certainly cannot truly control Wharf Holdings, and Charter King is only thinking about transformation.

Although ocean shipping is declining now, its strength has not declined much. He just believes that the industry has become a sunset industry.

What's more, the relationship between the shipping king and HSBC is not simple. It is said that the charter king also has shares in HSBC.

Now old man Li has almost spent all the working capital of Changjiang Industrial, and has not yet completed the absolute control of Hutchison Whampoa.

If he still wants to control Whampoa Kee now, the best way is to sell all of Hutchison Whampoa's shares to the shipping king. Not only can he get working capital, but he can also make a small profit. The most important thing is to gain the friendship of the shipping king. It can be said that old man Li made a huge profit this time.

He Yukai had the same idea. Although he might not have many shares in his hands, they might be of help at a critical moment, and he might even be able to do a favor. He could make some money and establish a relationship with the Bao family in Hong Kong. Why not?
The key in the business world is connections. Without connections, it is impossible to get information first-hand, especially in Hong Kong Island. The existence of information gaps may cause you to suffer huge losses.

Now, due to the secret acquisition by Changjiang Industrial, the price of Hutchison Whampoa's stock has begun to gradually rise. Seeing this situation, retail investors have rushed into Hutchison Whampoa frantically.

The Hong Kong stock market has been in a bull market since 74, and a large number of retail investors have made a lot of money from the stock market.

Money can blind people's eyes. The rise of Hutchison Whampoa has made many investors think about the money they made in the stock market. Is there hope of making a fortune again this time?

The crazy influx of investors has caused the stock price to continue to rise, and the rise in stock prices is what He Yukai likes to see most.

He Yukai didn't manage Hutchison Whampoa for a week. He knew he couldn't lose money, so why bother looking at the curves that were written from time to time?

He Yukai is now concentrating on spending time with his family. He has been busy with his own affairs these days and has not yet accompanied his family to travel around Hong Kong Island and instilled the concept of an entertainment company into Yu Shui.

He Yushui knew what her elder brother was thinking. He wanted to set up an entertainment company so she could gain experience and learn at the same time.

He Yushui readily agreed, and the children came along. Zhao Jianguo couldn't come due to work reasons, so when He Yukai returned, he would ask Zhao Jianguo to formally resign and go to Hong Kong Island to help He Yushui.

He Yushui also studied hard. After her elder brother and the others went back, she would have to rely on herself. Now He Yushui did not have such a strong sense of contract and felt a lot of pressure.

A week passed and He Yukai prepared to go to the stock exchange to check out the situation of Hutchison Whampoa.

Although he used HSBC's five-fold leverage to hold Wharf Holdings, information was not well developed at that time. Although HSBC sent traders to keep an eye on Wharf Holdings, He Yukai was not reassured because the money was all he had. If there was a margin call, all his years of accumulation would be wiped out, which would seriously affect his growth rate.

The stock exchange updates data at any time, and the share price of Hutchison Whampoa has been rising continuously. He Yukai has witnessed the madness of the stock market. If he didn't know the prospects of Hutchison Whampoa, he would be scared now.

The current stock prices are a bit overvalued. He Yukai calculated that if he cashed out now, he could get about 2300 million, after deducting the leverage fees.

It is no longer a secret in the circle that the shipping king has set his sights on Hutchison Whampoa. The name of the shipping king can give the majority of investors enough confidence.

Not to mention that there is an Old Silver Coin who is following behind and taking advantage of the situation. Now the higher the stock price rises, the greater the profit of Changjiang Industrial will be. Old Silver Coin will definitely not refuse such a good opportunity to make both money and favors.

Lao Yinbi introduced the concept of common area of ​​commercial housing to China. Because of his concept, ordinary people paid a lot more money to buy a place to live.

Decades later, many people have come up with new ways to use the common area as an excuse. For a house of more than 100 square meters, the common area occupies 20 to 30 square meters. Some people even include the area in front of the unit door into the common area. You have no way to resist.

Although this is in a parallel world, He Yukai still feels indignant every time he thinks of this matter.

In his previous life, He Yukai was cheated by the so-called common area. In a house of 27 square meters, the common area occupied square meters, which cost more than yuan per square meter. In other words, yuan was given to the developer for nothing.

Indignant, I looked up information to find out what this evil thing was. After tracing the origin, I found that it was this old coin that developed and expanded this concept and introduced it to China.

When the reform and opening up was underway, a large amount of foreign investment was needed. This old silver coin began to hoard land all over China. The reasons for land use were all strange and varied. Without exception, they were all slow to build or stopped halfway through. Finally, when the land price rose, they began to cash out and took the huge amount of money to invest in John Bull. They were simply ungrateful and had no bottom line for money, which was despicable.

He Yukai is not strong enough now and cannot access old silver coins. When he becomes strong enough in the future, he will still have to be taught a lesson to let him know that there is no problem in making money, but he must not forget his bloodline.

He Yukai thought of a song here, maybe he could release it in advance to show everyone what it means to remember one's roots.

This is what a market-driven economy is like. Prices change at any time with the market.

Now that Changjiang Industrial has acquired a lot of stocks, it means that there are fewer and fewer stocks in the hands of retail investors. There are also those not-so-big shareholders, people like He Yukai who still account for the majority. Although they don't hold many shares, they occupy a large share.

The global oil crisis in the past few years has caused major oil-consuming countries to reduce their imports. In particular, large consumers such as Little Japan and John Bull have begun to restrict their oil consumption. As a result, oil tankers have gradually lost business and have been exposed to increasing risks.

As the charter king built a lot of ships for a small business, his ships fell into disrepair. Especially the great depression in the shipping industry made the charter king realize that his business's ability to resist risks was getting weaker and weaker.

The shipping tycoon is becoming more and more eager to transform. He Yukai's shares are no longer valued. The stock price fluctuates more and more. The shipping tycoon may have entered the market. He Yukai can't afford to take the risk.

He Yukai wanted to put his shares up for sale, but Wharf Holdings had already started to overvalue itself. This was due to a covert acquisition by Cheung Kong Holdings and a large number of retail investors continuing to pour in. The most important thing was that the shipping king was likely already gone.

There is also one biggest risk: no one knows whether there is a banker or not.

If a big investor comes to take control and reap the profits, it will be too late and the possibility of being trapped will become greater and greater.

He Yukai's ability to resist risks is the lowest. He cannot afford to lose. If he loses, the time it takes to rise will be infinitely prolonged. He is already in his forties and cannot afford to lose.

In recent years, retail investors in Hong Kong have reaped the benefits of the bull market and most of them have made money. Seeing that Wharf Holdings continues to heat up, they are bound to be restless. No one complains about having too much money. If a big shark suddenly leaves the market, the stock price may very likely plummet.

He Yukai is only half-baked at stock prices, and his greatest advantage may be just the general trend. This is not the original world, this is the world of Siheyuan. No one knows whether it will continue according to He Yukai's memory. The most important thing is to lock in profits.

He Yukai drove to HSBC and found his account manager to request to release the warehouse with a firm attitude.

The account manager was very surprised by He Yukai's decision. Right now, Hutchison Whampoa is optimistic about the business and this is the perfect time to make money. Yet, there are still people who complain about making too much money. The world is full of surprises.

"Mr. Ho, Wharf Holdings' share price continues to rise. Excuse me, it is not a good choice to leave now. I suggest you continue to hold on."

The income of an account manager is directly linked to the client's profit. The more the client earns, the higher his income will be.

The account manager didn't want He Yukai to leave so soon as it concerned his own interests, so he wanted to persuade He Yukai to change his mind.

“You’re my account manager, I don’t want to explain too much.

Now you should listen to my orders and sell it immediately, otherwise, I don’t mind changing to an obedient account manager.”

Now that the decision has been made, the faster the better. He Yukai didn't want to waste time with the account manager. The stock market changes rapidly and there was no need to get entangled.

"No, no, Mr. He, it is my job to provide investment advice to clients. Of course, the final decision is still yours. Now that you have made the decision, I will sell it immediately."

When the account manager heard He Yukai say this, of course he was unwilling. Now he can already get the commission. If he replaces someone else, all these years of work will be in vain!

I just want to earn more, but I don't want to give up the profits I have earned.

Afterwards, the account manager no longer hesitated and immediately sold the Wharf shares held by He Yukai, fearing that being a step late would cause He Yukai's dissatisfaction.

This is not the highly developed information age of later generations, and the results of the stock sell-off will not come out for a few days.

Seeing the stocks being signed for sale, He Yukai nodded with satisfaction and left.

Many people are unable to control their greed, including He Yukai in his previous life, who suffered a lot of losses and paid a lot of tuition fees.

Why would he risk losing money now that there are more ways to make money?

The most important thing now is to lock in profits. According to my memory, the share price of Hutchison Whampoa still has room for growth. But memory is memory after all. Although the general trend may not change, the minor trend may not.

According to the current situation, his 10 million can generate at least 30 million in revenue, with a net profit of more than 20 million, which is already a huge sum of money.

The highest leverage that He Yukai enjoyed was five times, but of course he had to pay high interest to the bank. However, the net profit of 20 million Hong Kong dollars was only after deducting the bank interest and the account manager's commission, but He Yukai was very satisfied.

"Xiao Kai, what have you been busy with these days? Do you have any plans? Do you need my help?"

Lou Zhenhua knew that He Yukai went to HSBC, but he didn't want to monitor He Yukai. He was just concerned about his itinerary. He had just arrived here and was unfamiliar with the place, so it was better to be careful. People here would do anything for money. What's more, he had just arrived in Hong Kong Island and was not familiar with the situation at HSBC. It would be troublesome if he was cheated.

"Uncle Lou, the matter has been resolved, don't worry!

I want Yu Shui to study at the Hong Kong Island University. I want to get involved in the entertainment industry and let Yu Shui be in charge of the company after it is established. My two nephews are also studying here, so Yu Shui will not go back.

The situation in China will get better and better. I estimate that it won't be long before you can go back. I am going to resign and start my own business to make plans for the future. If there is any need, I will tell you.

Yu Shui and the children still need Uncle Lou's help to go to school. I will provide the necessary funds. You can only rely on Uncle Lou to contact the school."

He Yukai is in a good mood now, and he has appropriately revealed some of his plans to Lou Zhenhua. After he returns to Shenzhou, He Yushui will still need Lou Zhenhua's care.

"Going to school is not a big problem. What do you mean by the change in the situation?"

Lou Zhenhua has never forgotten where his roots are and always wants to go back.

"Uncle Lou, any new body must go through certain setbacks before it can rise quickly. Shenzhou is about to rise, and you must be prepared. If conditions permit, Shenzhou must intervene as soon as possible. I believe you will not be disappointed."

He Yukai couldn't explain it too clearly now, but he believed that Lou Zhenhua was a smart man and he definitely knew what he meant.

“Hong Kong is also discussing this issue, but most people are not so optimistic. Although the market is huge, most people are waiting and watching.”

Lou Zhenhua looked at He Yukai solemnly. If the situation in Shenzhou was really improving, it would definitely be a good opportunity. The earlier one entered, the faster one could occupy the huge market.

China's huge market is its greatest potential, and many aspects are still blank. It is impossible not to make money as long as you enter the market. The key is to see it actually implemented.

"Uncle Lou, believe me, I will send you a telegram when the time comes. Don't hesitate and strive to be the first person to try it out and set a better example for the Chinese here. Uncle Lou should understand what I mean."

He Yukai certainly hopes that Lou Zhenhua can take the lead. The Huo family's weather vane is aimed at the wealthy families. Most of the middle class will wait and see. As long as someone really makes money, they will definitely flock to it.

"I understand, Xiaokai, don't worry, my original intention remains unchanged."

Lou Zhenhua didn't lie. He really wanted to go back home all the time, and the thought of returning to his roots has become stronger and stronger in recent years.

"Well, Uncle Lou, can you help me keep an eye out for any entertainment companies for sale? I want to directly acquire a smaller entertainment company."

Compared to starting a company by yourself, direct acquisition is definitely the best method. At least it can avoid wasting time due to procedural issues, and their time is limited.

"Okay, I'll send someone to investigate this matter, don't worry."

Lou Zhenhua did not ask where He Yukai's funds came from. No matter how good the relationship was, he could not dig into the root of the problem. Lou Zhenhua had been in the business world for decades and had a good sense of proportion.

His daughter Lou Xiao'e talked about the protection and care that He Yukai and his wife had given her over the past ten years. Lou Zhenhua was very satisfied and did not want to create a rift because of these trivial matters.

Although Lou Xiao'e has married into the He family, there are many cases of selling out parents and wives for profit. He Yukai has done enough and he has fulfilled his promise to him.

The most important thing when people get along with each other is propriety. Sometimes it's not that people don't say it, but it's because your relationship has not yet reached the point where he can trust you unconditionally. For businessmen, unconditional trust is the most luxurious thing.
