Rebirth

Facing Li Chaoren's keen business intuition, Li Feng was shocked.

"Uncle, am I so obvious?" Li Feng asked with a surprised smile.

I have to say that Li Feng really admired this Li Chaoren at this time. He just simply said two names. This business man who has been in the business for his whole life knows what idea he has made. It is really important. Look at it.

"Really Standard Chartered?" Li Zekai asked silently.

At the same time, Li Zeju and his wife on the side looked at Li Feng with surprise, leaving Li Feng speechless for a while.

"Actually, you don't have to think so complicated. Standard Chartered is nothing. Think about the market value of Standard Chartered. Compared to Cheung Kong, it's only a fraction." Li Feng replied with a smile.

"Wow... Standard Chartered, that's Standard Chartered." Li Zekai joked with a smile.

"Standard Chartered is a good project, and it is really possible to succeed. The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves forward, and the afterlife is terrible." Li Chaoren was the first to recover from his surprise, and said to Li Feng with emotion.

"It's nothing. The market value of Standard Chartered today is so small. It really doesn't need to be too much capital to acquire, as long as someone is willing to make up his mind." Li Feng said with a smile.

"This is not a question of funding. Standard Chartered is one of the three major note-issuing banks in Hong Kong. Although it is not many, accounting for only a few 10%, it also has the right to issue notes in Malaysia and South Africa. This is true. Not an ordinary bank.

Wanting to acquire Standard Chartered is not only due to financial resources, but also the support of the government. First of all, Standard Chartered belongs to the British financial group, and now that Hong Kong has returned, it also needs the attitude of the Chinese government and the British Hong Kong government. These are all. Only by getting through, can the acquisition go smoothly."Superman helped analyze.

...

Li Feng smiled and said nothing. For Li Chaoren, Li Feng could only listen to half of it. Yes, the acquisition of Standard Chartered does require the support of the two major governments. If the Chinese and British governments oppose it fully, the acquisition is indeed unlikely.

However, today Li Feng’s wings are full and he has the strength to talk to all parties, even the Chinese and British governments are no exception. The Century Consortium is no longer a small consortium, especially after a series of mergers of the Blackwater Group. The emperor’s newly emerging powerful force.

There is no doubt about the influence of military industrial enterprises. The US government definitely voted for Li Feng, an American, to acquire Standard Chartered. After all, Li Feng is the super-rich of American imperialism and the representative of the new generation of American dreams.

Similarly, whether in the UK or in China, Li Feng also has enough network resources. In his previous trip to the UK, Li Feng could talk to the crown prince, grand duke, prime minister, etc.

This is especially true in China. Today, Li Feng has become a guest of China's government. Century Group's investment in China has reached 10 billion U.S. dollars, and it is about to become the largest foreign investment enterprise.

The last time I went to Huaxia was already a ministerial reception. Li Feng believed that when he went to Huaxia next time, maybe the central boss would personally receive it. This is Li Feng's current influence.

Under such a strong influence, it is possible to acquire Standard Chartered, and Standard Chartered is one of the world-class financial consortia most likely to be acquired. The main reason is that there is no shareholder with a strong share of shares, the largest Shareholders are only a few 10% of the shares.

As for those large financial consortia, which have no government or world-class consortium background, Standard Chartered was actually reorganized after World War II, and those consortia only took part of the shares at first.

Of course, you still need to have enough confidence, and the three big white knights Li Feng just understood the attitude of the three companies to Standard Chartered in later generations, and naturally, they can defeat the three.

...

"The three white knights defending Standard Chartered at the time can be said to be an important part of Hong Kong's financial history in the 1980s. I think you should be aware of the Qiu family. This old friend Qiu Deba has been increasing his shareholding. This old guy is right. Banks have a soft spot.

It started as Maybank, but unfortunately, it was expropriated by the Malay government for political reasons.Today, Maybank has become the national bank of Malaysia. Although it has suffered heavy losses due to the financial crisis, as a national bank of a country, especially a bank in a country with a large population, it has great potential.

It is not easy to get the shares of Standard Chartered from Qiu Deba's hands. In the past few years, I don't know how many people have tried to get the shares in his hands. Unfortunately, they have never succeeded.

As for the Bao family and the one from Australia, it is possible that these two companies have no interest in controlling Standard Chartered Bank. They have been reducing their holdings over the years, and you can see that as long as John makes a reasonable bid, you can buy directly. Come back.

But, John, you have to be prepared. Faced with the counterattack of Standard Chartered’s management and a group of supporters, the Goldstone family and others will never sit back and watch Standard Chartered, which has been in business for half a century, give in. There may be new ones at that time. Maybe the white knight came out."Li Chaoren smiled and analyzed.

"This is all within the scope of my consideration. As long as I can acquire the shares in the hands of the three white knights, I will formally initiate an offer to Standard Chartered." Li Feng replied confidently.

"Since you have come to me, well, I also want to see if you can get Standard Chartered. I will help you first contact Qiu Deba and Bao's family. As for the last Australian hotel boss, I don't have much contact. If you can really get the two above mentioned, you can ask them to help contact them. As the three white knights, their relationship is pretty good." Superman couldn't help but suggested with interest on his face.

"Thank you, uncle, for the time being, I hope uncle can help me keep it secret."

"Don't worry, we can guarantee this."

"..."

...

When he got the result he wanted most, Li Feng was naturally happy. He couldn’t help expressing his congratulations to Li Chaoren’s family with a red wine glass. Seeing that the time was almost the same. After all, Li Chaoren is indeed older now, and Li Feng Made a goodbye.

"John, Richard doesn't live here anyway, let him see him off." Seeing Li Feng preparing to leave, Li Chaoren nodded secretly and praised Li Feng's cleverness and interest. He was really a little sleepy. I couldn't help but said to the young son who was still excited.

"Yeah, that's the best, thank you!"

When Li Feng left, Li Chaoren once again brought his eldest son and daughter-in-law to see him off at the door, giving Li Feng enough face.Although Li Feng's wealth is indeed not inferior to that of Li Chaoren, it is surprising that such a young man is treated so favorably.

No, as Li Feng left, the eldest son and daughter-in-law of Superman were full of doubts.

"Father, do you really want to help Uncle Qiu and Bao's family?"

"Why, don't you think it should be?"

"No, since you want to help contact the two companies, do you think we should get involved, such as doing more Standard Chartered Bank, I think the income will be good."

"I see if you are a little dizzy recently. The listing of Yangtze River Infrastructure seems to make you a little embarrassed. You will never be able to make money." Hearing the words of the eldest son who has high hopes, Li Chaoren is rare and serious. Replied to his son.

"Father, this...?"

...

"Daddy... Victor is also a little anxious, please don't worry, Zeju will understand as long as he calms down." The daughter-in-law, who is very fond of Superman, couldn't help but gently pull beside her husband. After giving a hand, he smiled and said.

"Forget it, it seems that the experience is not enough, think about it tonight, don't sleep if you don't understand it." Superman glanced at his extremely satisfied daughter-in-law, and sighed.

"Then daddy, rest early!"

"Father, good night!"

"Humph……"
