Chapter 273 Recommending Xia Boyin as the general manager of Xiangjiang Electric Light Company!
He Chaoxun has been staying in the Repulse Bay Mid-Levels Villa.
The Yang family's dinner has arrived.
After Yang Ming, Yang Jirong and his wife, He Chaoxun, and Guan Jiahui finished dinner together, He Chaoxun said goodbye to Yang Ming and Yang Jirong and his wife.
"Chaoxun, come and play when you have time."
"Auntie, I will come when I have time."
He Chaoxun got on her red Bayer car and left here.
. . .
Rest for a night.
December 28, 1978.
Thursday.
At this time, in the West, it was still the Christmas holiday.
In Xiangjiang, after the Governor's Office took a two-day holiday, the administrative agencies of Xiangjiang have resumed normal work.
Among them, the four major exchanges in Xiangjiang also officially resumed trading today.
Today, Yang Ming accompanied his parents to finish breakfast, got on the Rolls-Royce by himself, and Chen Zhenhua drove to the Federal Building.
Arrived at Empire Group.
Yang Ming entered the chairman's office.
Lin Xiuzhi first made a cup of hot coffee for Yang Ming.
Yang Ming took a sip there, his eyes always looking outside the building.
9:00 am.
After the stock information has been issued.
"Go call Mai Lisi."
"Boss."
After a while, Mai Lisi knocked on the door and came in.
These two days, although it was Christmas holiday, he, as the general manager of Empire Group, did not have a good rest.
In addition to handling the affairs of Empire Group, there are also affairs about Lan Kwai Fong Group, and now it has acquired Xiangjiang Electric Company.
Mai Lisi likes his busy work now.
Especially the trust of his boss Mr. Yang in him. In Mai Lisi's view, even if he works until death, what does it matter?
Seeing the look on Mai Lisi's face, Yang Ming said with some worry: "Mailisi, you should take a good rest when you need it. Apart from that, you can let others handle those small matters for you."
Yang Ming remembered that some senior professional managers in Nanyang were treated like dogs by the wealthy people in Nanyang, and they were on call 24 hours a day, so that some senior professional managers had high annual salaries and benefits, but many of them died suddenly in their forties.
Yang Ming didn't want Mai Lisi to be like that.
"Thank you for your concern, boss. I will pay attention to rest."
"Mailisi, we have acquired the Xiangjiang Electric Company. Who will be the general manager of this Xiangjiang Electric Company?"
Historically, the Xiangjiang Electric Company was nominally acquired by Li Jiacheng, but in fact, it was Mai Lisi and Ma Shimin who jointly planned the acquisition behind the scenes.
It takes more time and money for Li Jiacheng to acquire the Xiangjiang Electric Company.
It's different now. After Yang Ming clears all obstacles, it will be easier to swallow up Hutchison Whampoa than in the past.
That night.
As for swallowing up Hutchison Whampoa, Maris and others were also determined to win.
In recommending the candidate for the general manager of Hong Kong Electric Light Company.
In the end, it was Xia Boyin who was recommended by Weeley.
Xia Boyin was the business director of Hutchison Whampoa and one of the three leaders of Hutchison Whampoa.
However, now these three leaders.
Li Caixin went to the First Shipping Group.
Peter Wei served as the general manager of the Wharf Group.
The remaining Xia Boyin is still in Hutchison Whampoa.
Yang Ming also knew that after Li Caixin, Peter Wei, and even Xia Boyin were all transferred from Hutchison Whampoa, the original white management team of Hutchison Whampoa, which was mainly composed of Li Caixin and others, could no longer be the same as before.
In other words, Hutchison Whampoa is the company that truly belongs to Yang Ming.
"Boss, we discussed that night that Xia Boyin would take the position."
Xia Boyin?
Yang Ming really laughed.
He didn't expect that the two people who were most opposed to the major shareholders interfering in Hutchison Whampoa.
One Li Caixin and one Xia Boyin, are now being transferred away.
Now only Wei Li is left.
Wei Li had already surrendered to Yang Ming and swore allegiance to him.
Without the interference of those white management teams, Hutchison Whampoa gradually became dominated by Chinese capital.
Yang Ming felt that something was still missing.
"Then let Xia Boyin take the position! You let Wei Li talk to Xia Boyin first and see what he means. If he is unwilling, find a suitable candidate."
"Yes, boss."
Mai Lisi returned to the general manager's office, picked up the landline phone and called Wei Li in Hutchison Building.
. . .
9:30 am.
The stock markets of the four major exchanges in Hong Kong officially began trading.
Hong Kong Electric Company had just started to go public, and the original share price was 5.55 yuan per share, which was the share price on the trading day before Christmas.
When trading just started today, affected by the fact that Hong Kong Electric Company had been controlled by the Empire Group, many investors knew that this stock no longer had any value for speculation.
This means that investors in Hong Kong Electric Company can either continue to stay in Hong Kong Electric Company, become small shareholders, and wait for stock market dividends.
However, whether there is really a dividend depends on the situation.
In Hong Kong, it is difficult for ordinary small shareholders and small investors to get a dividend.
Historically, both Hutchison Whampoa and Hong Kong Electric Company have made a lot of profits. According to the ideas of the white management at the time, such as Li Caixin, those profits would not be used for dividends, but for the development of the company and the expansion of the company's scale, which led to great conflicts with Li Jiacheng.
In the end, those profits were taken away by Li Jiacheng and Cheung Kong Industries.
On the contrary, even if there are dividends for other ordinary small shareholders, it is impossible for them to get them.
So many ordinary shareholders of Hong Kong Electric Company were unable to sell their shares when they registered yesterday, and now they can only keep selling while the stock price is falling.
From 5.55 yuan per share, it quickly fell to 5.15 yuan per share.
And it is still falling.
According to market forecasts, it is possible to fall to three or four yuan per share.
These shareholders are abandoning the Empire Group and buying.
For the Empire Group, this price is indeed not expensive.
. . .
Hutchison House.
Executive President's Office.
Wei Li just received a call from Mai Lisi.
He already understood what Mai Lisi and the boss meant, and came out of the office and went directly to Xia Boyin's business director's office.
Xia Boyin was drinking coffee and processing documents in his office.
When he saw the executive president Wei Li coming over, Xia Boyin was a little surprised.
"President, what's the matter?"
"Director Xia Boyin, I have something to talk to you about."
"You go."
After Wei Li closed the door.
"The Empire Group successfully swallowed up the fourth largest listed company in Hong Kong, the Xiangjiang Electric Company, yesterday. At that time, I recommended you to be the general manager of the Xiangjiang Electric Company."
What?
Wei Li actually recommended him to be the general manager of the Xiangjiang Electric Company?
The Xiangjiang Electric Company is very large. It not only generates electricity, but also monopolizes the electricity of Hong Kong Island. It has almost all electricity-related businesses.
In addition, there is a certain amount of high-quality land reserves.
Historically, Li Jiacheng took a fancy to the Xiangjiang Electric Company, not only because the Xiangjiang Electric Company can bring a stable cash flow, but also because of the high-quality reserve land of the Xiangjiang Electric Company.
The Xiangjiang Electric Company monopolizes the electricity consumption of Hong Kong Island, so there are indeed a lot of reserve lands on Hong Kong Island that belong to the Xiangjiang Electric Company, and these are still very high-quality lands.
Xia Boyin knows what it means to be the general manager of the Xiangjiang Electric Company?
"President, I don't understand why you recommend me?"
He used to be in the same group with Li Caixin because his management philosophy is the same as Li Caixin's. In addition, he also wants to protect the interests of their white professional management in Hutchison Whampoa.
At the beginning, they were ambitious for Hutchison Whampoa like Wei Li, but after Hutchison Whampoa fell into the hands of Mr. Yang, the ambition disappeared.
What Xia Boyin didn't expect now was that Wei Peter, the political director, was recommended to be the general manager of the Wharf Group, and Li Caixin, the executive vice president, was recommended to be the general manager of the First Shipping Group. Before Li Caixin left Hutchison Whampoa, he also took more than a dozen core subordinates to the First Shipping Group.
Now that they are all gone, isn't Wei Li the only one left?
In Xia Boyin's view, Wei Li always felt as if he wanted to transfer them away on purpose.
"Xia Boyin, you have good abilities, of course I recommend you. If you don't want to, then the position of general manager of the Hong Kong Electric Company can only be given to others, so don't regret it then."
