Chapter 510: Killing a Chicken to Scare the Monkey? Target Kowloon Bus!

Yan Chengkun was thinking quietly.

Yang Ming went out of the ward.

Yan Jieling and her two siblings were outside. When they saw Sir Yang coming out, they lowered their heads and stood aside.

Yang Ming nodded to them and took Wei Li and Kayla away.

"Father, what's going on? What did Sir Yang say?" Yan Jieling asked hurriedly.

"Sir Yang said that he has taken control of China Bus. Now let the Yan family make two choices. Either continue to stay in China Bus as the second largest shareholder, but we can no longer interfere in the management of China Bus. Or sell the shares to him."

Yan Chengkun was still thinking about what Sir Yang said just now.

He knew that Sir Yang was right.

Although it seems a bit ruthless, the capital market is like that.

Back then, there were still six bus companies in Hong Kong, but in the end, he swallowed up the other three.

In addition, when his wife's nephew Huang Yaonan directly sold his shares to the Empire Group, Yan Chengkun knew that he had lost.

When he saw that his fellow villager Liao family also sold their shares to Empire Group, Yan Chengkun knew that nowadays, it was no longer the 1950s and 1960s.

"Father, do we really want to stay in China Bus or withdraw from China Bus?"

"Stay. But sell most of the shares to Empire Group!"

From what Sir Yang just said, he felt that Sir Yang was still very powerful.

Because Sir Yang's eyes were not only on the Hong Kong market, but also on the domestic and foreign markets, which meant that keeping these shares would be more valuable in the future.

In other words, from now on, China Bus will change its name.

Starting today, the surname will be Yang.

Yang Ming, Wei Li, and Kayla sat in a Rolls-Royce.

While in the car, Yang Ming said: "Based on my understanding of Yan Chengkun, he will not sell all the shares of China Bus."

"Boss, then we have a way to gradually dilute his shares."

As a professional manager, Wei Li knows all about this.

Yang Ming said: "No need to do that, I will not kill all the Hong Kong Huazi."

Now the Yan family only has more than 20% of the shares left, and it can no longer turn the tables.

As the Yan family gradually withdraws from the management, China Bus will have less and less of the other party's shadow, just like the other party's brother-in-law Huang Wangcai.

"Boss, now that China Bus has acquired it, only Kowloon Motor Bus will be left."

China Bus and Kowloon Motor Bus are separate.

Today, the Empire Group has successfully swallowed up China Bus, leaving Kowloon Motor Bus.

It is simpler in Wealthy's view.

In history, on November 1, 1981, Sun Hung Kai Properties, headed by Guo Desheng, announced a hostile takeover of Kowloon Motor Bus and absorbed Kowloon Motor Bus shares on the market, triggering a takeover war between the two parties.

Finally, Sun Hung Kai Properties purchased a total of 39.5% of Kowloon Motor Bus shares on November 7 and became the major shareholder.

The founder of Kowloon Motor Bus, Deng Zhaojian, does not have many Kowloon Motor Bus shares, but the shares of the Lei family are quite a lot.

If the Empire Group already controls 35% of Kowloon Motor Bus shares, and the shares of the major founders of Kowloon Motor Bus have not been combined, the Empire Group will already be the largest shareholder.

Wei Li was ready to take time to meet Deng Zhaojian of Kowloon Motor Bus, so there would be no problem.

When Yang Ming and Keira came to Empire Group.

Wei Li was ready to meet Deng Zhaojian first.

Deng Zhaojian was old, 85 years old this year. In the 1960s, he was awarded the title of CBE by the Queen and was already a knight.

This morning.

He just got up and his grandson Deng Yong came to see him.

"Grandpa, China Motor Bus was acquired by Empire Group."

China Motor Bus was acquired by Empire Group?

Deng Zhaojian was surprised.

In the early years, Kowloon Motor Bus and China Motor Bus were competitors, but they were separated later.

One monopolized the New Territories and Kowloon, and the other monopolized Hong Kong Island.

When the grandson showed the newspaper to Deng Zhaojian, who was wearing reading glasses, he found that it was true. The newspaper said clearly that Empire Group easily swallowed up China Motor Bus.

Yan Chengkun, a major shareholder of China Motor Bus, was so angry that he vomited blood and went to the hospital.

"Grandpa, will Empire Group take a fancy to Kowloon Motor Bus?"

As the saying goes, good things don't work, but bad things do.

On this New Year's Day, Deng Yongjiang didn't expect that he had guessed it.

At this time, a maid came over and said, "Sir Deng, a man who calls himself Mr. Wei Li is here to visit you."

Wei Li?

Hutchison Whampoa CEO?

Deng Zhaojian was supported by his grandson and came to the door and saw Wei Li in a suit.

"Hello, Sir Deng."

"Mr. Wei Li?"

Wei Li didn't send a visiting card in advance, he came directly.

Wei Li is very famous, and both grandfather and grandson know it well.

Then Wei Li was invited in.

After Wei Li and Deng Zhaojian sat down to the side and drank tea, he looked at the two people and said, "Sir Deng, I have something to discuss with you, but you have to be mentally prepared."

Seeing that Deng Zhaojian was so old, Wei Li was also worried if something happened.

"Mr. Wei Li, I'm fine. I don't know what you want to say?"

"Before the first day of the new year, Empire Group had already bought 35% of Kowloon Motor Bus shares and was already the largest shareholder of Kowloon Motor Bus. Now it has formally proposed to acquire the major shareholder of Kowloon Motor Bus."

35% of Kowloon Motor Bus shares?

Deng Zhaojian and his grandson were really surprised.

They didn't expect that they were really guessed.

"Sir Deng, I will give you and the Lei family and other shareholders some time to consider. If you agree to sell your shares to Empire Group, we are willing to increase the current share price by 20% to acquire them. If you don't want to, we will acquire them through additional purchases in the market."

Historically, Sun Hung Kai's acquisition of Kowloon Motor Bus was not as strong as the Yan family's counterattack against the acquisition of Great Eagle Group.

Now, Deng Zhaojian has understood the news after hearing it.

He did not hesitate too much at all. He has decided to sell the Deng family's shares in Kowloon Motor Bus.

"Mr. Wei Li, we are willing to sell our shares in Kowloon Motor Bus to Empire Group."

"Sir Deng, don't you need to consider it? I don't need you to reply so quickly."

"No, our Deng family has very few shares in Kowloon Motor Bus. However, I need to ask the Lei family and other shareholders what they think."

"Sir Deng, thank you for your help."

Since Sir Deng is so good at dealing with people, Wei Li doesn't need to say anything else.

Deng Zhaojian asked his grandson to send Wei Li out personally.

Deng Yongjiang saw Weeley get on the Bentley and leave, and hurried back to his grandfather and asked, "Grandpa, are you really going to sell Kowloon Motor Bus?"

The Deng family has more than just Kowloon Motor Bus, he also has other businesses.

In addition to Kowloon Motor Bus and Yau Ma Tei Ferry, Deng Zhaojian is also a shareholder of many large companies, but his holdings in these companies are not large, nor are they his main business.

These companies include Hang Tien Bank, Commercial Radio, Union Bank, Miramar Hotel and Investment Company, Kowloon Development, Pearl City Real Estate, Mercure Group Limited, Pan India Group Limited and China Entertainment Properties Limited, etc.

Historically, Deng Zhaojian served as an advisor to the Hong Kong Chinese General Chamber of Commerce. It is estimated that Deng Zhaojian left more than 200 to 900 million Hong Kong dollars in property when he died.

In Deng Zhaojian's view, since Sir Yang has set his sights on Kowloon Motor Bus, he must have taken it, and the Empire Group is already the largest shareholder. No matter how he, the Lei family and Sir Yang compete, how can they compete?

It's better to sell it directly.

Deng Zhaojian was very clear about how powerful Sir Yang was. It was Yan Chengkun who wanted to fight to the death because he didn't know how to live or die.

He had seen the fate of the Yan family.

Although the Empire Group did not intend to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, Deng Zhaojian did see that there was no need to make any other reactions.

"General Yong, we don't have many shares in Kowloon Motor Bus. It's okay to sell them. Why bother with Sir Yang. As for the Lei family, I still have to tell them, otherwise, the Empire Group will purchase more shares through the outside market, and the Lei family will suffer the most."
