Chapter 784 Wheelock's New Boss Candidate! Yang Ming Recommends Bao Contract

Chapter 784 The new boss of Wheelock! Yang Ming recommends Mr. John Pao!!

Yang Ming discovered.

Compared with swallowing up Wharf & Co., Jardine Matheson, and even Hutchison Whampoa, it was much easier for him to swallow up Wheelock & Co., the third largest foreign company in Hong Kong.

Historically, it was much easier for Pao Yu-kong to swallow up Wheelock & Co. than Wharf & Co.

Why?

It was because the two major shareholders of Wheelock & Co. wanted to give up. Moreover, in history, only the wealthy businessman Qiu Debao from Nanyang targeted Wheelock & Co.

Now that neither Qiu Debao nor Bao Yu-kong targeted it, it would be much easier for Yang Ming to swallow up Wheelock & Co.

For Yang Ming, swallowing up Wheelock & Co. now is the first step.

"Lin Xiuzhi, immediately notify Ma Shimin, Wei Li, Li Caixin, Bao Fuda, Xia Boyin, Wei Peter, Mou Shili, Mannix, Albert and others to come to the meeting room of the Empire Group headquarters."

"Yes, boss."

Lin Xiuzhi immediately called Ma Shimin and others.

Yang Ming was negotiating with Mai Lisi on the side.

Now the acquisition of Wheelock & Co. is the first step. Next, the selection of the new boss of Wheelock Group is the top priority.

"Boss, I have been considering the general manager of Wheelock Group these days."

Now Ma Shimin and others have their own positions, including Ma Shimin himself who has moved several times.

From the general manager of the Wharf Group to the general manager of the Jardine Group to the general manager of the Overseas Trust Bank.

Ma Shimin is a very capable person, but he must not be moved now.

Wei Li has been the executive president of Hutchison Whampoa and has never moved. Hutchison Whampoa is well managed by Wei Li, and the annual profit of Hutchison Whampoa is getting higher and higher.

After Li Caixin managed the First Shipping Group in Hong Kong, it has almost caught up with Bao Yugang's Global Shipping Group.

The rest, such as Bao Fuda, have been staying in the Landmark Group, and he has also managed it well.

Bao Fuda originally betrayed the Joseph family and Niu Bijian to join his team, but Bao Fuda is also very capable.

"I don't know if you want a white person or a Chinese person to take the position, boss?"

Chinese?

Yang Ming wants to use him.

Now Huo Jianning, Yuan Tianfan, Li Huimin, Liang Botao, Zheng Haiquan, etc. are all growing up, and it is impossible for them to be promoted to the current high position all at once.

"Let's choose a white person."

White person?

Mai Li thought of several candidates.

It seems that none of them are suitable.

Wheelock Group was the third largest foreign trading group in Hong Kong, and its scale is not small. Now it is under the management of John MacArthur and has been greatly affected.

The scale of Wheelock Group is actually still ranked in the front among the current Empire Group.

Even, it is still ahead of the Wharf Group.

The selection of the general manager of the Wheelock Group must be made with great care.

"Boss, are you going to transfer from the big bosses of other major groups, or directly from the secretariat?"

Now that the Zhang family and the Macden family, the two original shareholders of Wheelock, have sold all their shares to the Empire Group, it means that the management of the two families will all withdraw from Wheelock.

Whether it is John Macden or the Zhang family.

In addition to the executives of these two families, Wheelock actually has other white executives and Chinese executives.

Among these people, there is no one who can really take this position.

Historically, after Bao Yugang successfully acquired Wheelock, he served as the chairman of the Wheelock Group during his lifetime.

After Bao Yugang was diagnosed with cancer, the Bao family was divided into four. Among them, Wharf and Wheelock fell into the hands of Wu Guangzhen. Since then, the chairman of Wheelock has become Wu Guangzhen.

Now that Wheelock has been acquired by the Empire Group, it has nothing to do with the Bao family and Wu Guangzhen.

"Merrith, I already have a candidate. Of course, it's also a transitional period."

Transitional period?

"Is it still Mr. John Macden?"

What can I say about Macden?

He is still very capable, but he insisted on developing the shipping industry, which is why he made Wheelock like this.

He sold all his shares to the Empire Group, and the Empire Group could also hire him as the head of Wheelock.

Yang Ming shook his head and said, "Mr. Macden himself has given up Wheelock, and it is impossible for him to manage Wheelock again."

"Boss, who is that?"

"Mr. John Bao."

John Bao?

Merrith was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Who is John Bao?

John Bao was originally the vice chairman of Huifeng Bank and had always been Shen Yi's deputy. However, John Bao retired and returned to Country Y last year.

John Bao has worked in Huifeng Bank for so many years and is very capable. If he hadn't met Shen Yi, he would have had the opportunity to become the head of Huifeng Bank.

"Boss, didn't he retire and go back to London?"

"He has returned to Hong Kong."

Historically, in order to successfully restructure the Jianing Group, Chen Songqing hired the other party from Country Y to come back as a representative of the creditor bank with a monthly salary of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars and join the board of directors of the Jianing Group.

The historical restructuring of the Jianing Group failed.

The current Jianing Group is even gone.

However, it does not mean that John Bao cannot return to Hong Kong.

John Bao has lived in Hong Kong for a long time. If the Empire Group hires him to come back to Hong Kong with a high salary, the other party will still be very happy.

At this time, the monthly salary of the bosses under the Empire Group is the highest in Hong Kong, and even in the world.

Last night, Yang Ming had asked Barlow to meet John Bao in person.

John Bao learned that the Empire Group had swallowed up Wheelock, the third largest foreign bank in Hong Kong, and hired him to return to Hong Kong as the general manager of Wheelock Group with a high salary.

John Bao agreed immediately without thinking.

This kind of opportunity is very rare.

He just returned to London because he retired.

If there is still work in Hong Kong, he will come back.

When Mai Lisi heard that the boss actually hired John Bao to come back as the boss of Wheelock, he was really surprised.

However, he thought it was normal.

Now Peter Wei and even Mou Shili are directors of Huifeng Bank. If John Bao is included, it doesn’t count at all.

"Boss, you think further than I thought."

Mai Lisi still said with admiration.

"John Bao and Mou Shili are both in the transition stage. When there is a suitable candidate, they will take over their positions."

Mai Lisi nodded.

He thought that the boss's recommendation of John Bao was indeed very good.

11:30 am.

Empire Group meeting room.

In addition to Yang Ming, Mai Lisi, Tang Shilian, and Lin Xiuzhi, Ma Shimin, Wei Li, Li Caixin, Bao Fuda, Xia Boyin, Wei Peter, Mou Shili, Mannix, Albert and others attended today's meeting.

"Everyone, I have a big news to tell you."

When Ma Shimin and others were still wondering what the boss was going to tell them, they rested.

"The Empire Group has just officially signed a contract with the Zhang family, the largest shareholder of Wheelock & Co., and the Ma Deng family, the second largest shareholder, to acquire all their shares in Wheelock & Co., which means that our Empire Group has swallowed up Wheelock & Co., the third largest foreign company in Hong Kong."
