Chapter 787 The Ancient Shi Huaiya Family Was Trembling with Fear!

Deep Water Bay Mid-Levels Villa.

The Bao Family.

When Li Jiacheng was shocked by the Imperial Group and Sir Yang's silent acquisition of Wheelock & Co., Bao Yugang, Su Xiwen, Wu Guangzhen and others had just returned to the villa by car.

While they were in the car, they had learned from the Hong Kong Radio that the Imperial Group had acquired all the shares from the Zhang family, the largest shareholder of Wheelock, and the Macden family, the second largest shareholder. In addition, the Imperial Group also acquired Wheelock shares. The combined controlling stake of Wheelock A shares and B shares has reached 51%, which means that the Imperial Group has swallowed up Wheelock & Co., the third largest foreign company in Hong Kong.

In addition, they also heard that the new head of Wheelock is John Pao.

The former vice chairman of Huifeng Bank, who had retired, was invited by Sir Yang to return to Hong Kong to serve as the new head of Wheelock.

This news.

When they were in the car, Bao Yugang, Wu Guangzhen and others were shocked.

They knew that the Empire Group had the strength to swallow up Wheelock, but they could never imagine how the Empire Group could swallow it up quietly, which was what made them feel scared.

"Father, did the Empire Group just swallow up Wheelock?" Wu Guangzhen looked at Bao Yugang in shock.

Bao Yugang and Wu Guangzhen were standing outside.

The place they were looking at was the Yang family's villa in Repulse Bay.

"I've just heard about it."

Since his father Bao Zhaolong passed away from a heart attack in November last year, Bao Yugang has recovered from the initial discomfort and has focused his energy on the company.

Bao Yugang didn't expect that Chen Songqing's Jianing Group would become like this.

In fact, Chen Songqing had approached him many times before, hoping to cooperate with Global Shipping.

Bao Yugang could also see that Chen Songqing was a bit shady and did not agree to cooperate with the other party. This time, Chen Songqing's Jianing Group owed a debt of 10 billion Hong Kong dollars, and even when Chen Songqing killed someone, in Bao Yugang's opinion, he did not make a mistake in the first place.

At first, many media described Chen Songqing's Jianing Group as the second largest Chinese business empire in Hong Kong. In fact, compared with Sir Yang's Empire Group, it is really far behind.

Chen Songqing wanted to tell all Hong Kong people that he was the richest Chinese tycoon in Hong Kong.

However, outsiders like them had no idea how much money Sir Yang had and what strength the Empire Group had, just like this time, the Empire Group could swallow up this foreign company quietly.

Once upon a time.

Bao Yugang proposed to abandon the boat and land.

In addition to predicting that the global shipping industry was about to decline, which might take a long time, he wanted to transfer funds to land, and naturally also targeted Wharf & Co., Hutchison Whampoa, and even Wheelock & Co., etc.

He valued Wharf & Co. the most, and he felt that he had the strength to swallow it.

As for Hutchison Whampoa, he had thought about it before.

Wheelock & Co.

He had not thought about it, and did not expect that the Empire Group would swallow it up so easily. This made Bao Yugang really regret why he did not pay attention to Wheelock & Co.

"Father, I just heard a lot of inside information. It is said that John MacDeng, the boss of Wheelock & Co., has lost a lot of money in the shipping industry and owes tens of millions of dollars in debt. He originally hoped to discuss with the Zhang family to solve those debts. The Zhang family did not want to cooperate with John MacDeng. As a result, the Zhang family and the MacDeng family had irreconcilable conflicts. In the end, both parties gave up their shares in Wheelock & Co., and it was easily swallowed up by the Empire Group."

Wu Guangzhen just learned this news from a reporter friend.

It's really a pity to think about it now.

The Empire Group only spent a little more than 2 billion Hong Kong dollars to swallow up the third largest foreign company in Hong Kong.

"The conflict between the Zhang family and the Macden family has existed for a long time. Whether it is John Macden or Zhang Yuliang, they have wanted to give up Wheelock & Co. several times, but they didn't expect that they would encounter so many problems this time, and the Empire Group offered a good acquisition price, so it was swallowed up by the Empire Group." Bao Yugang on the side also said.

"Father, isn't that a pity? If we had known at the beginning, we would have made a move in advance, and Wheelock & Co. would have belonged to our Bao family."

Bao Yugang felt it was a pity.

He really didn't think about swallowing up Wheelock & Co. again.

In history, he only thought about making a move after seeing the Nanyang tycoon Qiu De make a move.

"Guangzhen, I can only say that Sir Yang is very powerful."

Now Bao Yugang can't see Sir Yang through more and more.

When his father was alive, Sir Yang came several times on purpose, and each time he chatted with his father alone. Later, his father passed away, and Sir Yang personally paid condolences, and now the two sides have no contact again.

Bao Yugang really doesn't understand Sir Yang.

Before Dong Haoyun left, he dared to entrust the Dong family and Orient Overseas to Sir Yang, which shows that Dong Haoyun trusts Sir Yang very much.

Bao Yugang knew that the Dong family and Sir Yang did not really communicate much, but Miss Zhou Kaixuan next to Sir Yang was known by the Dong family.

From the perspective of Dong's Orient Overseas, it seems that there is no problem for the Dong family to entrust Sir Yang.

Originally, Orient Overseas owed 20 billion Hong Kong dollars and had already touched the serious debt red line, but with the help of the Empire Group, the Dong family and Orient Overseas successfully overcame the difficulties.

"Father, Sir Yang is really amazing. When others were paying attention to the cases of Chen Songqing and Jianing Group, Sir Yang directly swallowed up Wheelock."

At this time, Wu Guangzhen had to admire Sir Yang.

"Let's consolidate our own industry."

Bao Yugang knew.

Wheelock & Co. was acquired by the Empire Group because of its debts in the shipping industry. The First Shipping Group under the Empire Group, because the Empire Group acquired Wheelock & Co., the shipping industry's carrying capacity will definitely increase again, which forced Bao Yugang to speed up and get rid of the First Shipping Group under the Empire Group.

Otherwise, it won't be long before Global Shipping is really caught up by the First Shipping Group.

. . .

The Peak Villa.

The Shi Huaiya Family.

At this time, John Shi Huaiya, wearing reading glasses, was sitting there, looking at the night view of Victoria Harbour in the distance.

He had learned that Sir Yang of the Empire Group had officially announced that he would swallow up Wheelock & Co., the third largest foreign company in Hong Kong.

John Shi Huaiya was shocked and began to feel scared.

The four major foreign companies in Hong Kong.

In 1978, Hutchison Whampoa was first sold to Empire Group and Sir Yang by Huifeng Bank and Shen Yi.

The next year, Empire Group spent 10 billion Hong Kong dollars to directly swallow up Hong Kong's largest foreign company, Jardine Land Group. Even the then boss of Jardine Land, Niu Bijian, committed suicide, and the Joseph family, the major shareholder of Jardine Land, was forced to leave Hong Kong and return to Country Y for development.

Then, four years later, Empire Group quietly swallowed up Wheelock & Co.

In John Shi's opinion, Empire Group must have had some time to negotiate with the first and second largest shareholders of Wheelock, and only officially held a press conference today to announce it.

The four major foreign companies in Hong Kong all have a long history of development. To be able to become the four major foreign companies in Hong Kong, both the scale and strength are not simple.

Now the top three foreign companies have been swallowed up by Empire Group.

As for the remaining Swire Group of the Swire family, it is impossible for John Shi, as the fifth-generation head of the Swire family and the current chairman of Swire, not to be afraid?

When the Empire Group swallowed up Jardine Matheson Land, the Swire family began to use various methods to control the controlling rights of Swire to avoid being swallowed up by the Empire Group like Hutchison Whampoa and Jardine Matheson Land.

From now on, the controlling rights of the Swire Group of the Swire Group are indeed very safe. Even if the Empire Group and Sir Yang covet Swire Group, they have no way to do it.
