Chapter 1018 Want a Bank?
After the group entered Qiu's living room and sat down one after another, Xia Yu found a topic and chatted with Qiu Deba. Qiu Deba was also very curious about Xia Yu's legendary experience and took the initiative to ask from time to time.
Qiu Deba married two wives and had three sons and eleven daughters in total. Apart from the married daughter, there are now three sons and four daughters in the family.
Among them, the eldest son is Qiu Jinshan, a middle-aged man over forty years old. From the appearance, he is an old and steady person. According to Xia Yu's investigation, Qiu Jinshan's ability is not bad. He serves as a director of the Qiu Group and directly manages One of the three major listed companies of the Qiu Group, the Central Industry Co., Ltd., assists Qiu Deba in managing the family business.
The second son is Qiu Jinliang, wearing a pair of golden glasses, over 30 years old, fair-skinned, looks like a gentleman, quite Confucian businessman temperament, assists the family in running the Malaysian hotel group, a listed company.
As for the youngest son, he is only twelve years old and his name is Qiu Jinhai. He is a cute little boy, but Xia Yu heard the name of Qiu Jinhai in his previous life, and he became a well-known director and made many influential films. .
During the chat between Xia Yu and Qiu Deba, Qiu Jinshan and Qiu Jinliang listened quietly, obviously interested in some of the things Xia Yu told.
The youngest Qiu Jinhai couldn't sit still. He didn't seem to be sentimental about business.
Fortunately, dinner rescued him.
At seven o'clock, the sumptuous dinner was all served. Qiu Deba stopped talking and called Xia Yu and others to the table together.
Between pushing the cup and changing the cup, it was very lively.
The distance between the two sides narrowed a lot after a meal.
After dinner, Qiu Deba and Xia Yu went back to the tea table in the living room to chat again.
When the chat was warm, Xia Yu officially entered today's theme.
Xia Yu said bluntly: "Mr. Qiu, the equity of Taikoo Co., Ltd. is indeed very important to me. I hope you can give up your love and transfer the 7.8% equity held by the Qiu family to me."
Qiu Deba, who was originally smiling, smiled slightly, but did not agree immediately, but asked with a light smile: "Mr. Xia, haven't you already won Swire Airlines? Why do you still want to fight against the Shi Yahuai family? "
Xia Yu looked helpless and said, "Mr. Qiu, at first, I thought there would be nothing to do, but the world is unpredictable. Others ask me for help to deal with the Shi Yahuai family. already."
Qiu Deba moved in his heart, although he was curious who asked Xia Yu for help, but since Xia Yu didn't say anything vaguely, it was not easy for him to ask further.
On the contrary, he said helplessly: "Mr. Xia, your fight with the Shi Yahuai family is really a great fight. Just like before, in just two months, due to the loss of the backbone of Swire Airlines, the stock price of Swire Airlines plummeted. The market value has also dropped from a peak of more than 8 billion Hong Kong dollars to less than 6 billion Hong Kong dollars now.”
"You continue to fight against the Shi Yahuai family now, it seems that I won't quit, hey..."
Xia Yu heard the deep meaning of Qiu Deba's words, and he quickly and solemnly apologized: "Mr. Qiu, I am very sorry for this matter, because Swire Pacific and Swire Airlines have always been controlled by the Shi Yahuai family, so when the competition was over, I was I only focus on the Shi Yahuai family, and I really don't consider the losses of your other shareholders."
"But it's not too late to wake up now. I'm willing to buy the shares you hold at the original stock price. What do you think?"
Qiu Deba had a deep expression on his face, as if he was struggling violently in his heart.
Xia Yu thought for a while, and said in a soothing tone: "Mr. Qiu, it is inconvenient to tell you some things, but from my personal point of view, I am very willing to become close friends with the Qiu family, so I do not want to. See the Qiu family suffer again."
"I think that I have always believed in the Chinese. If you believe me, I suggest that you stop holding the relevant equity of the Taikoo Consortium, even if you don't sell it to me,
I also want you to sell as soon as possible. "
"This is my advice from the heart!"
Qiu Deba frowned, looked at Xia Yu, and found that Xia Yu's eyes were full of sincerity, not like a lie.
He realized that Xia Yu was not threatening him, and the anger that rose in his heart immediately dissipated, and he suddenly realized that there must be a bigger plan in it.
The battle between the Shi Yahuai family and Xia Yu, he is undoubtedly quite optimistic about Xia Yu, Xia Yu can take away Swire Airlines under the strict control of the Shi Yahuai family, then it will cause more harm to the Shi Yahuai family and the Swire consortium. Not impossible!
When he received Xia Yu's invitation, he had already initially decided to sell the equity to Xia Yu, and whether it was successful or not depends on Xia Yu's performance.
Now that Xia Yu suddenly said these words, Qiu Deba's mentality has changed again, and he wants to make friends with Xia Yu more and more.
After all, if the Swire consortium falls again, the only British-owned consortium that can still have great influence in Xiangjiang will be Wheelock.
Now Xia Yu's Jiuding Consortium is already a giant in Xiangjiang. If there are less constraints, it will definitely be the time when the dragon is in the world. It is undoubtedly the best result to become a partner with Xia Yu.
The result is already doomed, so it is undoubtedly better for him to get on the bus in advance.
Therefore, he first thanked: "Mr. Xia, first of all thank you for your reminder."
Then he continued: "You can also transfer the equity of Taikoo Co., Ltd. to you, but my Qiu family is not short of cash for the time being."
"The reason why I bought the equity of Swire Co., Ltd. at that time was to invest and obtain a hen that lays eggs, and secondly, to broaden the network and gain a broader development space with the help of the Swire consortium."
"If I sold the equity to you, I wouldn't be able to invest the funds anywhere, so I have the cheek to make a request."
Xia Yu made a gesture of invitation and said, "Please speak!"
Qiu Deba pondered for a moment, and said in a suitable tone: "You called me an outstanding banker before, but I'm ashamed to say it. Compared with Mr. Xia, who is a banker like me who has lost all the entrepreneurial banks?"
"But the banking industry is indeed an industry where my Qiu family has been able to rise. I also hope to continue to make great achievements in the banking industry, and my eldest son Jinshan is also very interested in the financial industry."
"So I hope to be able to exchange shares with Mr. Xia for the bank's equity."
After speaking, Qiu Deba looked at Xia Yu with a burning gaze, and when he saw Xia Yu's brows slightly wrinkled, his heart gradually lifted.
Xia Yu was indeed a little dissatisfied, and he understood why Qiu Deba gave such a big ceremony in the afternoon. His feelings were for his bank.
With Jiuding Bank as his foundation, even Bao Yugang and Huo Yingdong did not acquire the equity of Jiuding Bank. Now Qiu Deba made this request, which really made him unhappy.
It's just that Xia Yu was very human after all, and the trace of dissatisfaction in his heart was quickly suppressed by reason.
Xia Yu thought of the Qiu family's past.
Qiu Deba's father was a wealthy rice merchant and shareholder in several banks. In 1933, at the age of sixteen, Qiu Depu entered the OCBC Bank which his father co-founded. Later, in 1959, Jiu Jiu became the deputy general manager of OCBC Bank, but because of his small shareholding, Qiu Depu was unable to join the board of directors, so he decided to leave and seek another development.
Then in 1960, after leaving office, Khoo Teck Puat and several partners opened Maybank in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia with a capital of 10 million ringgit.
It took only six years, and by 1966, Maybank had already had 108 branches, and began to break the monopoly of foreign banks in Malaysia. Qiu Depu was recognized as an outstanding banker, Qiu family The foundation was also laid with the help of Maybank.
But the good times did not last long, because Star City became independent from Malaysia in 1965, and Khoo Teck Puat, whose roots were mainly located in Star City, became a thorn in the eyes of the Malaysian government.
The political hostility of the separation of Singapore and Malaysia spread, and the Malaysian government was behind the scenes. In 1966, rumors spread that Khoo Teck Puat borrowed money from his own bank without collateral, which led to a run on Maybank and was on the verge of collapse. , the Malaysian government seized the opportunity to forcibly take over, and then restructured Maybank in January 1967, and then became the largest shareholder of Maybank.
Although the Qiu family still holds a part of the shares of Maybank, how can they compete with a government?
The benefits are not his, and the pot didn't let him bear it less.
It was not until 1976 that he sadly resigned as a director of Maybank, and Maybank, which he founded, was completely owned by the Malaysian government.
Although Khoo Teck Puat lost Maybank, how could he give up after tasting the sweetness of the banking industry?
Therefore, he is still involved in the banking industry. For example, he runs the National Bank of Brunei with the younger brother of the Sultan of Brunei in Brunei.
However, due to the boycott of Star City and Malaysia, the National Bank of Brunei has not been able to obtain the banking licenses of Star City and Malaysia, leaving Qiu Deba with nowhere to use and feeling very aggrieved.
At this moment, Xia Yu had an idea, thought of something, and his brows gradually eased.
Qiu Deba, who had been closely watching Xia Yu, moved in his heart, and his already sinking heart rose again.
After a while, I only heard Xia Yu say: "Mr. Qiu, Jiuding Bank is not for sale and shoulders a heavy responsibility. I will not sell my equity to anyone. Before in Xiangjiang, Bao Yugang and others asked me and I did not transfer it. Even one share, so please forgive me!"
The relationship between him and Bao Yugang is well known, Xia Yu gave this example, Qiu Depu can't be angry even if he rejects him.
Just when Qiu Deba smiled reluctantly.
Xia Yu changed his words and continued: "But Mr. Qiu, with your old experience and creativity in the banking industry, if you don't run a bank, it will indeed be a waste of your talents."
"I also look forward to working closely with you in the banking industry."
"I think so, in addition to Jiuding Bank, we cooperate with other banks, and this bank is not bad, what do you think?"
