Chapter 811 Unrealistic Fantasy

Although Lawrence Kadoorie was over eighty years old, his eyes were not cloudy and were still clear and bright.

As the third largest shareholder of Heung Kong Telephone Company, the Kadoorie family naturally expressed concern about what happened in the past two days.

The matter has already happened, and it is useless to pursue the cause. The point is that now the stock god Xia Yu has spoken out to restore the loss, it is impossible for Lawrence Kadoorie to ignore it.

Anyway, with the attitude of Lawrence Kadoorie all along, that is, try not to provoke Xia Yu, and make friends if you can.

However, although the Kadoorie family is in Kowloon like Xia Yu, they have little to do with Xia Yu, and because of the rigid and even hostile relationship between Xia Yu and the British capital, the Kadoorie family couldn't find any chance at all.

Later, because the Marco Polo Hong Kong Hotel in Kowloon Harbour City was in a competitive relationship with the Peninsula Hotel, and the Hong Kong Electric Lighting Company and China Electric Power Company were also in a competitive relationship, Lawrence Kadoorie directly gave up his original positive attitude towards Xia Yu. , subconsciously regarded Xia Yu as an opponent.

So now facing Wang Qi who came to you, Lawrence Kadoorie was not enthusiastic and said lightly: "Mr. Wang Qi, the equity of Heung Kong Telephone Company can be sold, but the price must be right. We bought shares at a high price, no Maybe let's get our money back, right?"

Wang Qi's eyes flashed, and he retorted with a light smile: "No, Mr. Kadoorie, investment is all risky, if you make a profit, you will lose. For example, now, the Hong Kong Telephone Company is being resisted by the market, which is normal. "

"The Kadoorie family holds 3.16 million shares of Hong Kong Telephone Company. Before I came, the stock price was 17.2 yuan per share, and according to the current downward trend, it is estimated that the stock price has fallen below 17 yuan. I also understand your difficulty, so we are willing to bid seventeen yuan to take over."

In Wang Qi's opinion, this price is very high, and it definitely gives Lawrence Kadoorie face.

But when Lawrence Kadoorie heard this, his face suddenly turned down, and he shook his head and said, "Mr. Wang Qi, you are so disingenuous. A few days ago, the stock price of Hong Kong Telephone Company was still 35 yuan. Half of them didn't come out."

"You and I both know that, as a monopoly in the telecommunications industry, the Hong Kong Telephone Company has the exclusive right to operate local telecommunications in Hong Kong, and there is definitely no problem with its revenue. No matter how noisy the citizens are, they still have to use it. The impact of the closing is not great, even if the stock price is very low now, it will rebound in the future."

"If you came to buy it a few days ago, then I would at least give a premium of 30% on the basis of 35 yuan per share."

"Now I can only accept the price of thirty-five yuan per share,

If it's too low, I won't sell it! "

This time, it was Wang Qi's turn to look bad, his eyes fixed on Lawrence Kadoorie.

The latter looked at Wang Qi calmly, obviously his words were his true thoughts.

Wang Qi couldn't help but want to laugh. In this situation, Lawrence Kadoorie also talked to him about the future of the Hong Kong Telephone Company, calling such a high price, making it clear that he did not want to sell it.

The price difference has more than doubled, and no matter how much we talk about it, we will talk about the stock price in the twenties.

Thinking about the current stock price and downward trend of Xiangjiang Telephone Company, if Wang Qi bought it at the stock price of more than 20, it would not be considered credit, and he would lose the face of Chairman Xia Yu.

Therefore, Wang Qi's face became solemn, and he said firmly: "Mr. Kadoorie, you are making an unreasonable request. If you say so, then any investment of the Kadoorie family will not lose money. Do you think this is realistic?"

Lawrence Kadoorie showed his innocence, and spread his hands and said, "I didn't mean that, but the equity we hold in Hong Kong Telephone Company was not purchased by leveraging financial leverage, so it doesn't matter if I sell it or not, I don't care about Hong Kong. The phone company's present, I'm bullish on its future, that's all."

"So you can't let me lose, can you?"

Speaking of this, Wang Qi has deeply realized that Lawrence Kadoorie does not intend to fulfill his wishes, and he cannot even reach an agreement on his views. The result of the negotiation will definitely be unsatisfactory, and there will be a problem that he cannot accept. s price.

Therefore, Wang Qi immediately adjusted his strategy, his attitude became indifferent, and even brought a hint of threat.

"Mr. Kadoorie, I can understand that you are saying that the Kadoorie family has enough funds to wait for the Hong Kong Telephone Company to get out of the quagmire again, is that so?"

Lawrence Kadoorie was keenly aware of the change in Wang Qi's attitude, frowned slightly and nodded slightly and said, "That's also understandable."

Wang Qi said with a sneer: "Mr. Kadoorie, I have a completely different opinion from you. I think that the share price of Hong Kong Telephone Company will only get lower and lower until the problem is completely solved. It is easy to be less than ten Hong Kong dollars a share."

"It may be worth seventeen Hong Kong dollars now, but it's hard to say later..."

"Mr. Kadoorie, do you want to think about my price again?"

After speaking, Wang Qi looked at Lawrence Kadoorie quietly, waiting for his decision.

Lawrence Kadoorie frowned, and a fierce struggle broke out in his heart.

According to his price of 35 Hong Kong dollars per share, the 3.16 million shares in his hands can be worth 110 million Hong Kong dollars.

But according to Wang Qi's bid, it would be cut in half, and it would be reduced to 53.72 million Hong Kong dollars.

The difference is more than 50 million Hong Kong dollars!

The assets of the Kadoorie family are now more than one billion Hong Kong dollars, which is less than 50 million Hong Kong dollars. Although it will not hurt the Kadoorie family, it will have an impact. I really think that the money is easy to make now!

Another, the largest shareholder of Heung Kong Telephone Company is the Swire Group. If he sells his equity to Wang Qi, he will offend the Shi Yahuai family. The Shi Yahuai family was offended to death.

However, Lawrence Kadoorie also noticed that Wang Qi's attitude had become tougher, and he obviously vowed not to give up until his goal was achieved.

Thinking of Xia Yu behind Wang Qi, Lawrence Kadoorie was also a little worried.

So he thought about it for a long time, took a step back to show his attitude, and said, "Mr. Wang Qi, your price is really too low, but I also want to make friends with you, so I made a concession and lowered the price to thirty Hong Kong dollars, this is the lowest price, if you are not satisfied, then I am sorry.”

In Lawrence Kadoorie ideal, nearly 16 million Hong Kong dollars has been conceded, the concession is definitely big enough, and the attitude is also very low.

But Wang Qi was still dissatisfied. He said quietly, "Mr. Kadoorie, you are embarrassing me. Our chairman's face is not so cheap."

"So, you might as well think about it for two more days, what do you think?"

"Okay, I'll think about it carefully."

...

Watching Wang Qi's car leave, Lawrence Kadoorie frowned and sighed, feeling very bad.

A difficult problem appeared in front of him. No matter whether he sold it or not, he would offend people. What kind of thing is this?

"After all, it is not the way to hold this equity in our hands. Let's ask the Shi Yahuai family if they want it. If they are willing to take over at a suitable price, then it would be great!"

After thinking about it, Lawrence Kadoorie went back to the office and called the Shi Yahuai family, then prepared two small gifts and set off for the Shi Yahuai family residence.

He is British after all, and an ally of the Shi Yahuai family. Even if he offends Xia Yu, he does not want to offend the Taikoo consortium with similar strength, and the British-owned alliance headed by the Taikoo consortium today.

...

However, on Xia Yu's side, seeing Wang Qi returning with a somewhat unhappy face, Xia Yu already had a guess in his heart, and he asked directly, "Is the Kadoorie family not willing to sell it?"

Wang Qi looked ashamed and bowed his head and said, "Chairman, I'm sorry that things didn't work out, Lawrence Kadoorie was confused..."

After quietly listening to Wang Qi's story, Xia Yu sneered, patted Wang Qi's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Okay, don't blame yourself, I didn't expect Lawrence Kadoorie to be so tough, it seems that It's my face that's not easy to use."

"If that's the case, then there's no need to give him face. Doesn't Lawrence Kadoorie claim to be good at money? Let's see how much energy he has in the stock market."

"Send someone to engage in a listed company run by the Kadoorie family."

"On the other hand, try the attitude of the Shi Yahuai family again. If the Shi Yahuai family will let go, then Lawrence Kadoorie will likely be resigned."

Wang Qi nodded and said, "I understand that the reason why Lawrence Kadoorie insists on holding on is that he believes too much in the British-owned alliance headed by the Taikoo Group. Then we will break his expectations."

Xia Yu picked up the teacup and blew away the white mist, took a sip and let out a comfortable breath, and said with a chuckle, "It's time to break their unrealistic fantasy, hehe..."
