Looking at the words of Zeng's younger sister and the manager of Xiangjiang branch of Huajin company, everyone at the scene looked at them one after another. Obviously, Li Feng's acquisition of Standard Chartered has opened up the relationship between Xiangjiang and Huaxia, which made a lot of rich people envy.
For example, a bank with the right to issue notes in Xiangjiang, such as standard chartered, is definitely the focus of government monitoring. Without the support and consent of the government, even if you really control the equity, it is very troublesome to operate smoothly.
Now, Li Feng's acquisition of Standard Chartered actually faces two biggest difficulties, that is, the support of the governments of Huaxia and John Bull. As long as he can get the consent of the two governments and rely on more than half of the shares, it will be easy to control standard chartered.
At this time, whether Xiangjiang, Huaxia or the British government opposes or even passes some regulations, it will eventually fall short of success.
In this regard, Li Feng naturally understood that as early as after taking the shares of the three white knights, Li Feng began to take action and first contacted the Chinese government.
After all, Li Feng is now the largest foreign investor in China, and has also taken shares in the first private bank in the mainland. He has a harmonious relationship with the mainland government and has finally been recognized by the government.
On the contrary, it is a bit troublesome in the UK. Now the news of Standard Chartered's acquisition has caused an uproar in the UK
John Bull may still be silent in the glory of the sun. Standard Chartered was once their pride. At this time, it suddenly came out that it was acquired, which naturally caused a shock from all walks of life in Britain, and the voice of opposition was still very loud.
……
Another point is that the management of Standard Chartered and a group of British shareholders, especially the management led by the original Goldstone family of Standard Chartered and the shareholders who support them, are even more opposed and have even begun to take action.
It is said that the government has begun to lobby the government in the hope that the government can prevent Li Feng's acquisition. The main thing is to beat the management and management rights. After all, Li Feng's acquisition of shares is a foregone conclusion, so we can only think of ways in terms of management and management rights.
Similarly, Li Feng is also taking action. For example, he has already started to contact all the leaders he met in the UK, including the royal family and the prime minister's office. Li Feng has already passed the phone, hoping that they can turn a blind eye. Otherwise, how else did Li Feng receive the news.
In addition, in the United States, Li Feng contacted a number of American tycoons, including Rockefeller and Roosevelt, and asked them to help pull the strings, hoping to completely control standard chartered as soon as possible.
With the help of all parties, the US imperial government naturally supports Li Feng's acquisition. Even President zipper (,) ton has publicly stated his position, hoping that the British government can allow it, saying that this is a normal business behavior and does not involve other things.
It can be said that even if Li Feng has now obtained the status of major shareholder, there is still a final stage in the tense game. Li Feng is also ready to wait until the reception here is over, and then he will rush to London. At this time, it is time for him to make efforts in London.
Although he had known the result, Li Feng was not happy to hear what they said at this time.
The younger sister of the Zeng family is an executive of Standard Chartered in the Asia Pacific region. In addition to the influence of the Zeng family, the meaning is self-evident. Obviously, those managers in the Asia Pacific region have begun to stand in line, and the younger sister of the Zeng family obviously represents some people. Similarly, the statement of Huajin company makes Li Feng happy.
……
"Congratulations, John. It seems that you are only one step away from completely controlling Standard Chartered." Master Qiu deba couldn't help laughing and congratulating Li Feng.
"Little John, next we'll look at you. Standard Chartered has always been the pride of the British financial sector. I hope you can control standard chartered as soon as possible." Li Chaoren echoed one after another.
"Thank you for your encouragement. I hope I won't let you down."
“…”
It has to be said that at this time, Li Feng's half of Chinese descent played a role. After all, the people present were basically Chinese. Coupled with Li Feng's strong strength, they soon received congratulations from the people present. At least these people can be regarded as supporting Li Feng's complete control of the acquisition.
"Thank you... Standard Chartered needs your support in the future. I hope we can all cooperate happily!" Facing the support of many leaders, Li Feng also made a modest statement, which was recognized by everyone.
After some commercial nonsense, Li Feng, as the host, will also leave. After all, he has to greet others. He can't skip the rest in order to deal with the big guys.
"Everyone, I'll leave first. I'll walk around. You must have a good time."
"Haha... John, don't worry. The Felix restaurant of the peninsula hotel is famous. We won't let it go. Besides, the owners of the peninsula are here. Don't worry."
"Just..."
“…”
Everyone agreed. Yes, Michael Kadoorie, the owner of the Peninsula Hotel - the contemporary owner of the Kadoorie family, chatted with everyone.
……
"Hello, Mr. Li!"
"This is President Chen..."
"Hello, Mr. Li!"
"This is Mr. Sun..."
“…”
Accompanied by Li Shanquan, Li Feng wandered around the scene and greeted all kinds of people from time to time. Those business leaders greeted Li Feng respectfully, which burst Li Feng's sense of vanity.
"Boss, this is Mr. Chen Qitai, chairman of baozi international and his brother Mr. Chen Hanjie." Li Shanquan suddenly introduced Li Feng to a pair of burly middle-aged men.
"Oh... Hello, Mr. Chen, I'm St. John Lee, and my Chinese name is Li Feng." Li Feng's eyes lit up and then introduced himself with a smile.
"Hello, Li Sheng. This is Chen Qitai."
"I'm Chen Hanjie..."
"Baozi, I've heard of it. It's said to be the first brand of women's clothing in China." Li Feng replied with a smile.
Speaking of baozi, Li Feng naturally knows that baozi has been investigated, especially when he wanted to buy spring department store before. Who makes the domestic Spring Department Store dominated by baozi.
……
"Hehe... Li Sheng, I heard that you are going to buy spring department store. If you can really buy it, we may be partners at that time. I wish you in advance."
"Ha ha... President Chen is very well informed. I hope he can do as you said."
“…”
It's a good impression to have contact with baozi's Chen brothers, but to be honest, Li Feng is really a little excited about baozi. After all, Baozi is developing very well in China. At this time, there are few foreign products in the domestic luxury market, and baozi is at the top.
However, the limitation of baozi is obvious, that is, with the continuous influx of major fashion luxury goods later, Baozi's market share continued to decrease, and finally slowly declined.
In Li Feng's view, Baozi's biggest mistake is to move the group's headquarters to China. In addition to saving foreign design departments, the rest are completed in China.
Although in this way, Baozi occupied the initial market by relying on the domestic environment, it made baozi maintain the hat of "fake foreign brand", and finally fell into the wave of the continuous influx of top luxury goods in the world to occupy market share.
If baozi still maintains the initial foreign brand strategy, in Li Feng's view, Baozi is actually very good. Think about those luxury brands in Europe later, which one is not making a lot of money at home.
……
"Sister Qiong, Hello, long time no see!" Thinking about baozi, Li Feng saw he chaoqiong, the gambling king's beloved daughter, coming with several people, and immediately said hello with a smile.
"Hello, John. Let me introduce you. My brother won't say anything. These two are Lin brothers of Malaysia Genting group, brother Lin Guotai and brother Lin Zhihua."
"Oh... Hello, you two, Genting group. I've heard about it for a long time. Welcome to come!" After listening to he chaoqiong's introduction, Li Feng also greeted with a smile.
Whether the former baozi Chen brothers or the current Yunding Chen brothers, Li Feng is also interested in the projects behind them.
