Chapter 328： Happily too early

? There are two flowers and one branch each.

After Charles Keswick returned to the family, he told his father John Keswick about the situation and asked the family to inject a certain amount of money to rescue the market.

John Keswick is 62 years old and has two sons under his knees, the eldest son Henry and the second son Charles.

Old John took over the position of patriarch from his cousin, and the Jardine Consortium flourished in his hands. After being listed in 1961, it developed rapidly and its assets continued to expand, establishing its position as the number one British consortium in the Far East.

It's a pity that although old John was outstanding when he was young, he was so romantic. He didn't have his first son until middle age. Although he is only 61 years old now, his body is very poor, even five or six years ago. Up.

But the two sons can't provoke the big responsibility. Old John is selfish and doesn't want to give the position of the head of the family to others, he just wants to choose an heir from the two sons.

Taking precautions, Old John put his confidant absolutely in the position of the president of Jardine Group, put his other confidants in other core enterprises, and controlled remotely by himself to cultivate health and rest in order to live for a few more years, until two sons. Until the success of success.

Although he no longer manages the business himself, the old John also knows a lot about the various enterprises within the Jardine consortium.

It was he who judged that the Hong Kong Air Cargo Industry was promising at the beginning and invited the Governor to entertain him. Finally, through a secret transaction, he won the exclusive right to operate the air cargo industry. This was how the Jardine Air Cargo Terminal Company appeared today.

At this time, I heard the second son talk about the situation, and the old John, who had been accustomed to the wind and waves, looked calm and asked: "How much money do you need?"

Charles Keswick thought for a while and said: "There is still 14 million funds in the company. Before I came, other directors had also provided funds, so I think that we should spend 50 million."

After that, Charles Keswick looked at his father expectantly.

Old John heard the words and shook his head slowly. When Charles Keswick was disappointed, he said: "You are too simple to think. Don't consider other directors. It is stupid to put hope on others. I will give you Allocate one hundred million of funds to enter the account of the cargo station company in the name of Jardine Pacific, entrust the cargo station company to purchase stocks, and externally claim that the company will buy back stocks, understand?"

"In addition, contact other shareholders to buy their stocks!"

Charles Keswick was overjoyed but also a little confused. He didn't know what his father was doing so complicated. He opened his mouth and just wanted to ask. Old John shook his head and interrupted him: "You go back to the company now, as I said. Do it, and report to me immediately if there are special circumstances, and the funds will soon be transferred to the account of the cargo station company."

"Good father!"

Charles Keswick nodded respectfully, and then quickly left the living room.

As soon as Charles Keswick went out, Old John picked up the phone and dialed a number: "Hey, this is John Keswick, you send someone to immediately transfer 100 million yuan in funds..."

Putting down the phone, Old John's muddy eyes became sharp, and he smelled conspiracy.

For Jiuding Securities, as well as Xia Yu, the newly emerging Chinese rich man, old John certainly knew, and he also knew what power Xia Yu's energy would be when it was put on the stock market.

When Charles reported to him just now, he suspected that it was Jiuding Securities. Old John didn't say much, but he must have been Jiuding Securities in an instant.

At that moment, a sense of crisis lingered in his mind. This was his intuition that he had worked hard for many years in the business world, so he knew that there must be danger.

As for the motive and purpose of Jiuding Securities, Old John has speculations, but he is still not sure, but in his opinion, it is definitely not as simple as suppressing the stock price or short selling.

Now Jardine Pacific Air Cargo owns 35.85% of the shares of Jardine Air Cargo Station, and Jardine Pacific is 100% controlled by the Keswick family, so the equity belonging to the Keswick family is 35.85%.

This equity ratio can only be considered general for controlling the safety of the company. The safest way is to raise the equity ratio above 50%.

Jardine Air Cargo Terminal is a dominating structure. Other directors do not have much equity. If you add the equity of other shareholders, the entire board of directors owns about 49% of the equity.

But Old John is well aware of the complexity of people's hearts. In the face of money, other directors are likely to betray, so the safest and safest way is to have absolute controlling rights.

It is precisely this consideration that he will say that he wants to buy stocks in the actual name of Jardine Pacific, and the investment of 100 million yuan is to be foolproof.

After all, 35.85% is still 14.15% away from the 50% holding line. If the most undesirable thing happens, then the share price of Jardine Air Cargo Terminal Company will definitely soar. By that time, 50 million yuan of funds will be really scary. Sure enough!

He knew that Jiuding Securities had just raised 600 million Hong Kong dollars!

Such a large sum of money is too threatening!

"I hope it's not the worst..."

Old John let out a long breath, leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes.

...

Charles Keswick rushed back to the company with excitement, just in time to see Barton Hardman and others ending the press conference with a dark face.

After a brief exchange of information, Patton Hardman breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly said: "Charles, time is urgent, I have already contacted the securities company, and now we have to go there."

When Charles and others rushed to Eddie Securities, President Eddie immediately greeted him and said, "Mr. Barton, Mr. Charles, how are you!"

"Charles, this is Eddie Roman, the founder of Eddie Securities!"

Worried that Charles didn't know Eddie, Barton Hardman quickly introduced him.

"Hello Mr. Eddie! I will trouble you this time!"

Charles Keswick shook hands with Eddie and said.

"You're welcome, this is what I should do!"

Eddie said politely.

After a few polite words, Eddie immediately took Charles and Button to the place of operation and introduced the specific situation as they walked.

"We are ready, just waiting for your capital. Now the stock price has fallen to 9.12 Hong Kong dollars per share. If we don't resist, according to the other party's strength, it can fall below 9 Hong Kong dollars in five minutes at most!"

"I don't know how much capital you have prepared? Need to provide leverage?"

"There is no need for leverage, the funds will arrive immediately, and 100 million of funds are definitely sufficient!"

Charles refused without hesitation. UU reading www.uukANAshu.com

Eddie was stunned for a moment, and then showed a look of admiration, with a more respectful attitude.

Seeing Eddie's changes, Charles felt a sense of pride.

For the sake of safety, he does not intend to use financial leverage, and certain procedures are required to allocate funds. He does not want to waste time waiting. He wants to do it immediately and clean up the other party!

Soon, when the funds were in place, Charles and Patton looked at each other and immediately said, "Do it!"

Following Charles's order, the operator who was ready for a long time immediately put out the bill.

Charles Keswick clenched his fists and smiled confidently.

It’s a pity that Charles Keswick was too happy. In less than two minutes, the stock price began to rise after less than ten hands were acquired, and the increase seemed to start to increase. Charles just wanted to laugh happily, but saw Eddie. Roman frowned, and Charles couldn't help but squeak in his heart.
