Chapter 392： Do you think I am scared? (2

Because Xia Yu, who was in a whirlpool, took the initiative to hold a press conference and attracted the attention of all Xiangjiang people, even the stock market suddenly fell into a strange calm, enough to witness Xia Yu's influence.

Regardless of whether it is a stockholder or a financial institution, because of their vital interests, they don't dare to go crazy anymore. They want to see the situation clearly before doing anything, for fear of being tricked or missing the opportunity, so everyone wants to get first-hand information.

For a time, it can be said that the Eight Immortals crossed the sea, each showing their magical powers, and the undercurrent under the already turbulent Xiangjiang River surged.

Suddenly, a message circulated from Jiuding Securities Co., Ltd. that this press conference will be broadcast live by TV stations throughout the whole process, and Li's TV station was designated as the exclusive live broadcast platform.

As soon as the news came out, the people who followed the matter immediately turned on the TV and chose the channel of Li's TV station, waiting for the press conference to arrive.

Due to the fact that there are too many people who follow, although it has not yet entered the time of the press conference, at the same time period, Li's TV station's viewing market share has rushed to the first place in Hong Kong, and its share is still growing rapidly. This shows the effect of this press conference. The impact is far-reaching.

...

In the hustle and bustle, a temporary stage was quickly set up at the entrance of Jiuding Securities. Although Xia Yu, Wang Qi and others did not come out, the stage was already surrounded by people, including media reporters, and there were also many people eating melons.

In addition to this, there are reporters from all over Hong Kong Island on the road towards Jiuding Securities.

In front of the press conference stage, an open space was set aside. The open space was surrounded by a cordon. The security personnel of Jiuding Securities Co., Ltd. waited around the cordon to block everyone out. The only entrance left was an inspector. , As long as you bring a press card and other things to prove your identity, you can enter.

When everyone was waiting anxiously, a sharp-eyed reporter exclaimed: "Here is here, the stock **** is coming out."

As he exclaimed, everyone followed his line of sight and saw Xia Yu leading Wang Qi and others out of the company.

For a while, the crowd was in a commotion, and many people subconsciously wanted to squeeze forward, but they were stopped by security personnel who were always on alert, accompanied by warnings from security personnel from time to time.

"Everyone keep quiet! When will you be quiet, and when will the press conference begin."

Wang Qi took the lead on stage and said loudly with the microphone.

The commotion stopped as soon as he said this, everyone looked at him in unison, not daring to make any noise.

Wang Qi nodded in satisfaction, and then looked at the boss Xia Yu who was already on stage.

I saw Xia Yu nodded slightly, and then took Wang Qi and a group of high-level people to sit down.

"I am very glad that everyone is here to show their faces, and I would like to express my sincere thanks!"

Xia Yu took the microphone and said with a smile.

"Papa Papa..."

Whether it is active or passive, there was a warm applause immediately off the court.

After all, it was the boss who held the press conference in person, and of course their ghostly reporters would give it to this face.

And for such a long time, everyone knows that Xia Yu rarely appeared in front of the public on his own initiative, and Xia Yu basically did not attend the press conferences in the past, and the general manager of each company came forward.

I don’t know how many reporters are very excited now. After all, Xia Yu is not only a financial tycoon, he was a media tycoon before. It is the existence of reporters who need to admire them. If Xia Yu announces the recruitment of reporters, there will definitely be more than three. Two out of every reporters are willing to change jobs.

"Not much gossip, let's go directly to the topic!"

"Now, I announce a news to the public!"

Xia Yu's words were concise and concise, and his expression became solemn.

Below, all the reporters came secretly, watching Xia Yu attentively, and the camera in his hand was turned on all the way, for fear of missing a bit.

"I declare!"

"Jiuding Securities and Galaxy Fund jointly hold 62.2% of the shares of Heungjiang Wharf Company..."

"Wow... my god..."

"I lost, something big happened!"

...

Before Xia Yu's words were finished, there was a tumult on the court, and they were all stunned by Xia Yu's news, flashing lights one after another.

Despite the hustle and bustle off the court, Xia Yu remained unmoved and finished speaking. Fortunately, the announcement was not long, and the sound was blessed to suppress the noise.

...

In the Jardine Recreation Building, when he learned that Li's TV station could broadcast live, Old John turned on the TV and waited quietly.

It's just that although his face was calm, the two brothers Henry and Charles sitting beside him could still feel the anxiety and anxiety in his father's heart.

Not to mention their father, the two of them were also heavy at this time, with worry and anxiety flashing in their eyes.

Soon, the scene of the press conference appeared on the TV.

"Jiuding Securities and Galaxy Fund jointly hold 62.2% of the shares of Heungjiang Wharf Company..."

What Xia Yu said in his mouth came out clearly through the TV speakers.

It was just that after hearing the news, whether it was Old John, Niu Bijian, the two old men, or the Henry brothers, they all stood up with a scream.

Charles, with the most unstable mentality, blurted out in a panic: "How is it possible!"

His round eyes and a dull expression of disbelief showed that he was completely shocked.

"The Wharf!"

Old John only felt that his eyes were full of stars, and his mouth was muttering, an extremely depressed feeling surged into his heart, as if the sky was falling.

The result of an upsurge of breath is that people easily faint. For example, Old John is in this state now.

Seeing Old John's body swaying, he fell backwards, so that Henry and the others immediately reached out to help him, and shouted anxiously: "Father, father..."

"Call an ambulance!"

Just as Charles and others jumped anxiously, after more than ten seconds, Old John recovered and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm fine, you don't need to go to the hospital."

"Father, why don't you go take a look..."

Henry said with a worried look.

"I said nothing, there are more important things now!"

Old John flatly refused, and looked at the TV subconsciously.

"Stock god! Stock god! Stock god!..."

At this moment, it seemed to be shocked. I don’t know who first shouted a word of genius, and then everyone shouted in unison. The whole conference was full of neat and loud cheers. Even if it was only through the TV, Old John and others could Feel a shocking atmosphere.

It's just that, to them, this atmosphere is like a knife, constantly stabbing their wounds back and forth.

"father……"

Seeing Old John clenching his fists and clenching his teeth, his old face burst into blue veins, and his eyes fixed on Xia Yu's smiling face on the TV screen. Although Henry was also angry, he was more concerned. The father could not bear it, so he called out with a worried expression on his face.

Not only Henry, but even Niu Bijian and Charles looked at him worriedly, for fear that he could not stand the stimulation and would really faint.

"Hi...whee..."

Old John closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then spit out a long long, opening his turbid eyes again.

At this moment, there was still a trace of muddy color in his eyes, and the fierce light and evil spirit were constantly shining.

"Father, what should I do now?"

Charles Keswick asked anxiously.

Old John raised his hand to make a pause, and slowly said, "It's too late, let's finish reading it!"

As he said, watching the reporter's interview with Xia Yu on the TV screen closely, he wanted to know more about the situation so that he could deal with it easily.

It's just that no matter what Xia Yu answered, Old John was expressionless, his eyes fixed on him, motionless like a stone.

For a long time, Old John turned off the TV and looked at the people who were watching him closely. Finally, he looked at Niu Bijian and asked: "How many shares do we own in Wharf?"

Because of the information collected, Niu Bijian still has a deep impression. He replied without hesitation: "We control 18.9%, of which Jardine Holdings directly holds 5% and Land Group indirectly holds 13.9%."

As soon as these words came out, Henry Keswick and Charles Keswick, who were listening, immediately had two words in their minds: "It's over!"

Even Old John closed his eyes in despair.

It is indeed over. Like this shareholding situation, Wharf is no longer saved, and there is no need to save it.

Jardine Holdings is the absolute holding of the Keswick family, but the Land Group is not.

The Land Group is also a listed company and the largest real estate company in Hong Kong. It was founded in 1889 by Sir Paul Chater and James Johnston Keswick. It has been 89 years since.

After so many years, the Keswick family’s shareholding ratio has dropped to a very low level. Although the Keswick family is the largest shareholder, the shareholding ratio is only over 20%. The board of directors is not owned by the Keswick family. In a word.

The Land Group holds a 13.5% stake in Wharf, and the difficulty of the Keswick family’s operations has more than doubled after one level.

Even if they are allocated proportionally, the share of Wharf stocks belonging to the Keswick family in the Land Group is only about 4%.

And one thing is very important. It seems that although Wharf is a part of the Jardine Consortium and its position can be said to be in the core position, it does not have the shareholding ratio that matches the core position. Now it has been taken away. The Serk family’s direct loss may not seem to be much, but the impact on the Jardine consortium will be great.

The Jardine consortium is now controlled by the Keswick family, and the influence on the Jardine consortium will eventually be transferred to the Keswick family, affecting other aspects.

The relationship here is indeed more complicated. The companies within the consortium are intertwined, and the various relationships cannot be explained in a single word.

In short, this time, the Wharf was seized, which hit the Jardine Consortium and even the Keswick family too much!

Originally worked hard to calculate, because the momentum gathered by the Jardine Machine Group was shattered because of the tolerance, the blow was even more serious. The power was no longer enough to deter the wolves. The overturning crisis of the Jardine Group was coming soon!

"Chairman, this is the end of the matter. There is no way to take Wharf back. We can only recover some losses as much as possible. I suggest that we hold the Wharf stocks firmly, even if we cannot sell them later. Sell ​​it at a high price!"

Niu Bi insisted.

"But now they hold more than 60% of the shares, which is only a few percentage points away from 66.7%. If they hold more than two-thirds of the shares, we will not be able to prevent them from privatizing if we hold the shares and not sell them. risky!"

Henry Keswick looked ugly and pointed out the loopholes in Niu Bijian's opinion.

As soon as he said this, Niu Bijian's face sank. He also thought about this. The other party's shareholding ratio is too high. It is not difficult to increase the share of a few percentage points again. If the shareholding exceeds two-thirds, then the Jardine Consortium Jiuding Securities Co., Ltd. will be allowed to knead it without any resistance.

"Hold it first, even if it will be privatized in the end, it will cost them a higher price!"

Old John snorted angrily, obviously extremely angry in his heart, this feeling of being bullied and unable to resist makes him feel very aggrieved.

The only way now is to let Wharf's stock price rush upwards, and finally they cash out at a high price and leave Jiuding Securities Co., Ltd. bleeding heavily.

"Then father, we can't do anything about Wharf, but the situation of other companies will definitely be worse now, what should we do? We don't have enough funds!"

Charles Keswick asked anxiously.

Hearing this, the hearts of all the people present sank, and these words touched everyone's pain.

In order to acquire the shares of Jardine Machinery Group, 30% of the shares of Jardine Insurance Consulting Group were used instead of 150 million, but in the end more than 1.3 billion cash was released.

Although this money is spent on the one hand to complete the absolute holding of the Jardine Machinery Group, it is more important to complete the changes and influence brought by the holding.

The purpose is to break the Chinese-funded alliance, undermine the morale of the Chinese-funded, and enhance the power of the Jardine consortium, so that the enemy will be awe-inspiring and buy precious time for the Jardine consortium.

At the beginning of the announcement of victory, this effect did appear perfectly.

But it didn't take long before the news of the Wharf acquisition announced by Xia Yu was shattered.

It can be said that the more than one billion funds of the Keswick family were spent in vain!

Without the influence on the general trend, such a high share of equity will be meaningless!

On the contrary, the Chinese capital's offensive will be more fierce, and the current funds are simply not enough!

The enemy's offensive can be expected to be very rapid, but the ammunition I thought was sufficient, but because the situation was so bad, it became completely insufficient.

This problem is tricky!

"Stay steady first, grab the shares in Wharf for me, and delay their progress as much as possible, and then I will contact Shi Yahuai, I don't believe that he is really not worried!"

Old John said.

...

The press conference soon ended, Xia Yu also answered five questions, two of which were important to the reporters of Li's TV station.

"Boss, John Keswick's call."

As soon as I returned to the company, I heard Wang Qi who was answering the phone cover the microphone and said with a heavy face.

Xia Yu raised her eyebrows unexpectedly. He didn't expect to receive a call from Old John just after the press conference was held. This is interesting. Is this coming to Xingshi?

There was a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and Xia Yu answered the phone.

"Hey!"

"Xia Yu You are not keeping promises, really we dare not do anything to you..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the anger of Old John calling his name directly, and he relentlessly accused and questioned. It was around Xia Yu's promise last night that he would not actively attack the companies of the Jardine Consortium. .

Xia Yu understood that even if Old John's phone call had another purpose, the most important thing was to come to him to give up his anger, because as long as Old John was not stupid, he would definitely know that Wharf was seized as a foregone conclusion.

It's just that Xia Yu is not muddled. Old John's voice questioned made Xia Yu's face cold. He has never been questioned and scolded like this.

The clay figurine is also three-pointed, not to mention him in a high position?

Since the skin has been torn, there is no need to hide it. Xia Yu countered without hesitation: "John Keswick, do you think I'm scared?"
