Chapter 417： Open the blood basin again

If you swallow the milk company, Xia Yu is like taking the top ten tonic, but if you want to live well and develop well, you still need a good stomach.

Xia Yu had long aspired to become the real estate king of Xiangjiang, and it would be even better if he could become "Xia Bancheng".

But in the real estate industry, land is not enough. The key is to have sufficient development strength, which requires a strong construction company.

Nowadays, although there is a construction department under the Wharf Group, it is still too small compared to what Xia Yu thought.

In this way, the Golden Gate Construction Company under the Jardine Consortium was targeted by Xia Yu.

Golden Gate Architecture was founded by an Englishman named John Golden Gate in India in 1919. The main business of the company is construction and civil engineering. The types of projects include commercial office buildings, residential buildings, shopping malls, streets, bridges, stations, and sewers. Wait, he does almost everything. He is the chief builder of many projects in Hong Kong and the Asia-Pacific region, commonly known as the contractor in the industry.

Jinmen Construction was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in 1970, and the Jardine Consortium bought a small portion of shares from minority shareholders in 1969. Until Jinmen Construction went public, its weaknesses were exposed. Of course, the Jardine Consortium, which holds a huge amount of capital, Won't let it go.

In May 1975, the Jardine Consortium swallowed the Golden Gate Building and completely privatized it.

After being swallowed by the Jardine Consortium, Golden Gate Architecture is backed by the huge strength of the Jardine Consortium, and its development is advancing by leaps and bounds.

Nowadays, Jinmen Construction is a well-known construction company in Xiangjiang. Even Li Jiacheng’s Yangtze River Infrastructure is still inferior to Jinmen Construction.

If such a powerful construction company can be swallowed by Xia Yu, it will definitely be able to install nuclear-powered rocket boosters for Xia Yu's dream of a real estate giant.

And having a strong construction company can not only enhance the company's ability to resist risks, but most importantly, it can reduce construction costs and make the development of real estate and commercial real estate more competitive.

In the final analysis, business struggles rely on comprehensive competitiveness!

If Xia Yu expands the existing construction department of the Wharf Group, not to mention the cost and effort, the most important thing is to waste time.

For Xia Yu, time is more precious!

In today's changing times, one step behind, it will cost more to catch up, and the loss is too great!

Therefore, the Golden Gate building, you have to eat everything you say, it can't be cheaper for others!

Xia Yu estimated that based on the current assets, the value of Jinmen Construction is only about 180 million Hong Kong dollars, and he has the capital to eat it!

Except for the Dairy Company and Jinmen Construction, there is only one Jardine Auto Group, and Xia Yu didn't want to let it go.

Jardine Auto Group is another representative of the Jardine Consortium in the manufacturing industry, in addition to Jardine Machinery Group.

Jardine Auto Group has three subsidiaries. One of them is Indonesia's largest automobile manufacturer: Indonesia Astra International Holdings Co., Ltd., which is 100% controlled by Jardine Auto Group.

Astra and Toyota are one of Toyota's top five dealers in Indonesia, and it is also the only one that mainly manufactures small cars and is sold almost domestically.

Due to national conditions, Indonesia’s total annual car sales last year reached 40,000 vehicles, but Astra produced 10,000 vehicles, accounting for 25%.

In addition, there is also a motorcycle manufacturing company under the Jardine Motor Group, which is also the largest motorcycle manufacturer in Indonesia.

The full name of this company is Indonesia Astra Honda Motorcycle Manufacturing Co., Ltd. You can tell from the name that this company is a joint venture company established with Honda, and Jardine Motors Group holds 49% of the shares.

Because of Honda's support, whether it is an automobile manufacturing company or a motorcycle manufacturing company, the strength is top in Indonesia.

But again, Indonesia is too poor after all. Even motorcycles are luxury goods. Although Indonesia has a large population, most of them cannot afford it, so the annual sales of motorcycles are not large.

But as long as these two companies maintain their positions, the purchasing power will explode when Indonesia becomes rich in the future, so the potential is not lacking.

In addition to these two manufacturing companies, the Jardine Auto Group also has a strong sales network, which is Renfuxing Co., Ltd.

Renfuxing Co., Ltd. was acquired by Jardine Motors Group in 1973. The company was originally founded in 1950 in Xiangjiang and has been developed for 28 years.

Renfuxing Co., Ltd. sells cars. After being under the income of the Jardine Consortium, it has developed very rapidly. Now it is the second largest in the field of sales and service of Xiangjiang Motors, and is only subordinate to the Wang family's car sales company.

Renfu has three auto shops, three service centers, and a large exhibition hall in Hong Kong, one auto shop and one service center in Omen, one auto shop and service center in the north and south of Taiwan, and three auto shops in Southeast Asia Line and service center.

A total of 9 auto shops, 9 service centers and 1 large exhibition hall.

The Jardine Auto Group has not only a manufacturing plant, but also a huge sales network and after-sales network, which are all accumulated in decades.

For the auto industry, Xia Yu definitely wants to enter, whether it is to make money, or to dream, or to enter the mainland in the future, he must enter the auto industry.

However, the threshold for the automotive industry is too high. Xia Yu's current capital is far from enough. If he ventures into it and tries to compete with those auto giants, he will definitely encounter many problems.

Therefore, we should buy a gadget first. The Jardine Auto Group, which cooperates with Toyota, is very suitable. It is not large and can get part of Toyota's technology.

And there is a certain basic sales and after-sales network, strong anti-risk ability, is definitely a good thing for novices to get started.

Xia Yu intends to take advantage of this excellent opportunity to buy it first. Even if there is no big money for development in a short period of time, he will be in his stomach first, and then he will invest a lot of money when he has money.

If we don't take advantage of the collapse of the Jardine Foundation this time, there will be no such good opportunity in the future.

Xia Yu calculated that the milk company has great hidden value and great potential, but because it hasn't broken out yet, he can definitely get it at a low price.

But no matter how low it is, it costs about 300 million Hong Kong dollars.

The total value of Jinmen Construction is about 180 million Hong Kong dollars.

As for the Jardine Motor Group, the total value is around 400 million Hong Kong dollars.

It would cost about 900 million Hong Kong dollars to swallow these three companies wholly.

However, the current liquidity of the Galaxy Fund is only more than 700 million Hong Kong dollars. If we add Jiuding Securities' own liquidity, it can exceed 900 million Hong Kong dollars, which is barely enough.

But if the money is spent, he will be on the wax!

Having acquired so many companies, if you want to rectify, you must invest funds for development.

Guang'an Bank is about to reform and expand, and Lai’s TV station has to invest a lot of money in rectification, not to mention Jardine Insurance Consulting Group and Wharf Group.

If these three companies can be acquired, the investment of development funds is another large expenditure.

When the funds are exhausted, his Jiuding Securities Company and Galaxy Fund cannot make money, nor can other companies develop.

Without the money, how can he have the confidence to aim at Hutchison Whampoa? How to implement the plan to swallow the Whampoa?

Therefore, Xia Yu immediately ruled out the idea of ​​using his own money to acquire these three companies.

It just so happens that he is so strong and has very few loans. It's time to use other people's money to develop his own business!

"It's time to go to Shen Bi! If you want to swallow these three companies, you really have to help from HSBC.

No, I helped HSBC. They hold a lot of shares in Jardines Holdings and Jardines Group. Now the Keswick family continues to sell the company, and the value of Jardines Holdings and Jardines Group continues to shrink. Shen Bi is absolutely lost. It's too late, I just went to help him! "

Xia Yu thought shamelessly with a smile at the corner of his mouth, and then made a phone call to confirm that Shen Bi was at HSBC, and he took someone to set off!
