v3 Chapter 983： Drama staged

"Jiuding Industrial Group?"

Norman Shiya frowned and chanted the name, vaguely remembering that he had seen Jiuding Industrial Group as a shareholder of Xiangjiang Airport Ground Service Company.

However, it took a long time, and he was mainly responsible for the affairs of the parent company and the first-level subsidiary, and he paid less attention to the third-level subsidiary of Xiangjiang Airport Ground Service Company, so his memory was vague.

He asked his nephew Wade: "When did Jiuding Industrial Group enter this company?"

Wade Shiyahuai immediately explained: "Uncle, this happened a long time ago. The 15% equity held by Jiuding Industrial Group originally belonged to Hutchison Whampoa. Hutchison Whampoa was later acquired by the Jiuding Consortium. "

Norman Shi Yahuai was in a daze.

He thought for a while and then asked: "Based on daily observations, does Jiuding Industrial Group have any actions or tendencies?"

Wade Shiyahuai contemplated for a long time, shook his head and said: "No, although Jiuding Industrial Group holds a lot of shares, it does not have a strong sense of existence. Apart from dispatching directors and financial supervisors, it almost ignores the operation of the company, even if it is a board of directors. , As long as the proposal is for company development, they will agree."

Hearing what his nephew said, Norman Shiya's brows were still not stretched, but the suspicion in his heart became stronger.

"If Bao Yugang only needs equity to strengthen strategic cooperation, he doesn't necessarily have to buy it from us. With the relationship between Chinese people, it will definitely be easier to acquire. Why should you look for us?"

After thinking for a long time, Norman Shi Yahuai found a suspicious point.

Wade Shi Yahuai was stunned, and his complexion instantly became solemn. He immediately said: "Uncle, I came in too hurriedly. I only analyzed Bao Yugang's purpose and did not have time to confirm the equity of the other three shareholders."

Norman Shi Yahuai said: "Tomorrow you will contact the three shareholders separately, and you must confirm their equity."

"There is a serious grouping among the Chinese. It is difficult to guarantee whether they have colluded. You must be 100% sure."

"Try to confirm within two days, if you need assistance, just mention it to me."

Wade Shiyahuai nodded and said, "Okay, I will try my best to investigate."

...

In the next two days, Wade Shi Yahuai first contacted Cao Guangbiao, who holds the most shares.

According to Gals Liddell’s instructions, Cao Guangbiao stated that he had taken a big step in expanding the factory, which caused a tight capital and could not repay the loan from Standard Chartered Bank. In order to concentrate on developing his own Yongxin enterprise, he took the original mortgage from Xiangjiang. The equity of the airport ground handling company was discounted to Standard Chartered Bank.

Wade Shiyahuai also visited Gals Liddell, the president of Hong Kong Standard Chartered Bank, to confirm the matter, and learned from Gals Liddell that Standard Chartered Bank is optimistic about the aviation market and has met to discuss the decision to hold long-term equity until the listing. .

Wade Shiyahuai believed 90% of Gals Liddell's words and invited him to look for candidates to join the company's board of directors.

Then he found the Huo Group to confirm the shareholding information and learned that the equity of the Xiangjiang Airport Ground Service Company held by the Huo Group had been pledged by the bank, and he also saw the pledge loan contract.

Finally, Wade Shi Yahuai approached Jiuding Industrial Group.

Unexpectedly, Jiuding Industrial Group directly admitted that the equity had been transferred to Bao Yugang. It was so frank and frank that Wade Shi Yahuai was messed up on the spot. After seeing the equity transfer contract, he hurried back to the family and reported to his uncle Norman Shi Yahuai. This matter.

That night, in the living room of Shi Yahuai's family villa.

After listening to Wade Shi Yahuai's detailed report, Norman Shi Yahuai frowned slightly, and kept playing back the information in his mind, trying to find some connections.

He always felt something was wrong, it seemed a coincidence.

Cao Guangbiao's equity was transferred to Standard Chartered Bank during this time. According to Gals Liddell, no candidate has been selected yet, so he has not connected with the Hong Kong Airport Ground Service Company.

Norman Shi Yahuai had no doubts about Huo Yingdong’s equity pledge, because according to his nephew Wade, he saw the pledge loan contract with his own eyes. The lender was Xiangjiang Bank of China. The contract was signed for three years and was signed on February 10 last year. Six days, it's been more than a year so far.

He never thought that the pledge loan contract would be fake.

After all, the relationship between Huo Yingdong and the mainland is well known. HeungKong Bank of China is more likely than other banks to take the risk to accept the equity pledge of the unlisted HeungKong Airport Ground Service Company.

"Standard Chartered Bank..."

Norman Shiyahuai flashed everything about Standard Chartered Bank in his mind, and thought of his business dealings with Standard Chartered Bank and his friendly personal relationship with Gals Liddell.

After a long time, Norman Shiyahuai found out the phone book, picked up the phone, and dialed the number at Gals Liddell's house.

On the phone, Gals Liddell behaved as usual, as enthusiastic about Norman Shiyahuai, and sent him an invitation to the party.

Regarding Norman Shiyahuai's inquiry, Gals Liddell "tells the truth" and said he is optimistic about the aviation market. If Swire Group wants to vigorously expand in the aviation field, he will offer more preferential policies and support than HSBC. We hope that both parties will strengthen cooperation...

After talking, the topic ran away directly, involving the competition between Standard Chartered Bank and HSBC, as well as the wooing of Swire Group and Norman Shiyahuai.

The enthusiasm and attitude of Gals Liddell dispelled Norman Shiyahuai's doubts about Standard Chartered Bank.

"It seems that I think too much. With such a deep cooperation between Swire and Standard Chartered, it is impossible for Gals Liddell to cheat me..."

Concluding Remarks After Gals Liddell's call, Norman Shi Yahuai's only doubt was Bao Yugang's acquisition of the equity held by Jiuding Industrial Group.

He thought for a while and told Wade Shi Yahuai: "Wade, you can call Bao Yugang and ask him directly if he has anything to do with it."

Wade Shiyahuai responded, then turned to the number from the phone book and dialed directly.

Ten seconds later, the call was connected and Bao Yugang's deep voice came from the microphone.

"This is the Bao family, who is it?"

Wade Shi Yahuai said with a smile: "Mr. Bao, good evening, I am Wade Shi Yahuai, I am sorry to disturb you so late!"

Bao Yugang’s enthusiastic voice came from the receiver immediately: “It turned out to be Mr. Wade Shi Yahuai. I don’t bother at all. I’m glad to receive your call.”

"Do you have anything? Have you already made a decision?"

Wade Shiyahuai replied: "Let's not talk about that first, I have one thing I want to confirm to you."

"Did you acquire the equity of Xiangjiang Airport Ground Service Company held by Jiuding Industrial Group?"

After asking, Wade Shi Yahuai held his breath and looked up at his uncle Norman Shi Yahuai, and found that he was squinting and leaning slightly forward close to the phone.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for three seconds. .

Just when Wade Shi Yahuai thought that Bao Yugang would be able to quibble, Bao Yugang's calm words came from the receiver: "So you already know, yes, I acquired the equity held by Jiuding Industrial Group."

Wade Shiyahuai and Norman Shiyahuai's nephew looked at each other and fell silent...
