Chapter 89： The first 9 dragon warehouse situation

Wharf Holdings Limited is a conglomerate company listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and one of the top ten real estate developers in Hong Kong. Founded by Paul Chater in 1886, it was originally the name of the largest freight port in Hong Kong. At that time, the name was Hong Kong Kowloon Wharf and Warehouse Co., Ltd., which mainly operated port re-export business and owned Wharf Wharf and other freight terminals.

Wharf is the largest terminal in Hong Kong. Its properties include most of the terminals and warehouses in Tsim Sha Tsui, the New Territories, and Hong Kong Island in Kowloon, as well as high-quality properties such as hotels, buildings, and trams. There are rumors in the rivers and lakes that whoever owns the Wharf will control most of the cargo handling, storage and transportation and cross-sea ferries in Hong Kong.

At this time, Hong Kong had not yet had the four major families. There were only the four major foreign firms, and the owner of the Wharf was the Jardine Group, the first of the four major foreign firms. As the largest British-funded consortium in the Far East that had trade relations with China during the Qing Dynasty, there is a saying in Hong Kong: "The face of Jardine, the silver paper of the ancient times" - which shows the economic status of Jardine at that time. Therefore, in terms of capital structure, Wharf is actually of pure British blood, and it is also called "Jardine Wings" together with Hong Kong Land.

Now is the time when Li Chaoren wants to acquire Wharf, and when the first Wharf battle for shares reaches the peak, Bao Zixuan is ready to cash out and leave.

In August last year, Bao Zixuan used 10 million US dollars to leverage HKD 200 million through leveraged capital allocation to buy Wharf stocks at the bottom.

At that time, the stock price of Wharf was 13.03 yuan, and now it has risen to 46 yuan, and the stock price has risen 3.5 times. And Yuan Tianfan did not live up to Bao Zixuan's expectations, and won a total of 13.8% of the shares of Wharf. For this reason, Bao Zixuan wants to reward their team with a bonus of 3 million Hong Kong dollars, which is already negotiated.

Bao Zixuan explained to Yuan Tianfan on the phone very early that once the stock price exceeds 45 Hong Kong dollars, he can sell it. This is the highest price at this stage. In fact, he also thought about acquiring Wharf.

After the acquisition, just collecting rent every year is enough for future generations to have no worries about food and clothing, but there are too many interests involved. If you have money, you can act arbitrarily, and it involves too many interests. Just relying on his foundation will soon be divided up by these tycoons. After all, I have to devote too much energy to RB and European and American companies in the international market.

Even if you don't need to rely too much on local companies in Hong Kong, sometimes when everyone joins forces, you will still be forced to take an inch. If you build a factory, I will not sell you sand, cement, steel bars and other building materials. All engineering teams are not allowed to undertake any projects of Heiyun Group. This is all foreshadowing.

And in the end, the Governor's Mansion may come forward. Isn't that how Huo Daheng launched Heung Kong Real Estate Development?

The reason why Heiyun Group is building a factory so smoothly now is because the funds are in place and there is no conflict of interest with the local business players in Hong Kong. If it really forcibly acquires companies such as Wharf, Hutchison Whampoa, etc., then it is not only the British-funded enterprises who want to clean up you, China You are also offended by the capital enterprise.

In the end, I still wanted to earn a buck and leave, and then find other targets to start with.

Bao Zixuan came to the investment department of HSBC at this time. Yuan Tianfan was already waiting for him in the reception room, and he had already made an appointment before coming.

Yuan Tianfan didn't expect that he would buy 200 million Hong Kong dollars in stock just after meeting him once. During this period, he almost ignored him, never met once, and only got through the phone twice.

Once, he told him that the acquisition had been completed according to the target, and once was to tell him that it had reached HK$45 per share. However, the vision of this hottest rookie in the business world in Hong Kong is really admirable.

In just a short period of half a year, the share price of Wharf has skyrocketed by 3.5 times, which is an income that everyone envies.

After the secretary poured a cup of coffee for the two of them, they left. Only Bao Zixuan and Yuan Tianfan were left in the reception room.

Yuan Tianfan: "Baosheng, it's too hard to see you. I can't sleep well every day with such a large amount of money in the stock market! You look like nothing. It's really admirable!"

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "I look at people first when doing business. As long as it is a cooperation, I have to trust the other party. I am a science and engineering student, so Manager Yuan may not be able to catch up with me when it comes to building machinery, but when it comes to buying and selling stocks, I still Can you be better than you, a talented student from the Department of Economics at the University of Chicago!"

Yuan Tianfan: "Bao Sheng is indeed different from many bosses in Xiangjiang. I often meet people who teach me to trade stocks!"

Bao Zixuan: "What's the matter of being afraid of such a layman leading a layman!"

Yuan Tianfan said with a smile, "A lot of Chinese people don't think that way. Next, I'll report to you about the stock acquisition by Wharf!"

After seeing Bao Zixuan nod, Yuan Tianfan sorted out the information and said, "This time we started to sell at the price of 45 Hong Kong dollars according to your request. We sold all of them yesterday, with an average transaction price of 45.36 yuan. We spent a total of 200 million yuan in the acquisition. Hong Kong dollar, the average opening price is 13.25 Hong Kong dollars.”

"At present, all the stocks have been sold, and we have returned a total of 685 million Hong Kong dollars. After deducting 152 million Hong Kong dollars from HSBC's allocation, plus 31 million Hong Kong dollars in handling fees, interest, bonuses and other expenses, you currently have 510 million Hong Kong dollars in your account."

Bao Zixuan did not expect that in just half a year, stocks could be so profitable. It is no wonder that many people like to work in the financial industry. This industry is easy, less labor, and quicker.

But if you think about it carefully, that is, you know the development of history. If someone else doesn't have such courage, what would you do if the stock market fell again after a few months. If it happens to catch up with the stock market crash, then there may be no one left to speculate in stocks by means of capital allocation. A lot of people lose and go bankrupt under such circumstances.

The stock market is risky, and you need to be cautious when entering the market. This is not empty talk.

It suddenly occurred to me that the bonus Chengruo gave to Yuan Tianfan's team has not been cashed yet! After all, it was promised to others that it would have to be paid at the end of the stock acquisition. But I have never met, and this time I made a lot of money, so I can't be too stingy.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile, "You have worked hard for Manager Yuan. I am very satisfied with your work. According to my promise at the time, you should be rewarded with 3 million Hong Kong dollars. That would make me seem too stingy."

After speaking, he wrote a check for 5 million Hong Kong dollars and handed it to Yuan Tianfan, "This is 5 million. The extra is counted as extra, so you should invite your teammates for tea."

Bao Zixuan can actually give 3 million yuan, but after thinking about it, he should be more generous. After all, Yuan Tianfan will be used in many places in the future. And it won't be long before the Wharf's first acquisition war is over, and it will be Cheung Kong's turn to acquire Hutchison Whampoa, and both stocks will soar.

Looking at the check in his hand, Yuan Tianfan couldn't calm down for a long time He said that the boss of Heiyun is generous. I finally saw it today, and 2 million was sent out without blinking an eye.

Yuan Tianfan said with a smile, "Then on behalf of my teammates, I would like to thank Bao Sheng for the tea money. We have all the tea money in our lifetime."

Bao Zixuan did not study economics in his previous life. He only knew of a limited number of acquisitions that were recorded in history, so he did not plan to take out the money, but continued to put it in the stock market. After all, after 80 years, many acquisitions in Xiangjiang have not been so thrilling. .

Yuan Tianfan looked at the brooding Bao Zixuan and continued, "What are your plans for Bao Sheng's money?"

He knew that Bao Zixuan's wealth in HSBC's account was increasing every moment, and he wanted to see if he could make a fortune.

Bao Zixuan: "I hope Manager Yuan can help me continue to buy 2 stocks."

Yuan Tianfan: "I don't know which 2 stocks Bao Sheng wants to sell. This time we need HSBC to allocate funds like this."

Bao Zixuan: "This time, it's enough to double the allocation. After all, HSBC's handling fee and interest are not very cheap. The acquisition of the shares of Hutchison Whampoa and Cheung Kong Industrial. The end of this year is the acquisition deadline. I don't have any requirements, after all, you are professional in this area, and you can spend your money."

After explaining some things to Yuan Tianfan, He Mingcheng came to HSBC to review the contract. Bao Zixuan signed his name.

Even if you know how to make money, you don’t dare to invest too much. The market value of Hutchison Whampoa is about 6 billion. Cheung Kong has less than 1 billion yuan, and Bao Zixuan has about 1 billion yuan in capital. It is possible to acquire 15% of the shares in each of the two companies. If there are too many acquisitions, it will exceed the bottom line of the dealer and the capital side, so everyone will definitely unite to clean up him first.
