Chapter 324 Li Chaoren: 6 million? You might as well kidnap me
Half an hour ago, in the car.
Chen Wen and Jimmy were chatting and also talked about Hutchison Whampoa.
"Brother Wen, after all this time, you just want the shares in Jardine Matheson's hands."
"No wonder you gave up the position of major shareholder just like that."
"But no matter how many shares Yihe holds, it is not as real as the identity of the major shareholder."
Jimmy spoke directly to Chen Wen in a leisurely manner.
After hearing what Jimmy said, Chen Wen just smiled slightly.
Obviously, what Chen Wen wanted was not as simple as what Jimmy said.
In other words, Jimmy was only half right.
"Of course we still have to consider the problem comprehensively. How can we just take advantage of this small amount of shares?"
"As for the investment in Wharf Holdings, we have already recovered the 10% of shares that were transferred to Sir Bao, and the rest is what we got for free."
"Of course, Lord Bao is such a loyal person, how could he take such a big benefit for no reason?"
Chen Wen spoke directly to Jimmy in front of him with a smile on his face.
Even though Chen Wen had said this, Jimmy still didn't realize how much effort Lord Bao would put into repaying this favor. He immediately asked, "What other benefits can there be?"
“Hutchison Whampoa.”
As soon as these four simple words came out, Jimmy was stunned.
You should know that Hutchison Whampoa is a large multinational company with businesses spread all over the world, and its business operations are even more diversified, including the largest container terminal operator in many markets around the world, retail chain groups, real estate businesses and infrastructure businesses.
It even includes multiple businesses such as telecommunications and radio broadcasting services.
Time returns to the present.
"I've heard that HSBC is planning to sell Hutchison Whampoa."
"So many businessmen are eager to take over Hutchison Whampoa."
"I really didn't expect that the final buyer would be Mr. Chen."
There was a hint of surprise in Li Chaoren's eyes.
But soon, Li Chaoren adjusted his thoughts and chatted directly with Chen Wen in front of him.
Hutchison Whampoa is a subsidiary of HSBC Group.
Although it is not a pillar industry of HSBC, it can be said to have deep roots.
Even when HSBC was selecting the target for acquiring Hutchison Whampoa, it had certain requirements and standards.
Even a company like Li Chaoren's may not be among the selected ones.
This is enough to show how high the other party's requirements are for selecting a company.
However, Chen Wen has a unique advantage, that is, his connection with Sir Bao.
As the largest director of HSBC, Sir John Bowring can often give the green light to people he likes in such matters.
And Sir Bao gained a lot of benefits from Chen Wen because of the Kowloon Wharf incident.
Therefore, Sir Bao will definitely give Chen Wen the green light at this time.
It was precisely for this reason that Li Chaoren was able to figure it out so quickly.
"Didn't Superman Li expect HSBC to transfer Hutchison Whampoa to me?"
"You still didn't expect that I, Chen Wen, could come up with so much money?"
Chen Wen spoke directly to Li Chaoren with a smile on his face.
You know, when HSBC selected the candidate for the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa, it was not just about identity.
What matters more is whether it can come up with a market value of more than 60 billion yuan.
Although Chen Wen did not point out the market value, one could still see a bit of disdain in Hong Xiaolian's expression.
That's right! This is naked contempt for Chen Wen.
"It doesn't matter whether you think of it or not."
"Mr. Chen, why are you here at this time? Are you going to kidnap me instead of my son?"
"Mr. Chen, how much money do you plan to ask for this time? Tell me about it."
While smoking a cigar, Li Chaoren continued to chat slowly with Chen Wen in front of him.
If it weren't for Li Chaoren's words, Hong Xiaolian would have almost forgotten that the person sitting opposite Li Chaoren and discussing business with him was the gangster who kidnapped Li Zeju.
For a moment, Hong Xiaolian frantically winked at the servants around her.
Seeing this, Jimmy subconsciously became defensive.
That’s right! Chen Wen did tell Jimmy in the car that he had taken over Hutchison Whampoa from Li Chaoren.
But this was the only thing he was clear about.
Not to mention what kind of violent behavior Chen Wen might commit tonight, Jimmy didn't even know that he was going to transfer Hutchison Whampoa to Li Chaoren.
"When Superman Li said that, I felt a little sad."
"If I really did it the way a gangster does it, I wouldn't be sitting here today."
"I have already told Li Chaoren about this deal. He is definitely interested in it. You should know the market value of Hutchison Whampoa better than I do."
Chen Wen said directly without any hurry.
Although Superman Lee did not get the upper hand on Wharf Holdings before, Jimmy also got the upper hand on Hong Kong Electric.
But Hutchison Whampoa is a real and practical industry.
Although it is currently in a state of poor management, if this situation can be fundamentally resolved, the market value of Hutchison Whampoa may more than increase tenfold from its current level in the future.
This is enough to show how valuable the chips of Hutchison Whampoa given by Chen Wen this time are!
As soon as Chen Wen said this, everyone present was stunned.
Even Jimmy, who was traveling with Chen Wen, was shocked.
You know, Sir Bao's favor only earned him Hutchison Whampoa.
Chen Wen now wants to transfer Hutchison Whampoa directly to Li Chaoren at the market price?
Wouldn’t that mean Chen Wen has made a losing deal?
In other words, instead of letting it go around in his own hands at this time, it would be better to keep this favor from Sir Bao.
After all, Sir Bao has a good relationship with HSBC so he doesn't have to worry about lack of business in the future.
Why do you have to sell Hutchison Whampoa at this time and make a profit from the difference?
"are you serious?"
Li Chaoren asked back with a look of disbelief.
It can be seen from his reaction alone that this is definitely a result that Li Chaoren never expected.
It is no exaggeration to say that Li Chaoren even thought about Chen Wen kidnapping Li Zeju again, or even Li Chaoren himself, to ask for a ransom, but he never thought that Chen Wen would give up Hutchison Whampoa.
There is no way! In front of the fierce bandit Chen Wen, Li Chaoren didn't even have the word "fairness".
What’s more, it’s such a good thing that falls from the sky?
"Of course I have the sincerity, but I don't know if Li Chaoren can come up with the money."
"Six billion is not a small amount."
"Would you like to reconsider this, Superman Li?"
Chen Wen said directly without any hurry.
That’s right! At that time, Feldspar was not as big as it is now. Although it was the leader of the Five Tigers of Chinese capital, it was ultimately no match for the industry of the British Empire Corporation.
