    New Bijian has always believed that as a veteran British aristocrat, he should have a neat and majestic demeanor and a calm heart to face anything. However, on this Sunday, January 15th, he completely lost his aristocratic demeanor. At the headquarters of Jardine Matheson  There was a loud roar in the office.  "In just one week, Jardine's stock price has risen from 17.8 to 17.8. You actually told me that everything is normal. Your brain is worse than that of a reporter." He patted the South China Morning Post on the table hard.  He yelled: "Where has your professionalism gone? It's such a shame, a shame." He yelled a few words loudly, then loosened his tie with force, pointed at O'Connor, the person in charge of Jardine He Certificate, and said: "Okay, now you  "Tell me, how many shares of Jardine Matheson does this mysterious person have now?" "According to estimates, it would take at least 100 million to 300 million Hong Kong dollars to raise the stock price of Jardine Matheson. This person may have more than 100,000 shares now.  Jardine stock accounts for about 10% of the total share capital of Jardine Matheson. ""These are only publicly traded stocks. What about those financial investment institutions?" Niu Bijian stared at him and asked aggressively: "  Have they dealt with large amounts of Jardine shares privately recently? " "They don't work on weekends, so I can't contact anyone." O'Connor lowered his head and said weakly, "I'll go find out right away after the market opens."  "Asshole, haven't you always boasted that Jardine Securities is the most well-informed securities company in Hong Kong?" Niu Bijian suppressed his anger and loosened his tie again. He felt that it was not enough, so Yu Jian pulled off his tie and threw it on his desk.  Go up and say: "Go and find out immediately. No matter what method you use, you must find out who this person is and how many shares of Jardine Matheson he holds. If you can't find out, you you just  Let¡¯s go dancing in Victoria Harbor too.¡± O¡¯Connor walked out of the conference room in disgrace, and only Bao Fuda, the general manager of the Land Group, was left in the office.  "Mr. Niu Bijian, you don't need to be too nervous." Bao Fuda persuaded: "Maybe as O'Connor said, this is just a normal stock market fluctuation. After all, Pao Yugang intends to abandon Wharf, which is great news for us."  "Bao Yugang is very cunning. He has a huge appetite. Even if we sell Wharf's shares, we will have to pay a big price, which may not be a good thing." Niu Bijian shook his head. He picked up his tie and tied it again while tying it.  He said: "Last time I negotiated with him, we didn't reach any consensus, but the stock price kept rising. This is very abnormal. I suspect that someone is taking the opportunity to attack Jardine Matheson." " Jardine Matheson is a giant elephant, and there is no such thing in Hong Kong  "A few people are capable of sniping." Bao Fuda was half convinced and said: "British capital has always co-existed peacefully. The only ones who are malicious to us are the Chinese capital groups. The only people with this ability are Bao Yugang, Li Ka-shing, Guo Desheng and Feng Jingxi.  , it is impossible for Pao Yugang to abandon Wharf and then buy Jardine Matheson's stocks. Li Ka-shing is busy taking care of Hutchison Whampoa. Guo Desheng has always been steady, focusing on real estate and rarely making moves in the stock market. If Feng Jingxi's Sun Hung Kai Securities is to  It is impossible for O'Connor to absorb Jardine's shares without knowing that most of the other families, such as the Li family and the He family, mainly focus on property rent collection and do not have a large amount of cash. I really can't think of anyone who is absorbing Jardine's shares. "  "We can no longer speculate on the Chinese with our previous thinking." Sitting on his office chair, New Bijian took a deep breath and said: "In the past, the Chinese would give in to whatever land we British wanted, but since Li Ka-shing bid for it,  After the construction of the Admiralty subway station, Chinese capital became bolder. They chased us like bloodthirsty sharks and bit us. Last year, Shen Bi gave Hutchison Whampoa to Li Ka-shing, which further encouraged this trend, so  I believe that the fluctuation in the stock price this time must be caused by someone trying to take over Jardine Matheson in a hostile manner. There are many Chinese in Hong Kong. One or two may not be capable, but if ten or eight form a consortium, it will be terrible. "Then, who would it be?  Woolen cloth?  " "It doesn't matter who he is, the key is how many stocks this person holds now." New Bijian was very irritated and said: "In recent years, the Keswick family has continuously reduced its holdings of Jardine Matheson shares. Now it only has 10 points. If this  If people continue to increase their holdings, they will soon be able to challenge the Keswick family's status as the major shareholder. You know, the relationship between Simenke and me is very bad, and I can't give him an excuse to attack.  ¡± Bao Dafu was silent and silent. He was a professional manager and did not want to be involved in the struggle between senior directors. New Bijian joined Jardine Matheson at the age of 20, became a director at the age of 36, became the managing director at the age of 36, and succeeded Henry Kaiser at the age of 41.  As the chairman of the board of directors of Jardine Matheson, it can be said that his career has been smooth and prosperous. However, his position as chairman of the board of directors has been very unstable recently because Siemenke openly opposed his business strategy and repeatedly challenged his authority.  The younger brother of Henryk, the former chairman of the board of directors of Jardine Matheson. There are rumors in London that the Keswick family has already appointed him as the next chairman of the board of directors of Jardine Matheson. New Bijian is only 46 years old this year and is in the prime period of his career.  Of course, he didn¡¯t want to be caught by Simenke and step down sadly. Nu Bijian looked at the Victoria Harbor outside the glass curtain wall. After a while, he said: "Tell me, could it be Shen Chong?"?  "    "he?  Bao Dafu was stunned, and immediately shook his head and said: "Impossible."  " "How is it impossible?  "New Bijian said in a rare unconfident tone: "All of his companies are private companies, and their finances are opaque. None of us know how much money he has, and this person likes to take risks.  ¡± ¡°No matter how rich he is, it is impossible for him to engage in large-scale investment activities in the United States, Mainland China, Taiwan and Hong Kong at the same time.  Bao Dafu said with certainty: "His investment in the United States is very transparent. Indeed, as he said, he did not take a penny of profits out of the United States."  Taiwan is just an investment intention and can be ignored now. The key is his investment in the mainland.  " "What happened to the mainland?  " "Except for the toy company, Shen Chong's industries in Hong Kong are all small businesses that don't make much money. According to market forecasts, the profit of the toy company will not exceed US$300 million at most, and US$300 million is exactly what he has  The construction cost of the tall building to be invested in.  "Bao Dafu has obviously done an in-depth investigation of Shen Chong. He continued: "The banks in the mainland are very poor, the system is not perfect, and there are basically no financing channels, and the land there is state-owned. Whether it is Hong Kong or the United States, there is no  A bank will take risks to provide him with a loan, so Shen Chong must prepare enough cash to build the tallest building in Asia. I have dealt with mainland officials. They are very sensitive and attach great importance to reputation. If Shen Chong gives the money  If he invests in the stock market and is stuck and cannot build a building, he will be regarded as a liar by the mainland and lose a lot of political resources. I think that as a businessman who has close ties with the mainland government, he will not take this risk.  .  "After he finished explaining his reasons, he said with a smile: "Mr. Niu Bijian, it is impossible for Shen Chong not to be the commander in Hong Kong for such a big business with hundreds of millions of investments. And we all know that he has been accompanying him in Taiwan recently.  A movie star girlfriend travels around.  " Hearing this, Nu Bijian was thoughtful, his expression slowly relaxed, and he said: "Maybe you are right, I have been under a lot of pressure recently and I am too sensitive.  ¡± ¡°Through HSBC¡¯s Duoli Investment Company, we purchased approximately UU 10,000 shares of Jardine Matheson from several securities companies at prices ranging from 19 yuan to 10 yuan, plus 10UU bought from the stock market.  More than 10,000 shares, the total number of stocks currently in hand, probably accounts for about the total shares of Jardine Matheson.  " Shen Chong was sitting in the office of Oriental Charming. Looking at the numbers on the whiteboard, he felt a little dizzy, so he directly asked the results and said: "How much funds were used in total?  " "More than 470 million.  "Yuan Tianfanhui reported: "There is still a balance of about 320 million in the fund pool.  " "The cost is much lower than previously expected, and it is well done.  Shen Chong praised it and asked: "Then what's the plan next?"  " "I have prepared two plans.  "Yuan Tianfan pushed two folders, one red and one blue, and said: "The red one is more aggressive. Chengyi and Matheson haven't reacted yet. As soon as the market opens tomorrow, we will immediately absorb stocks on a large scale and strive to sell them in the shortest possible time.  , increase the shares to 10, of course, the cost will be relatively high.  The blue one is a bit gentler. Not only will it not buy stocks tomorrow, but it will release some, creating the illusion of a volatile market and confusing Jardine Matheson, and then slowly buying in stocks. This will take longer, but the cost will be lower.  " Shen Chong did not look through the folder, but asked Li Kaiyuan: "What do you think?  " "I like the first option.  "Li Kaiyuan was not as casual as Shen Chong. She stared at the whiteboard for a while and said: "But the remaining 300 million Hong Kong dollars are probably not enough to pose a threat to Jardine Matheson. The second plan can help you more.  Give yourself a few days to raise funds.  " "I also tend to use the second option.  Yuan Tianfan explained: "Mr. Shen owns the Hong Kong Economic News, the Far Eastern Economic Review, and the Oriental Weekly. They are all authoritative publications in Hong Kong's financial industry. They can use them to publish false news and sway public opinion."  , in that case, the confusion will be stronger.  " "That's not good.  Shen Chong categorically rejected it and said: "You can't compromise the great cause for small profits. The principles of press freedom and press neutrality must still be observed. Otherwise, if the matter spreads, the entire image of Oriental Charm will be ruined. Once the authoritative reputation falls, I think  It will be extremely difficult to get up again.  Wait a minute, I'll make a call first.  " He picked up the phone and dialed Pao Yugang's phone number in person instead of going through his secretary. After saying a few words, he put down the phone and said, "Let's use the first plan. It's a quick decision. I'll take the Wharf.  The stocks are pledged, with Bao Yugang as the guarantor, and he will borrow HK$800 million from HSBC tomorrow.  "
