Far East Club Headquarters!
After signing the equity transfer agreement with Powell, Li Yi did not stay in the company for long, and then drove to Li Futiao's site.
Now that a company with huge assets like New Territory Warehouse has been taken over by them, how to distribute the benefits and how to manage the company all need to be discussed with Li Futiao.
After all, not all the funds for the acquisition of the New Territories warehouse were obtained by Li Yi. The Li family, the He family, and the Luo family contributed more than HK$1 billion.
After arriving at the Far East Stock Exchange, Li Yi saw that there were not many people in the huge exchange and it looked very deserted.
It doesn’t matter if there are few people, there are even fewer people trading.
From this we can also see how depressed the Hong Kong stock market is now!
In fact, it is not difficult to understand. After all, less than four months have passed since the stock market crash in July. The stocks of most companies are still falling. Even the Hang Seng Index is the same, with no sign of rebound.
And the stock market is a place where you chase the rise and kill the fall. Absolutely no one dares to buy the bottom until the decline has stopped.
Nowadays, those who operate stocks are often small retail investors. They buy dozens of lots, and the loss or gain is within tens or hundreds of Hong Kong dollars. It cannot be said that it has no impact on the broader market, but it can only be said that the impact is so small that it can be ignored.
After staying in the lobby for more than ten minutes, Li Yi asked Li Yunbao to lead the way and went straight to Li Futiao's office.
Originally, Li Futiao's office belonged to the core area of the Far East Society. Not everyone could enter, and the security force was very strong.
Normally, no matter who wants to see Li Futiao, they must make an appointment in advance.
But because the prince Li Yunbao was here, no one dared to stop him.
In this way, Li Yi and others arrived at the 12th floor unimpeded and stood outside Li Futiao's office.
"Ding-deng-deng..."
"Enter!"
Li Futiao is dealing with the backlog of documents in the office. Since he has been paying attention to the stock market war on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange these days, he has not dealt with work seriously for several days and has a backlog of things.
The matter was settled yesterday, so he rushed to the company early today to handle these tasks.
But when he saw that it was Li Yi and his son who came in through the door, he immediately stood up from his chair.
"Why are you here? Didn't you say you want to negotiate with the people from the Yihe Department?" Li Futiao asked in surprise.
"The negotiation has been completed and the agreement has been signed!" Li Yi said with a smile.
"What kind of agreement? Jardine will not really sell all the remaining shares to us, right?"
"Haha, although it is a bit unbelievable, it is true. Powell really sold his shares to us and completely exited the New Territories warehouse!" Li Yi said.
"Hiss! It's so fun, isn't there some trap?" Li Futiao frowned.
He has been dealing with those ghost guys for so many years, and he knows how cunning those guys are, and they are very good at using contract traps to deceive people. Li Futiao is very worried that Li Yi has been deceived.
However, before Li Yi could answer, Li Yunbao was the first to say: "Dad, your son and I drafted the contract, how could there be a trap!"
Then, Li Yunbao told Li Futiao in detail the relevant contents and process of the equity transfer agreement signed by the two parties.
When he learned that Powell actually asked Li Yi to take 21% of the New Territory Warehouse shares on credit, he was completely stunned.
In fact, Powell cut off his wrist and took the initiative to sell his shares to Li Yi. Li Futiao did not seem particularly surprised.
After all, Jardine has done this kind of thing before. During the previous Wharf War, the head of Jardine, Niu Bijian, seeing that the situation was over, simply transferred more than 10 million shares of Wharf owned by Land to Charter King, cashing out 10 in one fell swoop. billions of Hong Kong dollars.
As for the apprentice led by Powell and Nu Bijian, it is not surprising at all that he made the same choice as Nu Bijian.
However, Powell actually allowed Li Yi to settle the funds four months later, which was a bit unexpected.
After all, life is not easy for Jardine Matheson now. The continuous huge losses have made this industrial giant difficult. At one time, it could only survive by transferring equity.
Logically speaking, even if they really wanted to give up the New Territory Warehouse completely, they wouldn't be so generous as to let the other party take credit!
Does the other party have any conspiracy?
Seeing Li Futiao's expression, Li Yunbao immediately said: "Don't worry, Dad, there will definitely be no problem with this transaction, I guarantee it!"
Li Futiao thought for a while and said: "I know Powell well. He is not the kind of person who will give up easily, and he will not let others take advantage of him for no reason. What's more, we are still enemies. , there must be something wrong here!"
Li Yi smiled and said: "Powell made me a promise!"
"What promise?"
"He asked me to promise that as long as the Jardine Group does not provoke me, we cannot target them for retaliation, and we are not allowed to attack their companies!" Li Yi said.
"Oh, I see, you agreed?"
"Why don't you agree? Even if Yihe is using this to delay time, it is still good for us. We just took advantage of this time to completely digest the New Territory Warehouse!"
Then Li Yi continued: "Once we are free, we can continue to deal with other members of the British-funded group, not to mention I can see that Powell really doesn't want to mix with other members of the British-funded group this time!"
Li Futiao thought for a while and said, "He is scared and worried that he will become the second Niu Bijian!"
"What do you mean, who is Niu Bijian?" Li Yi asked curiously.
"New Bijian is the former head of the Jardine Department and another protagonist of the Wharf War. During the previous battle for Wharf, Nu Bijian was fully prepared and confident of winning. However, because of The backstab within the British-owned group directly caused his plan to fail!"
Then Li Futiao said again: "The final result is that the charter king won the Wharf in that battle. Although Niu Bijian stopped his losses in time and restored a lot of blood for the Jardines, he was still removed from the position of the leader of Jardines. It’s the job of a person, and that’s why Powell took charge of the Jardine Department!”
"Obviously the current development of the situation has exceeded Powell's tolerance. He is also worried that he will follow in the footsteps of Niu Bijian, so he is so eager to reconcile with us!"
"It makes sense. Anyway, this is a rare good thing for us!"
"right!"
"By the way, Lao Li, now that the New Territories warehouse has been taken over, what do you think about how the equity should be distributed?" Li Yi asked again.
Li Futiao thought for a while and said: "First, distribute according to the proportion of capital contribution. Finally, each of us will give you 500,000 shares as a service fee for your trading this time. What do you think?"
As the founder of a securities company, Li Futiao knew very well that their ability to win the New Territories warehouse did not rely on the evil funds they provided, but more on Li Yi's magical operations.
Therefore, it is most appropriate for each of them to donate part of their shares to Li Yi.
"I have no objection. I just don't know what Mr. He and Mr. Luo think. Will they agree to this plan?" Li Yi said.
He did not refuse Li Futiao's kindness, mainly because Li Yi really needed these shares.
Although they took 74% of the shares of New Territory Warehouse this time, after deducting the 21% of shares that have not been paid for, they actually hold only 53% of the shares.
If calculated according to the investment ratio, only about 29% belongs to Xingchen Company, or to Li Yi himself, and the rest belongs to Li Futiao, He Dongying, Huang Lixing and others.
Even if Li Yi finally successfully acquired the 21% shares of the Jardine Group, the total would not be enough to meet the 51% holding standard.
If each of those companies gave him 500,000 shares, the total would be at least 2% of the shares.
In this way, Li Yi can control the New Territories Warehousing Center even without the support of the He family and the Li family.
So he won't leave hidden dangers for himself just because he is embarrassed.
After discussing the equity distribution, Li Yi and Li Futiao talked about how to manage the New Territory Warehouse.
After some discussion, both men agreed that the board of directors should be reorganized and capable professional managers hired to manage this staggeringly large company.
After reaching an initial consensus, Li Yi handed over the matter to Li Futiao, and he decided to return to Thief Eagle as soon as possible and continue to stare at the gold futures market.
But just as Li Yi was about to leave, a piece of news caught him off guard and disrupted his schedule!
