Chapter 178 The New King of Xiangjiang, Open a New Era!
In a luxurious but solemn conference room, a contract signing ceremony that will affect the entire business landscape of Hong Kong is about to begin.
Lin Fei was wearing a crisp suit and sat on the side of the conference table, his face expressionless.
Opposite him were the dignified-faced old Henry and several key members of the Keswick family~.
Qiao Jiakang stood next to Lin Fei and said with a smile: "Mr. Lin, all the legal documents and audit reports are ready, and we can start the procedures for the transfer of shares." "
Old Henry held the document in his hand tightly, and finally nodded: "Let's start." "
Lin Fei turned his head to look at Qiao Jiakang, who immediately opened a cortical folder and took out a thick contract.
"This is a share transfer agreement that has been reviewed by lawyers on both sides and covers all the terms of the shares and assets of Jardine Matheson.
Among them, the pricing mechanism for the equity price is based on the net asset value (NAV) of Jardine Matheson in the most recent quarter. "
Old Henry was silent for a while, and finally said, "We have reviewed it, and there is no problem. "
Lin Fei took the pen handed over by Qiao Jiakang and left his signature on the signing page of the agreement.
Qiao Jiakang then explained the next process in detail: "After completing the signing, we will immediately pay a one-time purchase fee of HK$30 billion through electronic transfer, which can minimize transaction costs and exchange rate risks. "
Old Henry also signed his name, and then silently pushed the contract: "In this way, we have completed the delivery of the equity, and the shares of Jardine Matheson will be officially transferred to the name of Feilong Group." "
After a period of silence, Lin Fei finally spoke: "For the Keswick family, this may be a tragic farewell.
But for Feilong Group, this means that our territory in Heung Kong will be further expanded.
Thank you for your cooperation. "
The people of the Keswick family did not speak, but just looked at Lin Fei with a complicated expression.
Old Henry finally said, "Good luck to you." "
Lin Fei smiled: "In the same way, I wish you all the best in your new journey." "
After the meeting, the people of the Keswick family left in disgrace.
Lin Fei stood in front of the window, looking at their departing backs, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
At this moment, the leading position of the Feilong Group is more stable, and the Keswick family is destined to withdraw from the historical stage of this bustling city.
As soon as the merger agreement between Feilong Group and Jardine Matheson was announced, the entire Xiangjiang was boiling in an instant.
At the piers of Victoria Harbour, fishermen sell their freshly caught fish, and in the office buildings of Central, white-collar workers stand up and talk.
"Have you heard? Feilong Group bought Jardine Matheson, a full 30 billion Hong Kong dollars!"
"Haha, Lin Fei has made a lot of money this time, and the assets and ports of Jardine Matheson in Xiangjiang are not small. "
At this moment, several TV reporters also gathered in front of the Feilong Group Building.
With the microphone and VCR in hand, they were ready to go live.
Reporter Zhang Jing picked up the microphone and said: "Audience and friends, I am standing in front of the headquarters building of Feilong Group, and the atmosphere here is very exciting.
Today, Feilong Group and Jardine Matheson officially signed an equity transfer agreement, which involves 30 billion Hong Kong dollars.
Next, we are honored to invite Mr. Henry Sr., the former president of Jardine Matheson, hello Mr. Sr. "
Old Henry stood in front of the camera, trying to keep his composure: "Hello. "
Zhang Jing: "Sir, can you tell us what is the economic connotation of this transaction?"
Henry Sr.: "This transaction is not only a transfer of assets and equity, but also the end of one era and the beginning of another.
With its abundant capital and keen business sense, Feilong Group has made a comprehensive valuation of Jardine Matheson, including but not limited to its real estate, shipping, warehousing and other aspects in Xiangjiang. "
Jing Zhang: "It sounds very complicated and professional, but what impact do you think this transaction will have on the business environment of Hong Kong?"
Henry Sr.: "This transaction will further consolidate the dominant position of Feilong Group in Heungjiang, and will undoubtedly trigger a series of business cooperation and competition.
Others may need to rethink their strategy to adapt to this change. "
Zhang Jing: "Thank you very much for your wonderful answer, old man.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is Mr. Henry Sr., the former president of Jardine Matheson, who has brought us very profound and professional insights. "
The reporters ended the live broadcast one after another, and the elder Henry took a deep breath and turned to leave.
"A new era has dawned. "
He muttered to himself and walked through the door that was about to close.
Lin Fei sat in a luxurious leather chair in his office, and in front of him was the latest issue of Financial Weekly.
On the cover of the magazine was written: "The New King of Hong Kong: Lin Fei's Deal with Jardine Matheson".
He smiled and flipped through the magazine, carefully reading the report.
As the core figure of this transaction, Lin Fei, chairman of Feilong Group, has shown extraordinary business vision and strategic wisdom.
In the shipping, real estate and financial sectors, the Feilong Group has reached a near-monopoly position. "
"This transaction not only allows Feilong Group to further consolidate its dominant position in various industries, but also to achieve an optimal integration of capital and business.
Through this acquisition, Jardine Matheson acquired a number of high-quality assets, including its global fleet, real estate projects and financial platforms. "
"In terms of financial metrics such as return on equity (ROE) and gearing ratio, the transaction was also extremely successful.
It is expected that in the next few years, Feilong Group's revenue and profit will be significantly improved. "
Secretary Zhou Lu walked in, saw Lin Fei reading the magazine with relish, and asked with a smile: "It seems that the report is not bad." "
"Well, it's very professional, and we analyze our strengths and strategies very well. "
There was also an in-depth analysis of the deal in the newspaper. It mentions operational leverage and financial leverage, which I think you are quite adept at. "
"That's a must. "
Lin Fei said proudly: "We have not only bought a company, but also further strengthened our global presence through this acquisition.
This is also a good example of using capital output to win a larger market and resources for Feilong Group. "
Zhou Lu nodded: "Now the outside world is talking about it, saying that Feilong Group has become one of the world's top enterprises with this transaction." "
"That's their view, and I'm more concerned about how we can further optimize our asset structure and reduce WACC (weighted average cost of capital) through this transaction, so as to achieve higher economic value addition (EVA). "
At this moment, Zhou Lu glanced at the message on his mobile phone: "Boss, do you want to attend this afternoon's press conference? "
Lin Fei looked up at the clock: "Okay, arrange it." "
In the afternoon, the scene of the press conference was full of people.
From TV stations to newspapers, reporters from all walks of life gathered here, waiting for this figure, known as the "new king of Hong Kong", to appear.
Finally, Lin Fei walked onto the stage with thunderous applause.
Reporter Li Wanwan quickly picked up the microphone and asked, "Mr. Lin, what do you think of the old Mr. Henry calling you the pioneer of the new era?"
Lin Fei replied with a smile: "I am very happy to hear Mr. Henry's evaluation, but I think that the creation of a new era is not something that can be completed by one person or one company.
It requires the joint efforts of the whole of society, including governments, businesses, and ordinary people. "
Another reporter immediately asked: "Then what do you think of being hailed as the new king of Xiangjiang?"
Lin Fei pondered for a moment and replied, "I will accept this title calmly."
But in my opinion, becoming the new king is not an end, but a responsibility.
I will use my influence and resources to make greater contributions to the development of Hong Kong. "
The reporters nodded their heads and began to jot down these wonderful points quickly on their notepads.
After the press conference, Lin Fei walked off the stage with a satisfied smile on his face.
He knows that this acquisition not only strengthens the position of Feilong Group in Heungjiang, but also brings him a higher reputation personally.
"New King, well, that sounds good. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Lin Fei thought to himself.
He walked back to his office, sat down, and picked up the phone.
"Qiao Jiakang, get ready, we want to integrate the assets of Jardine Matheson, I need a detailed report. "
"Understood, boss. "
Qiao Jiakang's calm voice came from the other end of the phone. []
Lin Fei hung up the phone, leaned back in his chair gently, and looked through the window at the city he was about to conquer even deeper.
In all corners of Xiangjiang, from tea restaurants to office buildings, from stock trading floors to university classrooms, the news of Lin Fei's acquisition of Jardine Matheson has sparked a wide discussion.
"Have you heard? Lin Fei is now known as the new king of Xiangjiang by the media!"
In a lively café, several middle-aged men sit around a table, Business Week in hand.
"Haha, I think that's a fitting name.
He almost swallowed up Jardine Matheson, which was once a large British company. "
The other said with a smile.
"Yes, you see, this is a sign that the people of Xiangjiang stand up on their own.
The time of Great Britain is coming to an end. "
"Lin Fei is really a business wizard, I read his financial reports, and those operations are simply masters. "
In the office of a securities company, several analysts are discussing.
"Do you think he'll make further acquisitions of other companies next?"
A young analyst asked.
"It's possible.
Feilong Group has now monopolized many industries, and it is not impossible to continue to expand. "
In a classroom of the economics department of a university, the professor explained the case of Lin Fei's acquisition of Jardine Matheson.
"Look, what economic tools and business strategies are used here?"
The professor asked.
"Sir, I think he is very good at using capital and leverage. "
One student answered.
"Very good, that's what we need to learn. "
"Have you heard? Lin Fei is known as the new king of Xiangjiang!"
In a luxury clubhouse, several businessmen in designer suits are talking.
"Well, I think he deserves that title very much.
He is not only a commercial success, but also a representative of the new era of Hong Kong. "
"Yes, we should get closer to him and see if there is any chance of cooperation. "
Such scenes continue to play out throughout Xiangjiang.
Lin Fei's name and the title of "the new king of Xiangjiang" have become a hot topic on the streets.
"Finally, we Xiangjiang people have our own king, and the shadow of the British Empire will eventually pass. "
An elderly man watching the news on TV at home was overwhelmed with emotion.
A few days later, Lin Fei sat in the headquarters office of the Feilong Group, facing a huge CRT TV screen, watching the major TV stations report on this historic event.
"We have invited Professor Zhang, an economic expert, to explain the far-reaching impact behind this incident. "
Said the host on TV.
Professor Zhang adjusted his glasses for a moment, and then began his analysis: "From a professional and commercial point of view, Mr. Lin Fei has brought Feilong Group to a new height through this acquisition.
In the global Chinese capital group, they have stood at the forefront. "
The TV screen switched to a street interview, and the reporter asked passers-by: "Do you think Lin Fei is called the new king of Xiangjiang, is this title appropriate?"
A middle-aged woman replied, "Very suitable!" He is not only a successful businessman, but also the pride of us Chinese. "
At the same time, some Chinese capital groups have also begun to pay attention to this emerging giant.
"Lin Fei's action this time is really bold. "
In a luxury club in Singapore, several Chinese capitalists were talking.
"Yes, Feilong Group can now be said to be a veritable Asian giant. "
The other nodded.
"We should consider building a closer relationship with them. "
Back in the office, Lin Fei picked up the phone and dialed the number of the general manager, Qiao Jiakang.
"Mr. Qiao, get ready, and then we will expand further. "
"Understood, Mr. Lin. "
Qiao Jiakang's voice was full of anticipation and passion.
After Lin Fei hung up the phone, he smiled lightly.
Looking out the window at Victoria Harbour, he took a deep breath.
"The era of Great Britain will eventually pass, and this is the era of the rise of the Chinese. "
Lin Fei stood up, glanced at the jade-encrusted ashtray on the desk, and said softly.
At this moment, his secretary Zhou Lu walked in: "Mr. Lin, this is today's financial newspaper, and all the reports you need to know about our Feilong Group are in it." "
Lin Fei took the newspaper and unfolded it, and the headline read: "Lin Fei: The new king of Xiangjiang, opening a new era."
He put down the newspaper and said to Zhou Lu with a smile: "Get ready, I have an important TV speech to be published." "
Zhou Lu nodded, her heart full of admiration.
