Chapter 57 Yang Ming Officially Becomes the Head of Wharf Holdings!
8:30 am.
The registration office of Huifeng Securities Company just opened, and those retail investors who had been queuing all night immediately swarmed in.
However, how can ordinary retail investors compare with big investors.
Many bank agents and brokers called in advance last night to communicate about registration.
At the moment of registration.
Jardine Matheson Land sold 12 million shares of Wharf Holdings, which had more than 12 million shares.
There were other big investors who had almost sold out.
As for when those retail investors registered, there were actually only 5 million shares left.
It seemed a lot.
If an ordinary retail investor sold 500 shares, it was actually only 10,000 investors.
What's more, some retail investors may only have 1,000 shares, and some may have several thousand shares. These 5 million shares are not enough to be divided.
10:00 am.
Huifeng Securities Company announced that the Empire Group's purchase of 23.12 million shares has ended.
That is to say, in just less than two hours, Empire Group has bought these 23.12 million shares. Together with the shares that Empire Group bought before, Empire Group now controls more than 49% of the shares.
Many retail investors who had been queuing outside for an entire night did not expect that Empire Group would buy all the shares so quickly.
What does this mean?
They immediately wanted to make trouble. Others were eating meat and drinking soup, but they could not even drink the soup residue. How could they not make trouble?
It was useless for them to make trouble here.
The security personnel of Huifeng Securities Company and the police nearby immediately drove away the troublemakers.
"Why? We queued for an entire night last night, and Empire Group actually bought more than 20 million shares so quickly. This is definitely impossible."
"I suspect there is a shady transaction."
"I'm going to sue you!"
. . .
Some people said they would complain to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange about the shady deal.
Others quickly remembered that Jardine Matheson Land was also a company that could exchange stocks and bonds for Wharf Holdings' stocks.
Many investors immediately went to the place designated by Jardine Matheson Land after hearing the news.
When they just got there, they had already learned about it.
Last night, when Jardine Matheson Land just held a press conference, it was over.
That is to say, Jardine Matheson Land is simply impossible to exchange stocks with them.
Those investors reacted immediately.
This is clearly Jardine Matheson Land's deception. Jardine Matheson Land's own more than 10 million Wharf shares may have been sold to Empire Group.
. . .
Federal Building.
Empire Group.
Chairman's Office.
Yang Ming was sitting in a wheelchair.
Just now, he had handed over the stock information of today's stock market transactions to those responsible persons.
Yang Ming looked outside.
He knew that Huifeng Securities Company, not far away, should have bought 23.12 million Wharf shares at a high price according to his request.
Empire Group spent 2.4 billion Hong Kong dollars and finally increased Empire Group's shares in Wharf to 49%.
Basically, this means that Yang Ming has controlled Wharf.
"Lin Xiuzhi, call Tang Shilian."
"Yes, boss."
Tang Shilian was called to the chairman's office.
"Boss." Tang Shilian greeted.
"Tang Shilian, take two subordinates from the Finance Department with you and go to the Wharf Building with me."
"Yes, boss."
Tang Shilian was very excited when she heard it.
Although she didn't know what she was going to do, she knew it must be something.
In addition, except for Lin Xiuzhi and her two subordinates, only Chen Zhenhua and other bodyguards followed.
Go down to the basement parking lot.
Get on the Rolls-Royce.
The group drove to the Wharf Building in Central District.
Now the new Wharf Building has begun to be built in Tsim Sha Tsui, but it has not been completed yet, and the old building is still an office.
When Chen Zhenhua and his group drove to the outside of this Wharf Building.
There were many security personnel outside.
They had guessed that Mr. Yang, the chairman of the Empire Group, the new Wharf Group boss, would definitely come today.
When the folding wheelchair was taken off the Rolls-Royce, Chen Zhenhua helped Yang Ming get out of the car, followed by Lin Xiuzhi, Tang Shilian and others.
In addition, there were other bodyguards of Chen Zhenhua.
Many people were still shocked when they saw Yang Ming.
In addition to feeling that he was young.
They didn't expect that a rich man like Yang Ming was actually in a wheelchair.
When Yang Ming's wheelchair was pushed in.
Along the way, many Wharf employees watched, but did not dare to approach rashly.
All the way up to the 13th floor.
Yang Ming came out of the elevator.
Many Wharf managers came out to greet him.
Last night, after these Wharf managers heard the news, they knew that Jardine Matheson Land had lost and would definitely withdraw from Wharf.
They came over to greet the new boss Yang Ming.
Yang Ming simply responded.
When they arrived at the meeting room.
Yang Ming saw a middle-aged man in his forties who was plump.
This is Newbie, the boss of Jardine Matheson Land and Wharf.
Next to Newbie is Bao Fuda, the former executive director and general manager of Land.
Last night, Bao Fuda also knew that Jardine Matheson Land would definitely lose.
On the other hand, Jardine Matheson Land seems to have won again, earning more than 900 million Hong Kong dollars from Yang Ming, which is definitely a lot of money.
"Mr. Yang." Niubijian greeted first.
"Mr. Niubijian."
At this time, many newspaper reporters who had been waiting here took pictures of the scene in front of them.
"Mr. Niubijian, you should know without me saying that now the Empire Group and I are not only the largest shareholders of Wharf Holdings, but also control Wharf Holdings."
"Yes." Niubijian said.
Last night, he knew he had lost.
Although he didn't lose with conviction, he still didn't sleep well that night.
Today he came here early, first held a meeting and talked to the management of Wharf Holdings, and even prepared to poach some of the management.
However, most of the management of Wharf Holdings did not express their views, which means that they still have to consider what the attitude of the new owner Yang Ming is.
If Yang Ming wants to drive them all away, they will certainly jump to Jardine Matheson or Land.
If Yang Ming doesn't move them, they will definitely continue to stay in Wharf Holdings.
"Congratulations, Mr. Yang."
New Bijian said.
There is no need for New Bijian to give up his position.
Yang Ming is already the boss of Wharf Group and a director of Wharf's board of directors.
Jardine Land still has more than 100,000 shares of Wharf, which is actually meaningless.
When Jardine's boss New Bijian left with Bao Fuda in disgrace, Yang Ming sat in the chief position.
Next to him were Tang Shilian, the financial director of Empire Group, and his secretary assistant Lin Xiuzhi.
"Everyone, please take a seat."
These Wharf executives sat down in their respective seats.
"From today on, I will officially serve as the boss of Wharf and a director of the board of directors. Originally, there was only New Bijian on the board of directors. From now on, New Bijian has been expelled from the board of directors. In addition to me, Miss Tang Shilian, the financial director of Empire Group, and Miss Lin Xiuzhi, the assistant secretary of the chairman of Empire Group, have been added."
In other words, the three directors of the Wharf Group's board of directors are actually Yang Ming's people.
Others, naturally, did not object, and they could not object.
"In addition, apart from asking Ms. Tang Shilian to send two financial personnel to check the finances of Wharf, no changes will be made to the management of each department."
