Chapter 77 The Ruler Chooses His Subjects, and the Subjects Choose Their Ruler!
Since ancient times.
The ruler chooses his ministers, and the ministers choose their rulers.
Maris was a top student at Cambridge University. Later, he came to Singapore and served as the CEO of Tiger Balm Company in Singapore.
Li Jiacheng had business dealings with Tiger Balm Company because of his investment in Singapore. Since he met Maris, he has been very impressed with Maris's ability.
Li Jiacheng has invited Maris to join his company many times.
Even though Changkang Industrial had a certain strength later, Maris still did not agree, and he always declined politely.
A few years ago, Maris left Singapore and came to Hong Kong to develop. He served as a manager in this company, but his reputation was not high. Except for Li Jiacheng occasionally contacting him, Maris has been observing the development of major companies in Hong Kong.
Since the 1970s, Chinese capital in Hong Kong has been gradually rising. However, after all, British companies have been developing for so many years, and Hong Kong is still dominated by British capital.
He can see that among the Chinese capital in Hong Kong now, the most promising ones are Chinese businessmen such as Li Jiacheng and Bao Yugang.
Li Jiacheng had been trying hard to invite Mai Lisi to join Changgang Industrial Group. Mai Lisi did not agree rashly. He just wanted to see which company had a better future and which company's boss was more suitable for him.
What he didn't expect was that some time ago, the Chinese Empire Group suddenly attacked Jardine Matheson Land and swallowed up Wharf Holdings.
This made Mai Lisi start to focus on the Empire Group and Yang Ming.
Mai Lisi secretly investigated and found that the Empire Group had just been established not long ago, and its strength was very strong, and its capital flow was very strong. While Jardine Matheson Land had not yet reacted, it had successfully attacked Jardine Matheson Land and easily swallowed up Wharf Holdings.
At that time, Mai Lisi began to be curious about Yang Ming in a wheelchair.
Even so, he felt that Yang Ming could swallow up Wharf Holdings, but he might not be able to swallow up Hutchison Whampoa, the second largest foreign company in Hong Kong.
What he didn't expect was that it had only been a few days.
The Empire Group and Huifeng Bank reached a deal.
The formal acquisition of Hutchison International's shares held by Huifeng Bank means that the Empire Group has acquired a second foreign company after acquiring Wharf Holdings.
This is the second largest foreign company among the four major foreign companies in Hong Kong.
This began to make Mai Lisi interested in Yang Ming.
This mysterious young man was just like the mysterious East, which made him completely unable to see through, and he couldn't understand why Shen Yi suddenly sold Hutchison International's shares to Yang Ming.
At this time, he added Yang Ming and the Empire Group to his inspection list.
His inspection list also included Li Jiacheng of Changgang Industrial and Bao Yugang of Global Shipping. They were all on his inspection list.
Now he was most curious about Mr. Yang of the Empire Group. He wanted to meet Yang Ming.
The king chooses his ministers.
The ministers choose their king.
Mai Lisi thought that Yang Ming didn't know him, so he wouldn't take the initiative to find him.
Now he found Yang Ming himself, which was also a self-recommendation.
The most important thing, Mai Lisi knew.
Although the current Empire Group has more than 200 people, there is no management team that can be shown off.
. . .
Yang Ming left Hutchison House.
When he took a Rolls-Royce back to the Federal Building.
He took the elevator to the office of the chairman of the Empire Group.
When Lin Xiuzhi went to make coffee for Yang Ming, Yang Ming thought of the executives he had just seen in Hutchison House, and his mood was naturally bad.
In his previous life, he didn't understand why Li Jiacheng would be like that after acquiring Hutchison Whampoa.
Now when Yang Ming thinks from Li Jiacheng's perspective, he has understood that the white management of Hutchison Whampoa must be divided, otherwise, how could Hutchison Whampoa truly belong to his private company.
Yang Ming drank the coffee made by Lin Xiuzhi, his eyes still looking out the window.
There was a knock on the door.
Lin Xiuzhi went to open the door.
After a while, she came in and said, "Boss, a white man who calls himself Miles wants to see you."
Miles?
Historically, Li Jiacheng's right-hand man.
Yang Ming remembered that it was after Li Jiacheng swallowed up Hutchison Whampoa, that is, after acquiring Hutchison Whampoa in 1979, that Mai Lisi joined the Changkang Industrial Group and gradually became the second-in-command of Li Jiacheng and the Changkang Industrial Group.
At this time, it was just the beginning of 1978.
Mai Lisi must not have joined Li Jiacheng's Changkang Industrial Group.
Yang Ming did not expect that he did not go to find Mai Lisi, but Mai Lisi came to him instead.
He knew that this was strength.
If he had not swallowed up Wharf and Hutchison Whampoa, it would be impossible for someone like Mai Lisi to work for him.
Even Li Jiacheng, in history, Mai Lisi was willing to join the Changkang Industrial Group only after successfully acquiring Hutchison Whampoa.
"Lin Xiuzhi, please invite Mr. Mai Lisi in."
Lin Xiuzhi went out in person to invite Mai Lisi.
Now Mai Lisi is wearing a suit, which is no different from other white men.
He glanced at the Empire Group office area and followed Lin Xiuzhi to the chairman's office.
When he arrived at the chairman's office.
He saw a young man sitting in a wheelchair, drinking coffee.
This was Yang Ming, the now famous chairman of the Empire Group in Hong Kong.
"Hello, Mr. Yang."
Mai Lisi took the initiative to greet him.
"Mr. Mai Lisi?"
Yang Ming naturally knew Mai Lisi.
That was because he knew this person when he studied the Hong Kong economy in his previous life.
Yang Ming knew that Mai Lisi and Ma Shimin were the most important white management representatives in the Li Jiacheng Group. He also suspected that Li Jiacheng transferred most of his wealth to Great Britain in history, and that Mai Lisi played a big role in promoting and suggesting it. effect.
"Mr. Yang, congratulations on your acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa. Now the strength of the Qinhe Empire Group is greater than that of Jardine Matheson." Merlis said respectfully.
Now, outsiders don’t know the strength of the Imperial Group alone.
However, the strength of Hutchison Whampoa and Wharf has exceeded the current strength of Jardine Matheson Land.
"However, I think there are big hidden dangers here."
Meris glanced at Lin Xiuzhi next to him, thought for a moment and then said, "Mr. Yang, I want to talk to you alone."
When Yang Ming heard this, he already guessed the purpose of Mailisi's visit.
He is not Liu Bei, and Meris is not Zhuge Liang.
Historically, Li Jiacheng recruited Mai Lisi many times, but Mai Lisi refused. It was not until Li Jiacheng swallowed up Hutchison Whampoa that the other party was willing to come out to work for Li Jiacheng.
In his previous life, Merisi had been working diligently at Li Jiacheng and Changchun Industrial Group, and until he retired, he was assisting Li Jiacheng's eldest son.
It is enough to show that Meris is a man of good ability and loyal.
Yang Ming knew that what he asked for was definitely different from what he got.
"Lin Xiuzhi, you go out first."
Lin Xiuzhi went out and closed the door, but Yang Ming wanted to hear what Merlis said about his so-called hidden dangers.
