Chapter 870: What is the plot?

The phone rings.

Lin Feng smiled when he saw the phone number.

"Hello, Richard (Li Zekai), good evening!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

"CB (abbreviation for Chineseboy), you are still in the mood to laugh, and you can still laugh in this situation." Compared to Lin Feng's good mood, Li Zekai sighed repeatedly.

"Haha, how could I not laugh when I received your call? Also, why are you so depressed? You should be more positive." Lin Feng joked.

Li Zekai was speechless for a while. At this time, Lin Feng actually came to persuade him to be more positive in life. Li Zekai really didn't know whether to say that Lin Feng had a big heart or that Lin Feng was heartless.

"Okay, cb, what do you want now? Is there any way?" Putting aside these distracting thoughts, Li Zekai asked worriedly.

Although the acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank is Lin Feng's personal action, Lin Feng, Li Zekai, Tang Jiacheng, and Zheng Zhiheng have become a team of interests. They all benefit from each other and suffer from losses. Lin Feng's interests are directly related to their small team.

Future prospects. What's more, as a Chinese, Li Zekai definitely doesn't want Lin Feng to be laughed at, played by others, and driven out of the Standard Chartered Board of Directors like this. In particular, Li Zekai doesn't want Lin Feng to be teased like this by the British. Hong Kong falls to the British

It has been in the hands of the government for too long. Although it has returned now, it will always be a pain in the hearts of some knowledgeable people. Especially back then, Hong Kong residents were always second-class citizens in the eyes of the British, which made young and talented people like Li Zekai even more miserable.

The rich people are not angry.

This time, Lam Feng was able to acquire Standard Chartered Bank, which is very symbolic for Hong Kong rich people like Li Zekai. It is something worth celebrating and will be remembered in history. In particular, Standard Chartered Bank also owns the general Hong Kong dollar issuance

Quan, this is even more serious. Therefore, if possible, Li Zekai will definitely support Lin Feng and will support him to the end!

"Richard, I do have a plan. And it's already being implemented, so don't worry. But right now, I still need some help." Lin Feng smiled mysteriously and suddenly said something irrelevant, "Richard,

Now is the 21st century, your father’s generation is old, and it’s our turn in this world.”

"cb, what do you mean?" Richard's heart beat wildly after hearing this, not knowing what Lin Feng wanted.

"Haha, Richard, ask Tang Jiacheng and Zheng Zhiheng if they want to have a big time. If so, are they interested in joining my Standard Chartered Bank and becoming a director of Standard Chartered Bank!" Lin Feng threw out an incredible question.

The bait of rejection.

"Become a director of Standard Chartered Bank?" When Li Zekai heard this, his heart moved. His mind turned slightly, and he immediately understood Lin Feng's intention.

"Lin, are you planning to..." Li Zekai broke out in cold sweat on his forehead. Lin Feng was really preparing to do something big this time.

"That's right, I plan to make Standard Chartered Bank's surname completely 'Zhong' (China) and 'Lin' this time." Lin Feng punched the table fiercely.

These British directors made trouble this time, which completely angered Lin Feng. Originally, when Lin Feng acquired Standard Chartered Bank, he was prepared to live in harmony with these British directors as long as they did not make trouble, but now these British directors have threatened to kick him out.

Then Lin Feng will no longer be polite. Since you want to drive me away, then I will drive you away first. Lin Feng is ready to drive the British forces out of Standard Chartered Bank completely.

However, if these British forces are to be driven out of Standard Chartered Bank now, it will inevitably cause an immeasurable heavy blow to Standard Chartered Bank. After all, these British forces have been operating in Standard Chartered Bank for hundreds of years, and their influence has long been intertwined and influenced by every move.

The whole body. Just like this time, under the call of these British directors, more than half of the employees of Standard Chartered Bank resigned, which almost caused Standard Chartered Bank to collapse instantly. Fortunately, with the intervention of the Hong Kong government, Standard Chartered Bank Hong Kong Branch (Standard Chartered Bank III)

Two-thirds of the business is in Southeast Asia, and Hong Kong is the Asian headquarters) Only a small number of people have resigned, otherwise Standard Chartered Bank would have been overtaken.

Under this situation, Lin Feng will have to drive out many British forces, which will definitely deal the heaviest blow to Standard Chartered Bank. Therefore, if you want to drive out these British directors, you must first stabilize Standard Chartered Bank and stabilize the market's perception of Standard Chartered Bank.

Gradually declining popularity and confidence.

Two-thirds of Standard Chartered Bank's business is in Southeast Asia, especially Hong Kong. It is the top priority of Standard Chartered Bank. Therefore, Lam Feng hopes to attract Hong Kong rich people to join Standard Chartered Bank and use the popularity and influence of many rich people in Hong Kong to stabilize Standard Chartered Bank.

After stabilization, Lam Feng will begin to eradicate dissident behavior and completely "sinoify" Standard Chartered Bank.

But when it comes to attracting Hong Kong's richest people to join the business, Lam Feng does not want to find those older generations, such as Li Ka-shing. Of course, asking them to invest in Standard Chartered Bank will naturally have many benefits for stabilizing the current situation of Standard Chartered Bank, but relatively speaking, these older generation

The rich people of this generation are more utilitarian and conservative, and think of an escape route for everything. This style of behavior makes Lin Feng extremely dissatisfied. If you think of all the escape routes for everything, you will lose momentum and lose some opportunities.

And this is also the fundamental difference in the concepts of the older generation of rich people and the younger generation of rich people. The older generation of rich people work steadily, not seeking merit, but seeking no mistakes, so their wealth accumulation is slow, but very solid. And the younger generation

, but very radical and very eager to succeed, so sometimes it is unavoidable to be extreme in doing things, but it is possible to get rich overnight. Of course, an unstable foundation is a drawback. But now, step by step can no longer solve the problem, you must have leaping thinking and

means to resolve the current crisis.

Therefore, Lin Feng hopes to attract the second generation of rich people like Li Zekai to invest in Standard Chartered Bank. They are more energetic, more motivated and ambitious, and are willing to take risks. This fits Lin Feng's requirements very well. Especially, there are these real rich people behind them.

They can still borrow the influence of these super-rich people (such as Li Ka-shing and others). And more importantly, Li Zekai and others have enough cash in their hands, and Lin Feng needs this cash now.

"How about it, Richard, are you interested in becoming a director of Standard Chartered Bank?" Lin Fengxiao asked.

Regarding Li Zekai's answer, Lin Feng was very confident. If Lin Feng had approached Li Zekai immediately when the Standard Chartered Bank crisis broke out, he might not have agreed. But now that Li Zekai has called him personally, it means that he is willing to help Lin Feng. This

This is also the reason why Lin Feng has not contacted Li Zekai and others in the past two days. Lin Feng needs to know who is willing to help him when he is in the most critical moment. And in this case, the people who are willing to help him will be

A person that Lin Feng can truly rely on in the future.

"CB, no problem. I believe Tang Jiacheng and Zheng Zhiheng are also very interested." Li Zekai smiled. He was very interested in investing in Standard Chartered Bank, and he could very well combat the arrogance of these British directors. Don't think they are like this

With Lam Fung alone, we can drive Lam Feng out. There are people in the UK, and there are people in Lam Feng. Many wealthy people in Hong Kong are very willing to help Lam Feng.

"Well, but Richard, I have to say something up front. Regarding the equity in my hands, I will transfer it to you in an appropriate amount. However, I will have the first right to purchase these equity." Lin Fengchou said before. Although

Now we have a very good relationship and happy cooperation, but Lin Feng does not want any other situation to occur in the future that will cause the outflow of Standard Chartered Bank shares. Standard Chartered Bank must belong to himself.

"cb, no problem, these are not problems." Li Zekai didn't care about this. Anyway, he had no intention of selling these shares. This would be the best connection to maintain the relationship between the four of them.

For Li Zekai, if friends want to maintain a relationship, in addition to feelings, it is best to have common interests. Only when the interests are common, the relationship will be unbreakable. Therefore, feelings are the most mysterious thing in the world.

Things are also the most unpredictable things. Especially in business, if you only rely on feelings, judging from countless past examples, it is far more likely that you will be stabbed by a friend in the mall than a friend will provide help at a critical moment.

After all, people are selfish, and there is nothing in this world that cannot be betrayed or abandoned. The premise is whether the interests that allow you to betray or abandon these things can overwhelm what you insist on in your heart!

Later, Lam Feng, Li Zekai, Tang Jiacheng and Zheng Zhiheng reached a share transfer agreement in Standard Chartered Bank. Lam Feng's 28.09% personally owned shares will be sold to Li Zekai, Tang Jiacheng and Zheng Zhiheng each for 3% of the shares at a price of HK$89 per share.

This is also a benefit given by Lin Feng to the three people. It is also a reward for the three people's support for him and the support of the family behind the three people's persuasion, as well as compensation for reaching this unequal treaty. Otherwise, Lin Feng would not only ask for their support, but also

If you don't give them benefits, this kind of cooperation will never last long, and it will be very emotional!

After the transaction, Lin Feng owned 38.1% of Standard Chartered Bank (including 14.5% held by Bao Peili and 7.51% held by Robert Holm. Lin Feng also sold 3% of the shares to another heavyweight). Li Zekai,

Tang Jiacheng and Zheng Zhiheng each own 3% of the shares.

At this time, Lam Feng had US$1.795 billion in cash left in his hands. After selling 12% of Standard Chartered Bank shares, Lam Feng had a total of US$3.509 billion in cash. Then, Lam Feng allocated US$3 billion in funds from the "Second Game"

("Second Game" still has 4.02 billion US dollars in cash on its account. Originally, Lin Feng wanted to borrow more, but "Second Game" will invest in several game hardware production lines, which will cost billions of dollars to produce "Dream"

"Handheld and subsequent home consoles, plus liquidity guarantee (since "Second Game" will not be able to borrow more funds for the time being), we have a total of US$6.509 billion in cash on hand, which is enough to realize Lin Feng's plan.

Originally, Lam Feng could borrow funds through Standard Chartered Bank, but with the current situation of Standard Chartered Bank, once Lam Feng borrows funds through Standard Chartered Bank, it will be completely fulfilled. The outside world will think that Lam Feng acquired Standard Chartered Bank just to borrow funds, not to operate a bank.

, this kind of suspicion and evaluation will plunge Standard Chartered Bank into the abyss.

US$6.509 billion is enough for Lin Feng to act! As for the fact that he actually owns only 16.09% of the shares of Standard Chartered Bank, Lin Feng does not care at the moment. He still has follow-up means to increase his holdings. The 38% shares held by those directors can be

Lam Feng has always been thinking about it. The 16.09% stake, plus the 38% stake, is enough for Lam Feng to completely control Standard Chartered Bank again.

"By the way, Richard, you, Tang Jiacheng, and Zheng Zhiheng will fly to London immediately. My special plane is already waiting for you at the Hong Kong Airport." Lin Feng smiled.

"Ha, you Lin Feng, it turned out that I had already predicted that I would call you. I already knew that we would buy shares in Standard Chartered Bank." Li Zekai laughed after hearing this. Although he was plotted by Lin Feng, he was not annoyed. After all, this time

With such a big matter, Lin Feng should be more cautious. What's more, Lin Feng has also given them enough benefits. They can imagine that once they attend the press conference together tomorrow and jointly announce their investment in Standard Chartered Bank, they will have a great impact on Standard Chartered Bank.

What an impact the stock price has had. It is bound to rise across the board. You know, Li Zekai, Tang Jiacheng, and Zheng Zhiheng are all billionaires now, and the families behind them are all prominent figures in Hong Kong. They also directly influence Hong Kong's financial industry.

pattern.

What's more, the appearance of the three people also illustrates the attitude of Hong Kong's wealthy circles towards Lam Feng to a certain extent. With the support of Hong Kong's wealthy people and two-thirds of its business in Southeast Asia (mainly Hong Kong), Standard Chartered Bank will be in trouble if its stock price does not rise.

! Of course, this is only to temporarily stabilize people's hearts. What is really important is to see whether Lam Feng can cope with the severe incident of a large number of employees of Standard Chartered Bank resigning. If they cannot cope with it, their intervention will only temporarily ease the downward trend of Standard Chartered Bank and give all Standard Chartered Bank

Bank customers only have a little confidence.

However, Li Zekai believed that Lin Feng would be able to solve this crisis.

When Li Zekai, Tang Jiacheng, and Zheng Zhiheng rushed to the airport, they boarded Lin Feng's plane and accidentally discovered another person, Zong Qinghou from Wahaha Group.

"Haha, we have never had the chance to meet these three young heroes, but we finally get to meet them this time. Nice to meet you! Nice to meet you!" Zong Qinghou greeted the three of them with a smile on his face.

Li Zekai and the others were shocked. They did not expect that Wahaha Group President Zong Qinghou would also be on Lin Feng's special plane. Apparently Zong Qinghou also attended this press conference.

Li Zekai and the others guessed correctly. Zong Qinghou was also invited by Lin Feng to go to London after actively contacting Lin Feng. Zong Qinghou, like Li Zekai and others, owns 3% of the shares of Standard Chartered Bank. Regarding this investment in Standard Chartered Bank

, Zong Qinghou was also quite surprised. He did not expect that Lin Feng would sell the shares of Standard Chartered Bank to himself, but in this way, the relationship between the two would be closer, and Zong Qinghou's acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank shares and Li Zekai and others' acquisitions

It has a completely different meaning. In this regard, Zong Qinghou can only admire Lin Feng. This time he played too much!

What exactly does Lin Feng want?——Li Zekai and the others secretly guessed.
