Not to mention that the competition for the inheritance among the three young masters of the Xu family will become fierce, but that the death of Mr. Xu has given countless careerists the opportunity to enter the shipping industry and take charge of the port.

…

At this moment, on the vast sea of ​​Victoria Harbor, a luxury cruise ship docked near the coast.

In the luxurious hall, there are private banquets, sumptuous dinners, and expensive wines.

The tycoon Henry Zhaotian, the vice president of HSBC Bank Shen Bi, and the president of Cheung Kong Holdings Li Jiacheng sat on both sides of the banquet.

In addition, there are three fashionable girls in dresses accompanying them, among them is Bai Xiaoman, the current red-headed female star with half the sky.

Bai Xiaoman is now one of Shaw Brothers' leading actresses, but her acting skills have been criticized, and she is often said to have relied on her sex to get to the top.

In fact, this seventeen-year-old female star came from a very poor background. Her father died young and her mother raised her and several brothers and sisters.

Bai Xiaoman was famous as a little girl when she was in school. She usually hung out in dance clubs and nightclubs, so her reputation was not very good when she debuted. She was also looked down upon by many orthodox actors and actors with good backgrounds.

In fact, these beauties, including Bai Xiaoman, were recruited by Li Zhaotian with a lot of money to accompany them to drink and play with them. Five thousand yuan per person per night was definitely a big sum in this era.

Of course, not all of the beauties who were recruited to accompany the drinks were easy to talk to. Some of them claimed that they were "performing their art but not selling their bodies." However, after Li Zhaotian threw money at them, these beauties who claimed to be "performing their art but not selling their bodies" became easy to talk to.

And after having her for the first time, she took the initiative to call Li Zhaotian to make an appointment, hoping to find time to have a drink and coffee together.

"Haha! God is helping me!" Li Zhaotian looked very excited and read the obituary in the newspaper again and again.

Shen Bi sipped her tea and remained silent.

Li Jiacheng looked pitiful, shook his head and said: "Mr. Li, I don't think it is a good thing that Mr. Xu passed away! He worked hard for Hong Kong's shipping industry and trained many outstanding talents for this industry. He

The old man deserves respect!"

Li Zhaotian put down the newspaper in his hand, glanced at Li Jiacheng with his eyelids, and said meaningfully: "Boss Li, as a human being, it's okay to wear a mask to do charity and pretend to be kind! It also depends on the time and occasion. Sometimes if you pretend too much, you will be

It seems so hypocritical!”

Li Jiacheng got angry, adjusted his glasses and said, "Mr. Li, what do you mean by that? I've always been the same as I am! Don't underestimate me!"

Shen Bi said: "Don't argue, you two. In fact, there are no outsiders here. If Li Sheng has anything to say, just say it. I think Boss Li will understand and support you!"

Seeing that a big shot like Shen Bi was trying to smooth things over, Li Zhaotian smiled, raised his glass and said to Li Jiacheng: "I'm sorry, Boss Li, maybe I was rude just now, so I'll punish myself with a drink!"

After Li Zhaotian finished speaking, he drank it all in one gulp.

Normally, Li Zhaotianduan would not be so polite to Li Jiacheng, but now that he needs Li Jiacheng's help, of course he must be polite.

When Li Jiacheng saw Li Zhaotian apologizing, he quickly raised his wine glass and said, "I've done something wrong too, so I'll punish myself with a drink!"

Shen Bi winked at the waitress. The girl sitting next to Li Zhaotian and the girl sitting next to Li Jiacheng immediately poured the drinks for them again.

Li Zhaotian wiped the corner of his mouth with his thumb, and then said with an arrogant expression: "Boss Li, in fact, I and Mr. Shen have already discussed this time and want to win the Wharf!"

Li Jiacheng's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, but he remained calm on the surface.

"As we all know, the Xu family holds a part of the shares of Wharf. Now that Mr. Xu has passed away, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me!"

Li Jiacheng made a quick calculation in his mind. Wharf was affiliated to Jardine Matheson and Co., and according to the rules of the foreign company, Chinese capital would not be allowed to control it. However, this foreign company was not managed well, so that it sold part of its equity to external parties two years ago. This part of the equity was sold to Xu Shipping, The three major families, Huo's Shipping and the chartering king, were divided among them.

Even so, the equity they hold still cannot shake the control of foreign capital over Jardine. Why does Li Zhaotian want to take over Wharf?

"You must be very curious as to why I won the Wharf! You know what I said, just because of my three words, Li Zhaotian!" Li Zhaotian said with great pride.

Li Jiacheng remained calm, picked up the tea, took a sip, put it down, and picked up the chopsticks to eat the food.

Seeing that Li Jiacheng was still pretending, Li Zhaotian sneered and said: "I have calculated that Wharf's equity on the market now accounts for about half and thirty percent, with the Xu family, Huo family, and Bao family each holding 100%. Ten, if I can swallow 20%, I will have a controlling stake in Wharf!"

"As for the remaining 20%, Chief Executive Shen will help me!" Li Zhaotian looked at HSBC Chief Executive Shen Bi.

Shen Bi smiled and said: "It's very simple. Jardine Matheson has 20% equity mortgage in our HSBC, and it is about to expire now. If they don't redeem it, we have the right to dispose of it, either through public auction, or ——" Looking at Li Zhaotian, "Transfer!"

Li Jiacheng smiled, stretched out his chopsticks, picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth. He looked up at Li Zhaotian and said, "I'm curious, how did you get the shares of Xu, Huo and Bao?"

Li Zhaotian also smiled, "I need your help now!"

"Let me help, how can I help?"

"It's easy, just take the money!"

"Well?"

"I'm going to raise 50 million to take 30% of the equity of three of them! So you come up with 20 million!"

When Li Jiacheng heard this, his first reaction was to answer "I have no money"!

Are you kidding me, how many people in business have cash?! Let alone 20 million!

When doing business these days, if you want to snowball your business, you need to get a loan from a bank!
