Shen Bi's answer was unexpected.
"Mr. Li, Hutchison Whampoa's minimum value per share is HK$14.4, so..." He stopped and looked at Li Zetian, but he didn't clearly say what was going on, but generally speaking, if you want to acquire Everyone else's shares have to pay a premium.
When Li Zetian heard this, he couldn't help but feel angry. You sold it to Li Jiacheng for half the price, and you sold it to me at a premium. Thinking that I have money, are you willing to take advantage of it
The private conversation between Shen Bi and Li Jiacheng was a top secret. In the end, no one would have thought that HSBC would sell 20% of Hutchison Whampoa's shares to Li Jiacheng at a 50% discount and repay him with a loan. However, Li Zetian is different. He has read the biography of Li Jiacheng in his previous life. The book tells in detail that the Cheung Kong Industrial Company "Snake Tunxiang" won the shares of Hutchison Whampoa. Up to now, Li Zetian still has a deep memory.
What Shen Bi was thinking was that Li Zetian definitely didn't know about his private conversation with Li Jiacheng. Since Li Zetian, who was rich in money, wanted to buy the shares of Hutchison Whampoa, he should sell it to him and take the opportunity to sell it for a good price.
Li Zetian held back his anger and asked calmly, "Mr. Shen, just say how much you want."
Shen Bi hesitated for a moment and replied, "17 Hong Kong dollars per share!"
Li Zetian suddenly laughed angrily, "Is 17 Hong Kong dollars too little, why not just say 20 Hong Kong dollars per share!"
Shen Bi couldn't hear Li Zetian's irony, and knew that his offer made the other party angry.
"Mr. Li, if you think my offer is too high, how much do you think is appropriate?" Shen Bi said.
Li Zetian was just about to sneer at the other party, when the waiter came over and started serving the dishes.
During the serving process, Li Zetian tried his best to calm down. It is precisely because he is very clear about the transaction between Shen Bi and Li Jiacheng that he is so angry. This is clearly unfair treatment, and Li Zetian can't stand it!
Li Zetian picked up the red wine, shook it, and said, "I'm very curious about what Li Jiacheng used to buy the shares of Hutchison Whampoa, Mr. Shen, I wonder if you can talk about it?"
Shen Bi was stunned when he heard the words, but he quickly reacted and replied with a smile: "I'm sorry, Mr. Li, this is a commercial secret, I'm sorry I can't tell you!"
"That's true! If you say it, I'm afraid you won't be able to charge me such a high price. Are you saying yes, Mr. Shen?" Li Zetian said sarcastically, then snorted lightly, and placed a glass of red wine. All in one drink.
Shen Bi sneered and said, "Mr. Li, your words are really humorous, hehe..."
"Humor? Isn't what I said true?" Li Zetian started without saying hello, picked up a knife and fork, cut a small piece of steak into his mouth, and said while eating. polite? Oh, get away! ! !
Shen Bi's expression looked very embarrassed.
Li Zetian ate lunch with his head down, without looking at him, and continued to ask: "Mr. Shen, HSBC values Li Jiacheng very much, right? He even plans to use Li Jiacheng to win the favor of Beijing, so that HSBC can make a smooth transition after the return of Hong Kong. , the business operation will not be affected by politics? Well, I have to say, Mr. Shen, you are really an excellent strategic investor... "
On the surface of Shen Bi, there was no wave in the ancient well, and there was no change, but he was very surprised, because Li Zetian had guessed the idea that he had planned for a long time!
"It's just that although Li Jiacheng is Chinese, he has Canadian nationality. Even if Hong Kong returns, it is impossible for the Chinese side to recognize him as a Chinese citizen. Hehe, Mr. Shen, are you sure that HSBC will invest in Li Jiacheng and there will be no problem in the future?" Li Zetian raised his head and looked into his eyes at this moment, and smiled meaningfully.
Shen Bi frowned and remained silent for a long time, unable to speak. No one could guarantee such a thing.
Li Zetian stood up at this time and said, "I will invite you to this lunch. If HSBC is sincere, we will discuss it again."
After he finished speaking, he left without looking back.
Afterwards, Li Zetian asked the driver to take a look at the university invested by the LY Foundation. In two or three years, the university has begun to take shape. The first batch of students was just enrolled in September this year, with about 4,200 students.
The name of the school is U University, ordered by the parent company under the name of Li Zetian, Hong Kong people translate it as Zhetian University, and mainlanders like to call it Umbrella University!
This is a top institution built with huge sums of money. Hong Kong newspapers call "Zhetian University" the top aristocratic university in Hong Kong. The teaching staff and school equipment are top-notch in the world. It has seven academic colleges: Engineering College, Business College, Energy and the School of Environmental Sciences, the School of Arts and Sciences, the School of Medicine, and the School of Law. In addition, there are more than 350 teachers (professors, associate professors, lecturers), who are basically poached from famous universities in the world. Although the number is small, the quality is better. After all, there are not many students in the school. When there are more students in the future, more talents will be poached.
Zhetian University is very similar to Stanford University and the University of California, Berkeley, and attaches great importance to the development of computers. Li Zetian really wanted to develop Hong Kong into the "Silicon Valley of the United States" around "Zhitian University". Hong Kong is ruined by real estate and finance, and there is almost no achievement in high-tech and manufacturing. The film and television industry, too, developed well in the first place, but it has become increasingly ineffective since then. Hong Kong movies in the 1980s and 1990s are so good, they have become unforgettable memories for many people.
After Li Zetian came to the school, he soon met the principal, who was actually his father Li Chengzhi.
Li Chengzhi took him to visit the school while giving an introduction.
When the students in the school saw Li Zetian, they were all surprised, watched him, and whispered.
"Oh my God, Chronos Li has come to our school!"
Some of the girls seemed to be Li Zetian's fans, so they couldn't help shouting in excitement, but seeing a lot of cold-looking and burly bodyguards, no one dared to come forward.
Li Chengzhi smiled and said: "The students who come to school here basically regard you as an idol. Besides, because of your relationship, they don't call me the principal in private..."
"Uh, what are you calling?" Li Zetian asked curiously.
Li Chengzhi shook his head and said with a smile, "What is there to say about the nickname..."
Li Zetian suddenly laughed and said, "Is it because the nickname is ugly, so I'm embarrassed to say it?"
Li Chengzhi just laughed without saying a word.
Li Zetian smiled noncommittally, thinking that I wouldn't know if I didn't say it...
After more than an hour, the two came to the principal's office to rest.
"More than half of the school is still undergoing expansion, and we are also recruiting more well-known professors and lecturers." Li Chengzhi poured two cups of tea.
Li Zetian took a sip of tea and said, "The establishment of Zhetian University hopes to change the development of Hong Kong..."
