After the three meow Corps ran away, Xiangjiang was really clean. Even the people of the Hong Kong government were relieved, but the alliance of the four consortia did not feel relaxed.
The reason is not difficult to understand. Although the action of the three meow Legion to help Jardine with the exemption bill, even if it is not blocked, it will at least lose its timeliness, the scruples caused by the actual sense of Zhengzhi blackmail are not so easy to eliminate.
No one is willing to admit that he can be regarded as a big man, but he can't carry things at the critical moment! How can we advance effectively or exit with dignity?
The leaders of the four consortia sat together to discuss countermeasures. Does the suspension of the new central Diwang project mean that Jardine's weakness has reached a new level? Why don't you give it a last shot and do it again?
The final decision was to take the lead under Li Bancheng, but Li Bancheng really didn't have the courage. He frowned, didn't know what he was thinking, and didn't say anything.
When Li Zhaoji began to get impatient, suddenly Jardine took the initiative to contact him. The two sides sat down and had a good talk about the acquisition of Jardine by four consortia.
There is a saying that this phenomenon is very rare. Before, Jardine was either very arrogant or delayed again and again. Unexpectedly, now its attitude is positive.
Let's talk. The leaders of the four consortia went straight to Jardine's headquarters building and met Simon kesek, Bao Weishi and others.
"Before that, Li Sheng, on behalf of the four consortia, gave Jardine three options." Simon kaiserk went straight to the theme, "I can give a clear answer of refusal to acquire the control of Jardine in the so-called friendly way."
Speaking of this, Simon kaiserk accentuated his tone and looked aggressively at the leaders of the four consortia, "as for the comprehensive acquisition war, it is not good for both sides. I think you have understood that your odds of victory are not as high as you expected!"
"The second option is Jardine's repurchase of Jardine's shares in the hands of four consortia. I can accept it. It can be regarded as giving each other a decent step."
"However, I also have one condition, that is, the four consortia guarantee that they will not acquire the shares of Jardine's first series companies in the next ten years."
"I think you can understand this requirement. Without this restriction, if the thawing period comes and you take the recovered funds to buy Jardine again, it will become a new business textbook."
After listening to Simon kesek's claims of concessions, the leaders of the four consortia were quite surprised, because in their ideas, Jardine could only choose from the first option and the third option, and the second option, which was close to "rip off", was to make up.
Li Bancheng asked quietly, how much is Jardine's going to bid to buy back Jardine's shares in the hands of four consortia?
Bao Weishi replied that the four consortia offered 17 yuan per share for the acquisition of Jardine's control, and Jardine would buy it back at 17 yuan per share.
To tell you the truth, Li Bancheng, who has begun to worry a lot, is greatly moved. The so-called "satisfactory price" itself is a very subjective statement. If he stops here, it will not lose dignity.
However, the alliance of the four consortia should advance and retreat together, and Li Bancheng, the leader, was particularly bad to take the lead in retreating, so he turned his eyes to the leaders of the other three consortia. If everyone had no objection, it would be better to make a decision on the spot and get out as soon as possible.
Li Zhaoji said with a cold face, "we need to think about it."
Simon kaiserk smiled and agreed with a sense of oppression. However, I only give you 24 hours. I believe it's enough to think clearly.
After leaving Jardine's headquarters building and temporarily finding a meeting place, Li Zhaoji snorted angrily, "what's the matter? Look at Simon kesek's virtue. It's like we begged him to buy back Jardine's shares. We also made a ten-year appointment. We still have to be bound by him when we do business?
Li Bancheng gave a dry smile. Naturally, on the negotiation table, he exhausted all kinds of game means to suppress his opponent without being serious. What do you think of Simon kesek's proposal?
Guo Desheng frowned slightly. If he accepted Simon kaiserk's proposal, it would be a bit of a tiger's head and a snake's tail.
In fact, he still had an idea in his mind. It seems that his son wants to make a lot of money in a book. He hasn't retired yet, so he's being compared! What's the prestige?
Zheng Yutong yawned. Indeed, it was too far from our initial expectation. The purchase price was only 17 yuan per share. That was the purchase price we gave Simon kesek.
Obviously, at this time, the alliance of the four consortia has appeared cracks.
Li Bancheng smiled bitterly and blamed me for my thoughtlessness, which put you in a dilemma. How about this? I'll buy all your Jardine's shares at 20 yuan per share. Let me finish this joint action.
Zheng Yutong, Guo Desheng and Li Zhaoji shook their heads at the same time, because there are a lot of stress in the circle, such as being modest verbally and not enough in their own position, but in fact, they absolutely cherish feathers. This invisible sign is expensive, which is related to how much financing there is in the bank.
If the three consortia really resell all the Jardine's shares to Li Bancheng to achieve the goal of leaving the whole body, it is equivalent to admitting that they are not as good as Li Bancheng.
This situation is very similar to the xingguangxing incident more than ten years ago. Huo Yingdong, who has abundant financial resources, could have bought xingguangxing shares held by other shareholders, and then put xingguangxing there and let the British sanction. I think what new tricks can you play? But others are unwilling, just for the face of the circle.
Of course, Li Bancheng understood the psychology of the three. He didn't need to point it out. He just smiled and waited for the unwilling three to come up with ideas.
Li Zhaoji took the lead in opening up. Maybe we can go to Sir Gao to find a satisfactory response.
Zheng Yu patted her thigh with her, right!
Guo Desheng also nodded. Sir Gao has always been resourceful.
Seeing this, Li Bancheng felt a little sour. You don't want to admit that the Duan is not as good as me, but you have no psychological burden to admit that the Duan is not as good as Gao Xian. It's really unreasonable!
However, Li Bancheng covered up this subtle emotion well and agreed with him gladly.
It's just that Sir Gao is so busy that he can't see it at sight. He went to the port of Tsing Yi Island for inspection.
Fortunately, it's nothing. The leaders of the four consortia just waited while playing cards under the considerate hospitality of the housekeeper of Gaofu.
When Gao Xian returned to his house in the dark, a secret discussion began.
Gao Xian is not surprised by the performance of the four consortia alliance. If they can really succeed, in the "old script", land is already a delicious meal for Xiangjiang Chinese capital!
Since the land can't be settled, how can we deal with the more powerful Jardine?
In other words, it's good for four consortia to be the vanguard of Sir Gao.
