Chapter 475 Headquarters
Huifeng is not something you can buy if you want to.
As one of the two note-issuing banks in Hong Kong, Hui Feng Bank is very powerful and has a long history.
It was established as early as the colonial period, after the Second Opium War, and originated from the Magic City, and later retreated to Xiangjiang.
Shen Guanglin had a very bad impression of it, which stemmed from a dirty frame-up incident in which Huifeng played a disgraceful role.
Although Shen Guanglin did not know the ins and outs of the incident, it did not hinder his simple patriotic feelings.
At this stage, although their Great Wall Group is very powerful, after all, it only has so few assets, which is not enough to buy such an old bank.
Now, Hui Feng Bank is the ceiling of Hong Kong's banking industry and the god of Hong Kong people. Almost no one can defeat it.
As everyone knows, this bank's future success will be just like that.
However, She Tunxiang also depends on the occasion. Shen Guanglin said that he wanted to acquire Huifeng, but neither Da Liu nor Lin Anan believed it. They just thought it was a joke on his part.
Shen Guanglin then realized that he really couldn't say such big words now. Compared with Huifeng's market value, their company's current assets were really just a drop in the bucket.
I can only do it on my own and wait for the opportunity.
However, if you can’t buy Hui Fung now, you can always go to Hui Fung headquarters to have a look.
Of course, just treat it as a trip. No one objects to this. Their company is still a VIP customer of Huifeng and has saved a lot of money here.
After all, Hui Fung Bank is a holy land of wealth in the eyes of Hong Kong people. In Hong Kong, many people have made some money, and most of them choose to buy Hui Fung's stock because it can maintain its value.
Therefore, some people call Huifeng's stock a big stupid elephant.
My sister didn't have many ideas about where to go, and then they actually went to see the Huifeng headquarters.
In fact, the headquarters of Hui Feng Bank is just like that. It is not tall or grand, but the location is very good. It is said to be a feng shui treasure. Xiangjiang people believe this most.
Even Li Jiacheng's company headquarters is located here, right next to it.
However, when we actually arrived at the scene, the most eye-catching thing was not the headquarters of Huifeng Bank, nor Cheung Kong Holdings, but another high-rise building far away from Huifeng. Although it is still under construction, it is very stylish and Features.
"Which company's building is this?" Shen Guanglin was very curious.
This building is triangular in shape, and its exterior is made of steel structure. It is sharp and majestic.
"This is the Bank of China Building invested and constructed by Hua Xia Bank in Xiangjiang." Liu answered.
Because Liu is originally engaged in real estate, he is relatively familiar with the famous buildings being built in Xiangjiang.
Shen Guanglin liked to hear what Liu said. All his staff from Hong Kong who did not agree with the mainland would be rejected.
This is Shen Guanglin's bottom line, and no one can break through this bottom line.
After traveling through time, Shen Guanglin is really determined to be a simple patriot. Although he may have many shortcomings, his heart for the motherland will not change.
Shen Guanglin pondered for a moment:
"Bank of China Tower? So awesome! Which architect designed this? How about we also ask him to design the headquarters of the Great Wall Group?"
In this era, the Bank of China is so rich. It is obviously the central bank. If you want to build such a tall building in Hong Kong, you can't do it without some assets.
To Shen Guanglin's question, Liu answered clearly: "Ieoh Ming Pei."
It turned out to be him! Sure enough, his reputation was not in vain.
There is no false person under the great reputation.
Mr. Bei is an internationally renowned architectural designer with numerous achievements.
He once designed a four-star Xiangshan Hotel in Xiangshan Park at the foot of the West Mountain. Mr. Shen spent time in it. It was indeed very expensive, but the scenery was indeed very good.
However, this also strengthened Shen Guanglin's determination to invite Mr. Bei to help him design the Great Wall headquarters.
However, the old gentleman is a Chinese-American, and I.M. Pei Architects is also far away in Citiland. It would take a lot of trouble to go there and talk. Moreover, I haven't decided where to place the headquarters of the Great Wall Group yet.
The capital was not Shen Guanglin's first choice.
Although he teaches here, even though Li Rong's family has good eyesight here.
However, there are too many powerful people in the capital, people are not as good as a thousand days, and flowers are not as good as a thousand days. If the Great Wall Group does not want to rely on other things to survive, it is best to stay away from the political center.
Let’s talk about business first.
Shen Guanglin's current business is not choosing a headquarters or buying a bank, but visiting his little niece.
The niece and daughter are safe, the cousin is worried but confused, and the aunt and uncle are happy but a little disappointed.
No one expected that Shen Guanglin's mood was as complicated as theirs.
When others are in a bad mood, they go shopping. When Shen Guanglin is in a bad mood, he goes to the bank.
The incidental act of buying a bank was quickly completed.
They eventually bought a small bank called Dasheng Bank.
This was Shen Guanglin's idea. He wanted to buy a small bank so that he could make a living, and he could make it bigger and stronger.
Dasheng Bank, this name is also very interesting, because its founder is Li Dasheng.
In fact, this is also a family business. Li Dasheng is over 60 this year and has reached retirement age. It is good to retire with a sum of money.
"Just, why isn't the founder's surname Zhou?" Shen Guanglin was very curious.
In Shen Guanglin's impression, there are countless jewelry companies originating from Xiangjiang with similar names. The name Dasheng is really familiar.
For example: Chow Tai Sang, Saturday Sheng, Chow Sang Sang, Chow Tai Fook, Chow Jin Sang, Saturday Fook, Chow Pak Fook, Chow Fook Sang
Shen Guanglin could see the situation of Dasheng Bank at a glance because it was so poor.
The scale is simply pitiful, with only three counters and no property of its own.
With such a scale, it is simply not as numerous as the Great Wall Group's clothing stores in Xiangjiang.
However, since you choose to acquire it, it naturally has its advantages, that is, the history of this bank is long enough. It was founded in 1964, which is now more than 20 years ago.
Precisely because of its small asset scale, the number of deposits and loans is very small, and its largest business is shipping insurance and offshore settlement. It is easy to turn around if the ship is small.
If you put all your own company's funds and the funds of the holding companies into this company, wouldn't the business come?
The investment company that Liu is responsible for holds so many shares of the company. As shareholders who do nothing, shouldn't we ask the company to deposit the settlement money in our own bank?
Shen Guanglin asked Li Li if she wanted to be a banker. Li Li looked at such a "large-scale" bank and smiled and agreed.
When I was buying a bank, she followed me through the whole process. This bank was so big.
Chapter completed!
