Chapter 232: 9 Dragon Warehouse Major Shareholder! You, Li Chaoren, are out
"You are smart to think of transferring the shares of Wharf Holdings to Sir Bao, but you are not Sir Bao."
"Let's not talk about whether Sir Bao can really take over the Wharf. Even if Sir Bao can really take it, what does it have to do with you, Mr. Chen?"
"The reason is simple. You are you, and Lord Bao is Lord Bao. I think you should be clear about this."
Li Chaoren looked as if he was sure of victory, and analyzed the current situation with Chen Wen in an orderly manner.
Of course, these situations are just his personal opinions.
Without any benefit, how could Sir Bao win the right to build the Wharf property for New Hung Hing Properties?
You know, even Li Chaoren may not be able to invite Sir Bao to come out of retirement.
But Sir Bao was willing to reduce the boat's landing for a gangster, which was enough to show Sir Bao's appreciation for Chen Wen.
Even so, according to the agreement between Chen Wen and Li Chaoren.
Only if Chen Wen takes over Hutchison Whampoa can he truly take over.
Therefore, even if all the shares fell into the hands of Sir Bao in the end and Sir Bao successfully took over Hutchison Whampoa, it would have nothing to do with Chen Wen.
It was for this reason that Li Chaoren ran to Chen Wen to stop it before anything happened.
However, what Chen Wen said next really overturned his general understanding of existence.
"Mr. Li has been in the real estate industry for so many years, and his network of contacts is indeed extensive. He can even find out how many shares of Wharf Holdings I have in New Hongxing."
"I was able to figure out that Lord Bao was working with me. That's pretty impressive."
At this point, Li Chaoren's face was full of pride at Chen Wen's praise.
But he never expected that the next second, Chen Wen's tone suddenly changed and he said directly: "I just don't know why Li Chaoren only investigated my New Hongxing and not Shiqi Real Estate?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the entire room froze in an instant.
Before Li Chaoren could speak, his secretary Hong Lian said directly: "The major shareholder of Shiqi Real Estate is Miss Tang Judi, and the largest shareholder is Miss Tang Judi's husband, not Mr. Chen."
There is no doubt that Hong Xiaolian's words did not give Chen Wen any face at all.
That clearly means that Wang Baiwan is the principal wife, and no matter how powerful you, Chen Wen, are, you are just a wild man that Tang Zhudi keeps outside.
However, before Chen Wen could speak, Tang Zhudi couldn't help it.
"I'm sorry, Secretary Pan, I disappoint you."
"Before my husband died, he had already sold all his shares to Mr. Chen. Now, Mr. Chen is the largest shareholder of Shiqi Real Estate Company."
"Everyone on the board of directors of Shiqi Real Estate knows that I am just managing it on behalf of the company."
Tang Judy came out to clarify immediately.
Not to mention Hong Xiaolian and Li Chaoren who were both confused, even Jimmy was shocked.
You know, when Chen Wen and Tang Judi attended a dinner together, they were nicknamed "pretty boys" by outsiders.
So Tang Judy is the pretty boy now?
Wow! Brother Wen is really good at keeping secrets. How come his business is so big?
This is indeed a bit overbearing!
"so what?"
Although this answer was somewhat beyond Li Chaoren's expectations, Li Chaoren still continued to ask Chen Wen in front of him.
There is no doubt that even if he has shares in World Development, this will not affect the future direction of Hutchison Whampoa.
After all, there is an agreement between Chen Wen and Yihe.
"Nothing. I just acquired 10% of Jardine Matheson's shares as the largest shareholder of Shiqi Real Estate Company."
Chen Wen said directly with a calm expression.
But after hearing what Chen Wen said, everyone present was stunned.
You know, it is widely rumored outside that Chen Wen owns 18% of Hutchison Whampoa's shares.
Among them, 10% was purchased from Li Chaoren in a special way.
But this 18% stake alone is enough to shock everyone.
Not to mention others, even Jardine Matheson, which holds 20% of the shares, has already lost its composure. But how could they have imagined that this was just the tip of the iceberg?
Is there another magic finishing move behind?
Li Chaoren and Hong Xiaolian never imagined that in addition to the 18% shares in his hands, Chen Wen actually acquired 10% as the largest shareholder of Shiqi Real Estate Company.
Doesn't that mean that Chen Wen had already taken over Hutchison Whampoa long before the charter king got involved?
You should know that Jardine Matheson only holds 20% of Hutchison Whampoa’s shares, and Chen Wen’s shares together have already reached 28%.
There is no doubt that Chen Wen has become the largest shareholder of Hutchison Whampoa, but even his old employer, Jardine Matheson, has not noticed it.
Not only Li Chaoren and Hong Xiaolian were shocked.
Even Chen Wen's close associates, Jimmy and Tang Judy, were also filled with shock.
Obviously, even these two people were not aware of Chen Wenliu's last trick.
Amid the shocked expressions, Chen Wen continued slowly, "I forgot to remind Mr. Li that Wharf Holdings has been losing money for some time. Jardine Matheson holds less than 20% of the shares, but 17.8%."
"That is to say, when I hold this 18% stake, I have become the largest shareholder of Jardine Matheson."
Without giving Li Chaoren and Hong Xiaolian any chance to refute, Chen Wen continued, "Otherwise, do you think Jardine Matheson will really give up Wharf Holdings willingly?"
Obviously, Chen Wen's business calculations had long exceeded Li Chaoren's expectations.
Even Li Chaoren's intelligence is far less clear than Chen Wen's understanding of the market.
The most important thing is that no matter what, Chen Wen has long been the largest shareholder of Hutchison Whampoa. Therefore, the agreement between Li Chaoren and Chen Wen has ended with Chen Wen's victory.
"Mr. Chen, I have another question for you."
"Since you already knew that you had become the largest shareholder of Wharf Holdings, why did you insist on letting Sir Bao in?"
"You should know what it means for you to give up nearly 10% of the shares and not be able to continue to acquire shares."
There was a hint of doubt in Li Chaoren's eyes as he could not understand the other party.
You know, Chen Wen has now become the largest shareholder of Hutchison Whampoa, and he can successfully join the board of directors of Hutchison Whampoa.
But now, Chen Wen only wants the property business of Hutchison Whampoa, and he wants to sell his shares to Sir Bao?
And according to the agreement between Chen Wen and Yihe.
Chen Wen can no longer continue with the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa.
In other words, if Jardine Matheson expands its market share, Chen Wen will not be able to acquire shares, and the shares he holds will be diluted by the other party.
Therefore, Chen Wen had no choice but to sell all of his shares in Hutchison Whampoa to Sir Bao.
In this case, what is the difference between this and giving the entire Wharf to Sir Bao for nothing?
