Chapter 706: The joy of spending money (1)

Throughout April of 1992, Zhou Qingfeng basically stayed at hk. His main job was to work in the town and cut out some hidden dangers. This time grabbing the HSBC Treasury was counted as a hidden task, because of the extraordinary effect, he received a reward of 500,000 points.
At least the cost of buying various'garbage' from the e-commerce plane has been supplemented.
Regarding this shocking case, the Briton's investigation had a change that made Zhou Qingfeng unimaginable at the beginning-he was also worried and prepared to become the focus of the investigation, but in fact it was not.
Sofia sneaked into important institutions such as the Governor’s Office several times and found that all parties involved in the investigation of the case found that there were deep-seated ghosts, even HSBC seniors thought so.
Probably the British guys have become a habit of playing conspiracy and playing, and the first reaction is to find a traitor.
Second, HSBC is saving itself. The foundation of a century-old enterprise is not only the gold and currency in the vault, but also a large number of real estate, shares, registered bonds, and subsidiaries.
Zhou Qingfeng left few clues, and even the t-80u was transported back to Tianyang on the third day after the incident. Even if the Britons gather a large number of industry elites, the case can be solved indefinitely.
Many of the funds in the vault are not from HSBC. There are a variety of real estate agents, associated banks, and insurance companies. Everyone needs capital turnover every day, and it is impossible to drag on forever.
Otherwise, it will really die a lot.
In order to survive, in order to cope with the upcoming run of tide, the truth is not important.
HSBC senior executives soon decided to dump a large amount of non-main business assets under the company's name, while allowing customers to convert large deposits and bonds into company shares.
For example, HSBC acquired 51% of the shares of Hang Seng Bank for HK$51 million in 65 years, and subsequently held more than 60% of the shares. By the 1990s, Hang Seng Bank was also very valuable.
HSBC also has the largest foreign bank in the Arab region, the British Bank of the Middle East. There is India's oldest bank, the Indian Commercial Bank. The wholly-owned wholly-owned Haifeng Bank in the top 20 in the United States.
It also has nearly 15% of the shares of one of the four major settlement banks in the UK, Midland Bank. It originally planned to complete the holding of the latter in June 1992, but now it has no money.
This is just an asset in the financial world. There are countless other assets. In order to survive, these things are sold at low prices.
In mid-April, Zhou Qingfeng received an invitation letter from HSBC. He did not say that the bank is currently experiencing financial difficulties. He only said that a rare asset auction will be held recently. As HSBC's "quality customer", he is welcome to take the time to participate.
The auction is held in Central, but customers do not need to be present, just register in advance and bid anonymously. HSBC keeps secrets for its customers and by the way wishes President Zhou a happy life and career.
Happy, Uncle Zhou is very happy.
HSBC sent the auction list and printed a very beautiful brochure. There are more than twenty books in each category. From antique calligraphy and painting to Western art, from port land to buildings, there are corporate shares and operating entities.
Not only is HSBC selling assets, but also many implicated wealthy people have to sell their properties in exchange for working capital because of the financial crisis.
At this moment, all grudges and grudges must be put aside, and it is serious to get money to save yourself. Will there be any eggs under the nest? No affiliated company wants HSBC to fall.
If it really falls, everyone will be crushed to death, or dragged into the abyss.
Against this background, holding cash is really cool. Zhou Qingfeng stayed in the branch building in Causeway Bay and was interested in reading the auction brochure sent by HSBC.
The starting prices of listed auction items are often only one-third or even one-quarter of the market price. As long as it's not hyped, it's a good deal to buy in.
Zhou Qingfeng has moved a lot from the HSBC Treasury for antique artworks or something. These are small in size, light in weight and high in value. But he had no interest in it.
Those left by their ancestors can find opportunities to donate anonymously to domestic museums; foreign countries, looking for opportunities to sell in the European art black market, can also exchange a lot of money.
In terms of real estate, there are more than a dozen hk tycoons selling buildings, including mid-level villas, high-rise buildings, undeveloped land, and even industries in Southeast Asia.
Some shipping companies sell large tanker cargo ships under their name, overseas ports, and even people with ships to sell together, as long as they can give money to operate directly.
Someone is selling factories, garment factories, plastic factories, electronics factories. Toys, hardware, watches and clocks, big and small, many categories, all-encompassing.
Most of these are labor-intensive enterprises, the technical level is not high, but it can solve a lot of employment.
At present, hk's wage level is high, and the low-end manufacturing industry has little competitiveness. It is being transferred to the Pearl River Delta region, so the selling price is very cheap.
Take a closer look, this is like Pan Jiayuan picking up leaks. Most of them are usually fakes, and today a rare batch of rare assets has come - not so much to attract foreign capital.
Zhou Qingfeng had to put away the joke, and he took it seriously. He found a pen to draw circles on the auction items he was interested in, and he was particularly interested in drawing a few more circles.
Hundreds of circles, hundreds of entries are circled in the booklet.
Including hk's seven or eight commercial buildings, four or five residential plots that have not yet been built, and a shipping company of more than a dozen ships. In Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Malaysia and other ports and plantation manor and mines.
There are also a bunch of small factories that need to be integrated and a small bank with branches in Europe and America.
All industries add up to about US$1.5 billion. It doesn't look cheap, but if you buy it during the normal season, the cost will at least double.
Just don't know how many people will bid at the auction?
Zhou Qingfeng called Sofia and Irene, pointed to the entry in the booklet surrounded by his wreath, and said: "The crisis of others is the time for the expansion of the'Holy Light'.
Now that the group is rich, it is better to spend it if it is not in use. Taking advantage of these guys' self-help, we happened to add some shortcomings to the group. "
HSBC issued this invitation letter, which effectively lifted the freezing of the funds of ‘Holy Light’ and allowed it to use its own financial network for transactions.
This is not a matter of publicity, and is not suitable for public claims. It is indeed an anonymous transaction.
It is a pleasure to buy enemy assets with enemy money. The only trouble is how does ‘Holy Light’ legally take out the funds in his hands?
But this is certainly not an unsolvable problem. If it is a big deal, use the domestic foreign exchange system to pay, and at most use some foreign exchange to purchase in the country.
The exchange rate of the domestic soft sister currency has changed from ‘4’ to ‘5’. In the blink of an eye, it has depreciated by nearly 30% and will soon become ‘8’. If you do not believe that the SAFE is not in a hurry.
Sofia processed the document very quickly. She only needed a light finger to complete ‘’ and ‘transcription’ in an instant.
As the secretary of Zhou Qingfeng, Irene privately contacted many companies in the booklet to find out the auction and the transaction.
The publicity is naturally that ‘Holy Light’, as a company with a semi-official background in the mainland, intends to make large-scale acquisitions at a low price.
"Harmony Weekly" beat the president's ass-"God of Business" expanded against the trend, hk's economic prospects are broad. The article also roughly points out the industries and purchase amounts that Qingfeng is interested in next week.
After Ma Tiewen was published, the phone of ‘Holy Light’ at the Causeway Bay branch was immediately exploded—the uncle who could bring out the real money.
Many companies were not optimistic about the auction and did not intend to sell assets. It can be seen that there is really a gold owner who is willing to come out to'clean up the mess'. Everyone feels that the current'hand held cash' is relatively safe.
Throughout April, Zhou Qingfeng was busy acquiring other companies-too many, really too many. I didn't want it at first, but they fortified me. Also said that this is the responsibility of the rich.
Uncle Zhou is really carrying a heavy burden.
