Ma Wensheng then took office and became the general manager of Donglong Steel.

At the same time, Luo Kangrui contacted John Maden and Li Jinliang, hoping to buy the Huidefeng stocks they held as soon as possible.

John Maden and Lee Jinliang both have a positive attitude towards the sale of Huidefeng's stock.

John Maden was in a quagmire because Huidefeng's business was ineffective and the reform was not effective. In addition, Hong Kong will eventually return in the future, and he was worried that his property would be lost, so he wanted to withdraw as soon as possible and cash out and return to England for retirement.

The reason why Li Jinliang is willing to sell Huidefeng shares is mainly because it has something to do with his family.

According to a survey conducted by Luo Kangrui, the Li family is a very traditional family. The family has dozens of people living in the same big house, working together and getting rich together, and the property belongs to every family nominally.

The Li family first started doing local miscellaneous products business, and set up stalls to sell bamboo baskets, bamboo baskets, bamboo grates, etc. due to thrift and thrift, the stall became a store within two years and accumulated a net worth of thousands of silver dollars.

After World War II, the Li family moved from eastern Guangdong to Xiangjiang and continued to open local miscellaneous goods stores. However, it has changed from a simple family workshop to a self-production and self-sales model to import and export trade, which has brought the business to a great level.

Later, the Li family got involved in the Western medicine business. At first, they only sold some anti-worm medicines, mosquito repellent water, red medicines, etc., but later, because they obtained the agency rights of the anti-inflammatory drug penicillin, the Li family's business made a big leap.

Because it happened to be in World War II and the Korean War, the demand for penicillin increased greatly, and the Li family made a fortune and quickly accumulated a net worth of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars.

Afterwards, in addition to opening an import and export trading company and Jishentang chain pharmacy, the Li family also entered the real estate industry and retail industry. After decades of development, the Li family's property has been saved more and more.

However, the Li family pursued the purpose of making a fortune in silence. Although they were already rich enough to rival the country, they kept a low profile. No one knew that the Li family in Jishentang was so rich.

Even though he is so rich, the Li family still lives in the same house, and dozens of people live together, just like the Jia family in "Dream of Red Mansions".

However, the Li family is more retro than the Jia family. They not only live together, but also eat the same meal, wear the same clothes, and receive the same monthly money. Just like the primitive society.

The reason why this lifestyle can last for decades is mainly because of the high prestige of the Li family's grandmother. Just like Jia Mu in the Jia family, the Li family's grandmother is respectable, shrewd and sophisticated, and manages the entire family in a row. With her constraints, her sons, daughters-in-law, grandson, granddaughter, etc. are all obedient and no one dares to resist.

However, in 1979, after the death of this grandmother, without restraint, some people's selfishness began to expand rapidly. This person was Li Jinliang.

The second generation of the Li family is four sons, the eldest son died earlier than his mother in the early 1970s. The second son was mediocre and was not good at management, so he only served as middle-level manager in the company. The third son had the style of a famous scholar, liked literary and antiques, and was not interested in doing business, so the power of the Li family fell into Li Jinliang.

The wine is so beautiful that he is famous, and his wealth is moving. Without the constraints of his mother, Li Jinliang's greed rapidly expands. Over the years, he has been setting up companies outside and transforming his family's assets into his own property.

The more you do this, the more you should be low-key, the less attention it is. Therefore, although the Li family already holds 34% of Huidefeng's shares, Li Jinliang did not compete for Huidefeng's senior team. Moreover, when facing the acquisition of Huidefeng, Li Jinliang did not stop him, but was willing to sell his own stock.

This just explains Ye Jin's question. Li Jinliang has tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars in family assets to be transferred, so he naturally looks down on Hui Defeng's scum.

...

John Maden and Lee Jinliang are willing to sell Huidefeng, so the acquisition is much easier.

However, because Hui Defeng's meat is too fat, there are too many people who want to get involved. In addition to Ye Jin and Bao Jinshui, there are also Southeast Asian wealthy Qiu Zhendong, Taigu, one of the four major overseas shops, etc., so it can be said that the wind is moving from all directions and the heroes gather together.

Faced with tangible interests, all families are striving to give up, and they don’t care about their friendship.

Although John Maden and Li Jinliang were interested in selling Huidefeng, in the face of such fierce competition, neither of them was in a hurry to sell their stocks, but instead watched the tiger fight and waited for the price.

In terms of assets, no matter the ship king Bao Jinshui, foreign company Swire Group, or the wealthy Qiu Zhendong, they cannot be compared with Ye Jin. After all, it is not considered external financing, he himself has a net worth of tens of billions of dollars alone.

This is a huge sum of money. You should know that in 1982, California Standard Oil Company, which ranked tenth in the market value of Asiatica, had a market value of only 10 billion US dollars.

Ye Jin has a market value of equal to its equivalent, which is equivalent to that of ExxonMobil Oil Company, which has the tenth largest market value in Asia, in 2020, with an average of $188.5 billion.

With so much money, he naturally has the ease of bidding.

Therefore, no matter how Bao Jinshui, Qiu Zhendong, and Swire Group bid, Ye Jin can always suppress them and firmly gain an advantage.

"Mr. Ye, the price per share has now risen to 5 yuan and 4 cents, with a premium of 20%. Should we continue?" Luo Kangrui called Ye Jinhui to report.

"Lao Luo. I am determined to win this time. Not to mention the premium of 20%, even if the premium of 50%, this business will be done." Ye Jin smiled.

Now the Xiangjiang economy is in a sharp recession, and both stock markets, real estate, shipping, retail, etc. have suffered heavy losses, which has caused Huidefeng's stock price to fall to the bottom.

But in fact, Huidefeng's assets are very valuable. Not to mention anything else, but its properties will be sold at sky-high prices when the real estate industry recovers in a few years.

So don’t say that the premium is 20%, even if it is 50%, you will still make money by then. So he is not afraid of the high price.

"Okay, with your words, I will feel at ease." Luo Kangrui immediately said happily when he heard this.

If the premium of 50% is OK, then his pressure will be much less.

...

Just when Ye Jin, Bao Jinshui, Qiu Zhendong, and Swire Foreign Company rushed to buy Defeng, and they were in dire straits and could not get along. On the other hand, Li Chaoren quietly bought the Hong Kong lamp from Land for HK$2.9 billion.

Half of the funds were obtained by Ye Jin, and he also obtained 17.6% of the shares of Hong Kong Ding, becoming the major shareholder on par with Li Chaoren.

Once the news of Li Chaoren's successful acquisition of Hong Kong Dings came out, it immediately caused a sensation in Xiangjiang.
