Chapter 139 Winning over Ao Haiwang (He Dingxian) to Become a Shareholder

In the blink of an eye, three days later.

The time came to May 25, 1980.

At this time, he was at the home of King He Dingxian of Aohai.

He Dingxian was originally from Yangcheng, Guangdong Province, Longguo.

The family has been quite powerful since he was a child. In his early years, he ran his own grain and oil store in a town in Shunde County.

But he was born to be a person unwilling to be ordinary. After gaining some strength, he wanted to do something big.

Later, he decided to leave his hometown and rush to a big city to try his luck. He came to the urban area of ​​Guangdong Province and opened an industry that he had never been exposed to (Huilong Bank), and became a quotation mark manager (general manager, shopkeeper).

Under his management, the bank was getting better and better, and it was impressive, but the good times did not last long because some imps committed crimes in the place where he was at that time.

He Dingxian had no choice but to leave with his family and his family.

Until 1938, when he was already 30 years old, which was the most important stage of his life, he took his family to Hong Kong to do business.

But peace could not last for a few years. During this period, although Xiangjiang was managed by the sun, the situation was not much better, and the same little ghosts came to make trouble.

In 1941, he once again took his family and his family to Australia, and this time he finally settled down.

Based on his own banking experience, he served as the manager of Ohai Dafeng Bank, which is also the chairman and general manager of Dafeng Bank.

Later, the highlight of his life began. With his personal skills and excellent social relationships, he gradually became a famous person in the local area.

Later, he served as the duty manager, deputy person in charge, and chief person in charge of a hospital in Aohai.

By 1947, his sixth year in Australia, he was already a well-known figure.

Then he served as the deputy head, vice chairman, chairman and president of the Aohai Chinese General Chamber of Commerce. He was a very powerful person in Aohai.

And his reputation in the local area is not low, because he often uses his own money to help poor people, and many people have benefited from him. Even the Datuk at the time made him a friend.

After 1950, He Dingxian was already 42 years old and considered a middle-aged man. Perhaps he had seen too many things and began to focus more on business and politics.

Gradually, he became an important member of the Parliament of Aohai Nafu, a Chinese representative of law and departments, the head of the Board of Trustees of Aohai University of East Asia, and a national business leader.

He was almost exposed to things in many fields. In that era when everything was dominated by foreign businessmen and foreign ghosts, a Chinese could achieve this. From this, we can see how extensive He Dingxian's personal skills and connections are. .

It was also during this period that he often traveled back and forth between Macao and Hong Kong, in order to attract overseas Chinese capital to help his hometown.

Because his hometown was in great need of various supplies at that time, it was also at this time that he came together with Huo, An, Zhuang, Cao and others to start doing big things.

Let's put it this way, the social status of the Chinese in Xiangjiang belongs to Huo Dongdong, so the status of He Dingxian in Aohai is more powerful than that of Huo Dongdong.

Some people have also said that his words are more effective in Australia than Dato's at that time.

This matter is really no joke. In a certain year, some bad things happened in Aohai, which were even serious enough to threaten Aohai Nafu. It was He Dingxian who came forward to solve this matter.

This shows how high his status is.

"What a rare visitor. I wonder why the recently famous Ms. Meng Lina thought of coming to my place?" He Dingxian asked curiously.

The person who came was none other than Que Qi. She came with Que Ba to complete what Zhuang Rongxu ordered her to do.

Tomorrow this time is the date when Shengshi Group will hold a press conference to publicly announce the recruitment of new shareholders.

Therefore, she needed to come here this time to confirm whether He Dingxian and the Xiangjiang Li family were interested in becoming shareholders of Shengshi Group.

If they are interested, then the form of external IPO is just a show and a formality.

In this era, listing does not require any investment bank to operate it, nor does it need to be contracted by certain securities companies to operate at a low price with a guaranteed minimum price.

In this era, as long as any company goes public, there won't be any major problems. It can almost be ruled out that no one cares about the company's stock after it goes public.

Even if you don't have confidence in your company, if you are willing to spend some money, the exchange will help you solve these minor problems and can trade all the circulating shares of your company's stocks at any time.

"I took the liberty of coming to visit, and I hope He Sheng won't be offended. This time I came here under the entrustment of the boss, and I sincerely invite He Sheng to become one of the shareholders of Shengshi Group." Meng Lina directly stated the purpose of her visit.

As for whether he would get a good price by doing this, Zhuang Rongxu really hadn't considered this. His own connections and reputation alone were enough to be worth any amount of money.

If the money is less, he will earn it back slowly. There is no need to be reluctant on this matter.

"Become a shareholder of Shengshi Group?" After hearing Que Qi's words, He Dingxian, a man who was accustomed to the world, was a little confused and even surprised.

Everyone knows that the predecessor of Shengshi Group is Hutchison & Co., and because Shengshi is about to go public, investment banks and Xiangjiang businessmen want to get involved, so it is considered a popular group.

It's even crazier than when Li Chaoren was listed on the Yangtze River Holdings. So now that He Dingxian heard that the boss of Shengshi Group actually privately invited him to become one of the shareholders, how could he not be surprised?

"Yes, I spoke very directly. I hope He Sheng doesn't mind. Let me tell the truth. I believe He Sheng also knows that our group is not short of money, but only lacks prestigious local people. Therefore, you are one of our key candidates to invite. I hope He Sheng can think about it." Meng Lina still spoke very directly.

"Ms. Meng Lina is really very direct. Her directness even surprised me." He Dingxian responded absently at this time.

It can be seen that he must be weighing this matter in his heart, or thinking about whether there is a problem or something.

All in all, Meng Lina suddenly came up to invite him this time, which really surprised him.

People are like this sometimes. Whether it is giving you money, a more beautiful woman, or anything else, as long as something is delivered to your door suddenly, people will always feel that there is a problem.

This is understandable as it is human nature.

Meng Queqi also saw He Dingxian's concerns, and she spoke again: "He Sheng, please rest assured, my boss is a serious businessman, there is no problem in inviting you, it's just that you meet our requirements."

"Besides, my boss said that, like you, his heart is in the north, his ancestors are in the north, and his roots remain unchanged."

As soon as Que Qi said these words, He Dingxian looked at her excitedly: "It is rumored that the boss behind Shengshi Group is a large foreign-funded family. Why did Ms. Meng Lina say this?"

"That's just a rumor. What I want to convey has already arrived. Please think carefully about it, He Sheng."

"Then I want to meet your boss, is that okay?"

"I'm sorry, because there are some important reasons involved, the boss is currently unable to come forward and reveal his identity, but what I said is absolutely true." Que Qi said these words very sincerely.

He Dingxian, who had read countless people, could naturally tell it, and then he became silent for a while.

"Ms. Meng Lina, at what price and how much equity do you plan to give me?" He Dingxian, who seemed to have figured it out, began to ask.

"20 million shares, accounting for 10% of the equity, the stock price listed on the exchange is 23.65 Hong Kong dollars per share, we will trade with you at this price."

"23.65 Hong Kong dollars, 20 million shares, close to 500 million. I can't come up with so much money at the moment. I need to go to the bank to inquire about a loan before I can reply." He Dingxian responded.

"There is no need to worry about this matter. We have negotiated with Huaqi Bank. People who become our shareholders can get loans from them at any time, but they only need to pledge their stocks in the bank."

"you sure?"

"Of course, we can interview Brett, the general manager of Huaqi Bank, in person about this matter."

"Okay, I agree to you for the time being, but I still need to confirm the situation of your company myself. I will give you a reply tonight." He Dingxian agreed readily.

"Great, He Sheng is a pleasure to work with."

“A pleasure to work with.”

After Que Qi left Aohai, it was in the afternoon before they went to their next stop, the descendants of the Li Shipeng family in Xiangjiang.

Although the Li family is currently divided, the Li family is still a whole. Once something happens, their family will unite.

Meng Lina only needs to talk to Li Fuzhao of the Far East Society about this matter. When the time comes, he will naturally contact other members of the family to discuss it. She does not need to worry about this.

With these two companies taking shares, Mengqiao Qi also believes that Shengshi Group will have more status and prestige in Hong Kong in the future, which is very important.
