Chapter 169

Upon learning that Shen Bi of HSBC and heiyun baozixuan, two big men of Xiangjiang, were going to hold a press conference at the Peninsula Hotel, Michael Kadoorie immediately arranged for someone to tidy up the banquet hall. He was surprised to negotiate here, but now he has to hold a press conference here. Hearing the news, he was in a state of excitement. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If it is done well and beautifully at this time. Well, it will be of great benefit to improve the popularity of the hotel. In the future, it can even be written in the history book of jinxiangjiang.

HSBC and heiyun group held a press conference at Peninsula Hotel at 2 p.m. this afternoon, which spread all over Xiangjiang through the two companies. All the media in the world with offices in Xiangjiang are driving towards the peninsula hotel.

At the headquarters of Xingdao daily, I learned that HSBC and heiyun held a press conference together. Hu Xian had a bad feeling. After all the media stopped reporting, Xingdao daily still focused on this matter in order to increase sales overseas. She felt that the press conference was by no means so simple.

It's probably aimed at Xingdao daily, but if so. So it's definitely a good thing for the newspaper. If you fry enough gimmicks, you can increase sales.

This time, Hu Xian decided to personally lead the team to the peninsula hotel. He would meet the leaders of the two largest enterprises in Xiangjiang for a while. Let them know the power of the media. Many things can not be solved with money.

All the media in Xiangjiang are coming to the Peninsula Hotel, and baozixuan and Shen Bi are making final preparations together. There are three things to announce this time.

The first is about accidental injuries and gossip; The second is about the joint crackdown on Xingdao daily; The third is about black cloud's acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa.

There are only two people on the built podium. Baozixuan and Shen Bi want to use this press conference to express their strong pressure on Xingdao daily. Let other people who hide evil intentions have a good look at the attitude of HSBC and heiyun towards gossip media, so that they should understand the situation and don't panic about these useless things.

Michael Kadoorie is now the on-site commander in chief. He must run the press conference well. To enhance the reputation of the Peninsula Hotel, because he knows what this press conference means.

2 p.m. in the banquet hall of peninsula hotel. At this time, the banquet hall is full of reporters. They are the elites of various newspapers. Hu Xian is also in the center of the reporter at the moment. She wants to face the two bosses of Xiangjiang as a little woman. Let others see that women not only hold up half the sky, but also are no worse than men.

The press conference did not specially invite the host, but was temporarily held by Pu Weishi. There are only two big men on the stage, baozixuan and Shen Bi.

Pu Weishi said: "thank you, media friends, for coming to the joint press conference of HSBC and black cloud group. This conference has three contents."

"It would have been a very small matter that Mr. Bao Zixuan of heiyun group was injured at the recent banquet of HSBC. But now it has been infinitely magnified by a lot of multimedia, resulting in serious damage to the reputation of HSBC and heiyun group. Now let's ask Mr. Bao Zixuan to explain. "

Bao Zixuan: "I've said everything these days, but this time it's really a misunderstanding. After that, I sent someone to find out. The club leader named bucktooth Zhang is carrying a portable knife, which is difficult to find if he doesn't know in advance. HSBC has compensated my medical expenses for the accidental injury incident, and I am not a haggard. This matter is over. I hope you won't mention it again. "

"As for my affair with Miss Chen Yulian, I hope all media friends will exercise restraint. I'm a man. It doesn't matter. However, we should protect the famous girls' festivals. I hope you will stop hyping them. Miss Chen and I met for the first time that day. We haven't been in touch these days. "

Shen Bi continued: "HSBC will never have similar incidents in its future operations. Our security costs will be greatly increased this year. I hope that depositors can rest assured that HSBC will ensure the safety of deposits in your account. "

Pu Weishi: "the second topic is about some media making things out of nothing, discrediting HSBC and the black cloud group, and even making personal attacks on Mr. Bao Zixuan. In this regard, HSBC and black cloud have the same purpose. We are determined to suppress bad media. The news should have authenticity and not confuse right and wrong, which we can't stand. "

After Pu Weishi made an invitation gesture, Shen Bi said to the microphone: "in view of the deliberate hype of Xingdao daily about HSBC and heiyun, our two families now issue the following joint statement."

"First: from now on, HSBC has decided not to order Xingdao daily, and it is suggested that HSBC partners do not order Xingdao daily either. If we continue to order, we will downgrade the customer's credit rating. "

"Second: from now on, HSBC will not publish any advertisements in Xingdao daily. At the same time, it is suggested that HSBC partners will not publish advertisements in Xingdao daily. If they continue to publish advertisements, HSBC will lower the customer's credit rating."

"Third: from now on, HSBC will not provide loans to all employees of Xingdao daily, that is, as long as all employees of Xingdao daily have no credit line in HSBC. At the same time, those with loans will be recovered immediately, including housing loans. "

"Fourth: we talk about investigating the legal responsibility of Xingdao daily according to law, and zero tolerance for unscrupulous media that spread rumors and cause trouble."

After Shen Bi finished, baozixuan continued: "heiyun fully agrees with HSBC's point of view. Heiyun group will also suggest that partners do not cooperate with Xingdao daily. Only one of heiyun and Xingdao daily can be selected. Please understand the inconvenience of taking photos for customers. "

After that, the reporters burst into a pot, and Hu Xian's face was even more livid. This is the first time that an enterprise is so tough on the media. This is to break its own way, and then it will never die. After the statements of the two largest companies in Xiangjiang, who dares to cooperate with Xingdao daily now. Many people dare not even subscribe. Heiyun may not meet them, but HSBC is the quasi Central Bank of Xiangjiang. Enterprises with a little strength do business with them.

Pu Weishi: "the next step is about the equity transfer reached between HSBC and heiyun group about Hutchison Whampoa. Mr. Bao Zixuan of heiyun group will announce it for you. "

At this time, the pot exploded underground. Why did he suddenly talk about Hutchison Whampoa company! Is the conversation changing too fast? Many people didn't adapt for a while.

However, baozixuan ignored so much and has now completed the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa. No one can change the outcome of what has become a fact, that is, the governor should abide by the law.

Baozixuan said to everyone in the banquet hall of Peninsula Hotel: "after friendly negotiation with HSBC, heiyun group purchased 136 million shares of Hutchison Whampoa company held by HSBC at HK $7 per share, accounting for 33.4% of the whole Hutchison Whampoa company."

"In addition, heiyun group has also acquired 15.6% of the shares of Hutchison Whampoa company in the market. Now heiyun group occupies 49% of the shares of the whole Hutchison Whampoa company, and has completed the holding of Hutchison Whampoa company in accordance with the provisions of the Xiangjiang listed company law."

"I can responsibly tell you that Hutchison Whampoa, one of the four major foreign firms in Xiangjiang, has now been controlled by heiyun group. In the future, we will contact the existing management team and reorganize the board of directors. "

"At the same time, heiyun group will also increase capital investment in Hutchison Whampoa, and the two enterprises will complete a good strategic complementarity in the future. I am very optimistic about Hutchison Whampoa. I think it is a seriously undervalued company. Now it just doesn't play its due strength. I believe that Hutchison Whampoa will soon be full of new vitality and vitality with the assistance of heiyun group. "
