v3 Chapter 802： Layout for counterattack

After Xia Yu proposed countermeasures, Duke Carter Howard paid more attention to Xia Yu's judgment in his mind.

Since Xia Yu wanted to retaliate against the Rohill family, he was not sure that he would never advise him to do so.

Otherwise, if the Latin American sovereign debt crisis does not occur, if Lloyds Bank transfers its loan business to Barclays Bank, it will be an enemy.

"It seems that I have to investigate carefully, and some of the time will be busy..."

Duke Carter Howard thought to himself.

Seeing that Duke Carter Howard listened, Xia Yu stopped talking too much and changed the subject.

For example-Xiangjiang Daoheng Bank in the hands of Lloyds Bank.

"Sir Carter, I have something to ask you for help."

Duke Carter Howard raised his brows and asked: "What do you need me to do, if I can help you, I will be happy."

Xia Yu said with a smile: "It's not a troublesome thing. I don't know if you know that Lloyds Bank holds 61.5% of the shares in Xiangjiang Daoheng Bank. I want these shares."

Xia Yu had known this information a long time ago, but at that time because he was not familiar with Lloyds Bank and had not yet established a relationship with Duke Carter Howard, Xia Yu did not mention it.

But this was only stimulated by the Lauhill family, and Xia Yu took this opportunity to plan to acquire Daoheng Bank, so as not to ignore it later.

The Rothschild family has now coveted him, and now they have seized the opportunity to enter the Royal Bank of Scotland and Standard Chartered Bank in his financial system.

According to the original plan, after the acquisition of these two banks, it was to merge with Jiuding Bank, Chiba Bank, etc. to form an international large bank group.

But now that the Roshir family has come in, Xia Yu's plan can only be forced to stop.

If the Rothschild family knew about Xia Yu's original plan, they might continue to encourage Xia Yu to do this, so as to penetrate Xia Yu's entire bank foundation.

Of course someone has to ask, what does this have to do with Xia Yu's acquisition of Daoheng Bank?

The relationship is naturally there.

Now Xia Yu has been targeted by the Rohill family. Of course, other large European consortia will also notice Xia Yu because of this, not to mention the big consortium in the United States.

It can be said that Xia Yu suddenly entered the sight of the top figure in control of the world.

However, Xia Yu is only a yellow race. In today's white supremacy world, it is easy to be targeted by large European and American consortia and families.

Just with one or two medium-sized consortiums or families alone, Xia Yu is not afraid of being a joint hunting target for others.

Therefore, Xia Yu's sense of crisis greatly increased.

And the best way is to make one's own lair into a general iron, so as not to be "raided Pearl Harbor."

Finance is the most important part of Tietong's building. Xia Yu wants to build Xiangjiang into his own financial kingdom.

Nowadays, there are actually three hills in the field of HeungKong Bank, namely HSBC Bank, Standard Chartered Bank and Jiuding Bank. As for HeungKong Bank of China, its strong presence at this time is because of its aura, not strength, and there are no other banks under its umbrella. , So it can’t be counted as a series, one level lower.

Among the three hills, the HSBC Bank is the highest, controlling or taking stakes in six banks, of which the number one horse is Hang Seng Bank.

The second is Standard Chartered Bank, with five banks taking their lead and their strengths are also very strong.

Finally, it was Xia Yu’s Jiuding Bank, which had previously acquired two Xiangjiang Banks. Although there were few banks under his command, Xia Yu’s Jiuding Consortium was horrified and forced the Jiuding Bank to contribute.

Now that Standard Chartered Bank has been controlled by Xia Yu, if you add Jiuding Bank, in fact, Xiangjiang's financial supreme throne has shifted from Shen Bi to Xia Yu.

If HSBC can be acquired, then Xia Yu's financial kingdom will take shape in an instant, and everyone will have to listen to it. Even if it is the Swire Consortium, Xia Yu can pinch his neck and knead at will.

But the problem is that HSBC cannot buy it, so it just invests in some shares.

In this case, we can only strengthen the strength of Standard Chartered Bank and Jiuding Bank. Of the two, Xia Yu certainly chose his son Jiuding Bank.

The best way to increase strength is to acquire banks to increase financial market share and voice.

Controlled in the hands of Lloyds Bank, Dao Heng Bank, Xiangjiang's mid-sized bank, is an excellent acquisition target.

If Xia Yu doesn't do it, then in two years, Dao Heng Bank will be acquired by the Hong Leong Group of the Kuok family in Malaysia, and will eventually acquire other banks step by step, and become another Guoco Group in the banking system.

Of course, by 2001, Dao Heng Bank, which has a market value of 22 billion Hong Kong dollars, will be acquired by the Singapore Development Bank from the Hong Leong Group for 45 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Rather than keeping it for others, it is better to buy it at a low price early to consolidate its bank foundation and improve the blood supply capacity of the Jiuding Consortium.

Duke Carter Howard thought for a while. It seems that Lloyds Bank really has equity in Daoheng Bank. He doesn't know how much it is. After all, he is only a major shareholder and is not responsible for the operation of Lloyd Bank.

Moreover, over the years, there have been more banks that Lloyd’s Bank has acquired or invested in. He does not remember it.

But since Xia Yu wants it to be a local bank in Hong Kong, the problem is naturally not big.

He nodded slightly and said, "I will check it for you. If it is not difficult, I will buy it for you directly."

Xia Yu smiled and said gratefully: "Then thank you Sir."

Now that the future of Xiangjiang is uncertain, and the British have no bottom, even with the face of Duke Carter Howard, the management of Lloyds Bank must be a good favor.

...

After Xia Yu left, Duke Carter Howard immediately contacted several major shareholders of Lloyd Bank and the bank's management to hold a secret meeting.

After the meeting, Lloyds Bank appeared to be the same as usual, but internally began to rectify, especially the major shareholders secretly used their own resources to collect the situation in Latin America.

As for the equity in Daoheng Bank that Xia Yu wanted, it was not difficult as he expected.

Only four days later, Duke Carter Howard asked Elena to bring the Dao Heng Bank’s equity certificate and the unfinished equity transfer contract for Xia Yu to sign and complete.

What's more to say, Xia Yu directly signed and then credited the 9 million pounds of the affordable price quoted by the Duke of Carter Howard into the account of Howard Investments.

Nine million pounds, according to today's latest exchange rate, is about 92 million Hong Kong dollars, but the purchase of 61.5% of the equity is not too affordable.

According to this price calculation, Dao Heng Bank is only worth 150 million Hong Kong dollars ~ www.novelhall.com ~ will be converted like this, because Dao Heng Bank is not listed.

If two years later, according to the original history, the Hong Leong Group was slaughtered by Lloyds Bank, Dao Heng Bank was sold for 600 million Hong Kong dollars.

After obtaining the equity, Xia Yu's coming to the UK can be said to be done.

As for whether Lloyds Bank would pit Barclays Bank, Xia Yu felt that he would definitely do it. After all, the ancient British aristocratic alliance and the Rohill family were rivals.

Before leaving, Xia Yu went to Huashang Bank, had a secret meeting with Wu Hongyi, and gave him the details, pay attention to the situation of Huashang Bank's shareholders, and don't let Huashang Bank be infiltrated.

Then Xia Yu approached George Berkeley and asked him to send someone to set up a branch in Canada to lay a foundation.

The Rohill family is powerful in Canada. It can be said that Canada is the site and stronghold of the Rohill family, which echoes the domestic branches of the United States.

Xia Yu wants to fight with the Roshir family, so naturally he has to penetrate the enemy and increase his bargaining chips.

It's good to say that it's impossible to operate, but it can also subvert the position of the Rohill family in Canada.

Canada is set up, so Xia Yu will naturally not fall in France, where the Rohill family's most important stronghold is located.

According to his original intention, he wanted to go directly to France by himself.

But now he is absolutely stared at by the Rohill family, and suddenly going to France will definitely arouse the Rohill family's suspicion, for which he had to give up his original plan.

After he left, George Berkeley sent people to France to investigate the situation in all walks of life and collect François Mitterrand's intelligence.

After all the arrangements were made, Xia Yu boarded the plane in Elena's reluctant gaze, not for the United States, but for Xiangjiang.
