Chapter 818: The Final Battle Begins
The newlyweds were supposed to be in great harmony with each other, but Ms. Wang canceled her vacation early and went back to work. A few days after the marriage, she felt like her bones were almost weak.
Qin Hao also boarded a flight to Hong Kong. Hema's IPO has been approved. The next step is to find a securities firm to issue it and complete the listing.
Originally, based on Hema’s scale in Hong Kong, its market value would not be too high. However, on the one hand, Hema’s performance is very outstanding, and on the other hand, the popularity of Hema’s stores in Shenzhen has made the financial market have higher expectations for Hema’s prospects in the mainland, so there is an endless stream of securities firms wanting to act as agents for issuance.
"Brother Sen, long time no see."
Facing Liu Sen who came to pick him up at the airport, Qin Hao gave him a bear hug.
Liu Sen patted Qin Hao on the back and said excitedly, "Ahao, I finally got you here."
In the suite of the Peninsula Hotel, Liu Sen said to Qin Hao with some regret: "I was really busy some time ago and didn't attend your wedding with Miss Wang."
"Brother Sen, why are you being polite to me? It's also my fault that I was busy with the wedding. You've been running around for Hema's IPO. It's me who should be blamed. Besides, Xiao Wang couldn't let go of the jewelry set you gave her." Qin Hao smiled and hit Liu Sen's shoulder.
Liu Sen also smiled when he heard this: "As long as my sister-in-law likes it."
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Qin Hao and Liu Sen started talking about business.
"There are five securities firms that want to take over Hema's IPO business, and two of them have offered the highest bids. One gave a market estimated issue price of 18 yuan, and the other gave 8 yuan."
The issue price of newly listed stocks is determined based on the net asset value per share before listing. Generally speaking, the issue price will be slightly higher than the net asset value per share. The specific price is determined by the underwriting group and the issuer based on market conditions. In simple terms, the stronger the confidence of the securities firm in the company, the higher the issue price will be.
Generally speaking, there are two purposes for a company to go public: one is to establish a brand image, and the other is to raise funds.
In the financial market, the higher the market value of a listed company, the better its brand image and the more funds it can obtain.
This is also the reason why Liu Sen only mentioned the quotations from these two securities firms. Since they are all financing, he must find a team that is more optimistic about his company.
"Then arrange for the two brokerage firms to meet tomorrow and discuss the details."
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right now."
At the same time, on Huanghe Road, at the gate of Zhenyuan, several Audi cars slowly stopped.
A tall man in a neat suit got out of the leading vehicle, followed by a group of equally well-dressed men and women, about a dozen people in total, who followed him into Zhizhen Garden.
Lu Meilin had originally planned to go up and pull them into Jin Meilin for dinner, but when she saw the other party enter Zhizhen Garden without hesitation, she couldn't help but spit on the ground.
"Hmph, if you go to a deserted restaurant like that, be careful of eating cockroaches!"
In the hall of Zhizhen Garden, Li Lichong reached out his hand to Qiang Mujie.
"welcome."
Qiang Mujie looked Li Li up and down before shaking her hand: "You don't look well lately?"
Li Li's face froze, then he shook his head and said, "I did run into some minor trouble."
"It's okay, I'm here to help you solve your problem."
Seeing Qiang Mujie's confident look, Li Li frowned slightly. She knew very well that Qin Hao was very powerful and it was definitely not something that could be easily dealt with. However, as the two sides were about to cooperate, she didn't want to dampen Qiang Mujie's enthusiasm. She could only make a gesture of invitation and invite the group to dine in the private room upstairs.
Arriving at the upstairs box, Qiang Mujie sat down, glanced behind Li Li, frowned and asked, "Where is Mr. A?"
"he"
Just when Li Li was about to find an excuse to get away with it, the door of the box was pushed open and Mr. An walked in wearing a white chef's uniform.
Qiang Mujie saw Mr. An's attire, walked up to him, and said half-jokingly: "Mr. A, there's no need to be so polite. He even cooked for us personally."
“During the time I’ve been in Shanghai, I’ve cooked a lot myself. Today there are so many people here, so I won’t show off my skills. I’ll cook for you some other day.” Mr. An said nonchalantly.
Qiang Mujie looked at the other person with an expression of disbelief. He was completely different from the high-spirited financial genius in his memory. If the other person had not left a deep impression on him, he would even think that the person in front of him was a fake.
Li Li felt inexplicably sad when she saw this scene. She still remembered the scene in Shenzhen when Mr. An and Qiang Mujie were toasting each other and discussing the country's affairs at the table.
At the same time, Li Li became more determined to join forces with Qiang Mujie to force Mr. An to cheer up again.
After Qiang Mujie took Mr. An's hand and sat down, he introduced himself to his team members.
"This is Mr. A whom I have been talking about. He was the founder of the most prestigious private equity fund in Shenzhen."
Faced with Qiang Mujie's flattery, Mr. An couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
"A hero never brags about his past achievements, and what's more, I ended up losing all my wealth."
When Qiang Mujie mentioned this, he gritted his teeth and said, "Humph, if Qin hadn't cut off our financial support, we wouldn't have been able to find the funds to survive that period and wait until the Shenzhen stock market picks up..."
"But we really couldn't find the funds at the time. If it weren't for Boss Qin's help, I'm afraid I would have been sinking to the bottom of the lake to feed the fish now."
Mr. An's words made the atmosphere in the entire box freeze, especially for Qiang Mujie. He often talked with his team members about how they dominated the Shenzhen stock market. Mr. An's words were undoubtedly a slap in his face.
Seeing this, Li Li quickly tried to smooth things over: "Boss Qiang, if you have any plans for coming to Shanghai this time, I will definitely cooperate with you to the fullest."
Qiang Mujie's expression eased a little: "The company sent me to Shanghai to set up a branch in Shanghai. I have already signed a military order. If the Shanghai branch cannot be among the top ten in performance within a year, I will resign."
"We are here to tell the so-called United Fleet that their era is over. They cannot contend with the power of the organization!"
These words made his team members excited. It must be said that Qiang Mujie has made a lot of progress in the past two years.
Mr. An's face turned a little ugly. He certainly knew which joint fleet Qiang Mujie was referring to.
At the beginning, Qin Hao took over Mr. An's team in its entirety, but excluded him alone. This was a great humiliation for him. It was obvious that Qiang Mujie came here not only on official business, but also for personal revenge.
While they were talking, the waiter brought the wine and food.
After a round of drinking, Qiang Mujie said to Li Li in a serious tone, "Did you contact the person you asked me to contact?"
"Qilin Club has long been interested in cooperating, and we can arrange a meeting for you at any time."
"Then tomorrow."
When Mr. An heard about Qilin Club, he looked at Li Li in surprise, but the latter had a calm expression.
After three rounds of wine and five kinds of dishes, some of Qiang Mujie's team members who were not good at drinking were soon drunk. Considering that there was still a lot of work to be done later, Qiang Mujie arranged to send them back to the hotel to rest. He called Li Li aside, and after a whisper, he got in the car and drove away from Nanjing Road, speeding towards Jinxian Road.
After seeing off Qiang Mujie and his party, Mr. An pulled Li Li aside.
"What's going on with the Qilin Society?"
Li Li said calmly, "The Qilin Society has been brooding over what happened last time and has long wanted to get back at them. I was just bringing them together."
"You should know that Qiang Mujie is a lunatic. He will completely infuriate President Qin." Mr. An took a deep breath.
Li Li looked at him with a sharp gaze: "In the beginning, we only lost to the market, not to him. Even Qilin Club and Qiang Mujie want to avenge their previous defeat, so why can't you do it?"
"Things are not as simple as you think. I heard a piece of news the last time I went to Hong Kong. Do you know how Mr. Qin made his fortune?"
“Isn’t it a department store?”
"Where did he get so much money to open a department store? The stock market, he made his first pot of gold in the stock market. In the 1987 Hong Kong stock market crash, he not only escaped unscathed, but also made tens of millions in just a few months. If it were you, could you do it?"
Li Li's pupils trembled when he heard this: "Then why does he want us to do the business for him?"
"I have thought about this problem for a long time. Given the other party's wealth, he should not look down on my money. Unless, from the very beginning, he has been targeting my team!" Mr. An sighed and closed his eyes in pain.
"If that's the case, you should stand up and join forces with Qiang Mujie to seek revenge on him!" Li Li gritted his teeth.
Mr. An smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Recently, a friend in Hong Kong sent me a message that Hema will be listed in Hong Kong."
"You should know what it means to be listed in Hong Kong. No matter how powerful the company behind Qiang Mujie is, its funds are limited. He can't beat Mr. Qin."
"Besides, it was indeed my willful behavior that caused the liquidation. Mr. Qin could have waited until I was cornered and then stepped in to clean up the mess at a lower cost."
A horrible memory flashed through Li Li's mind, but she was still unwilling to give up.
"I have no way out now. If I don't cooperate with Qiang Mujie, I won't be able to pay salaries next month according to Zhizhen Garden's current operating conditions. I can only take a gamble."
"Why is this necessary?"
Mr. An sighed softly, but Li Li turned around resolutely and dialed the number of the Qilin Society witch doctor.
"Okay, tomorrow at 12 noon, we'll be at Zhen Garden."
The next day, near dinner time, Huanghe Road became as lively as usual, but Zhizhen Garden still looked half-dead, with only three or four tables occupied in the hall, which was completely different from the bustling Jin Meilin across the street.
Lu Meilin stood at the door, looking at Li Li, who was standing tall at the door, with disdain.
"I thought you were so noble, but you've fallen to the point of soliciting customers."
However, as a line of four Audi cars slowly stopped at the gate of Zhizhen Garden, Lu Meilin discovered that it was the same group of people from yesterday.
"Where do these people come from? They look very unfamiliar." Lu Meilin said to the manager beside her.
The manager also looked confused: "Yeah, I haven't seen him before, could he be from out of town?"
Just as the two were racking their brains, four more cars stopped at the gate of Zhizhen Garden. When the people got out of the cars, there was a burst of exclamations.
"Why is the witch doctor here too?"
"All the senior members of the Qilin Society have arrived. Zhizhen Garden was able to invite the Qilin Society."
"So what if the Qilin Society was defeated by Boss Qin?"
"Hey, you think Qilin would come to Zhizhen Garden for dinner at this time, isn't it intentionally to go against Mr. Qin?"
"Is there a possibility that Qilin Club doesn't even know about the feud between President Qin and Zhizhen Garden?"
"Impossible. How did Qilin manage to dominate the stock market? News. How could they not know about such a big thing? This must be intentional."
Customers who saw this scene spread the news, and in just one meal time, Huanghe Road was like a boiling pot.
Although the Qilin Society has been silent for a long time since the last time it held a banquet to admit its mistake, it is still a giant in the Shanghai Stock Exchange. Even Abao's joint fleet is still far inferior to the Qilin Society in terms of strength. It is only because Qin Hao supports Abao behind the scenes that the Qilin Society has avoided making enemies with Abao, and the two sides have been coexisting peacefully for so long.
In the largest private room in Zhizhen Garden.
Doctor Wu and Qiang Mujie held each other's hands tightly.
"Boss Qiang is finally here. This time, if we join forces, we will definitely be able to bring down that kid named Qin!"
The corner of Qiang Mujie's mouth twitched. If it wasn't for the purpose of dealing with Qin Hao, he would not bother to cooperate with the old men of Qilin Society.
"Doctor Wu, since we are cooperating, let's not hide anything. How many cards does Qilin have in hand? Let's show them to everyone."
Everyone in the Qilin Society was somewhat dissatisfied with Qiang Mujie's dominance, but they were stopped by a look from Doctor Wu. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, and what's more, Qiang Mujie was backed by a state-owned financial institution. In terms of strength, they were indeed inferior to him.
"Of course, no problem. We own 12 shares of Feilo Electric."
After Dr. Wu finished reporting the data, Qiang Mujie looked at a young man wearing glasses in the team.
"That means that if all the stocks held by Qilin Club were converted into cash, it would only be 1.26 million RMB."
As soon as the words fell, everyone in the Qilin Club felt a little embarrassed. This amount of money was definitely an astronomical figure in the eyes of retail investors, but in front of institutions, it was indeed not enough.
Qiang Mujie didn't waste any time and took out a bank note.
"This 5 million RMB is the first batch of capital injection from the headquarters to the Shanghai branch. Two more tranches of funds will arrive in succession, and the total investment will not be less than million RMB."
"Although it is a collaboration, someone has to step up and take control of the overall situation, otherwise it will be a mess. Qiang is not talented, but I would like to recommend myself. What do you think, Doctor Wu?"
Faced with the strength displayed by Qiang Mujie, no matter how dissatisfied the people of Qilin Society were, they could only hold it back. The financial market is so cruel, whoever has the strength can speak louder.
"Since everyone has no objection, then wish us a happy cooperation?"
"Happy cooperation!"
