Vol 2 Chapter 867: Holding Standard Chartered

Chapter 869

Holding Standard Chartered

Of course, as the richest man in the world, Lin Feng holds a huge amount of cash, and his financial resources are certainly not a problem. But at least the Board of Directors of Standard Chartered Bank still has the strength to fight one, and Pete is afraid that Lin Feng's subsequent move is more than that.

really! Pete's worries became a reality again. Lin Feng took another agreement from Lin Chiling.

"This is the shareholding certificate for 4.99% of the shares in Standard Chartered Bank that I acquired on the market. Now I do not own 38.71% of the shares in Standard Chartered Bank, but 43.7%!" Lin Feng casually threw this shareholding certificate on the table.

Seeing the equity book falling to the table lightly, many British directors felt as if their hearts were hit hard by a hammer, and their entire hearts seemed to be shattered by Lin Feng's equity book.

43.7%! 43.7%! -Pete's face turned pale in an instant. Lin Feng already holds 43.7% of the Standard Chartered Bank. Even if the board members want to fight back, they may not be able to do anything. Although the difference between the two parties is only 5.7% of the shares, this is enough to become a gap. However, for the sake of the tradition of Standard Chartered Bank and for the sake of the British people, what we should fight for is still to fight for. Unless Lin Feng now holds more than 50% of the shares in Standard Chartered Bank, the company's board of directors will not give up any efforts!

Just as Pete secretly vowed to prevent Lin Feng from acquiring Standard Chartered Bank at all costs, a phone rang. After answering the phone, Lin Feng showed the winner's smile. This smile shocked Pete and the others, wondering what Lin Feng did. At this time, Lin Feng threw the last bargaining chip, a bargaining chip that made Pete and all directors of Standard Chartered despair.

"When I came to the meeting, I had entrusted a representative to declare the Hong Kong Securities Regulatory Commission and announced the formal acquisition of Standard Chartered Bank shares. In the Hong Kong stock market that just ended, I have successfully acquired a total of 11.39% of Standard Chartered Bank shares. At present, I own 50.1% of Standard Chartered Bank in total. Shares, formally control the Standard Chartered Bank!" Lin Feng, with the momentum of swallowing mountains and rivers, looked down on the people, and looked at Pete and other directors of Standard Chartered Bank, said powerfully.

what! -Now everyone stood up together.

Lam Fung acquired a 50.1% stake in Standard Chartered Bank and formally controls Standard Chartered Bank! —This news is really shocking, really shocking. Before, when Lin Feng acquired 14.99% of Qiu Deba's shares, everyone only regarded Lin Feng for the convenience of financing in the future. When Bao Peili supported Lin Feng with 14.5% of the shares, everyone believed that Lin Feng could not shake the overall situation. Then when Robert Home's shares came to Lin Feng, everyone was shocked but not afraid, everything was still under control. When Qiu Deba secretly acquired 1.71% of the shares were then transferred to Lin Feng, everyone thought that the winner was not yet known, and they were not afraid of Lin Feng's strong landing. However, when Lin Feng secretly acquired 4.99% afterwards, although everyone was rather frustrated, they were not desperate.

When Lin Feng announced that he had formally acquired a 50.1% stake in Standard Chartered Bank, everyone was completely desperate. 50.1%, Lin Feng has fully controlled Standard Chartered Bank, becoming the well-deserved head of Standard Chartered Bank. As Lin Feng said before, Standard Chartered Bank's surname is Lin.

At this moment, Secretary Pete staggered in from outside.

"President, it's not good, there is news from Hong Kong that Lin Feng has acquired 11.39% of the shares in the Hong Kong stock market!" The secretary said breathlessly.

The news is amazing. He just got the news that Lin Feng’s representative in Hong Kong bought Standard Chartered Bank at a price of 115 Hong Kong dollars per share 15 minutes before the market closed. In just ten minutes, Lin Feng acquired Standard Chartered Bank 8320. Million shares (approximately US$1.183 billion, 6.4% of the shares), after the acquisition of 14.99% of Qiu Deba’s shares, the acquisition of 11.39% of the shares, a total of 26.38% of the shares, became the well-deserved largest shareholder of Standard Chartered Bank.

(People from all walks of life in Hong Kong still don’t know that Lin Feng owns the rights to use Bao Peili and Robert Home’s shares, otherwise I’m afraid I would be even more surprised!)

This incident caused a huge response in Hong Kong. At first, everyone was still speculating about what position Lin Feng would get when he went to London to attend the Board of Directors of Standard Chartered Bank today. However, when the board of directors started, Lin Feng made a big shot in Hong Kong, sweeping 148 million shares. This move puzzled everyone. . I don't know what Lin Feng wants to do! It can only be guessed that Lin Feng's move must have its purpose, and I am afraid that there will be greater actions in the next few days.

While people from all walks of life in Hong Kong were speculating, Peter beat his fist severely on the board of directors of Standard Chartered Bank in London, England.

It's no wonder that Lin Feng wants to convene the board of directors at 8:45 in the morning, which happened to coincide with the closing time of the Hong Kong stock market. I am afraid that when Lin Feng attended this board meeting, Lin Feng’s representative took action in Hong Kong and began to sweep the shares of Standard Chartered Bank. And this happened to be caught off guard by the directors of Standard Chartered Bank. When they were in a meeting, they naturally did not have the ability to sweep the goods, to increase their holdings, and to fight against Lin Feng. At the same time, no one rushed for the goods, and Lin Feng was able to buy shares of Standard Chartered Bank at a relatively cheap price.

Damn it, it's too good! -Pete looked at Lin Feng with a look of indignation, but with a look of admiration. This 23-year-old Chinese is too smart and too cunning. It seems that when Lin Feng acquired 14.99% of the shares in Qiu Deba’s hands, I am afraid that Lin Feng has already planned everything. And the remarks just now that the board of directors deceived people too much may be a cat catching a mouse, playing with everyone, and at the same time procrastinating. Time is up.

Damn, who is bullying whom! -Pete has an angry look on his face. This time, he, and the entire board of directors, was completely played by Lin Feng from start to finish, and Lin Feng played hard.

"Everyone, now I am qualified to reorganize the board of directors!" Lin Feng looked at everyone with a smile.

Everyone look at me, I look at you, speechless for a while. What else can I say now? Lin Feng already holds 50.1% of the shares and has a full control of Standard Chartered Bank. What can everyone say! Whatever you say, does it make sense!

"Mr. Lin, I strongly protest against your shameless, inferior and insidious acquisition. I announce the launch of the company's board of directors from today!" A senior director protested against Lin Feng's acquisition and resigned in anger.

"I also protest!" Another director left.

Before long, many British directors announced their withdrawal from the board of directors and no longer held any directorships. This is also the only way for many British directors to resist Lin Feng. They hope to use this to fight against Lin Feng and force Lin Feng to finally compromise with him. After all, the resignation of so many directors will definitely cause violent fluctuations in the stock price of Standard Chartered Bank. This is definitely not what Lin Feng wants to see.

Unexpectedly, after many directors announced their resignation, they originally hoped that Lin Feng would retain them, so that after some false resignation, after letting Lin Feng make a few oaths, they agreed to stay. In this way, both face and interests can be satisfied. Unexpectedly, Lin Feng was indifferent to everyone's resignation, but looked at everyone with a smile.

"Why, do you still want me to order a car to take you away?" Lin Feng said, looking at the many British directors who were standing in front of the door, waiting for Lin Feng to retain.

The British director was taken aback. They never thought that Lin Feng would not retain them at all, and would not retain them at all. This is incredible. Doesn't Lin Feng care about Standard Chartered Bank's stock price? Don't you care about the future reputation of Standard Chartered Bank? In particular, the resignation of so many directors will surely cause many customers to flee. After all, for a bank, stability is the most fundamental. Now that such a big change has occurred, this is undoubtedly bad news for those who deposit money at Standard Chartered Bank and conduct related financial activities. It will definitely affect their evaluation of Standard Chartered Bank. What's more, many emperors said that they have a little belly in the company. Once they are ruthless, they fight with Lin Feng and break the net, pulling away a large number of middle and low-level talents, which will bring an even more deadly blow to Standard Chartered Bank.

And these are the British directors' reliance, and they are also the biggest bargaining chip for them to dare to push the palace! —But who would have expected that Lin Feng would actually drive them away now. This makes their decaying brains unable to turn around for a while.

"Dong Lin!" Bao Peili couldn't help reminding. Although witnessing these directors who forced her father to sign an unequal treaty, they were driven out of Standard Chartered Bank like a bereaved dog, Bao Peili felt very happy. But if these people really leave, it will be a big blow to Standard Chartered Bank. Bao Peili didn't want to see this situation, and didn't want to owe Lin Feng such a big favor.

Lin Feng shook his head, indifferently.

"Everyone, I am going to convene the board of directors. If you still don't leave, I'm going to call a security guard!" Not only did Lin Feng not stay, but intensified.

"Lin, let's take a look. You will regret it!" Many directors are people with identities, status, and faces. If Lin Feng called the security guard to blast them out, it would be too shameful. After a burst of outrage to a few points, many British directors left indignantly.

The employees of Standard Chartered Bank watched the many directors leave angrily. They were also shocked, not knowing what happened. But all this must be related to the Chinese who followed, the world's richest man-Lin Feng.

At this time, there are five people left on the board of directors.

Lin Feng, Lin Chiling, Bao Peili, Pete and Pete's secretary.

"Mr. Pete, what about you, what do you intend to do now? I am personally very sure of your work ability and attitude. If you are willing to continue to work for Standard Chartered Bank, I will continue to appoint you as the Chief Executive Officer of Standard Chartered Bank." Lin Feng smiled and looked at Pete.

Lin Feng still admired this Pete very much. Pete has contributed to making Standard Chartered Bank's business in Southeast Asia flourish and becoming the largest international bank in Southeast Asia. Inside the Standard Chartered Bank, the only thing Lin Feng can value is the Pete in front of him. He is also the only talent Lin Feng wants to retain.

Pete groaned and tangled in his heart, not knowing what to do.

"Mr. Lin, this time things are really unexpected. So, can you give me a few days to think about it?" Pete hesitated for a moment, and decided not to reply to Lin Feng for the time being. After all, Pete has also worked at Standard Chartered Bank for nearly 20 years. He started as a small employee and is full of affection for Standard Chartered Bank. Suddenly he said that he was leaving Standard Chartered Bank, and Pete couldn't bear it. But suddenly he changed his boss and was still a Chinese, and Pete was a bit uncomfortable.

"Well, Mr. Pete, I will wait for your reply. The position of CEO will always be reserved for you." Lin Feng smiled and sent Pete and his secretary away.

"By the way, Mr. Lin!" Before Peter left, he thought and thought, and couldn't help but look back.

"Mr. Lin, the group of directors will not give up like this. If you don't want to fix it, you'd better prepare early. They won't just watch you enter Standard Chartered Bank. They will do a lot of action." Pete reminded Say. Pete couldn't understand the personalities of this group of directors. They are the kind of people who absolutely must report. Lin Feng "airborne" the board of directors this time, controlling Standard Chartered Bank, and driving these directors out. These people will never give up. They would rather die and break the net than make Lin Feng feel better.

Pete could imagine what they would do. Out of love for Standard Chartered Bank, Pete had to remind Lin Feng. He absolutely does not want Standard Chartered Bank to be ruined by these directors in this incident.

Lin Feng nodded and patted Pete on the shoulder, suggesting that he should be relieved. When I acquired Standard Chartered Bank this time, I was ready for everything. If I dare to chase away these disgusting British directors, I am not afraid of them making things worse.

After bidding farewell to Pete, Lin Feng comfortably took the position of chairman.

"Boss, congratulations on becoming the first Chinese to own a private bank." Lin Chiling very well-behaved handed Lin Feng champagne.

Looking at the champagne in his hand, Lin Feng smiled contentedly. Yes, I can actually own a private bank, and it is a private bank with a history of more than 150 years, and a private bank with the right to release Hong Kong dollars, it seems like a dream. Now, it can be said that he truly has the capital to challenge giant crocodiles from all walks of life. Without a bank, Lin Feng's wealth is like duckweed in the water, without much risk resistance. Now, after owning Standard Chartered Bank, everything is different. Lin Feng can borrow tens of billions through Standard Chartered Bank. Even hundreds of billions of dollars in funds to face any foreign enemy invasion. The group under its own will no longer be afraid of any individual or company acquisition.

Of course, facing those families or consortia with glorious history, such as Rockefeller, Morgan, Mitsui and other consortia and families, Lin Feng is still so small, but Lin Feng has finally embarked on the journey of slowly catching up with these super consortia.
