Chapter 563 (2/2)
After more than 100 years of development, HSBC has nearly 100 shareholders qualified to participate in the board of directors. Shen Bi knows whether he can keep the position of the senior class depends on the attitude of the shareholders. At this time, he has no confidence in his heart.
Sitting in the chair, Shen Bi said, ”you should already know that the Hong Kong government has issued a notice of closure and rectification to HSBC. In addition, Pu Weishi, general manager of the bank, and Mo Keyuan, manager of the credit department, are drinking tea at the ICAC at this time.”
”Why does the Hong Kong government do this? Some shareholders already know that we have provided a fund to Morgan bank. In exchange for the controlling stake of ocean Miran bank, that is to say, we already have a bank in the United States, and the channel for development in the United States has been opened. ”
”This is the dream of generations of HSBC. It would have been a great pleasure to realize it in our hands. However, HSBC has also paid the price of declining coinage share, suspension of business for rectification, high-level investigation, and all foreign exchange reserves have to be used to rescue the market. ”
”I dare not admit that the Hong Kong government has a meeting. At the board of directors, I can proudly say that I agree with all these. Pu Weishi and Mo Keyuan are both carrying out my orders. In order to make HSBC lose less, they choose to shoulder the responsibility for me. ”
”Shen Bi is not a timid person, nor is he a person who makes subordinates take the blame. Now that they are both investigated, I feel worse than anyone, but I have no choice for HSBC. ”
”Hua Ying's negotiations on the Xiangjiang issue have not yielded a clear result. We do not know which direction Xiangjiang will develop in the future. If HSBC cannot globalize before then, it will be very passive. ”
”Once HSBC loses some rights, we will have no advantage in Xiangjiang. A bank can't just look at one place, so I hope HSBC can realize globalization and have our branches in any corner of the world. ”
”In order for HSBC to develop in the long term, we must give customers more choices. Customers choose HSBC to handle exchange business in any corner of the world, which is my purpose. ”
”Now the opportunity to achieve this goal is at hand. For HSBC, I choose to cooperate with my competitors. This is really sorry for the people in Xiangjiang, but for HSBC, the development space will be broader and the prospect will be clearer. ”
”Today's board meeting is to hear your opinions; Who thinks Shen Bi has done wrong? I can abdicate and give way to the good. As long as my successor can serve HSBC wholeheartedly, I have no problem. ”
It can be said that Shen Bi's move is very clever. Pu Weishi, the general manager of the future senior class, is locked up in the ICAC. None of the remaining people have the qualifications and prestige to be qualified for the position of senior class. In addition, it is a mess. The shareholders' meeting of HSBC believes that no one can turn the tide except Shen Bi.
Moreover, Shen Bi did this for the sake of HSBC's strategic goal of globalization. At present, it may be greatly affected. In the long run, HSBC will not suffer.
A director who had a very good relationship with Shen Bi said, ”Shen Daban, we trust you. Although HSBC has lost some rights and interests, can these rights and interests be guaranteed in the future! Everyone knows that it will be sooner or later for Xiangjiang to return to HSBC and be deprived of some privileges. At this time, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire banks in the United States. This time, Morgan bank asked us. Morgan has to come forward to acquire marine Miran bank. HSBC will not only cost a huge price, but also whether the U.S. Department of commerce can approve the acquisition is not certain. ”
”You directors, we should look at issues from a development perspective. Only when HSBC realizes globalization will it be in an invincible position.”
At this time, the slightly larger shareholders of HSBC are British. It makes sense to hear someone say so. After all, there is no end to what China will become after taking back the Xiangjiang River. HSBC globalization is something you can see. After all, where is the ocean Miran bank.
Except for the abstention of individual directors, the vast majority of directors cast a vote of confidence in Shen Bi. In other words, Shen Bi still remained in the senior position of HSBC, which made him half relieved. The rest is to deal with the follow-up of Morgan bank's loan. Now it seems that we can only discuss it with several other banks. The most important thing is heiyun bank. We still have to turn to baozixuan for help. Knowing that it will cost a lot this time, Shen Bi has no choice.
