Chapter 683 (1/2)
With the support of the head of Gao's consortium, Hong Jinbao naturally started his work in full swing.
Gao Xian, who is waiting to enjoy the effect of the film during the summer vacation, is so dedicated to helping BOC fight for scarce land in central. In addition to selling human relations and just governance considerations, he also wants to further contain the British forces that have been entrenched in Xiangjiang for more than 100 years.
Taking Huifeng bank as an example, it is too powerful. It sets up its own ATM network in Xiangjiang and does not allow outsiders to touch its own customer resources, forcing other banks to combine to build another ATM network, and Bank of China, with irreplaceable unique resources, seems to be a core.
When paying tribute to Dong Haoyun, the world ship king who died a few days ago, Gao Xian further introduced the plan to give full play to the unique functions of the film to Huo Yingdong.
Thinking of the previous successful cases of Gao Xian's ingenious use of the potential of the film, Huo Yingdong suddenly worried, ”the noise is too loud, and finally the Bank of China will not be afraid?”
Gao Xian blinked, ”Feng Shui is a mysterious thing. Some people believe it, some don't believe it, and some don't care. Take ten thousand steps back. Under the condition of all following the idea of letter, the routines to improve Feng Shui pattern emerge one after another. What's to be afraid of? So many departments of the Hong Kong government have been working in Meili building for many years. BOC is not confident in its status and weight!”
Huo Yingdong thought about it. It's really this truth, and it's estimated that Gao Xian's move is so confident and fearless. He also has the idea of eating this land for himself.
The land of BOC central headquarters building fell behind temporarily, and their attention naturally fell to the Dong family.
Although Huo Yingdong has a bright red label on his body, he has a good relationship with Dong Haoyun in private.
For example, in the late 1960s, with the rise of the container shipping industry, Xiangjiang began to plan to develop a container terminal in Kwai Chung. At that time, Huo Yingdong and Dong Haoyun intended to cooperate. The former was responsible for taking land to build a container terminal, and the latter transformed container ships to dock and transport. Unfortunately, the Hong Kong government suppressed Huo Yingdong and set up a guarantee that at least 200000 container containers would be parked at the terminal every year All kinds of stumbling blocks had to be stopped, and British capital such as Huangpu dock and Swire took over the business.
Today, Huo Yingdong has been removed from the special ”care” list by the Hong Kong government and can show his strength again. However, Dong Haoyun has died, and Huo Yingdong naturally sighs.
As a generation of world ship king, Dong Haoyun's foundation is obviously huge. More than one company contributes to the shipping business alone. In Xiangjiang, it is mainly reflected by the listed company Dongfang overseas.
A few years ago, Dong Haoyun let his eldest son Dong Jianhua take charge of the operation of OOCL. Therefore, although Dong Haoyun died, the inheritance was completed in place.
However, in Gao Xian's view, a huge heavy asset enterprise such as OOCL cannot avoid its inherent inertia in its operation. Once it breaks out, it will be terminally ill.
During the conversation with Huo Yingdong, Gao Xian talked about his worries about Dongfang overseas.
”With the help of financing facilities in recent years, OOCL has made great efforts to expand. Just the year before last, it spent HK $2.6 billion to acquire a large British shipping company. The debt level can not be ignored. At present, the global economy is in recession and the prospect of the shipping industry is more and more optimistic. Once this trend continues, OOCL may have an operation crisis.”
Huo Yingdong is not as broad as Gao Xian, so he is not easy to express his opinions. He just asked curiously, ”Sir Gao seems to be the same as Sir Bao in judging the prospect of the shipping industry?”
For intelligence, everyone's sensitivity is different, and their analysis and conclusions are also very different.
In recent years, Bao Yugang has sold supertankers on a large scale, and the gross tonnage of the fleet has continued to decline significantly, which is gradually far from the title of world ship king. This practice is basically not understood by the outside world.
