Who was the most powerful in Xiangjiang in the colonial era?
In a few decades, it is estimated that many people will raise their hands wishfully to answer this question, of course, brother pheasant and brother Haonan.
But to their disappointment, if brother pheasant and brother Haonan really dare to hang a gold chain around their neck and carry a big knife on their shoulders, they will wander in the middle of the mountain and regret their mistakes every minute.
One of the world's most influential business magazines, Fortune magazine, which annually selects the world's top 500, gives this answer: the forces that rule the Xiangjiang River are, in order, the Jockey Club, Jardine's, HSBC and the governor of Hong Kong.
In other words, in terms of power, HSBC is not as good as Jardine, and even the Hong Kong government has to rank fourth.
This shows how powerful Jardine is in Xiangjiang!
No wonder, you know, in retrospect, Jardine has surpassed the Hong Kong government and HSBC.
The Opium War that dragged China into the quagmire of semi colonial and semi feudal more than 100 years ago broke out largely because of the encouragement of Jardine Jardine's founder William Jardine in Britain and his support for the British army in terms of intelligence and supplies.
When Britain seized Xiangjiang, Jardine naturally seized huge profits and proudly claimed that it has always represented Xiangjiang in the colonial era.
Jardine did have boasting capital. At that time, its power had expanded to the whole of China. Its business scope expanded from opium to trade, shipping, warehouse and wharf, transportation, finance and insurance, real estate, industry, public utilities and other fields. It became a famous diversified and comprehensive large enterprise group, known as the "king of foreign banks".
In the report, Jardine also bluntly and proudly declared that wherever there are trade activities in China, there are Jardine foreign firms.
It was not until the bottom-up revolution swept across the land of China and the founding of new China that Jardine's disheartened retreat to Xiangjiang.
With its special status and treatment in Xiangjiang, Jardine's scenery is still unlimited. At present, the group controls more than 300 companies all over Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and overseas, and is firmly in the top position of the four oceans. Hutchison, Swire and huidefeng can only catch up with it.
Jardine's light is the flagship company of the group - land, with assets of more than 1.7 billion, known as one of the three major real estate companies in the world.
In contrast, the assets of the milk company are about 500 million.
For Jardine Matheson, land is the relationship between lips and teeth. It is important to the extent that Jardine Matheson is the land purchase class and land purchase class is the Jardine Matheson class.
It can be said that without land, Jardine will have no place in Xiangjiang.
Since the last century, land has been developing real estate in Central Hong Kong Island. Today, almost all good places have been occupied by land.
Just the year before last, in June 1970, the Hong Kong government auctioned the last feng shui treasure land in the central reclamation area on Hong Kong Island, a "land king" land with an area of 53000 square feet, which attracted 18 consortia to participate in the bidding.
The reserve price of this "land king" is HK $53 million. Land bought a firm, accurate and ruthless offer of HK $258 million. It collected this "land king" as it wished, setting a record of the highest land price per foot in Xiangjiang.
Compared with the pride of land, the other consortia who lost were naturally make complaints about the situation. The US capital group would be tucking away, and the auction hammer was really fast.
Land purchase, that is, Jardine, immediately started the construction of the first skyscraper in Xiangjiang and the leisure building, which is also the tallest building in Asia.
It is from this time that Jardine has "no meat to eat" in Central Hong Kong Island.
So, Ren Yi and Henry kaiserk, who was not long after Taiban, began to look for prey around.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Jardine Matheson looked for a milk company, a curse war broke out between Jindong and the milk company.
To be honest, Henry kesek was shocked when he heard the news. Gao Xian's eyes were so poisonous that he thought of it with himself!
However, Henry kesek breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the analysis in the newspaper that the driving force of Jindong's intention to take over the milk company probably came from three aspects.
There is fierce positive competition between Jindong supermarket and Huikang under the milk company.
If Jindong can stay in the milk company, it can not only get out of the endless competition between Jindong supermarket and Huikang, but also monopolize the supermarket field of Xiangjiang retail industry.
After Jindong's Jinniu beverage was introduced to the market, it was a great success; So we made persistent efforts to brew a new development of the traditional beverage Wanglaoji herbal tea.
If the dairy business of the milk company is incorporated into Jindong, Jindong's influence in the beverage field will increase significantly.
In addition, Jindong is competing for the ownership of Zhenbao seafood restaurant, revealing its ambition to enter the catering industry, and the milk company has been working in the catering industry for many years.
If the milk company and Jindong become a family, Jindong will not have to work hard from zero in the catering industry.
Henry kaiserk read all the analysis of Jindong's coveted milk company almost word by word. He was stunned and didn't find a word related to the land.
Therefore, Henry kaiserk certainly felt relaxed, and then had a sense of superiority in IQ. "It was so hot that it turned out to be just the business between the two food enterprises."
In the eyes of Henry kaiserk of Jardine's big class, the fight between the two food companies is, of course, the better. It's best to break your head and lose your vitality. Anyway, even if the food business is broken, the land that nobody pays attention to will not be affected.
Generally speaking, the most normal way to acquire a company is to make money and take the other party's shares.
However, Jardine has consumed a lot of resources on the "land king" of Kangle building, the tallest building in Asia, and the milk company is a large enterprise, which makes Henry kesek, Jardine's boss, feel a little "tight handed".
Moreover, Jardine, with a history of nearly a century and a half, has seen too many bull and bear markets in the stock market, and is unwilling to buy stocks with falsely high prices with real gold and silver in the bull market at this time.
In other words, Although Henry kaiserk had locked the milk company into his prey, he had not come up with a suitable way to seize it for a while.
Fortunately, the struggle between Jindong and the milk company only stayed at the level of eyeless food business, which gave Henry kaiserk a buffer.
So Henry kesek invited newbijian, general manager of Jardine group and chairman of the board of directors of jiulongcang, to discuss the acquisition of the milk company.
Newbijian said: "the dispute between the milk company and Jindong is still in the initial stage when the board of directors has not been held. We have plenty of time."
Henry kaiserk nodded approvingly. "Although Gao Xian launched an attack on the milk company, he just stayed at the level of food business and didn't scare the snake."
