When they learned that HSBC Shen Bi and Heiyun Bao Zixuan were going to hold a press conference at the Peninsula Hotel, Michael Kadoorie immediately arranged for someone to clean up the banquet hall. It was enough to surprise him to negotiate here, but now he has to hold a press conference here. Hearing this news, his whole body has entered a state of excitement. This is a once-in-lifetime opportunity, if it is done well and beautifully at this time. Then it is of great benefit to the hotel's popularity, and it can even be written into the history of Hong Kong in the future.
The news that HSBC and Heiyun Group held a press conference at the Peninsula Hotel at 2 pm today spread throughout Hong Kong through the two companies. All the media from all over the world with offices in Hong Kong are heading towards the Peninsula Hotel.
At the headquarters of Sing Tao Daily, I learned that HSBC United and Heiyun held a press conference together. Hu Xian had a bad premonition. After all the media stopped reporting, Sing Tao Daily was still staring at this matter in order to increase sales overseas. She felt that the press conference was anything but simple.
Most likely it was aimed at Sing Tao Daily, but if that is the case. Then it is definitely a good thing for the newspaper, if the gimmick is fully fired, it can completely increase sales.
This time, Hu Xian decided to personally lead the team to the Peninsula Hotel, where he would meet the heads of the two largest companies in Heung Kong. Let them know the power of the media, many things can not be solved with money.
All the media in Xiangjiang are rushing to the Peninsula Hotel, while Bao Zixuan and Shen Bi are making the final preparations together. This time, there are three things to announce.
The first is about accidental injuries and scandals; the second is about the joint suppression of Sing Tao Daily; the third is about Heiyun's acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa.
There were only two people on the set up podium. Bao Zixuan and Shen Bi wanted to express their strong suppression of Sing Tao Daily with this press conference. Let other people who are harboring evil intentions take a good look at the attitudes of HSBC and Heiyun towards the gossip media, and let them understand the situation clearly and not panic and fix these useless things.
Michael Kadoorie is now the commander-in-chief of the scene, and he must make this press conference well. And to enhance the reputation of the Peninsula Hotel, because he knows what this conference means.
At 2 pm, the Peninsula Hotel Ballroom. At this time, the banquet hall was already full of reporters. They were all elites from various newspapers. Hu Xian was also in the center of reporters at the moment. She wanted to face the two bosses of Xiangjiang as a little girl. Let others see that women not only hold up half the sky, but are often no worse than men.
This press conference did not specifically invite the host, but Pu Wei Shi was temporarily serving as the host. On the stage, there were only two bigwigs, Bao Zixuan and Shen Bi.
Pu Weishi said: "Thank you to all the media friends for coming to the joint press conference of HSBC Bank and Heiyun Group. This conference has three contents."
"As for the injury of Mr. Bao Zixuan of Heiyun Group at the recent HSBC Bank banquet, this was originally a very small matter. But now it has been infinitely magnified by many media, resulting in serious damage to the reputation of HSBC and Heiyun Group. Please Mr. Bao Zixuan explain."
Bao Zixuan: "I have said everything about me these days, but this time it was really a misunderstanding. I also sent someone to find out after the incident. The club leader named Buck Tooth Zhang carried a portable knife, if not Knowing in advance is difficult to find out. Regarding the accidental injury incident, HSBC has already compensated my medical expenses, and I am not someone who cares about it. This matter is over, and I hope everyone will not mention it again. "
"As for the scandal between me and Miss Chen Yulian, I hope all the media friends will exercise restraint. I'm a man, it doesn't matter. But we have to protect the girl's famous festival, and I hope everyone will stop hyping it up. Miss Chen and I were the first one that day. The first time we met, there was no contact at all these days."
Shen Bi went on to say: "HSBC will never have similar incidents in its future operations, and our security expenses will be greatly increased this year. I hope the majority of depositors can rest assured that HSBC will ensure the safety of the deposits in your account."
Pu Weishi: "The second issue is that there are still some media out of nothing, smearing HSBC Bank and Heiyun Group, and even personally attacking Mr. Bao Zixuan. HSBC and Heiyun have the same purpose on this point. We Resolutely suppress bad media. The news must be truthful and don't confuse right and wrong, we can't stand it."
After Pu Weishi made a please gesture, Shen Bi said into the microphone: "In view of Sing Tao Daily's deliberate hype about HSBC and Heiyun, our two companies now issue the following joint statement."
"First: From now on, HSBC has decided not to subscribe to Sing Tao Daily. At the same time, it is recommended that HSBC partners should not subscribe to Sing Tao Daily. If they continue to order, we will lower the customer's credit rating."
"Second: From now on, HSBC will not publish any advertisements on Sing Tao Daily. At the same time, HSBC partners are advised not to advertise on Sing Tao Daily. If they continue to advertise, HSBC will lower the customer's credit rating."
"Third: From now on, HSBC will not provide loans for all employees of Sing Tao Daily, that is to say, as long as all employees of Sing Tao Daily have no credit line with HSBC. At the same time, those who have loans will be recovered immediately, including mortgages in Inside."
"Fourth: We will pursue the legal responsibility of Sing Tao Daily in accordance with the law, and have zero tolerance for unscrupulous media that spread rumors and cause trouble."
After Shen Bi finished speaking, Bao Zixuan continued: "Heiyun completely agrees with HSBC's point of view. Heiyun Group will also suggest that partners not to cooperate with Sing Tao Daily. For Heiyun and Sing Tao Daily, you can only choose one. We apologize for any inconvenience caused to our customers.
After speaking, the reporters all exploded, and Hu Xian's face was ashen. This is the first time that a company has been so tough on the media. Who would dare to cooperate with Sing Tao Daily after the two largest companies in Heung Kong expressed their views. Many people don't even dare to subscribe. Heiyun may not have an intersection with them~www.mtlnovel.com~ However, HSBC is the quasi central bank of Hong Kong, and companies with a little bit of strength do business with them.
Pu Weishi: "The next step is about the equity transfer between HSBC and Heiyun Group on Hutchison Whampoa. It will be announced by Mr. Bao Zixuan from Heiyun Group."
At this time, the ground exploded. Why did you suddenly talk about Hutchison Whampoa again! Isn't this conversational change too fast? Many people didn't get used to it for a while.
However, Bao Zixuan didn't pay much attention to it, and has now completed the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa. No one can change what has been done, not even the Governor obeys the law.
Bao Zixuan said to everyone in the banquet hall of the Peninsula Hotel: "After friendly negotiation with HSBC, Black Cloud Group acquired 136 million shares of Hutchison Whampoa held by HSBC at a price of HK$7 per share, accounting for the entire and 33.4% of Whampoa.
"In addition, Heiyun Group also acquired 15.6% of Hutchison Whampoa's shares in the market. Now Heiyun Group occupies 49% of the entire Hutchison Whampoa company. According to the Hong Kong Listed Company Law, it has completed the holding of Hutchison Whampoa."
"I can tell you responsibly that Hutchison Whampoa, one of the four major foreign firms in Heung Kong, is now controlled by Heiyun Group. In the future, we will contact the existing management team and reorganize the board of directors."
"At the same time, Heiyun Group will also increase capital investment in Hutchison Whampoa. In the future, the two companies will complete a good strategic complementarity. I am very optimistic about Hutchison Whampoa. I think it is a seriously undervalued company. It is just that it has not exerted its due strength. I believe that with the assistance of the Black Cloud Group, Hutchison Whampoa will soon be revived with new vigor and vitality.
