I became the richest man in the world after losing my life in a vegetative state.

at this time.

New Year's Eve is getting closer.

When New Year's Eve has not yet arrived.

Yang Ming met Shen Bi at the mid-level villa in Repulse Bay.

The reason why he met Shen Bi.

One of them is the matter about Imperial Group's acquisition of Guofeng Airlines from Huifeng Bank. Meris has already sent people to talk to Shen Bi about these matters.

There is nothing wrong with Shen Yi.

Another problem is that Shen Bi also faces a problem.

He just turned 60 this year.

Historically, he officially retired in 1986 and left Huifeng Bank.

And taking his place was Guard Pu.

Pu graduated from Kelso Secondary School in 1948 and joined the Royal Bank of Scotland in the same year. In 1951, he served in the military and came to Hong Kong. Soon after arriving in Hong Kong, he participated in the Korean War and returned to Hong Kong immediately after the war.

In 1954, Pu Weishi joined Heung Kong Hui Feng Bank. After that, he worked in branches in country D, Malaysia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Dongyang and country Y.

In 1979, he was promoted to general manager of the international business department, in charge of country Z business, and then became executive director in 1982.

Historically, in 1986, he succeeded the retired Sir Alex Shen and became the chief executive of Huifeng Bank. In 1991, he became the first chairman of Huifeng Holdings Co., Ltd.

Now because of Yang Ming, Shen Bi has not retired and left Huifeng Bank, and he is still the head classmate of Huifeng Bank.

Thanks to the cooperative fund between Huifeng Bank and Imperial Group, Huifeng Bank's profits have been very high in recent years, and shareholder dividends have also been very high. It is precisely because of that that Shen Bi's position as the top class member of Huifeng Bank is very stable.

"Mr. Shen, are you saying that if you want to retire, Guard Pu will take over your position?"

"Yes, Sir Yang."

Shen Bi recognized Pu Weishi's ability.

Moreover, many shareholders also recognize Pu Weishi's ability.

After Shen Bi reaches this age, Huifeng Bank's shareholders have begun to look for other suitable executives to replace Shen Bi.

Yang Ming thought that in history, it was Pu Weishi who moved the headquarters of Huifeng Bank back to London.

In addition, Yang Ming's goal is to swallow up Huifeng Bank.

If Pu Weishi is replaced, then there may be trouble.

It can be said that Shen Bi has made a great contribution to Huifeng Bank since he became the chief executive of Huifeng Bank. In addition to acquiring Ocean Millennium Bank, the 13th largest bank in M ​​country, its branches in Canada have also swallowed up many banks. With fewer local banks, Huifeng Bank has a larger global presence.

That is to say, when the Royal Bank of England was acquired, the acquisition of the Royal Bank of England failed because of Zada ​​Bank's involvement.

Moreover, now that the Imperial Group has swallowed up Standard Bank, it looks even more different than in history.

"Is this Guard Pu easy to talk to?" Yang Ming asked.

"Sir Young, he is only serving European shareholders."

That is to say, this Pu Weishi is difficult to grasp.

What makes Yang Ming most unhappy is that historically it was Mr. Pu Weishi who announced that he would move the registration place of Huifeng Bank back to London, and then move the headquarters directly back to London.

Yang Ming knew that this had a lot to do with the arrival of 97 and the British capital's worries.

However, this actually affects Xiangjiang's financial status and the confidence of many investors in Xiangjiang.

Yang Ming looked at Shen Bi.

"Mr. Shen, if Imperial Group wants to swallow up Huifeng Bank, do you think it is possible?"

Is Imperial Group going to swallow up Huifeng Bank?

Shen Bi was not surprised.

He just said: "Sir Yang, this is difficult. When Huifeng Bank wanted to acquire the Royal Bank of England, it was precisely because of the monopoly issue. In addition, due to the special status of the Royal Bank of England, our acquisition fell short in the end. And now that Imperial Group has swallowed up Standard Bank, it will be even harder to swallow up Huifeng Bank."

Yang Ming seemed to have guessed it.

"Then if Huifeng Bank is divided into the Asia-Pacific region and the European and American region, and our Empire Group acquires the Asia-Pacific region of Huifeng Bank, what do you think?"

Split Huifeng Bank into two parts?

Shen Bi was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't know when Sir Yang came up with such a method.

Now, when he heard Sir Yang say that, it meant that Yang Ming had shown his fangs.

Imperial Group really wants to swallow up Huifeng Bank.

Huifeng Bank is a global multinational bank, but its real market is mainly in Hong Kong and Asia. Although it also acquired banks in country M and other branches around the world, those branches did not bring much profit.

"Sir Yang, I'm afraid this is very difficult." Shen Bi said directly.

"Mr. Shen, this is what I think. Although I have not met Pu Weishi yet, but according to what you said, if this Pu Weishi takes over your position, I am afraid that it will be impossible for Imperial Group and Huifeng Bank to We can no longer cooperate as before. As for the Imperial Group, although it now has banks such as Standard Bank and Overseas Trust Bank, it is still not enough for the Imperial Group. If it can swallow up Huifeng Bank, it will be detrimental to the financial stability of Xiangjiang. , and more important.”

In fact, what Yang Ming meant was that Huifeng Bank could not move its headquarters back to London.

"Sir Yang, what do you want to do?" Shen Bi asked.

"Either swallow up Huifeng Bank completely, or swallow up the Asia-Pacific part of Huifeng Bank. In addition, Mr. Shen, even if you retire by then, I will re-employ you back to the Imperial Group as a cabinet member of the Imperial Group."

Now Shen Bi is just sixty years old, and in Yang Ming's opinion, he can still continue to work.

Directors of Huifeng Bank such as John Bao and Mou Shili were all hired by Yang Ming to return to the Empire Group.

"Sir Yang, I understand what you mean."

Both sides finished talking.

Shen Bi left.

Yang Ming was in his study, thought for a while, and asked Alina to call Meris and Ma Shimin respectively.

Among them, Meris was still in the general manager's office of the Empire State Building.

And Ma Shimin was beating the bank building.

The headquarters of Standard Bank is still in London, but after Empire Group acquired Standard Bank, Ma Shimin brought some of the senior executives to Hong Kong.

And the original headquarters of Xiangjiang Zata Bank was used as the Asian headquarters.

Mailisi and Ma Shimin received calls from Alina respectively. They left their offices and took a car to meet Yang Ming at the Repulse Bay Mid-level Villa.

Less than two hours.

Ma Shimin first drove to the Repulse Bay Mid-level Villa.

Yang Ming was waiting for him in the study.

After Ma Shimin arrived, he already learned that Yang Ming wanted to acquire Huifeng Bank. However, the current situation of Huifeng Bank is a bit complicated. Among them, Shen Bi is facing retirement, and Pu Weishi, who may take over Shen Bi's position, will definitely be very different from Shen Bi.

Ma Shimin did not expect that after swallowing up Standard Bank, his boss would once again set his sights on Huifeng Bank.
