Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 153 Standard Chartered Bank

Bao Zixuan has actually thought about this problem, if most of the payment is settled by HSBC. Then you won't get any benefits, and HSBC believes that everything is as it should be. Now we are taking advantage of the opportunity introduced by the Governor to transfer some business to Standard Chartered Bank, which not only gives the Governor face but also establishes a strategic cooperative relationship with Standard Chartered.

The main reason is to cause conflicts among Standard Chartered, HSBC and the Governor. The British are not monolithic. Each of them represents the interests of their own group. Heiyun can now quickly grow itself in the cracks of these interests, and Bao Zixuan also wants to establish a presence in the banking industry. Putting money in someone else's bank is never a long-term solution.

When Bauhaus-Sanderson left the Governor's Palace, he had not fully realized that all this was not very real. But since Bao Zixuan said he would wait for him at the bank tomorrow, then he would wait for him all day.

Bao Zixuan left the Governor's Mansion after greeting the Governor and people he knew. He was thinking about going to Standard Chartered Bank to open an account for the university tomorrow. He didn't know whether it was right or wrong to do so.

Early the next morning, Bao Zixuan brought the company's financial staff to the headquarters of Standard Chartered Bank. Now that I have agreed, I need to do things beautifully, thinking that many banks will collapse in the real estate crisis in a few years. Standard Chartered will also have problems at the same time. At the same time, Standard Chartered also holds shares in some small banks, which Bao Zixuan wants to get.

Standard Chartered Bank has been in China for more than 11,858 years. Since opening its first branch in Shanghai, China, its business operations in China have never been interrupted. Standard Chartered has a long-term commitment to the Chinese market and insists on "doing well with one heart and one thing always".

In April 2007, Standard Chartered Bank Limited became one of the first batch of locally incorporated banks. This fully demonstrates Standard Chartered's commitment to the Chinese market and its leading position in the banking industry. Standard Chartered China's business outlets have covered nearly 30 coastal and inland cities, and it is one of the banks with the most comprehensive licenses among foreign banks.

Standard Chartered Bank is the first foreign-funded institution to be approved for fund custody qualifications.

Looking at this bank, Bao Zixuan did have an idea. If given the opportunity, he would definitely like to take over Standard Chartered Bank, but it is not very realistic at the moment. Now we can only wait until Huaying negotiates on the Hong Kong issue and the real estate prices in Hong Kong plummet. That will be the best time for Heiyun to enter the banking industry.

Originally, Standard Chartered Bank employees did not have to work today, but it is still holiday time. But Bao Zixuan didn't have much time, and he let the British know that he was a resolute person. At the same time, we must also give HSBC the illusion that it was the Governor who asked Heiyun's business to be tilted towards Standard Chartered Bank. I have no choice but to come here to handle business even though I’m not on holiday!

Huang Zefa, manager of the deposit department, was a little depressed. After receiving a call from the general manager last night, he arranged for the key staff of the department to work overtime overnight. The boss didn't say anything, but after hearing the unquestionable order, he could only follow it.

Bao Zixuan brought Zhao Tingting and Huo Jianning to Standard Chartered Bank today. Zhao Tingting used to supervise the company's financial department. Now that Huo Jianning is about to graduate as chief financial officer, he will definitely take over these tasks gradually.

Seeing that Zhao Tingting, the vice president of Heiyun Group, could not even invite him, could it be that he was the one the boss asked to wait. No wonder he was so cautious and didn't talk to himself on the phone.

Huang Zefa smiled and said: "Hello, Vice President Zhao, welcome to Standard Chartered Bank. It is my pleasure to serve you."

Zhao Tingting did not expect that Manager Huang would greet her first, in front of her boss! Aren't you feeling uncomfortable? But Bao Zixuan really didn't mind. After all, he didn't spend much time in Xiangjiang a year, so it was normal not to know him.

Zhao Tingting said: "Hello, Manager Huang. I am here with our boss today. This is our Mr. Bao."

Huang Zefa didn't expect that this young man was the boss of Heiyun Group. Now it seems that all the overtime work is worth it.

Huang Zefa smiled and said to Bao Zixuan: "Hello, Mr. Bao! I am Huang Zefa of Standard Chartered Bank. The boss is already waiting for you in the office! I will take you there now!"

Bauhaus-Sanderson was also betting, so he came to the office early this morning. When he saw Manager Huang coming with Bao Zixuan, he was finally relieved.

Bauhaus-Sanderson: “Junior Bao, you’re here so early!”

Bao Zixuan: "Senior, isn't it already here?"

After a brief chat, they quickly got to the point. Bao Zixuan signaled to Huo Jianning that he could start.

Huo Jianning said to everyone: "I am Huo Jianning, CFO of Heiyun Group. I came here today to establish an account for the new university to be supervised by the Hong Kong government at Standard Chartered, and the first batch of 100 million US dollars will be directly transferred from Heiyun Group's account at Standard Chartered. Transfer in, there will be no problem with your bank, right?"

Bao Zixuan rarely uses the money in his Standard Chartered Bank account, so there is still US$230 million in cash in the account.

Huang Zefa: "We are ready. Heiyun Group can withdraw money at any time. And all the staff are here now, and the opening of a university account can be processed immediately. As long as Heiyun Group provides us with the requirements and name."

Huo Jianning: "I have prepared the information." After saying that, he handed the information to Huang Zefa.

After Huang Zefa saw it, he immediately arranged for clerks to start setting up Yulin Institute of Technology accounts. These are very simple things.

Bauhaus-Sanderson: "Standard Chartered Bank will not charge any handling fees in the process of handling the funds in Yulin Institute of Technology's account. Please rest assured that establishing long-term cooperation is the original intention of Standard Chartered."

In fact, Bauhaus-Sanderson knew that the establishment of the university itself was a political achievement project. The most important thing was that all contractors and material dealers still had to deposit their money with Standard Chartered Bank. In any case, Standard Chartered makes a profit. Although the handling fee is quite high, it is nothing worth remembering compared to the future benefits.

Bao Zixuan heard Sanderson's statement, so he had to say a few words anyway. This was a matter of politeness.

Bao Zixuan: "Thank you Mr. Sanderson, we really want a long-term cooperation. Today I brought Mr. Huo and Mr. Zhao here just to hope that the two teams can meet and lay the foundation for our future cooperation."

After all the procedures were completed, the management of Standard Chartered and Heiyun briefly celebrated in the Standard Chartered Banquet Hall, and Bao Zixuan returned to the factory with the two of them.

Yesterday, Puwei saw Bao Zixuan and Bauhaus-Sanderson chatting for a long time after being introduced by the Governor. Today, he learned through the insider of Standard Chartered Bank that Bao Zixuan had opened the university's supervision account with Standard Chartered. And knowing that the first choice of Black Cloud that day was HSBC, which involved US$1 billion in external expenditures, it was a good opportunity to drive huge amounts of money to the bank and increase its influence.

Pu Weishi came to Shen Bi's office and said: "Bao Zixuan went to Standard Chartered Bank and has opened an account for Yulin Institute of Technology with Standard Chartered. The first batch of US$100 million in funding has been received. What does MacLehose mean?"

Shen Bi: "You told me last night that you didn't pay much attention at first. It seems that our little Sanderson is using his grandfather's favor to persuade MacLehose. This is poaching HSBC, and it looks a bit ugly. But it's also It cannot be ruled out that there are other things we don’t know about.”

Pulvais: "What else don't we know? On the day of MacLehose's inspection, Bao Zixuan personally said that the university account would be set up in HSBC and subject to the supervision of the Hong Kong government. Why did MacLehose change his mind after the introduction! Now I am not just Worrying about this matter, if Heiyun hands over some business to Standard Chartered in the future, then we will lose a big customer."

"By cooperating with Heiyun, we can get a large amount of foreign exchange, and now we don't need to go out of our way to exchange for U.S. dollars. Heiyun has a large balance of U.S. dollars every month, and the foreign exchange department has been very profitable in the past few months.

Shen Bi: "It seems that we need to find an opportunity to remind MacLehose that Hong Kong not only has him as the governor of Hong Kong, but also HSBC."
