There were not many billion-dollar companies in Hong Kong.
In the Hong Kong stock market, there were about 100 companies of this size. They were considered the mainstay of Hong Kong.
Basically, when the market value reached this level, other than finance, banking, real estate, and a few other special industries.
In their respective industries, companies of this size were all big shots in their respective industries.
A company like Morningstar, which had a market value of over a hundred million, could only struggle in the small pond of electric fans if it wanted to be king.
To acquire a medium-sized company like this, money was not enough. At the very least, you have to have a controlling company, which is the main investor, before you can make a move, right?
Qin An could use Morningstar to control the shares and invest in such a company.
However, he was not prepared to use the name of Morningstar.
There would be more and more similar M As in the future. It was necessary to open an investment company that specialized in M As.
In the next few days.
Qin An immediately asked the financial manager of Morningstar to resign. He brought two other employees and opened a Morningstar Investment Company.
The financial situation of Morningstar was clear, and the sudden resignation of the finance director did not affect it.
After much selection, the new company finally chose to be located in the Warbler Building at the junction of Warbler Street and Queen's Avenue. The headquarters of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank was also located there.
To enter the stock market, one had to go through a security company or a bank.
Tens of millions of shares were deposited in the bank, and Qin An was now one of the big customers of the bank.
Whether it was to play M A, stock trading, or investment, they all needed a trader.
The new company, Morning Star Investment, had Lin Guodong, the former financial director of Morning Star, as the financial manager.
Qin An also recruited Liang Ande, the deputy manager of the investment department of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, as the company's chief trader.
For a long time in the future, before Qin An had his own bank.
The Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank of China would be his sponsor and guarantor.
Other than that, Qin An had also established a security department in the investment company.
He followed the tradition of the rich and powerful in Hong Kong. He was going to select people from the special department of the Xiangjiang police force, mainly retired members of the VIP Protection Team and the Flying Tigers.
These police officers had all received special training and were good at establishing a security line for their targets.
However, Qin An was a little dissatisfied.
There were two reasons.
Firstly, retired police officers in Xiangjiang City were paid too much. The annual salary of the head bodyguard was as high as 300,000 to 400,000 yuan.
The key was that they were arrogant and did not pay much attention to the working environment.
It was actually very relaxing to be a bodyguard for a rich man, and there was not much danger. They were required to do chores on a daily basis, and they were too picky when signing contracts.
Qin An naturally wouldn't indulge them.
In the end, he simply did not want it.
He directly used his old connections in the company to select veterans from the mainland from the security guards of Morningstar.
Morningstar had two factories and one office, with a total of five to six thousand employees. Of course, they needed a certain amount of security.
There were more than 100 security guards in the two large factories and companies who were used to deal with the company's external disputes and guard the house.
Qin An specially selected four people. If the situation was suitable in the future and he needed to expand his bodyguard team, he would go to the mainland to recruit them or through other channels.
One of the four bodyguards was called Yan Jun. He was transferred from the army last year and was brought to Hong Kong by his cousin this year. He had worked in the electric fan factory for more than half a year.
He was very honest and did his best. He was from the Scout Brigade and had mastered the skills of special operations. As long as he did not encounter a gun kidnapping, he had the ability to deal with it.
The cousin who brought him to Hong Kong was called Yan Zhan. He had been Qin An's father, Qin Yang's driver and bodyguard for more than ten years. They had both died in the Pacific Ocean more than a month ago.
Qin An was relieved to have such a person as the head of the bodyguards.
Before they returned, the members of the clubs in Hong Kong were everywhere.
There were also all kinds of powerful people who came from the mainland. As rich people, appropriate security work was a must.
It was the seventh day after his rebirth.
Qin An took a car to the Huo Duo Li Building. It was an old-fashioned building with a history of more than 50 years.
It was 70 meters tall. When it was first built, it was still the number one building in the Far East.
Of course, it looked a little old now, but because the headquarters of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank was here.
Therefore, even if this building was a little old, in the hearts of the people of Hong Kong, it still symbolized wealth.
When Qin An arrived.
The members of his investment company were all gathered in a thousand-foot-wide office.
In terms of area, it was only about 100 square meters.
However, there were only a dozen employees in his investment company, excluding his bodyguards.
This area was enough.
There was a big blackboard erected in the company. The financial manager, Lin Guodong, and the chief trader, Liang Ande, were standing in front of the blackboard and looking at the purchase data.
Behind the two of them was an office desk, and more than a dozen traders were guarding two phones each.
The phone was connected directly to the stock market, where there was a broker from the Treasury Department of the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank.
Orders to buy and sell stocks were issued from here, and the broker was in charge of trading in the market.
Buying stocks in Hong Kong at this time was just so 'inconvenient'.
In the trading hall of each exchange, the trading of stocks was all done manually. There was also a big blackboard in the trading hall.
If an off-market customer wanted to buy a stock, they would contact the broker on the market through the phone. It was commonly known as the red vest. The red vest would write the customer's instructions on the blackboard. This was called 'listing.'
The card indicated the stock code, unit price per share, and purchase quantity. If a seller was willing to sell, the agents of both parties would negotiate and communicate, and then transfer the money through the wire transfer system.
Because the transaction data was written manually, the efficiency was definitely low.
The developed countries in Europe and the United States had gradually popularized electronic trading systems, and all their stock exchanges had installed computer terminal.
All the orders were entered into the computer and listed. However, there was no Internet in this era, and the customers still had to call the broker to order the transaction in the market.
In the next few decades, individual investors would be sitting at home, typing on the keyboard or even swiping on their phones to complete a stock transaction.
However, it was not possible now. Technology had not yet developed, and it was difficult to invest in stocks.
Before Qin An opened an investment company, he had to go to the stock exchange as well.
Now that he had started a company, he was already considered a big family and an organization.
This way, he didn't have to go to the trading center to squeeze with others.
The big clients or institutions traded over the phone, and the dealers provided full service.
Individual investors all ran to the stock market, waiting to be listed, waiting to buy and sell. Because the red vest needed time to complete the transaction, the transaction volume was very low.
The New York stock market had already implemented an electronic system. The daily turnover could reach up to five to six billion USD.
The total daily turnover of the four major exchanges in Xiangjiang City was only 500 - 600 million Hong Kong dollars. This was the difference between electronic operation and manual operation.
During this period of time, Qin An had been using his investment eye skill to trade stocks. He did not waste the opportunity to use it three times a day.
However, the harvest was not as much as the first time.
The reason why he had made such a huge profit was because Li Bancheng had just made a tender offer to acquire the company.
Under normal circumstances, if someone invested more than 50 million yuan in the stock market that day, it would instantly attract the attention of the entire market.
He had no choice.
At this time, the stock market in Hong Kong was so small.
Therefore, his investment company only had about 100 million Hong Kong dollars.
This sum of money was neither too much nor too little.
For ordinary people and companies, it was naturally a sky-high price.
However, for wealthy families and large enterprises, it was just a relatively large cash flow.
However, this money…
It was enough for him to start his first acquisition in his life.
