Chapter 1425 Sir Peter Baring does not want to lose Barings Bank!



The Bahrain family has received five hereditary titles, which is enough to show the glory and prominence of the Bahrain family.

Sir Peter Baring has not returned yet, but when the butler took Huo Jianning to visit the Baring family, he could tell from all aspects of it.

There is a saying in China that wealth cannot last more than three generations.

However, this does not seem to be the case abroad.

There are many families that are more than a hundred years old, hundreds of years old, or even thousands of years old.

The Barings family has been prominent for five generations relying on Barings Bank, which is quite extraordinary.

The housekeeper still doesn't know what Huo Jianning is thinking, but he knows that Huo Jianning is now the deputy general manager of the Imperial Group Cabinet, and his status is also very prominent. He even heard that King Y's royal family has already prepared to award Huo Jianning a knighthood.

"Mr. Huo, this is Sir Francis Baring, and this is Sir Alexander Baring."

In the past, there were no cameras in foreign countries, and their appearance could be preserved through portraits.

Now Huo Jianning saw the oil paintings of members of the Bahrain family, which looked as real as the photos.

In addition, it can be seen that these oil paintings are very well preserved.

Huo Jianning nodded.

Forty minutes later.

Sir Peter Baring, now the chairman of Barings Bank and the heir to the Barings family, hurried back by car when he learned that Huo Jianning had come to the Barings family manor.

When Huo Jianning saw the current Sir Peter Baring for the first time, he stretched out his hand to say hello.

"Mr. Huo, I didn't know you were coming this time?"

"Sir Balin, I have something very important to discuss with you."

"Then let's go to the study and talk."

Sir Peter Baring invited Huo Jianning to his study.

After closing the door, Huo Jianning said in fluent English: "Sir Balin, do you know what my boss's English name is?"

Huo Jianning’s boss?

Isn’t it Sir Yang, the chairman of Imperial Group?

What is Sir Yang's English name?

Sir Balin really doesn't know, because even the royal family calls Yang Ming Sir Yang Ming.

"He has the same name as you."

Same name?

"Also called Peter?"

Sir Peter Baring was surprised. He didn't know whether it was an honor or what he felt.

"Exactly. However, except for his parents, basically no one will call him by his English name."

Now Yang Ming is in Xiangjiang, in country Y, and his status and influence in the country are too high. You can either call him Sir Yang or Mr. Yang.

Even Huo Jianning neither dares nor knows how to call the boss by his English name.

Sir Peter Baring is still thinking about what Huo Jianning said just now.

Huo Jianning said directly: "Sir Bahrain, I am here this time for Bahrain Bank."

For Barings?

Huo Jianning What does this mean?

Could it be that Imperial Group is eyeing Barings Bank?

Sir Peter Baring's expression immediately became a little bad.

Now the Barings family is the only major shareholder of Barings Bank. As long as they are unwilling to sell Barings Bank, no one can acquire this multinational bank.

Huo Jianning still smiled, looking very confident.

Barings Bank is still very valuable today.

However, historically, on February 1995, 2, the Bank of England, the central bank of country Y, announced that Bahrain Bank was no longer allowed to engage in trading activities and would apply for asset liquidation. Ten days later, the 26-year-old bank was acquired by ING for a nominal £10.

This meant the complete collapse of Barings Bank.

However, Helan International Group continued to operate under the name "Barings Bank".

In other words, this bank was acquired by Helan's International Group for a symbolic price of one pound more than a month later. By then, the Bahrain family had completely lost this multinational bank.

At this time, Sir Peter Baring did not know the seriousness of this matter.

"Mr. Huo, our Bahrain Bank will not sell to any consortium."

Sir Peter Baring said.

Huo Jianning still smiled, he came only when he was ready.

He knew people like Sir Balin very well.

Over the years, the Empire Group has acquired countless companies, large and small. The founders of many companies did not think that way, but they eventually sold the companies.

"Sir Balin, please take a look at these information first."

When Huo Jianning brought over the English version of the information prepared in advance, it was very detailed, and it was all about the situation of Barings Bank in recent years, especially the information about Leeson and the wrong account.

Much of the above information is unknown to Sir Peter Baring himself.

Now the other party took it over and looked at it. The more he looked at it, the more shocked he became. The more he looked at it, the more surprised he became. He almost became unsteady on his feet.

"Sir Barings, if this information is spread, do you think Barings Bank will still exist?"

"How could this be?"

In his opinion, Leeson is a very powerful investment expert. How could he do these things?

Huo Jianning remained silent, waiting for Sir Balin to make his choice.

Of course, Sir Balin can also choose to refuse, or choose to remain silent.

However, after the Barings Bank incident occurred and Barings Bank lost its credibility and influence, one can imagine how great the losses were.

Especially now that Li Sen is still doing well and is still in Xinjiapo.

What Sir Peter Baring thought about was that he and Barings Bank Headquarters had been deceived by the other party for so long.

"Mr. Huo, what do you want?"

"First, sell Barings Bank to the Imperial Group immediately. You and the Barings family can still get a good price. Second, have Leeson come back from Singapore immediately and arrest the other party immediately."

"Of course, if this matter is not handled as soon as possible, it will inevitably lead to the collapse of Bahrain Bank. After losing credibility, credit, and accumulated users, Bahrain Bank will be worthless by then."

Historically, it was for this reason that Barings Bank was eventually acquired by Holland International Group for a symbolic fee of one pound.

"I, I still want to think it over."

It is now the fifth generation of the Baring family to rely on Barings Bank. It is a very prominent fifth generation. All five generations have been recognized by the royal family and granted inherited titles.

If there were no Barings Bank, would the Barings family still be the same Barings family?

of course not.

However, Sir Peter Baring also knew that if something happened to Leeson, Barings Bank would probably go bankrupt.

Sir Peter Baring was milling about there.

He knew that everything Huo Jianning said was true, and he also knew that the information he brought was true.

As for how the Imperial Group and Mr. Huo knew?

That is because the Imperial Group's own information channels are far more powerful than outsiders imagine.

In fact, Sir Peter Baring had suspected Leeson before. After all, he had lost so much money and the headquarters also sent people to investigate, but in the end it was nothing.

Unexpectedly, the truth is here.
