"And that brainless Humphrey, he's actually using the 'union' to threaten Kobayashi Tenno?"
MacLehose cleared his throat and began to speak:
“Ahem! Humphrey, Davis.”
"Gentlemen, please sit down."
"I strongly suggest that you listen carefully to every word Mr. Kobayashi says next."
"Excuse my bluntness, but Mr. Kobayashi's current financial resources far exceed your imagination."
"And he was very sincere."
Humphrey and Davis finally came to their senses and began to look directly at Lin Huowang and MacLehose.
Although they didn't know what was happening on Hong Kong Island, they understood MacLehose's attitude.
Even the Governor of Hong Kong, Murray MacLehose, now treats Kobayashi Tenmo with such respect and courtesy.
This is sufficient to demonstrate that Kobayashi Tenmoku did not suffer a margin call in his silver futures investment.
Could it be that he recouped some of his losses by following that mysterious person, or even made a considerable profit?
The two did pay attention to the silver war in the international market, but they didn't think it had anything to do with them.
The only person they had any connection with, Kobayashi Tenno, was also believed to have been liquidated on the very day the US adjusted its policies and increased margin requirements.
As for the mysterious person who made billions, they believe he must be part of a network of interests among American politicians.
Yes!
Americans are masters at making this kind of money; it's utterly shameless.
Humphrey forced himself to calm down. He sat back in his chair, but no longer dared to sit in the main seat. Instead, he sat to the side.
He clung to his last shred of dignity, stubbornly saying:
Even if... even if you don't go bankrupt! So what!
"Our Leyland company is the pride of Britain! The unions...the unions won't agree! They're still protesting outside! Even if you acquire it, you won't be able to start operations!"
"union."
Lin Huowang nodded and said:
"Yes, unions are a problem."
"However, before we resolve the union issue, I'd like to show you something first."
"After all, to solve the employment problem for British workers, first of all... I need to have money, right?"
"And to make you believe I have money..."
He gestured to Gao Qiaohao, who was standing behind him.
Gao Qiaohao also flew to London with him this time to facilitate handling more acquisition matters.
So Gao Qiaohao placed a thick blue folder in the center of the conference table.
“What is this?” Davis frowned.
"My first card. You are very fortunate to see these..."
Lin Huowang said calmly, "My 'Dragon Brand' electrical appliances have received the vast majority of pre-sale orders for the Christmas season in Europe and America in the past few weeks."
He gestured for Gao Qiaohao to open the document.
Inside were densely packed procurement contracts from European and American retail giants such as Walmart, Sears, and Carrefour!
Every contract was stamped with a bright red seal and shocking figures!
"This...this is impossible!"
Humphrey's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
"Walmart...five hundred million US dollars?!"
"Sears...three hundred million?!"
"France...Germany..."
His hands trembled as he turned the pages, completely stunned by the numbers and amounts displayed.
"These...these appliances..."
Lord Davis's voice trembled as well, "They're all...made in Shekou, mainland China? You have such a powerful light industrial capacity?"
Gao Qiaohao calmly closed the folder and turned to the last page, the summary page.
For Gao Qiaohao, who experienced it firsthand, these past few weeks have been both incredibly difficult and... exhilarating.
The pressure came from the backlog of electrical products and the pressure transmitted by the silver bulls in the international futures market. But then came the incredibly smooth journey of flying around the world to promote and showcase Dragon Brand electrical appliances. And the silver bulls watched as their side made unstoppable progress and completely controlled the market.
Wow!
Gao Qiaohao truly couldn't believe that in less than a year, he had gone through so many business battles with Xiao Linsheng.
Putting everything else aside, this experience alone is enough for him to cherish and be proud of for the rest of his life.
Turning to the last page, Lin Huowang stretched out his finger and gently tapped the final summary figure.
He looked at the three stunned Englishmen opposite him, knowing that this number would completely overwhelm them.
"As you can see."
"In total, two billion US dollars."
"Bang!"
Sir MacLehose could no longer hold his cup of Ceylon tea properly, and it crashed onto the expensive carpet with a loud thud.
He also thought Lin Huowang was only good at silver and Viagra...
damn it!
He didn't know... he really didn't know...
This kid, he actually...
Still in the real economy...
They made two billion US dollars?
Is it the Shekou Industrial Park?
That home appliance project that was not viewed favorably by the entire Hong Kong Island?
Wow! This is incredible!
If electrical appliances from the Shekou Industrial Park truly begin to replace Japanese-made products and sell well worldwide, this will be a stable source of income, and the profits and prospects that will bring are unimaginable.
If Hong Kong Island can leverage its port advantages to provide supporting services for the Shekou Industrial Park, the profits it can generate from import and export goods alone will be astronomical!
At that moment, in the eyes of Governor Murray MacLehose, Lam Fook-wong was no longer a human being, but a god-like figure.
Humphrey and Davis were completely dumbfounded.
Two billion... US dollars?!
This is more than their British company Leyland's turnover over five years!
And this is only the first batch of pre-sale items?
Made in factories in mainland China, which they despise the most?!
Lin Huowang looked at the three completely bewildered Englishmen, smiled, picked up his cup of tea, and gently blew on it.
"So, gentlemen."
"I'll say it again, I'm very rich."
"Now, we can talk about... the union issue."
"Oh, right."
"This two billion US dollars..."
"This is just my...first card."
