"Really? You think you haven't suffered enough losses yet? Kobayashi Tenno hasn't even seriously targeted your Jardine Matheson yet, and you've already lost over a hundred million and sold all your Hongkong Land shares. If he really takes you seriously and sets a trap for you, how much of Jardine Matheson's assets do you think you can save?"
Niu Bijian froze; MacLehose's words struck him like a heavy hammer blow.
He wanted to refute, but found himself speechless. Yes, he had already used a lot of Jardine Matheson's resources to target Kobayashi Tenno, but what was the result? Not only did he fail to harm the other party in the slightest, but he himself suffered huge losses.
“As the Governor of Hong Kong, I am naturally on the side of you British companies.” MacLehose’s tone softened a bit. “So I advise you not to overestimate yourself. Curb your ambitions, manage Jardine Matheson well, and stop thinking about going head-to-head with Kobayashi Tenmoku. Otherwise, in the end, you and Jardine Matheson will be the ones who suffer.”
After saying this, MacLehose stood up: "I have other things to take care of, so I won't keep you any longer."
This is clearly a signal to see the guest out.
Niu Bijian sat on the sofa, his mind blank. He couldn't understand why the Governor of Hong Kong held Kobayashi Tenno in such high regard.
Why did the Governor of Hong Kong think he was no match for Kobayashi Tenno? Victory was clearly within reach; just one more push and Kobayashi Tenno would be doomed!
He stood up dejectedly, bowed to Murray MacLehose, and turned to walk out of Government House.
As he sat in the car on his way back, Niu Bijian leaned back in his seat, closed his eyes, and was filled with shock and bewilderment.
The Governor's words kept echoing in his ears: "He is more powerful and far more terrifying than you can imagine."
Could it be that Kobayashi Tenmoku really has some hidden trump card? Is his strength really so great that even the Governor of Hong Kong has to be wary of him?
Newman was filled with doubt and resentment. He had spent his whole life in the business world, and he had seen all kinds of opponents. But no one had ever made him feel so frustrated, and no one had ever received such high praise from the Governor of Hong Kong.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible." Niu Bijian muttered to himself, a glint of madness flashing in his eyes. "Kobayashi Tenno, I won't give up like this. You just wait, I will make you pay the price!"
Despite this, the Governor's warning weighed heavily on his mind like a boulder.
He knew that the Governor's words were not just empty talk, and if he continued to act arbitrarily, he would not only fail to gain the Governor's support, but might even attract unnecessary trouble.
The car drove along the road, the scenery of Hong Kong Island flashing by outside the window, but Newt G. Ken had no time to appreciate it. His mind was in turmoil, sometimes thinking about how to continue targeting Kobayashi Tenno, sometimes thinking about the Governor's warning, and he was caught in a deep dilemma.
He never understood how that young man from Japan could rise to prominence in such a short time, gaining the attention of the Governor of Hong Kong and receiving such protection and support from Sham Pui...
