From Governor Qi's words, Zhang Xudong learned that
The Hong Kong government is closely linked to the European and American economies.
It was also hit hard by this economic crisis.
All industries are declining, business is sluggish, prices are rising, and many people are unemployed.
Robbery is rampant, public security is deteriorating, rents are rising, and the number of tourists has plummeted.
The property and stock markets are even more devastated.
There are many investors who go bankrupt or jump off buildings every day.
This made Qi, who had just taken over the post of Governor, very worried.
But there is no solution.
Unexpectedly, he had more and more headaches.
First, there was a shortage of gasoline and diesel in the market.
Even though the price of oil has increased several times, there is still no supply.
More and more ships, factories, and private cars are grounded.
Then there was not enough food to sell.
Polar bears and major European and American countries are competing for food supplies.
This makes being in Southeast Asia,
The Hong Kong government, which has never had a shortage of food, has also fallen into a famine this time.
The Hong Kong government is now in chaos.
Social order is gradually moving towards disorder.
Governor Qi lay on the ground as if he was playing a trick - he had no other tricks.
Just when he was about to write his resignation report,
After being reminded by his subordinates, he discovered a strange phenomenon.
That is, all businesses and people have been affected by the economic crisis,
But all Huaqing’s industries are unique.
They have no shortage of jobs or money.
There is no shortage of fuel and food.
The machines in every factory in Huaqing are roaring non-stop.
Every cargo ship of Huaqing,
They were constantly emitting black smoke while sailing in the port and on the sea.
Various vehicles driving on the street,
More than 90% of them are Chinese youth.
The unemployed who seek employment in the companies under Huaqing,
Basically, they have all been included by Huaqing.
Then directly through labor dispatch,
They were sent out of the Hong Kong government territory in batches.
Governor Qi doesn't care how many people leave.
Governor Qi was only concerned about ensuring that the Hong Kong government's tax revenue remained stable and that order remained intact.
Now we need to ensure the supply of oil and food.
It is the key to maintaining order in the Hong Kong government.
From all indications, the Chinese youth have no shortage of these two things.
Therefore, he regarded Zhang Xudong as his last straw.
This call came in a hurry.
Zhang Xudong has no shortage of oil and food.
Especially oil, you can have as much as you want.
Just say what price you want.
However, Zhang Xudong will never do that because of himself.
To influence the oil organizations' control over oil prices.
If someone gives you face, you cannot ruin their good fortune.
And now I have my own oil fields,
When oil prices rise, I will also benefit.
We must not destroy the alliance in the oil industry.
But Lao Qi's face cannot be ignored.
Finally, Zhang Xudong agreed to Governor Qi's request.
Oil can be supplied to the Hong Kong government in fixed quantities.
But there must be two prerequisites.
The first is that the Hong Kong government can only allow these oil products to be consumed in Hong Kong.
It must not flow into the European and American markets.
The second is that prices must follow market trends.
It's good to have it for you.
Stop whining about the price.
Lao Qi immediately agreed to these two requests.
The British Isles have ignored his requests for help in the past few months.
Why would he care about the British Isles now?
It would be a great pleasure to be able to sit still.
As for food, Zhang Xudong said he could do nothing to help.
He has a lot of people to feed now, and the Middle East is a big consumer of food.
His reserves and expiring grain futures,
First of all, we must maintain the supply of these two aspects.
As for whether the port city is in chaos now, it has nothing to do with him.
As long as his Huaqing is not messy, it's fine.
No comparison, no harm.
Only by letting them see the benefits of following Huaqing,
Chinese youth will have more and more say in Hong Kong in the future.
Of course, Zhang Xudong would not help Lao Qi for nothing.
Several more requests were made later.
Zhang Xudong knew that
The only thing we can talk about with these foreigners is deals and interests.
Talking about friendship is just making yourself uncomfortable and is pure nonsense.
Zhang Xudong didn't go too far.
It only requires the Hong Kong government to continue to relax restrictions on the entry of refugees from the north.
Increase the rights of Chinese youth security guards when performing their tasks.
As for Huaqing Company's cargo ships when entering and leaving the country,
Enjoy the convenience of priority clearance.
These demands have a great impact on the current Hong Kong government's taxation and order.
There are only advantages and no disadvantages.
So Lao Qi thought about it for a while,
He agreed without hesitation.
After sending Lao Qi away, Zhang Xudong just hung up the phone.
The satellite phone rang again.
Zhang Xudong saw that this was a familiar number.
The call was from John, an old acquaintance of the California Governor.
Zhang Xudong frowned. He was well aware of the situation in California.
There shouldn't be any trouble.
What could John be calling about?
"Boss, when can you return to San Francisco?"
After a few pleasantries, John got down to business.
"John, what happened?"
“Boss, everyone feels that now is our chance.
So, I would like to invite you to discuss this with me.”
After hearing this, Zhang Xudong's mouth curled up unconsciously.
Although John didn't say it very clearly,
But Zhang Xudong understood what he was talking about as soon as he heard it.
