Chapter 202
After Wu Ming finished telling the news, the room fell silent.
Kuman couldn't help but frown. He also recently learned about Lin Wei's desire to acquire Hutchison Whampoa.
Because he had also set his sights on Hutchison Whampoa before, and now they were the only ones in Hong Kong who could take over this company that was originally ranked second. When he came to Lin Wei excitedly, Lin Wei explained the situation to him. .
In this current situation, we can neither move nor move.
No matter what we do, in the end, foreign companies will not be in Lin Wei's hands.
If we go to fight, it seems that the winner is about half, but after HSBC fails, nine out of ten will turn around and provide loan support to Hutchison Whampoa. Then, it will be difficult for Hutchison Whampoa to be acquired by anyone after it has recovered.
They have to make a choice.
Lin Wei exhaled deeply. She had been bothered by this matter for several months and had exhausted all her brain cells.
Although this is not the first time I have faced this kind of dilemma, it is really the most disgusting time.
Kuman said: "There are only two options to choose from. Either HSBC monopolizes Hutchison Whampoa, or we fight for it. In the end, no one will benefit."
He could not think of any other way.
With HSBC on its radar, there is no other way out.
Lin Wei closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and said, "Then give it to them!"
Kuman was stunned for a moment, not expecting Lin Wei to make this decision.
After all, HSBC had done a lot of things that were harmful to others and not self-interested in recent days. He thought that Lin Wei would at least take revenge, but why did he let it go so easily?
Lin Wei held her forehead: "Let them go crazy if they are crazy. Don't bite them when they are like dogs. I want to see how far they can go!"
The most taboo thing in the shopping mall is to do thankless things, even if She has ten thousand reasons for wanting to kill these people, and the first thing she should consider is the company.
Wu Ming looked at her confused look: "After Hutchison Whampoa is put into trusteeship, the investment in manpower, material and financial resources will be huge. HSBC can't afford it now. Now we can start to buy other real estate in Central, which is considered a gain." It’s okay, don’t worry too much.”
HSBC has to pay off Hutchison Whampoa’s debt and pay a large sum of money for the equity purchase.
He had been engaged in a game with Lin Wei for more than half a year and spent a lot of money on HSBC. Now the funds are not abundant. Mike will not let the deposit reserve fall below the safety line. He still knows how to ease it.
Lin Wei raised her head and looked at them with a smile: "Then you go ahead and buy as much as you can, and it's not limited to Central. It mainly depends on asset allocation, whether you can make a combo, and how much money you have. , but once you spend it, you will find that it is limited. The premise is to maximize the income."
Wait until Kuman leaves.
Lin Wei looked at Wu Ming: "How is the Chinese Bank handling the situation?"
"The property is still being handed over, but the customer acceptance is good, and there are no major changes." Wu Ming said.
With the Micro Building in Causeway Bay, the Kowloon Building in Mongkok, Kowloon, and now the Chinatown skyscraper in Central, Lin Wei's current large-scale high-end office buildings have increased to three.
...
"She had this idea from the beginning. What she said at the beginning was to develop together, to take the lead and give us the control. It was simply impossible. It was the same method. Her original purpose was to monopolize the skyscrapers. , It’s just something went wrong,”
said Dongfang Industrial’s board of directors.
Some people think that Lin Wei wanted to take away the Chinatown from the beginning. Even if she agreed to Lin Wei's request to jointly develop it, she would eventually use this trick to snatch away the skyscraper. But in the end, they held back a trick. Lin Wei stopped her original plan from succeeding.
"Then according to you, this mistake actually helped her. After all, we spent more than 300 million on the land of the old post office. As a result, she only spent 300 million now. Not only did she get two of the land from the Chinese Bank and the General Post Office, A piece of land and a built skyscraper, do you want to say that this is a blessing in disguise for her?"
After the director said this, the expressions of the others were wonderful, and they all looked like they had toothache. I worked hard for a long time and made wedding clothes for others.
You must know that the highest valuation of the Chinese Bank is nearly 2 billion. Now that the news of building a subway has come out, it can be foreseen that when the situation improves in the future, the value of this building will be horrifying.
They are a profitable business, but they are the real ones who have been taken advantage of!
"Looking at it now, this is the fact. Regardless of whether we cooperate with her or not, she is planning to acquire the skyscrapers. This is like the behavior of the richest man Lin."
Some people disagreed with his statement: "Your assumption The premise is that she had long expected that the real estate would collapse. If she had followed her previous assumptions, she would have had no chance to do so. Rather than saying that she had already started the calculation, it would be better to say that she was retaliating for our previous betrayal."
"What's wrong with her? It can't be predicted. Didn't she say that the stock market was going to crash? "
The stock market was rising so fiercely at that time. Many people said that. It was different from when we were buying the land."
The two directors started arguing.
"Okay," Chu Aidong finally stopped them, "There's no point in fighting about this now."
Someone agreed: "Yes, it's more serious to think about a solution. Do you have any ideas for us to get the Chinese Bank back?" ."
Everyone quieted down, stopped talking, and looked at Chen Hengxi subconsciously.
How to get it?
The contract was signed by Chen Hengxi, and it stipulated that under various circumstances, Lin Wei could forcibly obtain the ownership of the Chinese Bank after a certain number of days overdue. There were no loopholes in the terms of the contract, and there was no chance of winning the lawsuit.
If Chu Aidong is willing, he can push Chen Hengxi to take the blame, accuse him of corruption, and determine that Lin Wei obtained the Chinese Bank through improper means, making the contract invalid.
But as the son of the chairman, Chen Hengxi has the position of general manager, an official seal, a signature, a financial seal, and complete procedures. How should he do this?
The court will certainly not support it.
Chu Yinghao suddenly snorted: "Shouldn't we ask our smart and capable manager this? After all, we lost the Chinese Bank due to his wise decision."
When Chen Hengxi first became the manager of Dongfang Industrial, everyone was not very convinced. , his initial power was not great, and there was an old man who "supervised" him. But slowly, everyone discovered that Chen Hengxi was much more capable than Chu Yinghao. He had a unique vision, was calm in dealing with things, made decisive decisions, had clear rewards and punishments, and was very good at management.
The biggest turning point was the 300 million loan. When Dongfang Industrial faced the risk of delisting, he borrowed 300 million to turn the tide. This made his prestige in the company reach an unprecedented height. Directors and senior executives all believed in him. The old man who had been "guiding" Chen Hengxi had to let go.
But no one would have thought that it was because of these 300 million that they had lost their skyscrapers.
"I'm sorry. My personal negligence has caused huge losses to the company." Chen Hengxi stood up on his own initiative. "I will resign as the general manager of Dongfang Industrial. I have failed to live up to everyone's expectations. I'm sorry."
Chu Yinghao said coldly . : "Otherwise, do you still want to hold on to this position?"
With such a big mistake, the manager Chen Hengxi will definitely have to withdraw. Now that he stands up, he can be more dignified.
If Chu Aidong still defends him, it will be difficult to convince the public.
Even if he comes back after a while, it is better than acting under pressure now. After all, in addition to the directors, there are also shareholders. Now that Dongfang Industrial's stock price has plummeted, Chu Aidong is under great pressure.
Chu Yinghao felt that he had finally won back a victory, and that the manager of Dongfang Industrial could finally be back in his hands.
As a result, Chu Aidong randomly assigned an old man from the board of directors to exercise power as the acting general manager.
They also asked everyone to vote by a show of hands.
"Whoever can lead Dongfang Industrial out of the predicament can take this position," Chu Aidong said. "The board of directors has always made clear rewards and punishments. Only those who have contributed to the company are qualified to be the helmsman of Dongfang Industrial."
Chu Yinghao closed his fist . Tight, looks very ugly.
He had money in his hands. He and his mother followed Lin Wei's advice in the newspaper and promptly withdrew from the stock market, making a lot of profits.
He has not touched the money. Xu Wenshan said that he wanted to see what Lin Wei did and see what she did before they took action.
But they waited too long, and he never touched the money.
He wanted to take action last time, but was held down by his mother. Now, he felt that the real time had come.
He can no longer be suppressed by this illegitimate child!
...
"Run, your decision is right. The opportunity is rare. If you don't run now, you will regret it when it falls below 150 points again."
Yuan Yujun sat on the exchange, looking like he was distracted.
She didn't know if her decision was right. 330,000 yuan turned into 13,000 yuan now.
She originally thought that as long as she didn't sell the stocks, she wouldn't lose money, but as she watched the market drop below the lower limit little by little, her mentality completely collapsed.
She didn't sell when 600 points rebounded to 800 points, and she didn't sell when 400 points rebounded to 600 points...
The stock market was ups and downs, and she had countless opportunities to leave the market, but she was reluctant to bear the loss. money.
"If you don't run away now, you won't even get a cent when those companies go bankrupt and delist."
The admonishment coming from next door from time to time is the best portrayal of her mood at the moment.
Everyone is afraid. From time to time there will be news in the newspapers about the collapse of listed companies and bankruptcy liquidation.
This is not bad. If you are lucky, you may be able to get some compensation. Some bosses simply took away their assets and fled overseas. The investors had no way to complain.
Yuan Yujun walked out of the exchange in a daze. The dazzling sunlight shone down and she felt difficulty breathing. It was like a big mountain was pressing on her back, making her breathless. With such a huge sum of money, all her belongings were gone.
How should she explain this when she goes back?
"Mrs. Sun..."
Yuan Yujun heard someone calling her.
"It's really you. Oh, it's been a long time since we last met."
Yuan Yujun raised his head and saw a middle-aged woman appearing in front of him. The woman's skin was very dark and her lips were a little blue. She looked very familiar. , it took her a while to recognize who the other person was, but the name came to her lips, but she couldn't remember it.
This woman is her former neighbor.
"You are really prosperous and noble, have you really forgotten me?"
"No, how is it possible, you are not..." Yuan Yujun scanned the brown paper bag she was holding and happened to scan the name on the cover. , he breathed a sigh of relief, clapped his legs and said with a smile, "You are Ah Hua, how could I forget?"
"Just say yes?" The other party was very happy, and pulled Yuan Yujun and said he was going to drink tea.
Yuan Yujun just didn't want to go back, so he thought it would be good to relax, so he came together.
"Did you just go to the hospital? What did you get?"
"This," the woman looked at the file bag in her hand and sighed, "What can I do? I'm sick. I'm also a poor person. I have to work hard. I haven't had a good day in most of my life, and I still have such a tormenting disease. I don't know what sin I did in my previous life to deserve this."
After hearing the other person's ramble, Yuan Yujun knew . She has pancreatic cancer.
I heard that this disease is very fatal and very torturous.
Indeed, as the other party said, Ahua is a very hard-working and capable woman. She has seniors and juniors. She has a family of seven or eight people to support. She wakes up early and goes to dusk, working hard, but in the end this is the end.
God is indeed blind.
Compared to her pampered days, A-hua's life was miserable.
"If you die, you will die. This disease is very torturous. I can't sleep the whole night and I'm rolling in pain. I have to take medicine to survive. You don't know how expensive medicines are nowadays. I...sometimes... I think it's better to hang myself with a rope.
"Don't say that. It's better to live than to die. Is it possible that the disease will be cured one day?"
Yuan Yujun looked at the envelope in his bag and hesitated. He took out the five thousand yuan and gave it to the woman: "You can use this money first. This is it. Stop thinking about others and take care of yourself first."
The woman looked at the money, her eyes immediately turned red . Thank you very much, I want to kneel down and kowtow to Yuan Yujun.
The money given by Yuan Yujun is equivalent to more than half a year's salary for a person.
When Yuan Yujun went back, her depression had dissipated a lot, and she was better than the worst. There were so many miserable people, so she was pretty good.
When we got home, we were just in time for dinner, but Lin Wei didn't come down to eat. It was said that there were guests.
Yuan Yujun looked at Ahua's cowhide bag in his hand and had to find time to return it.
The other party was probably so happy that he even forgot to take the medical record bag.
"Mrs. Sun, please help me, I made the lily and quail soup that you like today." Mother Wu greeted.
Recently, Yuan Yujun was in a bad mood and lost a lot of weight. They didn't know what happened, so they tried to find ways to make her feel better.
"Here, come right now..."
Yuan Yujun put down the file bag and quickly entered the kitchen.
"Who is looking for Nannan today? Doesn't she usually not see guests at home?"
"Master Tianrui, he is Miss Lin's friend, and he is not a foreigner." Zhang Ma replied.
...
"Can't he just be accommodating?" Su Tianrui lowered his head, his throat a little choked, "We have been friends for so many years, why can't he be accommodating?"
"If he does this, he is bending the law for personal gain," Lin Wei put her hands on On the overlapping legs, "He is in that position, with so many people staring at him. If he does something wrong, people will take advantage of him, and he can't be accommodating."
Song Ye was promoted too quickly.
Not long ago, the government promoted a group of officials, including Song Ye. Due to the previous bidding scandal of the old post office, he was one of the few business owners who was not involved in bribery. In addition, with his previous achievements in cleaning up the police force, Song Ye is now He directly took the top spot in the Independent Commission Against Corruption.
This is an exceptional promotion.
After taking office, his third fire was also lit.
This time it is the turn of the senior officials in Hong Kong City. Regardless of nationality or position, they must withstand Song Ye's iron-handed investigation.
"But those are my dad and the boss. Even if he reminds them a little, even if he lets them leave the port city, it would be better than now..." Su Tianrui's voice choked.
Lin Wei was silent for a few seconds before adding: "You know better than me what they have done. Your relationship with Song Ye is not a secret in the eyes of many people. Other officials have dealt with it, but they What do you think others will think if you escape early?"
Song Ye has now officially come to the stage, and his background has been found out clearly.
There were all kinds of speculations about the relationship between Lin Wei and Song Ye in the newspapers, especially when they discovered that the two escaped from Hong Kong together. Lin Wei had always been in the limelight and became the richest man now, and Song Ye was now also He began to stand out and appeared in front of everyone in an extremely domineering manner.
Some people say that the two have turned against each other, and some say that Song Ye is Lin Wei's minion. In short, any move Song Ye makes in front of the public will be noticed.
"I know," Su Tianrui held his head and held his hair tightly with his fingers, "I know it very well. I know that they have done too many unscrupulous things, and I even resented them for it. I also thought about reporting it. They brought them to justice, but if they really want me to kill my relatives for justice, I don't have the courage. They are my relatives. "
Although there are plots, they are still his family.
In fact, his father was not bad to him, and his two brothers were also very good to him when he was a child. Before he was developed, if he was bullied, they would stand up for him.
In his eyes, they are not purely bad people.
"Your mother has never come back..."
Su Tianrui paused after hearing Lin Wei's words and looked up at Lin Wei.
Lin Wei lowered her eyes and whispered: "When she came back from Macau, I told her not to go back to Xiangjiang."
Duan Yuzhen is a gangster, and she has touched lives on her hands. Although she is not under Song Ye's control, the police If it was found out, her life would not be easy.
Su Tianrui looked at Lin Wei and moved his lips: "Boss..."
"If you were asked to choose, would you want your father and brother, or your mother?" Lin Wei asked him.
Su Tianrui lowered his head again, held his head, and choked with sobs: "...Thank you."
Lin Wei patted him gently.
Killing one's relatives for justice is easy to say but extremely difficult to do. Even Duan Yuzhen couldn't bear it.
You can imagine how difficult it was to do what Song Ye did.
...
"This mad dog!"
Fu Wenfan took a deep breath while listening to the report on the phone.
His company was raided by Song Ye late at night and a lot of documents and information were taken away.
"What's their name?" Fu Wenfan asked.
"It was said that someone reported that... you took advantage of your position for personal gain, and you are suspected of infringement of your position."
Fu Wenfan laughed angrily: "Report? What's the difference between them and gangsters?"
"We can't stop them when they come with a search warrant. Live. "
The Independent Commission Against Corruption has great power. They can investigate any public officials suspected of corruption, and they are also equipped with guns.
Nowadays, civil servants in Hong Kong City can't help but shudder when they hear the name of the Independent Commission Against Corruption. It has become a feared existence.
Fu Wenfan rubbed his forehead, and
after a while, he sneered.
Then wait and see whether it is you who checks quickly or you are more lucky? !
"Wenfan?"
Hearing the voice behind him, Fu Wenfan hung up the phone. The anger on his face disappeared and was replaced by a soft smile.
Then slowly turned around.
"What's wrong with you? I thought I heard you were angry just now. What happened?" Yuan Ruyan asked.
"It's nothing, it's about the company." Fu Wenfan stepped forward to help her, "Don't worry, why did you go downstairs again?"
Yuan Ruyan held her waist, walked to the sofa, and sat down: "I just thought of something "What 's the matter?"
Fu Wenfan helped her sit down and went to pour her water: "What's the matter?"
Yuan Ruyan said, "I thought about this subway property bidding. In fact, it's not a good time. The land price is too cheap. Well, the reason why the government released the bid at this time is probably because of the lack of money."
Fu Wenfan paused, then he turned to Yuan Ruyan, holding the water glass: "You are saying that the focus of this bid is cash. ?”
Yuan Ruyan nodded: “Yes, this is the reason why Lin Wei was able to take pictures of the land in Causeway Bay last time. Think about it, is this timing similar? It was all done when the market was in a slump. "Earth King" to return blood? "
Fu Wenfan handed the water cup to Yuan Ruyan: "I have said before that you are better than the men outside. If you do business, your achievements may not be worse than your father."
Yuan Ruyan took the water glass and looked at him: "So is it true? You think what I said makes sense, right?"
Fu Wenfan touched her hair: "Of course, my wife can always see things that others can't think of. "
Yuan Ruyan smiled, lowered her head and took a sip of water, and said, "That's good. I'll tell my father when I get back and ask him to add this item to the bid."
The smile on Fu Wenfan's face disappeared, and his hands stopped. She consciously fell on Yuan Ruyan's shoulders: "Tell father?"
"Yes, this is equivalent to a double insurance. In the end, either you or your father will win the bid. Anyway, it will end up in our house. I will call you soon." Go back and tell him."
After Yuan Ruyan finished speaking, she didn't wait for Fu Wenfan's reply.
"What's wrong?" Yuan Ruyan raised her head to look at him.
Fu Wenfan looked at her, his smile gone, and his eyebrows were a little cold.
"You...don't want me to tell my father?" Yuan Ruyan asked hesitantly.
Fu Wenfan raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile: "How could it be? I think you don't need to be so anxious. There is still time anyway. Isn't my father's birthday coming up? If you tell him then, he will be even happier."
Yuan Ruyansong He took a breath and said: "I knew you were not that stingy."
