Chapter 243

Lin Wei was so angry that her chest was tight. They chatted for a while, but found that there was nothing they could do against HSBC.

Most methods are to kill eight hundred enemies and injure one thousand. The size of the opponent was too large. In later generations, HSBC, known as one of the four major banks in the world, was unbeatable. It was endorsed by the British government and had business all over the world. It was too big to fail compared with Morgan, Citigroup, and Bank of America. The eponymous World Bank.

The only way Lin Wei can think of now is to make Hang Seng bigger. Maybe one day she can counter-acquire HSBC...

Well, she is talking nonsense and is angry. This may be close to 0.

Not to mention HSBC, even Fu Sheng cannot move because it is too big. In recent years, everyone has been developing rapidly.

On New Year's Eve, Lin Wei temporarily put her work aside and went to the kitchen to make dumplings with her mother. People here in Yangcheng did not have the habit of eating dumplings, but the family still maintained the northern habit.

"The Great Wall will never fall, and the Yellow River is surging for thousands of miles...①" Fang Mobai hummed and entered the door.

Firecrackers had already started setting off outside, and Fang Mobai just returned home.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the young girl sitting on the sofa. My mood immediately lifted, and I drove over without a trace.

"Wave your way out of the bloody road.

If you want to work hard for the rejuvenation of the country,

why don't you let the country be trampled on again..."

He hummed and walked over, and wanted to pull up the other person's hair: "When did you come back? I did 800 looks a day." , This high ponytail fell off pretty well..."

Fang Mobai's words ended when the woman turned around.

He was so frightened that he quickly retracted his hand and took a few steps back: "Yes... I'm sorry, I thought it was me... it was Tangtang."

Hu Xiwen didn't know that the other party almost pulled her hair out. Seeing that the other party's face turned pale with fright, she quickly stood up. greet.

She politely stretched out her hand to the other party: "You are Awei's brother, my name is Hu Xiwen, and I am Awei's friend."

Hu Xiwen stood up, and Fang Mobai realized that the woman was very tall, just at the height of his lowered head, and the corners of the woman's lips Raising a slight smile, like flowers blooming on a moonlit night, there is something indescribably beautiful.

Hu Xiwen, who came from a beauty pageant background, has an appearance and temperament that is beyond ordinary people. He has been immersed in the fashion industry for more than ten years, and has an elegant and noble charm about him.

At this moment, she held her shawl with one hand, bowed slightly, and stretched out her other hand in front of Fang Mobai.

Fang Mobai was stunned, looking at the other party's bony and white fingers. After reacting, he quickly reached out and touched her lightly.

Then I remembered that I was playing with firecrackers just now and my hands were in vain, and I couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

Hu Xiwen said: "Awei should be in the kitchen..."

Fang Mobai said "ah" and then sat down on the sofa blankly.

After sitting down, he didn't speak or take the initiative to find a topic.

Hu Xiwen felt a little embarrassed. It was a bit uncomfortable for two strange adult men and women to be in the same space.

Song Ye went upstairs to please his future father-in-law, but Wu Ming didn't know what he was doing or when he would be back.

The other party didn't speak, so Hu Xiwen had to take the initiative to find a topic: "I heard that you were in the shipyard, what were you doing?"

Fang Mobai was motionless at first, but when he heard the other party ask this, he felt as if someone had just opened the mute point, and his body bounced. , straightened up, and then said in an emotionless voice: "I am a ship engineer. I can do a lot. I have to participate in the entire construction and design of the ship. I used to be responsible for more maintenance and repairs, mainly maintenance and troubleshooting. The main work now is to install and debug equipment, and also be responsible for calculations such as speed, load, fuel consumption, etc. By the way, our shipyard has recently introduced a new equipment that can perform inspections on the hull structure..." His current state is very similar. He had someone pull out the valve, let it pour out like a flood, and talk endlessly about his work.

Hu Xiwen smiled, but felt that there was an indescribable embarrassment in the air. Lin Wei was so lively, why was her brother so dull?

It wasn't until Lin Wei came out of the kitchen that the atmosphere around her relaxed and she could finally breathe well.

The New Year's Eve dinner was very sumptuous, and both Lin Wei and Song Ye cooked the food themselves.

Lin Wei's work was well received, but Song Ye's was a little lackluster.

Lin Wei was ridiculed mercilessly.

"How can the food be delicious with so little oil and salt?"

Song Ye was silent for a few seconds, and then retorted rarely: "The steamed one is okay."

Lin Wei looked at him in disbelief: "So you made this The dish is steamed eggplant?"

"Hahaha..."

Everyone laughed.

Fang Lianxin came out to help Song Ye make up for it: "What do you know? This is how upright officials behave. Why are you so extravagant and wasteful?"

Lin Wei immediately picked up a large eggplant with chopsticks and gave it to her father after hearing this: "Then Please eat more. If there is not enough, I will give you two more potatoes and serve you a famous Northeastern dish of potatoes and eggplant."

Fang Lianxin looked at the half-covered eggplant in his bowl and suddenly felt a little tasteless in his mouth. He had eaten enough of the tasteless things ten years ago. This traitor is getting more and more outrageous.

"Eat quickly, it's your eldest son-in-law's consideration." Lin Wei urged.

"Shut up!" Fang Lianxin couldn't bear it.

The eldest son-in-law, he only has a daughter, who is the second son-in-law?

Fang Mobai smiled happily and wanted to poke Wu Ming, who was blushing and white, but when he saw Hu Xiwen opposite, he immediately withdrew his hand.

Hu Xiwen lowered her head and smiled. This was the most festive Spring Festival she had experienced in years, unlike in Xiangjiang, a home that was becoming less and less popular.

Lin Wei's family atmosphere is something she envies very much. She always has a way to make everyone happy. To do her part, she can't get enough of fawning and flattery every day, but she always treats her family and friends the same way.

When she returned to Xiangjiang, Lin Wei asked her how she was doing and if she felt uncomfortable.

"It's all good. Your family is very interesting. Your uncle and aunt are very nice. I just didn't expect your brother to be so introverted and not at all the same as you."

Huh?

Is her brother introverted?

Lin Wei was stunned. Seeing the King of Hell in broad daylight was like a ghost.

In the new year, Lin Wei established a venture capital company in Silicon Valley, USA, and investors came to her door one after another. However, the entry conditions she set were extremely harsh, with an investment threshold of US$100 million, and also required connections and resources. Most investors are excluded.

Moreover, Micro Capital does not release financial reports to the public and cannot redeem funds within three years. No one knows what projects she has invested in.

This reminds people of the once world-famous "Ponzi scheme", and then rumors began to spread that Lin Wei was a liar, using her popularity to defraud investors of their money.

The high threshold set by Lin Wei and the rumors of fraud have resulted in not many investors entering micro capital, but she doesn't seem to take it too seriously. She does whatever she wants.

In April 1982, Britain and Argentina went to war over the ownership of the Falklands. The war lasted for nearly two months and finally ended with Britain's victory.

The British people were jubilant, and the new prime minister's popularity was at an all-time high.

But on the contrary, the Hong Kong market was bleak and the Hong Kong dollar fell severely.

At the beginning of the year, the British Hong Kong government abolished the interest tax on foreign currency deposits, but the interest tax on Hong Kong dollars was not abolished. This caused investors to deposit Hong Kong dollars as foreign currencies.

The most serious thing is that citizens are full of anxiety and uneasiness about the future. If there is a war, what will the future of Hong Kong be like?

This uncertainty and confusion was quickly reflected in real estate and stocks.

Over the years, the market has gone up and down, and Xiangjiang real estate has also risen and fallen, but everyone still can't seem to get used to it. In fact, every situation is different. The first time was a man-made disaster, the second time was a stock market crash, and this time it was a Current affairs that are completely beyond their control.

Ordinary people can only resign themselves to their fate and wait for the game between the great powers.

Then a similar process started again, and some people began to sell their assets and go abroad.

People subconsciously focused their attention on Lin Wei, wondering whether she would go through the process again this time after buying low-priced Xiangjiang real estate twice before.

As a result, Lin Wei really took action.

In July, shortly after the Falklands War ended, Kowloon Aviation, a subsidiary of Micro Industries, announced that it had purchased 51% of the shares of GBA TV station for HK$200 million and obtained the operating rights.

It suddenly aroused everyone's speculation, why did the TV station start up if it wasn't real estate?

In fact, Lin Wei took over passively. The parent company of GBA TV station, Lisheng, wanted to sell the station due to poor management.

There are many big players who want to take over the GBA situation, but Director Yang approached Lin Wei and wanted her to take over the game.

Lin Wei was a little hesitant. You have to know that TVB will be the only one in the future. Don't look at how popular GBA is now. Last year's "Heroes Fearless" created a crowd-pleased scene. When the show was broadcast, there was no one on the street. It was hard to beat. TVB had no power to fight back, but future generations don’t know what went wrong with Li, and it ended in a disastrous situation. She really didn’t know the inside story at all, and was just afraid that something unexpected would happen and she would end up in a mess.

She doesn't come from a media background, so it would take a lot of energy for her to be a TV station. She has no confidence in competing with TVB. She probably can only copy the variety shows and TV series she watched in her previous life, which would be meaningless.

She doesn't like to go against the trend of history unless necessary.

As a result, Luo Jiatong came to be a lobbyist. This workaholic spent the Spring Festival at a TV station. He organized a very successful party, invited many celebrities and big names, and rubbed TVB on the ground.

Luo Jiatong and Lin Wei guarantee that they will be able to do a good job in GBA, so that she should not have any worries and will not let her lose money.

Now that it's like this, Lin Wei just rushes to put it on the shelves.

Luo Jiatong was so happy that she, who was always steady, hugged Lin Wei and kissed her several times.

Lin Wei couldn't resist the enthusiasm: "Stop kissing, Mr. Shi will be jealous if I kiss you again."

Luo Jiatong's face turned red: "It's none of his business, you're too rude."

Lin Wei Yawning, she was taking a nap when she was caught by Luo Jiatong: "I am kind of a matchmaker, and I was the one who donated the collection of poems as a gift."

At first, Lin Wei just said that casually, but Luo Jiatong and Shi Jingchen came together unexpectedly. , that collection of poems became a token of love between the two of them, and the two of them came together in circles, which can be regarded as a story of childhood sweethearts.

"Then... do you want to be our witness?"

"What?" Lin Wei froze mid-yawn.

Luo Jiatong is getting married, which has caused quite a disturbance in the family.

The main reason is that the marriage issue between Lin Wei and Fang Mobai has not been resolved for a long time, and the two elderly people in the family are anxious and angry.

How can anyone be so old and still not married?

In this era, he is a complete anomaly.

Lin Wei kept saying she was busy and said she would wait until she was done with her work for a while, but she had no time to spare and would hide away when pressed.

"Look at these people, they are all married for the second time. What about you? None of them make me worry."

Seeing that her mother was nagging her again, Lin Wei turned around and was about to leave the greenhouse, but was grabbed by Lin Hanzhi. .

"Okay, let's not talk about you anymore," Lin Hanzhi put down the flower pot, "You can help your brother, he will have to be a bachelor for the rest of his life."

"What can I help, introduce him to a girlfriend?" Lin Wei waved her hands quickly, "I won't do it, I hate people..."

But before she could finish her sentence, she got a shovel.

Lin Hanzhi said angrily: "What girlfriend are you introducing? Your brother has someone he likes. You are really stupid."

Lin Wei was completely stunned: "Who is it?"

She thought that his brother was not interested in women anymore. When I hang out with men, I even suspect that there is something wrong with his sexual orientation.

Something happened now?

Lin Hanzhi looked at her completely unaware look, said "Oh" and said, "You are really ignorant, that's the friend of yours, the one you brought home during the last Chinese New Year."

Lin Wei's eyes widened: "My brother Actually like Wu Ming? It turns out that he really likes men..."

Before she could say the next words, several screams came from the greenhouse.

A few minutes later, Lin Wei came out of the greenhouse with several red marks on her forehead.

By chance, she ran into Fang Mobai, and Lin Wei glared at him dissatisfied.

This guy really dares to think that Hu Xiwen is the godmother of Asian fashion, and she also suffers from her skin color. Otherwise, there is no need for the Asian prefix. How many French men are queuing up to date.

A little country bumpkin with quite high standards, these two people don't get along at all, okay?

She danced twice at Fang Mobai: "If you dare to have evil thoughts about my friend, I won't kill you."

Seeing her embarrassed look, Fang Mobai originally wanted to mock her, but when Lin Wei said this, his expression froze.

"Who did you listen to?"

Lin Wei said "ha": "Anyway, don't expect me to help you. I will tell her all the things you did when you were a child."

"Ahhhhh..."

As a result, Lin Wei Wei was beaten up again. Fang Mobai carried her like a chicken and threatened her with force.

No one in the company dared to argue with her, but when she returned home, Lin Wei was at the bottom of the food chain.

But even so, she didn't care about Fang Mobai and Hu Xiwen's affairs.

When it comes to relationships, outsiders can't tell whether they are a good match or not. At this age, if you have this intention, someone must take the initiative.

If Fang Mobai plays secret love and Hu Xiwen doesn't go back to Xiangjiang a few times a year, I'm afraid it won't be a big deal.

As a result, at the end of the year, Lin Wei was slapped in the face, and Hu Xiwen appeared again at the New Year's Eve dinner at home as Fang Mobai's girlfriend.

It was also because she was too busy that she didn't even know what was going on. These people who couldn't even get along were actually together.

Lin Wei doesn't worry much about other people's emotional problems. After all, relationships are not a necessary option in this life.

But she was still very happy to see that her brother had someone he liked.

"Look at me," Lin Wei pushed Wu Ming, "Go and ask her later to learn something."

Wu Ming glanced at her and said indifferently: "What are you learning? Am I not the second son-in-law in this family? "

Lin Wei: "..."

She finally knew how others felt when she was having a blowjob.

Time passes very quickly after a certain point. In 1983, the mainland's policies improved and everything was prosperous. However, Hong Kong was bleak and the situation became even worse.

Within one year, Hong Kong real estate fell sharply, the Hong Kong stock market fell from a high of more than 1,800 points to more than 600 points, and the Hong Kong dollar also depreciated by nearly one-third.

The British Hong Kong government used the Exchange Fund to intervene in the decline of the Hong Kong dollar, but with little success.

All major real estate companies are having a hard time, and the larger they are, the greater the impact.

But Lin Wei is the anomaly again this time. The companies under Micro Industrial are methodical. They will buy back their stocks when they fall to a certain level. It is still the same old method as before. Micro Industrial actually has the money to buy it, and it uses real money. Silver Forex.

Buybacks are easy to use, but not all companies can use them.

For example, Fu Sheng spent a huge sum of 5 billion in the early years to buy 40% of Hong Kong Electric Group's shares at a price 35% higher than the market price. In addition to its rapid expansion in recent years, it borrowed large amounts of loans. , with liabilities as high as HK$15 billion.

Now that real estate is declining, Fu Sheng is already overwhelmed.

The newspaper compiled a table of the debt ratios of the listed companies under Micro Industrial and Fusheng Group. If you compare the two, Fusheng is a bit miserable.

Why is this happening?

If Fu Sheng had to say it, it was all because of Lin Wei.

The situation has changed. Chinese businessmen have been rising since the late 1960s and are becoming more and more powerful. If Fusheng waits where it is, it will only be embezzled.

So they expanded non-stop, but they didn't expect that there would be such a big hole waiting for them.

There have been suggestions to abandon Xiangjiang and transfer Fu Sheng back to the UK, but this was opposed by the management headed by Mrs. Eaton.

The debt is only temporary. As before, as long as he survives this period, Fu Sheng will regain his health.

But the problem is that Fusheng can no longer borrow money to tide over the difficulties, and the only way now is to sell existing assets.

But as soon as they had this plan, they received a letter from Lin Wei

. Hutchison Whampoa was interested in acquiring Hong Kong Electric Group.

The asking price... 2 billion.
