The initiative is now in the other party's hands, so what can he say when faced with a threat?
With a sigh, the Governor knew that from this day forward...
His only task here is to cooperate with Gao Ren's actions, and Gao Ren to cooperate with him to make money!
As for other matters, he neither can nor has the ability to manage them!
"I agree to this request!"
"I will not interfere with anything Mr. Gao does in Hong Kong Island from now on!"
"I will also sever all ties with the Song family and Huo Zhaotang!"
When Mayor Li heard this, he knew the truth of the matter was unlikely.
But that didn't stop the smile from creeping into his tone; after all, saying those words already meant he was admitting defeat.
And for someone who has already considered giving up... how long will it be before they truly give up?
"Governor, I hope you remember what you said!"
"Don't worry, Mayor Li,"
"I'm just stubborn, not stupid!"
In the very moment the Governor of Hong Kong conceded defeat, the news that the North was about to attack, incited by Lok Wai-ching, had become a subconscious belief for everyone.
The consequence of this is stock market volatility!
Central, Fok Bank, Chairman's Office!
Huo Zhaotang looked at the stocks on his computer screen, all of which had turned green, and couldn't help but smile.
Hahahaha!
"Whoever orchestrated this assassination, I really have to thank their whole family!"
"I was worried about how to disrupt the stock market, but before I could even do anything, someone else did it for me!"
Hahahaha!
"As long as I seize this opportunity and buy up those quality stocks at rock-bottom prices..."
"Then I, Huo Zhaotang, will be the god of Hong Kong from now on!"
"A god whose word is law!"
After a burst of excited roaring, Huo Zhaotang immediately picked up the phone and said,
"Pass the word: from this moment forward, everyone in the stock department must be in front of their computers watching the stocks assigned to them!"
"Eating, drinking, relieving myself, and sleeping are all done at my workstation!"
"If you can hold on for these few days, I'll give you ten times your salary and ten times your bonus!"
"yes!"
Following Huo Zhaotang's order, his stock managers began a buying frenzy...
With the financial support of Fok Bank, the largest private bank on Hong Kong Island,
These stock managers showed no mercy in buying up quality stocks, with each purchase involving at least one million dollars...
And every ten minutes, someone would run in to report to Huo Zhaotang.
"Mr. Huo, Manager Zhao has purchased one million shares of Wang's Heavy Industry!"
"Mr. Huo, Manager Liu has purchased one million shares of Tomorrow Mall!"
"......"
Upon hearing that his managers had purchased shares in over twenty high-quality companies within just ten minutes, Huo Zhaotang couldn't help but burst into wild laughter.
His maniacal laughter left his secretary standing nearby in a state of unease.
Normally, if Huo Zhaotang saw someone around him with this expression, he would either hit or scold them.
He believed that doing so would bring him bad luck.
But now, in a great mood, he took the initiative to speak.
"Tell me, what's wrong with you?"
The secretary looked slightly surprised upon hearing this.
"Mr. Huo, what gives you the confidence to buy up stocks on such a large scale, given the high probability that the north will take action ahead of schedule?"
"If the north makes a move first and then attacks,"
"Won't all the stocks you bought become worthless then?!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Zhaotang's laughter grew even louder.
"Do you know why I'm the chairman and you can only be the secretary?!"
"Please enlighten me, Mr. Huo!"
"I'm asking you, why is the North so determined to take back this place!"
After a moment of silence, the secretary said...
"Because this place can bring huge economic benefits to the north!"
"If it weren't for this reason, they wouldn't be investing so heavily in Guangzhou!"
Upon hearing this answer, Huo Zhaotang's face showed a satisfied expression.
If the secretary's answer wasn't this, then he could pack his things and leave.
“You’re right,”
"Although the place we are in is not large, it is nothing compared to the vast area to the north!"
"But if we're talking about the economy, which of the northern cities can rival Hong Kong Island?"
"Then tell me, will they attack from the north again?"
The secretary's eyes lit up instantly upon hearing this.
yes!
Hong Kong Island is a small place and doesn't have many mineral resources.
What else could the north possibly be interested in besides its economic potential?
"Mr. Huo, are you implying that Gao Ren orchestrated the assassination of Myna?"
"Is it all for the same purpose as you?"
Huo Zhaotang nodded and said,
"That's right!"
"Who are Gao Ren's bodyguards?"
"How could they not detect such a low-level assassination attempt?"
"If he hadn't discovered it, Gao Ren would have died countless times by now!"
After putting on a show, Huo Zhaotang turned to his secretary and said...
"Spread the word: from now on, the interest rate for money deposited in Huo's Bank will increase by another three percent!"
"At the same time, Huo's Bank guarantees the safety of everyone's funds!"
"If any unforeseen circumstances occur, Huo's Bank will return three times the principal plus interest!"
The secretary knew that Fok Siu-tong was using the savings of all ordinary people in Hong Kong to exploit the entire Hong Kong stock market.
To put it more bluntly.
It means using other people's money to buy other people's stocks.
