Chapter 724: Senlian’s first enclave! A trillion-dollar empire arrives in Hong Kong. Can Hong Kong stocks catch up?
Chen Yansen turned slowly and his eyes fell on the other person.
The other person was in her early twenties, with a melon-shaped face the size of a palm. She looked heroic with a hint of masculinity. She was wearing a Chanel autumn limited edition long skirt, which was white with a hint of goose yellow, like a blooming gardenia.
He really didn't expect it. He thought the Huo family enthusiastically invited him to the cocktail party to discuss business, but Huo Yingting only showed up once and pushed his youngest daughter in front of him.
In Chen Yansen's impression, there is no such person in the Huo family.
But he changed his mind and figured out the reason. It was simply to protect privacy and personal safety.
Just like after Li Zekai was kidnapped, he immediately changed his daughter's name to Li Yanning to prevent outsiders from finding out the details.
"I'm wondering, in a place where the GDP per capita is only $500, what can be done to raise the average to $10,000?"
Chen Yansen said slowly.
"It depends on the total population of that place. The larger the population, the more difficult it is, and there must be pillar industries.
In addition, universal education, industrial development, and the promotion of science and technology are all essential. We must first transition from agriculture to light industry, and then to heavy industry and high-value-added industries. This will take at least twenty years."
Huo Tongwen held the champagne glass and thought seriously for a moment before answering.
Twenty years?
Too slow!
Twenty years? Too slow! Chen Yansen smiled lightly and said casually, "The transition from agriculture to light industry and then to heavy industry you mentioned is an old path from the industrial age. But now is the era of the digital economy, and some advantages can be obtained in a leapfrog manner."
Huo Tongwen disagreed with this. She raised her heroic eyebrows slightly and was about to refute, but then she remembered her father's advice. So she immediately restrained her expression, smiled gently, and superficially agreed with Chen Yansen's point of view.
In fact, she is not opposed to contacting Chen Yansen. After all, looking around the world, Chen Yansen is also one of the top businessmen.
As for the fact that Chen Yansen has a girlfriend, she didn't care at all.
In Hong Kong Island, which man with a net worth of over 100 million does not have three wives and four concubines?
The only difference is whether it is public or not.
Chen Yansen casually responded with a few words and walked towards the center of the cocktail party.
You have to know that the opportunity to spend these three minutes with Huo Tongwen was gained by the Huo family's promise to allocate more resources to the port and shipping business.
In fact, he didn't have any feelings for Huo Tongwen. Although she was beautiful, she always looked masculine. He didn't have any weird habits.
When the other young people at the party saw Chen Yansen leaving Huo Tongwen, they all secretly rejoiced.
"Let me tell you, Huo Tongwen has no breasts and no butt, how could Chen Yansen possibly be interested in her? The Huo family must have made a wrong calculation this time."
"She does have a good figure, but she's just not plump enough. The Huo family wants to rely on Chen Yansen to drive the family's transformation, but how can it be that simple?"
"Lorinda, why don't you go over and try?"
He Chaolian listened to her friends' whispered jokes, quietly straightened her chest, raised her foot and moved towards Chen Yansen.
In her eyes, Chen Yansen, who is 1.86 meters tall and handsome, is exactly her favorite type.
In addition, the nose bridge is straight and must be big.
But when she was halfway there, she saw Huo Yingting pulling Chen Yansen towards the more core circle of wealthy businessmen.
Seeing this, she hurriedly stopped and turned back angrily.
Although the He family's influence and financial resources in Ao Island are not bad, with her status, she really can't move forward. Firstly, she is not qualified, and secondly, it is easy to give people a bad impression of being uneducated and ignorant of etiquette.
"Mr. Chen, I heard you like to drink tea? I have a few cans of good tea in my study. Shall we go upstairs and talk?"
Huo Yingting said with a smile.
He knew that Sunlink Capital had invested heavily in East Africa and was in urgent need of support in shipping and ports.
The last time Chen Yansen came to Hong Kong Island, he made a special visit to the Bao family. He already knew this.
"Then I won't be polite."
Chen Yansen readily agreed, and then walked into the elevator with Huo Yingting and headed towards the study.
…
…
Asbeba.
In a detached villa in the city center, Behannu leaned against the sofa, holding a glass of wine in his hand, sipping it slowly and looking at the wall clock from time to time.
A quarter past one!
According to the plan, Mehari has already taken action at this moment.
Tomorrow we will put the blame on Dajim, and after we kill him, we will send him directly to Leggi.
In this way, not only can the Omoros be won over, but the power of the Tirege can also be weakened.
A snake cannot survive without a head, and a bird cannot fly without wings.
Without the leading person in charge, the remaining Tireg executives can be bribed with just money.
Thinking of this, Behannu raised the corner of his mouth and revealed a smug smile.
At this moment, hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the villa, accompanied by a few panicked shouts, breaking the tranquility of the night.
Behannu's face darkened and he turned around suddenly. Just as he was about to open his mouth to scold, the door of the villa was kicked open and a subordinate covered in blood staggered in and fell heavily to the ground.
"Boss, Mehari," the subordinate said in a trembling voice, covering the wound on his chest.
With a "bang"!
The bullet pierced his head, and red and white liquid splattered everywhere.
The soldiers standing behind Behannu subconsciously reached for their guns, but saw a large crowd of people coming in, all armed with machine guns or submachine guns.
And the person leading the group was actually Mehari!
"Put your gun down! I've got snipers outside, anyone who dares to move will be killed!"
Mehari narrowed his eyes and warned with a smile.
"Mehari, what do you want to do? You are rebelling!"
Behanu was not stupid. He saw through Mehari's intention in an instant and questioned him harshly.
"Boss, you are old and it is time for you to enjoy your retirement. Please hand over your position to me. I will lead the Hamra people to regain their glory."
Mehari's tone was still respectful as usual, but the expression on his face was full of ferocity.
Behanu's pupils suddenly contracted, and his fingers reached for the pistol at his waist, but as soon as he touched the gun, Mehari's men pointed the gun at the back of his head.
The touch of the cold metal made him stiffen all over. The dignity he had accumulated over the years in Asbeba disappeared at this moment.
He suppressed his shock and anger, stared at Mehari, and asked, "I treated you well and even let you take charge of the armed forces of the Hamra people. How dare you betray me?"
Mehari slowly walked up to Behannu, squatted down, patted his cheek with his hand, and said sarcastically: "It doesn't matter who you work for. Since you are selling yourself anyway, why not sell yourself for a higher price?"
"What Dajim can give you, can't I give you?"
Behannu asked back.
"Dajim? He's nothing!"
Mehari laughed heartily. He knew that Behannu had misunderstood, but he was too lazy to explain. He raised his hand and waved, and two people immediately stepped forward and held Behannu firmly under control.
Then, someone took out a syringe, and the sharp needle shone with a cool luster under the light.
Seeing this, Behannu couldn't stop shaking. Although he didn't know what the liquid in the syringe was, he also understood that after this injection, he would probably never see the sun tomorrow.
He looked at the needle that shone with a cold light, and made a hoarse plea in his throat: "Mehari, you can't kill me! As long as you let me go, I can give you all my property, and I can also help you convince others to recognize your legal status!"
Mehari just sneered, his eyes full of disdain: "Even if I kill you, these things will still be mine! Why do I need your help? If you are alive, you will only be a hidden danger to me. Only when you die can I take full control of the power."
After saying this, he winked at his subordinate holding the syringe.
The man immediately stepped forward, grabbed Behanu's arm, and pointed the needle at his vein.
Behannu struggled desperately, but no matter how he twisted his body, his body did not move at all. He could only watch as the unknown liquid was slowly pushed into his blood vessels.
“Ho ho ho—!”
In just one minute, the drug took effect.
Behannu was like a fish stranded on the riverbank, opening his mouth wide and trying desperately to breathe, but still suffocated as if the oxygen had been sucked away.
His body twitched violently and his eyeballs rolled upwards, revealing large areas of pale white.
He wanted to reach out and grab the table leg beside him for support, but his fingers had only stretched out less than ten centimeters before they fell down weakly.
The "ho ho" sound in his throat became weaker and weaker, the rise and fall of his chest gradually slowed down, and finally there was no movement at all, and his face turned purple and blue.
"nailed it?"
A cold voice came from outside the house.
Then, a man with a scar on his forehead and wearing camouflage uniform walked in and asked Mehari.
"all the best!"
Mehari grinned and breathed a sigh of relief, looking relieved.
Leggi nodded, and was relieved to see that Mehari had not made any mistakes.
He pushed his right hand outward, and the sniper hiding in the dark immediately adjusted the direction of the gun.
The next morning.
Leggi announced Behanu's death and Dagim's "crime" of planning to attack foreign businessmen.
The winner always has the final say, since the dead can't speak anyway.
Leggi successfully took the position of head of Abyssinia and became the first Omoro to hold real power.
As soon as the news came out, the middle and lower classes of the Hamra tribe became worried, fearing that Legji would take the opportunity to launch a large-scale purge and retaliate against the Hamra tribe.
But the result surprised people at home and abroad. Leggi, who was an armed leader, not only did not do anything out of line, but instead held a grand funeral for Behannu.
On the day of the funeral, he also delivered a speech, declaring his willingness to put aside the past conflicts between the two ethnic groups, treat everyone equally, and jointly build Abyssinia.
Afterwards, information platforms such as Mimo, Douyin, Kuaishou and Toutiao also reposted Behannu's obituary to express their condolences.
Leggi’s speech was also uploaded to the Mimo platform. In the video, he made an impassioned speech: “My fellow Abyssinians, my brothers and sisters on this ancient and glorious land!
Today, I stand here with a heart full of infinite hope for the future. We have a brilliant culture, magnificent mountains and rivers, and the bravest and wisest people in the world.
But we must also admit that the thorns woven by suspicion, division and ethnic conflicts have more than once hindered our progress towards prosperity.
Now, it's time to make a change!
The courage of the Omoros, the wisdom of the Hamra, the tenacity of the Tiregs, the heroism of the Somalians, and the strength of all ethnic groups will come together. We are one family, and I never want to see any more bloodshed.
Therefore, I solemnly call on you to put aside your differences and focus on a greater and more urgent task: promoting economic development and achieving common prosperity.
To achieve this goal, I am announcing the following immediate actions:
First, launch the National Economic Revitalization Compact.
We will dedicate all our efforts to investing in infrastructure connecting the provinces, including roads, railways and energy networks, so that goods, services and opportunities can flow freely to every corner of Abyssinia, and remote villages and prosperous cities can share the fruits of development.
Second, to build a fair Abyssinia.
We will advance institutional reforms to ensure that every citizen, regardless of their ethnicity or region, can succeed through their own talents and hard work in a fair competitive environment, and that the doors to education, employment, and business opportunities will be open to everyone.
Third, establish an ethnic harmony and economic development association.
We will establish a top business association composed of representatives of all ethnic groups, entrepreneurs and scholars to ensure that the voices of every group are heard in the formulation and implementation of development policies and achieve truly inclusive growth.
Ladies and gentlemen, the world economic landscape is changing rapidly, and the window of opportunity will not always be open. When we are caught in endless battles, we are also missing the most precious opportunities.
Put down your weapons! Let our children have food to eat and education to attend. This is our common mission!
The implication is that from now on everything will be about money, with making money being the main focus.
Although Leggi spoke sincerely, few people truly believed him.
Not to mention that Europe and the United States had doubts about this statement, even Eritrea, which was once a part of Abyssinia, did not dare to believe his words.
From the outside, it seems that these armed leaders in Abyssinia only know how to kill people and have no idea about economic development!
The inaugural speech sounded like empty talk, no different from a fart.
Leggi's words sound better than singing, but how can his actions show that he is truly interested in developing the economy?
As soon as Behanu died, he was eager to seize power, and now he suddenly put forward these policies. I am afraid there are other intentions behind it. It is not that simple.
at the same time.
Chen Yansen, who was far away in Hong Kong Island, felt relieved. For him, Sunlink Capital finally had an enclave overseas.
It is a bit poor, but the advantage is that there is enough room for growth.
That night, as Victoria Harbour was in full bloom, local reporters secretly captured the scene of Chen Yansen strolling side by side with Zhou Shouzhi, Cao Dahua, Wang Teng, Yan Peng and others.
The headline given by Hong Kong media is: "Orange is coming, challenging the throne of Penguin Stock King! The relaxation of the world's richest man!"
"A giant knocks on the door! A trillion-dollar empire arrives in Hong Kong. Can the Hong Kong stock market handle it?"
"Water from the north to the south is being diverted, with the Orange giant leading the way, and Hong Kong Island is welcoming a new wave of money!"
