Xing Baohua was just taking advantage of the situation to plunder, but such plundering was a one-off business and didn't earn him much money.
To stay in this line of work long-term, you have to play along with the local powerful figures and feed them every year.
They set up an energy company engaged in import and export trade, and then offered some shares to powerful relatives as investors.
This way, it can be done for a longer period of time.
Two years later, when Western countries come to Big Brother to invest capital, all that will be left is some scraps.
This company doesn't need to last long; Xing Baohua can just wait for Western capital to acquire it.
Moreover, there's no benefit to growing too big. Big Brother will always find a way to take back what it wants, so it's better to take advantage of the influx of Western capital and sell it off for cash.
Around 1 p.m., Xie Yingying walked up to Xing Baohua with her phone in hand: "Boss, Baron Rodman would like to invite you to afternoon tea at 3 p.m.
“Tell him I don’t have time. And for the next week, if Big Eagle calls, tell him I don’t have time. If he asks when I’m free, just say I don’t have time for the next month,” Xing Baohua said domineeringly.
"This... what if someone rudely asks what you're doing?" Xie Yingying asked. If Xing Baohua dared to say something so shameless, people would also shamelessly ask what this guy was busy with.
You say you're busy, but you always need an excuse. If you don't use any excuse, people won't be polite and will just ask you directly. Even if you're going to make up a reason, you need to come up with a plausible one.
Xing Baohua tilted his head back, thought for a moment, and said, "Just say that I've been studying currency and stock market trends recently. If they ask which specific stock markets, just say you don't know."
"You don't know?" Xie Yingying asked, surprised.
That's such an infuriating answer. As a secretary, it's acceptable to say she doesn't know, but anyone listening would know she said it on purpose.
If you use polite language, you can say "no comment," which implies that it involves trade secrets, and the other person understands that.
Xing Baohua's statement of not knowing is tantamount to slapping them in the face.
Baron Rodman invited Xing Baohua to be the representative of the old aristocracy in Hong Kong through the influence of the Governor of Hong Kong. He came to Xing Baohua simply to negotiate the gambling agreement, and he would stop after making money.
The Eagle Pound continues to fall. These old aristocrats can't change the market trend, but they can calculate how low the Eagle Pound will fall.
If the price does fall to their expected level, Xing Baohua will earn them over 20 billion US dollars.
This is something they cannot afford; they would have to sell off countless assets to pay over 20 billion US dollars.
Despite the substantial wealth of these established aristocratic families, their assets are primarily stocks and fixed assets. They dislike holding large amounts of cash. Whenever they have cash, they invest it in various sectors, converting it into shares or fixed assets.
Selling off assets is like cutting flesh from their bodies.
Xing Baohua has earned 10 billion yuan, which is equivalent to a 1:1 payout. Such an achievement is unprecedented in the world, and he is fully entitled to enjoy the honor.
There's no need to fight to the death with these old aristocrats. If Xing Baohua backs down, and the old aristocrats back down too, isn't Xing Baohua planning to buy the team? They could plead with him to let him buy one.
It's a matter of reciprocity, giving each other face.
But after receiving Xie Yingying's reply, Baron Rodman was so angry that he threw his phone away.
They scheduled their meetings with Xing Baohua for a month or more in advance, at which point the price of the pound sterling was still unknown.
The established investors felt they couldn't wait even a month, not a single day longer. With the price dropping by hundreds of points every day, it was their money that was being lost. Do you know how painful that is?
Since this little guy doesn't want to talk to them, then force him to talk.
These established aristocrats don't have the financial power of figures like Mr. Socrates or Mr. Buffett to attack Xing Baohua's companies in Hong Kong.
They're manipulative people. If Xing Baohua has any real businesses, then just ban them.
The Department of Commerce of Great Eagle issued a notice stating that, given the safety concerns of the Tianma brand sports car, a safety performance reassessment is required. Until the new results are available, the sale of this type of vehicle is prohibited throughout Great Eagle.
This means two things: if Xing Baohua meets with them, a new assessment will be released. If he continues to evade them, fine, then the sales ban will continue.
The most unfortunate one was the sweet girl from The Sun newspaper, who even bought a Tianma sports car to please Xing Baohua.
Now not only is she being sued, but the car she bought can no longer be driven on the road.
Would Xing Baohua care about the ban on sports cars being sold in Daying? They only sell a few cars a month, and the profit is barely enough to cover marketing expenses and workers' wages.
Whatever!
After waiting a week without seeing Xing Baohua showing any signs of impatience, they claimed that the rice-based mobile phones were unsafe and banned their sale within the territory of the Great Eagle.
Fortunately, it's not banned. If the rice phone were listed as a banned product, Xing Baohua would have had to give up this market.
Unfortunately, they used a sales ban, meaning the official sales channels were shut down.
Xing Baohua was overjoyed upon hearing the news.
He called his sister-in-law, Lu Yali, to ask how the market was going on his third brother's side. If there was no rush, he suggested sending a batch of goods to Europe as soon as possible.
First, send the goods to the Port of Rotterdam, the port with the largest throughput.
Sell this batch of goods to black market dealers in Windmill Country, since many things can be traded here.
The selling point of Dami phones is their advanced technology and performance; anyone who has used a Dami phone is used to the convenience of a full keyboard.
It's a hot commodity in every country. Although the quality and performance of the goods sold to India are significantly downgraded, the main selling point is that it's cheap.
The more the sale of eagles is restricted, the better the grey market sales become.
A shipment of goods from India is impacting the mobile phone market in the Eagle region.
