God-level Trader of Rebirth

Chapter 5 Before the storm

The third uncle was elated, and told Chen Weidong that he didn't care about other people's opinions at all.

Just get the money.

Now all he can think about is how to spend the billion.

As for the 300 million usury owed, in Cantonese, it means "sprinkle water."

Chen Weidong smiled wryly, feeling helpless against the funny look of the third uncle.

At this moment, Lin Zeju asked curiously:
"Mr. Chen, I would like to ask you, how are you going to spend the one billion yuan? Why don't you buy the shares of our Huanghe Industrial Company?"

After hearing this, Chen Weidong didn't immediately agree.

Many people in Huanghe Industry are familiar with this company.

Relying on it, Lin Jiacheng became the richest man in Hong Kong in one fell swoop. Since 1999, he has also become the richest man in China, and has been in office for 15 consecutive years.

This is mainly due to Lin Jiacheng's excellent operational ability and the rapid growth of the profitability of Huanghe Industry.

In 1999, the after-tax profit of Huanghe Industrial Group reached 1850 billion Hong Kong dollars.

In 2000, the total market value of Huanghe Industrial Group was approximately HK$8120 billion.

In an era when the per capita monthly income in this continent was only a few hundred yuan, it was simply astronomical, enough to make anyone feel numb.

There are too many halos on him.

From a poor boy from a poor family, he became the richest man in China.

Even Xiangjiang people were amazed at his achievements and gave him the nickname "Superman Lin".

In the original time and space.

After Lin Jiacheng handed over the one billion ransom to Zhang Ziqiang, he once advised him to buy the stock of Huanghe Industrial, which was enough to ensure that he would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.

To this, Zhang Ziqiang only replied two words.

"Ha ha."

Chen Weidong is not a reckless man like Zhang Ziqiang, he thought for a moment and replied:
"I am very optimistic about the future of Huanghe Industry, and believe that its stock price will double several times in the near future, but I don't think now is a good time to buy."

"Oh?"

Lin Jiacheng and his son looked at each other with puzzled expressions on their faces. This was the first time they had heard such an answer.

Chen Weidong did not explain this question, but instead asked Lin Jiacheng, saying:
"Mr. Lin, do you think there is a risk of an economic crisis in Xiangjiang's current economic situation?"

"how can that be!?"

Lin Zeju on the side blurted out.

In his opinion, now a large amount of foreign capital is pouring into Xiangjiang, which has promoted the rapid growth of Xiangjiang's manufacturing exports, and the economic situation is very good.

It is impossible for an economic crisis to erupt.

Seeing that the other party didn't believe it at all, Chen Weidong didn't explain too much, he smiled and said:

"This is just my personal guess. If I'm wrong, everyone has the right to laugh it off."

Completely different from Mr. Lin, Lin Jiacheng did not rush to deny it.

When he heard the word economic crisis, his eyes lit up.

Others may be afraid, but he is not.

Because since the 50s, Lin Jiacheng has experienced three economic crises.

It can even be said unceremoniously that the reason why he was able to start a business, apart from his own strong business ability, was that he really relied on the economic crisis, constantly buying bottoms, acquisitions and reorganizations, and became a rich man.

Risk means the birth of opportunity.

But he also couldn't figure it out.

At present, the economy of Xiangjiang, and even the whole of Southeast Asia, is showing a trend of vigorous development.

In particular, Thailand next door, relying on manufacturing exports, has a per capita income of more than 2500 US dollars, and the World Bank has listed it as a middle-income country.

There is a saying that, under the rapid economic growth, it is enough to cover up all the contradictions.

In such a big environment, how can there be a risk of economic crisis?

Lin Jiacheng was puzzled.

If Chen Weidong knew what he was thinking, he would definitely tell him that this is called the limitation of the times.

Even Lin Jiacheng, the richest person, would not notice too much before the wolf knocked on the door.

What's more, this financial turmoil without gunpowder was completely designed by Western capital giants specially for East Asian and Southeast Asian countries.

The purpose is to plunder decades of development achievements in the Asia-Pacific region.

Chen Weidong is very clear.

It's 1996 now.

We are still a year away from the economic crisis.

Saying this now will only make people feel alarmist.

So, next, he intentionally changed the subject.

Next.

Several people exchanged some business views.

Chen Weidong, a reborn man, takes advantage of his foresight information and naturally has unique insights into the development of future trends.

After talking with eloquence, Lin Jiacheng benefited a lot even if it was a little superficial.

I sighed even more in my heart, the mainland is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.

Only the young man in front of him is so powerful.

It seems that I still have to learn one more.

Talking about the conversation between Zhang Ziqiang and Chen Weidong in the living room, Lin Jiacheng couldn't help saying with great interest:

"Mr. Chen, I saw you tell Zhang Ziqiang on the surveillance that there are many industries that make money faster than gambling. Is this true?"

Chen Weidong did not expect that Lin Jiacheng would suddenly ask this, and pretended to be surprised:
"Ah, isn't Mr. Lin already doing it?"

Lin Jiacheng was taken aback for a moment, then looked at each other and smiled.

it is more than words.

time flies.

Seeing that the sky is bright outside.

Chen Weidong declined Lin Jiacheng's private car pick-up, and left the mansion on the mountainside with his third uncle.

It was already past six o'clock in the morning when we came out.

I took a taxi and returned to my residence in Kowloon not long after.

I'm so tired.

The two fell asleep, completely unaware of what happened outside.

seven in the morning.

Many people in Hong Kong are already busy.

Whether it's the white-collar workers in the office building or the hawkers killing fish in the vegetable market, they all discuss the same thing when they get together.

"The son of the richest man in Xiangjiang was kidnapped, and the "robber of the century" Zhang Ziqiang was arrested!"

There are even rumors that the kidnappers extorted 10 billion in cash at the time, and Lin Jiacheng had already prepared the money, but for some reason, he was suddenly arrested.

With such a huge number, it is definitely the largest kidnapping case ever.

Many young people who don't want to work hard can't help crying when they hear the one billion ransom: "Why isn't my dad Lin Jiacheng!"

Numerous media reported this explosive news.

The world was in an uproar.

Who would have thought.

The son of the richest man can be easily kidnapped in broad daylight, let alone ordinary people.

Can Hong Kong's law and order still be trusted?
on TV.

Lin Jiacheng is being interviewed by news media from all walks of life. He said:

"It's my fault this time. Our family is so well-known in Xiangjiang, but we have no defense at all, which gave the gangsters an opportunity."

"For example, I drive to the New Territories to play golf by myself at five o'clock every morning. If a few cars come over and intercept me at this time, I will be powerless to fight back."

"It seems that I really need to review myself."

As soon as these words came out, many wealthy people in Xiangjiang were in danger, for fear that they would encounter desperadoes one day.

Therefore, many rich people do not hesitate to spend a lot of money to find powerful bodyguards, retired soldier kings and the like.

Indirectly, the private bodyguard market quickly became hot.

In the whole incident, the two key figures were naturally not exposed under Lin Jiacheng's deliberate protection.

The Hong Kong government is also happy to claim that it was the Xiangjiang police who received the insider information, arranged a plan in advance, and successfully arrested Zhang Ziqiang.

The director of the Xiangjiang Police Department also stood up and said that their police officers are of high quality, capable, and confident to protect the personal safety of the general public. Please don't worry.

Bandit leader Zhang Ziqiang.

In addition to the previous robberies, he was punished for several crimes, all property was confiscated, and he was sentenced to life imprisonment. (Xiangjiang law does not have the death penalty.)
In addition, the personnel related to this operation have also been promoted to varying degrees.

In this way, in a situation where everyone was barely happy, a near-miss kidnapping case of the century came to an end.

Even after many years, even if it has been a long time, it will often be brought up and become a topic that people in the market talk about.

And several important participants in this incident later became the most shining stars in the industry.
