Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 634

Yang Xiaole took Hua Yourong out to play for the whole morning and forgot all the company's affairs.

There aren't many places for him to play in Hong Kong Island now.

We played around in the amusement park and then played at the beach for a while.

I had something to eat outside at noon and drove back to Central in the afternoon.

Hua Yourong was driving the car, and Yang Xiaole was holding the newspaper he had just bought.

It’s great to have your own newspaper!

As long as you don’t care about the cost, you can print and send it at any time.

But this newspaper is not losing money. On the contrary, it makes more money than any other newspaper.

Now that there is no Internet, newspapers, an important source of information, are naturally needed by every household.

Moreover, many people in Hong Kong have the habit of reading newspapers.

The advertising fees are enough to cover the expenses.

Hua Yourong was driving the car and said with a smile: "You know someone at the electric company, they don't dare to cut off the power supply to Hong Kong Island!"

There are two power plants in Hong Kong Island.

One is Hong Kong Electric, which is responsible for the power supply to the island in Central and nearby islands.

The other is responsible for Kowloon, the New Territories and other islands.

The power supply system is very stable.

Yang Xiaole put away the newspaper and said with a smile: "I don't know them! They are all from Yingzi Company, how could I know them?"

"So what are you going to do?"

Hua Yourong was curious for a moment.

She really didn't know how to do it.

Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "It's nothing! You'll know in a moment."

So much time has passed that these people have forgotten their scars.

Drive back to Central.

Instead of returning to the company building, he went directly to the reclaimed land in Wan Chai.

The car stopped at the entrance of the construction site and the two got out.

A foreigner came over angrily and complained to Hua Yourong in English.

Hua Yourong was communicating there.

It took a long time before he was finally calmed down.

Without entering the construction site, he said to Yang Xiaole: "The electric light company said that due to the tight power supply in Hong Kong Island, our construction site will be suspended for a period of time. We will be notified when the work will resume."

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly after hearing this: "Go and call the Hong Kong government. It will take half an hour to get through. And don't play those tricks in the future."

Hua Yourong looked strange: "Is it useful?"

Will people listen to you?

Yang Xiaole shook his head: "Just go and tell them. It's still early now, just half an hour. If you miss the time, you will be responsible for it yourself."

"Aren't you offending people by doing this?"

"Just go if you're told to! I told you, if I have a way, I have a way!"

He still doesn't listen. If it were Huang Qiujing, she would definitely do what I said.

But come to think of it, Huang Qiujing actually knows more details.

Hua Yourong is a businessman now after all.

However, looking at Yang Xiaole's calm expression, he thought about it and decided to do as he said and go to a nearby phone booth to make a call.

After a while, she came back and said, "I have called the Hong Kong government, and they directly replied that they can't do anything about Hong Kong Electric. Moreover, the news in the newspaper today that there may be a large-scale power outage in Hong Kong Island has damaged the reputation of Hong Kong Electric. They are going to sue our newspaper and make us pay compensation!"

Yang Xiaole raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh, what will happen in reality? What is there to pay for? Well, since they don't care, then you call our own company and shut down the equipment in advance and cut off the power at 2 o'clock! By the way, where is their power station?"

"Not far from our company, North Point Power Plant!"

"North Point? OK, I get it. Go ahead and make the call! By the way, let mom cook at home and we'll go home for dinner tonight."

Now that I'm here, I must meet you.

Seeing this, Hua Yourong agreed.

Watching Yang Xiaole struggling there.

She felt that Yang Xiaole had his own way, and he was not going to really cut off the power supply to the entire Hong Kong Island as he said.

If everything really stops, the impact will be huge.

Thinking of this, she called her company and home.

Yang Xiaole drove away.

The place is very close, only a few kilometers away from their company's building.

We arrived at the place in a short while.

After all, the island on the Central side is not very big, so the power plant naturally doesn’t need to be that big.

The factory building covering an area of ​​more than 10,000 square meters is sufficient for temporary use.

In addition, HK Electric has built a new power plant on Lamma Island, which is expected to be put into operation in the next two years, and its power supply capacity will be even stronger at that time.

The power plant has several generators. If one breaks down, the others can still operate safely and ensure electricity supply on the island.

Look at the time.

After a while, seeing that the time was up, we went straight into the power plant.

He didn't do anything too extreme.

They just dismantled the important parts of several generators and collected the spare equipment in the warehouse.

……

At this time, many people in Hong Kong were sneering at the news about the power outage in the newspaper.

Large-scale power outage?
How can it be!

It hasn't appeared in so many years.

The family was watching TV when suddenly the set went dark.

At the same time, except for the islands in Kowloon, all the companies in Hong Kong Island had their electricity cut off.

Suddenly, the island became chaotic.

No, this is Central, the financial center of Hong Kong Island. All major companies and corporate headquarters are located here.

There are also many factories here.

The elevator is out of service.

The stock market has stopped because the stocks here are connected to the United States and need to be operated by machines.

Only the telephone can still make calls because it is not in the same circuit as ordinary electricity.

……

Hua Yourong was waiting in the car.

Suddenly, I saw a commotion in the building not far away, and someone was coming down.

She wondered for a moment.

After asking around, there was shock in his eyes.

I quickly got in the car and drove around the neighborhood.

At this point he had confirmed that there was indeed a power outage, and it was a large-scale power outage.

At this time, the phone of Hong Kong Electric Company was flooded with calls.

(The telephone and ordinary electricity are not on the same line, a little weak electricity can make a call!)

……

"Where did you go?"

Yang Xiaole watched the car stop, and asked with a smile to Hua Yourong who opened the window and was a little surprised.

Hua Yourong hasn't come back to her senses yet.

He frowned and said, "You've made this a big deal!"

Yang Xiaole shrugged: "It's okay! Ignore them! Let them come to us! Let's go home!"

After saying that, he got in the car.

Seeing this, Hua Yourong drove him towards Kowloon.

Hua Yourong kept asking questions along the way.

Yang Xiaole said: "Don't ask about the specifics. You just need to know that your man is still capable. Don't be afraid of anything."

I have already given these people a lot of face. The main reason is that I am not here often, and I will still need these people to run the business here in the future.

In fact, the important reason is the money coming in from the mainland.

Let the people in Hong Kong know that their company has connections with the mainland, and it is normal for them to be suppressed by foreigners.

Nowadays, if a slightly larger company wants to help the mainland, it dare not say it openly.

All of them are done privately through their own channels.

Old Huo was persecuted, and whenever he was invited to the square, he would go to Australia secretly and then go through the mainland.

After I went there, I only met a few people.

I came back secretly.

Others didn't even dare to show their heads.

They had no choice. The amount of money flowing was so huge that it would naturally be discovered by someone with ulterior motives.

Hua Yourong looked at his indifferent expression and said worriedly, "But, if we do this, won't we just fall out?"

Yang Xiaole shook his head: "No! Have you forgotten where this place is? The reason why they only dare to do some small tricks is because these things cannot be put on the table. They dare not. If the business atmosphere here is destroyed, who would dare to come here to do business?

We are operating legally, so we are not afraid of them.”

In fact, this incident may have nothing to do with the Hong Kong government, because the Hong Kong government really cannot control so many Yingzi companies.

In Hong Kong Island, you can do anything as long as it is not illegal.

It is not uncommon for those capitalists to not give face to some supervisor.

Of course, this situation basically does not happen, and win-win cooperation is the kingly way.

Hua Yourong was still a little worried when she heard this.

……

At this time, the situation at Hong Kong Electric Company was in chaos.

The entire Hong Kong Island where Central is located has a power outage!

What a big deal this is.

Power outages mean losses, and businesses and factories may have to pay for the losses caused by power outages.

Even if a power outage is necessary, advance notice is required.

Otherwise, the company’s losses can be compensated through legal means.

That's okay.

The foreign senior executives of HK Electric were so angry that they threw documents.

The power company seems to be unknown and not very famous.

But being able to build a power plant in Hong Kong Island for 80 years and provide stable power supply to Hong Kong Island is not something that ordinary capital can do.

After all, water, electricity and coal are all projects related to people's livelihood.

Fortunately, the power plant has a small backup generator, otherwise even the office would be dark.

That would be even more ridiculous.

The phone kept ringing and people kept coming to report.

……

"Oh, damn, Mr. Zhao, what is going on? I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation."

The foreigner was questioning a Chinese man in the office.

Zhao Jinyu wiped the sweat off his head and said to the foreigner, "Mr. Peter, this may have something to do with Jardine Matheson?"

Does this make foreigners frown?

"go on!"

The Chinese understood the Chinese best. He took out a newspaper and said, "Our company has stopped using electricity for a project of Yang's Real Estate. In the morning, there was one version of the newspaper, but at noon, they directly published this version..."

Let me tell you the general situation.

Then he said: "This is not a coincidence. This newspaper is actually a warning! It's a pity that we didn't pay attention to it."

The foreign devil was so angry: "Shit! Damn it, this is man-made sabotage, I will make them pay the price!"

Zhao Jinyu thought for a moment and said, "But... we don't have any evidence! The newspaper also inferred that there might be a power outage based on the power outage of their project. We don't have any evidence to prove that they sabotaged it."

Here, evidence is needed.

Without any evidence, it is of no use.

There is no point in suing.

"Damn it! Then tell me, what should we do? The board of directors will not let us off tomorrow."

Zhao Jinyu thought for a moment and said, "Let's repair it first and see if we can get money to have China Power provide us with backup equipment to supply electricity first. We can work out the other bills later."

It has been confirmed that this was man-made, but the reason cannot be found.

Frustrated!
If it was really done by Yang Real Estate, it would be too cruel.

There is a power outage across the entire Hong Kong Island.

However, the idea of ​​borrowing equipment was ruthlessly extinguished.

There are two power companies in Hong Kong Island, which belong to two old-established Yingzi enterprises. How could they miss such a good opportunity to occupy the market?

……

Yang Xiaole and his group drove to the villa.

Su Ling was out with her child, and only the nanny Zhang Ma was in the villa.

Hua Yourong dropped her bag and said to Yang Xiaole, "Wait a moment, I'll call our company's legal department and ask them to bring someone over."

Yang Xiaole raised his eyebrows: "Why let them come over?"

"Of course we have to deal with this matter! If they send people from the Hong Kong government over, we will let the Ministry of Justice talk to them. There is no evidence anyway."

As he spoke, he made a phone call.

Yang Xiaole sat there quietly.

Let her make the call.

It would be a miracle if we could find him!
……

After the island experienced a power outage, ordinary people were not greatly affected. The ones who were anxious were the company's senior executives and factory managers.

I don’t know how much equipment was damaged during this power outage.

This does not include the losses caused by shutdown.

As senior executives realized that the power plant could not be repaired in the short term, they began to recruit people.

……

Sure enough, it was just as Hua Yourong said.

Before Su Ling came back, people from the Hong Kong government had already arrived here.

However, someone from the legal department who arrived not long ago was contacted to resolve the matter.

Without evidence, it's useless even if we know he did it.

White is not acceptable.

Then let’s do it in a black way.

These people remembered the club, which had not been used much at this time.

These consortiums do not deal with these people, but there are people who deal with these consortiums.

But after knowing whose company this was and the address of the villa.

Several top-level societies have all fallen silent.

Those foreign devils are really not human.

Others don’t know much about the devil’s affairs, but Qingqing Chuchu personally experienced what happened a few years ago in those top societies.

How dare you cause trouble for Yang Xiaole!
They were afraid that this guy would cause trouble for them.

……

Yang Xiaole didn't realize at this time that because of his affairs, many people were already in chaos.

At this time, listening to what Hua Yourong said.

Then he asked, “Are you saying that Jardine Matheson is behind HK Electric?”

Hua Yourong nodded gently: "Yes, the controlling stake of HK Electric is in the hands of Hong Kong Land Group, which is an important company under the Jardine Matheson Group. The Keswick family is behind it, and CLP is controlled by the Kadoorie family."

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly after hearing this: "No matter what, they are not good things."

He knew that Yihe had made his fortune by selling longevity cream.

The same goes for the other one.
