Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 917: There Are Many Talents
Huang Shitong quickly added, "It is certain that we will get closer to Chu Sheng, as this golden opportunity is right in front of us.

If I don’t catch it, Daddy, I will regret it for the rest of my life.

But people probably don't look down on the little money Daddy made in the stock market. So I have to think carefully about how to arouse Chu Sheng's interest."

Huang Huilin thought about it and nodded.

Huang Huilin didn't learn much from her father Huang Shitong since she was a child, but she had a deep obsession with speculation and making money.

If he wanted to gain Chu Xiangqian's appreciation, he should start with the plan of Hang Seng to set up a securities department.

He hurriedly said to Huang Shitong, "Dad, Chu Sheng only gave me one week, please help me find Uncle Xiang, Uncle Xian, Uncle Zhan, and Uncle Yun.

Once the plan is written, I will treat you to a whole deer feast at Youguqi in Yau Ma Tei."

Huang Shitong couldn't help but frown, and asked a few colleagues and friends to come and help his daughter write a plan.

Even if these guys knew that this task was personally assigned by Chu Xiangqian to his daughter, they would definitely come over to help without hesitation.

Although I usually give my daughter a lot of pocket money, if she wants to have a whole deer feast in a formal place, especially at an old restaurant in Yau Ma Tei, the cost will be at least two to three thousand yuan.

He hurriedly asked, "Then don't tell me that you secretly saved the money? Otherwise, I will have to pay for it in the end, right?"

Huang Huilin chuckled, knowing that her father suspected that she had been deceived by some rich young man.

Huang Shitong's frown deepened before he explained, "Mr. Chu heard that I wanted to ask you and a few uncles for help, so he specially approved 1 Hong Kong dollars for me as funding.

I will spend two to three thousand yuan to treat you, and I will still have 7 thousand left to buy a good car first, and the rest of the money to buy clothes and bags. "

Huang Shitong finally felt relieved, but he was still thinking that if Chu Xiangqian fell in love with his daughter, it would be a road to success for the Huang family.

So not only did he not object, but he smiled and said, "Forget it, treat Daddy and keep your money for yourself."

Huang Huilin chuckled again. She knew exactly what her father was thinking.

But if the target was Chu Xiangqian, Huang Huilin not only had no resistance in her heart, but became eager to make a move.
-
The father and daughter were talking about Chu Xiangqian, but they didn't know that Chu Xiangqian had made several phone calls.

Before long, not only Huang Shitong's information appeared in his hands, but even his photos.

Chu Xiangqian only took a few glances at the information and knew who Huang Shitong was.

The famous uncle Tong, and the landlord association centered around him that would dominate the financial industry in Hong Kong in the future.

These guys did contribute to Chinese capital after they rose to prominence in the 1970s and 1980s.

Because Hong Kong's finance was controlled by foreigners at that time, anyone who prevented them from making money would be considered an enemy.

Moreover, it is impossible for the foreigners to allow them to rise up and seize the market, so the landlords can only focus on those Chinese-funded enterprises that have prospects and need them.

By the way, they also go public to raise money. To a certain extent, they have contributed to the development of many Chinese-funded listed companies.

But in the first few years of the 80s, after the future of Hong Kong Island was determined, the foreigners' control over finance turned into a method of sucking the blood of Hong Kong Island by any means necessary.

A large amount of funds were withdrawn from Hong Kong Island to supplement Yingguo itself.

Now, the core conflict between the two is gone.

The landlords will naturally collude with the foreigners.

From then on, the nature of the landlords' association changed.

No, the landlords have never changed. People like Huang Shitong are, after all, hyenas for money.

From helping Chinese capital, they began to target Chinese capital.

Manipulating the stock of a listed company, behind-the-scenes transactions, eavesdropping and other methods are actually very common in later generations.

But in this era, commercial espionage is extremely rare, and eavesdropping is something only intelligence agencies do.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to access advanced equipment.

However, at this time, Huang Shitong was not yet recognized as the number one Chinese securities broker.

He was not even the initiator of the Landlord Association, but Sima Xian, who was as powerful as him.

In terms of profitability and efficiency, Sima Xian is actually far inferior to Huang Shitong.

The reason is very simple. When a stockbroker still has a sense of good and evil and loyalty in his heart, instead of pursuing wealth wholeheartedly, he is actually no longer a qualified stockbroker.

But from the perspective of his subordinates, if Chu Xiangqian was given a choice, he would definitely choose Sima Xian.

Sima Xian was framed and imprisoned. He knew that it was Huang Shitong and others who framed him, but he did not say a word in prison.

This kind of person is suitable to be a housekeeper.

Then ask him to keep an eye on Huang Shitong and other agents of the Landlord Association.

Chu Xiangqian thought about it, then picked up the phone again and called Huang Weixin, Attorney Huang.

The law firm has not only barristers but also senior accountants who have a deep understanding of securities firms, financial institutions and stockbrokers.

Half an hour later, when Chu Xiangqian appeared outside the Central Stock Exchange, Huang Weixin was waiting there in person.

After getting into Chu Xiangqian's car, he hurriedly took out a stack of documents from his briefcase.

Chu Xiangqian read the information of more than a dozen famous stock brokers.

Soon we saw Sima Xian, Chen Wanxian, Ma Zhuoqun and Chen Zhan, members of the Landlord Association.

Then I saw names like Huo Jingliang, Fang Jinxin, and Ye Tian.

In fact, just by looking at the names, Chu Xiangqian only remembered a few of these people.

But after looking at the photos, he realized he knew all of them.

Especially Huo Jingliang, Chen Wanxian and Fang Jinxin.

Anyone who has watched the TV series Genesis will definitely have a very deep impression of Huo Jingliang. Many of the things this guy said are still wise sayings decades later.

Especially the sentence "They go to work at 9 o'clock every day, earn only a few thousand yuan a month, save money and play stocks, and dream of getting rich overnight. They don't know who the real winner is."

Chu Xiangqian didn’t understand it in his previous life, but his understanding of this sentence in this life is so profound.

He himself is the behind-the-scenes boss of several industries in Hong Kong Island. If he were not short of ways and opportunities to make money, many industries in Hong Kong Island would have been turned upside down by him.

Uncle Shao Liu in the film industry will definitely be driven back to Southeast Asia by him.

As for several future shipping kings in the shipping industry, let alone becoming shipping kings, Chu Xiangqian will not just compete with the shipping companies under their names, but will directly launch a price war with them.

The profit from selling Chinese coal to Neon.

Just taking out a small portion of the profits would be enough for Chu Xiangqian to use price war to defeat these shipping businesses in Hong Kong Island.

As for the hotel industry in Macau, the total investment in the Great Wall Hotel is only HK$1 million.

With his financial resources, he started building more than a dozen small hotels with the Great Wall Hotel as the core and high-end hotels as the support. It would be easy to reduce the profits of the bosses and associations in Macau who make a living by selling spinach at least by half.

Moreover, this is fair competition. If someone plays dirty tricks, he will die faster.

He doesn't even have to do anything. Just the racing track he invested in Macau and the taxes the Great Wall Hotel pays to the Portuguese every year, as well as the private dividends.

It was enough to make the foreigners take the initiative to drive away those people and societies that dared to attack the hotel or even Chu Xiangqian.

But Chu Xiangqian knew that a temporary victory or defeat was far less important than a long-term success.

Doing long-term investment will not offend anyone, reduce enemies, and the profit will be greater than expected. So he likes investors, not companies.

Since Huo Jingliang appeared in his sight, his future achievements would only be slightly lower than Ye Xiaoli's, so of course he could not be let go.

Moreover, while Huo Jingliang was doing real estate, he was actually more involved in finance.

In addition to the Landlords' Association and Ye Xiaoli, there is another person who is causing trouble and competition for them. For Chu Xiangqian, the financial backer behind the scenes, this is the safest approach.

As for Chen Wanxian and Fang Jinxin, both of them are stock market masters in the big times and are also well-known wealthy people.

Moreover, these two guys later set up a Chinese securities firm, but they broke up due to fierce conflicts due to differences in ideas among partners.

As I said, no matter how good your friends are, don’t do business together.

In most cases, friends become enemies.

Moreover, these two men were already wealthy at this time, and Fang Jinxin was a wealthy man of several generations. Such people would basically not be inferior to others until they suffered a great loss.

Looking at his conflict with Chen Wanxian, in addition to their different ideas, they were also fighting for control of the securities firm.

He even wanted to swallow up all of Chen Wanxian's wealth in one gulp.

It’s just that Fang Jinxin underestimated Chen Wanxian’s subordinates.

Of course, it is also true that Chen Wanxian is a complete villain.

The winner takes it all, and the loser makes Fang Jinxin look like a good guy.

But in Chu Xiangqian's eyes, it was actually all about money and power.

It’s a pity for Fang Jinxin, but he has a bottom line.

This kind of person is really not worth winning over, but it is okay to cooperate with him.

But there are many people who are just as capable as him and more mature than him.

There's no need to bring along a rich young man like him, who is a bit idealistic and gullible.

As for his son Fang Zhanbo, by the time the kid grew up, it was already the 80s.

Moreover, during Fang Zhanbo's rise to power, he defeated his enemy Ding Hai entirely by luck.

After reading the information, Li Jingxiao thought silently for a moment, and said to Huang Weixin, "Please help me arrange for Huo Jingliang to have morning tea. What's the location?"

Chu looked around and pointed to a tea restaurant outside the exchange, "That's it."

Huang Weixin didn't ask why he only invited Huo Jingliang. He nodded and got out of the car. He said a few words to a few assistants, who either ran into the stock exchange or ran to the phone booth.

The other one drove to an unknown place to find Huo Jingliang.

Chu Xiangqian said something to Zhang Tianzhi, and the convoy soon stopped at the tea restaurant.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw that it was full of men in suits, and what surprised Chu Xiangqian was that he actually saw Huang Shitong and his daughter Huang Huilin.

Huang Shitong had his back to the door, while Huang Huilin subconsciously looked up as several bodyguards came in first.

When he saw Chu Xiangqian and others coming in, his eyes suddenly widened and he stammered, "Dad, Dad, Chu, Chu is born."

Huang Shitong turned around suddenly and saw clearly that it was indeed Chu Xiangqian. His pupils shrank and his heartbeat accelerated.

But as soon as he left his seat, he was stopped by a bodyguard. Fortunately, Chu Xiangqian also recognized him.

He smiled and said "Atai", and the bodyguard moved aside, but his eyes were still fixed on Huang Shitong and Huang Huilin.

Watching this father and daughter, I felt frightened.

Chu walked over and patted A Tai on the shoulder, "Relax, Mr. Huang is a well-known stockbroker, and Ms. Huang is an employee of Hang Seng, so she is considered my subordinate."

Only then did the bodyguard finally relax.

He turned his eyes to other people, and at this time two bodyguards had already gone straight into the kitchen. After making sure that there was no problem, they came out and nodded to Zhang Tianzhi.

Chu Xiangqian smiled and shook his head, but did not say a word to blame the bodyguards.

He clapped his hands and said to the customers present, "I'm sorry to have disturbed everyone's meal. How about I treat you all to a meal as an apology?"

After that, he said to Zhou Billy, "Go check out, and order breakfast for everyone."

Zhou Billy nodded in agreement. Some of the customers present did not recognize Chu Xiangqian, and did not mind when they heard that someone was treating them.

But these people also knew that Chu Xiangqian was not someone to be trifled with, so they finished their meal in a few bites and left.

As for the rest, even if you drive them away, they will stay put.

Chu Xiangqian didn't care and squeezed into the same armchair with Huang Shitong. He smiled and stretched out his hand, "Mr. Huang, my private lawyer and accountant have high praise for you."

Huang Shitong swallowed his saliva, realizing that Chu Xiangqian must have checked all his information thoroughly.

Suddenly, I felt a sense of helplessness, not knowing whether it was a blessing or a curse.

He secretly hoped that no one would find out about the shady things he and other agents had done.

But think about it carefully, other people may not be able to find out what I have done, but for a super boss like Chu Xiangqian, as long as he is willing to investigate, he will not be able to hide it at all.

Before you know it, your competitors or friends will betray you.

Chu Xiangqian didn't care at all whether Huang Shitong was a good person or a bad person.

In his eyes, there are only qualified and unqualified stockbrokers.

Although Huang Shitong is the absolute villain in Overheard, there are not too many people like him in the financial circle.

On the contrary, it is financial practitioners like Sima Xian who would rather be wrongly imprisoned than collude with the landlords and are like giant pandas.

In any circle, those who are different are the outliers.

The more loyal you are, the more likely you are to be seen as a fat sheep in this line of work.

Huang Shitong came back to his senses and subconsciously reached out to wipe his suit. Then he half stood up, bent his body and held Chu Xiangqian's hands with both hands.

Because the place is small, this guy's posture is a little funny, but it is definitely respectful enough.

Chu Xiangqian smiled and nodded, patted Huang Shitong on the shoulder and asked him to sit down.

Huang Shitong suddenly felt that Chu Xiangqian was approachable and his smile was so bright.

But Huang Huilin, who was sitting opposite, couldn't help but curl her lips.

He thought to himself that his father was usually so confident and proud, but when facing Chu Sheng, he was not as natural as he was.

The admiration I had for my biological father was instantly shattered.

The look he gave Chu Xiangqian became more and more passionate.

It’s a pity that this girl’s looks are just so-so, and this appearance is not a familiar face to Chu Xiangqian.

Without the halo of a star in Chu Xiangqian's previous life, it would be extremely difficult to become Chu Xiangqian's woman.

But it is not absolute. Zheng Shufen does not have a celebrity face, and neither does Xue Jinglan.

But Xue Jinglan was extremely beautiful, and Zheng Shufen had the added bonus of being a married woman.
