This matter can only be discussed with the general manager Bao Fuda first.

Although Niu Bijian was angry, he had never been an impulsive person, otherwise he would not have been able to sit in the position of the head of Jardine Matheson and hold the position for several years.

After receiving the call from Niu Bijian, Bao Fuda left the headquarters of Jardine Matheson and went to the headquarters of Jardine Matheson without saying a word.

The headquarters of Jardine Matheson and the headquarters of Swire Properties are both in Central, not far from each other, so after about ten minutes, Bao Fuda appeared in Niu Bijian's office.

"Mr. Niu Bijian, what's the matter that requires you to look me in such a hurry?" Bao Fuda said breathlessly.

It was hard for him to get to Niu Bijian's office in such a short time with such a big belly.

"The plan has changed. We may not be able to acquire the land in Sheung Wan that Swire Properties owns in the short term." Niu Bijian sighed.

"Why? Didn't you ask Xin Yian's people for help? With Xin Yian's means, this small village should be easy to capture, right?" Bao Fuda asked doubtfully.

"Mr. Su Cheng intervened. He stopped Xin Yian's action plan and prevented Xin Yian from continuing to oppress this small village." Niu Bijian explained.

"Su Cheng intervened to stop us from taking this land? This land has nothing to do with them, right? We are all in Hong Kong, we see each other every day, why would he take the initiative to provoke us?" Bao Fuda was also full of questions at this time.

"This is what I can't figure out. If we have offended him recently, it may be because we have secretly poached Wen Yu, the general manager of Hutchison Plaza. If he knew, he would definitely be angry. Wen Yu rejected our invitation, and he might tell Su Cheng about our affairs, which would offend Su Cheng.

In order to retaliate against us, he intervened in the affairs of that small village. As far as I know, this small village called Dashaling Village is not far from one of their armed training bases. It is not difficult for them to know the affairs of Dashaling Village. "

This is also the only place that Niu Bijian can think of where he has offended Su Cheng.

"Mr. Niu Bijian, have you called Mr. Su Cheng?" Bao Fuda asked.

Niu Bijian shook his head. Ask him to call Su Cheng for help? He couldn't do it.

As for questioning Su Cheng, that was even more impossible and would only offend the other party even more.

"Since this is the case, there are only a few options for us to take. I can think of three options for now.

1. We should compensate the villagers at the normal market price and take the normal approach to get them to agree to our conditions. However, this approach may cause them to have a bad impression of our land purchase due to our previous actions, so they may ask for an exorbitant amount of money, which will greatly increase the cost of this land. In addition, we have to convince nearly households to agree to sign. It will take a long time to convince them to sign, and half a year is the minimum. This will greatly delay the completion time of our project!
2. Find Mr. Shen Bi to be the middleman, and sit down and discuss peacefully. Use the strength of our British financial group to force Mr. Su Cheng not to interfere in our affairs. In this way, the affairs of Dashaling Village can continue.

3. Find another place as a new site. We have been discussing the land in Sheung Wan for nearly a month. This is our best choice. After all, it is not far from Central, Causeway Bay and Wan Chai, which has great advantages. Our other sites include Ap Lei Chau, Stanley, Chai Wan and other places, but the disadvantages of these places are also obvious, that is, they are too remote. We have no advantages at all. Even after the completion of the construction, we may not be able to grab this piece of cake. "

Bao Fuda expressed several options that he had thought of.

As for why he didn't ask Mai Lihao to mediate, there was naturally a reason.

In fact, this time they found Xin Yian to intimidate and force the villagers of Dashaling Village, and even caused a death. This kind of thing can be regarded as a crime.

Although MacLehose is a British citizen, what he did in Hong Kong was more just and he often cared about the citizens. If MacLehose knew about their actions, he would not help them. The British financial groups knew about these things.

Therefore, Bao Fuda had no intention of mentioning the Governor Mai Lihao at all, and Niu Bijian was also very clear about what was going on.

"Then in your opinion, which path should we choose?" Niu Bijian asked back.

“The first option is that our shopping mall may not be completed until 1982, which is too long and I, as the general manager of Landmark, cannot accept it.

As for the third path, there are too many unknowns, and there is a high probability of investment failure, so I do not support this path either.

Now, the only option left for us is the second one. " Bao Fuda answered without even thinking.

Niu Bijian was silent for a long time.

He was thinking whether there were any better ways.

As the boss of Jardine Matheson and also the boss of Hutchison Whampoa, he really cares about the company.

Most importantly, the board of directors behind him is watching him.

And his term of office is about to end.

If Niu Bijian still wants to continue sitting in this position after his term ends, how can he achieve enough results?

However, in the past few years, Jardine Matheson has not achieved any great results. Even its status as the top British financial group has been taken away by the Huifeng Group. Jardine Matheson has gone from being the boss in Hong Kong to the second.

Although there are many factors that contributed to the Huifeng Group's success in becoming the top financial group in Hong Kong and the top British financial group, it cannot be blamed on his own strength.

But even if the board of directors did not blame him for this matter, he still needed sufficient results to continue to maintain his position.

Otherwise, a boss who has accomplished nothing will only be dismissed when his term of office expires.

After much thought, Niu Bijian couldn't think of a better solution.

"Oh, if I had known earlier, I would have just honestly carried out the demolition at market price. Maybe those unruly people would have agreed sooner." Niu Bijian said regretfully.

"Mr. Niu Bijian, things have come to this point. What we have done has caused disgust in this village. There is no point in saying these things now!" Bao Fuda saw everything clearly at this time.

"What is Su Cheng's intention? Is he deliberately blocking our progress so that his Hutchison Plaza can monopolize the market?" Niu Bijian thought.

"That could be the reason. After all, Hutchison Plaza is making so much money. I sent someone to observe Hutchison Plaza today. According to their response, Hutchison Plaza is still as lively as yesterday. The main street is crowded with people, and every store is busy all the time. Maybe today's traffic is no worse than that of Saturday. Hutchison Plaza is like a gold mine, making a fortune every day!" Bao Fuda exclaimed. (End of this chapter)
