Rebirth 1980: Marrying my sister’s best friend at the beginning

In the blink of an eye, it’s already early May!
Over the past ten days or so, the business community of Hong Kong Island has been extremely dynamic and bustling.

First, Li Yi and the Huashang Group launched a counterattack against those who spread the rumors behind the scenes, and achieved good results.

Not only did it force those hidden rats to disappear, but it also quickly eliminated the adverse effects caused by the rumors and stabilized the hearts of company employees and citizens.

As those negative impacts gradually disappeared, coupled with the stimulus of a new round of investment by Star Investment Company, the discussion volume about Li Yi and Star Investment Company increased significantly, and it once again became a hot topic among the people of Hong Kong Island.

Under this circumstance, a large number of people and investors flocked to Star Investment Company. In just ten days, Star Company absorbed more than 500 billion Hong Kong dollars in new funds.

This does not include the personal commissions accepted by Li Yi. Compared with the company's rule of accepting all orders, Li Yi himself only accepts investment commissions of more than HK$1 billion.

However, due to his great fame in the investment community, dozens of bigwigs came to him seeking cooperation in a very short period of time, including the Li family, the He family, the Bao family, the Huo family, the Luo family and British groups.

Soon, the number of commissions Li Yi received exceeded 400 billion US dollars, of which the British group controlled by Dolson alone contributed 200 billion US dollars.

For a time, the new round of investment plan of Xingchen Investment Company became the focus of heated discussion among the people of Hong Kong Island, and even the rumors that were circulating some time ago were suppressed.

But it is obvious that Li Yi will not let this matter go so easily.

What he shouted at the membership meeting of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, "We must punish the enemy no matter how far away they are," was not just talk. It is far from enough to force the rats back into the gutter, because it will not cause any harm to the black hands behind the scenes.

In Li Yi's opinion, if the pursuit of accountability only stops here, the other party will not only not repent and restrain themselves, but will also laugh at their incompetence, and may even be hiding in the dark and watching their jokes.

Therefore, after eliminating the negative impact and stabilizing people's hearts, Li Yi decided to add fuel to the fire.

At the end of April, at Li Yi's request, the national level finally took action, using diplomatic means to put pressure on London on the one hand, and flexing its muscles in coastal areas on the other hand, which put tremendous pressure on the other side.

Out of desperation, the Governor of Hong Kong personally visited Li Yi at Genting One to ask the other side's opinion.

Li Yi naturally would not admit that the exercise and the protest were directly related, but at the same time he also expressed his own and the Chinese Business Department's attitude, to solve the case within a time limit and severely punish the rumormongers.

Although Li Yi repeatedly stated that this was only his personal opinion and had nothing to do with the government, the white old man still understood his underlying meaning.

After visiting Li Yi, the old man realized that he could not get away with this matter. Under pressure, he could only ask the police station to do its best to resolve the matter.

As for how to solve it, that will be a test of the wisdom of the people in the police station.

With the "strong support" of the Hong Kong Governor's Office, the police station's task force naturally could no longer slack off, and their investigation soon made a "breakthrough."

After many days of efforts by the task force, several bosses of the gossip tabloids who had "absconded" were arrested one after another, and the "truth" of the case was gradually revealed. On May 5, the police station reported the relevant circumstances of the case: it was said that several gossip tabloids on the verge of bankruptcy fabricated those rumors by taking advantage of the Warwick incident in order to increase sales, and deliberately discredited Li Yi and the Chinese government to increase the topic and increase sales. It was a typical organized and premeditated criminal act.

At present, the task force has fully investigated the truth of the matter, and the case is being handed over to the prosecutor. All relevant suspects will be severely punished by law.
As soon as the news was announced, the people of Hong Kong Island began to criticize the rumor mongers.

At the same time, the police station's case report also proved the innocence of Li Yi, Xingchen Investment Company and Warwick Company, and cleared their names!
Li Yi was still very satisfied with this.

Although he also knew that the people caught by the police were just scapegoats for the mastermind behind the scenes.

In this incident, these people were at best just minions who were responsible for taking action and are not worth mentioning at all.

But for Li Yi, it is obviously impossible to ask the Governor's Office to find out the real mastermind behind the scenes. This will not only make them slap themselves in the face, but may also make them send themselves to the guillotine.

Li Yi did not want these from the beginning. He forced London and the Governor's Office for two purposes. One was to make them clear the names of him, Li Yi, Star Company and Warwick Company.

The other is to make them lose their composure and provide useful clues to solve the case to the real investigation team.

The scapegoats put forward by the police are undoubtedly the best clues and the best breakthroughs.

As long as we can force the Governor's Office to do this, it will be enough. As for the real truth, someone will naturally find out.

When it comes to revenge, it feels better to do it yourself!
So, while the police station was trying to use a scapegoat to get away with it, the national security elites lurking in Hong Kong Island had already taken action.

They dug deeper into the affairs of the tabloid newspaper owners, and soon the identities of the masterminds behind the scenes were revealed one by one.

When Li Yi saw the list of the real masterminds from his brother-in-law Yang Wenguang, he couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth.

Similar to the results of his previous analysis, this incident was planned by those black-hearted politicians in the British Isles, but the participants were not only those John Bulls, but also some jumping clowns in the surrounding areas.

Now that the mastermind behind the scenes has surfaced, the next thing to do is naturally to kill him no matter how far away he is.

However, since there were too many enemies, Li Yi decided to name them one by one, and the first one to be "executed" was of course the main culprit.

This time, Li Yi not only wanted to make the opponent pay a heavy price, but also wanted to fight him face to face.

Soon, under Li Yi's preparation, an investment team of 200 people was formed.

Then, this huge team flew from Hong Kong Island to London with a large amount of funds, and the real counterattack was about to begin.
