Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 256 Black Saturday
September 1983, 9, later became known as "Black Saturday."

Unknowingly, two years have passed since 1981. During these two years, four rounds of negotiations have been held on the issue that the people of Hong Kong are concerned about, and so far there has been no conclusion.

It's like one boot hits the ground and you're waiting for the other boot to hit the ground!
Amidst such anxious waiting, recently, I don’t know the specific day, rumors suddenly and inexplicably spread in Hong Kong society that the two sides had “broken down negotiations.”

For a time, Hong Kong Island's financial market experienced violent turmoil, with investors frantically running on U.S. dollars and gold and selling Hong Kong dollars.

一天之内，港币汇率就从1美元兑换8.12港币迅速下跌至1美元兑换9.5港币，黄金价格则猛涨至4705港币每盎司。

At the same time, panic buying of goods and price gouging also occurred in the market. The price of rice soared from HK$18 per pack to HK$23 per pack, and major supermarkets were sold out of daily necessities.

Looking at the empty shelves in the supermarket on TV, Li Wannian felt that his dead memory was reviving.

He was almost ready to buy masks!

"Xiao Nian, do you think we are really going to fight?"

Huang Jiali looked at the news reports on TV and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"No, mom, I can't fight!"

When Li Wannian saw this, he consoled him impatiently.

Because at this moment, he comforted his mother countless times, but the effect...

"Why not? I heard that the troops are already on the border now. I know the Lin family's sister-in-law. Yesterday, the whole family flew to Canada! If they really come here, will our family be confiscated?"

Seeing his mother's serious look, Li Wannian thought to himself: It's a good thing there are no phone scams in this era, otherwise his mother's condition would make his family bankrupt in a matter of minutes!

The money that the family now has is not confiscated, but donated to the four major families in northern Myanmar.

"It's nothing! Mom, it's not like you don't know my situation. Why would you rather believe them than me?"

In the past two years, Li Wannian's relationship with the North has become closer and closer, and he even received many warnings from Wanwan.

Fortunately, the other party took into account Li Wannian's current international reputation and Li Wanshui's manipulation, so they did not block DreamWorks.

Of course, this is also because DreamWorks has grown to an extremely large level.

The current DreamWorks Company owns Hong Kong Island's largest animation production company, the largest comic magazine, the largest toy production and export company, the largest television station, and many other firsts in Hong Kong Island.

Therefore, even though the stock market has been unstable in the past two years, DreamWorks' stock market price has exceeded the 30 billion Hong Kong dollar mark, becoming a force that cannot be ignored on Hong Kong Island.

"Wow……"

At this moment, a burst of crying came from next door, causing Huang Jiali, who was about to continue talking, to get up from the sofa quickly.

"My eldest young master, have you bullied your younger brother again?"

Li Wannian turned around and looked over and found that it was his eldest nephew Li Bangren who had snatched the toys of his second nephew Li Bangyi and made the one-year-old Li Bangyi cry.

Li Bangyi is not the son of his eldest brother, but the son of his second brother Li Wanshan.

The second brother Li Wanshan, who often misses flowers, was accidentally shot the year before last. Fortunately, the person who was shot was Zheng Yuling, who can be regarded as his long-term partner.

But this also caused Li Wanshan to receive a beating from his parents.

Parents don't like Zheng Yuling, but it's impossible not to like the child in her belly!
So, they forcefully forced Li Wanshan to get married. They couldn't let the child become an illegitimate child, right?

Poor Li Wanshan, who was only 26 years old, got married to his son. He hadn't had enough fun yet!

However, although Zheng Yuling's mother successfully joined a wealthy family because of her son's wealth, Li Wanshan still went his own way after marriage, showing no signs of restraining.Fortunately, Zheng Yuling is a very smart person. After her marriage, she gradually faded out of the film industry. She stayed at home to look after her husband and raise her children, being her own rich wife, and still left Li Wanshan alone.

This made Li Wanshan very satisfied, so he gradually gave up the idea of ​​divorcing him.

Although this matter was solved perfectly, it also sounded the alarm for Li Wannian.

Safety is really important!

"Next, can we enter the venue?"

After Huang Jiali left, Li Wanshui, who had been sitting aside, suddenly asked Li Wannian.

"Almost! Although the stock market will continue to fall, it won't last long, and we also need time to operate!"

"Finally wait for this day!"

Hearing Li Wannian's answer, Li Wanshui let out a long sigh, and finally felt like a good rain came out of a long drought.

In the past two years, Li Wanshui has been under great pressure!
In fact, although investment companies have made profits and losses in the stock market in the past two years, overall funds have continued to grow.

In two years, the funds in hand have almost doubled.

However, due to the transfer of a large amount of funds from the company and the reduction of shares, Li Wanshui worked hard to maintain the company as carefully as walking a tightrope.

With such a radical policy, if you are not careful, the company will fall into the hands of others.

Fortunately, now that the rain has passed and the sky is clear, we can finally see a rainbow.

For most people, the economic crisis is definitely a bad thing. Assets shrink, companies lay off employees, and prices soar, almost directly threatening the normal survival of individuals and families.

But for wealthy people like Li Wanshui, who have a lot of money in their hands, such an economic crisis simply gives them a good opportunity to buy at the bottom!
They can spend much less money than usual to buy very attractive assets.

"By the way, brother, I'd like to remind Mr. Xie to move quickly, no more than a month later. If it's too late, don't take action randomly. I'm afraid this situation will happen again!"

"Will it happen again?"

Li Wannian's words shocked Li Wanshui again.

"That's right, as long as this negotiation doesn't end for one day, the stock market will be like a restless child, jumping up and down!"

As he said this, Li Wannian looked at Li Bangren, who was being chased by his grandmother.

This little guy is now over three years old and is at his most naughty.

"When will it end?"

"It's coming soon, it will probably only take another year!"

"That's good, the company's plan can finally be implemented!"

Although Li Wanshui didn't know how Li Wannian came to this conclusion, after so many years of getting along with him, he had long been convinced by Li Wannian's prophetic judgment and would not think about whether it was right or wrong.

"Yes, this 'Black Saturday' is a good thing for the company's development, but the sales of this week's new issue of the magazine are probably very bleak!"

At this time, Li Wannian looked at the TV and glanced at the shelves filled with comic books in the convenience store, and couldn't help but sigh.
