Hong Kong Comprehensive Report: Dragon is in Hong Kong, he just wants to be a plutocrat

Chapter 141 Interest groups, conspiracy against newspapers

Since the early 90s, he has invested heavily in real estate and the stock market. In the past two years, he benefited from the favorable environment.

You can make a fortune by buying Xiangjiang real estate and the stock market with your eyes closed.

Feng Bo, who had tasted the sweetness, was no longer content with making small fuss, and pledged his newspaper's equity in Morgan Bank.

Invest heavily in stocks.

But who knew that the sudden change in the stock market since the beginning of the year and the crazy short selling by the Five Crab Group would cause him to suffer serious losses overnight.

Not only all the previous profits were lost.

Even the principal suffered a serious loss!
The original plan to expand the scale of the daily newspaper has only been postponed again and again.

Xiangjiang Financial Daily is valued at [-] million.It is a typical small but beautiful enterprise whose asset valuation and brand value are lower than the actual valuation.

Feng Bo himself mortgaged 80% of the valuation, about HK$[-] million.

It was agreed to repay within ten years, and the commercial interest rate was 3%, the lowest in the city.

Monthly repayment is 430 million!
It is known that the monthly sales of the daily newspaper are 1500 million, and the profit after deducting all expenses and taxes can reach 30%.

The income of 500 million is just enough to cover the repayment.

………………

The monthly mortgage payments were weighing him down.

How many people are salivating over this newspaper.

For example, the Ma family of Oriental Daily has failed to impress him despite its continuous high premiums in recent years.

Even Huang Tian from Zhongtian Group was interested in getting involved, and even though he was quoted a billion dollars, he was not moved.

Its steady cash flow has left him without any thoughts of selling.

This kind of person also has a good relationship with politics and business. It will not work to use the previous methods to deal with those small newspapers.

So Jiang Tianen is ready to save the country by starting from his loan bank!

A sumptuous meal always comes to an end, followed by cigar time. This is also when Europeans and Americans really socialize and talk.

The ladies brought by Smith took Sucia to taste champagne and jewelry.

Originally, Jiang Tianen was worried that Su Xia did not have the ability to communicate in English.

Unexpectedly, this girl would actually be able to answer questions fluently with these ladies.

It seems that the women around me are constantly improving themselves during this period of time.

Yes, Jiang Tianen's continuous progress gave them a high sense of crisis. After all, a woman's most precious youth only lasts for more than ten years, and Jiang Shao clearly told them that she had no plans to get married.

They come and go freely!

Those who want to leave will not be persuaded to stay but will be given a breakup fee.

Those who entertain people with sex will one day be replaced by new ones.

If you want to stay with him for a long time, you must continue to enrich yourself.

Su Shiya, who has had a strong sense of crisis since she was a child, resolutely signed up for many professional training courses for herself. Especially for English, she paid a high price to hire professional teachers from the University of Hong Kong. Finally, she was able to put her knowledge to use today, which made Jiang Tianen couldn't help but secretly nod.

Even Fang Qiaorong, who was accompanying her, looked at Su Xiya with admiration.

Originally, she sincerely looked down on these girls who clung to wealth, but she didn't expect that the other party would not forget to improve themselves despite the favorable living conditions.

Is this still the club girl I saw in the bank lobby two months ago?

At this moment, his image and conversation would not make anyone suspicious that he is a college graduate.

There are no outsiders in the cigar room now.

The atmosphere became lively when Smith took the lead and told a few dirty jokes.

But Jiang Tianen observed one detail: these people did not shy away from Claire.

As the only woman in the room, she did not feel any discomfort or disgust when faced with vulgar jokes, and she was even more vaguely centered.

This shows that they are very close to each other, have frequent contacts, and are even part of an interest group, and the Underwood family represented by Claire is still in the upper reaches.

Although Jimmy is now the president of Asia Star, he plays the role of a waiter here. Not only does he not say a word, but he diligently shuttles in front of everyone to pour wine for everyone with the champagne in his left hand.Cut cigars.

A group of people sat in a circle on the sofa.

Share jokes with each other that people think are humorous.

Even Claire shared a bit of dry humor.

It was not very funny, but Smith and others laughed so much that they even cried.

Jiang Tianen raised his brows. Who said Europeans and Americans can't flatter people? These people are very good at it.

At this time, Claire looked at Jiang Tianen with a faint smile: "Jiang, the reason you are too silent is because everyone's jokes are too boring. This round, it is your turn. If you can't speak out, you will be punished with a drink."

After saying that, the scene became quiet and turned his attention to him.

Jiang Tianen knocked on the wine glass: "Since this is the case, let me tell you something."

In their stereotype, Asians are always listeners and do not have any sense of humor.At this time, they were very curious about what jokes this Mr. Jiang could bring to everyone.

Jiang Tianen first looked at Claire: "Madam, it's a bit vulgar to take this."

Claire shrugged indifferently: "Jiang, come here."

Please cough.

After years of struggle, Jack finally entered a position in a financial institution on Wall Street.

One day when he was chatting with his boss, the boss said: "If a person wants to make a career on Wall Street, he must either be smart, so that he can solve all problems by himself, or be honest, so that everyone will help him if he encounters difficulties."

Jack asked: "Is there anyone who is both smart and honest?"

"If you see him, remember to tell me."

This is a tasteless and even very vulgar joke to Chinese people.It just hit the point of laughter of these American guys.

Especially Smith laughed out of breath.

"Hahahaha! There are only wolves on Wall Street, not smart and honest people. If that person is honest to you, you have to be careful about your account, hahaha."

Claire chuckled: "Jiang! I want to hear something explosive. This is not vulgar at all."

"As you wish, madam:
To commemorate the 170th anniversary of Nobel's birth, the U.S. Postal Service plans to issue a commemorative stamp and solicit submissions from the society.

No. [-] candidate: Nobel traveled across the ocean to study in the United States.

No. [-] candidate: Nobel's invention of dynamite.

Candidate No. [-]: Nobel was awarded the French Grand Medal.

The final work adopted by the postal service won Shield the Nobel Peace Prize. "

Sheard is a member of the Elephant Party and the person who called for the war in East China a few years ago.

In the past two years, it has been attacked by the Donkey Party.

Everyone here is a member of the Donkey Party, so it is only appropriate to make fun of the Elephant Party.

If this joke spreads, it will definitely become popular all over the country.

Especially the Donkey Party has always been proud of bringing down Lao Bu.

The people in charge now are members of the Donkey Party.

It is currently the mainstream to deny the political legacy of the previous president as much as possible, especially the wonderful scene of Lao Xie using washing powder to slander a certain country at the United Nations General Assembly was exposed by the Donkey Party.

Let Lao Xie be ridiculed after retirement!

This paragraph is just right at this moment.

After a few seconds of silence in the small private room, more enthusiastic laughter broke out.

This joke directly brought everyone closer psychologically.

How can we say that everyone has the same concept and is "all the same way"?

Claire smiled.

Appearance is dignified.

Under the table where no one could see, he took off his high heels and rubbed one foot like Jiang Tianen.

If he is interested, it is not recommended to do it tonight.

It's a pity that the Asian guy opposite didn't know how to be funny. He didn't respond and even pulled his legs back.

At this time, Smith raised a glass to Jiang Tianen while drinking too much: "Everyone, let us praise Mr. Jiang! This grand reception and two wonderful jokes. Drink up!"

Smith and others looked at each other and gave Claire and Jiang Tianen time to talk privately on the pretext of pouring wine.

But before leaving, he whispered in Jiang Tianen's ear: "If Ms. Claire has no problem with your request, there will be no problem with us."

It is indeed an interest group!Not only outsiders in the Morgan system can deeply influence them.

At this moment, several people deliberately walked away to give the two of them time to be alone.

Jiang Tianen knew that the drama was coming.

Claire took a sip of champagne and said, "Mr. Jiang, you must be very curious as to why I, the wife of a state congressman, and the counselor of the U.S. Department of Asia, went to Siam alone."

"I'm not curious! What does it have to do with me if you just wander into the cannibal tribe alone?" He thought so in his mind, but his actual actions were completely opposite.

"Oh?" Jiang Tianen pretended to listen.

"Sheng Jiang, do you know that for the so-called rapid economic development, the entire Southeast Asia is polluting the environment; how many precious animals have been slaughtered, you may have never heard that few male elephants in Siam can survive until the age of eight!
Because everyone over the age of eight is slaughtered for their teeth.

A large number of apes were captured and sold. It was to record this first-hand information that I went deep into Siam.Just doing your part for Mother Earth”

"We are also constantly looking for like-minded friends to join us. If we have money, we will contribute people, and if we have the strength, we will work together to protect the earth's environment."

Jiang Tianen almost vomited when he heard this!

If there is no trade, there will be no killing. Claire said this in a high-sounding way, but she didn’t know how much ivory was exported and made into handicrafts?

Those apes were even worse sold to biologics companies.Because pharmaceuticals require a large number of test products!
It is precisely because of the endless strong demand for Omi that a large number of killings have been caused. Isn’t this the original sin of your greed?

At this moment, there is a high-sounding desire to protect the earth's environment.

You really have to be a bitch and you have to build a memorial arch!

However, in the world of House of Cards, this woman is this kind of person. In the end, she was brainwashed into an extreme environmentalist, and she exported a lot of profits for the so-called "public welfare" cause.

But what does this have to do with Jiang Tianen?Even if he was filled with righteous indignation, he could not change this fact.

.....................

Claire continued to talk about how great her green organization was, but now it encountered a little difficulty.

Obviously the other party said this to ask for funds.

This played right into his hands.

Jiang Tianen pretended to be serious, listening and applauding: "Ms. Claire, I admire you very much! But I am involved in worldly affairs, otherwise I would like to join this great cause myself."

Upon hearing this, Claire's expression changed and she was disappointed.He cursed secretly in his heart: "I don't know how to praise."

Jiang Tianen saw this and chuckled. At this time, Claire was far from the calm city that she would be 20 years later.

I'm still a little green now and my emotions are too obvious.

"However! Although I can't devote myself personally, I am willing to have money to support this great cause. Ms. Kelley, I am willing to set up a foundation for you. The Asian Dragon Club will inject 200 million US dollars into it every year, and you will be asked to host it. How about this foundation? What do you think?"

The sudden reversal made Claire almost stunned.
