Island Tycoon

Chapter 583 Hong Kong government withdraws the project
The plan of He Shijian and others is going on. At the same time, as the third party of the two, the Hong Kong government decided to intervene in the conflict between them.

As for the representatives who handed over to Ye Jingcheng, in addition to Peng Jiankang who had contact with Ye Jingcheng, there is also the current financial secretary, Bi Liezhi.

"Ye Sheng, we are here this time mainly to express the wishes of the Hong Kong government." Peng Jiankang first stated his position after calling the two to sit down.

As for the sudden visit of these two people, it would be a lie for Ye Jingcheng to say that he had no other thoughts.

Then he looked at Bi Liezhi. According to the information he had, besides serving as the financial secretary, the other party actually had another identity, that is, the chairman of the Hong Kong Island branch of the Swire Group.

Bi Liezhi's identity is still secondary, mainly because the Swire Group behind him is inextricably linked with the circle of 'big players'.

For the branch of Swire Group on Hong Kong Island, its parent company only accounts for about [-]% of the shares.Most of the remaining [-]% were scattered among the shipping tycoons, and these people had already integrated into the circle of big players.

Therefore, as the representative of the Hong Kong government, Bi Liezhi inevitably made Ye Jingcheng feel that the Hong Kong government's position was biased towards the other party. This time, he came here to persuade him not to have conflicts with the other party.

But he really guessed right, Peng Jiankang greeted him politely, and then handed over the right to speak to Bi Liezhi.

The latter mentioned this matter and said: "Ye Sheng, the market conditions on Hong Kong Island are already overwhelmed. We don't want you and He Sheng, or others, to cause the economy of Hong Kong Island to further deteriorate due to personal grievances." .”

"Then what's your suggestion?" Confirming his thoughts, Ye Jingcheng snorted.

If Bi Liezhi's position was not to favor He Shijian and others, then he would definitely explain to Ye Jingcheng that they would also talk to He Shijian and others, or ask both parties to come out and clarify this matter face to face.

Now it's just talking to Ye Jingcheng unilaterally, obviously to make him unilaterally subdue.

"We hope that you can take the initiative to find He Sheng. Even if everyone had any conflicts before, it will be canceled if you make it clear in person." Bi Liezhi said lightly.

From Ye Jingcheng's point of view, this sentence has at least three meanings.

First, ask him to put his posture down first.

Second, ask him to take the initiative to admit his mistakes to the other party.

Third, since the conflict has been resolved, the other party will not forget the villain's faults, and will generously accept him to join.

In fact, there are more levels of understanding, but Ye Jingcheng is too lazy to guess one by one.For example, the starting point seems to be for his own good, but in fact, he has been bullied at the door.

Or He Shijian didn't take the initiative to come to him, but asked the Hong Kong government to intervene in this matter, the purpose is to let him know that even the Hong Kong government is on their side, why do you, Ye Jingcheng, fight with them?
"Yes, Ye Sheng. Instead of you continuing to fight, it is better to use your human and financial resources to jointly contribute to the prosperous economy of Hong Kong Island." Peng Jiankang joined the lobbying team.

"So you want me to bow my head to them?" Ye Jingcheng narrowed his eyes.

"Ye Sheng, that's not what we meant, it might just be your excessive misinterpretation." Bi Liezhi shook his head.

It seemed that Ye Jingcheng was not afraid that extreme words would cause Ye Jingcheng to attack them, and continued to discuss the matter in a matter-of-fact manner, "We just hope that you can put off the conflict with He Sheng for the sake of the suffering people."

"Isn't that what you mean? I can't see that you have a second meaning." Ye Jingcheng mocked.

For the suffering masses?Ye Jingcheng is not that great.The same is true for He Shijian and others, even more unprincipled than him.

After Hong Kong Island fell into an economic crisis, they successively took advantage of the property market and the stock market to crush a large group of people to gather their wealth. Is this what Bi Liezhi called for the sake of the suffering people?
"Ye Sheng, let me tell you the truth. You contracted several projects from the Hong Kong government earlier. Because of the suspension you announced during this period, the Hong Kong government suspects that your capital chain is not working well. It is necessary to pay attention to your company. Further evaluation of qualifications does not rule out finding other consortiums to take over these projects."

Seeing Ye Jingcheng's reluctance to eat, Bi Liezhi immediately changed his posture, and this time his expression was more direct.

To put it simply, if this matter cannot be resolved peacefully, the Hong Kong government will take back the project contracted to him.Moreover, the qualifications of the companies under his name will also decline, and it will be difficult or impossible to receive projects from the Hong Kong government in the future.

At this time, Ye Jingcheng's assistant walked in.With tea in his hand, he was about to pass it to Bi Liezhi and the others, but Ye Jingcheng drove him away and motioned him to go out.

These two are not even guests, so what right do they have to drink his tea?Do you really think he is a bully when he comes to report for the first time?

"You want to withdraw all the projects?" Ye Jingcheng patted the table and said, "Yes, as long as you can pay me back how much money I invested in the project."

Seeing Ye Jingcheng call his assistants away, he even took back the tea brought to him, and then slapped the table to give them a hard time.Bi Liezhi's stance was even tougher, and he said, "Ye Sheng, if things really go to that extent, we will not be responsible for your loss."

"Then why do you take back a few projects? Just rely on one sentence? I thought the Hong Kong government really had a lot of laws, but it turns out that it is still outrageous for profit." Ye Jingcheng snorted coldly.

"Ye Sheng, you really misunderstood this point." Peng Jiankang said: "The Hong Kong government will never harm the interests of individuals. But if there are developers who can better apply the promulgated policies, the Hong Kong government will also follow the pan-democrats. perspective to prioritize."

The implication is that the Hong Kong government will not directly withdraw his project.And if someone is more suitable than him to develop these projects, then the Hong Kong government will inevitably have some 'consultations' to decide the orientation.

Bi Liezhi was playing bad face, and Peng Jiankang was naturally playing red face. He continued to persuade: "I know a thing or two about the matter between you and He Sheng. In fact, you don't need to argue like this. As a qualified Businessman, if you lose a little face in exchange for better development, it is also a good choice, don't you think?"

"Do you think I'm going to be determined?" Ye Jingcheng said teasingly, "I'm so sorry, face is far more important than development to me."

"If you want to take back these projects, fine! I don't ask you to return all of them. As long as you find someone to pay me back 50 billion, it's not a problem for me to withdraw from all projects voluntarily."

Ye Jingcheng made this decision, not because he chose to give in.Instead, he is more determined to deal with He Shijian and others. If the Hong Kong government must intervene in this matter, he cannot guarantee what will happen.

Moreover, now is not the era of information explosion in later generations after all, and the so-called exposure rate is not enough to deter some black-box operations.There are even quite a few British officials who are waiting to make a fortune and then retire back to their motherland.

The most powerful thing about these red-haired ghosts is to play politics, and they are also very good at calculating other people. Well, if the Hong Kong government really decided to withdraw the project, Ye Jingcheng would definitely not be able to keep it.But it's not that the other party just takes it away if they say they want to. It's impossible not to have a real explanation.

Anyway, it's okay if the other party doesn't interfere, once he agrees to his request.It is true that he had to withdraw from the Hong Kong Island market, but in this matter he was subsidizing him in a disguised form. It is not known whether Chi Yu will be affected after dealing with He Shijian and others.

"Ye Sheng, don't you think about it for a while?" Bi Liezhi's face froze, seemingly giving Ye Jingcheng a buffer, but in fact it was a warning to him.

"It's easy to leave." Ye Jingcheng gestured towards the door, since the two sides have torn their faces, there is no need to be hypocritical.

"I hope you won't regret it!" Bi Liezhi walked away in a huff.

Anyway, he is also an important member of the Hong Kong government, and he is also the financial secretary as a hub.Now that all the good and bad things have been said, Ye Jingcheng still doesn't give him this face, and he doesn't want to take advantage of the Hong Kong government in the future.

Peng Jiankang followed closely behind, but when he reached the door, he turned around and shook his head at Ye Jingcheng, sighing and regretting.

It's just that in Ye Jingcheng's eyes, Peng Jiankang is undoubtedly pretending to leave him a so-called 'room'.It implies that if he has figured it out, he can ask him to change his decision.

After the two of them go back, they will definitely have an internal discussion about his tough stance today.Maybe some people disagree with him to completely tear the face off, but He Shijian and others will definitely find a way to facilitate this matter.

Whether it is to ask the Hong Kong government to approve a budget, or they find someone to take over these projects, they will definitely come up with a sum of compensation to Ye Jingcheng.

Because for them, as long as Ye Jingcheng loses his relationship with the Hong Kong government, they can act more recklessly.

After Bi Liezhi and Peng Jiankang left, Ye Jingcheng immediately called the administrative assistant to let the latter arrange his schedule in advance.In addition, find someone to secretly contact Li Jiacheng and inform the other party that the plan has entered the initial stage.

three days later.

Under the instigation of He Shijian and others, the Hong Kong government approved a budget of 15 billion, and He Shijian and others collected 30 billion.The amount of compensation for several projects under Ye Jingcheng's name, including: Eastern Submarine Tunnel, Yuen Long seaside resort, and City One Shatin.

That morning, Ye Jingcheng transferred the money to an overseas account.Together with the 50 billion he earned in the stock market earlier, the funds he can manipulate reached 200 billion Hong Kong dollars, equivalent to about 22 billion U.S. dollars.

In addition, Li Jiacheng also brought him good news during this period.He secretly reached an agreement with Guo Desheng, Li Zhaoji, Zheng Yutong and others, and decided to choose Ye Jingcheng as his position on this matter.

They also don't want to be oppressed by He Shijian all the time, which makes them unable to expand their careers.This group of people is simply breaking the rules of a place, especially a crap like Luo Wenhao. If this continues, Hong Kong Island will be finished by this group of people sooner or later.

For this reason, after a round of secret operations, they transferred out their working capital and brought Ye Jingcheng nearly [-] million U.S. dollars in funding.
