Hong Kong Island Old Events

Chapter 231 Legislative Battle

Qi Yaolin was taller than Huo Guantai. He looked at Huo Guantai in front of him as if he were a dwarf, but a dwarf dared to step forward and grab him by the collar. His eyes were like those of a tiger, staring at him fiercely.

Taikoo Taipan Xuansha stood up quickly, holding a cigar in his hand, and yelled: "Little monkey!"

"Let go of Mr. Qi!"

Qi Yaolin came to his senses after being scolded, stared at the little dwarf's face with anger in his eyes, grabbed the stick beside the chair, and raised the stick to hit Huo Guantai.

However, Huo Yingdong was very skilled. He stretched out his hand to grab the handle, and with a forceful pull, he grabbed the handle and threw it to the ground: "Fuck your mother!"

"The most ruthless person in my life threatens me!"

"When it comes to business, we can talk about everything, but as long as you dare to threaten me, there's nothing to talk about." He waved his hand, cursed, and turned away angrily: "How about some love? The big deal is, we'll die together." !”

Qi Yaolin watched Huo Guantai open the door and rush out with a flash of fear in his heart.

Huo Guantai was adjusting his suit at the door, adjusting his mood, and said, "You bastard, you dare to sit on my head and shit?"

Xuansha looked at the handwriting on the ground in the room, then looked at the dull Sir Qi, and said unwillingly: "Qi Taipan."

"HSBC will fully support Swire Properties."

Qi Yaolin's voice was hoarse, but his tone was decisive: "Acquire Lixin Real Estate!"

A look of ecstasy appeared on Xuansha's face.

Qi Yaolin couldn't be happy, because he knew that Huo Yingdong was a rare talent and a difficult opponent. How much money did HSBC make from Huo Yingdong back then?

Hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars!

Among all the Chinese businessmen supported by HSBC, this is the most courageous and courageous one.

However, as the leading foreign bank, HSBC pursues the idea of ​​holding a controlling stake. If it wants to do so, it must be the second largest shareholder or even the largest shareholder of the investing company. In this way, it can not only obtain the maximum benefits, but also achieve the maximum integration of resources.

HSBC sometimes takes the initiative to manipulate the holding company, make mergers and acquisitions and reorganizations, go bankrupt, and appoint a president, etc.

At the beginning, Huo Guantai made He Dingxian the second largest shareholder of Lixin Real Estate, which violated HSBC's bottom line. Now, HSBC is giving him another chance because of past favors.

he does not want!

Then we can only fight!

"White-haired ghost, I was driving an airship, transporting cargo ship after ship. When I ran into pirates, you were drinking coffee in the office. Now you are using the name of your benefactor to suppress me?" Huo Guantai sat in the car, blowing the sea breeze, Cursing: "Fuck you!"

"Brother Tai, would you like Dabi Deng to send some people over?" the driver A Feng said.

Huo Guantai shook his head: "No need."

"If he dares to touch me."

"You will send his whole family back to the west with explosives on your back."

Afeng is a young man with a bald head, scars on his face, and a capable figure. Hearing this, he said: "No problem."

Back then, when Huo Guantai rescued A Feng from under the pirate cabin, A Feng's surname was Huo.

In fact, if HSBC can make a profit and negotiate well, Huo Guantai may not necessarily stand firm on He Dingxian's side. In business matters, interests come first, but the ghost guy is domineering and always wants to take advantage of him.

In the shipping industry, I have to be manipulated, no problem. If I sell contraband, I have to pay for it. If I go ashore to do real estate, you are here to manipulate me.

The clay figurine is still angry, let alone the airship Tai?

The BMW stopped downstairs at Lixin Real Estate. Mr. Huo got out of the car and returned to the office. Just as he was about to call He Dingxian, he picked up the newspaper on his desk out of habit and glanced at it, his expression immediately changed: "The Hong Kong government approved an Anti-Corruption Investigation Bill." "?"

He carefully read the bill and sighed: "He Sheng has been prepared for it!"

This bill cannot be submitted temporarily because there is no time at all. It must be He Shengbei's backup. No wonder Gui Lao is so anxious.

Afterwards, Huo Guantai read through the newspapers on the table. Several newspapers were dog-eared.

This is the job of the secretary. If the boss is interested in seeing other pages, he can browse them by himself. Those involving important business news and policy news must be marked in advance.

"The key to this move is not the silver bullet, but the policy." Using silver bullets to fight price wars and acquisition wars is a low-level operation in the battle between large companies, which often occurs within capital groups, because after the silver bullet is used, there will be no return. It can be said that unless one party is burned to death, it will not affect the foundation of the company and may even open up the market for both companies.

Policy confrontation is a life-and-death, bloody battle between different capital groups.

A new policy or a new law can cause an industry to collapse, or it can bring endless development potential. Once passed, it will completely strangle the other party.

Compared with industry standards and regulations, starting with the Anti-Corruption Act is a killer move!

If Chinese capital can seize the power to fight corruption, at the political level, it will have weapons to attack British capital for the first time, and capital from both sides will have something to play with in the future.

A more cruel type of business war involves simple means such as poisoning, theft, robbery, and murder. They have risen from a financial offensive to physical destruction. They are methods that break the rules of the game and destroy both the jade and the stone. They deserve mercy.

"This is a policy war!" Huo Guantai secretly lamented his luck. Fortunately, he did not stand with Gui Lao. Otherwise, no matter how great the cooperation with Gui Lao was, he might be imprisoned after the bill was promulgated.

No matter how much you earn at that time, it will be useless and it will be too late to regret.

"Da da da." Huo Guantai picked up the phone on the table, dialed a series of numbers, and said, "Hello?"

"He Sheng."

He Dingxian was in the office, holding a newspaper in his left hand. He picked up the phone with his right hand and said, "Brother Tai."

"HSBC's senior executive is looking for me."

Huo Guantai told the truth bluntly: "I didn't agree, so we have no more talks with HSBC."

He Dingxian is full of confidence: "If HSBC does not lend money, Oriental Bank will lend it to you. From now on, Oriental Bank will be your treasury!"

Now, if Oriental Bank carries out another round of deposit-taking and launches several high-interest funds, it can still attract tens of millions of funds.

Because the Chinese and ghost guys in the police force are getting richer and richer.

This money is the reserves of the Eastern Bank.

The police officers have been saving at Oriental Bank for two years and have already developed a sense of trust. It is easy to continue to accumulate savings.

I dare not say that it will not be a problem to cover Lixin Real Estate, and Lixin Real Estate’s first round of financing has long been completed.

Huo Guantai said: "He Sheng, with your words, I feel relieved."

"I, Huo Guantai, will never do anything I'm sorry for in my life. I will definitely do what I promised you. Is there anything you need help with?"

He Dingxian shook his head: "I'll let you know if necessary."

"good."

Huo Guantai hung up the phone. He Dingxian could tell from his tone that the relationship between him and HSBC was at loggerheads. He put the phone down and looked at the news in the newspaper, feeling more courageous.

The "Anti-Corruption Investigation Bill" is approved by the Hong Kong Governor's Government, which is actually a possibility in itself. Although the Hong Kong government has always been known as a free government and does not interfere in the operation of the business community, the business community itself requires management to develop in an orderly manner.

If a government does not manage the business community, the business community will continue to pursue huge profits and use violence, official-business collusion and other means to create monopolies and restrict business vitality. At the same time, failed businessmen will turn to black industries, further breeding evil and destroying the business environment.

Look at Europe and the United States for monopoly, and black production in Southeast Asia.

These are two typical examples, but there are far more than just two places in the world.

The Hong Kong government's economic freedom, to put it bluntly, means financial freedom. It hopes to attract more investment and accelerate the development of Hong Kong Island, not freedom from crime.

The Anti-Corruption Investigation Bill, proposed by the Commissioner of Police himself, is a good thing in the eyes of the Governor. It can not only implement legitimate purges on the business community through the Anti-Corruption Bill, but also reap benefits from the business community through the Anti-Corruption Bill. A batch of leeks.

What's wrong?

The government of the British Empire and foreign companies have always had a relationship of full cooperation and full competition. Both sides cannot do without the other, but neither wants the other to step on their heads. Moreover, Commissioner of Police McIntosh is a confidant of the Governor of Hong Kong. The Governor himself will be inclined to support the bill proposed by McIntosh. Since it is beneficial to the government, he will definitely support it strongly.

Even if the Governor of Hong Kong knows that the bill will increase the power of the police force, what is the regret if the power is in the hands of his own people?

The Governor of Hong Kong is increasing his power.

He Dingxian took advantage of a loophole and seized the strategic opportunity very well.

"As long as the bill can be passed, all problems will be non-issue."

In contrast, HSBC, Swire, and even all the British-owned foreign companies behind it will try their best to prevent the bill from passing.

Fok Kwan-tai also knew that passing a bill was not easy. Even if the Hong Kong Governor's Government was willing to support it, the British-owned foreign banks would still be able to stop it, because most of the members were successfully elected with the sponsorship and support of the foreign banks.

Today, there are a total of forty legislative seats on Hong Kong Island, and more than half of them are involved with Ying Yang.

There are only six Chinese MPs, and each seat is owned by high-ranking Chinese.

These high-class Chinese have Chinese skin, but they are not necessarily willing to work for Chinese capital.

As a qualified businessman, Huo Guantai cannot place all his hopes on He Dingxian, because after breaking with HSBC, he can no longer sit on the sidelines and join the battle himself!

"A Feng, prepare the boat." Huo Guantai opened the door, walked out of the office, looked at his subordinates who were drinking tea and resting, and said, "I want to go north to see the boss."

A Feng's expression was stern and he said solemnly: "Yes, Huo Sheng."

If Huo Guantai had no trump card at all, how could he dare to break with HSBC? Just rely on He Dingxian! He Dingxian is not his father. His father has passed away long ago. You have to rely on yourself!

You can't rely on others to make all your choices. Whenever something big happens, just relying on others won't work.

When he was a child, he knew that friends were just helping others, fellow travelers, heading towards the same goal, but if he wanted to go to the end and be the first, he had to be strong-willed!

"Azai, keep an eye on these people and take pictures of everyone they see every day. Send the pictures to my house. I want to know everything." He Dingxian took out a few photos of the senior managers of foreign companies, including HSBC President Qi Yaolin, Swire President Xuan Sha, as well as their secretaries and vice presidents of two banks.

Lardboy took the stack of photos and said with a simple smile: "Leave it to me, big boss."

He Dingxian wanted to take precautions and obtain evidence of bribery from several people before the bill was passed.
