Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

Chapter 1423 1423 [The wall falls and everyone pushes! 】

Café de France.

Xie Shihao and his daughter Xie Bingqian sat in a secluded place in the coffee shop, waiting for the arrival of HSBC bank executive Lu Kaiser.

It had been almost half an hour, and the big class hadn't been seen yet. Looking outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the coffee shop, the sky was gloomy and the clouds were very low.

Xie Shihao glanced at his impatient daughter, and sighed in his heart, now he understands what it means to be cold and cold in the world, and people's hearts are not old!

Especially now that their Xie family was killed, those who had fawned on Xie's family turned around one after another, lest they avoid it.

What's more, the Xie family's business has been robbed continuously, so the Xie family had to borrow money from the bank frantically, hoping to survive this crisis.

But those banks not only refused to lend money, but also urged Xie's family to repay the loan quickly!

Faced with this embarrassing situation, Xie Shihao's heart was about to die!

This time, Xie Shihao had the cheek to invite this HSBC executive, Mr. Lu Kaiser, but it was also a helpless move.

Prior to this, Kaiser Lu and Xie’s family had a close relationship. Xie Shihao and him were considered friends. On Kaiser Lu Kaiser’s 70th birthday, Xie Shihao personally presented a gold bull worth “100,000” HKD 99 past.

At that time, Kaiser Lu was so moved that he wept bitterly, held Xie Shihao's hands tightly and said that the two would be good brothers for life.

Now that Xie Shihao is in trouble, he thinks of this "good brother" and hopes that he can help.

In the past, Xie Shihao would not have said that he would call and invite this Lu Kaiser to meet him personally, even if he was notified, Lu Kaiser would rush over, but today, he has not arrived.

Xie Bingqian looked at her watch and already had a bad feeling.

Xie Shihao still didn't give up, and comforted his daughter: "Be safe and don't be impatient."

After waiting for another seven or eight minutes, I saw Lu Kaiser, the ghost boss of HSBC, walking into the coffee shop with a briefcase.

Xie Shihao breathed a sigh of relief, first stood up and waved to Kaiser Lu, then turned to his daughter and said, "Look, be patient! Now that Taipan Lu is here, our company is saved."

But Xie Bingqian said: "I always feel that things are not that simple. If he intends to help us, he should come on time. How can he delay for half a day like this?"

While talking, Lu Kaiser came to the front: "I'm sorry, I'm busy with business, some things have been delayed! Please forgive me, Mr. Xie and Ms. Xie!"

"It's okay, we've only been here not long." Xie Shihao smiled and invited Kaiser Lu to sit down.

Kaiser Lu put the briefcase on the chair next to him, unbuttoned his suit, and then ordered coffee to have a detailed talk with Xie's father and daughter.

Kaiser Luc is forty-five years old this year, just when a man is in the prime of life. As the head class of HSBC Bank in Bangkok, Kaiser Lu has done an outstanding job and was even awarded by the British headquarters.

But Kaiser Lu is not satisfied with this, he feels that he is still very young, and he still has great ambitions - he wants to surpass his predecessor Shen Bi and become the strongest class in HSBC's history.

Who is Shen Bi?

Hong Kong taipan Shen Bi's current name can be said to be known to everyone.

With the backing of Shinhwa Group, the current Shen Bi is almost the "uncrowned king" of HSBC Hong Kong, and a single sentence can shake the British headquarters.

"Mr. Lu Kaiser, I'm sorry to invite you here in such weather. You must already know the reason why I invited you here. I remember well. You took the initiative to find me a month ago and said that your bank has sufficient funds and needs You completed your business and made a large loan, but at that time our Xie Company really had no plan to expand our business, so we did not agree to your loan request."

"It's different now. Our company under the Xie family has a problem with the flow of funds, so we want to borrow five million from your bank. Of course, the more the better, if possible, eight million or ten million is also possible!" Xie Shi Howe sat across from Kaiser Lu and carefully considered his tone.

After the waitress who was in charge of serving the coffee bowed and bowed to leave, she continued to lower her voice to Kaiser Lu, the HSBC waiter on the opposite side: "Of course, Mr. Kaiser Lu, I understand the rules. If you can help me, then you can Get a commission from it! Yes, I will try my best to meet your request, I just ask you to help me get through this difficulty—you said, we are good friends, good brothers, right?"

Kaiser Lu can be said to be one of the best figures in the entire financial circle in Bangkok. As the head of HSBC, if even Kaiser Lu can't help Xie Shihao, then let alone others.

Lu Kaiser's face with two big bags under his eyes was calm, and when Xie Shihao's tone was a little excited, he just stirred the coffee lightly. After the other party finished, he took a deep breath of the aroma of the coffee, and said slowly : "Thailand's local coffee is still not as fragrant as our British Empire's pure coffee. It is surprising that the coffee beans grown at different times and places are different. Of course, after being ground into coffee, the taste is different! According to you Chinese In other words, times change, things change and people change!"

"Mr. Lu Kaiser, my father didn't invite you here to discuss where the coffee is delicious, but to help us, not to listen to you discuss life with us here, to discuss life, do you understand what I mean? Now you just need Tell us, can you lend us a loan and how much? Of course, my father also made it very clear that our Xie family will never treat you badly!" Xie Bingqian said dissatisfied with Lu Kaiser.

Lu Kaiser took a sip of the coffee, put down the coffee cup and looked at Xie Bingqian with a smile. There was a trace of appreciation in his eyes, and a trace of greed, greed for money and beauty!

"Miss Xie, what you are accusing is that I really shouldn't go around in circles and talk about life on this occasion. But Miss Xie, I also hope that you can see the situation clearly. Now is not the time for your Xie family to flourish, and you are no longer that tall You can't climb up to the third young lady who acts recklessly, so I hope you can be more polite to me, and I will be very happy!"

"Lu Kaiser, what do you mean by that? Are you looking down on me? Or do you think that our Xie family is in trouble, so we can be bullied by you?" Xie Bingqian said angrily.

Lu Kaiser shrugged: "Is it alright for me to joke? I didn't expect Miss Xie, you have such a hot temper, how will you get married in the future!"

"Can I get married and go out to care about your business? Who are you, what qualifications do you have to say this? Remember your identity, you are just a bank manager. You used to kneel down and beg my father to help you, but now Instead, it got pulled up! Believe it or not, after our Xie family re-emerged, you have no good fruit to eat?!" Xie Bingqian was scorned by Lu Kaiser, and even her tone became a little vicious.

"Bingqian, why did you talk to Mr. Lu?" Xie Shihao originally thought that Lu Kaiser was too arrogant and wanted to use his daughter to kill him, but he didn't expect his precious daughter to kill him too much, so he hurriedly scolded him.

Lu Kaiser laughed, stood up and said, "I'm sorry, although I have a good temper, I don't like to eat good or bad fruits, so I have something to do, so I'll leave first!"

Xie Shihao panicked, and hurriedly stood up and said: "Mr. Lu, wait a minute! My little girl was outspoken just now, please forgive me!"

Seeing that Lu Kaiser still insisted on leaving, Xie Shihao became anxious, and immediately lowered his face and said: "It's my fault! I have no way to teach girls, can I apologize to you?" After speaking, Xie Shihao was about to personally bow and apologize to Lu Kaiser.

"Mr. Xie, please don't do this!" Lu Kaiser hastily stretched out his hand to support Xie Shihao, "You really beat me to death by doing this!"

"Abba!" Xie Bingqian just stood up.

"Shut up and sit down!" Xie Shihao scolded.

Xie Bingqian sat down with aggrieved face.

Xie Shihao clasped his fists again and said to Lu Kaiser: "I sincerely invite you here today! Please sit down and talk in detail!"

Lu Kaiser sighed, and then sat down again with a helpless look.

Xie Bingqian folded her arms and stared at him angrily.

Lu Kaiser didn't pay any attention to it, just sat down and continued to play Tai Chi with Xie Shihao, going around in circles, just unwilling to express his willingness to help Xie's family and get a loan from the bank.

After all, Xie Shihao is old, and after going around in circles with Lu Kaiser for so long, and drinking so much coffee before, he couldn't hold back anymore, so he left and went to the bathroom.

Watching Xie Shihao leave, Lu Kaiser swept away the slick look just now, and snapped her fingers to ask the waitress to refill Xie Bingqian's coffee, then smiled and said to Xie Bingqian: "Miss Xie, it seems that you have a deep prejudice against me!"

"So what?" Xie Bingqian was very disgusted at the moment Lu Kaiser's eyes were squinting, with malicious intentions.

"But what should I do? I am deeply impressed by you. To be precise, I admire you very much! Especially your extraordinary talent and beauty fascinate me!"

Xie Bingqian said with a cold face, "What do you mean by these words?"

"Don't you understand what I mean? I just want to get closer to you! Yes, the most unbearable beauty in the world, if you are willing to accompany me tonight... Ha ha! Of course, I will reciprocate, you guys I will definitely be obliged to deal with the Xie family!" Kaiser Lu said in a very ambiguous tone. "How about it, think about it?" As he spoke, he actually wanted to reach out and shake Xie Bingqian's little hand.

Xie Bingqian is Bingxue smart, how could she not understand Lu Kaiser's words? Originally, I wanted to endure it, but seeing him messing with me in broad daylight, I couldn't bear it anymore! Immediately said angrily: "Who do you take me for? Despicable guy!" While speaking, Miss Xie Bingqian lost her temper, and directly picked up the water glass next to her and splashed it on Lu Kaiser's face.

Lu Kaiser didn't expect such a result, and was directly thrown straight!

Everyone around turned their heads and cast surprised glances.

Lu Kaiser was extremely embarrassed!

This scene happened to be seen by Xie Shihao who rushed back from the bathroom, "What happened? Bingqian, how can you treat Mr. Lu like this?"

Xie Bingqian puffed up, her pretty face was pale, and she looked desperate, but she didn't know how to explain it to her father.

Lu Kaiser, an old pervert, was not at all embarrassed, took out a handkerchief and wiped his face, and said to Xie Shihao: "It's okay, it's okay! Ms. Xie may have misunderstood me, I just hope that I will be with your Xie family Being able to get close a lot, but I didn't expect Miss Xie to react so strongly, it seems that I really have no fate with your Xie family!"

While talking, Kaiser Lu stood up, picked up the briefcase on the chair and said goodbye to Xie Shihao again in a gentlemanly manner: "This is the fate, farewell!"

Xie Shihao has no good reason to keep him. What's more, he knew his daughter's character well, if he hadn't encountered something he couldn't bear, he wouldn't have acted so radically.

But Xie Shihao still wants to work hard: "Mr. Lu Kaiser, I won't force you to stay if you want to leave, but I still hope you can give me a word, can you loan to our company this time?"

"Loan? Our bank is also in a difficult situation right now. As a senior, I have to consider the interests of the bank. Xie's company...uh, the risk assessment is too big!" Kaiser Lu spread his hands towards Xie Shihao and said with a smile.

Xie Shihao took a deep breath and knew it was over.

Lu Kaiser put on a playful gesture and looked at Xie Bingqian who was still furious: "But Miss Xie, just now I suggested that you still think about it! I'll wait for your call!"

After speaking, Lu Kaiser picked up the briefcase and pretended to be cool and left.

Looking at Lu Kaiser's back, Xie Shihao didn't say a word, just sighed, and sat down on the chair, as if he had aged ten years, and his temples became paler and paler!

…

Leave the cafe.

The dark clouds in the sky have completely suppressed it.

Xie Bingqian accompanied her father to the parking lot, and the driver drove over.

The two got into the car.

Xie Shihao didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, and he didn't ask Xie Bingqian what happened with that Lu Kaiser in the coffee shop, and why there was such a big reaction. And what did Kaiser Lu mean by that last sentence?

At this time, Xie Shihao's abnormal performance made Xie Bingqian very uncomfortable: "Father, I..."

"You did the right thing. Regardless of whether our Xie family has fallen or whether it will go bankrupt or not, our dignity cannot be insulted!" Xie Shihao's voice was flat, no emotion could be heard.

Xie Bingqian let out a long breath: "He is a scumbag! He is a villain who wants to take advantage of others! Father, even if we don't ask him for help, we will definitely be able to get through this crisis! Don't we still have my elder brother and second elder brother? They I also went out to find someone to help, maybe they are waiting for us at home~www.readwn.com~ to bring us good news!"

"You're right! There must be a way for the car to reach the mountain. Besides us, there are your eldest brother and second brother. They may have connections. Let's go back quickly! Drive!" Xie Shihao told the driver.

The car moved slowly.

Xie Shihao fell silent again along the way, just leaning on the chair and closing his eyes.

Looking at the tired and aged father, Xie Bingqian felt a pain in her heart, bit her lips and wanted to say something, but the words stuck in her throat and she couldn't speak.

The car went through the parking lot and onto the main road.

There was a dull thunder above the head, and then raindrops fell on the car window like beans, and in the blink of an eye, the outside world was wet.

Xie Bingqian stared at the rubber tree that was hit by the rainstorm outside, swaying in the strong wind, just like their Xie family, who was in the mire, so lonely and helpless!

"Our Xie family, who can come to rescue?" Xie Bingqian cried out in her heart.
