   "My money! My money!"

  In a securities company in Xiangjiang, as soon as the market opened today, many investors poured in, wanting to see how the stocks they bought were doing.

   There was also a newspaper in their hands, which described in detail what happened at the Regent Hotel last night, and described how Chen Songqing was taken away by the police in his villa late at night.

  Such reports have given many people a bad feeling that the already shaky Xiangjiang stock market may be pushed into the abyss because of this incident.

  Everyone came to the securities firm where they bought the stocks with a fluke heart, wanting to see if a miracle would happen.

   But the situation is obviously more pessimistic than they expected. After the market opened, it was visible to the naked eye that all listed companies in Xiangjiang experienced different declines.

   Even the stock prices of the two listed companies, Jardine and Landmark, which had been strong before, also fell.

   It is important to know that these two listed groups control each other. Before being acquired by Jiaku, they were the first-class consortia in Xiangjiang.

Later, Jardine Land was acquired by Jiaku. After more than a year of development, it sold some non-performing assets and cooperated with other companies under Jiaku for new projects. The combined asset value has vaguely surpassed HSBC. up.

   But these two groups are also experiencing a decline in stock prices.

   What is even more frightening is that someone is now selling HSBC's stock, which also caused HSBC's stock price to fall.

  The decline in the stock prices of these three listed companies directly led to the decline in the stock prices of all listed companies after Xiangjiang opened today.

  The Hang Seng Index even dropped 100 points at the opening.

  Roughly estimated, the Hong Kong stock market at this time has lost tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars.

  The most helpless thing is that this situation is not the end, but the beginning, which means that there will be an even bigger drop today.

  Subsequently, various gossips began to spread in the market, and some people even preached convincingly: "There are children of the Xiangjiang super family selling stocks to cash in a large scale, and they will withdraw from the Xiangjiang market forever."

   Now no one is going to pursue the authenticity of this kind of rhetoric, but everyone understands that if this continues, the Hang Seng Index of the Xiangjiang stock market may fall below 900 points today!

   "Fall below 900 points?"

  Chu Huan is currently listening to Xu Yi's report at No. 12 Mount Kellie Road.

At this time, Hong Kong’s situation has surpassed that of another time and space. Although the Hong Kong stock market in another time and space has also suffered a major blow at this time, the Hang Seng Index has remained above 1100 points, but now it may fall below 900 points. The situation exceeds that of another time and space. a space-time.

   "What is the stock price situation of the three groups of HSBC, Jardine, and Hongkong Land?"

   Chu Huan asked.

  Xu Yi replied: "After some of our publicity and selling, the decline of the three companies is that HSBC fell by more than 8.89%, Jardine fell by 10.65%, and Landmark fell by 11.37%."

The stock prices of HSBC, Jardine, and Hongkong Land fell. Of course, Chu Huan gave way. Chinese Land is Jardine Harmony, the largest shareholder of Hongkong Land. At the same time, it also holds a lot of HSBC stocks. It wants to let the stock prices of these three stocks fall. , it may not be so easy at other times, but it is too easy at this time.

  As long as there is a large number of sell-offs in the stocks of these three groups in the market, it will definitely cause the stock prices of these three stocks to fall.

   "Does anyone else know about this?" Chu Huan asked.

  Chu Huan asked Huaren Real Estate to sell some of the stocks of these three companies. Naturally, it was not to give up the equity of these three companies. It was more because Chu Huan wanted to create a situation of ice and fire for Xiangjiang today.

   If there is no accident, Jiaku will enter the market tomorrow, and then the stocks of these three companies can be recovered at a low price.

  However, Chu Huan is not very optimistic about the real situation, because Chu Huan understands that at this time, it is impossible for anyone to take over the order, even if the stocks of the three listed companies HSBC, Jardine, and Landmark are being sold.

  Their sell-off is at most just a show!

But no matter what, Chu Huan still doesn't want more people to know about this matter. It's not good to hear. If outsiders know, they will probably blame Jiaku for pushing Xiangjiang's stock market into the abyss at this time. , if this is the case, all of Chu Huan's previous actions were in vain.

  Xu Yi shook his head and said: "Boss, don't worry, no one knows about this matter. I found a British securities firm to do this, and this securities firm has already been acquired by one of our companies in England!"

  Chu Huan nodded in satisfaction, "Now we have to see how everyone survived this morning!"

  This morning will be the most difficult morning for Xiangjiang, everyone is looking forward to a miracle.

   But they don't know what kind of miracle it is.

  Overseas Trust Bank Mong Kok Branch!

   Today, the expected situation finally appeared here, some people couldn't withdraw their deposits.

  Once such a situation happens, panic will instantly spread to the entire crowd queuing up to withdraw money, and commotion begins to appear. The policemen at the scene try their best to maintain order at the scene, but they can't stop the angry crowd at all.

   In the hall, there is also a mess now. Although the bank staff are trying their best to maintain the order on the scene, they are still unable to do so.

   "It's all Jiaku, all of this is Jiaku!"

   "That's right, it's all due to Jiaku."

  Suddenly, there was an abrupt voice in the angry hall.

  In the lobby of the Mong Kok branch of the Overseas Trust Bank, it was said that Jiaku was to blame for this incident.

  The two were dressed like ordinary Xiangjiang people, there was nothing unusual about them.

  “I read the newspaper today, and the newspaper said that Xiangjiang’s current situation can only be solved by Jiaku, and as Xiangjiang’s largest consortium, Jiaku should stand up and support the market when something like this happens to Xiangjiang’s economy.

  Before they rescued Sun Hung Kai Bank, it was a billion Hong Kong dollars, and it was taken out in a few hours. A warehouse must have more cash in reserve. "

  The man greeted the eyes of the crowd and preached loudly.

"That's right, the reason why Jiaku can become the largest consortium in Xiangjiang is because of our support. Now Xiangjiang's economy has such a big problem, the Hong Kong government doesn't care about us, HSBC doesn't care about us, Jiaku can't ignore us, he is us The Jiaku of Xiangjiang people!"

   "I heard that some people have already gone to sit-in at the Chinese Walk in Jiaku. Everyone, come with us. As long as there are enough of us, I believe Jiaku will definitely come forward for us!"

   More and more people agreed, and more and more people began to respond to that person's proposal.

  The lobby manager of Mong Kok Branch of Overseas Trust Bank and other staff members of the branch looked at the scene and fell into confusion.

  What's the situation, you don't come to trouble our overseas trust bank, but to trouble an irrelevant company?

   What the **** is going on here?

  When did Hong Kong people become so weird?

   Soon the people in the hall were divided into two groups, one group stayed here and wanted to withdraw money, and the other group followed the booing people to go to the Chinese people.

   Such a situation was staged in various banks in Xiangjiang where there was a crowding trend, and then pedestrians on the street saw that teams began to gather on the road and flocked to the Chinese Bank.

   "What the **** is going on? Why do these people go to the Chinese?"

  A police officer on duty showed a curious expression when he saw this situation. Is what happened before him so strange?

   "Of course someone guided you, have you forgotten what the boss told you?"

   Some high-ranking policemen explained the situation to those around them.

   At this time, the curious people realized that their leader had indeed explained before that if there are crowds going to the Chinese line, there is no need to stop them, but they must maintain good order.

   "And you read the newspapers these days, but there has been a voice saying that Jiaku, as the largest consortium in Xiangjiang, should show their sense of social responsibility at this time and save Xiangjiang's economy!"

   "Isn't this trying to catch ducks on the shelves? Jiaku is an ordinary company. Although it's a bit bigger, a company is a company. Why should it help other companies?"

   These years, Jiaku has been donating to the police station, which can be said to be the largest number of donations among Xiangjiang enterprises, so at this time, seeing that Jiaku is about to be surrounded by people, I am still a little worried.

"The truth is this, but can you tell these people? Now these people may lose their wealth and lives. They are like drowning people, and Jiaku has now become the last straw. If you can’t help them, they will all grab it!”

"Okay! But to be honest, if Jiaku is really capable, I also hope that Jiaku can come forward to save Xiangjiang's situation. If things continue like this, I don't know how many people will jump off the building! "

   "Don't talk about others, I want to jump off a building now, the Hang Seng Index has collapsed, and my net worth has been halved at least!"

.

  The situation of these people flocking to the Chinese Bank was soon known by those who have been paying attention to this matter in Xiangjiang.

   "You really went to the Chinese?"

  In the Hong Kong Governor's Mansion, Yoder didn't know whether to be happy or unhappy after learning the news.

The current situation is fueled by the Hong Kong Governor's Office, but seeing that these Xiangjiang citizens actually chose to seek help from Jiaku instead of their Hong Kong government when they encountered such a crisis, this made Youde's My heart is full of loss.

  Because this clearly shows the status of Jiaku in the hearts of Xiangjiang people.

  Happily, everyone went to the Chinese, and the pressure on my side was less.

  Under such moral kidnapping, should Jiaku make a move?

  However, for the current situation, Yoder didn't take all of his thoughts, or even just a little bit of his thoughts.

  Because Youde is more focused on the TV, which is showing the situation of Mrs. Thatcher in the capital. In this matter, the TVB news channel is still very powerful.

  Sent a team to the capital early, and the full name was to live broadcast the itinerary of Mrs. Thatcher's trip.

  At this time, Mrs. Thatcher was already in the second round of negotiations with the people in the capital. Although they couldn't capture the specific content of the negotiations, it was always good to watch.

   More importantly, Mrs. Thatcher will meet with the old man in the capital tomorrow, and Yoder understands that this is the most important meeting.

   "Now watch tomorrow's meeting!"

Youde looked at the picture on TV and preached with a dignified expression. After he arrived in Xiangjiang in May, he had been to the capital once, in order to serve as a prelude to Mrs. Thatcher’s visit, but the capital The attitude over there made Youde a little worried.

.

   "Did you really go to Jiaku?"

  Roy Bentley listened to Pu Weishi's report, showing a surprised expression.

  At this time, Roy Bentley's thoughts are actually similar to Yode's, and even the feelings are stronger. After all, Roy Bentley has been in Xiangjiang for a longer time.

  In Roy Bentley's mind, even when Jiaku surpassed HSBC in scale, Roy Bentley never doubted HSBC's status in Xiangjiang.

   Once upon a time, only HSBC could determine the economic fate of Xiangjiang, but now that Xiangjiang’s economy has problems, these people in Xiangjiang did not come to HSBC for help, but instead found Jiaku?

   "No matter what the future situation of Xiangjiang, Pu Weishi, we should bring HSBC to Europe!"

  Roy Bentley was sitting in his office. The Kyushu TV in the office was on, and he was also paying attention to the situation in the capital.

  Pu Weishi looked at Roy Bentley in surprise, and said: "Mr. Taipan, this time the Hong Kong people went to Jiaku is actually caused by someone deliberately fanning the flames and attracting talents!"

Roy Bentley shook his head and said: "The external conditions seem to be like this, but think about it, if Jiaku does not have this influence, no matter how many people encourage them, those people will not go to Jiaku The real reason is that the citizens of Xiangjiang now have a recognized attitude towards the influence of Jiaku, and it is precisely this attitude that makes them so encouraged!"

Pu Weishi still didn't want to admit this matter, and said: "Mr. Taipan, it is only temporary now. If the negotiations in the capital are beneficial to us, then we can still rely on our relationship with the Hong Kong government in the future. The relationship has grown stronger and developed.

   No one can be strong all the time, neither can Jiaku. I think our future is still promising! "

   "Hehe!" Roy Bentley smiled bitterly, and said to Pu Weishi: "Do you know how I got the position of HSBC executive back then?"

Pu Weishi smiled awkwardly and did not answer Roy Bentley's question. After all, everyone knew about it. It was because of Chu Huan's support that Roy Bentley defeated Shen Bi and sat on the seat. HSBC executive position thing.

   Now Roy Bentley is sitting in the position of HSBC's top class, but it also allows Chu Huan's Jiaku to complete the surpassing of HSBC during this period of time.

  Strictly speaking, this period of history can be called the black history of HSBC!

   "There's nothing to be embarrassed about!" Roy Bentley waved his hand and said, "Even if you don't say this, others will say it behind your back!"

   "Mr. Taipan, I." Pu Weishi wanted to explain.

Roy Bentley waved his hand and interrupted Pu Weishi's words: "I didn't mean to explain anything when I told you this, and I didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what I did at the time. , I have been reviewing the development of HSBC and Jiaku over the years, and I have come to a conclusion, do you know?"

   "What kind of conclusion?" Pu Weishi couldn't help asking.

Roy Bentley said: "The conclusion is that no matter whether I take the position of HSBC taipan or Shen Bi takes the position of taipan, they can't actually stop the development of Jiaku. Since entering the business world, I have never seen For a person like Chu Huan, he is more sensitive to the market than any businessman in the world, and he can always stand in the most correct position and make the most correct choice.

I admit that my ability is not as good as Shen Bi's, but Shen Bi's ability is also not as good as Chu Huan's. This is why I transferred Shen Bi back from Japan back then, even though Shen Bi and I were already working hard Chasing after Chu Huan's footsteps.

  But in the end, I found helplessly that the distance between HSBC and Jiaku has been slowly increasing.”

  Looking at Roy Bentley with a lot of emotion, Pu Weishi didn't know how to respond to Roy Bentley's words.

  However, it is obvious that Roy Bentley did not actually think about asking Pu Weishi to answer anything. What he said now was actually out of emotion, and he also wanted to tell Pu Weishi the future situation by the way.

"Shen Bi and I will leave HSBC sooner or later, and then HSBC will enter your era. I just told you so much, but I actually want to tell you one thing. The development of Chu Huan and Jiaku has already It is unstoppable, especially after this incident in Xiangjiang, Jiaku's influence in Xiangjiang will reach its peak.

   At that time, Jiaku and Xiangjiang will be equated with each other.

Although HSBC will put more energy into Europe and the United States in the future, we cannot give up on the development of Xiangjiang. As long as we still want to develop in Xiangjiang, we will actually develop under the shadow of Jiaku, so I hope you can give up in the future. The so-called personal thoughts, don't put HSBC in the first place in Xiangjiang anymore, and cooperate with Jiaku well. Only in this way will we not have any problems in the development of Xiangjiang.

  At the same time, I also hope that you can tell this to your successor in the future! "

  Pu Weishi was really stunned this time, because Roy Bentley's words contained too much content.

   Let him not digest for a while!

   "Mr. Taipan, do you mean that Jiaku will really lead Xiangjiang out of the current predicament this time?"

Roy Bentley nodded, and said helplessly: "This is something I just figured out just now. At this point, I think Jiaku will come forward to solve this matter soon. It should be in one or two days." God!"

Pu Weishi said in surprise: "Mr. Taipan, is this too exaggerated? The people in the company have already calculated that if they want to save Xiangjiang's current economy, it will take at least hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars to complete it. How could Jiaku have So much money?"

  Roy Bentley chuckled and said, "I don't know if Jiaku has the money, but I believe Chu Huan will be able to come up with the money.

  Xiangjiang is the base camp of Jiaku, Chu Huan will not watch Xiangjiang really fall into desperation, because only the higher the status of Xiangjiang, the higher the status of Jiaku.

  I have known Chu Huan for so many years. How many times have I seen outsiders say that there is a problem with the funds of the Jiaku, but every time, those people will be slapped in the face very quickly.

  This is also the reason why I just told you so much. The funds in Chu Huan's hands seem to be inexhaustible. Anyway, I have never really seen Chu Huan short of money! "

  Pu Weishi said a little excitedly: "If this is the case, can we also buy the bottom now?"

Roy Bentley shook his head again and smiled wryly: "Do we still have more liquidity? The company is now going all out to acquire Midland Bank. In order to complete this acquisition, we have not used it for many years even before this." The way to issue new shares.

  Moreover, it is the current situation of Xiangjiang, why don't people from outside come to HSBC?

   It’s not because the Carrian incident has had a major impact on our HSBC. In fact, no matter what we do at this time, it will cause the citizens of Xiangjiang to distrust our HSBC.

  If this is the case, the loss outweighs the gain. "

  Pu Weishi nodded first, but then his face changed drastically, and he said eagerly: "Two questions."

   "First, it was Chu Huan who actually facilitated our merger with Midland Bank. Can I think that at that time Chu Huan had already started to plot against us?

Second, once our merger with Midland Bank is completed, HSBC will relocate to London in a disguised form. As you said just now, Mr. Taipan, no matter what happens now, it will affect Hong Kong people’s suspicion of HSBC. , so Chu Huan facilitated our merger with Midland Bank this time, is he not only calculating our other assets at this time, but also calculating our other assets? "

Roy Bentley showed a gratified expression, and said: "You and Shen Bi and I thought about it together, and we both think so, but now the two of us still can't figure out whether Chu Huan wants to be in the hands of our HSBC. What to get?"

  Pu Weishi shook his head and said, "Is there nothing we can do?"

Roy Bentley smiled wryly again, and said: "There is no other way, and now we are on the journey according to Chu Huan's plan, unless we give up the merger with Midland Bank and fully defend the situation on Xiangjiang's side , maybe this can stop Chu Huan's plan!"

   Pu Weishi understood what Roy Bentley meant, and they had already discussed the future development of HSBC.

  If they abandon the merger with Midland Bank now, they will actually abandon HSBC's strategic plan of the triangle stool, and they will still be imprisoned in Xiangjiang.

If everything in Xiangjiang remains the same, then it’s okay to say that at most the two sides will fight against each other. case of advantage.

   It is foreseeable that HSBC's scale in Xiangjiang will become smaller and smaller, and the market will be slowly eroded by these two banks. Perhaps in ten or twenty years, HSBC will become an ordinary bank in Xiangjiang.

   At that time, they will lose both the Xiangjiang market and the European market.

  For HSBC, this gamble has a choice, but in fact it has no choice, because the price of losing is too high!

   "It seems that Xiangjiang is about to change the time!"

  Roy Bentley smiled complicatedly, and said, "The sky has changed a long time ago!"

   Having said that, Roy Bentley called the Chinese Bank.

"Hi Miss Xu, I'm Roy Bentley, please tell Director Chu that I have something important to ask him, no matter what his plan is, I hope everyone can sit down and have a good time. Let's talk about it!"

  Xu Yi listened to Roy Bentley's words on the phone and fell silent. He didn't expect Roy Bentley to say these words to himself at this time.

   "What did he guess?"

  After hanging up the phone, Xu Yi thought silently.

  However, this did not delay Xu Yi from telling Chu Huan about it.

   After listening to Chu Huan, he was silent for a while, and said: "Tell Roy, just say that I will meet him at the Chinese Walk tomorrow!"

  Xu Yi asked: "Is it morning? Or afternoon?"

This time is still very particular. If it is in the morning, it means that Chu Huan will meet Roy Bentley before the decisive battle. If it is in the afternoon, everything has actually been settled up.

  Chu Huan said: "It's morning!"

  Xu Yi nodded and said, "Understood!"

  After hanging up the phone with Chu Huan, Xu Yi sat on her desk and fell into deep thought. Obviously she was still thinking about Roy Bentley's meeting with Chu Huan this time.

  But at this time, Wu Shuhan came to Xu Yi's office and said: "Sister Xu, there are more and more people outside the Chinese shop. Now there are at least a thousand people. When are we going out?"

  For this final battle, Wu Shuhan has already returned to Xiangjiang from his hometown, and now Feng Jingren is following Chu Huan's orders at No. 12, Mount Kellie Road!

  Xu Yi looked at the time, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon, and said: "Wait a little longer, we can go out at half past four!"

  Wu Shuhan nodded and said: "Then I will notify the security department to maintain the order at the scene!"

  Xu Yi nodded!

.

  People who were looking for various things in front of the Chinese shop suddenly saw people busy in the building at this time. They were holding amplified speakers and loudspeakers outside, obviously they had something to announce.

   Seeing such a situation, everyone became nervous. They really didn't know whether they were waiting for good news or bad news this time!

  The reporters at the scene, after seeing such a situation, instantly gave up taking pictures of these sitting people, and quickly moved forward, for fear of missing the scene for a while.

  In such a situation of endless calls, the time came to 4:30 in the afternoon, and Xu Yi, the general manager of Jiaku, came out.

   Seeing that it wasn't Chu Huan made everyone at the scene a little disappointed, but they still stared at Xu Yi closely, wanting to know what kind of news she brought to everyone.

   "Everyone, I am very sorry to meet you under such circumstances!"

  Xu Yi held a microphone and preached loudly.

   There was a mess below, everyone was asking what Jiaku was thinking, and they were all praying that Jiaku could come forward to save Xiangjiang's economy at this time.

Xu Yi didn't answer these questions, but just preached loudly: "About Xiangjiang's situation during this period, our Jiaku already knew about it, and we also understand your demands, but this time the matter is too big. Our Jiaku We also need to seriously consider what we should do. I am very sorry to tell you that up to now, we still have not thought of a better way, but please rest assured that at 1:00 noon tomorrow, our library will officially deal with this problem. Thank you everyone for making a positive response to the Hong Kong incident this time!"

  After speaking, Xu Yi walked in directly without answering any questions.

   Everyone present was left with a dazed look on their faces!

   Thank you everyone~ The typo is corrected first and then corrected!
