Chapter 231 The Legislative Battle

Chapter 231 The Legislative Battle

Qi Yaolin was taller than Huo Guantai, looking at Huo Guantai in front of him was like looking at a dwarf, but a dwarf dared to step forward and grab his collar, his eyes were like a tiger, staring at him fiercely.

Xuan Sha, Taigu Taiban, got up quickly, holding a cigar in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Little monkey!"

"Let go of Mr. Qi!"

Qi Yaolin recovered from the scolding, stared at the little dwarf's face, with anger in his eyes, grabbed the hand stick beside the chair, and swung the stick to throw it at Huo Guantai.

However, Huo Yingdong was strong and strong. He reached out and grabbed the stick in his palm, and then pulled it hard, grabbed the stick and threw it to the ground: "Fuck you!"

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

"In business, we can talk about everything, but as long as you dare to threaten me, there is nothing to talk about." He waved his hand, cursed a few words, and turned to leave angrily: "What about love, big deal, let's die together!" !"

Qi Yaolin watched Huo Guantai open the door and strode out, with a touch of fear in his heart.

Huo Guantai tidied his suit at the door, adjusted his mood, and said, "Bastard, dare to ride my shit on my head?"

Xuan Sha looked at the handcuffs on the ground in the room, then at the sluggish Qi Sir, and said unwillingly, "Qi Dapan."

"HSBC will fully support Swire Properties."

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

A look of ecstasy appeared on Xuan Sha's face.

Qi Yaolin couldn't be happy in his heart, because he knew that Huo Yingdong was a rare talent, and even a tough opponent. How much money did HSBC make from Huo Yingdong?

Hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars!

This is the most courageous and daring one among all the Chinese businessmen supported by HSBC.

However, as a leading foreign firm, HSBC pursues the idea of ​​holding shares. If it wants to do it, it will be the second largest shareholder of the investment company, or even the largest shareholder.

HSBC sometimes takes the initiative to manipulate the holding company, carry out mergers and acquisitions, bankruptcy, appointment of the president and other series of decisions

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

he does not want!

Then you can only fight!

"White-haired ghost, I'm driving an airship, transporting goods ship by ship. When you bump into pirates, you were drinking coffee in the office. Now use the name of benefactor to suppress me?" Huo Guantai sat in the car, blowing the sea breeze, Cursing: "Fuck you!"

"Brother Tai, why don't you ask Big Bideng to call someone?" the driver, A Feng, said aloud.

Huo Guantai shook his head: "No need."

"If he dares to touch me."

"You will send his family home with explosives on your back."

Ah Feng is a young man with a bald head, a scar on his face, and a capable figure. He said immediately: "No problem."

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

In fact, if HSBC can make profits and talk about it, Huo Guantai may not necessarily stand firmly on He Dingxian's side. In business matters, profit comes first, but the ghost is domineering and always wants to control him.

In the shipping industry, it is no problem to be manipulated by others. If you sell contraband, you will always have to pay a confession. If you go ashore to make real estate, you still come to dominate me.

The clay figurine is still angry, let alone Airship Tai?

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

He read the bill carefully, and took a long breath: "He Sheng has been prepared for a long time!"

It is impossible to submit this bill temporarily because there is no time at all. It must be He Shengbei's second-hander. No wonder Ghost is so impatient.

Afterwards, Huo Guantai read the newspapers on the desktop again, and several newspapers had folded corners.

This is the job of the secretary. If the boss is interested in reading other pages, he can read them by himself. If they involve business news and policy news, they must be marked in advance.

"This time, the key to the fight is not the silver bullet, but the policy." Using the silver bullet to fight price wars and acquisition wars is a low-level operation in the confrontation between large companies, and it often happens within the capital group, because after the silver bullet is finished, there is still time to fight. It can be said that unless one party is burned to death, it will not affect the foundation of the company, and even open up the markets of both companies.

Confrontation with policies is a life-and-death battle between different capital groups.

A new policy, a new law, can cause an industry to collapse, or it can bring unlimited development potential, once it is passed, it will completely strangle the other side.

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

If the Chinese capital can win the anti-corruption power, at the political level, it will be the first time to gain a weapon to attack the British capital, and the capital of both sides will have something to play with in the future.

The more cruel kind of business war is the unpretentious means of poisoning, theft, robbery, and murder. It has risen from money offensive to physical destruction.

"This is a policy battle!" Huo Guantai secretly sighed that he was lucky that he didn't stand with the ghost, otherwise, no matter how much profit cooperation he reached with the ghost, he might be imprisoned after the bill was promulgated.

At that time, it was useless to earn more, and it was 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, answering the phone with his right hand: "Brother Tai."

"The Taipan from HSBC is looking for me."

Huo Guantai said bluntly: "I didn't agree, there is no talk with HSBC."

He Dingxian is full of confidence: "The money that HSBC does not lend, Eastern Bank will lend to you, and Eastern Bank will be your treasury from now on!"

Now, if the Eastern Bank conducts another round of deposit absorption and launches a few high-interest funds, it can also attract tens of millions of funds.

Because the Chinese and ghosts in the police force are getting richer and richer.

The money is all reserves of the Eastern Bank.

The guys in the police force have been saving in Dongfang Bank for two years, and they have already cultivated a sense of trust. It is very easy to continue to absorb savings.

Many dare not say that it is not a problem to cover Lixin Real Estate, and the first round of financing of Lixin Real Estate has already ended.

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

"I, Huo Guantai, will never do anything I'm sorry for. I will definitely do what I promise you. Is there anything I can help you with?"

He Dingxian shook his head: "I'll let you know if there is a need."

"it is good."

Huo Guantai hung up the phone, and He Dingxian could hear the strained relationship between him and HSBC in his tone. He put down the phone and looked at the news in the newspaper, feeling more courageous in his heart.

It is actually possible for the "Anti-Corruption Investigation Bill" to be approved by the Hong Kong Governor's Office.Although the Hong Kong government has always claimed to be a free government and does not interfere with the operation of the business world, the business world itself needs management to develop orderly.

If a government does not manage the business world, the business world will continue to pursue huge profits, use violence, government-business collusion and other means to generate monopoly and limit business vitality. At the same time, failed businessmen will turn to illegal production, further breed crime and destroy the business environment.

Monopoly depends on Europe and the United States, black production in Southeast Asia.

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

The economic freedom of the Hong Kong government, to put it bluntly, is freedom of funds. It hopes to attract more investment and accelerate the development of Hong Kong Island, not freedom of crime.

The "Anti-Corruption Investigation Act" proposed by the Commissioner of Police himself is a good thing in the eyes of the Governor. It can not only implement the "Anti-Corruption Act" to clean up the business world, but also pass the "Anti-Corruption Act" to harvest money in the business world. A batch of leeks.

What's wrong?

The government of the British Empire and foreign firms have always been in a relationship of full cooperation and full competition. Both sides cannot do without each other, but neither wants the other to step on their own heads.Moreover, the Commissioner of Police, McIntosh, is a confidant of the Governor of Hong Kong. The Governor himself will tend to support the bill proposed by McIntosh. Since it is beneficial to the government, it must be strongly supported.

Even if the Governor of Hong Kong knows that the bill will increase the power of the police force, what is the pity that 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 in the future, all problems will not be a problem."

In contrast, HSBC, Swire, and all the British foreign firms behind them will do their best to prevent the passage of the bill.

Huo Guantai also knows that it is not easy to pass a bill. Even if the Hong Kong Governor's Office is willing to support it, the British foreign firms are still able to stop it, because most of the members were successfully elected with the sponsorship and support of the foreign firms.

Today, there are a total of [-] legislative councilors on Hong Kong Island, more than half of which are related to the British firm.

There are only six Chinese members of parliament, each of which is owned by high-ranking Chinese.

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

As a qualified businessman, Huo Guantai can't pin all his hopes on He Dingxian, because after breaking with HSBC, he can no longer just sit on the sidelines, and has to go to the battle in person!

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

Ah Feng's expression turned cold, and he said solemnly: "Yes, Huo Sheng."

How dare Huo Guantai break with HSBC if he doesn't have any cards?Just rely on He Dingxian!He Dingxian is not his old man, his old man has long since died.You have to rely on yourself!

You can't rely on others to make all choices. When it comes to major events, just relying on others will not make a difference.

When he was a child, he knew that his friends were just helping, fellow travelers, were going towards the same goal, but if he wanted to go to the end and be No.1, his fists had to be hard!

"Azi, keep an eye on these people, take pictures of everyone they meet every day, and send the pictures to my home. I want to know everything." President Qi Yaolin, Swire President Xuan Sha, their secretaries, and the vice presidents of the two banks.

Lard Boy took the stack of photos and said with a simple and honest smile, "Leave it to me, boss."

He Dingxian wants to plan ahead, and before the bill is passed, he needs to get evidence of bribery from several people.
