The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang Chapter 754

  Chapter 754 Resistance from the Hong Kong government (7K chapter, please subscribe~)

  Central, Albert Road on Mid-Levels, Government House!

  Successive Hong Kong governors of Hong Kong will live here, but after the reunification, this place was changed to Government House.

This is not the first time for Chu Huan to come here, but in the past when Chu Huan came, he was always greeted by the smiling face of Hong Kong Governor MacLehose, but Chu Huan understands that coming here today will definitely not be a scene where the guests enjoy themselves .

After getting out of the car, Governor MacLehose's secretary is already waiting here. Although the secretary is also a big shot outside, facing Chu Huan at this time, the secretary of Hong Kong Governor MacLehose is not so kind. Proud.

  With a smile on his face, he politely preached to Chu Huan.

   "Director Chu, Mr. Governor is already waiting for you in the study, please follow me!"

  Chu Huan also said politely: "Thank you!"

   Later, led by the secretary, Chu Huan came to MacLehose's study. Just as Chu Huan thought, Henry Keswick was also sitting here at this time.

   Seeing Chu Huan coming, MacLehose got up in person, and said with a smile: "Chu Director, I invite you here at this time, I hope it doesn't disturb your work!"

  As for Henry Keswick, he was sitting in his seat angrily at this time, and did not get up.

  Chu Huan first smiled and said to MacLehose: "Mr. Governor, you are polite. Actually, I don't have any important things to do."

As for Henry Keswick's attitude, Chu Huan expressed his understanding in his heart. After all, before this, he had put Henry Keswick together. Originally, Henry Keswick wanted to win him into his camp, and he was also willing to bring Hui Kang, 7-11 and even Wharf's Modern Terminals Limited sold to themselves.

   As a result, I was unmoved and still supported Bao Yugang.

  This also led to the loss of Wharf Land, an important strategic group.

Originally, such behavior was enough to make Henry Keswick feel angry, but in the end, he used another trick of addictive disease to kill him. During Henry Keswick's most difficult period, he chose to deal with Jardine, which was regarded as a direct poke Henry Keswick's lung tube was broken.

  Anyone with a temper would not be in a good mood when facing himself.

  So Chu Huan decided to forgive Henry Keswick for his rudeness.

But Henry Keswick was so angry that he almost jumped up after listening to the conversation between Chu Huan and MacLehose. Well, the acquisition of Jardine and the purchase of land are such a big thing in your mouth that there is nothing in Chu Huan's mouth. event.

  In fact, what made Henry Keswick even more angry was that this time Chu Huan bought Jardine Land, it was not him who brought Jiaku in person, but a Chinese real estate company.

  This made Henry Keswick angry at Chu Huan's contempt for them while he was angry at Chu Huan's behavior.

  McLehose also felt a little helpless by what Chu Huan said, but today he is a peacemaker, so naturally he can't say anything serious to Chu Huan.

  Speaking of which, if the so-called identities and political stances of both parties are put aside, MacLehose still admires Chu Huan's matter very much at this time.

   MacLehose was the governor of Hong Kong in 1971, and as far as MacLehose knows, Chu Huan also started to make a fortune at that time, but at that time the two of them had no relationship.

  The fact that the two met for the first time was because Chu Huan wanted the land in Shatian at that time, and he needed that land to build his own satellite city project.

   Then, at that time, MacLehose began to pay attention to Chu Huan, and then he discovered that Chu Huan's wealth and influence were like a rocket booster, and in just a few years, he had grown into the number one person in Xiangjiang!

  That's right, even MacLehose at this time has to admit that if it's just about his influence in Xiangjiang, he might not be as good as Chu Huan.

   What makes MacLehose even more helpless is that his power in Xiangjiang actually comes from Yinglun's appointment, while Chu Huan's right in Xiangjiang is obtained by relying on his bare hands.

   "Mr. Chu, we haven't played together for a long time. When will you have time to play together? I've heard that your game skills have improved by leaps and bounds. It's completely different from when we first met!"

   After inviting Chu Huan to sit down, MacLehose greeted Chu Huan with a smile.

  Chu Huan also said with a smile: "Mr. Governor is too polite. Whenever you want to call, just ask your secretary to call me. I promise to arrive on time!"

  MacLehose said meaningfully: "I'm worried that Mr. Chu is busy with various things in the business field and has no time!"

   "No, now that Jiaku's business is on the right track, it doesn't really matter what I do, it's all done by the subordinates!" Chu Huan continued to reply.

   "Haha, let's make a deal like this!" MacLehose said: "In the future, I will often ask Mr. Chu to play together!"

"my pleasure!"

After exchanging pleasantries, Henry Keswick saw that MacLehose and Chu Huan hadn't gotten to the point, and seemed a little restless. Now that it's time to go to work, Fengwu Securities' purchase points in various areas of Xiangjiang must be It has already started to buy the shares of Jardine Matheson and Hongkong Land. Every time Chu Huan and MacLehose say a word, it will give Huaren Real Estate the time to catch up with him in the controlling stakes of these two groups.

  However, MacLehose did not make Henry Keswick wait any longer, and began to cut to the point of this conversation.

"Mr. Chu invited you over this time. I think you should already know what it is. Jardine has been operating in Xiangjiang for hundreds of years, and it has always been a banner of the Xiangjiang business community. The holders of peace have great influence both in Xiangjiang and in England.

  Of course, Jiaku's influence is equally huge now, and it is also the pride of our Xiangjiang. The two of you are also the pride of Xiangjiang. I very much hope that you can continue to lead your consortium to rectify the name of Xiangjiang's business community in the world business community.

It is true that Jardine has encountered some difficulties now, but I think Jardine's background is still there, so Mr. Keswick found me today. They are very welcome to Director Chu to become a shareholder of Jardine and Landmark. Maybe In the future, they will give you a healthier Jardine, Mr. Chu! "

  MacLehose vaguely expressed his opinion as a peacemaker, that is, he hoped that Chu Huan would give up the acquisition of Jardine and Landmark.

After MacLehose finished speaking, Henry Keswick also looked at Chu Huan seriously. At this time, he wanted to make Chu Huan give up the acquisition of Jardine and Landmark. Henry Keswick knew that it must be unrealistic, so he withdrew. Secondly, I hope that Chu Huan can be a secondary shareholder honestly, instead of challenging their Keswick family's status in these two consortiums.

  Chu Huan sat there, and did not answer MacLehose's question immediately. After pondering for a while, Chu Huan finally spoke in the hopeful eyes of the two.

   "Mr. Governor, I want to know whether this is the opinion of the Hong Kong government, or your personal opinion, Mr. Governor?"

   "Haha!" MacLehose laughed loudly and said, "Xiangjiang has always been an open, free, and inclusive world-class financial city, so all of this is naturally my personal opinion!"

Chu Huan nodded, and then said: "If this is the case, here I want to seriously say sorry to you, Mr. Governor of Hong Kong. Since you also said it just now, Xiangjiang is an open, free, and inclusive society. If it is a world-class financial city, then I think that since the acquisition of Jardine and Hongkong by Chinese Land is a normal business practice, then we have no way to give up the development of our company for the benefit of others!"

  McLehose twitched his brows a few times. He knew that it would be difficult to convince Chu Huan on this matter, but now that Chu Huan refused so bluntly, it really made him lose face.

In fact, MacLehose's original plan was to invite Chu Huan to the Governor's Mansion, and then let Chu Huan and Henry Keswick negotiate without showing up. After all, by doing so, he not only showed his attitude, but also There is no need to worry about being rejected by Chu Huan face to face in the current situation.

  But who made Henry Keswick not only a businessman, but Henry Keswick was also a member of the British House of Commons. It can be said that he also has a certain influence in politics.

   MacLehose didn't want to be rejected by Chu Huan face to face, but Henry Keswick needed MacLehose to sit here in person to put more pressure on Chu Huan.

   "Chu Huan, it is not easy to acquire Jardine!"

  Henry Keswick also knew it was time to speak for himself.

  Chu Huan spoke politely to MacLehose because MacLehose is still the governor of Xiangjiang, the first person in Xiangjiang and the most powerful person.

   But Henry Keswick?

  The two sides are destined to become rivals, so when Chu Huan faced Henry Keswick, he was not so polite.

   "To be honest, I really don't see the difficulty of acquiring Jardine. You can't even keep Wharf in Keswick. Do you think you can keep Jardine?

  If this is the case, today it will not be you who asked Mr. Hong Kong Governor to invite me here, but I asked Mr. Hong Kong Governor to invite you here! "

  After hearing this, MacLehose felt a little more comfortable. Chu Huan still respected him.

   But Henry Keswick couldn't be more comfortable. He was underestimated by Chu Huan, but Chu Huan also told him that he really had nothing to do about it.

After hearing the news this morning, Henry Keswick was stunned. He thought that losing Wharf was the biggest blow to him, but he didn't expect that losing Wharf was just an appetizer, and there was a big one behind. The meal is waiting for me.

   It's just that Henry Keswick's appetite is not so good now, he can't eat at all!

  After learning about this, Henry Keswick immediately started his own way of borrowing money after experiencing a brief anger.

  However, with more than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars in cash, no one in Hong Kong can provide him with this help.

   At this time, Henry Keswick knew that he had reached the most difficult moment. It is very likely that the glory of the Keswick family in Xiangjiang will disappear in his own generation.

  For such a situation, Henry Keswick naturally couldn't accept it.

  Therefore, Henry Keswick approached MacLehose in order to force Chu Huan to give up the acquisition through administrative means.

   Now that Chu Huan has told him exactly what is on his mind, he is about to turn into anger from embarrassment!

   "Chu Huan, Jardine has a history of hundreds of years in Xiangjiang, and our Keswick has also operated in Xiangjiang for hundreds of years. Do you really think you can buy our Jardine so easily?"

  Chu Huan sat there with a calm expression, and said indifferently: "As I said, I welcome all competitions. As long as the Keswick family has the ability, I will be at the poker table, waiting for you to fight at any time!"

  Henry Keswick was angry and said angrily: "Chu Huan, don't forget that Xiangjiang is still in Yinglun's hands."

Chu Huan adjusted his sitting posture, and said: "Don't forget, the most people in Xiangjiang are Chinese, and now your Keswick family is unable to keep Jardine. Even if I don't buy it now, There will be other people to buy it, and when the time comes, Henry, will you still say this wording?"

"That's for the future. What I want is now, Chu Huan, you should know my influence in Xiangjiang and England. Even if you really get the shares of Jardine, I will have a way to prevent you from going smoothly." Take over Jardine!"

  Henry Keswick completely torn face from Chu Huan.

  Chu Huan chuckled and said, "Very well, I can wait and see, but Keswick, you have to know what the consequences of doing this are!"

   "Of course I know!"

   After finishing speaking, Henry Keswick got up directly, then bid farewell to MacLehose, and left MacLehose's office straight away.

   "Director Chu, you are really impulsive this time!"

   After Henry Keswick left, MacLehose made a serious appearance and preached to Chu Huan.

"Today's Jiaku is the blazing sun of Xiangjiang's business community. I know that you, Mr. Chu, have your own connections in England, but you should understand that the Keswick family has been operating in Xiangjiang or England for many years, and its influence is even more important. What ordinary businessmen can compare."

Chu Huan showed his smile again, and then said to MacLehose: "Mr. Governor of Hong Kong, I remember that because of some unpleasant incident, our Jiaku had a private agreement with the Hong Kong government, that is, in Hong Kong As long as our business in Jiaku is legal and compliant, the Hong Kong government can't obstruct us in any way, right?”

   This was the last time Chu Huan announced those decisions on TV, the Hong Kong government finally made a guarantee to Chu Huan.

MacLehose said helplessly: "At this moment and at that moment, Mr. Chu, you should know that no matter what kind of promise, even if it is written in black and white, sometimes it can be ignored. I admit that you are a very Successful businessmen, but sometimes, businessmen have to make way for politics.

Jiaku is now the largest consortium in Xiangjiang, why should you rush for a while, wait for Henry Keswick to be older, and when Jardine's influence is weakened by Jiaku, maybe you can succeed up! "

Chu Huan laughed, and then said to MacLehose: "Mr. Governor, Xiangjiang is very small, but the world is very big. If I can't handle a company in Xiangjiang, how can I talk about operating and developing in the world shopping malls? And, Hong Kong Land, this time our Jiaku will be settled!"

  MacLehose is angry and has a headache. Unlike many Hong Kong governors of Hong Kong, MacLehose still hopes that when he is the governor of Hong Kong, he can leave a friendly reputation for Hong Kong.

  So MacLehose very much does not want Jiaku to form malicious competition with Jardine Matheson, the two largest consortiums in Xiangjiang, during his management of Xiangjiang.

   But now, it is obvious that Chu Huan does not intend to give up the acquisition of Jardine.

  Finally, MacLehose could only say helplessly: "Mr. Chu, it seems that you have made up your mind. I can only tell you that Xiangjiang is definitely not the only one that has been shocked by this incident."

  Chu Huan smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Governor, for your reminder!"

   Then Chu Huan also left the Governor's Mansion.

  By the time Chu Huan returned to Huarenhang, Xu Yi was already waiting for Chu Huan here.

"Boss, after Henry Keswick left the Governor's Mansion, he went directly to the home of the Secretary of State Robert Roberts. He has not come out until now, and according to our reports, Financial Secretary Xia Tingji and many administrative officials of Xiangjiang have all gone to Roberts. home.

  It seems that they are ready to take action! "

Chu Huan nodded. From what McLehose said just now, Chu Huan could tell that MacLehose hoped that the two parties could settle down and settle down, and that he did not favor Henry Kay too much. Sirk's tendency, but MacLehose's attitude is actually not so important at this time.

Because if Henry Keswick can really make these large and small administrative officials in Xiangjiang stand on his side, even MacLehose will have to take this power into account, not to mention that MacLehose is not supporting himself, so in the end MacLehose It is very likely that Hao will be coerced by these Xiangjiang administrative officials and stand on Henry Keswick's side.

"Although we have made friends with some officials in Xiangjiang over the years, the Keswick family has been operating in Xiangjiang for many years, coupled with Henry Keswick's prestige in Xiangjiang, I am worried that some of our people may rebel !"

  Xu Yi continued to report to Chu Huan.

  Bao Yugang, Huo Tsar, Li Jiacheng and others all have their own connections in the Hong Kong government. It is impossible for Chu Huan to not have one, and even more than them.

   But as Xu Yi said, the Keswick family has been operating in Xiangjiang for many years, and they must have hidden some unknown secrets.

   "So, the most important thing for us now is to quickly settle the relationship with England?"

   Chu Huan asked.

  Although Chu Huan was a little worried about the situation in Xiangjiang, there was nothing he could do about it. This time, the purchase of Jardines was inevitable for Chu Huan.

  Although Henry Keswick has some advantages over Chu Huan in the Hong Kong government, Chu Huan is not without his own advantages in Xiangjiang.

That is, Chu Huan controls Xiangjiang's media and the lives of ordinary people in Xiangjiang. If the other party really dares to use some low-level means to target him, then Chu Huan must let them understand what real capital is. the power of.

   At that time, Chu Huan may face a more difficult situation, but these people may face the fate of leaving Xiangjiang in despair!

Therefore, in Chu Huan's view, the situation on the Yinglun side is more important. After all, the officials on the Xiangjiang side are bluntly relying on the Yinglun side. nailed it.

  Xu Yi nodded and said, "That's right!"

   While Chu Huan and Xu Yi were discussing this matter, at Robert Bishi's home, a small Hong Kong government meeting had started.

In addition to the Secretary of State Robert Roberts, who is the home court, and the Secretary of Finance Xia Tingji, the Secretary of Justice, Mr. Lee, who just took over this year, and many members of the Legislative Council, as well as the directors of various official offices, of course, Henry Keswick is also among them .

"Everyone, the interests of our British people in Xiangjiang are being invaded by the Chinese. Chu Huan has been arrogant in Xiangjiang for a long time, and now he wants to take away our British flag in Xiangjiang, Jardine, Landmark. Everyone, you should understand , if Chu Huan is allowed to acquire these two groups, then from now on, Chu Huan will be above all of you in Xiangjiang.

And the glory of our England will also be eclipsed by this incident in Xiangjiang. I invite everyone here today, in order to hope that everyone can unite and help us Jardine to overcome this difficulty, because only we Only after Jardine has overcome this difficulty can we continue to mark our British pride in Xiangjiang.”

  At this time, Henry Keswick was like an orator, standing among the crowd, telling what would happen to them if Jardine Land was acquired by Chu Huan.

  The people sitting on the sofa were also discussing this matter softly.

  After Henry Keswick finished speaking, Xia Dingji spoke. Among the people present, Xia Dingji had the most complicated views on Chu Huan.

Before that, he had tried to make Chu Huan understand who had the final say in Xiangjiang, but Chu Huan's several decisions made his target a joke in the end, and then, under Luo Bishi's suggestion, The relationship with Chu Huan has eased.

   But this doesn't mean that Xia Dingji has forgotten the humiliation that Chu Huan brought to him before. That's right, Xia Dingji regarded the previous incident as humiliation.

  So at this time, Xia Dingji seemed to see hope.

"Everyone, what Sir Keswick said is not wrong. At this time, Xiangjiang is still in our British hands. You should also know that we are negotiating with the Chinese side in order to continue to manage Xiangjiang. The British behind us We didn't lose, and we can't lose now, we can't let a Chinese become the first person in Xiangjiang's business circle, otherwise the whole world will see our jokes.”

   Seeing Xia Dingji's impassioned here, Luo Bishi was a little helpless. He had already told Xia Dingji about Chu Huan's situation before, but he didn't expect that Xia Dingji's attitude was still so strong now.

   It is true that this is Robert's mansion, and these people were invited by him, but Robert does not want to participate in the acquisition of Jardine and Land by Chinese Real Estate.

Chu Huan is not an ordinary Xiangjiang businessman, he is a person with powerful influence all over the world, especially when Chu Huan's son Chu Shifeng had a hundred-day banquet, he knew that even Joe Cole came to congratulate him, so he understood, It is not easy to target Chu Huan in Xiangjiang.

  That's right, these people sitting here at this time are the top leaders of the various administrative bureaus in Xiangjiang, and they seem to have absolute power.

   But in fact, they are not as influential as Chu Huan at this time.

  Just like Robert and Xia Dingji said before, they are just a group of migrant workers, and they all have their own weaknesses.

   That is the report that is afraid of public opinion.

  Of course, the public opinion reports here refer not only to Xiangjiang's public opinion reports, but to global influential public opinion reports.

  Luo Bishi knew very well that at Chu Shifeng's 100-day banquet, the head of News Corporation, one of the largest media groups in Europe, was also present to congratulate him in person!

Chu Huan's influence and financial resources in Xiangjiang at this time are enough for him to turn the entire Xiangjiang upside down. At that time, Chu Huan may suffer economic losses, and even be suppressed by some political groups, but that is Chu Huan.

   And what about them?

  If Xiangjiang really has a problem, then the outcome of these people is actually doomed.

   was transferred from Xiangjiang, and then returned to England, announcing the complete end of his political career in an irrelevant position!

  So Robert decided that he would only participate in this meeting with his eyes and ears, and would never participate in any specific decisions.

   "ICAC, you can temporarily freeze the bank account of Bank A on the grounds of investigating the financial problems of Bank A. I don't believe that Chu Huan can still buy Jardine and Landmark under such circumstances!"

   After his impassioned, Xia Dingji expressed his thoughts.

  And this idea directly shocked Robert who was about to not express his opinion.

   Actually, it wasn't just Robert, many people at the scene were taken aback by Xia Dingji's idea.

  The current commissioner of ICAC, Lu Dingtang, was not intimidated. He came from a military background and had a strong style of acting. He had long disliked Chu Huan's position in Xiangjiang.

  Hearing Xia Dingji's suggestion at this time, he immediately said: "No problem, I can sign the action order now!"

   "Wait!" Han Yili, the first brother of the police station, hurriedly stopped him at this time.

  Don't look at Lu Dingtang, the two names of Han Yili seem to be very Chinese, but in fact these two are ghosts, but because they work in Xiangjiang, they gave themselves a Chinese name.

  For Han Yili's objection, Henry Keswick, Xia Dingji, and Lu Dingtang, who advocated teaching Chu Huan a lesson, showed dissatisfaction on their faces.

  Especially Lu Dingtang, the relationship between them has always been a little tense after the conflict between the police and corruption.

   "Lu Dingtang, what do you mean, are you worried that the donations Chu Huan gave to your police station every year will no longer be available?"

  Lu Dingtang preached loudly.

  A library donates to the police station every year.

   "Everyone, don't forget the scale of Jiaku in Xiangjiang. At the same time, I also want to remind you not to forget Jiaku's influence in Xiangjiang and what he did before.

The entire Jiaku is now combined with the Yunhai Group. There are almost 200,000 people working for them, and there are 200,000 families behind it. If you block the account of Jiaku, it will bring devastating consequences to Xiangjiang , Have you ever thought about this consequence? "

  Han Yili didn't answer Lu Dingtang's question at all, but expressed his worries.

   Just this worry caused the scene to fall into silence, and Lu Dingtang lost his arrogance just now

   Also, correct the typo first and then change it, Huangshan continues to code~
