Chapter 358 (1/2)
The ghost man Shen Bi wants to put into Heji is Wei Li. When Gao Xian accompanied Qi dezun to investigate this person, he found that he really has ability. Maybe because of this, he is arrogant and arrogant, and occasionally he can't help showing his edge.
In private, Gao Xian joked to Qi dezun: ”I thought Shen Bi had worked hard to find a handsome talent for Heji. Now it seems that he is a general. He is just suitable for doing dirty work such as shutting down subsidiaries and layoffs for you.”
Qi dezun certainly understood what Gao Xian meant. Over the years, he has been keen to invest in local public service projects such as the Xiangjiang subsea tunnel and has accumulated a high social reputation. As a celebrity, of course, he should cherish feathers, ruthless business operations and white gloves.
”Just...” Qi dezun hesitated. ”What if Wei Li accumulated credit and didn't lose his tail?”
”Wei Li gives me a feeling, much like some ambitious business talents I met in the United States. It is estimated that Shen Bi will not be able to hold Wei Li first.” Gao Xian smiled, ”What's more, in the following Hutchison equity structure, even if Huifeng bank is a major shareholder, you and I are also major shareholders. Under the pattern of two to one, there will be no usurpation of power.”
Qi dezun thought about it and felt that Gao Xian's words were reasonable. In fact, the two of them had formed an alliance. Although the core assets of Huangpu dock were paid off by Gao Yi, Qi dezun and Hutchison, who had borrowed money twice, still owed Gao Xian and Gao Yi tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars. Gao Xian can be said to have put a heavy bet on Qi dezun.
”In that case, let's have another meeting.” Qi dezun said confidently, ”after so many compromises, Shen Bi has no excuse to make waves. Huifeng bank should share its responsibilities.”
……
This is indeed the case. Although Shen Bi has always maintained a strong posture on the surface, he also began to bear more and more pressure. The first person to bear the brunt is the fear of British funded forces in Xiangjiang business circles.
Heji ranks second among the four British funded foreign firms in Xiangjiang. Shen Bi dares to control recklessly. How can other foreign firms not care.
Qi dezun didn't brag about Gao Xian. He did contact some big classes of foreign banks and went to Hong Kong Governor Mai Lihao to complain that Huifeng bank stabbed his own people in the back.
Moreover, to Gao Xian's surprise, Jardine, the first British funded foreign firm in Xiangjiang, which is usually dirty due to competition with Hutchison and huidefeng for commercial interests, even plays the side drum.
”Unexpectedly, the contradictions within the British Far East interest group are so dazzling.” he ran to consult his father-in-law Yi Mingzhe's high string and couldn't help sighing.
Yi Mingzhe smiled. ”Jardine has been despised by other foreign banks for a long time because it has enjoyed the special treatment of the Hong Kong government for a long time. Now it will not miss the opportunity to pull Huifeng bank into the water. Not to mention, there is a contradiction between Jardine and Huifeng bank that is not enough for the outside world.”
Speaking of this, Yi Mingzhe positively reminded: ”I know you're trying to see what kind of ripples Xiangjiang's business pond will stir up after being put into a stone, and whether it can provide more room for upward development. But don't underestimate the British. As far as Xiangjiang is concerned, it has been entrenched for more than 100 years. What haven't you seen? What haven't you thought about? What haven't you done?”
”It's enough to quarrel with Hutchison to this extent. The regeneration incident is beyond the usual scale of the internal struggle of the British, and it's very easy to expose you.”
”You saw a large group of foreign banks running to Mai Lihao to complain, but it was just a gesture of beating Huifeng bank and warning it not to commit public anger, which could not cause real harm to Huifeng bank.”
