Chapter 49 Transactions

From seeing the newspaper during breakfast, it was only more than two hours until the interview ended. When the reporter left, it was not yet 1 o'clock, Chen Chong stayed in the study for a while, made a few calls, and answered a few more calls. When he walked out, he found that Li Tang and Aunt Liu had already come over. Their faces were as normal as usual.

"A Chong, it's almost lunch, will you go out now?"

"Yes." Chen Chong took the car key, gave Li Kaiyuan a wink and said, "The senior team of HSBC wants to see me and discuss business matters, so he has to go out."

"Will you come back later? If we don't come back, we will have dinner." Li Kaiyuan said with a stern face and without looking back: "Mom, don't worry about him, he is so capable and can't starve to death."

Aunt Liu didn't say anything, but Li Tang coughed and said, "Achong, go and go early, let's see how to make up the rockery in the yard in the afternoon."

"Okay." Chen Chong responded, then greeted: "My mom and dad, I'll leave first."

Before he could walk out the door, he heard the sound of the mother and daughter fighting behind him: "Yuan Yuan, you are cold and you are pushing A Chong to the outside world. This won't work."

"Mom, am I yours or is he yours? Why do you keep turning your elbows out?"

"Hey, you damn girl, am I not thinking about you?"

Such a good mother-in-law is definitely a rare rare P in the world. Why didn’t I meet in my previous life?

Shen Chong drove out of the villa and had just walked a few hundred meters. He saw a red beetle coming towards him. So he parked his car at the intersection and rolled down the window - this generation of luxury residential areas, only private cars can come in, there are no traffic lights, and there are no zebra crossings. It was noon again, and the road was empty and there were no cars, so he didn't worry about congestion and traffic.

"Ningning, won't class be held today?"

"There is no class in the afternoon, so I'll come to play with Sister Yuanyuan." Ningning gave him an self-evident smile and asked, "Brother Shen is going out?"

"Go out to do something." Chen Chong was depressed and was about to find someone to talk to, but he was not in a hurry to leave. He said, "Don't call Brother Shen, Brother Shen in the future. It sounds good in Beijing dialect, but it sounds a bit awkward, like a gangster boss."

"If you don't call me Brother Shen, what's the name?"

Chen Chong looked at her and joked with a smile: "I think you are so good to Tianbao, why don't you call my brother-in-law?"

"Take advantage of me." Ning Ning sneered, rolled her eyes, and said, "I am not as fickle as my brother-in-law as you."

"If you don't follow the local customs, you can call me my English name."

"Allen, Allen." Ningning said after a few words, "It feels strange, so it's better to call Brother Shen."

"It's casual, it's casual." Chen Chong waved his hand and said, "You can call it whatever you like."

"Brother Shen, look at you with a look of dismay." Ning Ning stumbled outside and asked with a narrow smile: "Did the incident in the east window be revealed and was roared by Sister Yuanyuan? He ran away from the outside at noon. Have you been driven out of the house?"

Chen Chong laughed and said, "No, I really have something to go out. By the way, Yuanyuan asked you to move in, how are you thinking about it?"

"I haven't thought about it yet." Ning Ning glanced at him with a pair of wonderful eyes and asked, "Brother Shen, do you like to welcome me to live?"

"Welcome, of course, welcome. If you come to live, the humble house will shine brightly and you will definitely be waiting for it."

"No wonder Tianbao is so young. Everyone knows that you are a big pervert." Ning Ning said with a slightly red face, "I'll talk nonsense."

The girl is shy and beautiful, and it is pleasing to the eye. Chen Chong's emotions are relieved. He patted his forehead and said with a smile: "I am a little ignorant and shallow. I have used the wrong idiom. Don't blame me. Let's leave first and say goodbye.

After saying that, he started the car and ran away.

Ning Ning bit her lip and looked at the rearview mirror. After his car disappeared, she rolled up the window and slowly started the car.

If the impression that Newbijian gives is a typical Scottish tough soldier, Chen Bi gives is a typical English bulldog with a wide forehead, fat chin, sharp eyes, and always has a full-momental expression. Few people can maintain their psychological advantages in front of him.

In a Western restaurant near HSBC Headquarters, he pinched the newspaper Shen Chong's red pen into a ball, held it in his palm, and then looked up and asked, "If the AI ​​is translated correctly, the newspaper reports on your personal emotional life. Show me what it does?"

"This says I have two girlfriends." Chen Chong supported the dining table with his arms, leaned forward, and said aggressively: "This is true. I do have two girlfriends, one is KatarIu, you know, and the other is the granddaughter of a senior Taiwanese official. This is not important. What's important is that the newspaper reported that KatarIu and I share the same private bank account at HSBC. This has a lot to do with my Taiwanese girlfriend. Her family is very powerful, so I will face huge losses in Taiwan. Nh1's so private information has been leaked. Do you tell me, is HSBC worthy of my trust?"

Chen Bi is an old fox, very cunning, without a trace of panic, and said calmly: "I am very sorry that such a thing happened to AI, but are you sure it was leaked by our HSBC? You know, bank accounts are things that are often used, and friends may accidentally leak this information when chatting with each other, or when using it."

"Opening this account is a secret between KatarIu and me. It is a very secretive behavior, and even her parents don't know it." Chen Chong continued to maintain an oppressive attitude and said, "I have learned from a media friend that this news comes from a successful Hong Kong businessman. KatarIu has never seen him, and I have only met that person once, so it is absolutely impossible for us to tell it."

"If that's the case." Chen Bi said, his fingers were slightly white, "Don't worry, I will set up a special investigation team to comprehensively check every HSBC employee who knows your private bank account information."

"Things have happened, what's the point of investigating them?"

"AI, please believe me. After the investigation results come out, if it is really HSBC's problem, I will definitely compensate you for your losses." After Chen Bi finished speaking, he repeated: "Please believe me."

"Nh1 You are the best banker in Hong Kong, of course I trust you." Seeing that he surrendered, Chen Chong retreated a little later and said, "But even if the investigation revealed who leaked the secret, it means nothing to me. The loss has been lost, so I don't care who leaked the secret. I just want to make up for the loss. Nh1 This time I lost a lot of money. I have no women and can still find them again, but if the business is lost, it will not be so easy to find them, so I need HSBC to help me start again."

"Of course, that of course." Chen Bi breathed a sigh of relief. He threw away the paper ball, then picked up the wine glass and said: "If AI needs help, please say that HSBC will definitely provide the best service."

Chen Chong raised his glass, took a sip of red wine with him, and then said straight to the point: "I want the Jardinian stock in HSBC."

Chen Bi was very surprised. He put down his wine glass, pondered for a while before saying, "Do you want to join the Jardine Mahjong?"

"Li Ka-shing can take over Hutchison Whampoa, why can't I take over Jardine Whampoa?"

"No, no, no, you misunderstood. Money is borderless. I am a banker. I don't care about British capital or Chinese capital. I just care who can create profits for me." Chen Bi lowered his posture and explained in detail: "Li Ka-shing has very strong management capabilities and real estate development experience. He can revitalize the stranded giant ship of Hutchison Whampoa, but AI's strength lies in investment and high-tech industries. Jardinet Foreign Company is not suitable for you. It operates all traditional industries, real estate, shipping, hotels, trade, plantations, certificates, insurance, etc. None of them are good at. And you have to know that the Keserk family has operated Jardinet Foreign Company for many years and is very strong. With your current assets, it is difficult to challenge their major shareholder status."

"The Kessek family sold stocks continuously in the 1970s and then invested heavily around the world. Now they hold only about 10% of the shares of Jardine Wong Foreign Company." Chen Chong said with a determined expression and said, "The current share price of Jardine Wong Foreign Company is only HK$17.8. At this price, the cash in my hand can absorb at least 15 yuan of stocks."

"Thinking too simple. Jardinet Foreign Company is the foundation of the Keserk family. If you absorb a lot in the market, they will definitely face the challenge. At that time, the stocks will surge and you will buy very little." Chen Bi shook his head and persuaded: "AI, you are very rich, but you have been rich for too short and you have not accumulated enough. The Keserk family has a large number of industries in London, the United States, South Africa and the Middle East. The assets are conservatively estimated to exceed 1 billion pounds. They can easily defeat you. Besides, Jardinet Foreign Company's profitability in recent years is very average and is a quagmire. If you spend a lot of money but cannot become the controlling shareholder, you will suffer heavy losses and are not worth taking risks."

"Nh1 I admit that what you said makes sense, but..." Chen Chong raised his finger and pointed to the ceiling, saying, "But until now, many people just regard me as a businessman favored by the goddess of luck, and I want to break through the invisible ceiling and become a real celebrity, just like you, so I need an opportunity, an opportunity for the Toulon battle, and Jardinet is Toulon in Hong Kong."
