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."
Gao Xian nodded and said he understood, "in the final analysis, people like a comfortable environment. The current balance pattern of Xiangjiang has been formed after more than 100 years of colonial rule. No one will be willing to take the risk of offending a large existing interest group to change anything. The Hong Kong government cannot leave Huifeng bank, and it is difficult for Xiangjiang business circles to avoid the influence of Huifeng bank."
"It's great that you can see through the essence." Yi Mingzhe said happily: "anyway, you have got the core assets of Huangpu dock as you wish. With the puzzle of the port in the commercial layout, you have obtained great benefits. Then stop the differences with Huifeng bank."
Gao Xian shrugged. "I only admit that I have differences with Shen Bi, not with Huifeng bank."
Yi Mingzhe was amused. "You have to forgive people and forgive people. I doubt whether Shen Bi can take over the next chairman of Huifeng bank. There may be uncertainties."
Gao Xian said thoughtfully: "to tell you the truth, I hope that Shen Bi, an acquaintance, can take over the next chairman of Huifeng bank step by step. Otherwise, he will parachute over a stranger and try to deal with it."
Yi Mingzhe couldn't help laughing and said, "just arrange Shen Bi. He must be angry now."
……
Shen Bi, vice chairman of Huifeng bank, is really in a bad mood now. He made a disheartened face in the dispute with Hutchison and provoked a lot of coquettish.
A large group of foreign banks ran to Hong Kong Governor Mai Lihao and complained that Huifeng bank had damaged the good ending of British capital in the Far East. Of course, Huifeng bank should give an explanation accordingly.
Huifeng bank's current senior class Shaya, who had been recuperating in London, returned to Xiangjiang dusty. After talking with Hong Kong Governor Mai Lihao, he hosted a banquet for a group of senior classes of foreign banks. Finally, he scolded Shen Bi for his thoughtlessness and asked him to find a way to make an action plan to release goodwill.
Shen Bi, you're on vacation in London. I'm working hard in Xiangjiang. I'll enjoy my success if I make a mistake. I'll carry the pot alone!
What is the act of releasing goodwill? Apologize? no way!
Shen Bi, who refused to bow his head with his neck, was not incompetent. He gnashed his teeth and thought for several days. He choked out a plan to count birds with one stone, so he said to Shaya: "those big class complaints are nothing more than jealous of the dominance of Huifeng bank. Then we will give them the balance pattern they want."
"The favorable bank acquired by Huifeng bank a few years ago was poorly managed. Although it had the right to issue money, it stopped issuing money last year, just like a tasteless chicken rib to eat and a pity to abandon."
"Why don't we give them the favorable banks, but the premise is that we must continue to issue notes to reduce the amount of notes issued by Huifeng bank, free up the pledged cash and expand international business."
"In addition, I suggest making an exception to let Gao Xian participate. He has strong financial resources and has lent Qi dezun and Heji two sums of money, each of which is hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars."
