After the media learned of the robbery of the Treasury of Johnson Matthey bank at Heathrow International Trade Center in London, they coincidentally gave a qualitative, century big case!
If this characterization is still too abstract, the media later gave a description. If the three tons of gold unknowingly return to the formal circulation channels, any gold jewelry purchased from the British market after this year will contain the composition of this batch of gold.
As for the response of the London gold market, it is more vivid. There has been a short-term rise in gold prices, and even the global gold market has begun to fluctuate.
Compared with the discussion from the outside world, the explanation of Heathrow Airport spokesman is particularly funny. The robbed warehouse is indeed in the control area, but it is not in the absolutely restricted area. Therefore, the robbery will not endanger aviation safety!
Before Sir Gao issued, he got off the plane and was hijacked. I was unlucky or expensive. The spitting stars of the media were flooded.
The London police were still arguing. On the same day, they found an important clue to the robbery of the Treasury of Johnson Matthey bank, that is, a security guard named Anthony black was an insider.
Under the collusion of the inside and outside, the robbers easily broke through the defense of the vault. They had planned to loot 3.2 million pounds of cash there, but they accidentally found the three tons of gold and a batch of jewelry.
But then the London police made no progress. The robbers seemed to evaporate, and no trace was found.
Compared with the media's ridicule of the incompetence of the London police, Gao Xian is secretly funny. If those robbers really carried away the three tons of gold, it's hard to judge whether the gold can be recovered, but there will certainly be clues left by the robbers. But now, it's estimated that the robbers have separated from each other due to mutual suspicion. Maybe someone will be shocked by the "power of God" and change their face Escape and confess your sins.
At a loss, the London police put their hope on the sale of stolen goods by the robbers. As long as any fool dares to shine the gold bar directly, he will catch one; Even if the robbers return the gold to the furnace and refine it again, they should be able to show some feet more or less.
Gao Xian has been too lazy to pay attention to these developments. When the London police came to inquire about the case, he only came a soul torture. Is it my bad luck or your real mess? He took a gloomy leave for convenience. He doesn't want to give more play to the Chinese financial leader who James bond plans to assassinate in the international gossip news.
In fact, the British themselves are having a headache. Why are Sir Gao and Britain, who have great influence, always "rushing" recently?
Gao Xian came to London on a British funded China Pacific Airlines flight. As a result, the plane ran out of fuel and almost destroyed and killed people.
After a few days, Gao Xian changed his direction and came to London from North America. As a result, he got off the plane and encountered robbers.
Now, even some British people are inclined to believe that their government or intelligence agencies are secretly targeting the Chinese financial leader. It can be imagined that the hairy bear seizes the opportunity to spray John Bull.
Therefore, when meeting with Sir Gao, British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher deliberately and sincerely said that Sir Gao, my cabinet, absolutely did not take any action against you personally.
Gao Xian nodded in agreement. I have always been willing to see the world with the greatest kindness. I just hope everything will go well this time when I come to Britain on business.
Mrs. Thatcher also understood that her statement was too weak. If there was no practical action, everything would be nonsense. All right, say hello and cooperate with Sir Gao's visit.
So when Robin Pemberton, governor of the Bank of England, met Gao Xian, he looked like he had something to discuss. As long as he didn't ask for a guarantee for the Hong Kong dollar, there was no problem with any Hong Kong dollar Sterling currency swap agreement.
Gao Xian finally seized the opportunity. Of course, he would not be satisfied with it. After finishing the business of Xiangjiang exchange fund authority, he asked Robin Pemberton what stage the Bank of England had reached in dealing with Johnson Matthey?
As one of the five major gold traders in London, Johnson Matthey bank stumbled in the global gold price slump in the early 1980s. But the most fatal thing is that its excessive lending, especially large loans, was extended to a small number of companies and individuals with special relationships, resulting in poor loan quality and almost insolvency.
The Bank of England was worried about the spread of Johnson Matthey's problems, affecting the entire British banking industry, so it forced Johnson Matthey to trust it, waited for it to re-enter the formal market, and then found a good buyer for it. As a result, there was another robbery in the vault of Johnson Matthey bank at Heathrow International Trade Center in London. Johnson Matthey bank lost three tons of gold bars alone, And I don't see any hope that the police can recover.
Gao Xian never forgets about Johnson Matthey bank, because the gold trading license of Johnson Matthey bank can be called a carrot and a pit, which is too precious. Naturally, he wants to fight for it as soon as he finds an opportunity.
When it comes to Johnson Matthey, Robin Pemberton can't hide it. It's as big as a fight. Who can think that this mess can be worse?
After pondering for a while, Robin Pemberton simply asked, "is Sir Gao interested in Johnson Matthey and wants to buy it?"
Gao Xian didn't hide it and nodded. "To be exact, Gao Yi is interested in the gold trading license and gold trading business of Johnson Matthey as one of the five gold dealers in London. I want to mediate and facilitate the acquisition."
Speaking of this, Gao Xian smiled. "As for the loan business of Johnson Matthey bank, I believe no one doesn't know. It's a worthless mess."
Robin Pemberton said leisurely: "everyone knows the position and value of Johnson Matthey in the field of gold trading. If you just pick good meat, sir Gao really doesn't have any obvious advantages. There are many strong eager candidates in Australia and New Zealand."
Hearing the high chord of the subtext, he bargained: "according to public information, Johnson Matthey bank's non-conforming loans to gomba holdings, the owner of puddle wharf and London Mermaid Theatre, are as high as 21 million pounds."
"If the Bank of England wants the future acquirers of Johnson Matthey to fill the hole, more accurately, those in the commonwealth who are very interested in entering the British local market, I believe that no matter how eager they are, they will not be wronged."
"I can represent Gao Yi and help the Bank of England deal with 30% of the bad debts of Johnson Matthey at most."
Robin Pemberton shook his head, at least half of it.
Upon hearing this, Gao Xian was really unhappy. You obviously took me as the rich man in the countryside. If you can kill me, it's a knife! Don't forget, how much did Johnson Matthey lose from the robbery of the Treasury of Johnson Matthey bank at Heathrow International Trade Center in London? It's not too much to describe Johnson Matthey as an empty shell now!
Robin Pemberton quickly explained that I forgot to tell you that the goods lost by Johnson Matthey were insured at Lloyd's insurance company according to the usual practice. Although it is not sure when the claim can be settled in place, it must be settled.
"Really?" Gao Xian raised his eyebrows and quickly recalculated his gains and losses.
"In this way, Johnson Matthey bank can be acquired by Gaoyi, but Gaoyi must be responsible for handling 40% of the bad debts. There can be no less." Robin Pemberton made a concession. "In this way, the Bank of England can give enough explanation to the outside world so that Gaoyi can take advantage of the strong bidder. At the same time, I will also write down this favor."
Gao Xian said with a painful look on his face, well, plus one achievement plus one percentage, the right should help Baron Pemberton and the Bank of England share their worries.
Robin Pemberton smiled. That's right. It's entirely reasonable for you to pick up the bargain of Johnson Matthey, but you should also consider the difficulties of the Bank of England and me.
Seeing that Gao Xian finally showed a little satisfaction, Robin Pemberton said in earnest, what, sir Gao, in public, don't complain like "I'm unlucky or expensive land is really messy". You know, the international influence is not good.
Sir Gao nodded again and again, understand, understand, I don't lack the overall view!
