Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 647 High Standard

"Missing? What do you mean missing?!"

The entire third floor of Swire Bank echoed with Noah's roar.

The air here seems to be stagnant, so dull that it's hard to breathe.

The top executives of the Schweizer family gathered in the executive conference room all looked gloomy, and the brightly lit ceiling above them seemed to be filled with gloomy clouds.

It will be dawn in a few hours.

And that damn mainland kid from "Quinlan" was determined to fight them to the death, and even found helpers. At this juncture, the man from Buckingham Palace suddenly refused to meet again...

This is really not a good sign.

After finishing the phone call, Noah came to the conference room with heavy steps. Everyone sitting next to the oval conference room looked at him, and they could see a sense of dejection and... determination in his body.

Snapped!

Noah walked to the only empty seat and did not sit down. He made fists with his hands and slammed them on the mahogany table.

"Everyone, no one can count on it now. The family's property in the port city, the foundation of the family's fortune, and the family's legacy that has been passed down for hundreds of years, are at a critical moment."

Noah's light blue eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes as he scanned everyone present one by one. And these people all had solemn expressions on their faces.

"Are you ready with the money?" Noah asked in a deep voice.

"Enough, just a little more!"

"Very good." Noah nodded slightly, "Then there's only one last thing left. I don't care what kind of thigh that kid hugs. This is the port city, and this is the territory of our Eagle country! I want you to do it without exposing your family. Stop him and his helpers from appearing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange tomorrow at all costs, before we take control!"

Everyone below looked at each other, that was a wholly-owned state-owned enterprise in mainland China.

This is not Eagle Country, but a port city connected to the mountains and rivers of the mainland...

are you crazy?

Noah really didn't have much sense at this time. He only knew that he must not let the foreign company change owners, both public and private. Otherwise, after returning to London, his fate may not be much better than that of the Hebrew father and son.

A foreign company has developed for more than a hundred years, but it changed hands in his hands. How can he bear the crime?

Who can afford it? !

Hong Kong Island, Victoria Harbor, China Merchants Building.

It was late at night, inside 608.

The midnight replay of "The Condor" was playing on the 21-inch Hitachi color TV. The Fugui brothers sat on the sofa and watched it intently. Li Jiankun was not sleepy either, standing by the window, looking at the beautiful night view of Victoria Harbor, with a hand on his right hand. Wisps of white smoke curled up, before being blown away by the salty sea breeze before it reached mid-air.

There was a smile on his lips.

He didn't think about the current matter anymore. Although this was the most important decision he had ever made in his life, now that he had made it, he had no regrets.

His thoughts drifted back to the capital, thinking of that porcelain doll-like pink face, and wondering what she was doing recently. Are you preparing for your graduation thesis, or are you worried about work? Is there any newspaper or magazine willing to accept her internally?

If not, then they really have no vision.

Summer is coming, and Miss Shen is about to graduate. She really wants to marry her home right away. She is both coveted for her person and her heart... The problem is, the aftermath of the big fight between Li Guifei and Shen's father is still lingering, and he doesn't know how to get married. If we can’t break up, what should we do?

The smile at the corner of Li Jiankun's mouth gradually dimmed, so sad!

"Boom boom boom!"

A knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. The Fugui brothers jumped up from the sofa and rushed to the door at the same time. One to the left and one to the right, they turned to look at him. After seeing him nod, Zhang Fu reached out to unlock the door.

The door opens.

Yuan Geng walked in first, and surprisingly, there were six young men behind him, wearing uniform black tunic suits, and even their expressions were similar, cold and serious.

Brother Fugui glanced at these six people, and his muscles subconsciously tensed up, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Seeing Li Jiankun's suspicious eyes, Yuan Geng said with a smile: "These are the ones responsible for protecting you."

Secret service?

Li Jiankun suddenly understood, but became more and more confused, thinking that it was not necessary. What danger could he face by staying here? When the dust settles tomorrow, what's the point of the enemy trying to use tricks?

A decent person will not get himself into trouble just because of a bad breath.

Yuan Geng suddenly hesitated to speak, his lips closed, and he couldn't say the words for a long time, or it was difficult to say them.

"Mr. Yuan, please speak directly if you have anything to say."

"Well... you may still be asked to go tomorrow. We, our China Merchants Bureau can't afford so much money." After Yuan Geng said this, his face turned red.

They were given at least one billion Hong Kong dollars and half of the Kunzhu Group for free, not to mention the even bigger piece of cake from Taikoo & Co., Ltd. The situation forced them to have the last child, but in the end they had no child... …

Shameful!

"Yeah." Li Jiankun slapped his forehead and said quickly, "I was negligent."

This reaction made Yuan Geng feel warm in his heart. negligence? Most likely it doesn't exist, it's just to give him face and the investment promotion agency.

But it seems that China Merchants Group, which also owns a building standing on the shore of Victoria Harbor, really can't afford hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars——

They have made an estimate that 0.7% of Swire & Co.'s shares are equivalent to approximately 140 million shares, and the current stock price being speculated by "Quinlan" and the Schweizer family... is simply suffocating!

You know, Swire & Co.'s stock is one of the few stocks that is still strong amidst the current downward trend of the Hong Kong economy. Originally it was more than 30 Hong Kong dollars per share.

And now it’s HK$300 per share!

The price has increased nearly ten times!

140 million shares, 4.2 yuan per share, requires million Hong Kong dollars!

This is an estimate assuming the stock price remains unchanged. In tomorrow's final battle, the bidding between the two parties will definitely become more intense, so how can it remain unchanged?

It’s hard to say how much money is needed, but it’s definitely not an amount that their investment agency can afford.

Li Jiankun secretly wiped his sweat and said to himself that it was lucky that his friend had a lump in his UBS account, otherwise he would have been blamed... Their previous acquisition of Swire & Co.'s shares included sweeteners given to Chinese-owned newspapers and magazines, and a series of expenses were calculated. The total is about 6 billion Hong Kong dollars. The expenses of the four people are not the same, but they are generally similar.

So he does still have a lump. But it can be said that there is no——

After the other three people quit, all the money they spent turned into his debt.

He is now the most serious debtor in the world. There is no one in the whole country and even in Hong Kong who owes more money than him.

Of course, as long as you win Taikoo and have the assets in hand, it will only be small money.

Yuan Geng walked to the window, unbuttoned the two buttons on the collar of a slightly faded blue tunic suit, reached his right hand into the lining, groped for a long time, and took out a check that had been folded in half. After unfolding it, he handed it to Li Jiankun.

"I really can't take it. But...you still accept it."

Li Jiankun looked at it and saw a cash check from Bank of China, amounting to HK$68.5 million.

Five hundred thousand...

Li Jiankun's nose felt sore for no reason. Such an amount, with some parts and components, was definitely scraped together.

China Merchants Group is just a company, and behind it is...the motherland.

Li Jiankun took the check, folded it in half again, and stuffed it back into the lining pocket of Yuan Geng's tunic suit. He grinned and said, "No need."

"But……"

"Hey, we are all a family from now on, uh, no! We are a family to begin with, there is no need to make such a clear distinction."

Yuan Geng suddenly became jealous and moved. Although he also understands that money of a certain amount is just a string of numbers that will not be taken with him in life or death, but how many people, no matter how rich they are, can really regard nearly 70 million Hong Kong dollars as if they were nothing?

Not to mention, he now knows that the child's foreign debt is in the billions.

You have to bear the pressure yourself, the benefits will be shared by the China Merchants Association, and the country will be... Whoever dares to "touch" this child, Yuan Geng will be the first to refuse!

Everyone in the room saw this scene, and even the cold-toned faces of the six men in "black Chinese tunic suits" showed some warmth.

As the night progressed, Li Jiankun was "pressed" by Yuan Geng to the special hotel bed in the back room, forcing him to recharge his batteries.

Tomorrow's events are very important. Everything depends on this child. Don't get sleepy temporarily... Yuan Geng also came from a young age. When he was young, he was really sleepy and could fall asleep standing up.

At the moment, Yuan Geng told him to rest assured, patted his chest and said, "We have everything."

We...these two words were like a sleeping pill, allowing Li Jiankun to sleep peacefully.

When I woke up, it was bright and the toiletries, including face wash, had been delivered to the room.

After Li Jiankun had tidied up, there was another beautiful young lady dressed in Hong Kong style whom he had met for the first time. Full of enthusiasm, she carried a long wooden tray and delivered breakfast for three people. However, they may have underestimated the appetite of the rich brothers. I haven’t eaten enough since yesterday…

Li Jiankun could imagine that last night was not as peaceful as the night view of Victoria Harbor he looked at. Mr. Yuan and the China Merchants Bureau must have been tired of running around in private and had made a lot of arrangements.

However, when he came to the downstairs door of the building, guarded by the wealthy brothers and six "black Chinese tunic suits", he was still frightened by the sight in front of him.

I saw three cars parked in a row under the front steps, two black fifth-generation Crowns in front and behind, and a Hongqi in the middle... and sacred red flags hung on both sides of the front of the car.

There is no doubt that the license plates of the three vehicles are also unique.

This treatment... Li Jiankun swallowed hard.

If someone really dares to attack this fleet, it will be tantamount to provoking an international dispute!

Yuan Geng stood next to the Hongqi car and opened the back seat door on the side of the building. It looked like a parent sending his child to take the college entrance examination, smiling and waving.

Li Jiankun took a deep breath and mustered up his courage before he helped him sit in. Fortunately, he also sat in.

Clap clap clap clap!

The sound of car doors closing kept coming. Those "black Chinese tunic suits" and wealthy brothers all sat in front of and behind the crown. The motorcade started and drove towards the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

I really encountered something on the road.

A white Honda was following them, and a large truck broke down in the middle of the road, causing a traffic jam.

The former ignored it, and the situation behind was solved by the "black Chinese tunic suit". The four people got out of the car and opened the way, ordering all vehicles to pull over, and the convoy passed along the hard shoulder.

Of course, luckily they set off an hour and a half early.

"Xiao Xiao!" Mr. Yuan, who was sitting next to Li Jiankun, snorted coldly.

Li Jiankun looked through the front windshield at the red flag fluttering in the wind at the front of the car. He had never felt so safe in that moment.

Some people probably never expected that China Merchants Bureau would use this specification——

Even if the people who give orders want to go crazy, the people who do things will be cowardly.

Isn’t it good to be alive?

The convoy arrived safely at the Hong Kong Stock Exchange without being hit by a single stone.
