Break out of the courtyard

Monday, September 9th, sunny.

Hong Kong Island, Kai Tak Airport.

After a ribbon-cutting ceremony, hundreds of passengers outside the terminal were allowed into the airport one after another.

Sha Zhixiang, director of the Science Printing Factory, was standing at the entrance of the terminal, watching the passengers put their bags and suitcases on the conveyor belt on the right, while people walked through a door frame that made a beeping sound.

Then, some people took out keys, daggers, pistols...

"NO! If you cannot show a gun license, any gun will be confiscated! This is for the safety of all passengers, please cooperate with us."

A female security guard in charge of the inspection was still talking loudly, but she had already skillfully disassembled a pistol into parts and threw them into a black metal bucket beside her.

At the same time, the male and female security guards in black uniforms all looked at the American man whose gun had been taken away.

"Sir, we are Umbrella Security, and the person next to you is a Hong Kong police officer. For the safety of all passengers, please cooperate with our work." A tall young male security guard holding an explosion-proof shield walked over with a fat male Hong Kong police officer and asked the American who was very dissatisfied and blocked the passenger entrance to move aside.

"Sir, although you have a gun license, we have to separate the gun and the bullets and confiscate all the bullets. This is for the safety of all passengers. Please cooperate with our work." Before the female security guard finished her words, she unloaded the magazine, ejected the gun, and ejected the bullets.

"All knives will be confiscated, and nail clippers are not allowed on the plane!"

"Lighters, flammable and explosive items, and unknown liquids are not allowed on board the plane!"

"We are Umbrella Security. For the safety of all passengers, please cooperate with our work. If your rights are violated, you can ask a lawyer to negotiate with our company or sue us!"

……

"Are you sure Zhang Heping will come here today?" Sha Zhixiang frowned and glanced at the old man next to him. If it weren't for this old guy forcing Zhang Heping to choose only one nationality, he wouldn't have had such a bad relationship with Zhang Heping.

Sha Zhixiang later thought about it for a long time, how did Zhang Heping’s Hong Kong identity become a foreign identity?

Isn’t Hong Kong Island our territory?

Now, hundreds of technical consultation letters are piled up in the printing factory's office, requiring Sha Zhixiang to deliver the letters to Zhang Heping and ask Zhang Heping to handle them.

As a result, nothing was done and Zhang Heping even stopped answering his calls.

It's impossible to send it as it's not his fault.

What's more, he didn't have a passport to go to Hong Kong Island.

Now, the pressure is on the instigator, Xie Huaidong, the new leader of their secret department. He was sent to Hong Kong Island to apologize to Zhang Heping in person!

Director Sha, who was forced to come along, was tasked with supervising apologies, smoothing things over, and easing relations.

Old Man Xie didn't say anything. He had been using his connections to find out Zhang Heping's whereabouts these days, because he couldn't go up to the top of Mount Taiping Mountain because he would be stopped by the bodyguards of the Umbrella Company halfway up the mountain.

There was a major personnel reshuffle some time ago, with many people retiring and many people stepping up.

By chance, Old Man Xie was assigned to this confidential unit which was comparable to a full division level unit.

At first, he thought he was promoted.

When he arrived in Guangdong Province, he discovered that this confidential unit only revolved around one person, and its highest mission was to persuade that person to return to China to do scientific research.

Old Man Jie was a little confused and felt like he was here to be a nanny!

What he couldn't stand the most was that he, as the person in charge, didn't even have the authority to check Zhang Heping's past files!

So, on September 9, he made a stupid move and used Article 11 of the newly passed Nationality Law to force Zhang Heping to give up his Hong Kong identity and return to China.

As long as Zhang Heping returns to China, most of the tasks of his confidential unit will be completed. He won't have to be a nanny anymore and he will have a chance to be promoted!

What he never expected was that Zhang Heping chose the Hong Kong identity without hesitation and had no attachment to his domestic identity at all.

This made Old Man Xie wonder whether Zhang Heping and his family had lived in a cowshed in previous years!

……

"Boss, our Umbrella Company's security equipment was officially put into use at Kai Tak Airport today. Do you want to go and have a look?" Seeing that Zhang Heping was going back to the villa so early, the driver couldn't help but mention what General Manager Wei Chunqiao had told him to do.

"A few metal detectors and X-ray machines, what's so interesting about them!" Zhang Heping lay in the back seat with his eyes closed, not caring about the Umbrella Company's small business at all.

"Lao Qin, we are going to Shenzhen soon and don't have time to go to the airport." Chen Shuting explained to the driver, then opened her big notebook and talked to Zhang Heping like a secretary about the inventory of Guangming Lighting Processing Factory and the arrangements for participating in the Canton Fair next month.

"What do you think of the Jianing Group?" Zhang Heping said, taking out a newspaper and handing it to his concubine Chen Shuting.

Chen Shuting looked at the newspaper's recommendation to buy Jianing shares, as well as the upward K-line chart of Jianing shares. She considered for a moment before saying:

“The first time I saw information about this company was when they bought a small listed company called Meihan.”

"The second time was when they bought the Golden Gate Building for HK$10 billion."

"Afterwards, I heard from the wealthy wives at Heping Real Estate that Zhang Jianing was only the boss of Jianing Group in name only, and there was also a very powerful man behind her."

"Jianing Group went public by using the shell of Mei-Han, and raised the share price from 1 yuan to the current 5 yuan; the boss behind her made a lot of money by manipulating this stock!" Zhang Heping put his left hand on the black silk long legs of his concubine Chen Shuting and asked lightly:

"When they push the price of Carrian's stock to the top, what do you think they will do?"

Chen Shuting thought for a moment and said, "Recently, a lot of funds have emerged to speculate in real estate and hotels. Cheung Kong helped Wheelock Group sell two buildings in Central at a high price, and the commission alone was HK$10 billion."

"If I were the boss behind Jianing, I would sell the Golden Gate Building at a high price and continue to drive up the stock price."

Zhang Heping patted Chen Shuting's thigh and continued to ask, "Who will take over after the stock price is pushed up?"

"Retail investors!" Chen Shuting gave the answer without even thinking.

"Retail investors are the last ones to take over, and there is still a process of taking over in the middle!" Zhang Heping retracted his left hand, picked up a newspaper and started reading, "Pay more attention to this company in the future. When they go bankrupt, we might be able to pick up a big bargain!"

After the car drove back to the top of Taiping Mountain, Zhang Heping and his concubine went home to change into casual clothes and rode a motorcycle to Shenzhen.

You Daren and the backbone members of his construction company have been laying the foundation for a month in Shenzhen to guide the inland engineers.

The two plots of land originally allocated to them by Director Wu of Shenzhen City were too remote, and there was a small hill blocking the way. Zhang Heping did not agree at the time, and after communicating with Director Wu and others for half a day, he finally negotiated a piece of land east of the municipal government to build the office building of the Heping Group.

As for the land for the apartment building, it has not been repaired for the time being because the deal has not been concluded.

Zhang Heping just took a walk around the construction site and then rode his bike to the Guangming Lighting Processing Factory.

After randomly inspecting hundreds of LED lamps in the warehouse, he asked the lighting factory director Wan Gang to arrange for people to send these lamps that passed the inspection to Hong Kong Island, preparing to increase advertising investment to create momentum!

Afterwards, he went to take a look at the CD production next door, and then took a look at the Shenzhen Ultra-Thin Color Screen Joint Venture Production Factory across the street.

The dust removal system in the factory has been installed and has been running for half a month, but the other machines have not arrived yet and it is unknown when they will be put into production.

In the evening, when Zhang Heping returned to Taiping Mountain on a motorcycle with his concubine Chen Shuting, he unexpectedly discovered that his brother-in-law Tang Ren, who had disappeared for more than half a month, was having a party outside the villa, and Director Sha of the Science Printing Factory was also there...
