Chapter 584: Celebrating the New Year's Day of 1985

Clivia from Jichun, cars from Hainan, and electronic products from Shenzhen are the three businesses that small Hong Kong businessmen like to engage in the most this year, and of course they are also the most profitable businesses in the mainland.

Compared with the Taihui in Jiangsu and Zhejiang and the fake drugs in Fuzhou and Xiamen, which are highly regional and exclusive, Jichun, Hainan and Shenzhen are much freer.

However, Zhang Heping did not pay much attention to those. What he paid attention to was the news that officials were strictly prohibited from doing business and running enterprises, and that profits were converted into taxes and grants were converted into loans.

So, when his mother Ma Xiuzhen called at noon the next day and said that Chen Liqin asked her to borrow 3 yuan to give to Zhou Chengwu to do a Clivia deal, Zhang Heping frowned.

"Mom, I've said before that Clivia is a scam." Zhang Heping said patiently, "If you lend this money, once Zhou Chengwu is trapped in this scam, the Zhou family will blame you for lending the money, and it may even lead to my cousin's divorce. Consider whether to lend it or not."

Ma Xiuzhen didn't notice Zhang Heping's impatience and tried to persuade him, "Your Aunt Chen said that when Zhou Chengwu makes money, he will have enough money to build a house with us!"

Zhang Heping frowned and asked, "Did you understand what I just said?"

Ma Xiuzhen replied: "I understand!"

"Think about it yourself! If you harm your cousin, I want to see how you will explain to your uncle!" After Zhang Heping said this, he hung up the phone.

Influenced by this phone call, Zhang Heping was in a bad mood for the next half day.

Then, the students who took his acupuncture class at Heping Hospital suffered as he personally gave them hundreds of needles as a practical class.

...

While Zhang Heping was teaching medical students at Heping Hospital, a group of foreigners were holding a financial meeting at the Hong Kong government.

"We must find a way to make Umbrella Corporation disclose the source code of the commercial version of SafeGuard!" Peter, a magnesium-speaking countryman who has stayed in Hong Kong Island for a long time, stared at the Governor of Hong Kong who was presiding over the meeting.

However, the one who responded to him was the Financial Secretary next to the Governor of Hong Kong, "Mr. Pete, I heard that you suppressed the Hong Kong stock market to build a position and made a lot of money recently! Why don't you try to spend money to buy a license and let Umbrella Corporation authorize you to use the commercial version of SafeGuard?"

Shen Bi, chairman of Huifeng Bank, exchanged glances with the chairman of Standard Chartered Bank. They both knew that several major investment banks on Wall Street had approached Umbrella Company to discuss cooperation on electronic trading systems, but ultimately failed.

Therefore, these Chinese people have been dishonest recently. Not only have they bought the stocks of the Chinese-owned Hong Kong Island Bank, they also want to take the opportunity to buy the stocks of Huifeng Bank and Standard Chartered Bank.

Given the nature of these Chinese people, once they control the banks in Hong Kong Island, they will probably continue to force the Peace Group to hand over the Chinese source code of SafeGuard.

Unfortunately, these self-righteous guys never asked the banks in Hong Kong Island whether they would agree or not, nor did they think about the motives of Eagle Capital Company in taking out loans to buy land and build houses in Hong Kong Island.

A Frenchman said loudly, "Mr. Pete, we have sent computer experts and students to Umbrella Corporation to learn computer technology. Please don't take radical actions that will affect our people's studies."

"Peter, you can wait patiently for a few years!" A Japanese man nodded to Old Peter with a smile and said, "When our people finish their studies and return home, you Chinese can come to our country to learn relevant computer technology."

The Dutchman also spoke up: "The people we sent over reported that they could learn about systems and software compiled with Chinese source code at Umbrella Company. There is no need to force them to disclose the source code of Security Guard. Our people can compile computer security software on their own after returning home."

The Deguo people also nodded in agreement, "Yes, there is no need to force the Umbrella Company now! If we anger their boss, Mr. Zhang, they might fire our experts and students."

The Japanese islander spoke again, "Just like the previous meeting in Huadu on the mainland, your customs did not lift the ban on the goods of the Peace Group, so you were not allowed to attend the meeting."

Old Pitt was embarrassed by the words of his so-called allies.

By the way, there is now North Sudan to check and balance Magnesium, so Magnesium is not the only dominant country.

Furthermore, although the economy of Western Europe has entered a period of depression, the economy of Magnesium is not much better. There is still competition between Europe and magnesium, such as the "European Technology Community" that Western Europe is discussing, and its English abbreviation is pronounced "Eureka".

This "Eureka Project" was stimulated by the "Strategic Defense Plan" proposed by Magnesium two years ago, that is, Magnesium's planetary plan for North Sudan.

The first cooperation plan of the "Eureka Project" is to establish a European software engineering center and develop advanced micro-information processors.

Therefore, when the Umbrella Corporation refused to recruit people from magnesium, South Korea, India, Vietnam and other countries, the people in Western Europeans and Japanese were actually very happy in their hearts. They were just waiting for their people to return home after completing their studies and surpass magnesium in software engineering.

As for the mainland, they haven’t even built the Internet, so there is nothing to be afraid of at the moment!

It’s the people in the technical department of Umbrella Corporation who need to be actively won over!

In addition, Western Europe’s “Eureka Project” also proposed an automatic equipment plan for Japan’s unmanned factories; a communication plan for mainland China’s computers, servers and other hardware; and a bioengineering and new materials plan for Magnesium, a total of 5 plans!

"Don't forget that banks in Hong Kong are setting up a bank card association!" Old Pete said very seriously, "If we don't quickly master the source code of the commercial version of Security Guard and build our own bank card association, we will be..."

"Ahem!" Huifeng Bank Chairman Shen Bi coughed, stood up and said to the Governor, "Sorry, the Bank Card Association's meeting is about to start. I have to excuse myself."

After he finished speaking, the Financial Secretary and the Chairman of Standard Chartered Bank both stood up and left the table, going to the meeting room downstairs.

There was silence in the conference room for a while, and then a Japanese asked, "Peter-san, I heard that the Magnesium Investment Bank bought shares of banks in Hong Kong. Do they want to participate in the bank card association in Hong Kong by holding shares?"

After being reminded by the Japanese, people from Western European countries began to communicate privately, but only the Eagles remained firmly on the sidelines.

Because the Americans also control Standard Chartered Bank and Huifeng Bank. Although the major shareholder of Huifeng Bank is the Heping Group, the Heping Group has never interfered in the management of Huifeng Bank. It only sent an accounting firm to conduct on-site inspections and asked Huifeng Bank to rectify some loopholes internally.

Therefore, when it comes to the upcoming era of bank savings cards and credit cards, the Americans believe they have the upper hand.

The key point is that the Hong Kong government is secretly helping the banks in the Eagle Country to communicate with the Umbrella Company. It wants to build a computer security service center in London and establish a Western European bank card joint organization headed by the Eagle Country.

The condition given by the Eagle people is that all hardware should be purchased from Tingmei Trading Company, and only the Umbrella Company needs to provide related software services.

In addition, the Americans also wanted to adopt the installment payment method and pay with the commission of the Western European bank card association, but refused to allow the Umbrella Company to invest in technology.

Zhang Heping would naturally not agree to this kind of cooperation that was a free-for-all. Tingmei Trading had no trouble selling its newly configured computers and servers, but they were just hoarding them recently and didn't want to sell them.

The Americans now have a love-hate relationship with the Peace Group. They dare not provoke the Peace Group for fear of breaking the relatively friendly relationship between them; but they also hope that the Americans will provoke the Peace Group, preferably causing big trouble, and then they, the Americans, will come forward to clean up the mess and build goodwill between the two sides!

"I don't know much about Wall Street investment banks!" The magnesium guy Pete began to play it safe, "But this bank card association needs to be taken seriously. Be careful that they may monopolize global bank card transactions!"

After he finished speaking, Old Pitt glanced at the Governor, but got no response, not even a glance. He could only blame himself for being of too low a rank.

This cannot be blamed on the Magnesium people for not sending senior intelligence personnel here. The main reason is that the senior intelligence officers of the Magnesium country all know one thing: the five American citizens who died accidentally in Hong Kong Island were most likely killed by the killers of the Umbrella Company.

At the same time, they also know that the Hong Kong police have not yet found any evidence of homicide for the five American citizens who died accidentally.

Faced with unknown dangers, unless the senior intelligence officers of the Magnesium Country are stupid enough, they will not come to Hong Kong Island in person to take risks.

In the end, they sent a non-staff intelligence officer to take advantage of the power of the enemy.

There was silence in the conference room for a while, and then the secretary of the Hong Kong government office said, "Everyone, let's get back to the topic of this meeting. How can we establish the Hong Kong Island Futures Electronic Trading System? And then merge it into the Hong Kong Island Bank Electronic Trading System!"

...

Doesn’t Zhang Heping know that the group of foreigners in the Hong Kong government are plotting against him?

Of course he knew about it, as Huifeng Bank's Chairman Shen Bi had informed him in advance.

The key point is that today's situation is the result of his step-by-step guidance.

Instead of recruiting people from China, South Korea, India and Vietnam into the Peace Group, they recruited people from Japan, Europe and other countries. In the end, they allowed people from Japan, Europe and other countries to teach the Chinese afterwards. This is clearly discriminatory treatment and there is also suspicion of instigation.

If it were a mainland company in the past, they would definitely not be able to achieve the level of Zhang Heping, who was only sanctioned by the Chinese but not by Japan and Europe, because they were not cheated and it was impossible for them to open up their technology to allow people from Japan and Europe to come to the company to learn.

By doing this, Zhang Heping is not only trying to sow discord between Europe and China, but is also secretly influencing foreign patent laws.

Zhang Heping does not advocate applying for patents. Even if his concubine Chen Shuting and Director Wang apply for some patents, he does not intend to exercise the patent rights.

If there really is some idiot who applies for a patent using the technology he taught, and then asks him for patent fees, Zhang Heping will agree to it. But will people in other countries who have learned the technology agree to it?

Who doesn't want free technology?

The most important thing is that without patent restrictions, Zhang Heping can quickly promote the development of some technologies and obtain more related books!

Zhang Heping now wants to find a book to study how to prolong life.

So, we have the "Peace Hospital" journal, the Peace Health Medical Research Institute, the Cancer Treatment Institute, and the Neurosurgery Institute!

Compared with medical research institutes and research laboratories, Heping Hospital is actually more like a laboratory, a laboratory that Zhang Heping has prepared to lose money over the long term.

However, even in the laboratory, we must treat it seriously and rigorously.

Zhang Heping rotates through various departments at Heping Hospital, occasionally lending a hand on the operating table, and no one checks whether he has a doctor's license.

Time came to the evening of December 12st. At the invitation of brother-in-law Tang Ren, all the prominent figures in Hong Kong Island came to the Renheyi community on the Peak to attend the New Year party organized by Tang Ren.

Among them, there were a few Japanese people who made Zhang Heping frown!

If Tang Ren had asked Zhang Heping in advance, Zhang Heping would not have allowed him to invite the presidents of the Hong Kong Island branches of Japan's six major banks, even though they had helped stabilize the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar before.

But the Japanese people have now come in, and Zhang Heping can't chase them away in front of so many people.

After all, you still have to save your face.

"Mr. Zhang is back!"

"Mr. Zhang, I heard that you have recently saved a lot of patients!"

"Mr. Zhang, we heard from Director Qu that the outdoor movie Ghost Blows Out the Light that will be shown tonight was written and directed by you, with a total investment of up to 1 million Hong Kong dollars!"

As soon as Zhang Heping got off the car, he started dealing with people greeting him from all around.

The journey home usually took less than a minute, but today it took him more than 30 minutes, stopping and starting, before he finally reached his villa.

What surprised Zhang Heping was that his mother Ma Xiuzhen and her in-laws Tang Ming and Xu Jiefeng rushed over this afternoon.
