Rebirth of the Tech Madman

...

House seemingly endless rain……

Huluo Pingyang was bullied by dogs...

These and other words are the words Pu Weishi most wants to use to describe his current emotion.

As for He Shanheng, who was determined to lead Hang Seng to leave, his mouth was dry after negotiating, and he had only one sentence left in the end, What benefits did Tang Huan promise to make you so determined to leave HSBC?

You were wrong from the beginning. Hang Seng had no intention of getting involved in the entanglement between HSBC and Qinhe, but because of this, HSBC took away a lot of resources. He Shanheng, who has always maintained a calm attitude, explained in a calm tone: My decision is only for the benefit of Hang Seng. As powerful as HSBC, it has to use internationalization strategies to cunningly avoid political risks, so why is it so strange that Hang Seng wants to fully control its own destiny? ? If you have to find responsibility, you can only blame HSBC for creating such an opportunity.

Pu Weishi, who was at a loss for words, was so choked that he rolled his eyes, and finally he could only say angrily: Don't you just want to take back the control of Hang Seng, you can do what you want, but you have to be ready to be bullied by the HSBC Lions. Prepare to speak.

I can understand that although HSBC has a big business, the recent expenses are really considerable. He Shanheng smiled slightly, From this perspective, HSBC let go of Hang Seng, just in time to replenish cash flow.

Pu Weishi snorted, not accepting the other party's favor at all. HSBC let go of Hang Seng, not only lost a milk cow that contributed stable income, but also added a competitor in the Xiangjiang market, so he didn't have to worry about it.

At the beginning, Pu Weishi really held the idea that he would never let go, but He Shanheng's attitude was very firm - if HSBC refused to agree, then he would quickly send a new management to take over Hang Seng, and he would quit.

This tactic of killing fish and breaking nets immediately threatened HSBC.

It's not that the dignified HSBC was so overwhelmed by Tang Huan that it couldn't deploy manpower, but that the difference in circles between Chinese-funded banks and British-funded foreign banks brought about the foreseeable difficulty of taking over, which was really daunting .

He Shanheng, the founder of Hang Seng, is the spiritual leader of Hang Seng who does his part and is expected by all. Being deeply influenced by Confucian culture, he has written books to provide training for Hang Seng Bank employees, and has even been adopted as an indispensable training material by the entire Hong Kong banking industry.

So, at least within the scope of Hang Seng, He Shanheng's disciples and grandchildren are everywhere. If he takes people away, the daily operating structure of Hang Seng Bank will definitely be hollowed out. No matter how proud HSBC is, it has no confidence to really support Hang Seng that has fallen apart.

Instead of adding a loss out of thin air, HSBC might as well consider how to make a fortune on Hang Seng.

In the end, Tang Huan grabbed HSBC's seven inches and forced it to submit step by step even though it was unwilling.

Now it is about to enter 1988, and there are less than 10 years left before the return of Xiangjiang. It seems quite ample, but for a giant like HSBC, the promotion of internationalization cannot afford to be delayed.

The Oceanic Bank of the United States has worked hard for more than 10 years to achieve its current maturity; the Midland Bank in the UK is also the only option that does not have this store in this village.

Compared with these more important strategic layouts, losing control of Hang Seng is certainly a heart-wrenching reluctance, but it is not absolutely unacceptable.

...

When the preconditions for handing over control of Hang Seng Bank were met, HSBC couldn't wait to start negotiations with Tang Huan on Midland Bank.

HSBC is indeed in a bit of a hurry. Standard Chartered Bank on the Xiangjiang side has not yet shown any intention of participating in the competition; but there is definite news from the UK that another Lloyds Bank, one of the four major banks in the UK, has also The same bank that tried to hostilely acquire Standard Chartered Bank last year but was repelled by the white warrior formed by Bao Yugang and Qiu Deba also targeted Midland Bank.

It's just that Tang Huan was too dark, and offered another 1.6 billion US dollars for the Midland Bank that he controlled in various forms. Even if HSBC is a local rich man, it is a bit too much.

Although Tang Huan didn't know that Tang Huan only offered a sweeping price of more than 400 million US dollars for the 14.9% of Midland Bank shares he apparently held, but HSBC could clearly feel how malicious this old rival was. Asking prices.

...

When the two parties who met in secret were negotiating nervously, Hu Yinmeng, who accompanied his father to the mainland to visit relatives, returned to Xiangjiang.

How's it going, you pioneered a family visiting group from the mainland, is everything going well in the mainland? Tang Huan asked with great interest.

The mainland officials are very well prepared and helped most of the group members find their relatives who had been separated for decades. There were scenes of joys and sorrows in the world, one after another. After Hu Yinmeng finished his introduction, he also asked about HSBC, How is it, this local rich man has been punished by you and complained too much, right?

I'm discussing the second cut, how to cut the meat so that HSBC is willing to accept it. Tang Huanzhi laughed complacently, and then changed the subject: I happened to meet Shao Yifu when I went to condolences to Media Asia TV after the fire broke out. After we met, he specifically talked about his willingness to cooperate in the further exchange of artists and the compatibility of Miss Xiangjiang and Miss Chinese.”

Fang Yihua has tested my tone a long time ago. They are not fuel-efficient lamps, and the abacus inside is crackling. Hu Yinmeng cut off, Let's talk about the further exchange of artists. In recent years, TVB has appeared. There was a shortage of life, especially after Andy Lau and others' failed uprising of the 'Five Tiger Generals' was suppressed, which made people's hearts fluctuate even more.

In order to solve this problem, tvb held an event called 'Super Nova Election' this year, with the purpose of discovering new stars for TV dramas. The final winners were the male super new star - Peng Wenjian, and the female super new star - Liang Peiling, who were selected Together they were sent to tvb's Jin Yong martial arts TV series Sword of Enmity and Enmity to celebrate Taiwan this year, playing the male lead Chen Jialuo and the female lead Princess Xiangxiang.

As a result, the well-known promotion plan encountered Waterloo this time, and the audience didn't buy it at all.

Actually, there are traces of this result. Peng Wenjian, who plays the leading role Chen Jialuo, is only 18 years old this year. Apart from his acting skills being a bit immature, his temperament is also very different. This has caused a lot of negative comments from the audience. The road to stardom has just begun. , cast a shadow, and did not help solve tvb's niche.

It's strange to say that they are also newcomers. The two heroines in the show - Luo Huijuan and Liang Peiling who play the roles of Huo Qingtong and Princess Xiangxiang, have successfully entered the entertainment circle. It is not in vain that TVB is highly praised.

Tang Huan said with a smile: Perhaps female artists are easier to control, so they are also more likely to be talented, while male artists have more complicated thoughts. After all, the current Hong Kong society puts more realistic and heavy pressure on men.

It's possible. Now TVB's most hard-working young student is Tony Leung. Hu Yinmeng nodded, On the other hand, DreamWorks, since the formation of the artist training class and Xiangjiang Academy for Performing Arts training system, has attracted , and even stopped many young people who planned to sign up for TVB to come and work hard, and the new artists successfully packaged and launched are quite impressive.

Tang Huan opened up the gap in TVB's absolute monopoly on its artists very early on. DreamWorks could hire the other's stars. Although Fang Yihua did not make much trouble in private, this tradition has still been formed.

It can be said that this mechanism of exchanging financial resources for growth space played an important role in the early development of DreamWorks; now that TVB hopes to be rewarded, it is quite ironic, but it is also very smart.

Tang Huan didn't object to this kind of cooperation, which would benefit both sides, and instead asked, Where is the beauty pageant?

The main reason is that Miss Chinese and Miss Xiangjiang fought too hard this year. Although they didn't want to tear their face apart and directly arranged the event to fight on the same day, they also diverted social attention from each other that cannot be ignored.

Hu Yin thought for a while, tvb is no longer a mechanism dominated by artistic creation. Gan Guoliang's resignation is a good example of the problem. The ongoing group split will inevitably cause greater financial pressure, and there will be no stable tertiary industry. , come to support each other, and tvb, which is a pure TV station, is unwilling to continue playing the financial game with Media Asia TV and DreamWorks.

And in essence, the goals of Miss Chinese and Miss Xiangjiang are different. TVB hopes that Miss Chinese will completely focus on the Chinese community around the world, and the place of Xiangjiang will be left to Miss Xiangjiang in a division of labor and cooperation. Send the winner to participate in the Miss Chinese contest.

Xiangjiang's structure is limited, so coordination is a good way to get the best of both worlds. Tang Huan's tone showed agreement.

tvb is in a difficult situation, so it lowered its figure and sought in-depth cooperation between the two. On the surface, it looks infinitely beautiful, but in the actual implementation process, bumps and bumps are absolutely inevitable, so troublesome! Hu Yinmeng rolled his eyes , ill-humoredly brightened his not-positive attitude.

It's better to have a long-term perspective. Tang Huan said a little out of bounds: The fire of Media Asia TV will inevitably make DreamWorks lose a powerful terminal for releasing program content, and the construction of the new headquarters cannot be so fast. It will take some time to resume broadcasting, and it may be a good thing for TVB to borrow the light of DreamWorks' strong production capabilities.

Hu Yinmeng murmured suspiciously: Why do I feel that you are not only not annoyed by the burning of Media Asia TV's headquarters, but rather secretly pleased? Could it be that the extra 80 million US dollars given by HSBC made the Do you feel that you have taken advantage of it?

Don't talk nonsense, so as not to shake the morale of MediaAsia TV. Tang Huan patted Hu Yinmeng, Perhaps, this is really a secret arrangement.

...

Under strong pressure, HSBC finally knelt down. Only Tang Huan's own 14.9% stake in Midland Bank, which he bought for 400 million U.S. dollars, turned into more than 400 million pounds.

In fact, as Bao Yugang once said, if HSBC can invite Tang Huan to its board of directors, all the troubles will be solved much easier.

But obviously the assumption is the assumption, and now HSBC can only use real money to make up for its mistakes. It was like a burly man who had suffered from a serious illness, losing weight at a speed visible to the naked eye.

However, this is not over yet. Tang Huan’s other side dish for HSBC—creating a group of HSBC shareholders to sue HSBC for its business mistakes to protect his own rights—has already spread across Hong Kong.

What surprised the media and the public most was that Liu Luanxiong, the bone dismantling expert who used to be a HSBC thug who charged into attacking Heung Kong Electric in the stock market, came forward to speak out, almost as a tainted witness and said All kinds of inside stories, and even a book was published in a hurry, explaining the endless eccentricities of the capital market with examples.

Now, Liu Luanxiong became famous again, but not in the form of a stock market sniper, but in the form of a writer. He even held a signing event in the trading square where the Hong Kong Stock Exchange is located, attracting a large number of onlookers.

The photos of Liu Luanxiong in the newspapers, wearing glasses and flying like a pen, made people talk a lot-this guy can't pay off his own bones. Come to kill yourself?

But the reality is that Liu Luanxiong, who is wearing a brand-new aura, is very safe. His books are sold outside Hong Kong, and there is no distinction between high and low in Hong Kong. Many people have his masterpieces written with blood and tears on their desks. .

It is not difficult to imagine that Liu Luanxiong's revelations have further confirmed HSBC's various improper practices. ⑧± Miao (.*) pen ⑧± Pavilion ⑧±, o

However, the Hong Kong government stated vaguely that it does not intend to hold HSBC accountable.

After the stock market crash in October, the Hang Seng Index fell to 1876.18 points in early December, and finally hit the bottom. Compared with the previous highest point of more than 4,000 points, it was directly cut by more than half.

It can be seen from this that the Hong Kong capital market has been hit hard.

The Hong Kong government uses this as the main excuse, believing that the restoration of Hong Kong's economic order cannot be separated from HSBC, a quasi-central bank-under the overall situation, it is not appropriate to make extra troubles.

This argument has won the support of many Chinese elites, who directly asked - after HSBC was brought down, how to fill in the gaps left, should we count on those Chinese-funded banks that have been closing down one after another, or let the Bank of China, which represents the mainland, come to the top?

Especially when HSBC inevitably admitted that it had made a small business mistake, and signed the so-called new accounting arrangement with the Hong Kong government's financial affairs department, that is, to open a Hong Kong dollar account with the Hong Kong government's foreign exchange funds to maintain the balance It is not less than the total net balance of all other bank settlement accounts in the entire Xiangjiang banking system. This group is even louder, HSBC is going to let go of the responsibility of the central bank, what should Xiangjiang do?

Tang Huan's reaction to this was very speechless-Nimma, being a slave is already becoming dependent, there is really no way.
