Chapter 341: Different Responses to the Double Pack
Early the next morning, Bao Zixuan watched the news and felt that Bao Yugang's reaction was really fast this time. In fact, when a few people left Li Ji Tea Restaurant yesterday, Huo Yingdong and Dong Haoyun met with the charter king. After the two conveyed their meanings, the charter king directly held a press conference.
At the meeting, he directly announced his resignation as chairman of the Xiangjiang Jockey Club and director of Bao Huo Dong Mining Company, and also announced that Su Haiwen had nothing to do with the Bao family in the future. Whether he lives or dies outside is his own business, don't associate him with the Bao family. After saying these words, the press conference was announced to end without giving the reporter time to ask questions.
Therefore, there is Bao Zixuan's emotion, and all the media almost used the title of "Chartered Boat King Compromise". No one would have thought that the charter king would be so decisive in order to maintain the unity between Chinese businessmen and fight for different Bao Zixuan. People can't find fault with it, and many people have seen the generosity of the charter king.
However, this incident also had some impact on Bao Zixuan to a certain extent, thinking that he was a bit of a bully to honest people. The charter king was able to exclude his eldest son-in-law's family and resign as chairman of the Jockey Club. He was still not satisfied, and actually asked the family to withdraw from the board of directors of Bao Huo Dong Mining Company, which to a certain extent expelled the charter king from the inner circle formed by Bao Zixuan and Huo Yingdong.
Sing Tao Daily, as the number one exposer of Bao Zixuan's black material, introduced many of the great achievements of the charter king this time, and they all said to have become a model of Chinese businessmen in Xiangjiang. To fight for different Bao Zixuan to such a point, it can be seen that the charter king is open-minded.
If the war starts now, HSBC and Swire will definitely spare no effort to support the charter king, and the strength of Heiyun is strong. But it's really not necessarily possible to do what Wharf does, at most it is a two-defeat injury. And for the prosperity of Xiangjiang, the charter boat king was able to give in front of a junior, which also reflected Bao Zixuan's domineering.
Li Yulin really didn't know what to say when she saw the report, and what she was worried about still happened. But thinking that his son can force Bao Yugang like this, there are no one, at least in Xiangjiang, few people can do it.
Looking at the report, Shen Bi called Bao Yugang, and the HSBC senior also knew that the charter boat king would definitely hate him. After all, the price paid this time is a bit big, even to the point of abandoning the car to protect the handsome.
Shen Bi: "Bao Sheng, you don't have to do this. If you have any difficulties, HSBC will definitely support you, but I have always regarded you as my best friend. ”
Bao Yugang: "It's not due to Shen Sheng, but I have already decided on this matter." Don't mention it again, and although Su Haiwen has left the Bao family, my daughter is still there. I hope Shen Sheng can take care of it when making any decisions, we are good friends, aren't we!"
Shen Bi knew that this was a warning given to him by Bao Yugang, but when was he threatened by a wealthy Chinese man as an HSBC Taipan. The old family in Britain may make him have some scruples, most of the current Chinese businessmen are supported by him, at least Shen Bi thinks so, even Bao Yugang, the former richest man in Xiangjiang, he also thinks that he is not enough in the face of absolute strength.
Shen Bi: "Bao Sheng, now your relationship with Bao Zixuan is not as good as before. He was able to persecute you like this this time, and he might not know what he would do next time! I hope you should think about it carefully, and sometimes don't go all the way to the dark. Your development is in Hong Kong, and the prosperity of Hong Kong is inseparable from the contribution of HSBC. Returning to everything is unknown, and you still have to prepare for both. ”
Bao Yugang: "Thank you Shen Sheng for reminding me that I have my own plan for the development of the Bao family." Don't bother with you, let's think about the next problems for HSBC!"
Bao Yugang knew that the Bao family had paid the price this time. Although HSBC's status in Hong Kong is transcendent, it cannot cover the sky with one hand. Make a choice at a critical moment, then with Bao Zixuan's character, it is impossible not to react at all.
After listening to Bao Yugang's words, Shen Bi also began to worry, yes! The charter boat king paid the price, HSBC did much more ruthlessly than the Bao family this time, could Bao Zixuan not react at all!
In fact, Bao Zixuan is also thinking about this question, whether to break up now or wait until the Sino-British negotiations HSBC is in trouble. However, the gentleman does not take revenge overnight, and it is not his character to be so forbearing. If you really come to a certain point, you will be said that you are an old fox, which is not in line with what he does at this age. Since God has given him a chance to live once, he has not let himself swallow his anger.
So Bao Zixuan did not hesitate to make an appointment with Sumitomo Yi, although cooperating with RB Bank is not a long-term solution. However, when you don't have a bank, it can be a contingency plan, and you can also share some of the pressure.
Sumitomo Yi saw Bao Zixuan and said, "Hello Bao Sang! ”
Bao Zixuan: "Mr. Sumitomo is polite, a lot of things have happened recently. I'm a person who likes to go straight, and if Heiyun hands over most of the settlement business in Hong Kong to Sumitomo Bank, will you be able to withstand the pressure from HSBC. ”
Although Sumitomo Yi thought a lot when he came, he didn't expect Bao Zixuan to be so direct. This was something he didn't expect, and his good professionalism made him react quickly, saying: "Although HSBC is a British bank, it only has some influence in Xiangjiang and the Far East, and Sumitomo Bank is headquartered here. Everything is not a problem, what requirements can be said directly by Bao Sang, and I will definitely meet it if I can do it. ”
Bao Zixuan: "I'm relieved to have your words, I don't want you to provide me with any preferential reductions." After all, there are also costs for your operation, and there is only one requirement for the confidentiality of customer information and the security of funds. ”
Sumitomo Yi didn't expect Bao Zixuan's request to be so simple, but considering the role played by HSBC this time. Immediately understood, so he said very seriously: "The Sumitomo family has been in the banking industry for more than 100 years, and credibility is the most basic guarantee. In the name of the Sumitomo family, I would like to assure you that the core interests of our customers will be guaranteed. ”
Bao Zixuan: "That's good, you arrange personnel to come over tomorrow to open bank accounts for Heiyun employees, and their salaries will be paid by your bank in the future, and at the same time, I will also ask all customers to send remittances to Sumitomo Bank as much as possible, if your bank does not have so many Hong Kong dollars, they can be paid in yen." ”
The appreciation of the yen in the future period is like a rocket, and the assets of employees are increasing by at least 15% every year, which is why Bao Zixuan chose RB Bank.
Sumitomo didn't expect things to go so smoothly, how could the talks be over so quickly. And it's much easier to pay yen, and you can also earn a difference in the exchange rate. Looking at Sumitomo Yi's surprised expression, Bao Zixuan continued: "Old Man Dong said that your family's business reputation, and I have no reason not to believe that he can pack tickets with his personality. ”
Sumitomo Yi hurriedly explained the situation to the RB headquarters, and there was no one who could negotiate such a big list this time. And the strength of the Sumitomo family will not be afraid of him HSBC, even in Xiangjiang.
When Sumitomo Yi was still in the Black Cloud office area, he heard Bao Zixuan's voice on the radio.
Bao Zixuan: "Hello everyone, I'm Bao Zixuan. I have a lot of responsibility for the failure of this acquisition of Swire & Co., not because we are not strong, but because someone is stabbing in the back. ”
"For partners who don't take us seriously, we can't put a hot face on someone's cold ass. Therefore, I have decided that from next month, all employees in Heungjiang will no longer use HSBC to pay salaries. Sumitomo Bank will provide business services to us, and Sumitomo Bank staff will go to the offices of each department to open bank accounts tomorrow in the order of the list. ”
"And the employees who use HSBC bank accounts now will be gradually deregistered tomorrow, and the company will arrange security guards to escort everyone to the Sumitomo Bank Xiangjiang branch, or you can deposit in other banks. The Group will also close its accounts with HSBC, and we hope that all employees will understand and accept the company's unified arrangement. And thank you all for your support for Kuroyun and me during the crisis; ”
The composition of the staff of Xiangjiang Black Cloud is very mixed, and basically the employees of each country use their own bank to pay their salaries. Only local employees in Hong Kong will use HSBC or Standard Chartered Bank for settlement. And HSBC is the main partner bank, this time it is equivalent to the point of not dying.
