Since the hijacking of the Hang Seng Bank escort vehicle, under the pressure of public opinion and Governor MacLehose, the Commissioner of Police of Hong Kong Island has had to dispatch a large number of police forces to conduct a large-scale search for those armed bandits in Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, and the New Territories.

During this period, there was gossip that those bandits were outlaws who had fallen from the Vietnam War, which suddenly made the whole Hong Kong citizens worried and frightened, and when it got dark, few people came out to walk around and play, resulting in a sharp drop in business in nightclubs and other places.

In order to assure the people of Hong Kong that Hong Kong is absolutely safe, in the process of searching for bandits, the high-level police officers cooperated with the Triad Investigation Bureau, which is often seen in movies, to intensify efforts to crack down on those gang members.

For a time, there were many fewer petty thefts in Hong Kong, and law and order was relatively stable.

It's just that after searching for more than half a month, no signs of the bandits have been caught.

……

On the other hand, after Huo Yaowen moved back to the Mid-Levels villa, in addition to writing books at home, accompanying his family, and regularly visiting several companies to inspect, he has also been looking for suitable bodyguards.

In the past, Huo Yaowen didn't look for bodyguards, not that he had a big heart, but he was a person who was reborn from later generations, so he naturally knew that Hong Kong was very unsafe in this era, how could he not want to find a bodyguard?

You must know that he has even quit the problem of smoking, which is enough to show how much he cherishes his second life.

I didn't look for it before, because I didn't feel much need, after all, Huo Yaowen was just a writer in the eyes of the outside world at the beginning, not those tycoons, even if there were really some robbers, he wouldn't target a writer.

Anyway, he hadn't heard of the kidnapping of the well-known writer, but he had seen the news of several Hong Kong tycoons being kidnapped, the most miserable of which was not Xiao Li's son, but another monopoly man who was no less than Xiao Li, he even lost his life!

Now, as Huo Yaowen's business is getting bigger and bigger, although the general impression of him has always been that of a great writer and a great writer, if someone really investigates, it is not difficult to find out that Huo Yaowen still has many industries in Hong Kong.

Not to mention Yaowen Book Publishing Company and several newspapers, magazines, weekly magazines, etc., just holding almost 60% of the shares of Phoenix TV is enough to show that Huo Yaowen is now also a person who belongs to the list of rich.

In addition, once Huo Yaowen successfully acquires the shares of Hutchison & Co., then as a listed company, according to the newly formulated rules and regulations of listed companies after the 73 share disaster, shareholders with a higher shareholding ratio must be disclosed.

At that time, Huo Yaowen's name will definitely be announced, and people will be surprised to find that Huo Yaowen is not only a writer, but also a rich man!

So it's still necessary to find some security personnel now.

It's just that when looking for suitable security personnel, Huo Yaowen had a headache.

Since the 60s, there was a horrific kidnapping of a rich man by the Three Wolves in Hong Kong, in fact, many security companies have been born, but these security companies are not as formalized as later generations, and most of them are young and strong recruits from outside.

If it's a street fight or something, these young security guards may be okay, but if they can really prevent the kidnapping orchestrated by some outlaws, these people are simply not qualified.

In the end, he couldn't find a suitable candidate, so Huo Yaowen could only call Brant and ask him to help think of a way, using Brant's connections to see if he could introduce some qualified bodyguards or foreign security companies.

……

In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed, and it has come to August, the hottest season in Hong Kong.

In the past half month, some big news in Hong Kong, in addition to the arrest of the murderer of the 7 million robbery, is Xiao Li, chairman of Cheung Kong Industrial, who is in the limelight.

He integrated some of the land he had hoarded in the past and set up a real estate company.

Why does a newly established real estate company say that it is in the limelight?

That's because Xiao Li united several real estate companies and property companies to propose a new setting for the construction of residential buildings with a shared area!

In the past, real estate companies built residential buildings, or buildings. Stairs, aisles, fire and other places, these are all built by the real estate company at their own expense, and now Xiao Li proposed to share the area, and suddenly distributed this part of the real estate company's own money to the residents who bought the house.

This kind of proposal, those real estate companies and property companies naturally happy to accept, and even applied to the British government in Hong Kong for this policy. I don't know how many interests are involved behind it, anyway, in the end, the Lands Department agreed to the implementation of this new plan by major real estate companies!

On the afternoon of August 12, in the Kowloon Peninsula Hotel, Fok Yiuwen was drinking afternoon tea with Davide while looking at the "Hong Kong Observer" in his hand.

"Cheung Kong Real Estate is about to implement the latest shared area system in the newly built community on Hong Chong Road in Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon! According to the calculations of this newspaper, once the shared area is officially implemented in a large area in Hong Kong, buyers may lose a lot of usable area of the house!"

Pooled area!

Seeing an article written in the "Observer" about the official opening of the pooled area, Huo Yaowen shook his head helplessly, it seems that the pooled area invented by Xiao Li should soon be popularized in Hong Kong!

To say that a few decades later, the biggest problem for the general public in the mainland should be the high housing prices, and the shared area that occupies almost a quarter of the purchase area!

"What's the matter, boss?" Davide, who was sitting opposite, suddenly noticed the change in the boss's complexion and asked curiously.

"It's nothing, what time is Qi Dezun's appointment with us? Why hasn't he arrived yet?"

Huo Yaowen shook his head, the matter of the shared area is too complicated, there are too many real estate companies and property companies involved, and he can pass the approval of the Land Administration Department so quickly, there must be a big real estate company behind it, otherwise, with the current Xiao Li, he would not have that ability.

Davide glanced at his watch, it was already more than two o'clock in the afternoon, and he couldn't help frowning and said, "He originally made an appointment at one o'clock, I said two o'clock, and now it's ten minutes later, he won't not come, right?"

"No, it may be delayed. ”

In Huo Yaowen's opinion, Qi Dezun would definitely not ask him to come, and then release his pigeons, after all, there is no need for this, and it is easy to offend people.

"Sorry, one step late. ”

Speak of the devil!

Just as he was talking about Qi Dezun, he walked over from the hotel lobby quickly, and said apologetically: "I'm coming from Hong Kong Island, and there is a bit of a traffic jam at the mouth of the undersea tunnel, I'm sorry Mr. Huo." ”

"It's okay, I was stuck in a tunnel for a while. ”

Huo Yaowen shook his head and smiled, got up and shook Qi Dezun's hand, then waved his hand and said, "Mr. Qi, please take a seat." ”

After Qi Dezun sat down, he did not hesitate at all: "This time, Mr. Huo came out to ask Mr. Huo, has he ever thought about investing in Hutchison Foreign Bank?"

"Of course, I did, but the situation at Hutchison doesn't seem to be ideal, and my investment advisor advised me to be cautious. Huo Yaowen pointed to Davide beside him.

"Yes, Hutchison is indeed in trouble now, but I don't think Hutchison is only worth 150 million!" Qi Dezun said with a solemn face.

After supporting Hutchison for another two months, Qi Dezun finally couldn't resist the pressure of external debtors and the board of directors, agreed to HSBC's plan to take a stake in Hutchison, and proposed that HSBC lend Hutchison a large loan.

Originally, the negotiation was good, and HSBC also promised to lend a sum of money to Hutchison & Co. to tide over the difficulties after the acquisition.

But who knew that HSBC only gave a quotation of 150 million yuan for the acquisition of about 33% of the shares of Hutchison & Co., and asked Qi Dezun to step down as chairman of the board.

This made the board of directors of Hutchison, including Qi Dezun himself, very dissatisfied!

You must know that although Hutchison has high debts and its income is not as good as it used to be, its companies include Land and Whampoa Dockyard Co., Ltd., even if they are sold cheaply, they are far more than that!

Originally, Qi Dezun wanted to find other banks to find a way, but now the vast majority of banks in Hong Kong are like mud bodhisattvas crossing the river because of the impact of the stock market crash in 73, and it is difficult to protect themselves.

Those who have the ability to borrow money, except for HSBC, are also scum.

But looking for Standard Chartered Bank will still have the same result as HSBC, and it is not necessary to find it or not.

So Qi Dezun thought about it and looked at Huo Yaowen, although he didn't know if Huo Yaowen could come up with this money, but since the other party had proposed to buy shares, and now he has promised to make an appointment, he thinks that he knows the predicament of Hutchison Foreign Bank, so he should be able to take care of this big gap, right?
