395 [Cheap Oriental Daily]

Two days later.

Outside Hong Kong's Kai Tak Airport, Yao Wenjie took Huo Yaowen's suitcase, and listened to Huo Yaowen ask: "Editor-in-Chief Yao, the telegram said that the boss of the "Oriental Daily" would sell the newspaper to us only if he saw me?"

"Yes, I've told that Boss Ma many times, general manager, you accompanied your wife to the UK, I don't know when you will come back, but the other party just insists on seeing you before selling!" Yao Wenjie is also very helpless, when Huo Yaowen left Hong Kong to go to the UK, he had already arranged the company's big and small things, but he didn't expect that within two months, the boss would come back to solve it in person.

"It's so cheap, you must see me personally. ”

Huo Yaowen opened the car door and sat in the co-pilot.

Two days ago, Lituo came to Huo Yaowen in the hospital, talking about Ma Rulong's sale of "Oriental Daily", Yao Wenjie could solve this matter, but I don't know what Ma Rulong is soaking, and he will not sign the contract until he meets Huo Yaowen.

For this reason, Huo Yaowen also had to fly back.

There is no way, who made Ma Rulong's price very cheap, according to the daily sales of "Oriental Daily" as high as 300,000 copies, he only sold more than 13 million, and the price is so cheap that people can't refuse.

……

In the evening, in the conference room of the Oriental Daily.

After several years of development, with the collapse of the Emperor's Daily, Oriental Daily has become one of the largest selling newspapers in Hong Kong with various tips on dog racing and Marseille and newspapers that follow the popular route, and is more attractive to the general public than the old newspapers such as Ming Pao, Wen Wei Po and Ta Kung Pao.

"Brother, do we really want to sell the newspaper to Huo Yaowen so cheaply?"

Ma Ruhu looked unwilling, you must know that now "Oriental Daily" is not a small newspaper with a daily sales of only a few thousand a few years ago, and now it can be said to be the largest newspaper in Hong Kong, this is a legal business, enough for their Ma family to pass on, but they didn't expect to sell it so cheaply to Huo Yaowen, who wrote for their newspaper back then!

"What else should I do?" Ma Rulong glanced at his younger brother Ma Ruhu, knowing that he was unhappy, patted his shoulder, and said with relief: "I know you think it's cheaper, but now the only person who has the ability to take over, is willing to take over, and is not afraid of trouble after taking over, is Huo Yaowen!"

"Alas!" Hearing this, Ma Ruhu sighed deeply.

Since Lei Luo transferred his assets to settle abroad last year, Ma Rulong understood that something seemed to be wrong with the situation, and he had a plan to leave a way back early, but in the past two years, with the retirement of Lei Luo, Lan Gang and other Chinese detectives, no one has pressed on their heads, not only has their income increased sharply, but they are also much bolder, which led to Ma Ruhu being arrested by the police a few days ago and prosecuted for drug trafficking!

Fortunately, the lawyer hired is not a vegetarian, and it took a huge amount of bail to bail my brother out, otherwise, I really don't know what will happen!

From the escape of the deputy commander of Kowloon who often accepted bribes from them two months ago, to the arrest of his younger brother now, coupled with the collective escape of Lei Luo, Lan Gang and other Chinese detectives who once dominated Hong Kong, Ma Rulong can be said to be frightened, he is not a fledgling boy, and understands that this time the British government in Hong Kong under the leadership of the new governor should want to play a big game!

It was precisely because of fear that Ma Rulong had the idea of selling his assets and running away.

His mansions and villas can't be moved for the time being, because the police will definitely know that they are going to run away, and those houses are not worth much, so Ma Rulong is not in a hurry to sell them, but "Oriental Daily" is different, this is an asset worth tens of millions, if you don't get rid of it as soon as possible, it will be a big loss.

Looking for a suitable buyer for the newspaper, there were really few people who couldn't be found for a while, and after thinking about it, Ma Rulong set his sights on Huo Yaowen, who wrote for their newspaper back then!

In the whole of Hong Kong, only Huo Yaowen may buy their newspaper now, after all, there was cooperation back then, Ma Rulong thinks that the relationship with Huo Yaowen was quite harmonious at the beginning, and it should be okay to sell it to the other party.

Then Ma Rulong contacted Yao Wenjie, and as soon as Yao Wenjie heard that "Oriental Daily" was selling it so cheaply, he immediately nodded and promised to buy it, but Ma Rulong kept biting his mouth, and he would only sell it if he saw Huo Yaowen.

This is also something that can't be helped, Ma Rulong wants cash, and preferably in US dollars, and he has to call his account abroad, so Yao Wenjie can't be the master, so he can only send an urgent telegram to the UK to inform Litu and ask him to talk to the boss about it.

……

It was already evening when he came back, and he had to go to Guizhou Street at noon tomorrow to discuss with Ma Rulong about the purchase of the newspaper, so Huo Yaowen did not go back to the villa in the middle of the mountain, but directly asked Yao Wenjie to drive him to the house on Woda Old Road.

When he arrived at home and had a dinner hastily prepared by Zhang's mother, Huo Yaowen went to the bedroom on the third floor, made a phone call to Huo's father and Huo's mother, and said that he would go home for dinner at noon tomorrow, and was asked a lot about Anna's situation by his mother, and he didn't hang up the phone until nine o'clock in the evening, and he had to yawn and take a shower in a hurry, and went to bed to sleep.

After a day's flight, it was really difficult, and in the past month or so, Huo Yaowen has been accompanying Anna, a pregnant woman, Huo Yaowen is indeed a little tired, and as soon as his body touches the bed, he fell asleep in a daze within a few minutes, and snored slightly.

It was past nine o'clock in the morning the next day.

Huo Yaowen rubbed his eyes and walked downstairs.

"Sir, I've made breakfast, you wait a minute, I'll go and give you some heat. "Mama Zhang prepared breakfast as usual.

"Hmm. ”

Huo Yaowen nodded, walked to the table and sat down, picked up the cup and drank a large sip of milk, and then set his eyes on the few newspapers on the table.

"The arrest of the big drug lord shows the ICAC's determination to sweep away the cancer on Hong Kong Island!"

Recently, Ma, a well-known drug lord in Hong Kong, was arrested and investigated by the police on suspicion of drug trafficking, and although he spent a huge amount of money on bail, this also represents the determination of the newly established Office of the Governor General to send the Commission Against Corruption to sweep away the cancer on Hong Kong Island! Just the day before yesterday, the appointed senior deputy prosecutor, Sir Barry Qu, set up an investigation committee to thoroughly investigate the cause of Godber's escape and review the anti-corruption work. He even openly stated that no matter who commits a crime, the new Independent Commission Against Corruption will definitely be swept away, and even if he has fled overseas, he will apply to the international police for joint transnational arrest!"

The Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) was established?

Huo Yaowen didn't expect that he had only been in the UK for more than a month, and the Independent Commission Against Corruption was officially established, and he also arrested the Ma brothers, but I don't know if it was Ma Rulong or Ma Ruhu!

Although Huo Yaowen had guessed that the Ma brothers were so anxious and cheap to sell "Oriental Daily", they must have received some inside information, but looking at the current situation, it seems that it was only after being arrested that they moved the idea of selling assets and trying to escape.

It's no wonder that he thought of these people too well when he watched Hong Kong movies back then, either planting undercover agents in the police force, or bribing the top management of the police force, now it seems that this is much worse than Lei Luo, who ran away ahead of schedule last year.

Huo Yaowen couldn't help but think so.
