(.) Zhou Liwen did not hide it, and carefully explained the situation to Li Dong, not only the incident, but also the details and all the details of his own investigation, and finally talked about his own speculations and concerns.

After listening quietly, Li Dong's expression did not change much, but his eyes hidden behind his glasses narrowed slightly. Sitting on the sand, Li Dong seemed to be thinking about something, Zhou Liwen didn't bother, sat quietly on the side and waited, until it took a long time for Li Dong to speak.

"Thank you for telling me calmly, it's his luck that the dog can teach a friend like you, you don't have to meddle in this matter, I'll deal with it."

"Uncle......." As soon as Zhou Liwen spoke, Li Dong waved his hand at him, and then he got up and picked up the phone and called the Ka Nei line, and after a while, David, who had just gone out for a short time, rushed over.

"Father......?"

"You bring your brother over immediately, don't ask anything, don't say anything, the sooner the better"

"Good father." David was surprised, but he didn't ask why, he quickly nodded and agreed, just as he was about to go out, Li Dong called him again: "By the way, don't tell your brother about Zhou Xian's nephew coming here today, including the people in the company, tell them, if anyone spreads out, let him leave immediately."

David was stunned, glanced at Zhou Liwen, then nodded and immediately turned to leave.

After David left, Li Dong said to Zhou Liwen with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, nephew, I won't keep you." ”

"That's what I'm supposed to do, and I said goodbye to my uncle." Zhou Liwen got up and shook hands with Li Dong, and when they broke up, they obviously felt that the old man deliberately added strength. Zhou Liwen knew the old man's arrangement, and the other party obviously didn't want to involve Zhou Liwen, after all, Zhou Liwen had already helped so much, and it would be too much to implicate Zhou Liwen in this matter.

Zhou Liwen didn't know how Li Dong finally talked to Richard, originally according to the itinerary, Zhou Liwen should go back to the United States, but because of this incident, he temporarily stayed in Xiangjiang and watched the exhibition of events with the mentality of a bystander.

At the same time, Zhou Liwen was not idle, and his subordinates were still collecting information from all sides. However, the more information was collected, the more puzzled Zhou Liwen became, because in the information collected in the later stage, he did not directly enter the deployment of Xiangjiang Holdings Xiangjiang Telecom, but in the intelligence he investigated, it was revealed that the huge amount of $1oo dollars was clearly allocated by Goldman Sachs headquarters, and it was directly responsible for Brown Lang, president of Goldman Sachs' Asia-Pacific investment department.

This clearly contradictory information made Zhou Liwen really puzzled, he was a little puzzled, he was a little puzzled that since the funds were not allocated by Goldman Sachs headquarters, and Goldman Sachs did not have this strategy, then where did the funds come from? Could it be that Blang failed to carry out private equity funds behind the back of the headquarters? But this doesn't make sense, because judging from the bank's data, the flow of funds came from Goldman Sachs' account, which is undoubtedly a thing. Brown, as a senior executive of Goldman Sachs, even if he has the right to hide such a large amount of money, so what is the truth?

Zhou Liwen racked his brains and didn't figure it out, and the more he investigated, the more confused he became. And he is a little ambiguous in some aspects of information collection, after all, Goldman Sachs is not an ordinary company, and he Zhou Liwen is not pib, and it is already his greatest effort to do this.

A week passed quickly, and when the second week came, Richard still did not hold a shareholders' meeting, as if Bai Fugui's acquisition letter to him had not been received at all. As for what decision Richard made after consulting with his father, Zhou Liwen did not know, but he was sure that with Li Dong's foresight, character and clever means, there should not be many problems in handling this matter.

Just when Zhou Liwen thought that this matter was about to pass, who would have thought that Bai Fugui, who had been quiet for more than a week, suddenly unilaterally held a press conference, at which he announced that he would carry out a comprehensive acquisition of Heung Kong Telecom, and at the same time put forward a package plan, claiming that he would make an acquisition offer to Heung Kong Telecom with a capital of 3 billion yuan, and promised that after the completion of the acquisition, he would reorganize and merge the core business of Heung Kong Telecom, so as to enhance its profitability and ensure that its stock price rises and returns to the society.

As soon as this news was disclosed, it caused an uproar in the whole of Xiangjiang, because in the eyes of everyone, Bai Fugui did not have the ability to acquire Xiangjiang Telecom, and it was simply a fool's dream to use his assets to take out 3o billion yuan for a comprehensive acquisition. On the spot, a reporter raised this question and questioned Bai Fugui's comprehensive acquisition funds. And Bai Fugui, who had been prepared for a long time, told everyone present that there was no problem with the funds, and he already had 1oo billion US dollars of funds that could be called at any time, and several other major banks had also authorized and supported his funds, for this reason, not to mention 3o billion yuan, it was a trivial matter for Bai Fugui to be 2.6 billion or more. At the same time, he expressed his determination and optimism to the community for the full acquisition of Heung Kong Telecom.

Finally, Bai Fugui also informed everyone that the formal acquisition letter had been delivered to Heung Kong Telecom last week, but since Heung Kong Telecom has not given a positive reply and has not convened a general meeting of shareholders as soon as possible in accordance with the procedures, his press conference today is not only to officially announce the matter, but also to urge Heung Kong Telecom to reply to this matter.

The time before and after the press conference was not long, only about half an hour, but this half hour made the entire Xiangjiang shake. Just 10 minutes after the press conference, a large number of reporters poured into the headquarters of Heung Kong Telecom, blocking the door and demanding an interview with Richard, hoping that Heung Kong Telecom would give a positive response to Bai Fugui's acquisition case.

But to everyone's surprise, Richard did not appear in front of everyone, and Xiangjiang Telecom only sent a vice president to reply to reporters. According to the vice president's words, Heung Kong Telecom's proposal for Bai Fugui's acquisition is nonsense at all, and according to Heung Kong Telecom, Bai Fugui is purely bragging, and he simply does not have the ability and funds to make the acquisition. In addition, as for Bai Fugui's so-called acquisition letter, Xiangjiang Telecom also denied it, and Xiangjiang Telecom claimed that it had never received the so-called acquisition letter, and they felt that Bai Fugui's statement was a conspiracy, where was there a situation where the acquirer did not disclose it for more than a week after issuing the acquisition letter? What's more, this is still without the approval of the acquiree. Furthermore, if Bai Fugui wants to determine the attitude of Heung Kong Telecom, why not go through the normal procedures? On the contrary, it is still used to make it public?

This series of questions was thrown out, and Xiangjiang Telecom said that Bai Fugui was obviously ill-intentioned and intended to use this method to attract attention, and was likely to take this opportunity to speculate in the stock market. In the end, Heung Kong Telecommunications issued a stern warning to Bai Fugui to stop properly, otherwise they would report to the ICAC to accuse the other party of such clumsy business practices.

The reply from the Heung Kong Telecommunications side made the reporters who were rushing to grab the news in an uproar, and they were surprised and couldn't help but be excited. This is big news, the acquirer claims to have made a purchase letter, and has also proposed an astronomical amount for a full acquisition. The respondent replied that it had not received the acquisition letter at all, and the so-called acquirer did not exist at all.

This is an almost contradictory statement, with two sides expressing their own views and statements in diametrically opposed directions. Isn't that kind of news eye-catching enough? Immediately, the reporters were as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they chased after Xiangjiang Telecom desperately to ask questions, but Xiangjiang Telecom did not give any more explanations, and left after saying this, and did not answer any questions from reporters.

At the same time, due to the incident, the stock of Heung Kong Telecom rose sharply on the same day, becoming one of the stocks with the highest increase on the day. With the outside world speculating about the authenticity of this incident and gossip flying all over the sky, Bai Fugui sat in his office with a sneer on his face, while his henchman Meng Jiang stood respectfully at his desk.

"What a second Li child, he actually played such a hand for Lao Tzu? Playing scoundrels? Hmph, okay" Bai Fugui's face...

Ugly and scolding, he expected almost everything, and even thought that Richard might have hit reporters in the official language of "no comment". But he never thought that the villain, who was known as a business genius, would play such a game with him, it was just talking nonsense with his eyes open.

"Boss, when we first delivered the letter, we had the other party's signature, and they couldn't rely on it, or should I announce this signature to reporters?"

Meng Jiang looked at the angry Bai Fugui and hurriedly gave him an idea. Bai Fugui glanced at him, and instead of agreeing as he imagined, he frowned deeply.

Although Meng Jiang's suggestion is feasible, in Bai Fugui's opinion, it doesn't make much sense to do so. Because when he first sent the purchase letter, Bai Fugui deliberately didn't let too many people know, so it was relatively low-key to send it out, including signing for it. More importantly, the signatory was not Richard, nor was it one of his vice presidents or important figures, but it was just handed to the headquarters of Heung Kong Telecom like an ordinary letter, and the front desk signed for it normally. In this way, what if he takes out the signature and announces it to reporters? When the other party says "I didn't receive it" or "the letter is lost", he can cover up the matter. You must know that a large group like Heung Kong Telecom has a lot of express mail and letters every day, and it is normal for the staff below to lose the letters for a while. Besides, just as Heung Kong Telecom replied, even if he Bai Fugui is the acquirer, but he did not confirm with Heung Kong Telecom after receiving the acquisition letter, and even the negotiations between the top management were not held once, so it is normal for them not to receive the acquisition letter, and the signing does not mean anything at all.

Since Richard can now flatly deny the existence of the acquisition letter, it is normal for him to go further, if Bai Fugui insists on biting the acquisition letter, the two sides will be too far away from the topic to debate whether the acquisition letter will be received or not. Bai Fugui didn't want to go back and forth in this regard, so it was simply unnecessary to say what to sign for and announce to reporters.

"It's not necessary." Bai Fugui replied after thinking about it, he thought about it and said, "You go to Zeng Zihang and inquire about Richard's actions in Xiangjiang Telecom now." This guy has taken my land and there has been no news, it's just a straw bale."

"Yes, yes, I'll go immediately" Meng Jiang hurriedly agreed, turned around and left. But only a few minutes later, Meng Jiang hurried back.

"Boss, Boss Zeng took the initiative to give me information."

"What do you say" Bai Fugui suddenly jumped up and hurriedly asked.

"He said that he had already bought some of the shares yesterday, and not only him, but also several other shareholders have also made moves."

"Why did this bastard give me news today about what happened yesterday," Bai Fugui slapped the table angrily and scolded.

Meng Jiang stood there silently, but he didn't think so, what's the use of this question and yelling at himself? If you want to ask, go directly to Zeng Zihang, what's more, didn't you tell Zeng Zihang in advance when you held a press conference, don't talk about the second boss, everyone is the same.

"Okay, you go out" Bai Fugui scolded a few words, saw that Meng Jiang was still standing there and waved his hand angrily, and after Meng Jiang left, he thought about it for a while, picked up the phone and dialed a number.

"Mr. Liang, I'm Bai Fugui." After the phone was connected, Bai Fugui said to the phone in an extremely polite tone, and then reported the things he had just given birth to the other party one by one.

"What should I do now? Do you want to contact Mr. Brown, now that he has to send an arrow on the line, I think the funds he has prepared are really not good, so I will immediately call it to acquire Heung Kong Telecom?"

"Your brains are in water?" Who would have thought that the other party would scold: "You idiot, you are hard at this time, is Lao Tzu's money blown by the wind?" Aren't there any of our people in Hong Kong Telecom? Is he okay? ”

Bai Fugui's head suddenly oozed sweat, wiped the beads of sweat with a tissue, and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, he just told me a piece of news, that is, about shares."

After Bai Fugui told the other party the news about Zeng Zihang's feedback, the other party said impatiently: "I said Lao Bai, you are not the first day of mixing, since he has already given you the news, what are you afraid of?" Isn't your ICAC in Hong Kong very powerful? Just let the wind go directly to the ICAC, wouldn't it be better to wait for the chaos over there to be a mess on the side of Hong Kong Telecom? I have to teach you this little thing, I really don't know how you got to this point. ”

Bai Fugui scolded the other party so that his face was blue and red for a while, but he didn't dare to refute, he patiently explained: "Mr. Liang, it's not that I'm cowardly, I always think that it's better not to make a big deal or not to make a big deal about this matter, if you really want to stab the ICAC, there will be no room for maneuver." It's better for us to use this matter as a bargaining chip, and when the time comes, the formal acquisition will start to throw out the chips, and the other party will not dare to act rashly. This bullet is much more threatening in the gun than it is when it is fired, don't you think so? ”

"It's you," the other party scolded very unceremoniously: "There are shortcuts that don't take and take so many curves and toss a fart?" Just poke it directly to the ICAC, and then wait for the low-price acquisition. It's really fucking troublesome, where is this going to be so much trouble in the mainland, Lao Tzu directly blocked his company with a phone call, and it is also a matter of one sentence. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Bai Fugui to answer, the other party hung up. Stunned, holding the microphone that had been silent, Bai Fugui was so angry that he scolded "hit the street", and then hung up the phone extremely depressed.

Although he Bai Fugui is a tycoon in Xiangjiang, he knows very well in his heart that his gold content as a tycoon is not high, and his status, identity, including wealth, are closely related to Mr. Liang. To put it mildly, he would rather offend Mr. Liang than he would easily offend Mr. Liang, because there was nothing he could do about it, but once Mr. Liang was on fire, pinching him to death was like pinching a bedbug to death.

Speaking of the acquisition of Xiangjiang Telecom, even his most trusted subordinate Meng Jiang did not know, in fact, the real person behind the scenes was this Mr. Liang. He Bai Fugui has been Mr. Liang's white gloves for a long time, and the real owner of a large part of his inland industry is Mr. Liang, and Bai Fugui is just a name.

As for the Goldman Sachs side that Meng Jiang said, it is actually Mr. Liang's partner, and the $1oo million dollars is not Goldman Sachs' money at all, but the funds mobilized by Mr. Liang. Mr. Liang's purpose is very clear, that is, to use Xiangjiang Telecommunications to get his hands, and what Bai Fugui has to do is to do this for Mr. Liang.

Although Bai Fugui had a lot of objections to Mr. Liang's request, he was just like what he said on the phone, if he really stabbed the matter to the ICAC, there would be no room for maneuver in this matter. At the beginning, he found Zeng Zihang and asked Zeng Zihang to do this matter, not to make things unavoidable, but to use it as a deterrent, or to force the other party to make concessions. But who would have thought that Mr. Liang didn't think so, he was used to that kind of simple and crude methods, and he didn't take Bai Fugui's concerns at all.

But Mr. Liang has this qualification, and he doesn't have the confidence to be rich and rich. If he really does this, it is equivalent to officially tearing his face with the Li family directly, how will he mix in Xiangjiang in the future? can think about it, Bai Fugui can only do what Mr. Liang tells in the end, because he knows very well that offending the Li family in Xiangjiang is at most being rejected by the other party, and if he offends Mr. Liang, then waiting for Bai Fugui is not so simple, maybe his current identity and status will dissipate like a cloud

After thinking about it clearly, Bai Fugui no longer hesitated, he immediately called Meng Jiang to find him, and then instructed him in detail, asking him not to reveal any news and report to the ICAC anonymously. Meng Jiang was immediately startled when he heard this, but he didn't dare not do what the boss told him, so he quickly agreed after a little hesitation, and hurriedly rushed to prepare. That night, Bai Fugui almost didn't sleep all night, and he didn't let go until Meng Jiang rushed to his residence in the early hours of the morning to tell Bai Fugui that the matter had been done, and then the tired Bai Fugui returned to the bedroom, his head was on the pillow, and he soon fell asleep.
