Shen Chong is very interested in China Resources because in his memory, apart from this company, none of the other Hong Kong consortiums, whether it is Li Ka-shing's Cheung Kong or Pao Yugang's Wharf, can rampage in the mainland and gain a firm foothold. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Li Ka-shing went to Beijing in October 1979 to participate in the relevant activities of the 30th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and was one of the first three Hong Kong directors of the CITIC Group; all kinds of investments in the mainland during the RU era were not small, and the hat of a patriotic capitalist was worn steadily, but he invested more than 3 billion yuan in 199l to build the Hong Kong Satellite TV Chinese Channel, and after it was launched, it existed in the mainland for less than two years before it was kicked out.

Jin Yong was repeatedly received by the mainland's high-level in the ru years, and was a member of the Hong Kong Basic Law Drafting Committee, "Ming Pao" was also recognized as a mainland newspaper at that time, 19 years Deng Gong toured the south, advocating to adhere to reform, deepening reform, "media joint venture can try", in 1993, "Ming Pao" group invested nearly 100 million, and Guangdong Provincial Council for the Promotion of Trade joint venture, established the mainland's first full-color daily newspaper "Modern People's Daily", two months later, the State Press and Publication Administration a paper document, not allowed to publish, print, news units and foreign cooperation, The Guangdong Provincial Party Committee, the Provincial Political Consultative Conference, and the Provincial People's Congress operated in many ways, and even the Provincial Party Secretary personally interceded, but they were all useless and were soon euthanized.

Therefore, if you want to build a media group in China, you must have an iron hat of "national brand", otherwise you will not be able to play for long, and China Resources, which is about to be transformed from a government agency into a joint-stock group, is the best opportunity for Shen Chong, a "Hong Kong person", to take advantage of the backdoor, and he must seize it.

But the situation of China Resources is very complicated, there are dozens of departments operating in different industries, leather, breeding, real estate, finance, hardware, transportation, etc., there is a mess of everything, and the management is also a mixture of dragons and snakes, Zhang Guangdou, in addition to Zhang Yongcheng and Zhang Zheng, there are more than a dozen people who also have the title of deputy manager, who is standing behind whom, who is who's henchman, Shen Chong is completely unclear, if he is not careful, he will hit the thunder and cause trouble that should not be provoked.

On one side is the tempting prospect, and on the other side is the dangerous reef, which is why Shen Chong is restless and thinks about it repeatedly.

"Manager Zhang, please relax and recuperate, now that science is developed, this minor illness will be cured soon."

"Xiao Shen has a heart, and he came to see me, an old man." Zhang Guangdou was half-lying on the hospital bed, and said with a wry smile: "My family knows about my own family affairs, I am sixty or seventy people, how good can I be." Fortunately, I didn't have a stroke this time, and my hands and feet could still move, so I wouldn't lie on the bed and let people feed, mix and wait for death. ”

"What did Manager Zhang say?" Shen Chong smiled and persuaded and said: "Jiren has his own natural appearance, I asked the doctor, you have no other problems, as long as you don't overwork, pay attention to rest, and live to 100 years old, there is no problem at all." ”

"Xiao Shen, people like you and me, busy or not, can't make your own decisions" Zhang Guangdou shook his head lightly, sighed, and said: "But it's okay now, after a busy life, it's time to retire and enjoy a few days of leisure." ”

A sentence of being busy or not, he can't make his own decisions, so that Shen Chong has relatives, no, after he came out of the hospital, he went to the top of the mountain Pule Road HSBC Taipan Mansion to see Shen Bi.

The mansion with an area of 44uu square meters is really extraordinary, Shen Bi's study is like a small library full of European classical style, Shen Chong followed the housekeeper, and when he walked in, he was wearing glasses, standing on a small ladder that could slide on the wall, flipping through a thick tome.

"Alan, welcome." Shen Bi held the ladder with his left hand, raised his right arm exaggeratedly, made a gesture, and said, "Please wait a moment, I'm looking for a document." ”

"Please." Shen Chong raised his head, looked around, and after watching for a while, he said: "It's a very grand study, here, people become very small, I like it here." ”

"You can build one if you like." Shen Bi inserted the book in his hand into the shelf, changed another one, and said, "I know a very good architect, I can introduce it to you." ”

"We'll talk about it later." Shen Chong walked slowly, while slicing his fingers across the bookshelves in the first row, and said: "Books are for reading, not for decoration, I haven't calmed down to read for a long time, and when I have time, I will build a good study room." ”

"Alan, it's good that you have a humble heart in the face of knowledge." Shen Bi flipped through the pages, and after a while, he shouted loudly: "Ha finally let me find it." ”

"If you don't mind, can I ask what you're looking for?"

"Nothing, just to examine a little controversy about history." Shen Bi took the book, walked down the ladder, pointed to the wide and heavy desk in the middle of the house, and said, "Allen, please sit over there." ”

After Shen Chong sat down, he touched the desk casually, felt that the material was quite delicate, and asked, "Is this rosewood?" ”

"Perhaps, my predecessor left me behind, and I don't know much about wood." Shen Bi shook his head, he put down the book, and said, "Allen, I regret to inform you that the board of directors did not approve the aircraft leasing transaction.

"Oh?" Shen Chong raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there a reason?" ”

"There are people on the board who are worried about changes in China's domestic policy and are reluctant to take risks." Shen Bi said helplessly: "Allen, I have worked very hard to promote this business, but HSBC is not my HSBC alone, so I'm sorry." ”

The aircraft leasing business has stable money and huge profits, but it is not fast enough, the contract time is as high as twenty or thirty years, and it is very troublesome to take care of, and this business has almost no connection with the media, Shen Chong is too lazy to bother to toss, so he thinks about transferring it to HSBC and making personal favors.

I didn't expect it to be kindly delivered to the door, but people didn't want to ......

"NH1, you don't have to apologize." Shen Chong waved his hand indifferently and said, "Since HSBC doesn't want it, I'll transfer it to someone else." ”

"Alan, actually, I want to ask you for a favor." Shen Bi looked at him, considered his words, and said, "Can you keep this business in your hands first, wait for a while, and then resell it to HSBC?" I can assure you that there will be no problems next time and the price can be increased again. ”

Shen Chong was very sensitive, and immediately realized that there was something greasy in it, and asked, "What?" In HSBC's current board of directors, some people look at me unpleasantly? ”

"No, no, no, you're mistaken." Shen Bi said with a very friendly professional smile on his face: "Allen, you are the most distinguished customer of HSBC, and every director respects you very much, but you know, now Jardine Matheson and Sir Pao Yugang are competing for Wharf, Jardine Matheson is an old customer of HSBC, Niu Bijian is also an important person on the board of directors, and you have a large number of Wharf shares in your hands, and now you are too sensitive to talk about the aircraft leasing business." ”

"So, it's Jardine Matheson who opposes this business." Shen Chong touched his chin, pondered for a while, and suddenly asked: "If the governor of Hong Kong doesn't go to my TV station to cheer up, is it also Jardine Matheson that is making trouble?" ”
