On this day, Gu Chen was reading Wen Jiàn in the office, and suddenly received the news of Wei Yixin's visit, and couldn't help but be a little strange, you must know that this is the first time Wei Yixin came to his company, why did he come without prior notice today, but he still asked Zhao Meixuan to bring people to his office, and as soon as he entered the door, Wei Yixin said apologetically: "Suddenly took the liberty to visit, and please don't be surprised by Mr. Gu." ()”

The two shook hands, and Gu Chen said with a smile: "What did Mr. Governor say, you are a distinguished guest, I welcome Mr. Governor here at any time, please take a seat." With that, Gu Chen gestured to Sha, and waited for the two of them to sit down: "I don't know what Mr. Governor has to drink?" ”

"Mr. Gu's idea is fine." Wilson smiled faintly. Seeing this, Gu Chen nodded at Zhao Meixuan, and the latter retreated willingly.

As the door of the office 'clicked' shut, Wilson didn't say anything to him, and walked directly into the topic: "Mr. Gu must be very curious about my sudden uninvited visit today, I received a call from Mr. Alex Ferguson, Speaker of the House of Commons, this morning, and now Europe and the United States are discussing sanctions against China, not only military and high-tech, but also some economic aspects." ”

"What Mr Ferguson means is that he wants Hong Kong businessmen to reduce their investment in China's Big 6, which will be part of the British sanctions against China. And Mr. Gu has a large number of investments in China's Big 6, including a steel company in Zhejiang-Jiangxi and real estate projects in Shanghai, which, of course, are in progress and cannot be stopped. Mr. Ferguson and I mean that we hope that Mr. Gu's Global Development Bank will stop lending to the Chinese government, because there is a risk that these loans will be used for military and political purposes. ”

Gu Chen was not surprised. As early as after the turmoil, he knew that the ** elements in Britain would definitely take the opportunity to jump out and ask him to do something, knowing that the Global Development Bank has so far provided $700 million in loans to the Chinese government. This is undoubtedly an astronomical figure, and it is unceremonious to say that he is now the largest creditor and financier of the Chinese government. He was silent for a moment, and a plausible smile appeared on his face: "Is this what Mr. Ferguson meant, or did Mrs. Thatcher mean?" ”

Hearing this, Wei Yixin couldn't help but be stunned, hesitated, and said, "It's what Mr. Ferguson meant." However, I believe that Xiang also agrees. ”

The smile on Gu Chen's face was even better, and he shrugged his shoulders and said, "Maybe." However, the loans provided by the Bank to the Chinese government are purely economic in nature, and the implementation is supervised by the bank's personnel, so I do not think it is possible that they will be used for military and political purposes. Mr. Governor should know that I am a businessman and that Global Bank is a commercial bank. We are not involved in politics. Neither the British government nor the Governor's Office has the power to interfere. After a pause, seeing that Wei Yixin's face was a little unsightly, he changed his words: "Of course, since Mr. Governor has already proposed it, out of friendship, I will appropriately reduce the loan to the Chinese government in the future." ”

If that's what Thatcher meant, he really had to think about it, after all, he still lives on British soil, and he has to be cautious. But if it's just Ferguson's meaning, that's a different story. Margaret Thatcher came from the British Conservative Party. Ferguson, on the other hand, is the leader of Britain's largest opposition party, the Labour Party, and the two are from two of Britain's largest parties. Political views have always been at odds.

In this case, he naturally followed in the footsteps of Margaret Thatcher, and more importantly, Ferguson is a staunch person in British politics, and he has repeatedly obstructed the Sino-British negotiations on the return of Hong Kong, so it is naturally impossible for Gu Chen, such a person, to get too close to him.

Wei Yixin didn't have much confidence in coming today, it was already good to get Gu Chen's promise, and he got up and left after sitting for a while. Gu Chen sat on the sand and thought about things, while swallowing the clouds and spitting smoke with a cigar, until a cigar was smoked, he walked to the office, picked up the landline and asked the secretariat to answer Adrian's phone, and the phone was connected after a while: "Hey, Adrien, two days ago you told me that the bank was negotiating a $500 million road and bridge fund loan with the Chinese government, how is the negotiation going now?" ”

"It has entered the final stage, mainly because there are still some problems in the way of repaying the funds, and I believe that it can all be done in these two days."

Gu Chen frowned slightly and groaned for a while, and finally said: "Let's end the negotiations, just now Wilson came to me, the British side has some views on our loan to the Chinese government, and I have to give them some face at this cusp of the storm, you apologize to the Chinese personnel on my behalf, and tell them that this is only temporary, and I still have great confidence in the Chinese market and the Chinese government." ”

As Gu Chen said -- I have to give them some face, the Labour Party is one of the largest parties in Britain, and although the Conservative Party is now in power, it still has a huge influence in British politics, and some of Margaret Thatcher's governance measures often have to take into account the views of the Labour Party.

And if he remembers correctly, Britain will enter a situation where the Labour Party will be in power for a long time from the end of the 90s, not to mention that he has invested so much in the UK, but considering the remaining influence of Britain in Hong Kong after Hong Kong's return to the motherland, he should maintain good relations with the Labour Party.

Therefore, it is necessary to temporarily weaken direct cooperation with the Chinese government, and gradually resume cooperation between the two sides after the tide of public opinion has passed......

After ending the call with Adrian, Gu Chen continued to review the unfinished texts just now, and it was already an hour before all the texts were processed. At this time, there were two knocks on the door, and then Guo Yunxi pushed open the door and walked in, Guo Yunxi put a copy of the document in front of Gu Chen: "Boss, this is the construction plan of the Malaysian Jaguar company that the British side just faxed." ”

After painstaking negotiations, the Malaysian side finally made a concession, and Jaguar (Malaysia) Motor Sdn Bhd had only a 2% stake in the Malaysian government, and only reserved the right to supervise the company's operations. Other than that. Jaguar (Malaysia) Automotive Sdn Bhd has also received numerous policy support from Malaysia, such as four-year tax exemption and export tax rebates. The Malaysian government has benefited Jaguar Motors Group with an investment of up to US$300 million and a loan of US$700 million from Global Bank.

"Well, just put it down." Gu Chen responded lightly, and when he saw that Guo Yunxi was going out, he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said, "After you go out, call Zeng Nanxing." ”

Guo Yunxi went out, and after a few minutes, Zeng Nanxing, who was dressed in a straight suit, knocked on the door of the office: "Mr. Gu, do you have something to look for me?" ”

Gu Chen smiled slightly: "Sit down first." After Zeng Nanxing sat down, Gu Chen continued: "Nanxing, you have been in Tang Dynasty Holdings for more than a year. ”

Zeng Nanxing wondered why Gu Chen suddenly said this, but he still said truthfully: "It's been a whole year and a half." ”

"Yes, there has been a year and a half, a year and a half is not long, it is not short, in this year and a half you have been conscientiously performing your duties, I have all seen the attitude and ability to do things, without you, it is difficult for the company to have the current situation."

Zeng Nanxing said with a little trepidation: "Mr. Gu said this, it really tormented me, the company can have the current situation is completely Mr. Gu's leadership, as for what I do is just my responsibility, all I should do, I don't deserve such praise from you." ”

At the same time, the doubts in my heart are deeper, thinking about whether the company has had any major events recently, no; I thought about whether there was anything wrong with my work, but it didn't seem to be; Since there was none, why did Gu Chen suddenly say these words to him?

Soon, Gu Chen answered his doubts: "Duty is duty, ability still needs to be affirmed, and the most important thing is to be down-to-earth, not so many crooked thoughts." Originally, it would be most suitable for you to continue to serve as the company's chief operating officer, but I really can't find a more suitable person than you. ”

"Now the workshop and other facilities of the first phase of the Galaxy Aerospace project have been completed, and the company has begun to operate, but the position of president is still vacant, Guo Zhengyi's ability is good, and he can rest assured, but after all, he is too young and not stable enough to be the president for the time being."

"And I have great expectations for Galaxy Aerospace, in the future it will not only be an aviation equipment OEM, my goal is to make him the Boeing and Lockheed of Hong Kong? Martin, the road to achieving this goal will certainly be long and winding, but it is by no means impossible, so I hope that someone with outstanding ability, calm character, and loyalty will be at the helm of Galaxy Aerospace. ”

Speaking of this, Gu Chen's meaning is already obvious, if Zeng Nanxing still doesn't understand that he is really a pig's head, as the operating officer of Tang Dynasty Holdings, he naturally knows that Gu Chen attaches great importance to Galaxy Aerospace, and even faintly perceives Gu Chen's lofty goals.

Now Gu Chen plans to hand over Galaxy Aerospace to him, this trust alone is enough to move him, he immediately got up and said solemnly: "Thank you Mr. Gu for your trust, if you really hand over Galaxy Aerospace to me, I promise that I will never let you down." ”

"Okay." Gu Chen nodded with a smile: "In the past few days, you will go through the handover procedures, and you will officially take up your new position at Galaxy Aerospace next Monday." Before that, I would like to tell you that the core of Galaxy Aerospace is the research center, and there are many confidential matters in it, and you will know after you officially take office, and my requirement is that you must fully support the work of the research center. The other is to do a good job in the security of the research center, and no one is allowed to enter the research center without approval from the company's management personnel except you, which is a dead order.
