The one-way permit, as the name suggests, is a one-way travel document, which is basically equivalent to a permit to move to Hong Kong in this era.

Before the establishment of the People's Republic of China, the Hong Kong Government did not restrict mainland residents from moving to Hong Kong, and ordinary people could travel between the two places at will. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, in order to control the population of Hong Kong, the British government began to implement border control, restricting residents from the mainland from entering the country, and began to register Hong Kong residents and issue identity cards, but the identity cards at that time were only a hand-filled piece of paper.

After several waves of repatriation, Hong Kong began to issue identity cards after the sixties. The policy at that time was that those who had been in Hong Kong for more than seven years and were able to support themselves would be granted permanent resident status, while those who had been in Hong Kong for less than seven years would have a green identity card, hence the name "green stitchers".

Because these new residents could greatly alleviate the labor-intensive demand of Hong Kong's industry, and because the British government wanted to implement a high land price policy for Hong Kong to make maximum profits, the British government in Hong Kong implemented a base-to-base policy in '74, with the intention that when running to the next base in a softball game, as long as they touched the base in time, they could pass the border, that is, in November 1974 and later, mainland arrivals to Hong Kong could reach the urban area of Hong Kong (south of Boundary Street) and obtain the status of Hong Kong residents. Smuggled refugees before this point in time have the same status as those who moved in after the war.

Eighty years later, the issue of Hong Kong's return to the motherland had already been put on the table, and under such circumstances, the British Government of Hong Kong also duly announced the abolition of the policy of arriving at the base, announcing that illegal immigrants from the mainland who came to Hong Kong on October 23 of that year could register for Hong Kong identity cards in the next three days, and that smugglers who arrived in Hong Kong on that day and after that day would be immediately repatriated to the mainland.

Since that era, except for foreign residents who have come to Hong Kong through normal channels, other illegal immigrants who have come to Hong Kong can no longer obtain Hong Kong resident status, and this situation continued until the handover, when Hong Kong's immigration policy was changed.

The one-way permit, also known as the permit for going to Hong Kong and Macao, is a document issued by the relevant departments of the Ministry of Public Security to Chinese mainland residents to settle in Hong Kong or Macao. Throughout the eighties, this thing had no price on the black market and was widely circulated and sold. Many sons of powerful people with status have made a windfall by buying and selling these things.

Zhong Shi also had the idea of this certificate, but what distressed him was that he was now a nobody in the mainland, and although he was rich, he didn't dare to show half of it, and naturally he couldn't reach the level of dealing with those "princes".

Now the opportunity is delivered to the door, and it is almost just about to doze off, someone brings a pillow. He would never miss such an opportunity.

In addition, in an organization like Affata, the top person in charge of Hong Kong is at the same level as the main department, and it is subordinate to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

In addition, there are special channels, and this kind of certificate, which is only issued 150 documents a day, cannot be obtained by others if they want to, but they can get a lot of them casually.

"But ......" Liao Chengde, under the lure of Zhong Shi, was obviously tempted. But he still has some concerns about the smuggling of trade.

"I said Lao Liao, what are you worried about! The most good things that a private trading company can buy are nothing more than some machine tools, spare parts, and consumables for certain weapons, although these things are also on the embargo list, but those medium and heavy industry enterprises will definitely not give up the export of these things. Moreover, when it comes to core secrets, such as high-tech machine tools, design drawings of airplanes, and other things, a trading company like yours will never get their hands on them. ”

"Both sides of the transaction of these things will keep it strictly confidential, otherwise once it is discovered, our side will lose the source of goods at most, and they will be sanctioned by the state and the United Nations."

Zhong Shi was right, even in later generations, when the United Nations frequently sanctioned a country that often "shot food into the sky", there were yacht companies that defied the world's condemnation and sold luxury yachts worth half a billion dollars to the dictator of that country. Of course, Zuihou was discovered, and the most serious consequence was that the company and the broker were fined a lot of money.

"At most, it's just a fine, what are you afraid of. Don't forget that behind you is the country. Besides, isn't there still me! ”

Zhong Shi's words finally dispelled all Liao Chengde's concerns, he gritted his teeth, slapped the desk suddenly, and said loudly: "Okay, it's decided!" If I have any losses, Zhong Sheng, you will be responsible to the end! ”

"Don't say anything else, there will be an opportunity to make money soon, but I don't know if you want to participate!" After just giving an illusory promise, Zhong Shi immediately threw out a sweet date.

He knew that in August, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange would launch Nikkei futures, and the Japanese market would surely fall sharply again. Although the Nikkei has risen slowly in recent months, having managed to regain the 30,000-point mark and continues to rise, Zhongshi knows that all this is an illusion, and soon, European and American conglomerates will make a comeback and hit the Japanese market again.

"Oh?" Liao Chengde was surprised and delighted, he didn't expect that the opportunity to make money would appear so soon. Now he is very skeptical that if he didn't agree to Zhong Shi's conditions, Zhong Shi would not have said this opportunity to make money.

"Don't worry, I don't mean to exchange." Zhong Shi was so shrewd, he could see Liao Chengde's doubts at a glance. "Have you always had a doubt in your heart, weishenme I will spare no effort to support you?"

Liao Chengde nodded, this question also bothered him for a long time. It stands to reason that the love for helping Zhong Shi back then would have been paid off long ago, and the money he earned with Zhong Shi in the past few years greatly exceeded the net worth he had accumulated over the decades.

"I'm a person, first, I'm more nostalgic, and then I'm selfish." Zhong Shi knocked on his desk and said meaningfully. "Do you remember what I said a few years ago?"

"What?" Liao Chengde scratched his head, a little confused. Zhong Shi has said a lot in the past few years, and he doesn't understand which sentence Zhong Shi is referring to.

"It's the acquisition of HSBC!"

Amazing!

Liao Chengde stood up suddenly, his arms trembling slightly, as if he couldn't believe what he had heard.

At the beginning, Zhong Shi's words, Liao Chengde regarded them as a joke, and it didn't take long to forget them. Now that Zhong Shi brought up the old things again, he remembered.

HSBC is not a small commercial bank, it is one of the largest commercial banks in Hong Kong, and it is also a note-issuing bank designated by the HKMA. Not only that, but its parent company is also a great conglomerate in Europe, and it is also a top presence among the consortiums in the whole of Europe.

Zhong Shi does not mean to really acquire HSBC, in fact, HSBC has considered this problem at the beginning of its listing, its shareholders are very widely distributed, and many acquisition restrictions have been set, which fundamentally eliminates the possibility of a large company.

Moreover, HSBC has very close financial contacts with many large consortia in Hong Kong, and the capital transactions of many large groups in overseas business are carried out through HSBC's global network, and the top dozens of Hong Kong's richest people have close relationships with HSBC, and several of them are also directors of the board of directors of HSBC.

In Hong Kong, there has been a saying that "it is not the government that controls Hong Kong, but the Jockey Club and HSBC." "At one time, HSBC had more than half of Hong Kong's deposits. As long as you have a relationship with it, it means that there is a steady stream of financial support.

Built in the 80s, the HSBC Tower stood at the height of Central's busibility, costing more than HK$5 billion, making it the most expensive building in the world at the time. Even after 20 years, the building is still very advanced in terms of design concepts. (The building can be split and moved away, and the unique file conveyor belt inside is truly breathtaking.) ）

If you want to buy such a bank, Zhong Shi's current net worth is tantamount to an idiot's dream, and it is estimated that his net worth will skyrocket ten times before it is possible.

"You don't really want to buy HSBC, do you?" Liao Chengde licked his dry lips, and his eyes were a little straight.

"Of course not, how could I buy HSBC!" Zhong Shi waved his hand, a little crying and laughing. "I don't mean to really buy HSBC, but to build a consortium like HSBC, a giant consortium."

"But you have so much money now, why isn't it enough?" Liao Chengde was even more dumbfounded, he never thought that Zhong Shi would have such ambitions.

"Of course it's not enough, what is this money, it's not even enough to give Li Jiacheng the qualifications to race between his teeth." Zhong Shi snorted and said nonchalantly.

Li Jiacheng he mentioned is the richest Chinese in later generations, a frequent visitor to Shijie's top ten richest people, and now he has not reached this height, but he is also the most powerful Hong Kong Chinese billionaire in recent years, and has ascended to the throne of the richest man in Hong Kong.

Liao Chengde's current net worth, compared with Li Jiacheng, is simply a drop in the bucket.

Zhong Shi mentioned him, which naturally showed that his target was this kind of person, and even the tone of his voice faintly revealed his ambition to surpass these people.

"What does that require me to do?"

Liao Chengde did not doubt the truth of what Zhong Shi said, in the past few years, he has seen Zhong Shi create such a large amount of wealth from scratch. He had no doubt that Zhongshi's achievements would be even higher in the future, and he didn't know what kind of apex it would be.

"You and your family will be my important helpers and business partners, and the business will be taken care of by you. Not only that, but everything on the head will be handled by Liao Xiaohua and Zhongyi, and I will be hidden behind the scenes. ”

Now that he has a relationship with the sky, Zhong Shi's worries are gone, and he naturally dares to boldly say his vision for the future.
