"That's right, the so-called sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat, this principle is applicable everywhere, and the same is true for doing business. It is said that it is the top ten most powerful families in Huhai, but are the five of you doing business together? Do you have any connections? Is the foundation of the Zhang family strong? No, they are just a lonely boat on the sea at the moment, if you can't make your business bigger and replace them, do you think you have a future?"

Everyone was thoughtful, and at this time, the dishes began to be served one after another, and the dishes in such a banquet hall were naturally unspeakably expensive.

During the banquet, everyone didn't say much, and after three rounds of wine and five flavors, Professor Lin spoke.

"Although we can't move the business and property of the Hu family and the Tong family in Shanghai now, they have developed well overseas with our help over the years, and several of the Tong family's mines on the island of Australia have now begun to make profits. The Hu family's more than a dozen factories in Southeast Asia are also running very well. We have already obtained these businesses through technical means, who of you are interested. You can place your bids now."

It turned out that this was an alternative auction, and the bones of hundreds of people from the Hu family and the Tong family were not cold, and their belongings had already begun to be bought and sold here. When it comes to interests, everyone is no longer reserved, let alone a dead man's thing, even if they give them a knife and fork to eat a big living person, they probably won't blink their eyes, and the five began to bid one after another.

Among these five families, it is still the Zhou family who is rich, although they have not been rooted in Shanghai for as long as the Zhang family, but they are still much earlier than the Xiang family, and he won four of the Hu family's five mines on the island of Australia in one fell swoop. He was overjoyed and began to laugh.

His laughter echoed in the banquet hall, and as the next head of the Zhou family, it was obvious that his cultivation was very good. Just when the woman of the Wang family couldn't bear to say anything to stop him from laughing. The man surnamed Zhou suddenly hugged his head with a painful face.

Soon the laughter turned into a roar, in which he seemed to shout a word.

"It hurts! It hurts!"

He didn't say that it was okay, but as soon as he said it, everyone began to have a headache, and the six people in the banquet hall, including the waiter behind everyone, and the girl who played the piano, all rolled on the ground with their heads in pain.

After about a minute, the wailing stopped. A few waiters staggered to their feet, and they were horrified to find that several VIP members here were no longer churning, they were all moving, and their mouths, noses, eyes, and ears were bleeding.

The wails of fear and helplessness resounded throughout the ballroom, on the entire floor of the Huhai Huanyu Financial Center.

......

The speed of development in the past decade is very amazing, a large number of old houses in the urban area have been demolished, or rebuilt into new buildings, or converted into commercial buildings, or become part of municipal construction. This speed of renovation is believed to be unique in the history of mankind, and only those who are in it can truly appreciate what it means to change with each passing day.

There are exceptions to everything, and the dirtiest, messy, and crowded residential area in Shanghai is in the southern urban area. It is close to the Temple of Literature and there are a large number of old-fashioned buildings nearby. Different from the alleys in the Shikumen in the city, the houses here are not well planned, the houses are very crowded, some alleys are even small enough for one person to pass and slightly sideways, and the appearance of the buildings is also varied. After a hundred years of wind and rain, tinkering, these houses have given people the feeling of not just vicissitudes, but crumbling.

In the depths of an alley called Xiqiao's house, there is a small two-story building, and the landlord here is a lonely old lady, who rented out the house and rented an attic outside, and she lived on the poor rent difference. How does she know who she is lending her house to?

Walking into the house, it is even more difficult to describe it, the materials used to build these houses were very unsophisticated, and they are not maintained all year round, and the interior of the house has been unsightly over time.

There are eight people in the living room on the first floor, these people are men and women, they have different nationalities and races, but these people have one thing in common, that is, they are all outstanding, and they are wearing professional clothes that are not cheap at first glance, giving people the first feeling that these people must be the elite in the workplace.

These people gathered around a table of eight immortals, they

Everyone had a cup of blue-circled mermaid coffee in front of them, and it was clear that they were in a meeting.

"I don't understand why I chose to meet here. It's hard to put into words here." One Ah San complained

"If we get together, it's going to be a big deal, you know?" A white woman said

"I don't understand why we have to speak this Chinese language when we can communicate in English."

"We're here for a meeting, don't waste time on such minutia."

"It's not a minutiae, I don't like the Chinese language, I don't like the Chinese people, the Chinese language affects my emotions."

"He's jealous."

"I'm jealous of something."

"There are more than 1,500 languages in your country, and there are dozens of official languages, so I heard that you need to know at least a dozen foreign languages when you go shopping. Huaxia is older than you, and they only have one official language, so you are jealous of Huaxia and don't like Huaxia. Because you won't be able to do it in another thousand years, what the Chinese people did thousands of years ago."

"Will, do you owe ...... beating?"

The most difficult relationship in the world is definitely not the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, nor the relationship between superiors and subordinates, but colleagues with conflicts of interest and competitive relationships. In the career path, if you want to go further, you must kill the colleagues around you, the higher the position, the more difficult it is for the people around you, you see that they are not pleasing to the eye and others may look at you more unpleasantly.

"You've got enough."

Seeing that Willba and Will were about to make a move, a man with an Asian face couldn't bear to scold them, and the room fell silent for a moment.

"Well, people like you, if you do it here, you might tear down the whole house. Alright, let's get down to business."

The white woman continued the conversation as before

"The current situation is uncertain, and the original schedule of the operation has changed."

"Advance or delay."

"I don't know yet. But most likely, it will be delayed."

"So what do we do next?"

"That's why I made an appointment with you today, you continue to do your previous work, and continue to use the securities companies and those funds in your hands to copy the stock market in Shanghai."

Everyone was silent, and everyone fell into deep thought.

"What's the goal?" Ah Sanwei Shiba asked

"Now the Shanghai Composite Index is 4,000 points, the original target is 6,000 points, and now it is 10,000 points."

"Linda, this is impossible, this is a limit on the price limit in Huaxia, do you think we are still in the financial street of the United States?"

"If 10,000 points don't work, then 9,000 points, and if 9,000 points don't work, 8,000 points. This is the task given above, and it is the reason why you are here, and it is also the value of your existence. If you can't do that, you can bring it up now, and there are a lot of people behind you ready to take over your vacated position."

The man with the Asian face was clearly the highest ranking of these people, and under his ***, the room fell silent again.

"Of course, I won't let you do it in vain, the people above said that if you can do it, one percent of the profit will be your bonus. With this money, the next five generations will not be able to eat and drink, and the key is that you will not have to pay taxes."

The strategy of sticks and carrots obviously didn't work this time, and everyone remained silent.

"Professor Lu, you said it easily, no matter how much money you give, you also have to spend it. A lot of people have died in Huhai in the past two days, and some of them are still my customers."

"Actually, you're right, this isn't the financial street of the United States. But you can also take full advantage of that. In United States, if you want to play financial investment, you need to find a professional, a qualified broker. Huaxia is different, as long as you are an adult here, you can buy stocks, they are not professional, and they don't even understand anything, but Huaxia people are very happy to make money, and they are very kind, easy to trust people, and easy to deceive. You can make full use of public opinion media propaganda to get more people into the pit. The population base of Huaxia is too large at the moment

The number of people who have entered the stock market is less than 40 million, and if you mention this figure to 10% of the total population of China, I believe that task should be easily accomplished."

Professor Lu's words woke up the dreamer, and everyone's faces softened a lot.

Just when everyone was still discussing fiercely, that Ah Sanwei Shiba suddenly lost his eyes, his body softened, and his forehead slammed heavily on the table of the Eight Immortals.

Will was the first to react, he pushed Ah San next to him, and when he saw that he didn't reflect his hand, he put it on Ah San's carotid artery.

"Dead."

Before everyone could react, the other seven people in the room all fell down as soon as their bodies went limp.

The eight people present in an instant were bleeding from the mouth, nose, eyes, and ears.

All the people in this dilapidated house are dead now.

......

The He family is one of the top three big families in Shanghai, and on the surface, they are not well-known in the business world or in the rivers and lakes.

Their home is in the suburbs of Shanghai, which is also low-key, but when you walk into this seemingly unremarkable house, it will completely shatter your three views.

It looks like a desk randomly picked up by an antique furniture store, but it was once an object in the West Warm Pavilion of the Forbidden City. In the bedroom, a European-style bed and old-looking cabinets are actually furniture used by the last emperor of France. The picture of the Spring Palace hanging randomly in the corner is all Tang Yin's work. Everything on display here seems to be ordinary, but in fact, everything you see is unique, a treasure, a unique and priceless thing in the world.

The He family perfectly blends low-key and luxury.

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the He family has people in official positions, so their family must keep a low profile to some extent. But in the eyes of some knowledgeable people, the He family is both deserving and standing, and how many people who can visit their house can't understand the value of these things.

There are three people sitting on the sofa in the study on the second floor at the moment, the head of the He family is a pair of sisters and brothers, the elder sister is nearly fifty years old, and the younger brother looks relatively young, he should be in his early thirties.

Across from them sat a handsome foreigner with a good temperament.

The man was holding a business card and looking at it. Business cards are very simple. There is only one company name, one name and one email address.

"Lanhead International Affairs Consulting. Howard White. Mr. Howard, if I'm not mistaken, the Lanhead Corporation should be a think tank for the president of your country. I don't know what you're doing here with me."

"Mr. He, there is nothing special about my visit this time, just because I will expand my business in Shanghai in the coming days, and a family like your He family, I naturally want to come to visit."

This blonde foreigner speaks fluent Chinese.

"Visit, have you visited the Zhang family? Have you visited the Xiang family? Why did you come to my house first?"

"I will go, but in my mind, your He family is the one who holds the bull's ear in Huhai."

"Although this is very hypocritical, I like it, I don't want to go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything, and say what's wrong."

"Mr. He's refreshed......"

Howard took out two A4 paper lists from his document bag and handed them to the He siblings.

When they took it, they both frowned.
