Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 410: British wins and losses

"Wipe your face..." Xie Ning reminded him with a voice.

Tang Huan looked in the mirror and wiped a few times with a towel, "Is it all right now?"

"Okay." After taking a closer look, Xie Ning nodded confirmingly.

"Then I will go to the meeting first, and you will take care of yourself." After Tang Huan walked to the living room, he ate a few more cookies to replenish the lost energy, and then shouted: "Remember to bring some cookies tomorrow. , Put less sugar."

"Got it." Xie Ning agreed, and when she heard the door closing, she let out a long breath and began to stare at the wall in a daze.

...

"It's going to be late for the meeting." Yang Qinglin, who was driving the door for Tang Huan, reminded him, and then muttered in a low voice, "However, it looks particularly radiant."

"I'm going to be late, there is so much nonsense." Tang Huan, who was refreshed, smiled and waved to urge.

By the time they arrived at the Jardine Shareholders' Meeting, it had been 10 minutes, but no one dared to say anything in person. Tang Huan, who was full of red, and Gu Pan was magnificent. Everyone took it for granted that he was using this belated method. Declare your authority as the master.

Scanning the attendees, Tang Huan unexpectedly saw that the chairman of HSBC, Shen Bi, had also come to join in the fun, frowning involuntarily.

"During the acquisition process, part of the shares of Jardines Land held by HSBC fell into the hands of HSBC, and Shen Bi used this excuse to participate in the meeting." Zhou Mi explained in a low voice.

"He's here, doesn't he increase the variables of the meeting?" Tang Huan asked musingly.

"Then how to drive away Shen Bi, his identity is extraordinary." Zhou Mi looked embarrassed.

"It is because of the extraordinary that I can't allow him to stir the wind and the rain here." Tang Huan snorted, waved to Huo Jianning, and gave a low voice.

He listened to a clear and thorough attention, couldn’t help but glanced at Shen Bi who was sitting in a conspicuous place, and said to his heart, “You don’t stay in your own one-acre one-third of the land to enjoy the blessing, you have to run here to chaos. It’s really a shame to join in the excitement of Datang."

quickly. Huo Jianning walked up to Shen Bi and said respectfully: "Mr. Shen Bi, Mr. Tang thinks that you do not meet the requirements for attending the meeting. He asks you to take a step higher. Go to the reception room and rest."

Before Shen Bi could speak, Simon Keswick sneered and took the conversation, "What a joke, don't you know that HSBC also holds shares in Yihe?"

"That transaction is suspected of being operated in a dark box, Mr. Tang will not approve it." Huo Jianning smiled and opened the folder in his hand. It showed, "This is Citibank's promissory note, which is used to repay the debt that Jardines previously owed to HSBC. Please also Mr. Shen Bi to talk to me about the details of the return of the shares."

Seeing this scene, Simon Keswick suddenly changed his color, his eyes turned to Tang Huan, and he stared at him for a long time.

"Why, do you have something to tell me?" Tang Huan asked lightly.

"Don't push people too much?" Simon Keswick threatened sternly.

"Why don't you say that you are bucking the trend and do not know the current affairs?" Tang Huan snorted, "The reason you jumped up and down. It was only for the benefit of the Keswick family, not for the benefit of the Yihe. I am at the helm of Yihe. In the future, we will surely get rid of the current predicament and usher in a new opportunity."

Simon Keswick was forced by Tang Huan's aura, unable to carry out even the slightest effective counterattack in words, so he had to look at Shen Bi, hoping that the other party would rely on the power of HSBC to stay here and support himself.

Born in 1927 in Sandberg, Shen Bi, graduated from St. Edward's College, Oxford University. He joined the army as early as 1945 and volunteered to join the Indian Army. When India became independent, he turned to join the cavalry regiment.

By 1949, Shen Bi was demobilized to Xiangjiang. After joining HSBC, he worked for several years in HSBC branches in Singapore and Japan. He was promoted to general manager in 1971 and appointed as chairman of HSBC in 1977.

It can be said that Shen Bi's skill is very clever, as can be seen from his close relationship with the Chinese artificial business people. He successively recruited several Chinese members such as Li Ka-shing and Deng Lianru into the HSBC Board of Directors.

Regarding the future of Xiangjiang, Shen Bi bluntly stated that “the United Kingdom must retain the power of governance, and the surrender of sovereignty is purely a cosmetic display.” His idea of ​​"sovereignty for governance" is quite marketable in Xiangjiang.

It can be said that Shen Bi, who belongs to the diehard category, does not want Tang Huan, a billionaire with strong financial resources and a complicated mainland background, to take root in Xiangjiang, but the reality has slapped his face again and again.

Shen Bi's expression changed for a long time, and finally he had no choice but to nod his head, got up and walked out with Huo Jianning.

Seeing that the big Buddha of HSBC had admitted, Simon Keswick leaned back in his chair sullenly.

"Count you acquaintances." Tang Huan snorted to himself and began to speak as the chairman of the board of directors Qin He.

...

"As for the title of the'Debt King' of Jardines, I think everyone has heard of it, so I won't repeat it. I just want to make one point. Although I acquired Jardines Land and Land, it is not like what some people imagined. In that way, I have taken a huge advantage, and I have to do my duty to solve these asset structure problems."

"Since the 1970s, Jardines has invested in large-scale overseas in successive years. By 1977, the proportion of Jardines' overseas assets had exceeded 60%, while the proportion of Xiangjiang had fallen to less than that. 40%. So far, Jardine Matheson has developed into a multinational company in the Asia Pacific region."

"I heard that some senior executives were complacent about this, thinking that the name of Jardine was little known before 1975 when they left the Far East, but now everyone in the world is very familiar with Jardine, especially in the United States. It’s an amazing improvement."

"It is not difficult to find that everyone is very thirsty for the U.S. market. I already have business performance in the U.S. I think you may have heard of some. When the two strengths are combined, I don’t know if you are right. How do you see its prospects?"

"In the past 100 years, Jardines has gained countless wealth in mainland China. I think everyone has been obsessed with this market. Now there is an opportunity to re-enter this market. I may be able to lead everyone to seize it."

...

In his speech, Tang Huan clearly listed the advantages that Jardines wanted but did not possess, which made many British shareholders who were otherwise expressionless, startled.

The atmosphere of the next meeting unconsciously began to surround Tang Huan. It became warm, which made Simon Keswick uncomfortable as if sitting on pins and needles.

...

On the other side of the earth, the island of the South Atlantic Ocean is thousands of miles away from the Xiangjiang River.

As early as the evening of May 21, British troops from the 3rd Marine Brigade and the 2nd and 3rd Battalions of the Parachute Regiment. A total of about 4,000 people took the landing vessel and landed on the beach in the waters of St. Carlos on the north shore of East Malaysia Island, and successfully established a safe beachhead the next day.

Brigadier General Thomson in charge of the command. The plan was to capture Darwin and Gus Green first, and then Port Stanley, the capital of Falkland Islands.

The operation lasted from the morning of May 27th to May 28th. About 500 people from the 2nd British Paratrooper Battalion approached and attacked Darwin and Gus Green, which were defended by the 12th Argentine Infantry Regiment.

The fierce fighting lasted from night to the next day. In the end, the British army lost 17 soldiers, Argentina lost 55 soldiers, and another 1,050 were captured.

Because of the advance notice of this battle via the news network, Lieutenant Colonel Jones, the commander of the 2nd Paratrooper Battalion, was killed in action.

After regaining Gus Green, which was blocking the British army and San-San Carlos, the British army could move towards the bridgehead of San Carlos.

Beginning on May 27th, the 45th Commando and the 3rd Paratrooper Battalion, on foot, crossed East Malaysia Island and rushed to the tealinlet near the coast-the settlement Blue Green Bay.

In response to the landing operations of British troops. The Argentine Air Force confronted it with night bombing by Canberra bombers.

Due to the lack of air defense capabilities, Britain was somewhat passive. Ships carrying important materials including helicopters, runway construction equipment and tents were sunk successively, causing serious losses.

However, due to the low-altitude bombs, many bombs did not have enough time to activate the fuze, and the Argentine Air Force’s results did not expand further.

Since then, Britain and Argentina have fought fierce battles with special forces and helicopters as the protagonists in the surrounding area of ​​Mount Kent.

Although Argentina lost in the end, this model allowed Han Anyuan, who insisted on staying on the Falkland Islands, as well as Lu Xiaohu and Zheng Gang who were responsible for protecting him. It was shocked to see.

"When I was fighting with Vietnam, I didn't have such technical content." Lu Xiaohu was very emotional.

Zheng Gang nodded in agreement, while Han Anyuan smiled while writing notes: "Now you won't regret staying with me on the island."

Lu Xiaohu scratched his head. "It's really enjoyable to watch, but it's too dangerous to always get together on the front line of the battle. I don't know how to explain it to Datang then."

"Don't tell me, at the same time we will be more careful, just don't do it." Han Anyuan patted the notebook. "After I bring back the first-hand information of these battlefields, even if I don't explain the significance of the research, you should be able to estimate it."

Lu Xiaohu sighed noncommitantly, "I will enter the final stage of this war right away-the battle for Port Stanley is going to be fiercer. You have to be mentally prepared, uncle."

Before Han Anyuan answered, Zheng Gang patted his chest boldly, "Uncle, don't worry, in order to help you fulfill your wish, even if I give my life, I will keep your safety."

Han Anyuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, "You two sing and sing together, can I not listen."

...

After several days of reconnaissance and rest, on the night of June 11, the British began to launch a brigade-level night attack on the highlands around Port Stanley. The Royal Third Marine Brigade simultaneously launched an offensive on Mount Harriet, the two sisters, and Langdon Mountain.

When the British Royal Navy Glamorgan was supporting the British Marines to attack the Afghan position, it was hit by the Afghan flying fish missile, killing 13 crew members on the spot.

Seeing that the surface ship was so vulnerable in front of the anti-ship missiles, Han Anyuan, Lu Xiaohu, and Zheng Gang looked at each other and took a breath of air. This kind of actual combat skills in modern warfare is really an eye-opener.

After a night of fighting, the British army eliminated all scheduled targets in accordance with the combat plan.

On the night of June 13, the British took advantage of the victory and launched a second wave of attacks. The second battalion of the paratroopers captured Radio Mountain, and the second battalion of the Scottish Guards captured the Bad House Mountain.

When the British army broke through the last natural defense line of Argentina, the Argentine army guarding Port Stanley finally realized that their own failure was inevitable, so the atmosphere of hesitation and frustration quickly spread, in sharp contrast to it. , The British who live on Falkland Islands cheered, it can be said that the joy is beyond words.

Seeing this, a platoon leader of the Ajun ordered his subordinates, ifakelper, to kill them if the local residents resisted.

Fortunately, this war did not make people completely irrational and mad, and their subordinates did not act like this.

On June 14, Argentine Garrison Commander Major General Menendez surrendered to Major General Moore of the Royal Marines. 9,800 Argentine soldiers became prisoners of war. In addition, there were 4,167 Argentine soldiers. Deported to Argentina by the Gemini ocean liner.

The main representatives of both sides attending the signing ceremony of the surrender include: Argentine Colonel Hussey, Major General Menendez, Lieutenant Colonel Reif Air Force, and an Argentine government legal adviser; Major General Moore, two Army Colonels, and one A Marine Corps colonel, an Army lieutenant colonel, etc.

In addition, war reporters, including Han Anyuan, Lu Xiaohu, Zheng Gang, etc., have also witnessed this historical moment.

The contents of the drop book are:

I, Major General Menendez, commander of the Argentine Army, Navy and Air Force, surrendered unconditionally to Major General J.J. Moore, the representative of the Queen’s Government.

Under the provisions of this agreement, all Azerbaijani troops will go to the location designated by Major General Moore to hand over their guns, ammunition, various weapons, and various war tools designated by General Moore or other British officials~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ Once this agreement enters into force, in accordance with the provisions of the Geneva Convention signed in 1949, all Albanian troops will receive honorable treatment and obey all relevant instructions for movement and centralized accommodation.

This agreement came into effect at 23:59 on June 14th, standard time-20:59 local time, and applies to the Argentine garrison deployed around Port Stanley, East/Sima Island and other outer islands.

The news of the British army's complete victory on the Falkland Islands came back to the United Kingdom, and the whole country was joyous, and the morale of the people rising all the way seemed to make the various social problems caused by the economic depression less acute.

However, there is a group-the British Far East Commercial Interest Group, but it can't be happy with it, because on June 16, the Jardines General Meeting of Shareholders ended, not only the shares previously held by Jardines Land were transferred to Qinhe's name and were split up. Attendance and technology and infrastructure, even let the outside world unexpectedly through the capital increase plan.

Due to Simon Keswick’s unwelcome treatment, the Keswick family’s shares in Jardine were diluted, making him want to cry. (To be continued.) If you think Rebirth Technology Madman is very beautiful! Then please put the website of this site! Recommend to your friends to watch together!
