The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang

There are four important stock indexes in the world stock market. Through these four stock indexes, the ups and downs of the world stock market can be seen at a glance.

They are the Dow Jones Industrial Index in New York, the Financial Times Index in London, the Nikkei Index in Tokyo, and the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index.

The Hong Kong Hang Seng Index was actually invented by He Shanheng.

In fact, it is not an exaggeration to call He Shanheng the most outstanding Chinese banker in Hong Kong this century.

There are also many people who have received help from He Shanheng in Hong Kong and Macau.

As I said before, there are no more than two ways for Heung Kong Properties to raise funds for its own development. The first is to go public to raise funds, and the second is to get the support of the bank!

The fundamental reason why Zheng Yutong's New World has been able to develop smoothly after its listing is actually because of the strong support of the Hang Seng Bank chaired by He Shanheng.

Otherwise, He Shanheng would not be the chairman of the New World Board of Directors.

In addition, the development of Ho Hongshen is actually inseparable from the support of He Shanheng. In the early years, Ho Hongshen was driven back from Haojiang in disgrace. In the early stage of Xiangjiang's development, He Shanheng contributed a lot to its development!

So at the resignation ceremony of He Shanheng today, He Hongshen also came to the scene.

In this evening party, He Shanheng is naturally the protagonist. Even when Chu Huan came, he gave He Shanheng his gift immediately, and affirmed He Shanheng's achievements in the new world.

Obviously, He Shanheng was also very happy with Chu Huan's arrival, after all, Chu Huan basically did not appear on such occasions in recent years.

"Chu Dong can come today, I am extremely honored!"

He Shanheng laughed and preached to Chu Huan.

Chu Huan said with a smile: "He Weng is too polite. As the Taishan Beidou of the Xiangjiang business community, you are naturally coming today as a junior."

He Shanheng laughed with some rosy cheeks and said, "Don't dare to be that. Director Chu can be said to have created a miracle in Xiangjiang's commercial history in these years. Now Xiangjiang is dominated by young people like Mr. Chu and you. We can't do it!"

While talking, He Shanheng took Li Guowei and Chu Huan beside him and said with a smile: "Mr. Chu, although I have stepped down as the chairman of New World, I am still the chairman of the board of directors of Hang Seng. I hope that Hang Seng can cooperate with Mr. Chu's Jiaku It's a lot of cooperation!"

In fact, next year, He Shanheng will resign from the position of Chairman of the Board of Directors of Hang Seng Bank, and Li Guowei next to him will take over any Shanheng!

In fact, Li Guowei was 64 years old at this time, and the evaluation of Li Guowei by later generations was not as good as that of He Shanheng.

At that time, Hang Seng Bank encountered a wave of liquidation, and Ho Sin-hang had nowhere to turn for help. In the end, he could only ask HSBC for help.

Although HSBC agreed to help Hang Seng get out of the predicament, this is conditional, and the condition is naturally that HSBC will take a stake in Hang Seng.

At that time, there were rumors in the world that He Shanheng meant to sell 35% of Hang Seng Bank's shares and then get help from HSBC. As a result, when Li Guowei negotiated with HSBC, he chose to sell 51% of Hang Seng's shares.

But later Li Guowei replied very frankly: "This is not my opinion. Such an important matter is decided by the board of directors, but I am indeed the only person sent by Hang Seng to negotiate with Sandas. Remember At that time, HSBC sent staff to study our accounts, and in just over 10 hours, including the negotiation time, the huge transaction in the banking history was completed.”

I am afraid that only He Shanheng, Li Guowei and others know the real situation, but from the importance Li Guowei received in Hang Seng Bank, and now He Shanheng is willing to hand over the future development of Hang Seng Bank to Li Guowei It can be seen that Li Guowei's rhetoric is more credible.

In addition, this Li Guowei is not an unknown person, he is a descendant of the Li family in the first generation of Xiangjiang's four major families, and Li Xishen's cousin.

"Director Chu, please take care of me in the future!"

Although Li Guowei's grade is enough to be Chu Huan's grandfather, Li Guowei still appears very humble in front of Chu Huan at this time.

Although there are rumors about the cash flow problems of the first warehouse, such rumors are actually useless to Hang Seng.

Just one thing, the scale of Jiaku Bank, a subsidiary of Jiaku, has surpassed Hang Seng at this time, and has become the No. 1 among the Chinese banks in Xiangjiang.

Don't call it contempt, this is an existence that needs to be looked up to!

It is indeed necessary to take care of it. If He Shanheng and Li Guowei knew that Chu Huan's goal this time was to acquire Hang Seng Bank, their mood would be more complicated at this time!

This is actually the reason why Chu Huan came to this banquet this time. Chu Huan wanted to take this opportunity to have a better understanding of the internal situation of Hang Seng Bank.

After chatting for a few words, Chu Huan left. Although the protagonist tonight is He Shanheng, everyone's attention was paid to Chu Huan's arrival.

Even though there are rumors about cash flow problems in Jiaku, Chu Huan is still the number one person in Xiangjiang at this time, so everyone at the scene gathered around Chu Huan after greeting He Shanheng.

Chu Huan could only chat with these people with a smile.

After a while, He Hongshen and Zheng Yutong came to Chu Huan's side, and the people who had greeted Chu Huan before also left after seeing this.

Both of them had smiles on their faces at this moment.

Chu Huan can understand the feelings of the two, because after Chu Huan rejected Ye Han, Ye Han had no choice but to sell his shares in Aoyu to Zheng Yutong for 300 million Hong Kong dollars!

It can be said that this transaction made Zheng Yutong a winner!

And He Hongshen and Zheng Yutong are old friends Guigui. Now that Zheng Yutong has obtained the shares of Aoyu, it can be said that He Hongshen will finally have no stumbling block in Aoyu from now on!

"You two's expression at this time will make me feel regretful!" Chu Huan said with a smile on his face after seeing the two of them.

Zheng Yutong laughed and said, "Ah Huan, don't be joking. If you hadn't rejected Ye Han's sale this time, I wouldn't have been able to get the shares of Aoyu this time!"

He Hongshen preached with some hypocrisy: "Actually, if Director Chu can become a shareholder of our Macau Entertainment, our Macau Entertainment still welcomes it very much!"

Chu Huan just smiled, and said: "We Jiaku really don't have any ideas about the gambling industry, but you two, the gambling industry is a mixed bag, and it is not so easy to make money in this industry."

He Hongshen and Zheng Yutong nodded with deep understanding of this, and Zheng Yutong even sighed: "Yes, if you hadn't been reminded by A Huan about the investment in Iran, Hongshen and I would probably have died." Trouble!"

He Hongshen glanced at Zheng Yutong at this time, Zheng Yutong hesitated after receiving He Hongshen's eyes.

Seeing the actions of the two, Chu Huan knew that the two of them must have other things to do, but Chu Huan didn't bother to guess what they were going to do, let alone ask, after all, it was their own business.

"If you two have nothing to do, I still have a few friends over there, so I will leave first!"

Chu Huan said with a smile.

"Wait a minute, wait a moment!" Zheng Yutong finally stopped Chu Huan, and said with a smile: "A Huan, don't worry, actually we came to you this time because there is one more thing we want to discuss with you! "

Chu Huan asked with a smile: "I don't know what you two think?"

Zheng Yutong said: "We know that you, A Huan, have a very good relationship with Bob Hawke of Australia's shadow cabinet. Hongshen and I have an idea to set up a casino in Australia, so I want to ask you, A Huan, to help us talk about it!"

Bob Hawke, currently Australia's Shadow Employment and Industrial Relations Minister, will become Australia's prime minister next year.

Australia is not forbidden to gamble. Although compared to Monte Carlo in Monaco, Atlantic City and Las Vegas in North America are larger in scale, they are blooming everywhere.

In Chu Huan's impression, it was not until 1989 that He Hongshen and Zheng Yutong wanted to operate the gaming industry in Australia.

At that time, Sydney, Australia announced that it would launch the casino business for foreign consortiums to bid for. At that time, Ho Hongsun and Zheng Yutong flew to Sydney to participate in the bidding on behalf of Macau Entertainment.

The Sydney government was dissatisfied with the bids submitted by various consortiums, so it announced a second bid.

At the end of the year, Macau Entertainment once again participated in the second bidding.

The Sydney government announced that the winning consortium is only responsible for management, not including the construction of the site.

The construction of the venue can expand the scale of the casino. This policy of the government is obviously not good for the winning consortium, and it is not attractive enough for the bidding consortium.

It is said that it was opposed and coldly received by foreign financial groups at that time, and as a result, this plan was stillborn.

The Sydney government has not announced when the tender will be re-tendered.

The bidding failed, and Zheng Yutong and He Hongsun did not lose confidence in Australia. They found that the Australian gaming industry has a bright future, and it is adjacent to Southeast Asia. Most of the high-rollers who come here are from Southeast Asia, and they often bet more than 100,000 US dollars.

Although the gambling industry in Haojiang is well developed, it is a tiny place, far less fun than Australia.

After Zheng Yutong and He Hongshen returned to Xiangjiang for a while to rest, they returned to their horses and went to Australia to find opportunities to start a gambling business.

At that time, Ho Hongsun took a fancy to the Buswood Casino in Perth and expressed his intention to acquire it.

Buswood Casino was originally operated by Malaysian gamblers, and later Japanese businessmen bought shares and gradually expanded their shareholding. When Ho Hongsun took a fancy, Japanese gamblers and the local government each held half of the shares.

He Hongshen heard that due to the economic downturn in Japan, the Japanese consortium is preparing to reduce the scale of overseas investment, so it may have the intention to release the market.

As a result, Ho Hongshen explored the market six times. The Japanese gamblers, who knew the illustrious name of the gambling tycoon, asked for a lot of money. He Hongshen left Perth in a fit of anger.

On the other hand, Zheng Yutong traveled to Queensland to participate in the bidding for the local gaming industry in Kaienkan.

Because he did not understand the regulations of the local gambling industry and the bid was low, Zheng Yutong lost his name to Sun Shan and was defeated by other consortiums, leaving him disappointed.

This is how the two of them will invest in the gambling industry in Australia in the future. Simply put, just listen to the thunder, but not see the rain!

But what Chu Huan didn't expect was that the two of them were now eyeing Australia.

What Chu Huan didn't know was that this was actually related to himself. When Chu Huan took Zheng Yutong and others to Australia to inspect their iron mines, then Australian Prime Minister John Fraser and shadow cabinet member Bob Hawke personally After receiving the group of them, at the banquet, Zheng Yutong also discovered that Chu Huan had a very close relationship with the two of them.

This gave Zheng Yutong the idea of ​​entering Australia in advance.

Facing the hopeful eyes of the two, Chu Huan said with a smile: "It stands to reason that my relationship with you should help, but my relationship with Bob Hawke is not as close as you think. , I am afraid that there is no way to help the two of you with this matter!"

Chu Huan doesn't even want to get involved in Haojiang's gaming industry, let alone talking about it in Australia. You must know that his relationship with Bob Hawke was bought with real money, and it's less time to use it. Chu Huan It is impossible to speak for the two of them in such a matter!

Although Chu Huan had clearly rejected the two of them, He Hongshen didn't want to give up, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Chu, if you can help to negotiate, brother Zheng and I are willing to give up 10% of the shares in the new casino to Mr. Chu." You don't need Director Chu to issue any funds!"

After Chu Huan finished listening, he just smiled, nodded and left with the two of them.

Seeing the back of Chu Huan leaving, Zheng Yutong gave a wry smile and said, "It seems that A Huan really doesn't want to set foot in the gambling industry. We can only figure out a solution for this matter!"

He Hongshen looked at Chu Huan's back and didn't speak.

For Chu Huan, such an occasion is actually meaningless. If it was not for this time, to see the situation of Hang Seng Bank, Chu Huan would not come here. Now that the basic situation is known, Chu Huan Also ready to leave.

But just when Chu Huan was about to leave, a girl's voice came from behind Chu Huan.

"Chairman, are you ready to leave?"

Chu Huan turned around suspiciously, and saw a twenty-year-old girl in a white dress with bare shoulders.

The girl has short hair, bright eyes and bright teeth, and her good figure looks uneven under the blessing of the dress. She is a well-deserved highlight in this banquet.

After seeing the other party, Chu Huan also smiled and said, "Ordinary TVB female artists can't come to such an occasion!"

The girl is a contract female artist of TVB, but this is not important. In fact, let alone an ordinary TVB female artist, even TVB's popular actress is not qualified to come to this occasion. Except Zhao Yazhi!

But the girl in front of Chu Huan is not an ordinary TVB female artist, because she also has another identity, He Chaoqiong, the eldest daughter of the second wife of He Hongshen.

In later generations, He Chaoqiong was a well-deserved strong woman in Hong Kong and Macau, but now she is not so famous. Although He Chaoqiong was still in college at this time, she did not stay in school, but came to Hong Kong and joined the TVB, became a contract artist of TVB.

And He Chaoqiong also met Zhang Guoying, Chen Boqiang and others at this time.

It's just that He Chaoqiong was obviously not as successful as a businessman as an entertainer. After filming a few unknown TV series in later generations, he left the show business circle, but maintained his relationship with Leslie Cheung, Chen Boqiang and others.

There were rumors about the scandal between her and Chen Boqiang.

In fact, Chen Boqiang's family can be regarded as a wealthy family in Xiangjiang, but compared with a family like He Hongshen, they still get together a lot. In addition, Chen Boqiang was born in the second family and is not eligible for family inheritance, so He Hongshen is even more I really look down on Chen Boqiang.

I don't know how the relationship between the two is now.

Chu Huan only knows about the rumored relationship between He Chaoqiong and Chen Boqiang, but Chu Huan is not clear about the specific situation.

"I'm just a troll in TVB, otherwise, the chairman, you can say hello to TVB's manager Liang, and play a play for me?"

He Chaoqiong said with a charming smile.

Chu Huan nodded indifferently and said, "I don't have any objections. The TV series starring the gambling king's daughter will be released, so there is still some topicality!"

He Chaoqiong showed a helpless expression when he heard what Chu Huan said: "Not many people in the stage know that I am my father's daughter!"

Chu Huan chuckled and said, "How could you not know!"

He Chaoqiong's small cherry mouth opened slightly, and his eyes flashed with a surprised expression: "How could they know, and I didn't tell anyone else?"

Chu Huan smiled bluntly: "You really think your father is a small person. Xiangjiang is so big, and the lace news about your family will be published in the newspapers from time to time. Regarding your family's situation, tabloid reporters probably know better than you. How could the big dye vat not know about it?"

He Chaoqiong showed a slumped expression when he heard what Chu Huan said, and said: "It's boring, I thought no one else knew about it, so it turns out that everyone is playing with me!"

Chu Huan chuckled, although He Chaoqiong is very beautiful, but now Chu Huan does not want to cause this trouble, there are thousands of beautiful girls in this era, there is no need to provoke He Chaoqiong, after all, standing behind He Chaoqiong is He Hongshen, the Haojiang gambling king.

Although Chu Huan was not afraid of He Hongshen, he hated trouble. If he had anything to do with He Chaoqiong, he would definitely get involved in the troubles of the He family.

"Let's go first, bye!"

Chu Huan bowed to He Chaoqiong and came to He Shanheng's side again. After chatting with him for a few words, he was sent off by other people in the banquet hall and left here.

But when Chu Huan was about to get in the car, he suddenly saw He Chaoqiong running towards him with her skirt in hand.

"How did you come out?"

Standing at the door of the back seat of the car, Chu Huan looked at He Chaoqiong who looked like a runaway bride and asked.

He Chaoqiong smiled triumphantly: "Anyway, it's not interesting at all. Seeing that the chairman is coming out, I will follow!"

Chu Huan chuckled, and did not reject He Chaoqiong too bluntly, and said: "Then get in the car and take you out of here!"

"Thank you, chairman!" He Chaoqiong happily got into Chu Huan's car.

"Where are you going?" After getting in the car, Chu Huan smelled the fragrance of He Chaoqiong's body. This fragrance was different from the perfume that Chu Huan smelled, and it was more like a natural body fragrance.

Sitting in Chu Huan's car, He Chaoqiong said bluntly, "Tonggong Bay!"

Chu Huan didn't care, and motioned Han Yang to drive to Causeway Bay.

What Chu Huan didn't expect was that He Chaoqiong found a boutique in Causeway Bay, and rushed in. After a while, He Chaoqiong changed into a double-breasted round-neck suit with a wipe He wrapped his chest in black, then lay down in front of Chu Huan's car window, and preached with a smile.

"Chairman, don't you think I have room to put money in my body just now?"

Chu Huan smiled wryly, and asked Han Yang to pay He Chaoqiong the bill.

"It's the first time I've seen you being so arrogant among the employees!" Chu Huan said to He Chaoqiong who just got into the car.

He Chaoqiong said proudly: "Don't you be so stingy? At worst, I'll treat you to supper!"

Chu Huan couldn't help laughing and said, "Could it be that you have money with you after changing your clothes?"

He Chaoqiong said: "Don't worry, I will definitely not let you spend money this time."

After finishing speaking, He Chaoqiong reported an address to Han Yang without seeing anyone. Han Yang glanced at Chu Huan in the rearview mirror, and seeing that Chu Huan had no objection, he drove to the place He Chaoqiong mentioned.

The place He Chaoqiong mentioned was a seafood food stall. When the car stopped here, He Chaoqiong dragged Chu Huan out of the car, then pointed in one direction and said triumphantly: "Did you see that the treater is here?" over there!"

Chu Huan followed the direction of He Chaoqiong's finger and saw a half-acquaintance.

The reason why it is called one and a half is because of the two sitting there, Chu Huan knows one and knows one!

I know Zhang Guoying, and I know Chen Boqiang.

Xiangjiang's entertainment industry seems to always like to give people in the entertainment industry a name.

Zhang Guoying and Chen Boqiang are no exception, plus another Paul Zhong, when the three of them first debuted, they were called the third prince of Central.

It's just that the fate of the three is not very good.

Paul Chung, the youngest, passed away first. At the age of 30, he jumped off his apartment in City One in Sha Tin.

Then there was Chen Boqiang, the second oldest, who died of gradual brain failure after 17 months of hospitalization due to an overdose of sleeping pills after drinking.

Then there is Zhang Guoying

Before that, Chu Huan had met Zhang Guoying in Zhang Guoying's father's dress shop, but the number of times he had met since then was less, and Chen Boqiang and Chu Huan had never met him.

Zhang Guoyi and Chen Baiqiang have known each other since 1978, and they even co-starred in the movie "Unemployed" last year.

Now can be said to be the best time for the relationship between the two. In two years, the two will have a falling out. As for the reason for the falling out, more people still attribute this matter to Chen Boqiang's sensitive personality.

In fact, during the period when the two just debuted, Chen Boqiang's popularity was higher than that of Zhang Guoyi. This can also be seen from the movies they collaborated with. The two collaborated on two movies, and in these two movies Among them, Zhang Guoying is the second male, and Chen Boqiang is the first male.

Some media even referred to Zhang Guoying as Chen Boqiang's follower.

But later, with the popularity of Zhang Guoying's album "Monica", Zhang Guoying's popularity came from behind, and Tan Yonglin and Tan Yonglin formed a situation where Tan and Zhang competed for hegemony, but Chen Boqiang could not be brilliant, so the news of the two people's hostility spread.

As for whether this matter is true or false, only the parties involved will know.

Seeing He Chaoqiong approaching, Chen Boqiang immediately stood up, but when he saw He Chaoqiong dragging Chu Huan over, his expression suddenly became a little ugly, then he stood up and sat down again.

At that time, after Zhang Guoyan saw Chu Huan, he showed a puzzled expression.

"Chu Dong, why are you here?"

Chu Huan said with a smile: "I met Pansy at the banquet, so I followed her here!"

Chen Boqiang who was on the side suddenly said: "Can you get used to the simple food here, Mr. Chu?"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of Zhang Guoyan and He Chaoqiong suddenly changed. Obviously, neither of them thought that Chen Boqiang would say such a thing.

Zhang Guoyi hurriedly tried to smooth things over with a smile: "Mr. Chu, don't get me wrong. Danny means that the food here is not to your liking. If we had known that Mr. Chu would come here, we should have found a better place!"

Chu Huan chuckled, although he could see that the reason why Chen Boqiang said this was because he misunderstood the relationship between himself and He Chaoqiong, but Chu Huan was not his parents, let alone his fans, but There is no problem with getting used to him.

After chatting with Zhang Guoying with a smile, he sat down.

He Chaoqiong was also worried that what Chen Boqiang said just now would make Chu Huan feel dissatisfied, so she sat beside Chu Huan and whispered, "Brother Huan, I'm sorry, Danny has been very anxious about his new song recently, you Don't take what he just said to heart!"

Chen Boqiang, who was sitting on the other side of He Chaoqiong, saw that He Chaoqiong sat down, and instead of talking to himself first, he chatted with Chu Huan in a low voice. Although he was explaining for himself, Chen Boqiang still felt very uncomfortable inside.

In fact, at this time, Chen Boqiang and He Chaoqiong had no definite relationship, but Chen Boqiang had a good impression of He Chaoqiong, which was already a certainty.

So knowing that he shouldn't say anything more at this time, he couldn't help but snorted coldly.

Hearing this cold snort, Chu Huan frowned slightly. Although Chen Boqiang thought he was several levels behind at this time and there was no need to compete with him at all, Chu Huan was still very dissatisfied with the other party's continuous behavior.

"Forget it, since you're here, Pansy, I'll leave first!"

Chu Huan had no intention of sitting here anymore.

He Chaoqiong and Zhang Guoying naturally knew that Chu Huan was angry at this time, and Zhang Guoyi even gently tugged at the corner of Chen Boqiang's clothes under the table, signaling for him to apologize to Chu Huan immediately.

But Chen Boqiang didn't seem to feel it at all, and sat there in a daze without saying anything.

Seeing that Chu Huan got up, He Chaoqiong also got up quickly when he really wanted to leave, "Brother Huan, what happened tonight, I..."

At this time, the most embarrassing thing is not Chen Boqiang, but He Chaoqiong. After all, she brought Chu Huan, and when he came, Chen Boqiang was here to put on face.

"Okay, it's nothing, I'm leaving first!"

After speaking, Chu Huan left directly.

Seeing Chu Huan leave, He Chaoqiong said dissatisfiedly to Chen Boqiang: "Danny, what are you doing, don't you know how much I thought about inviting Brother Huan here?

Now you let him leave angrily, don't you want to hang out in the entertainment industry? "

Chen Boqiang said sullenly: "If you don't mess around, you don't mess around, what's the big deal!"

"You..." He Chaoqiong was speechless. This was the first time she felt that Chen Boqiang was a little childish. Could it really be the end of offending Chu Huan just by not being in the entertainment circle?

Thank you everyone, the typo will be corrected first~
