Chapter 599: Going in a circle (please subscribe)
After breakfast, Lu Weidong returned to his residence and fell asleep in a daze on the chair.
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Lu Weidong opened his eyes and connected.
"Mr. Lu? I'm He Heng." He Heng's respectful voice came from the other end of the phone.
"What? How have you considered it?" Lu Weidong said in a deep voice.
"Mr. Lu! I wonder what harsh conditions you and the people behind you have?" On the other end of the phone, after a moment of silence, a questioning voice suddenly came.
Lu Weidong frowned and said calmly: "I can tell you responsibly that our requirements will always be lower than those of HSBC. This is my promise! At the moment, it is useless to say more. I have to leave Xiangjiang for a while. Waiting for early April
When the time comes, let’s talk again! Otherwise, you won’t be reconciled.”
There was silence on the other end of the phone.
After a long time, He Heng's solemn voice came.
"Mr. Lu! As you said, I really won't give in until life or death is at stake."
"Understood! Let's just wait and see what happens!" After Lu Weidong finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
He knows that emerging local bankers like He Heng will not bow their heads until they are desperate.
These people, due to historical reasons, became rich overnight.
Perhaps, in their opinion, it is their own ability and their ability.
However, in Lu Weidong's view, this is just a matter of them taking advantage of historical trends and riding the last train of rapid development.
They are lucky!
Compared with the ordinary people who go to the battlefield and the fate of all living beings, how happy they are!
This group of people has reaped the dividends of the war, and now they are finally being hunted by their British overlords. This is the inevitable result.
The inertia of capital is that the big fish eats the small fish and the small fish eats the shrimp, the law of the jungle.
Lu Weidong shook his head and went to the bedroom to sleep.
Soon, at noon, Lu Weidong woke up.
He freshened up and went downstairs with his bag.
After lunch, Lu Weidong boarded a passenger ship to Macau and Hong Kong next door.
A few hours later, Lu Weidong set foot on Macao and Hong Kong.
After much wandering, Lu Weidong came to the most famous casino in Macao and Hong Kong.
On the first day, five million.
The next day, it was still five million.
On the third day, six million.
The fourth day, seven million...
On the seventh day, ten million.
In one week, a total of more than 40 million Hong Kong dollars was collected.
Such a huge amount has always made Aojiang Casino aware of it.
Someone began to follow Lu Weidong, and his residence outside the hotel was monitored by spies.
Lu Weidong has already noticed it, but it is already too late for him.
At dawn, Lu Weidong left the hotel quietly.
He went directly to the airport and boarded a trip to Las Vegas...
The casino city of Las Vegas is hundreds of miles away from Los Angeles. When Lu Weidong arrived, it was already dawn the next day.
The casino city of Las Vegas is the most luxurious tourist destination in the current era.
The moment you step into the casino gate, the magnificent aura of wealth is eye-catching.
It seems to have a magical power, making people feel like they are in heaven.
Lu Weidong walked around the casino and then went upstairs to get a room to rest for the day.
Right now, he holds 40 million Hong Kong dollars, all of which is deposited in Citibank.
As night falls, it’s when gamblers gather in the casino.
Lu Weidong also followed the crowd and joined the casino army.
Here, Lu Weidong became much more vigilant.
Lu Weidong followed the flow of people and played stud first.
Overnight, he earned two million US dollars.
The next night, five million dollars.
On the third night, five million US dollars.
The fourth day, 15 million US dollars.
The fifth day, 15 million US dollars.
At this time, Lu Weidong immediately stopped.
He went to play slot machines.
Overnight, I gained 20 million US dollars.
At dawn, Lu Weidong immediately left the casino, boarded a booked plane, and flew to Tokyo in Japan.
After getting off the airport, Lu Weidong wandered around Tokyo. After making sure no one was following him, he boarded a plane to East Bay.
After much wandering, Lu Weidong returned to Xiangjiang on a smuggling boat at night.
At this time, it happens to be April 1st.
"Sir! What kind of goods are these? Why are they so heavy?" The boss of the smuggling ship lifted the mountain-like pile of suitcases and looked at Lu Weidong with a relaxed look in surprise.
At this time, Lu Weidong was loading suitcases on the pickup truck.
He raised his head and glanced at the boss of the ship, and said with a smile: "They are all specialties of East Bay, ordered by the boss."
The boss of the boat nodded slightly and went straight past Lu Weidong to the shore.
After a while, the small truck was filled with suitcases.
The car started and disappeared into the night...
At dawn, Lu Weidong was awakened by the phone ringing.
He walked straight out of the bedroom and picked up the phone.
"Mr. Lu? My name is He Heng. Can I come and visit you?" He Heng's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.
Lu Weidong raised the corner of his mouth and said calmly: "What are you thinking about?"
At present, he has learned about the latest situation of Hang Seng Bank.
The bank run crisis has reached its peak, and outside newspapers have published it. Hang Seng Bank has begun negotiations with HSBC and Aramco’s Chase Bank.
At present, Hang Seng Bank has lost 200 million Hong Kong dollars. If there is no exciting news, it will be doomed.
"Mr. Lu! It's just as you expected! Now, Hang Seng is close to bankruptcy. Mr. Lu, I hope to talk in person! I hope to get help from you and the forces behind it." He Heng said cautiously.
"My promise remains unchanged! By the way, does anyone else know about my existence?" Lu Weidong frowned.
Before leaving, he forgot to warn He Heng.
In Lu Weidong's view, this acquisition has been planned for a long time, and the trap is waiting for He Heng to jump.
There may be some insider cooperation among them.
"Mr. Lu! I haven't told everyone yet! No one else knows. Not even my wife." He Heng said immediately.
He has already noticed the behemoth behind Lu Weidong.
Because, according to the information about Lu Weidong's residence and the clues about the Laojiu Wonton Noodle House, they all point to Lu Di, the mainland of the motherland.
For He Heng, it was not surprising.
Because the earliest generation of current policemen were transferred from Lu Di.
Lu Di Chao Lao is already a circle of Xiangjiang Chao Lao.
He Heng understood that there must be Guojia Bank behind Lu Weidong.
Unfortunately, He Heng guessed wrong!
At the moment, Guojia Bank lacks foreign exchange reserves even more than He Heng and others.
More foreign exchange reserves are needed!
Asu in the north has been collecting foreign debts, which is already a huge mountain weighing on the people of the motherland.
Therefore, regarding this bank run, involving the public-private joint venture company under Guojia Bank, Guojia Bank was unable to save it and could only fend for itself.
The money in Lu Weidong's hands may be able to save a number of small banks.
However, these small banks are basically public-private partnerships and there are too many shareholders. Lu Weidong simply gave up on this plan.
Even if it is given to Guojia Bank for free to pay off foreign debts, it is much better than saving these small banks!
"Very good! Come and talk!" After saying that, Lu Weidong put down the phone.
He Heng's heart was shocked. He hurriedly put down the phone, walked to the mirror, tidied his clothes, and hurried downstairs with his hat in hand.
