Chapter 671 The fish sees the bait but not the hook
This is the manor of the Situ family in Zhizhongtang. Today is the meeting of the big brothers in Chinatown. The bodyguards are all downstairs, and the big brothers have all gone upstairs to the conference room on the third floor.
Situ Hong sat in the main seat. He was the leader of Zhi Zhongtang and the largest club in Chinatown. The other brothers sat down according to their seniority and strength, waiting for Situ Hong to speak.
"I believe you have all been notified. What are your opinions?" Situ Hong began to ask everyone for their opinions. It would be impossible not to ask. This matter is not small, and it comes from the San Francisco police.
Some time ago, the San Francisco police sent a plan to the bosses of various groups, a plan to re-divide the territories of each group. In fact, the territories of all Chinese associations were reduced. Of course, this is not the final plan.
The person who came to deliver the plan said that if you are not satisfied, you must give something, and you can participate in a special action. As for what action, they did not say, but the brothers who participated, please don't worry about it anymore. It is obvious that the fate of these people will happen.
Already confirmed.
"I made some inquiries and found that not only our Chinese association was notified, but other associations were also notified. Moreover, the territory of the Vietnamese gang expanded by two streets." An old man next to Situ Hong spoke.
"Old Li, is there any news?" Situ Hong asked. The old man named Li shook his head and Situ Hong nodded.
"Master Hong, I have some news here." A young man sitting below spoke. Situ Hong was stunned, nodded, and motioned for the young man to continue.
"The operation arranged by the police this time was a riot. The people involved in the operation may not be able to come back. After the riot, someone will definitely need to pay the bill. Vietnam helped a hundred people, so those two streets can be regarded as compensation." This young man
Say it directly.
All the eldest brothers frowned, especially the old people, who had experienced this kind of thing. At this time, the young man continued to speak, and he had not finished speaking just now.
"The riots are not targeting ordinary people, but Congressman Thomas and the others. I heard them saying that they are trying to prevent some kind of protective umbrella from coming to San Francisco. They are very targeted." The young man told what he knew.
"Protective Umbrella" Situ Hong muttered this name to himself, and there was an evil fire in his heart that wanted to come up, but he reluctantly suppressed it.
"Xiaowen, where did you get this news?" asked an old man next to him.
"Uncle Hu, this news came from the secretary of the police chief. For this news, he paid more than one million in gambling debts with me. It should be more reliable. What he means is that the police chief is the mayor of San Francisco.
, and the protective umbrella is too strong, so a big show is needed to do it," Xiaowen said seriously.
Situ Hong's heart was moved. If the mayor could be so scrupulous, there must be something he didn't know about. Is the protective umbrella so strong? In Southeast Asia, the protective umbrella is strong. Situ Hong admitted this. Is it possible that the protective umbrella is so big in the United States?
of power.
"It seems that big changes are going to happen in San Francisco. The gods are fighting, and us kiddies are sad." Uncle Tiger shook his head and said. This kind of thing has happened not only once or twice, but every time, the kiddies died in batches.
The big shots above don't care at all how many of these kiddies die. In the eyes of those big shots, the association is garbage and a factor of instability. The more people die, the better. They don't see it at all.
"Everyone who participates this time will get a lot of supplements. I have already agreed." A middle-aged man spoke. Others looked at this man and he smiled.
"A Cheng, it's your own little brother who died, are you really willing to do so?" Uncle Hu narrowed his eyes and looked at the middle-aged man.
"Uncle Tiger, how can I give up my own little brother? You also know my business. There are so many people who have come here illegally. If you give them a little promise, they will rush forward screaming. If they die, it is none of my business." Ah Cheng laughed.
He said.
"Brother Cheng is right, I think so too." A young man next to Acheng also expressed his position, and the people below began to discuss. Situ Hong narrowed his eyes and looked at Lao Li and Uncle Hu next to him.
Young people really don't know how to live and die. Is it so easy to get involved in things here? This is to stand in line. If one person is not good, the whole army will be wiped out. It is so dangerous that they rush to join in. I really think those people are vegetarians.
?
The fish see the bait but not the hook, and the people see the benefits but not the harm, one by one they are stunned by the power. Situ Hong coughed all over when he looked at the noisy people below. The people below became quiet. Situ Hong still has a certain prestige and can suppress the gang below.
people.
"So, Ah Cheng, Chen Chao, you two have already agreed, is there anyone else who has agreed?" Situ Hong started to ask the elder brothers.
"Uncle Hong, I also agreed." Li Baochen declined his hand from below, indicating that he also participated.
"Uncle Hong, I am also participating." Cao Yan also raised his hand.
"I also agreed." Xu Zhiguo also raised his hand,
"And me" "And me" "And me" 100% to 40% of the elder brothers raised their hands.
Including Situ Hong, several old people narrowed their eyes. They didn't expect that so many people were involved. What did they want to do? They took charge of this matter without any consultation. Did they take me seriously?
inside.
Situ Hong looked at the two people next to him, and they both nodded. Situ Hong could see the pain in their eyes, and let out a long sigh. He chose his own path, and he couldn't blame others.
"Raise your hands if you don't want to participate," Situ Hong said directly. After speaking, he raised his hands. The old people on the left and right also raised their hands, and many people below also raised their hands.
Ah Cheng looked at it and said "hum", "Master Hong, this is an opportunity. Those who don't participate will be attacked. Our territory has been shrinking one after another. We are being attacked, but we have no territory." Ah Cheng
After Cheng Yin Yang Yang said something, many people began to hesitate on their faces.
Situ Hong smiled and said, "I'm old and can't be as motivated as you. I wish you great success. I, Zhi Zhongtang, will definitely not participate in this matter. You can participate if you want, but not in the name of the alliance. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude.
"Situ Hong said with a smile.
"Yes, if you dare to use the name of the alliance, I won't be polite," Uncle Hu also said.
Immediately afterwards, four or five old people all expressed their opinions. They were on Situ Hong's side. At this point in the meeting, it could be said that the two sides were clearly divided. Ah Cheng looked around and stood up.
"Okay, I will do it in my own name. However, the territory I get after the matter is completed will also belong to me personally and will not belong to the alliance." Acheng looked at Situ Hong and said directly. Acheng is also a powerful elder brother, otherwise he would not
Dare to speak like this.
"Okay," Situ Hong said directly, still thinking about your territory. If you can save your life, even if you have the ability, you don't know whether to live or die.
"Farewell" Ah Cheng said and turned around to leave. Everyone who was involved in this matter like him stood up and left the conference room. Situ Hong did not stop him at all.
After everyone left, Uncle Hu turned to look at Situ Hong, "Brother Hong, look at this matter, how should we deal with it?" Uncle Hu asked, knowing very well the importance of this.
"Tiger, Lao Li, we have all experienced similar things. Are we allowed to participate in these things? In the past, those who participated had a good end. You all know the situation of Umbrella in Southeast Asia. Yes
Are you a vegetarian? For the mayor to treat you so carefully, it shows that the person who came here is not a good person." Situ Hong said seriously.
The rest of the people nodded and agreed with Situ Hong's statement, "What's more, this is a political matter. It's faster to fall out than to read a book. What are we? In the eyes of their politicians, we are just garbage.
They will care about our life and death," Situ Hong continued.
Although these words don’t sound good, they are true. “Let’s start shrinking our staff. Although it will be a little more difficult for us recently, it is better than participating in it. When the truth comes out, our difficulties will be over, and those who have lost will be better.”
Yes, I will come back slowly." Situ Hong decided on the strategy, and everyone nodded.
"Since you have decided not to participate with me, then be prepared," Situ Hong said to the people below. They all nodded seriously. This meeting is over.
During this period, not only the Chinese associations, but also basically all the associations in San Francisco have received the notice. It is up to you to decide what to do. The power of the police station is still very powerful. Associations of various ethnic groups are holding frequent meetings to discuss what to do.
.
Guo Yongren was very comfortable at the moment. He and Robert had a detailed chat with Marcus, the vice president sent by Ernst & Young. The three of them drank tea and chatted together on the platform of Guo Yongren's manor.
Robert has already told Marcus about his needs. Marcus is in a very good mood. The umbrella is powerful. This acquisition is another big order.
And it’s not just one or two companies. The future is for the whole of Europe. The umbrella must be allowed to give all European orders to Ernst & Young. Marcus made up his mind.
"Mr. Guo, the European News Corporation wants to acquire more than just British companies, right?" Marcus said with a smile. Guo Yongren also smiled. He is really a smart man and thinks far enough.
"Yes, the first stage is from the UK, and in the next step, local newspapers or TV stations in France, Germany, etc., and other European countries will be acquisition targets," Guo Yongren said directly, without concealing anything.
Marcus took a deep breath. He must win the big order. This will help him a lot to take the next step. Just as he was thinking about it, Guo Yongren spoke again, "Of course, the progress depends on Robert. I just
Provide funds," Guo Yongren said with a smile.
Robert also smiled. The chairman was really interesting. "Mr. Guo, Robert said first, Ernst & Young basically has branches in various European countries. We, Ernst & Young, are responsible for auditing the accounts of many newspapers and even TV stations. We can completely become a protective umbrella."
A strategic partner in Europe, which is beneficial to both of us," Marcus said seriously.
