"Mr. Shi, are you kidding?" Li Fuzhao hesitated and asked. "As everyone knows, the stock price of Ritchie Construction Company is currently sluggish..."
Li Fuzhao still saved some face for Shi Zhijian. He did not say that the stock price had dropped to the eighth level of hell, but only used the word "downturn" to describe it.
"Besides, it has already been listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Isn't it a bit unreasonable for you to let it be listed on our Far East Securities Exchange?"
"Of course I know it's a bit unreasonable." Shi Zhijian rubbed the warm tea cup with his hand, "Now that Ritchie Construction Company is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, it is indeed difficult to list on your Far East Securities, so I have decided to list on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
Delisted!"
"Ah?" Li Fuzhao and others looked at me and I looked at you. No one expected that Shi Zhijian would suddenly make such a move.
"Did you learn from me? I just resigned from the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce, and this kid is delisting?" Li Fuzhao muttered to himself.
"Ahem, that's not what I meant. It doesn't matter whether your company is delisted or not! To be honest, even if you don't delist, you might be liquidated!" Li Fuzhao didn't want to save face for Shi Zhijian anymore. He could see it.
This Shi Zhijian is a shameless master. If he is given too much face, he might not be able to get off the stage.
"Chairman Li, you are wrong to say that." Shi Zhijian said with a smile, "Although Ricci Construction is currently in crisis, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, not to mention me. With the support of the Shinhwa Group behind me, it cannot collapse.
It fell!"
"Well, how about this, I will delist the company from the Hong Kong Stock Exchange first, and then list it on your newly established Far East Securities Exchange! My requirements are not high, I just need to recognize my company as the number one in your exchange.
Just a listed company!”
"Ahem, what? Do you want to be the first listed company on our stock exchange?" Li Fuzhao wondered if he heard wrongly. This Shi Zhijian is too shameless, so it is enough for a broken company to be listed on the Far East Stock Exchange.
Still want to be number one?
You know, the first company to be listed on the opening day of the stock exchange has always been a well-known large company, also called a "leading company". The share price of Ritchie Construction has dropped to nothing, so why should it be a "leading company"?
?!
At this moment, not only Li Fuzhao thought Shi Zhijian was crazy, but Director Wan, Director Wang, and even Bi Fafa, who acted as Shi Zhijian's introducer, all felt that there was something wrong with Shi Zhijian's brain and that he was seriously ill.
The atmosphere in the VIP room was somewhat solidified. Fortunately, the two singing girls began to play the guqin and sang leisurely. If you listen carefully, it was "Water Lotus".
This song is a Cantonese Hakka ditty. The girl sang and played it, "The bright white lotus welcomes the moonlight, the moonlight ripples lightly, the lotus blossoms bloom, and the boat is graceful..."
Li Fuzhao looked at Shi Zhijian and said with a dumb smile: "Mr. Shi, did I hear correctly? Do you want to be the leading company listed on the Far East Stock Exchange on the first day?"
"Yes, you heard it right." Shi Zhijian answered seriously.
"Why?" Li Fuzhao spat out three words and his eyes became sharp, "Do you think our Far East Securities is just a child's play? Are you playing house? You can list your company casually and act as a leader? Is it possible for you?
Is it my brother? I want to protect you?"
Shi Zhijian blinked, suddenly stood up and raised his glass and said: "Brother Li, if you don't mind, I will replace the wine with tea, and we will become brothers with you now!"
"Pfft!" Li Fuzhao was drinking water, choked and coughed. He knew that Shi Zhijian seemed a bit thick-skinned, but he didn't expect him to be so thick-skinned!
Director Wan and Director Wang also looked shocked, and four words couldn't help but pop up in their minds - shameless!
Bi Fafa is finally convinced!
He didn't know where he lost Shi Zhijian before, but now he understands that he can't learn such shameless skills! He is too gentle and civilized!
"Don't make such a fuss! When will I agree to accept you as my younger brother?" Li Fuzhao also stood up, looking a little angry.
The girl playing the guqin felt the tense atmosphere in the room, and couldn't help but hook her finger, and with a bang, one of the strings was broken!
Shi Zhijian did not directly answer Li Fuzhao's words, but turned to look at the girl playing the piano, smiled slightly and said: "Did the strings break? This is a sign of meeting a close friend! Don't be anxious, change the strings and play slowly! No money will be deducted.
of!"
The girl was panicking at first, but when she saw Shi Zhijian's warm smile and heard his gentle words, she calmed down and started to change the strings.
After a while, the sound of the piano sounded again in the room.
Shi Zhijian turned back to look at Li Fuzhao and said with a smile: "Chairman Li, you saw it too! You and I are like Yu Boya and Zhong Ziqi. Soulmates are hard to find, and even the strings of the piano will break for you and me! Why don't you think about it again, do you want to
Become sworn brothers with me? In fact, I am such a handsome boy and have such a promising future, so I usually don’t recognize my elder brother randomly. I just like you and think you are a good person... Don’t miss the opportunity!"
Li Fuzhao originally wanted to get angry, but was immediately amused by Shi Zhijian's words, "Yes! Yes! You are so sharp. Many people have begged to become sworn brothers with you and want to accept you as their younger brother or younger brother! But...
I'm sorry, our Li family has a big business and a lot of people, and my youngest brother has a lot of them, so there is no shortage!"
"That's a pity!" Shi Zhijian shook his head and sat down again.
Li Fuzhao also sat down, feeling that there was nothing left to talk about. It was rumored that Shi Zhijian was so powerful, but it turned out that he was just a young kid talking nonsense! He was wrong!
Just then, "What if I invite Rockefeller?"
"Uh, what?" Li Fuzhao was stunned.
The others were also stunned and looked at Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian leaned on the chair comfortably, playing with the teacup in his hand, and said with a smile: "I mean, on the opening day of the Far East Stock Exchange, what do you think if I can invite the American tycoon Mr. Rockefeller to come and cheer you on?"
?”
These words are like a huge thunder, shocking people!
Li Fuzhao bit his lip, wondering if he heard correctly.
Director Wan and Director Wang's eyes widened even more, and they were shocked by Shi Zhijian's sudden words.
As a newly established stock exchange, especially the stock trading market founded and dominated by Chinese for the first time, it has always been suppressed by British capital! Even the British Hong Kong government is waiting to see the joke!
Li Fuzhao and others look calm on the surface, relying on the Chinese to create such a huge stock trading market, but in fact they are panicking inside. If no one cheers or cheers on the opening day, then this market will completely collapse!
To put it more bluntly, the first shot of the Far East Exchange on the day of its establishment must be a success!
But as a colony of British Hong Kong, who would dare to risk offending the British Hong Kong government and the ghost capital to cheer for the Far East Stock Exchange?
This is not alarmist, but fact!
The establishment of the Far East Stock Exchange clearly aims to steal food from the Hong Kong Stock Exchange controlled by Gui Lao!
Gui Lao Capital is determined to retaliate, and will often use extreme measures to retaliate against those who betrayed.
A few days ago, Li Fuzhao specially invited Mr. Du Lujing, the owner of the time-honored Guangdong Development Bank in Hong Kong, to attend the opening ceremony for the opening of the securities firm.
To Lu Ching is a celebrity in Hong Kong with strong financial power. She has opened several Guangdong Publishing branches in Hong Kong. Her business covers Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories, and she operates daily miscellaneous department stores, clothing, perfumes and other products.
But on the day he agreed to Li Fuzhao, all the Guilao companies that had previously cooperated with Guangfa called Guilao and asked to terminate the contract and no longer provide various foreign goods to Guangfa, especially the best-selling perfumes and clothing of Guangfa.
Out of stock immediately!
Du Lujing knew the reason immediately, so she visited Li Fuzhao in person that night, apologized repeatedly, and finally resigned from her position as "opening guest" on the opening day.
This was a huge blow to Li Fuzhao and others. Although they had already thought that the establishment of the Far East Stock Exchange would not go smoothly, they did not expect that it would be so difficult. They could not even invite a guest for the opening!
Now, the establishment of the Far East Exchange is actually a battle without smoke.
On one side is Gui Lao Capital, and on the other side is Chinese Capital headed by Li Fuzhao and others.
Chinese Capital wants to break Gui Lao Capital’s monopoly in the securities market!
The ghost guy will never divide the interests he has already controlled!
Those two-headed Hong Kong businessmen were sitting on the wall looking left and right!
More people are waiting to see Chinese capital make a fool of themselves!
After all, this is Hong Kong!
The rulers of Hong Kong in this era are the British!
Of course Shi Zhijian is well aware of the difficulties faced by Li Fuzhao and others.
Shi Zhijian’s biggest habit is reading newspapers every day, especially financial, real estate, and economic trends!
Regarding the economic development of this era, the economic pattern has already been well understood.
Shi Zhijian can completely draw on the experience of his previous life to accurately deduce the development context of Hong Kong's economy!
As for the visit of David Rockefeller, the world's top ten richest man, to Hong Kong, it is not Shi Zhijian's fabrication, but a fact!
In 2007, Oriental Publishing House, "A Hundred Years of Hong Kong's Financial Industry" written by Feng Bangyan introduced: On February 23, 1970, the Far East Stock Exchange opened. On March 12, Rockefeller, one of the world's top ten richest men, arrived in Hong Kong to preside over the International
Investment seminar.
In other words, even if Shi Zhijian does nothing, Rockefeller will come to Hong Kong in the future!
Find out the reason!
This year Rockefeller serves as the president of Chase Manhattan Bank in the United States. He wants to defeat American banks such as Citigroup and expand Chase Bank's business to all parts of Asia. As the financial center of Asia, Hong Kong is the first stop he must arrive!
To put it bluntly, it is driven by profit!
Because of this, Shi Zhijian was confident that he could "invite" Rockefeller from the United States, thousands of miles away. As for whether Rockefeller was willing to be the "opening guest" of the Far East Stock Exchange, Shi Zhijian needed to find another way.
"Shi Zhijian, are you telling the truth?" Li Fuzhen was so excited that he ignored the etiquette and stood up and called him by his first name.
"Yes, you said you could invite Mr. Rockefeller, the world's top ten richest man, to Hong Kong?"
"Invite Hong Kong to attend the opening ceremony of our Far East Securities Exchange?"
Director Wan and Director Wang also became excited and jumped up from their chairs, staring at Shi Zhijian with wide eyes, waiting for his answer.
Bi Fafa was even more frightened by Shi Zhijian's words. These big guys in front of him were beyond his reach. Who is Rockefeller, the world's top ten richest man? Could Shi Zhijian really invite him? Who are he and Rockefeller?
relation?
Faced with everyone's surprised questions, Shi Zhijian was too embarrassed to sit alone anymore, so he slowly stood up and said: "Yes! Don't you understand if I speak Chinese? Isn't it just to invite Rockefeller? I have a very good relationship with him.
Yes! We often exchange letters, talk about some charities, some antique collections and so on! It can be said that we have been friends for years! To be honest, if I call him, he will definitely fly over by plane! "
Anyway, there is no tax for bragging, so Shi Zhijian brags hard!
Li Fuzhao was frightened.
Director Wan and others were even more shocked, looking at Shi Zhijian as if they were ghosts.
Bi Fafa felt his legs were weak. He never expected that Shi Zhijian, whom he had always admired, would be so awesome. Even Rockefeller was his "old friend"!
Fortunately, Li Fuzhao comes from a big family and has seen many braggadocios!
After losing consciousness for a moment, he immediately woke up.
"Hey, Mr. Shi! We are all adults. We are talking about business now, not joking!"
"I'm not kidding! I'm very serious!" Shi Zhijian spread his hands with an innocent look on his face.
"Think about it, if I invite Rockefeller to attend the opening ceremony of your firm, not to mention those ghost capital investors will be stunned, even those who are watching on the sidelines will be shocked!"
"That's not all! The most important thing is that Chairman Li, you will be high-spirited and proud! The establishment of the first Chinese securities exchange market in Hong Kong is enough for you to go down in history! You will shine through the ages!"
Shi Zhijian said in a dreamy and seductive tone. After speaking, he smiled at Li Fuzhao and gave him a self-explanatory look.
Li Fuzhao thought about that scene in his mind, and his eyes wanted to shine.
Director Wan and others' eyes almost popped out, and their breathing became heavy.
"There is no basis for what you say! If you can really invite Mr. Rockefeller to Hong Kong, don't ask your construction company to be the leader in our Far East Securities Exchange. Even if you ask me to call you a boss, I will do it!" Li Fuzhao said from
He escaped from the fantasy and said a harsh word to Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian stretched out his hand and gave a high-five: "Okay! We have an agreement! If I can't invite Rockefeller, I, Shi, am willing to be punished! I will publish it in the newspaper to admit my mistake and bragging! And donate five million to your institute!"
If I invite him to come over and cheer for your office, then Chairman Li will agree to my request and accept you, my little brother!"
Li Fuzhao didn't expect Shi Zhijian to be so tough-talking and still insisting on it now. Did he really know Rockefeller?!
There is no time to think too much, the loser does not lose the formation!
Li Fuzhao immediately gave Shi Zhijian a high-five!
