HKTV: How is the Great Owl made?

Half an hour later.

Li Bancheng, wearing a blue suit, walked into Batistuta's office.

At this time, the exclusive interview with Lin Yao on TV had come to an end.

"Mr. Li, what do you think?"

Batistuta looked at Li Bancheng and asked.

At this time, Batistuta's face was full of disappointment, like a defeated rooster.

He was completely different from the arrogance when he came out of Hong Kong Island.

At that time, he thought that with the deep foundation of Jardine Matheson and the support of the Governor of Hong Kong.

It would be absolutely effortless for him to defeat Tianyao Group.

But the cruel reality told him that he was wrong!

He underestimated Lin Yao, a young man who was as young as a freshman.

As more and more information about Lin Yao came to his mind, especially after various information about the Hong Kong Island tycoon's inspection team to the mainland came out.

Batistuta subconsciously felt a little scared of Lin Yao.

The popularity of this young man in the mainland and the high-level people he came into contact with made him feel extremely afraid.

There is no doubt that the mainland has a vast territory and a huge population, and will definitely become the world's number one market!

It just takes some time, because the mainland is now opening up more and more.

In addition to Hong Kong, major European and American companies have also begun to enter the mainland one after another and spend huge sums of money to compete for this big market first.

If I don't raise my 12 points of spirit to fight against Lin Yao, I'm afraid it will be a disaster.

Batistuta is arrogant and has the decadent and ridiculous arrogance of Great Britain.

But he is not stupid, after all, he is a top student of economics.

Li Bancheng thought for a while and said, "Mr. Batistuta, I think we should fully cooperate with Swire Group now."

"Otherwise, we will definitely not be able to compete with Tianyao Group."

"I can be a bridge between your two major consortiums!"

Hearing what Li Bancheng said, Batistuta nodded and said:

"Mr. Li, we have a certain cooperation with Jardine Matheson and Swire Group."

"But now it seems that we have to fully cooperate on the Saigon project."

"You go and talk to Schmidt. If he is willing, with your Cheung Kong Group, the three of us will work together."

"Each company will hold 30% of the shares, and the profits will be shared equally."

At this point, Batistuta has completely lost the ambition to take this project alone.

Li Bancheng nodded, then said a few words to Batistuta and left, going directly to the headquarters of Swire Group.

Batista finally showed a smile on his face. It seems that this guy, Li Bancheng, really has a way.

Ten minutes later, Schmidt walked into the office after the meeting.

Schmidt was a little surprised by Li Bancheng's arrival.

According to what he knew, Li Bancheng had become an ally of Batistuta.

He had distanced himself from Taikoo.

What on earth was he going to do here this time?

After a few pleasantries, Li Bancheng said:

"Mr. Schmidt, what do you think of Lin Yao's approach?"

"It seems that he is determined to get the land in Sai Kung, and the public opinion is so good that the three of us are in a passive position."

"Mr. Li, to be honest, our Taikoo Group's plan has been broken into pieces by those experts on TV."

"To be honest, I don't have much confidence in the Sai Kung project. Do you have any good ideas?"

After taking a sip of tea, Li Bancheng said directly:

"I have a way, that is, let the Governor of Hong Kong come out in person and explain that the Hong Kong government will re-evaluate the construction plan for Sai Kung."

"In this way, everyone is back to square one."

After hearing Li Bancheng's words, Schmidt had to admire Li Bancheng's brain.

This move is very ruthless.

If it is operated in this way, all the efforts of Tianyao Group before will come to naught.

The major financial groups will stand on the same starting line again.

The dilemma that Jardine Matheson and Taikoo's plans were criticized by experts in the past few days after they were leaked will be easily resolved.

Schmidt smiled and said to Li Bancheng: "Mr. Li, your plan is absolutely feasible."

"The key issue now is whether the Governor of Hong Kong will agree to our plan?"

"Or, can we persuade him?"

Schmidt's consideration is also very realistic.

Because it is getting closer and closer to the return, if the Governor of Hong Kong makes adjustments on major issues, it will definitely cause waves.

Especially the villagers in Sai Kung.

What if they take further major actions to surround the Governor's Office?

Schmidt told Li Bancheng about his worries.

After listening to this, Li Bancheng showed his signature smile and said:

"I have also considered this. It is indeed risky and difficult."

"But we are still sure that the Governor will never stand on Lin Yao's side."

"What he is worried about is the backlash from the villagers and fishermen in Sai Kung. I believe that the Governor should be able to control this himself."

"Now Swire Group will lobby the Governor together with Jardine Matheson and our Cheung Kong Group."

"The three of us will work together, contact several other Justices of the Peace, and the British financial group to maximize the pressure."

"At that time, the Governor will have to consider carefully what is more important!"

"Anyway, we have a better chance of winning, because the Governor of Hong Kong will never consider Lin Yao."

Schmidt was deeply concerned about this.

How could Peng Modai support Lin Yao?

According to what he knew, Peng Modai simply hated Lin Yao.

Because Lin Yao's current influence is enough to rival Peng Modai.

"Okay, Mr. Li, I completely agree with your suggestion."

"From now on, on the Saigon project, Swire Group will be integrated with Jardine Matheson and Cheung Kong Industries, and advance and retreat together."

"In short, this project must not fall into Lin Yao's hands."

"Go tell my old classmates that I will also mobilize my connections to contact several British financial groups to lobby the Governor of Hong Kong."

"Mr. Li, you mobilize the Justices of the Peace, and we will work together."

Hearing what Schmidt said, Li Bancheng stood up with a smile on his face and said to Schmidt:

"Okay, Mr. Schmidt."

"I will contact you if you have any information. If you have any key information, please be sure to contact me as soon as possible."

"Okay, Mr. Li, I will!"

Schmidt nodded and stood up as well, personally sending Li Bancheng out of the office.

What he didn't know was that their conversation would be delivered to Lin Yao's desk as soon as possible!

Because there was a micro-eavesdropping device working in the office!

After leaving Taikoo, Li Bancheng called Batista.

He told him what he talked about with Schmidt, and then went to Chiu Kee Real Estate Group.

After some lobbying and painting cakes, it was easy to pull the already eliminated Chiu Kee Real Estate Group into his chariot.

Then, he personally visited several Taipingshengshi in Hong Kong Island. Those who can become Taipingshengshi are all big bosses of Chinese-funded groups.

But he was disappointed this time.

No Justice of the Peace from the Chinese-funded group will stand on their side clearly.

Each of these Justices of the Peace is over 70 years old and has seen many storms.

They can see the situation in Hong Kong Island.

They know that now is not the time to choose sides, otherwise they will capsize.

It is better not to offend both sides, so that there will be room for maneuver at that time.

For them, offending the foreigners will cause great losses in the next few years.

But offending Lin Yao will not only cause great losses, but may even lose their lives.

However, Li Bancheng did not think that these people could play a big role.

To persuade Peng Modai, the power of the British consortium was already sufficient, and bringing them in was just icing on the cake.

Since these people disagreed, Li Bancheng had no choice.

Just as Li Bancheng expected, when Jardine Matheson \u0026 Co., Taikoo \u0026 Co., and other British consortiums petitioned Peng Modai.

After some thought, Peng Modai agreed to their plan.

That night, Raul, Peng Modai's administrative secretary, held a press conference.

He said that the Governor of Hong Kong would conduct a comprehensive assessment of the entire Saigon development plan.

The major consortiums had to prepare their plans again, and the final winner would be determined at the last meeting.

After Raul, Peng Modai's administrative secretary, announced to the press that he would re-evaluate the entire Saigon development plan.

Batistuta, Schmidt and Li Bancheng celebrated and opened champagne together!

None of the three of them thought that Peng Modai would agree so easily.

And he gave the key bidding information.

According to the tips given by Peng Modai, they started to make a new plan overnight.

Peng Modai's operation was equivalent to directly putting Tianyao Group on the opposite side of the Hong Kong Governor's Office.

At the same time, it also expressed to the entire Hong Kong Island that the Hong Kong Governor's Office absolutely supported the alliance formed by Jardine Matheson, Swire, and Cheung Kong Industries.

...

After the TV broadcast, Lin Yao's phone kept ringing.

In the office, Lin Yao was leisurely sipping Keemun black tea, smoking Cuban cigars, and watching TV.

He had already had a bottom line in his mind two hours ago.

Because whether Li Bancheng was with Batistuta or Schmidt, he knew all the conversations in advance.

But Bao Chuanwang and Qiu Taishan didn't know, so they called immediately.

"Mr. Lin, it seems that Peng Modai has lost his face this time. Do you have any countermeasures?" Bao Chuanwang asked.

"Thank you Mr. Bao for your concern. If they want to open champagne now, it's too early."

Lin Yao said with a smile and stopped.

The boat charter king also understood what Lin Yao meant.

He learned that Lin Yao already had a plan to deal with it.

But he really didn't know how Lin Yao would fight against Peng Modai and Jardine Matheson Bank, Taikoo and Li Bancheng's moves.

"Mr. Lin, if you need my help, just ask."

"I can definitely help with what I can't, and I will help if I create conditions."

"Thank you, Mr. Bao, but I won't need you for the time being." Lin Yao said with a smile.

As for Qiu Taishan, Lin Yao didn't reveal more to him.

Because Qiu Taishan is not very cunning now, if he reveals key information on his side, it will be bad.

"Brother Yao, what should we do next?"

In the office, Wang Jianguo asked.

"Jianguo, everything goes according to plan!"

"Yes, Brother Yao!"

After Wang Jianguo left, Lin Yao called Lei Yingdong.

The two chatted for half an hour before Lin Yao hung up the phone with a smile.

…

Three days later, the last Saigon bidding meeting.

Johnson, the Chief Secretary for Administration of the Colonial Government, walked into the meeting room of the City Hall with a large number of people.

First, he introduced the news that Jardine Matheson, Swire \u0026 Co., Cheung Kong, and Chiu Kei Properties had re-formed a bidding group.

Then he began to evaluate the overall results of the development of Sai Kung.

And announced that to obtain this bid, it must meet the new evaluation results, otherwise it will not be awarded.

As soon as the voice fell, the whole audience was stunned!

Obviously, this was tailor-made by the Hong Kong British government for the British-funded group.

This is not partiality, it is completely black-box operation and insider trading.

The reporters immediately cast their eyes on Lin Yao, who was sitting in the first row.

Lin Yao was wearing a luxury suit today, holding a Cuban cigar in his hand and looking calm, as if he was attending a charity banquet.

He was accompanied by two hot female secretaries.

It was Yi Xuefei and Yun Piaopiao.

The reporters were very surprised by Lin Yao's calmness.

Several reporters whispered to each other, did Mr. Lin know that there would be such a result today?

How could someone like him who never admits defeat be so calm?

Or did he just give up?

Because after the four groups merged into one, only two consortiums were left to participate in the bidding.

One was headed by Jardine Matheson Bank, and the other was Lin Yao's Tianyao Group.

At this moment, Batistuta, Schmidt, and Li Bancheng all looked at Lin Yao with a playful look.

In their eyes, Lin Yao had already lost.

Johnson originally thought that Lin Yao would strongly object on the spot.

But he saw that Lin Yao was surprisingly calm.

This gave him an uneasy premonition.

Because he knew that Lin Yao was not the kind of person who would be slaughtered at will.

However, Lin Yao did not protest at all.

There was no discovery inside or outside the stadium. Did the social group come to make trouble?

For this reason, the Police Department also prepared 5,000 police officers to be on standby at any time, which was specially approved by the Governor of Hong Kong, Pang Modai.

After careful consideration, Johnson felt that this time Lin Yao must have known that the situation was over and admitted defeat.

This is good, saving a lot of trouble.

Johnson looked at Lin Yao meaningfully, and then announced that the Jardine Matheson Group would read out its new plan first.

Batistuta did not go on stage himself, but asked Li Bancheng to speak.

Li Bancheng showed his signature smile.

He walked slowly to the front desk, picked up the new plan that had been prepared long ago, and talked about it.

Because the information provided by the Hong Kong British government was obtained in advance.

So this time the bidding plan was written very concisely, and Li Bancheng finished speaking in 10 minutes.

Johnson stood up and said: "Now that Jardine Matheson has finished reporting, please ask Tianyao Group to report their plan."

At this time, several foreign policemen hurried into the venue.

One of them was Lawrence, Deputy Commissioner of Police.

Lawrence walked up to Johnson and whispered a few words in his ear.

The next moment, Johnson's face suddenly changed! !

After seeing this scene, the reporters at the scene immediately pressed various shutter buttons.

Johnson's bitter face will definitely appear in tonight's news reports. (End of this chapter)
