Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

Chapter 648 Threat

Li Weidong pondered for a moment, did not speak, but continued to move forward with a slightly gloomy face, somewhat angry in his heart.

Although the people nearby did not see Li Weidong's face, nor did they have the opportunity to carefully distinguish the subtle changes on his face, they also felt that the hot environment around him seemed to have become a bit colder.

The row of luxury cars in front stopped just in front of Li Weidong. Zhang Hao, who was standing on the roadside, quickly opened the door for Li Weidong.

Zhang Hao is the second in command of the bodyguard team. This time he arrived at Hong Kong Island one day earlier than Li Weidong and his party. The first reason was because Li Weidong's private plane could not accommodate so many people, and the second reason was because he had to come in advance to take charge of security work.

He not only has to pick up Li Weidong, but also handles the security issues at home. This is the division of labor between him and Ding Yuan.

Ding Yuan has been following Li Weidong for a long time and is Li Weidong's personal bodyguard and bodyguard commander, while Zhang Hao is responsible for other chores.

Li Weidong first watched his father and mother get into the car. The children were also guided by the bodyguards brought by Zhang Hao to get into the car, and then he and Liu Jinhui got into the car.

Then the bodyguards also carried the salutes and put them on the corresponding cars, and then got into the co-pilots of several cars one after another, preparing to set off and leave this place of right and wrong.

Zhang Hao knows how terrible the "freedom" in Hong Kong Island is. All kinds of reporters are so pervasive that if he stays a little longer, some reporters will probably follow him.

When the time comes, allocate some manpower to deal with these reporters who are like dog-skin plasters. It will be too passive. They can't be beaten again and again, and they can't be chased away.

Several people watched Li Weidong get into the car and felt relieved, but Li Weidong opened the car window and said to them: "Come home and have a cup of tea!"

"Chairman, you go first and we will arrive soon!" Xu Yandeng and Li Shihui said respectfully.

There weren't many surprises for the few people. Even if Li Weidong didn't say anything, they would have sent the boss to his destination, otherwise there would be no point in greeting him.

Li Weidong nodded, then closed the car window, and a dozen cars quickly drove out of the airport, toward the city, and then took a detour to enter his home in Deep Water Bay.

Sitting in the car, Li Weidong was also guessing what kind of experiences Forbes would explain to him.

He carefully recalled what he had done since his rebirth. He worked part-time as a repairman when he was in a machine factory. This should be considered his first pot of gold, but it was nothing. Even if he wrote a biography, it would probably be a compliment to him.

Have vision.

Then he went to the border of Northeast China to engage in border trade. This was his period of capital accumulation. Although the process was not very legal, it was not illegal. He was just walking on the edge of the law. Besides, he also held a certificate to work.

Later, a stock investor purchased certificates, which was the key to his sudden wealth increase. Within a few months, his wealth increased hundreds of times, which was even more terrifying than buying a lottery ticket.

Perhaps the only thing unclear is how he converted the money into foreign exchange. This was also the first time that his wealth was exposed outside the country.

Of course, if traced, the name on the stock subscription certificates is not his, nor is the bank account number used to pay the money. Who told you that you didn't have a real name on the account at that time!

Current laws cannot be used to judge problems that occurred in the past. This is a blasphemy against the law.

Furthermore, those things have long been over, and the words "with a clear conscience" written by the old man hanging in his office have already explained everything.

You can't just accept the account just because the people are gone. How can you win people's trust? Besides, during this year's aircraft carrier trial, Li Weidong was invited to participate, which shows that the boss acknowledged Li Weidong's account and was grateful.

!

If there is a problem, it can only be said to be the original sin of capital.

As for the next things, they are basically legal and compliant, and well-founded. If I ask him again, I can only say that he is lucky and can hit the mark every time.

He is the chosen one. Whichever stock he buys, that stock will rise; whichever company he invests in, that company will grow explosively and then go public.

What else can we do about this kind of thing besides sighing in private and saying it's bullshit.

The only thing Li Weidong is worried about is what impact it will have in the country if these things are really spread!

He used to be a fart, and he understands the heart of a fart very well. If he wants to praise you, it’s all about his strengths, and if he wants to step down on you, he has all his shortcomings.

Even a small shortcoming will be magnified infinitely. If there are a few more rhythmic ones, they will scold you to death. If you want to clarify, there is no way.

The most amazing thing about the country is that there is a saying that public opinion cannot be violated. When the majority of people who can speak out say that they want to liquidate Li Weidong, it seems that they can represent the public.

They will not think about what Li Weidong has done for this society over the years and how much he has paid. They will think that this is what they should do, and they may even say that they have an uneasy conscience and are spending money to buy peace.

Some people have a relatively simple idea. For example, a company ten years ago was sold for 200 million based on the market price at that time. Ten years later, the company was worth one billion. In the eyes of ordinary people,

, that is a loss of 800 million in assets.

They will not consider that it is the joint efforts of all employees of the company over the past ten years to create the current value. Without this sale, the company may no longer exist.

Therefore, they do not think that what Li Weidong has done to this society over the years and donate money to charity is a contribution. Instead, they think that it is atonement, which is natural.

Because in the eyes of many people, if they also had the funds, they could do these things, even better than Li Weidong.

At this time, Li Weidong could even imagine that if some public figures in China knew that the money he earned from cutting leeks on the stock market was obtained abroad through improper channels, they would definitely punish him with justice.

There will be many applauding audiences below, and they are even happy to see Li Weidong unlucky. After all, when most Chinese people only earn a few hundred yuan in income, you have hundreds of billions of dollars. It is obviously unfair.

Liu Jinhui looked at Li Weidong from the side and asked worriedly: "What happened? You look so serious?"

Li Weidong frowned, but smiled helplessly and said: "It's nothing, it's just that your husband is going to be the richest man in the world!"

"Oh, what's the use of having so much money? I live in fear every day. I have to be surrounded by people when I go out. There is no freedom at all!" Liu Jinhui also sighed and said.

Since Li Weidong's wealth was announced, the security at their home has been strengthened by several levels. Every day when they go out, they are followed by several bodyguards. The key is to always pay attention to their appearance and appearance.

"How about we buy an island, and I will be the owner of the island, and you will be the owner's wife?" Li Weidong asked with bright eyes.

"What are you dreaming about? It's better to be safe at home!" Liu Jinhui shook her head and said. In her opinion, there is a lot of trouble abroad, so there is no way to have national security of her own.

Li Weidong was just talking, and he was really reluctant to let him out. He continued to look at the endless scenery outside the car window, thinking, how could there be such a disgusting thing as Forbes in the world!

Why should my own wealth be pointed at by you? Where do you have the qualifications to rank me? Li Weidong hated it in his heart!

From the airport to Li Weidong's home, taking the land route takes a longer route than taking the water route. There are many cars on the road, and walking is not very fast. It took more than an hour to get back to the villa.

After the car stopped, before Li Weidong got out of the car, several children in the car behind him had already run out, searching for their past memories.

Knowing that a lot of people were going to live in the house, and the number of nannies had also increased a lot, under Shen Yueying's instructions, he moved the rituals to the corresponding rooms one by one, and arranged these, Shen Yueying was familiar with it!

Li Weidong took Li Shihui and Xu Yan upstairs. Luo Jialiang thought for a while and found that he seemed not qualified to participate in the discussion of this matter.

Luo Jialiang is very self-aware, and it is through this self-knowledge that he can reach his current position.

It seems that he has no reference point for the matter they are discussing now, and he has no strength to contribute. He can't make up his mind, and he can't contribute any effort. Why is he still trying to get better?

Wouldn't that make you feel uncomfortable?

Why not chat with the old man and see if there is anything he can do to run errands? After all, this is the basis for his fortune!

He only had the opportunity to take charge of such a large group by working for Li Weidong for half a year.

Ding Yuan knew that his boss had something important to discuss, so he made an exception and went up to the second floor and sat in the living room outside Li Weidong's study. Even the nanny who brought tea and water was driven down by him and he brought it in himself.

"If they want to announce my assets, don't they need to confirm with me in advance?" Li Weidong asked calmly.

Li Shihui and Xu Yanden glanced at each other, and finally Li Shihui said: "Chairman, according to their explanation, these data are obtained from public channels!"

"In their understanding, the source of their data is from public channels, and based on their accumulated experience, they sort out, screen and analyze the public data to get the results!"

"So in principle, these data do not involve personal privacy, so there is no need to communicate with the parties individually. On the contrary, they believe that communicating with the parties may have a negative impact on their results!"

Xu Yandeng took over and said: "Actually, many wealthy people hope that they will be on the list, and the higher the ranking, the better. This will be beneficial to the reputation of themselves and the company, and will help capital operations such as various financing loans."

"So if you come into contact with them, they will falsely report their wealth to achieve certain purposes. After all, the Forbes ranking is still very authoritative!"

"I don't think it necessarily has much authority!" Li Weidong said with a sarcastic smile.

Xu Yanden knew that he had said the wrong thing again, and his face was a little unnatural. Li Shihui came to the rescue and said: "It's only relative when it comes to authority. It would be good to have an accuracy of 60 to 70%!"

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore!" Li Weidong waved his hand, and then continued, "Is the person you know reliable? Is the news true?"

Xu Yanden said: "It's almost the same. He has a deep personal relationship with a senior executive from Forbes. He mentioned the large amount of funds that appeared in HSBC Bank in 1992, and even asked people to investigate these funds.

origin of!"

Li Weidong frowned, with a bit of anger on his face. This was what he was most worried about. If someone investigated this matter, it would break his bottom line even more.

He was not afraid that someone would come to find him. After all, this matter was not a secret among the senior officials. It was something that was recognized by the elders. Li Weidong did not believe that anyone would overthrow him.

And with Li Weidong's current strength, if you want to do anything to him, you have to think carefully about what uncontrollable things will happen. In the end, there is no need.

What Li Weidong was worried about was just that he didn't want to stir up more trouble, causing the common people to get uproar, causing a lot of scolding, and annoying people. Li Weidong didn't want much, he just wanted to continue to keep a low profile.

But now someone seemed to not want him to keep such a low profile. He was naturally angry and asked angrily: "Can I get specific materials?"

If nothing is found through the investigation, it would not be good if he mobilizes a large number of people to cause trouble. There must be some evidence!

Li Shihui said: "It's difficult. They did a good job of keeping it secret before it was released. If it were leaked in advance and their competitors got it, there would definitely be problems!"

"Competitors, do they have any enemies?" Li Weidong asked curiously.

"Of course, for example, the well-known Fortune magazine is his competitor, but their focus is different. Fortune focuses more on the company's ranking!"

"Never mind this, you two will find a way to get the specific information. If there is any fabricated stuff, help me tell the shareholders of Forbes and let them prepare for bankruptcy. I always keep my word!" Li Weidong said categorically.

said.

Li Weidong's words surprised the two of them, but they were not too surprised. It seemed that this matter had touched the boss's side.

They are all old men who have followed Li Weidong for many years. Although they have not personally participated in that incident, they know something about it. They also know how big the credibility risk is and how much trouble it will cause.

As for whether we can get specific information, it seems that it is not that important now. What Li Weidong wants is not this, but a result.

Xu Yandeng has been in the United States for many years, and Li Shihui also knows many financial and business people in the United States. It is not difficult for them to spread this word to the ears of Forbes shareholders.

The two said goodbye and left, and immediately booked a flight to the United States. Judging from Li Weidong's attitude, it had reached a point where they had to take it seriously.

If Forbes really writes a biography of Li Weidong, sorts out Li Weidong's wealth from beginning to end, and publishes it, they don't know what will happen to others, but they will definitely be unlucky!

Li Weidong didn't know what tricks they used, but the final result satisfied him.

Within two days, Forbes issued a public statement: All Forbes data sources are based on published data or information available from public sources.

We also promise that in all previous and future investigations, we will never use methods that are inconsistent with local laws, violate social ethics, or pry into other people's privacy!

This is only public content, but privately, Li Weidong also received a letter from the president of Forbes. The letter first expressed his respect for Li Weidong, and then stated that he had never meant to offend Chairman Li. If it had happened before

If there is any misunderstanding, he is willing to express his apology in person!
