Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

"Today I am honored to be able to participate in the reception of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, and to recognize the outstanding Chinese heroes who shine in a foreign country."

"Chairman Wu mentioned just now that the assets of members of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce have exceeded 30 billion pounds. This figure shocked me."

"I was thinking at the time that if all the elites of our Chinese Chamber of Commerce can unite and cooperate with each other to compete with major British companies, they will definitely be able to win!"

"Maybe some bosses have business dealings with Xiangjiang and have learned some of my information. Then they should know that British-owned enterprises headed by the four major consortiums such as the Jardine Consortium and the Taikoo Consortium, relying on the advantages of policies, are rampant in Xiangjiang, but When our Chinese capital united, the most powerful Jardine Consortium was dismembered."

"Today, the overall strength of your chamber of commerce has surpassed ours at that time. Although the strength of the major British consortiums is also far greater than that of the Jardine Consortium, I believe that my descendants of Yan and Huang will not lose to anyone in terms of hard work and intelligence!"

...

"Here I sincerely wish that the Chinese Business Association is developing with each passing day, and the business of all the bosses in the business is booming! All the best!"

"thanks!"

"Clap clap clap..."

After the concise speech was finished, Xia Yu bowed to the bottom, and then walked off the podium with fierce applause.

Xia Yu's remarks and the information he revealed shocked many people present and thought.

In particular, Wu Chengde and Wu Hongyi's grandfathers and grandchildren thought secretly.

After a series of processes ended, the reception had its own social time, and Xia Yu suddenly became one of the stars of the reception. A steady stream of people came to exchange knowledge with Xia Yu. Had a great chat.

Before he knew it, he found that his pocket was full of business cards.

Of course, Xia Yu had to make full use of such a great platform with strong connections. There were no other important things anyway, so he persisted until the end of the show.

Just as he was about to leave, Wu Hongyi came over again and whispered to him, "Xia Yu, please wait a moment, my grandfather wants to chat with you."

"Oh well!"

Xia Yu was a little curious, and followed Wu Hongyi into a room, and found Wu Chengde and his housekeeper sitting inside with a tired face.

Seeing Xia Yu coming in, Wu Chengde was refreshed and stood up to welcome Xia Yu.

But seeing that Wu Chengde was a little unsteady and obviously unwell, Xia Yu didn't hold any air, walked over quickly, and shook hands with Wu Chengde: "Mr. Wu, sit down!"

"Xia Yu, my grandfather is in poor health, so please forgive me!"

Wu Hongyi explained on the side.

"It's okay, I understand, the body is important!"

Xia Yu said quickly, and sat down with Wu Hongyi.

"Mr. Xia, I asked Hongyi to ask you to stay, mainly because there is something I want to ask you."

Wu Chengde smiled gratefully, cheered up and said to Xia Yu.

"Speaking!"

"I want to ask you, are you interested in joining the Chinese Chamber of Commerce? I can be your recommender. I believe that everyone knows about you today.

You'll definitely be welcome to join with both hands up, now it's mostly up to you. "

After Wu Chengde finished speaking, he looked at Xia Yu with burning eyes.

Xia Yu was very surprised, but his heart was moved. He asked back: "I am a businessman from Xiangjiang, can I join the British Chinese Business Association?"

Before Wu Chengde said it, Wu Hongyi replied: "Xia Yu, the entry standard of the Chinese Business Association is to do business in the UK, your Bright Fund is a British company, and you are the second shareholder of Huashang Bank, if you Not qualified, who is qualified?"

"You join, it should help you a little!"

Xia Yu looked at Wu Hongyi, and then at Wu Chengde, who was looking forward to it, and nodded with a smile: "Then I'll be disrespectful, Mr. Wu, I'm going to trouble you!"

Thinking of his previous idea about the British Chinese-funded consortium, Xia Yu certainly would not refuse such a good opportunity. Entering the Chinese Business Association is their own person, and many things are less restrictive, which is very beneficial to him.

"No trouble, no trouble, with your participation, the strength of the Chinese Business Association will be improved to a higher level. Speaking of which, it is an honor for all of us!"

Wu Chengde laughed heartily, happy for Xia Yu's promise.

"Mr. Xia, I have to trouble you to wait a few days. Then I will prepare the membership procedure, and I will have to wait for you for some time."

"Yes, just notify me when the time comes. As long as there are no emergencies, it will definitely arrive!"

...

After a few polite words, Xia Yu saw that there were no outsiders except the grandson of the Wu family and the housekeeper of the Wu family. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that he could put forward his ideas and test the attitude of the Wu family.

"Master Wu, take the liberty to ask, is it difficult for our Chinese businessmen to do business in the UK?"

Xia Yu asked.

Wu Chengde's old brows twitched, but he didn't hide it: "It's really big, no matter how hard we Chinese try to integrate into British society, but because of the difference in skin color, we are still resisted and suppressed overtly and secretly, like some important industries, such as mining. , oil, heavy industry, public utilities and other industries, let’s not talk about whether there is strength to enter, even if you step in, you will still be squeezed out.”

"Although the total assets of the members of the British Chinese Entrepreneurs Association have reached 30 billion pounds, they are basically limited to retail, catering, small real estate, service industry, trade industry, finance and other fields, and there is a lot of internal competition pressure. Hey... …”

After Xia Yu heard this, his heart was as expected, and then an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "Then Mr. Wu, it seems that what I said before is right, now the most important thing for the Chinese Business Association is to twist all the members into a rope, Eliminate internal friction as much as possible, and focus on developing new fields, otherwise these industries will be restricted, the market will be so big, and the competition will be like that, and it will be difficult to become a big climate!"

Wu Chengde heard what Xia Yu meant, his eyes became very sharp, he looked straight at Xia Yu, and said solemnly, "Mr. Xia, what's your opinion?"

"Mr. Wu, I just went to the island country not long ago and learned something. Personally, I feel that the consortium model of the island country has great advantages. Many times, companies in Europe and the United States that can be suppressed in a certain field can't breathe. The capital consortium has already taken shape, with the China Merchants Association and the China Merchants Bank."

"As long as the Chinese Entrepreneurs Association is fully utilized and the sole core position of the Flower Merchant Bank is established, it is possible to unite the powerful Chinese businessmen in the UK and establish the only Chinese business consortium in the UK and only in Europe."

"At that time, you will be eligible to draw cakes. Even if you don't eat much, you will be eligible, right? It's better than being confined to a small pond with scattered strength."

Xia Yu spoke eloquently, ignoring Wu Chengde's changed face, and looked at him until he finished speaking.

Not to mention Wu Chengde, even Wu Hongyi, who had been sitting beside him, followed Xia Yu's words, his heart thumped wildly and his face flushed.

"I didn't expect Xia Yu to have such an ambition. I don't know if it would be right or wrong to introduce him to a Chinese businessman. Could it be the introduction of a wolf into the house?"

Wu Chengde's thoughts were messy, and he thought about bad things.

Even though he was in his seventies, he was still moved by what Xia Yu said. Of course he knew the power of the six major consortiums in the island country, even if he was dismembered by the United States because of the defeat, but decades later, relying on the system The superiority of the company is still rising rapidly, and it dares to compete with the world's major financial groups internationally.

If according to Xia Yu's statement, the Chinese business consortium is really possible to be established, and it will be so strong that it will not be able to get a share of those lucrative industries.

It's just that Xia Yu mentioned it like this. Obviously, he has this idea, which is somewhat contrary to Wu Chengde's position. He doesn't want British Chinese businessmen to be controlled by Xia Yu. There are many emperors in the Wu family. How can he be willing?

Seeing Wu Chengde's silence, Xia Yu guessed what he was worried about, so he said with a smile: "Mr. Wu, in the British Chinese Business Association, you have the highest prestige, and you are the chairman of the board."

"And the Huashang Bank was founded by Hony's father. Now the Wu family has the most equity. The Wu family is the strongest among the Chinese capital in the UK. If the Huashang consortium is to be established, the Wu family will undoubtedly take the lead, and then the Wu family will naturally be the leader of the alliance. , I believe that the benefits should not be less, it is better than now."

Wu Chengde was still silent, but his deep eyes met Xia Yu's. Xia Yu looked calm and seemed to have a clear conscience.

Looking at his grandson Wu Hongyi, he found that his face was serious, but his trance expression showed that he was shaken by Xia Yu's words.

After a long time, Wu Chengde pointed it out and said: "Mr. Xia, I think it's right to say that you can't afford to do nothing. You so encouraged our Wu family to come forward to set up a Chinese consortium, what do you want?"

Xia Yu looked calm and said bluntly: "Mr. Wu, I agree with what you said, things without interests will not last long, I do have what I want, but it will not lose the interests of the Wu family. The benefits can be said to be a win-win situation!”

"First, in order to establish a consortium of Chinese capital, Huashang Bank must be established as the only core bank of Chinese capital in the UK. As a result, the strength of Huashang Bank will expand rapidly. As the second largest shareholder, of course, I will benefit from it, while the Wu family will benefit from it. As the largest shareholder, I will only benefit more than me."

"Secondly, Hong Kong is too small. I always want to come to the UK to develop, but I need allies with weight. You are right. Our skin color determines that we are naturally resisted. If we want to succeed, we need to work hard. White people are several times or even ten times as large. Not only do British Chinese businessmen need to form a group to compete, but I, an outsider, also need to find someone to form a group to gain a firm foothold. After all, foreigners are unreliable, but to put it bluntly, among the current British Chinese businessmen, including The Wu family, including the Wu family, can give me limited help, Mr. Wu, you should know that cooperation requires equality to last for a long time!"

"Thirdly, Mr. Wu, if you are worried about my idea of ​​hitting the Chinese merchants consortium, then you don't have to. I have my own business. Compared with the scattered Chinese merchants consortium, I prefer my own business and will not rob your Wu family! "

Speaking of which, seeing Wu Chengde's face heavy, but no longer looking at him aggressively, Xia Yu pondered for a moment and spoke again.

"And Mr. Wu, you should also be very clear about the nature of this society. In the final analysis, strength comes first. When you sit in that position, you will face the coveting of countless people, both outside and inside. As long as you have strength, you can be imprisoned. If you are not strong enough, you will eventually be ousted, and you can’t be timid because of the risks that may arise in the future.”

"In any case, the establishment of a Chinese consortium will benefit the Wu family the most. How much you can eat depends on your Wu family's ability."

"Besides, you have to have confidence in Hongyi. In the entire British Chinese-owned enterprises and families, who can surpass him in his peers?"

After speaking, Xia Yu felt that he had already said what he had to say, and the rest was up to Wu Chengde, so he kept his mouth shut and let him think about the pros and cons for himself.

Looking at his watch, Xia Yu stood up and said to Wu Chengde and Wu Hongyi: "Mr. Wu, Hongyi, it's getting late, my girlfriend is still outside waiting for me to go back, I'll go first and talk later when I have time. !"

"Okay, then you go slow!"

"Hongyi, send off Mr. Xia!"

After that, Xia Yu left decisively, and after sending Xia Yu off, Wu Hongyi came back here again.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Wu Hongyi's lips wriggled and wanted to speak, but he was worried about disturbing his grandfather's thinking.

In fact, after listening to Xia Yu's words, Wu Hongyi was really tempted. His reason told him that if Xia Yu's proposal was realized, it would be of great benefit to the Wu family.

Although it is undeniable that Xia Yu will get benefits, and even secretly get other benefits, he believes that it is enough for the Wu family to get benefits, and Xia Yu deserves the benefits for his advice.

At this time, Wu Chengde shook his head slightly, exhaled a long breath, and came back to his senses.

Looking at his grandson Wu Hongyi, Wu Chengde's eyes narrowed slightly, and he noticed that his grandson was tempted.

It's just that Xia Yu's words woke him up. He is old and can't take charge of the Wu family for a long time. In the end, the Wu family will be handed over to Wu Hongyi. And Wu Hongyi is definitely the best among all British Chinese families, but he is not worried that Wu Hongyi will not work.

If the establishment of a Chinese business consortium can be facilitated, whether in terms of strength, prestige, or the identity of the initiator, the Wu family will undoubtedly become the person in charge of the Chinese business consortium, and the benefits the Wu family will receive will be unparalleled.

For example, with the strength of the Wu family, Wu Chengde could not have been able to squeeze into the upper echelons of the UK, but if he came forward as the head of the Chinese business consortium, the people who ignored him before would definitely face him, with equality There are many opportunities for communication, and there are often business opportunities!

However, Wu Chengde still wants to hear his grandson's opinion. After all, the Wu family will eventually be handed over to Wu Hongyi, who is the future head of the Wu family.

"Hongyi, what do you think of Xia Yu's proposal?"

Wu Chengde asked with concern.

Wu Hongyi thought for a while and said calmly, "Grandpa, if we can lead the establishment of a Chinese consortium, our Wu family will definitely get huge benefits, that's for sure."

"I know you're worried that Xia Yu's heart is wrong, and when he arrives, he will occupy the magpie's nest, control the Chinese business consortium, and let our Wu family do things for him."

"But I don't think it's important. I agree with what he said. After all, the world speaks with strength. If our Wu family has no strength, we will continue to sit in that position forcibly, and the virtues will not match. Get kicked off."

"If he has the ability to control the Hua-funded consortium, then he should be controlled by him, because at that time his strength was definitely far more than our Wu family. What if our Wu family did things for him?"

"Instead, I'm worried that without the Chinese business consortium, the strength of the Wu family is not developing fast enough. At that time, they won't even be qualified to be attracted by him. That's a sad thing!"

"In this world, unless we stand at the number one position in the world, there will eventually be someone standing on our head, who will not be stepped on by someone, as long as our strength can grow and stand at a higher level, only the person who steps on our head will be less."

Wu Chengde was shocked by Wu Hongyi's remarks. He stared blankly at his grandson, as if he did not expect this attitude.

For a long time, Wu Chengde laughed: "Okay, I'm still not as good as my grandson. I'll leave the Wu family to you, I'm relieved, haha..."

"Just do as you said, you will come forward, and grandpa will be your backing in the end!"

Wu Hongyi was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily and said, "Grandpa, I won't let you down!"

"I believe my grandson is not bad..."
