Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

After dinner, Lin Baicheng and other men chatted together, and naturally Huo Zhenting, Wu Guanzheng, Guo Kongchen, and Zheng Jiachun followed them.

"Jiahui, are you planning to film and become a star in the future?"

Guan Zhilin was accompanied by Zhu Linlin, which was the main reason why Huo Yingdong temporarily called Zhu Linlin to attend the dinner.

Thanks to Zhu Linlin's careful friendship, Zhu Linlin and Guan Zhilin have begun to treat each other as sisters, as if they have become best friends.

"I didn't think about it."

Guan Zhilin shook his head: "I don't like filming much, and the crew is quite tired from filming. If one day I suddenly feel interested, I will play a role, but I will not regard it as my career."

"You are Mr. Lin's girlfriend now. Whether you film or not is completely up to you."

Zhu Linlin said with a smile that she had now married into a wealthy family and had given birth to the eldest son of the Huo family, so she was not very envious of Guan Zhilin, but she believed that there would be many women in Xiangjiang who envied Guan Zhilin.

Although Lin Baicheng was not born into a wealthy family, with his current assets and career scale, no one dares to say that he is worse than a wealthy family. He himself represents a wealthy family. Guan Zhilin has become Lin Baicheng's girlfriend. If he marries Lin Baicheng in the future, it will be equivalent to marrying into a wealthy family.

"Sister Linlin, do you know, I am preparing to participate in the Miss Asia contest this year."

The reason why Guan Zhilin said this to Zhu Linlin was because Zhu Linlin was the champion of Miss Hong Kong in 1977, and the two had a common topic in this regard.

"Why do you want to participate in the Miss Asia contest? Does Mr. Lin know about this?"

Zhu Linlin was startled when she heard this. Of course she knew that the Miss Asia contest, which had been held for two years, was organized by Asia Television, and Asia Television was Lin Baicheng's property.

Guan Zhilin nodded: "Of course Brother Lin knows."

"Then Mr. Lin has no objection?"

Zhu Linlin asked, although the winner of the beauty pageant has a great reputation and is famous in Hong Kong, for wealthy families, this is actually not a good reputation. Instead, the wealthy families have a grudge about it and feel that women who participate in beauty pageants are judged. It is detrimental to her reputation, she has realized this now.

After hearing this, Guan Zhilin said: "No, Brother Lin, why would he object? He also asked me to learn talent, saying that I might be able to win the championship by then."

"With your talent and beauty, Jiahui, the champion will definitely be yours."

Zhu Linlin immediately said that although she didn't know what Guan Zhilin's talent was, she was sure of Guan Zhilin's beauty. In addition, Lin Baicheng was the boss behind the beauty pageant. Whether Guan Zhilin could win the championship was not a matter of Lin Baicheng's word.

"Thank you, Sister Linlin."

Hearing Zhu Linlin say this, Guan Zhilin was very happy.

Zhu Linlin said: "Jiahui, what are your hobbies? If we have time, we can play together. You don't know, I don't have many friends at all."

"OK."

Guan Zhilin didn't have many friends, so he agreed without thinking. "In order to participate in the beauty pageant, I am currently practicing singing and dancing, but I usually like to go shopping, watch movies, and play tennis."

"I also like dancing, and I prefer playing badminton. Let's play together when we have time."

Zhu Linlin said happily that although Huo Zhenting asked her to deliberately make friends with Guan Zhilin and be friends with Guan Zhilin, how can the friends she deliberately made compare with friends who share common interests. She did lack friends, especially after she married into a wealthy family. She really hoped that she could have some friends with whom she could chat and play.

"OK."

Guan Zhilin agreed with a smile.

Looking at where Lin Baicheng and others were chatting, Zhu Linlin couldn't help but ask: "Jiahui, will Mr. Lin often accompany you to play?"

Guan Zhilin nodded: "Yes, as long as Brother Lin is in Xiangjiang, he will often take time to play with me."

"Mr. Lin is so kind to you!"

Zhu Linlin couldn't help but feel a little envious after hearing this.

After marrying Huo Zhenting, Zhu Linlin discovered that it was not easy to get into a wealthy family. The Huo family's family rules were very strict for women and did not allow them to be exposed easily. This made it difficult for her to accept such restrictions at a young age.

Not to mention, after getting married, Zhu Linlin discovered that she and Huo Zhenting had many differences. In addition, Huo Zhenting liked to socialize and socialize, and rarely had time to spend with her, let alone take time out to play outside with her. .

Comparing Lin Baicheng and Huo Zhenting, not to mention the age gap and appearance difference between the two, nor the difference between one being a founding generation and the other being a rich second generation, Lin Baicheng, who has a bigger career, can often find time to play with Guan Zhilin This point compared Huo Zhenting to Zhu Linlin with envy.

In fact, Zhu Linlin didn't even think about it. Huo Zhenting was not the only son in the Huo family. Huo Zhenting also had two younger brothers. Moreover, these two younger brothers were not playboys. They were all young talents with academic success. If Huo Zhenting If his mediocre performance fails to satisfy his father, Huo Yingdong, he may not necessarily inherit the Huo family.

It is true that Huo Zhenting is Huo Yingdong's eldest son, but if Huo Zhenting is not capable, I think Huo Yingdong is likely to let the more capable second or third son inherit the family business, and only give the eldest son a part of the assets to ensure that the eldest son has enough food and clothing for his whole life.

And Huo Zhenting obviously couldn't accept such a result, so he couldn't get caught up in the love between his son and his daughter. Instead, he had to put his career first and make his father satisfied with him and even proud of him.

"Brother Lin is the best to me!"

Guan Zhilin looked at Lin Baicheng, who was chatting with Huo Yingdong and others. She was just 18 years old this year, so she didn't think too much. Lin Baicheng's generosity to her made her not worry about money, and his daily love made her feel very happy.

While Lin Baicheng and others were chatting, Huo Zhenting and the other four juniors did not interrupt, but just listened. Although they are older than Lin Baicheng, Lin Baicheng is now on the same level as their elders, and they can only accompany him.

"By the way, Lin Sheng, what are you going to do with Hong Kong Electric Group? Now that Yingyao Company is the major shareholder of Hong Kong Electric Group, it is eyeing the company's control. You can't reduce your shares at all, and if Yingyao Company is right If it interferes with the daily management of Hong Kong Electric, it would be a bit troublesome."

Bao Yugang said with concern that he felt that Lin Baicheng had sunk too much money into Hong Kong Electric Group and it was too wasteful. With so much capital, if there were no British capital, part of it could be used to make other investments and start a business, instead of being stuck in Hong Kong Electric Group as it is now.

"Where's Hong Kong Electric?"

Lin Baicheng pretended to be helpless: "You all know that the British capital wants to take away the HK Electric Group from me. Of course I will not let the British capital get their way, and I am not even ready to let the British capital withdraw completely. The HK Electric Group will increase its capital Expanding shares is what I prepared for British capital.”

Hu Yinxiang said: "The British capital has also subscribed. It seems that the British capital is not ready to back down easily."

"If the British capital doesn't back down, then I will pay the British capital and have fun."

Lin Baicheng smiled and said to several people: "After Hong Kong Electric Group has spent all the funds for capital increase and share expansion, I will find time to increase capital and share capital again and force the British capital to take money to follow the investment, otherwise I will wait for the shares to be diluted. .If the British capital chooses to have its shares diluted, I can easily suppress the British capital's shareholding ratio by increasing capital and expanding the shares a few more times."

Li Zhaoji said pertinently: "As long as British capital is not stupid, they will not accept the continuous dilution of their shares in Hong Kong Electric Group by you, Lin Sheng."

Guo Henian said: "Young capital can either choose to fight you to the end, Lin Sheng, or you can choose to bow to you, Lin Sheng."

Zheng Yudong said: "Although the British capital may bow its head and admit defeat, it is also possible to continue fighting with Lin Sheng. After all, Lin Sheng, you hold more shares in Hong Kong Electric Group. If you increase capital and expand shares, Lin Sheng, you have to If you spend more money, if HK Electric Group does not develop well, Lin Sheng, you will suffer greater losses."

Bao Yugang reminded: "Don't forget, the British capital is the joint effort of the four major families. We have calculated it based on an average of one quarter of each family. The losses of each of their families will only be smaller, so they have the same relationship with Lin I have the confidence and determination to continue fighting.”

"Bao Sheng is right. Compared with Lin Sheng's losses, the losses of each British-owned family will be less, and their confidence will be greater." Guo Henian nodded in agreement.

Huo Yingdong said to Lin Baicheng: "Lin Sheng, if you do what you just said, both you and Yingzi will lose, and your losses will be even greater. I think you need to think about it again."

"Actually, I know everything you said and have considered it. However, I finally decided to combat the arrogance of the British capital. If I don't learn a lesson this time, who knows if they will trouble me in the future. I don't want each other to do so. Businesses are in trouble.”

Lin Baicheng shook his head. The investment profit from gold futures was his greatest confidence. The profit of at least 30 billion Hong Kong dollars gave him the confidence to spend a few billion Hong Kong dollars to play with British capital, giving the British capital a profound impression. lesson.

It can be said that Lin Baicheng is using his talents to hurt others and using his abundant capital to teach British talents how to behave.

What's more, the money is not taken out all at once. After this capital increase and share expansion, the next capital increase and share expansion will take at least a year.

"Lin Sheng is right to consider this, but the price is too high."

Bao Yugang couldn't help but think that if this matter were placed on him, he would be more inclined to show his fists and then reconcile. After all, continuing to fight would do more harm than good.

Huo Yingdong warned: "Lin Sheng, if you do this, you should be careful that the other party can't afford it, and ask the Hong Kong government and even Downing Street to help distract you."

"I'm not worried about the Hong Kong government. It's just that Downing Street is in some trouble."

Lin Baicheng's connections in the Hong Kong government don't have to worry about him being targeted. However, he currently has no influence on Downing Street in London, and he is unwilling to get too close to Downing Street when Hong Kong is about to return. Otherwise, with his current capital, he will not be able to get too close to Downing Street. There is no problem in 'getting acquainted' with some important people in the street.

Before Hong Kong's return is confirmed, Lin Baicheng will not get too close to Downing Street. Otherwise, before China and Britain start negotiations on Xiangjiang, when Chinese businessmen need to take sides, Lin Baicheng, who is taking sides on both sides, will not be human inside and out, so he must make a choice. .

"Lin Sheng, after all, Britain still has the final say in Xiangjiang, so if Downing Street takes action, you should keep your head down, don't try to be the first to take the lead."

Huo Yingdong reminded him aloud that he was afraid that Lin Baicheng was young and energetic. After achieving great achievements, he would not take the UK seriously and try to compete with the UK. This would definitely not be good for Lin Baicheng. He himself was the best example.

As a red capitalist, Huo Yingdong certainly hopes that Lin Baicheng will also become a red capitalist, so that their power can be stronger. However, Lin Baicheng helped him make a fortune several times. He had no reason to instigate Lin Baicheng to follow his old path, which resulted in the companies under his name being continuously suppressed by the Hong Kong government.

Bao Yugang agreed: "Brother Huo is right, we are just businessmen and our strength is limited."

"Thank you Huo Sheng for the reminder. Don't worry, I'm not stupid. I won't bring trouble to myself."

Lin Baicheng smiled and nodded to express his understanding. He was not so arrogant that he thought he could compete with Britain. That would be courting death.

"It's good that Lin Sheng knows what's going on."

Huo Yingdong nodded without saying anything more, and then said: "However, the British will not be able to dominate for long. The country is determined to regain Hong Kong. As the time for Hong Kong's return is getting closer, I believe that China and Britain will be able to fight each other soon. Negotiations have begun on Xiangjiang’s return.”

"I'm afraid that the British are not willing to give up Xiangjiang easily. If a conflict breaks out between the two sides, it will be scary to think about it."

Li Zhaoji shook his head solemnly. He was born before World War II. Although he came to Xiangjiang after World War II, the country was not peaceful at that time. It could even be said to be even worse. Therefore, he had experienced the baptism of the war years and he knew the consequences of war. fear.

"Who doesn't worry about this?"

Zheng Yudong echoed with emotion. China has now stood up. Britain is an old empire and has the support of countries in the Western camp. No one is afraid of anyone. Therefore, in Xiangjiang, a war between the two sides is really possible. This is why many people A place of fear.

If a war really breaks out, in fact, based on the wealth of everyone present, whether they are running to the mainland or overseas, they can leave before the war breaks out. But the problem is that people leave their hometowns and their careers are in Hong Kong. Leaving Hong Kong will inevitably be harmful to them. Their family's business was dealt a huge blow.

"I think there is no need for everyone to worry about this now. Britain is not the United States. It no longer has the strength to fight a war with China. What's more, Western countries now need to win over China and prevent China from getting closer to Hongsu. So in the end, Britain Will give in."

Lin Baicheng spoke out his judgment. These were his own thoughts. Before his rebirth, he was just an ordinary person, and he would not understand the reasons behind Xiangjiang's return forty or fifty years ago. That is, after living in this era, I deduce the reasons through the results, and I came up with these points.

The decline of British power and the need for Western countries led by the United States to win over China and curb the expansion of Hongsu should be the main reasons.

To be honest, if it was not the United Kingdom that colonized Hong Kong but the United States, then there is a question mark as to whether China would start to take back Xiangjiang during this period, and whether it could take back Xiangjiang.

Regarding Lin Baicheng's judgment, Huo Yingdong was more inclined, while others were not so convinced. After all, Britain still seems to be a world power on the surface, but China is not that strong economically, so it is not that easy to get Britain to make concessions.

Everyone was just chatting, not defending, so no one refuted.

After that, everyone chatted about other things, including business chat.
