Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

It has been a week since I returned to Xiangjiang. During this period, except for going to the company, I just stayed at home. My wife and children have not been with me for so many days. It would be really unreasonable if we were in Xiangjiang and not home. At the same time, he also knew that after two months, his mother and he would be away for a while.

The most important thing is that the time of return is still uncertain, so I can't make my wife sad at home. As a father, it is natural to accompany his daughter.

However, this peaceful life was soon broken. When Bao Zixuan came back, Shen Bi actually summoned the bankers for a meeting; the other bosses were there, so it would not be appropriate for their subordinates to attend. If it was Shen Bi, Bao Zixuan really didn't want to pay attention to him. But Governor Yoder had already decided to attend, and the Governor's Office also called him specifically.

If you don't give him any face, it obviously can't be justified. The main body of the Heiyun Group is still in Xiangjiang, so many things cannot be done too casually. And there is no need to offend people over trivial matters, as that is obviously not worth the gain.

The banking industry in Hong Kong will hold a summit, mainly in the recent period; competition among banks is very fierce, which makes HSBC and Standard Chartered Bank somewhat overwhelmed. After all, Hong Kong is managed by the British now, and the interests of British capital must be safeguarded. Therefore, I want to summon the banking industry bosses for a meeting. The purpose is very obvious. I hope everyone will compete fairly and not maliciously slander their opponents.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is deliberately suppressing Chinese banks and giving British banks room to survive. It's just that if you can't tell it directly, it will make everyone look bad. If you can't compete, you can only think of other ways. You can't just wait to die. The British can do everything, but many people have not been exposed to it.

Still at the Peninsula Hotel, it is very famous in itself; and because Bao Zixuan often comes here, it becomes even more famous. After all, Mr. Bao has basically never been to other places besides discussing business here. The same is true for the Governor, except for the Governor's Palace, the rest is also here. After all, this is a banking industry summit, held at the Governor's Mansion; but it is unknown.

The arrival of Bao Zixuan made Michael Kadoorie very happy. I haven’t seen him for so long. On the one hand, the most important thing is that I want to invest in Fucaira. With Bao Zixuan’s ability and his unstinting support, Fucairah will definitely develop into one of the most economically prosperous countries in the world. There may still be a chance now, but if you start late, you may not even be able to drink the soup in the end.

And most importantly, let Bao Zixuan see that the Kadoorie family is definitely interesting. Whenever support is needed, we will spare no effort.

Michael Kadoorie smiled and said: "Sheng Bao, I have been away for more than half a year. You are not in Xiangjiang, and it seems that the whole city feels lonely."

This kid didn't say hello to anyone else. Could it be that he was waiting for him here? It was very possible. But wasn’t he looking for him if he had something to do? The Fucaira Hotel still wants the Kadoorie family to be involved; otherwise, even if it is built and managed by itself, management will be a troublesome matter.

Bao Zixuan smiled and said: "Thank you, Mr. Kadoorie. I am a restless person; I have become accustomed to it over the years. I will go to the Middle East in a while, or we can go together."

This is a direct invitation. If you don't understand it, then you won't do business in the future.

Michael Kadoorie smiled and said: "Of course there is no problem. The Kadoorie family also wants to go to the Middle East to see where there are places worth investing in. And following Bao Sheng, making money is the easiest thing."

The combination of business reputation and personal strength can definitely make people believe. The most important thing is that both partners make money, which is more convincing than anything else.

Bao Zixuan came to the banquet hall and saw that others had already arrived. Everyone has their own circle, chatting together in twos and threes. It can be said that there is a clear distinction between Jingwei and Jingwei. It can also be seen from here that the various groups of Xiangjiang Tycoon are at this moment.

Father-in-law Zhang Yuliang didn't come over, and his poor health was just an excuse; he also wanted to give his eldest son a chance.

Seeing Bao Zixuan coming, Zhang Jianxin walked over immediately. Bao Shaofu really didn't have much contact with this cheap uncle. She was not born to the same mother, and she was part of a large family; she was not as united as she imagined. The most important thing is that Zhang Youran is a smart person. If he married an ordinary person, he might want to take advantage of his natal family.

But now her husband is the richest man in Hong Kong. If she doesn't want to suffer a loss, the best way is to keep distance from her family. And to be honest, apart from her biological mother, the Third Lady, the rest of the Zhang family also had a very average relationship with her.

As strong as a family is, its resources are ultimately limited. Under normal circumstances, Dafang always likes to eat and occupy more due to various relationships; in this case, others will definitely be dissatisfied.

So they look like a family, but the relationship may be better than that of ordinary friends; it may be even worse.

But it's different now. Bao Zixuan is the richest man in Hong Kong. Then Zhang Youran will naturally become the biological sister in the hearts of the Zhang family, even if you don't take advantage; other people will consider this status carefully when dealing with you.

Zhang Jianxin walked up to Bao Zixuan and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, long time no see."

Seeing this cheap uncle, Mr. Bao really didn't know what to say. Zhang Youran has made it clear that he will have as little contact with the Zhang family as possible. But now he is in a public place and must not be seen by outsiders; his relationship with the Zhang family is not as harmonious as imagined.

There is nothing wrong with reaching out and not hitting the smiling person.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "It turns out to be eldest brother! It's been a long time indeed. What have you been busy with recently!"

"I just came back from abroad. Why do I need to have a meeting all of a sudden? Black Cloud Bank has been mainly busy with overseas business recently and has not paid special attention to the development of Hong Kong."

There is nothing wrong with saying that. Everyone knows that Black Cloud Bank has successfully won the markets of Italy, the Soviet Union, and the Middle East; its influence in some countries is definitely greater than that of HSBC. Moreover, the assets of Heiyun Group are too large, and bank management is not Bao Zixuan's strong point. Everyone in Xiangjiang knows that Bao Zixuan likes to be a hands-off shopkeeper, so it is normal not to know what is going on here.

Zhang Jianxin has been in charge of Nanyang Commercial Bank since it was acquired. He is fully aware of any disturbances in Hong Kong's banking industry. After all, there is an old man above him. If he suddenly smells something, it will definitely affect his status in the family.

Although he is the eldest son in the family, there has never been any eldest son inheritance in the Zhang family. Dad is the third eldest son, so why doesn’t he still control the whole family?

Whether you really don’t know or you say it on purpose. Who wants to put his identity somewhere? Even as an uncle, but in front of his brother-in-law, he still has no sense of existence at all.

Zhang Jianxin: "In the past six months, the competition in the Hong Kong banking industry has been very fierce. The suggestion you gave to my father was to vigorously develop the NY market; therefore, the Zhang family has not been affected. After all, we have no direct competition with each other!"

"At present, among the major banks in Hong Kong, only two of us have a large number of branches in Nanyang; therefore, the development is relatively smooth."

"But the local banks in Xiangjiang are not doing so well."

"Especially Zheng's Bank and Bao's Bank, in order to attract deposits, they did everything possible. Not only raising interest rates, they also engaged in various small tricks below. Although Zheng Yutong's reputation was seriously damaged due to what happened some time ago. But even though a camel is so skinny that it is bigger than a horse, there are still people who are willing to believe him.”

"As for the chartered ship king, where does his strength lie? Seeing the high interest rates, depositors only want to take advantage and will not doubt anything else."

"This has caused bank operating costs to skyrocket, deposit interest rates have increased, and loan interest rates will naturally increase accordingly. Some companies are miserable, and it has caused serious losses of customers from banks such as HSBC and Standard Chartered. Shen Bi is not a loser. Of course there will be some action. That's why this summit was held. To use its reputation to formulate a new order for Hong Kong Bank, to put it bluntly, it is to put a layer of shackles on Chinese-owned banks."

"After all, with the same interest rate, Chinese Commercial Bank can make money; but HSBC's own management costs are high, so of course there is no profit."

Hearing this, Bao Zixuan understood what it meant. This is impossible, and we want to use administrative means to suppress it. It seemed that Shen Bi was really driven into a hurry, otherwise he would never have done this.

After all, business matters are best settled in the mall, what does that mean now. If it is not handled well, everyone will not be convinced; in the end, it will only be looked down upon.

It may be that there is really no other way, otherwise Shen Taipan, who has always been arrogant and arrogant, will not use methods that violate business laws even if he is shameless!
