Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

After Bao Zixuan finished speaking, many reporters still didn't react. There was too much material today. It must be too much to digest in one moment, from clarifying accidental injuries, scandals, and rumors of discord; to banning Sing Tao Daily; and now Heiyun has directly completed the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa Company without revealing any information. Is today April Fool’s Day? But there were two big bosses sitting on the stage, so it was impossible for them to make this joke.

When Pu Weishi saw this, he said: "Next is the reporter's question time. Everyone has only one question. I hope everyone thinks carefully before asking."

After Puwais finished speaking, many reporters raised their hands, and Puwais gestured to a beautiful reporter to ask questions. At this time, beautiful women always have the advantage.

The beautiful reporter said: "Hello, Mr. Shen Bi, I am a reporter from Ta Kung Pao. I would like to ask if HSBC has the right to interfere with press freedom by blocking Sing Tao Daily."

Shen Bi: "The so-called freedom of the press is based on truth. It is what is really happening around us. It is not just making up random things like writing novels. We at HSBC always welcome news media that report truthfully. Thank you for this. Don’t worry, Ta Kung Pao’s reports are much more objective. We make mistakes and we admit them. But no media will be allowed to become famous by reporting that something did not happen at HSBC. That is the enemy of HSBC.”

Purvais then pointed to a middle-aged male reporter, who is quite qualified as the host of today's press conference.

The middle-aged male reporter said: "Hello, you two, I am a reporter from Oriental Daily. I would like to ask Mr. Bao Zixuan, what do you think about Buck-toothed Zhang having his hands and feet broken in the detention center?"

This is how the two horses are diverting the public's attention and letting everyone see. Bao Zixuan, like our club members, also uses violence to solve problems. Don't think too much of him, and don't let the public be deceived by him.

Bao Zixuan smiled and said: "I know about your question. But I don't have any opinion. If a person enters the prison and his hands and feet are interrupted, you should ask the prison guard and his fellow inmates. What do you think of someone outside? It’s not a bit ridiculous, so my answer is no opinion.”

The Oriental Daily reporter went on to say: "Many people say it was done by people from the Bao Sheng faction. Why don't you explain it!"

Bao Zixuan: "It's ridiculous that you said I asked someone to do it. If a member of a society has his hands and feet broken in a detention center, he should look for the cause himself. It's hard to say that it was because of a conflict with me. If I asked someone to do it, I wouldn't I just broke my hands and feet. Is this obviously a club member seeking revenge? You shouldn't ask me about this matter. You should go back and ask your boss Ma. Shuangma is much more experienced than me. They must have experienced a lot of these things, so You asked the wrong person again."

After Bao Zixuan finished speaking, all the reporters laughed. After all, the foundation of the two horses is not clean, and it is not that easy to divert attention now.

The reporter from Oriental Daily blushed when he heard this. Their boss was not from a very good background. It can be said that everyone in Xiangjiang knows this, but few dare to say it directly like Bao Zixuan. After all, Shuangma has considerable influence on Xiangjiang Road at this time, so there is no need to offend him.

A young female reporter said: "Hello, Mr. Shen Bi. I would like to ask you why you blocked Sing Tao Daily. Is there any intention of revenge?"

Shen Bi: "It's not about banning. Customers can make their own choices. HSBC is a bank, engaged in the financial industry. Sing Tao Daily is engaged in the media industry. The two are not related at all, how could we ban them. As for your intention to retaliate, That is even more nonsense. HSBC just doesn’t recognize the values ​​of Sing Tao Newspaper. Isn’t this wrong?”

Hu Xian was very angry when he heard this. The two of you are working together and are still talking so high-sounding. Do you really think that I, Hu Xian, am easy to bully? Just wait for me. Sooner or later you will regret it.

Hu Xian thought that if you don't make it easy for me, I won't make you feel comfortable either.

Hu Xian stood up without saying hello to anyone and said: "Mr. Shen Bi, I would like to ask why HSBC sold Hutchison Whampoa shares to Black Cloud Group. Is it for compensation? Otherwise, why is it lower than the market price! Are there any illegal operations here, or are there any ulterior secrets?"

Shen Bi thought that Hu Xian was really anxious now and had already gone into battle in person. Since you want to play, I will play with you to the end. Let you see what happens if you offend HSBC.

Shen Bi smiled and said: "Although Ms. Hu Xian was not called, since you asked the question, I can answer it today, but no HSBC employee will be allowed to be interviewed by Sing Tao Daily in the future, including me."

"I can tell you responsibly that there are no illegal operations. The transactions between HSBC and Heiyun are completely fair, just and open; we are both responsible companies. As for the compensation you said does not exist, HSBC's profit this time exceeded 800 million Hong Kong dollars. Tell me who is compensating whom."

"Some people will say that the price is lower than the market price. Then tell me, who in Hong Kong can buy so many Hutchison Whampoa shares at once. According to the banking law, HSBC must sell after the company makes profits. During the period of trusteeship and bailout The purchased company shares. If the shares are not sold at once, they will be sold in large quantities on the market. At that time, the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa will fall. If it causes a chain reaction, it will even affect the entire Hong Kong stock market."

"As a responsible and well-known company in Hong Kong, HSBC will not let this happen, and we only earn reasonable profits. This has always been the business philosophy of HSBC. The most important thing is that I am very impressed by Mr. Bao Zixuan's strength and management capabilities. Don’t worry, this can be regarded as finding an excellent leader for Hutchison Whampoa. This allows this century-old company to radiate vitality again.”

This is Bao Zixuan's intention. If you don't make any noise after being injured, then others will really think that you are easy to bully, and anyone can step on you. In the end, it is not as simple as being injured.

Although everyone knows that this is a compensation transaction, the parties involved just don't admit that you have anything to do. Many reporters are already wondering whether to buy Hutchison Whampoa shares immediately. After all, the company will definitely develop rapidly after Heiyun Group takes control.

A beautiful reporter asked: "Mr. Bao, I would like to ask you and Ms. Chen Yulian how far they have developed. Many people saw you having dinner together after you came out of the hospital. And it was you who sent her back to the dormitory. What will happen in the future?" There are no ideas and opportunities for further development.”

Bao Zixuan: "I want to reiterate, it was the first time we met at HSBC that day. As for you talking about eating together, a girl accompanied me to the hospital, so I have to express it no matter what. This is the most basic polite matter, that is That day was the hospital you went to with me, and I will also invite you to dinner. As for what you said about the future, I really haven’t thought about it. My current task is to let the employees who follow me live a happy life. As for personal issues, I still I haven’t considered it, but I will boldly pursue it if I meet the right person.”

A male reporter asked: "Sheng Bao, after the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa, will you treat the employees of the two companies the same as Heiyun Group? As far as I know, the employee benefits of Heiyun Group are among the best in the industry, but Heiyun is, after all, A high-tech enterprise has sufficient profits. However, Hutchison Whampoa is a traditional industry. Can the profits support such welfare benefits? What if other shareholders disagree? Have you ever thought about this problem?"

Bao Zixuan: "The welfare benefits will definitely be on par with black clouds. Since I control the company, I have to work together. If the profit is not so high, I will find a way to expand new business. If it doesn't work, I will make less. This is not a problem. If that shareholder is If you don't agree, just quit. Even if all shareholders quit, I won't object to privatizing Hutchison Whampoa."

I heard that Bao Zixuan intends to privatize Hutchison Whampoa Company. How much courage and financial resources this shows. It seems that things are about to change in Xiangjiang.
