It may have been a long delay at Chen Qingwen''s shop. When song TIANYAO took Angie pelis to the Administration Office of the chief secretary''s office and prepared to use this ghost sister lawyer to seduce several top students who lost the election, he found that the interview had ended early. The interviewers had almost left, leaving only two or three depressed and ignored unlucky people, Wearing suits and shoes, but standing on the street depressed.
These are only a few people who failed in the interview and were not picked up by other firms. Even those firms waiting outside the door to pick the losers can''t see it. It can be seen that the qualities of these two or three guys are really poor.
"Let''s go," Angie pelis said to song TIANYAO, "I have something to do."
"Once you come, you can''t go back empty handed." song TIANYAO took out a business card from his pocket and walked towards a man in suits and shoes squatting on the street smoking cigarettes. Compared with other unsuccessful interviewers without a business firm, this man''s image was even more embarrassing. First, he was at least 30 years old, And different from those interviewers who comb hair wax carefully to keep their hair style, they only have a short hair, the whole face is as thin as a knife, and they also have a hard and dense beard like a steel needle on their cheeks. A pair of eyes still can''t turn when smoking. Although there are losses, they are definitely not depressed.
"Likang trading company, what''s Mr. Song TIANYAO''s name?" song TIANYAO handed the fragrant business card in his hand and asked.
The man threw away the cigarette in his hand and stood up first. Then he took song TIANYAO''s business card with both hands: "no, my surname is Luo, Luo zhuankun."
"Mr. Luo''s age and the suit he''s wearing don''t seem to be coming for an interview. If you dye his hair and beard, it''s like those ghost interviewers." song TIANYAO took out a cigarette from his pocket and gave it to the other party: "I don''t know where Mr. Luo came from and where he was before?"
Seeing this man named Luo zhuankun squatting on the street smoking, song TIANYAO noticed that he was different from several other unlucky guys. First, his personal image was old and untidy. Second, his suit was made of much higher-grade fabrics than that of song TIANYAO. I''m afraid he couldn''t do it without five or six hundred Hong Kong dollars.
"From Shanghai, I used to work as a recorder at the Shanghai Gold horn in central." Luo zhuankun took song TIANYAO''s cigarette, said thank you and responded.
Song TIANYAO was stunned. Shanghainese, central Shanghai gold? He paused for two or three seconds and asked:
"George Hutong, Xu Jizhuang, solemn minister, Wang Yuanxi? Who does Mr. Luo work under?"
Luo zhuankun was also stunned. Unexpectedly, the young man in front of him judged his origin only from his own words. He nodded: "he made a living under boss Wang Yuanxi before. Mr. Song has heard of boss Wang?"
"These people were one of the best guests from Shanghai to Hong Kong. Now they can''t even keep the elite like Mr. Luo?" song TIANYAO asked with a heavy breath.
George Hutong, a Jewish tycoon, Xu Jizhuang, director of the Kuomintang general post office and general post remittance office, Zheng Zhengchen, a big speculator in Shanghai, and Wang Yuanxi, a gold tycoon, can be said to be the richest in cash flow when they came to Hong Kong in 48 and 49 years. Compared with these Shanghai visitors, the local chamber of commerce is a poor man who is not worth a penny.
George hutong is definitely a well-known figure in Shanghai. His adoptive father Silas Hutong was known as the richest Jew in the Far East when he was alive. He owned the whole Nanjing Road and half of the real estate in Jing''an District. At that time, the largest private garden in Shanghai was built by Silas Hutong.
The autumn moon of Pinghu Lake in the West Lake of Hangzhou was also bought by Silas Hutong as his wife luojialing''s back garden, which is called Luoyuan.
In 1931, Silas Hartong died of illness in Shanghai, leaving assets valued at $660 million.
In 1949, his adopted son George Hutong realized all his assets after 16 years of inheritance disputes, and got more than 70 million US dollars in cash, about 230 million Hong Kong dollars, and went to Hong Kong.
Xu Jizhuang, for example, in order to prevent the Hong Kong government from sending him back to the mainland for trial by the Kuomintang, in 1948, Wang Baimei, Xu Jizhuang''s concubine, hired more than a dozen Hong Kong law firms for Xu Jizhuang while Xu Jizhuang was detained by the Hong Kong colonial government. These law firms helped to hire four Royal barristers and seven barristers who were in Hong Kong at that time, He was responsible for the court''s defense for Xu Jizhuang. Finally, the court argued fiercely for four days, which finally forced the Hong Kong colonial government to step back and stop mentioning the return of Xu Jizhuang to the mainland. The Hong Kong Court issued an unprecedented astronomical bail of HK $5 million. After paying the bail, Xu Jizhuang was allowed to obtain bail pending trial, Everyone thought that Xu Jizhuang''s concubine might have to sell some assets to cash out or borrow them for a few days before she could pay them all. Unexpectedly, just after the sentence was pronounced, before the judge who tried the case walked out of the court, five million Hong Kong dollars in cash had been sent to Xu Jizhuang, who was released in court.
The amount of the KMT''s prosecution against Xu Jizhuang for corruption and fraud was US $50000, US $260000 in government bonds and French $2.8 billion, which together converted into about 150 million Hong Kong dollars.
George Hutong, who has a fortune of 230 million, and Xu Jizhuang, who embezzled 150 million Hong Kong dollars and paid 5 million bail without blinking an eye, shocked most local Chinese businessmen in Hong Kong. Compared with these mainland River dragons, he really didn''t deserve the title of a local snake. At most, he was just an earthworm.
Because there are at least a dozen Shanghai businessmen like George Hutong and Xu Jizhuang, who are worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Rong Hongyuan, Bian Runqing, Zheng Zhengchen, Wang Yuanxi and so on. Even if they are not as high-profile as George Hutong and Xu Jizhuang, they are not much worse in terms of wealth.
After bail, Xu Jizhuang, George Hutong, Zheng Zhengchen, Wang Yuanxi and others were used to speculation in Shanghai. After coming to Hong Kong, they found that the Hong Kong colonial government had very loose regulation on gold trading. Naturally, the four formed a Shanghai group and began to take action on Hong Kong''s gold.
It can be said that the wave of gold speculation in Hong Kong started in 1949 was completely set off by the Shanghai group. They judged that the Hong Kong colonial government would face the crisis of inflation after the liberation of Guangzhou in the mainland. Once inflation, the price of gold would inevitably rise. According to the previous performance that the Hong Kong colonial government almost never interfered in gold trading, Xu Jizhuang and George Hartong decided to make a fortune for the Hong Kong colonial government this time, manipulate the price of gold and kill Hong Kong.
During the period from 270 yuan or two to 330 yuan or two, Shanghai speculation group began to swallow a large number of gold. The total amount of gold held has been nearly 800000 Liang, worth more than 260 million Hong Kong dollars. If the price of gold rises after the liberation of Guangzhou, this batch of gold of 260 million Hong Kong dollars will not be doubled at this time, But it can directly make the group sit in the position of banker of gold trading in Hong Kong.
Results on the first day of Guangzhou''s liberation, the opening price of the Hong Kong gold and silver trading market soared to 470 yuan or two according to the judgment of Xu Jizhuang and others. On the afternoon of the same day, the gold and silver trading market suddenly threw out a large amount of gold spot, which was not limited to trading. When the market closed in the afternoon, the gold price was hit as low as 430 yuan, no matter how much Xu Jizhuang and others ate, There is still a steady stream of gold in stock waiting for them to continue to pay for it.
In just three days, the price of gold in Hong Kong fell back to 360 yuan. Xu Jizhuang and others, plus the discount interest, lost nearly 90 yuan in one or two gold. People in the gold and silver trading field once calculated that the failed speculation made these Shanghai tycoons lose at least 45 million Hong Kong dollars, not counting the small speculators in Shanghai who wanted to eat meat behind several tycoons.
The gold that suddenly emerged to kill the four tycoons in Shanghai was secretly transported by the Hong Kong colonial government from South America. The total number and time were unknown. However, everyone said that it was because George Hutong and Xu Jizhuang were too arrogant in Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Governor couldn''t see them, so they killed them.
There are also rumors among Shanghainese that several local giants of Guangdong businessmen deliberately set up a bureau to cut the flesh and blood of Shanghainese by relying on their relationship with the British.
It is said that song TIANYAO is not sure whether it is true or not, but the high-profile four tycoons in Shanghai have no news and no attention. Song TIANYAO has also heard that after the failure of gold speculation, several big speculators in Shanghai have a bad end, but he has not seen it with his own eyes. At this time, he was a little surprised to see Luo zhuankun. These rich people in Shanghai can''t even keep their talents?
"Wang Yuanxi, boss Wang''s two aunts and wives have been taken away by people with debts. People like us, if we want to be bought, no one will take it, so we can only find another way to live." Luo zhuankun lit the cigarette with a match and said with some emotion.
Wang Yuanxi? When he first came to Hong Kong, he was also a billionaire tycoon? In just two years, my aunt was pulled out of debt?
"I have something to do today. I''ll invite Mr. Luo to dinner in the restaurant of Doris hotel tomorrow evening. If I don''t dislike the shallow water of Likang trading company, I''d like to invite Mr. Luo to work in Likang." song TIANYAO said to Luo zhuankun.
With that, song TIANYAO turned around and left with Angie Palis. Angie Palis still had a lot to deal with about Oxfam''s registration. Song TIANYAO liked to listen to people''s stories, but he couldn''t delay the business.
"This person makes me feel very bad," Angie pelis said to song TIANYAO.
"Xu Jinian group''s employees in several Shanghai Gold brands in central are good at opportunistic speculation. It''s normal to have a bad impression, but don''t you and I rely on speculation now? It''s very bad to see you say so to me." song TIANYAO and Anji pelis got on the back seat of a taxi and responded.
Angie pelis said faintly: "Of course, the difference is that you speculate, not me. Your method of speculation is that power comes first and money comes later. Such speculators can no longer see anything in their eyes except money. If a person has status, people will not feel abrupt even if he has more money. Therefore, strictly speaking, you are not a qualified speculator, and you are now It also lacks an important condition. You have no money. "
When Angie pelis said that song TIANYAO had no money, song TIANYAO was thinking about what Luo zhuankun said. If these tycoons did not want to kill the governor of Hong Kong''s Zhuang and seize the position of local Guangdong businessmen in the gold market, with those huge cash flow capital, even if they could not talk about celebrities for generations, they would at least have a bad legacy for thousands of years. They would never be separated from their families in just two years result.
"It''s not terrible to have no money. It''s the most terrible to feel that you are the first in the world when you have a little money."
