Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981
Page 724
Although the Keswick family is the major shareholder of Jardines, Jardines is not the only company in Keswick's industry. Keswick's core industry has always been in Europe.
This time, Jardine was facing such a big turmoil. He came to Asia to take over the Jardine Group, and he was also appointed by his brother.
As one of the four major foreign firms in Hong Kong, Jardine has always been an important source of funds for the Keswick family. Although Keswick has many industries, it will never sit idly by as a cash cow like Jardine and be acquired by others.
Simon Keswick never thought, or more intuitively speaking, the Keswick family never thought that Jardine would one day be brought into this situation by a young man.
Chapter 783 Yang Sheng = American Ginseng
The two didn't say a word, and neither of them took the initiative. The scene fell into embarrassment for a while, and the people around subconsciously slowed down their breathing, not daring to disturb the silent confrontation between the two big men.
Yang Chen knew that the other party came here to see him, he must have come to negotiate. According to the Western style of doing things, at the beginning of the negotiation, no matter what his situation is, even if he is at a disadvantage, he will act very strong.
This habit was gradually cultivated after the industrial revolution in modern western countries with the help of strong military strength.
Especially when facing Orientals, this characteristic is particularly obvious.
And this is mainly caused by the background of the times.
The Eastern and Western civilizations have undergone a contrast in modern times. The West has risen strongly and defeated the former pride of the East through war.
To be precise, it smashed the dream of the great eastern country that was once a kingdom of heaven.
Different from others, Yang Chen's soul comes from the 21st century, that former big eastern country, after suffering a lot, has become rich and powerful again, although it has not yet recovered to the point where the heavenly kingdom despises everything.
But at that time, after decades of hard work, the country had regained the confidence of the people at the bottom.
Therefore, in Yang Chen's heart, he never had the idea of being inferior to others, let alone get used to the bad temper of foreigners.
Facing Yang Chen's indifference, Simon Keswick frowned slightly, obviously he also felt that the young man opposite him was not easy to deal with.
But thinking about it in a blink of an eye, he can also understand.
Anyone who has a little understanding of Yang Chen should know what kind of people he often faces. Compared with the queen, prince, prime minister and prime minister, what kind of head of state is he? It's really nothing.
Thinking of this, Simon Keswick couldn't help laughing at himself, and he didn't want to do anything unnecessary, and took the initiative to reach out his hand, "Hi Yang Sheng, I took the liberty to visit, I hope I didn't disturb you."
"Ginseng, my mother still has deer antler"
Yang Chen couldn't help rolling his eyes, feeling silent in his heart.
To be honest, he is really helpless to the people of Xiangjiang who like to put this "sheng" and that "sheng" on people. He can accept other surnames, but he doesn't need pigs, horses, and cows. Well, after all, we are not of the same breed...
Tucao is back to Tucao, Yang Chen still didn't show it on the surface, he stretched out his hand and shook hands with him, "Hello, Mr. Simon Keswick, I don't know what you want from me?"
Yang Chen wasn't polite at all, he directly asked a question knowingly, and wanted Simon Keswick to take the initiative to express his intentions.
In the words of the richest man, I know, but I don't say it, just quietly be a handsome man, and quietly watch others pretend.
Seeing Yang Chen call out his name, Simon Keswick smiled wryly without any surprise, and said, "It seems that I don't need to introduce myself."
Simon Keswick cleverly avoided the problem, obviously he didn't want Yang Chen to take the initiative.
"Sit down first." Yang Chen shrugged indifferently, and greeted him: "Mr. Keswick, what would you like to drink, tea? Or coffee?"
"Let's drink tea." Simon Keswick smiled and said, "Chinese people pay attention to what the guest wants to do. Maybe in the future, I will have more contacts and exchanges with Yang Sheng. I need to learn more about this tea ceremony."
"Mr. Keswick said it wrong. I'm not the host here. I'm actually a guest." Yang Chen shook his head. He had no interest in tea or tea ceremony at all. He signaled to the housekeeper of the Xie family who was waiting beside him to help re- Make a pot of tea.
While waiting, Yang Chen cast his eyes on the beautiful woman beside Simon Keswick, and said with a smile: "Miss Ruth, long time no see, I didn't expect you to come too."
"Mr. Yang, do you remember me?"
Ruth looked at Yang Chen in surprise, obviously she didn't expect that the two had only met once before, and the other party still remembered her.
There was a smirk on Yang Chen's face, a pair of eyes looked at her carefully, and then he pretended to be serious: "It seems that Miss Ruth is not confident enough in her charm."
When Yang Chen took over Asia TV, he had a conflict with Jardine. At that time, the shareholder representative of Jardine was kicked out by him. In the end, Ruth, the secretary of Jardine's board chairman Niu Bijian, came forward to resolve it.
Think about who Niu Bijian is, and what kind of company Jardine is. To be able to serve as Niu Bijian's secretary, not only ability is enough, but the appearance must also be online.
According to Yang Chen's thinking, the secretary around him must be like Ruth, every move should be in line with what a Jardine secretary should look like.
It's a pity that the other party is British, not Chinese or ethnic Chinese. Otherwise, he really wanted to poach the other party from Jardine and let the other party help him cultivate Blue Beauty.
Ruth naturally didn't know what was going on in Yang Chen's head. Seeing him looking at herself with a smirk on his face, because she had experienced various scenes and met many people of all kinds, she couldn't help but blush on her pretty face at this moment.
Who is Yang Chen, needless to say, his name ranges from a 60-year-old old lady to a three-year-old kid, and everyone in Xiangjiang knows it.
Faced with such a talented and rich man, and also a super handsome young meat, such a man, even a stone girl, would be moved.
The heartbeat was the heartbeat, but Ruth did not get carried away and forgot her position. The purpose of her following this trip was to hug the thigh of the new boss, Simon Keswick.
Although small fresh meat is very tempting, what's the use if you can't eat it?
Ruth didn't respond, and secretly glanced at Simon Keswick beside her. Seeing that he was also watching her at the moment, out of a woman's sixth sense, she instinctively told her that it was the right time for her to come out this time.
Seeing that Ruth didn't speak, Yang Chen felt a little bored, picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea, and asked: "Mr. Keswick, I don't know if you are coming to me on behalf of Mr. Newbikin, or on behalf of yourself, or The Keswick family behind you?"
In order to prevent the Keswick family from returning to Yihe, Yang Chen specifically told Yuan Tianfan to keep an eye on the Keswick family.
Even if he couldn't swallow Yihe in one go this time, he had to mutilate it and remove an arm.
He doesn't really care much about the Keswick family, because his industries in the UK and Europe are all combined with big families. No matter how stupid the Keswick family is, they will not take the initiative to challenge the Spencer family. that group of people.
And his second question was mainly aimed at Simon Keswick. The internal competition of the big family has always been very cruel.
When he was preparing to move Jardine, he had an in-depth understanding of the Keswick family behind Jardine. The current direct heirs of the Keswick family are only Simon Kaiser and his elder brother Henry Keswick.
Chapter 784
The two brothers have always given the impression to the outside world that they are respectful and harmonious, and there is no major conflict. However, according to the news fed back by Yuan Tianfan, the competition between the two brothers is quite fierce in private.
It's just that the contest between the two tends to be positive, and they never play tricks in secret. Naturally, there is no known healthy competition.
Simon Keswick appears here now, obviously he was assigned, oh no, it can’t be said to be assigned, you must know that the Jardine Group is still very powerful, if Simon Keswick can succeed as the director of Jardine as he did in his previous life If he is appointed as the chairman of the bureau, he will also have a certain right to speak within the Keswick family in the future.
Once this person has selfishness, it is easy to control.
Although he intends to annex Jardine, judging from the current stalemate between the two, even if he wins in the end, he will become the second charter king.
Win face, lose money.
He didn't want to do this kind of thing for the second time either.
Furthermore, in the next year, his long-awaited opportunity to buy the bottom is coming soon. Anyone who wants to gain a foothold in Xiangjiang in the future, if they don’t have real estate in their hands, will end up being a substitute for others. The working situation.
The annexation of Jardine would inevitably lead to a deadly confrontation with the Keswick family, and it would be inevitable to hurt the muscles and bones in the middle, and it may even cause a greater rebound. You must know that the strength of the British consortium in Xiangjiang is still quite deep.
