Dreaming back to 1949, the great powers were there to deceive us

It doesn't matter if it's none of your business.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Hu Zhenhua looked at the report in his hand in stunned silence.

In just one day, more than a dozen insurance companies emerged in Shanghai, with a wide variety of businesses. Some, like Tong'an, provided ship ticket insurance, while others provided air ticket insurance and train ticket insurance. But without exception, they all had the same routine, which was double cash back upon maturity, or double repurchase.

Hu Zhenhua rubbed his eyebrows, feeling as if he had opened Pandora's box.

To say that these companies are all scammers would be unfair to some of them, but to say that they would sincerely fulfill their promises like Tongan is probably unrealistic.

Will a company established to follow the trend do business honestly?

It is conceivable that after the boom, there will be chaos everywhere. I don’t know how many ordinary people will go bankrupt and fall into hardship.

In the conference room, Sanhai and Atlan looked indifferent. This incident was fundamentally different from yesterday's. The followers did not steal the name of their company. Even if something happened, it would not be blamed on Tongan!

Hu Zhenhua knew that talking to these guys about the interests of the country and the well-being of the people was like talking to a cow.

Lao Hu thought for a while and decided to take a roundabout approach: it is better to lure people with benefits than to persuade them with righteousness.

"Everyone, have you ever considered that the wealth of the Magic City is limited? If it's all plundered by those who follow the trend, how can we still sell our tickets at a high price?"

Sure enough, this remark touched everyone's sore spot. Atlan put down the cigar in his hand and said,

"These followers are all powerful people in Shanghai. I just took a look and they can be roughly divided into three categories: bureaucratic capital, gang members like the Qinghong Gang, and foreign capital. These people have enormous power, and we can't afford to offend them!"

Zhao Zhi suddenly cursed,

"These bastards are so shameless! After failing to defraud, they now try to plagiarize!"

Yu Bing just rubbed his teeth and said helplessly,

"The problem is, we know they're committing fraud, but we can't expose them!"

Because Tongan is the instigator, everyone is doing the same thing. If we talk about it, what will others think?

Guo Dachong thought further, knocked on the table and reminded,

"Have you ever thought about this: if those who followed the trend ran away, would the angry people vent their anger on us?"

Hu Zhenhua nodded, this was inevitable.

"Therefore, for the sake of the company's profitability, and more importantly, to avoid future risks, we cannot sit idly by and do nothing about this matter!"

Zhao Zhi spread his hands and said weakly,

"What can we do? Stealing someone's money is like killing their parents! Putting everything else aside, we just reached a settlement with the Green Gang. If we anger them again, I'm afraid we'll all be drowned in the Huangpu River tomorrow."

When Yu Bing heard this, he immediately became unhappy.

"Old Zhao, what are you talking about? You're only boosting others' morale and destroying your own prestige! What's wrong with the Green Gang? We're all on the same page, so who's afraid of whom? Let me tell you, I have a security team of over 300 people under my command, all veterans of hundreds of battles! If the Green Gang dares to act rashly, I'll wipe them out immediately!"

When mentioning the security team, Yu Bing straightened his back and shouted,

"I'm not exaggerating, but with the Green Gang's limited combat power, I can lead just one company and kill them seven times!"

Zhao Zhi immediately retorted,

"You're strong-limbed but simple-minded. If fighting and killing can solve the problem, why would we even need to discuss it? We're a company, not a gang!"

Seeing that they were about to fight, Hu Zhenhua quickly interrupted them.

"Bingzi, tell me about the security team!"

Yu Bing glared at Zhao Zhi provocatively and said,

"We've recruited quite a few talented individuals for our security team this time. In 1945, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the Nationalist government carried out a major military reduction, and many officers who graduated from miscellaneous military academies or came from the ranks were dismissed. The new recruits I've recruited are the best of these. Most of them are literate and physically strong. According to your requirements, Huazi, they're all from good families. I'm not exaggerating, but if they're equipped with weapons, they'll be no less capable than the five main forces at the same strength!"

Hu Zhenhua was so itchy after hearing what he said that he couldn't wait to ask,

"Where do you put them? I want to see them!"

Seeing that they were going off topic, Guo Da Chong knocked on the table and shouted,

"Hey, hey, hey! You two, we're discussing followers. This is the real business. How to solve this problem? We must come up with a plan tonight!"

Hu Zhenhua collected his thoughts and asked,

"Do you have any ideas?"

Seeing everyone's dull expressions, Hu Zhenhua knew there was no hope.

He lit a cigarette and started puffing.

What business cases can be used as reference for future generations?

Hu Zhenhua thought for a long time, and suddenly an idea came to his mind. He sat up straight and looked at Atlan.

"Atlan, I have a plan, and I'm afraid you'll have to suffer a little!"
