Hong Kong Movies: The Boss's Global Empire

The Hong Kong government, which originally did not want to accept refugees, had no choice but to agree to accept refugees and provide temporary asylum.

The expenses of the refugees after they arrive ashore will be borne by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.

The United Nations is responsible for arranging a second round of reception by other Western countries, that is, allowing these refugees to settle down.

After the policy was introduced,

More than 100,000 refugees came to Hong Kong Island, causing a series of social incidents.

The most serious problems are naturally violent crime and the labor market! And for people in the underworld,

There are a bunch of new colleagues here to grab the food! The Annan Gang!

According to the provisions of,

Refugees should only stay in boat people centers,

Food, accommodation and shelter are all arranged by the Boat People's Center.

Regulations are regulations.

No one wants to eat from the same pot.

No one wants to stay in one place for a long time, so many people inevitably run away from the boat people center.

Some work illegally.

Some of them are gangsters.

Because they are floating duckweed, with no way out,

So be brave and fight hard!

And because Annan had been in war for a long time, most of the adult men had been on the battlefield.

These people are just as dangerous and professional as the Big Circle Boys! "Yes."

Gao Jin said, "I've already asked the hero. He has a group of Annan people under his command. Perhaps they can find out the truth." "No need to go to so much trouble."

Lu Wendong's men had already followed the gang of criminals. No matter where they came from,

No matter how powerful the opponent is,

No one can possibly defeat his assassins! "Wait for my notification."

"Now, you need to start by making a show of force!" "Also, prepare the contract!"

The top floor conference room of Overseas Trust Bank headquarters on Wan Chai Praya Road,

Chen Taotao, Huang Shitong, Huang Changzan, Zhong Chaofa and other core directors are all present.

For example, Chen Taotao and Huang Shitong represented the company's major shareholders, while Huang Changzan and others were not qualified to attend.

It's just that Lu Wendong considered that these people were more useful.

So they were appointed as directors of the board of directors.

This has an advantage: one person has the final say!

Lu Wendong walked into the meeting room,

A group of people stood up immediately: "Chairman."

Lu Wendong's control over the Overseas Trust Bank far exceeds that of the original Zhang family and Cao family. As long as he has enough money,

They can even forcibly privatize overseas trust banks! However, Lu Wendong will not do that.

The bank has to face the whole world. If it is forced to be privatized,

It is easy for people to accuse the business of being opaque and the funds of being unsafe, which will affect related businesses.

This is also one of the reasons why Lu Wendong only appeared in public as an individual major shareholder. "Sit down."

Lu Wendong walked to the upper seat and sat down: "I just came from Denglong Street." "I wonder if you know the situation over there?"

Zhong Chaofa hurriedly said, "Chairman, I heard that Hang Lung's armored car was hijacked and suffered heavy losses."

Huang Changzan sighed: "It's raining cats and dogs. I heard that this bearer bond is not insured." Since it is not insured,

Of course, the loss must be borne by Hang Lung.

Lu Wendong glanced at Chen Taotao calmly.

The Hong Kong government will definitely not be able to bear the sudden loss of 500 million.

Chen Taotao immediately understood.

It turns out that Hang Lung suffered such heavy losses.

He knew what to do next.

"This serves as a wake-up call not only for me but also for our bank," Lu Wendong said. "Security is of paramount importance."

"So I decided to completely replace the security at Overseas Trust Bank."

Before, after Mr. Lu acquired the Overseas Trust Bank, the system had already opened up a field for "Five Six Seven" to raise troops, stipulating that it could recruit 500 death warriors.

only,

That was just the assassin assigned to Lu Wendong by the system.

It did not actually replace the security of Overseas Trust Bank. After Chen Taotao took office,

Its main focus is on adjusting and optimizing the business of overseas trust banks, so naturally it pays no attention to security.

Lu Wendong is different.

He attaches great importance to security-related business.

It can not only reasonably and legally arrange the death squad,

It can also create a brand effect. "Mr. Lu has thought it through very carefully."

Huang Changzan was the first to agree: "Armed robberies have been frequent recently. Now they even dare to rob bank armored trucks. Who knows, next time criminals might dare to directly attack the bank." "Professional security not only improves bank safety, but also enhances customers' sense of security."

Take Hang Lung's armored car as an example.

Others naturally agreed.

This is what a listed company does.

Everything should be done in accordance with the rules and regulations, such as the decision they made now.

It will be announced to the general public at that time. If there are any omissions,

People will also file a complaint with the China Securities Regulatory Commission... So,

Everything needs a good reason... "Okay."

Lu Wendong followed up, “Then choose a few more security companies on the market for comparison.”

Of course, he couldn't directly appoint Donghuang Security.

We must find a few companies to bid together.

Then, after a series of reasonable and legal selections,

Finally, Donghuang Security was selected as the cooperative security agency of Overseas Trust Bank! The whole process is absolutely open and transparent.

No one can say anything bad after seeing it.

Lu Wendong followed up, "Everyone, I just came back from Happy Valley and got some news." Everyone's expression suddenly became serious.

In addition to Chen Taotao who just came to Hong Kong,

All the others are members of the Jockey Club.

Lu Wendong said: "Mr. Xia from the Jockey Club told me that the amount of bets this year has exceeded last year's 400 billion." Mr. Xia is Xia Zhixian.

He is also a director of Hang Lung Bank.

Huang Changzan, Zhong Chaofa and others are very familiar with him.

Huang Changzan and the others exchanged glances.

So Director Xia has already started dealing with Mr. Lu? "Do you know what this means?"

Lu Wendong said firmly: "The betting volume of the Jockey Club is a barometer of the Hong Kong economy."

"Since the amount of bets has increased, it means that the confidence of the general public has begun to recover and they have started to work, and their income is also increasing." Everyone couldn't help but smile.

Economic improvement,

The bank's business will also improve accordingly.

Lu Wendong said: "The majority of citizens have money, and their first choice is to buy a house."

For cattle, horses, and tiles,

In Hong Kong Island,

When anyone has money, the first thing they want to do is buy a house.

Everyone nodded: "Chairman Lu is wise."

Zhong Chaofa suddenly remembered something.

He said: "Recently, the first phase of the large private housing estate Xing Hua You in Chai Wan launched 448 units for sale. I heard that eight days before the launch, a large number of buyers, including agents, speculators and real estate agents, lined up day and night, with hundreds of people waiting in line. The crowd was so intense that it even broke the record for the longest queue in Hong Kong."

There has always been a real estate speculation trend.

During the hot selling period,

There are even gangsters with tattoos who stop by.

Zhong Chaofa continued, "I heard some speculators are even selling application forms for 5 yuan each, and there are fake sales receipts."

Everyone looked at each other,

Everyone looks excited!

Is what Zhong Chaofa said a good thing?

Of course not!

but,

For banks and real estate developers,

It's a good thing actually.

This suggests that the general public's demand for housing has been rekindled, prompting them to take out loans...

Buying a property in Hong Kong,

Most of the housing payments rely on loans, for banks,

Here comes the opportunity to make money. "That's right."

Huang Shitong also said: "When Kangze Garden was launched, there were too many people applying for the lottery and the order was disrupted. The developer was forced to suspend the distribution of application forms and published the application forms in the newspaper the next day.

Applicants can mail in their application form along with a cashier's check for $1. The lottery will be held a few days later. "The growing speculation suggests a resurgence in the real estate market."

Lu Wendong smiled faintly: "The Sino-British agreement has been finalized. The future of Hong Kong is becoming increasingly clear, and market confidence has been restored."

"In addition, the depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar along with the US dollar has stimulated a significant increase in Hong Kong's exports and promoted economic recovery." "Next, the era of banks is about to begin."

Everyone applauded.

They are all senior banking professionals.

Naturally, I can understand what Lu Wendong said. The more active the market economy is,

The more people demand for money, the more they dare to spend.

Once the market goes into a downturn, even if you have money in your hands,

Their subconscious instinct is to save money on clothes and food.

"We must learn from the lessons of the overseas trust banks' over-aggression."

Lu Wendong's expression suddenly became serious: "A bank is a bank, and it must abide by its core business." Everyone immediately sat up straight.

The reason why Overseas Trust Bank got into trouble was because it was too greedy and aggressive.

I'm too deeply involved in the real estate industry!

A bank isn't focusing on financing and lending, but is instead getting involved in real estate development...

When times are good, there are naturally no problems.

But once the market turns tough, it will be the end of me.

"clear."

Everyone said: "Every experience has taught us a lesson. Overseas Trust Bank has finally survived this ordeal and will never dare to make the same mistake again." In fact, it was because Lu Wendong controlled most of the power.

Even if they want to do something, it's just a thought.

"Mr. Chen, everyone."

Lu Wendong continued, "There will likely be a lot of new stocks listed or rights issues coming up soon. I think we should set up a merchant bank or finance company to handle a variety of businesses like corporate acquisitions, mergers, and restructuring."

Chen Taotao immediately said, "Chairman, I was just about to report this to you, but I didn't expect you to bring it up already." Huang Shitong smiled and said, "Great minds think alike."

Everyone burst into laughter.

After the banking crisis of 1965,

The Hong Kong government has suspended the issuance of banking licenses.

The number of licensed banks also decreased from 86 in 1964 to 74.

At that time, the way foreign institutions poured into Hong Kong Island was to cooperate with local registered banks.

or acquire bank shares in the market,

To achieve the purpose of operating a bank in Hong Kong. However,

The cost of entering Hong Kong's financial industry through this channel is becoming increasingly high, and the number of targets for acquisition is decreasing.

Many multinational banks have set up subsidiaries in Hong Kong in the form of finance companies to engage in merchant banking or investment banking business that does not require a banking license.

Engaged in arranging listing, underwriting, acquisition, merger and other businesses.

For example, Dali Financial, which has close ties with Hang Lung, is following this trend.

Why set up a finance company in addition to a bank? Of course, it is for operational flexibility.
