Chapter 249

Mr. Li's villa.

The television was playing ATV news.

"Mr. Cha... outside the court... expressed apology to Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu..."

"Compensation of 2 million..."

Mr. Li saw this news, his heart had no waves.

Then the next news,

"Recently, an internal rumor has spread within China Resources that China Resources and Mr. Guan are preparing to join hands to establish a new supermarket chain."

"Hmm?!!!"

Mr. Li sat up abruptly,

his expression solemn.

News: "Recently, China Resources Chairman Mr. Zhu and Mr. Guan have been in frequent contact... or are verifying this rumor..."

Mr. Li frowned.

He was not afraid of China Resources; its development was too slow to win against the monopoly influence of his ParknShop and Wellcome.

But adding this weird guy Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, who had super high influence in three districts, combined with a chain supermarket, that would definitely make China Resources Supermarket grow rapidly, threatening his ParknShop and Wellcome.

China Resources spreading such news definitely didn't come from nowhere; it should be that China Resources had similar ideas.

"This is tricky!"

At this time,

Mr. Li finally raised Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu from a 'small punk' to the level of 'slightly tricky.'

The danger level was upgraded, so he had to change his method to deal with Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu.

He thought for a while and made a call to the eldest son, Mr. Li.

Half an hour later,

"Dad~~~"

The eldest son, Mr. Li, walked into the villa, drunk.

Mr. Li frowned: "Where did you go to drink?"

The eldest son, Mr. Li, breathed out alcohol, slightly drunk: "Went to drink with friends."

Mr. Li didn't want to manage so much: "Calling you over today is because I want you to find Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and have a good talk. As the saying goes, enemies should be resolved rather than knotted. Since this Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu has already proven his ability, he is qualified to receive our attention."

Hearing this, the eldest son, Mr. Li, was immediately a bit unhappy.

"Dad, why does he deserve it? He's just a small punk."

"A small punk? A small punk can make our Li family suffer three times without being able to take advantage of him, so what are we?"

"…………"

Mr. Li said impatiently: "If you don't go, I'll let your younger brother go."

Hearing this, the eldest son, Mr. Li, immediately sobered up. Although the brothers seemed friendly, they both knew in their hearts that the other was a competitor. The Li family's nearly 100 billion in assets were destined to fall on them, and it was not an equal split, but a single inheritance. And now the eldest son, Mr. Li, occupied a great advantage, so his younger brother was naturally extremely jealous of him and wished to replace him.

The eldest son, Mr. Li, didn't want to give his younger brother a chance.

The eldest son, Mr. Li, deliberated his words and said: "Dad, after all, this matter was caused by me. If my younger brother goes, I'm afraid he won't be able to communicate with Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu. I'd better go."

Mr. Li nodded: "Good, you don't need to ask him to do anything; just treat it like making an ordinary friend, get to know him first, that's enough."

On one hand, he hoped Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu could 'stop'; on the other hand, he didn't want to lower the Li family's style.

The eldest son, Mr. Li, understood his father's thoughts and nodded: "Okay, I'll call him tomorrow and make an appointment for a meal."

The eldest son, Mr. Li, said goodbye, left Mr. Li's villa, and returned to his own home in the next villa.

And Mr. Li, at this time, was thinking about the stock problem of Hutchison Whampoa tomorrow.

Once this news came out,

the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa tomorrow would definitely continue to fall.

Suddenly,

Mr. Li had an idea: since the stock price fall of Hutchison Whampoa was inevitable, he might as well short it himself.

What is this called?

Hedging!

Thinking of this, he didn't hesitate anymore and called HSBC.

However, he quickly received a rejection feedback from HSBC.

Because currently in the stock market, the sentiment of retail investors towards Hutchison Whampoa's stock is relatively pessimistic, and the circulating shares have already been shorted by many people, and it is currently in short supply, and HSBC does not have enough stock, inventory is insufficient, and there is no way to lend it out.

And there is another point, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange still has supervision on short selling. Currently, the scale of short selling is almost about to trigger the regulatory restrictions of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. If Mr. Li joins again, he will definitely be restricted or prohibited by the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

Mr. Li: "…………"

6!

His Hutchison Whampoa Group has a market value of more than 20 billion; Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's amount of capital simply cannot eat it up!

Obviously, there must be a lot of capital shorting behind it.

Mr. Lin must have it, China Resources must have participated, and the other three major families are estimated to have participated as well.

Mr. Li: F*ck, one by one, old bastards!

……

……

A new day,

the sunlight from the window shone into the bedroom,

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu woke up, pulled out his hand that was hugging Sister Ruan Mei's delicate waist, looked at the time, it was already 8:21.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu rubbed against her, took a few deep breaths of fragrance, and then got up with satisfaction.

After washing up, Sister Ruan Mei had already gotten up and was making breakfast for him, fish skin noodles.

After finishing breakfast, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu met up with Li Jie and went downstairs.

Following Xiao Fu had been a single dog for too long, so Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu gave him a holiday, and Li Jie had already finished filming "Once Upon a Time in China," so he became Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's bodyguard again.

Arrived downstairs,

"Morning, Zu."

"Morning, Brother Zu!"

"Zu, I saw 'Ming Pao' apologized to you."

Neighbors greeted him one by one.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu bought a newspaper at the newsstand and started reading it.

"Shock! Literary Master Forced to Apologize to a Young Man!" — Oriental Daily News

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu had a black line on his forehead.

Would it kill you to write a normal headline?!

Continued to flip through, second page of news.

"China Resources and Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu Join Hands to Establish a Chain Supermarket? The Death Knell of the Li Family's Retail Empire?"

Above, it detailed China Resources' advantages: backed by the mainland, large channels, many products, low costs...

Then it stated Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's advantages: having strong support rates in three districts. The news listed in detail the events of Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's strong support from neighbors when he ran for councilor to prove Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's advantages...

Finally, it concluded that: the union of the two sides can be called a combination of two swords, guaranteeing to kill the Li family's retail empire without leaving a piece of armor.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu scanned the newsstand; seven or eight newspapers listed this as a headline, and more than a dozen newspapers had it on the second page.

Obviously, such large-scale publicity was definitely concocted by China Resources.

Didn't expect China Resources to act so fast.

In the stock market today, Hutchison Whampoa's stock will definitely fall even more severely.

Third page,

"Black Guns from Guangdong Flowing into Hong Kong..." (from "Hard Boiled")

"Grenade Robbery..." (from "Hard Boiled")

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu saw this and was surprised: This arms dealer is very active.

Couldn't help but associate it with Mingxin Hospital.

"Ring ring ring~~~"

Just at this moment, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's phone rang, an unfamiliar number.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu connected.

"Mr. Guan, I am Li Ju; the matter last time was my fault. I don't know if you can do me the honor of having a meal together."

"Eldest son Mr. Li..."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu smiled; the Li family's attitude had always been relatively arrogant, and today they finally bowed their heads.

Obviously, the Li family was stimulated by the news of him and China Resources joining hands.

Very good!

During this period, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu also discovered that his short selling, as well as boycotting Pepsi, and making Hutchison Whampoa's stock price fall, had little impact on Mr. Li.

After pondering for a few days, he realized that these losses were only temporary for Mr. Li; over time, the losses would be earned back.

Instead, opening a supermarket chain would cause great harm to Mr. Li, and might even endanger his entire retail system. Pepsi, Wellcome, 7-Eleven, and Watsons combined were Mr. Li's retail empire, Mr. Li's cash cow.

If this cash cow was snatched away by someone, Mr. Li would probably cry himself to sleep in the toilet.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu thought for a while and nodded: "Good."

Eldest son Mr. Li: "Then tomorrow night, Peninsula Hotel."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu had a flash of inspiration: "No no no~~~ I'll set the location, Yunlai Tea House."

Yunlai Tea House?

Of course, it's the tea house Yuan Haoyun is coming to!

Eldest son Mr. Li was stunned: "Where is Yunlai Tea House?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu laughed: "A very nice tea house; you should like it."

What he liked most was pulling these high-and-mighty guys down to his own level, and then stepping on them hard a few times.

Eldest son Mr. Li: "Good, see you at 19:00 tomorrow night!"

After hanging up the phone, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu made a call to Situ Jie to confirm the location.

One hour later,

on the sea, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and Situ Jie met.

"Hahaha~~~ Congratulations, Brother Zu, Mr. Li has been knocked down by you." Situ Jie hugged Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and congratulated him. "Knocked down my ass; I just realized now that this Mr. Li is too strong. I've been messing around, and f*ck, I haven't been able to hurt him at all."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu said, while thinking about the Li family in his heart.

If Mr. Li is difficult to deal with, the Li family is even more difficult.

Because the Li family holds the most real estate ownership; rent collection + the value of the real estate itself is very stable, and others can't snatch it away. If you want to deal with them, there's no way to start. As for the Li family's other industries, they are all tied to other large capital, such as Cathay Pacific (British Swire Group), such as insurance business in cooperation with HSBC.

Therefore, to deal with the Li family, one must first develop and then find a way.

Better to first start a supermarket chain and cut off one of Li Ka-shing's arms first.

The two began to organize their fishing rods, preparing to fish.

"I heard that someone caught a greasy grouper in the coral reef in this area, so I specially prepared live shrimp."

Situ Jie took out a bucket from the yacht.

Inside were some live shrimp.

!.

"Greasy groupers are fierce by nature; what they like to eat most is live shrimp and the like. I want to try using live shrimp as bait to see if I can catch one."

Then he made a live knot, tied it around the shrimp's waist, and hid the fishhook.

"This works too?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu became interested and did the same.

Tied the live shrimp and threw it into the sea.

While fishing, they chatted.

Mainly chatting about the PK between Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and Mr. Li; Situ Jie was very interested.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu suddenly said: "By the way, the big case you wanted, I found one."

"Really?" Situ Jie's hand shook, looking at Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu with surprise.

Do you know how long I've been waiting for a big case?

4 months!

Do you know how I spent these 4 months?!

Every time I see Huang Bingyao showing off in a meeting, I feel so painful!

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Naturally it's true... Today I saw the newspaper saying that arms are rampant in Hong Kong recently, right?"

Situ Jie nodded: "That's right, recently there are indeed more arms on the market, and even grenades have appeared, not to mention AK47s. Hong Kong Island district is okay, but there have been many incidents of robbing gold shops and jewelry stores in the New Territories and Kowloon recently."

With more big cases, Situ Jie, as the supervisor of the O-unit, was naturally under great pressure and overwhelmed.

"Do you have news in this regard?"

"That's right, you know Johnny Wang, right?"

"I know, an arms dealer who has been very prominent in the underworld recently; I only know his name, but I don't know who he is."

"That's right, it's him. Through an informant, I found the location of his arms depot."

"Where?"

"Underneath Mingxin Hospital, there is a very large secret vault, and the entrance is in the morgue... The morgue is guarded by his people, and others can't get in. And among the shareholders of Mingxin Hospital, there happens to be a shareholder named Wang Jieni, which reversed is Johnny Wang!"

After Situ Jie heard this, he was directly worried.

"Damn, this is a hospital; there are many patients, and transferring them is inconvenient. If a gunfight breaks out, it's hard to say how many will be killed or injured."

"That's right, this is the most troublesome problem with this case."

Yuan Haoyun died quite a few partners in this case, and the hospital was also in a mess; there must have been quite a few losses.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "For this case, my opinion is: it doesn't matter if you take it or not, the risk is very high. And in terms of merit, this case definitely can't compare to the influence of the counterfeit group case."

Situ Jie: "Are there any other cases?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "There is one, also very big, but that one is also difficult to handle, with many hostages. If you succeed, the harvest will be much greater than this one."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was talking about the jewelry robbery at the Grand Hotel. (from "High Risk")

Because there are too many wealthy businessmen and celebrities here, especially the American consul and his wife; this is a great merit.

And for this case, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's subordinate Li Jie must join. When the time comes, in order to help Li Jie, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu will definitely let Following Xiao Fu, Ah Bu, and Li Changjiang join...

In terms of difficulty, for Situ Jie, this case is simpler than the hospital case.

Situ Jie: "What specific case?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu shook his head: "Can't say now."

Situ Jie looked at Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's firm eyes and didn't ask any further.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "For this Mingxin Hospital one, if you really don't dare to take action, find a scapegoat who doesn't get along with you, let him take action together, if you lose, let him take the blame, if you win, you snatch the credit."

Situ Jie heard this and was righteous: "I, Situ Jie, am not that kind of person!"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu rolled his eyes.

What kind of person you are, would I not know?

Qiu Gangao would also express dissatisfaction after hearing this.

Situ Jie saw Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu rolling his eyes, his old face flushed: "I'll study it later."

Studying how to find a scapegoat...

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu nodded: "Must be fast, otherwise if it's late, it might be snatched by other police departments."

Yeah, talking about Yuan Haoyun, this god of death!

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was thinking about acquiring this hospital, so naturally he didn't want the patients to suffer heavy casualties.

Situ Jie nodded: "Good!"

……

……

On the other side,

Central and Western District Police Station,

in the conference room, the projector was projected on the wall,

it was exactly the newspaper report about the rampant arms that Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu saw this morning.

Superintendent Peng Xinjian was currently convening the Serious Crime Unit and the Anti-Triad Unit for a meeting regarding the rampant various arms on the market recently.

Yuan Haoyun sat among the police officers, listening, but his mind had already drifted to the other side. ("Hard Boiled")

Yesterday he received news from an informant that there was an arms deal at Yunlai Tea House tonight. He had already decided that this time he would go himself no matter what, and directly wipe out these arms-dealing thugs.

Maga (raising his fist)!

As for why he didn't tell Superintendent Peng, it was because Yuan Haoyun was very confident in himself, and he always had a feeling about Superintendent Peng: this superintendent is steady but not enterprising enough, a waste!

Better to do it himself!

And bring his good partner along.

Meeting adjourned.

Yuan Haoyun and other colleagues walked out of the conference room.

Then...

Saw his ex-girlfriend Cheng Silin holding a bouquet of white roses, walking towards this side.

Yuan Haoyun: "…………"

Directly turned red.

Gritting his teeth!

Good for you, Cheng Silin, just broke up with me, and you're seamlessly connecting, right!

Hmph, this time I must pull off a big case, let you re-recognize the mighty me, and then obediently throw yourself into my arms.

Naive men always like to use force to attract women's attention, for example, pulling a girl's braid during student days, thinking it's very cool: Hmph hmph, little girl, were you stunned by my handsomeness!

……

……

Morning 9:30,

Hong Kong casino... stock market, officially opened.

Many stocks rose one after another.

And Hutchison Whampoa, I don't know if it was because of the news of China Resources and Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu cooperating to open a supermarket, but as soon as Hutchison Whampoa opened, it fell by 10% rapidly!

……

Evening,

19:00,

A black Mercedes with bulletproof glass drove from Deep Water Bay to Wan Chai.

Finally, it stopped downstairs at Yunlai Tea House.

Eldest son Mr. Li looked at the huge signboard, and this low and broken building and street.

I, Li Ju, was born with a golden key and have never been to such a low-class place to eat.

Forget it, in order to ease the relationship with Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, I'll endure it!

Eldest son Mr. Li got out of the car, took two bodyguards, and went upstairs.

Once upstairs, he found it was smoky and filled with all kinds of low-class people eating inside.

Eldest son Mr. Li subconsciously frowned and covered his nose with a handkerchief.

The waiter walked over at this time: "Sir, how many?"

Eldest son Mr. Li: "I made an appointment with Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu to eat here; has he come?"

The waiter was stunned: "You mean Mr. Guan; he hasn't come yet."

At this time, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was delayed by something, so he had just left the company building and was preparing to come over.

At the same time,

downstairs,

Yuan Haoyun and his partner walked into Yunlai Tea House.

This man, he's here!
