Chapter 548: 533 Swire Group Swire Taipan Arrives in Hong Kong: The Advantage is With Me!

Afternoon,

Gao Jin returned to the Five Star Group building,

A group of employees greeted him one after another,

"Boss, is Sister Ting pregnant?"

"Congratulations, congratulations!"

"Congratulations to the boss for becoming a father."

Gao Jin: "…………"

No?

Who spread this out?

He thought only a few senior executives spread it, but everyone in the company knew?

Gao Jin grabbed Ah Xing by the collar: "Ah Xing, was it you who spread it?"

Ah Xing: "Now, Brother Zu, don't wrongly accuse people, although I said it, I didn't tell them to spread it everywhere!"

Gao Jin was speechless, and still said it wasn't you.

This pregnancy matter should be low-key, after all, it hasn't been born yet, but as a result, the whole company knew in just a few hours.

When Gao Jin got off work in the afternoon, he walked home, and as a result, all the neighbors on the way greeted him and asked about the child.

Gao Jin: "…………"

Gao Jin couldn't believe it: "No, the news has spread to your ears?"

Neighbors laughed loudly: "We knew it at lunch... Now who in Causeway Bay doesn't know."

Gao Jin: "…………"

6!

You guys spread it too fast.

Gao Jin didn't know that at this time, the news had spread to other places.

For example...

Brother Hao!

Brother Hao was driving a taxi at this time, taking Ma and his niece Song Haoran out to play.

The radio was playing the song "Can't Love You Enough",

After the song finished,

"Dear listeners, just received a news message... Gao Jin of the Five Star Group, his second wife is pregnant..."

Song Zihao: "??"

Citizens of Hong Kong Island who support Gao Jin: "???"

The news, spread.

……

……

New Territories North Police Station Regional Crime Unit Office

"Dragon sir! Urgent letter from headquarters!"

The document police officer pushed open the door of the Regional Crime Unit office and handed a transfer order stamped with the police force steel seal to Dragon sir, who was drinking tea with his subordinates.

Dragon sir pulled the letter from the envelope, his pupils shrank when he saw the two characters "Tang Fei", and Wu sir, holding a coffee cup, leaned in as if unintentionally, but almost dropped his cup after seeing the content clearly.

"Immediately transfer Inspector Tang Fei to the Criminal Intelligence Bureau at headquarters, permitted to bring three direct subordinates"

Dragon sir's voice trembled when he read the two characters "direct".

The whole group exploded instantly, Xin Ye slapped the table sharply: "Brother Fei is going to take a rocket to get promoted!"

He immediately took out his mobile phone to report the good news, but was pressed down by a colleague: "Wait for Dragon sir to notify first!"

Wu sir's fingernails almost pinched into his palms, but he forced a smile on the surface: "Tang sir is truly lucky, having the Five Star Group backing him in the front, and getting promoted by headquarters in the back."

Before he finished speaking, he was sternly interrupted by Dragon sir: "Wu sir! Watch your words!"

Wu sir: "…………"

Other police officers all giggled.

In a frontline department like the Regional Crime Unit, a leader like Tang Fei is the most popular, while a leader like Wu sir is the most annoying to subordinates.

Now seeing Wu sir eat sh*t, they all couldn't help but feel a burst of pain in their hearts.

At this time, Dragon sir took out his mobile phone and dialed Tang Fei.

……

Tang Fei's home,

The fitness dumbbell hit the floor with a muffled sound, Tang Fei wiped his sweat and grabbed the vibrating phone: "Dragon sir?"

"Ah Fei, return to the police station!" Dragon sir laughed loudly, "Headquarters specifically named you to be transferred to the Intelligence Bureau!"

Tang Fei stood stunned on the spot, the mirror reflecting the gauze on his forehead that hadn't healed yet.

Go to headquarters?

A burst of surprise and excitement kept surging!

Until Xin Ye's pager bombing came—

"Brother Fei! Can you take me to headquarters? I blocked a bullet for you!"

"Trash Wu sir's face turned green, hahaha!"

And the other members of the small group also called one after another.

"Brother Fei, please take me~~~"

"I also want to sit in the office at headquarters..."

Everyone knew that New Territories North was a place where birds don't poop, and going to headquarters was the way to get promoted quickly!

Tang Fei quickly went downstairs, drove the car, and left quickly.

20 minutes later,

When Tang Fei stepped into the Regional Crime Unit, the cheers almost lifted the ceiling.

"Congratulations, Brother Fei!"

"Brother Fei, remember your brothers when you get rich in the future!"

"Brother Fei, take me..."

"I also want to sit in the office at headquarters..."

Every police officer was convinced by Tang Fei's ability, so they all sent blessings to Tang Fei.

Only Wu sir was so angry he got pink eye.

Dragon sir patted Tang Fei's shoulder hard: "Don't lose the face of New Territories North when you go to headquarters."

At the same time, he was worrying that a capable subordinate like Tang Fei had run away, so he had to promote new capable and energetic police officers.

He already had candidates in his heart.

The Huang Mingke team of the Yuen Long Police Station, including Zhuge Xiong, Teddy, and Fang Xinyou.

(From "Eastern Condors" - Simon Yam (dirty cop), Ng Man-tat (dirty cop), Donnie Yen, Jacky Cheung)

Soon,

Tang Fei chose three subordinates, with Xin Ye as the first choice, and then completed the handover procedures, reporting to the Criminal Intelligence Bureau tomorrow.

……

……

At this time,

On the other side, a private jet came from the UK and landed at Kai Tak Airport in Hong Kong.

The new Swire Taipan of the Swire Group (Hong Kong Island + Southeast Asia) had arrived.

The Swire Taipan's name was—William Lawrence.

Brought a few secretaries and bodyguards.

That's right, he wasn't a member of the Swire family at all, but someone found from within the Swire Group who was capable and loyal, and sent to Hong Kong Island.

Adrian Swire, after being furious, gradually calmed down.

Now Hong Kong Island was clearly a fierce land, so it was impossible to send a member of the Swire family over.

So, he sent William Lawrence over... um... just to sweep for mines, to see if Hong Kong Island was safe.

William Lawrence got off the plane.

The loyal Peng Peng Lizhi again brought CFO Mike and others, as well as bodyguards, to welcome him.

Peng Peng Lizhi was enthusiastic and loyal, walked up, shook hands hard, his eyes filled with hot tears:

"Mr. William!"

"You've come, the hearts of the Swire Group are stable!"

William was from a military background and didn't speak at all, cold.

Glanced at Peng Peng Lizhi and the others. His gaze was like an eagle, carrying scrutiny.

Everyone felt pressure.

However, Peng Peng Lizhi sneered; no matter what kind of awesome character you are, when you come to Hong Kong Island, you will soon be trained like a dog by Brother Zu... wait, it seems like I scolded myself in.

Forget it, considering the 30 million USD... Woof woof woof~~~

The majestic and sharp William didn't know Peng Peng Lizhi's inner thoughts,

Waved his hand.

"Let's talk when we get back!"

Along the way, William didn't say a word.

Then returned to the Shangri-La Hotel and checked into the Prestige Suite. As for the presidential suite, that wasn't something he could enjoy at his level.

Rested for a day to get over the jet lag.

The next day,

William didn't go to the Swire Group, but drove to the Forensics Department, took away Edward's body and the other bodies, and sent them directly to Kai Tak Airport to be air-freighted to the UK.

Afternoon,

!

Swire Group, top-floor conference room,

A senior management meeting was officially held.

A group of senior executives sat upright, their eyes anxious or uneasy, all waiting for the new Swire Taipan William Lawrence to speak.

They didn't know what kind of personality the new leader had, so everyone didn't dare to speak.

At this time,

William was wearing a crisp suit, his face cold, and he slowly scanned everyone.

"Everyone, today's meeting is to discuss the many severe problems currently faced by the Swire Group in Hong Kong Island."

William's voice was low and powerful, echoing in the conference room,

"I don't know how you insects managed this Swire Group."

"The stock price actually fell by 30+%..."

"And the originally highly profitable Taikoo Shing and Pacific Place have started to lose huge amounts of money..."

"And the reputation, you actually let those newspapers continue to slander our Swire Group!"

One thing after another,

Made William very dissatisfied.

"First of all, regarding the total annihilation of Mr. Edward's mercenary group and his own sudden death on the street, Mr. Peng Peng Lizhi, as the executive director, you remained completely unscathed and aloof. This inevitably makes one suspicious: did you collude with Director Guan Zu in secret long ago, communicating and conspiring with him?"

William stared at Peng Peng Lizhi, his eyes revealing a trace of scrutiny and suspicion.

Peng Peng Lizhi felt more wronged than Dou E: "Swire Taipan, you really wronged me! First of all, regarding the mercenary matter, I didn't know anything from beginning to end; everything was personally arranged by Mr. Edward..."

"As for secretly colluding with that Gao Jin... how is that possible? Mr. Edward is enough to prove my loyalty... and after Mr. Edward died, I strongly suggested in the meeting to retaliate against Gao Jin, but it was denied by CFO Mike."

Hand pointed to Mike.

Scapegoat, it's your turn to appear!

William's gaze looked at Mike instantly.

"Is that so?"

Mike's forehead broke out in fine sweat; he didn't expect that opposing for the sake of opposing at the time would turn into a big pit now.

He hurriedly defended: "No, I was acting out of the interests of the Swire Group at the time, so I made such a decision."

"If we really retaliated against Gao Jin at the time, Gao Jin would instead expose that the mercenaries were sent by the Swire Group, and then the Swire Group would be in more trouble..."

He explained a lot.

"Bang~~~"

William slapped the table directly.

"Is it whatever Gao Jin says? Is the Swire Group's public relations department eating sh*t?"

"Afraid of everything! Trash!"

Military style.

Domineering.

Mike: "…………"

Internally cursing: You don't know Gao Jin's reputation among the citizens of Hong Kong Island at all! If he says one word, it's worth 100 million in your PR fees!

William then changed to another question to question Mike: "Not just this matter, there is also the 15 million USD ransom being robbed, and the 30 million funds going missing mysteriously. You personally handled this matter. Is this serious dereliction of duty, or stealing from the company? As CFO, give me an explanation."

Mike's face turned greener.

He hurriedly defended: "Swire Taipan, this wasn't my fault at all; the incident happened too suddenly, completely beyond our expectations..."

Beside him, Peng Peng Lizhi watched the show.

Fun~~~

Really want to call Brother Zu and listen to the fun together...

"Too sudden?"

William slapped the table sharply, and the documents on the table shook. "Is this your excuse? Is this the reason for the huge funds disappearing into thin air?"

"You, from today on, do a good job of handing over, otherwise I'll send you to prison!"

When Mike heard this, he was anxious.

"This isn't my fault at all. If you dare to fire me, I'll go to the ICAC tomorrow!"

CFO, that's someone with a pile of Swire Group financial black material.

Can you fire him?

Aren't you afraid of blowing Swire Group to the sky!

William's eyes were cold, seeing if this fat pig could withstand torture.

However, he didn't want to force him too much, and internally decided to marginalize this Mike.

Immediately after, William cast his gaze at the person in charge of the public relations department: "ATV has been slandering Swire's history for more than two months, and besides being a turtle, has the PR department had a single powerful counterattack? Do you only know how to let the company's image be trampled on at will? Are you trash?"

The PR person in charge lowered his head: "Swire Taipan, we... are currently restarting the court injunction application..."

Then explained why the second time failed.

And then William sprayed them again.

Finally, William looked at the legal department, and it was another round of crazy spraying.

For more than an hour, the entire group of senior executives was constantly sprayed by William.

Counting it up, he found that Peng Peng Lizhi was sprayed the least.

After more than an hour of accountability,

William combined hardness with softness and began to carefully inquire about the situation faced by the Swire Group.

The inquiry was very detailed, of course, how much water there was was unclear. After all, what the grassroots and senior management understood could be poles apart.

After a detailed inquiry, William felt that he had a detailed understanding of Hong Kong Island, Swire, and Five Star.

Internally, he began to calculate the plan to revitalize Swire.

The meeting ended,

William returned to the hotel and planned the plan overnight.

……

A new day,

The meeting continued.

William summarized and began to expound his "breakthrough" strategy:

"Facing the current predicament, we cannot sit and wait for death. I have decided to take the following measures."

"First, win over the police force."

"Swire Taipan," Peng Peng Lizhi couldn't help but interject, "Now the police force is very good with Gao Jin, I'm afraid it's not easy to win them over."

William was disdainful: "The police force will always have factions..."

Peng Peng Lizhi was internally disdainful.

Factions?

Factions my ass, the grassroots are all in Gao Jin's faction!

And there is also the "Fang Jiexia Act".

The loyal Peng Peng Lizhi praised: "Swire Taipan is wise, Gao Jin has always been at odds with Commissioner Michael, I think we can try to contact Commissioner Michael."

William: "That's exactly what I thought... Michael represents the interests of the UK, he will definitely like our cooperation."

"Secondly," William continued, "I will contact the Governor to seek cooperation. He is British and represents the interests of the UK. We Swire Group are British-funded, this is the basis for cooperation."

Peng Peng Lizhi was speechless again.

Based on his experience of cooperating with Brother Zu, he felt that the Governor must have cooperated with Brother Zu

You're already dripping with grease from all the bribes; do you think you can satisfy the Governor?

Peng Peng Lizhi loyally shouted: "I support it! His Excellency the Governor certainly supports us, the British!"

William looked at Peng Peng Lizhi, and he started to look more pleasing to the eye.

Swire Group also has loyal ministers!

"Finally," William paused, "in response to the halving of foot traffic in the two shopping malls, I have decided to launch the 'Swire Gratitude Week' promotional plan to save the market. Spend over a thousand and get a hundred back, buy one get one free on Cathay Pacific tickets—use this to attract customers and reverse the company's market decline... Marketing Department, give me a proposal within three days."

The head of the Marketing Department dared not refute: "Yes! Mr. Swire Taipan!"

The meeting lasted for an hour, and the more William spoke, the more confident he became.

With my world-shaking wisdom!

The advantage is mine!
