Chapter 550
Saturday.
Five Star Group building, downstairs,
A person with gauze tied over his eyes stood at the entrance of the building.
Hong Jing.
Carrying a fruit basket, he stood at the entrance of the building.
He had already been standing there for 1 hour.
Tai Bao said helplessly: "I already told you, Brother Zu isn't here; you should come back next time."
Hong Jing squeezed out a smile: "It's okay, I can keep waiting."
After learning about the car accident and the coma, it was Director Guan Zu who spent 1 million to have a helicopter rush over, and at the same time, he put up the money for his wife's surgery; otherwise, his wife would probably be dead, and his son wouldn't have survived either.
Director Guan Zu is his great benefactor.
So he must come to thank Director Guan Zu!
Even if it's just to see him once and express his gratitude in person, he would be satisfied.
Tai Bao happened to be bored and started talking to Hong Jing: "How is your wife now?"
Hong Jing: "The steel bar pierced her spine; she's a high-level paraplegic."
Tai Bao: "That's truly a tragedy; high-level paraplegia, what will you do in the future?"
Hong Jing shook his head: "It's all my fault for driving too fast at the time."
Tai Bao: "I heard your wife was still pregnant; how is the baby now?"
Hong Jing finally revealed a smile: "Born safe and sound."
Tai Bao: "That's good, that's good... by the way, have you named him?"
Hong Jing: "I have, called Five Star... Hong Five Star!"
Tai Bao: "???"
His brain buzzed.
What Tai Bao didn't know was that this name was specifically chosen by Hong Jing; he didn't want his son to be a gangster like him, a knife-wielder, always at risk of losing his life, so he hoped his son wouldn't be a gangster in the future, would study hard, and then join the Five Star Group to repay the life-saving grace of Brother Zu and the Five Star Group.
……
On the other side,
Director Guan Zu, Wu Ying, and the others drove their cars and ran to the Hok Tau Reservoir in Pat Sin Leng again, preparing for a team-building fishing trip.
Preparing to catch another 100-plus-pound bighead carp.
However, as soon as the car drove in, they found the roadside was full of all kinds of vehicles.
Everyone looked at each other in dismay.
Once inside, they saw a dense crowd of anglers standing and sitting by the reservoir.
Director Guan Zu: "……"
Wu Ying: "……"
Gao Jin, Ah Wah, and the others: "……"
They were directly silenced.
Damn!
Came too late!
Sure enough, something like a fishing treasure spot shouldn't be leaked.
"Go, go, go, let's go to another reservoir..."
Then Director Guan Zu and the others drove to the number one reservoir, the High Island Reservoir in Sai Kung, which is the reservoir next to Po Pin Chau (the one in "Crime and Punishment").
As a result...
There were also many anglers here!
It's all Wu Ying's fault for showing off on TV, causing many anglers to stop fishing by the sea and come to the reservoir instead.
Director Guan Zu was so angry he kicked Wu Ying.
"Let you show off!"
Fortunately, the High Island Reservoir is too big; the group finally found a suitable fishing spot, cast their bait, and sat waiting for big fish.
Not long after,
Da Tou arrived.
He reported William's recent movements to Director Guan Zu.
"Police force, Governor, court..."
"This William, he's been jumping around quite happily these past few days..."
After listening to Da Tou's report, Director Guan Zu couldn't help but laugh.
Da Tou said: "Just a moment ago, the court sent a notice; in three days, which is next Monday, the injunction hearing will be held again."
Director Guan Zu nodded: "Old rules, give that judge a good lesson, make him behave."
Da Tou: "Yes!"
……
That night,
The judge was kindly invited into a car.
Then Laughing went through the "I have a friend in California selling convertibles" routine again.
Finally, under the truth, the judge expressed his desire to stand with justice.
……
3 days later,
High Court, the injunction hearing for Swire Taipan Swire Group against the Five Star Group and other media was held again.
Swire Taipan William of Swire Group attended the hearing in person this time.
The corners of his mouth were full of confidence; he had already bribed the judge, and he had bribed the highest official of the Supreme Court.
How could he lose this round?
After more than an hour of intense debate,
"Bang bang~~~"
The judge struck the gavel.
"After deliberation by this court, it is deemed that the evidence submitted by Swire Group is insufficient..."
"This court decides to reject Swire Group's injunction application..."
Swire Taipan William, who was preparing to celebrate, saw his complexion change abruptly and stood up suddenly.
"How is that possible?!"
He pointed angrily at the judge, but in the end, those accusatory words didn't come out.
"Good! Very good!"
He was seen with a face full of rage, slamming the door and leaving.
Whether it was because he used too much force or because the door had been slammed too many times, the door hinge let out an unbearable creaking sound, and immediately after, the entire door actually fell off the door frame,
And then it smashed onto William's head.
"Ugh~~~"
William clutched his head, a painful expression on his face, looking at the door, his face a mix of disbelief and anger.
No,
Even the door is bullying me?
Peng Peng Lizhi on the side hurriedly came over: "Mr. Swire Taipan, are you okay?"
Then he complained: "At the last injunction hearing, I also gave money, but it was useless; the judge still supported the Five Star Group. So this time, it's quite reasonable that the judge still supports the Five Star Group."
William naturally knew about this, but this time he had bribed the highest official of the Supreme Court—the Chief Justice; this still didn't work?
Damn it, why are there so many people colluding!
William left while cursing.
Got into the black Rolls-Royce.
Looked at Peng Peng Lizhi: "I ask you, if the court is so unreliable, will the police force and the Governor also be unreliable?"
Peng Peng Lizhi: "Of course they're unreliable! We must be careful to distinguish!"
William suddenly felt heartbroken.
These past three days, he had been full of confidence because he had bribed the Governor, the Supreme Court, and the police Commissioner, feeling that the advantage was his.
Reality gave him a stick directly.
You're all British; how can you pit me?
Didn't we agree that the British don't lie to the British?
William: "The Governor should keep his word, right? After all, he is the Governor!"
Peng Peng Lizhi: "That depends on whether our money is enough."
Inner thoughts: Do you think the British headquarters sent you here because they value you?
You're wrong!
Actually, you're just a scapegoat!
And they just took a fancy to your tough military style to test the reactions of the Five Star Group and the East.
William didn't know Peng Peng Lizhi was badmouthing him, so he pulled himself together and returned to Swire Building.
The President of the Marketing Department came to report the third draft of the "Marketing Discount Plan."
"Spend over 1000 yuan, get a 100 yuan shopping voucher on the spot."
"Special airfare, buy one get one free..."
"Lucky draw: daily spending customers can enter a lucky draw..."
"Member benefits: member points doubled..."
"Brand linkage: cooperate with merchants, buy one get one free on specific clothing brand items, discounts and gifts on designated jewelry brand items."
"Parent-child activities: set up a parent-child area, hold painting and handicraft activities..."
"Entertainment performances: magic, music, dance at specific times..."
After William finished reading, he felt it was not bad.
He looked at the budget; maintaining it for a month was estimated at 100 million Hong Kong dollars.
William: "…………"
President of the Marketing Department: "Swire Taipan, the reason I want to take such a large effort is also to benchmark against Five Star Supermarket, Kangjia Supermarket..."
Then he talked about the grand opening gifts of Five Star Supermarket and Kangjia Supermarket, which were all hundreds of millions.
William: "…………"
Crazy!
Hong Kong is truly crazy!
President of the Marketing Department: "So, Swire Taipan, this 100 million is actually not enough at all."
Inner thoughts: This time, the CFO and I calculated together; we can swallow 30 million of this 100 million.
Heh heh heh~~~~~
