Chapter 750
Guan Zu looks at Mr. Tax's embarrassment, the corners of his mouth curling into an arc that others can hardly notice.
The waiter walks hurriedly and brings the wine Guan Zu carefully prepared.
In the transparent glass wine bottle, the amber liquid has an alluring luster, but in Mr. Tax's eyes, this is undoubtedly a "life-urging talisman."
Mr. Tax looks at this wine, his face turning green.
He really doesn't know how to drink.
The reason is that his eldest brother died early due to alcoholism, making him avoid alcohol.
Even in social occasions in the past, he mostly let the waiter pour sugar-free cola into the red wine glass to make up the numbers.
But now, looking at Guan Zu's enthusiastic smiling face, thinking that his business empire, which is deep in the quagmire, is waiting for this richest man in Hong Kong to pull him, the words of refusal reached his lips, and were swallowed back by him.
He is really at the end of his rope.
Guan Zu picks up the wine bottle and pours wine for Mr. Tax himself.
Mr. Tax looks at Mr. Zheng, but Mr. Zheng just smiles and raises his glass to signal, without any intention of helping him out.
Who knows what Brother Zu is thinking!
I'm not familiar with you!
"Come, for our cooperation, for a beautiful future, cheers!"
Guan Zu is smiling, but his words carry an irresistible meaning.
Mr. Tax has no choice but to bite the bullet, pick up the wine glass, and pour the wine in the glass down in one go.
The spicy liquid slides down his throat, he can't help but cough, and his eye sockets well up with tears due to discomfort.
Guan Zu looks at Mr. Tax's embarrassment and is satisfied in his heart.
Netizens of later generations, I will avenge you first!
Hahaha~~~
Soon,
Dish after dish is served.
Still Chinese food.
Mr. Tax is not used to eating it, but this is Hong Kong, it is the home court of Guan Zu and Mr. Zheng, so he can only follow the host's arrangements.
Among them is a steamed East Star Grouper.
The steaming hot fish is served, the fish body is covered with alluring oil, green onion shreds and red pepper shreds are dotted on it, very pleasing to the eye.
Guan Zu smiles and pushes the turntable, aiming the fish head directly at Mr. Tax.
"Mr. Tang Nade, according to our Chinese customs, the fish head should be aimed at the most important person, this is respect for the distinguished guest."
Mr. Tax looks at this fish head, only feeling that the fish head is staring with big eyes, as if staring at him, the wine just poured into his stomach is churning, and he suddenly feels his stomach churning.
He hurriedly moves the fish head to Guan Zu.
"Mr. Guan, such a distinguished dish should face you..."
In the following time,
Both sides began to talk about the cooperation matters.
Guan Zu: "Mr. Tang Nade, I think the 'Riverside South' project in New York has a certain profit space, but we have also heard about the financial difficulties you are facing. How can I ensure that your situation will not pose a risk to the project?"
Mr. Tax: "Rest assured, that is only temporary... and I provide a solution: I won't interfere in this entire project, I just want to get 50% of the profit dividends later, so that my debt problem won't be able to affect you."
Guan Zu shakes his head: "Impossible, 50% is too much, this way all the profits go to you, we have no profit at all!"
Regarding this, Mr. Tax was prepared long ago, and began to blow, waving his hands in the air: "Mr. Guan, I believe you have also seen the prospects of the 'Riverside South' project, after all, Manhattan is the most dazzling pearl in New York!"
"I plan to build super luxury apartments, build a super commercial center downstairs, and plan large commercial bodies around it to form a one-stop living circle for work and life..."
He talks with saliva flying, his eyes full of longing for the future.
He doesn't stop at all.
Guan Zu listens quietly and nods: "The idea is indeed grand. But I have another doubt, heard that Mr. Tang Nade's reputation in New York is not very good, how can I ensure that Mr. Tang Nade won't go back on his word this time? What if Mr. Tang Nade sues us after the event..."
Mr. Tax pats his chest: "Rest assured, absolutely not! I, Tang Nade, have always been very credible in doing business. As for those rumors in New York, they are just slanders from competitors!"
Resonant!
Without blushing!
Guan Zu: "............"
He can really blow!
Guan really wants to record this, and play it again after Mr. Tax becomes the Great Commander... wait... seems not quite right, by the time he becomes the Great Commander, it is estimated that the people of the whole US have already seen his true face.
Too much black material.
This bit of stuff doesn't even count as black material.
Guan Zu is unable to complain: This guy is simply invincible!
10 minutes...
20 minutes...
Finally reached a consensus on cooperation.
Guan Zu sets the tone: "From a long-term perspective, the potential of this project is indeed huge. Mr. Zheng and I will first form a professional team to go to the US to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the project, and then discuss the specific cooperation details and share allocation."
Mr. Tax breathes a sigh of relief when he hears this.
Finally reached it!
"However..."
Guan Zu changes the subject: "I have another requirement."
Mr. Tax is MMP in his heart, but enthusiastic on the surface: "Mr. Guan, please speak."
Guan Zu: "I personally like TV stations very much, since there is such a good opportunity to go to New York, I hope to acquire a TV station in New York, or the surrounding area."
There is a UKTV TV station on the West Coast.
Guan Zu also hopes to have one on the East Coast.
This Mr. Tax also has quite a few connections in New York, which can just be used as a springboard for Mr. Tax.
"In addition, I also hope to acquire a newspaper."
"I hope Mr. Tang Nade can help me pull some strings."
Mr. Tax, who is good at manipulating public opinion, naturally understands the importance of the media,
This Chinese...
Hmph!
His plans are not shallow!
Guan Zu says: "As long as you help me successfully acquire a TV station, no matter the size, I will invest in this real estate project. And, it won't be for nothing, there will be a $1 million reward for you!"
Originally Mr. Tax was a bit dissatisfied, but when he heard the $1 million reward, he immediately perked up.
Now he is a pauper, $1 million is already very worth it for him.
And he can eat from both sides!
As for "this Chinese's plans are not shallow"?
Sorry!
I don't want to talk about patriotism, I just want to make money!
Mr. Tax: "Then what if I help you acquire a newspaper? How much can you reward?"
Guan Zu: "$200,000."
Mr. Tax: "............"
Forget it, find one that's about to go bankrupt for him!
"Good!"
Mr. Tax pats the table, resonant: "I have always felt that the Chinese in New York are a very important force, welcome Mr. Guan to invest in New York!" After the cooperation was negotiated,
The wine was exchanged, and the atmosphere became warmer.
2 hours later, the banquet ended.
Mr. Tax left the restaurant drunk, brought a bottle of Coca-Cola, and returned to the hotel room.
A new day.
Causeway Bay,
Ding Hu waited downstairs early, not long after Inspector Hu drove the car, stopped by the side of the road, and then sent a boxed lunch to Ding Hu.
Then drove away quickly.
Ding Hu looks at the boxed lunch, scratches his head, and laughs foolishly.
Opens the lunch box, ready to eat.
At this time,
Tap tap tap~~~~~
Guan Zu went downstairs, and then saw Ding Hu holding a boxed lunch, eating there.
Ding Hu sees Guan Zu go downstairs, has a flash of inspiration, runs to Guan Zu's side, constantly shoveling rice into his mouth.
"Slurp slurp slurp~~~"
Even deliberately making sounds, as if afraid Guan Zu wouldn't see it.
Roaring in his heart: Hurry up, hurry up~~~
Guan Zu: "Hmm??"
Looks at Ding Hu in confusion, then looks at the lunch box, it's pink.
This lunch box, could it be—Inspector Hu's?
Guan Zu is shocked!
Progress so fast?
Suddenly realizes, this Ding Hu is showing off, taking revenge!
Heh, I won't let you have your way.
Guan Zu pretends not to see, turns his head directly to buy a newspaper.
Ding Hu is anxious, hurriedly shouts: "Brother Zu, look at me, look at me..."
Guan Zu just doesn't look, 'concentrating' on reading the newspaper.
Ding Hu has a flash of inspiration, runs to Guan Zu's side while eating, and shouts: "Hahaha~~ Brother Zu, how did you know my lunch box was sent by Ms. Hu?"
"Brother Zu, do you want to taste two bites~~~"
"Wow, Ms. Hu's lunch box, so delicious~~~"
"Hey, I said I didn't want her lunch box, she insisted on stuffing it, saying she was afraid I'd get thin from hunger."
Thin?
Guan Zu and many neighbors look at Ding Hu's fat appearance.
Black lines hang down from their faces.
Soon, Ah Xing comes, Ding Hu repeats another round: "Hey, Ah Xing, how did you know..."
Then drove to the Five-Star Group in Central Plaza...
Met Gong Wei, Chen Yongren, Gao Jin, and others one after another...
"Wow, you also know about Ms. Hu sending me a love breakfast lunch box?"
"Really delicious..."
Gong Wei and others: "..............."
Speechless, family members!
Soon, the entire senior management of the Five-Star Group knew about this.
Guan Zu returned to the office, not long after, Brother Da Tou came to report:
"Brother Zu, we have found out who the contact phone number left in the two agents' mobile phones belongs to; it is John Hinshaw, the Chief Operating Officer of HSBC."
"This is the information..."
Hands over a stack of information.
Guan Zu looks at it carefully.
Brother Da Tou: "Brother Zu, what to do next? Do you want me to throw him into the sea?"
Guan Zu rolls his eyes: "We are currently wearing suits and being good people!"
Brother Da Tou: "............"
Guan Zu says righteously: "This John must be a small fry, the mastermind must be the HSBC big boss!"
"Since the HSBC big boss did something wrong, he must be punished."
"What is the rule of our Five-Star?"
"If you do something wrong, you have to pay a fine!"
Brother Da Tou hears this,
Makes sense!
However...
Brother Da Tou can't help but ask: "Doesn't this John get punished?"
Guan Zu is full of righteousness: "We wear suits, we are good people, how can Hong Kong tolerate a bad person like him! Send him to sink into the sea!"
Brother Da Tou widens his eyes!
No, Brother Zu, you...
Guan Zu presses the red button, Wu Lianqian walks in: "Brother Zu."
Guan Zu: "Contact the HSBC big boss, just say I, Guan Zu, want to invite him to dinner."
Wu Lianqian: "Yes!"
HSBC Building.
Big boss office.
Last time, the new generation big boss Anthony felt the danger of Hong Kong, disguised a car accident to escape, and left Hong Kong.
HSBC sent a new big boss over.
The new big boss is named Brandon Nelson, who served as a director and chief executive of AIA Group, Singapore Telecommunications Limited, and the Dubai Financial Services Authority.
At this time, he is working in the office as usual.
Since Five-Star Bank, Five-Star Securities, and obtaining the right to print money, HSBC's days have become increasingly difficult.
He, the newcomer, also sees the horror of the Five-Star Group more and more clearly.
