Chapter 760: 753 Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: The Tax King has also become a beast of burden, hehehehe
The team led by Soros to Hong Kong was named————
Rodney Jones!
He had a deep financial professional background and outstanding ability in macroeconomic analysis and the formulation of financial market trading strategies.
Before joining the Quantum Fund, he held the position of international observer at Goldman Sachs, closely tracking global economic trends and having keen insight into economic data, policy directions, and market trends in different countries and regions.
After joining Soros's Quantum Fund team, these abilities of his were fully displayed.
And this time,
he put in a lot of effort into the prediction of the Asian financial bubble.
Of course,
this was his first time in Hong Kong.
Previously, his understanding of Hong Kong was all data collected by data collection personnel in Hong Kong and sent back to the US for analysis.
And this time, he was going to officially open a company in Hong Kong and conduct on-the-spot research.
……
……
Central Plaza, top floor.
11 o'clock,
"Mr. Guan, long time no see~~~"
"Mr. Tang Nade, long time no see!"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's office,
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu shook hands enthusiastically with the Tax King, as if they were old friends for many years.
The two sat on the sofa, Gang Sheng brought two cups of…… cola, and they chatted while drinking.
"Mr. Tang Nade, actually, the first time I saw you, I still felt you were not very reliable, but after understanding during this period, I feel you are a very smart person, and I also want to invest in the US. Perhaps, we should become good friends, become partners, cooperate together in a bigger world, and make big money together……"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu bluffed…… no, he was speaking from the heart.
When the Tax King heard this, his eyes lit up, and he quickly climbed up the pole: "Really? Mr. Guan, to tell you the truth, actually from the first sight, I felt that Mr. Guan was a person worth making friends with."
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's eyes lit up: "Really?"
Tax King: "Of course, really!"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu laughed: "Good! Good! Good! From today on, we are good friends, supporting each other, making big money together in the US? How about it? You have resources, I have money, we cooperate, and we will be invincible!"
The Tax King slapped the table: "Good! From today on, we are good friends! Making big money together!"
The two were happy to be together.
"Come, finish this cup of cola!"
"Cheers!"
Drank it all in one gulp,
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Right, about the matter of asking you to drink last time, I am very sorry, I just found out that you don't drink, I thought you were just making excuses."
"Sorry!"
"I will punish myself with three cups!"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu drank three more cups of cola.
When the Tax King heard this, the grudge about drinking last time suddenly dissipated, and he quickly said: "No, no, no, we weren't friends at that time, Mr. Guan doing that was a normal commercial behavior."
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu apologized: "In short, still a bit sorry!"
Then he started talking about business,
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu said seriously: "Regarding the Manhattan plot project submitted by Mr. Tang Nade, we have completed the inspection, I think the project is no problem, cooperation is absolutely possible. Now we are doing value assessment. I know Mr. Tang Nade is in urgent need of money now, so I will try my best to urge them, get it done within 2 weeks……"
Urging 1 week into 2 weeks, are you moved?
The Tax King saw that Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was really impatient to get this project, and suddenly wanted to push his luck and get more benefits.
So he started blowing the advantages of this project again……
Blew for half an hour,
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu looked at his watch, it was already 11 o'clock: "It's almost lunchtime now, I don't know if it's convenient for Mr. Tang Nade to have a meal together……"
The Tax King readily agreed: "Of course it's convenient!"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "I know you are not very used to Chinese food, so this time, we choose to eat Western food."
"However, French food is too serious, let's go eat Spanish food."
"Downstairs there is a Spanish restaurant with 90 years of history in Hong Kong, called Catalonia Rambla……"
"Heard it's not bad, we can go try it……"
Tax King: "Everything is arranged according to Mr. Guan."
The two went downstairs,
along the way, they met quite a few people, who greeted Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu one after another.
10 minutes later,
the two and Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's bodyguard Ding Hu arrived at Catalonia Rambla.
Potted plants were placed on both sides of the door; after entering, one could see iron chandeliers hanging from the ceiling, and Spanish landscape paintings hanging on the walls, from the lively Rambla Avenue to the ancient Segovia Castle, every painting was vivid……
The restaurant atmosphere was done well!
"Mr. Guan……"
"Mr. Guan~~~"
After Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu walked in, he was greeted by a group of waiters and diners.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu smiled and responded one by one.
When the Tax King saw this scene, thinking about how Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was greeted constantly along the way, combined with the fact that Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and the Five-Star Group's people had very high election voting rates several times.
This made him unable to help but probe: "Mr. Guan, may I ask, how do you manage to be so popular?"
Actually, in his mind, he already had an answer—Five-Star Property.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu smiled: "Because of Five-Star Property, our Five-Star Property has always liked to do good deeds, help citizens, so it's easy to gain the citizens' favor, and they naturally respect me."
The Tax King's answer was confirmed, and his inner desire became higher.
I want to be like this too!
The waiter led the three to their seats and handed over the menu.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu asked the waiter: "What are the most famous dishes here?"
The waiter introduced: "We have top-grade Iberian ham, the pigs are fed with 100% pure acorns, aged for at least 60 months, the quality is excellent……"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "…………"
What's with this thick quality of ripping people off?
There is always an illusion of luxury goods like garbage bags in later generations, purely pua customers.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "If they only eat acorns, won't the pigs grow very strangely?"
Waiter: "…………"
Soon, they ordered a table of dishes.
The Tax King humbly asked for advice: "Mr. Guan, is it really true that as long as you are good to the citizens, you can gain their support?"
This was something he couldn't understand no matter what.
He only knew that people were greedy, and greed was endless.
Purely being good to someone would only stimulate their greed.
But this point seemed to have lost its effect in front of Hong Kong and the Five-Star Group.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu nodded very seriously: "Yes, I have always thought so, and I have always done so. And now, the Five-Star Group has become number one in Hong Kong in 5 years, and countless citizens support it. This is the result formed by our philosophy of 'doing good deeds' that we have always implemented."
Added a sentence inside: Under the condition of cheating!
The Tax King's greed had already begun.
If he replicated this approach in New York, if it really could succeed, then he would be the King of New York!
He took a deep breath and finally made up his mind:
"Mr. Guan, let's cooperate!"
Looked at Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu with eager eyes.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was "surprised": "Cooperate? Haven't we already cooperated?"
The Tax King shook his head and said seriously: "No, I'm talking about the cooperation of the Five-Star Property model! I want to invite Five-Star Property to send a team to New York to help me establish a new property company."
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu looked at the system prompt:
"An employee (Lee Kun-hee) of the Eight-Star Charity Property Company completed a good deed…… Good deed progress (999/1000) +1…… You gained Busan support rate +1% (25%)……"
Samsung Chairman, you've worked hard.
It's been almost two years, and you are still working as a beast of burden for me.
Moved~~~~
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu looked at this new beast of burden…… no, it was the Tax King, and pretended to hesitate: "This…… Mr. Tang Nade, this kind of company, doesn't need our Five-Star Group, right? You can do it yourself."
The Tax King said righteously: "We are friends, naturally we should cooperate together."
Inside: "I also want to do it myself, but I have no money. Just happen to pull you, this big sucker, to join."
"Mr. Guan, aren't you wanting to enter the US? This is a good opportunity!"
"I have political influence in New York, you have money and experience, we combine our strengths, and we will definitely be able to create a big career in New York!"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu looked "moved," slapped the table: "Good! Then let's cooperate!"
Tax King: "Hahahaha~~~ Come, cheers!"
Two bottles of cola.
Cheers!
The two hooked shoulders and backs.
Tax King inside: "After success in the future, I will kick you out, then the company will be mine, the prestige will be mine, hehehehe~~~~~"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's mouth hooked.
I have a cheat, you idiot!
Ding Hu was on the side, looking at Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's smile, his mouth twitched.
No need to think, Brother Zu must be preparing to pit someone.
"Come, cheers again!"
"Cheers!"
"Right, Mr. Guan, let's talk about the cooperation? You also know I don't have much money now……"
"We are friends, money is easy to talk about……"
Then the two started chatting about how to open the company and how to divide the shares and dividends.
Talked for half an hour, finalized the basic plan: establish a company in New York, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu provides funds, Tax King provides political resources, pulls in all parties, and provides escort.
……
Shangri-La Hotel,
The Tax King whistled, drank cola happily, took the elevator, went upstairs, and returned to the room.
Sitting on the sofa, picked up the phone next to him.
He made an international call to his secretary in the US: "Now in New York, how is the mayoral election situation?"
Secretary: "Not clear yet, but according to polls, the Democratic Party has the advantage, our three surveys show the Democratic Party's support rate is above 60%."
Tax King: "Got it."
After hanging up the phone, the Tax King leaned back in the sofa, his fingertips tapping on the sofa.
"Tap…… tap…… tap……"
"Hope the Democratic Party can win……"
"The Five-Star Property model is naturally suitable for the Democratic Party……"
"When the time comes, I will switch from the Republican Party to the Democratic Party……"
It's not that I betrayed the Republican Party!
It's that the Republican Party betrayed me!
The Tax King's mouth gradually hooked……
……
……
On the other side,
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu whistled, returning to the top floor office in a happy mood.
Liang Xiaorou: "Brother Zu, it seems you are in a good mood……"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's mouth hooked: "Yeah, because a cooperation was negotiated."
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu heard the report at yesterday's senior management meeting that the Tax King was staring at Five-Star Property every day, so he realized this was an opportunity.
In South Korea, he used the Samsung Group to expand Five-Star Property there.
Then why not in the US?
Tax King acting as a guide, still afraid it won't succeed?
So, today Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu met with the Tax King, and after his hints and guidance, the Tax King really took the bait.
"Hahaha~~~"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu returned to the office in a beautiful mood,
not long after, Gang Sheng brewed a cup of tea and brought it in.
"Ring ring ring~~~"
A phone call came in.
Fang Zhanbo: "Brother Zu, just got news, Soros's team has arrived in Hong Kong."
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu sat up from the chair suddenly.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "They're here?"
Fang Zhanbo: "Yes, I checked, they came today, and as soon as they came, they released a signal in the financial circle, inviting Hong Kong tycoons to attend a cocktail party tomorrow night……"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Whoa~~~ Good guy, very high-profile!"
Fang Zhanbo: "It is very high-profile!"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "I'm very curious, is Soros's fund so high-profile, not afraid of causing the vigilance of Hong Kong tycoons?"
Fang Zhanbo: "Not clear, but tomorrow should be roughly visible."
At this time,
Wu Lianqian came in and reported to Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Brother Zu, just received an invitation, from the US Quantum Fund, holding a cocktail party at the Peninsula Hotel tomorrow, inviting you to attend……"
Speak of the devil and he appears.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu thought for a while and said to Wu Lianqian: "Just say I'm busy, let Zhanbo attend."
Wu Lianqian: "Yes!"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu said to Fang Zhanbo on the other side of the phone: "You go to the cocktail party tomorrow night, get close to them more, don't expose our purpose."
Fang Zhanbo: "Okay, Brother Zu!"
After hanging up the phone,
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu called Da Tou and asked him to find Ashdown's secretary.
The Landlord Club is still missing one person to endorse it, and Ashdown, this Governor, is perfect.
……
The next day,
Daytime.
Sai Kung, sea area.
Ashdown and secretary Faiman sat on a yacht and went fishing.
Not long after,
a yacht drove over from afar.
It was Luo Minsheng.
Current president of the Landlord Club!
(Picture · "Overheard 2")
The yacht approached and stopped.
Luo Minsheng stood at the bow, looking at the people on the other yacht,
Governor Ashdown!
An hour ago, he was notified to come here to see his "backer," and at that time he was very stunned.
Because he didn't expect that the backer Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu arranged for him was actually the Governor!
Brother Zu is awesome!!
Faiman looked at the photo and compared Luo Minsheng.
"Mr. Luo, right?"
Luo Minsheng quickly said: "Mr. Faiman, hello, I am Luo Minsheng, I was sent by Mr. Guan!"
Faiman nodded: "Come up."
Luo Minsheng jumped onto the boat and quickly saluted Ashdown: "Governor, it is a great honor to see you!"
Ashdown looked at Luo Minsheng: "Mr. Luo, young and promising……"
"Let's align the cooperation matters well, so as not to make mistakes……"
Ashdown has professional ethics; he took Brother Zu's money, so naturally he has to do things well.
Because if he took the money and didn't do things, he was afraid of being killed by Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu!
……
Evening,
The loyal subject of Great Britain, Ashdown, made a call to Downing Street in the UK.
"Prime Minister!"
"I finally found an opportunity to take revenge for Great Britain!"
Prime Minister Major: "??"
At this time, he was still skeptical of Ashdown.
Ashdown said solemnly: "Prime Minister, you must remember Soros; he caused our British pound to depreciate crazily and made us lose face internationally."
Major naturally knew Soros; that was his term!
Ashdown: "Now he has come to Hong Kong! I seriously suspect that he must be prepared to use the same set of methods used against the pound to deal with Hong Kong!"
"I want to cooperate with him and snipe Hong Kong!"
"As long as Hong Kong's economy collapses, then we in the UK will win!"
The loyal subject Ashdown spoke with force!
On the other side of the phone, Prime Minister Major's eyes lit up.
How ruthless Soros is and how embarrassed the UK was back then, he knew clearly.
"Good!"
"Hahahaha~~~"
"Very good, Ashdown, you finally have some promise!"
Ashdown's expression froze.
No,
why are you scolding people for no reason?!
Sure enough, my betrayal is correct! ===== CHAPTER 761 =====
