Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Peninsula Hong Kong opened in 1928 and is known as the "Lady of the Far East". It is the oldest existing hotel in Hong Kong and one of the most luxurious and famous hotels in Hong Kong and the world.  The Peninsula Hotel is located at 22 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, facing Victoria Harbour, and its mid- and high-rise floors enjoy sea views.  The hotel has 300 guest rooms, which are larger than ordinary hotels in Hong Kong.  Facilities include a Roman palace-style swimming pool and health club.  Most of the underground shopping malls are famous brand stores.

    As the oldest hotel in Hong Kong, it has become a symbol from the first day it was born.  Its appearance even awakened the sleepy Kowloon Peninsula of Hong Kong, and once surpassed the ten-mile foreign market in Shanghai, becoming a place where celebrities in the city socialized and exiled nobles lived and died.  It is watching Hong Kong, experiencing Hong Kong, and following Hong Kong's maturity and growth.  It is the pride of Hong Kong's hotel industry!

    On a golden October afternoon, people were sitting together in a restaurant at the Peninsula Hotel.

    The waiter quickly brought the exquisite dishes to the table and then stepped away.  The new waiter came up and started to work on the 82-year-old Lafite, pouring red wine into more than ten glasses on the table.

    A man in his early sixties stood up, picked up a tall glass filled with wine, and said to everyone: "Boss Hong, Manager Zheng, and all employees of the company, come, let's all have a drink!"

    Everyone stood up together, and more than ten cups collided in the air above the dining table, making a clear and loud sound.

    Everyone drained the wine in their glasses, and the waiter came over again to refill their glasses.

    A fat middle-aged man in his forties picked up his wine glass and said to the short man who had stood up earlier: "Boss Zeng, I, Hong Jingyao, have never admired anyone, not even Li Chaoren or Huo Chaoren, but now I  I have to say that I am impressed by you, Boss Zeng! Here, I propose a toast to you, and I hope your career will make further progress!"

    The short man was Zeng Shaoqing. At this time, it was already October 20, 1987. Various stocks in the United States had fallen according to historical trajectories. Zeng Shaoqing, who took a bold plunge, made a lot of money. Within a few days, his stock price dropped wildly.  Earn $150 million.  This made Hong Jingyao, the owner of the stock brokerage company, dumbfounded.

    He is engaged in finance and does not care much about Li Ka-shing and those who are engaged in business, because they are not in the same field. Even if Li Ka-shing and others are good at making money, the impact on Hong Jingyao will not be great.

    But Zeng Shaoqing was different. He made money crazily under seemingly impossible circumstances and achieved the most generous profits. The shock this caused to financial people like Hong Jingyao could not be more obvious.

    Zeng Shaoqing stood up and said with a smile: "Then let me borrow Boss Hong's good advice!"

    The two of them had a drink.

    Afterwards, everyone exchanged cups and cups, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.  The employees of the stock brokerage company looked at Zeng Shaoqing with fanatical eyes.

    This young man is not only the god of stocks, possessing the miraculous ability to turn decay into magic, and the impossible into necessity, he is now their boss, the one who provides them with food and clothing.

    Zeng Shaoqing has bought Hong Jingyao's stock brokerage company, reorganized it and established an investment bank.  These original employees of Hong Jingyao's stock brokerage company were the first batch of employees of the new investment bank.

    Therefore, everyone toasted to Zeng Shaoqing.  Of course, it was all them who did it, Zeng Shaoqing did it as he pleased.

    Zeng Shaoqing is their idol in their hearts and their bread and butter. Naturally, they cannot force Zeng Shaoqing to do the same thing as them.

    The banquet lasted for almost two hours before it ended. Hong Jingyao, the former boss of the stock company, left first, while Zheng Xinhe and other company employees stayed.

    Zeng Shaoqing still has something to explain to them.

    "Boss, if you have anything to do, just tell me directly and we will help you handle it properly." Because he drank too much, Zheng Xinhe said with a red face and patted his chest.

    Zeng Shaoqing smiled and said: "What I want to do is very simple, that is to withdraw our funds as soon as possible within a day or two and invest them in the Hong Kong stock market and the Japanese stock market."

    "Invest in the Hong Kong stock market?" Zheng Xinhe was stunned.

    Zeng Shaoqing nodded and said: "Before the stock market closes tomorrow, all our funds must enter the Hong Kong stock market and Japan. Well, those entering the Japanese stock market can wait a little longer, but those entering the Hong Kong stock market cannot wait."

    Zeng Shaoqing remembers that Hong Kong¡¯s stock market crash is about to enter its worst phase. Starting from the 22nd, the stock market will be closed for four days. This is the only major stock market in the world to be closed.

    Zeng Shaoqing entered the Hong Kong stock market not to stir up trouble, but because he had his own reasonsThe target is Kumagai Gumi (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd.  This is a joint venture subsidiary established in Hong Kong by the Kumagai Group.

    Shaodong of the Xionggu Group actually dared to do that to him. Naturally, he wanted to regain his face. Taking advantage of this stock market crash, it was the best time for him to suppress the Xionggu Group.

    ¡°After entering the stock market, I will tell you exactly what to do when the time comes.¡± Zeng Shaoqing said.  He hopes to take this opportunity, even if he can't directly cause the Kumagai Group to collapse, he will still have to break his muscles and bones!  Therefore, the news that he wanted to take advantage of the stock market crash to deal with the Kumagai Group must be kept secret in advance.  He didn't know these employees very well, and he didn't fully trust them.

    Since it was the boss¡¯s instructions, employees of Zheng Xinhe and other companies naturally did not dare to disobey them.  Now, Zeng Shaoqing is the only shareholder of the new investment bank. If they cannot satisfy Zeng Shaoqing, Zeng Shaoqing can fire them directly.  This is what they don't want to see. Firstly, the stock market is now full of people, and it is not easy to find a job opportunity. Secondly, although Zeng Shaoqing did not give them any stock in the company, the salary he offered was extremely generous, which was comparable to other similar companies.  What the company cannot do.

    Of course, their basic salary is not high, but is directly linked to their performance.

    Zeng Shaoqing is quite clear about human nature. He knows that things that come too easily will not be appreciated by people and cannot be replaced by loyalty.

    Over the next day or so, the employees tried their best and finally quietly put all the funds that Zeng Shaoqing planned to invest in the Hong Kong stock market into the market.  Just when these operations were completed, Li Fook-siu, chairman of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, with the consent of the then Financial Secretary, announced that the Hong Kong stock market would be suspended for four days and would reopen on October 26.

    The employees of the company who learned the news were obviously a little panicked.

    Is this because the boss is magical?  Or is it because the boss is so powerful that he already knows some inside information?

    The Hong Kong stock market was suspended, but the actions of Zeng Investment Bank did not stop. They entered the Tokyo stock market with the remaining funds they could mobilize.

    By the time October ended and November entered, when Zeng¡¯s Investment Bank suspended operations, the Kumagai Group¡¯s assets had shrunk by nearly 40%. Although it did not go bankrupt, it was really severely damaged.

    Zeng Shaoqing did not expect that he would get a very unexpected result.

    In his plan, he did not want to make much money from this operation.  Although they are currently experiencing a stock market crash, the Kumagai group at this time still has very sufficient funds and is even more powerful, which is completely incomparable to his more than 100 million US dollars.  He was even prepared to suffer a small loss.

    However, he did not expect that during the stock market crash, people's emotions would be unstable and the hot money would be crazy.

    When they discovered that there were relatively strong funds attacking Kumagai-gumi stocks, the frightened investors who held Kumagai-gumi stocks sold their stocks one after another, and the hot money investors were like sharks smelling the smell of blood, going crazy.  The follow-up turned out to be a joint force with Zeng Shaoqing's funds, which severely knocked down the Kumagai Group's stocks.

    Although the Xionggu Group spent a lot of money to rescue the market, it had no effect.  By the time Zeng Shaoqing and others evacuated, the Xionggu Group's stock price plummeted by nearly 50%.

    As the main force in attacking the Kumagai group's funds, Zeng's Investment Bank made the largest pot of gold, with a net income of more than 50 million US dollars.  In other words, at this time, Zeng Shaoqing had US$200 million in funds.

    Zeng Shaoqing left 200 million U.S. dollars in the futures market, continued to dive, speculated on the Nikkei to make profits, and waited for the collapse of the Nikkei two years later, and cashed out the remaining fraction of about 5 million U.S. dollars and brought it back  I came to Beijing and prepared to invest in a car factory.

    When Zeng Shaoqing returned to Beijing, it was already November 3rd. By this time, the Thirteenth National Congress had ended.  Zeng Youwang has indeed entered the ranks of the Central Committee members, and his job transfer has also been confirmed. He will resign from his posts as member of the Organization Department of the Central Committee and director of the Second Bureau of Cadres, and go to Jinling City, the provincial capital of Jiangnan Province, to serve as a member of the Standing Committee of the Jiangnan Provincial Committee, and  The positions of Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Jinling Municipal Party Committee.

    In addition, Bai Ling¡¯s grandfather Bai Mingji also entered the Political Bureau of the Central Committee and was elected as an alternate member of the Political Bureau according to Zeng Shaoqing¡¯s memory.

    Because he listened to Zeng Shaoqing's advice, Bai Mingji made a significant contribution to the country's railway construction. His work will also be transferred to the position of deputy director of the State Planning Commission. His supervisory direction is the transportation sector, which can be regarded as his old profession, but  Expand the scope of management from just railways to the entire transportation field.

    However, the first thing Zeng Shaoqing did when he returned to Peking University was to apologize to Guo Ziyi.  Because he first asked for leave from Guo Ziyi, saying that he would only be away for about a week, but now it took him almost half a month to come back.  It took so much time, which was somewhat beyond Zeng Shaoqing's expectation.  But Guo Ziyi didn't care about this. At that time,Qing Qing called Guo Ziyi in Hong Kong and said that she wanted to extend her leave, but Guo Ziyi said harsh words.  Now that he is back, he must coax this beautiful teacher well, otherwise his life will be difficult.
