    Gu Liwei is a very good administrative secretary and fully prepares the materials required for each meeting. Shen Chong also tries his best to be concise and comprehensive to improve the efficiency of the meeting. However, there are too many things that need to be arranged. After three meetings, the clock has already  Went to 12 noon.  As soon as Qiu Liben and others left, Qiu Siyu came over. She knocked on the door of the conference room and reminded: "Mr. Shen, you have lunch with Mr. Shen Bi at 12:30." "I understand." Shen  Chong stood up, quickly put on his suit jacket, and said: "Xiao Yu, go find a nice box and put the hollow gold watch I brought back from Beijing during the Spring Festival, and I will give it to Shen Bi as a gift.  " "Okay. " There is nothing new about the place where Shen Bi entertains guests. It is still the golf club in Deep Water Bay. It was jointly recommended by him and Li Ka-shing that the fledgling Shen Chong could become a member of this club. He chose this place to eat.  I would like to remind Shen Chong that his prosperity in the first place was all due to the support of HSBC.  "Alan." "Long time no see." As soon as they met, the two shook hands very warmly, as if they were old friends with no grudges. After the greetings, Shen Bi pointed to a handsome middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes next to him.  The young man introduced: "Alan, this is the chairman of Jianing Group, Chen Songqing, a Hong Kong business wizard who is as famous as you." Shen Chong's heart skipped a beat, but on the surface he remained calm, taking the initiative to shake hands with Chen Songqing and shouting  Said: "Mr. Chen, I have admired my name for a long time, I have admired my name for a long time, you snatched the food from the tiger's mouth and purchased the Golden Gate Building from the Land Group, setting a precedent for purchasing an entire commercial building in Hong Kong. It was a stroke of genius. It not only expanded the assets of Jia Ning, but also started the business.  "I admire Jianing's reputation, his skillful techniques, and his extraordinary courage." "Compared with Mr. Shen's arrogance in spending millions of dollars in the United States, my little trouble is nothing." "Three people.  After sitting down and ordering food, Shen Chong took out the box containing the gold watch, pushed it to Shen Bi, and said: "Nh1 I know you like watches, so I give this to you. I bought it specially when I went to Beijing last time. It is a traditional Chinese  Although it is not as precise and accurate as a Swiss watch, it is very unique. "It is well known in Hong Kong that Shen Bi loves watches. It is said that he has collected hundreds of famous watches, worth tens of millions. He opened the box and admired it.  After meeting, he reluctantly closed the lid and said, "It's very beautiful. I like it. Thank you." After giving the gift, the atmosphere became more harmonious. Chen Songqing was also a personable and eloquent person, but the three of them each had their own agenda.  , chatting about boring social topics, looking friendly and happy on the surface.  After the food was served, Shen Bi picked up the glass of red wine and said to Shen Chong: "Come, let us use this glass of red wine to pay tribute to the most profitable genius in human history." "Mr. Shen, I have seen it.  Soon, you will become the world's richest man. Come on, I respect you. " "Nh1, what you said is too exaggerated, Mr. Chen, you are trying to flatter me." Shen Chong smiled and touched the two of them.  He took a sip of wine, put down the glass, and asked unintentionally: "Mr. Chen, you purchased the Golden Gate Tower for UR billion Hong Kong dollars. Do you plan to hold it for a long time and mainly collect rent, or do you plan to resell it in layers and make a profit?"  "Quick money?" "Why, Mr. Shen is interested in buying a new office building?" Chen Songqing avoided answering and said with a smile: "Is the oriental charm building known as the best office environment in Asia no longer enough?  " "I'm just curious, just asking." Shen Chong laughed and said, "The real estate market in Hong Kong is very prosperous now. As one of the landmarks of Hong Kong, I think there is room for further appreciation. "  ,I am also very curious.  "Chen Songqing cut the steak and asked: "Everyone says that Mr. Shen is the reincarnation of the God of Wealth and has an extremely accurate vision. I have read many reports about you, making toys, movies, high-tech, stocks, and futures, but  It seems that I have never been in the real estate business. I originally thought that Mr. Shen was not optimistic about the real estate market in Hong Kong, but after listening to what I just said, it was not the case. So Mr. Shen, why don't you do real estate?  Hong Kong has less land and more people, and everyone knows that real estate is highly profitable.  " "It's simple, because 1997 is coming soon.  "What Shen Chong wanted was spaghetti. He picked at the noodles with his fork and said slowly: "Before the 1997 problem is solved, Hong Kong's real estate market is a mirage. There are great risks. People will not pay for a property with only 17 years of property rights.  The house pays for it.  " As soon as these words came out, the two people's expressions tightened. Shen Bi's eyes narrowed and he immediately asked: "Alan, did you get new inside information from Beijing?  "    "No.  Shen Chong denied it, spread his hands and said, "I just came back from the United States last night. As you know, overseas calls are not available in the mainland."  " Chen Songqing breathed a sigh of relief, while Shen Bi stared at him and said, "Alan, you have to know that before the invention of the telephone, humans had already learned how to communicate over long distances. You ordered three Boeing 74s for the mainland in the United States.  He told me that it was done without any contact with high-level officials in the Mainland.  ¡± ¡°I have only had contact with oneThere are some civil aviation officials, but they are very disciplined and rarely talk to outsiders about things other than business.  Shen Chong said without revealing a word: "I really don't know how the mainland dealt with the 1997 issue. If I knew, I wouldn't be sitting here drinking and chatting with you. I would either rush to buy real estate or  I will not come back if I stay in the United States. As you know, I am very popular in the United States and they are looking forward to my naturalization.  "After Shen Bi heard this, his expression relaxed. He smiled and complained in a neither serious nor serious tone: "Alan, there is a proverb in China, it is better to be cooked than to be cooked, and HSBC is yours.  Old friend, you are investing heavily in the United States this time, but you don't choose us to operate it. It hurts your feelings too much. You know, we have just acquired New York Ocean Millennium Bank, and we urgently need business to expand our influence in the United States. Ocean Millennium Bank  It is the largest bank in New York State, and HSBC provides technical support, so it can help you complete your investment.  "Nh1 I have no choice but to deal with this matter." Shen Chong put down his fork and said half-truthfully: "Now that Japanese products are so popular in the United States, local manufacturers have gone bankrupt on a large scale and the unemployment rate is high. People don't like me for making a lot of money like this."  The overseas businessmen were very resistant. When I was in Seattle, someone told me that some members of Congress were pushing for a proposal to impose heavy taxes on overseas investors and restrict investment areas. In order to avoid such a bad thing from happening, I had to publish it in the newspaper.  I publicly stated that, except for private consumption, public welfare, and charitable expenditures, all money earned in the United States will be consumed in the United States to contribute to stimulating the recovery of the U.S. economy. In order to prove that I am true to my word, I have to  Leave the investment to Goldman Sachs. You know, Goldman Sachs is very influential in the Federal Reserve and the National Economic Council and can help lobby Congress. " "Americans have become more and more conservative and have lost the confidence they had as a world hegemon in the 1950s.  " Shen Bi shook his head and said with empathy: "Alan, I understand your situation. When HSBC acquired Ocean Millennium Bank, we also encountered great resistance and were repeatedly made things difficult by the New York State Banking Regulatory Authority. Since 1977,  It has taken 3 years since the signing of the contract to acquire 4 shares, and the full acquisition is still far away." After sighing, he asked, "But Allen, what about your affairs in Asia?" "As you just said.  As the saying goes, it is better to be experienced than to be experienced. My business in Asia will definitely be handled by HSBC." Shen Chong picked up the wine glass and greeted him with a smile. After drinking the red wine, he said: "Nh1 HSBC is interested in aircraft leasing.  Are you interested in the business? I plan to mortgage or resell the three Boeing 747 aircraft contracts." "Alan," Shen Bi said loudly with a look of surprise on his face: "If you transfer this contract to HSBC,  You will be HSBC¡¯s forever friend.¡± Hong Kong people call the chairman of the board of directors of a foreign bank ¡°Tai Pan.¡± Shen Bi is one of the most outstanding executives in the history of HSBC, known as the ¡°King of Tai Pan.¡± After he took over HSBC in 1977, he worked hard to  Against public opinion, he alienated British-owned groups such as Jardine Matheson and Wheelock, and vigorously supported Chinese capital. Li Ka-shing acquired Hutchison Whampoa, and Bao Yugang swallowed up Wharf. He was the driving force behind the scenes, and his hard work was not in vain.  Remember that after Whampoa and Wharf changed hands, they developed rapidly and brought huge financial resources to HSBC.  On the one hand, he supported Chinese capital, and on the other hand, he spent US$3.1 billion to invest in Ocean Mile Bank and set foot in the U.S. financial market.  Banking groups laid the foundation.  This person has a very strategic vision, and he immediately saw the value of the aircraft leasing contract in Shen Chong's hand. Financial leasing is a type of financial service, and aircraft leasing is a high-end service. He has access to high-level officials in the mainland, so it is not three aircraft.  , that is a key to enter the mainland financial market.  So he couldn't help but be excited "Nh" Shen Chong glanced at Chen Songqing, who was listening intently, and said: "There is good food and wine here, blue sky and sunshine. Talking about business is too boring. Why don't we talk about it another time?" "No problem,  No problem, Allen, you can call me at any time." Shen Bi became sincerely enthusiastic and said, "I know CaIu bought a house in Baijia Road, you must live with her, it is very close to my home.  How about you come to my house to talk? I have a lot of fine Scotch whiskey in my collection. "Okay, no problem. I'll call you before I go."  " "OK, that's settled.  " At this time, Chen Songqing smiled and interjected and asked: "Who is CaIu?  Mr. Shen¡¯s confidante?  Everyone spoke in English. Chen Songqing used "close female friend" to refer to "confidante", which was obviously a joke. However, Shen Bi didn't know. He said: "Oh, no, it's not a friend, that's Ellen."  "My lover." Chen Songqing's eyes flashed, and she said: "I didn't expect that Mr. Shen, in addition to the Golden Horse Queen, also has a beautiful woman in his arms. It's really enviable."  Shen Chong smiled and said: "Actually, it's nothing. Many people know that I have two girlfriends." &nbsp"Oh?" Chen Songqing looked surprised and said: "Nowadays, the media is very developed and pervasive. Mr. Shen is in the limelight and attracts much attention. I have never seen any scandal reports in newspapers. It is really unbelievable. " "Every day in the world  There are many major events happening, and it would be a waste of social resources for newspapers to report on personal matters.  Shen Chong wiped the corner of his mouth gently and said: "I have said hello to the major media in Hong Kong, and they also gave me face, so they didn't report it.  "
