    If you can't cooperate, then don't cooperate. It was originally a good deal, but it ended up like this. Li Mingbao didn't know what to say.  He originally thought that no one would refuse a partnership that would benefit both parties.  But he did not expect that such a simple thing would not work at all when it came to Li Zhaoji. He was too greedy, so greedy that Li Mingbao would rather deal with the British Hong Kong government than these Hong Kong businessmen.  Fortunately, Li Mingbao is in a very special industry, and now he has more control.  Otherwise, Uncle Six's thoughts may not be any better than Li Zhaoji's.  Since he could not cooperate with these local Hong Kong businessmen, Li Mingbao naturally wanted to contact people from the British Hong Kong government.  But contacting them is actually quite troublesome.  Because fundamentally speaking, Li Mingbao is not very familiar with these British guys.  Even if we had to deal with each other before, it was arranged by old men like Uncle Liu.  But now it is not easy for him to find such a channel, and he cannot directly approach the Hong Kong Governor for this matter. He does not have such a big reputation in Hong Kong.  Instead of looking for the Governor, you have to look for the people from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority. But to be honest, Li Mingbao doesn¡¯t know anyone in the Hong Kong Monetary Authority. At least he has met the Hong Kong Governor once or twice. The people from the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, let alone  Speaking of people, Li Mingbao didn't even know which way the door opened.  So it is basically impossible to go directly to the door.  Fortunately, Li Mingbao had left a hand tail. If it hadn't been for this hand tail, Li Mingbao might have had to rely on Li Zhaoji to get to the dark side. The number of people who would suffer a loss would definitely not be a small number.  So after he separated from Li Zhaoji, Li Mingbao asked his secretary Miezi to contact a deputy manager at Standard Chartered Bank, the same guy who had previously negotiated with Li Mingbao about leaving US dollars in Hong Kong.  After receiving the call from Li Mingbao, Teresi immediately became excited.  To be honest, when Li Mingbao transferred the US dollars, Teres was as depressed as a dead mother.  After all, this money will leave sooner or later, but it will leave at this time. If the person who wants the money is not exaggerated, even their Standard Chartered Bank can't handle it. So, can Li Mingbao's money be transferred at this time?  Leaving is a big problem.  None of the banks, especially the old banks, are kind. It was normal for those foreign banks that opened in China at that time, but they just swallowed more and swallowed less. Even Yuan Datou's money they  Daosheng Bank swallowed all the depositors' money, let alone others. It left the Republic of China an empty shell, and the money has not been returned until now. Such a thing can be said to be  They abound.  It's just that some banks are a little more shameless, so they still have those signs, while some banks are completely shameless and swallow up all their signs. Anyway, for them, they can continue to open with a new sign, as long as the people are there.  .  In modern society, the status of banks is slightly better, but it is still not a good thing.  They didn't dare to swallow Li Mingbao's money directly, but if they misappropriated it temporarily or delayed it for two months, there would be absolutely no risk.  Fortunately, the people Li Mingbao hired last time were not ordinary people. John and Murdoch, even if Standard Chartered Bank didn't want this face, it couldn't afford the price.  In the end, the losses will be even greater, so they can happily let Li Mingbao transfer the money away.  I originally thought that there was no hope for this money. If the British Hong Kong government wanted to stabilize the exchange rate, it would have to rely on other methods. However, I didn't expect that Li Mingbao called him at this time and said that maybe there was a sum of money that he wanted to release.  It's in Standard Chartered Bank.  Although Li Mingbao did not specify what the money was on the phone, Teres could see some hope, so he immediately agreed to Li Mingbao's request and invited Li Mingbao to go to the Hong Kong headquarters of Standard Chartered Bank for discussions.  Terris was happy, and Li Mingbao was also relieved.  After all, he really doesn¡¯t know whether the British Hong Kong government has really prepared the money at this time. If the British Hong Kong government has prepared the money, then even if he saves money in Standard Chartered Bank now, he will not get much benefit.  If there is still a certain gap, then there will be more room for negotiation on Li Mingbao's side.  Fortunately, Terris did not refuse, but enthusiastically invited Li Mingbao to go to their Standard Chartered Bank. In this way, Li Mingbao also had an excuse.  The next day, Li Mingbao took his secretary Miezi and drove to the headquarters of Standard Chartered Bank.  Standard Chartered Bank's foundation in Hong Kong is actually deeper than those of Hong Kong companies.  It can basically be regarded as the purse strings of the British Hong Kong government. In many cases, the role played by Standard Chartered Bank in the hands of the British Hong Kong government is equivalent to that of the central bank. Its banknote issuance, lending, and infrastructure finance are basically owned by Standard Chartered Bank.  Business, relying on their status as a British local bank, in Hong Kong, their words are even more effective than the British Hong Kong government.  Of course, after the Sino-British negotiations, Standard Chartered Bank's life was not so easy, because at that time, Bank of China?The actions here are becoming more and more exaggerated, forming a situation of two strong powers competing for hegemony. Of course, even if Bank of China is here, it is not the opponent of Standard Chartered Bank in the early stage. Even after Hong Kong's return, the strength of Standard Chartered Bank cannot be underestimated.  , but generally speaking, the life of Standard Chartered Bank at that time was much more difficult than that of the days when it was doing independent business.  But no matter how sad it is, others are also working in banks. Although there is a risk of bankruptcy in this industry, the probability of bank bankruptcy is actually smaller than that of any other industry. Especially for large banks, it is difficult for large banks to have the risk of bankruptcy. Even those  Small banks, if not for the mergers and acquisitions of their peers, would have had an easier time than the average industry.  When Li Mingbao arrived at Standard Chartered Bank, he saw Teres waiting in front of the door of Standard Chartered Bank. For a person like him, being able to wait in front of the bank in person meant a lot, so seeing  After Teresi, Li Mingbao got out of the car, smiled, walked up quickly, and gave Teresi, who was nearly fifty years old, a warm hug.  "Dear Terese, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing recently? I just came back from the United States not long ago. I don't know much about the recent things in Hong Kong. I guess your Standard Chartered Bank must be quite busy recently.  "My old friend, Li, my life has been quite difficult recently, especially when you took out the money from Standard Chartered Bank, I felt as if I was marrying my daughter.  . You know, your money has been with us at Standard Chartered Bank for a long time, and it has played a positive role in my work, but you quietly put this money away without saying a word.  Withdrawing the money is an unscrupulous loss for us at Standard Chartered Bank. How do you think I can feel better under such circumstances?" Teres pretended to look sad at Li Mingbao.  Speaking of.  Hearing Tris's words, Li Mingbao responded with a smile: "If you had married your daughter to me, then I wouldn't have done this. Before that, I would definitely say hello to you.  I have been fascinated by Emma for a long time. " "It's a pity that you were only seventeen when Mary got married. At that time, you were not of legal age for marriage. Even if I wanted to marry my daughter to you, you would not marry her.  Can't get married." Terese didn't have much objection to Li Mingbao making fun of his daughter. Anyway, Li Mingbao drooled over his daughter not once or twice.  "Okay, let's not discuss this issue. Let's go to your office first. Of course, if there is a chance, can I invite your daughter to a romantic candlelight party?" Li Mingbao said to Standard Chartered Bank as he walked inside.  Tris said.  "If her husband doesn't mind, and my daughter is willing to meet you, a stranger, of course there is no problem, but I think such a thing is unlikely to happen. After all, they are very loving, and her husband,  He is not a simple person, so you'd better be prepared to be hit." Tris also said disrespectfully.  Teres¡¯ words are definitely not lies. After all, he is the vice president of Standard Chartered Bank and a shareholder of Standard Chartered Bank.  Everyone knows what Standard Chartered Bank represents, and it is also expected that his daughter can marry anyone. Whether in the West or the East, they actually pay attention to a well-matched person. Maybe such rules in the East are not well formulated.  No matter how strict it is, even in ancient times, there were cases of poor men marrying Bai Fumei. Of course, the number was somewhat small.  But in the West, being well-matched is definitely a very critical issue. In ancient times, it was even more exaggerated. If you were from the royal family, you had to be from the royal family to marry.  In order to maintain their bloodline, they even marry by blood. There are quite a few marriages between brothers and sisters.  During the First World War, it was actually equivalent to the uncle beating the nephew, the cousin beating the cousin, the cousin beating the cousin, anyway, it was a mess.  Even if it is a small country, it is still controlled by the royal family.  Of course, in modern times, the West has become a little better, and royal families and nobles are also intermarrying, but it is still a taboo topic for ordinary people to marry high-ranking families.  Teres also has the status of a baron in the UK.  The daughter of a baron, coupled with Tris's own power, was definitely not a simple person and family to marry into.  Li Mingbao followed Teres into the elevator, then went upstairs, and finally arrived at Teres' office.  As a long-established aristocrat, the decoration in Tris's office is definitely worthy of his title of nobility. The antiques placed in the office alone are quite expensive, especially the cultural relics of Tris in Hong Kong and China.  , and the collection is quite large. At least when Li Mingbao came here for the first time, he saw several exhibits that could be collected by provincial museums.  Even though Chinese cultural relics have not yet reached their highest selling prices, cultural relics like Tris can still be fetched for a lot of money now.  And the things that Tris can put in his office are 100% notWhat a fake, he can't afford to disgrace this person.  At a glance, Li Mingbao knew how much power a long-established bank like Standard Chartered had. Many of the things that leaked out of the Qing Palace back then were definitely obtained by these old guys, and the things they put on display were definitely not counted.  What is the best stuff.
