Chapter 166： negotiation one

It has been a week since Bao Zixuan was injured, and these days are spent in the company. All media interviews were refused; at the same time, HSBC also greeted the Hong Kong media and asked them to report the truth. Otherwise, everyone's face will be bad. There were still some newspapers that didn't take it to heart at first, but you don't have any financial needs at HSBC. Then the companies that advertise in your newspaper office have no connection with HSBC; it is almost unrealistic in the land of Hong Kong.

The Oriental Daily report is now much more objective, and the joint voice of HSBC and Heiyun is a terrifying existence for the poor Ma family. However, Hu Xian, the head of Sing Tao Daily, is planning to make this matter into a series. The script has already been written, so how can he give up easily.

Still continuing to report on Bao Zixuan and the actress, TVB is also actively cooperating in order to increase Chen Yulian's popularity. As a result, Bao Zixuan can't say anything right now, so he still chooses to deal with it as coldly as before. After all, the media is like this, the more you speak up, the happier they are, so that they can fight you in the newspapers.

However, with wireless cooperation and the lack of entertainment in this era, the citizens of Hong Kong like to watch the lace news of these giants. Bao Zixuan himself is not from a wealthy family, but no one is denying that he is now a wealthy family.

Sing Tao Daily has distribution capabilities in RB and Europe and the United States. Bao Zixuan's attempt to save an actress from injury is a topical news, and there is room for infinite associations. In addition to the public who do not know the truth, almost all of them are brought into their rhythm and mode by Sing Tao Daily.

After the Hong Kong media stopped, many foreign media reprinted the content of Sing Tao Daily. Sing Tao Daily, which had tasted the sweetness, even made a big report, causing many people who cared about Bao Zixuan to call him to inquire about the situation.

Bao Zixuan knew that if he continued like this, who else would take him seriously. If we don't do it a bit more ruthless this time, then there will be more and more media outlets like Sing Tao Daily after we let the situation develop.

Picked up the phone and called HSBC. He offered to meet with Shen Bi. When it came time to resolve the matter. Shen Bi quickly agreed to the meeting request after receiving the call from Bao Zixuan, and the two sides agreed to meet at the restaurant of the Peninsula Hotel.

In fact, HSBC was in more trouble in this report, especially after the news came back to the UK headquarters. How can someone enter the HSBC headquarters with a knife? What level of security is this? You run a bank, so this is too much of a joke!

The board of directors of the headquarters even asked Shen Bi to explain the situation, and was already dissatisfied with his work. It's no wonder the board of directors. After the news spread to Europe and the United States, it brought an unprecedented crisis of confidence to HSBC. The expansion in Europe and the United States has been forced to stop, and people can't imagine how safe a bank that can let gangsters enter at will.

If ordinary people are injured, the problem is not too big, mainly because Bao Zixuan's influence is too great. It's just that he doesn't feel it now, otherwise he would have done crisis public relations in advance and couldn't wait for now. It makes everyone passive, and at the same time makes those who care about it worry.

After hearing reports from the US, Europe, and RB divisions, Bao Zixuan had a new idea. I can get some benefits from this injury, and see if I can buy some shares in other companies in Hong Kong from HSBC. Li Chaoren has not yet purchased the shares of Hutchison Whampoa, so he asked whether Shen Bi would refuse. But try it anyway, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The Peninsula Hotel opened in 1928 and was known as the "Dame of the Far East". It was one of the most advanced and luxurious hotels in Asia at that time. The building at that time had only seven floors and was H-shaped.

From the construction of the hotel in 1922 to its completion in 1926, it was once stationed by the British army as a temporary barracks.

When Hong Kong fell in World War II, on the evening of December 25, 1941, Hong Kong Governor Yang Muqi took the star ferry to the Peninsula Hotel to sign the surrender letter. During the Japanese occupation, the Peninsula Hotel was requisitioned by the Japanese army as a command center.

Since the 1950s, the Peninsula Hotel has been known as the "Shadow Cafe" because many movie stars love to have afternoon tea in the Peninsula. In the 1980s, artists such as Leslie Cheung, Zhong Chuhong and Maggie Cheung were regular guests of the hotel. Hollywood star Tom Cruise also stayed.

In 1994, the hotel underwent an expansion project, and a new 30-storey wing was built in the north. There is a heliport on the top floor, which is convenient for important VIPs to use helicopters to travel to and from Hong Kong International Airport, or to enjoy the sky over Hong Kong.

To be honest, Bao Zixuan is the first time to come to this historic hotel in both past and present life, but as an Englishman and HSBC Taipan, Shen Bidao is a frequent visitor here.

After Shen Bi arranged for the secretary to call and reserve a seat, he left the office first and drove towards the Peninsula Hotel. On the way, he was full of emotion, when he had to wait for someone in advance, I am afraid that even the governor may not have such treatment. Times are really changing now, do I get old, or HSBC has changed and declined.

As the general manager of the Peninsula Hotel, Michael Kadoorie learned that Shen Bi was going to discuss things at his hotel. I attach great importance to personally arranging the staff to arrange everything in advance. After all, the things Shen Bi and Bao Zixuan talked about are definitely of historical significance, which is of great benefit to the promotion of the hotel's popularity.

After Shen Bi arrived, he saw Michael Kadoorie in the hotel lobby to greet him in person, and the depression in his heart suddenly improved a lot. He was also the HSBC Taipan, an English gentleman with a detached status in Hong Kong.

Michael Kadoorie said to Shen Bi: "Welcome to the Peninsula Hotel, everything has been arranged. Do you need to go up now!"

Shen Bi: "No hurry, I'll wait here for a while, Bao Zixuan will be there soon."

Hearing this, Michael Kadoorie was very shocked. He knew too well what kind of character Shen Bi was. Michael Kadoorie, the grandfather who did business in Xiangjiang, understood the terrifying power of HSBC in Xiangjiang I didn't expect Shen Bi to be so low today. It seems that HSBC is really in trouble this time.

Actually, Shen Bi didn't want to do this either, but when it was time to let go of his body, he also knew how to give. Otherwise, it would be even more troublesome. Bao Yugang told him that Bao Zixuan had no requirements, but he was afraid that there would be no requirements, and the benefits would be more.

Bao Zixuan's car arrived in less than ten minutes, and when he entered the hotel lobby, he saw Shen Bi was actually waiting for him in the hotel lobby. It seemed that this old boy was really in a hurry, otherwise, with this arrogant and arrogant character of Shen Bi, he would not have let go of his body like this.

Originally, I had no confidence in the acquisition of Hutchison Whampoa, but now I see Shen Bi like this. Then I have more confidence in getting this company. If I let Li Chaoren get this, I'm really sorry for the knife on the arm.

In his previous life, Li Chaoren only announced the acquisition of 90 million shares of Hutchison Whampoa in HSBC at the end of September, and now he has at most talked to Shen Bi through Bao Yugang, so it seems that he has a great chance.

When Shen Bi saw Bao Zixuan coming, he went up to him and said, "Brother Bao, how are you these days! Are you feeling better?"

Bao Zixuan: "Thank you for your concern, senior, but the skin injury is no longer a serious problem. Besides, I am young and strong, and I will be fine. It makes senior worried."

Shen Bi: "This is also our HSBC's work mistake. Let's not stand in front of other people's doors. Let's go first!"

At this time, Michael Kadoorie was always with Shen Bi and Bao Zixuan, since these two put the negotiating position in the Peninsula Hotel. Then he has to serve customers well, if the hurting incident at the HSBC banquet occurs in the Peninsula Hotel. The Peninsula Hotel is definitely much worse than HSBC, even the Kadoorie family can't afford such consequences.
