Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

On the afternoon of March 3rd.

Lin Baicheng took people to a teahouse and entered a private room.

"Mr. Lin!"

Qin Lan and Chen Zhixiong, the chief and deputy directors of the Secretariat, had already arrived first.

In addition to Qin Lan and Chen Zhixiong, there was a man about fifty years old in the private room. He was the person Lin Baicheng came here to see today.

The bodyguards had already checked, and there was no one else in the private room except for three people. However, Lin Baicheng still left two bodyguards, and naturally Qin Lan and Chen Zhixiong also stayed.

"Mr. Lin, this is Zhong Zhengwen Zhongsheng."

Qin Lan first introduced Lin Baicheng to the man in the private room, and then introduced Lin Baicheng to the other party.

"I was lucky enough to meet Lin Sheng several times, but unfortunately I didn't have enough luck. This time I had the opportunity to meet Lin Sheng."

Zhong Zhengwen was very polite. Lin Baicheng had attended many banquets and other activities, so Zhong Zhengwen had naturally seen him before. However, the two parties did not know each other before and had no business contacts, so this was the first official meeting between the two.

"Zhong Sheng, please sit down."

Lin Baicheng gestured and sat down himself.

Glancing at Qin Lan, Lin Baicheng said: "Zhong Sheng, I heard Director Qin say that you must see me?"

Seeing that they were about to talk about business, Zhong Zhengwen looked serious: "Lin Sheng, I have some evidence of illegal operations in Chen Songqing's early enterprises and Jianing Group. I can hand them all over to you, but I also have conditions."

"Zhong Sheng, please speak."

Since Lin Baicheng is here today, he must want to hear Zhong Zhengwen's conditions.

Zhong Zhengwen said: "I was encouraged by these illegal operations of Chen Songqing and Jianing Group, so that I later found out that I was also involved, so one of my conditions was that Lin Sheng, you would give me a hand. .With Lin Sheng’s energy, this is just a trivial matter for you.”

Lin Baicheng glanced at him and shook his head slightly: "Zhongsheng, let's open up the sky and speak frankly. Chen Songqing was first developed with your support. You were also a participant in his affairs, and if nothing else, 伱He is very involved, and as expected, he has been deeply bound. Therefore, I cannot agree to your condition, and I do not have the ability to help you."

Since he had to deal with Chen Songqing, Lin Baicheng's investigation of Chen Songqing was naturally very detailed.

As early as 1972, when Chen Songqing first came to Hong Kong, his first job was to work for Zhong Zhengwen. At that time, the Zhong family was a well-known real estate developer in Xiangjiang. Zhong Zhengwen was one of several real estate brothers, and Chen Songqing was hired by him as a project manager.

In 1975, Chen Songqing established his own real estate company with the support of Zhong Zhengwen. Zhong Zhengwen was the main investor. Since then, the two parties have formed a series of joint ventures.

Therefore, Zhong Zhengwen had some evidence of illegal operations by Chen Songqing and Jianing Group. Even if the evidence did not involve him, if Chen Songqing was arrested for this, Zhong Zhengwen would definitely be brought out.

"Lin Sheng is joking, you are the richest man in Hong Kong, and you have close relationships with many important officials in the Hong Kong government, including the Governor of Hong Kong. If you are willing, you can definitely help me." Zhong Zhengwen immediately complimented him respectfully.

"Let's not talk about whether I am willing or not. I really don't have the ability."

Lin Baicheng said very seriously: "Zhong Sheng, you also know that HSBC, Jardine and other British capitals are now shareholders of the Carining Group. This time I take action to squeeze out the Jiali Group, HSBC, Jardine and other British capitals will definitely They won't watch helplessly. If I help you, they will definitely stop you and even focus on you. So, if I really help you, I might even harm you."

Lin Baicheng and Zhong Zhengwen are not relatives. If HSBC and British capital really try to get Zhong Zhengwen, he will definitely not protect him to death. And Zhong Zhengwen himself will definitely not be able to withstand the attack of British capital, so if Lin Baicheng If you don't insist on protecting Zhong Zhengwen, if you just put in a little effort, it will be of no help.

Zhong Zhengwen listened and said: "Lin Sheng, after I take out the evidence, I will definitely bring myself out too. If you don't help me, I won't be able to hand over the evidence in my hand to you." .”

"Zhong Sheng, it seems you haven't seen the situation clearly yet."

Lin Baicheng narrowed his eyes slightly: "Although my people were accidentally discovered by you during the investigation of Jianing Group this time, I have gained something. It would be best if I could get some evidence from you. If not, I There are ways to deal with Chen Songqing and Jianing Group, and it doesn’t necessarily require the evidence in your hand, Zhongsheng. It’s just that, after I officially take action, the evidence in your hand, Zhongsheng, will be useless.”

Yes, Lin Baicheng came to meet with Zhong Zhengwen today because of Zhong Zhengwen's request, but the root cause was the secretariat's poor performance, which Zhong Zhengwen discovered.

In fact, Zhong Zhengwen is not stupid. When he cooperated with Chen Songqing, he discovered that although his business expanded rapidly, he was burdened with huge loans and debts. In order to prevent Chen Songqing from messing with him, he had arranged for people to keep an eye on Chen Songqing and Jia Ning. Group, and then discovered that Lin Baicheng's people were secretly investigating the Jianing Group.

In order to avoid alerting Jianing Group and British capital, Lin Baicheng had no choice but to agree to meet Zhong Zhengwen and hear what he wanted.

Now the conditions proposed by Zhong Zhengwen exceeded Lin Baicheng's bottom line, so he refused without thinking.

"What evidence did Lin Sheng find?"

Zhong Zhengwen asked tentatively. It was precisely because of such worries that he made a meeting with Lin Baicheng, hoping to leave Chen Songqing's broken ship as soon as possible.

Lin Baicheng smiled and did not answer, but said: "Zhong Sheng, you can either change the conditions, or think about it carefully."

Seeing this, Zhong Zhengwen knew that nothing would come out of the test, so he stopped testing and said: "Lin Sheng, since you feel that you can't help me, then I will change the conditions."

"Please say."

Lin Baicheng signaled.

Zhong Zhengwen said: "My company's business is in some difficulties now. I want to get a loan from Lin Sheng's Galaxy Bank, and I hope Lin Sheng can agree."

"How much is the loan?"

Lin Baicheng did not ask Zhong Zhengwen what difficulties he encountered in his business.

Zhong Zhengwen said with expectation: "One billion Hong Kong dollars!"

"A billion?!"

Lin Baicheng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and Qin Lan and Chen Zhixiong, who had been silent, even exclaimed.

Qin Lan couldn't help but said: "Zhong Sheng, you want a loan of one billion Hong Kong dollars, which is too much."

Chen Zhixiong also said: "Zhong Sheng, even a lion can't speak like you. You have no sincerity at all."

Zhong Zhengwen explained: "Lin Sheng, I am not asking you for a billion Hong Kong dollars, but a loan. The interest on the loan can be calculated according to normal interest. A loan of one billion Hong Kong dollars, for your net worth of tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars, It’s not an unbearable amount.”

"I can afford one billion Hong Kong dollars."

Lin Baicheng nodded slightly and said in the midst of Zhong Zhengwen's joy: "But I want to know, Zhongsheng, does your one billion Hong Kong dollar loan have any collateral?"

Zhong Zhengwen said with a heartbroken look: "I can use the shares of the company under my name as collateral."

"Zhong Sheng was joking."

Lin Baicheng ignored Zhong Zhengwen's performance and shook his head: "The company under your name is deeply involved with Chen Songqing or Jianing Group. Only you know how many problems there are. Once something happens to Chen Songqing and Jianing Group, your Something will definitely happen to those companies. So, if you want to use the company's shares as collateral for the loan, it will never work here."

Zhong Zhengwen immediately said: "Lin Sheng, some of the companies under my name have problems, but some companies have absolutely no problems. I can use the shares of those companies as collateral."

"Is that so?"

Looking at Zhong Zhengwen, Lin Baicheng suddenly hesitated.

Seeing that there was something going on, Zhong Zhengwen hurriedly said: "Lin Sheng, please believe me. There is absolutely no problem with the shares I took out for the loan. I guarantee it in the name of the Zhong family."

"What do you think?"

Lin Baicheng did not answer, but looked at Qin Lan and Chen Zhixiong.

Zhong Zhengwen looked at Qin Lan and Chen Zhixiong nervously, for fear of hearing rejection from their mouths.

Qin Lan looked at Zhong Zhengwen and said, "Mr. Lin, as long as Zhong Sheng agrees to let our secretariat bring people to the company he took out as a mortgage and let us investigate, as long as we are sure that Zhong Sheng's company has no problems, then the loan can still be done considerate."

Chen Zhixiong said: "In addition to the collateral, there must be corresponding guarantors, so that it is safe."

Lin Baicheng nodded after hearing this, looked at Zhong Zhengwen and said, "Zhong Sheng, what do you think?"

"no problem!"

Zhong Zhengwen agreed without thinking: "There is nothing wrong with the shares I pledged. I am not afraid of investigation. I will also find a suitable guarantor. Don't worry, Lin Sheng."

"Well, as long as the investigation confirms that there are no problems, I can give Zhong Sheng a loan of one billion Hong Kong dollars to your company."

Lin Baicheng agreed, and then said: "Zhong Sheng, I think you have no other conditions?"

"No, of course not."

Zhong Zhengwen knows that enough is enough. He can already laugh about getting a loan of one billion Hong Kong dollars, so how can he dare to make extraneous matters.

Lin Baicheng: "Okay, Zhong Sheng, please hand over the evidence."

"Lin Sheng, it's not that I don't trust you."

Hearing this, Zhong Zhengwen said: "The main reason is that my evidence was placed in a place in the countryside. It would take a few days for me to send someone over to pick up the code. It just so happened that we took advantage of these few days to process the loan and wait until the loan is ready." Come down, and I’ll definitely be able to get my evidence back.”

"Then as you said, Zhongsheng, I will immediately send people to your company to investigate, and you will have people go get the evidence back, and we will complete the transaction as soon as possible."

Lin Baicheng took a deep look at Zhong Zhengwen. He didn't believe Zhong Zhengwen's words. It was just that Zhong Zhengwen didn't believe him and wouldn't give him the evidence before the loan money was transferred.

"Just do as you say, Lin Sheng."

Zhong Zhengwen immediately agreed upon hearing this.

Lin Baicheng said to Qin Lan and Chen Zhixiong: "I'll leave this matter to you to follow up."

"Yes, Mr. Lin."

Qin Lan and Chen Zhixiong both responded.

After negotiating the deal, Lin Baicheng didn't stay much and left. Qin Lan and Chen Zhixiong also left with him. They made an appointment with Zhong Zhengwen to send someone to his company tomorrow morning.

In a stretched Lincoln on the road.

Lin Baicheng looked at Qin Lan and Chen Zhixiong opposite and said: "You didn't handle things beautifully this time, and Zhong Zhengwen discovered it. If you hadn't temporarily stabilized Zhong Zhengwen and allowed him to ruin my good deeds, you would have Totally messed it up."

Qin Lan lowered her head and said, "Mr. Lin, it was indeed our mistake this time. We will definitely review it."

"Put aside the review in advance. The key now is to do the things I asked you to do well."

Lin Baicheng said solemnly: "Although we have stabilized Zhong Zhengwen now, does Zhong Zhengwen really believe us? Does he have any back-up plan? Or will he tell Chen Songqing about our investigation of Jianing Group?" , these are all unknown. Therefore, the key for you now is to get the evidence of Jianning Group’s financial fraud from the accountant as soon as possible, so that there will be no more accidents this time.”

Yes, even though Lin Baicheng and Zhong Zhengwen had a good discussion before, he was just deceiving Zhong Zhengwen. He was stupid and only gave Zhong Zhengwen a loan of one billion Hong Kong dollars.

Lin Baicheng wanted to get evidence from Zhong Zhengwen, and even asked Zhong Zhengwen to testify against Chen Songqing. However, Zhong Zhengwen's conditions were too outrageous. Whether it was a favor or a billion Hong Kong dollar loan, Lin Baicheng would not agree.

Therefore, in order to prevent Zhong Zhengwen from informing Chen Songqing, or to escape from Xiangjiang, Lin Baicheng pretended to agree to Zhong Zhengwen's loan conditions, temporarily stabilized Zhong Zhengwen, and delayed time for Qin Lan and others to obtain evidence.

"Mr. Lin, there will definitely be no accidents this time."

Qin Lan immediately promised: "Our people have already negotiated terms with the accountant. As long as we give him one million Hong Kong dollars and send him to leave Hong Kong, he will immediately hand over the evidence to us."

"It won't happen that the other party doesn't give evidence after taking the money, right?"

Lin Baicheng's slightly suspicious words expressed his distrust of the Secretariat.

"No, Mr. Lin, our people will follow him out of Xiangjiang. After the other party gets off the plane, they will tell us where to put the evidence. Only after we confirm that there is no problem with the evidence, will the people following the accountant leave."

Qin Lan's heart sank, knowing that if something went wrong again this time, everyone in the Secretariat would be in trouble. If they can get the evidence and bring down the Jianing Group, there will still be some room for maneuver, and they may not be punished too severely.

"How long will it take to get the evidence?"

Lin Baicheng asked directly.

Qin Lan calculated in his mind and said: "If nothing happens, we will be able to get the evidence tomorrow night."

"Tomorrow night? It better be, don't let me down again!"

Lin Baicheng looked deeply at the two of them, then closed his eyes to rest and said no more.

Lin Baicheng has already thought about it. If he can get decisive evidence, he will treat the Secretariat leniently and give him a small penalty as a warning; but if he can't get the evidence and another accident occurs, not only Qin Lan will be transferred from the Secretariat , the positions of other people in the Secretariat must also be changed.

Anyway, if Lin Baicheng is dissatisfied with the Secretariat's poor performance, then Lin Baicheng will have to replace him.
