Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon - Vol 3 Chapter 1453
The joke is a joke.
Su Xingjian’s position is still very necessary for Xia Yu.
In the past few years, Xiangjiang has been able to develop according to his intentions, and it is indispensable for the full cooperation of Su Xingjian, the Hong Kong Governor.
Since Su Xingjian came to show his loyalty again, Xia Yu would not remain indifferent.
It just so happened that he was also going to contact Margaret today to clarify his attitude.
Calculating the jet lag, it is now half past the morning in London, England.
Just fight directly in front of Su Xingjian now.
Do it when you think of it.
Xia Yu took the phone on the desktop and directly dialed the private number in Margaret’s office.
Xia Yu has been to Margaret’s office. She has several telephones. Although they are all encrypted, one of them is private.
“Beep…beep…”
After ringing for a while, the call was connected suddenly.
“Hi, hello, who is it?”
There were some familiar female voices on the phone, Xia Yu immediately recognized it, and it happened to be Marguerite.
He smiled and greeted: “Ms. Margaret, good morning, I am Xia Yu.”
There was silence for two seconds on the other end of the phone, and then Marguerite’s slightly enthusiastic voice came again: “It turned out to be Mr. Xia. I haven’t seen you for a long time. I’m glad to receive your call.”
“I’m also very happy. You happened to be in the office and were able to receive this call.” Xia Yu responded with a smile.
A simple greeting, Xia Yu didn’t procrastinate, and didn’t want to give Margaret too much time to think, so he went straight to the point.
“Ms. Margaret, next time I go to the UK, I will invite you to enjoy afternoon tea. As for now, you are busy with official duties, so I won’t be too long-winded. In the British Parliament the day before yesterday, your Conservative Party MP proposed the ” “Proposal”, which caused turmoil in Xiangjiang society. I want to know, what is your attitude towards it?”
Sure enough, such a sharp question was thrown directly, and Margaret remained silent for a long time, obviously considering how to answer it appropriately.
And her answer after thinking about it was not beyond Xia Yu’s expectation. She wanted to push responsibility and delay.
“Mr. Xia, I was also surprised by this “Proposal” because it was not my idea. In the past two days, the entire political arena has been rather chaotic around this matter. There may be no results in a short time. This matter has already It’s beyond my control.”
Xia Yu sneered: “Haha~”
“Ms. Margaret, you are called the Iron Lady, and the Conservative Party also controls the majority of seats in the House of Commons. There is nothing beyond your control in the UK. The key depends on whether you want to do it.”
“So in this matter, I hope you can suppress it as early as possible before the matter further ferments.”
“Xiangjiang is my hometown. You should be very clear about how much effort and effort I have put in to build Xiangjiang. It is impossible for me to watch my efforts being destroyed. This is my bottom line.”
The tone of Xia Yu’s words was a bit heavy, and most people would be uncomfortable to hear it. What’s more, for a person like Margaret in a high position?
Su Xingjian, who was sitting by the side, did not know when his complexion became very serious, and he was sitting upright, but his ears were erect.
Soon, Marguerite’s cold voice came from the receiver: “Mr. Xia, I understand your feelings, but you must know that this involves the interests of the United Kingdom. Although we are friends, I should represent the people. Benefits, listen to the voice of the people.”
Xia Yu sneered, Margaret cautiously did not dare to say that he wanted to put pressure on her.
“Ms. Margaret, I, a businessman, shouldn’t interfere with Xiangjiang’s problem, but I have already paid a lot of benefits back then.”
“The development of Xiangjiang today has nothing to do with the United Kingdom. It was developed by us. Without the capital of more than five billion pounds that I got to invest in the United Kingdom, Xiangjiang’s current situation would only be better.”
“If there was no key information provided by me back then, Britain would not have won the battle of Falkland Islands. If the war failed, would Britain still have the current prestige?”
“I have done everything that should be done and what can be done.”
“For the UK, I and my allies have always been very supportive.”
“But now, we are very disappointed. If Britain turns away from acknowledging people, we can only defend our interests in our own way.”
“Hong Kong is our foundation. We can abandon all investments outside Hong Kong, especially in the UK.”
“I just don’t know, can the British economy bear it?”
“Even if those things are announced, how much credibility will the British government have in capital?”
A series of words, like sharp arrows, pierced Marguerite’s heart.
Even if it spanned nearly one-third of the earth, Xia Yu could still hear Marguerite’s heavy breathing through the earpiece. It was obvious that Marguerite was in a bad mood at this time.
It’s just that she couldn’t vent her anger to Xia Yu, after all, it was indeed their fault.
And Xia Yu is a top-level capitalist, and her influence on Britain cannot be underestimated. She can behave rascals to others, but she can’t do the same to Xia Yu.
After a long time.
Margaret finally gave Xia Yu an answer, but Xia Yu was still not satisfied.
“Mr. Xia, I will always pay attention to this matter and take care of the emotions of the citizens of Xiangjiang. Please don’t worry, I will call you back in a few days.”
“…”
“Patter!”
The attitude of the statement was also expressed, and after a few more words that were not nutritious, the two sides ended the conversation, and Xia Yu put down the phone.
He looked at Su Xingjian, who knew the inside story for the first time. The latter’s shocked appearance made Xia Yu smile.
“Governor Su, you also heard it just now. I have taken the pressure on my own initiative. Please try your best to stabilize the situation.”
“Okay, please rest assured!” Su Xingjian returned to his senses and said hurriedly, with a more respectful attitude than before.
His previous understanding of Xia Yu was still too one-sided…
After that, Su Xingjian stayed for a while, and then took the initiative to leave with an excuse.
After Xia Yu thought about it for a while, he picked up the encrypted phone and called George Berkeley of the Bright Fund.
The result of this call.
It was at three o’clock in the afternoon London time that George Berkeley’s car drove brightly into Downing Street.
…
Margaret, who stopped her official duties, looked at George Berkeley who came with a smile, but she felt bitter in her heart, but she had to show enough enthusiasm.
“President Berkeley, welcome to Downing Street.”
“Ms. Margaret, excuse me!”
“Don’t disturb, please sit down!”
“thanks.”
“…”
In the office, after the secretary served the two coffee separately, the others were sent away by Margaret, leaving only Margaret and George Berkeley.
“President Berkeley, do you have anything to do with me?”
Margaret leaned sideways on the sofa in a relatively comfortable position, smiling at George Berkeley.
George Berkeley said with a serious face: “Ms. Margaret, the Hong Kong stock market plummeted today, and our investment in Hong Kong lost a lot, and we expect the loss to be even greater in the future.”
“This is just a loss in the financial sector.”
“In addition to financial investment, we also have other large-scale investments in Xiangjiang. The most typical one is the Rolls-Royce Motor Group. Xiangjiang is the most important production and assembly base of the Rolls-Royce Motor Group in Asia. Now the society of Xiangjiang is turbulent. , Has affected the company’s normal production and operation.”
“I hope that the government can give us a stable business and investment environment, and don’t let some sinister people get benefits.”
Marguerite secretly said, and the smile on her face quickly faded.
She sighed and said sincerely: “President Berkeley, I understand your feelings, but this matter is not led by me. It is difficult for me to help you solve it.”
“However, I suggest that the Bright Fund can stop losses in time and withdraw funds. There are still many investment opportunities in the UK, and the government will also provide preferential investment policies.”
George Berkeley shook his head decisively: “Ms. Margaret, going out of the UK and developing a globalization strategy is the fundamental strategy of our company, and this will not change.”
“This strategy is also deeply tied to the economic development of the United Kingdom. If it hadn’t been for our company to make enough profits abroad over the years and bring it back to China, we would not be able to make so much investment in China.”
“If we abandon our investments in Hong Kong and Asia now, we will need to spend several times the price to re-enter the market in the future.”
“Moreover, part of the assets that the royal family gave us to take care of has also been put in Xiangjiang. Now it is on the verge of loss. In any case, we will not let this part of the asset lose!”
“Therefore, there is only one result we can accept, that is, Xiangjiang will regain and quickly restore stability, and give everyone a good investment environment.”
Marguerite looked tangled and embarrassed.
“President Berkeley, after all, Xiangjiang is still under our jurisdiction. I also sincerely hope that Xiangjiang will be stable, but the situation surrounding this matter is still very complicated, and I cannot give you an answer for the time being.”
George Berkeley stared at her scorchingly, and said righteously: “Ms. Margaret, you should be very clear about the situation behind this incident.”
“This matter has been a struggle of capital from beginning to end, but some people want to use the British government as a gun.”
“Who are those people?”
“And who are we to you?”
“I hope you can always have a clear understanding and not be influenced by other people.”
George Berkeley was a little thirsty when he said that, he stopped to take a sip of coffee, and saw Margaret’s face change, he continued.
“I don’t want to say too much, I just want to show our attitude.”
“HeungKong’s investment is part of our ultra-high growth, and we will never give up.”
“The enemy wants me to cut meat, it is absolutely impossible!”
“If the situation is urgent, we will throw away those low-yield assets in the UK and mobilize funds to go to Hong Kong to protect our interests. Only after victory can the funds return.”
“Three billion pounds will not work, it will be five billion pounds, and if it will not work, it will be 10 billion pounds, and there will be no cap until it is won!”
“As for other investments in the country, we are very relieved, and we hold the mentality of holding for a long time, and will not care about market fluctuations.”
Margaret couldn’t sit still now.
I don’t care about market fluctuations. To put it bluntly, it does not matter whether the UK’s financial order and economy will be stable.
The Bright Fund really wants to transfer tens of billions of pounds out of the UK, and the UK stock market will definitely fall sharply, and this is not the most terrifying.
The scariest thing is the foreign exchange market!
Britain’s foreign exchange reserves will all be hollowed out, exposing the deadly key, and then the pound exchange rate, which has risen due to the “Plaza Accord”, will most likely be attacked.
If Xia Yu also withdraws a large sum of money, then the economic order in the UK has just been on the uphill…
Thinking of this, Margaret shuddered.
Seeing George Berkeley’s serious expression, Margaret was in a terrible mood, even more annoyed than being threatened by Xia Yu in the morning.
And she also knew that when George Berkeley came to her, there must be Xia Yu behind him.
Just have to say.
Xia Yu is indeed moving towards her vitals.
Margaret doesn’t care whether Xiangjiang is stable or not.
But she absolutely cannot accept the destruction of the British economic order.
At this moment, Margaret finally compromised.
She squeezed a grudging smile: “President Berkeley, Hong Kong is the jewel of the Orient in the hands of the United Kingdom. As long as it is in the hands of the United Kingdom, we have the responsibility and obligation to ensure its prosperity and stability.”
George Berkeley also smiled: “I believe in Ms. Margaret’s ability, I will wait and see!”
“I still have something to do, so I won’t bother, and I will visit again when I have a chance. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com”
“Okay, I’ll give it to you!”
After personally sending George Berkeley out the door, Margaret turned and walked quickly to the office, a face stinking all the way.
She must do something, and she can’t let this farce last too long, she can’t afford the risk!
And not long after George Berkeley left, Evelyn Lowhill, who received the news, hurried back to discuss with Jacob Lowhill.
Xia Yu and the others have already fought back, and they must be vigilant again and not let the great situation be destroyed.
What Evelyn Rohill and others didn’t know was that Xia Yu’s series of actions were not only really to intimidate Margaret, but they were also shown to them.
This reaction is normal.
Otherwise, it will be indifferent, and it will make the Rohill family and other bears suspicious, and it will not be too beautiful if there is an accident…
