Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong - Chapter 943

HSBC.

Shen Bi, a bank executive, is sitting on the boss chair and is reviewing a loan document.

The lender is Hong Kong Cheung Kong Industrial Company, and the legal person applying for the loan is the big boss Li Jiacheng.

Since the last time Shi Zhijian was rumored to be kidnapped by pirates and finally torn apart, Shen Bi began to have close contact with the Fu family, Li Jiacheng and others, and established a good “honeymoon period” with Li Jiacheng and others.

As a banker, Shen Bi never talked about feelings, let alone hanged from a tree, so as soon as Shi Zhijian lost his use value, Shen Bi turned around and fought with Li Jiacheng.

Even if he finally learned that Shi Zhijian’s “death” was just a rumor, Shen Bi didn’t take it seriously.

In his opinion, Shi Zhijian’s death has little effect on him. If he doesn’t die, everyone will continue to cooperate in the future, and he doesn’t need to salivate to ask Shi Zhijian to forgive his betrayal or something.

He is HSBC’s top class Shen Bi!

Others beg him!

For example, at this moment, the loan application materials in his hand are proof! Cheung Kong asked him to approve the loan! Treat him like a **** of wealth.

The “deep friendship” that he had established with Li Jiacheng appeared in his mind, Shen Bi smiled, and without hesitation, he picked up the pen and wrote “Agree, Shen Bi” at the back of the application. .

“Ring, ringing…” The phone rang.

Shen Bi hurriedly put down the application form and picked up the phone, but it was his secretary who called, “Sir, Mr. Thomas has arrived! The principals of the bank have already gone out to greet him!”

Shen Bi was taken aback, Thomas? The boss of HSBC’s London headquarters is also his immediate superior. Why did he suddenly arrive?

Without thinking about it, Shen Bi hurriedly hung up the phone, got up and walked to the window to take a look, only to see the caravan below slowly parked at the entrance of the HSBC Building.

Shen Bi hurriedly turned around and took his suit jacket, tidied up his tie, and hurriedly walked out. After a few steps, he hurriedly turned back, opened the drawer, took a few mints, and threw them into his mouth and chewed a few times. Then hurried to the outside.

When Shen Bi took the elevator to the door of the building, the person in charge of the bank who got the news had already lined up to supply the boss Thomas! Seeing Shen Bi, everyone nodded in greeting to Shen Bi.

Shen Bi also nodded as a response.

At this moment, the door of the black Lincoln sedan opened, and Thomas the Ghost, holding a civilization stick and a gold pocket watch hanging from his chest, got down from the car proudly.

Shen Bi, as a bank executive, took the lead to greet him, shook hands with Thomas and said, “Hello, Mr. Thomas! I’m glad you can come to Hong Kong!”

Thomas glanced at him, and then shook hands with Shen Bi gently, “If I have time, I would like to visit your office.”

“Of course you can, please!” Shen Bi muttered in her heart, not understanding how this ghost Thomas would suddenly arrive, and he had to inspect his office. He did a good job in his business, and he didn’t catch any braids!

Filled with doubts, Shen Bi smiled and accompanied Thomas to the elevator, and the group of bank supervisors took up the formation and watched Shen Bi and the others take the elevator upstairs.

…

Thomas entered Shen Bi’s office and glanced at the bright and spacious office with his blue eyes, especially the oil painting hanging on the wall behind Shen Bi’s desk.

That is Shen Bi’s “self-portrait”.

On the portrait, Shen Bi is elegant and handsome, full of the demeanor of a banker, but his posture is somewhat like the French Emperor Napoleon, who looks down on everything and despises everything!

Seeing that Thomas’ eyes stayed on his oil painting for a long time, Shen Bi hurriedly said: “I made you laugh, Mr. Thomas! This is what I made for people to paint for fun!”

Thomas nodded, then walked straight to Shen Bi’s boss chair, put down the civilization stick, and sat down proudly. Shen Bi could only stand in front of him very reserved and respectful.

After Thomas sat down, he didn’t finish speaking, but glanced at the materials and documents on Shen Bi’s desk.

Only then did Shen Bi remember that he forgot to put away the loan application from Cheung Kong Industrial Company.

Before Shen Bi could speak, Thomas had already reached out to take the document and looked over it carefully.

Shen Bi didn’t know why, but suddenly felt the atmosphere was a little depressed. He stood there and didn’t know what to do. Fortunately, the female secretary came in with coffee at this time.

Shen Bi hurriedly took the coffee and personally helped to place it in front of the boss Thomas.

Thomas raised his head and glanced at Shen Bi, then took out the gold pen in his pocket and pointed to the empty sofa in front of him, “You can also find a place to sit down and wait for me to read this information!” After that, he took out his glasses. On the bridge of the nose, it looks like an office.

Shen Bi looked at the empty sofa with some embarrassment.

The sofas are all his subordinates, and there are some places where customers who beg him sit.

In order to highlight her superiority, Shen Bi deliberately designed her desk and chair to be very high, but this sofa is very low, especially after people sit down, the whole body will sink in more than half involuntarily, looking down from the boss chair, Only half of their bodies can be seen.

Shen Bi bit her head and sat on the velvet cloth sofa, her body also sunk in like those before, and she could only look up at Thomas with a “upward” look.

After almost three minutes, Shen Bi felt that it was longer than half a century.

However, he saw that Thomas had written something on the document in his hand with a gold pen, so he raised his head and screwed the cap of the gold pen on, and said to Shen Bi, “Dear, what do you think I did to help you revise it?”

Shen Bi hurriedly got up and took the document that Thomas handed over. When he saw it, his face showed surprise, only to see that Thomas directly crossed out the instructions that he had agreed with, and wrote two words – veto!

“Mr. Thomas, you are—”

“What, do you have any comments on my revision?”

“Oh no, I respect your revisions! Yes, I have always respected you!” Shen Bi knew that this boss Thomas was arrogant and stubborn and resolute. If you objected to him, there would be absolutely no good fruit to eat. !

“Since you don’t object and respect me, then please sit down again! I’m not very comfortable with others, especially when my subordinates stand in front of me and speak to me in a condescending manner!”

“I’m sorry, Mr. Thomas!” Shen Bi was busy and respectful and sat back on the sofa again.

“Dear Shen Bi, you must be curious now, why did I reject you, right?” Thomas said with a smile after waiting for Shen Bi to sit down.

Shen Bi put her hands on her knees: “Yes, sir! From my professional point of view, Cheung Kong’s loan application meets our loan standards in every aspect!”

“So what? Do you think I’m arrogant and arbitrary?” Thomas smiled: “In that application, the loan amount was 30 million Hong Kong dollars, using Cheung Kong Industrial’s plastic flower factory and hardware factory as collateral! If it were changed to the previous one, indeed, the loan amount could be given to him! But now, the Hong Kong market for plastic flower factories and hardware factories is saturated, and the overseas competitiveness is no longer comparable to the emerging factories in Malaysia and Thailand! To be precise, whether it is Whether it is a plastic flower factory or a hardware factory, the ability to make profits has dropped significantly. Excuse me, how do you ask me to lend to them?”

“Although the competitiveness of these two factories has declined, the customer base is very stable! As long as they get the funds to expand the production scale, they will definitely be able to reverse the situation!” Shen Bi said with a deep breath.

“Expanding production? Don’t you know it yet? Dear Taipan Shen Bi! Your dear customer friend, the boss of Cheung Kong Industrial seems to have lost interest in plastic flowers and hardware, and instead wants to expand the real estate business!”

Shen Bi sat there and said neither humble nor arrogant: “Sir, this is just your guess! As a bank manager, I trust my customers!”

“Finance does not depend on trust!” Thomas said contemptuously to Shen Bi: “It depends on profit! People took our money to do a very risky real estate development, so what if you knew? A bad debt we can’t afford! If we make it, they won’t give us more money!”

“Can’t you give it a try?” After listening to Thomas’s words, Shen Bi still wanted to fight for it, her eyes were level with Thomas.

“Do you think you’re doing math? Can you give it a try?” Thomas rested his hands on the desk in a tower shape, looking at Shen Bi with burning eyes.

“I think it’s okay!” Shen Bi said to Thomas in a very serious tone, “Financial career is a career full of miracles, isn’t it? If you don’t give it a try, how can you know if the result is good or bad?”

The smile on Thomas’ face slowly faded away: “Dear Shen Bi, if it was before, I would definitely let you try it, because you are a special person who can make a great contribution to HSBC! But now, You’ve made me lose faith in you—–“

“Uh, what do you mean?” From the very beginning, Shen Bi felt that something was wrong with Thomas. He came to Hong Kong from London for no reason, and even inspected his own work, obviously finding fault!

Thomas stared at Shen Bi with blue eyes, and said in a bad tone: “Don’t you know? The Shinhwa Group is going to cancel the deposit of 300 million Hong Kong dollars! That is to say, HSBC will soon lose 300 million in vain!”

“What?” Shen Bi was shocked.

Myth to cancel the deposit?

Why doesn’t he know?

“Mr. Thomas, I must have heard it wrong, right?” Shen Bi stood up excitedly.

Thomas looked at him with a sneer, “Everything I said is true! It was Mr. Shi Zhijian from the Shinhwa Group who personally called and told me over there in London! Otherwise, do you think I’ll come to you when I have nothing to do?”

Shen Bi shook her body, ignoring the blame and contempt in Thomas’ tone.

“Why did he do this?”

“You ask me, who do I ask?” Thomas said coldly, “but I believe you should know the reason! It’s just that you don’t want to admit it!”

Shen Bi’s face was extremely ugly!

Of course he knows why!

The reason is that he betrayed Shi Zhijian!

He is willing to be a kind person for Shi Zhijian and will not hold grudges so much, but he is wrong!

Shi Zhijian not only held revenge, he was extremely cruel when he took revenge!

“Now, dear Shen Bi! Do you know why I came here now?” Thomas looked at Shen Bi expressionlessly and said, “Either you go to that Shi Zhijian, no matter what you do, kneel down or cry bitterly. Make sure he cancels this horrible plan! Or, darling, you can pack up and go back to England!”

Shen Bi swayed and almost fell!

This is the rhythm of getting fired!

“Do I still have a choice?”

Thomas smiled, picked up the big cigar in the humidor above Shen Bi’s desk, raised his legs, and sniffed under his nose in a leisurely manner: “What do you think? Either go down on your knees and beg that Shi Zhijian; or, right now. roll!”

Shen Bi closed his eyes and felt dizzy!

In the past, he thought he was the God of Wealth, and those Hong Kong tycoons would kneel down and beg him!

Now Shi Zhijian taught him a lesson, telling him what “rich is a master”!

Do you really want to kneel down for that Shi Zhijian?

Shen Bi only felt that her legs were weak and her body was weak!

…

In the end, Shen Bi took the initiative to call Shi Zhijian.

The call was answered by Shi Zhijian’s female secretary, and Shen Bi sincerely invited Shi Zhijian to meet at Lu Yu Teahouse.

She said on the other end of the phone that she would pass it on to Mr. Shi Zhijian and reply to him later.

Only then did Shen Bi say “Thank you”!

After hanging up the phone, Shen Bi stared at the phone, waiting for the call to reply.

One minute, two minutes.

Shen Bi lived like a year.

Jingle Bell!

The phone rang suddenly.

Shen Bi hurriedly grabbed the phone.

“Hello, Mr. Shen, Mr. Shi said that Lu Yu Teahouse will see you at twelve noon!”

“Okay, thank you!” Shen Bi was as happy as she had won the first prize, and hung up the phone to grind her fists, “What gifts should I bring to my dear Shi?”

…

At noon, Lu Yu Tea House.

Shen Bi actually doesn’t like coming here for tea and rice, because he likes coffee and British afternoon tea, not the salty and bitter Chinese tea, but many Hong Kong tycoons like this place.

Therefore, Shen Bi has been invited to sit here many times by the big bosses in Hong Kong who have asked for him.

Every time these people bring a lot of gifts, euphemistically called “local products”, and they have to let him accept them. If they don’t accept them, they will be very unhappy, saying that Shen Bi looks down on them.

Shen Bi was very contemptuous of such a small gesture.

But today, it was him who brought “local specialties”, and he was the one who asked for others.

Shen Bi carried Shi Zhijian’s favorite sweet-scented osmanthus cake into the hall of Lu Yu Teahouse.

The owner of the restaurant knew Shen Bi and knew that this ghost guy was amazing. He was a famous ghost guy and the God of Wealth. Many big bosses in Hong Kong liked to curry favor with him.

“Hello, Daban Shen, have you made an appointment with Mr. Shi? He is waiting for you in the private room upstairs!” After the boss finished speaking, he looked at the “gift” in Shen Bi’s hand in surprise.

Shen Bi pretended not to see the “surprised” look of the boss, and coughed: “Take me up!”

“Good Le!”

The boss held up his robe and coat and led Shen Bi up the stairs to the “Daffodil Hall” in the private room on the second floor.

The boss knocked on the door: “Mr. Shi, Shen Daban is here!”

“Please come in!” Shi Zhijian’s voice came from the room.

The boss opened the door and bowed to invite Shen Bi to enter.

As soon as Shen Bi entered, she was stunned.

Shi Zhijian was not alone in the room, but there was a ghost who was similar to himself! Hong Kong Standard Chartered Bank CEO ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Saipan!

What makes Shen Bi even more embarrassing is that this ghost guy from Saipan is just like himself, he is still standing at the moment, and he is also holding the same thing in his hand – the sweet-scented osmanthus cake that Shi Zhijian likes to eat!

Come on, it crashed!

Shen Bi moved the sweet-scented osmanthus cake she was holding behind her butt, intentionally or unintentionally!

Saibai and him stared at each other, feeling that the sweet-scented osmanthus cake they were holding was “heavy”.

The owner of the teahouse looked at the two ghosts in front of him and felt incredible for the first time! In the past, other people gave gifts to these two ghosts, but this time they gave gifts to Mr. Shi at the same time!

Mr. Shi, you are awesome!

The boss simply admired Shi Zhijian’s five bodies!

“Boss, please help us make a good pot of tea, and then serve some of the best snacks in your teahouse!” Shi Zhijian laughed when he saw the teahouse owner in a daze.

“Good!” The boss came to his senses, shouted hurriedly, and then went out and gently closed the door.
