Chapter 118 Fatal Blow

Chapter 118 A fatal blow

If Fang Hexuan hadn't appeared,

Huanggua is sure to become the number one Chinese businessman in Hong Kong and will also become the mainstay of the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce.

In the 1940s and 1950s in Hong Kong, chambers of commerce and social groups were deeply intertwined.

The Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce is naturally the backstage and financial sponsor of the Chaozhou Gang.

The Teochew gang is not just one gang. In fact, there are Sun Yee On, Fook Yi Hing, Chiu Yong Yee, Chiu Yong Sheng etc.

In fact, this division is not particularly accurate. Hutchison, 14K and Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce also have a good relationship.

Therefore, as a member of the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce, Huanggua has some understanding of Hong Kong communities.

If a conflict breaks out between societies, there is one rule that cannot be crossed:

That would bring harm to the family.

But Fang Hexuan had a business conflict with him.
He used his son as a threat, which made Huanggua so angry that he didn't even eat that night.

He called the president of the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce and scolded Fang Hexuan for his despicable tactics and said he was unfit to be a business leader in Hong Kong.

The president of the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce is somewhat related to Fang Hexuan.

This person was elected in the election in the second half of this year. He is Liu Lianwu, the third son of the Liu family, and Liu Juncheng's third uncle.

Fang Hexuan met this person when he attended Liu Juncheng's banquet.

Liu Lianwu was confused by Huanggua's output.

"What? You said Mr. Fang threatened you with your youngest son? Why don't I believe it? I've met him in person. He's quite a gentleman, not as evil as you say!"

This was his true inner thoughts when he received the complaint call from Huanggua.

But there is no way, as the president you have to worry about the interests of the members.

He first called Cao Bozhong, the president of the Ningbo Association, and asked him for Fang Hexuan's phone number.

"Mr. Fang, I regret not helping you and Mr. Li Ka-shing to resolve the conflict before, but we are all Chinese, so stop fighting among yourselves."

"Mr. Liu, I don't understand what you are talking about. If you have anything to say, please speak up."

"Mr. Li said that you threatened him with his youngest son. I don't know whether it is true or not. Please ask Mr. Fang to take the initiative to explain to the outside world to avoid misunderstandings."

"Threatening with his son? I still don't quite understand."

".He said you had someone follow him and take photos of his son in the United States."

"Are you kidding me? I'm the richest man in Hong Kong. I can beat him with money. Why would I use such low-class means?"

"I think it's Mr. Li who is not good at educating his children. Everyone knows that his second son is a playboy. Maybe he offended some local natives and was threatened with revenge."

"Mr. Fang, this matter really has nothing to do with you?"

"Haha, Mr. Liu, if I really want to deal with him, I can uproot his Li family from Hong Kong. Do you believe it?"

"."

"Okay, Mr. Liu, I know what you said. Please tell him that my tricks haven't started yet!"

Liu Lianwu heard the beeping sound from the phone and smiled bitterly.

He also didn't believe that Fang Hexuan would do such a dirty thing, so he put himself in his shoes.
If he had a net worth of tens of billions, just shorting Cheung Kong would be enough to make Li Ka-shing suffer.

Huanggua was so angry when she received the reply call from President Liu that her nose almost got crooked.

He has been in the business world for decades, but has never seen such a shameless and shameless person.

He was sure that it was definitely the other party who did it, even if he didn't admit it.

But there was no way. Being angry would not help. I could only hire a bodyguard to go to the United States to protect that brat.

Fang Hexuan's move was indeed very lethal, and it could be said that it hit the cucumber's vital point. If he didn't know history, he would definitely not bother to use this move.

But no matter how useful he is, Fang Hexuan certainly can't really deal with Huanggua's family.

To put it bluntly, it's just to scare the cucumber.

In the original time and space, Huanggua could pay a ransom of 10 billion Hong Kong dollars for his eldest son.

This shows that in his heart, his own flesh and blood are more important than money, and he still has some humanity.

Fang Hexuan looks down on Huanggua, but he can't be more inhumane than this guy.

However, he also felt that the cucumber should thank him.

After all, if Cucumber was smart enough, after this incident, he should have thought of providing bodyguards for himself and his family.

Among the wealthy people in Hong Kong, the media commented that Fang Hexuan is the most afraid of death, no doubt about it.

TVB was even kind enough to ask experts to analyze the reasons.

These so-called experts have a lot of ideas, but to sum up,

It's nothing more than saying that Fang Hexuan is young and has a net worth of 10 billion.

If he was kidnapped, wouldn't it be a tragedy that he had lost all his money?

After hearing this explanation, Fang Hexuan said to his mother and sister:
"Hong Kong experts are just as idiots. Do they really think that every corner of this world is peaceful and happy at all times?"

"Don't listen to these idiots. Don't be annoyed by the bodyguards I assigned to you. They can save your lives at the critical moment."

After Huanggua finished calling his youngest son who was far away in California, he felt a little relieved, but then felt a little guilty.

He didn't know whether he needed to persist or not, as this opponent didn't follow any rules at all.

The other party also said that many of their methods were useless. Is this just a bluff or do they really have a trick up their sleeve?

The next day, Huanggua had just finished handling the compensation issue for the worker who jumped from the building.
The financial director who came in hurriedly told me something even worse—

HSBC has suspended its cooperation with Cheung Kong Holdings in several commercial property development projects.

In a word, if HSBC wants to stop lending, the next step may be to withdraw loans!
When Cucumber heard the news, his slightly sallow old face suddenly turned pale.

He was not panicking because of the problem with the project loan, but if even HSBC did not support him,

Then he will definitely lose the arm wrestling match with Fang Hexuan this time!
If it weren't for Fang Hexuan, Huanggua would definitely be the chosen one of this time and space, and the most influential partner of HSBC in the Chinese business community.

Again, HSBC is more than just a savings bank; it is a hub connecting various intricate business relationships.

Huanggua's good relationship with HSBC actually means that it has indirectly acquired HSBC's rich business network resources.

Even if Fang Hexuan suddenly appeared, HSBC and Hutchison Whampoa had a good relationship, otherwise they would not have agreed to sell him 4000 million shares of Hutchison Whampoa.

But it is obvious that in this two-person game, HSBC stood on Fang Hexuan's side.

Given the bank's savvy, they must be more optimistic about their rivals.

How could this not discourage the ambitious cucumber?
Although the business world is like a battlefield, it is not a real battlefield where you have to fight to the death.

Even if he has the courage to "go forward even if there are tens of thousands of people against me", he still needs the cooperation of his opponents.

Huanggua felt as if he had aged a dozen years during this period, and most of his former vigor and vitality had disappeared.

Even when Wei Li from Hutchison Whampoa called him to tell him that the cooperation was suspended, he couldn't get excited or angry at all.

It's fate and time. It's not that I didn't work hard, but my opponent has Gundam!
