The next day.

Hardy first came to the Wells Fargo Bank for inspection. The office of Wells Fargo Bank was originally a foreign bank, located in Central on Hong Kong Island, which is the famous Hong Kong Financial Street in the later generations.

President Sandy Weir reported to Hardy on the development of Wells Fargo's business in Hong Kong over the past year. Generally speaking, it is mainly stable.

Although Hong Kong still has HSBC, Hardy has a different division of labor between the two. HSBC faces the entire Hong Kong business, and the rich country is the core engine of the Hardy Group.

In the future, the group's funds in Hong Kong will mainly follow the line of rich countries, so that Hardy's industrial core in Hong Kong will not be easy for others to understand.

After coming out of Wells Fargo Bank, Victor and Sandy Will accompany Hardy to HSBC Bank, which is also on the Central Ring Road, which is only a few hundred meters away from Wells Fargo.

The convoy came to the door of HSBC.

A group of senior HSBC executives, managers and above, all waited in line at the door. There were dozens of people, knowing that they must be the big ones, which attracted the surrounding customers and curious people to stop and watch.

Hardy got out of the car.

HSBC President Sanders stepped forward immediately.

People who watched the excitement around said that for such a big show to welcome a young man, this young man must have come from an extraordinary background.

At this time, someone next to him whispered: "I have read the newspaper. This should be Mr. Hardy. He is only 28 years old this year and is already one of the richest people in the United States."

"Oh, it turns out that this is Mr. Hardy. I heard people say that a lot of people are discussing the Hardy Group recently. I always thought that Mr. Hardy would be an old man. I didn't expect to be so young, only 28 years old."

After the crowd chatted for a while, Hardy didn't enter the door in a hurry, but stopped and watched from the HSBC building.

The current HSBC building is the third generation, a 13-story building with side buildings on both sides.

A pair of bronze lions stood at the door.

This pair of copper lions is very famous. It is said that there were two copper lions at the headquarters of Shanghai HSBC. Later, during the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong, due to the shortage of supplies, the two copper lions were taken away and prepared for copper smelting. This shows how short they are.

Later, the atomic bomb came down and Japan surrendered. The U.S. Army found the pair of bronze lions in the warehouse. Knowing that they belonged to HSBC, they switched back. In this way, the two guys returned to their posts.

There are rumors in later generations.

The bronze lion is displaced and Hong Kong suffers.

There was a move during the Japanese occupation, and Hong Kong was unlucky for three years. Later, HSBC rebuilt it. In 1983, the old HSBC building was demolished and the bronze lion temporarily moved. The stock market crashed in Hong Kong and the stock market plummeted.

There is another argument.

It is said that HSBC occupies the Dragon Cave at the foot of Cheqishan Mountain. This acupoint is called Tianma Drink**. It is an excellent location for both wealth and financial situation. However, there is a bit of a bad thing. This is the location directly opposite Tsim Sha Tsui. , The copper lion is used to block the evil.

certainly,

These are all superstitions.

Hardy is~~ **** believe this.

He can be reborn into this world, originally it was impossible to believe these things.

When selecting a site for the museum before, a Feng Shui master said that the place was the place of the Dragon's Den in Lion Rock, and Hardy did not hesitate to build the museum there.

Others don't know why the big boss stopped and looked at the door, but they all dared not say anything. After a while, Hardy spoke: "Remember, no matter how this changes in the future, the pair of bronze lions should not move."

There is no such thing as'the bronze lion is displaced and Hong Kong suffers.'

People were a little surprised at the big boss's order, but they still quickly agreed.

The boss said that if he didn't let him move, he wouldn't move. Who would move such a heavy copper lion if nothing happened.

Hardy stepped forward and patted the two bronze lions, "Take care of the door for me." After speaking, he walked into the building with a smile.

Conference room.

Hardy listened to reports from HSBC’s management. Now HSBC’s funds are still tight. Although Wells Fargo and Manhattan Bank have supported them 40 million U.S. dollars, so many people who withdraw money, especially Hardy let Wells Fargo Bank operate this The money was taken away again and again.

Although it is difficult, fortunately, there is no survival issue.

President Sanders’ future operations will mainly be to tighten money, reduce loans, withdraw funds as much as possible, reduce the rate of bad debts, and carry out some activities to increase people’s confidence in HSBC and re-absorb deposits.

As for the details of the operation, Hardy did not intervene. After Sanders finished his report, Hardy said: "Two things. Silver, this is a good time to absorb deposits. HSBC and Wells Fargo cannot slacken their efforts in this business."

"Secondly, the scale of the Hong Kong stock market is not large. The reason is that there were three stock exchanges in Shanghai, Tianjin, and Peiping in the inland area. The financial center was in Shanghai. Two financial centers."

"The Hong Kong Stock Exchange is too small now. There are only more than 30 companies listed. However, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange belongs to the Financial Secretary. We can't move it. My idea is to re-create a stock exchange by myself. "

"It can be called the Far East Stock Exchange or the Kowloon Stock Exchange. It doesn't matter. The exchange bank is listed under the names of HSBC and Wells Fargo, imitating the U.S. stock market and setting up a financial index to show the market's rise and fall."

At this time, the Hang Seng Index does not yet exist.

"In the future, Hardy Group companies can choose to list on this stock exchange, and other companies can also list here. The types of stocks include shipping warehouses, hotels, restaurants, real estate construction, financial investment, retail, toys, industry, etc. Slowly cultivate the market to make Hong Kong's finance active."

A group of executives from HSBC and Wells Fargo kept writing in their notebooks.

To be honest, they were a little shocked.

To establish a new stock exchange and build Hong Kong into a financial center like Shanghai, the boss's heart is really big.

Now the mainland wars are happening again and again.

The future of Hong Kong is confusing.

Many people are worried, including those established foreign firms, who are reducing their assets one after another, ready to flee Hong Kong at any time.

And at this time,

But Mr. Hardy kept investing and looked confident in the future of Hong Kong. How could they not be surprised.

Having said this, Hardy talked about another topic.

"It just so happens that you are all here. Here, I will tell you about the industrial plan of Hong Kong, so that you can have a clear outline in your heart."

Everyone immediately sat down and looked at the boss.

"HSBC will operate independently in the future and will only be under the jurisdiction of the HSBC board of directors."

"Wells Fargo Bank Hong Kong Branch is a branch of Wells Fargo Bank and is only under the jurisdiction of Wells Fargo Bank Headquarters."

"The Hong Kong branch of HD Security is also the Hong Kong branch of HD Security and Defense, and it is not under the command of others."

"There are also Global Times and ABC TV stations, which are only under the direct control of higher authorities."

"As for the remaining industries, a Hong Kong branch of the Hardy Group will be formed. This company will be in charge of Victor. The industries include all enterprises in the Jiulongtang Industrial Zone, penicillin companies, auction companies, and Hardy Properties. New company."

"As long as the company is not under the direct jurisdiction of other branches of the group, it belongs to the Hong Kong branch."

Many people say.

The shelf of this Hong Kong branch is actually no different from the group company.

Leaving HSBC, Victor also sat in this car. Hardy said to Victor: "Look back and see if there is a suitable building, and buy it as the branch headquarters. You, the president of the branch, don’t have to squeeze in the auction. Company."

"You also have a bunch of vice presidents, managers, and dedicated finance and lawyer teams, and you need to have a suitable location."

"In the future, Yezhen will be based in Hong Kong. She likes antiques. She will still be in charge of the auction house. When you find the headquarters, you will leave it to Yezhen." Hardy said.

"I understand the boss, I will find a suitable place as soon as possible." Victor said quickly.

This auction company seems to be the boss who made toys for Miss Han from the beginning. This is the case in the United States, and the same is true in Hong Kong.

In fact, if it weren't for this auction house, it would not have had the opportunity to come to Hong Kong, nor would it be possible to achieve what it is today.

So from the bottom of his heart, he is very grateful to Han Yezhen.

Back to the Mid-Levels Villa.

It was still in the afternoon, and the sun was very warm. Hardy and Victor were chatting in the backyard, and the servant brought coffee snacks.

After taking a sip of coffee, Hardy said, "Victor, where do you think Hong Kong should build a racecourse?"

Victor was taken aback for a moment.

The boss's thinking is always so active, so he jumped to the racecourse again.

"You want to build a racecourse in Hong Kong?"

Hardy smiled softly, "Did you not notice that the Hong Kong Jockey Club gathers all the people of the upper class in Hong Kong, and the Jockey Club has become a collective of rights. We, the Hardy Group, need to hold more rights and we must be at the Jockey Club. Have a certain right to speak."

"Establishing a racecourse is only the first step. Next, I have to join the Jockey Club and become another racecourse of the Jockey Club. What I want is the right to receive members of the Jockey Club."

"Now there are very few Chinese members in the Jockey Club. In the future, we can absorb a large number of Chinese members and become a new force. When our business is established, the overall strength will gradually surpass those established foreign firms."

Victor finally understood the meaning of Hardy's club.

"Boss, we still have a large piece of land in Sha Tin. Would you like to build a racecourse over there?" Victor asked.

Hardy was taken aback for a moment.

History always converges surprisingly in the same direction.

Isn’t the second racecourse in Hong Kong the Shatin Racecourse in later generations? Now that the land has been acquired by Victor, when Hardy wanted to build a racecourse, it was naturally the object of consideration.

Hardy thought for a while but shook his head.

"No, it's on the Kowloon side. Find a land larger than Happy Valley to build a new racecourse. I'll talk about it later in Sha Tin." Hardy said.

It’s inconvenient to go to Sha Tin now. It’s a long way to cross the mountain. Now there is no tunnel. Kowloon is not as crowded as later generations. You can take out a large piece of land. I have already told Ge Lianghong to buy land. This side of Kowloon.

There is a large population here~www.readwn.com~ It will be much more convenient to start horse racing in the future. As for the Hong Kong government at that time, the Hong Kong government disagrees.

Doesn't matter,

The big deal is to open a casino in Macau, using the telephone betting model, horse racing in Hong Kong, horse betting in Macau, and telephone betting, which perfectly bypasses the geographical boundaries.

Moreover, the construction of a racecourse here in Kowloon also has the function of staking horses. Now it occupies a large area. When the land here is tight and needs to be taken out, it is estimated that the roads in other parts of Hong Kong have been repaired and cars have become popular. At that time, consider relocating to Sha Tin. It is estimated that the space for the racecourse can be sold for tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars.

Many families in Hong Kong will be like this in later generations.

There used to be a company, but it hasn't made much money, and finally sold the land altogether for more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Still one of the ten richest people in Hong Kong.
