Family Centennial, Rising from Hong Kong Island

Lao Zhang's wife started rambling on, talking about money.

His 140 family ordered fish balls. Although they didn't make a lot of money, they still made a lot of money on weekdays.

Affected by the economic crisis, even the number of people eating fish balls has dropped by more than half.

"Oh, don't worry about that for now, just listen to me first." If Lao Huang didn't let him speak out about this matter, it would suffocate him to death.

He didn't want to be a joke anymore, and said directly: "This afternoon, Mr. Su Shaoze sent someone to send Lao Huang a wreath."

After finishing speaking, he stared at his wife's face closely, and it was exactly as he imagined.

His wife's expression froze for a moment.

"Mr. Su? Is that Mr. Su from Yinhe Group?"

Lao Zhang patted his thigh: "That's right, it's that Mr. Su."

"Didn't think of it? I didn't think of it either."

"You don't know, when you knew that the wreath was sent by Mr. Su, those people in the mourning hall all had expressions on their faces. That was wonderful."

"Hey, just like you are now."

……

Lao Zhang told his wife what happened at that time with eloquence, and his broken mouth played a role.

"Mr. Su used to work in Lao Huang's restaurant?" Lao Zhang's wife said in disbelief.

Like most people think, a boss as big as Su Shaoze, the richest man in Hong Kong Island with a net worth of tens of billions, has worked part-time before?

"Of course."

"Mr. Su is not a rich second generation who relied on his parents to make his fortune, but a real self-made man."

"When I first came to Hong Kong Island, I was poor and white. I used to work in Lao Huang's restaurant, but he left soon."

"How can there be a real dragon hidden in his little pond!"

"And I heard that Mr. Su and Mrs. Su met at Lao Huang's restaurant back then, and Lao Huang can be regarded as the elder of the two."

……

"It turned out to be like this!" Lao Zhang's wife listened attentively, with a look of surprise on her face, and she will have another topic to talk about when she talks to those old sisters tomorrow.

"Old Huang knows such a big man, how can he be so bad?"

"I opened a tea restaurant all my life, and my son lost all my savings at the end of it."

Lao Zhang also looked sorry for him: "It's not that old Huang Huang has a stubborn temper, he can't save face, and he doesn't want to cause trouble for Mr. Su."

"It's me! I've begged to come to the door a long time ago. Don't talk about anything else. For such a big boss, even a little grain of sand leaking from the cracks of his fingers can make us full."

Old Zhang's daughter-in-law also nodded hurriedly: "Yes! This old Huang has to think about his son and grandson if he doesn't think about himself! His head is dead."

"Why do you think Lao Huang is so lucky? It would be great if Mr. Su could have worked in our fish ball shop back then. It's only a few tens of meters away!"

Both Lao Zhang and his daughter-in-law looked regretful.

If it was possible to have a romantic relationship with Su Shaoze back then, even if it was to say a few more words, it would be great!

If you ask for help when you are in trouble, people will remember who you are.

"Okay, this is also Lao Huang's luck, good luck, and the nobleman will think about it after he dies."

"Let's just imagine how we will live next month! Business is getting worse and worse." Lao Zhang's daughter-in-law said.

Back to reality, they are still the ordinary fish ball shop boss and lady boss.

Worry about running around for money.

Just at this moment, Lao Zhang's daughter-in-law suddenly said loudly to the TV: "Look, isn't this Mr. Su?"

Su Shaoze?

Lao Zhang looked at the TV, which was showing a press conference.

Standing in front of the microphone was a young man, wearing a suit, with a straight figure and a stern face, very handsome.

It was Su Shaoze!

Although he has always been very low-key, but sometimes his photos will appear in newspapers and on TV.

Coupled with his status as the richest man, most people on Hong Kong Island can recognize him at a glance.

"It's really Mr. Su." Lao Zhang said excitedly.

In the past, I didn't feel anything. I felt that I was far away from others, and my status was very different, so it was impossible to have any communication.

But now, knowing that the place where Su Shaoze worked was tens of meters away from his fish ball shop, Lao Zhang feels more and more cordial to Su Shaoze.

"What did he say?" Lao Zhang's daughter-in-law asked curiously. She couldn't read, so don't think that the level of literacy on Hong Kong Island is so high.

Hong Kong Island uses traditional Chinese characters, and there are many people who cannot read, especially some women.

"It seems to be a donation~" Lao Zhang hurriedly turned up the volume of the TV.

"Asia News Agency reported that in recent days, the financial crisis sweeping the world has spread to Hong Kong Island. A large number of enterprises have closed down, employees have lost their jobs, and the people at the bottom have lost their basic living security."

……

"Mr. Su Shaoze donated one billion Hong Kong dollars to the charity fund on behalf of the Galaxy Group to protect the basic needs of residents affected by the stock market disaster."

"Ensure that poor children go to school normally, and ensure the lives of lonely and widowed elderly..."

The following are some measures to buy a large amount of basic living materials locally on Hong Kong Island and distribute them.

On the one hand, it can solve the living needs of the people at the bottom, allowing them to use the money where they are urgently needed.

On the other hand, these orders are all completed on Hong Kong Island, which can bring vitality to those companies that are about to close down and employment opportunities for some unemployed people.

Looking at the news report, looking at the young man on the screen.

Lao Zhang said with emotion: "One billion Hong Kong dollars, how many people's lives can be changed!"

"Mr. Su is a good man!".

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Fuck, the devil will congratulate you!" David muttered.

Obviously, his jealous eyes were red, and he said angrily: "I'm here to tell you that you have caused a lot of trouble in the United States this time, and some people are very dissatisfied with you."

The financial crisis ravaged the world, the entire United States evaporated two trillion dollars, countless businesses closed down, workers lost their jobs, and those guys on Wall Street also suffered heavy losses.

However, these people from the Hong Kong Island Consortium have made a lot of money, and some people must think they are not pleasing to the eye.

As for this, Su Shaoze shook his head lightly, not worried at all.

"Not satisfied? Who is it?"

"Citibank? Or Morgan? Or those cowboys out west?"

"It seems that before the stock market crash, the opponent who signed the gambling agreement with me was Citibank."

"Based on the current market, how much will Citibank pay me when the agreement ends?"

"Two billion dollars? Or three billion?"

"In short, this bet on Citibank must have lost, and the money must be given to me."

"Whether they are satisfied or not, I care what the loser thinks? Which loser have you ever met who would be happy?"

Before the stock market crash, Su Shaoze mainly did two things, speculating in futures indexes and shorting the stock market.

And the opponents of the gambling agreement signed by shorting the stock market are more than a dozen banks including Citibank.

The moment the stock market crash happened, they would definitely lose.

Although this amount of money is far from being as much as that earned by speculating in futures index, it is more stable and does not have such strong heartbeat fluctuations.

You must know that Su Shaoze's assets may increase or decrease by several hundred million for every index change in the futures index.

Very exciting.

In comparison, the VAM agreement is not so dangerous, and of course it does not have such great benefits.

Holding the phone and standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, Su Shaoze said in a serious voice: "We have to face each other, and conflicts are inevitable."

"They are not satisfied, let them come."

The cake is only so big in total. If the Hong Kong Island Consortium wants to rise, it must eat other people's cakes.

Conflicts will naturally occur, and some people will naturally have strong dissatisfaction with the Hong Kong Island consortium.

The top ten consortiums in the United States are all potential opponents of the Hong Kong Island consortium.

But Su Shaoze is not a person who does not know the heights of the sky and the earth.

It is the time for the Hong Kong Island consortium to grow and exert its strength, and it is impossible to be an enemy of all consortiums.

So what Su Shaoze moved was only some people's cakes.

Win over and divide, and treat some of them as friends and others as enemies.

Obviously, the Rockefeller consortium is Su Shaoze's friend, and their losses in the stock market crash are not serious.

The most serious loss is the First Citigroup consortium.

As one of the three major consortiums in the east, both the old consortia that rose a hundred years ago, there is competition between the Rockefeller consortium and the Citibank consortium.

It is very important to divide and draw, and to figure out who is friend and who is enemy.

"Okay, I just want to remind you that you will have many opponents in the United States in the future." David said gloatingly.

"Hehe, isn't this a good thing for you?"

"The enemy of an enemy is a friend. With me, the pressure on your Rockefeller consortium can be relieved." Su Shaoze said lightly.

Provoking David's protest: "Hmph, arrogant guy."

However, it has to be admitted that the current strength of the Hong Kong Island consortium is enough to be regarded as a large international consortium, and it already has the qualifications to compete and cooperate with the top ten consortiums in the United States.

Moreover, the geographical location of the Hong Kong Island consortium determines that they have deeper potential.

The foundation of the Hong Kong Island Consortium is the Far East, and no one can compete with them except the Island Consortium.
