actually

Li Guowei's concerns are also Yang Chen's concerns.

Previously, Yang Chen just wanted to teach Yihe a lesson, but human ambition is like this. When you are so powerful that you don't need to worry about your opponent, you will want to put the opponent to death.

However, Yihe, as a long-established foreign company, has a very great influence in Xiangjiang. If he wants to swallow up the other party, the Governor's Office will intervene to stop it.

After all, Jardine Matheson Company still contributed to the economic development of Xiangjiang. As one of the first batch of British-owned foreign companies to settle in Xiangjiang, the development of Jardine Matheson Road was largely supported by the Government-General's Office.

Fortunately, the former Governor MacLehose has resigned. Although the new Governor Youde is not very familiar with him, he also does not have a deep friendship with the senior officials of Jardine.

In this case, the opportunity is not impossible.

Hey, this is just the wishful thinking of Big Boss Yang. Jardine is a British-owned enterprise. As a British person, Governor Youde obviously cannot watch such an old foreign company being swallowed up by others.

"What is Mr. Li's impression of our new Governor Youde? If we take action against Jardine, will the Governor's Office intervene?"

Li Guowei frowned: "Chairman, the new Governor Youde is different from the previous Governor MacLehose. He is not a very talkative person."

Li Guowei is not only the general manager of Jardine, but also serves as a member of the two councils. He is considered a relatively influential Chinese figure in the Governor's Mansion and can directly talk to the Governor.

Press, that’s it.

Under the jurisdiction of the British, there was a big difference between the so-called parliamentarians and the democratically elected parliamentarians after Hong Kong became autonomous.

In Xiangjiang under the British control, the MPs were mainly used as a superficial project to win over the Chinese. It sounded nice, but in fact they had no rights at all, and at most they only received a few salaries.

"Isn't it easy to talk?"

Yang Chen smiled noncommittally. Whether politicians can talk well or not depends mainly on whether the person they are talking to is worthy of their attention. If they are serious people, even politicians who are not easy to talk to will smile at them.

After thinking about it, Yang Chen no longer considered whether the Governor's Office would intervene, and said directly: "I don't want to think about this matter now. The next step is the Sino-British negotiation. I think the Governor-General should not have time to take care of this trivial matter of ours.

"

Having said this, Yang Chen actually had one sentence in his heart that he had not said out loud, that is, even if the new governor steps forward to stop him, it still depends on whether he has the ability.

The word "Governor" would have been extremely valuable before World War II. When the British were powerful, local governors like Youde had astonishing powers.

During the war, even the army could be dispatched. The replacement of the governorship in each place required competition and compromise among various forces within the UK.

The benefits in the middle are far from what they can be compared to now.

As Britain's former colonies became independent one after another, the role of the governor-general became less and less important, and many British politicians were unwilling to go to independent countries to take over the position of governor-general.

Because once you take over the position of governor, you are equivalent to being exiled.

Of course, the position of governor here in Xiangjiang is still relatively important. Although the territory and population are smaller, it cannot support the good economic development.

However, no matter how good the economy is, it cannot change the fact that the position of Governor-General has declined in value within the UK.

The official level is overwhelming. Even though Xiangjiang is far away from the British mainland, with the changes of the times, the days when the sky is high and the emperor is far away are long gone.

Nowadays, most of the administrative orders of the Governor-General are issued directly by the British mainland, and the Governor's power has been severely reduced.

Now that he is making big moves in the UK, as long as he finds someone to talk to Governor Youde, whether he dares to come forward or not is a question.

As for the Jardine Matheson Group, to be honest, as a long-established foreign company, if the British power in Asia does not fade, they will naturally be able to find people to help.

Now, the UK itself is in such a state of disarray that it still has no time to care about the life and death of a foreign company that is mainly based in Asia.

Seeing Boss Yang's unconcerned look, Li Guowei didn't say much. He admired his chairman from the bottom of his heart.

If we want to talk about the people in Xiangjiang who pay the most attention to Yang Chen, there is no doubt that they are the subordinates and senior officials like Li Guowei.

According to the thinking of Li Guowei and others, how can they become good subordinates if they don't even understand and pay attention to their own bosses?

Since ancient times, figuring out one's true intentions has been a compulsory course for being a minister. Although Yang Chen is not the emperor, Li Guowei and the others depend on him for their livelihood.

Whether your job can be secure or not depends on your ability, but knowing how to be a good person is the key.

Without waiting for Li Guowei to think too much, Yang Chen continued: "Next, as for Manager Zheng, I hope Mr. Li can help. Some things require Mr. Li to take action."

Zheng Haiquan and others are planning their layout in the stock market. They have no problem dealing with the Jardine Group, but they have to deal with the shareholders of Jardine and acquire the shares of Jardine from those shareholders. Those who have too little seniority and insufficient connections will

I'm afraid it will be difficult to complete this task.

As the big boss, Yang Chen can't personally draw hatred. It's always the subordinates' duty to charge into the battle. He only needs to wave the flag and command from behind.

Hit him with a stick and give him a sweet date. Not everyone is tolerant and generous and doesn't care about him. The most indispensable thing in this world is stubborn people.

There will always be some people who are stubborn and will accept the soft rather than the tough. It is up to you to figure out how they ended up together.

To deal with that kind of person, Boss Yang was asked to smile and negotiate peacefully, but Yang Chen said that he couldn't do it and didn't have the ability.

However, Li Guowei is different.

As the general manager of Hang Seng Bank, given Hang Seng Bank’s status in Hong Kong, there are really too many people who have friendships with Li Guowei.

In addition, Li Guowei is usually smooth and sophisticated in dealing with things. He is the best choice to leave the negotiation to the other party.

A hint of helplessness flashed in Li Guowei's eyes, but there was no hesitation in his words, "Chairman, don't worry, I will have no problem leaving Xiangjiang to me."

Hang Seng Bank's previous sphere of influence was only in Xiangjiang. This time, Boss Yang has made up his mind to take action against the entire Jardine Matheson Group. In addition to being listed in Xiangjiang, Jardine Matheson Group is also listed on the London Stock Exchange in the United Kingdom.

In other words, if you want to deal with the Jardine Matheson Group, both sides must attack at the same time.

Otherwise, if you only attack one side, Yihe will only be damaged at most, but will not collapse directly.

Yang Chen naturally knows this. He has already made arrangements for the London side, and there is no need for Li Guowei to worry about it. The British are different from the Chinese. In the face of interests, favors and other things can only be ranked second.

As long as the pros and cons are spread out, the matter can be easily solved. Only the Xiangjiang side will be more troublesome. Jardine has been rooted in Xiangjiang for too long, and the interests involved involve all aspects. It will be difficult to bring down the Jardine Group without extraordinary means.
