After Lu Weidong returned to Xiangjiang, he immediately summoned Ah Er, Ah San, Ah Si, Ah Wu, Lu Zhilian, Expert Li, Dr. Gao and others for a meeting.

Jian Dazhuang made a report on the results of the Middle East trip, which was regarded as the opening remarks.

After that, Lu Weidong started to speak and talked about bank arrangements. After that, the topic fell on HSBC.

Lu Weidong looked at Ah Er and asked: "How many banks are staring at HSBC right now?"

Ah Er immediately said: "A group of foreign banks such as Jardine Matheson & Co., Swire & Co., Wheelock Bank, Standard Chartered Bank, Citibank, etc. are all active."

After hearing this, Lu Weidong's face became solemn. He nodded and said, "Pay attention immediately! I need their most detailed information."

Ah Er nodded and agreed.

Lu Weidong assigned the task and everyone dispersed.

After making a phone call, Lu Weidong invited Mr. Huo, the chartering king, and President Fang to discuss the acquisition of HSBC.

The three people rushed over immediately, and after exchanging pleasantries, the topic fell directly on HSBC.

Hearing that Lu Weidong was planning to acquire HSBC, Mr. Huo, the chartering king's eyes lit up. The two looked at each other and nodded repeatedly.

Especially the charter king, this year is his plan to go ashore. His original goal is Wharf.

However, HSBC suddenly went bankrupt. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, more meaningful than Wharf. The charter king was immediately interested and kept paying attention to the development of the matter.

"Weidong, to tell you the truth, I already have a plan! However, I am afraid that foreign banks will join forces. Now, with everyone joining in, I think we will definitely be able to win over HSBC." The chartering king was excited.

Tao.

"Ha! Mr. Bao has a far-sighted view! Now, I heard that you want to acquire Wharf?" Lu Weidong asked.

In the last life, the chartering king acquired Wharf, although it gained the face of the Chinese people.

However, it also greatly damaged his vitality, especially when the shipping industry declined for twenty years, causing the charter king to almost lose Maicheng.

"No! Now that we have the goal of HSBC! Wharf is no longer needed." The chartering king said with a smile.

Lu Weidong nodded and said to everyone: "I estimate that HSBC only sells assets in Xiangjiang, and the value should be about one billion Hong Kong dollars. Let's talk about it!"

After hearing this, Mr. Huo and President Fang all looked at the Charter King.

The charter king nodded slightly and said: "Although HSBC is currently worth one billion, I think that if a foreign bank is determined to acquire it, it must pay a premium, probably about 1.5 billion Hong Kong dollars! As for me! I can pay it now.

300 million Hong Kong dollars. If I have enough time, I can come up with 500 million Hong Kong dollars."

After hearing this, Mr. Huo smiled and said: "I will give you 100 million."

After hearing this, President Fang rubbed the back of his head and looked at Lu Weidong.

Lu Weidong smiled and said: "Guojia Bank, we must take the big part! Do you have 500 million in cash?"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Fang Xingzhang said.

"That's great! I'll take care of the rest!" Lu Weidong said to everyone.

The charter king heard this and said in surprise: "Weidong, do you have a lot of funds in Kowloon Bank?"

"Ha! Don't worry! The deposits of Kowloon Bank have surpassed any bank in Hong Kong! We are absolutely sure to buy HSBC." Lu Weidong said with a smile.

Everyone looked surprised after hearing this.

The chartering king thought for a while and suddenly smiled: "That's right! Your Kowloon Bank interest rate is already the highest in Hong Kong. I'm afraid this has gained a large group of depositors!"

Mr. Huo nodded and said with a smile: "That's for sure! Weidong, do you have any good investment projects?"

"Recently it's all about gold and oil! The only other options are real estate. However, HSBC fell here and the capital chain was broken. I think investing in real estate requires stability." Lu Weidong said with a smile.

Mr. Huo and the chartering king nodded after hearing this. Mr. Huo asked: "Weidong, do you have any plans in this regard? If so, why don't we set up a real estate development company? How about developing low-rent housing?"<

/p>

"Low-rent housing! This is a good thing! I'll join and invest 30 million." Lu Weidong smiled.

The charter king nodded, "I'll join too! How about investing 20 million?"

Mr. Huo said happily: "Okay! I will also invest 20 million."

President Fang immediately expressed his stance and said: "We will also invest 20 million."

Well! In the end, everyone invested 20 million, and Lu Weidong was still the largest shareholder...

Lu Weidong entrusted all the acquisition of HSBC to the chartering king, and Mr. Huo was responsible for it, leaving Chen Xiaobing and Jian Dazhuang to watch closely.

Lu Weidong and his party once again launched an operation to promote Hong Kong dollar-pegged oil.

When arriving at Sha's capital, the king met with Lu Weidong.

After greetings, Lu Weidong smiled and said: "Your Majesty the King, we are here this time to pay homage to His Majesty the King and to increase our friendship. Your Majesty the King, have you heard about the large passenger aircraft we produced?"

King Shah smiled slightly and nodded: "We have been informed! We have already visited Abu Dhabi."

"Great! Is His Majesty the King interested in buying it?" Lu Weidong asked with a smile.

King Shah shook his head slightly and said: "We have no urgent need for this kind of large passenger aircraft. In addition, we heard that Aramco and Boeing have already produced this kind of large passenger aircraft."

Lu Weidong's heart moved slightly, he nodded and smiled: "I understand!"......

In front of Mr. Sha, Lu Weidong found nothing, so he had no choice but to fly towards Mr. Sha's opponent, Yi Lang.

Yilang is also an important oil-producing country, ranking among the top ten in the world.

The current government of King Yilang has a very close relationship with Ame, but in 1979, everything changed completely.

Lu Weidong stayed in the capital of Yilang for a week and finally met members of the royal family.

This time, the specifications were very low and not even the king showed up.

After several days of arduous negotiations, Lu Weidong signed an economic cooperation agreement with the royal family on behalf of the Kowloon Bank. He ordered 10 million barrels of oil at a price of three cents more than the market price, and the transaction was in Yilang coins. To this end, the Kowloon Bank in Iraq

Lang Capital was established, and the agreement stipulated that products under Kowloon would enjoy the same treatment as local companies in Yilang.

In addition, Lu Weidong signed contracts with Yilang's local Aramco Oil Company and Aying Oil Company, each ordering 20 million barrels of oil.

After that, Lu Weidong went to the neighboring oil country Kuwait.

Signed a 10 million barrel oil contract with the other party, established a branch of Kowloon Bank, and entered the other party's market.

Kuwait is very interested in armed helicopters and has ordered ten of them, with a total value of HK$600 million, with a small gain.

Lu Weidong left Kuwait and entered the Pyramid State.

On this day, the world attracted attention.

The commander-in-chief of Aramco and the United States visited Forty-Nine City, and Aramco and the people of the motherland announced that relations between the two countries have returned to normal.

For a time, the whole world was shocked.

Everyone in the Pyramid Kingdom welcomed Lu Weidong's arrival, with forced smiles on their faces.

However, Lu Weidong knew that this would be a short period of time.

Just a year later, the relationship between the Pyramid State and Afghanistan completely cooled down and moved closer to Amerika. Subsequently, the Fourth Middle East War broke out.

During this war, oil prices soared, changing the entire global layout of industrialized countries.

"Boss Lu! When we first traded, we suffered a bit! Boss Lu, we can't explain it to the people of the Pyramid Country." said the commander of the Pyramid Country, with a depressed look on his face.

Hearing that Colonel Ka had ordered an official version of the Fierce Dragon fighter jet for 300 million Hong Kong dollars, the news spread to the Pyramid Kingdom, much to the annoyance of the councilors.

In everyone's opinion, they suffered a big loss in the original transaction.

In this regard, the arrival of Lu Weidong and his party was not welcomed by everyone.

After hearing this, Lu Weidong smiled and said: "Commander, the situation at that time, we in the north were at a critical moment, and we were a little too overwhelmed to take care of ourselves! Being able to bear the pain and sell the weapons we urgently need is already commendable. This is all because of the interests of our two countries.

On top of many years of friendship.”

"As for the current situation, Commander, I think you should understand! We have completely suppressed the Asu side, making them fearful and afraid to take a step forward."

"Therefore, the situation has changed! We naturally have to make adjustments. Commander, I hope you can understand this."

"When I came here this time, I learned that you wanted to purchase our armed helicopters. I came here to tell the Commander-in-Chief that the higher-ups have agreed."

"I wonder how many battles are needed, Your Majesty the Commander-in-Chief?"

After Lu Weidong finished speaking, he looked at the commander of the Pyramid Kingdom with a smile.

After hearing this, the commander's eyes lit up and he immediately asked: "How much is the price?"

"Sixty million Hong Kong dollars!" Lu Weidong smiled.

The commander-in-chief frowned and said hesitantly: "Hong Kong dollars?"

"Yes! You can trade in Hong Kong dollars!" Lu Weidong smiled.

The commander-in-chief thought about it, nodded and said, "This is a good thing! Unfortunately, we don't have any extra Hong Kong dollars."

"This! We can help! I will set up a bank branch in your country to serve our transactions." Lu Weidong smiled.

"Oh? You want to enter our financial industry?" The commander frowned.

Lu Weidong smiled and explained: "It's just a service! Of course, I hope that the products of our Kowloon Company will enter your country's market."

"Oh? Is your market open?" the commander frowned.
