Chapter 388: Done within three days!
"What are you talking about?"
"Mother Gan Lin, if you have the guts, try saying that to Lin Bei again!"
Hou Liqun exploded directly, his tone filled with anger!
As the saying goes, don't hit people in the face, and don't expose people's weaknesses when scolding them.
Everyone knows that for a deputy, the most taboo thing is the word "deputy", but Yang Dengkui exposed his shortcomings in public, which directly made Hou Liqun lose popularity.
"What? A deputy is a deputy. Why don't you let people tell the truth?"
"Lin Bei said it, how dare you do anything to Lin Bei, you big pig!"
Yang Dengkui also became furious after being scolded, and since he saw that the discussion was about to break down, he just turned hostile!
If he hadn't been held back by his younger brothers, he would have rolled up his sleeves and fought Hou Liqun in a one-on-one duel!
Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhou Chaoxian on the side was secretly delighted. Ever since he came into contact with Hou Liqun, he had suffered a lot from the other party and had spent a lot of money on him. If it were not for the ultimate goal, he would have turned against him long ago.
Now that Yang Dengkui has done this, it can be considered as a way to vent his anger.
However, Zhou Chaoxian was also very surprised. He didn't understand where Yang Dengkui's confidence came from. After all, he still had to make a living in Taiwan in the future. If he offended Hou Liqun and the faction behind him, his life would probably be difficult.
Lin Zehao’s base is in Hong Kong Island. The worst that can happen to him is that he can just walk away. But what should Yang Dengkui do?
Zhou Chaoxian set his gaze on Lin Zehao, who remained calm, and was completely puzzled.
"Okay, Minister Hou, save your energy. You haven't answered my question yet."
"Were you threatening me just now?"
Lin Zehao narrowed his eyes and asked the same question again.
Hou Liqun took off his glasses and threw them aside. He used his left hand to tidy up his messy hair and said, "I'm just threatening you. What do you think?"
"If you have the guts, go ahead and sue me and see what the judge will say!"
As I said, Hou Liqun just wanted to cheat Lin Zehao out of a large sum of money. After all, he was rich and a foreigner.
Moreover, the identities of both parties are like those of a mouse and a cat, with a natural chain of restraint. If he misses this opportunity, then most of his life would have been lived in vain.
He is an official, and Lin Zehao is a half-black and half-white bandit!
Even if the other party completely lands, they are civilians!
Since ancient times, the people have always been afraid of the officials. Have you ever heard of officials being afraid of the people?
They have worked so hard for the country and the people for so long, and now their pockets are empty. It’s not too much to ask the people for some money to spend, right?
If Lin Zehao didn't have someone with a gun, he would have found an excuse to rob him!
"Minister Hou is indeed a quick-witted person. I hope that next time we meet, you will still be so full of energy and confident."
After Lin Zehao left a meaningful sentence, he took a few people away.
Seeing this, Zhou Chaoxian, who was standing by, also prepared to say goodbye and leave. After all, according to Hou Liqun's character, if he continued to stay here at this critical juncture, he would definitely be angered.
"Wait, you're leaving too?"
Hou Liqun's tone was unfriendly, but Zhou Chaoxian still said with a stiff upper lip: "Minister Hou, I'm sorry, there are some urgent matters waiting for me to deal with at the company..."
Hearing this, Hou Liqun almost laughed out of anger. He sat down on a chair, picked up the cigarettes on the table, took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth and lit it, and cursed: "Is your head growing on your butt? You come up with such a lame excuse."
"If you want to go, go ahead. I won't stop you."
After hearing this, Zhou Chaoxian started walking away without any hesitation at all.
"However, forget about the nomination for the East District Legislative Yuan this term. Let's switch to Zong Shu."
In the election of legislators in Formosa, there are non-district "legislators", regional "legislators" and "indigenous legislators".
Among them, there are 73 seats of "regional legislators", 34 seats of "non-regional legislators", and 6 seats of "indigenous legislators".
Among them, the seat that Zhou Chaoxian wants is the regional legislator, while Lin Zehao doesn't care. Whether it is regional or non-regional, it is acceptable to him.
Hearing this, Zhou Chaoxian could only stop and return to his seat, waiting for Hou Liqun's lecture with a very gloomy face.
Now he is at the mercy of others and has to endure the request.
Thinking of this, Zhou Chaoxian couldn't help but envy Lin Zehao's unrestrained and confident attitude, and he even dared to confront Hou Liqun.
As a gangster, he is not as free and easy and strong as the other.
Of course, his Songlin Gang is not at the same level as Weilonghao's Heshenghe.
To be precise, looking across the entire island, how many people can compare to Wei Longhao?
"You know the truth."
"I'm actually optimistic about your nomination for the East District Legislative Yuan, but there are many things that I can't influence alone, don't you understand?"
Hou Liqun's words were rather obscure, but Zhou Chaoxian understood the deep meaning behind them. "Minister Hou, just tell me the number, and I will do my best."
His influence in Taiwan is not that big, and there is definitely a big gap compared to the Bamboo Union Gang and the Four Seas Gang. However, he is the first person in Taiwan to do the pinball machine business. In addition, he has always had a good relationship with senior government officials, and he can often get some projects. He earns the difference through various subcontracts, and can make a lot of money without doing any work.
In this way, Zhou Chaoxian's economic strength is still very strong.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have thought of clearing his name by running for a seat in the Legislative Yuan.
"Since you have been serving me so well during this period, I will give you a flat price of fifty million."
"Look, you heard me too. I just asked Lin Zehao for 60 million. Don't accuse me of not taking care of my own people."
Hou Liqun threw the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground, then picked up the grapes on the table and started eating them.
I saw him pick up a bunch of grapes high up, open his mouth wide, and eat three or four grapes in one bite. As he chewed, the juice overflowed.
However, at this moment Zhou Chaoxian had no intention of observing Hou Liqun's eating habits. He was constantly calculating the pros and cons in his mind.
To be honest, 50 million is definitely not a small sum of money these days. Although he can indeed come up with it, it is quite difficult.
If you pay the money but fail to get the job done, it will be a huge blow to your life.
However, having come this far, Zhou Chaoxian would be unwilling to give up if he didn't give it a try.
After a brief thought, he finally made up his mind and said, "I will deliver the money to the minister within three days."
Hou Liqun smiled, stood up, patted Zhou Chaoxian on the shoulder, and said, "The boss will decide the nomination in five days. Don't worry, I will definitely stand by your side."
After taking this reassurance, Zhou Chaoxian felt much relieved of his worries.
At the same time, Lin Zehao left the club and got into the car. He picked up his mobile phone and dialed a number. "I'm Lin Zehao."
Feiji and Lin Huaile on the other end of the phone quickly straightened up and said, "Brother Hao, if you have any instructions, just tell me."
For this trip to Taiwan, in addition to Yang Chengrong and Li Wenbin who were on the show, Fei Ji and Lin Huaile were also transferred over and have been lurking in the dark.
After all, Lin Zehao's target is too big, and countless people are eyeing him. It would be better to split the troops into two groups, repairing the plank road openly while secretly attacking Chencang.
"From now on, you and A Le will be responsible for keeping an eye on Hou Liqun and Shanyuan Villa respectively."
"As for the specific information, someone will fax it to you in a while."
"Remember, without exposing yourself, try to understand the other party's movements as detailed as possible."
"If there is any situation, report to me within 24 hours."
Feiji and Lin Huaile looked at each other and said in unison: "Don't worry, Brother Hao, I will not let you down!"
This time when they came to Taiwan, they had to go through a lot of internal competition before they successfully won these two jobs.
Now that Hutchison is getting bigger and bigger, with more and more talents, the competition is naturally becoming more and more fierce. There are too many people who want to stand out, and everyone is wiping their eyes and silently waiting for the opportunity.
After all, ever since Lin Zehao sued the Royal Hong Kong Police Force and the government, the two sides have been going back and forth and making small moves constantly.
Although he seized the opportunity not long ago and used a stroke of genius to get rid of Jiang Tiansheng and merge with Hongxing.
However, such a sudden and major move would mean that for a long period of time, both official and underworld forces would be extremely vigilant, guarding against any slightest disturbance.
Under such circumstances, the wisest choice for Hutchison is to quietly digest the gains while taking a defensive stance and confronting these forces.
In this way, those people in the society who want to stand out naturally have no place to use their talents.
How can you achieve anything if you have nothing to do?
This time, our leader went to Taiwan. Anyone with a bit of common sense would know that he was definitely not going on vacation. As long as you can go with him, you might have a chance to make a contribution.
In this case, you can imagine how fierce the competition is.
Fortunately, Feiji and Lin Huaile both have a good boss. At the critical moment, it was Chen Guoqiang and Yang Chengrong who conveyed the message to Lin Zehao, allowing their subordinates to stand out in the fierce competition.
From this we can see that no matter what you do, it is very important to be with the right people.
After hanging up the phone, Feiji and Lin Huaile immediately divided the work, arranged the manpower, and started to take action.
The plane was responsible for monitoring Hou Liqun's movements, while Lin Huaile was responsible for investigating Shanyuan Villa.
Just as Lin Zehao put down his mobile phone, there was another noise.
After pressing the answer button, Li Wenbin's voice rang out.
"Brother Hao, all the formalities have been completed, and all the official relationships have been arranged. You can start at any time."
Li Wenbin was a lawyer by profession and had always been the one controlling the purse strings of the Hutchison Group, so Lin Zehao naturally trusted him very much.
This trust is hard-earned. It is the result of experiencing life and death together and walking along the same path.
Of course, judging from Li Wenbin's performance, he did not let Lin Zehao down.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Abin."
"If I launch an attack here, I will notify you in advance."
"Also, a new group of personnel arrived last night. I will transfer another 200 people to you. Please be sure to pay attention to your own safety."
Lin Zehao gave a few instructions, and Li Wenbin agreed to them one by one, writing them all down in his notebook, not daring to leave out anything.
"It's not hard, Brother Hao. You may not know that the atmosphere here in Formosa is much more open than that in Hong Kong Island."
"When we were in Hong Kong Island, except for those foreigners, we had to find an excuse and be very cautious when giving gifts or checks. But here, there is no such concern at all. If you want to do something, you just say it. There is no need to test the waters. They will directly mark the price."
"This saves a lot of effort."
Hearing Li Wenbin's sigh, Lin Zehao was not surprised at all. Taiwan does have a fine tradition in this regard.
Obviously, this system is indeed too friendly to people like them.
"You must be more careful. These people from Taiwan might treat us like fish in the water."
As a younger brother who had been with Lin Zehao all the way, Li Wenbin certainly understood the deep meaning behind his words and asked in a deep voice, "Brother Hao, did the talks with Hou Liqun break down?"
Lin Zehao did not hide it and said, "He dared to ask for 60 million from me. I didn't send him away on the spot to serve the party and the country. I have a good temper."
Hearing this, Li Wenbin was also a little surprised. As the financial director of Hutchison, although he did not know exactly how much his boss was worth, he could still estimate a rough estimate based on the accounts he handled every day.
To be honest, 60 million is indeed a large sum of money in this era, but for the boss, it is really nothing.
"This amount of money is really nothing to me, but he thinks I'm easy to bully and treats me like a weakling. If you dare to ask for double the amount from me, don't blame me for flipping the table."
"Don't worry about this matter, everything is under my control."
Lin Zehao naturally knew something about Hou Liqun. Since this approach didn't work out for him, he decided to change direction and talk to the person behind him.
In this way, not only will there be no middlemen making a profit from the price difference, but you may even get unexpected gains.
"Understood, Brother Hao."
Li Wenbin has always been confident in his boss. This is not blind worship, but a conclusion based on past examples.
Over the years, everything Lin Zehao said and did, one by one, proved that he had a sharp vision and was an example of thinking fifteen steps ahead.
The fact that Hutchison has reached its current heights under his leadership is proof of this!
After the call was hung up, Yang Chengrong, who had been waiting, also said, "Brother Hao, my brothers have found the whereabouts of the Four Seas Gang's Baotouqiang. What do you think?"
Lin Zehao stroked his beard and said, "Bring the man here and interrogate him."
"Understood, Brother Hao." Yang Chengrong nodded heavily and passed the order on.
Following a big boss like Brother Hao, they never need to ask why, they just need to execute without hesitation.
