HK Composite: Starting from Shenghe Leading

Chapter 565 The storm is coming
"Because he has never been a simple businessman!"

"There are some things that even if I don't tell you, you will definitely find out when you return to London in the future."

"Do you know who is mainly responsible for the British Empire's arms sales in Africa?"

This sentence was like a bolt from the blue, shocking Wei Yixin to his core!
Understood!
Everything is clear!
It turned out that Wei Yixin had been subconsciously overlooking a problem. Lin Zehao has never been a simple businessman, let alone a so-called lucky scoundrel!

Before we knew it, Lin Zehao had already expanded internationally, involved in multiple industries, and became an international tycoon!
However, Wei Yixin chose to ignore this point because of his preconceived prejudice.

Arms industry.

Lin Zehao is also one of the best!
And this industry is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Not to mention having a certain influence in the world, at least you need to have the ability to dominate in mainstream countries!

Obviously, Lin Zehao has this ability!

This is also the fundamental reason why he was able to obtain this Patek Philippe watch from the British royal family and demote Wei Yixin, the Governor of Hong Kong, into the abyss without anyone noticing!

Even the United States, one of the two poles of the world, needs an arms spokesperson, let alone the British Empire which has been on a downward spiral since World War II?
When smart people communicate with each other, many things don't need to be said too bluntly or too clearly.

From those simple words, Wei Yixin already understood the importance of Lin Zehao!

To put it bluntly, the Governor of Hong Kong only has influence in his small area of ​​Hong Kong.

Hutchison Whampoa's Lin Zehao's influence is not limited to Hong Kong, but spread all over the world!

Unfortunately, by the time Wei Yixin realized this fact, it was too late.

"Really... there is no way to save it..."

In the end, all the reluctance, anger, regret, fear, unwillingness and other emotions in Wei Yixin's heart finally converged into one sentence.

"There's no way. At least I have no way."

"You have to pay the price for every choice you make. This is not your first day in politics, so I don't need to emphasize this point, right?"

"Okay, if there's anything, let's meet in London and talk about it. That's it."

Listening to the dead tone in the microphone, Wei Yixin's eyes were full of confusion.

He had thought of countless endings, but this was the only one he had never imagined.

Everyone noticed that Wei Yixin was acting strangely, and before his subordinates could come up to him to ask him questions, he walked towards the door and left without looking back.

It was a lonely back, full of loneliness.

"This……"

When the judge saw this scene, he immediately understood.

It seems that the lawsuit against Lin Zehao is about to end before it even begins.

Loud thunder but little rain, great start but shrivelled end, that's all.

Not only was he slapped in the face by Lin Zehao, but his position was also in jeopardy.

The Governor of Hong Kong now seems like nothing more than a joke.

"This judge declares that due to insufficient evidence, this case is adjourned indefinitely."

The judge with a ramen-like haircut brought down the hammer quickly, looking completely impatient.

After walking down the stairs, he apologized to Lin Zehao without wasting a second.

"Brother Hao, I don't want to intervene in this matter, but Wei Yixin is the Governor of Hong Kong, and there are some things I can't resist..."

"Don't worry, I will find a way to dissolve this case. I hope you can give me a chance to reform..."

The judge has a very high status in Hong Kong, but he cannot afford to offend either Wei Yixin or Lin Zehao.

This is also the reason why he has been engaging in verbal battles with Hutchison’s legal team just now.

He must not disobey Wei Yixin's request, nor offend Lin Zehao to death.

Swinging is sometimes just a survival skill.

Lin Zehao just smiled at the judge's actions and did not express his attitude.

For this kind of fence-sitter, it is best to leave it alone for a while and let it live in fear all day long.

In the end, this trial, which attracted the attention of the entire Hong Kong Island and even the whole world, ended in such an anticlimactic way.

After learning that it was the Governor of Hong Kong who took the initiative to admit his mistake and dropped the case, all media outlets celebrated as if it were Chinese New Year, and there were even citizens who spontaneously fired firecrackers to celebrate every day.

The white governor was defeated by Hong Kong local Lin Zehao, which is definitely news that everyone likes to hear.

The local hero defeating the foreign invaders is absolutely perfect material.

Amidst the criticism, Wei Yixin did not make any response, but simply stepped down from the position of governor in disgrace.

As for the successor, it has not been announced yet, and the previous second-in-command will take over temporarily.

This move has made it clear that even if there is no suitable candidate, Wei Yixin must step down!
In response, he said nothing and just packed his luggage silently.

When he left, there wasn't even a single friend or subordinate to see him off.

At the moment before boarding the plane, Wei Yixin even thought about calling Lin Zehao to beg for mercy.

But in the end, he didn't do it.

It was not because he wanted to save face, but because reason overcame fear.

He knew that on such a matter of principle, even if he knelt down and begged for mercy, Lin Zehao would remain unmoved.

Rather than losing the last bit of dignity and dying, it is better to stand and face it calmly. At least you can leave a good reputation.

With this thought in mind, Wei Yixin boarded a plane to London.

Perhaps, one day in the future, he will go to jail for taking the blame.

The days of waiting for death are always difficult.

Wei Yixin paid the price, and Xinji also could not escape this disaster.

All the gang members from the New Territories in the society chose to leave Sun Kee, some chose to transfer to Hutchison Whampoa, and a small number either immigrated abroad or started buying properties everywhere and lived a leisurely life as landlords.

After all, 10 million per Dingquan is enough for these people to enjoy life.

As all the land in the hands of the New Territories aborigines was returned to Lin Zehao, he did not choose to develop the land on a large scale as the outside world had speculated, but just kept everything as usual, as if nothing had happened. The real estate market, which had been somewhat volatile, also became quiet as a result.

Not only was Hong Kong pacified, but the island's cabinet was also finally dealt with. It chose to sell the land ownership of ten important cities on the island in exchange for Lin Zehao's investment to save the world.

As soon as the contract was signed, the island country called impatiently, urging Lin Zehao to implement the investment.

In response, Lin Zehao had no intention of going back on his word and immediately held a press conference, announcing an investment of 100 billion US dollars in the island country in order to save the island country's economy, which was on the verge of collapse.

Of course, this slogan is just a slogan. Lin Zehao will not be stupid enough to invest all his liquid funds in the daily life market.

In fact, the initial investment was only 30 billion US dollars, and it was not real cash, but a number converted and added together from various materials, manpower, etc.

However, there are not many people who know the inside story of this kind of thing, and it will not be publicized. Ordinary people are still stimulated by the news, and even the stock market shows signs of recovery.

Hutchison Group then announced that it would invest in ten factories on the island nation, initially recruiting a total of 53,000 workers.

This news once again sparked public opinion on the island country!
After all, under the premise of the Great Depression, the unemployment rate reached its historical highest point, and many unemployed people began to be idle and take revenge on society.

In a sense, this is a vicious circle!

To break the impasse, we must start by creating jobs.

Obviously, Lin Zehao took the right first step.

It is no exaggeration to say that once this news spread, many people regarded Lin Zehao as a savior and publicly thanked him for everything he had done to save the island country!
For a time, Lin Zehao's status in the island country continued to rise, and his support rate even exceeded that of the current prime minister!

If he is interested in going into politics, after some operations, he will most likely become the head of a country.

Unfortunately, Lin Zehao is different from the raccoon. He has no interest in politics at all.

Under such circumstances, Lin Zehao stayed in Hong Kong for a while, accompanied the women, and slept with them every night. After enjoying this rare period of life, he once again led his men to Ermao.

There is no way. Although Lin Zehao is not a workaholic, facing the polar bear's approaching disintegration point, he has to go there in person to take charge.

…………

Ermao, Kyiv.

Kiev (Russian: Киев, English: Kyiv), anciently translated as "Qiva" and also translated as "Jif".

This city, which served as the capital of Ermao after the disintegration of the polar bear, is located in the north-central part of the country.

It is located on both sides of the middle reaches of the Dnieper River, near the confluence of its largest tributaries, the Pripyat River and the Desna River.

Kiev has a long history. It was built in the late 6th century and early 7th century AD. It is not only the economic center of Russia, but also a hub for railway, water, aviation and automobile transportation.

Even in the Polar Bear Alliance, one of the two poles of the world, Kiev is an industrially developed city. Many of its backbone enterprises in the machinery manufacturing, chemical, aviation and shipbuilding industries are located in this city.

At the same time, light industry, textile and printing industries are also quite developed.

As we all know, war is a competition of industrial levels. Whoever has the stronger industrial manufacturing capabilities will win the final victory.

This shows Kyiv's position in the Polar Bear Alliance.

Not only is its function important, its superior geographical location is also a point that cannot be ignored.

Kiev is located at the intersection of three important trade routes. One is the "Varyag to Greek Road" through the Dnieper River, connecting the Baltic Sea area with the Black Sea by water.

Another major land trade route ran from east to west: starting from the Black Sea, passing through Kiev, Krakow, and Prague, connecting the Arab world with Western Europe.

The third trade route started from the Caspian Sea, passed through Kiev and reached the Baltic Sea, connecting the Arab world with Northern Europe.

In 822, the Russians established their capital in Kiev and established Kievan Rus.

In 988, the entire city converted to Eastern Orthodoxy. In the following two centuries, it gradually prospered through the Eurasian trade and was known as the "Imperial City" on the Dnieper River.

In short, whether from the perspective of historical heritage, modern development, or war confrontation, Kiev is a well-deserved battleground!
Even though the entire Polar Bear Alliance has begun to crumble, Moscow is still fighting for Kiev.

In the eyes of many onlookers, the Polar Bear Alliance may still be one of the two poles of the world, a great and indestructible proletarian alliance.

But for the people who are in it, they have actually sensed a hint of unusual message.

However, most people are not sensitive to this. While working hard to make a living every day, they do not have the mood or energy to pay attention to such subtle changes.

As for those who have high enough status and great enough power, they have already felt that under the seemingly calm sky, there seems to be a brewing storm that is enough to destroy everything!
Kyiv, Golden Gate.

The Golden Gate was built in the 11th century and is one of the few well-preserved buildings from the era of Grand Prince Yaroslav.

In ancient times, this was the main gate of the city of Kiev. The door panels and the church domes on the gatehouse were decorated with gilded copper foil, which looked like gold from a distance, hence the name "Golden Gate".

The gate is twelve meters high and six point four meters wide. It was the most important city gate of Kiev at that time and was also used for defense.

Since 1983, the Kinmen ruins have been renovated and turned into a museum open to tourists. Many cultural relics from the ancient Kiev period are displayed in the museum.

"When was this city gate?"

"No wonder it was conquered by Genghis Khan's grandson."

Lin Zehao looked at the Golden Gate in front of him and kept shaking his head, looking disappointed.

In 1240, a Mongol expeditionary force led by Genghis Khan's grandson Batu captured Kiev and brought the city into its rule.

"Lin, you always look at things from such a unique perspective."

"I think if Batu heard your comments, he would definitely feel very hurt..."

Next to Lin Zehao, there was a Pole with gray hair and a funny and wealthy appearance. Oh no, now he should be called a member of the Polar Bear Alliance.

Judging from his position and attitude, this person should have a very high status.

In fact, it is indeed not low.

This man's name is Leonid Makarovich Kravchuk. He was elected chairman of the Supreme Union of Polar Bears five months ago and became a member of the Federal Committee of Polar Bears.

Moreover, at the latest internal meeting, he was successfully inaugurated as a member of the center committee.

Although they sound like just some simple titles, they don't seem to have any clear powers.

But only those who truly understand the polar bear system know how valuable these simple titles are.

Simply put, Kravchuk is currently the top leader of Ermao.

In the huge Polar Bear Alliance, Ermao is the second largest member country after Damao.

There is no need to elaborate on the value of this title, right?
Kravchuk was wearing a long light yellow coat with high-end fur at the collar and an ordinary-looking standard felt hat on his head.
