In Hong Kong, we build a global business empire

At around seven o'clock in the morning, Lin Haoran's biological clock woke him up from his dream.

After talking to Cui Zilong on the phone last night, I haven’t received any calls since.

However, Lin Haoran also knew that the Philippines should be taking action.

After getting up, I did some exercises in the villa's gym, then had breakfast and read the newspaper.

Sure enough, today's newspaper news is very lively.

Especially the news on ATV in the evening made this matter even more popular.

The newspapers that Lin Haoran read included more than a dozen mainstream newspapers in Hong Kong, and the news content of most of the newspapers was influenced by ATV.

Some even publicly criticized Fortress Electric Company for bribing police officers and forging false reports.

Some news supports Fortress Electrical Appliances Co., Ltd.

The whole thing became confusing.

This video by Jardine Matheson has caused Fortress Electrical Appliances, which had originally completely walked out of public opinion, to be embroiled in the controversy again.

If it is not handled properly, the brand of Fortress Electrical Appliance Company will basically be ruined.

At around nine o'clock in the morning, Lin Haoran left the villa and went directly to the headquarters of Hong Kong Electric Group.

After arriving at the Hong Kong Electric Group, Chen Shoulin did not stay in the office but went to hold a meeting.

Lin Haoran was not in a hurry and called the general manager's office of Oriental Newspaper Company.

"Boss, I'm just about to report something to you." Cui Zilong said after answering the phone.

"Is it good news or bad news?" Lin Haoran asked.

"Of course it's good news." Cui Zilong said with a smile.

"How about this, I'm at the headquarters of Hong Kong Electric Group, you can come over." Lin Haoran thought for a while and said.

Fortress Electrical Company is a subsidiary of Hong Kong Electric Group, so it is most appropriate to call him over to help resolve this matter.

"Okay, boss, please wait for me. I'll be there after I sort out some information." Cui Zilong answered directly.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Haoran waited in Chen Shoulin's office for another ten minutes before Chen Shoulin returned to the office.

"Good morning, boss." Chen Shoulin felt very tired at this moment. What happened last night probably made him unable to sleep well.

"Well, how is Fengze Electrical Appliance Company doing now?" Lin Haoran asked.

"A store clerk said that many citizens went to the store to cause trouble, demanding a full refund and no longer daring to use our products. I hope President Cui can produce some useful evidence." Chen Shoulin said with a wry smile.

It is really uncomfortable to be falsely accused by the police who presented the report and they cannot provide any favorable evidence.

"Don't worry, President Cui just told me that there is good news." Lin Haoran said with a smile.

After more than ten minutes, Cui Zilong finally arrived at the Hong Kong Electric Group.

"Boss, Mr. Chen, sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time." Cui Zilong said breathlessly.

"Can you tell me about the situation in the Philippines?" Lin Haoran asked directly.

This is what they want to know most.

Chen Shoulin also set his sights on Cui Zilong.

“Last night, after the police officer named Tang Jie and his family arrived in Manila, our people met them at the airport in the name of Jardine Matheson and successfully took them away. After some beatings, we did find evidence in our favor.

In Tang Jie's hand, there was a check for one million Hong Kong dollars from the Huifeng Bank, and this check was stamped with the financial seal of Jardine Matheson. They planned to withdraw the money through the branch of Huifeng Bank in Manila after arriving in the Philippines, but they didn't expect to be found by us so soon.

This money is the price that Jardine Matheson paid to make Tang Jie leave Hong Kong. At the same time, we have recorded a video last night. This video is Tang Jie's personal account in Manila of how they were forced by Jardine Matheson to collude with Jardine Matheson to falsely accuse Fortress Electric Company. This video tape has been flown to Hong Kong on the earliest flight from Manila, which took off at 8 o'clock in the morning and is expected to arrive at Hong Kong Airport around 10:30." Cui Zilong reported again.

Lin Haoran nodded, things were moving in a good direction.

In addition, at your request, here are some negative information about Jardine Matheson that I have collected. For example, at the beginning of this year, Jardine Matheson set up a trap to frame the boss of Feng Ming Company in order to acquire Feng Ming Company at a low price. Currently, the boss of Feng Ming Company, Huang Zhang, is still in jail. The evidence we have found is enough to prove that this was entirely the work of Jardine Matheson.

This information is from Jardine Matheson in Central last May..."

As Cui Zilong spoke, he took out some evidence.

The evidence, including photos, videos, and signed documents, filled a bag.

This is just the evidence Cui Zilong collected in a short period of time. If given more time, he could definitely collect more evidence. It is conceivable how many evil deeds Jardine Matheson did.

Jardine Matheson has always adopted some unfair means in business competition, such as suppressing competitors through legal proceedings and political influence to gain unfair advantages.

These are the keys to his winning the competition.

But this time, since Mai Lihao promised not to interfere in their competition and since Jardine Matheson was so aggressive, don't blame Lin Haoran for taking ruthless measures.

"I want to report the evil deeds of Jardine Matheson through the media one by one. Can I cooperate with the Hong Kong Commercial Daily, the Overseas Chinese Daily, and the Sing Tao Daily?" Lin Haoran asked.

Yesterday, these newspapers joined forces with Oriental Daily to report the false accusations against Fortress Electrical Appliances.

However, this morning, Lin Haoran also read these newspapers, and the focus was on the video broadcast by ATV last night. But overall it was still good and not reported too exaggeratedly.

"Boss, I have already talked about this with their general manager, and I learned that they have received a warning from Jardine Matheson. Knowing that this matter is related to Jardine Matheson, they do not intend to get involved in it anymore." Cui Zilong said with a wry smile.

Lin Haoran nodded. Jardine Matheson called them personally to warn them, and these media outlets would definitely not dare to continue reporting.

There is no way. Jardine Matheson’s deterrent power in Hong Kong is too strong, and few people dare to offend Jardine Matheson.

Next, the three of them discussed in the office how to retaliate against Jardine Matheson.

At almost eleven o'clock in the morning, someone finally delivered a videotape.

Chen Shoulin found a meeting room with equipment for playing videotapes.

Soon, a video appeared on the TV screen.

"Hello everyone, I am Tang Jie, former Technical Superintendent of the Criminal Division of the Hong Kong Royal Police. I am now in the Philippines. I recorded a video for a while before. That video is actually fake. I am sorry for colluding with Jardine Matheson and being forced to make a false accusation against Fortress Electrical Appliances. However, I also have my difficulties. In Hong Kong, I was coerced by people from Jardine Matheson to either go along with them and get a check for one million Hong Kong dollars, or my whole family would be killed.

I am afraid of death, and I did not expect that presenting a technical report would bring me death. The authenticity of that technical appraisal report is beyond doubt, it is really true and could not be truer. The reason why I recorded that video before was because I was forced to do so. I am sorry..."

The former police officer named Tang Jie was crying and accusing Jardine Matheson of intimidation on TV.

"I will let TVB broadcast this videotape. Also, Mr. Cui, Oriental Daily will report a piece of dirty news about Jardine Matheson every day, and it will be solid evidence. I want Jardine Matheson to regret its decision!" Lin Haoran said to Cui Zilong seriously.

Lin Haoran was confident that TVB could broadcast the film because he knew that the Li family had never been very fond of British financial groups.

Since ATV chose to broadcast this video at 7pm last night, it would be the best counterattack if TVB broadcast it at the same time tonight.

"Okay, boss!" Cui Zilong responded.

"Mr. Chen, don't be in a hurry. After this video is played tonight, you should hold another press conference tomorrow to accuse Jardine Matheson Electric Appliances of unfair competition. This time, resolve the matter once and for all!" Lin Haoran turned to Chen Shoulin and said.

"Okay, this matter is finally over. I still prefer to compete fairly rather than using unfair means in business competition!" Chen Shoulin breathed a sigh of relief.

The business world is indeed cruel. When the Hong Kong Electric Group was a British-owned company, he had never experienced this kind of unfair competition. This may be the reason why the Hong Kong Electric Group has developed so smoothly in the past.

At noon, after Lin Haoran had lunch with them, he went directly to TVB.

At TVB, Lam Ho-yin met with Lee Hau-ho, the chairman of the board of directors of TVB.

The old man in front of us only has a dozen days left to live, but he himself naturally doesn't know this.

Lin Haoran didn't plan to tell this matter, just let everything take its course.

"I wonder what Mr. Lin is here for?" Li Xiaohe was slightly surprised by Lin Haoran's arrival.

"Mr. Li, I came here this time because I do have something to ask for your help." Lin Haoran said with a smile.

"Mr. Lin, please tell me what you have to say. I will definitely help if I can!" Li Xiaohe said readily.

"I have a tape here. After Mr. Li listens to it, he will know what happened." Lin Haoran took out a tape from his bag.

"Mr. Lin, let's go to the playback room over there." Li Xiaohe took the tape curiously without asking any further questions.

After a few minutes, the video finished playing.

"Mr. Lin is really good at this!" After watching the video, Li Xiaohe indeed knew the purpose of Lin Haoran's visit.

The incident involving Fortress Electrical Appliances Company caused a sensation throughout Hong Kong, and Li Xiaohe naturally kept paying attention to it.

Last night, TVB's ratings dropped significantly because of the video on ATV.

At this moment, even he, who had been in the business world for many years, was surprised by the evidence that Lin Haoran brought this time. (End of this chapter)
