Reverse Rebirth 1990

Chapter 358 369 [Department of a famous family]

There are three major banks in Hong Kong, namely Citibank, HSBC, and Standard Chartered.

Among them, Standard Chartered Bank originated from London, and its influence in Hong Kong can be regarded as deeply rooted. Therefore, many wealthy Hong Kong families basically have contacts with Standard Chartered Bank.

As the Fu family who migrated from Macau to Hong Kong to develop hotel business, they established a good cooperative relationship with Standard Chartered Bank of Hong Kong during the time of Fu Yunheng's father, Fu Laorong.

It can be said that the rise of the Fu family is inseparable from the support of Standard Chartered Bank for their family.

In fact, there is a saying in Hong Kong, "Behind every successful wealthy family, there will be a big bank supporting them."

For example, in addition to the support of the Fu family by Standard Chartered Bank, the reason why the Li family of Hong Kong Li Chaoren was able to rise in the 60s was because of the support of Hong Kong HSBC Bank.

Conversely, the top ten giants in Hong Kong all have the support of banks within their own sphere of influence.These banks also reap huge profits from their backers.It is said that for the hundreds of hotels under the Fu family business, basically all finances are arranged by Standard Chartered Bank. Workers' wages, corporate loans, corporate remittances, corporate account transfers, etc. are all completed by Standard Chartered Bank.

The "perfect business partnership" established between Fu Laorong and Standard Chartered Bank continued to be perfectly inherited under his son Fu Yunheng.

Among them, the most representative relationship between the two is the "friend" relationship between Mr. Rolando, President of Standard Chartered Bank, and Fu Yunheng for many years.

Rolando is 53 years old and comes from London, England. He is an authentic British gentleman. He is also a well-known family. During the colonial period of the British Empire, his ancestors even served as the governor of India and owned ten thousand hectares of farmland.With the outbreak of the Great Revolution in India, the Indian colony was completely disintegrated, and a lot of wealth was robbed by the Indians. His ancestors returned to England from India with a small amount of money and became a declining nobleman at that time.

Rolando was born in such a family. He has an arrogant personality and disdains ordinary people.But one thing I have to admit is that Rolando's work in the bank is very good, because he is not the kind of person who sticks to the old rules, he is bold enough, and his investment is stable enough. Often, he can win the bid for projects that many people are not optimistic about. , to obtain huge benefits for the bank.

Not long ago, Rolando received a call from Fu Yunheng at work.

Fu Yunheng first recalled the friendship between the two over the years on the phone, and then he got to the point, telling Rolando that he has a nephew who is going to start a business, but unfortunately he is a little nervous and wants to borrow some money from Standard Chartered Bank.

When Rolando heard these words, he understood what they meant.

According to the usual practice, if Fu Yunheng's various mortgage procedures are complete and the audits are up to standard, there is no need to call Rolando at all. In addition to Standard Chartered Bank, many big banks are willing to lend to Fu's family.Unless the Fu family is in some trouble and doesn't want to go through the normal procedures, at this time Fu Yunheng will call Rolando himself and ask him to help "it's convenient".Of course, as long as Rolando feels that he can trust Fu Yunheng and loan out after calculation, he will use his own privilege to lend the money behind the back of the bank and without following procedures.Then, when Fu Yunheng repays the loan, he, Rolando, will be able to collect certain benefits.

Now, when Fu Yunheng called, Rolando knew that there was an opportunity to make money by accepting private work—of course, before that, he still had to meet with Fu Yunheng to weigh the risks of this loan.

It is Rolando's business principle and philosophy of life that the investment is directly proportional to the return.

So, after the phone call, Rolando told Fu Yunheng that he could spare a little time to meet his nephew who needed a loan. As for the specific content, we will wait until the meeting.

Both Fu Yunheng and Rolando are old players, and they both understand that loans and lending are like dating between men and women, and only after the concubine is in love can the winding roads be opened and the clouds turned upside down.

They don't talk much to each other.

Here, Fu Yunheng called Song Zhichao directly and told Song Zhichao that I have already contacted the people at Standard Chartered Bank for you. When we meet, whether you can succeed or not is up to you.

This is exactly, the master leads the door, and the practice is in the individual.

If you want to have a good relationship with the bank, you have to get on the horse yourself and show your sincerity.

Wanchai, Hong Kong, Jinjue Goose Wing Shop——
In Hong Kong, there are many unique delicacies, the most famous of which are wife cakes, roast goose legs, shrimp dumplings, barbecued pork buns and braised goose wings.

The Jinjue Goose Wing shop is not very big.

To be precise, this is just a small shop, but it is very famous in Hong Kong. Many big people who like food like to visit here and taste the unique food here-braised goose wings.

It is said that the goose wings marinated in Jinjue do not agree with ordinary merchants, because this shop has "brine" prepared by the secret recipe of the ancestors, and this kind of brine was handed down from the Forbidden City during the Qing Dynasty.It is said that even Lafayette Cixi liked this kind of goose wings very much. It melts in the mouth, and the bones are crispy and the meat is fragrant.

As an English gentleman, Rolando is an authentic British style in every aspect, but he is more Hong Kong than many Hong Kong people when it comes to this delicacy.

To be precise, Rolando is very picky about imported food, and he can be seen in the whole of Hong Kong, and the food restaurants he patronize can be counted on ten fingers.And this Jinjue Goose Wing shop is one of them.

At this time, it was approaching noon.

According to his own habit, Rolando chose the dining table on the second floor of the Goose Wing shop near the east window.

Then he, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, put his briefcase aside and asked the store to help him make a good chrysanthemum tea——chrysanthemum tea has a delicate fragrance and light taste, which can help the mouth to get rid of the peculiar smell of delicious food. Rolando is the favorite Intended to have a drink before eating.

Tasting chrysanthemum tea, Rolando, who was dressed in a long gray striped suit, took out a newspaper, folded it neatly, and read it carefully.

Rolando raised his head until the sound of footsteps sounded beside his ear, mixed with the beeping of crutches, because the beeping sound was very familiar, and there was no one else except Fu Yunheng.

Sure enough, as soon as Rolando looked up, he saw Fu Yunheng coming up the stairs slowly on crutches, and behind Fu Yunheng, a young man in a white close-fitting suit also walked up the stairs step by step.Needless to say, the other party should be the nephew that Fu Yunheng mentioned.

When Rolando saw the young man, his green eyes narrowed. For him, the most important thing in seeing a person is the first impression.

Because the first impression of a person is the most unfaithful, temperament, appearance, behavior, will be shown to you without any concealment.After getting to know each other, or after the other party knows your identity, they will deliberately cover up some things. Rolando has a deep understanding of this.

At this time, Song Zhichao's first impression of Rolando was only four words: calm and introverted.
