Hong Kong: Black Gold Tycoons

When Chen Fei said he was going to start a company, he really meant it.

After finishing their meal, he took Lok Wai-ching and Ya-tzu to HSBC Bank to transfer the five million he had deposited that morning into a new account.

He has already split the 15 million from last night in two.

I'll invest the ten million in the stock market.

He originally intended to keep the money for himself.

However, since a top student happened to be there to help, we couldn't let him go.

Setting up a company is actually not complicated.

The most important thing is to have business.

He then gave the account and password to Ya Zi, saying, "This is the company's start-up capital. Work hard, and you'll definitely have a place in one of Hong Kong's top companies in the future."

Yazi took the things he handed her, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

Brother, we've only just met, do you really need to be so generous?

He dared to give me five million without doing any investigation?

Besides, we haven't even discussed the salary yet.

Yue Huizhen was also somewhat surprised. What was going on?

In just the time it takes to have a meal, he actually handed over five million Hong Kong dollars.

"Um..." Yako was about to speak.

Chen Fei added, "This company is very important to me, so I hope you can get it up and running as soon as possible."

"Uh... I'll do it as soon as possible." Yako tried her best to get into character. "Does the boss have any other requirements?"

"Yes, first set up three offshore companies, and then register the Black Gold Group in the names of these three companies," Chen Fei said. "Go and find a lawyer first. If you've just returned to Hong Kong, you can ask Ah Zhen; she knows some lawyers."

Lok Wai-ching exclaimed in surprise, "You've only known each other for half an hour, and you're already giving her five million? Aren't you afraid she'll run away?"

"It's just five million, what's there to be afraid of?" Chen Fei said arrogantly.

Lok Wai-ching gave a thumbs up: "Okay, BOSS, you win. I have to go take care of things at the magazine. The lawyer called, and we need to go sign some papers in a bit."

"Well, I'll go find a lawyer too," Yako said. "Since this is a task assigned by the boss, I'll definitely do it perfectly and won't let you down."

In any case, she has at least temporarily come into contact with the people around Ah Zhen.

So the two went their separate ways.

By the afternoon, the magazine on Mrs. Lin's side had already finished.

We got all the necessary documents: publication number, distribution channels, and office equipment.

Chen Fei bought sample magazines of "Yes!" and "Black Gold" from the mall and gave them to Yue Huizhen.

"This is the sample design I created. These two magazines will be designed like this. Don't skimp on the money where it's necessary. I hope to see our inaugural issue at the beginning of next month."

"I'll arrange it as soon as possible." Lok Wai-ching sighed. "It's already early April, time is a bit tight."

Chen Fei said, "If we don't have enough manpower, we can recruit more. Anyway, you have friends in the industry, so getting them to help interview a few celebrities shouldn't be a problem."

Once I'm done here.

News came from Ya Zi that a lawyer and a financial consulting firm had been found.

Let Chen Fei handle the affairs.

The so-called handling of affairs is actually just signing documents.

When Chen Fei arrived, the lawyer and the financial consulting firm were already waiting. After exchanging pleasantries, the lawyer and the financial consulting firm showed their identification to Chen Fei to verify their identities.

After confirming their identities, they took out a large pile of prepared documents.

Chen Fei directly uses the signature "Chen Fei".

You can choose any name for the offshore company: Apex Investment, Ace Investment, Aco Investment.

As for the name of the group company, Chen Fei really chose the name Black Gold. It is controlled by three offshore companies in proportion to achieve the advantages of "compliant tax avoidance, risk isolation, and covert operation".

British-owned companies such as Jardine Matheson and Hong Kong-based conglomerates all use offshore companies to transfer assets, circumvent risks, and reduce the risk of being investigated by regulators.

Chen Fei bought a bunch of business plans from the mall and threw them at Ya Zi, saying, "This is the company's framework plan. Just follow this."

His plan is to rapidly launch businesses in the investment banking and trading sectors by acquiring suitable small companies.

Because recruiting staff himself would take a long time and be risky, the new team would lack cohesion and be prone to problems such as chaotic accounts and misallocation of funds, and the new company had no historical business transaction records, which did not meet his needs.

In any case, the barriers to entry for investment banks and small financial companies are low at this time. Most of them have already completed registration and filing, have a basic accounting system and simple customer resources. After acquisition, they can be taken over directly without reapplying for relevant qualifications, which can save 1-3 months of registration and approval time.

After everything was settled, Chen Fei called to the Ya Zi sisters, "Now our company has taken its first step, and it will definitely have a place in Hong Kong in the future. I can see that you sisters are both very talented. Let's go out for dinner together tonight."

"No, thank you for the invitation, Boss," Ya Zi politely declined. "The new company has just opened, and you've given me so many documents. I have a lot of things to do and need to help Boss get the company up and running as soon as possible."

See, that's the benefit of being an undercover agent.

If they fail to achieve their goal, they will try every means to prove their abilities in order to infiltrate the core.

Therefore, they can exploit people relentlessly.

Even when the company is in trouble, they can raise funds from them.

Chen Fei insisted, "How can that be? We're still a startup, and there are many challenging tasks ahead of you. What if you get exhausted? What about you, Zhen?"

"I'm not eating either," Yue Huizhen said, shaking her head. "You gave me a bunch of things, and I need to go back and study them first."

"It's just a meal, how could it possibly delay anything?" Chen Fei said. "Let's go."

Seeing that things had been said to this extent, the two sisters couldn't refuse.

During the meal, Yako said, seemingly intentionally, "Boss, I..."

"Why call me 'boss'? Don't be so formal, just call me Brother Fei," Chen Fei said.

"Okay, Brother Fei." Ya Zi nodded and said, "I saw from your identity documents that you only entered Hong Kong a few days ago. It's amazing that you can run such a big company. Your methods are truly remarkable."

Chen Fei waved his hand and said, "It's nothing to mention, just basic operation. There's no need to make a fuss. This is just the beginning. Keep up the good work, and I will definitely not treat you unfairly. You will definitely not be shortchanged in terms of shares and dividends."

He didn't boast about what he would do in the future.

Anyway, no matter what they say now, in the eyes of the Ya sisters, it's all just bragging.

Why waste your breath?

You might as well go be a goofball.

After the meal, Ya Zi and Le Huizhen left first.

On the way back, Yako asked curiously, "How did you and Fei-ge meet? Has he always been like this?"

"We've only known each other for three days." Yue Huizhen shook her head helplessly, recalling the scene of Chen Fei recruiting her with a gun. "It's not like it's always been like this."

"You've only known him for three days, and you dare to go into business with him?" Ya Zi asked, her face full of surprise.

Lok Wai-ching smiled bitterly to herself. He had already forced me to agree at gunpoint. How could I refuse?

He said, "I feel he's quite capable. He was the one who told me about Deborah and yesterday's robbery. I thought this was a better career path than being a reporter, so I agreed."

"What did he say?" Ya Zi was even more puzzled. No wonder Robert, that foreigner, suspected that Lok Hye-jung knew something.

Lok Wai-ching nodded and said, "Yes, if he hadn't told me, how would I know all this? By the way, you can't tell anyone about this. The police came to ask me about this this morning, and I really don't know anything about it."

"Don't worry, what can I say to the cops?" Yako said.

He secretly analyzed Chen Fei's background: He had only been in Hong Kong for a few days, yet he knew about two cases and was able to make large-scale investments. Could he have come from the north?

Yue Huizhen thought for a moment and said, "Don't you think this person is a little abnormal?"

"How so?"

"You gave me 500,000 after just chatting with me for a while, and now you dare to give me 5 million after just having a meal with me. I can't think of any other word to describe this except that you're not in the right mind," said Lok Wai-ching.

"Although I found it strange at first, after thinking about it carefully, I realized that he was actually testing us," Ya Zi analyzed. "I don't know why he wasn't afraid that we would run away with the money, but he must have a backup plan to prevent us from doing so."

After a brief recollection, Lok Wai-ching realized that this was indeed the case. This person did things unpredictably and claimed to be the King of Hong Kong Intelligence, so she figured he must have a backup plan.

But he still didn't understand, "Why did he choose us?"

"That's exactly what I've been thinking about," Yako replied, then countered, "If you were newly arrived in Hong Kong and asked to find a local to start a company with, what would you think?"

"Of course I'm not doing it. Who knows if someone will run off with the money?" Lok Wai-ching answered without hesitation.

"That's right." Yako nodded. "Even if you need help, you'd ask someone you know to avoid being scammed. But he did..."

"As soon as they met us, they gave us real money to start a company," said Lok Wai-ching.

"That's right, but we don't even know his background or origins, yet he dared to do this, which only proves that he has the ability to prevent us from running away." As she said this, Ya Zi suddenly felt a chill.

If my analysis is correct, I will have to work even harder to prevent my undercover identity from being exposed.

Even things he didn't mention, we should help fill in as much as possible.

Or should I use my position again to ask my superiors for leniency and make things easier for the Black Gold Group in certain matters?

Rather than waiting for the undercover agent's identity to be discovered, it's better to make up a story and say that someone in your family works at the police station.

Moreover, after listening to what Ah-Zhen said about the magazine's contents, I felt it was quite promising.

How much do cops make a month? Why risk your life like that?

Thinking of this, she hurriedly shook her head: Wait, I'm an undercover agent, how can I be corrupted by money?

……

After parting ways with them, Chen Fei went straight home.

He didn't recruit a strategist today, nor did he look at the hints; he just wanted to see if his cheat system would cause any trouble.

I opened the notification while lying in bed.

[Recruitment mission for gang strategist complete, receive entertainment gift pack reward]

Hold.

What does that mean?

Chen Fei didn't pay attention to that so-called entertainment gift package.

The gang's strategist was actually recruited?

Could it be a bud?

I, a shady character, recruited an undercover police officer as my strategist.

Is it because you think you're not flamboyant enough?

Just as this question popped into my head, the phone rang.

Chen Fei picked it up casually: "Feed..."

"Brother Fei, this is Ya Zi. I've read your magazine's proposal, and I have a general idea now," Ya Zi said. "My uncle works at the police station. How about I ask him to help me shut down those shady magazines, so it'll be easier to pave the way for 'YES!' and 'Black Gold'?"

"Huh?" Chen Fei was taken aback.

Are you the one taking advantage of the system, or am I?
