Xia Tian immediately took a bus to the Governor's Office.

This year's Governor is Sir Wei Yixin, who just took over the position of Governor in April this year. At that time, Xia Tian was invited to visit the Governor's Office to watch the ceremony.

In the 1960s, Sir Wei Yixin served as secretary of the British Agency for the Shendu and had a good understanding of mainland China. In the late 1970s, he was an advisor to Sir MacLehore in Hong Kong and participated in the negotiations on the Sino-British Hong Kong issue. Later, he was promoted to the chief representative of the Sino-British Joint Liaison Group, and successfully completed the signing of the Sino-British Joint Statement.

Sir Wei Yixin likes Chinese culture and speaks Chinese. He is considered a Chinese master. He has a relatively friendly attitude towards the mainland, which is very different from his successor, the last Governor Peng Chunkang.

After Xia Tian arrived at the Governor's Office, he was led to the reception room by someone.

Then we saw Mr. Chen Bi, Sir Wei Yixin, Li Jiacheng, Bao Yugang, Guo Desheng, and Li Fuzhao all arrived.

Seeing these people, Xia Tian felt a clear idea.

The purpose of Chen Bi's invitation to come should be to discuss rescuing the market.

Xia Tian greeted him one by one and sat in his seat.

The atmosphere in the reception room was quite solemn, and everyone's expressions were also quite heavy.

This stock market crash came too suddenly. Not everyone is ready in advance like summer, selling stocks to cash out.

Therefore, they all suffered huge losses, as if Li Jiacheng had lost 10 billion yuan. His shares of Changjiang Industrial, Hutchison Whampoa, Hong Kong Electric Lighting, and Jiahong International all plummeted by 20% to 30%, which was a terrible loss.

Originally, Li Jiacheng escaped this stock market crash in his previous life. Before the stock market crash, he raised more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars. Not only did he successfully avoid the stock market crash, but he also made a big profit for the company.

However, in this life, because the summer's first issuance of new shares disrupted his right-to-stock fundraising plan, Li Jiacheng had no choice but to choose to postpone it.

Because the funds in the market are limited, the purchasing power of investors is also limited. New shares are issued in the summer, and 8 billion Hong Kong dollars are taken from the stock market. If he offers shares to raise funds, he may not be able to complete it. At that time, it will be embarrassing, and it will damage the reputation he has finally accumulated.

Therefore, Li Jiacheng didn't want to take risks, so he had to find another opportunity to launch a stock fundraising plan. As a result, before he could choose the time, the stock market crash came, and he suddenly lost a lot.

In addition to Li Jiacheng, Bao Yugang, Guo Desheng, Huo Yingdong, Zheng Yutong and others also suffered a considerable loss. The more billions and the less than one billions, all the market value evaporated, which was a damaging blow.

...

"Mr. Xia, I really want to congratulate you this time. I will escape the disaster!" Li Jiacheng looked at Xia Tian and said quietly.

After hearing what he said, everyone present looked at Xia Tian.

Everyone present knew about Wenhe Group selling stocks before the stock market crash. Originally, they thought Xia Tian was a little stupid because the Hong Kong stock market was so booming and should continue to invest additionally, so how could they withdraw at this time?

As a result, when the stock market crash comes, everyone is envious of summer. He sells stocks at a high level and cashes out, and gets billions of Hong Kong dollars in cash. If he takes advantage of the stock market crash to buy low and waits for the stock price to rebound again, it will be more than just a profit of one or two billion Hong Kong dollars. He is really envious of people!

"Thank you, Mr. Li, this time I was really lucky!" Xia Tian said with a quick smile.

"Is it really just a lucky chance, Mr. Xia? Don't you have any inside information, right?" Guo Desheng asked with his eyes narrowed.

Xia Tian waved his hand quickly, "Mr. Guo was joking. I had no background and no connections. How could there be insider news that has affected the world like this? This time it was indeed a lucky draw. If I hadn't bought Columbia Pictures, I wouldn't have sold my stocks to cash out."

Everyone present looked at each other and thought he was right. This stock market crash spread all over the world, a catastrophe, not one. How could the stocks of the two companies be raised and dropped? How could Xia Tian receive insider information in advance?

Since it is not caused by insider information, it can only be attributed to Xia Tian's investment vision and good luck. It coincides with acquiring Columbia Pictures, and then it coincides with acquiring stocks to cash out. It's so good and enviable.

Xia Tian was relieved when he saw that they had not asked him about the reason for avoiding the stock market crash. He must not tell everyone now that he sold his stocks in advance and cashed out because he knew that the stock market crash would happen.

In that case, he may be caught for slice research. Xia Tian would not naively think that he was the chief rich man in Hong Kong and could escape the disaster. No matter how much money he had, he would not be able to compete with a country.

...

After a while, all the well-known wealthy people in Hong Kong, including Zheng Yutong, Huo Yingdong, Jia Daoli, Kessek, Shi Huaiya, Li Zhaoji, etc., were here.

"Okay, everyone, the purpose of summoning you all today is to hope that you can come and save the market together." Mr. Shen Bi said straight to the point, "The Hong Kong stock market is related to the Hong Kong economy. If the stock market is sluggish, the economy will also be sluggish.

Everyone is a person who makes a living in this hot land of Hong Kong. Hong Kong is prosperous, everyone is prosperous; Hong Kong is declining, everyone is declining. At this time of crisis, I hope everyone will not retreat and stand up bravely to contribute to saving the Hong Kong stock market."

It was not surprising that everyone heard him say this. Because they had guessed before they came that they were summoned to save the market. When they arrived, they were more confident about their guesses when they saw everyone present.

I just guessed it, but everyone still has different opinions on rescuing the market. You should know that the Hong Kong stock market is now closed and cannot trade. Once the market resumes, who knows how the stock market develops, whether it is rising or falling.

If the investors sell out wildly, let alone the top ten rich people, even if they gather all the top 100 rich people in Hong Kong to save the market, it will be useless.

Because once the stock market crash breaks out, it will not work in a few billion or tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars. At that time, the frightened people will sell their money wildly, and even if they invest tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars to save the market, it will be a drop in the bucket.

Therefore, after listening to Shen Bi's words, no one expressed his opinion and waited for the others to stand up first.

After a while of silence, Li Jiacheng spoke first. He is Shen Bi's old friend and the richest man in Hong Kong. He should be the first to speak in terms of reasoning.

"Mr. Shen Bi is right. As a wealthy man in Hong Kong, in the face of this stock market crash, we cannot stand by and watch. We must do our best to save the market!" Li Jiacheng said passionately, "But Mr. Shen Bi, we also have our own difficulties. I support you to save the market, but it is hard for a good cook to cook without rice.

To be honest, the working capital of the four listed companies under my jurisdiction is less than HK$500 million. For this stock market crash, it is simply a drop in the bucket."

"Yes, I also support Mr. Chen Bi's words, but our company does not have much working capital, less than 300 million Hong Kong dollars." Zheng Yutong also spoke.

Then other rich people complained, saying that they lacked working capital and could not help much.

Although everyone here has tens of billions of assets, then again, assets do not equal funds. Generally speaking, their working capital is only a few hundred million Hong Kong dollars at most, and it is impossible for them to accumulate too much cash.

Because the return rate of cash deposit in the bank is too low, and sometimes it can't even catch up with inflation. Therefore, as long as they have money, they are generally used to investing, making money and getting money out of money. Therefore, letting them pay for money to save the market now is simply making things difficult for them.

Of course, Xia Tian knew that their crying might not be without the idea of ​​selling miserable things. The real situation may not be that bad, but it is absolutely impossible to accumulate 50 billion Hong Kong dollars in cash like him.

"Okay, everyone, I know you have difficulties, so I have figured out a solution for you." Sir Wei Yixin waved his hand and said, "I have discussed with Mr. Chen Bi, and his HSBC Bank will issue a loan to you. This loan does not require collateral, each with 5 billion Hong Kong dollars."

"Ah, that's fine."

"This is great, we are saved!"

"One person has 5 billion, ten people have 50 billion Hong Kong dollars, and it should be able to save the market."

When the rich men heard this, their faces were filled with happy smiles.

With these 5 billion Hong Kong dollars, they can make a fortune through this stock market crash. As long as they operate well, even if they make 100 billion Hong Kong dollars or 20 billion Hong Kong dollars, it will be a piece of cake.

"However, how to apply this money depends on Mr. Li Fuzhao's arrangements." Wei Yixin said again.

After hearing what he said, everyone present couldn't help but look dark.

If the money was arranged by Li Fuzhao, their dream of getting rich would be ruined. Because Li Fuzhao would never arrange for them to buy stocks that were cheap and valuable, but would instead let them buy stocks that fell the most fiercely and miserably to save the market.

In short, their ten rich men are just foreshadowing and are used to calm the people's hearts.

At that time, if the market rescue is successful, they may gain some good reputation, but don’t want to take the opportunity to make a lot of money.

After thinking it through, these rich people looked very good. Compared to their illusory reputation, they actually prefer profit. Because reputation is easy to make, money is difficult to make.

After you get rich, donate money casually and publicize it, your reputation will be nowhere near. However, you can encounter a chance to make money like a stock market crash.

However, unlike these wealthy people, Xia Tian is very supportive of this plan.

This time, the Hong Kong government used the ten wealthy people to build momentum to give stock investors a signal to actively rescue the market, so as to calm the people's hearts.
