Rebirth: Outstanding

Chapter 167: Cover the coffin

Shi Zhiyi finished the work at hand, raised his wrist to check the time, and was about to leave the industrial and commercial management office to go home and change an evening dress. He attended the small-scale celebration dinner specially prepared for his wife by the Hong Kong Club in the evening. Since the newspapers and radio stations He began to broadcast a series of incidents such as his wife’s establishment of Oxfam, investigating Hong Kong’s water quality and safety, giving free medicines, etc. Even after many Hong Kong people spontaneously hiked to offer flowers outside the villa where their husband and wife lived, the whole thing was more than just Local fermentation in Hong Kong, Shi Zhiyi believes that in London, after he has taken care of it, reports have begun to appear.

The dinner party specially prepared by Hong Kong for his wife is this small weather vane.

I usually go to some activities of the Hong Kong Club by myself. Even if I bring my wife, the wife can only wait in the female guest lounge in the end. The wives or lovers of those members of the Hong Kong Club, in addition to being polite and perfunctory to their wives, rarely even interact with them. She exchanged some topics between women, Shi Zhiyi even knew that they would call their wives an aboriginal woman from Australia behind their backs.

Aboriginal Australians, this is already a very vicious term for most of the women from London in the Hong Kong Society.

But tonight is no longer the same. In addition to calling himself, the secretary of the Hong Kong Club, who is in charge of telephone contact, called to the villa alone, and the name of his wife is no longer Deputy Director Shi Zhiyi’s wife, but a philanthropist. Mrs. Beth.

At this moment, the phone on the desk rang. After Shi Zhiyi got through, the voice on the phone was a call from the Secretary No. 2 of the Secretariat of the Governor’s House: "Mr. Mason, if you have friends in London, You can ask him to buy you a copy of The Observer and learn about the exclusive news about Hong Kong published on it."

"Is it because someone slandered Hong Kong in the newspapers. After the Governor of Hong Kong took over, the industrial and commercial data has dropped significantly?" Shi Zhiyi said: "The guys in London should really let them come to Hong Kong to take a look. Your Lord has already It’s done very well, and it can only be worse if you replace it with others. Unless the UK no longer abides by the embargo, data slippage is inevitable."

He thought that in London newspapers, the opposition began to jump out to criticize opponents. This kind of thing is not uncommon. British gentlemen and parliamentarians are accustomed to publishing their own words against current affairs in newspapers. However, the political stance of The Observer is not. Obviously, this newspaper prefers to publish some so-called exclusive news, and is responsible for providing topics for British people who are going to be scolded in the newspaper.

"No, obviously not. You can call back to London to find out. Mr. Governor hopes that you can handle the whole matter after you understand the news." The secretary hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

Shi Zhiyi frowned, picked up the phone and called his friends in London. Although the Observer is not as powerful as the Daily Mail and The Times, it is also one of the top five newspapers in the UK. , Especially the officials and businessmen in London, almost every morning at breakfast, the two newspapers "The Observer" and "Financial Daily" are regarded as compulsory courses.

"Patrick?" After being inquired by the servant, the call was handed over to the hand of Edward Hill, Shi Zhiyi's alumnus who served as the Assistant to the Foreign Secretary's Counselor in London: "I received your call in the rainy morning in London. , It surprised me, what's the weather like in Asia?"

"Eating breakfast?" Shi Zhiyi looked at his watch: "Is there an Observer on hand? Pick it up and help me find news about Hong Kong."

"I just finished reading it. I am reading the Hong Kong news on the Financial Daily and the Observer. You don’t need to deliberately look for it. The second edition, an exclusive news with a photo, was seized by the Hong Kong Customs with the cooperation of the army stationed in Hong Kong. A large number of military drugs are being investigated. According to sources, the military drugs seized this time are likely to come from a trading company founded by a Chinese in Hong Kong called the European Coast. This company not only monopolizes most of them. The agency rights of antibiotic drugs in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia also maliciously drive up drug prices. In London, penicillin injections for less than one pound need to be increased ten times in Hong Kong before they can be bought on the black market. I guess this company must be offended People, these explosions are really hot, wow, and maliciously hoarding the raw materials for medicines urgently needed by the charity Oxfam initiated by the British philanthropist Mrs. Beth..." Edward Hill picked up the "Observer" and glanced at it again. "The picture shows the Director of Customs and British soldiers taking photos with the seized military medicines in the warehouse. It is really clear. The Americans also contacted the British Overseas Colony Department last week, saying that Hong Kong, as a British colony, has imposed a ban on the United Nations. The shipping order has not been fully implemented. The smuggling of prohibited goods in Hong Kong is still rampant. I guess those gentlemen in the foreign affairs department will feel very timely and pleased when they see this news. At least this time, they have enough reasons to deal with Yankees. Speaking of it, the customs is under your jurisdiction. If those big guys are in a good mood, you might get a commendation or something..."

"On your daughter's birthday, I will call to greet her and send her a greeting card. Goodbye, Edward, next time I will chat with you." Before the other party finished speaking, Shi Zhiyi hung up the phone somewhat impolitely!

Likang allowed Zhang's family to get through to the Governor, but it took a different approach. It broke such a piece of news in London with photos? ! Obviously, the Governor of Hong Kong has received the news from the Observer, and maybe the big diplomats in London will praise the Governor for doing a good job this time, but in fact, it's like the secretary who called himself said That way, the Governor of Hong Kong is in a good mood to hell.

I designed Likang a little bit, but I didn't expect Likang to throw it back to myself in a dilemma? See yourself embarrassed? It's just that Likang is really not worried. After this incident passes, will he deliberately target Likang with dissatisfaction?

But those are not important at the moment. The important thing is to keep the Governor from embarrassment. The Observer has been widely used by British high-ranking figures. In other words, it is now certain that most of the big figures have been willing or unwilling to see this. A piece of Hong Kong news, eager to perfuse the American diplomatic department, I am afraid that this morning in London will pass the news to the Yankees, proving that Hong Kong, the British Far Eastern colony, has implemented the embargo very well.

If Oolong broke out at this time, even if it wanted to launch Likang as a replacement for the dead, it would be too late.

The newspaper said that it was the fault of the European Coast Company, and that could only be the fault of the European Coast Company. The British cannot be wrong, but the Chinese can only be wrong!

But now, how to deal with Zhang's family? Expect the Governor to return the benefits to the Zhang family? Considering Grant Hong’s greedy character, Shi Zhiyi feels that this possibility is almost negligible.

No wonder the Hong Kong Governor's Mansion called and let himself clean up the situation! He provoked a murder situation with a borrowed knife, and finally went round and round, and the knife returned to his hand!

Likang, the young Chinese named Song Tianyao, was really amazing.

In today's situation, he can only rely on the fact that Zhangjia's European Coast Company is smuggling prohibited goods, but before that, he has to let Song Tianyao know that he can design Likang, but Likang has to bear his anger when designing him.

I just wanted to call the Director of the Customs Department, Shen Wenkang, to let the customs go to seal up Likang’s warehouse. At this moment, the secretary outside knocked on the door gently and said, "Sir, there is Song Tianyao who claims to be the secretary of Likang Trading Company. Sir, I said you asked him to meet at this time, but I don’t have his name on your itinerary for today, so I’m here to ask you."

Shi Zhiyi was stunned when he heard these words, but he quickly sat back at his desk and said in a calm voice: "Yes, I remember that I did make an appointment with him and let him in. Thank you, Jeff."

After a short time, Song Tianyao was led in by the secretary from outside. After thanking the secretary who left, Song Tianyao looked at Shi Zhiyi behind the desk and said with a subtle smile: "Mr. Shi, it is not easy to cooperate with you."

Shi Zhiyi stared at the young man in front of him with eyes sunken in his eye sockets: "Why is the news in the Observer? You can fight against the Zhang family head-on, and when Likang is clearly in the upper hand, and It’s not like it is now. You should know that leaving the Governor aside, it’s just me. Now I hate Likang far more than the European Coast Company described in the newspapers."

"You are a Chinese expert, Mr. Shi, but obviously you don’t know much about Chinese businessmen. As long as there are other possibilities, we don’t like to destroy the friendship on the surface. Similarly, the battle between the Chu family and the Zhang family will cause a series of chain reactions. As for your dislike of Likang, I think it may be that the current situation makes you embarrassed? Mr. Governor needs you to deal with it perfectly. It’s something, right? I’m here for this.” Song Tianyao took out a stack of photos from his suit pocket and put them on Shi Zhiyi’s desk: “The photo shows military drugs seized by the customs and the British army, from the coast of Europe. The company, now lying in the customs warehouse, has more details than the photo published in the London newspaper, and as long as you nod your head, tomorrow morning, the major Hong Kong newspapers will also keep pace with the London newspapers, reporting that the customs seized Europe The news about the smuggling of military-funded drugs by coastal companies and the trafficking of military-funded drugs are much worse than trafficking in general drugs."

"What if Zhang's European Coast Company refuses to admit it? They are very rich and may be able to hire a lot of lawyers to appeal this matter." Shi Zhiyi picked up the photo on the table and looked at it, and said to Song Tianyao.

Song Tianyao took out the zippo given to him by Zhang Yuliang, and slowly placed it in front of Shi Zhiyi: "If the Zhang family is guilty, destroy the evidence? Tonight, the customs warehouse may be suddenly attacked by malicious intent and burned by arson. The Customs seized the Pharmaceutical Association drugs. The burning was done by the Zhang family in collusion with a foreign gang, and I think someone in the Zhang family would admit that they were trafficking in military assets. As far as I know, Zhang Yujie’s younger brother, Zhang Yuliang, is willing to testify for the customs, even the Zhang family’s own people. They all admit that they are selling military assets and colluding with gangs will attack and maliciously set the customs warehouse on fire. Do you still need to give them a chance to hire a lawyer to appeal?"

"After nine o'clock tonight, there will be a fire, and the customs and the police station will then jointly act to arrest the foreign gang member responsible for attacking the customs warehouse and arson and Zhang Yujie, the person in charge of Zhang Jia, who is behind the scenes. When tomorrow morning, Hong Kong reports this. In the news, some people who have doubts will find that the British are not wrong, but the Chinese are wrong. And, there is one more thing, I just found out in the accounts of Oxfam, the honorary president of Oxfam Ge Mulian The wife of the Governor and Mrs. Beth, the first president, respectively subscribed for one million Hong Kong dollars worth of deworming drugs for free donation to the Hong Kong people. However, due to insufficient production capacity and malicious hoarding of raw materials, Likang was temporarily unable to supply these drugs. Therefore, the two ladies’ one million Hong Kong dollars will be returned to their Oxfam account in a few days for them to use for other charitable purposes. This is the original intention of everyone for charity, what do you think?"

Song Tianyao calmly asked Chao Shi Zhiyi in a soft voice, "Or, you must insist and keep disgusting with Likang, who is keen on charity?"
