Chapter 157 Lu Yueting
HSBC Hong Kong is a United Bank with funds from the UK. Although the development momentum of Taihe Bank in the Eastern countries in recent years is not challenging, HSBC still has a huge customer base in Hong Kong and Shanghai. However, since last year, as Taihe Bank strives for the Hong Kong market, HSBC's business development has been difficult.**(..)
The wide bank hall of the headquarters is evident and evident, and it cannot hide the current embarrassment of HSBC. Although there are endless customers in the bank hall, HSBC's most important customers are being poached one by one...
At this time, in the VIP lounge, Su Shilan, one of the sponsors of HSBC Bank and vice chairman of the Banking Committee, was meeting an extremely important guest.
Su Shilan is an authentic Scot, with a big beard and a typical Scottish character, but the translation of the Yinhao gave him a local transliteration name according to Chinese customs.
A young man in a green robe at the VIP room he met, Su Shilan knew that this old man was very famous in China and was the leader of the China's largest armed opposition party, the Fair Party, and was called Lu Yueting.
Most of the funds for the Frank Party's activities were posted through HSBC. Lu Yueting is a very personalized oriental scholar and has many British friends. The Frank Party's capital on HSBC exceeds 100,000 pounds, which is an astronomical figure, so HSBC attaches great importance to this big customer.
However, the Mr. Lu in front of him seemed to be intentionally withdrawing all the funds, as if he was about to break them into pieces and transfer them to Taihe Bank. Su Shilan could only persuade him with great sincerity and said: "Mr. Lu, you know, Taihe Bank has the royal family behind the scenes. Some people even say that all the shares of Taihe Bank are the assets of the royal family. Can you feel at ease to hand over your money to your enemies?"
Lu Yueting was thin and vigorous, with his eyes very vivid. He had been silent and heard Su Shilan say the word "Your country". A trace of light flashed in his eyes. He held the crutch with both hands and said, "Mr. Su Shilan, you are wrong. That's not my country. The country I want is not like this. I can predict that in a hundred years, this hypocritical regime will be even more powerful and cruel than the Qing Dynasty!"
Su Shilan echoed: "Mr. Lu is saying. So, don't you feel at ease to hand over the money to them?"
Lu Yueting smiled slightly and said, "The more dangerous the place, the safer it is sometimes."
Su Shilan was about to persuade him again. A blond and blue-eyed female employee came in with a tea tray and brought two cups of fragrant coffee. Su Shilan reached out and signaled, "Mr. Lu, let's talk slowly. This is coffee beans from Brazil, please give me some advice." He sighed at this point, "Hutchison Monopoly..." He didn't say the following words, but he sighed that he didn't expect that one day he would have to go through a Chinese business.
Brazil has always been a colony of Portugal. When Napoleon invaded Portugal, the Portuguese royal family moved to Brazil. However, with the decline of Portugal, those Portuguese Brazilians gradually believed that Portugal had become a burden. When the Portuguese royal family fought for power, the Brazilians supported a Portuguese prince as emperor. They announced their separation from Portugal's rule, and the Lisbon regime had no strength to attack Brazil at all. In the end, they had to accept the fact that Brazil was **. However, the relationship between Brazil and Portugal has always been closely linked. In recent years, as close partners of Portugal, China's trade with Brazil has increased dramatically, and Chinese businessmen gradually replaced the British's position in Brazil in the past. How could it not make Su Shilan sigh?
Lu Yueting did not touch the coffee cup on the marble coffee table, but stood up with a cane and said, "I still want to smell the fragrance of tea..."
Before he finished speaking, the British female staff member who was about to go out suddenly exclaimed and four or five burly men in black suits rushed in from outside the door. The screams of the female staff member ended abruptly, but was covered by a big man.
Each of the great men had a black box cannon in their hands, pointing to Lu Yueting and Su Shilan. The tall man led by him said coldly: "Lu Yueting, come with us!"
Su Shilan shouted: "Who are you? You dare to come here to act wildly! This is British territory, you can leave quickly!" It is impossible for the armed personnel of the Hong Kong authorities to come to HSBC headquarters to arrest people without saying hello, and the arrests were even more prominent figures. After counting, there was only one possibility that these people were secret spies from China.
The big men ignored Su Shilan and were furious and shocked, but just stared at Lu Yueting's every move. Lu Yueting was exhausted and nodded slightly, "I have been waiting for you for a long time." But he did not resist and walked out with a crutch. Su Shilan wanted to stop him, but was pushed aside by the big man. He shouted anxiously: "Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu, don't worry, they can't take you away!"
Lu Yueting smiled and looked back at him, saying, "How come the revolution will not shed blood? I am enough to awaken the world with blood."
"Stop talking nonsense!" A big man pushed Lu Yueting, while Su Shilan only felt a sharp pain in her head. She was hit on her head with the handle of a gun. She felt dizzy and slowly sat down...
A few minutes later, before the head office, a black car set off a fire and rushed south.
...
When Ye Zhao's special train was docked in Wuchang, he received a tight emergency telegram from Ruisi. Lu Yueting was captured in Hong Kong. During the pursuit of the Hong Kong police, the Navy of the Empire Angchuanzhou Navy dispatched warships and drove out the small boats of the Hong Kong police.
Ye Zhao could imagine the scene at that time. There is no land connection between Kowloon and Hong Kong Island now. After the housekeeper arrested Lu Yueting, he naturally left Hong Kong on a merchant ship that had been disguised. In addition, the Navy of Ang Chuanzhou responded, which made the Ying Water Police return unsuccessfully.
In the telegram, Rui Si also said that the secret arrest of Lu Yueting in Hong Kong was based on the "Regional Police Cooperation Law" signed by Southeast countries. According to this law, as long as the headquarters of the Southeast National Police Alliance is approved and the General Administration of the Police of the Member States cooperates, the alliance assists the police can take people in a foreign country.
Sitting in the luxury carriage, drinking coffee, Ye Zhao smiled when he saw Rui Si's defense. Although he was unreasonable, Rui Si had improved a lot and knew how to act "according to the law". He was really even more Dai Li. This secret police leader was no longer his own follower in the past.
However, there was a dispute, that is, the sovereignty of Hong Kong Island. Today, Hong Kong Island is legally sovereignty belongs to Britain. Of course, because it was a treaty signed by the previous dynasty, the original meaning of the treaty was that the emperor was merciful to the British merchants and gave them land to moor and recuperate, so it was also questionable that the detectives took people on the island.
"Give me orders and go to Shanghai." Ye Zhao said to Wan Dequan who was serving him. (To be continued...)
