Chapter 2087
Don't Treat Others Like Fools
Lou Xiao'e is now using the most basic method, playing her cards openly.
She didn't care whether others could see through her thoughts.
As long as she has no loopholes, even if the capital manipulating gold sees through her attempt to profit from the situation, there's nothing they can do.
She only invested £100 million.
But those investors may have invested tens of billions to manipulate this market.
Naturally, she wouldn't stop her actions because of her small sum of one hundred million.
At most, I can help her make money.
This is like in the stock market, where a few major players have already completed their accumulation phase and are about to drive up the price when suddenly a large investor bursts in.
Large investors have a moderate amount of capital, neither too much nor too little.
They bought it and then didn't touch it at all.
The market maker had no better option than to continue pushing the price up according to the original plan.
We can't let all the momentum we've built up over the years be wasted because of this big player's intrusion.
We can only make money together.
In the stock market, the big players might even use specific coded signals to hint at the big investors.
Tell him to stop making trouble; let's all make money together.
In the world of finance, there's never a shortage of people who want to profit.
I'm afraid someone will take the whole pot away, or smash a hole in it.
So someone did hint to Lou Xiao'e that she shouldn't talk nonsense and say anything to outsiders.
Of course, the implication of being a 'civilized person' is very subtle.
Anyway, if someone like He Yuzhu were to listen to it, he probably wouldn't understand.
Ho Mansion, Deep Water Bay, Hong Kong Island.
With her son's help, Lou Xiao'e toured her family's estate.
She has moved here.
This time she can openly hang the two big characters "He Mansion" at the gate of the courtyard.
This mansion will become He Xinghua's family heirloom.
There's not much to say about this; she originally bought this house for He Yuzhu.
He Yuan is now settled in Beijing. When she went back last time, she had already bought a Western-style house from the Republican era in Shanghai as compensation for her.
That luxury house of hers was purchased after Tanya Li became wealthy.
It no longer seems to match the net worth of Lou Xiao'e, Hong Kong's richest woman.
Perfect timing, since we're going to make a big show of He Xinghua inheriting the family business.
So she simply chose an auspicious day and moved in with her children.
Walking through the garden of her luxurious mansion now, Lou Xiao'e feels completely at ease.
"Mom, a merchant from John Bull has made a quote for our telecommunications company."
HK$40 million.
"Do you want to go see him?" He Xinghua helped his mother up, showing no impatience whatsoever.
Instead, he reported everything that happened in the company to Lou Xiao'e in detail.
Lou Xiao'e's investment in the telecommunications company has so far been limited to the paging station.
In fact, the investment is not large.
However, for the later stages of the mobile phone business, she had already made investment plans and established a company structure.
This acquisition came as a complete surprise.
She did not announce that she would sell her telecommunications company.
In fact, what the Hong Kong business community is now eyeing are the several prime plots of land owned by her real estate company.
In recent years, due to the accelerated transfer of industries from the West, the rise of the Four Asian Tigers has taken shape.
Therefore, investment in these areas is currently booming.
Real estate prices really do change every day.
What you buy is what you earn.
Therefore, the large-scale sale of assets by individuals such as Lou Xiao'e and the Huo family initially caused some market turmoil.
But that couldn't stop the hot money from flooding into Hong Kong's real estate market. Since Lou Xiao'e sold off her properties, countless business tycoons have been eyeing her.
This is one of the reasons why she moved to Deep Water Bay.
Security is a bit easier to maintain here than at the old house.
Otherwise, money can be a powerful motivator, and who knows if some audacious individuals might be eyeing her family?
Hong Kong Island today is polarized.
On the one hand, there is the prosperity of the market.
Then there's the chaos and disorder at the bottom of Hong Kong Island.
Especially after the monkeys lost to our family, quite a few things actually sneaked over from over there.
In these matters, Lou Xiao'e would naturally not go out and be the kind of person who does things indiscriminately.
Her roots are in mainland China, even though she has always been involved in charity work.
But whether out of personal motives or political stance, she was unwilling to help those ungrateful wretches.
If it weren't for our family helping the monkeys, Amarica would have wiped them out more than ten years ago.
But just a few years later, those people turned their backs on them and became even worse than the prostitutes in brothels.
Lou Xiao'e was quite insistent on this matter.
What she's advocating in the media now is that Hong Kong's wealth should be used for the benefit of the people of Hong Kong.
Instead of using it on outsiders.
She definitely has enemies here.
Some people also brought up Lou Xiao'e's donations to the mainland.
But Lou Xiao'e casually remarked, "My roots are in the mainland, and my ancestors are buried there."
That's enough to make those nitpickers hide their faces and walk away.
Who would dare to disown their ancestors?
……
However, this also made the monkeys that ended up on Hong Kong Island have a less than favorable impression of Lou Xiao'e.
Her companies have also recently been subjected to some harassment.
Lou Xiao'e didn't stand on ceremony and directly ordered Lai Hongchang to issue a kill order, bringing out all the troublemakers.
Lou Xiao'e didn't offer an opinion. Instead, she smiled and asked He Xinghua, "Son, what do you think we should do?"
He Xinghua was just frowning in thought when Lou Xiao'e forcefully pressed his forehead and scolded him, "Don't frown all the time."
For those who accomplish great things, the fundamental skill is to keep their emotions hidden.
Don't let others see through your thoughts.
Sigh, these are things your father should have taught you.
Son of a bitch……"
Lou Xiao'e swore, but it was unclear who she was cursing.
"Hmm... Mom, this is what I think."
I know the telecommunications company's future plans.
This is of utmost importance to our family.
According to my father, this industry will eventually reach a scale of tens or hundreds of billions.
But aren't we just putting on an act now?
If you're going to act, you should go all the way.
I want to establish an investment company under an American-owned name.
Then they invested in our telecommunications company.
That way, those foreign devils won't be thinking about it every day.
But it would be best if we went to see those John Bulls.
"By showing weakness to the enemy, we can prevent them from testing us with other means." He Xinghua had some talent in business; he clearly analyzed the meaning behind John Bull's probing and his proposed response was quite appropriate.
Lou Xiao'e is quite satisfied with her son's growth.
Lou Xiao'e still looked at her son with a smile, but the satisfaction in her eyes was evident.
She stared blankly at the flowers not far away for a while before saying, "Tell those people I want two hundred million pounds!"
If they agree, I will give them a chance to meet.
Son, you've thought this through very well.
But let me teach you something: in business, don't treat others like fools! ..." (End of Chapter)
