Chapter 245 I will blame everyone here
Seeing this, the elder glanced at Zheng Jirong helplessly. Every information on the Continental Hotel on the high table was transparent to the board of directors, and he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to regarding the shares.
Moreover, if this kind of thing is not made clear in advance, the impact will be even worse when others on the council discover it later.
However, Zheng Jirong did not panic. He shook the cigar in his hand and glanced at Gianna, who had been paying attention to him.
After getting his signal, Jaina cleared her throat and said loudly: "I don't think there is anything inappropriate. I have been to Hong Kong Island and I know the situation there better than any of you."
"According to my statistics, in that area, there are no fewer than five gangs with more than 10,000 people, and no less than ten gangs with more than 5,000 people, not to mention the numerous small societies and gangs."
"And as the economic center of Asia, many gangsters often go to Hong Kong Island to commit robbery crimes. Due to some political factors, the security in this area has always been very poor, and it can even be said to be extremely chaotic."
"I can't see what the safest city in Asia looks like at all, so I support giving Director Zheng more shares. After all, if you get more, you will definitely have to pay more. There is one more thing I have to mention."
Gianna paused. After looking around at everyone, she said slowly: "In less than ten years, Hong Kong Island will be handed back to China from the hands of Hong Kong. With the conservative attitude of that country, it is very likely that the mainland hotel will be handed over to China." It will be wiped out by the army, and the first unlucky person will be Director Zheng, so the risks he takes are beyond our imagination."
"Gianna, you think too much."
The elder said to her displeasedly: "I know my attitude towards that country much better than you do. The Continental Hotel will never be eradicated by the GCD. I don't want to see you being such an alarmist again in the future."
After hearing his words, Gianna shrugged her shoulders and stopped talking. Anyway, every word she just said was told to her by Zheng Jirong before coming to the meeting.
How does she know how many high-end societies there are in Hong Kong Island?
However, everyone else at the table fell silent after hearing her words. In this era, these Europeans and Americans are very disgusted and afraid of GCD. On the one hand, it is due to their education since childhood, and on the other hand, it is due to their education since childhood. On the one hand, it is because today's European and American media reports on red countries are almost all kinds of smear news, which has created a deep-rooted perception for them over the years.
Red countries are scourges.
When they thought that Zheng Jirong might have to confront that big country in the East in a few years, many people at the table looked at him with gloating eyes.
In response, Zheng Jirong could only bite his cigar and spread his hands in a helpless manner.
Jaina's help to him this time was not small. Although this woman was a complete scumbag, she still did a very good job in explaining her affairs. With her voice, several seats in Europe also followed her. Women no longer have to worry about their own shares.
only.
"I object!"
Vincent Corleone stood up angrily and looked at everyone and said: "The rules of the Continental Hotel have never changed since my grandfather's generation. There are sixteen Continental Hotels in the world, no matter whose territory they are in, there is no one. The shares can exceed five points, why do you have it?"
He then said in a deep voice to Zheng Jirong: "You are not the only one who has cut off people's heads here!"
Although this guy is a loser who inherited his father's business, he still has a lot of weight in the council due to his family's influence.
After he finished speaking, several seats in North America and Australia joined him in opposing the elders' proposal.
Zheng Jirong, who was sitting high on the chair, put out the cigarette butt in his hand, looked at the people who opposed him and said slowly: "I think everyone may have made a mistake. The issue of my hotel shares is not a suggestion. , but to inform me that whether you object or not has no impact on me."
"Haha, it was you who made the mistake, not us."
Vincent looked at Zheng Jirong coldly and said coldly: "This is the United States, not Hong Kong Island. It's not your turn to make the decision!"
He then looked back at the gunmen surrounding them and said, "Do you think you can threaten us with force? Your naivety amazes me."
"Hahaha", Zheng Jirong clapped and laughed: "As expected of the third generation godfather of the Hi Hand Party, he really has the backbone. I heard that your Hi Hand Party has a famous saying about family, "A man who doesn't take time to spend with his family is not a real man. .】"
"Mr. Corleone controls such a big business, let me guess, you must rarely be at home with your wife and children during this time, right?"
"You?" Vincent said with eyes wide open, "What do you mean by that?"
"It doesn't mean anything. It's just a casual comment. Don't mind Mr. Corleone."
Looking at the smiling Zheng Jirong across from him, Vincent suddenly had an unpleasant feeling in his heart. He had been spending the night at his mistress's house during this period, and indeed he had not gone home for many days.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he took out the phone in his pocket and dialed.
"Hey Vincent, is that you?" Opposite was the long-lost voice of his wife Daisy.
Hearing his own voice, Vincent secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his facial expression softened slightly, he glanced at Zheng Jirong, and said softly: "It's me."
"Vinson, where have you been during this time? Jenny hasn't seen your father for several days."
"Don't ask too much. I will go home tonight. Nothing happened at home. Where is Jenny?"
Hearing her husband's incomprehensible answer, Daisy moved her body on the sofa at home with a smile and said: "Of course it's nothing, dear, today is not a holiday. Of course Jenny is at school, but she should be there soon." Home from school."
"Mom!"
Vincent heard the milky voice on the other end of the phone and asked quickly, "Is it Jenny back?"
Daisy held the mobile phone and walked to open the door. She saw her daughter carrying a bear schoolbag and a lollipop in her mouth. She turned around and shouted to someone: "Goodbye, uncle."
Daisy poked her head out in confusion, and saw a man driving a Land Rover sticking his head out of the window. He waved his hand towards Jenny, with a smile on his face, and when he hit the accelerator, he was gone in the blink of an eye. Disappeared from Daisy's sight.
"Jenny, do you know him?"
"Well, this uncle is so nice. Not only did he come to pick me up from school today, but he also gave me lollipops." Jenny said, the corners of her eyes turned into crescents, and she took the candy out of her mouth like a showoff and handed it to her to see. , "My uncle also told me that daddy was out and asked him to pick me up from school. He also said that he and daddy are friends, well, good friends."
This little girl learns to talk very cutely.
But Daisy felt nervous. She thought about her husband calling her suddenly for no reason, and she was still very nervous. Could it be that she was thinking of something?
She quickly pulled Jenny into the house and locked the door. Daisy tilted her head and clamped the mobile phone. While talking, she reached out to help her daughter take off her schoolbag, "Honey, have you asked a friend to pick Jenny up from school?"
"No! What happened to you over there?!"
"Huh?"
Daisy suddenly made a sound of surprise, and Vincent immediately tensed up, "What's wrong?"
"There is a gift box in Jenny's schoolbag." She opened it as she spoke. Before the latter could stop her, she heard her wife exclaim, "OMG, Tiffany! Diamond ring! Honey, is this a gift from you? ?”
Tiffany?
"There's a note underneath here."
Daisy put the diamond ring down doubtfully, spread out the paper, and read out from it.
"To find you."
Vincent's mind was shaken.
He hung up the phone abruptly, pointed at Zheng Jirong like an angry lion and roared: "How dare you threaten me with my family?!!!"
"Wowo", Zheng Jirong raised his hands in a gesture of surrender and said with a smile: "Why is Mr. Corleone so angry? Does she like the diamond ring I gave to your wife?"
Vincent slammed the table with anger, "Fuck! Do you want to start a war with our Corleone family?!"
"Don't be angry," Zheng Jirong explained with a smile: "That's just a gift from me. After all, you have more than a dozen lovers outside. I thought your wife must be lonely at home, so I gave her a diamond ring. .”
"Oh, by the way, your daughter likes teddy bears, and her birthday is coming soon. I'm thinking about giving her an extra-large teddy bear, the kind that can hold many baby bears in its belly. I think Jenny will definitely do it. like."
His words sounded relaxed, but in Vincent's opinion, the other party was completely bold.
"Do you know that you are provoking and threatening me?" He gritted his teeth.
"Is this considered a threat? If you think it is, then you are right. Such a cute little girl, tsk tsk tsk."
Zheng Jirong shook his head and said regretfully: "I really can't do it. Don't look at me just having my head cut off. In fact, I have always been very friendly to those cute and well-behaved children."
"Fuck! Fuck Fuck!!!"
Zheng Jirong looked at the incompetent and furious Vincent Corleone opposite, his eyes filled with disdain. If the person standing in front of him was the first-generation godfather Vito Corleone or the second-generation godfather Michael Corleone, he would definitely do this trick. I'm too lazy to play because there's no point in playing.
They are all high-end heroes who have been around for decades. What scenes have they not seen before? If you are ruthless, they will be ruthless than you.
It's just this third generation godfather.
What kind of rubbish is this? To put it bluntly, it's just a good surname.
"Elder", Zheng Jirong looked at the silent elder at the head of the table and said, "I think no one will object to the arrangement of the Hong Kong Island Continental Hotel this time, right?"
After hearing his words, the elder looked up at Vincent. Seeing that he did not continue to object but stared at Zheng Jirong, the elder shouted to everyone: "Since no one objects, then this matter is settled. , come, let me applaud Director Zheng to join us."
Pa..papa
There was scattered applause from the high table. Except for a few directors from Europe and South America who were applauding, other directors who were pro-Corleone were looking at Zheng Jirong coldly.
However, Zheng Jirong didn't care at all about their threatening glances. From the day he joined the club, he had encountered more assassinations, ambushes, and threats than he could count on both hands.
Afraid of death, why are you having fun?
After adjusting his collar and cuffs, Zheng Jirong stood up from the table and said calmly: "Now that it's all said and done, I'll go back first. If you are interested, you can come to Hong Kong to find me. I'm always welcome."
"But there is something I want to tell you in advance. I am a very superstitious person. If in the coming days, one of my people unfortunately encounters an accident on the land below me and is shot to death by the police or gets into a car accident, Killed by being hit or electrocuted by lightning."
"Then I'm going to blame everyone here."
