Meng Shaoyuan seemed to have become a person who was doing nothing all day long.
The problem is that the financial war is still going on. Not only does it have no intention of stopping, but it is intensifying.
Both Juntong and No. 76 tried their best, and all the good, bad and shameless methods were put on the table.
Today you kidnap my people, tomorrow I ambush your people.
Endless.
But looking at Meng Shaoyuan, he seemed to be fine.
It seems that the financial war has nothing to do with him.
Wu Jingyi reminded him several times, but Meng Shaoyuan didn't care at all:
"Financial war? I just have to do my own thing. If No. 76 kidnaps my people, I will kidnap their people. I have repeatedly reminded the superiors that the situation will develop in an uncontrollable situation, but the superiors do not listen to me. ah.
So what else can I do? Are you begging for help shamelessly? When the superiors got angry, they immediately dismissed me. I was not fucking worthy. As for me, I can just goof around like this. "
Wu Jingyi shook her head repeatedly.
She understood that Master Meng was heartbroken about Xiao Jiujiu.
Because of Han Yanyun's matter, he already had Wei Bingkuan and Gu Xichen in his hands. What he had to do now was to directly let these two people negotiate with Chongqing.
He is in Shanghai, he just needs to control the overall situation.
The severe situation in Shanghai was also reported to Chongqing as soon as possible through Wei Bingkuan.
Also reported at the same time was a report jointly written by four banks in Shanghai:
"People in the city are extremely panicked. In addition to caring for the dead, rescuing the injured and providing arduous support to continue business as usual, they are also begging for instructions to deal with the situation."
How will Chongqing deal with it?
No one can know.
Within two days, Wei Bingkuan and Gu Xichen came to Meng Shaoyuan's office again.
"Ouch, are you two here?" Meng Shaoyuan, who was playing with a nine-link ring in his hand, said:
"Do you two have any instructions today?"
"At 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the Board of Directors of the Silian General Office held an emergency meeting in Chongqing on the order of the Chairman of the Committee to discuss contingency plans. This was also the first emergency meeting held after the establishment of the Fourth General Office. The emergency meeting was chaired by Kong Xiangxi Minister Kong personally presided over it."
As soon as he sat down, Wei Bingkuan said: "The meeting formulated several policies. First, regarding the business policies of the Four Banks in Shanghai, colleagues in the Four Banks are required to not avoid difficulties, stick to their positions, and operate as usual to fulfill their responsibilities in serving the country and society. We also asked the Ministry of Finance to make a statement to calm people's hearts. At the same time, in order to properly deal with and prevent risks before they occur, we asked the four banks in Shanghai to try to tighten their deposits..."
Wei Bingkuan carefully introduced the decisions passed at the meeting, and then said: "The people in the city are extremely panicked. In addition to caring for the dead, rescuing the injured and struggling to support business as usual, they are still begging for instructions on how to deal with the situation."
Put simply.
Meng Shaoyuan muttered in his heart.
"In terms of diplomacy, the Nationalist Government will request the British and American embassies to continue to exert pressure to strive for the early release of the kidnapped persons." Wei Bingkuan paused and then continued:
"The mission of the Shanghai District of the Military Command Bureau is to first try to rescue the kidnapped personnel with cameras nearby, and at the same time send personnel to comfort the families of the kidnapped personnel."
"Rescue? How do I rescue?" Meng Shaoyuan's attention seemed to be all on the nine-ring chain in his hand: "I spent a lot of effort on the last rescue, how many people did I get back?
The only way is to continue to increase the intensity of kidnapping, increase the bargaining chips in our hands, and strive for the next negotiation. However, both sides are waiting for the other to speak first, which means that both sides need a suitable step to step down. "
Both sides need a suitable step down.
At present, both sides are close to the limit of endurance.
As more and more people are kidnapped, more and more bank employees are resigning. Once there is no one in the bank, no one can bear the losses.
It's nothing more than a lose-lose situation.
The Chongqing government doesn't want to see it, and the Wang puppet regime doesn't want it to happen either.
And more importantly, the Ministry of Industry and Industry has gradually lost patience with the endless assassinations, bombings, and kidnappings targeting the banking industry.
They repeatedly issued serious warnings to both parties.
Now, the Wang Puppet regime hopes that the Chongqing government can take the lead in ending such a bloody war, and then they can also end it by taking advantage of the situation.
However, Chongqing continues to tolerate it!
"I understand the government's difficulties." Meng Shaoyuan suddenly sighed and finally put down the nine-link ring in his hand: "The longer this matter is delayed, the better it will be for stabilizing the government's finances.
The key point is that the government is determined to endure, but do the four companies in Shanghai have the perseverance to persevere? When all the presidents and general managers become polished commanders, what else can they do? "
Gu Xichen was silent for a moment: "Just do your best."
"It's done, I won't embarrass you anymore." Meng Shaoyuan picked up the nine-ring chain in his hand again: "You do your thing well, and I'll do my thing here."
"Director Meng." Wei Bingkuan looked a little anxious: "Resignation reports from the four industries in Shanghai are coming one after another. It seems that people are about to leave. The top priority now is to stabilize the hearts and minds of these people. "
"I said I knew it."
Meng Shaoyuan began to focus all his attention on the Nine Links: "You go back and do your work first."
…
"What should I do?" Wu Jingyi asked as soon as she walked into the office.
"How many people have we kidnapped?"
"One hundred and forty-seven people."
"Where's No. 76?"
"Two hundred and fifteen people from four groups in Shanghai were tied up."
"Not too bad."
Meng Shaoyuan pondered for a moment and said: "Suspend all assassinations, explosions, and kidnappings!"
"pause?"
"Pause." Meng Shaoyuan said with certainty: "Actually, the Wang Puppet side is almost exhausted, but if we don't give up, they will have no way to stop. The two sides can only continue like this in a stalemate, both of them are biting the bullet.
Everyone knows it, but no one wants to say it out and show weakness. Let's stop first, but if they give a hint and Wang Puppet sees it, he will naturally stop. Everyone maintains a delicate balance. "
Wu Jingyi asked curiously: "This is not like your style, you will take the initiative to make concessions."
"I can't help it, this not only involves us." Meng Shaoyuan said with a wry smile: "So many innocent people were involved, how many people were ruined and their families were separated?
We can tolerate it, but these people can't. They still have to live and support their wives and children. In the bank, there is danger all the time. Are they willing to continue? If it were you, would you be willing to continue? "
Wu Jingyi fell silent.
"Stability, stability." Meng Shaoyuan stood up with some annoyance: "Something has happened, and we need to be stable. Come on, we just wipe others' butts. Let's go."
"Where to go?"
"Go help those gentlemen wipe their butts!"
