【新唐人2013年09月06日訊】李嘉誠拋售大陸資產 王石示警
最近,亞洲首富李嘉誠相繼拋售旗下的香港、和大陸資產,並大舉買進歐洲產業,引起外界諸多猜測,李嘉誠「逃離香港入駐海外」的傳言也頻頻出現。
9月4號,大陸知名企業家、萬科集團董事長王石,也在他的新浪微博上發帖說:「精明的李嘉誠先生在賣北京(廣州)、上海的物業,這是一個信號,小心了!」
王石的示警,引發眾多網友的討論。
北京的「班固讚」回應說,這不僅僅是個信號了,應該說是個開始,李家出售的房產,如此大的規模,本來就足夠撬動整個市場了,同時市場信心也因此而改變。
大陸律師張孟勝也表示,李嘉誠看來不尋求最高點出售資產,而是在到達頂點前的一刻出售。樓市難道真的要崩盤?
山東一企業主管則認為,李嘉誠撤資可能還有政治因素。
還有其他網友認為,這是李嘉誠預見未來社會動盪的可能性增加,因為社會動盪是富人最大的敵人。
據《鳳凰網》報導,最近一個月,李嘉誠旗下的「長江實業」以及「和記黃埔」相繼宣告,將拋售百佳超市、和上海陸家嘴東方匯經中心OFC寫字樓,以及廣州西城都薈廣場和停車場,涉及金額約為410億港元。
中石油涉誤導投資人 美國被告
據《法國國際廣播電臺》報導,美國一家律師行,日前在紐約南區的聯辦法院起訴中石油,指控他們沒有及時披露多名高層因貪污而被當局調查的訊息,涉嫌誤導投資人。
這家名為Pomerantz Grossman Hufford Dahlstrom & Gross的律師事務所提出的集體訴訟,代表了所有在去年4月26號至今年8月27號期間,通過美國預託證券形式購買中石油股票的投資人。官司要求中石油 作出賠償,但索償的具體數額還不清楚。
北京律師呼籲撤銷劉虎案
大陸《新快報》記者劉虎,因實名舉報中共高官,被北京市公安局以「尋釁滋事」的罪名刑事拘留,劉虎的代理律師周澤和斯偉江,呼籲北京警方撤銷劉虎案。
據《法國國際廣播電臺》報導,9月4號,北京律師周澤、周立新和王甫,也對媒體表示,指控劉虎造謠傳謠和尋釁滋事的罪名都是無法成立的。
他們分析說,調查記者的網上舉報和網路造謠傳謠是有本質區別的,調查記者是在行使中共憲法規定的公民監督國家機關和國家工作人員的權利,警方應該根據調查記者舉報的證據,展開全面調查,而不是打擊舉報人。
目前,劉虎仍被羈押在北京市第一看守所。

Li Ka-Shing Pulling Out of China Sends Signals
Recently, Asia’s richest man Li Ka-shing, has sold
his properties in mainland China and Hong Kong.
He has actively invested in Europe.
Li’s move has aroused a lot of speculation.
It is rumored that he “exits Hong Kong to go overseas".
On September 4, Wang Shi, China’s renowned
entrepreneur, posted on his micro-blog.
Wang said:"Shrewd Mr. Li Ka-shing is selling his properties
in Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai.
This is a signal, and pay attention."
Wang’s message has provoked a heated discussion
among netizens.
A Beijing netizen posts, “This is not just a signal.
it is exactly a startup.
On such a large scale, Li’s real estate sale suffices to
shake the housing market and the market confidence."
Lawyer Zhang Mengsheng, says that “Li Ka-shing
does not seem to seek the biggest profit.
Rather, he has sold the assets before the housing prices
reach their peak.
Does it mean that the housing market
is going to crash? “
An entrepreneur in Shandong Province thinks Li Ka-shing’s
exiting China may be influenced by political factors.
Some other netizens commented that “This suggests that
Li Ka-shing has foreseen increased risk of social unrest.
Social unrest is the biggest enemy of the rich."
Ifeng.com website reported that in the last month,
Li Ka-shing’s companies have announced selling real estate in the mainland.
These include ParknShop supermarket chain, Shanghai’s
35-story Oriental Financial Center building,and Guangzhou’s
Metropolitan Plaza and its parking lots.
The assets are worth
about 41 Billion Hong Kong dollars.

for corruption by the Chinese authorities.
The lawsuit was brought by law firm, Pomerantz Grossman

Lawyers Appeal To Withdraw Charges Against Whistleblower
Journalist Liu Hu
China’s journalist Liu Hu has been detained in Beijing,
charged with “creating troubles and provocation “.
Liu had blew the whistle on a high-ranking official
over the internet.
His lawyers are now appealing to Beijing police officials
to withdraw the charges against Liu.
On September 4, Radio France Internationale quoted
three Beijing-based lawyers.
They said that the official charges against Liu
are groundless.
They argued that an investigative reporter’s
online whistle-blowing is essentially different from spreading rumors.
The investigative reporter is practicing constitutional
watchdog rights, and the rights of a civil servant.
The lawyers note that the police should have launched full
investigations based upon the whistleblower’s evidence.
Instead they are punishing him.
Liu Hu is now being held in Beijing First Detention Center.
