Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings

Chapter 988 0973 [Rich and inhumane]

"Who is speaking?"

"What's the meaning?"

Everyone followed the sound and looked.

But I saw the fashion guru Karl Graffi standing up at some point.

"It turns out it's him!"

"Who did I think it was!"

Everyone looked at it and shook their heads slightly.

Guan Jiamei showed disdain.

Karl is indeed a leader in the fashion industry and a future boss, but that only belongs to the fashion industry.

What's more, Karl has a strong appeal to girls who love beauty and vanity, but for men -

There were so many male guests at the scene, many of whom were leaders in the industry. Karl might be stronger than ordinary people, but compared to capital consortiums like them, he was not good enough.

"Although he is known as a fashion master, he is still a tailor after all!" The old lady shook her head and sighed.

"Yes, the portion is a bit light." Guan Yuejun, the eldest son of Guan, shook his head.

The others also spoke.

“The fashion world in Paris may be awesome, but this is Hong Kong!”

"He is a star among designers!"

"Yeah, I really think I'm great, some kind of super big shot!"

Everyone shook their heads.

After hearing this, fashion master Karl was immediately angry. He was about to refute, but he seemed to have thought of something, so he sat down calmly.

This is Mr. Du's woman, mocking him for being okay, mocking Mr. Du's woman, haha...

Karl seemed to see what would happen next.

Guan Jiahui didn't expect that Karl would stand up for her, but when she saw Karl sitting down, she still expressed her gratitude to him.

"Thank you, Mr. Karl! I know how you feel, and I am extremely grateful for your help!"

"It doesn't matter Miss, I just did what I should do! As for these short-sighted guys, I won't care about them!" Karl snorted and looked disdainful at everyone. "Just wait and see, there will be a good show later!"

The posture is so neat and tidy.

Guan Jiahui didn’t understand what Karl meant.

Guan Jiamei, who was at odds with Guan Jiahui, said reluctantly: "Aha, are there any important figures from our Jiahui side who are not here? The banquet has already started. Those who are supposed to come have already come, and those who don't come are here. It’s no use! It’s really shameful that there are still five people and six people here!”

"Hahaha!"

Provoking a round of ridicule.

Guan Jiahui looked ugly.

Father Guan Yueshan and mother looked even more embarrassed.

The old lady shook her head again: "What are you doing? We are all a family, why should we go too far?"

Guan Yueqing, the second eldest brother, said hurriedly: "My family is telling the truth, there really aren't many people here with my third brother!"

"Yeah, not even enough!" Guan Jiamei not only didn't know her mistake, but also continued to sarcastically say.

At this time——

The door of Guan's house was pushed open with a bang.

A group of bodyguards in black suits rushed in and lined up.

The old lady of the Guan family was startled and was about to scold her.

Suddenly a powerful and majestic voice sounded outside.

"What about me? Is it enough?"

Following the sound of voices, a spirited old man walked in from outside with a group of people.

When they saw the person coming, the scene immediately exploded.

"How is that possible?"

"Am I dazzled?"

"The famous leader of the Huo family, Huo Yingdong Huo, is actually here?"

"That is...his eldest son Huo Zhenting?"

That’s right!

Appearing in front of everyone at this moment is Huo Yingdong, the most low-key and domineering man in Hong Kong, with the most powerful family power, Huo Yingdong, and his eldest son Huo Zhenting!

Seeing the appearance of this super boss, everyone was stunned and shocked for a moment.

Mr. Huo! ! !

This is Hong Kong’s top rich tycoon! !

The giant in the industry! ! !

He has countless nicknames——

"Airship Tai"!

"The Tsar of Hong Kong"!

But what is most talked about is his title of "Red Top Businessman"!

Mr. Huo started running boats at the age of fifteen. He controlled the airship and sailed across the Hong Kong River, and he was proud of his loyalty!

Especially in the 1950s, because he helped smuggled drugs from the mainland, he was willing to go bankrupt. For this reason, he was suppressed by the British Hong Kong government. The real estate projects he had taken were snatched away, and the orders that originally belonged to Huo's company were forced to withdraw. The Huo family almost went bankrupt during the auction.

Compared with those unscrupulous businessmen who secretly sell expired pills and defective products needed for daily life to the country under the guise of helping the country, Mr. Huo has been loyal and courageous all his life, and he has warned his descendants all his life that we are the descendants of the dragon!

It was also because of his patriotic spirit that the mainland finally gave the Huo family full power to take charge of the sand trade there.

If you want to engage in real estate, you must use sand, which is not available in Hong Kong and can only be imported from the mainland. The Huo family relied on its sand and stone monopoly to slowly rise again and stand at the top of the Hong Kong rich list.

Mr. Huo is now very low-key. He not only resigned from the position of president of the Chinese Entrepreneurs Association, but also resigned from the position of director of the Macau Entertainment Company.

In addition, he strictly prohibits his children from engaging in businesses that are harmful to society. They do not engage in casinos, financial loans, or investment companies, and they do not make money by selling projects.

It can be said that Mr. Huo is a living coordinate in the current Hong Kong business community, a businessman of the highest character, even now the more active CEO of Cheung Kong Holdings Li Jiacheng, the three giants of Henderson Land, Li Zhaoji, Guo Desheng, shipping king Bao Yugang, and jewelry king Zheng Yutong Wait, they are not as good as him in terms of practicality, character, and virtue!

As for Huo Zhenting, the eldest young master of the Huo family who followed him, although he was not as good as me in terms of business ability, he was obedient enough and never caused any trouble to the Huo family.

Most importantly, Huo Dashao has also done many dazzling projects in recent years, such as teaming up with Hengchuang Real Estate to develop the construction of Times Square, and teaming up with Phoenix Pharmaceuticals to enter the research and development of new drugs.

These are still secondary. Now Mr. Huo has formed a football team, named "Dragon Team", and is preparing to show off his talents in sports.

This is how he prepared and did this, especially when he led the Hong Kong "Dragons" to participate in the Asian Football League three months ago and came out on top!

The Hong Kong football team became the most dazzling star team on the scene, and Mr. Huo also became a man of the hour in the sports world.

A young master like Mr. Huo is many times better than those young masters who are just waiting to die and those young masters who are living and drinking.

Young Master Huo followed his father, Mr. Huo, into Guan's house. He glanced at the guests and the young men at the table. Although he said nothing, his eyes were full of fun, as if to say, what kind of party did I think it was? It turned out to be a group of thugs. guy.

All the young men lowered their heads and remained silent, not daring to look directly.

Compared with Mr. Huo, they are really just the underlings!

For example, Mr. Zhu's family is in the electronics business. The annual profit of seven to eight million in Hong Kong is already very impressive. In fact, compared with the size of the Huo family, it is simply a small fishing boat compared to an aircraft carrier. There is no comparison. !

Mr. Zhu was very proud of himself when he spent one million dollars to buy a luxury car.

Young Master Huo directly spent tens of millions to form a football team, just like playing, how can he compare?

This is not a level at all!

After all, Young Master Huo came from a wealthy family. Although he was disdainful in his heart, he did not show it at all. He had to have the mind and demeanor of a wealthy family, so he smiled at the young masters one by one to express friendship.

Seeing this, those young masters who originally lowered their heads and dared not look directly raised their heads and showed flattering smiles.

Especially Mr. Zhu, Zhu Shilun, had the most caring and flattering smile. In that way, whenever Mr. Huo opened his mouth, he would immediately run over and kneel down to lick her.

Of course, Mr. Huo doesn't like this either.

His father, Mr. Huo, often taught him that he should be modest and prudent in life and be low-key and practical in doing things.

In full view of everyone, Mr. Huo did not pay a direct visit to Mr. Zeng of the Guan family. Instead, he brought Mr. Huo directly to Guan Jiahui and said pleasantly: "Little girl, today we are here to congratulate you on your coming-of-age ceremony. We don't have any gifts to give." I’ve prepared some gadgets for you!”

Mr. Huo clapped his hands——

Someone immediately came forward and held out a gift box.

Guan Jiahui looked at the gift box and didn't dare to reach out to pick it up.

Mr. Huo laughed and said, "The little girl is really kind-hearted! Since this thing is for you, just accept it! Now, since I'm here, I have to say hello to your elders!"

After saying that, Mr. Huo led his son towards Old Mrs. Zeng and others.

Looking at this scene, Guan Jiamei stood there blankly, her eyes twitching, and the other juniors present were also shocked.

"Brother Huo actually came to celebrate Guan Jiahui's coming-of-age ceremony? And gave him gifts?" More than one person was shocked.

"Oh my god, the Huo family is one of the most prestigious families in Hong Kong. Why would a big shot like Mr. Huo come to congratulate Guan Jiahui on her coming-of-age ceremony?"

Guan Jiajun, Guan Jiahui and others were shocked and confused.

Only the second master of the Guan family, Guan Yueqing, frowned slightly, guessing whether it was related to the third brother Guan Yueshan. After all, the third brother had also been famous before. As a Shaw Brothers star, it was not impossible to meet someone like Mr. Huo - but the problem was, Now that he is no longer popular, why does Mr. Huo still give him face?

"It's so weird. Mr. Huo is a very low-key person, but he actually came forward in person this time!"

"Yeah, not only is it weird, it's also scary!"

At this time, something felt wrong in the lobby.

"Is there some big shot behind that little girl from the Guan family? Is Mr. Huo here for him?" someone speculated.

"It's very possible! Otherwise it really doesn't make sense!" Everyone nodded.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Guan Yueqing.

Guan Yueqing was also confused. How did he know that there was a big boss behind his niece? But before, my niece had a boyfriend who seemed to have some energy. He was able to invite that ghost guy named Carl to make clothes for her——

Could it be him again?

impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

Guan Yueqing shook her head vigorously.

He wouldn't believe it even to death that his niece's boyfriend could be so capable and invite someone like Mr. Huo over to support him.

"If that's the case, shouldn't I, the uncle, kneel down and lick her?" Guan Yueqing shook her head, feeling that such a thing would never happen.

Just as he was thinking wildly, Mr. Huo had already walked up to Mrs. Zeng. Mr. Huo did not bow to salute, but just cupped his fists slightly and congratulated: "Hello, Mrs. Zeng, congratulations on your birth." My dear granddaughter! I apologize for disturbing you this time!”

Although Old Mrs. Zeng is old, she is not a fool. She knows very well who the other party is. Compared with the other party, the Guan family is nothing, so how can they dare to stand up? She hurriedly smiled and said: "Mr. Huo, what are you talking about?" , you can come to this humble house and make it shine! I'm not happy enough, haha!" I looked very happy.

"That's good. There are still a lot of things to deal with here, so I won't stay any longer!" Mr. Huo then greeted Guan Yuejun and others simply and politely, and then left with a smile.

Comes and goes like the wind.

This is Mr. Huo’s way of doing things.

Act vigorously and resolutely, go as soon as you say,

Use your time in useful ways.

Looking at Mr. Huo leaving, everyone calmed down. What is going on? Why do you feel like you came here just to give that little girl Guan Jiahui a coming-of-age gift?

After giving the gift, you immediately leave. This style is really...

Too much.

"Is it really Mr. Huo, the head of the Huo family? Why do I feel like an actor from where?"

Guan Yueqing, the second master of the Guan family, muttered.

Although his voice was low, it was just enough to be heard by everyone in the lobby.

Mrs. Zeng immediately turned pale and snorted coldly: "Although my eyesight is dim, I can't recognize the wrong person. I know very well what Mr. Huo is like!"

It took a lot of effort to get up close and personal with this legendary super-rich man, and he was even greeted by Boss Huo. This was enough for the old lady to brag about for a lifetime. How could he allow his son to undermine him?

"How can a big boss be like him? Giving a gift to a little girl and then leaving after giving the gift?" Guan Yueqing retorted.

"Okay, no need to say more." The old lady said in a deep voice.

She also had doubts in her heart. Everyone present rarely interacted with such a super important person. Now he came to congratulate her granddaughter on her coming-of-age ceremony. This was really unreasonable and a bit like a fantasy——

"Jiahui, what gift did Mr. Huo give you? Let us see." Guan Jiamei asked nonchalantly.

Everyone's eyes instantly focused on Guan Jiahui again.

Guan Jiahui was in a daze. She had never actually met Mr. Huo, but she just guessed that his coming here was related to Du Yongxiao.

But if the guess is wrong and the other party just recognizes the wrong person and randomly sends a gift, then she will really become a joke.

"That's right, Jiahui, Mr. Huo is a super tycoon in Hong Kong. It must be extraordinary to come and give gifts." Guan Yueqing also echoed her daughter.

Seeing many Guan family members and guests in the hall looking over curiously, Guan Jiahui knew she could not refuse.

"Forget it, just die." Guan Jiahui gritted her teeth and opened the gift box in front of everyone.

Inside the exquisite gift box, there is a folded piece of paper.

"Huh? What is this?"

"Haha, why is it holding a piece of paper?"

Everyone couldn't help laughing.

"Wouldn't it say, Congratulations to Miss Guan on her coming-of-age ceremony?"

"Don't talk like that, etiquette is too light on people's intentions!"

"Hahaha!"

Everyone couldn't help laughing anymore.

Guan Yueqing and her daughter Guan Jiamei looked even more proud. It took them a long time to get just a piece of paper. They thought that Mr. Huo was so generous!

Just when everyone was mocking, Guan Jiahui took out the piece of paper, looked at it carefully, and immediately said in surprise: "This is -"

Some people couldn't help but come forward——

I was immediately surprised.

Someone else came forward and was equally stunned.

Anyone who read that piece of paper felt as if their acupuncture points had been tapped, and they stood there stupidly, motionless.

At this moment, the whole hall was very strange.

Guan Yueqing and her daughter Guan Jiamei couldn't bear it anymore, "What the hell is it that surprises you like this?"

The father and daughter looked at-——

Then they froze!

That's not a greeting card at all, but a house deed!

Causeway Bay!

Thousand-foot mansion!
