I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island

Chapter 89 The He Family Birthday Banquet

Looking at the invitation from the He family in his hand, Wu Guangyao fell into deep thought.

He Tung's 86-year-old birthday banquet invited Wu Guangyao to the banquet, and he couldn't refuse!

Anyway, he is also a representative of Chinese merchants, the head of the four major families, if he doesn't go, he might offend a group of people.

Ho Tung is the great-uncle of the later gambling king Stanley Ho. Although he is a mixed child of Dutch and Chinese descent, he often regards himself as a Chinese.

In the 1920s, the Hong Kong British government put a slogan on Victoria Peak, Chinese people and dogs are not allowed to live, this is a discriminatory slogan.

He Dong was furious, so he protested to the British Hong Kong government and proposed that he would live in Taiping Mountain.

The British Hong Kong government thought of his great contribution to Hong Kong Island, so he approved Ho Tung's request, and Ho Tung became the first Chinese to live in Baijiadao.

Today's Wu Guangyao, the status of Hong Kong Island is further improved, even if many Chinese businessmen see him, they will not trust him.

Anyone can see that Wu Guangyao must be the next rich Chinese businessman.

However, after all, the foundation is too shallow and the influence is too weak, so there is still a long way to go before these big families!

In Wu Guangyao's philosophy, making money is his top priority, and giving birth to cubs is the second priority.

A beautiful wife and concubine are married not only to warm the bed, but also to reproduce. How can the family be a polished commander!

 …

When Wu Guangyao brought Lin Yueru to the Peninsula Hotel, the scene was so grand that people thought it was the governor of Hong Kong.

"Who is that? There are four cars going in and out, tsk tsk, you look at those bodyguards with sharp eyes." The reporter squatting outside the hotel asked his colleagues.

"I'm new to the industry, so I don't even know about this. The one who often comes and goes in four cars on Hong Kong Island must be Mr. Wu Guangyao, the hottest tycoon right now. I heard that he was almost kidnapped in Macau once, and that's it when he came back!" The colleague said in an old-fashioned way, obviously very proud.

Hearing what his colleague said, the reporter became interested and said flatteringly, "Brother, I'll treat you to dinner another day, so tell me about the kidnapping."

Seeing this kid on the road, his peers are also very satisfied, and there is a feeling of being respected!

"I don't know much. I heard that five gunmen were directly planning to kidnap on the street. But I didn't know that they were shot by a group of people as soon as they pulled out their pistols. The marksmanship is accurate. The five kidnappers immediately , two people died, and the remaining three fled in embarrassment."

"You mean Wu Guangyao's bodyguards have guns? This is a big taboo. Does the Hong Kong government allow businessmen to have so many guns?"

"Who told you that it was Wu Guangyao's bodyguard who shot the kidnappers. It was another group of people, but everyone didn't know who it was, so there were rumors that Wu Guangyao had noble people to help him!"

Lie to the ghost, and help the nobles, I'm afraid it's a raised killer! The reporters thought in their hearts, but they didn't say it out loud. After all, there was no evidence for this.

Four Ford cars stopped at the entrance of the hotel, and the reporters all prepared to take pictures and pay their respects to Wu Guangyao's demeanor.

However, they were disappointed. A group of tall bodyguards quickly got out of the car and formed a row, blocking everyone's sight.

"Fuck, what a mess, shameless!" A reporter couldn't help but say.

"Be careful, you want to die, be careful of being assassinated!" The colleague kindly persuaded.

"No way! Was I too loud just now?" The reporter asked hastily, he was afraid, the rumors outside were amazing.

It is said that Wu Guangyao is very popular with the executives of the Hong Kong government, and he is walking sideways on Hong Kong Island.

The car door was pulled open, Wu Guangyao walked out, and then helped Lin Yue out of the car like a gentleman.

In the eyes of outsiders, the two are like a couple of gods and gods, with extraordinary temperament.

Behind Wu Guangyao's convoy, the driver in a bridge car complained: "Boss Wu's spectrum is too big, and it has already affected the boss."

The person in the back row said: "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry, young people, it's normal to like this scene, besides, others have this ability.

"

As soon as the two walked into the hotel, they discovered an interesting thing.

The later gambling king Stanley Ho (the grandnephew of Ho Tung) wanted to go up to greet Wu Guangyao and the two, but found that his second uncle He Shijian (He Tung's second son) was one step ahead.

Gambling king Stanley Ho was taken aback for a moment, not only thinking, am I not qualified enough?

At this time, the gambling king was only 27 years old, but he also founded a kerosene company and a foreign firm in Macau, which was considered a small achievement.

"Boss Wu, welcome. My humble servant, He Shijian, Sir He's second son." He Shijian introduced himself first. This time his father had his birthday, he specially called to see this new Chinese rich man by name. He couldn't neglect others.

Wu Guangyao was really flattered that the He family could walk sideways even in the mainland, yet they valued him so much.

Sir Ho Tung had helped Mr. Sun, the father of the nation, and had a good friendship with Mr. Jiang.

His influence is not only in the shopping malls. It is said that his wife and third son He Shili returned to Zhejiang to worship Buddha, and even the governor came to flatter him.

On Hong Kong Island, it is not just a businessman. It is said that he took the lead in supporting an artillery brigade of the Northeast Army to fight against Japanese pirates.

One can imagine how powerful other people's power is!

"Uncle Ho, this should be Brother Hongshen?" After a brief chat, Wu Guangyao took the initiative to ask seeing that Ho Hongshen was silent.

After all, He Shijian is 60 years old. Wu Guangyao doesn't have many topics to talk about, and he won't have much communication in the future.

However, gambling king Stanley Ho is only 27 years old, and Wu Guangyao wants to make friends seriously.

"Yes, it's my nephew Ho Hongshen. The two of you are about the same age and should be able to chat. Hongshen, take Guangyao to the lobby, don't neglect others and lose your manners!" He Shijian said, he could also see Wu Guangyao and himself There is no topic.

Under the leadership of Stanley Ho, Wu Guangyao and Lin Yueru walked into the hall and came to a table. It happened that He Xian and others were also there, so they were no strangers.

At this time, the hall was full of guests, probably around 500 people.

If Wu Guangyao's guess is correct, these 500 people are definitely the best of both political and business circles in Hong Kong and Macau.

"How about it? It's grand. Sir He Tung has always regarded himself as a Chinese, and he has won the respect of the Chinese. It is said that the downstairs hall has also been reserved today, and it will also be used as the venue for Sir He Tung's birthday banquet." He Xian said.

"Brother He, you are not bad, you are Sir Ho Tung of Macau." Wu Guangyao said casually, and several people at the same table agreed.

Wu Guangyao was right. During World War II, since Portugal was a neutral country, although Japan did not occupy Macau, it sent secret agents.

Macau, where there are many RB secret agencies, took the opportunity to block the incident in Macau because of internal strife between the army and navy secret agencies.

It was He Xian who went to negotiate and successfully rescued the siege.

He Xian even has the titles of "Chinese Governor" and "Shadow Cabinet" in Macau. It can be imagined that He Xian in Macau is indeed comparable to Ho Tung in Hong Kong Island at this time.

It's just that Macau is small, and its influence is not enough to be compared with Hong Kong Island!

"It's over, I'm not as good as Sir Ho Tung, I'm just warm-hearted and charitable." He Xian said modestly.

Wu Guangyao looked towards the hall. Not far away, Sir He Tung was sitting at the main table, and next to him was the Chief Secretary.

The chief secretary nodded towards Wu Guangyao, which immediately attracted Wu Guangyao's attention. It turned out that the rumors were true, and the Hong Kong government favored him.

Sir Ho Tung saw that the Chief Secretary was greeting someone, and asked quickly, "Could it be that the young man is Wu Guangyao, the newly-promoted wealthy Chinese businessman?"

"Sir He also knows about him. I thought you were taking care of yourself at home recently, so you didn't pay attention to these things!" the chief secretary said curiously.

He Dong's mustache was slightly raised, and he obviously didn't like the chief secretary's words.

"Why did the director say that? I'm still alive and well. I haven't passed on the business of the He family. I'm still in charge. How can I not pay attention to the affairs of Hong Kong Island!"

Ho Tung returned to Hong Kong Island from Macau after World War II. At the age of 82, he revived the family business. How could he be willing to be called old age?

Even if this person is the chief secretary, it doesn't matter, it's just so tough!

The Chief Secretary was not angry when he heard this, but instead said sorry. Although the old man in front of him is British, he claimed to be Chinese.

The old guy held a birthday banquet, and the Hong Kong government was very nervous. Looking at the guests in this hall, they almost gathered elites from both the political and business circles of Hong Kong Island Chinese.

In this way, how could the Hong Kong government let it go, so many people were arranged to come to pay respects to the birthday party, but they were actually monitoring it.

Of course, Sir Ho Tung is British after all, and the Hong Kong government also relies heavily on it.
