Chapter 1076 Invasion at the National Level
Chapter 1076 Invasion at the National Level
Nine o'clock in the evening, Sai Kung, Pak Sha Wan.
After nightfall, the light rain on Hong Kong Island turned into heavy rain, a pouring chaos, and even the boundary between the sky and the sea became blurred.
Baishawan Villa, restaurant on the first floor, brightly lit.
The hot meals reflect the attractive color and aroma, and the long oak dining table is full of people.
Du Weiguo, the man with the golden sword, sat in the middle, Mo Lan and Zhao Yingnan sat on the left and right respectively, followed by Lu Yan, Lancelot, Joseph, Lake, Xiao Ma, Xiao Liao, and Mao Aiyi.
Even Nightmare and Yeli were on the table, sitting at the bottom of the table.
Those present were all Du Weiguo's closest people, each of them a big boss who could act independently. It was like a gathering of stars, but the atmosphere in the table was a little dull.
Originally, Zhao Yingnan and Mo Lan were very happy when Du Weiguo came back, especially Zhao Yingnan, who had been separated for a long time and suffered from lovesickness.
Moreover, New Year's Eve is coming soon. They have never spent New Year's Eve with Du Weiguo, so it is a rare reunion.
But because the "violent ghost" is killing people on Hong Kong Island at this time, it is equivalent to riding on everyone's head and shitting and peeing unscrupulously.
This rotten incident has left a sharp thorn in everyone's heart.
"Wesley, why don't we go to Pattaya? How about Hong Kong Island? Let's wait until after the New Year."
Before, they also knew about the identity of "Li Gui" as a person with extraordinary abilities and the speculation about Du Weiguo's conspiracy, so that's why Mo Lan said this.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yingnan immediately turned his head and looked straight at Du Weiguo, with a look of anticipation in his eyes.
Originally, according to her personality, she definitely didn't want to go to Mo Lan's territory, but Zhao Yingnan was quite tempted by this proposal.
In the words of later generations, Zhao Yingnan was a bit of a love-minded woman, and she was the type who loved to drink enough.
She doesn't care about fame or fortune. As long as she can stay with her lover, she would rather give up everything she has now and want nothing.
Facing a table full of delicacies, Du Weiguo, who had been hungry all day, had a rare lack of appetite.
He leaned back lazily on the chair, shook his head, and his tone sounded lonely and helpless:
"People are in the world and can't help themselves. How can it be so easy to leave? It would be fine if I didn't return to Hong Kong Island. If I leave now, it will make people feel that I am ignoring death and adding insult to injury.
Having said this, Du Weiguo lit a cigarette and exhaled the smoke in a long breath.
"By then, the rift between me and the four major families will become even greater, and it will even become clear that I am the mastermind behind the scenes."
After hearing what he said, Moran frowned with a somewhat contemptuous tone:
"Tch, let's just complain about the rift. These old guys may seem sanctimonious, but in fact, they are all villains who see profit and forget their own righteousness.
He doesn't take advantage enough, and when there are benefits, he can't kiss you well, he smiles all day long and can't even see his eyebrows, and if there is any slight disturbance, he will immediately fall out. "
Du Weiguo turned his head and rolled his eyes at her, signaling her to stop talking, but Mo Lan continued to spray regardless:
"What's wrong? Am I right? They kicked you out of Hong Kong Island without hesitation before. Why do you care about them now? Let them solve it themselves if they can."
Having said this, Moran still seemed to be dissatisfied. He sneered and complained with full force:
"Haha~ After all, aren't we just afraid that if our power continues to expand, it will eventually affect their own interests?
If you ask me, if I don’t stop doing the same thing, Megan and I will join forces and swallow them all up. I want to see if Hong Kong Island will collapse without them? "
After hearing what she said, Zhao Yingnan, who had always been resentful towards them, suddenly flashed his eyes and showed an emotional expression.
"Yes, I think it is feasible. To say that our existence has seriously affected the development of Hong Kong Island is obviously alarmism!"
"That's right, that's it, if you ask me, rather than raising tigers and causing trouble, it's better to take the opportunity to destroy them. When the time comes, we will directly monopolize~~"
Seeing Zhao Yingnan supporting her so clearly, Mo Lan was excited, and his beautiful fox eyes were bright.
However, her proposal was not a whimsical one. With the terrifying strength of her and Zhao Yingnan, if they really joined forces and deliberately targeted the four families, it would undoubtedly be a dimensionality-reducing blow.
It is estimated that except for Bao Xian, who can barely support it for a while due to the time required for shipbuilding, the other companies will be ruthlessly crushed in an instant, without any resistance.
Not even the business in Tai O is immune. Moran has ordered three new 3-ton ultra-luxury ships, which are expected to be launched in June this year.
At that time, all she needs to do is take the gambling boat to the high seas outside Tai'ao and get some real benefits, and all the gamblers will definitely flock there.
There is no doubt at all. Now that they are fighting for financial resources and cash flow, the four major families are not in the same dimension as them even if they are tied to everything.
"Okay! Please stop saying a few words."
Seeing that the two of them were getting more and more outrageous, Du Weiguo couldn't help but scolded:
"What are you two thinking? Even if Huo Xian and the others are really driven away, will you be able to monopolize Hong Kong Island? Become the king and dominate? It's simply a daydream!"
"Why not?" Moran frowned and asked with squinted eyes. She was still not convinced.
After twisting the burning cigarette butt into pieces, Du Weiguo gave her a hard look and emphasized his tone:
"Triss, give me a break. You are now so powerful that you can no longer tell the difference between friend and foe. Although Hong Kong Island is known as a free port, it has never been a terra incognita. This is England's territory.
Do you think that forcing me to leave Hong Kong is really the wish of Mr. Huo and others? Do you think that those officials in London will let me swallow Hong Kong Island in one go? "
Being snatched away by Du Weiguo, Mo Lan's eyes gradually became stunned, his brows furrowed, and he seemed confused but didn't understand.
She is indeed shrewd enough, far beyond ordinary people, but her knowledge is still limited and she is unable to analyze problems from a national level.
She also didn't realize that, unknowingly, although Du Weiguo was just one person, the power he represented had risen to a very terrifying national level.
And what he did on Hong Kong Island, the all-round encroachment, has been regarded by the English senior officials as a different kind of aggression.
Invasion at the national level!
Mo Lan, a very smart woman, thought about it along with Du Weiguo's thoughts and figured out the mystery almost instantly.
But she was still a little unbelievable, her brows furrowed tightly and her eyes widened:
"Hey, that's not the case, is it? Wesley, after all, let's just do some business and make some money~~"
Moran felt quite guilty when he said this, and he couldn't continue in the middle of the sentence.
Not to mention, under her own command alone, there are now thousands of well-equipped mercenary corps, Qingyishui fine weapons, and even the most advanced military helicopters and missiles, and the number is still increasing. .
To put it bluntly, as long as the Citi base in Pattaya does not take action, Moran's powerful armed forces can easily overwhelm the entire Siam.
This has gone far beyond the scope of ordinary businessmen. Pattaya now even feels like a country within a country.
That is to say, the Siamese government's military force is weak and its bones are weak. Otherwise, they would have broken up and fought each other.
The situation on Hong Kong Island is no less favorable. Zhao Yingnan also has a legally licensed security company with hundreds of armed elites. Over there at Zhongyi Hall, there are nearly a thousand armed forces.
In addition, the hundreds of thousands of dwarf mules who wield swords and guns in Hong Kong all regard Du Weiguo as their ancestor, and he is the only one who follows his lead.
And right now, how many British troops are there in total on Hong Kong Island? It's just a mixed brigade with only a few thousand people.
To put it bluntly, as long as Du Weiguo is willing, with an order now, Hong Kong Island can be transformed in an instant and become his meal.
If it weren't for Du Weiguo's powerful force and almost invincibility, Yingjili would have tried to kill him long ago.
Seeing Mo Lan's eyes rolling around, with a look of guilt on his face, knowing that she had probably figured it out, Du Weiguo snorted angrily:
"Have you figured it out? That's why I said that there is no distinction between you and me. Huo Xian and the others will always be our allies, but those foreign devils who come to Hong Kong Island to cut leeks with sickles are~"
"Ling ring ring~"
At this moment, the intercom phone in the living room suddenly rang, interrupting Du Weiguo's lesson.
Xiao Ma stood up very discerningly, walked over quickly to pick it up, and then looked at Du Weiguo with a strange expression:
"Mr. Wesley, Mr. Huo, Mr. Bao and the others are here, just outside the gate. They said they want to visit you." Du Weiguo seemed not surprised at all by their sudden visit and nodded very casually:
"Well, let them in."
After a while, the study room on the third floor of the villa, which was originally a spacious space, now seemed slightly crowded.
Huo Xian and other four bosses are here, as well as Huo Lili. There are five guests in total. On the host's side, Du Weiguo, Mo Lan, and Zhao Yingnan.
Each side holds its own, with clear distinctions, and a vague sense of tension. The atmosphere is cold and not too harmonious.
"Wesley, we forced you to leave Hong Kong Island before because we were not careful, acted too hastily, and had some selfish motives. We are very sorry."
After a long silence, the mature and steady Huo Xian took the lead to break the ice.
His tone was sincere and his attitude was honest. He didn't make any high-sounding excuses at all, but admitted his mistake very simply.
This is what makes him decisive as a top boss. He is able to make decisions when necessary. He can bend and stretch. At critical moments, he can put down his face without hesitation.
"Yes, Wesley, we did something wrong. You have always done good things for Hong Kong Island~~"
Someone started, and several other big guys immediately followed suit, and the scene became lively.
Du Weiguo was not incompetent. Once he had the steps, he quickly got off the slope and replied with a smile:
"Mr. Huo, gentlemen, what you said is embarrassing me. I understand that the previous incident was not your decision. You were just pushed out as a scapegoat. I understand. I understand."
Hearing what he said, Huo Xian couldn't help but feel relieved, and couldn't help but sigh, with a melancholy tone:
"Oh, don't mention it. We work as swordsmen and I work as fish and meat. We Chinese businessmen are struggling to survive in the cracks. It's difficult~"
Du Weiguo did not want to delve into this topic, and his tone was slightly perfunctory:
"Well, everything will be fine. Sooner or later, we will return to the embrace of our motherland and no longer have to rely on others."
"I hope this day comes soon."
Huo Xian nodded, his tone was distant, and his eyes were a little confused. He knew very well the current situation in the north, and everything was far away.
But he was not an ordinary person after all. He immediately suppressed his chaotic thoughts and changed the subject:
"By the way, Wesley, do you have any clues about this murderous murder case?"
Du Weiguo shook his head: "No, to be honest, this "fierce ghost" is really powerful. Now I am blind and have no clue."
"What? You can't even do anything? It's impossible! Are you the evil god? What if I need something~"
Upon hearing this, everyone was dumbfounded. Mr. Shao had just lost another employee today. At this moment, he was so upset that he couldn't hold his breath anymore, so he shouted out excitedly.
"Old Shao, shut up!"
However, he was only halfway through shouting when Huo Xian interrupted the crazy words he was about to blurt out with a dark face and a low voice.
He originally wanted to say that if there are any conditions required, just come up with them, but this is a heartbreaking statement.
The implication is that Du Weiguo is deliberately delaying and does not want to take care of it, and wants to let them fend for themselves, and even goes further. He is the mastermind behind this matter.
Huo Xian reacted quickly. After stopping Shao Xian, he immediately turned to Du Weiguo and explained with a slight urgency:
"Wesley, Lao Shao's business hasn't been going well lately, and he's been worried about this case recently. He's a little confused and talks arrogantly. Don't be the same as him."
Du Weiguo shook his head calmly:
"Huo Xian, you are serious. I have also heard about the situation that Shao Xian encountered here, and I have nothing to do with it."
Having said this, Du Weiguo turned to Shao Xian with a sincere tone:
"Mr. Shao, Megan was a little hasty in doing things before and acted on impulse. In this way, I will re-invest in your TV station with the original shares and the original price."
Upon hearing this, Shao Xian was immediately ecstatic, his eyes were so bright that he couldn't hold back his eyes. Because he was so excited, his body was trembling slightly and his voice was choked with sobs:
"Thank you, thank you, Wesley. I used to be a villain before. Thank you for being willing to help me regardless of your past grudges."
Shao Xian's excitement was not staged.
The TV station is an out-and-out money-swallowing beast. His capital chain is about to be cut off, and he can't even pay off the loan shark interest. He has already planned to sell the theater to extend its life.
Although Huo Xian and the others had helped him collect money before and temporarily solved his urgent need, they only treated the symptoms rather than the root cause and only drank poison to quench his thirst.
In addition, Huo Xian also promised him to invest in the TV station, but it was impossible to buy 40% of the shares in one go anyway, and the price was high, so he had to postpone his real estate project.
But Du Weiguo's investment was different. It not only solved all his financial gaps at once, but also gave him a protective layer of gold.
From now on, no one dares to touch him in Hong Kong Island.
Du Weiguo paused briefly and continued:
"Mr. Shao, you're welcome. In addition, Shaw Brothers will be responsible for the distribution of new films released by Kunpeng Pictures in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and Southeast Asia."
Although Zhao Yingnan felt a little uncomfortable after hearing Du Weiguo's arrangement, she still held back and turned her face away instead of refuting his face on the spot.
"Thank you, thank you, Wesley, I, I~"
Shao Xian was surprised and happy to be saved from a desperate situation and found again. His eye circles turned red all of a sudden, and he even felt a little grateful for the sudden appearance of this "evil ghost" murderer.
Du Weiguo patted him on the shoulder, said nothing more, and turned to Huo Xian again:
"Mr. Huo, I heard that you have been planning to develop the land in Wan Chai recently and want to build an office building. How about I take part? I will take all the shortfalls."
"Hahaha, that's good. With you, the God of Wealth, taking care of everything, I can relax and sleep well."
Huo Xian laughed heartily and spoke cheerfully, but then he realized something, frowned slightly, and asked hesitantly:
"Wesley, do you think this "evil ghost" wreaking havoc on Hong Kong Island is deliberately trying to sow discord between us?"
As expected of a powerful red-top businessman, Huo Xian was as sensitive as no one else. Du Weiguo secretly praised him in his heart.
"Well, I do have this consideration. This guy is deliberately creating confrontation, suppressing your industry on the one hand, and isolating me on the other."
Upon hearing this, the faces of several big guys present became solemn. He Xian frowned and asked tentatively:
"Is it the work of the English ghost guy?"
Before Du Weiguo could reply, Mo Lan, who had been silent all this time, shook his head and took the initiative to interject:
"Absolutely impossible. Although the British government is afraid of Wesley, it will never dare to provoke him. Besides, Hong Kong Island is their territory after all, and they are not stupid enough to kill the goose that lays the goose to lay the eggs."
Among the big guys present, Huo Xian and Bao Xian have both worked with Mo Lan and are quite familiar with each other. Even Shao Xian has dealt with her because of distribution, so it is not unexpected for Mo Lan to talk to her.
"This must be Miss Triss of Pattaya. I have admired her for a long time. She is indeed peerless in beauty and worthy of the title of Queen."
He Xian smiled and exchanged greetings with Mo Lan, his eyes were deep and slightly meaningful.
Moran, this woman, has a character that is neither advantageous nor early morning. The reason why she chose to pick a fight with him when he was talking was of course intentional.
Her gambling ship is about to be launched into the sea. Her ambition has always been strong. Her original intention is to completely monopolize the high-end gambling in Southeast Asia.
This kind of behavior will inevitably affect the business in Tai'ao to a certain extent, so they deliberately met each other.
Moran also laughed:
"Hello, hello first. I've long heard of your reputation as a gambling king. I also plan to set up two sampans to go to the sea for a little fuss. I don't understand many things. I hope you will take care of me in the future."
He Xian still had a smile on his face and said in a refreshing tone: "Haha, it's easy to talk, easy to talk, Miss Triss, let's take care of each other."
"Hey, okay, then I'll come and ask for advice another day. Okay, all the bosses, let's get down to business. I'm going on and on, and our heads should be unhappy."
Moran was very sensitive to Du Weiguo's eyes, ended the topic with a wink, and even made a joke.
Decent and humorous.
