Hong Kong Variety Show: Let you eat melons, eat melons on your sister-in-law

Chapter 267 "267" (Intensity)
This matter cannot be rushed, because it requires some groundwork before it can be accomplished.

Otherwise, if things are made too obvious and those foreigners in Australia see through it, then we're out of luck.

Therefore, Lin Yao and Lin Baixin are like two very patient hunters.

They kept creating situations where the two of them would have conflicts.

He has expressed his dissatisfaction with the other party on many public occasions.

They even fooled quite a few people.

People like Zheng Yutong all assumed that a conflict had broken out between Lin Yao and Lin Baixin.

However, neither Lin Yao nor Lin Baixin told anyone about this, since it concerned their plans and they didn't want too many people to know.

The two even kept their relationship strictly secret from those around them.

Seeing that the desired effect had been achieved, Lin Yao put the matter aside for the time being, allowing it to ferment further.

Let's see which side the Australian consortium will negotiate with first.

Lin Yao, on the other hand, became concerned about the Hailong ship that Ye Han had set up.

The Hailong is currently undergoing extensive decoration, and Ye Han has meticulously examined almost every detail.

The way the old man was doing everything himself showed that he was definitely holding his breath.

However, there was other good news coming from Macau.

Zhou Chaoxian really brought Lin Yao a huge surprise.

The guests from Yizhou that he brought alone directly caused Lin Yao's twin casino revenue to surge by 50%.

As for pumping water, there's not much to say; in just one month, the revenue approached ten million.

Although their income would definitely decline rapidly in the future, Lin Yao had someone analyze it and found that the monthly income of the travel company they ran alone would be around five million.

However, it wasn't just Lin Yao who profited; Zhou Chaoxian also profited.

He ordered a batch of gambling machines from Lin Yao and opened a business in Yizhou.

The income is also quite astonishing.

Zhou Chaoxian had previously tried to get into pachinko in Japan, but he failed because he couldn't adapt to the local culture and ended up losing a lot of money.

However, choosing to buy the fruit machine from Lin Yao was definitely the right decision.

The largest arcade in Zhou Chaoxian's territory has now become his cash cow.

Aside from dealing with some inspectors and incurring some expenses, there are also utilities and labor costs; otherwise, it's pure profit.

Therefore, Zhou Chaoxian planned to strike while the iron was hot and continue to open branch stores.

The number of gambling machines needed would be even greater.

Moreover, he wanted to learn from the operating model of Lin Yao's arcade, so he made a special trip to Hong Kong.

"Mr. Lin, you are truly amazing! How come I didn't think of that?"

Zhou Chaoxian was quite surprised to see the operating model of Lin Yao's arcade.

Because the game consoles displayed at Lin Yao's door were all legitimate game consoles and ordinary entertainment game consoles.

For example, things like basketball shooting machines are placed in the most conspicuous positions to attract young people who like trendy things.

As for the gambling machines, they were all placed at the back of the store.

When someone inspects the place, they can just tell those people playing gambling games to leave, and then they can shut down the fruit machines.

Lin Yao said with a smile, "There's nothing we can do, things are stricter in Hong Kong! But Mr. Zhou, I don't think your Yizhou has enacted any corresponding laws yet, right?"

“Indeed, not yet. In Yizhou, this is considered a trendy thing!” Zhou Chaoxian said with a frown. “However, there are indeed some people who want to boycott it.”

This matter indeed greatly angered Zhou Chaoxian, but he was not without options.

For example, before the government legislates, some members of parliament are bribed to draft the legislation.

After all, in Yizhou, some things are just that abstract.

Lin Yao spread his hands and said, "If all else fails, we can do it this way and be more discreet!"

“That is indeed a solution!” Zhou Chaoxian nodded. “I made the right decision to come to Hong Kong this time!”

After touring several of Lin Yao's arcades, Zhou Chaoxian spoke up directly, saying, "Mr. Lin, I need to order a batch of gambling arcade machines, and I also want to order some of these legitimate game machines. What do you think..."

Lin Yao said with a smile, "Gambling arcade machines are no problem, but for these legitimate game machines, I can only provide things like basketball shooting machines. The others are ordered from people in Japan."

“These Japanese are so greedy! They’re selling the machines at exorbitant prices!” Zhou Chaoxian said, frowning.

Lin Yao said with a smile, "Then wait a bit. I'm going to Japan in a while to talk to the local gangsters about these game consoles. They have pirated copies!"

"Really? That's wonderful!" Zhou Chaoxian immediately smiled.

After finishing their business, Lin Yao had someone show Zhou Chaoxian around the charm of Hong Kong.

After all, both sides can make money from each other, making them a good partner, and Lin Yao will not neglect him.

Zhou Chao was allowed to spend three days in Hong Kong before returning to Yizhou.

As for the situation in Haojiang, Zhou Chaoxian was quite satisfied and prepared to continue to increase investment.

This puts travel companies in a difficult position.    
Only Lin Yao can get his hands on this lucrative prize of Yizhou; no one else can get a piece of it.

However, He Xin was not one to sit idly by and wait for his fate. He directly recruited a local talent from Yizhou to help him manage this business.

This guy is Qiu Xiaochi.

"Mr. Qiu, this way please!"

The butler led Qiu Xiaochi to He Xin's reception room.

Qiu Xiaochi is still very young, but just by looking at his face, he doesn't seem like a good person.

"Mr. He!" Qiu Xiaochi bowed and greeted He Xin as soon as he saw him.

He Xin chuckled and gestured for Qiu Xiaochi to sit down: "You're here, have a seat!"

After Qiu Xiaochi sat down, He Xin inquired about the travel company.

Qiu Xiaochi knew why He Xin had come to see him, so he said to He Xin, "Mr. He, there is absolutely no problem with this matter! Zhou Chaoxian's sphere of influence and the people behind him are all in Taipei, but his influence in Tainan is not involved at all!"

"Although Taipei has more wealthy people, Tainan also has quite a few nouveau riche! We can definitely win these people over!"

He Xin's eyes lit up: "Oh, it seems you already have an idea?"

Qiu Xiaochi chuckled and said, "These bumpkins have never seen such a comprehensive service before. I don't think it should be a problem!"

Hearing Qiu Xiaochi say this, He Xin immediately laughed: "Good, young man, you have confidence! As long as you can attract enough customers, I don't mind giving you a share of the shares!"

"I can even hand over my casinos in some Southeast Asian countries to you to manage!"

Upon hearing He Xin's words, Qiu Xiaochi's eyes immediately lit up.

He had done his research and knew how much money travel companies in Macau were making lately.

If I could get a share of the company, I could live off it for the rest of my life even if I broke both my legs.

With the financial incentive, Qiu Xiaochi suddenly felt full of motivation.

Just as He Xingen and Qiu Xiaochi were discussing some details, Yu Lancan came over.

"Brother Can, Mr. He is in the reception room talking to someone. Please wait here for a moment!"

The butler said something to Yu Lancan indifferently, and left without even bringing him a cup of tea.

This made Yu Lancan feel quite aggrieved, as he hadn't received this kind of treatment when he visited the He family's old residence before.

However, there was no other way; his suggestion caused He Xin to immediately turn against Lin Yao.

Not only did they not earn much more, they also got themselves into a mess.

Ironically, the biggest benefits were won by that opportunistic Broken Tooth Giant.

He Xin was already being generous by not telling him to get out directly.

However, in Yu Lancan's view, things were not like that.

He felt that he had worked like a slave for He Xin for so many years, and even if he hadn't made any great contributions, he had still put in a lot of hard work.

Yu Lancan was naturally quite dissatisfied that he was being neglected over such a trivial matter.

Moreover, with He Xin finding someone like Qiu Xiaochi to replace him, Yu Lancan's dissatisfaction intensified.

Just as Yu Lancan was feeling annoyed, he saw He Xin walk out with Qiu Xiaochi, who was all smiles. He even escorted Qiu Xiaochi out the door.

Even Yu Lancan hadn't enjoyed this kind of treatment in a long time, which made his face even uglier.

"You're here? What's up?" He Xin's smile vanished as soon as he saw Yu Lancan.

Yu Lancan could only report the recent events to He Xin.

He Xin nodded and said calmly, "I understand."

Yu Lancan has already exhausted all his efforts in this matter concerning the travel company.

Finally, the accounts were settled for He Xinping, at least there were no further losses.

If managed properly, it can be beneficial for them in the long run.

However, He Xin felt that Yu Lancan was only trying to salvage the situation after the fact, which is why he acted rather indifferently.

Yu Lancan was extremely aggrieved and lost all respect for He Xin. After reporting the matter, he got up and left.

He Xin didn't try to stop him; he was already used to Yu Lancan.

He turned to the butler and asked, "Has that kid Lin Yao made any moves lately?"

The butler said with a smile, "The private investigator we sent out is following Lin Yao. This guy has recently clashed with Lin Baixin over ATV. They've been exchanging words and it's not unusual for him to do anything unusual!"

"Heh, making enemies everywhere, young people are just like that!" He Xin said with a laugh, "A greenhorn dares to talk tough to me, looks like I'll have to teach him a lesson!"

As he spoke, He Xin picked up the phone, dialed a number, and asked the other party to help Lin Baixin deal with Lin Yao.

So the next day, Lin Yao suddenly discovered that a lot of media outlets had suddenly appeared and started to smear him.

Lin Yao was a bit confused, not knowing why Lin Baixin had suddenly increased his intensity, so he immediately called to ask.
