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

Chapter 271 "271" - A Trip to Eastern Europe, an Encounter with Chen Jiaju
Thompson was furious when he heard Lin Yao admit it so readily, and he reached out to grab Lin Yao's collar.

But who is Lin Yao?

Thompson, at most a tall, older white man, how could he possibly be his match?

He grabbed his arm and slammed him hard to the ground.

Lin Yaocai straightened his clothes and said calmly to Thompson, "Thompson, I advise you to calm down. This is my company, and don't forget what I do!"

Thompson was indeed blinded by anger, and he was there to solve a problem.

And he was indeed dumbfounded; Lin Yao was a gangster, for crying out loud.

If he were to start a fight, wouldn't he be asking for trouble?

Thompson's eyes instantly became much clearer.

Although Lin Yao threw him hard, he was not seriously injured.

This actually made him much more sober.

Seeing the security guards rush in, Lin Yao waved his hand dismissively and said, "It's nothing, all of you, get out!"

The security guard glanced at Thompson, then closed the door for Lin Yao.

After the security guard left, Lin Yao spoke again, "Alright, I won't pursue this matter. What exactly did you want to do here?"

Thompson gritted his teeth and said, "I admit defeat. Name your price!"

"One price, four hundred million!" Lin Yao lit a cigar and said to Thompson with a smug smile, "If you agree, we can sign the contract today, and the money will be transferred within a week!"

Lin Yao's offer was already very reasonable; it didn't even result in a loss for Thompson's shares.

But for these capitalists, earning less means losing money.

Upon hearing the offer, Thompson couldn't hide the pain on his face.

However, he really has no other choice now. If the parent company's cash flow dries up, he will also suffer.

At that point, it won't be something that money can solve.

Moreover, the price of 400 million that Lin Yao offered was not arbitrary.

It was formulated after investigation by his subordinates' industrial spies and based on information collected by private investigators.

This price will allow Thompson to weather this crisis, but it won't make things too easy for him.

Basically, its main purpose is to disgust people.

Thompson was well aware of just how thoroughly he had lost this round.

Even his underwear was exposed, and the amount of money was just within his means.

If it were any less, he might as well hand over his shares to the bank for auction.

So after hesitating for a moment, Thompson compromised.

He called his lawyer and began signing a contract with Lin Yao's lawyer.

In just one morning, the two sides reached an agreement.

Next, Lin Yao only needs to take this contract to change the shareholding.

"But boss, why not take all the shares?" Dong Weiguo asked, somewhat puzzled.

"While you were away, I signed a supplementary agreement with Lin Bai!" Lin Yao said helplessly. "Coco signed it, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get away with it!"

Dong Weiguo nodded: "I see!"

"But boss, in that case, your shareholding is still lower than Lin Baixin's!"

Lin Yao said calmly, "That's a matter for later. First, get those foreigners out of the game, then I'll have my way with Old Deng!"

After hearing this, Dong Weiguo knew that Lin Yao already understood, so he didn't say anything more.

The 36% stake held by the Australian consortium was divided into two parts and then handed over to Lin Baixin.

Lin Baixin readily arranged for the money to be transferred to Lin Yao, and the matter was considered closed.

In the following days, ATV issued a notice stating that the change in shareholding was due to another change in ownership.

There have been some changes in the company's senior management.

These subtle actions clearly show that Lin Baixin is somewhat impatient.

"Ah Yao, about ATV..." Lok Wai-ching asked Lam Yiu curiously.

Lin Yao waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about ATV's affairs. Just do your job normally and don't get involved in their conflicts!"

"Huh?" Yue Huizhen asked, puzzled, "Then why did you buy the shares?"

Lin Yao said with a smile, "Of course, we'll watch him build a tall building, watch him entertain guests, and watch his building collapse!"

Lok Hye-jung was filled with questions and felt her intelligence had been insulted. She threatened fiercely, "You little brat, are you trying to play riddles with me? Speak up!"

Lin Yao was both amused and exasperated, having finally found a line he could use to show off.

However, he had chosen the wrong person; Lok Wai-ching, that fiery little woman, wouldn't tolerate Lin Yao's behavior.

Lin Yao could only explain, "I just want to see him cause trouble. He'll soon bring down ATV himself! Then I'll come out and deliver the fatal blow!"

Yue Huizhen said thoughtfully, "Recently, many mid-level key personnel in the company have resigned... Could it be related to you?"

"Guess!" Lin Yao said with a smile.

"So that's what you did!" Lok Wai-ching gasped. "You're really ruthless! You're trying to make it impossible for ATV to operate normally!"

As a long-time employee, Lok Wai-ching is considered part of ATV's middle management.    
They quickly realized what Lin Yao was planning to do!

Lin Yao said with a smile, "No destruction, no construction. If we don't let them mess up ATV to the point of collapse, how am I supposed to deal with those high-ranking executives at ATV? These people are the real trouble!"

"You're so cunning!" Yue Huizhen was a little scared after hearing this, but she quickly became smug again, hugging Lin Yao's neck and saying proudly, "As expected of the man I chose!"

Lin Yao chuckled mischievously and said, "Then your man needs to do something manly now!"

"You bastard, not in the office!" Lok Hye-jung exclaimed in terror.

……

After acquiring ATV's shares, Lin Yao did not participate in ATV's operations.

Instead, they deliberately had some senior executives contacted.

This made Lin Baixin very proud, believing that Lin Yao was doing useless work.

However, Lin Yao had already turned his attention away from ATV; he had other things to do.

For example, the itinerary to the Soviet Union.

"Boss, are we going to the Soviet Union?" Tian Yangsheng and the others were somewhat surprised.

Lin Yao nodded: "The arms business is currently short of supplies, so I'm planning to try my luck in the Soviet Union."

"I heard that the Soviet Union is having a huge weapons sale! How can I not join in on such a good thing?"

Hearing Lin Yao's words, Tian Yangsheng nodded: "Indeed, although the Su country is quite chaotic right now, quite a few people still go there to try their luck."

Lin Yao nodded: "Come with me. Anyway, you're in charge of the arms business."

Tian Yangsheng and the others naturally had no objections, since there was indeed a shortage of goods in Hong Kong at the moment.

However, before leaving, Lin Yao went to find several food processing plants and several cargo ships.

The Soviet Union is currently lacking many things, especially food and daily necessities, which are quite scarce.

This thing might be even more useful than US dollars now, so Lin Yao made some preparations in advance.

After everything was prepared, Lin Yao boarded a plane bound for the Soviet Union.

Just as he boarded the plane, Lin Yao spotted a familiar figure in the aisle.

"Ka-Kui!" Lin Yao looked at Chen Ka-Kui in surprise: "What are you doing on this plane?"

"Ah Yao?" Chen Jiaju was also quite surprised.

Since the last incident, after being promoted and receiving a raise, Chen Jiaju has been sitting in the office and rarely appears on the front lines anymore.

After all, he's getting older, and he's about to marry Amei.

We can no longer blindly rush to the front lines.

After the two sat down, Lin Yao asked curiously, "You... have a mission?"

Lin Yao noticed that Chen Jiaju's eyes kept glancing at a Russian girl, and he asked her curiously.

Chen Jiaju lowered his voice and said, "There is indeed a mission, but it's just surveillance!"

"Interpol suspects this woman has illicit funds, and it was the Americans who asked us to cooperate!"

Lin Yao asked with some curiosity, "Once you leave Hong Kong, the CIA has plenty of people. Is it really necessary for you to go there in person?"

Chen Jiaju said speechlessly, "That's what I said too, but Uncle Biao told me that the CIA is afraid there are spies among their own people, so they specifically asked someone like me, who is unrelated, to be followed!"

"They said the airfare was all-inclusive and the accommodation was free, but they actually put me in economy class."

After hearing Chen Jiaju's description, Lin Yao immediately knew that this was the plot of Police Story 4.

It seems this incident even involves nuclear weapons.

Lin Yao wondered if he could also get involved?

However, Lin Yao quickly dismissed the idea, as the risk was simply too great.

At that time, I estimate that spy organizations such as the CIA, MI6, and KGB will all take turns to get involved. As someone who has just extended his reach to Southeast Asia, it's best not to get involved in this matter.

Taking too big a step can easily lead to trouble.

I'd better stick to honestly discussing arms deals.

"Then I wish you success in your mission! Call me anytime if you need anything!" Lin Yao said with a smile.

"Thank you for your kind words!" Chen Jiaju suddenly said to Lin Yao somewhat nervously, "By the way, Amei and I are planning to hold our wedding in the second half of the year, Ayao, what do you think..."

Lin Yao said with some surprise, "You've achieved enlightenment?"

"Yes!" Chen Jiaju said shyly, "Amei has agreed to marry me!"

"Don't worry, brother, I'll definitely be there! Save me a seat as a best man!" Lin Yao said with a smile.

Hearing that Lin Yao agreed without any hesitation, Chen Jiaju's face immediately lit up with a bright smile.

After all, everyone knows that Lin Yao is now one of the top bosses in Hong Kong.

Let alone a mere chief inspector like him, even a chief superintendent might not be able to get a word in with Lin Yao.

Lin Yao not only agreed to attend the wedding, but also planned to be his best man, which shows that their friendship was not affected by their different statuses.

Lin Yao said with a smile, "I'll tell Zhenzhen about it later, she'll probably be even happier!"

Chen Jiaju nodded: "No problem!"
