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

Chapter 350: Is "350" more about throwing money around?

Li Ziyin, the owner of Fruit Daily, is no ordinary person either.

Like Lin Yao, he came from humble beginnings.

In his early years, he could only make a living by helping people carry suitcases.

He later smuggled himself into Hong Kong and only then did he slowly begin to rise in status.

This guy is highly educated; he even studied in the United States.

After returning, he founded the Second Weekly and Fruit Daily.

He frequently voices his opinions in the media and does rather crazy things.

He has messed with many important figures, including Li Huanggua.

“I suspect he has British backers!” Liang Xiaotang said to Lin Yao.

Lin Yao nodded: "It can only be the English. I'll make a call and ask."

Although the political department has not completely withdrawn from the stage, the English have already been secretly planting mines.

Fortunately, Lin Yao had direct control over Richard; otherwise, there would have been many things that Lin Yao wouldn't have understood.

After asking Richard, Richard said directly, "Boss, don't even think about it. This guy's boss is none other than the Governor of Hong Kong, Chris Patten!"

"Damn, they've got some big connections! No wonder they dare to be so arrogant!" Lin Yao said directly.

Richard laughed and said, "I reckon Chris Patten intends to support this guy as a mouthpiece for England. It would be quite difficult to get rid of him!"

Lin Yao snorted coldly and said, "Serving as a dog for the English, aren't you afraid of being skinned alive!"

Lin Yao vaguely remembered that Li Ziyin's final fate was not good.

However, that will be more than 20 years from now, and Lin Yao can't wait that long.

Once he bribes officials and increases his power, he will be even more difficult to deal with.

Richard said directly, "If the boss wants to deal with him, he'll have to start from somewhere else. Chris Patten will definitely protect this guy to the death!"

Lin Yao nodded; "So, connections in official circles aren't working anymore?"

“That’s right!” Richard shook his head and said, “The Citizens’ Party isn’t powerful enough to touch this guy!”

"Damn it, let him just disappear into thin air!" Lin Yao sneered. "There's a way to deal with thugs!"

“I can keep an eye on some of the people for the boss, but I can’t do anything more than that, it would attract attention!” Richard said helplessly.

Lin Yao originally intended for Richard to develop intelligence, and didn't plan for him to do anything unnecessary.

As long as there is enough intelligence, Lin Yao will naturally have a way to "prescribe the right medicine"!
After speaking with Richard on the phone, Lin Yao asked Su Xingbai, "What other forces are backing this guy?"

"The Number Gang and the Tung Sing!" Leung Siu-tong said directly, "Li Tsz-yin is very close to them!"

"Heh, just as I thought!" Lin Yao sneered.

Among the four major triads in Hong Kong, Sun Kei and Hung Hing were the quickest to surrender.

However, the relationship between the Number Gang and Tung Sing is not exactly good back in their hometown.

Even after their return, the number gang continued to cause trouble.

As for Tung Sing, it's simply because of its mainstay business, Happy Powder.

Leung Siu-tong continued, "Li Ziyin and his editors are all addicted to drugs and fantasies. Sometimes they even use their media identities to attract young girls who dream of becoming stars to come and drink with them."

"Once they're all high on their balls, they'll start imparting, and anyone who dares to resist will be forced into sex! I've heard they've already ruined quite a few girls!"

Upon hearing Liang Xiaotang's words, Lin Yao immediately thought of a good idea.

This way, Li Ziyin can disappear without a trace, and the English won't dare to make a big deal out of it.

Lin Yao thought for a moment and said, "How many private investigators do you have under your command right now?"

"There are probably dozens! Boss, what do you need these private investigators for?" Liang Xiaotang asked, puzzled.

Lin Yao said directly, "Didn't you say before that this guy likes to force himself on women? Then go find those victims and help me collect evidence. I'll need it later!"

"By the way, find out exactly who sent Li Ziyin to mess with me! I have no grudge against Li Ziyin, there must be a reason why he suddenly attacked me."

"I understand, boss!" Liang Xiaotang nodded and turned to leave.

"Boss, it's almost time!" Cheng Wenjing walked in and said to Lin Yao, "You need to talk to President Guo and Sister Judy!"

"Understood!" Lin Yao nodded.

Since Cheng Wenjing became his secretary, his time has been arranged perfectly.

Lin Yao felt much more relaxed, no longer worried about having anything left undone.

After picking up the clothes, he had Xiao Fu drive him to Tsim Sha Tsui.

Upon arriving at the Million Group, Lin Yao noticed that many people were looking at him with strange eyes.

This left Lin Yao speechless; the rumors were spreading way too fast.

Upon arriving at the conference room, Guo Shirong was not yet there. Tang Judy said to Lin Ya with a half-smile, "You're making a fuss about me, but you seem reluctant!"

"Isn't this because I'm afraid of affecting your image as the queen of the nightlife scene, Judy?" Lin Yao said with a smile.

"You're good at talking, but this Fruit Daily is disgusting. Don't you have any ideas?" Tang Judy teased Lin Yao, but she was also disgusted by his actions. Lin Yao sighed and said, "They have powerful backers. And they dared to mess with Li Huanggua and Zheng Yutong, do you think they wouldn't dare to mess with us? I can't exactly hire someone to kill someone, can I?"

"So what? What difference would it make if we killed him?" Tom Judy asked, puzzled.

Lin Yao said helplessly, "I've already told you, they have powerful backers. There aren't many people in Hong Kong who can afford to offend them!"

"That's awesome? Who is it?" Tom Judy asked curiously.

"Who else could it be but the Governor of Hong Kong!" Lin Yao shook his head and said, "I'll handle this guy. Let him swagger for a while!"

"Tsk, this isn't like you at all!" Tom Judy pouted and didn't say anything more.

Guo Shirong arrived quickly and teased the two of them as soon as he entered.

Lin Yao said irritably, "You'll be happy when Li Ziyin exposes it to you! Brother Guo, I know you're quite the player. If your daughter finds out, it might damage your image as a good father, right?"

"I was wrong, please forgive me!" Guo Shirong, a doting father to his daughter, immediately backed down and begged for forgiveness with his hands clasped together.

After joking around for a while, the three of them started discussing the land in Tsim Sha Tsui.

The Citizens Party's information is accurate; subway construction will begin soon.

One can imagine that the surrounding land prices will definitely skyrocket.

The three discussed the general direction and determined the division of labor among the three companies.

As for the details, those were naturally handled by his subordinates.

……

Meanwhile, in the chairman's office of Fruit Daily.

His subordinates were praising Li Ziyin.

"Boss, you're really awesome! After you got Shenxianyao, this guy didn't dare to utter a single word!" his subordinate said flatteringly.

Li Ziyin, flattered by his subordinates, said smugly, "I want everyone in Hong Kong to know that offending me, Li Ziyin, will not end well! I dare to mess with the four major families, let alone a nobody like Lin Yao!"

"But boss, ATV has announced that they will no longer cooperate with our newspaper!" the subordinate said with a headache. "Many advertisers have also withdrawn their investments!"

Hearing this, Li Ziyin's face darkened: "This Lin Yao dares to fight back?"

His men dared not speak, but it was clear that Lin Yao would not let this go easily.

Li Ziyin continued, "Which businesses withdrew their investments?"

"They're all our regular customers. We're just worried they'll get dragged down by us!" the subordinate whispered.

"Damn it!" Li Ziyin said coldly, "A bunch of cowards!"

"Call the paparazzi over here! I'm going to take him on today, let the paparazzi keep digging up dirt!"

"I refuse to believe that Lin Yao is that powerful!"

Although it was his subordinates who started targeting Lin Ya.

However, Li Ziyin heard from his assistant Mark that Lin Yao, in addition to cooperating with the Citizens Party, also seemed to have some cooperation with the mainland.

This led Li Ziyin to directly confront Lin Yao, preparing to take action against him.

Anyway, he has English and American backers, so there's nothing to be afraid of.

Soon the paparazzi arrived; they had clearly just sobered up and smelled strongly of alcohol.

However, Li Ziyin didn't care at all. He never cared about the state of his subordinates, as long as they could do things for him.

Moreover, Li Ziyin charged very high prices for leaking information to these "big shots".

These paparazzi will do anything for money.

"Boss, whose scoop do you want to expose?" the paparazzi asked with a smile.

Li Ziyin said with a sneer, "That guy you exposed yesterday, Lin Yao!"

"Keep digging deep into his dirt. Even if there isn't any, fabricate some!"

"Got it, boss, but this price..." the paparazzi said greedily.

Li Ziyin said calmly, "Don't worry, I won't treat you unfairly!"

"With your words of reassurance, we brothers can rest assured!" the paparazzi under his command said with a smile.

……

"Boss, paparazzi are following us again!" Xiao Fu glanced at the rearview mirror and said to Lin Yao.

Lin Yao frowned and said, "Is this guy surnamed Li going to keep this up?"

Xiao Fu said directly, "Boss, should we send someone over to handle this?"

"Isn't what he's relying on just these fearless paparazzi?" Lin Yao sneered. "I want to see just how fearless they are! Tell A Bao and the others to take a few of their underlings and follow them. Don't alert them. Once you catch them, beat them to death. It would be best to cripple their hands!"

"I'd like to see what they'll use to take pictures and leak information to people after they lose their hands!"

Xiao Fu nodded and said, "Understood, I'll inform A Bao and the others right away!"

"Hmm, remember to make it look good. Any reporter from Fruit Daily or Weekly 2 is within their reach!" Lin Yao sneered and said, "Notify the entire Wo Luen Shing company that I'll give a bonus for crippling one of them! Can you outspend me when it comes to throwing money around?"
