Singapore, the Yang family.
Eleanor, who had a chance encounter with Ma Zhichao at the hotel a few days ago, was chatting with her husband Yang about Ma Zhichao.
Eleanor: "Honey, didn't you say you were going to see Ma Zhichao? Why haven't I seen you these past few days?"
Yang took a sip of tea and said, "It's not appropriate to meet Ma Zhichao..."
Eleanor: "Why?"
Yang: "Because Ma Zhichao's identity is not very clear, the people above don't like people like him coming."
Upon hearing this, Eleanor seemed to be deep in thought.
Yang: "Originally, I was just guessing, but today, I happened to hear a message saying that Singapore does not welcome Ma Zhichao."
Eleanor was shocked: "It's Lee?"
Yang nodded: "Yes."
Eleanor frowned immediately.
To be honest, the Yang family still retains relatively traditional northern customs, such as Spring Festival couplets, dumplings, and traditional festivals.
But that Li kept emphasizing the West, the West, the West!
In Singapore, only the Lunar New Year is a public holiday; there are no holidays for other festivals like Qingming, Dragon Boat Festival, and Mid-Autumn Festival. Furthermore, that Li has been trying to remove the Lunar New Year holiday from the list.
Chapter 386 Can't Afford to Offend? A Head-to-Head Response!
at this time,
On the other side, a seaside manor,
Another major Chinese family is the Huang family.
The Huang family can be considered the real estate kings of Singapore (from Putian).
In Orchard Road, the most bustling area of Singapore, the Wong family owns two shopping malls (Far East Shopping Centre and Good Fortune Shopping Centre), as well as a large number of office buildings and residences.
It can be said that the Wong family is the king of Orchard, just like the Lee family is the big landowner in Causeway Bay.
"Dad, I recently heard that a remarkable person has come to Hong Kong Island. He took advantage of the financial crisis to seize several large companies. He's coming in with great force."
Huang Tingfang nodded: "I've already heard about it."
Huang Tingfang, the head of the Huang family, possessed exceptional vision and founded the Far East Organization, which made him the real estate king of Singapore.
Moreover, he was once the richest man in Singapore.
"I'm quite familiar with this Ma Zhichao. He's a big shot in both the underworld and the legitimate world in Hong Kong. Even Li Huanggua and Kadoorie suffered a great loss in front of him."
As a big name in the real estate industry, Huang Tingfang greatly admired Li Huanggua and had exchanged ideas with him on many occasions. He also owned a real estate company in Hong Kong called Sino Land, though it was just a small-scale operation.
Therefore, he had heard of Ma Zhichao before.
Son Huang Zhida: "I heard a rumor that the higher-ups want to prevent Ma Zhichao from coming to Singapore."
Huang Tingfang chuckled lightly: "No need to say more, it must be that Li."
Huang Tingfang did not quite agree with Li Guangyao. He said, "You can consider yourself a Singaporean, and I also consider myself a Singaporean, but you can't disown your ancestors." Huang Tingfang was very disdainful of Li Guangyao's behavior of not returning to his hometown to pay respects to his ancestors.
While the father and son were talking,
At that moment, the butler walked in.
"Sir, there is a man outside who says he is representing the boss, Mr. Ma Zhichao, and has brought a visiting card, hoping to have a meal with us."
"Ma Zhichao?"
Huang Tingfang and his son exchanged a glance.
Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.
"Let him in."
Soon, Tian Yangsheng entered, led by a maid.
"Mr. Huang! I am Tian Yangsheng, Mr. Ma Zhichao's assistant!"
Huang Tingfang's expression changed, and he greeted him with a warm smile: "Mr. Tian Yangsheng, I have long admired your name!"
As someone who has been to Hong Kong Island, I have naturally heard of the Umbrella Corporation's reputation and know that Tian Yangsheng is not just an assistant.
The two shook hands warmly!
Huang Tingfang said enthusiastically, "I have been to Hong Kong Island several times and have long heard of the Umbrella Corporation. I have been wanting to meet Mr. Tian Yangsheng for a long time."
After exchanging pleasantries, Tian Yangsheng got straight to the point, inviting Huang Tingfang to have dinner with the boss, Ma Zhichao.
"no problem!"
Huang Tingfang nodded and smiled: "As the host, why don't you come to my house tonight for a family dinner?"
He knew Li Guangyao's implication that made it difficult for Ma Zhichao to move an inch in Singapore.
However, Huang Tingfang, as the former richest man, is now quite powerful, and he is not afraid of the Li family.
……
……
That night,
Ma Zhichao arrived at the Huang Family Manor, accompanied by Huang Tingfang's two sons.
"I heard that Mr. Ma also owns an umbrella company in San Francisco?"
"Small business, haha~~"
“That’s no small business, and I think Mr. Ma Zhichao has a good relationship with Mayor Davis, and the city police chief Bob…” To be honest, Huang Tingfang was very surprised, even envious, that Ma Zhichao was able to run a protection company in San Francisco, USA, and do so successfully.
That's the United States!
Huang Tingfang weighed his options. If he went to San Francisco, he'd be lucky if he didn't get beaten up, let alone run such a dangerous protective umbrella company.
Ma Zhichao smiled and said, "It's alright, it's alright... If Mr. Huang wants to do business in San Francisco, I can help."
Huang Tingfang was delighted: "Thank you, Mr. Ma."
The joy of accident!
Who wouldn't want to earn US dollars in the US?
After another round of polite exchanges...
Ma Zhichao finally revealed his purpose and asked about the problems he had encountered in the past two days: "I recently wanted to invest in Singapore. At first, things went quite smoothly, but in the last two days, I've encountered all sorts of problems. Either I can't reach an agreement with my boss, or I'm stuck with the government... I'd like to know why? Could you please give me some guidance, Mr. Huang?"
Huang Tingfang smiled and recounted Li Guangyao's story.
Upon hearing this, Ma Zhichao immediately broke into a beaming smile: "Li Guangyao, right..."
Unexpectedly, it was the Singapore Li family who were behind this.
Seeing the boss's smile, Tian Yangsheng knew the boss was very angry.
Although the Li family holds absolute power in Singapore, who is the boss? The person who stirs up the world's affairs, Li Guangyao is nothing.
Huang Tingfang naturally knew Ma Zhichao's style; he was extremely domineering and a local tyrant in Hong Kong, where even high-ranking officials and wealthy tycoons had suffered in front of him.
We'll definitely have to confront this Li family.
However, Huang Tingfang still led Ma Zhichao to his study and then solemnly introduced him: "The Li family in Singapore can be described as local tyrants. From the founding of the country to the present, he has been in power. The entire government is full of his protégés and former officials. He has tentacles in all those state-owned groups, and in the hearts of the people, his prestige can be said to be supreme."
Ma Zhichao nodded.
He was very clear about this.
In later generations, Li Guangyao served as a senior advisor until 2015. His eldest son became the second-generation leader, and his second son became the general manager of the largest state-owned enterprise.
What does this mean? The entire continent of Singapore resembles the Lee family's shape.
This demonstrates his power and status.
Ma Zhichao smiled and said, "Don't worry, I, Ma Zhichao, have always been kind to people. I will definitely make friends with such an important person."
Huang Tingfang looked at Ma Zhichao's expression, which did not seem to be feigning.
However, he didn't believe that Ma Zhichao's personality would allow him to swallow this insult.
The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves immensely at the banquet.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Huang!"
"Haha, it's my honor to be friends with Mr. Ma!"
I bid farewell and left.
……
The Huang family is hosting a banquet for Ma Zhichao.
Not long after, Li Guangyao learned of the news and immediately turned cold.
"Huang Tingfang!"
This is clearly a case of not taking me seriously.
……
the other side,
hotel.
Ma Zhichao returned to the presidential suite.
"Ah Sheng, what's the situation internationally right now?"
"The United States is now sending a large number of aircraft into Iraq and bombing it continuously. However, after being hit by the firepower of the United States, Iraq has also suffered great losses to its air force, having already destroyed three military bases."
What about public opinion?
"In the East and Central regions, people are mostly criticizing the United States, while in the United States and Europe, they are mostly promoting a just war. As for the information we released about the US military bombing civilians, it was not seen in the US and European news; it was blocked."
"So, the US is still very strong... Take this opportunity to cause trouble inside the US... I heard that the Li family's daughter is in the US, kidnap her..."
"no problem……"
