Chen Rou first meets Nie Zhao because of an anti-terrorism case involving Hong Kong's wealthy elite. He is the richest man in Hong Kong for many years, and a renowned powerful figure. Even thou...
If Song Yuanchao weren't so dense, he should be the one to come up with a way to create a chance encounter.
He was upright and his image was so radiant it was beyond redemption, but his work skills were simply too poor. So Chen Rou had no choice but to trouble Liang Lisheng. It was hard on Old Master Liang, though, as the offshore sand quarry had recently started construction and he had been overseeing the business at sea. It must have been really tough for him in the freezing cold. Chen Rou wanted to see him, but she didn't have any gifts to bring. Just then, she saw Uncle Ming coming in from outside carrying two bags of cigars, so she asked, "Where did these come from? Are they useful? Can I use them?"
“Chairman Leung of TVB bought it during his trip to Brazil. It was originally for the master…” Uncle Ming pondered.
Chen Rou took it and said, "Then tell him that I took the things to Uncle Liang."
She went downstairs as she spoke, and because she walked so fast, Uncle Ming couldn't keep up.
What Uncle Ming wanted to say was that Nie Rong would also give Liang Lisheng things like cigars, but he would give him a small amount at a time, because Liang Lisheng would smoke as many as he could, and his wife and elder brother would not care, so he would smoke himself to death.
However, Chen Rou ran too fast, so Uncle Ming had to take out his phone and call her to tell her.
...
Chen Rou waited for Liang Lisheng to return at the logistics port belonging to the Nie family next to Victoria Harbour.
She wasn't used to sitting in the car, so she sat behind a container to cool off. About five minutes later, she heard Liang Lisheng's distinctive, aggressive, and exasperated voice: "Wade, you guys are too bold!"
Wade said, "Chairman Liang, you need to be more confident. Although they are outnumbered, they will eventually win. And when they win, we can take over the ports along the Philippine coast, which is a huge business opportunity."
"They only have 50 people. A mere 50 people trying to wipe out the pirates who have been entrenched along the Philippine coast for over a hundred years? That's no joke. Ha, even if those 25 ships are sunk, exploded, burned, or gone," Liang Lisheng said.
Wade said, "Please trust them, and trust the Boss's judgment. His investment will not be wrong."
"I'm going to find my older brother, I refuse to believe it..." Liang Lisheng was angry because Nie Zhao had donated 25 boats to a group of police officers fighting bandits in the Philippines. These were high-performance, combat-ready vessels. The bandit-fighting team only had 50 people, while the area was teeming with pirates, the entire population of which was pirates. They were impossible to eradicate. Although he had handed over the boats today under pressure from Nie Zhao and Wade, he was furious and wanted to complain to his older brother. But then he thought about it, and realized that his older brother couldn't control his son either. Ugh, he was so angry. But he had finished his cigar. Ugh, he was so frustrated.
Seeing a cigar being handed to him, Liang Lisheng chuckled: "Ah Rou... Third Aunt is so kind!"
Wade's Mercedes was not far away. His driver had already opened the car door. He nodded to Chen Rou, turned around and left. Chen Rou smiled and said, "Uncle Liang, even Master Dong and Master Er believe in the mainland. Why don't you believe in them this time?"
Liang Lisheng didn't not want to believe it; it was just that the situation was too complicated.
The international police officers who came from the mainland were particularly outstanding. In just a few months, they not only figured out the forces on the island, but also wiped out most of those entrenched on the island. The rest were all driven to the sea. However, they were not so good at the sea, because as everyone knows, the pirates have the golden leg of the Stars and Stripes, and their strength at sea is extremely strong.
Those international police officers are openly fighting pirates, but secretly they are also clashing with the Union Jack. Can they win?
Anyway, Liang Lisheng didn't think highly of them.
He led Chen Rou into an office, and when she handed him a box of cigars, he frowned: "Just one box?"
If Uncle Ming hadn't reminded her, Chen Rou would have given him a bag. But since Uncle Ming had reminded her, she brought a box instead. Suddenly, she noticed a whole new perspective and asked, "Uncle Liang, are there many business opportunities along the Philippine coast?"
“Of course, otherwise why would we be so reluctant to give up the Union Jack and the Stars and Stripes and station troops there?” Liang Lisheng said with a smile, “But whether it’s the Union Jack or the Stars and Stripes, it can occupy land, but it can’t revitalize the economy. If we really want to revitalize the economy, we still have to rely on the people of Hong Kong. Unfortunately, we are weak in the military field and can’t get it.”
There aren't many locals in Hong Kong. Everyone comes from all over the world, and of course, they've all fought their way up from various industries. They're all shrewd and know exactly how to make money.
"Are you worried that there aren't enough international police officers? Have you ever thought about helping them out?" Chen Rou asked.
Liang Lisheng clapped his hands: "We've already given so many boats, how much more can we help?"
But then he suddenly stopped, looking at Chen Rou as if he were seeing her for the first time: "You are the eldest daughter of Kowloon."
When Chen Rou saw that he was about to order a cigar, she took it from him and handed him a glass of mineral water.
Liang Lisheng asked again, "How have you been thinking about it lately? Have you made your choice? Which company are you planning to join?"
Chen Rou's words left Vice Chairman Liang, who was usually known for his unsteady gait on Hong Kong Island, speechless. She said, "Uncle Liang, only children make choices. Adults want it all."
Liang Lisheng rushed over to his Pajero, pulled on the door, then turned back: "You really are..."
He clapped his hands again: "Even one old fox would be enough to give you trouble. You're too bold to play with two at the same time."
Yes, Chen Rou didn't want the bloodshed in Kowloon to be endless, nor did she want either of the two old men to die. In her opinion, Nie Rong, who ate all sorts of tonics every day and spent his days either in temples or Taoist monasteries cultivating his mind, deserved to die much more than the two of them.
She wanted to resolve their conflict and also wanted those gangsters to use their fighting energy where it was needed.
She said, "Uncle Liang, please help me out. Let's turn the two gangs' swords against each other and make them unite against a common enemy. We'll take it one step at a time, but the ultimate goal is for them both to live to 97."
