An expected yet slightly provocative air flashed across Lin Huowang's eyes. He raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh? Looks like the Huo family is officially declaring war on us!"
Gao Qiaohao reacted even faster and grabbed the remote control to turn on the large closed-circuit television in the corner of the office.
The TV screen lit up instantly.
The scene was exactly like the TVB news broadcast room, with the huge Huo Group logo temporarily inserted in the background.
In front of the camera, Ho Chun-soo was wearing a well-ironed suit, his face was ashen, and his expression was unprecedentedly gloomy and serious, even with a hint of deliberately created indignation and tragedy representing the "orthodoxy of Chinese business."
He held down his speech with one hand, and pointed his other hand tensely at the camera. His voice was clearly transmitted throughout Hong Kong through the microphone:
"...I, Fok Chun-ting, on behalf of the Fok Ying-tung family and all colleagues in the Fok Group, hereby solemnly declare!"
His voice was a little high-pitched because of his deliberate indignation:
"We, the Huo Group, as well as our fellow Chinese businessmen in Hong Kong, including the Bao Group and the Li Group, hereby solemnly announce this!"
"Considering Kobayashi Tenwang and all the conglomerates he controls, including but not limited to Longteng Newspapers and Hong Kong Land, in their recent series of stock market manipulations—disregarding business fundamentals and the interests of shareholders, profiting by stirring up trouble, inciting market panic, and sucking the years of hard work of countless ordinary Hong Kong citizens through despicable means—they ultimately seized control of Hong Kong Land in an extremely dishonorable manner!"
Huo Zhenting's tone became even more severe, with a hint of judgment:
"Such profit-seeking and unscrupulous behavior seriously violates the business principles of honesty, trustworthiness, mutual benefit and win-win cooperation! It has greatly damaged the reputation and foundation of Hong Kong's capital market!"
He took a deep breath, his gaze like a sharp blade piercing the raging forest fire outside the camera:
"Therefore, I officially declare: From this day forward, the Huo Group, from top to bottom, will sever all business ties with all affiliated companies under the name 'Xiao Lin Tian Wang'! This includes, but is not limited to, all ongoing contracts and potential future business collaborations! There is no possibility of any cooperation, past, present, or future!"
Huo Zhenting's voice suddenly rose and he said firmly:
"At the same time, we at the Huo Group are hereby calling on all upright Chinese entrepreneurs and business partners in Hong Kong to recognize this person's true face!
Let us join hands and boycott Kobayashi Tenmo and the capital forces behind him! We must prevent him from ever integrating into the Hong Kong business community that we all protect! Until he pays the price for plundering Hong Kong's wealth!
As the scenes switched, the camera captured the slightly bulging veins on Ho Chun-ting's forehead and his jawline stretched straight with effort when he made the statement.
The deliberately created sense of determination and indignation was instantly transmitted to thousands of households in Hong Kong Island via satellite signals.
