On this side, Peter Ho had just finished an exclusive interview with TVB's financial channel, with a barely perceptible hint of pride on his face.
The compliments from the host were still ringing in his ears, praising him to the skies for the "courage" and "foresight" he had demonstrated in Huo's new project.
Coupled with the frequent praise from his father Henry Fok in recent days, and the large pages in some Hong Kong tabloids that wanted to get Fok's advertisements deliberately portraying him as a "young pragmatic leader", Fok Chun-ting felt a little elated at the moment, and felt that he was standing at a small peak in his life.
He adjusted the cuffs of his Italian-made suit, then smiled politely at the TVB news director accompanying him. "Thank you all for your hard work. The show should be well-received. But it's still early, so I'd like to go see those beautiful women who are rehearsing so hard for the Miss Hong Kong finals. Just to express my consolation."
Upon hearing this, several executives smiled and exchanged glances, and everyone understood each other tacitly.
But his face was full of flattering smile towards Ho Chun-ting.
However, they are also very clear in their hearts.
Mr. Huo's excuse was too obvious. Everyone in Hong Kong knew that the only person Mr. Huo really wanted to "comfort" was Liu Rumeng.
The eldest son of the Huo family pursued Liu Rumeng so loudly and persistently, and his affectionate personality was known throughout Hong Kong, but unfortunately it had little effect on Liu Rumeng.
Except for those few times, Liu Rumeng barely managed to have afternoon tea with him.
In public, Liu Rumeng always maintained a sense of distance towards him, sometimes close and sometimes distant.
Anyone with a discerning eye could actually see that Liu Rumeng's mind wasn't on Young Master Huo at all, and it seemed like she was keeping him as a backup.
Regarding this point, the senior executives of TVB are quite impressed by Liu Rumeng, who can be so patient and keep the two top rich boys in Hong Kong firmly under her control, and they are willing to fall for her.
But in fact, bystanders are very clear that unlike Peter Ho, Liu Rumeng's heart has actually long been inclined towards the mysteriously rising Japanese businessman Kobayashi Tenmo.
However, bystanders see things more clearly than those involved. Ho Chun-ting himself has been happily indulging in this unrequited pursuit, stubbornly believing that he has not lost yet and that it is only a matter of time before the water drips through the stone.
However, for them, Peter Fok is the real money bag. Lam Tin Wong has been in control of Hong Kong Land for almost a month, yet he hasn't even invested in a single advertisement for TVB!
At this moment, they surrounded Huo Zhenting and walked towards the elevator.
After Huo Zhenting walked into the elevator, several young female assistants in the news department dared to start talking.
"Wow! Young Master Huo is so handsome. He exudes nobility and walks with such a graceful air!"
"That's right! That's right! What's even more rare is that a top-tier wealthy young man like him can be so affectionate and determined to marry Liu Rumeng. I really envy Liu Rumeng so much."
"Yes! I admire Liu Rumeng even more. Young Master Huo has condescended to personally invite her, but she still hasn't agreed to have a formal dinner with him."
…
However, when the female director of the news department heard their gossip, she sneered and pursed her lips at the young assistants who had just joined the TV station and were looking at Mr. Huo's back with admiration in their eyes.
Then he lowered his voice and said with a hint of worldly wisdom, "Your eyes are too shallow. You only see the surface. In fact... rich people are like this. The more they can't eat, the more precious they think it is."
Do you think Mr. Huo is affectionate? Humph, that's because you don't know his past reputation in Hong Kong Island. The word "playboy" is a compliment to him!
He's played with countless female celebrities and socialites, but he just covered it up when he was publishing the news. If he really gets Liu Rumeng, he might get tired of her the next day! Men are all like this.
The elevator went up silently, and Huo Zhenting's mood became more cheerful.
In particular, he thought of the recent downturn in the Hong Kong Land Group, including Kobayashi Tenmo, who had also disappeared from the news.
Apart from the "low-cost import of building materials" that caused a lot of hype at the beginning, the Japanese guy who took over the Hutchison Whampoa in a shocking way seemed to have disappeared from the world and could no longer make any waves.
Those "home ownership" projects of Swire Properties that sound very attractive may not be fully implemented so quickly.
After the initial hype, there's not even a trace of him left now! It's safe to say the hype has long been washed away by all the headlines in Hong Kong.
On the contrary, it is Ho Chun-ting who is now in a completely different situation than before and is in a very prosperous situation.
His father trusted him more and more, and delegated more and more power to him.
Not only did he successfully lead several new investments of the Huo family through carefully planned press conferences, but he also received deliberate support from the news media.
It can be said that Peter Ho has finally succeeded in washing off the label of "playboy" that he had been wearing for so many years.
Instead, he was given the coronation words of "young talent" and "the new generation leader of the Huo family", which really benefited him greatly during this period.
I came to TVB today to accept a news interview in order to further consolidate this image.
Moreover, he also wanted to show Liu Rumeng that not only Xiaolin Tianwang, but also Huo Zhenting was a brilliant figure, the focus of Hong Kong Island. He wanted to show her a completely new self.
The elevator slowly stopped on the eighth floor.
