"They are going to follow Li Jin all the way. They have suffered such huge losses, and every family has shaken their own foundations, and they have to lift Li Jin up. I think these old guys are all crazy.
Damn it!" Xu Chongshan cursed in a low voice full of resentment.
Li Yaokang glanced at Xu Chongshan, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised in a very subtle and difficult to detect arc.
He knew why Xu Chongshan was so angry.
In the just past election of the Hong Kong City Business Federation, Xu Chongshan lost his seat as a member of the Federation.
The Federation was established decades ago, dating back to when Hong Kong City was still under the jurisdiction of the Eagle Kingdom.
At that time, Hong Kong City copied the system and model of Eagle Country. In order to facilitate the management of the increasingly prosperous business community in Hong Kong City, Eagle Country established this organization under the Hong Kong government.
From its establishment to the present, this organization has always had the top families in Hong Kong serving as committee members. It can even be said to be a clear recognition of the top families by the Hong Kong government.
Only by becoming a member of this committee can one be qualified to call himself a wealthy family.
But in this election, Xu Chongshan lost the committee seat that the Xu family had held for fifty years.
Although this is only a nominal honorary seat, the more wealthy and distinguished a family is, the more it needs this.
After all, the Hong Kong City is no better than the Mainland, with a vast land and rich resources. The Hong Kong City is simply too small, and its economy is ridiculously developed, so the competition among wealthy families is also very high. The importance of being low-key here will be forgotten.
The current situation of the Xu family is not optimistic, and they are being squeezed out by Hong Kong City. It would be a ghost if they could feel better.
Seemingly sensing Li Yaokang's sarcasm, Xu Chongshan turned around and asked with a half-smile: "I haven't seen your old man for a long time. I heard he went to recuperate?"
Li Yaokang was stunned, narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "The old man is old and has been recuperating for more than a year. Normally, nothing important would disturb him."
Nowadays, the deepest foundation of these top families is not necessarily money and power, but the living old man in the family.
As long as the old man is still here, the family will remain standing and nothing big will happen.
Why is it that the Huo family is so prosperous that even among the top wealthy families in Hong Kong City, there is an aloofness?
It's because the old man of the Huo family is still here.
And even among the old men, the old man of the Huo family is definitely the top one.
The old man of the Li family, Li Wanji, has indeed been in poor health in recent years. Especially after the Li family was isolated, the old man's health plummeted instantly and he is still lying in the hospital.
Although the doctor said that there is no danger to his life for the time being, as he gets older, everyone can feel that the old man's life is slowly passing by, and it is only a matter of time until his final day.
And such things must be kept absolutely confidential in the family, but there is no airtight wall in the world. No matter how confidential it is, if the old man has not come out for a long time, it is a fact that caring people like the Xu family will eventually notice some clues.
"That's right. The old man is getting old. It's better not to bother him with these troubles." Xu Chongshan said with a half-smile.
"By the way, I know a medical team. They are the world's top expert team in treating myocardial failure. Do you want to introduce them to you?"
As soon as these words came out, Li Yaokang's expression tightened, and then he turned his head and looked at Xu Chongshan coldly.
If it is normal for the Xu family to know that the old man is in poor health, then it would be a bit outrageous to know that the old man was hospitalized this time because of myocardial failure.
Someone in the hospital or in the family must have tipped off Xu Chongshan.
"Director Li, don't look at me like that, I'm just being kind."
After realizing that he had stepped on Li Yaokang's red line, Xu Chongshan took a step back and said with a smile.
After all, they are collaborators who are about to cooperate, so there is no need to make the relationship too rigid.
Li Yaokang obviously thought so too. He slowly looked away and said, "We'll be there soon. If you have anything to say, you'd better stay in front of Li Bancheng and say it."
The convoy entered a villa in heavy rain, and under the eaves of the main house of the villa, Li Bancheng personally greeted and waited here.
The car door opened, Xu Chongshan and Li Yaokang got out of the car, and Li Bancheng greeted them with a smile.
"You two have come from afar, welcome."
Li Yaokang smiled and stretched out his hand, held it tightly with Li Bancheng, and said, "I have been looking forward to this meeting for a long time."
Xu Chongshan also followed Li Yaokang and shook hands with Li Bancheng, smiling and saying: "Brother Li, how are you doing these days?"
When he said these words, Li Bancheng's smile froze for a few tenths of a second.
Even Li Yaokang looked at Xu Chongshan as if he were a fool.
What's going on with this old guy today? His mouth is full of nonsense.
Waving his hand, and taking advantage of this gesture to loosen the hand he was holding with Xu Chongshan, Li Bancheng said: "If you read more newspapers, you will know that my recent life must not be very good, and I will soon become the laughing stock of the whole world."
"Heroes also make mistakes. This small difficulty and obstacle is nothing. I believe that Uncle Li will be able to get through this incident safely." Xu Heng came up and said.
Li Bancheng laughed and said, "Thank you, Ah Heng, for your kind words."
"Everyone, it's windy and rainy outside. Let's go in, sit down and chat while drinking tea." Li Kai found a gap between words and said with a smile.
After a group of people entered the house, they exchanged a few words, and Li Bancheng took the initiative to say: "Everyone, I invite you to come over. We all know the reason. Now to put it in a harsher tone, it is difficult for me to return home to Hong Kong City."
, and the current situation of the two of you is not very satisfactory, right?"
Li Yaokang said expressionlessly: "Now those families are surrounding the Huo family. They are huddled together and walking all the way to the dark side. They want to support Li Jin to the end. They have forgotten that our Hong Kong City is the most powerful economy in China."
As a developed place, without our investment, how could the mainland develop so fast in the past two years?"
"They are trying to kill the donkey!"
Xu Chongshan frowned slightly and said: "Yaokang, be careful, we are only targeting Li Jin and have nothing to do with other people. Don't amplify the conflict."
Li Yaokang also realized that his complaints were a bit excessive, so he took a sip from his tea cup and stopped talking.
Li Bancheng saw this scene in his eyes, smiled, and said: "I think Yaokang is right in what he said, that is, Hong Kong City must not become Li Jin's back garden. What does this mean? We are here to do business.
At that time, Li Jin was still in his mother's womb, and now we all have to be his subordinates?"
"I don't agree with this, so since Hong Kong City isolates us, then we will stick together on our own. As for business, the world is big and we can do it anywhere. One person cannot always be on top of the clouds. The means
Well, there are still more of us old guys than young people."
