The film and television world begins with the battle for the throne in Kowloon

Chapter 243: No one more powerful than me is allowed to exist

To put it bluntly, that is one's own faction and one's own foundation.

If Li Yaoguang had given a heads-up to himself through Commissioner Xu of the Police Department, he might have been promoted to a higher rank, but he would have lost the support of his faction.

Because my own faction would feel that I had climbed up the ladder and would no longer trust me, fearing that I would become a hidden pawn of another faction and play both sides.

Especially since he was an undercover agent, it was even more difficult to gain people's trust.

And the new faction will not accept me, because I was not raised by them, I have no good roots, and there is no ties of support from them.

Competition for the top echelons of the police force does not rely on individual heroism, but on teamwork and community.

Without a strong rear base, I am like a rootless duckweed. In the confrontation between those giants, the first to suffer are lone rangers like me.

Therefore, Li Yaoguang's favor is a dose of poison wrapped in candy.

Of course, Li Yaoguang might not necessarily want to harm himself. Perhaps he just wanted to test whether he could have such a long-term vision and whether he had a deep understanding and knowledge of the officialdom.

If I take advantage of Li Yaoguang's kindness and climb up the ladder, it would mean that I am short-sighted and stupid, and he would probably be very disappointed!
Thirdly, one should be grateful for what one has received from others and be soft-handed when taking advantage of others. The Li family’s favor is not so easy to obtain. After receiving the favor from the Li family, Li Yan could no longer maintain his independent position.

Now Li Yan and the Li family are equal. From the conversation just now and today's meeting, it can be seen that Li Yan intends to maintain an independent identity.

Not for the wealth and resources of the Li family
At the same time, he is not subject to the constraints and requirements of the Li family!

The Li family also felt Li Yan's attitude, so they agreed, but this was based on not asking them for anything. If they received a favor from the Li family, it would be different.

Then you will become the donkey of the Li family and have to pull the mill for the Li family.

From now on, he will cut himself off from all factions and can only rely on the Li family, but the Li family does not actually have any strong power in the police force.

In other words, the road ahead will be even more difficult.

I can’t live without the Li family for the rest of my life!
Of course, the last point, in Li Yan's opinion, Li Yaoguang's seemingly cordial and enthusiastic words were just a few words that seemed ordinary, but they gave him a sense of power and also gave him a sense of oppression.

Li Yaoguang has another meaning he wants to express!
You, Li Yan, are just a small chief inspector of the police force, while I can easily chat and have meals with the Commissioner of Police. There is a difference of seven or eight levels between you, which is also seven or eight levels between you and me.

Just a few words from me can promote you.

of course
I can also knock you down from the dust!
You'd better put yourself in the right place
Mr. Li Cunwang obviously understood what he meant, so he didn't treat Li Yaoguang well.
Of course, if Li Yan were in Li Yan's position, he would be unhappy about Li Yaoguang's thoughts, but from Li Xiner's perspective, there was nothing wrong with it.

As long as the other party does not attack you, you will not make enemies everywhere for no reason.

After all, the right way is to make more friends and fewer enemies.

Sun Tzu's Art of War says, don't fight without benefit!
If there is no benefit, even if we are humiliated by others, we will not easily start a war.

Of course, if it is profitable, even if there is no conflict, you can still launch an attack and take the initiative to provoke trouble!

Although Li Yan is young, he will not make enemies for no reason because of a momentary quarrel or face problem. He will not use his own resources and take huge risks to challenge a powerful enemy.

If you are so impulsive and irritable, you will never be able to reach the top!

So what if you get into trouble? No matter how high your position is, you will get into trouble sometimes. It's just that ordinary people don't know it.
I heard that Lao Guo on the opposite island once knelt down in the rain in order to get an order from Apple.

It turns out that everyone eats turtles!
Li Yan had never seen in real life the kind of person who would rather break than bend, and would kill gods if they stood in his way, and would kill Buddhas if they stood in his way.

Because, Master Ruilong said that this earth does not allow such awesome people to exist!
But Li Yan secretly thought that Master Ruilong's words actually meant: Jingzhou does not allow anyone more powerful than me to exist.
Next is the second uncle Li Yaozong. He did not choose to go into politics, but instead took charge of the entire Li family's industry. He held hundreds of billions of assets and had his own demeanor.

He looks like a tall, thin middle-aged man, wearing glasses, looking gentle and with a friendly smile on his face.

He is quite friendly to Li Yan!

He did not play tricks like Li Yaozong, but said proudly: "Just call me Second Uncle. If you have any difficulties in the future, just tell me. I will definitely help you if I can!"

Of course, this attitude is for the third child;
Secondly, Li Yan was in the police force and had no connections with him, so there was no conflict of interest, so he was naturally very happy.

Li Yan expressed his gratitude and had a good impression of this kind second uncle.

Through Li Xiner's usual words and calculations, Li Yan learned that all of the Li family's industries belonged to the Li Group.

The Li Group itself does not have any specific business, nor is it a listed company. It only controls Li's industries in various fields at home and abroad.

The president of this group is Li Yaozong.

Of course, even though he is in charge of it, it does not mean that all the property belongs to him.

Instead, under the auspices of Li Cunwang, it was divided into three parts, with each of the three sons taking 30% and the remaining 10% in the hands of the old man.

It is fair and reasonable, and no one objects to it.

The eldest and third sons only have share ownership and dividend rights and cannot participate in management without the consent of the Supervisory Board.

Of course, there is only one member of the Supervisory Board at present, Li Cunwang.

And two daughters have already married!
The wealthy families in Hong Kong have inherited the traditional Chinese idea that all property is passed down to sons and not daughters, and that a daughter who is married off is like water spilled.

When a daughter gets married, she will have a generous dowry, but don't think about any property.

One of Li Xiner's two aunts married into Mr. Huo's family and only brought a dowry without any shares in the Li family.

The Huo family also understood this well, because Mr. Huo had many older daughters. If they all took away a share when they got married, the Huo family would have gone bankrupt long ago.

Li Yan really wanted to ask, if my son takes your surname Li, will he be considered a member of the Li family and can he get a share of the property.

Seeing that everyone at the scene was from the Li family, Li Yan shrank his neck and didn't dare to ask.
Afraid of being kicked out again.
When it was finally Li Yaozu's turn, the old man said directly, "Since you have met, I won't say more. Ah Sheng has prepared everything. Let's have a couple of drinks at noon today. This matter is settled."

When are you going to get married in the future? Can you discuss it?
But don’t delay it too long. You are not young anymore. I will feel relieved if you get married and have children sooner.

Li Yaozu was simply unhappy with Li Yan. He felt that his precious daughter was being taken advantage of by a pig like Li Yan, and he felt very indignant.

But he has never had any status in the Li family, as he is suppressed by the old man and his elder and second brothers.

Li Xiner looked at him pleadingly from below. He could only sigh and nodded in agreement.

We had a meal together at noon and both the guests and hosts had a great time.

Li Yan and Li Xin'er's lifelong affairs were thus settled.

Just wait for an auspicious day and get it done.
As the two drove away from the middle of the mountain and headed home along the ring road, Li Xiner was as happy as a little sparrow, chattering non-stop.

"Li Yan, now that grandpa and the others have agreed, when do you think we should get married?"

"It's up to you. I don't care." Li Yan was still thinking about the matter of Li's uncle. He said perfunctorily and didn't hear Li Xiner's words for a long time.

Suddenly I felt the car become quiet. I turned around and saw that Li Xiner looked unhappy. My mind raced and I understood the reason.

He stretched out his right hand, held Li Xiner's hand, and said softly: "Silly, I actually wanted to get married a long time ago."

"In my mind, we have been husband and wife for a long time."

Seeing that Li Xin'er's face had regained its radiance, Li Yan explained, "You are the granddaughter of the Li family, and the Li family is a prominent family in Hong Kong Island. Marriage is not just a matter between the two of us. The specific date is definitely not something we can casually decide. Grandpa will definitely consider all aspects of the factors and choose an auspicious day."

"I am the one with the least say in this matter. Instead of asking me, you should ask grandpa."

Li Xiner suddenly realized, no wonder Li Yan didn't take it so seriously.

Thinking of this, he felt a little guilty, so he held Li Yan's hand and said apologetically, "I'm sorry for putting you in such a difficult position."

"How could that be? It is my blessing to marry the little princess of the Li family."

"But when we were having dinner today, I heard Grandpa and Uncle talking about it. It might be in the near future, within two or three months. The exact date is not clear."

Li Xiner felt sweet in her heart, and thought of a question her cheap father had mentioned. She looked at Li Yan cautiously and asked in a low voice: "What will our two families do then?"

Li Yan sighed inwardly and fell silent. This was the disadvantage of marrying into a wealthy family.

The Li family is a wealthy and prominent family, so there will definitely be a grand ceremony and the people who come will be either rich or noble.

The Li Yan family is just an ordinary villager family in the northern New Territories. They are considered landlords in the village and have some status.

But once he left the village, he was still completely ignorant and had never seen the world.

In front of these Hong Kong bigwigs, he is even worse than an ant. This is a fact. Li Yan has no choice but the system gives him this identity.

Of course, in front of a time traveler, no identity is important.

Li Yan also knew about the Li family's concerns. The questions asked by Li Xin'er were also what the Li family wanted to ask. They were also objective realities that could not be avoided.

It would be better if Li Xiner could come up with a plan that everyone can accept.

Li Yan is not the kind of pedantic person. He is not the kind of person who would make everyone unhappy just for the sake of face.

What's more, Li Yan's relatives may not like to join in the fun, and it would be uncomfortable for them to be with a group of big guys.

If two people from different classes are forced to get together, neither side will be happy.

"I have thought about this a long time ago. The wedding will be divided into two parts, one at the bride's home and one at the groom's home."

"When you are at the girl's house, only my parents will be present. No relatives will come. We will arrange a private room in the hotel and only arrange for your parents to accompany you. They will not interact with the girl's other family members and guests."

"During the ceremony, both parents will be present, and they will return to the private room for dinner afterwards. When it's almost done, we'll arrange for a driver to take them back. It doesn't matter how late the bride's side stays."

Seeing that Li Xin'er was listening carefully, Li Yan knew that Li Xin'er wanted to remember the details and then report back when she got home, so he spoke slowly and clearly.

"My parents are also old-fashioned. Let them pick a date and hold the event again. Only your uncle and aunt, that is, your parents, will come out. It will be the same operation method. What do you think?"

"I will discuss it with my parents when the time comes. If they feel that they are at a disadvantage, I will let them do it in advance. If they don't mind, I will put it aside for later."

Li Yan also felt very tired. Just like when two countries establish diplomatic relations, they have to consider the face of both parties and maintain the principle of equality.

That is, you don’t oppress others, and you don’t suffer losses either.

This is the most respectable approach Li Yan can think of. If he really mixes the relatives of the man and the woman together, he will probably end up being unpopular with everyone.

After hearing Li Yan's plan, Li Xiner agreed with it in her heart.

He nodded. The problem that had been bothering him was solved so easily by Li Yan. Both parties enjoyed equal treatment and no one felt that the other was at a disadvantage.

As for whether the man or the woman does it first, it does not affect the other party. It is indeed the best of both worlds.

But to be honest, Li Yan still suffered a little. Li Xin'er naturally knew it in her heart. She hugged Li Yan's arm, leaned her head against it, and said with emotion: "Thank you, husband!"

Li Yan saw Li Xin'er's gentleness like water, and his heart was moved. He said, "Xin'er, let's try the standing posture that you refused last time tonight."

"roll!."
