Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

Chapter 690 Discussion, Old Master Huo

Young Master Huo led the way, not intending to pay attention to the others. Instead, he wanted to hear what Mr. He and the old man had to say. The old man had met with them personally, so they must have something special about them!
He Yuzhu was led into Old Master Huo's study by Young Master Huo, which shocked many Huo family members and guests who saw it. They all wondered who Young Master Huo was leading into Old Master Huo's study!

Mr. Fok's life can be described as legendary. From being penniless to rising to prominence, he has a strong influence in many fields that others cannot reach. In particular, he is highly trusted in mainland China, and many communication issues with the Governor of Hong Kong are resolved through Mr. Fok!
Many people try every means to squeeze into the upper class, but the world is tough, and it's not that easy. Old Master Huo is a top-tier figure.
If one could get a mentor, that would be the key to taking off. Unfortunately, not everyone has such an opportunity. The reason why invitations to the Huo family banquet are so popular is precisely because the Huo family is a top-tier family.

However, He Yuzhu was just an ordinary person in most people's eyes. Yet, such a person was led by Young Master Huo, and their destination was the old man's study, which he could only look on with envy!
"Who is that person? Is there such a person in Hong Kong? How come I've never heard of him?"

"Hehe, this guy is from the north. Last night, there was quite a show. Wu Jing from the Wu family spent a full twelve million to try to drown this guy, but he failed. Even with Young Master Li's support, it still failed."

Not only that, he produced some kind of official badge, which commanded the utmost respect from our Royal Police, and with Young Master Huo standing up for him, this guy is definitely not someone we can afford to offend!

"Oh? Something so exciting happened last night? How come I didn't hear about it?"

"Hehe, at the entrance of Wangbei Tower, almost half of the famous people were alarmed. Anyway, this guy became a household name just because of last night!"

. . . . . .

"Pillar, may I call you that?"

Inside the study, Old Master Huo looked at the younger generation with a kind and warm smile as he looked at He Yuzhu. He thought, "This young man performed very well in front of Wangbei Tower. No wonder he was able to gain that person's support. He's not simple."
If He Yuzhu succumbs to the pressure from the Li family or fails to uphold his principles and bottom line, Old Master Huo will probably keep an eye on him, but he will definitely not meet with him. At most, he will tell his son to pay more attention.
However, He Yuzhu did not disappoint him or that person in the end. As a newcomer who was preparing to do something in Hong Kong, he dared not back down. When faced with a matter of principle, he still chose to stand up to the challenge head-on, proving himself to be a true man!

"Sir, of course you can. I am flattered and deeply admire your great achievements!"

He Yuzhu looked at the old man before him, this legendary figure. This man had worked as a coal miner, a sugar factory apprentice, a laborer, and had also run a small grocery store. The misfortunes of his childhood had not broken the old man. He had lost his brother and father at a young age, but a great mother had influenced him greatly!

Now at sixty-one, he still possesses a unique charm. Born into a chaotic era and facing hardship, he developed a character that was not afraid of hardship, resolute and courageous. In particular, his heroic act of organizing a fleet to transport supplies to the front lines earned him the praise of a great public servant who considered him a friend in adversity!
With his keen business acumen, he pioneered the business model of pre-selling and paying in installments for commercial buildings. In just a few years, he built many high-end commercial buildings, becoming one of the most influential low-capacity developers on Hong Kong Island, further propelling Hong Kong's real estate market into a golden age!

Subsequently, they ventured into various fields, and now the Huo family's business has penetrated into all aspects of Hong Kong Island. What is truly commendable is their patriotism, which is the most rare thing. They also have a deep friendship with the person in China.

Tonight's banquet is probably a warm-up for the old man in front of us to personally mobilize Hong Kong businessmen to invest in China. He has devoted himself to the rise and prosperity of China. How can such a person not be respected?
"Zhu Zi, don't be shy, sit down and let's talk slowly. Don't be so polite. What I did was what every descendant of Yan and Huang should do. There's nothing admirable about it!" Old Huo looked at He Yuzhu, surprised that someone who came from China under the pretext of visiting relatives had actually done such a big thing. After receiving that person's call, Old Huo began to pay attention to He Yuzhu and even suspected that Longteng Security was He Yuzhu's business. However, the Huo family did not have enough evidence.
This is why the Huo family only noticed it after receiving that person's call in advance. People like the Li family didn't react as quickly, mainly because He Yuzhu had just come into their sights and they didn't have enough time to investigate!

Most importantly, this young man has only been in Hong Kong for a month, yet he has accomplished so much. How can this not be astonishing? He started from scratch and knows the hardships and struggles involved. This young man has shown signs of rising to prominence in such a short time. He is no ordinary young man.
"Mr. Huo, may I ask why you summoned me here?"

He Yuzhu's excitement subsided, and he asked directly, "What aspect of me could be valued by Old Master Huo so much that he would be personally summoned? Old Master Huo is a tycoon in the Chinese community of Hong Kong Island. I'm not so narcissistic as to think that anything I've done could attract Old Master Huo's attention!"

After all, he hadn't even started making any moves since arriving in Hong Kong. What happened last night was just a matter of stance, and shouldn't have made Old Master Huo take it so seriously!
At least for now, he has shown no merit whatsoever. When people are of similar strength, his current abilities are such that even a second-rate businessman wouldn't take him seriously, let alone this person!

"That guy asked me to take good care of you. He was a little worried, but now it seems you've performed exceptionally well. It's obvious his worries were unnecessary. Zhu Zi, when you go back, take the boss with you. No, not just the boss, but also some other people!"

Old Huo smiled at He Yuzhu, then pointed north. He Yuzhu sat up abruptly upon seeing Old Huo's gesture. It seemed that his affairs had been discovered by that person. Since there was nothing to explain, then all was well!

"What do you mean?"

He Yuzhu still couldn't guess. Could it be a high-ranking leader? Impossible! If a high-ranking leader makes a phone call, they definitely wouldn't not say anything. Since they didn't say anything, it couldn't be a high-ranking leader!

"No one knows about your relationship with that person. Just focus on your career development. That person also said that if you're too busy to finish your return trip once the return date is set, you can postpone it!"

Ignoring He Yuzhu's reaction, Old Master Huo seemed to be talking to himself, but he was revealing a lot of information. Of course, without Young Master Huo noticing, he wrote a word on the table!

"I see. I didn't expect that Elder Huo had a connection with that person. Please forgive my rudeness!"

A glint flashed in Old Huo's eyes. This person in front of him might really be different from his peers. No wonder that person cared about him so much.

If he didn't have some outstanding qualities, he wouldn't be valued so much. It seems that we should let the boss get to know this young man better, so that he might benefit from him in the future!
