Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss

The housekeeper Zhang Zetian hurried back and found that the master had not come back yet, so he quickly picked up the phone and dialed the number of the Cheung Kong Holdings office.

"Hello, is this Cheung Kong? I am Zhang Tianze, the butler of Master Superman. I have an urgent matter that needs to be reported to Master Superman immediately."

After a brief wait for the other party to confirm and transfer the call, Zhang Tianze's heartbeat accelerated a bit.

Finally, the call was connected, and the secretary's professional and polite voice came from the other end: "Butler Zhang, Master Chaoren is in a meeting. Is there anything important you need to convey?"

"Yes, it's very urgent. Let Huo Jianding answer the phone first," Zhang Tianze answered simply and powerfully. He knew that when Superman was in a meeting, he would arrange Huo Jianding outside the meeting to avoid missing any urgent information.

Upon hearing this, the secretary called Huo Jianding, who was not far away, and said, "Mr. Huo, Butler Zhang has something urgent to discuss with the boss. Could you please answer the phone?"

"Hello, I'm Huo Jianding. What does Butler Zhang want to talk to the boss about?"

Hearing the familiar voice coming from the microphone, Butler Zhang quickly said, "Mr. Huo, the two young masters A Ju and A Kai have been kidnapped."

Although the voice tried hard to remain calm, upon closer listening, it was still difficult to conceal the anxiety and urgency.

Huo Jianding on the other end of the phone suddenly looked solemn when he heard this. He knew the importance of the news and replied without any hesitation: "Butler Zhang, please rest assured. I will convey this matter to the boss immediately."

"Please remain calm and continue to organize people to search for clues. We will mobilize all available resources as soon as possible to ensure the safety of the two young masters."

After saying that, Huo Jianding ended the call with Zhang Tianze, rushed to the heavy wooden door of the conference room, and pushed it open without any hesitation.

In the conference room, everyone who was originally immersed in the discussion was shocked by this sudden action and looked at each other in confusion and astonishment.

Even Superman, who was sitting in the main seat, looked at Huo Jianding gloomily.

However, Huo Jianding had no time to take care of these. He walked straight to Superman, leaned over and whispered in his ear the emergency situation of the two young masters being kidnapped.

When Superman heard this, his brows knitted tightly together, and a hint of anger and worry flashed across his eyes. He ignored the displeasure he had just felt because of Huo Jianding, and immediately stood up and interrupted the ongoing meeting.

He announced in an unquestionable tone: "Everyone, today's meeting ends here. I need to deal with an emergency immediately. Please go about your business. I will notify you separately regarding follow-up matters."

After he finished speaking, without waiting for anyone to react, Superman turned around and quickly left the meeting room with Huo Jianding, rushing downstairs.

Arriving at the parking lot, Superman didn't say much. He drove the car himself and rushed out of the parking lot like an arrow, heading straight for home.

After arriving home, Superman did not rush to get out of the car. Instead, he made a brief and powerful gesture through the car window to the butler Zhang Tianze and bodyguard Wang Long who had been waiting outside.

Seeing this, the two men understood what was meant and got into the car quickly and orderly.

Inside the car, the atmosphere was heavy and tense, and every second seemed extraordinarily long.

"Now, I need you to repeat to me everything that happened at Edinburgh Noble School today without omission."

Superman's voice was low and stern, and his eyes were fixed on the faces of the butler and the bodyguard, making them dare not slack off in the slightest.

Zhang Tianze took a deep breath, tried to calm himself, and began to narrate what happened today in an orderly manner.

From Master Li Kai's laughter after school, to the sudden changes, to how they tried their best to track the kidnappers, every detail was clearly outlined by him.

The bodyguard Wang Long was adding every key information he saw and heard at the scene. The two people's accounts corroborated each other, forming a thrilling picture.

After listening to the two people's stories, Superman's heart calmed down instantly. Since the other party planned to come to his house in person to collect the money, it meant that his two children would not be in any danger in the short term.

He was not going to vent his anger on the driver and bodyguard because of this incident. After calming down, Superman calmly asked, "You didn't tell Yueming about this, did you?"

Upon hearing this, the two of them quickly shook their heads.

Superman looked out the window with deep eyes, as if thinking about something. "I am very pleased with your actions. If Yueming knew about this, I am worried that she would not be able to bear the blow."

Looking at the expressions on the bodyguard and the butler's faces, Superman knew what they were worried about. He patted the chair gently, signaling them to relax.

"Don't worry, I won't take my anger out on you for what happened between Ju and Kai. This was clearly a planned and organized action, and I believe it has nothing to do with you."

Superman's eyes fell on Zhang Tianze and Wang Long again, and his tone was full of unquestionable firmness, "Aze, go contact a security company in Hong Kong that has a good reputation in the industry."

“I must find the most professional and reliable team to strengthen the security of my home. I want to make sure that this is the safest place when Ah Ju and Ah Kai come back.”

"Aaron, you stay at home for the next two days and help me keep an eye on the surveillance cameras at home."

After the two men received the order and left, Superman and Huo Jianding were the only ones left in the car.

Superman turned to look at Huo Jianding, who was in the co-pilot seat, and ordered with a sinister look: "Jianding, your mission is equally important. I have always trusted your extraordinary abilities."

"Have him carefully investigate Zhang Tianze and Wang Long's situations and see if there are any sudden large amounts of money flowing into or out of their bank cards, or if anyone in their family suddenly falls seriously ill. If you have any specific information, notify me immediately."

"Also, I need you to prepare some cash for me as a ransom."

Huo Jianding was embarrassed, "Boss, our company doesn't have $100 million in cash."

Hearing this, Superman narrowed his eyes and thought for a while. After a while, he sighed deeply and said, "I will sell some of the shares of Hong Kong Land that I bought in the past few years and then borrow some from HSBC."

Huo Jianding was reluctant to hear this, but he also understood that this was the only solution at the moment. He nodded solemnly and said that he would immediately prepare for the relevant matters.

After Huo Jianding left, Superman adjusted the expression on his face and walked back to the villa with firm steps.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw his wife Yueming, sitting quietly on the sofa reading a newspaper.

Looking at his wife's face, Superman felt a little distressed.

The fate of the two began in childhood when Chaoren and his family fled to Hong Kong Island due to the war and took refuge with Yueming's father Zhuang Jing'an.

During his time at the banker's, Superman gradually developed a deep relationship with his cousin Yueming.

Despite the disparity in their status, Yueming did not dislike Chaoman. Instead, he gave him great support and encouragement in the past days.

After 18 years of waiting and hard work, the two finally got married in 1963. After marriage, Yueming became Chaoren's good wife.

Not only did she give him meticulous care and attention in his family life, she also gave him advice and support in his career.

With his intelligence and outstanding abilities, Yueming held an important position in Cheung Kong Holdings and made great contributions to the development of Superman Company.

"Yueming, there is something I need to tell you. I have temporarily arranged for Akai and Aju to go to Britain to study. It will take about a week for them to come back."

Yueming, who was kind and gentle, felt something was wrong when she heard Chaoren's words. She put down the newspaper in her hand and asked, "Did something happen to Ah Ju and Ah Kai?"

Chaoren smiled gently, his eyes full of love and trust for his wife. "Yueming, you are always so sharp, nothing can escape your eyes."
