Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss

Looking at Liu Xu who was thinking with his eyes closed and his expression changing constantly, Li Hangluo knew that his boss was weighing the pros and cons of this matter. He sat quietly by the side without making any sound, so as not to disturb Liu Xu's thinking.

Suddenly, Liu Xu opened his eyes abruptly. He looked at Li Hangluo with a firm gaze and said, "Ah Luo, give this boss Lin a call and ask if he is available now. I want to talk to him."

I remember a saying in my previous life: "When the profit reaches 10%, they will be ready to move; when the profit reaches 50%, they will take risks;"

"When profits reach 100%, they dare to trample on all human laws; when profits reach 300%, they dare to risk being hanged."

Now there is a lucrative deal in front of him, tempting him. Liu Xu said: "I really want to try the feeling of being a capital."

After hearing Liu Xu's instructions, Li Hangluo immediately stood up and walked aside to call Boss Lin.

Li Hangluo conveyed Liu Xu's intention to the other party and expressed the hope to meet as soon as possible.

After receiving the other party's reply, Li Hangluo hung up the phone, then turned around and said to Liu Xu, "Boss, the other party said he would come right over and is expected to arrive in about fifteen minutes."

"Yeah." Liu Xu nodded slightly, indicating that he already knew. Then, he continued to close his eyes and waited for Boss Lin to arrive.

Not long after, Li Hangluo walked in with a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties.

The man was wearing a dark suit, looking steady and capable. He had a smile on his face, a beer belly, and a typical middle-aged fat body. "Brother Xu, this is Mr. Lin from the Tsuen Wan Brewery," Li Hangluo introduced.

Liu Xu stood up, stretched out his hand to shake hands with Boss Lin, and said with a smile: "Boss Lin, nice to meet you!"

After the two greeted each other, they sat down. Liu Xu carefully looked at Boss Lin in front of him, secretly evaluating his strength and credibility. At the same time, he also looked forward to the new opportunities that this meeting would bring him.

After the other party sat down, Liu Xu stared into his eyes, with a serious face, and spoke first. "Boss Lin, my brother A Luo has explained to me in detail the troubles you are facing and your needs."

"I asked you to come here this time mainly because I want to hear your personal explanation of why the foreigners targeted you. Of course, I hope that what I hear from you are all facts. If I feel that the reasons you give are not sufficient or have other questions,

"Then I can only regretfully reject your offer."

"I hope I heard the real reason, Boss Lin. If the reason Boss Lin told me lacks authenticity, then I can only say sorry to you, Boss Lin."

Seeing that the other party had a young face, but spoke calmly and with full energy, Boss Lin did not dare to underestimate him. He said, "It's actually nothing serious. I have some concerns about the negotiations between Britain and the northern powers."

"Besides, I am already 48 years old this year. The desire to return to my roots will always fill my heart with time. So I planned to sell my assets and return to my country, Malaysia, to develop. But I didn't expect that the news would be leaked by people around me."

Liu Xu was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Boss Lin, your Cantonese is more standard than mine. I thought you were born and raised in Hong Kong! I never thought you were actually Malaysian."

“Haha, many of my business partners were surprised when I told them I was Malay because my Cantonese was too standard when we first met each other,” Boss Lin laughed.

"When I was 20, my mother brought me to Hong Kong Island alone. Maybe it was the passage of time that made me absorb the Cantonese language."

"My mother, she witnessed the chaotic 1950s with me, and accompanied me through the upside-down 1960s; but she finally fell in the darkness before dawn."

"She had been looking forward to returning to her hometown and witnessing the day when the hibiscus flowers bloomed, but unfortunately, this wish did not come true."

Boss Lin fell into memories, with a look of vicissitudes and loneliness on his face, and his voice gradually became low.

After realizing his own gaffe, Boss Lin tried to control his emotions. He apologized and said, "Perhaps it's because I'm getting older and I've become sentimental. I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Boss Liu."

Liu Xu poured him a cup of tea and said, "Don't be sad, Boss Lin. Since the deceased is gone, we should look forward. And if your relatives see your achievements now, they will be very pleased."

Liu Xu's words were like a warm force, slightly alleviating the pain and sadness in Boss Lin's heart.

Liu Xu had completely figured out the whole story. Boss Lin wanted to sell his assets and return to his own country to develop. But because the news leaked, it attracted a vicious wolf and a fierce tiger.

Liu Xu coughed lightly and adjusted his throat. Liu Xu was afraid of causing misunderstanding, so he explained, "Mr. Lin, the question I'm going to ask may touch your sensitive area, but I hope you can tell me the truth, because it will affect how I rescue your daughter.

After hearing what the other party said, Boss Lin knew that the other party was indirectly telling him that the other party agreed to his request and was willing to make a deal with him, so he felt relieved. "Boss Liu, please ask. I will tell you the truth."

I want to know the status of your asset sales and fund transfers." Liu Xu said directly.

After a brief pause, Boss Lin immediately continued, "As for assets, there is only one brewery and one water plant left that I haven't had time to sell. As for funds, I have already transferred 90% of the funds in the form of stocks."

"I only kept 10% of the funds to ensure that the ghost police officer was not transferred out by me."

Liu Xu knew that the other party didn't tell him the exact amount because he was afraid of arousing his greed, so he didn't expose his trick on the spot. However, after hearing that 90% of the funds had been transferred out, Liu Xu's face changed and he stood up suddenly.

"A Luo, go and help me guard the door, beware of ears."

Li Hangluo had been feeling uneasy since he heard Boss Lin say he was transferring assets. When he heard his boss asked him to watch the door, he was not unhappy but very touched. He immediately stood up, closed the door and stood guard at the door. After all, the less you know, the safer you are.

When Liu Xu saw A Luo go out, his expression became very serious. He said, "You are so confused, Boss Lin. You shouldn't sell your real estate so quickly. William is obviously just a pawn who was pushed out to stabilize your pawn. Now you are in danger."

The foreigners working in Hong Kong Island at this time would not be soft on the foreigners who were about to stop paying taxes to their queen. Not to mention the wealthy who had accumulated huge sums of money in their temporary territory. Killing the donkey after it has done its job is their common tactic.

Boss Lin was also an old hand, and after hearing Liu Xu's reminder, he immediately understood the seriousness of the matter. He understood that Liu Xu was hinting that the person staring at him was not just a foreigner, but a group of people.

Grabbing Liu Xu's hand, Boss Lin's face turned pale, and he said to Liu Xu anxiously: "If Boss Liu helps me rescue my daughter tonight, I am willing to give you the remaining 10% of my funds: 300 million Hong Kong dollars and the two factories."

After hearing that the transaction funds increased from a brewery to a brewery and a water plant for 300 million Hong Kong dollars, Liu Xu was shocked. He swallowed his saliva secretly. At the same time, he was a little shocked by the other party's worth.

Ten percent, 300 million Hong Kong dollars. If calculated in this way, the funds that Boss Lin cashed out alone were as high as 3 billion. This is already in the upper middle class of the wealthy. This was an emergency withdrawal, and the loss of the discount rate must be not low.

If I cash out under normal circumstances, I should be able to get a few hundred million Hong Kong dollars more.

Liu Xu did not respond to Mr. Lin's question, but instead asked, "Does Mr. Lin have any cash left?"

Boss Lin didn't know why Liu Xu suddenly brought up the topic of cash, but now he needed help.

He answered honestly, "Yes, they are all in the safe at the Tsuen Wan Brewery, a total of 15 million. I only had over 10,000 in cash on me."
