Chapter 399 The Black Dragon Society's Ambition, Gambling Ship?

If it goes through Cheng Le'er, firstly, Cheng Le'er will be in a difficult position, and then Chen Ziwen will not be able to refuse Le'er's request.

Although Cheng Le'er said not to worry about her, how could Chen Ziwen do that?

This time, coincidentally, Chan Tsz-man was worried about the interview and also wanted to improve his image among the people of Hong Kong Island, so he agreed.

“Okay, I understand.” Lok Hye-jung nodded seriously.

She understood what Chen Ziwen meant by saying that.

To be honest, she knew she had acted rashly this time, and that it would never happen again.

The banquet hall on the top floor of the Peninsula Hotel was already full by around 5:30 p.m.

However, it's already past six o'clock, and it hasn't officially started yet.

"What's going on? Why hasn't it started yet?"

"I don't know, wasn't it agreed that it would officially start at six o'clock? This..."

"I heard that it was postponed because he was waiting for someone."

Waiting for someone? Waiting for whom?

"I don't know, but whoever this person is, they are not someone we can afford to offend."

"Didn't you see Li Ka-shing and the others above, all waiting quietly?"

"Who exactly is this guy we're waiting for?"

For a moment, everyone in the banquet hall was buzzing with discussion.

However, those who participated in the discussion were just ordinary wealthy people in Hong Kong Island, whose net worth was just over 100 million.

These people had no idea that Chen Ziwen had also been invited today.

With a net worth of over 100 million, he might be considered a tycoon in the eyes of ordinary people, but at this banquet, he was merely qualified to receive an invitation.

"It's already 6:30, he probably won't come." The head of the Guo family whispered to Li Ka-shing from the main seat.

Inviting Chen Ziwen to this banquet was a decision made jointly by their various families.

In fact, people scoff at the claim that Chen Ziwen is worth hundreds of billions.

Hundreds of billions?

That would be a gross underestimation of Chen Ziwen.

Based on what they know and speculate, Chen Ziwen should be the mysterious person who controls the Kyoto and Lisboa casinos behind the scenes.

However, they have never had any evidence; it's all just speculation.

If the facts are as they guessed, putting aside the profits that these two casinos bring to Chen Ziwen every year, Chen Ziwen's relationship with Hung Hing alone is definitely not shallow.

If it were the old Hung Hing, they certainly wouldn't take them seriously.

During Chiang Tin-sang's era, the Hung Hing was no threat whatsoever in their eyes; at best, it was just a toilet.

If you're obedient, I'll use you; but if you smell bad or your hands are dirty, I'll definitely kick you away.

But it is different now.

With a new leader, Hung Hing, under the leadership of Ugly Kwan, has long since expanded beyond Hong Kong Island and become a top-tier triad in Asia.

This is someone they can't afford to mess with.

Otherwise, if you anger the other party, they might issue a kill order, which no one can handle.

Their purpose in inviting Chen Ziwen over this time was actually quite simple: to get to know Chen Ziwen better.

In case something happens in the future, we can still help them make money together.

But they didn't even consider that Chen Ziwen is clearly capable of earning money on his own, so why should he take them on?

What benefits could Chen Ziwen gain from having them with him?

If neither black nor white is acceptable, then what's the point of having them?

"It seems he's not coming," Li Ka-shing said, glancing at his watch.

His idea differed from others; he invited Chen Ziwen over this time to test Chen Ziwen's abilities.

Let's see what his attitude is towards the mainland, whether it's worth investing in, or how to invest.

Li Ka-shing originally thought that as the previous richest man in Hong Kong, he would surely be given face if he personally invited the other party.

But as it turns out, Li Ka-shing had absolutely no face in front of Chen Ziwen.

They don't even bother with invitations or anything like that; they simply ignore them.

"Alright, since he's not coming, let's start by ourselves." Composing himself, Li Ka-shing said slowly.

After all, he's been in business for decades. Although Chen Ziwen's absence made him a little uneasy, it wouldn't affect his subsequent operations.

To put it simply, this gathering was a meeting where everyone could speak freely and see if there were any profitable business opportunities that they could work on together.

"Cough cough."

Just then, a man in his thirties stood up. He coughed lightly, drawing everyone's attention.

"I have a way to make money here, I wonder if anyone is interested?" The man looked around and said with a smile.

"What's the way to get rich?"

"Tell me about it, stop keeping me in suspense."

"That's right, tell us what you think, and let's hear what you all think."

Seeing that he had stirred up the atmosphere, the man smiled and said, "Everyone should know how much profit the casinos in Macau can generate every day."

"Of course I know, of course."

"Even I sometimes go to Macau to play a couple of games when I have nothing to do."

"What's the point of saying this? Are we going to partner up and open a casino in Macau?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Macau now has two major casinos, the Kyoto and the Lisboa, and we can't get involved at all."

This isn't just idle talk; it's absolutely true.

In Macau, the two casinos have now captured over 90% of the market share.

As for the remaining casinos, they can only scrape by, vying for the remaining few percent of the market share.

Moreover, most of these few percent are debtors who refuse to pay their debts.

I have no money, but I can take your life; I've gambled away my family's fortune.

Therefore, as soon as the man said this, he was refuted by everyone.

"Wait a minute." The man pressed his hand down, then said, "Of course I know all this, but we can definitely take a different approach."

"Oh?"

"Tell me?"

"Do you have any idea?"

The man was very satisfied with the current situation: "We can all work together to build a few gambling ships. We can take our guests to play on the high seas, which will allow us to bypass Macau and Hong Kong Island at the same time."

It must be said that the man's suggestion was very tempting.

If it really succeeds, the monthly profits will be absolutely astonishing.

It's even possible to double one's net worth through this.

"This is good, but what about security?" However, someone still pointed out the most pointed question.

That's right, what about in terms of security?

If you gamble in Macau, both the Kyoto and Lisboa casinos can provide you with protection.

But what about on a gambling ship?

If something unexpected were to happen, especially in international waters, it would be an absolute catastrophe.

They don't want to risk their lives just to make money or because they're itching to get their hands dirty.

If this issue isn't resolved, there's no way to achieve this goal.

"There's no need for any concerns about that. I've already reached an agreement with the Black Dragon Society on R Island. They can provide full protection for our gambling ship," the man said confidently.

That's right, now that we've gotten to this point, everyone has realized that this man is actually Black Glove from the Black Dragon Society on R Island.

The purpose of this trip is to get a share of the profits from Macau. After all, who wouldn't be tempted by such high profits?

"Black Dragon Club?"

"That's not impossible."

"Maybe, you can try it."

For a time, many people were tempted, after all, money is a powerful motivator.

As for other issues, they were simply not within their scope of consideration.

Chen Ziwen was unaware of what had happened at the banquet.

He didn't care. He would deal with whatever came his way. He wasn't afraid of anyone setting up a gambling ship.

As for whether the Black Dragon Society can guarantee their safety, that's a matter of opinion.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the day of the opening of Chen Ziwen's private museum has arrived.

Last night, an exclusive interview with Chan Tsz-man was broadcast on television, immediately sparking heated discussions throughout Hong Kong.

Today is the opening day, and many young people are even taking time off work to come and visit.

They just wanted to get up close and personal with their idols.

"I still remember what Chen Ziwen said last night, it was really too domineering."

"Yes, yes, Chen Ziwen said that he is not interested in money at all, which is probably why he is able to make a lot of money."

“Last night, Chen Ziwen also taught us a lot of ways to make money, such as setting a small goal first, like earning 100 million.”

Hong Kong Island today has not yet been influenced by the internet spirit of later generations, so the citizens are generally still quite simple and honest.

As for what Chen Ziwen said.

I have absolutely no interest in money.

'Set a small goal: earn 100 million first.'

Such boastful remarks are believed by the public, after all, Chen Ziwen is the richest man in China, so his words are naturally very credible.

However, now that Chen Ziwen has said these two sentences, it's uncertain whether Lao Ma and Lao Wang will have any other nonsense to say in the future.

Although Chen Ziwen's private museum is the largest in Asia, and even in the world.

If it follows the established pattern, there will definitely be ribbon-cutting ceremonies and other similar activities.

However, Chen Ziwen skipped all of that, refusing all ribbon-cutting ceremonies.

After a simple fireworks display, the museum opened immediately.

Originally, many people took leave to come here because they wanted to see Chen Ziwen.

But Chen Ziwen has not been seen yet.

Fortunately, today is the first day of opening, and there are special offers. During the first week of opening, residents holding Hong Kong Island or Mainland China ID cards can enjoy a 90% discount on tickets.

Others enjoy a 50% discount.

At first, everything went smoothly. After all, it didn't cost much money, and you could see so many antiques. To anyone, it would seem like a great find.

However, soon, a large crowd suddenly gathered at the ticket office, and a noisy commotion could be heard coming from inside.
