Chapter 448 Got it!
No, if we were to be more precise and include Adelson's license plate, it would be 200 percent!
Today, Adelson deliberately sat next to Lin Zehao, and the two talked and laughed, looking like good friends.
The people around were a little surprised when they saw this, but they didn't take it to heart. Only He Hongsen frowned secretly.
"Everyone is welcome to participate in this bidding meeting for the gaming industry in Haojiang. No matter who is finally selected, I hope we can work together to build Haojiang in the future."
"Next, I will announce the three finalists."
This bidding conference was chaired by the Director of the Finance Department of Haojing. He didn't say any nonsense at the beginning and went straight to the point, which was exactly what the heads of the 16 companies present wanted.
"The first one is Haojiang Tourism and Entertainment Co., Ltd."
When this news was announced, there was no reaction from the crowd. It could be said that this was completely expected.
The next two companies are the highlight and the real battlefield!
The Financial Secretary did not keep the secret and straightened the microphone on the table, then said, "The second one is Hutchison Entertainment Tourism Culture Co., Ltd."
As soon as this statement came out, the whole audience was excited!
Everyone's face was filled with disbelief!
Only Lin Zehao had a faint smile on his face, looking decent and elegant, as if everything was expected.
The others were not able to remain so calm. They even thought they were cunning for not standing up and questioning him face to face!
It’s not that Lin Zehao is not strong, it’s just that Hutchison had no experience in the gambling industry before, so why was he selected?
Underground casino?
It's totally not up to standard!
Seeing the meeting room suddenly in chaos, the Financial Secretary deliberately coughed loudly several times into the microphone. Seeing that it had no effect, he immediately shouted angrily: "Silence! Everyone, silence! Everyone, silence!"
"If you continue to make loud noises and disrupt order, you will be expelled from the venue and disqualified from bidding!"
Disqualified from bidding!
No one present could bear the consequences and could only return to their seats obediently. Even though they were unwilling to accept the consequences, they could only endure it silently.
Fortunately, there is still one spot left.
What if this spot belongs to me?
Everyone had this thought in mind, silently waiting for the ownership of the third and only sign.
The Financial Secretary did not want to waste time. If things dragged on like this, something unexpected might happen. He immediately said, "The third company is the Sino-American Friendship Group."
When the news came out, everyone was shocked and even more confused.
Sino-US Friendship Group?
Is it related to the meeting place?
It was not until Adelson stood up excitedly and took the initiative to hug Lin Zehao to celebrate that everyone realized, oh, it turned out to be this guy's company.
and many more!
Why did Adelson keep thanking Lin Zehao? Could it be that...
None of those who can appear in this situation are truly stupid, it’s just that some have faster or slower reactions.
"It seems that Lin Zehao also helped to obtain the license of the Sino-US Friendship Group?"
After this idea appeared in everyone's mind, it grew wildly like weeds and could not be controlled.
When they are in this position, it is impossible for them to go up and cause trouble mindlessly when faced with such a situation. It is as if they cannot afford to lose. They can only complain or curse a few words and then turn around and leave.
Lin Zehao!
They remembered this name!
Since the other party has entered the gambling industry, there will always be opportunities to deal with each other in the future!
Apart from anything else, after Lin Zehao's place opens, they will definitely find someone to go and show their support!
After sending his blessings, He Hongsen also left on the pretext of having something to do. The moment he turned around, his face became extremely gloomy, just like the face-changing in Sichuan Opera.
He was not a petty person, but this matter really made him unhappy, and he even had a strong sense of crisis in his heart.
Back then, He Hongsen proposed that Lin Zehao invest and become a shareholder of Haojing Tourism and Entertainment Company in order to cope with the impending chaos in the industry and also to thank Lin Zehao for saving his life.
In other words, Lin Zehao will have a share of every penny generated by the company in the future.
Of course, this was not what he regretted, this was the reward or gratitude for saving his son's life.
The most important thing is, judging from the relationship between Lin Zehao and Adelson just now, the two must have in-depth cooperation!
As a result, Haojing only has three licenses, and all three licenses are related to Lin Zehao.
He has full control over Hutchison Entertainment and Tourism Culture Company, and he holds a small stake in Haojing Tourism and Entertainment Company, only 10%. However, based on He Hongsen's understanding of Lin Zehao, he must have received considerable benefits to help Adelson obtain the last license.
In other words, this Sino-US Friendship Group should also be under the control of Lin Zehao!
In this way, it is almost equivalent to Lin Zehao dominating the Macau gambling industry in disguise!
There are currently only three business licenses, and the three licensed companies have direct or indirect connections with it!
If this trend continues, wouldn't the position that originally belonged to him become unworthy of its name?
Thinking back then, he had snatched this position from Fu Laorong. Was he going to repeat the same mistake and be beaten down on the beach by Lin Zehao?
Thinking about the consequences of being bullied by Lin Zehao, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat!
No matter what, he would never allow this to happen!
So what if he is your savior? When it comes to absolute interests and life and death, there are no exceptions!
As the dust settled, most people were discussing one name, Lin Zehao!
To the citizens who don't know the inside story, he, a wealthy man who beat out industry tycoons from all over the world to win a license, is completely one of them.
After all, he was born and raised in Hong Kong Island, and was more recognized by the local citizens of Macao than those white and black people.
After the license issue was settled, the reclamation works of various projects have been put on track, including the Haojing International Airport and the piece of land opposite Friendship Avenue, which is expected to cover an area of more than 700,000 square meters.
Currently, both projects have adopted a 20-hour three-shift system, striving to complete them as quickly as possible while keeping machines running while keeping people rested.
Of course, the salary is fully worth the hard work of working three shifts.
Lin Zehao has always been generous to his employees.
Taking advantage of the opportunity when the Number Gang was imprisoned and badly weakened, he instructed Guilinzi to take over a lot of territories and kept all the 8,000 Hutchison gang members. He also left Lin Huaile to coordinate the situation in Haojing, so as to control the situation in Haojing and ensure the progress of the two projects currently underway to prevent anyone from sabotaging them.
During this time, Lin Zehao entertained some key figures in Haojiang in order to improve their relationships and pave the way for the future.
During this period, Bai Dean also expressed his loyalty and finally got the support of Lin Zehao as he wished.
The overall situation has been decided, and the remaining things are basically some details. The project needs time to advance, so there is little point for him to continue staying in Haojiang. After everything is basically settled, Lin Zehao took the Tenglong back to Hong Kong Island.
It is worth mentioning that Miss He gave up her secretary job for unknown reasons. Lin Zehao understood it, but he neither asked why nor said anything to persuade her. He just let things take their course.
Hong Kong Island.
Kai Tak Airport.
As the Tenglong landed, Chen Guoqiang, who had been waiting at the airport for a long time, could no longer suppress his excitement and took the lead in shouting.
"Welcome Brother Hao back to Hong Kong Island!"
"Welcome Brother Hao back to Hong Kong Island!"
With Chen Guoqiang taking the lead, the younger brothers also followed suit and shouted loudly. Each of them looked excited and looked extremely excited.
Such a scene naturally attracted people around to stop and watch, and some even wanted to take out their cameras to take pictures, but they were all dissuaded by the airport staff without exception.
Lin Zehao, wearing a black wool coat, walked slowly down the plane and nodded slightly to his younger brothers.
Walking down the aisle, he and Chen Guoqiang hugged each other, looked at each other, and both laughed out loud.
After getting on the motorcade that had been prepared long ago, Lin Zehao smoked a cigar, looked at the scenery outside the window, and said with some emotion: "Time flies so fast, and it's almost the New Year again in a blink of an eye."
"Every time at this time, I always think of the time we had before, those days of blood and fire, which are still vivid in my mind, just like yesterday."
Chen Guoqiang nodded and said, "Perhaps, those days have never gone away."
"Brother Hao, the situation in Hong Kong Island is not very good right now. The Xinji and the Number Gang have launched a total of five attacks on us recently. Although they were all tentative, the scale was larger each time."
"After the news of your return spreads, maybe they will calm down for a while."
As Hei Zai Hua and Shui Fong Lai were being suppressed in Haojiang, Ge Zhixiong's plan to force Lin Zehao to withdraw personnel from Hong Kong Island for reinforcement failed, so both sides did not dare to act rashly.
Now the whole underworld knows that the fighting power of Heji thugs is strong. Before he has an absolute advantage in numbers, Ge Zhixiong would certainly not dare to act rashly. He can only judge the truth through constant testing.
Lin Zehao nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
Chen Guoqiang slapped his forehead and continued, "By the way, Brother Hao, I don't know what the Hong Kong Island Police Force has done. They have set up a special task force to investigate our company. The leader is a senior inspector of the serious crime team named Chen Jiaju."
"They have been keeping a close eye on us for a while now, but I haven't taken any measures because of Xinji and the Number Gang."
"Look, what should we do?"
Lin Zehao exhaled a puff of smoke and said with a smile: "Aqiang, how come your status is getting higher and higher, but your courage is getting smaller and smaller? Do I still need to teach you about this kind of thing?"
"Don't worry, you don't have to hide your incompetence in front of me. I'm not Zhu Yuanzhang, and I won't attack my own brothers."
"We should do what we have to do. There is only one requirement, which is to try to resolve it peacefully. If you really don't know how to appreciate it, then do it cleanly and don't leave any tails behind."
Chen Jiaju, the so-called super policeman, Lin Zehao didn't have any special feelings about it.
He doesn't care who pushed the gun to the front of the stage for this super policeman. He only knows that whoever stands in his way is his enemy!
There is only one way to face the enemy.
"Understood, Brother Hao."
Lin Zehao continued, "By the way, ask Abin and Arong to come back and leave the affairs of Treasure Island to the younger brothers below. There is also Zhou Chaoxian over there, so there won't be any problems."
After Chen Guoqiang agreed, he immediately picked up his brother's phone and conveyed his boss's orders.
As the convoy slowly moved forward, the bustling streets were slowly stretched out like a slide, and displayed to everyone without reservation.
The entire Hong Kong underworld was also greatly shaken by Lin Zehao's return!
The first ones are Xinji and Number Gang!
Ge Zhixiong picked up his elder brother's phone and dialed Xiang Yan's number.
"You have received the news, what are you going to do?"
Xiang Yan's voice came from the receiver, "No way, you are a big boss, why are you so timid?"
"Don't even mention Wei Longhao. If our two families join forces, what can the Governor of Hong Kong do?"
"What's more, it's normal for gangs to fight and kill each other for territory. If Wei Longhao is unhappy, he can send people to clean up our two families' places."
"As for who will be the big one and who will be the small one, it all depends on their ability."
Xiang Yan is now a completely different person than before. After he realized that the fighting capacity of Heji Fighters exceeded the average level, he recruited a lot of fresh blood from Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar to form an elite gang.
Although this group of people are too unruly, difficult to discipline, and even often cause trouble, their fighting power is indeed strong!
After possessing strong enough high-end combat power, the threat posed by He Ji in Xiang Yan's eyes dropped sharply, and his attitude naturally changed.
Ge Zhixiong suppressed his dissatisfaction and said, "That's what he said, but we can't just wait passively. In my opinion, it's better to take the initiative."
If he didn't still need Xiang Yan as the first line of defense against Hutchison, he would have turned against him long ago.
The reason is simple, it's just that Xiang Yan's character is too bad, and his words and actions show that he looks down on Ge Zhixiong and the Number Gang.
"It's probably unwise to take the initiative. Wei Longhao has just returned to Hong Kong Island and Hutchison's morale is high. If we choose to take action at this time, wouldn't we be walking into a trap?"
"As the saying goes, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, let alone a behemoth like Hutchison Whampoa."
"Opportunities will definitely appear. What we need to do now is to strengthen our defense and ensure that we don't give Wei Longhao any chance to counterattack."
Xiang Yan is still relatively rational in this regard, otherwise he would not have allowed Wei Longhao to snatch Yau Ma Tei and Tsim Sha Tsui from Xin Kee and live a carefree life until now.
"That's all, share any news in time."
Ge Zhixiong hung up the phone, his face gloomy and he fell into deep thought.
Xiang Yan casually put down his brother's phone and said with disdain, "It's right that the number gang is getting worse and worse. With such a cautious personality, you might as well go home and sell roasted sweet potatoes. Why do you want to be a big boss?"
