The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 483 The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn’t stop
In a sea view villa.

The angry roar came through the window and echoed throughout the yard.

The men guarding the door outside the house couldn't help but shudder.

My boss hasn’t been so angry for many years.

Inside the room, the three Xiang brothers had cold and angry looks in their eyes. If looks could kill, the man in front of them would have been killed thousands of times by them.

"Old Eight, Old Nine, how do you think we should deal with this?" The middle-aged man in his fifties said in a deep voice, "If we don't handle this matter carefully, we will all be in danger of collapse!"

"Brother, this idiot did something stupid, just hand him over and calm his anger." Xiang Huasheng frowned and said, "We are trying to clean up our name and do legitimate business, hoping to get through this safely, but this idiot is trying to bring trouble upon us!"

Xiang Huaqiang nodded and said, "Myna is right. Now is a critical time. If we don't handle this matter well, all our previous efforts will go to waste! Our Xiang family will be in danger!"

The head of the entire Xiang family is the eldest brother Xiang Huayan.

Their father, Xiang Qian, was a major general of the Military Control Commission during the Republic of China period and a favorite student of Dai Li. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Xiang Qian went to Hong Kong to conduct espionage activities. In order to hide his identity, he founded the Ngee Ann Chamber of Commerce, the Taipingshan Sports Club, the Ngee Ann Company, the Sun On Company, etc. in Hong Kong, and made huge profits by sponsoring gambling and collecting protection fees. He is the founder of the Sun Yee On.

Naturally, there are hands stained with blood.

After their father was expelled and had to leave, the eldest son, Heung Wah-yen, took over the Sun Yee On and did his best to make it the largest gang in Hong Kong.

Moreover, sensing the crisis, Xiang Huayan learned his lesson and began to diversify his development. For example, he arranged for his second son Xiang Huarong to whitewash his identity and become a real estate businessman.

He also arranged for other brothers to clean up their business.

For example, these two brothers in front of us opened a film company and made movies.

But everyone in Hong Kong knows the background of the Xiang family, so it is inevitable that others in the business world will look at them with tinted glasses.

And their style of doing things also has its own unique style.

But since 1982, they have accelerated their transformation and whitewashing.

Because they are too aware of their situation. Once the revenge comes, they will either go overseas or be destroyed.

Compared to destruction, going overseas is not unacceptable.

It’s just that the Xiang family has a lot of assets in Hong Kong, and they are reluctant to give them up.

It is not easy to leave Hong Kong and build such a big business overseas.

But who could have thought that this bastard would do something that made them shudder.

The cause was simply because "One-Eyed Dragon" wanted to get the arcade machine at a low price and then resell it, and when the other party refused, he wanted to retaliate.

This damn one-eyed man, he doesn't even consider whether the other party is someone they can afford to offend.

"Boss, I was wrong! I was wrong!" said the one-eyed man in horror.

You know, he is also a big shot, usually managing thousands of younger brothers, and he has also survived through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

In the eyes of others, he is a big shot, but in front of these three big guys, he is just an insignificant little reptile. To crush him is no more difficult than to crush an ant.

"Wrong? Damn it!" Xiang Huaqiang picked up a chair and smashed it at him.

If it were before, he would have thought this mixture was pretty good.

But later he realized that doing that kind of thing would never be presentable or visible to the public.

So he has been working hard over the past few years.

This time, he also felt a huge crisis.

There is a giant behind this. There are 2,000 people working in the Hong Kong Security Company, and all of these 3,000 people are equipped with weapons.

What’s the use of having so many followers under him?

His elite personnel are only equipped with pistols, but other security companies have pistols for every person, automatic rifles, and even machine guns.

The most important thing is that next year will be 1987! What they fear most is a reckoning later!

This is simply a reminder to the other party to remember to settle the score later.

Have someone drag the one-eyed man out and lock him up.

"Brother, do you think we should ask someone to come forward and ask the other party to not misunderstand?" Xiang Huaqiang looked at Xiang Huayan, "This is a misunderstanding, it's not our intention!"

"Ask someone to come forward? Who?" Xiang Huayan took a puff of his cigar and looked worried.

Even if you are inviting people, they have to be of sufficient size.

Otherwise you won’t even be able to see the person’s face.

"Yeah, didn't Ni Kuang also want to find someone before, but ended up having to go to Canada?" Xiang Huaqiang said.

The harsher Ni Kuang cursed back then, the more he regretted it later.

You have status and make money in Hong Kong, but you are nothing in Canada. The foreigners don’t care whether you are a writer or a literati.

"Fok Ying-tung, Fok Ying-tung has always had a good relationship with the mainland. Not long ago, Fok Ying-tung's Golden Dragon Technology Group went public in the United States, and now its market value is as high as 250 billion US dollars." Xiang Huasheng said, "I heard that Fok Ying-tung has a great influence in the mainland. Every time he goes to Beijing, he is received by the leaders above. In 1984, he was still standing on the city wall."

It can be said that Ho Ying-Tong is someone that countless people envy and admire.

Ho Ying-tung was very rich back then, but because of his stance, he was targeted and even had to sell his office building at a low price.

At that time, many people sneered at Ho Ying-tung and thought he was really stupid.

But in recent years, it has been proved that Ho Ying-tung's choice was correct.

This year, with Jinlong Technology Group's listing in the United States with a market value of up to US$250 billion, this influence is even greater.

Henry Fok is undoubtedly the richest man in Hong Kong, and the Fok family is also the richest family in Hong Kong.

There is even news that in 1987, Henry Fok will be the first person in Hong Kong.

"Ho Ying-Tong is an old fox. It's not easy to ask him to come forward!" Xiang Huayan took a deep puff of his cigar.

Xiang Huaqiang knew very well that people like Ho Ying-tung were extremely daring.

In that situation back then, you had to fight with your life at stake.

Now everyone exaggerates about Ho Ying-tung, but the risk Ho Ying-tung took back then was huge. It is no exaggeration to say that he would have lost his head if he was not careful.

This kind of person is not a simple person.

They asked Henry Fok to come forward, but why should Henry Fok help them?

"Two years ago, his son had some problems, and we helped him out."

It is said that a hero father will have a hero son, but there are also many cases where a father is a tiger and his son is a dog.

The sons of the Huo family are all romantic men. This can be seen from the fact that the eldest son of the Huo family managed to seduce Miss Hong Kong.

The richer and more powerful you are, the more fun you have and the more you spend.

As you play, problems will arise.

The Xiang family is an expert in handling such matters.

They are not good at things that happen in the open, but dealing with things in the dark is what they are good at.

On the surface, Hong Kong looks prosperous, with rapid social and economic development and thriving economy. But if you look beneath the surface, you can see countless ugliness.

Hong Kong is a paradise for the rich and a hell for the poor.

Here, a few deaths are nothing. People are tied into bags and thrown into the sea every day.
