Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon

Chapter 248 A Charge Through
Upon hearing Li Yaohua's words, no one dared to delay and immediately got up and left the cell.

Once everyone escaped the dark prison, they all felt like they had survived a catastrophe.

Many people even burst into tears.

Vice President Hu soon noticed the American standing next to them.

"Yaohua, who is this...?" Vice President Hu asked Randolph beside him.

Li Yaohua explained, "This is a reporter from the Miami Herald in the United States. He's here to help us."

Everyone was pleasantly surprised to hear Li Yaohua say that.

Is it possible for them to get their assets back?

Upon realizing this, everyone's gaze towards Randolph changed.

Randolph was oblivious to the stares of others, lost in ecstasy.

As long as my report can be successfully sent back, I will definitely become famous.

He might even win the Pulitzer Prize.

With their own thoughts in mind, both sides quickly returned to the hotel next to the airport.

But before they could even enter, they were stopped.

The hotel was run by Englishmen, so naturally they wouldn't allow Li Yaohua to send these people into the hotel.

Even the hotel manager secretly called Richard.

Seeing this, everyone's faces turned very grim.

At this moment, Li Yaohua suddenly had a flash of inspiration and whispered a few words to Randolph beside him.

Randolph nodded, then immediately pulled out his camera and began filming the people blocking the hotel.

The hotel manager was surprised to find a reporter mixed in with the group, and his expression immediately changed.

Li Yaohua said to the hotel manager, "This gentleman next to me is Mr. Randolph, the deputy editor of the Miami Herald. He has been secretly interviewing in Brunei for a long time."

"Mr. Manager, you don't want Mr. Randolph to publish what you're doing in the Miami Herald, do you?"

Li Yaohua's threat was blatant, but the hotel manager immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

At this point, Randolph chimed in, "Mr. Manager, what you're doing is not the behavior of a gentleman."

The hotel manager had no choice but to nod and let Li Yaohua and the others in.

Once inside the hotel, Randolph started editing the news, while Li Yaohua led everyone into the room he had booked.

After everyone else went to find a place to rest, Vice President Hu and Mr. Song, two veterans of the Citizens' Society, found Li Yaohua.

"Yaohua, can this foreign reporter really help us?" Vice President Hu asked with some skepticism.

Li Yaohua looked at the two men with a hint of amusement and said, "That depends on what aspect you two are referring to. If it's about getting the international community to condemn Richard, then Mr. Randolph is absolutely capable of doing that."

"Don't try to fool me, kid. You know we want more than just this," Mr. Song said irritably.

Li Yaohua said with a smile, "It's not that there's no way, but... there's a lot to do. We've already broken ties with these natives of Brunei. Either they exterminate us, or... we need to replace the Sultan of Brunei with someone else."

"You wouldn't be thinking of... hiss." Vice President Hu looked at Li Yaohua with a surprised expression.

Li Yaohua said calmly, "Why not? We are also Bruneians, and the Citizens' Society is a political party in Brunei. We naturally have the right to choose our own leaders, don't we?"

“But what do you want to do? We have nothing left now,” Mr. Song said, frowning.

Li Yaohua smiled and said, "It's very simple. You just need to issue a statement, and I'll take care of the rest."

"You?" Vice President Hu looked at Li Yaohua with some suspicion, clearly not quite believing his words.

Li Yaohua wasn't in a hurry: "Please give it some more thought, seniors."

He then walked out of the room, leaving the two of them staring at each other in bewilderment.

After leaving the house, Li Yaohua immediately informed He Guorong: "Mr. He, you can inform Mr. Chen to start the operation."

"Boss, good news, we've got Li Yaohua sorted out."

Wei Li happily pushed open Chen Jiajun's office door and said with a loud laugh.

Chen Jiajun smiled and nodded, saying, "Very good. Let Doum personally lead the team, along with the security personnel, to Brunei."

……

Two days later, the Miami Herald in the United States launched its own attack.

Randolph's footage in Brunei became a global sensation.

The British colonies, in particular, were all abuzz with excitement.

"I can't believe that such inhumane things still happen in this day and age."

"It is clear that England's claims of human rights and democracy are just empty words."

"So many dark things were hidden in such a small kingdom as Brunei."

"Hell is empty, all the devils are here on earth."

These attacks, like a tidal wave, left not only Richard from Brunei completely bewildered, but even those from England were caught off guard.

Almost immediately, Chen Ningjie issued a statement saying that what Sultan Richard of Brunei did had nothing to do with England.

Meanwhile, the minister in charge of Brunei affairs was also directly arrested and held accountable.

He never imagined that a country with a population of less than 50,000 could pull off such a huge thing.

However, England's actions had little effect on others.

In particular, the United States, a former British colony, has been relentlessly pursuing Britain in the international community.

Many politicians, athletes, and even Hollywood stars in the United States have spoken out in condemnation.

Then came England's old rival, France, and the best way to describe it was as kicking a man when he was down. Meanwhile, in Brunei...

Inside Richard's palace, everyone was as silent as statues.

The situation has become very bad for them now; some self-proclaimed "world police" might come knocking on their door.

"Damn it, how did things turn out like this?" Richard was also completely baffled by the whole thing.

Richard's question was quickly answered by his aides: "Sultan, when we raided the black jail a few days ago to rescue those Chinese businessmen, there was an American journalist with us."

"What?" Richard was immediately furious. "Where did they find this American reporter?"

The aide said helplessly, "I'm afraid it's that Li Yaohua."

"That damned bastard, he should have died in that dark cell back then." Richard was furious. "I'm going to kill him, I'm going to cut off his head and use it as a chamber pot."

The aide said helplessly, "Your Majesty the Sultan, this... may not be possible."

"Why?" Richard's eyes widened.

The aide spread his hands and said, "These guys are all hiding in the hotels run by the English right now, and they're not letting our people in."

"Why?" Richard suddenly felt extremely aggrieved.

It should be noted that he gave almost half of the family fortune he seized to those English foreigners.

He did this in the hope that the English would become his backers.

The aide said with a bitter face, "We've received word from England that this matter is too complicated, and they want us to clean up our own mess."

"These treacherous bastards!" Richard roared in fury, smashing everything he could find to pieces.

Richard was really determined: "Since those Englishmen took the money but didn't keep their word, let's just send men to storm the hotel and kill all the Chinese."

"Oh? Sultan, are you really going to do this?" The aide looked horrified. "This will probably cause dissatisfaction in many countries."

"What's there to be afraid of?" Richard said nonchalantly. "I'm already being called a tyrant anyway, so I might as well become a real dictator!"

The staff knew that Richard was beyond persuasion and could only sigh and leave.

Unlike Richard, a brute, the staff member was a highly educated man.

It is clear that Brunei's strength is simply insufficient for him to be a dictator.

His best fate would be to be annexed by other neighboring countries, and then Brunei would cease to exist.

So after much consideration, the staff informed Richard's men.

He drove himself directly to the hotel owned by the English.

The hotel manager felt like he was on a hot seat, receiving countless strange phone calls.

He was instructed to make sure that Richard's men did not set foot in the hotel.

Although he had no choice, the hotel manager had to comply, because he couldn't afford to offend the person on the other end of the phone.

Just as he was frowning and hoping for a quick resolution, he suddenly saw a car drive into the parking lot, and then Richard's aides got out of the car.

"What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you you're not allowed into the hotel?"

The manager frowned and said, "Let's go."

As he spoke, the manager prepared to have the hotel security kick the staff member out.

The aide quickly waved his hand and said, "I'm not here for Richard's matter, but for something else."

"Speak quickly if you have something to say," the manager said impatiently.

The aide lowered his voice and said, "Richard has already gathered his men and is preparing to storm the hotel."

"What did you say?" The manager was taken aback. "You're not joking, are you?"

The aide spread his hands and said, "Am I joking at all?"

The manager was now completely flustered, pacing anxiously back and forth: "That damn madman, what is he trying to do? This is going to cause a huge mess."

“Richard has gone mad. I suggest you evacuate everyone in the hotel immediately, or he really will kill people,” the aide said hastily.

Just as the manager was about to agree, a voice suddenly came from behind them: "No need, we have no intention of leaving."

"Are you all crazy?" The manager turned around and saw that it was Li Yaohua and his group.

Li Yaohua calmly replied, "Don't worry, the horn of counterattack has been sounded, and our reinforcements have arrived."

"What?" The hotel manager and his staff stared wide-eyed.

At this moment, in a valley on the road to the airport.

A group of heavily armed men were already hidden on both sides of the road.

"Are you sure that idiot Richard will take this route?" Doom asked He Guorong, who was standing next to him, while carrying a heavy machine gun.

To be honest, seeing the menacing look on Doom's men, Ho Kwok-wing didn't think there would be any suspense in this battle.

"That guy is an idiot, a piece of trash who doesn't know anything."

Doom scratched his head and said, "That's true. The whole country only has a little over 50,000 people, and the army only has 1,000. Even a large dragon and phoenix statue in Hong Kong would cost more than that."

"Try to spare Richard's life later; this guy is still very useful," He Guorong reminded him.

Doom flashed a bright white smile and said, "No problem."

Just as Doom said, the number of Hong Kong gangsters who fight on the streets is greater than the number of Richard's men.

There's really no need for all of Chen Jiajun's men to be present with this many people.

With just over two hundred mercenaries under Doom's command, he could roam freely in Brunei.

Therefore, there were no specific tactical details for this battle. When Doom saw the convoy approaching, he simply led his men and charged straight at it.
