Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

There is also an unwritten rule in the Hong Kong high society: no struggle is allowed to involve family members; otherwise, one will be ostracized by the high society and may even be collectively blacklisted.

This was also the collective opinion of the four major families and the Huo family, leading a group of powerful figures. Who doesn't have a few business rivals? Because conflicts in the business world can affect family members, no one can escape them. Therefore, it was passed unanimously!

The news of Tao Wei's visit to him could not be kept secret from those who were interested. Moreover, the Tao family had connections with the Li family. If they were to harm He Yuzhu's daughter, not only would He Yuzhu himself go crazy, but the four major families and the Huo family would not stand idly by. Every industry has its unspoken rules, at least in the business world!

Conversely, once they start working on He Yuzhu's daughter, whether they succeed or not is still unknown, but one thing is certain: no one will be willing to cooperate with them in the future.
So what if Ho Yu-chu gives in? Will he face collective rejection from the Hong Kong Chinese community? Isn't that ridiculous? What a fucking idiot!
"Dong Yong, I can bring people over from Polar Bear. It doesn't matter if no one on Hong Kong Island is willing to make money; there are plenty of desperados."

Think about it, wasn't your family the fuse that He Yuzhu ignited? As long as we take over the He Group, we can go back openly and legitimately. The He Group already has over three thousand employees!

Tao Wei smiled meaningfully, whether he was testing Dong Yong or really thought so, Dong Yong couldn't figure it out!

"Brother Tao, would you like to develop your career on Hong Kong Island? It's the largest city in Asia and one of the world's leading financial centers."

Some people here are so poor they can barely survive, while others live a life of luxury and extravagance. Isn't this the place we all yearn for?

Helpless, Dong Yong could only try a different approach, attempting to persuade this somewhat crazy former young master of the capital to pull back from the brink.
If Tao Wei continues to do as he pleases, Dong Yong will have no choice but to leak information and invest all his wealth in Hong Kong. In the end, Tao Wei will be blacklisted by the Hong Kong high society, which is impossible!

"What do you mean? Just say what you mean, why beat around the bush?"

Tao Wei frowned slightly. Was this still the same lackey who used to follow him around like that? When did he start daring to speak to him like that?
"Brother Tao, there is an unwritten rule, or tacit understanding, in the high society of Hong Kong Island, especially in the Chinese business circle: any business activity or hostility must not involve family members; otherwise, they will be collectively ostracized or even blacklisted."

Our conflict with He Yuzhu stemmed solely from business dealings, not from a blood feud that could lead to the extermination of our clan. Moreover, He Yuzhu maintains good relations with families like the Huo family...

"Brother Tao, even if you don't consider He Yuzhu's influence in China, you should at least consider the reaction in Hong Kong, right? If we make a move, we'll have to leave Hong Kong, otherwise, we'll go bankrupt!"

Dong Yong was helpless. He Yuzhu was unfathomable. If you think you can use He Qian to control the He Group, you're mistaken.
The Dong family also has some protégés and former associates in the capital. It is said that over the years, there have been people who have tried to embarrass the He Group, but without exception, all those who have made things difficult for the He family have been taken down for one reason or another.
Most importantly, the He family is very disciplined and cannot find any weaknesses. Having connections is useless. This shows that He Yuzhu has powerful figures backing him in Beijing.
Dong Yong believes that even if the target is He Yuzhu himself, it should not be He Yuzhu's family, otherwise it would be digging their own grave, as if they were not going to die soon enough. In any case, the Dong family cannot afford to gamble!
"The problem is, do we have any other options besides this? He Yuzhu's strength is undeniable; normal business methods may not be enough to defeat him."
The polar bear has the support of the Vinogradov family, and there are also a group of families led by the Huo family in Hong Kong. Not to mention the capital, the Tao family has been around for so long and there has been no news of them.
"You have no idea how terrifying Vinogradov is, the Huo family's influence in Hong Kong's business world is unparalleled, and He Yuzhu's business methods are even more unpredictable..." Tao Wei's expression changed as soon as he said this. Bang Geng, that jinx, it was Bang Geng who brought this terrible existence upon himself. Am I wronged or not?!

"Brother Tao, before He Yuzhu targets us, we just need to be on guard. Don't you want to enter the entertainment industry? I think thinking about how to get involved with Warner is much better than wasting time provoking He Yuzhu!"

Dong Yong was exasperated. Knowing He Yuzhu's capabilities, why would he still try to take advantage of He Qian? Did he have a death wish? Judging from the last time, He Yuzhu didn't seem to have any intention of eliminating them, otherwise he wouldn't have given them a warning.

Now, all you need to do is develop yourself quickly. Others are powerful and haven't bothered you, but you're actively courting them. Is that stupid?

Tao Wei rolled his eyes. He didn't know why, but he just didn't like He Yuzhu. The most important thing was that this person was hostile to him and he always felt that He Yuzhu would do something to him.

However, Dong Yong's words also make sense. The key now is how to gain a foothold in Hong Kong. The Li family has already acted as an intermediary, contacting Warner's general manager Wu Zhengyuan, hoping to reach some cooperation agreements with this bigwig.
At the very least, it would allow Hua to take a stake and establish a film and television company. The entertainment industry in Hong Kong is developing rapidly and is quick to generate revenue; this is the emerging industry that Tao Weineng could think of.

As for traditional industries, after thinking about it, I decided to give up. Hong Kong Island is an island with limited resources. Traditional industries have long been developed by John Bull and the Chinese business community. Forcing them in would be unsustainable. If the Li family doesn't want to support them, is there any room for development?

"The Li family helped arrange an appointment with Warner's General Manager Wu Zhengyuan. Let's take a look first. It would be unwise to enter without the support of a leading company."
Look at Ho's Entertainment. They've been in the industry for so long, and they don't have a single noteworthy work. They're just a small company!

Tao Wei was dismissive. He believed that doing business required getting big companies to invest. As long as someone was backing you up, even big companies might not dare to act recklessly, but opening up distribution channels was not a problem.
Conversely, it's difficult to make a breakthrough by going it alone; this applies to all industries. Why did the polar bear cooperate with that playboy Vladimir? Wasn't it because of the Vladimir family's status?
"Hehe, He's Entertainment is definitely not that simple. As far as I know, they have signed quite a few artists, all of whom are singers."
He Yuzhu didn't seem to be in a hurry. He not only offered the most generous contracts, but also had his artists participate in professional training.

It seems they're planning something big. Just watch, given He Yuzhu's experience, he'll definitely pull off something big in a short time!

Dong Yong scoffed, Tao Wei was thinking too simply. Since coming to Hong Kong Island, he had plenty of time to collect relevant information. He was shocked by what he found.
It could be said that, besides the He family, I myself was the one who understood He Yuzhu best throughout the entire land. This man seemed unpredictable and whimsical, but not a single action of his was superfluous! (End of Chapter)
