Feng Shui Secrets of the Entertainment Industry
Chapter 653, The Consultation of the Fourth Mother
Offline competitions are secondary; online competitions are the main focus.
Card and board games are the main source of profit.
The major mainstream card and board game platforms all have shares in the association, or are even controlled by the association itself.
What? You're saying you won't give it to me?
Give it a try!
The in-game currency on these types of gaming platforms cannot be exchanged for real money, which is perfectly reasonable and compliant with regulations.
However, there's always a "but".
On some online platforms such as Taobao, some people are buying game currency at a 10% discount for a long period of time.
This isn't an online game; you can't buy items with in-game currency. So, I'd like to ask, what kind of player is consuming so much in-game currency over such a long period?
Hehe, there's a lot more to it than meets the eye!
To ensure compliance and to diversify gameplay, they even went to Korea to learn from their experience.
In terms of offline activities, the Four Kingdoms region has the most variety, but when it comes to online activities, Korea is ahead of the curve.
Years later, the junket operator under the fourth wife launched Suncity. It wasn't a sudden inspiration; he saw how the games were played in mainland China and realized that it could be done online.
In addition to this company, there was another company that wanted to get a piece of the lucrative board game market. That company was none other than Tencent.
To this end, Tencent also held a Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game) tournament in Hainan.
Unfortunately, it was shut down after being reported by that company only a few times.
The charge against them was suspected gambling.
That's the most interesting thing about this world: people who are actually gambling report those who want to gamble.
Later, even in 2028, even after the big boss had passed away, his relatives still occupied the chess and card company, continuing their shady dealings for the same reasons they had done for twenty years.
This is a hen that lays golden eggs!
Returning to the present, regarding the idea of the fourth wife wanting to take a stake, the three of us are in unison: we shouldn't get involved.
There are too many deities in the mainland. If a fight really breaks out, the mounts will be fine, but the little devils who help the mounts will most likely not escape.
"I see!"
Fourth Aunt nodded in agreement with our persuasion.
"Sister Ling, you can't just know it, you have to take it to heart. Some things are not to be taken lightly. We can cause all sorts of trouble in Hong Kong, but we absolutely cannot cause trouble in the mainland!" Fatty Lin added, still worried.
Some businesses are suitable for certain individuals, while others are not; it's important to be aware of this.
For some, doing it is legal and compliant; for others, it is against the law.
Some things may seem insignificant on the scale, but once weighed, they can be worth a fortune, and being held accountable is inevitable.
"Don't worry, you three. Even if I want to have multiple burrows, I still need to find a reliable business!" Fourth Aunt laughed at the three of us and nodded at us.
"That's fine!"
Seeing Fourth Aunt's expression, I knew she had taken my words to heart, and I breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Sister Ling, don't blame us for being long-winded, but some circles are cannibalistic!"
"I understand!"
Fourth Wife glanced towards Stanley Ho's bedroom and said, "Politics is the dirtiest thing!"
"Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Let's go, I'll treat you to a meal to welcome you back. Tell me, what do you want to eat?"
Fourth Wife clapped her hands, signaling the end of the conversation.
Years later, the junket operator under the fourth wife was thrown out as a scapegoat.
"What do you want to eat?"
Lin Pangzi and I both looked at Long Nier at the same time.
"Fatty, Brother, Sister Ling, I want to eat Shaoxing wine chicken!" Long Nier said after thinking for a moment.
"Chirp!"
Xiao Ba also popped up, nodded, indicating that she wanted to eat too.
"Alright, let's have Shaoxing wine chicken then!" Fourth Aunt looked at Long Nier and Xiao Ba with doting eyes, and took out her phone to book a restaurant.
Ten minutes later, we set off for Wan Chai Yi Pin Hua Diao Chicken Restaurant to eat Hua Diao chicken.
This restaurant in Wan Chai is extremely famous on Hong Kong Island, specializing in Cantonese-style Shaoxing wine chicken, especially the soup base, which is fantastic.
Even though I don't drink soup, I think their soup base is rich and delicious.
In addition, the place is very private, so some wealthy people and celebrities often come here to dine.
Fourth Wife booked a medium-sized private room on the top floor, where you can enjoy the night view of Wan Chai while eating and drinking, which is very comfortable.
After the casserole was served, we chatted about our time in Shanghai while eating chicken.
I have to say, the chicken here is really delicious. The aroma of Shaoxing wine and the chicken meat blend together so well, it's incredibly fresh!
Little Ba was lying on the edge of the table, eating with slurping noises. Because he ate too fast, his little mouth was burned red.
"Hachi, eat slowly!"
Fourth Aunt smiled indulgently, served a small bowl of soup separately for Eighth Child, and set it aside to cool.
"Sister Ling, Mr. Lu's approach seems similar to Sister Minghua's!"
When discussing his experiences in Shanghai, Lu Jianbo's Lukang Group is inevitably mentioned.
"Much worse!"
Fourth Sister snorted and said, "Your sister Minghua and I have a boss behind us, and an entire casino supporting us. What does he have behind him? Judging by his methods, once the expansion slows down, or if any link in the chain breaks down, his group will inevitably collapse!"
"Sister Ling, I was originally thinking of investing in his company, but if you say that, I won't!" Fatty Lin said.
"It was the right decision not to vote!"
Fourth Aunt nodded in satisfaction and said, "Remember this: any investment that promises you an annualized return of more than ten percent is a scam!"
"Sister Ling, actually many people know this is a scam, they're just betting they won't be the last one in this game of musical chairs!" Fatty Lin said.
"Many things go wrong because of greed!" Fourth Wife sighed.
We ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was great.
Just as we were enjoying our meal, a commotion suddenly broke out outside.
"What happened?"
Fourth Aunt frowned.
"Sister Ling, I'll go take a look!"
Fatty Lin wiped his mouth, got up and walked outside.
"I'll go take a look too!" I said after thinking for a moment.
For an argument to occur in a restaurant like this, especially on the top floor, it must be something extraordinary.
"What do you mean by 'priced like this'? You're just trying to rip us off because there are so many of us!"
"We'll settle all expenses tonight; we won't pay a single penny more!"
As soon as the door opened, two sharp, drunken screams rang out.
Upon seeing us emerge, a waiter standing at the door greeted us respectfully: "Mr. Lin, Mr. Feng!"
"What happened?"
Fatty Lin gestured with his lip towards the noisy crowd in front of him.
"They said we overcharged them and wouldn't pay!" the waiter said, sounding aggrieved.
"Wow, a celebrity!"
Fatty Lin glanced around and saw two familiar faces.
"Even celebrities can't bully people!" the waiter whispered.
One of the two acquaintances was Xu Zhenzhu, the wife of Chen Yisen, who was known as the last king of singers in Hong Kong.
Speaking of which, Xu Zhenzhu is actually one of our clients.
There was also Lu Jingyi, the youngest son of the second wife.
Judging from their state, they were already drunk, all baring their teeth and brandishing their arms, as if they wanted to eat the waiter who tried to explain to them, and they were also unreasonable.
