When I walked into the banquet hall, it was already full of distinguished guests and friends.
People gathered in twos and threes, chatting and laughing.
When Shao Yifu saw Shen Dong and Li Xinxin coming in, his eyes lit up and he immediately went to greet them.
Although this charity auction was organized by the government, the organizer was the Hong Kong Red Cross.
The president of the Hong Kong Red Cross is Shao Yifu.
"Mr. Shen, Ms. Li, welcome to our charity auction." Shao Yifu laughed.
Shen Dong acted very modestly and said, "Mr. Shao, this is my first time attending a charity event. Please take care of me."
Shao Yifu said, "Mr. Shen, you are too polite. The personal charity foundation founded by Ms. Li Xinxin is well-known in Hong Kong Island. The charity projects cover all orphanages in Hong Kong, which has significantly improved the lives of the children. Such a great act of kindness is really admirable. Speaking of care, it should be you two who care about our Red Cross."
Shen Dong smiled and said, "Mr. Shao, your compliment makes me blush."
Li Xinxin said: "Husband, Mr. Shao has donated a total of 500 million Hong Kong dollars over the past few decades. We are still far behind."
Shen Dong smiled and said, "Then work harder and make sure to catch up with Mr. Shao."
Shao Yifu laughed loudly and said, "With Mr. Shen's financial resources, a mere 500 million yuan in donations is really nothing."
At this time, a powerful young man from the United States walked over.
He was about thirty years old, handsome, with a pair of deep and charming blue eyes.
Judging from appearance alone, this Eagle Sauce man is much more handsome than Shen Dong.
"Are you Shen Dong, the president of Tengfei Group?"
Seeing the man's arrogant face, Shen Dong smiled slightly and said, "Yes. Who are you?"
The man said, "I am Philip Buck, the head of Hang Seng Bank."
In fact, Shen Dong was no stranger to this Buck.
Some time ago, Bruce of Hang Seng Bank died in a bombing by a Black Hawk attack helicopter. Shen Dong has been keeping a close eye on this bank that controls 40% of Hong Kong's finances.
Shen Dong knew about Philip Buck as soon as he took office, but he had never met him.
In addition to him, Shen Dong also has detailed information on other new leaders of the Eagle Sauce Group.
As the boss of Hang Seng Bank, Philip Buck is sought after by countless businessmen.
His move immediately attracted everyone's attention.
When they saw that the target was Shen Dong, the businessmen around them quieted down and pricked up their ears.
Both of them are big names in the Hong Kong financial market, and any piece of news could bring considerable business opportunities to everyone.
What no one expected was that their relationship seemed to be much worse than they imagined.
Philip Buck had no intention of shaking hands, so Shen Dong naturally would not be so eager to please someone who was not his friend. He said calmly, "Mr. Buck, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Philip Buck said, "I just wanted to see what kind of person the famous richest man in Hong Kong Island is. To be honest, I am a little disappointed after meeting you today, because I really don't see anything special about you."
Shen Dong smiled and said, "What else can this prove except that you are blind?"
"puff"
Shao Yifu, who was standing next to him, almost spit out the red wine in his mouth when he heard Shen Dong's words.
He never expected that Shen Dong would scold him so directly.
Others also tried their best to control themselves from laughing.
Philip Buck was a little annoyed and said, "You are so rude."
Shen Dong said, "You were the first to say that. I was just fighting back. Mr. Buck, let me advise you that this is Hong Kong Island, not Eagle Sauce. I admit that your Buck family is quite powerful in Eagle Sauce Country, but this is not your capital to act like a big shot in front of me, Shen Dong."
At this point, Shen Dong leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Don't forget how your predecessor died. If you dare to provoke me, I promise that you will not live for more than three days."
Philip Buck's face was extremely ugly, and he said, "You are too arrogant."
Shen Dong said coldly: "Thank you for your compliment. Mr. Buck, I have your information. Compared with your predecessor, Mr. Cruz, you are far behind in both ability and performance. If you were not a member of the Buck family, you would not even be qualified to stand in front of me."
After saying that, Shen Dong nodded to Shao Yifu and took Li Xinxin away.
Philip Buck stood there with a cold look in his eyes.
"That's fucking awesome."
"Mr. Shen is worthy of being the richest man in Hong Kong Island, as he dares to scold Mr. Buck."
"The Eagle Sauce Group and Mr. Shen have always been enemies. Mr. Shen would never take a mere Buck seriously."
"There is one thing that Mr. Shen said that is right. Without his family, Mr. Buck is really nothing. He cannot be compared with Mr. Shen who started from scratch."
......
Everyone was talking about it.
Chapter 546 Shen Dong’s Creativity
"Adong, you have offended someone again." Jian Aowei said with a smile, holding a glass of red wine.
Shen Dong shrugged and said, "Buck is arrogant and conceited. I mainly want to teach him a lesson. Besides, there is no possibility of reconciliation between me and the Eagle Sauce Consortium. It doesn't matter whether I offend them or not."
Jian Aowei said: "That's true."
Shen Dong asked, "Uncle Jian, don't you always say that you have no money? Why are you doing charity?"
Jian Aowei glared and said, "Compared to you, I'm certainly not a rich man. But compared to others, I'm still okay."
Shen Dong smiled and said, "Which collection do you like?"
Jian Aowei took a sip of red wine and said, "Chaor Li's Leica camera."
Shen Dong looked around and asked, "Li Chaoren is here too? Why didn't I see him?"
Jian Aowei said: "It's not Li Chaoren, it's his son Li Zeju. Look, he is walking towards us."
Shen Dong turned his head and saw Li Zeju walking towards him while nodding to the people around him and greeting them.
Shen Dong's heart moved, and he said, "Uncle Jian, did you arrange this?"
Jian Aowei said softly: "Li Zeju has something important to discuss with you. I was just commissioned by the North to be a middleman."
Shen Dong raised his eyebrows, and a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.
Li Zeju said, "Mr. Jian, Mr. Shen, Ms. Li, hello."
Jian Aowei smiled and said, "We are all acquaintances, there is no need to be so polite. Xinxin, I will take you to meet some senior officials of the Red Cross."
Li Xinxin knew that Jian Aowei was deliberately sending her away, so she nodded and said, "Okay, thank you Uncle Jian."
As the two of them left, Shen Dong asked, "Mr. Li, what's the matter?"
Li Zeju said bluntly: "Our three major families are preparing to join forces again to compete for the shares of Hang Seng Bank. I wonder if Mr. Shen is willing to help us?"
Last year, the four major families played a trick of "making a feint to the east and attacking in the west", but not only did they fail, but they also let Shen Dong get a big bargain and take over the New Territories warehouse.
They still hold 14% of Hang Seng Bank's shares. If they launch another acquisition, they may succeed if they do it with intention or without any intention.
However, Shen Dong did not intend to help.
His next target is the Japanese stock market.
As long as the plan succeeds, Shen Dong's profits will far exceed Hang Seng Bank.
After all, after some growth, the total market value of Hang Seng Bank is only 12 billion US dollars.
Shen Dong said: "I won't help you, and certainly not Hang Seng Bank."
Li Zeju frowned and said, "Mr. Shen, taking over Hang Seng Bank will have a vital impact on our local financial industry."
Shen Dong smiled and said, "If it was a few months later, I might help you. Now I'm sorry, I have more important things to do."
Li Zeju did not argue any further and said, "Okay, I respect your decision. Mr. Shen, our Li family has done a lot of bad things to you before, please forgive us."
Shen Dong waved his hand and said, "Since the day your father gave me 10% of the shares of Hong Kong Island Electric Company, I have forgotten the past grievances. Mr. Li, we are both from the Chinese lineage, and I wish you success."
Li Zeju thanked him and left.
The three major families didn't care whether Shen Dong was willing to help or not.
What they care about is that Shen Dong does not go to help Hang Seng Bank.
With Shen Dong's current strength, if he were to join forces with Hang Seng Bank, the three major families would have no hope of success at all.
"Brother Dong, long time no see."
Zhou Minhui and Zhao Yazhi stood in front of Shen Dong, smiling as beautifully as flowers.
Seeing the two people's heartfelt smiles, Shen Dong remembered what Ou Yongen said and felt that these two beauties in the entertainment industry seemed to be really interested in him.
Damn, when did my charm become so great?
Shen Dong couldn't help feeling a little proud.
"It's been a while since I last saw you. I heard you all went to Asia Television?"
Zhou Minhui nodded and said, "That's right. Brother Dong, you are one of the owners of Asia Television. Please take care of me in the future."
Shen Dong smiled and said, "You two, the most popular stars in Hong Kong, have chosen Asia Television, which is simply the greatest recognition of the television station. I believe that Mr. Qiu will not treat you unfairly. Isn't that right, Mr. Qiu?"
Qiu Defeng, who had just come over, laughed and said, "Of course. Miss Zhou and Miss Zhao are now the pillars of our Asia Television. I promise that I will give my full support."
Zhou Minhui and Zhao Yazhi said in unison: "Thank you, Mr. Qiu."
Shen Dong asked, "Boss Qiu, the TV station has been doing well recently. The TV series "Love and Friendship" has made Infinite TV completely helpless. Even the beauties in my family are very obsessed with this TV series."
Qiu Defeng sighed and said, "We are the only one that this TV station can boast of. Other programs, especially variety shows, are no match for Infinite TV."
Shen Dong's mind moved, and he smiled and said, "I do have an idea, I wonder if it will work?"
Qiu Defeng said: "What's your idea? Tell me about it."
Shen Dong said: "In the past, I always dreamed of becoming a millionaire one day and having endless money to spend."
Qiu Defeng smiled and said, "Your dream has come true."
Shen Dong said: "But most people don't succeed. Have you ever thought about helping ordinary people realize their dreams of becoming millionaires? At least, there will be a chance."
Qiu Defeng's eyes flashed, and he said, "You mean to organize a variety show, and once it is successful, you will give the other party a million Hong Kong dollars."
Shen Dong nodded and said, "Everyone who answers all the fifteen questions correctly will be rewarded with one million Hong Kong dollars. Once this program comes out, I believe the whole of Hong Kong will be crazy about it."
Qiu Defeng couldn't help but be delighted and said, "Good suggestion. This program is very practical. Mr. Shen, can you tell me more about it?"
Shen Dong briefly explained the rules of the popular variety show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" in his previous life, and said, "In order to increase the ratings, you can also invite one or two celebrities to participate in each episode. But the central idea cannot be changed, that is, to make money by answering questions."
Qiu Defeng exclaimed: "Mr. Shen, it is a great loss for the TV station that you don't plan variety shows."
Zhao Yazhi and Zhou Minhui nodded at the same time, looking at Shen Dong with extremely hot eyes.
Shen Dong shrugged and said, "I'm just providing an idea. Whether it will succeed or not depends on you professionals."
Qiu Defeng smiled and said, "I feel this idea will definitely succeed. Ms. Zhao, Ms. Zhou, please keep it a secret. I don't want Infinity TV to know about it and get there first."
When Zhao Yazhi and Zhou Minhui heard this, they immediately made a promise.
Qiu Defeng was an old hand, so he could see that these two popular female stars were interested in Shen Dong, so he found an excuse and left.
Chapter 547 Threatening the Rich Second Generation
What Qiu Defu didn't expect was that just after he walked a short distance, a young man took his place.
"Yazhi, so you are here."
This man was Li Zhaoshan’s second son, Li Chaojie.
A trace of disgust flashed across Zhao Yazhi's eyes, and she said, "Hello, Mr. Li."
Li Chaojie said: "Didn't I tell you? You can just call me Chaojie or Brother Jie."
Zhao Yazhi forced a smile and said, "Mr. Li, I'm just an actor. I really don't have the courage to call you that."
Li Chaojie is a playboy. No one knows how many girlfriends he has had, including many female celebrities.
Previously on a film set, Li Chaojie saw Zhao Yazhi and was immediately struck by her beauty and began to pursue her madly.
But in private, he was still entangled with those girlfriends and partied almost every night.
