He thought about it.
He decided to personally travel to the United States to negotiate peace with Chen Dao.
……
at the same time.
Hong Kong Island.
sunset.
Xiang Huaqiang's birthday banquet was not over yet.
at dinner.
A group of high-ranking officials from Hong Kong Island toasted Chan Tao.
at this time.
Jimmy walked in and whispered something in Chen Dao's ear.
"Oh?"
After hearing Jimmy's words, Chen Dao's lips curled up slightly.
"Let him in."
immediately.
Hughesman appeared at the banquet.
He fawned over Chen Dao amidst the astonished and suspicious gazes of the crowd.
Everyone present was shocked.
Especially Li Ka-shing.
Are even bigwigs in the US trying to curry favor with this guy?
Chapter 173 Chen Dao's Power Moves Li Jiaxin
All eyes turned to Chen Dao's direction at the same time.
They wanted to see what the Americans were really there for.
Under the gaze of everyone.
Hughesman, accompanied by two henchmen, walked up to Chen Dao.
Some people who were far away couldn't hear what he and Chen Dao were saying, but they could see it.
Hughesman appeared to greet them first, then waved to his two henchmen behind him.
The two henchmen then placed two leather suitcases in front of Chen Dao.
The suitcase was opened.
Everyone saw the crisp, green US dollars inside the suitcase.
Then they saw Hughesman, while smiling obsequiously, pointing at the US dollars and saying something to Chen Dao.
Although they couldn't hear what was being said, everyone understood from Hughesman's expression that he was probably trying to curry favor with Chen Dao!
In the subsequent introduction, word spread quickly that Hughesman was representing the United States government.
For a while.
Everyone was even more shocked.
Why were the U.S. officials so polite to Chen Dao?
Isn't this too unbelievable?
At a nearby dining table, Li Ka-shing, representatives of the Fok family, and other business tycoons from Hong Kong Island gathered.
They were all looking in Chen Dao's direction.
Although he didn't say anything.
But everyone's expression was somewhat complicated.
When Chen Daogang first said he wanted to do business, the bigwigs in the Hong Kong business circle didn't take him seriously at all.
Even if Chen Dao achieved some success later, they would only think that Chen Dao was lucky.
But later they gradually realized that they and Chen Dao were not on the same level at all.
Especially now.
Even Americans treat him with such respect.
Everyone understood that this man not only held a pivotal position in the organization, but also had no rivals in the business world.
The Huo family representative looked at Li Jiacheng, whose face was solemn, and couldn't help but whisper, "Mr. Li, before we came, the head of the family specifically instructed me to remind you of a few things when I saw you."
Hear this.
Li Jiacheng frowned and looked at the Huo family representative, "I wonder what the Huo family head wants to say."
Hear the words.
The Huo family representative then spoke in a low voice: "The patriarch asked me to remind you. This Chen Dao is no ordinary person. Whether it is his prestige in Hong Kong or his influence in the triads, it is something that we businessmen cannot contend with. The patriarch advises you to abandon some of your ideas as soon as possible."
Hear this.
Li Jiacheng took a deep breath.
He naturally understood what the Huo family head meant.
Previously, when Chen Dao Technology Company and the shipping project had just started, Li Ka-shing had specifically discussed Chen Dao with the Huo family patriarch.
At the time, the two of them jointly concluded that Chen Dao was no ordinary person.
If his business really takes off, it will pose a significant threat to business people like them.
Therefore, whenever they had the chance, the two of them would each set their sights on Chen Dao's company.
But now, the Huo family patriarch's words clearly express his attitude.
The Huo family patriarch was scared.
He was also frightened by Chen Dao.
Saying this to Li Jiacheng was also a way of persuading myself to give up on my idea of Chen Dao Company.
Think of this.
Li Jiacheng glanced in Chen Dao's direction, and although he was somewhat unwilling, he still nodded silently.
At this moment.
He also sensed the terror of Chen Dao.
A person whom even the United States is so wary of.
It was simply beyond his ability to handle.
……
And at this time.
On another table.
A host of stars, including Jackie Chan, Andy Lau, Li Jiaxin, and Leslie Cheung, sat together.
They had all overheard the discussions around them.
I know that the American was an official representative of the United States.
Seeing Hughesman's respectful attitude towards Chen Dao, everyone couldn't help but sigh.
"Has Mr. Chen's influence on Weishi grown so much that even US officials have to present him with gifts when they meet him?"
"Mr. Chen's reputation as the Emperor of Hong Kong is indeed well-deserved. This time, I'm afraid even the United States is extremely wary of him."
"It's really hard to imagine how Mr. Chen managed to do this."
"..."
Listening to the sentiments of the crowd.
Li Jiaxin looked in Chen Dao's direction, her eyes filled with envy and respect.
At this moment, she began to understand what it meant to be the "Emperor of Hong Kong Island".
And aside.
Leslie Cheung was also somewhat surprised at this moment.
A gangster, yet the United States treats him with utmost respect.
This kind of existence.
He is absolutely the true emperor of Hong Kong.
aside.
At this point, the agent was oblivious to the occasion.
