Chapter 232 Guest of Honor
The Hong Kong Antique Bureau is different from that in the mainland. Sitting in the Tianzi Pavilion is considered a VIP guest, and here it is a VIP room.
Han Chunming sighed in his heart. Although he came to Hong Kong this time with the intention of exploring the market here, he never thought that he would be targeted by someone, and by two major groups at that.
It seems that these two groups have to give face even if they don't want to.
"What? Uncle Seven is getting involved too?" Anthrax looked at Shitouzi with obvious hostility.
Shitouzi didn't care at all. He smiled and said, "How can it be considered as interfering? We should stay out of each other's business. Isn't that an obvious rule? It's just a coincidence that we happened to be together today."
"Really?" Tanhu snorted coldly, then looked at Han Chunming, "Mr. Han, the prince is also in the VIP room. You can choose which one to go to."
"Choose?" Han Chunming raised his eyebrows. Was this going to anger him?
Han Chunming is not to blame for this.
"Brothers, I think we should go back and ask Uncle Seven and Prince. Since our business dealings have nothing to do with each other, you should not mind sitting down and chatting together, right?" Han Chunming said with a smile.
That’s right, he doesn’t want to offend either family, so let’s sit down and talk.
Of course, Han Chunming didn't agree to anything. When it comes to business, who can guarantee success?
After hearing Han Chunming's words, Anthrax and Shitouzi looked at each other, seeming to be dissatisfied with the decision.
Han Chunming saw through it and continued, "Please don't make things difficult for me, both of you! If I go to the Crown Prince, Uncle Seven will definitely be unhappy. If I go to Uncle Seven, the Crown Prince will definitely think I'm ungrateful. In that case, let's sit down and talk. This is all legitimate business, nothing shameful, right?"
Tang Qingshan on the side wanted to give Han Chunming a thumbs up. Han Chunming had managed to smooth things over so well. It all depended on how the two parties decided.
"Okay, I'll go ask Uncle Qi." Shitouzi said simply.
"In that case, I also went to ask the prince's opinion." Anthrax did not hesitate, and the two of them left.
Han Chunming breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two supervisors leave.
Let them seek their opinions. If they agree, then sit down and talk about it together.
If they don't agree, neither Han Chunming nor his family will go back. At worst, he will just stop being friends with them.
We live in a society ruled by law now. Can these two groups still force him to come over?
"Aren't you afraid that the two families will fall out?" Tang Qingshan leaned close to Han Chunming and muttered.
"What are you afraid of? If they want to transform, they won't offend me. I'm quite powerful in mainland China. If something goes wrong in Hong Kong, they can't escape responsibility."
Shrugging his shoulders, Han Chunming answered indifferently.
Now the mainland officials are focusing on protecting him. If something really happens in Hong Kong, even if it is difficult for Hong Kong to take action, they will never let it go.
Moreover, Han Chunming is confident in his own abilities, so how could he allow himself to get into trouble?
"Okay, don't think about them, let's go shopping." Han Chunming said.
The party was still half over, and Han Chunming was still wondering if he could find something good.
As for the jade Buddha, Han Chunming had no intention of accepting it. It was a hot potato, and he was not stupid enough to take it.
Tang Qingshan didn't say much. He was a military man, and if Hong Kong really dared to touch him, they would have to think twice.
It is precisely because the two of them are fearless that they can still hang out in peace in front of everyone.
The standards of this antique bureau are indeed high. Even the scattered stalls can sell jade Buddhas worth millions. If you look carefully, you might actually find some good things.
But before the two of them could find anything good, Anthrax and Stone found them at the same time.
"Prince Brother agreed to talk together and has already gone to Uncle Seven's VIP room."
When Anthrax came over, that's what he said.
"Mr. Han, please come in." Shitouzi added the second half of the sentence. At this time, the two of them were surprisingly in sync.
Han Chunming and Tang Qingshan looked at each other, knowing that they couldn't escape, so they didn't say much and just left with Kan Shitouzi and Tan'nu.
"Wait!" Tannu stopped Tang Qingshan, "This guy doesn't need to follow me, right?"
"He is my friend, and my business is all legitimate. There is nothing I can't listen to, right?" Han Chunming said lightly, directly blocking Anthrax's words.
After all, Tang Qingshan came here with Han Chunming. How could he be left waiting outside alone?
Moreover, Han Chunming had already been somewhat annoyed with this Anthrax. It was fine if they wanted to test him, but the Million Jade Buddhas wanted to force him to cooperate with them. What a joke!
After all, they are not of the same kind, and Han Chunming cannot stand the way he speaks and acts.
"Mr. Han, what you mean is that if this friend doesn't follow us, he won't see the prince?" Anthrax's face darkened again, with a strong threatening tone.
"Yes." Han Chunming answered without hesitation or even trying to hide it. He was not afraid of the threat of anthrax at all.
Tang Qingshan, who was standing by, felt inexplicably moved. It turned out that he had no connection with his friend Han Chunming.
"Our Seventh Uncle welcomes Mr. Han's friends, please come in." Shitouzi seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for Anthrax, and directly invited Han Chunming.
Anthrax was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he dared not say anything and could only follow him.
Having messed up the group's big business, the prince will not let Anthrax go, so Anthrax dare not...
The entire venue is a mezzanine, and the mezzanine is full of VIP rooms. Sitting in a VIP room, you can have a panoramic view of the disbanding party downstairs and the auction that is about to begin.
If you are not a person of real status, you are not qualified to enter the VIP room.
Han Chunming is very low-key. He just wanted to come and see this antique bureau and see what the relationship is between Jiade Auction and Li Jiacheng. He really didn't want to make a big deal about it.
Now, thanks to Shiqi Kai and the Triads, it is difficult for Han Chunming to keep a low profile.
As soon as he entered the VIP room, Han Chunming heard the sounds of people chatting and laughing in the room, but he could feel that everyone was on guard and cautious.
It seems that the issues between the groups still make it difficult for them to truly coexist peacefully.
"Seventh Uncle." "Crown Prince."
Han Chunming saw a middle-aged man in his fifties, dressed in casual branded clothes, with slightly gray hair that was meticulously groomed. There was a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were very sharp. He didn't look like an ordinary person at all.
Han Chunming guessed that this person was his seventh uncle.
On the other side was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was wearing a brand-name suit and looked like a high-end person, but a hideous scar on his right cheek revealed his corporate identity.
No need to guess, this is the prince.
As the boss of the two major groups, Han Chunming suddenly felt that he was really very prestigious.
"Hello, Uncle Seven, hello, Prince." Han Chunming greeted them with a smile. "This is..." "Mr. Han, right? I didn't expect you to be so young! Come and sit down!"
According to the rules of the Xiangjiang Group, seniority is very strictly enforced.
So, really speaking, Uncle Seventh is the prince's predecessor.
However, Han Chunming and Tang Qingshan had just come in and Uncle Seventh had just opened his mouth when the prince interrupted him, making it clear that he did not take Uncle Seventh seriously.
In fact, although Han Chunming often does things unconventionally, he is also a person who follows the rules.
Looking at Anthrax's behavior, you can understand the character of the prince, the eldest brother.
Looking at the hand extended by the prince, Han Chunming just smiled at him and said, "Hello, prince."
Then, Han Chunming went to greet his seventh uncle: "Hello, seventh uncle."
The smile on Uncle Qi's face was filled with a hint of pride. He glanced at the prince and said, "Mr. Han, right? You are so young and promising! Come and sit down!"
"Thank you, Uncle Qi. I have heard of your name for a long time." Han Chunming sat down with his Uncle Qi and asked Tang Qingshan to sit next to him.
The prince's appearance now was a little awkward. He looked a little unwell, and the corners of his mouth kept twitching.
Of course he understood that Han Chunming didn't take him seriously at all. He originally wanted to use Han Chunming to suppress his seventh uncle, but he didn't expect that Han Chunming was so unreasonable.
This made the prince feel a little embarrassed, and he felt resentment towards Han Chunming.
But when he turned around, the prince smiled again. "Mr. Han, you came all the way to Hong Kong, but what kind of business are you looking for? I have many businesses under my Seventeen Kai, and you can choose any of them."
Having said that, the prince did not wait for his seventh uncle to let him pass and sat down directly, sitting opposite Han Chunming, with a rather arrogant smile on his face, looking very arrogant.
Faced with the prince's behavior, Han Chunming felt extremely disgusted.
However, we have to be patient, after all, we are facing a large group.
"Why are you so anxious, Prince?" Han Chunming curled his lips and turned to look at his seventh uncle. "Seventh Uncle, I heard that you have always been very interested in the mainland market. I wonder which industry you are optimistic about?"
He had never expected that Han Chunming was so sensible and would actually take the initiative to approach him. For this, the seventh uncle was very happy and glanced at the prince with pride.
The prince was already feeling a little embarrassed. He could see that Han Chunming didn't take him seriously at all.
After all, Shiqi Kai has a deep foundation in Hong Kong, but Han Chunming didn't take him seriously at all, which made the prince very unhappy.
But he couldn't leave.
Shiqi Kai's transformation is imminent, and he must be patient for the future of his group.
However, he will keep this account in mind and will never let Han Chunming go if he gets the chance.
"I heard that Mr. Han has a wide range of interests. I wonder which direction Mr. Han wants to develop in?" Uncle Qi also gave Han Chunming face, meaning that he wanted to choose which industry he wanted to work in.
Han Chunming thought for a moment and said, "Although I've dabbled in many industries, I haven't ventured into literature or the entertainment industry yet. I wonder if Uncle Qi has any good advice for me?"
"These two aspects..." Uncle Qi suddenly became interested.
When it comes to other industries, Uncle Seven is not so sure, but in recent years, 80% of Hong Kong's film and television industry have cooperated with the group, so Uncle Seven still has a lot of say in this regard.
"Then Mr. Han has made the right choice. Shiqi Kai has three entertainment companies under its umbrella and has cultivated countless stars. If we cooperate, there will be many aspects of development." The prince interrupted once.
