The old man's voice was not loud, but at this moment the tea restaurant was silent, because of the appearance of this old man, they all wanted to see what choice the originally tough George would make, in their opinion, the old man in front of him had spoken, then this matter could soon disappear into silence, like a wave, before it could rise to become calm.

"I'm sorry, old man, I can't promise you. ”

George took in everyone's eyes, knowing that this old man had a huge influence in Xiangjiang and was a person like Optimus Prime, not to mention that it was almost the same, but he had his own insistence, and he couldn't return immediately because of a little wind and waves outside the port before the ship left the port.

That's not his character, even if the old man in front of him has an unparalleled status in Xiangjiang, and he has nothing to do with him, he can't just rely on these few words without knowing who he is.

Life in the world, if you don't advance, you will retreat, the same is true for shopping malls, once you take a step back, then you can't find the future, many times, things have two sides, once you back down because the other party is strong, George can't see the hope of success, you can only live a muddy life, that's all.

As soon as these words came out, George could clearly see the stunned looks on the faces of the people around him, I am afraid they didn't expect George to give this old man such a faceless.

"It's good for young people to be vibrant, but you have to think clearly, once you step out, some roads are not so easy to turn back, and you have to bear any consequences, have you ever thought about the consequences that you can bear?"

As soon as the old man's words came out, George smiled with a serious face, what he was not afraid of was threats, if the Watt family did not admit him before, maybe he would consider the pros and cons of gain and loss, now, unless he defeated him in a dignified manner, otherwise he wanted him to retreat under the threat of a few words from the other party, once it was passed back to the Watt family, then he would be immediately removed from the Watt family, and everything he had done before would be turned into ashes and go down with the water.

The Watt family never needs waste, he can go in a roundabout way to achieve the goal, he can be tough to achieve the goal, in their eyes, as long as he can achieve the goal he wants, he can get into trouble, and naturally there will be a family to bear it for him, and the family is his strong backer, but he can't disarm and surrender under the threat of others.

"Sir, you said that I am a young man, so I should have my own vitality, momentum and drive.

In the face of difficulties, we must face the difficulties and split the waves that stand in front of you, there may be another wave ahead, it's okay, just continue to split, there will always be a moment to see the sun.

I'm still young, and some of the consequences may not be bearable, but I have family, and when I can't hold on, they will come out and clean up the mess, and if they are alarmed, I can't imagine what will happen. ”

George's sonorous words clearly reached the ears of everyone who was doing it, including Guo Jingwen, the vice chairman of the board of directors of the Hong Kong Shanghai Hotel, who was in charge of the Peninsula Hotel in the absence of Michael Kadoorie and who had just arrived immediately after hearing about the incident.

George's words were like dropping a bombshell in the calm lake, blowing up a huge mushroom cloud in the calm lake, and some of the people present who had been paying attention to George had already stood up in their seats in shock, looking at George in horror.

They didn't understand whether George was really ignorant or had a more powerful backer who could make him act recklessly, but one thing was certain, once the old man sitting opposite him got angry, it was a real landslide and the ground would tremble, and some people came back from shock and began to look at George gloatingly, hoping that the old man opposite him could teach him a hard lesson, let him know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is.

"Hehehe,,,,,, I haven't heard such words for many years, and I haven't seen such a backbone young man for many years.

I remember the last time I heard it was in 69, when the trusted governor of Hong Kong issued a big strangulation order against me, and at that time I used all my strength to resist, and in the end I won, you have the demeanor of my year.

Yes,,,,,, very good,,,,,,, none of Qiao Lao's descendants are bad, and he has not lost his face. ”

But the next moment, something happened that surprised them, the old man surnamed Huo, who was sitting opposite George, did not get angry in the face of George's threat, but laughed, with an appreciative look on his face.

This made the people in the distance a little confused, but the people not far away in front of them were a little shocked, except for a few outsiders in this tea restaurant, no one in Xiangjiang locals did not know what the old gentleman did back then, and who he dealt with.

At this moment, the meaning of his words turned out to be that he was an old acquaintance and even an old friend with the elders of the young man named George.

The plot reversal, this is what many people are willing to see, but there are also many people who don't want to see such a reversal, especially Guo Jingwen, the chairman of the Peninsula Hotel, who rushed over, at this time he only felt that the world was spinning, and he had a feeling of fainting.

Before he came, he had received a report from the company's investment department, and there was a powerful force in the stock market that was sweeping the goods at all costs, as long as someone was listed, they would be eaten, no matter how much, it would be at all costs to see that posture.

Originally, he didn't care when he received a report from his subordinates that someone was shouting in the hotel to buy the hotel, but now the owner of the hotel, the Kadoorie family, although it has a lot of investment outside, has gradually shifted its focus back to the hotel.

As the chairman of the hotel at The Peninsula headquarters, he understands that the power of this Jewish family is not just on the outside.

He appeared in the tea restaurant just because Guo Lao ran into this incident, shouted the initiator who wanted to leave, and was persuading the other party to give up, Guo Lao is the person he needs to look up to, such a person appears here, and his subordinates will pass on to the upper echelons, even Michael Kadoorie needs to go to say hello, let alone him.

Who knew that after arriving at the place, he learned that the detailed situation was actually two completely different results from what he thought, the young man who was sitting there and talking with Huo Lao Guo Lao in just a few phone calls united Liu Daxiong and Lin Yue, who had been eyeing the Peninsula Hotel more than ten years ago, and it was only because the Kadoorie family gave up huge interests to fight back at a critical moment, and persuaded many small shareholders to reach an agreement with them to repel them.

After more than ten years of development, the former "stock market sniper" has become more powerful, and has become one of the few top businessmen in Xiangjiang.

Fortunately, happy things then came to his ears, Huo Lao appeared in the tea restaurant of the Peninsula Hotel for some reason, and happened to hear about it, I don't know why he actually spoke, he originally thought that everything was fine, but now he knew that it was not what he imagined at all, and the two sides who had just been tense turned out to be world friends, which made her immediately have a feeling that the sky had fallen.

"Do you know my grandfather?"

From the appearance of the person in charge of the Leica camera to the present, the dazzling changes have made Qiao Tao a little dumbfounded and even stunned, obviously how did eating and taking pictures become like this, but he somewhat understood the conversation between George and Guo Lao and even Huo Lao, the cousin he had just met had fallen in love with this hotel and wanted to include it in his pocket, and he was just a cause of this matter.

After understanding, after thinking for a while, he didn't find anything unfavorable to him, so he kept pretending to be deaf and dumb, watching his cousin and these two people who seemed to be big people arguing with each other, and when he heard Huo Lao mention his grandfather, he couldn't help but ask.

"When I smuggled into the north, the first person I met and received was Qiao Lao, until the mid-sixties, for some reason, someone else contacted me.

Calculate the time, since the last time we met in the capital, I haven't seen Brother Qiao for more than five years, the last time the juniors went, the old brother began to close the door, and there was no more news, and now the old brother's health is fine. ”

"Grandpa has always been in good health, and he can walk more than ten miles every day. ”

Hearing the old man in front of him ask about his grandfather's body, Qiao Tao and George stood up, and Qiao Tao replied respectfully.

No matter how stupid George is, he knows who the old man in front of him is, there was only one person in the entire Xiangjiang who made a deal with the north at that time, and there was only one person who dared to blatantly tell his family history, and his identity was very certain.

It's just that he doesn't understand why the old man is here, and this old Guo, the Huo family has their own hotel and doesn't go, what is it to come here to mix.

For this old man, George is respectful, but respect is respect, but when it comes to business, it is another matter, which is to be discussed separately.

"Sit down, Brother Qiao's tutor is still so rigorous, and there is no shortage of due etiquette, so people can't find any fault, because he has too many etiquette, I laughed at him back then, but I didn't expect to be old, and I fell into the cliché"

Looking at the etiquette of George and Qiao Tao, Huo Lao smiled and said to Guo Laodao, who had been sitting on the side without speaking.

"Boy, just because of your disrespect to me just now, I let people knock you, and your mother will not have any opinion even if she knows. ”

Without waiting for Guo Lao to speak, Huo Lao looked at George, his eyes glared, although he was still majestic, but the smile on his face made the tense atmosphere melt.

But what he said surprised George, and he didn't believe that his mother would blame him for it.

In his memory, his mother only beat him once since he was a child, and that was because when George was in middle school, he was angry, and after the last girl was pregnant, she played irresponsibly and disappeared, and she didn't know how to let her mother know, and she slapped him hard when she saw him.

This is the only time George was beaten by his mother since he was a child, and finally Watt Smith's cheap father's words woke him up, because of different cultures, treat things differently, and it is normal in the United States to do things, but in Chinese culture is a great thing, it can be said that his beating is caused by different cultures.
