After seven o'clock in the evening, the bustling nightlife in Hong Kong and Macau begins. Especially the major casinos in Macau are crowded with people.
Liu Dong was surprised by the number of gamblers here, but after hearing their accents, he realized that most of them were from the same country.
Liu Dong, who knew very well that his compatriots had a gambling bent, was not too surprised by this. There is probably no other nation in the world that has as many tricks as the Chinese.
Standing outside, I briefly looked at the 239-meter-high, forty-four-story luxury building that combines a hotel and a casino in front of me, and then strode in.
Although Liu Dong occupies the absolute controlling interest in Emperor Entertainment, this is the first time Liu Dong has come here in person since it was built.
However, it can be seen that Ho Chaoqiong, the manager, is still very responsible. No matter in terms of design or on-site layout, Nuoda's Emperor Entertainment is much more luxurious than the original Lisboa Casino. Moreover, although in the entire casino,
The crowds are dense, but there is no feeling of chaos at all.
In addition, from the dense distribution of gamblers in front of almost every gaming table, it can also be seen that Emperor Entertainment is still very popular in the entire Macau gambling industry.
Now that we have arrived at the casino, there is naturally no shortage of public relations people with extraordinary eyesight. Liu Dong had just walked in for four or five minutes when a young girl wearing black business attire, with a capable temperament and a hint of charm, and a pretty appearance had already walked over.
.
After walking closer and seeing Liu Dong's outfit clearly, the girl's eyes immediately brightened a bit, "Sir, can you play a few games?"
"Of course, now that I'm here, I haven't thought about doing anything else!" As he said that, Liu Dong tossed the 100,000 chips he had just exchanged in his hand.
"Sir, what are you going to play? Blackjack? Baccarat? Stud? Or something else?" the female publicist said immediately.
"Baccarat, it seems to be the most popular here!"
Baccarat is one of the most popular gambling games in casinos around the world. Among casinos in Macau, the number of baccarat tables is the largest among casinos in the world. The Emperor Casino is no exception.
"Okay, please come with me!"
Soon, the slim female publicist led Liu Dong to a popular baccarat table.
Because he came here purely to relax and hang out, Liu Dong did not use the relic Yuanguang, and relied entirely on his own luck and judgment to determine the outcome.
As a result, Liu Dong originally thought he would lose a lot in the poker game. Not only did he not lose, but after playing four or five games, the chips in his hand had more than doubled. This result surprised him.
However, just when Liu Dong wanted to take advantage of his good luck to win a few more games, a middle-aged man in a suit quietly walked behind him.
"Hello, Mr. Liu!"
"Do you know me?" Liu Dong said after turning around and briefly sizing up the other person.
"Yes! Mr. He often mentions you in front of us!" the middle-aged man said respectfully.
"Oh, I'm telling you!" After nodding his head clearly, "Is Mr. He here today?"
"Here, Mr. He originally wanted to come and pick you up in person, but something happened and he couldn't leave for a while, so he asked me to come over!"
"Did something happen?"
"Yes!" nodded, and after a slight hesitation, the middle-aged man continued, "In the past two days, a master of stud has come to the casino. Although it was only a short time, he has now won nearly 300 million from us.
Hong Kong dollar. None of our people are opponents. I had no choice but to take action personally!"
"Are they still gambling now?" Liu Dong raised his eyebrows.
"Yes!"
"How's the situation?"
"Not very good!" the middle-aged man said after a slight hesitation.
"It seems that the other party really has bad intentions!" Liu Dong said with concentration.
Ho Chao-king's gambling skills are inherited from the gambling king Stanley Ho, and her family background is beyond the comparison of ordinary people. There are really not many people who can defeat her, except those who are famous in the world's gambling king rankings.
"Come on, take me over and take a look!" Liu Dong stood up and said.
"Okay, please!"
The middle-aged man looked overjoyed. As someone who had witnessed the thrilling gambling game when Liu Dong won the gambling card, he admired the gambling skills of the young man in front of him. Otherwise, he would not have noticed Liu Dong when he was patrolling.
So I took the initiative to find him.
"Oh, I almost forgot!...This is a reward for you!"
After finding two hundred thousand chips from the chips he won and handing them over to the female publicist who accompanied him, Liu Dong strode away amidst the other party's awe-inspiring eyes and words of thanks.
Although the third floor is not far from the lobby on the first floor, it will take a few minutes to get there. In these few minutes, Liu Dong has already understood the position and position of the middle-aged man next to him in Emperor Entertainment.
Name. At the same time, I also learned about the causes and consequences of today’s gambling.
"Mr. Liu, here we are, right here!"
After nodding, Liu Dong strode in after watching the middle-aged man push open the door to luxury box No. 6.
The atmosphere in the box was very quiet, and most of people's attention was on the gambling table in the center. Of course, not everyone noticed the movement when Liu Dong came in.
"Mr. Liu, I didn't expect to see you here today!"
Looking at the eager middle-aged man in front of him with a hint of surprise in his expression, Liu Dong smiled and said, "I didn't expect to meet Mr. Kadoorie here either!"
To be honest, there is no deep friendship between Liu Dong and the fourth-generation heir of the Kadoorie family in front of him. The two sides only met once when Liu Dong competed for gambling cards two and a half years ago.
Just saying hello.
However, Liu Dong still understood the principle of not hitting the smiling person. Therefore, when the other person came to him and greeted him cordially, Liu Dong still behaved appropriately.
"By the way, I almost forgot to congratulate Mr. Liu for being crowned the richest man in the world! This is an enviable title!" Rabin Kadoorie said with a hint of respect and envy in his tone.
"Thank you! ... However, if I have a choice, I would rather not be the world's richest man. It's not easy to live in hiding!"
"Haha, Mr. Liu is so humble! The word "hiding in Tibet" is really inappropriate when applied to you!"
"Maybe!"……
While Liu Dong and Liu Dong were chatting, more and more people noticed them. As the direct heir of the Kadoorie family, Rabin Kadoorie was the most familiar person among the upper classes in Hong Kong and Macao.
One of the faces. He is even more famous locally than Liu Dong, the new richest man in the world.
The person who could talk to Rabin Kadoorie on an equal footing was certainly not an ordinary person.
After briefly looking at the two of them, those who knew Liu Dong understood his identity. Soon, the words 'the richest man in the world' caused bursts of exclamations in the originally quiet casino, and
All kinds of curious, inquiring, envious, and even jealous looks.
"Why is he here?"
Just when everyone learned about Liu Dong's identity and were considering what kind of excuse they could use to get to know him, a few meters away, a young man in a brown suit unexpectedly frowned.
"Mr. Fu, is there something wrong?"
Next to him, a half-century-old man with gray hair but a British aristocratic temperament asked in a friendly tone on the surface, but if you listen closely, you can feel a stylized tone.
"I'm afraid our plan tonight will end early!" the young man said with a frown.
"because of him?"
After finishing his words, the old man frowned and looked at the seemingly ordinary young man not far away.
"That's right!"
After letting out a breath, Fu Rong's mind flashed back to the scene that happened at the Lisboa Casino more than two years ago. The other party's magical gambling skills still impressed him to this day.
Immersed in his own thoughts for a while, but after seeing the disapproval on the face of the old man next to him from the corner of his eye, Fu Rong frowned again and couldn't help but said: "Mr. Chen, even though he is young, he is very good at gambling.
His achievements are definitely one of the strongest in the world. Larry Walton, who was once known as the world's number one gambling king, was defeated by the opponent!"
"Larry Walton?" After being stunned for a moment, the old man surnamed Chen suddenly said, "Is he the Liu Dong who won the Macau Gambling King Competition last year and took away the first gambling card from Sands?"
"That's right, now he is still the world's richest man just selected by Forbes. And he even appeared on the cover of Time Magazine in March!" Fu Rong said with deep emotion in his words.
He paid close attention to Liu Dong, who once defeated him at the gambling table.
Originally, he believed that Liu Dong was indeed more successful than himself in career, but after Time Magazine and Forbes exposed Liu Dong's wealth and net worth, Fu Rong finally understood. This average-looking peer of his age has already achieved great success in business.
It was hard for him to keep up with him.
This time, if it weren't for some demands from his family and the fact that he once owed the other party a favor, he would never have accompanied him to the Emperor Entertainment to cause trouble.
"Is what you just said true?" As a Chinese living in the United States, the old man surnamed Chen is very aware of the weight of "Times" and "Forbes" in the political and business circles of the United States and even the world. It is precisely because of this,
Only after listening to Fu Rong's words did he look so shocked.
He couldn't believe that a seemingly ordinary Chinese man at such a young age would be associated with the two prestigious titles of "the richest man in the world" and "the cover of Time Magazine".
"This kind of thing can't be just made up!" Fu Rong said calmly.
