There were only two people in the small and empty barber shop, one was the barber and the other was a bald old man lying on a chair shaving.
Outside the barber shop, two gangsters were guarding the door. Their waists were bulging, and they were hiding trolls at first glance.
There is a small radio placed on the counter of the barber shop, which is playing "Abandoning Chu and Returning to Han", one of the eight major Cantonese songs: "I abandoned Chu and returned to Han, my heart felt like an arrow leaving my string, and my talent was in vain with nowhere to show it.
Trapped in a shoal, a tiger falls on a flat sun, but there is only a sliver of sky..."
The master barber was holding a razor and carefully shaving the green mustache of the lying bald old man.
"Now I am so ambitious that I want to ride the wind and waves and sing a song about the struggle between Chu and Han for hegemony -"
Listening to the intense part of the music, the bald old man who was lying down and shaving couldn't help but tap the handrail with his fingers. As he moved, the old master's razor could no longer be steady and tilted slightly, scratching his jaw.
"I'm sorry!" the master apologized hurriedly, his whole body trembling, but he knew exactly who the other person was.
Just when the master was worried, the bald old man picked up the white cloth covering his neck and wiped his chin, took a look, sat up and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter! I'm a regular customer, of course I know how good your skills are.
?I was scratched by you because I moved around just now——" As he spoke, he took out three hundred Australian dollars from his pocket and handed it over, "The cost this time is a lot!"
"No, no, no, I can't accept it!" The old master was frightened. "It's a great kindness for you not to let me pay for it, but I absolutely cannot accept the money for a haircut!"
The bald old man smiled: "I, Ye Han, am also a well-known figure in Macau. If I say one is one, just take it!" As he spoke, he pushed the money over.
The old master held a razor in one hand and money in the other. It was neither necessary nor necessary.
At this time, someone came in at the door, but it was Ye Han's subordinates.
The man walked straight to Ye Han, glanced at the old master, and then whispered a few words to Ye Han.
Ye Han smiled, picked up the cream on the cabinet with both hands, poured a little into his palms, then rubbed his hands together evenly, then wiped his cheeks again in front of the mirror, then patted his cheeks and said: "Shi Zhijian? Hong Kong
Tycoon? He is also interested in coming to Macau to become a gambling king? Interesting!"
"Boss, now that the shares of the Huo family have been given to him, then Shi Zhijian is the third boss of the Macau Tourism and Entertainment Company. Do you think it is-"
"Of course I have to meet him!" Ye Han said calmly, "You have to meet him whether he is a human or a ghost. Besides, I, Ye Han, have always said that when friends come, they have good wine, and when enemies come, they have shotguns!"
"I heard that Shi Zhijian's Shinhwa Jewelry will open in Macau tomorrow. Boss, you can take advantage of this opportunity-"
Ye Han nodded, "Then prepare a big gift for me! Be careful, maybe we can even make friends!"
"receive!"
…
Macau Lisbon Stadium.
There were search lights all around, illuminating the entire stadium as if it were daytime.
As one of the Macau casino tycoons, Stanley Ho is currently running on the court wearing a red jersey, sweating profusely and playing a friendly match with his opponents.
Macau is a very small place, so courses like this are rare.
In fact, this place was a big garbage dump a long time ago. Later, it was filled up and turned into a dog fighting ring. However, with the rise of other gambling industries in Macau, the business of this slightly cruel dog fighting ring became worse and worse, and eventually
Close down.
Later, when the Japs invaded and Hong Kong fell, many people fled from Hong Kong and came to Macau. The Macau official used the waste and classified it as a refugee camp, and sent black ghosts to guard it. Thousands of people were packed into the huge stadium. During the peak period,
Reaching 20,000 to 30,000.
At that time, people could sell everything for a meal. Men sold their children and daughters, and women sold themselves. Those Portuguese ghosts could sleep with a Chinese woman with just a piece of bread, even a moldy one!
It can be said that during that period, the Chinese were worse than dogs!
"Bang" all over my body!
He Daheng, wearing a red jersey, dribbled the ball into the goal, and cheers suddenly rang out from around him.
Several partners rushed over and hugged He Daheng cordially to celebrate their team's victory.
Although He Daheng is fifty-five years old this year, he is still going strong and strong. Being able to dribble the ball into the goal demonstrates his extraordinary energy and masculine style.
After celebrating on the court, He Daheng came down from the court, took the towel handed by his subordinates, wiped his sweat, and while fanning the jersey with his hand, he gasped: "No, I can't do it if I don't accept it! I have never played a game like this before.
I even played seven or eight games without taking a breath, but now I can’t bear it after just one game!”
"Boss, you are too modest to say this!" The young man who spoke was in his twenties, handsome, and about the same height as Daheng He. "If anyone else was your age, they would have been holding on to a cane to even walk.
You can't walk, but you can still be so fierce on the court, you are really sharp!"
"Ah Hui, you are flattering me again! Haha, but I am willing to listen!" He Daheng smiled, his eyes full of admiration for the young man.
In fact, the young man in front of him is not an ordinary person. In his previous life, he was the founder of Macau's "Die Ma Zai" and the top horse of gambling king Ho Tycoon - he doubled the casino's performance after returning from the United States.
More than ten times, he has been in the major casinos in Macau for forty years. He is the famous Macau "smart star" Zhou Jinhui.
Zhou Jinhui was born in Hong Kong in 1950, and his ancestral home is Shunde City, Guangdong. His mother, Lin Feng'e, was a wealthy lady in Macau. After getting married, she followed her husband to Hong Kong to develop real estate, and the business was very big.
In other words, Zhou Jinhui has surpassed many ordinary people since he was born. The end point that others may want to strive for in their lives is just the starting line for him. For Zhou Jinhui to stand out in the future, I have to talk about Zhou Jinhui’s mother’s nickname.
Lin Feng'e of "Sister E".
Although Zhou Jinhui's family is rich, his father died in his early years. His mother Lin Feng'e not only took care of their six brothers and sisters, but was also entrusted by relatives to take care of three other children. It was not easy for a widow to raise nine children by herself, so Zhou Jinhui
Jin Hui once jokingly called his mother the "leader of the Beggar Clan".
Although there are nine children playing and playing in the house all year round, "Sister E" not only keeps the house in order, but also takes her husband's business to a higher level.
So much so that in the 1950s, she already owned a Mercedes-Benz and was the first Mercedes-Benz owner in Hong Kong. It is really admirable for a widow to do this.
In the late 1960s, due to changes in Hong Kong Island, Zhou Jinhui's family went to Macau to develop, and then went to the United States to study. After returning to Macau, he made his debut in Macau casinos with He Tycoon at the age of 20, and started to work with Ho Tycoon.
Jin Hui learned the rare "skill of knowing people", which laid the foundation for him to become the ancestor of "Die Ma Zai" in the future.
For example, some people wear white vests, shorts, and slippers, and are rustic, but they own dozens of houses to collect rent, and have luxury sports cars to drive; there are also people who dress well in front of others and dress like a rich man.
, I may even have to settle the account behind my back to buy instant noodles.
With such a confusing appearance, Zhou Jinhui can directly see the other party's true face at a glance with his superhuman sixth sense.
He Daheng valued Zhou Jinhui very much, so he broke the rules and let him manage a gambling hall in Macau Casino alone. Zhou Jinhui did not disappoint He Daheng. Under his management, the casino's monthly income increased from 20 million to 20 million.
The performance of the company increased by 20 times in a straight line, turning into a monthly income of 400 million.
How did he do it? It turns out that at first, most of the customers in Macau casinos came from local and surrounding areas, but Zhou Jinhui broke this limitation.
He flew to various parts of Southeast Asia and South America, making full use of his personal connections to attract customers to Macau. These people from other places came to Macau for sightseeing, and they will definitely make a contribution to Macau's main industries.
Later, Zhou Jinhui also became a cruise company, specializing in transporting Southeast Asian customers for "sightseeing tours", which also greatly promoted the casino's business.
Seeing the casino's performance soaring also means that Zhou Jinhui's idea is right, and He Daheng's use of this casino as a pilot project is successful.
This is also the origin of the mention at the beginning that Zhou Jinhui is the founder of "Macau Die Ma Tsai".
"Ah Hui, I'm very optimistic about you. Now you can help me manage a gambling hall. If I can get the gambling license again this time and lead the company with equity, I will allocate more gambling halls to you.
You!" He Daheng patted Zhou Jinhui on the shoulder and said, "So from now on you have to work harder and don't let me live up to my expectations of you!"
Zhou Jinhui was very happy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He just nodded to He Daheng with determination and said: "Jin Hui will definitely not let the boss down!"
While he was talking, someone ran in in a panic.
He Daheng took a closer look and saw that it was another of his subordinates.
"Something happened, boss!" The man was a fat white man, wiping his sweat with a handkerchief as he ran.
"What's going on, you're so flustered?"
"It's like this -" Fatty Bai hurriedly told He Daheng the news he had learned.
"What? The Huo family sold 20% of their equity to Shi Zhijian?" He Daheng frowned.
Zhou Jinhui was also slightly stunned: "Isn't Shi Zhijian... the big boss of Shinhwa Group?"
He Daheng nodded: "Yes, that's him! I once heard that he is one of the rare people!"
"Among men?" Zhou Jinhui curled his lips, somewhat dissatisfied.
He Daheng pinched his chin and frowned: "My old friend is really cruel this time. He didn't even say hello and directly treated me!"
Of course Zhou Jinhui and Fatty Bai understood what He Daheng meant.
Mr. Huo is not interested in Macau's gaming industry, and he uses most of the money he earns for charity. For this reason, Mr. Huo and He Daheng often have conflicts.
When I came back, Mr. Huo told Mr. He several times that he no longer wanted to run the casino and wanted to withdraw his shares. Mr. He had already made plans after hearing this. He hoped that Mr. Huo would take the 100% of his money for the sake of being friends.
Twenty shares were sold to myself.
But now, Boss Huo gave him a "big surprise". He sold the shares to Shi Zhijian, who had nothing to do with the casino business, without even saying hello. How could this make Tycoon He, an old friend, feel embarrassed?!
"Boss, now that things have happened, we can't sit still and wait for death!" Zhou Jinhui suggested, "Although Shi Zhijian is known as a Hong Kong tycoon and a talented man in Hong Kong, he knows nothing about running a casino. I think he bought the Huo family by chance.
Equity - now that he has equity in his hands, we should take the initiative and acquire it back from him!"
He Daheng glanced at Zhou Jinhui: "The question is is he willing?"
Zhou Jinhui smiled slightly: "No one in this world is not greedy for money. As long as you give him enough benefits, I think he should know how to do it!"
He Daheng nodded: "I hope so!" Then he put his hands behind his back and said with an unruly expression: "I heard that his jewelry company will open tomorrow. Ah Hui, help me back up the gift for him! Since he and Young Master Huo are so close
Brother, and I am Mr. Huo’s uncle, so after all, I am his uncle Shi Zhijian! It’s natural for an uncle to treat his nephew! "
