Shi Zhijian did not answer Li Andao directly, but picked up the coffee and took a slow sip. Then he raised his eyes and looked at the two of them: "Simple, if you want to control the healthy development of Macau's gaming industry, you must eliminate monopoly. The best way is
Split the gaming license into two!”
"Uh, what?" Andao Li and Costa were shocked when they heard this. They looked at Shi Zhijian in disbelief with their eyes wide open.
Money never sleeps!
It is said that since the legalization of gambling in Macau in 1847, money games on the gambling table have continued for hundreds of years on this land with an area of only 31 square kilometers.
Gambling business license---commonly known as "gambling license", has always been a prize in the eyes of major financial groups and families.
In the previous life, Macau Entertainment, controlled by the "Macau Gambling Kings" Ho family, had been a monopoly for 40 years since they obtained the Macau gaming franchise in 1962.
It was not until 2001 that the Macau government formulated the "Legal System for Lucky Gambling Operations in Casinos", opened up bidding for gaming licenses, and divided the gaming licenses into three, breaking the monopoly of the Ho family.
Now, the Macau Tourism and Entertainment Development Corporation, headed by Ye Han and Ho Tycoon, has been monopolizing the licenses and is unwilling to take a share of the pie.
Shi Zhijian's meaning is very simple. Seeing that the ten-year gambling license is about to expire, if Li Andao and others can divide this license into two, then they can avoid a dominant player and allow Macau's gaming industry to win in the competition.
More healthy development.
This principle is very simple and can be understood as soon as you hear it.
Both Li Andao and Costa also understood that the reason why they were surprised was not because Shi Zhijian came up with such a simple move, but because this move was a dead move and had no executability at all.
To put it bluntly, Li Andao, the Australian governor, has no power to deal with this matter at all. He still relies on Australian entertainment companies to pay taxes, and relies on tycoon Ye Han and others to solve the salary and welfare issues of various government departments for him. In a word, he does not dare to offend Australia.
Entertainment company people!
"Ahem, Mr. Shi, the suggestion you made is really..." Li Andao didn't know how to describe it.
Next to him, Costa didn't care about this and said bluntly: "To be honest, if we do what you said and split the gambling cards into two, then we will most likely offend the people from the Australian Entertainment Company, and they are us
The largest tax-paying organization, we rely on them to provide the salaries and benefits of each department every year. You should understand the rest even if I don’t tell you..."
Shi Zhijian put down the coffee he was holding, smiled slightly and said: "Of course I understand what you are saying, because of expenditure reasons, you dare not break up with the Macao Entertainment Company - but what if I come forward?
"Uh, what do you mean?"
Shi Zhijian smiled: "If I promise to cover all the expenses of your government departments so that you have no worries, do you still dare to do it?"
Shi Zhijian directly asked Li Andao and the two of them.
Li Andao and Costa looked at each other, and finally Li Andao turned his attention to Shi Zhijian: "You want to bid for gambling cards?"
Shi Zhijian nodded.
Li Andao: "But you just sold 20% of the equity of Macao Entertainment Company, and now you--"
Shi Zhijian smiled dullly: "I said, I suddenly became interested in the gaming industry, is that good?"
Li Andao and Costa were stunned.
Suddenly Li An said: "Thirty million! You can use 30 million as a deposit first. If you are willing, we will make a deal!"
Shi Zhijian snapped his fingers: "There's a problem!" and then smiled: "Actually, I prepared 60 million for you. I didn't expect you to be such a nice person. Only 30 million -"
Li Andao rolled his eyes when he heard this, "Nima, it's going to be less!"
Costa said aside: "It's not true, we still have to sign an agreement!"
"Of course, I most admire the contractual spirit of you Westerners!" Shi Zhijian stood up and stretched out his hand towards Li Andao: "Happy cooperation!"
…
"Master Ye, He Sheng is not feeling well and invites you to meet in his study." Zhou Jinhui, He Daheng's confidant, said to Ye Han and others enthusiastically.
This time Ye Han came to He Daheng's mansion with his subordinate Huang Debiao and the famous "Lightning Hand" Hong Yaozong. They first waited for a cup of tea in the living room, and then saw Zhou Jinhui arriving late and conveying his message.
He Daheng asked them to meet in the study.
"Would you like to go to the study? Why not?" Ye Han lifted up his robe and stood up, "I came here tonight mainly to visit the patients. Since He Daheng is not feeling well, of course we can't let him run around. I'll come here in person.
It’s better to go once!”
"Master Ye is so thoughtful, we can't be more grateful!" Zhou Jinhui said, cupping his fists towards Ye Han.
Ye Han laughed "haha": "Don't talk about the situation! Take me there quickly, I don't want the patient to wait too long!"
"This way please!"
"Okay!" Ye Han walked upstairs with Huang Debiao and Hong Yaozong.
Zhou Jinhui glanced at Huang Debiao and Hong Yaozong: "I'm sorry, Master Ye, they two——"
"They are all my caring subordinates, and they have always allowed me to come and go freely——Why, do you still have any taboos here?"
"Oh, of course not." Zhou Jinhui smiled, "It's just that this is the He Mansion. If the two of them can stay..."
Before Zhou Jinhui could finish speaking, Ye Han laughed and said, "Can't you trust me?"
"How could it be?"
"In that case, let's go!"
"Ahem, okay!" Zhou Jinhui glanced at Huang Debiao again, especially Hong Yaozong, before leading them towards the study upstairs.
…
Soon the four of them arrived at the study on the second floor, only to see a person standing outside the study, a woman who was dressed up.
The woman was in her forties, with a pretty face and a sinister look on her face. At this moment, her eyes were like a hawk looking at Ye Han and others.
Before Ye Han and Huang Debiao felt anything, Hong Yaozong, the master of "Hongfo Boxing" who was following behind them, immediately raised his eyebrows and raised his eyebrows.
Huang Debiao, who was close to him, saw this and asked softly: "What's going on?"
"We've met a master!" Hong Yaozong's eyes were like a knife stabbing at the woman opposite, his eyes passing by the butterfly knife stuck in the opponent's waist, "And he's also a master at playing with knives!"
Huang Debiao remained calm, "Remember, don't do anything without Boss Ye's instructions! Even if you do, you have to do it beautifully!"
"receive!"
While they were talking, several people had already arrived at the door of the study, only to see that the study was very simple and elegant, with the four characters "Moxiang Study" hanging above it.
"Palace Master Qi, is He Sheng inside?" Zhou Jinhui asked loudly and deliberately.
The woman with the sword is Qi Weiwen, the leader of the 14th K hall in Macau, and a rare female elder in the world.
"He Sheng has been waiting inside for a long time!"
"Really? Then could you please tell me that Master Ye Hanye is here!"
"Okay!" Qi Weiwen knocked on the door, then pushed the door open and went in. He turned around and came out. He glanced at Zhou Jinhui first, and then said to Ye Han: "He Sheng, please come in!"
Ye Han smiled, turned around and said to Huang Debiao and Hong Yaozong: "You guys wait here, I'll be right back!"
"Yes, Master Ye!"
After Ye Han finished speaking, he lifted up his gown and walked towards the study.
Huang Debiao and Hong Yaozong followed. Before they could reach the door, Qi Weiwen had already closed the door and said to them: "You two, stop!"
Huang Debiao was okay, but Hong Yaozong's shoulders were rising and falling, shrugging, crackling, and making the sound of popping beans.
Hearing the sound, Qi Weiwen's eyebrows suddenly stood up, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and his hands involuntarily touched the handle of the butterfly knife.
Seeing this, Hong Yaozong said: "Master Qi, right? I'm just moving my shoulders. It's been raining in Macau these days. I'm getting older and my lumbar muscles are strained and my shoulders are hurting - you don't need to be so nervous!"
Qi Weiwen was not naive enough to think that these words were true. It was obvious that what Hong Yaozong did just now was a deliberate demonstration. A martial artist shrugging his shoulders is accumulating strength. The greater the force that can be exploded, the greater the range of the left and right movements.
The sound of bones becomes louder.
Like Hong Yaozong, who shrugs his shoulders from side to side like waves and pops beans, he is definitely a master among masters.
"Your Excellency, you are Hong Fo Quan, Hong Yao Sect?!" Qi Weiwen had to pay attention. Macau is such a big place, which master has Qi Weiwen not seen? Recently, the only person who can make the world in Macau frightened is to open a martial arts gym.
Besides Hong Yaozong who is attached to Ye Han, who else could be there?!
Hong Yaozong laughed, clasped his fists and said, "It's rare that Hall Master Qi has heard of my name!"
"Long respected name!"
"Both each other!" Hong Yaozong said with a smile, "I have also heard of the name of Hall Master Qi - a female owl of the 14th K generation! A butterfly knife cuts all over the Haojiang River! For me, Hall Master Qi can
Much more powerful than many heroes in the world..."
】
Hong Yaozong's words are true. In his opinion, the world is the domain of men, and few women can gain a foothold in the world. And there are even fewer women like Qi Weiwen.
…
Just when the masters Hong Yaozong and Qi Weiwen were "loving each other", Ye Han walked into the study and saw He Daheng sitting on the chair with a comfortable expression and not at all sick.
Ye Han smiled and said: "He Sheng, it seems that your disease comes and goes quickly!"
He Daheng made an invitation gesture towards Ye Han, inviting Ye Han to sit down on the sofa opposite, and said: "Businessmen, aren't they all intrigues?"
After sitting down, Ye Han very politely took out a large cigar from the cigar box on the coffee table and bit his mouth. Then he picked up the lighter placed next to him and lit the cigar he was biting. Then he smiled.
He looked at He Daheng and said: "Well said! Then you should know what I mean when I come here this time!"
"Don't you just want me to bow down to you?" He Daheng smiled, "It's just a one-sentence question, so why did you come all the way here?"
"If I don't come here specifically, will you tell me? Ten years, I've been waiting for you to say this for ten years!" Ye Han bit his cigar with an excited expression, "Since you and I met, everyone has talked about you.
You are young and smart, but I am old. I have gambling skills but no understanding of management! In the company, everyone looks up to you, but as for me, who can think highly of me?"
