Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings

Tu Meng and his people came and left quickly.

Soon the entire British Consulate would return to calm.

Du Yongxiao didn't feel anything yet, and Consul Gui Lao and others looked at him wrongly.

For them, Du Yongxiao's identity is full of mystery. How could a Hong Kong chief superintendent know African warlords? It seemed that the other party was very respectful to him.

Those big guys who had previously dismissed Du Yongxiao began to be enthusiastic about Du Yongxiao. Some even took the initiative to talk to Du Yongxiao, trying to extract some useful information. Unfortunately, Du Yongxiao was very strict, so they all tried in vain.

In any case, Du Yongxiao's status at this time became the most unique one among the entire exchange group composed of thirteen people.

Neither the ghost guys nor the Chinese tycoons dared to look down upon him.

That afternoon, Du Yongxiao received a call from Zhao Yazhi in his dormitory.

On the phone, Zhao Yazhi told Du Yongxiao that he was going to fly back to Hong Kong.

Du Yongxiao seized the opportunity and asked Zhao Yazhi again if he was willing to give up his career as a stewardess and join Jiahe as an actor.

Regarding Du Yongxiao's second invitation, Zhao Yazhi did not hesitate this time and smiled on the other end of the phone: "If the salary is high enough, maybe I will consider it."

"That's up to you." Du Yongxiao laughed, "If you become a star through filming, you will enjoy star-level treatment. Otherwise, you can only be an ordinary actor."

Zhao Yazhi stuck out her tongue on the other end of the phone, "It seems that the entertainment industry is not easy to deal with! But there is nothing I can do. Who saved me? If I don't agree to your promise, you, a talent scout, will probably lose your job."

Until now, Zhao Yazhi still regards Du Yongxiao as a talent scout for Hong Kong Jiahe Company.

Du Yongxiao smiled: "Yes, you are the first beautiful star I have discovered. If you don't agree, Jiahe will kick me out!"

"Haha, okay! I promise you!" Zhao Yazhi said cheerfully on the other end of the phone, "I, Zhao Yazhi, am a loyal person! In addition, if I really become a star in the future, then you don't want to be a talent scout. ——”

"Well, what would I do if I wasn't a talent scout?"

"Come to me and be my personal assistant!" After a pause, Zhao Yazhi smiled like a flower: "I'll support you!"

Zhao Yazhi seemed to feel that this sentence was full of ambiguity. After finishing speaking, Zhao Yazhi quickly hung up the phone and felt her cheeks burning.

"You support me?" Du Yongxiao was stunned on the other end of the phone. This was the funniest thing he had ever heard in his life, but behind the fun, there was a pure girl's heart.

"Mr. Du, I'm going to take action!"

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door outside.

Du Yongxiao then took back his reverie, hung up the phone, and said to the door: "Okay, I'll come right away!"

…

Throughout the next afternoon, Du Yongxiao attended the economic development and investment reception hosted by the Kenyan government with the exchange group.

The so-called cocktail party is actually a buffet, sandwiches, ham, cheese, etc., and some foreign wine, such as whiskey, brandy, vodka, etc. For an underdeveloped country like Kenya, this is the best way to entertain foreign guests. Good treatment.

On ordinary days, Kenyan people don’t even have enough to eat. Many people have to chew tree bark and eat rats.

This is why roasted rat meat is so popular in Kenya and is called "golden barbecue".

Du Yongxiao was not the protagonist of the reception, the protagonists were Lin Baixin, Li Zhaofu, and the Hong Kong Investment Board.

Kenya also sent a very grand reception team. Except for the president who did not come, almost all senior officials were present.

The purpose of the reception is very simple, that is, Kenya wants to get money from these investors to invest in various projects in Kenya, including logistics and transportation, stadium construction, department store construction, and mineral deposit development.

Among them, what attracts these Hong Kong richest people the most is the development of mineral deposits. As we all know, Kenya is uniquely endowed in Africa, with diamond mines and gold reserves all ranking among the best.

In particular, the huge diamond mine that was just discovered has attracted the attention of the world and made countless investors salivate.

But these Hong Kong rich people and the bosses of the Hong Kong Investment Bureau are not fools.

On the surface, Kenya now implements popular elections and a presidential system, copying the system of the British Empire. In fact, the Kenyan military is the master of the entire country. The so-called democratic system is just a cover. The real Kenya is still a warlord dictatorship.

So those mineral deposits look very attractive, but in fact they are controlled by the country's major chaebols. The government's so-called investment invitation for joint mining is just a "slogan" to get you to take the money.

If you really want to develop those mineral deposits, you must ask those warlords.

The three-day economic and investment exchange meeting will come to an end soon.

Little success has been achieved, much to the dismay of the Kenyan government.

These Hong Kong tycoons and investment bureau bosses are all masters who don't see rabbits but don't let hawks fly. Since the Kenyan government cannot show sincerity and guarantee the safety of investments, they will not spend a penny to waste their money.

The situation seemed a bit awkward.

After all, as a host, the Kenyan government is so welcoming, but as a guest, it is not even willing to pay a penny.

The next exchange was about maintaining public security. This time, Du Yongxiao became the protagonist.

Kenya's public security is chaotic, warlords are entrenched in various places, and the police system exists in name only.

Many times soldiers broke the law and simply ignored the local police and fled directly back to the military camp.

As for whether they will be punished, it depends on the mood of the warlord leaders.

Compared with the local police's inability to control and restrain the army and soldiers, they wantonly exploited the poor people, which is seven times darker than Hong Kong today.

The Hong Kong police are ruthless enough, but they can still solve crimes and do something practical to help the people.

The police here in Kenya are completely black. They cover prostitutes, gamblers, extort people, and do whatever they can to make money.

Immigration, extorting passengers.

Wet market, ripping off vendors.

Kenya is full of casinos, fan stalls and private prostitutes -——

In the poverty-stricken underground world, there is nothing you can't think of, and there is nothing you can't buy. You can even buy the legendary "black slaves" in this civilized era.

Du Yongxiao looked at the first-hand information about the Kenyan police in his hand and couldn't help frowning, "Can such a policeman be saved?"

Du Yongxiao made up his mind to be casual and perfunctory in the next exchange.

When the time is almost up, I will go back to Hong Kong with the exchange group and not wade through this muddy water again.

Just when Du Yongxiao made up his mind, King Kong asked someone to bring news and asked Du Yongxiao to go to the resort to talk.

Only then did Du Yongxiao remember that he had promised King Kong that he would have a drink with him to reminisce about old times. He was so busy these days that he forgot about it, so he immediately decided: "Okay, I'll go right away!"
