Chapter 2331

Hibernation

Li Huaide never expected that during the two years he spent in seclusion, he would have the opportunity to get involved with He Yuzhu again.

To be honest, it was quite unexpected for him to meet Wang Xiaohu, who claimed to be He Yuzhu's second senior brother.

He was just taking a stroll in the park when he heard the old man humming a few words; the old man's Mandarin was very standard.

So I went up and chatted for a bit, and that's how we got to know each other.

After the old man appeared beside him, Li Huaide also went to great lengths to investigate the man's background.

Because he didn't believe that such a coincidence would happen to him.

His feelings for He Yuzhu were very strange.

He could treat He Yuzhu as a friend, and even when he returned to Beijing and sat down with He Yuzhu...
He could still feel a sense of superiority over He Yuzhu.

No matter what, he could be considered He Yuzhu's former boss and his mentor.

He was the one who discovered He Yuzhu, and he was also the one who provided support for He Yuzhu's early career.

But he is now very clear about it.

If he wants to build a successful career in the future, he must secure the support of the He family.

Putting aside other things, Ran Qiuye is currently quite popular in the Hong Kong Island economic circle.

The owner of Hong Kong Island's largest electronics contract manufacturer invested 20 million in mainland China, making headlines overnight.

But that person was just a small business that the He family had helped to build up.

All the orders she received were business from Lou Xiao'e.

Even Ran Qiuye's video recorder assembly business
If Lou Xiao'e hadn't tacitly allowed Lai Hongchang to protect Ran Qiuye and act as the final distributor...

Na Ran Qiuye also found it difficult to move an inch.

Over the past two years, Li Huaide has carefully analyzed Lou Xiao'e's industrial layout.

Although it looks a bit chaotic, it seems that Lou Xiao'e and her son are doing a little bit of everything.

But there are still some key points.

The kitchen and bathroom industry is Lou Xiao'e's safety net business.

According to Li Huaide's observation, it seems that Lou Xiao'e only regarded the electrical appliance industry as a cash cow and a link between her and the mainland.

Actually, I don't value it too much.

The amount of R&D funding invested was not much.

The telecommunications industry is where Lou Xiao'e is focusing her efforts.

There are also those Americard computer companies that He Xinghua invested in.

Every now and then, a news story pops up saying that a certain company is now worth over 100 million.

He Xinghua, as an angel investor, profited handsomely from a certain investment project.

One by one, according to Li Huaide's observations.

The investment business under the He Group has formed a well-developed business empire that can both advance and retreat.

However, the only listed business under the Ho Group is a telecommunications company, so outsiders cannot see the true extent of the Ho Group's influence.

In fact, Li Huaide didn't see it all clearly either.

He only knew one thing: Ran Qiuye was just a branch of the He Group's business.

But given Ran Qiuye's growth trajectory, in five or ten years, Hong Kong Island will have another self-made billionaire.

Given his relationship with He Yuzhu and his abilities, if He Yuzhu were to give him a chance, he would undoubtedly do better than Ran Qiuye.

And it is a legitimate industry that can be openly and honestly displayed.

The kind of wealth that can be legally and legitimately passed on to his son, without fear of being coveted.

If you think about an opportunity, the opportunity will come.

Li Huaide was also afraid that this was a trap set by his enemies who knew him well, specifically for him or the He family.

So we investigated it carefully.
I know that Wang Xiaohu has been living here for more than ten years.

And he did indeed make a living as a cook.

Ultimately, there was nothing suspicious about it, which is why he sent the telegram to He Yuzhu. Li Huaide knew very well that this was his chance.

Even if he doesn't want to admit it, it's the truth.

As long as he grasps it...
Even a tiny bit of money leaking from between He Yuzhu's fingers would be enough for the Li family to make a name for themselves in Hong Kong and truly enter high society.

This is not for him personally, but for the Li family.

If it were just about him personally, he would probably prefer to treat He Yuzhu as a friend with no vested interests involved.

Old Li carried a basket of vegetables up the stairs; today was the day he was going to eat at You Fengxia's place.

Actually, he had been eating at You Fengxia's place for a while.

Originally, after he brought You Fengxia to Hong Kong Island, he had discussed it with his two wives.

I spent four days with my wife and three days with You Fengxia.

At that moment, Lao Li thought of an idiom: "Changing one's mind constantly."

At first, his legal wife would stew all sorts of tonics for him every day to nourish his body.

What I told Lao Li was that I wanted to have a few more children for him.

She's incredibly clingy, wishing she could keep Old Li there every day.

But after Lao Li said that his business outside was over, his wife was not so attentive to him anymore.

Even if Old Li were to go there now, he wouldn't be bothered to cook a meal.

Li Huaide wasn't angry; instead, he thought the woman was incredibly stupid.

When you don't have the strength to be independent, you're already being so obvious to Lao Li. Do you really think he's the kind of sheep that just passively accepts whatever comes your way and eats grass?
However, for the sake of his young son, he was willing to let that woman continue to cause trouble for a few more years.

When his son grows up and can go to boarding school, he'll deal with her then and let that woman know who's in charge.

These days, Li Huaide usually eats and drinks at You Fengxia's place.

He often brought his son along as well.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, he wanted his son to spend more time with You Fengxia and gradually become closer to her.

His wife naturally had her opinions as well.

However, the opinions were not that strong.

Because Li Huaide didn't care about her, she could go out and have all sorts of fun and card games.

Either of these is more fun than staying at home and taking care of the kids.

"Mr. Li, we are from the He Group. Our boss wants to see you." Li Huaide had just reached the sixth floor of his apartment building when he encountered two men in suits.

Those two guys were wearing sunglasses and their suits were perfectly tailored in the hallway; they probably thought they looked really cool.

But Old Li wanted nothing more than to curse them out.

Damn, it would have been much better to wait for him downstairs; it would have saved him the trouble of climbing the stairs.

With his big belly, climbing stairs must be very tiring for him.

There was nothing he could do; when he bought the apartment, it was in an old building. It did have an elevator, but the elevator doors were the kind with iron railings that you had to pull from the outside in.

It breaks down once or twice a month.

He really didn't dare to ride that thing.

But Lao Li also knew that the other party probably didn't know he had gone out to buy groceries.

They went straight to his house, but he wasn't there, so they waited on his floor.

They've already been very polite.

Old Li took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, forced a smile and said, "Please wait for me a moment, I'll take the vegetables back and change my clothes while I'm at it."

"Please go ahead, Mr. Li!"

When Lao Li reappeared, the former business elite was back in the public eye.

Her entire demeanor was completely different from before. (End of Chapter)
