The Jiang family's mansion was located at 15 Changjia Road, Banshan District.
The Banshan District of Hong Kong was a high-class residential area, located between the top of Taiping Mountain and the Central Ring. The location was excellent, and many buildings could directly overlook the busy Victoria Harbor. Therefore, it was favored by Hong Kong's rich and affluent immigrants.
There were many historic villas and mansions in the Banshan District, and the Jiang family's mansion was one of them. It was built 50 years ago by the Jiang family's grandfather with all his savings. It was a combination of Chinese and Western style, and it was quite famous among the mansions in the Banshan District.
The Jiang family had gone through ups and downs for decades, and there was a time when they were close to bankruptcy. However, the Jiang family had never thought of selling this valuable ancestral house, because this big house represented the roots of the Jiang family, and it was a symbol of the spirit of maintaining the unity of the family.
Only those who lived in the Jiang family's mansion were qualified to lead the entire Jiang family.
Jiang Chenghua moved out of the Jiang family's mansion ten years ago. As an independent child, he rarely came back unless it was necessary.
This was because this luxurious and imposing mansion always gave him an oppressive and oppressive feeling, making it difficult for him to breathe.
He didn't know how comfortable it was to live outside.
But today, he had no choice but to come, because the owner of this mansion, his father, was in a terrible rage.
The moment he stepped into the gate, Jiang Chenghua couldn't help but smile bitterly.
If there was medicine for regret in the world, he would buy one even if it cost him tens of millions of yuan to turn back time to a week ago.
In this way, Jiang Chenghua could prevent a tragedy from happening.
As the boss of Honghua Restaurant, he had been under great pressure from all sides in the past few days.
Jiang Chenghua really didn't expect that a small matter that he thought could be easily solved would turn into a storm of public opinion against him. The dog abuse incident had been hyped up in Hong Kong, and Honghua Company had been thrown a lot of rotten eggs and rotten tomatoes, forcing them to temporarily close down.
And he himself had become a street rat. His fair-weather friends had all avoided him, and the beautiful women who often appeared around him had all disappeared. Everyone was afraid to avoid him.
When did Jiang Chenghua fall into such a situation?
Things happened too fast, and the opponent's means of stirring up public opinion was simply vicious. They took advantage of the negligence of his people and directly nailed Honghua Company to the pillar of shame and became the target of tens of thousands of people's curses …
Now, the fire had spread to the Jiang family.
After all, his surname was Jiang!
The more Jiang Chenghua thought about it, the angrier he felt. He couldn't help but pull the tie around his neck.
"Young Master Sun, you're here?"
The white-haired butler was waiting in the hall. He looked at Jiang Chenghua with a slightly reproachful gaze and said softly, "Young Master is waiting for you in the study. He hasn't eaten today, so don't make him angry again."
Jiang Chenghua had always been arrogant and unyielding, but in front of this senior statesman who had served the Jiang Family for fifty years and had served Forefather Jiang, Jiang Chenghua's grandfather, and was now serving Jiang Chenghua's father, Jiang Tai, Jiang Chenghua did not dare to be rude.
"Ninth Uncle, I know I was wrong."
The old housekeeper smiled and said, "It's good that you know you were wrong. Quickly go in."
Jiang Chenghua agreed and hurried to the study on the second floor.
When he arrived at the study, Jiang Chenghua knocked on the door and entered. He saw his father sitting behind the desk. There were seven or eight people sitting on the left and right, including his two brothers and several executives of the Jiang Group.
Everyone's eyes fell on him. Some were sympathetic, some were condemning, some were hating him for failing to meet their expectations, and some were gloating.
The ones who were gloating were undoubtedly his two brothers, who were outwardly harmonious but inwardly hostile!
Seeing such a situation, Jiang Chenghua really wanted to retreat immediately. However, under Jiang Tai's fierce gaze, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and greet him, "Father, are you looking for me?"
Jiang Tai snorted and said, "I know it's very difficult for me to invite you, the Third Young Master of the Jiang family. However, our Jiang family has reached a moment of life and death. You are also a member of the Jiang family. You can't just stay out of it, right?"
Life and death!
Jiang Chenghua was shocked. Was the matter so serious?
Although the dog abuse incident by the Honghua employees had put him in a passive position, there was still a way to solve it. Anyway, the people who did it had been detained by the police. They could just directly plead guilty and pay compensation.
As for the public opinion, as long as they were sincere in admitting their mistakes and spent more money to clear up the media, the situation would actually pass quickly. It was impossible for everyone to keep staring at this matter.
The Little Pet Protection Association was a very big problem. However, the Jiang family could completely contact them through various connections. It was just a little bit of money and they would naturally be able to pass.
No matter what, it was impossible to shake the foundation of the Jiang family!
"Father, I'm already thinking of a way to solve this matter. It's nothing more than lowering our heads and admitting our mistakes …"
Jiang Chenghua asked in disbelief, "Do you want the Jiang family to pay with our lives just because you killed a few dogs?"
Jiang Tai's face was as still as water. He did not speak.
A middle-aged man sitting on his left coughed and said, "Third Young Master, the two factories we invested in on the mainland were raided by the tax bureau yesterday. The financial accounts have been seized. We may face a heavy fine."
"In addition, the Environmental Protection Bureau also came today to conduct a major environmental inspection!"
This time, Jiang Chenghua was really confused.
Since the reform and opening up, the economic development level of the mainland had been growing rapidly. The huge market, rich products, and human resources had made the mainland the first choice for Xiangjiang entrepreneurs to invest.
The top ten richest people in Xiangjiang all had a lot of investments in the mainland. They relied on the mainland to earn astronomical wealth. Of course, the Jiang family would not miss the opportunity to make a fortune. As early as 20 years ago, they began to follow the trend.
A few years ago, the Jiang's Group, which had tasted the sweetness of the new wave of economic growth in the mainland, had invested in the construction of two new large-scale factories in the mainland. They had only recently put into production and sales.
The two projects had hooked up most of the Jiang family's funds, including a bank loan of hundreds of millions. Seeing that they had begun to make profits, they had unexpectedly been raided by the tax bureau.
Jiang Chenghua was very clear that the two large factories of his family in the mainland, whether it was tax or environmental protection, were 100% fishy. Once they were checked, they would definitely be found out.
This was actually a common problem of many Xiangjiang enterprises investing in the mainland. However, the local government often turned a blind eye to the economic development. As long as it was not too excessive, they could get by.
Moreover, the Jiang's Group also paid great attention to the communication with the local government agencies.
But now something had happened!
Jiang Chenghua's intuition told him that the Jiang's Group's investment projects being checked in the mainland could not be separated from the matter of him dealing with the small film crew.
Although this association was very absurd and unbelievable, Jiang Chenghua did not think of other possibilities.
