Rebirth: 1977

The Yuntianshuise Hotel officially opened on December 5, 1983.

When this hotel was built on Hong Kong Island, it attracted attention from the industry.

Its scale is twice that of the most famous Mandarin Hotel!

The decoration and facilities are in line with international standards, and even with the addition of elements of oriental culture, it has attracted the pursuit and love of many overseas Chinese.

On the first day of opening, the hotel's occupancy rate reached 80 percent.

Most of the guests are foreign businessmen and overseas Chinese who come to the mainland in groups to inspect projects and make investments.

Hong Kong Island is the first stop they must visit upon landing.

The Governor of Hong Kong gave a lot of face to Ye Tianshui and Fu Jinyan. Not only did he come himself, he also invited several of the biggest gang leaders in Hong Kong Island to attend the celebration ceremony.

In this era, there are many gangs of all sizes in the prosperous Hong Kong Island, and even the police are unable to get involved with the gangs.

WEI's subordinates control several of the largest gangs in Hong Kong Island, and use them to balance the various forces in Hong Kong Island.

No matter how powerful a gang is, it has to rely on the Governor of Hong Kong for its livelihood.

If you really anger him and the government behind him, they can be destroyed in a minute.

"Master Ye, Master Fu, congratulations!"

WEI took the lead in congratulating.

He brought a glittering golden signboard with the words "Sky and Water" covered with red silk.

Amid the sound of firecrackers, Ye Tianshui immediately ordered people to hang it up.

Those gang bosses all have their own businesses in Hong Kong Island and monopolize and control some industries.

Upon seeing the newly opened hotel, the Governor of Hong Kong came in person to congratulate him. It seemed that he had a close relationship with the hotel owner. They were both people who bullied the weak and feared the strong.

One by one, they came forward to greet Ye Tianshui and Fu Jinyan.

Some of them had dealt with Fu Jinyan before and had some personal relationship with him. They knew about his strong background and huge wealth.

The gifts were very generous.

None of them knew Ye Tianshui, who was standing next to Fu Jinyan with a majestic look, and they all asked about his background in private.

But apart from knowing that everyone calls him "Master Ye", he is on good terms with the rich family masters' brothers, is a shareholder of the newly opened hotel, and has a good relationship with the Governor of Hong Kong. He is treated like a guest of honor when entering and leaving the Governor's Palace, as if he is entering an empty house.

Just these things have made everyone dare not underestimate this young man.

This is a treatment they have never enjoyed before.

When congratulating just now, the Governor of Hong Kong even placed the head of the wealthy family behind "Mr. Ye" when addressing him.

As they were speculating about Ye Tianshui's origins, they couldn't help but feel alert.

After returning, I must warn my subordinates that they cannot touch or interfere with the Yuntianshuise Hotel.

It is human instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm. Even a powerful gang dare not go against or challenge it.

"Master Ye, Master Fu, this is a blessed golden toad. I wish you a prosperous business!"

"Master Ye, Master Fu, this is a blessed Pixiu. I wish you all your wishes come true and you will make a fortune!"

"Master Ye, Master Fu, this is a blessed jade ruyi. I wish you all the best and a prosperous business!"

"Master Ye, Master Fu, this is..."

Each and every one given away was a large, valuable ornament; Hong Kong Islanders are very particular about opening a business.

In addition to the gifts, there was also thick cash stuffed into big red envelopes. The people responsible for registering the gifts were Jiang Ping and Tong Dakai.

Fu Shenyan and Tong Dawei were entertaining guests inside.

Chen Xingwang still kept a close eye on the kitchen, not daring to make any mistakes.

Zi Lan and Wen Juan stayed in the suite with their children, leaning against the window to watch the lively scene.

Xu Kai and his men were guarding the elevator door and fire escape staircase on the 28th floor, and no outsiders could get in.

Xu Fengzhen and several staff members of Ye Tianshui Foreign Trade Company pretended to be service staff and maintained order in the banquet hall.

Guide guests to their seats.

Led by Director Ding, the staff of the United Front Work Department's Overseas Chinese Federation Office in Hong Kong Island had already sat down at an inconspicuous table in the banquet hall.

"I didn't expect that our Minister Ye has such wide connections. The Governor was very polite when he met him."

"You should know that the Fu family is very wealthy abroad, and they are very rich and powerful. They can be brothers with our Minister Ye and treat him with respect."

"Hey, we already knew this. Did you know that the foreign businessmen staying at the hotel are all financially strong and are here to invest in our country?"

They proudly whispered what they knew.

Director Ding looked after the two young men sitting next to him:

"Keep your eyes open, don't forget your responsibilities, remember these people's faces, and you will know what to do when you come to register with us next time.

No one knows if there are spies among them.”

Dr. Li and Nurse Qu, who had taken care of Hua Zilan during her delivery, as well as Dr. Chen and Owen from the neurosurgery department, were also invited.

"Where's Mrs. Ye? Why don't I see her?"

Nurse Qu asked Doctor Li.

“She is seven months pregnant and it is certainly not appropriate for her to show her face at such an occasion.

Besides, she has two babies to take care of.

Mrs. Ye has made an appointment with me to come to our hospital for a prenatal checkup the day after tomorrow, and she will bring her two twin babies with her."

Hua Zilan had already informed Dr. Li of these situations when inviting them to the dinner.

With Zi Lan's status, there is no need for her to come out to entertain guests while pregnant.

To curry favor with the powerful is what others have to do to them nowadays.

Ye Tianshui and Fu Jinyan decided to invite all the guests who had already checked in to attend the banquet and have a drink of wedding wine.

Among those guests were business partners and suppliers of the Fu and Tong families.

The foreign businessmen who received the invitation were extremely excited. It was an honor, and they were competing to see whose red envelopes were bigger.

Ye Tianshui had already discussed and decided with several shareholders that, except for those large ornaments that had been blessed, all other gifts would be collected and placed in the most conspicuous place at the entrance.

All cash red envelopes will be returned after the banquet.

The way of refunding is to send VIP cards. In the future, whether guests come to stay or eat, all guests holding VIP cards will enjoy permanent discounts.

Restaurants, 30% off.

50% off on guest rooms.

For other guests, if the hotel is newly opened within three months, the restaurant will offer an 15% discount.

Rooms, 35% off.

The dishes served at the 'Skylight and Water' Hotel are the most distinctive in Hong Kong Island.

The service is also first-class.

The prices of restaurants and rooms are the same as other hotels in Hong Kong Island without discounts.

Ye Tianshui’s suggestion is not to engage in price wars but to improve services to give guests reasons to choose their hotel.

The two large banquet halls can accommodate forty tables, and there are also private rooms and small banquet halls that can accommodate another thirty tables.

Today, fifty tables will be set up.

When the kitchen started serving the dishes, two guests arrived, surprising Ye Tianshui.

"Mr. Ye, congratulations. Sorry for coming uninvited. We brothers are just here to send you our best wishes."

"Mr. Ye, congratulations. Sorry, I'm a little late."

Ye Tianshui was just slightly stunned for a moment, then immediately greeted him with a smile:

"Uncle Ding, Uncle Ding, welcome, welcome. You are a guest. The time is just right. We are ready to serve the feast. Please take your seats."

Ye Tianshui did not expect that Grandma Ding’s two sons would appear at the hotel’s celebration ceremony.

After Grandma Ding passed away, he didn't even think about keeping in touch with them.

However, since he was here, he had to express his welcome.

Moreover, he also had the "suicide note" that Grandma Ding left for her two sons.

Ye Tianshui originally wanted to find an opportunity to contact the Ding brothers again after the hotel opened and give them the suicide note.
