The now canceled Apprentice had 'The Donald' but HK/China always had the bigger and the better with Li Ka Sing - a much more reserved, no frills, less big mouth, and more intelligent and shrewd business man. Move the fuck over Mr. Trump...

What a MAN!

Yes, Li kai shing is very big deal, almost movie star status in the asian business world. When I lived there, I would hear his name mentioned once or twice a day by someone be it an office worker or a street vendor.

And a more humble down to earth version.

Scary when those that have no talent are the top of the entertainment industry. I just wish they would leave the bussiness guys to out of hollywood

Well, his show did get cancelled by NBC so it shows that we could only tolerate so much of that guy. It's funny how he said he "quit" rather than got "fired".

LOL I wish NBC would say YOure Fired to him. Or teeshirts would come out with the NBC peacock kicking him in the butt.
