Hong Kong was a transportation hub, a point of departure for the Diao famly. The next stop could be Brazil or America. Not sure which, they knew they wouldn't stay in Hong Kong forever. They came to Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, a less vibrant place then, and settled down in a new building on Chatham Road.
