Chapter 268 Happy Valley
Of course, sometimes the ideal is full and the reality is backbone.
Chen Yi is clear about this.
It is too early to say what will happen in the end.
Hong Kong is far from comparable in size to the United States and is not on the same level at all. It is even smaller than Wall Street as a whole. It is extremely difficult to stay ahead of Microsoft, Apple and other companies.
The only advantage is probably that little bit of foresight in his mind. In later generations, we will pay attention to overtaking in curves. Now he is on a straight road. Whether he can overtake depends on his strength in the process.
However, opportunities always come to those who are prepared. No matter whether things go against their expectations or get what they want, there is nothing wrong with being prepared in advance from now on.
Think about how many years Huawei has been holding back on big moves in order to catch up with the US emperor, and finally made a comeback in the 5G field.
This shows how important it is to make early preparations.
“Aren't you in class right now? Why are you all here?”
"Just after class," Li Wenhui walked up and asked, "What did you talk to the principal just now? Are you ready to go back to school?"
"Press" Chen Yi nodded, and then said: "By the way, is Teacher Wen at school? I heard from the principal that when I applied to withdraw from school, it was Teacher Wen who helped retain my student status."
Li Wenhui: "Teacher Wen is not at school. He seems to have gone to the UK to attend an academic exchange meeting. He will not be back until next week."
"Okay then." When Chen Yi heard that his teacher was not in school, he didn't say anything more. He turned to look at Li Weiya and He Xiumei on the side and said with a smile, "Why are you two here too?"
Due to previous misunderstandings with the two women, Chen Yi was often warned privately by Li Wenhui because of this. He originally thought that there would be a gap in the relationship between the three women, but now it seems that he is not affected at all.
He Xiumei raised her eyebrows and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
"Ahem" Before Chen Yi could say anything, Li Wenhui quickly said, "Xiaoyi, the three of us don't have classes in the afternoon. How about you accompany us to go horse riding in Happy Valley?"
“Going to ride horses again.” When Chen Yi heard the word 'horse rides', his face suddenly became slightly bitter.
Chen Yi wholeheartedly rejects the sport of horse riding. He personally doesn't like horse riding very much. Not to mention the dangers, the many embarrassing things that happened to him as a novice made him particularly embarrassed.
Whether it was his predecessor or Chen Yi's previous life, he was very unfamiliar with horseback riding. Although Chen Yi's family in his previous life was rich, the family was not particularly interested in the sports that the rich liked.
In the final analysis, the daily life of a charterer is to collect rent, wander around, travel and so on.
However, as the Romans do, although Chen Yi is not very interested in horse riding, he can't bear the thought of everyone around him being so fond of it.
In this era, the biggest hobby of Hong Kong people is gambling.
Horse racing betting is an activity that almost everyone participates in in Xiangjiang and Haojiang. Horse racing in Xiangjiang has a history of nearly one hundred years. As early as the early days of the opening of the port, the British brought the horse racing culture over.
From the initial aristocratic sport, it gradually evolved into an activity involving the whole people due to the birth of gambling.
How influential is the horse racing culture in Xiangjiang? Later, when China and Britain began to negotiate the future of Xiangjiang, Deng Gong used a sentence: "The horses will continue to run, and the dance will continue to dance" to express his commitment to the unchanged lifestyle of the people of Xiangjiang.
This shows how strong the horse racing culture is in Xiangjiang.
Under such circumstances, horse riding, an aristocratic sport, is naturally very popular among the upper class. A lady from a big family like Li Wenhui has been trained by her family almost since she was a child. Her riding skills cannot be said to be first-class, but she can kill Chen Da in an instant. The boss is still fine.
Although he has been to horse racing venues several times and has ridden many horses, he is still a novice and injuries during horseback riding are commonplace.
Of course, it's nothing to be injured. The main reason is that the injured area is embarrassing. Especially after dismounting, Li Wenhui stared at his legs, which made Boss Chen feel conflicted.
Conflict is still conflict, but you still have to learn.
Besides, men often ride horses, which helps their younger brothers exercise.
In addition to his girlfriend Li Wenhui, he also has two women in the company who are like wolves and tigers. There is a lot of pressure on weekdays. If he is still young and strong and can bear it, he has a temper that does not know how to control. I am afraid that his health It was already going to collapse.
After taking Li Wenhui and the three girls to have lunch outside the school, Chen Yi and his party rushed towards Happy Valley.
Today, there is only one racecourse in Xiangjiang, Happy Valley. On weekdays, people watch horse races and rich people go to Happy Valley for entertainment. As for the famous Sha Tin Racecourse in later generations, it will take a few years to come into being.
Chen Yi had just changed his clothes and came out, when he met Huo Zhenting.
“Brother Huo, you are playing here too!”
Huo Zhenting was a little surprised when he saw Chen Yi appearing here, "It's you, Xiaoyi, why do you have time to come out to play today?"
As he said that, Huo Zhenting looked around and found no one else, so he asked again: "Are you alone?"
Chen Yidao: "Wen Hui is here too and is changing clothes inside."
Huo Zhenting nodded, and then joked: "I asked you why you came out to play, your relationship is to accompany your girlfriend."
Since the last time Chen Yi visited the Huo family, Huo Zhenting has been looking for opportunities to contact Chen Yi. Unfortunately, Chen Yi is a deadbeat and is not very interested in activities such as parties.
Even if someone invites you, it is only on a push-over basis.
Huo Zhenting had no choice about this. He couldn't just come to the door. As Huo Daheng's eldest son, his price had not dropped that much.
However, since we met today, Huo Zhenting would not leave at all, so he had to talk more and get acquainted casually.
Chatting with Chen Yi, Li Wenhui and the three girls soon changed their clothes and came out.
Seeing Huo Zhenting here, He Xiumei couldn't help but said, "Hey, brother Zhenting, why are you here too?"
Huo Zhenting smiled and said: "The guy who came here with me is talking to someone about something. I came here for a walk if I have nothing to do. Don't you have any classes today? Why are you all running out to play?"
“There is no class in the afternoon, so let's come here to have some fun.” After saying that, He Xiumei suddenly thought of something and couldn't help asking cautiously: “Are my uncle Jiu and others here too?”
“That's not true,” Huo Zhenting shook his head.
"That's good." He Xiumei couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief when she heard that her uncle was not there. It could be seen that she was a little afraid of her uncle.
Huo Zhenting smiled at He Xiumei's reaction and said nothing.
