The Son of Finance of the Great Age Chapter 113

  Chapter 113 Half Mountain Club

  Zhang Wei came for six days, and after a good time, he went back reluctantly. His visa is only seven days, even if he wants to stay for a long time, it is impossible. But Zhong Shi knew in his heart that this kid would definitely come again in a short time, and Zhong Shi was very clear about the small ninety-nine in his heart.

  In mid-December, Zhong Shi received a call from Liao Chengde, asking him to accompany him to a party at night. Zhong Shi happened to have nothing to do, so he agreed.

   "Zhong Shi, why are you dressed so simply?"

  Seeing Zhong Shi wearing blue jeans and an unremarkable light gray coat walking over absent-mindedly, Liao Chengde and Liao Xiaohua in evening dress couldn't help being dumbfounded.

   "What's the matter? Isn't it just for a meal? Why are you dressed so grandly, Lao Liao, could it be that you can't marry the second wife today?"

  Zhong Shi was taken aback when he heard the words, then he looked at his clothes, saw the serious attire of the Liao family and his son, and joked casually.

  Liao Xiaohua is okay, but Liao Chengde's face darkened suddenly. This kind of words are just a joke for young people, but for people of his age, it seems a bit too much.

   Fortunately, he has been with Zhong Shi for a long time, and knowing that Zhong Shi has this temper, he didn't take it too seriously. After staring fiercely at Liao Xiaohua, who was snickering beside him, Liao Chengde said helplessly, "This is not a simple meal, but a gathering among business people, and you have to dress formally to be decent..."

  Liao Xiaohua was a little dumbfounded. Zhong Shi has a genius side in some aspects, but he is a bit too casual in other aspects.

  Hong Kong is a British colony and is heavily influenced by Western culture, especially among the upper classes. When the so-called elites hold parties and communicate with each other, it is often the same as abroad. The men wear straight ironed tuxedos, and the women wear evening dresses with bare **** and backs, and then hold a glass of champagne in their hands. Make a polite posture to talk to each other and connect with each other.

  If Zhong Shi wore such a suit to the banquet, he would definitely become the focus of the audience, and of course, he would be the focus of being ridiculed secretly.

  The higher the standard of the banquet, the more particular about the attire. The party has become a fashion show in disguise, but has lost its original appearance.

  If someone of great status dressed up like Zhong Shi, such as the richest man or the governor of Hong Kong, he would definitely be called low-key or close to the people, and he would even be on the headlines of the newspaper the next day. But if it were Zhong Shi, he would definitely be an uninvited guest, maybe he would be chased away by the security guards before even entering the club's gate.

   "Old Liao, do you have to dress like you?" After hearing Liao Chengde's words, Zhong Shi suddenly put on a bitter face, and said with some reluctance. He also experienced this in his previous life, and he was still enjoying it at the time, but since he was reborn, he has taken a lot of light on these superficial falsehoods, and he doesn't care so much about other people's opinions.

  Now he is making money for himself, and he doesn't need to look at investors' faces, and he doesn't need to make false claims.

"I have agreed to the person in charge of the Hualian News Agency. This time they initiated the initiative and invited many celebrities from the Hong Kong business community. There are big men like Li Jiangli, Huo Leizhou, Rong Qikang, and..." Liao Chengde chattered After talking for a long time, I realized that Zhong Shi was indifferent, and it was Liao Xiaohua who was at the side who said loudly: "It's nothing, let's buy a few casually and deal with it first, and then say no later, can it be all right?"

  Since Liao Xiaohua said so, Zhong Shi can't insist on anything. Besides, he also needs to keep in touch with the official organization at all times, so as not to lose the relationship between the two parties over time.

Naturally, you can't buy any good clothes when you are cramming. When Liao Chengde parked the Rolls-Royce at the door of those ordinary clothing stores, even the employees in the store couldn't help but roll their eyes, sighing secretly that the rich now People can really pretend to be low-key. In the end, after visiting three or four clothing stores, Zhong Shi bought a well-fitting suit for 500 Hong Kong dollars, but Liao Chengde paid for it on his behalf. Zhong Shi went out in a hurry and didn't even bring his wallet.

"It's not bad here, but you can buy a house here. There must be a lot of room for appreciation in the future." Zhong Shi lives in Repulse Bay at the southern end of Hong Kong Island, while Mid-Levels is in Central at the northern end, opposite the famous Victoria Harbour. . At this moment, it is just the beginning of the Chinese lanterns, and the gorgeous neon lights light up the entire harbor, which is one of the world-famous night scenes.

"Hey, Zhong Shi, don't you know? Mid-Levels is a well-known wealthy area. It was impossible for us to buy a house here before. The Mid-Levels Club we go to is the most famous club in Hong Kong. The membership system is not something that can be entered with money, and it must be able to have a strong enough relationship with the government..."

  With an envious expression on his face, Liao Xiaohua explained the situation of the Mid-Level Club to Zhong Shi in detail. He had tried to make an idea of ​​this club member before, but he was rejected by the reception staff before entering the review process.

   "It's impossible even if you have money?" Zhong Shi curled his lips and asked in disbelief. With his current net worth, he is enough to rank among the top ten richest people in Hong Kong, and he still has cash that can be drawn out at any time, which is much stronger than many rich people who are only on paper. "I spent 100 million dollars and directly privatized his club. Do you think it will work?"

   "Hey, don't talk about membership, you can even be the chairman!" Liao Xiaohua laughed, but he didn't take it seriously.

After driving for about half an hour, the Rolls-Royce finally stopped at the mountainside of Taiping Mountain. Zhong Shi got out of the car and looked at the surrounding environment. There was a faint light flickering, that was the club they were going to, there was still a distance of five or six hundred meters, and there was a two-person high iron fence erected at the parking place, and there were a few men with naked eyes behind them from time to time Look around.

  After showing the invitation card, Liao Chengde's car was put in. After a few minutes, the car stopped again. The receptionist quickly ran over to open the car door, and welcomed the three of them in respectfully.

After entering the Mid-Levels Club, I went through several corridors to a huge living room. A huge ornate crystal chandelier was hung from the ceiling, and the soft and non-glare light illuminated every corner of the hall. In the middle, the waiters in tuxedos were constantly shuttling through the crowd with bubbling champagne, and there were already dozens of visitors standing in the hall, chatting together in groups of twos and threes.

  When Liao Chengde and his son appeared in front of everyone surrounded by cheap Zhong Shi, most of the people present nodded slightly, and no one came to say hello.

It's no wonder that Liao Chengde's current foreign trade company specializes in doing business in mainland China, and his previous business is a bit unspeakable. Moreover, this company is not listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Except for a few people, there is no one else I know the details.

   "Chairman Liao, you are here, this is your son, right? Who is this?"

  When Zhong Shi and others entered the hall, an old man in his fifties with a square face greeted him, and stretched out his hand two or three meters away. He first shook hands with Liao Chengde, gave him a knowing look, then nodded to Liao Xiaohua, and finally fixed his eyes on Zhong Shi in the middle of the three of them.

   "This is the vice president of the Hualian News Agency, Mr. Xu Mai, a senior party official..."

Liao Chengde subconsciously introduced the old man in front of Zhong Shi, and then felt that something was wrong, and said with embarrassment: "This is Mr. Zhong, he is my old friend, I will bring him to see See you. Mr. Xu will take care of you in the future."

  Vice President of Hualian News Agency, senior party official? Zhong Shi was startled. He knew that the party committee in mainland China was bigger than the administrative agency. Although the person in front of him was only the vice president, the position of senior party official showed that this person was the highest person in charge of the mainland government in Hong Kong.

How shrewd is a person who can become a senior official at the deputy ministerial level. Liao Chengde's subconscious actions betrayed Zhong Shi's identity, making Xu Mai realize that Zhong Shi may not be as simple as he is wearing, but a very important person in the Liao family. characters.

Between the lightning flashes, Xu Mai thought that when he cooperated with the Liao family before, Liao Chengde once asked for ten passes. He stretched out his hand calmly and greeted with an equal attitude: "Hello, Zhong Sir, you just came to Hong Kong not long ago, are you still used to living here?"

  His posture was very low, and what he said seemed to be ordinary greetings, but in fact there was something in his words. One must know that in his capacity, even the governor of Hong Kong should pay more attention to him. This "corporate of respect and virtuousness" immediately made many people in the hall look sideways, and they all asked who the half-grown young man was.

   "What does Mr. Xu mean by saying this? Are you threatening me?" Zhong Shi is soft but not hard, but he doesn't like Xu Mai's. As soon as his palm touched Xu Mai's hand, he immediately retracted it.

For a party like this, everyone who can attend will show enough etiquette and demeanor. An act like Zhong Shi's is already a big disgrace, but this kind of behavior can barely be justified by a rich second generation who knows nothing about the sky and the earth. .

   "Did I miss it?" Xu Mai smiled slightly, and didn't take Zhong Shi's faux pas to heart at all. After exchanging a few words with Liao Chengde, he greeted other people with full of doubts.

   "Hey, Xiao Hua, let's go over there..."

When Liao Chengde raised his wine glass and began to greet some specific businessmen under the leadership of a staff member of the Hualian News Agency, Zhong Shi and Liao Xiaohua did not walk towards another group of young people who were talking in low voices, but towards The dining table on the left side of the living room pouted.

On that row of tables, there are large plates of exquisite food, including cheesecake, cherry mousse, crispy egg tart, steamed scallops, orange cod, braised lobster, spaghetti bolognese, fruit pudding, vegetable salad, milk Strawberries and so on. There are also various red wines on the side of these colorful and fragrant dinner plates. Two waiters wearing tall chef hats are standing straight behind the table, waiting with a smile on their faces. At the call of the guests.

  Liao Xiaohua really wanted to explain that these things are just for display, and it is not good to really eat them. He pulled Zhong Shi, but he didn't pull, so he followed Zhong Shi with a wry smile.
