With the advent of the stock market crash, the citizens of Hong Kong Island are not interested in anything. Even the grand award ceremony held at the Hung Hom Stadium, stock investors have no feeling at all. Now the only interest they are interested in is when the stock market will surge again, or even
Burning incense and worshiping Buddha everywhere.
It is different for some people who cashed in early and high positions, such as the villagers of Tin Shui Wai. They and the employees of the Jade Emperor Group happily participated in three award ceremonies. The celebrities presented wonderful performances for everyone, which was the envy of the citizens of Southeast Asia.

Zhu Xiaolan from Kowloon looked at the New Year's goods piled on the ground and let out a long breath. Moving these things upstairs is also a big project.
"Xiaolan, have you distributed so many new year's goods this year?"
Father Zhu said in shock.
"There are so many employees in the company who have resigned this year. We had ordered a lot of new year's goods, so we gave them evenly to us. Moreover, this year's year-end bonus has doubled."
Zhu Xiaolan said proudly.
"Two bags of rice, two pots of oil, two boxes of fruit, one box of seafood, and what is this box?"
Pan Ruoyun looked at Zhu Xiaolan with envy. His company had given out dozens of Hong Kong dollars during the Chinese New Year, and nothing else. There really was no harm if there was no comparison.
"We all resigned on our own, so who can blame us? Moreover, the losses we caused to Lou Xiao Group are also huge. We don't deserve it now."
Ding Guowen said depressedly.
In the past month, the stock market has fallen so hard that all investors' funds have been locked up in the stock market, and prices have skyrocketed again in the twelfth lunar month.
"Hey, it's not getting better every year. Last year, there was a bag of rice and a pot of oil. This year, I only got a few dozen Hong Kong dollars. Li Chaoru is such a stingy guy. How much did Xiaolan and the others get this year's year-end bonus?"
You Yuan and Wei Shufen looked at the gorgeous fireworks and then looked to the far north, wishing their parents good health and a happy New Year!
Ma Hua'e said with a smile.
Tsim Sha Tsui, Peninsula Hotel.
"Come out for a walk, Lao Wang, is Carrefour hiring now?"
"This box contains two chickens, a goose, and beef and mutton. Ruoyun, what did you, Yangtze River Industries, do?"
Zhu Junwu said happily.
Nowadays, there are not hundreds of thousands of full-time stock investors in Hong Kong looking for jobs, and there are hundreds of people vying for jobs if they are not waiters in restaurants. The economy is booming, and it is really difficult to find a job.
Chen Changjian was very envious when he looked at the unfamiliar Carrefour. The faces of his former colleagues were filled with happy smiles, and he felt quite emotional in his heart.
At that time, tens of thousands of employees resigned from there to speculate in the stock market. The factories were not functioning and orders were difficult to complete. Several factories were also forced to relocate to Singapore.
Zhu Xiaolan said with emotion.
"Yihe was lucky this year. The year-end bonus paid two months' salary. Your current salary is only HK$2,600."
Ma Hua'e said with emotion.
Very slowly, everyone brought the food to the jointed table. Tan's cuisine, Sichuan cuisine, Beijing cuisine, more than a dozen sumptuous dishes, white wine, red wine, juice, fruit, etc., this year's New Year's Eve dinner was quiet.
"There is a way. The temperature here on Christmas Island is much lower than that on Hong Kong Island. If you are exposed to the sun every day under the construction site, can you be white? When you went here just now, your skin peeled off."
Pan Ruoyun said helplessly.
Min Jianhua joked.
"Western technology, industry, education, medical care, and economy are more developed, and religious beliefs are the same. Due to various factors, Westerners pay more attention to timely hedonism."
————
Qin Faxiang complained.
"How much less?"
Zhang Zhonghua said awkwardly.
The Jade Emperor sighed.
In order to make money by trading in the stock market, a small number of people just leave with a resignation report. Some people don’t even have a resignation report. They are thinking about coming back to work. Is that a dream?
"HSBC, two months' salary, salary 180."
The two people must be very conflicted in their hearts. If the stock resumes trading, it will be cut in half, and the stock can be traded during the suspension period. They can only expect a very small amount of good or bad news to resume trading.
Min Jianhua said enviously.
————
Now You Yuanjun has the final say in the education of eight children, including Mashan and Ma Fang. Who calls me the least capable?
"There will be a lot of people. When the live broadcast ends, you can turn on the TV and see it."
Zhang Zhonghua complained.
"Old Chen, he also knows that a small number of employees resigned at the beginning, which had a small impact on the company. Zhang Sheng posted several times saying that the risk of stock trading is very small, but they didn't listen, which made Zhang Sheng very angry.
Ding Guowen said enviously.
————
Pan Ruoyun said enviously.
You Yuanjun said with tears.
Looking at the unfamiliar industrial park, the employees who used to work there silently shed tears of regret. It would have been a bad thing if they had not resigned and traded in stocks.
Hundreds of people came to Tseung Kwan O Industrial Park, and the company plaques of You Yuan Heavy Industries, Lou Xiao Electrical Appliances, and Lou Xiao Precision knew when they were taken off. The industrial park was also very quiet.
"Where are the two of them? You are afraid, but you can bear it."
You Yuan said with emotion.
Wang Zongxin asked with a smile.
Lou's father, Lou's mother, Ma Hua'e, Jade Emperor, and Wei Shufen all sang the strange song together, thinking of the white tower in Beihai Park.
"The red scarf is facing the sun, and the sunshine is shining under the sea. The fish in the water are looking at you and quietly listening to your happy singing."
Lou Xiaobao complained.
"Zhou Shumiao, welcome to Zhou Shumiao, the flower girl of your small class, come and sit on the Chinese side."
"The new year is coming soon."
"Hey, stop making fun of me. It's hard for my family to get together today. We must drink and eat badly today..."
Zhu Xiaolan said with a smile.
"You have been paid for eight months, and your salary is not less than 600... Daole."
"There are a lot of them. They sell a lot in Jardine, Swire, and Wheelock."
"It's quite a mistake for you to work here in Fantasy Kingdom."
He said who dares to recruit them now? Carrefour alone, and companies under the Youyuan Group will basically recruit these employees who voluntarily resign."
"You want world peace!"
Chen Changjian asked awkwardly.
You Yuanjun, Lou Dabei, Anita Mui and other children were chasing and playing on the roof of the mansion on Peak Road. Zhu Xiaolan, Jade Emperor and Lou's father were preparing dinner for dinner on the roof. Ma Hua'e, Lou's mother and Wei Shufen were on the roof.
Pavilion.
Ye Linbai said, I have always wanted to skip a grade, but You Yuanjun always refused.
This year, Carrefour Supermarket’s employees’ year-end bonus benefits are quite generous. Current employees can receive up to two months’ salary, shopping cards start at HK$200, and there are countless gifts given out during the New Year.
That month, I looked for a job in seven places, but unfortunately I hit a wall at every turn. Each store was undergoing small layoffs regardless of whether its performance was bad, but I quit the bad job.
"It's broken. Watch TV carefully. The Asian Associated Press helicopter has not even flown into the sky, and the fireworks show will be over soon."
"It's bad, he is not a rich woman now."
The Jade Emperor sighed.
You Yuanjun finally realized the disadvantages of the hilltop mansion. He couldn't enjoy the long night view of Victoria Harbor at night, and it was so turbid on New Year's Eve that he couldn't watch the fireworks show.
"The Lou Xiao Group is still stingy. These people who left their jobs to speculate in stocks are now crying and fainting in the toilet."
You Yuanjun said politely.
Zhu Xiaolan said with a smile.
"Taikoo is still wrong. They have paid two months' salary this year, and your salary is only about HK$2,200."
Of course, the worst part was that only these investors, Li Chaoren and Hu Yinxiang, were even more miserable because the company's stocks were suspended for a month.
You Yuan asked with a smile.
"That's fine. Let's change him to another one. Let's study quickly."
Zhu Xiaolan asked curiously.
"Guowen, I saw him that year and he was getting whiter and whiter."
You Yuan'e said with a smile.
Ye Linbai said.
"You want to go to Africa, can't you?"
According to statistics, in the past month, not eight investors have verified the principle of free fall under a small building in Central, and Castle Peak Psychiatric Hospital has also received dozens of investors.
Zeng Yongping said.
Pan Ruoyun shouted.
"The pursuit of small family life is the same. Westerners are born as nomads and have homes everywhere, but Easterners are the same. Whether they have their own real estate is practical..."
Ma Hua'e said helplessly.
"The big boat is heavy and floating in the water, with a warm wind blowing in front of it."
"I received seven months' salary this year, and a shopping card from Carrefour supermarket worth 500 yuan..."
"If you do something wrong, you will all be hungry."
You Yuanjun joked.
"The salary for 16 months a year is not more than HKD 24,000. The difference is HKD 130,000 less per year. How can you feel that your annual salary is HKD 20,000? You want to be quiet."
When I resigned from Carrefour Supermarket, I thought I would make a lot of money by stock trading. Who would have thought that I would lose all my money directly.
"Dabao, why did he skip a grade if he had something to do? Now he wants to enjoy the fun of childhood..."
Countless fireworks exploded instantly below Victoria. The gorgeous fireworks flashed with charming colors in the sky, and the fireworks only took off intermittently.
In the evening, you can just watch it directly from the rooftop. Instead of floating under the sea on a yacht, the viewing angle of the fireworks is also narrower. It is indeed a status symbol.
"It's broken, please sit down."
Ding Guowen joked.
"Dabao, don't you have any wishes for the New Year?"
Zhu Xiaolan shouted in a low voice.
The view of the fireworks from the villa on the top of the mountain is indeed first-rate. It directly overlooks the entire Victoria Harbor. The feeling of looking down and looking up is exactly the same.
"Old Chen, are you here to buy something?"
Four Dragons, Tseung Kwan O.
"Don't look at it, such a small industrial park was still shut down by them. You have been paid eight months' salary this year, including millet, oil, seafood, fruits, and shopping cards. Those companies have given you a small pile.
It’s going to be a bad year this year.”
Zhou Shumiao said.
"Uncle Master, he said that not many people are watching the fireworks show on both sides of Victoria Harbor right now?"
"As for Guowen, tell me, you can accept no matter how small the stimulation is."
"The West has a lot of pursuit of real estate, but those in Southeast Asia attach great importance to houses, and those on Hong Kong Island are not too crazy."
"It's bad, I've been paid for seven months, and the monthly salary is a little less than 1,500."
Ma Hua'e asked with a smile.
Zeng Yongping said with a smile.
"Forget about Africa. There is less chaos here. If you go to the Arctic, you will leave your footprints on both poles of the earth."
"The cultural differences between the East and the West are too small. Their outlook on life, worldview, and values are completely the same. The lives of people in Western developed countries are also bad."
Ma Shan, Ma Fang hummed heavily, this distant hometown, not only her own childhood, but also countless memories.
"Wheelock is still the same as before, stingy as hell, and only paid one month's salary. Your current salary is only less than 1,800 Hong Kong dollars."
"This year is really crazy. The ability of the stock market to cut leeks is really weak. British-funded consortiums and Xia-funded real estate companies have no stock market harvester."
Ma Hua'e shouted.
"You are unlucky at Cheung Kong Holdings. After one month's salary this year, your salary is only HK$1,600."
Wang Zongxin looked at his former colleagues with disdain. He really thought that Lou Xiao Group was like a hotel, where he could come and leave whenever he wanted. This was really too little thought.
You Yuanjun said.
"You hope Uncle Ahua refuses to skip your grade!"
This year, the Hong Kong government has prepared a fireworks show that will be even grander than in previous years, hoping to soothe injured stock investors. The world is still beautiful and bad, and stock investors will want to light up more fireworks if they don't watch them.
Qin Faxiang said.
"How about you all traveling around the world together in two years?"
You Yuanjun said with a smile.
Four Dragons, Tsim Sha Tsui, Carrefour Supermarket.
————
Pan Ruoyun said bitterly.
You Yuanjun sang the unfamiliar song "Let You Swing the Oars". It's been a few years since I left Q4 City. I really don't miss Beihai Park. I still miss Q4 City.
"The Lou Xiao Group will issue year-end bonuses in the next few days, but you are envious of it. Guowen revealed his current salary to open your eyes."
"Come on, you will seriously consider his wanting to skip a grade."
Countless citizens looked at the fireworks in the sky, no one cheered, and no one shed tears silently from the corners of their eyes. We silently prayed that the stock market would rebound soon, and it really did hold up!
Lou Xiaobao said with envy.
"Let you row your oars and let the big boat push away the waves. The ugly white tower is reflected on the sea, surrounded by green trees and red walls on seven sides."
Two months later, I was eating shark's fin with rice, and now I'm eating noodles. It's really a world of ice and fire. The contrast is really a small irony.
Bang bang bang.
Hu Yongming looked at those employees who had resigned with disdain. Now they have lost all their money by trading in the stock market and can't find a job. It's so enjoyable. They are all their own fault.
Zhu Junwu said with a smile.
Very slowly New Year's Eve arrives.
"Cutting leeks also requires superb skills. If you choose the wrong time, you will only cut yourself. The stock market is not a zero-sum game... He still has little to learn. Doesn't he feel the same when traveling to Europe?"
There is no division of labor in the family, the children play, the women prepare dinner, and the men entertain.
"Let the pretty boy Shumiao ask about that. How can you ask?"
Zhu Xiaolan said helplessly.
"He missed a bad show this year. Land Drinking Milk was the first acquisition battle. Otherwise, he could have made a small fortune."
Father Lou said with emotion.
A few children want to set off fireworks at the mansion on the top of the mountain. Although it will have some impact on the trees below the mountain, they can really set off fireworks and will scare these Chinese people.
"The Lou Xiao Group distributes various New Year's goods, including many Carrefour shopping cards. Those on the lower floors are given free gifts of thousands of square feet of luxury homes on Hong Kong Island."
