Su Yehao tasted the Louis Roederer champagne in the glass. It had a smooth taste and rich fragrance.
He was not the host today, but it was rare for people to meet him in public. They came to say hello one after another. People came and went around him, making it extremely lively.
The Tang family has been operating in the upper-class circles of Hong Kong City for many years. Many people know his mother or grandfather. Some people regard themselves as elders and have a friendly attitude.
Compared with the super rich in other port cities, Su Yehao does lack a majestic temperament.
It can be said that among the billionaires in Hong Kong City, he seems to be the easiest to get along with. After all, he looks like a young boy in his twenties, and he has mainly developed abroad, engaged in high technology and financial investment.
business.
Like other business tycoons who have been famous for a long time, they all braved the wind and waves all the way and left a great reputation. It is inevitable that they will look very difficult to deal with.
On the other hand, Su Yehao made so much money without paying attention.
His rise was so short and so smooth that before the outside world had time to react, he had already become one of the richest people in Hong Kong.
Look at the entire port city.
It seems that the only businessman who can rival Su Yehao in terms of net worth is Lao Li.
In the early years, British capital retreated and their assets in Hong Kong were sold off like crazy. Many assets, including Ho Chi Minh City's Whampoa, were bought by Lao Li at a low price. Now, he has made a fortune, even in the face of the property market bubble and financial crisis.
The crisis did not have much impact, and the stock price rebounded very quickly.
Maybe it's for tax avoidance reasons, or maybe it's because you want to keep your wealth private.
In short, as far as Su Yehao knows, Lao Li's family has transferred many assets to multiple family foundations, dispersed them to operate independently, and continued to invest abroad.
It has to be said that Su Yehao believes that he still has a lot to learn in the face of these cunning old foxes.
At this moment.
A fat middle-aged man wearing glasses, with two strands of red hair and a floral shirt came over.
When he saw Su Yehao, he immediately said in a familiar voice:
"Hey? Prince Hao, I happen to want to talk to you about something recently. How about you lend me thirty or forty million US dollars to help you turn around? I'll pay you double this time next year."
Su Yehao is admiring Miss Vera's new work.
In front of him is a giant oil painting, three meters long and two meters wide, with clouds dyed pink and a blue sky painted on it.
I can't say what's good about it specifically, and the content is very simple, but the color combination makes it look particularly comfortable, giving it a girlish dreamy feel. There are three works of the same type nearby, all named "Evening Sky by the Sea", which makes up the composition.
As a series, the picture frame is also very large.
I was just about to chat with Vera, ask about the price, buy them all, and take them home for decoration.
Hearing the other party's boastful talk of thirty or forty million US dollars, he turned his head to read it and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, are you..."
"you do not know me?"
The slightly fat middle-aged man was instantly embarrassed and introduced himself: "I own the Star North Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui, Lin Jiushan."
Su Yehao thought for a moment, but still had no idea.
Ever since he became famous, there have been many people who wanted to borrow money from him. He had already experienced how to refuse, so he immediately told him:
"Oh, the bank loan interest rate is quite cost-effective now. It's twice as affordable as one year. I'm afraid of trouble. I don't borrow from people I don't know, I don't borrow from people I don't understand, and I don't borrow money I'm not sure I can get back. It's so good
You should leave the opportunity to make money to others."
After saying that, he smiled perfunctorily.
Turn away and leave without giving the other person a chance to speak again.
The so-called experience of rejection refers to having a firm and ruthless attitude, saying no to anyone, and being most afraid of being thin-skinned.
Su Yehao didn't know this person at all, so it was strange that he agreed.
What's more, the other party dared to say that it was doubled in a year, which was obviously a bit abnormal. For someone with assets and a good reputation like him, banks usually rush to lend him money. How could he open up a conversation with a stranger?
Borrow money.
This Lin Jiushan wanted to follow, but was stopped by Su Yehao's bodyguard. Others around him looked curiously, and when they realized it was this weirdo, they were immediately indifferent and mocking.
Nangong Tian walked around and took the opportunity to meet several colleagues in the entertainment industry. They were all film company bosses or directors.
When she saw the scene just now, she asked Su Yehao:
"What does Lan Zai Lin want to do with you? Do you know him?"
"I don't know. He asked me to borrow money out of nowhere, asking for tens of millions of dollars. Do you know this guy? Bad Lin?"
Su Yehao was thoughtful.
It is said that only by giving the wrong name, not by the wrong nickname, and with the word "bad boy", you can already imagine what kind of person the other person is, so no wonder he looks so unreliable.
When they talked about gossip, Nangong Tian became excited instantly, her eyes lit up and she said:
"Do you remember the news last week? A man was stripped naked and tied to a telephone pole. It wasn't him."
"Rumors say that this guy was obsessed with a married woman and took him to Malaysia to be slaughtered as a pig. He lost more than 400 million playing cards. His father was considered rich in Tsim Sha Tsui back then. He probably knew what kind of thing this guy was.
, so he handed over his assets to others to take care of before his death, and only gave him 100,000 yuan a month. Now he is being forced to pay off his debts."
"Also, Brother Hao, in order to get the inheritance as soon as possible a few days ago, he even threatened to jump into the river and found a large number of reporters, which caused a stir. Don't you know?"
The word "baa" sounded very cute. Su Yehao shook his head and said: "I rarely read the entertainment section. There are a lot of messy news every day. Even if I read it, I forget it in my mind."
…
Find Vera and talk to her about buying paintings.
Knowing that each painting of "Evening Sky by the Sea" cost HK$280,000, Su Yehao quickly picked two of his favorites.
Given Ms. Vera's reputation, the price seems a bit expensive, but it can be seen that her gallery is trying to package and promote her. If the price is set low, it will affect future development.
It was agreed that the two oil paintings would be delivered to the door after the exhibition was over. The gallery manager did not forget to take this opportunity to thank Su Yehao by knocking on his glass of wine, and at the same time, he also made Miss Vera famous, thereby proving that there was indeed a market for her works.
It is always difficult for a newcomer to start, so Zhao Yimeng and Jiang Yu also took action respectively and bought their favorite oil paintings to show their support.
Vera was so famous in school that many old classmates from Donghuang Rose Middle School came here today. Not to mention their buck-toothed handsomeness and bamboo poles, even Huang Zewen rarely showed up.
This is the first time Su Yehao has seen him since he went to England for a study trip two years ago.
When the two of them made eye contact, I didn't know what Mr. Huang was thinking. His eyes were full of melancholy, loss and envy, and he actually chose to lower his head and run away.
Last year, the Huang family suffered heavy losses in the stock market, and the project they contracted in Southeast Asia was unable to collect the balance due to the bankruptcy of the developer. The capital chain collapsed and their vitality was severely damaged.
It took just over two years to graduate.
The vast majority of alumni of the same class are still in the stage of studying.
However, Su Yehao, who had no martial virtues, left everyone far behind. He was so dazzling that he shone brightly at the height of the sun...
