The playground of the children's home was crowded with people, densely packed with orphans, officials and volunteers of the children's home. The reporters were holding long guns and short cannons, and their cameras were focused on Kang Jianfei, Zheng Yutong and Lin Yuhua, the director of the children's home, on the rostrum.
Three beauties in cheongsam came to the stage holding trays. Kang Jianfei, Li Jiacheng, and Lin Yuhua picked up the scissors in the tray and cut off the bright red silk in front of them.
St. Stephen's Children's Home was established in the 1930s, initially to take in war orphans, and later developed into the largest orphanage in Hong Kong.
Kang Jianfei is here today to cut the ribbon for the launching ceremony of the children's home project of St. Christopher's Children's Home.
The orphanage in front of us will be demolished next year and replaced by 24 children's homes across Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories. As for the land after the demolition of the orphanage, it will be sold to Li Ka-shing's Cheung Kong Holdings to build a high-end residential area.
Both Yuan Yuan and Li Jiacheng will make a lot of money from this transaction.
Five years later, the houses here were sold for more than 100,000 yuan per square meter, which once caused a shock in the market. The Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department immediately intervened, believing that the Anglican Church to which the children's home belonged had made huge profits from the land transaction, and the Anglican Church had to pay taxes alone.
More than 180 million yuan was replenished.
The Anglican Church is a church organization, and its deal with Li Jiacheng originally had nothing to do with Kang Jianfei. However, in order to promote the children's home project, the Anglican Church took the initiative to find Kang Jianfei, hoping to use Miss Oriental to help promote it, and even hired Kang Jianfei as the director of the children's home.
Honorary Chairman.
Hong Kong people believe in ghosts and gods, and they also believe in retribution for good deeds, so there are many wealthy businessmen in Hong Kong who used unscrupulous means to make a fortune when they were young, but turned into good people one by one in their later years. In Hong Kong, which is a bigger place, with a population of several million, there are many charity organizations alone
There are thousands of them, some are really doing charity, and some are trying to defraud charity and evade taxes.
Now that you have come to Hong Kong, you should do as the Romans do. Kang Jianfei has also established several charity foundations over the years. This time the Anglican Bishop personally came to invite him. It was a huge honor. It was even rarer than the Hong Kong governor inviting him to dinner. Kang Jianfei didn't have much.
I thought about it and agreed.
There are many believers in Christianity in Hong Kong, and the Anglican Communion has a lot of energy in society and can even influence Hong Kong's government affairs to a certain extent. The Anglican Communion not only runs orphanages in Hong Kong, but is also one of the main school-running groups in Hong Kong. It founded the China
There are nearly a hundred primary schools and dozens of kindergartens.
Although Kang Jianfei does not believe in religion, he is happy to have a good relationship with such a religious group, especially the title of "Honorary Chairman of the Children's Home", which is extremely respected.
After the ribbon-cutting, Kang Jianfei donated 1 million Hong Kong dollars to the children's home. Li Jiacheng also donated 1 million Hong Kong dollars, and then donated 100,000 Hong Kong dollars in the name of Miss Oriental Charity Fund.
Miss Hong Kong has an obligation. Their obligation is to promote the spirit of Hong Kong and enhance the charm of the city. Miss Hong Kong can represent Hong Kong in Miss World, but Miss Dong does not have this qualification. In order to compete with Miss Hong Kong in this aspect, Miss Dongfang has paid attention to it since its inception.
charitable.
This is why the Miss Oriental Charity Fund came about. Part of the fund's donations come from social donations. Every year, contestants will donate a little more or less after signing up. Its purpose is not only for social charity, but if any Miss Oriental's life is in dire straits -
—For example, car accidents, diseases, accidental disasters, etc., you can also apply for assistance from the foundation.
After the ribbon-cutting was completed, this year's top three Miss Dongfang made donations on behalf of the Dongjie Charitable Foundation, and then each delivered a speech to promote the children's home and social charity.
The name of the East Sister champion is Wu Cixin. She was not a popular beauty before the competition, but she became the champion by accident. The runner-up was Aishwarya, and the third runner-up was 17-year-old school girl Mai Jiaqi.
Anyway, there were many tricks today. Under the crosshairs of many reporters, the top eight Miss Dongfang brought various toys and candies to the orphans. Then they greeted the orphans, sang and danced for the orphans, and even helped in the kitchen themselves.
The children make delicious food.
The eight beauties obviously became the focus of today's event, while Kang Jianfei, Li Jiacheng, and Lin Yuhua were happy to be quiet, and the three of them met for tea.
Kang Jianfei brought Sister Dong to Dapu to help promote the children's home, and it wasn't all about throwing money and gaining fame. The orphanage here has not yet been demolished, but the future high-end residential area is already on the drawing board, and one of the single-family garden houses belongs to Kang Jianfei
, it will be worth 40 to 50 million when it is handed over in the future, but the "cost price" Kang Jianfei purchased was 8 million.
The Anglican Church has made a good plan. In the future, one-third of the high-end residences here will belong to the Anglican Church. In addition, Miss Dongfang can help promote the children's home, and it can absorb countless donations. It can be said that making money when moving, and demolishing the house
To make money, you have to make money again when building a house. It is just a small thing to give Kang Jianfei a single-family garden villa.
Kang Jianfei not only earned a good reputation, but also bought a garden villa for free. Miss Dongfang also expanded her influence in this promotion. The children's home plan is to build 24 orphanages across Hong Kong. Such a large-scale charity activity
, the influence will last for decades, and Miss Oriental’s participation in it is of great significance and is definitely an act that adds glory.
After the charity promotion activities were almost completed, Kang Jianfei and the other three also came out of the dean's office after drinking tea.
Li Jiacheng walked side by side with Kang Jianfei and said with a smile: "I heard that the Zheng family's ancient capital pedestrian street project in the capital was done by Mr. Kang?"
Kang Jianfei said modestly: "I'm just trying to talk the talk and come up with an idea."
Li Jiacheng praised: "This idea is very fast. Paris has the Champs Elysées, London has Oxford Street, and Berlin has Kurfürstendamm. These historic pedestrian streets are all world-famous. Mr. Kang made Nanluoguxiang
That area will be transformed into a pedestrian street and will definitely become a city card of Beijing. In comparison, my Oriental Plaza plan is much tackier."
Kang Jianfei laughed and said: "Who dares to say that the Oriental Plaza project, which covers an area of 100,000 square meters, costs 2 billion US dollars, and relocates more than 20 national and ministerial-level units, is tacky? My ancient capital pedestrian street project is incomparable."
Li Jiacheng was also laughing, but he smiled more reservedly. After laughing, he said: "If Mr. Kang has good projects in the mainland in the future, don't forget me. Let's make money together."
"Absolutely." Kang Jianfei agreed wholeheartedly.
In the Oriental Plaza project, Li Jiacheng was actually only responsible for providing the money, and Zhou Kaixuan was in charge of the process. Issues such as the relocation of sensitive units, the building height exceeding the Beijing limit, the demolition of ancient buildings, etc., any one of them would be enough to make a real estate investment
The project was suspended, and Zhou Kaixuan spent money to open a road.
It was the various difficulties encountered in this project that made Li Jiacheng feel that it was not easy to do real estate in the mainland. He wanted to cooperate with Kang Jianfei, and more importantly, he valued the Ye family's official power.
The two of them chatted all the way downstairs, and happened to bump into reporters squatting downstairs, and were instantly surrounded.
"Mr. Kang, you and Li Chaoren were talking and laughing just now. Were you talking about business cooperation?"
"Mr. Li, I heard that Yangtze River Industries will leave one-third of its real estate to the Anglican Church for land compensation. Do you have confidence in the profitability of this real estate project in Dapu?"
"Mr. Li, there are rumors that you invested US$2 billion to build a plaza in the capital. Are you not afraid that your assets will be confiscated by the Communist Party?"
"Mr. Kang, the box office performance of Hong Kong movies has generally been poor recently. "The Sixth Sense" is about to be released. Do you have confidence in this new movie?"
"..."
Kang Jianfei and Li Jiacheng fought their way out of the encirclement. Li Jiacheng ran away in his car, but Kang Jianfei went to join the Oriental ladies.
In order to highlight the closeness of the charity event, Kang Jianfei and the eight Oriental Misses came here on the TV station bus this time. Several beauty pageants and staff did not dare to leave after the charity promotion, so they all sat in the bus and waited for Kang Jianfei.
Before Kang Jianfei came over, there was an uninvited guest on the bus.
The staff stopped Ni Zhen who wanted to get on the bus and said politely: "Mr. Ni, we don't accept interviews on the bus."
Ni Zhen stuffed a few Hong Kong papers into the staff member's pocket and said with a smile: "Brother, I'm not here for an interview, I'm here to see Miss Asiavia."
"I'm not a hotel waiter. Mr. Ni, please take the tip." The staff returned the money to Ni Zhen. He would not let Ni Zhen get into the car for a few hundred yuan. If he lost his job, that would be called a crime.
A small loss leads to a big loss.
Ni Zhen was pushed out of the car depressedly. He has a character that he loves every person he sees. He wants to chase after a beautiful woman. Once he catches him, he soon loses the novelty and continues to look for the next beauty target. But once he can't catch her, Ni Zhen
My heart felt as if it had been scratched by a cat, and I felt uncomfortable all over.
After seeing Aishwarya's amazing beauty on TV, Ni Zhen made up his mind to date this Indian beauty. He first sent an invitation as the editor-in-chief of "yes!" magazine and wanted to do an exclusive interview with Aishwarya, but
The other party didn't even have a reply at all.
In the following days, Ni Zhen tried every means to get in touch with Aishwarya. But unfortunately, not only did he fail to meet Aishwarya, he didn't even get her phone number.
Hearing that Aishwarya was going to participate in a charity promotion at a children's home today, Ni Zhen rushed over without saying a word, but he still didn't get a chance to communicate alone.
This kind of encounter made Mr. Ni, who had no trouble picking up girls, very angry. He returned to his parking spot angrily, and within a few steps he saw Kang Jianfei, and his heart suddenly became even more angry.
However, Ni Zhen only dared to scold Kang Jianfei with his pen. When they met face to face, Ni Zhen took a detour dejectedly even though they were far away.
Kang Jianfei returned to the bus, pointed at Ni Zhen's back and asked, "What is that guy doing here?"
The staff member who had previously refused to accept Ni Zhen's tip said as if he was taking credit for it: "That crazy guy wanted to pester Miss Asiavia, but I scolded him away."
"Well done." Kang Jianfei praised.
The staff member was like a child being praised by an adult. He said with a smile: "This is what I should do. I will definitely give that kid a slap in the face next time I meet him."
Aishwarya sat in the front seat in the middle of the bus. The seat next to her was always empty, and everyone knew who it was for.
Kang Jianfei walked over and sat down, asking: "Are you used to doing this kind of charity promotion?"
Aishwarya felt the eyes of other people in the car and smiled: "For the welfare of orphans, this kind of activity is very meaningful."
Kang Jianfei said helplessly: "I'm not a reporter, so there's no need to talk official with me."
Aishwarya had to lower her head after being exposed. Her feelings for Kang Jianfei were very complicated. Ever since she was forced to sleep in Kang Jianfei's bed, she was both afraid and somewhat dependent on him.
Kang Jianfei said: "I'm going to meet some friends tonight, you can come with me."
…
Also at night, Mr. Ni came out of Lan Kwai Fong with a beautiful woman in his arms. Both of them were walking in a hurry, obviously having drunk a lot of wine.
When he walked to the parking space on the roadside, Ni Zhengang took out his key and opened the door. Suddenly he felt a hard object pressing against his waist, and a rough voice came from behind: "Take out the money, or I will kill you!"
Only then did Ni Zhen realize that the thing pressing against his lower back was probably a gun. He was so frightened that his feet went weak. He swallowed hard and said, "If you have anything to say, I'll give you the money."
The man behind him struck Ni Zhen's female companion on the back of the neck with his palm. The woman was half drunk and half awake, and fainted.
Ni Zhen saw that the horse he had just picked up was knocked unconscious, and his hands were shaking with fear. It took him a long time to take out his wallet and said: "I'll give you the cash. My watch is a Rolex, and I'll give it to you too. Don't do anything."
"
The man behind him roughly snatched Ni Zhen's money and watch, and then stabbed him in the buttocks.
Ni Zhen was so painful that he wanted to yell, but the man covered his mouth, put a knife on his neck and whispered: "Master Ni, someone asked me to give you a message. How many times did you curse in the magazine?
That's fine, he's too lazy to argue with you. If you dare to pester his woman again, then the headline in tomorrow's newspaper might be that you, Mr. Ni, were robbed and killed!"
"You...you are Kang Jian...oh no, you were sent by Mr. Kang?" Ni Zhen asked in horror.
The man said: "I don't know Mr. Kang, but you just need to understand."
Ni Zhen was about to say something more, but suddenly the back of his head hurt, and then he lost consciousness and fell beside the car.
When Ni Zhen woke up again, he was already in the hospital. There was a policeman sitting next to the bed who wanted to take a note for him. Ni Zhen wanted to tell the police that Kang Jianfei sent someone to plot against him, but when he said the words, his voice changed.
When he was robbed, he didn't even see clearly what the robber looked like.
There have been frequent murders in Hong Kong in the past two years. This year, there were even robbers who used AKs to fight with the police. It is normal for people to die. Ni Zhen did not want to be killed in a daze.
Ni Zhen even felt regretful in his heart. Why did he provoke Kang Jianfei when he had nothing to do? Isn't this asking for trouble?
The first thing Master Ni did after he was discharged from the hospital was to write a column in Ming Pao to praise Mr. Kang's charitable deeds. His flattery was so flattering that it would make readers blush.
Some people just don't need to be dealt with, and they jump around like clowns. If you really beat them up and it hurts, they will immediately become honest.
Kang Jianfei did not want to use violent means. He knew something about Ni Zhen's entanglement with Zhou Huimin and Qiu Shuzhen. After all, the two women were surrounded by personal bodyguards arranged by him.
Nothing can be done over and over again. This time Ni Zhen brazenly pestered Aishwarya, and Kang Jianfei couldn't help but teach him a lesson. r1152
