220, Engagement Ceremony Hong Kong Celebrities Gather
In a situation like Mother Gu's, it is actually very simple to prevent her from jumping off the building. You only need to pay her compensation and the money she owes, and she will not be in the mood to jump off the building.
Gu Chengxi naturally understood this truth, so when Chu Huan spoke up, Gu Chengxi immediately turned his attention to Chu Huan.
"Master Huan, Master Huan, I beg you, lend me some money. As long as you can lend me money, I can do anything you want!"
At this time, in order to save his mother, Gu Chengxi no longer cared about anything.
Therefore, responsible people will always have to bear more things for those who are irresponsible!
Mother Gu, who was standing on the rooftop in the distance and kept trying to jump down, but never dared to jump down, couldn't help but look at Chu Huan at this time.
Chu Huan looked at Gu Chengxi's pleading look and said with a smile: "It's okay to borrow money, but my money doesn't come from strong winds, so we should have a charter!"
Gu Chengxi looked at Chu Huan's smile, and the expression Chu Huan showed when he interviewed Chu Huan on the ferry suddenly appeared in his mind.
Yinya gritted her teeth secretly, and suddenly said: "Okay, as long as you are willing to lend me money, I promise you!"
Chu Huan: "..."
What's going on with this woman? She agreed before I even said anything?
"Why did you agree? Do you know what I want to say?" Chu Huan asked helplessly.
Gu Chengxi said anxiously: "No matter what you say, I promise you!"
Chu Huan felt that now was not the time to talk about these things. Since the other party had already promised him, there was nothing more to say.
In fact, Chu Huan has been thinking about it during this time. What Gu Chengxi said on the ferry before about setting up a newspaper still makes sense. Although the newspaper can't make much money, since he wants to increase his influence in Xiangjiang, what kind of things can he do?
There is a newspaper here, which is very necessary.
"Well, since you have agreed, then wait until I get engaged and come back to New York and come to the company to recruit me!"
"Company?" Gu Chengxi didn't expect that Chu Huan would be so playful and ask her to go to his company? Shouldn't this kind of thing happen at home or in a hotel?
However, Gu Chengxi, who was anxious to save his mother, didn't dwell too much on it. The company was the company, "Okay, I promise you!"
Chu Huan looked at the time. Since the matter had been resolved, it was time to go back with him. Mrs. Gu standing over there looked a bit annoying.
"I'll let your grandma calculate how much money she owes outside later and give me an accurate amount. You don't have to worry about the rest!"
After saying that, Chu Huan turned around and left.
Although Gu Chengxi is young, he is still capable, especially as he has the perseverance of a reporter, so he should have no problem managing a newspaper.
Besides, with the kindness of saving her mother, there should be no problem with this woman's loyalty in a short period of time.
So it would be a good idea to spend some money and find someone you can trust to manage the newspaper you are about to establish.
After thinking about all this, Chu Huan left here with Ma Jizu and others.
Seeing Chu Huan's leaving figure, Gu Chengxi quickly turned around and spoke to his mother.
"Mommy, you heard me. Master Huan promised to help you pay back the money. Come back quickly!"
Mother Gu asked tremblingly: "What did you promise Chu Huan just now?"
Promised to sleep with him... It was naturally impossible for Gu Chengxi to say this kind of thing, so he quickly said wittily: "It's nothing. Mr. Huan has always wanted to set up a newspaper and wanted me to do it.
Editor-in-chief, but I have never agreed, now I just agreed to his request!"
Mother Gu looked at Gu Chengxi suspiciously and asked, "Really?"
Gu Chengxi nodded seriously and said, "Really, come back quickly!"
With Gu Chengxi's 'lie', Gu's mother, who didn't have the courage to jump off the building, finally came back, and then there was a lot of excitement.
...
After a long time, Mother Gu, Gu Chengxi, Gu Xiaomei and their daughter returned to their home. Looking at the paint splashed at the door of their home, Gu Chengxi thought about her future and felt sad.
But in order not to irritate her mother any more, Gu Chengxi could only force a smile and follow her into the house.
"Mommy, how much money do you owe outside?"
Gu Chengxi wanted to know an exact number so that he could determine how long he would stay with Chu Huan and be his underground lover.
...
March 15, 1973!
Peninsula Hotel, banquet hall!
Chu Huan was wearing a sexy white suit, her hair was combed meticulously, and she was extremely handsome. Next to her, Cao Yunshang was wearing a bare-shouldered red floor-length skirt and a diamond crown that shone brightly under the light. She was also beautiful.
A complete mess.
"Brother, you look so handsome today!"
Zhong Xiaoqing also wore a princess dress today, swaying beside Chu Huan.
Chu Huan smiled and asked, "Isn't that brother handsome before?"
Zhong Xiaoqing blinked her big eyes and said: "I was handsome before, but today I am the most handsome!"
"Qingqing, only your brother is handsome, isn't your sister beautiful?" Cao Yunshang said with a smile.
"Mom said, you can no longer call me sister, you should call me sister-in-law!" Zhong Xiaoqing said cutely.
Cao Yunshang's face turned red.
Chu Duanqing came over at this time, held Zhong Xiaoqing's hand, and said: "Okay, your brother and sister-in-law will be very busy today, don't disturb them!"
"All right!"
Zhong Xiaoqing's sermons are as big as those of a kid.
"There are guests over there, you two should go over and say hello!"
Chu Duanqing looked at Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang with a look of relief.
The two nodded. Today will be very busy. Although neither of them likes such an occasion very much, they really can't do whatever they want at this time. They are in this circle and have no ability to break it.
Before there are rules, you can only abide by the rules in this circle.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! On TV, the heroine does not like such an occasion, and the scene where the hero takes her away can only appear on TV. If in reality
If anyone dares to do this.
People will laugh to death.
"Uncle Jian, Uncle Tang!"
Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang took the lead to greet Jian Yueqiang and Tang Jiqian.
The two of them arrived very early.
Jian Yueqiang and Tang Jiqian both had smiles on their faces at this time. Jian Yueqiang even laughed loudly and said: "A talented man and a beautiful woman, a match made in heaven. Once you are engaged, you are an adult. Ah Huan, you should do less of those inconspicuous things in the past."
!”
Cao Yunshang pursed his lips and chuckled, while Chu Huan looked embarrassed.
"Uncle Jian, Uncle Tang, I have already apologized to you two properly before. Isn't it good to consider that matter in the past?"
The acquisition of Jiahu Textile has come to an end, and Chu Huan also found some time to have a special meeting with Jian Yueqiang, Tang Jiqian and others.
Tang Jiqian joked: "It's so easy to get over it. Don't you know how much we were worried about you at the time?"
What Chu Huan could say was to apologize again.
"Okay, you don't have to entertain the rest of us. There will be a lot of guests here today, and some of them will be busy for you!"
Jian Yueqiang waved his hand and preached.
Tang Jiqian also said: "Ah Huan, we will be traveling together from now on. When you finish your work during this period, come over and let's have a good chat about the future!"
Chu Huan smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle Tang!"
Jian Yueqiang and Tang Jiqian turned around and left to find their old friends.
"Ah Huan, Yun Shang, you two come over here!"
Cao Wenjin's voice came from the side.
Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang walked over quickly.
Cao Wenjin introduced the man in front of them with the Chinese character face, "This is your Uncle Dong!"
Dong Haoyun of OOCL is one of the four new generation shipping kings in Hong Kong.
Chu Huan didn't expect that he would also come.
However, Chu Huan didn't think much about it and called Cao Yunshang together: "Hello, Uncle Dong!"
Dong Haoyun entered the shipping industry in the 1930s, and was the first to enter the shipping industry among the four major shipping kings today.
"Haha, seeing you young people, we really can't bear to accept our old age!" Dong Haoyun said with a laugh.
Chu Huan didn't believe Dong Haoyun said that he was old. Among the four major shipping kings, Dong Haoyun was the most competitive person.
When the media called Bao Yugang the world's shipping king, Dong Haoyun publicly expressed his disapproval, saying that most of Bao Yugang's cargo ships were cooperated with HSBC Bank and could not be regarded as his personal ships, so Bao Yugang could not be called one of the world's shipping kings.
What is the world's shipping king?
The whole world knows that when the shipping industry entered a cold winter, Dong Haoyun still held a ceremony to launch the ship into the sea with great fanfare, vowing to surpass Bao Yugang and become the real world shipping king.
How could such a person admit that he is inferior to young people?
"Uncle Dong is so humble. Your full container ship business is the first of its kind in Hong Kong. We, the younger generation, should ask you for more advice!"
Dong Haoyun's Orient Overseas was the first pioneer in Hong Kong to enter the container era. In 1969, it even started an all-container business, converting seven old cargo ships into container ships and sailing to the West Coast of North America once a week!
This matter has always been Dong Haoyun's proud work. Now that Chu Huan mentioned it, he also said with great joy: "I didn't expect you, Ah Huan, to know so much about the shipping industry!"
Chu Huan smiled and said: "I think even if you don't understand, you can definitely know these things!"
This indirectly explains Dong Haoyun's achievements.
Just when Chu Huan and Dong Haoyun were complimenting each other, Cao Yunzu came over and whispered to Cao Wenjin: "Mr. Bao is here!"
Mr. Bao is naturally Bao Yugang, another shipping king in Xiangjiang.
Although Cao Wenjin is also one of the shipping kings and has a competitive relationship with these people, Cao Wenjin has always been low-key and rarely competes with his peers. He just focuses on the development of his own company, so he and Xiangjiang's
The relationship between several shipping kings has always been very good.
When Dong Haoyun heard that Bao Yu had just arrived, he smiled and said, "I'm going to say hello to some old friends first, and we'll talk later!"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Cao Wenjin looked at Dong Haoyun's appearance, smiled and said nothing.
Bao Yugang came over at this time under the guidance of Cao Yunzu.
Looking at the now nominally richest man in Xiangjiang, Chu Huan also smiled.
Why do you say nominal? Because in the minds of the people of Xiangjiang at this time, the real richest man should be Huo Tsar. However, the relationship between Huo Tsar and Gui Lao is not very good, and business has been targeted, so he is very low-key now, but
Being low-key doesn't mean you have no strength.
On the contrary, it is precisely because he is so powerful that he needs to be low-key.
"Brother Bao, you're fine!" Cao Wenjin said to Bao Yugang with a smile.
Among the four great shipping kings, Cao Wenjin is the youngest!
Bao Yugang laughed loudly and said: "It's okay, it's okay. I've often heard the name of Brother Cao, your son-in-law riding a dragon. Today is such a day worth celebrating. I mean I'm going to come over and feel happy!"
Bao Yugang entered the shipping industry when he was in business for 55 years. At that time, Bao Yugang invested US$700,000 to purchase a 27-year-old coal-burning ship with a load capacity of 8,700 tons. He later named the coal-burning ship
As the "Jin'an", by the end of 1956, through mortgage loans, Bao Yugang's Global Shipping already had 7 ships.
At that time, the bank responsible for the loan to Bao Yugang was HSBC, and the person responsible for this matter was Sundas. By 1962, Sundas had become the boss of HSBC, but Sundas had resigned last year and took over.
The first is Sha Ya, and after Sha Ya is Shen Bi.
"Young people have a formidable future, and the operation of acquiring Jiahu Textile is even more amazing!"
Bao Yugang talked to Chu Huan with a smile on his face.
Chu Huan continued to preach modestly: "Uncle Bao is so complimentary. What my nephew has done is far from what you have achieved, Uncle Bao. Uncle Cao has always told me before that if it weren't for Bao
Uncle, you broke Xiangjiang Bank’s rule not to lend money to shipping companies, and now it’s impossible for us to achieve what we have now.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The smile on Bao Yugang's face became brighter and brighter. This matter has always been the thing that Bao Yugang is most proud of.
"Brother Cao, I regret it now. Why did your Cao family discover such an outstanding young man first? I have four daughters!"
Bao Yugang had no children in his life and only had four daughters. The eldest daughter married the Austrian lawyer Helmut Sockman in 1969, who was later Su Haiwen.
This year his second daughter will also marry Wu Guangzheng, a classmate from Xiangjiang whom he met in New York. Wu Guangzheng later inherited most of Bao Yugang's property.
However, after Wu Guangzheng returned to Hong Kong this year, he did not join Bao Yugang's Global Shipping Company immediately. Instead, he first went to work for Chase Bank of North America in Hong Kong and would not join Global Shipping until 1975.
The future husband of the third daughter was Japanese architect Shinichiro Watari, and the two later settled in New York.
The fourth daughter will marry Zheng Weijian, a Chinese-American cancer expert in the future, and will also settle in North America!
Cao Wenjin laughed and said: "Brother, you can't envy this kind of thing!"
The two joked about it, and Bao Yugang also went to chat with his friends, while Chu Huan continued to accompany Cao Wenjin to entertain the guests.
"Uncle, why haven't you seen Uncle Guo?"
Chu Huan is talking about Guo Henian!
Cao Wenjin smiled and said: "He, the company has something to do, so he called me yesterday and will come over later today!"
Chu Huan nodded.
Guests were coming in one after another, and soon Zhao Congyan, the last of the four major shipping kings in Hong Kong, accompanied by Zhao Shizeng, also arrived!
In a corner of the reception, Bao Tianming, Chen Haichao, Liu Pingkui, and Zhu Xiaozhao also came. They watched from a distance as Chu Huan chatted and laughed with those big shots who usually could only be seen on TV or in newspapers.
He looks a little complicated.
"What? Are you envious?"
Bao Tianming was the first to react.
Liu Pingkui was the first to answer: "This is not envy, but happiness. The more powerful Brother Huan is, the happier we will be."
Chen Haichao said nothing, but nodded seriously.
Zhu Xiaozhao's eyes fell more on Cao Yunshang who was next to Chu Huan. Cao Yunshang was so dazzling tonight that none of the women in the entire dance could match her elegance.
Maybe this is Brother Huan’s perfect match for his life!
"But I found that Brother Huan is really sharp. On such an occasion, he not only called us here, but also Li Xiaolong, Hong Jinbao, Cheng Long and others. Look at how unnatural they are sitting there.
.”
Liu Pingkui smiled and preached to Bao Tianming and others.
It is true that Li Xiaolong is now the most popular movie star in Hong Kong, and it is true that thousands of fans cheer for him when he goes out. But on an occasion like today, even if he has reached the level of Li Xiaolong, among the people present, he can only be a small one.
transparent.
Li Xiaolong is like this, not to mention Hong Jinbao, Cheng Long and others.
So what Liu Pingkui said is not false at all. They were sitting on the other side, and they were indeed a little uncomfortable. Li Xiaolong was better, after all, he was very famous, and Hong Jinbao, Cheng Long and others were a little arrogant and charming.
At this time, Hong Jinbao felt extremely lucky that he had not chosen to leave the black and white image in the first place. It turned out that what Chu Huan did was all fake.
Now looking at Chu Huan chatting and joking with those first-class rich people in Xiangjiang, and then thinking that Chu Huan actually invited herself to such an occasion, it would be a lie to say that I am not excited.
"Ah Huan, I didn't expect that an amateur would deceive us professionals!"
Li Xiaolong said angrily, thinking that he had told him not to rush to invest in his own movie because of Chu Huan's affairs, but now he realized that Chu Huan was just acting at that time.
"After the engagement ceremony is over, I have to let him apologize to me for everything I say!"
Listening to Li Xiaolong's complaints, Hong Jinbao and Cheng Long looked at each other and smiled. They did not have Li Xiaolong's mentality at this time and were still nervous.
On the other side, Chu Huan was chatting with Cao Wenjin and Guo Henian who had just arrived. Cao Yunzu came over again and said with a complicated look: "Daddy, Qi Dezun from Hutchison International is here!"
Chu Huan and others looked at each other. Today's engagement ceremony between Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang was attended by many business celebrities from Xiangjiang, but they were all Chinese businessmen. However, Qi Dezun did not expect that Qi Dezun would come.
Cao Wenjin whispered: "I handed the invitation to Qi Dezun, but I didn't expect that he actually came in person."
Guo Henian smiled and said: "It seems that Ah Huan left a deep enough impression on him last time!"
Everyone at the scene knew that Guo Henian was talking about the previous Niu War.
At this time Qi Dezun came over. Although the current stock market crash caused Qi Dezun heavy losses, he was still smiling at this time.
"Congratulations, congratulations, I'm not late!"
Chu Huan said with a smile: "The senior class was joking, why is it too late? It's just right!"
Qi Dezun laughed and said: "Ah Huan, this time you are famous in Xiangjiang!"
"If Taipan hadn't kept his promise, I wouldn't have won so easily!" Chu Huan continued modestly.
Qi Dezun smiled and said: "When you made that request, Ah Huan, I knew you would definitely succeed. So I didn't believe the news that appeared some time ago. But now it turns out that it is just as I guessed.
That way.”
Jian Yueqiang, Tang Jiqian, and Bao Yugang, who were chatting not far away, saw Chu Huan chatting and laughing with Qi Dezun, and all three of them had puzzled expressions on their faces.
"When did Ah Huan become so familiar with Qi Dezun?" Jian Yueqiang said with some surprise.
Tang Jiqian smiled and said: "You don't even know, how can we know!"
Something suddenly came to Bao Yugang's mind, and he said in shock: "You two, do you still remember the cattle war last year?"
Jian Yueqiang and Tang Jiqian nodded at the same time. How could they not remember the most exciting business war in Hong Kong last year?
"When I was chatting with Sha Ya a few days ago, I heard Sha Ya say that after the end of the cattle purchase war, Qi Dezun suddenly became one of the major shareholders of Land Land, and the shares he held had exceeded his holdings in the dairy company.
190,000 shares held!”
Jian Yueqiang and Tang Jiqian showed a hint of surprise.
"You mean that Qi Dezun has already secretly purchased the shares of the milk company?" Tang Jiqian couldn't help but ask.
Jian Yueqiang said: "This is impossible. According to Qi Dezun's character, if he holds so many shares in the dairy company, Qi Dezun must have started to fight back after Land Land launched the acquisition!"
Bao Yugang also said: "Yes, Sha Ya and I think so too. The extra 190,000 shares in Qi Dezun's hands should have been acquired after the cattle buying war!"
Tang Jiqian recalled the situation at that time and said: "This is impossible. There were not such a large number of stock transactions in the stock market at that time."
Bao Yugang said: "I also thought at that time that the shares of the milk company in Qi Dezun's hands could only be bought by individuals!"
Jian Yueqiang looked at Bao Yugang in disbelief and asked, "You mean, those 190,000 shares were bought by Qi Dezun from Chu Huan?"
Tang Jiqian immediately shook his head and said: "This is impossible. We can't just speculate because Qi Dezun is here today. Maybe A Huan and Qi Dezun have some cooperation that we don't know about!"
In the end, Tang Jiqian couldn't help but said: "If that's the case, A Huan is too evil, right?"
Jian Yueqiang laughed and said, "Isn't Ah Huan's behavior during this time considered a monster?"
Bao Yugang said: "It doesn't matter whether he is a real evildoer or not. Your nephew is destined to be famous in Xiangjiang today!"
Jian Yueqiang and Tang Jiqian also looked at each other and smiled. Yes, regardless of whether Chu Huan did this or not, in the current gloom and gloom in Hong Kong, Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang's engagement ceremony was able to attract so many celebrities from Hong Kong.
It's not just that these people came because of Cao Wenjin's face, many of them also came because of Chu Huan.
Qi Dezun continued to chat with Chu Huan for a few words, and then went to find his friends.
Only then did Guo Henian speak out: "I'm afraid we won't be able to keep the matter of the Niu War a secret!"
Chu Huan said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter. I didn't want Qi Dezun to tell this matter out at that time, so that Chu Tianxiao wouldn't know about it. Now that Chu Tianxiao's trouble has been solved, other people will know about it.
"
After finishing speaking, Chu Huan and several others laughed.
However, this smile did not last long.
Because the person who walked in next made Chu Huan have an unhappy expression on his face.
Chu Duanjing walked in gorgeously dressed.
"This is Yunshang, she's so beautiful. She's so talented and pretty like our Ah Huan!"
Chu Duanjing walked over with a smile on her face and said with a nonchalant smile.
Everyone knew about the relationship between Chu Huan and other members of the Chu family. When Cao Wenjin and others saw this, they left without saying anything. How to deal with the Chu family still depends on Chu Huan's own choice.
As Chu Huan's fiancée, Cao Yunshang naturally had no choice but to leave, and Chu Duanqing who was on the side also came with Zhong Xiaoqing at this time.
"Qingqing, why don't you call me when you see your aunt?" Chu Duanjing said to Zhong Xiaoqing affectionately.
Zhong Xiaoqing hid behind Chu Huan and timidly called out: "Auntie!"
Chu Huan asked calmly: "What are you doing here?"
Chu Duanjing seemed not to notice Chu Huan's indifference, and still said with a smile: "Today, Ah Huan, you are holding an engagement ceremony. Of course, I, the aunt, will be here. We can't let others talk about our Chu family."
There is no one!"
When Chu Huan was about to say something else, Chu Duanqing gently tugged on Chu Huan's clothes. Chu Huan also understood that in an occasion like today, no matter what the other person's intentions were, he could not get angry.
Otherwise, he and the Cao family will become a joke.
"Sister-in-law, please help me take care of this guest!"
After Chu Huan finished speaking indifferently, he took Cao Yunshang to greet other guests.
"Are you okay?" Cao Yunshang asked Chu Huan with concern.
Chu Huan shook his head and said, "I have nothing to do. It should be Chu Duanjing who does."
Cao Yunshang was stunned for a moment, and then understood what Chu Huan meant, "So she also lost a lot?"
Chu Huan nodded and said: "It should be like this."
During the stock market crash, it is not easy to survive alone.
While Chu Huan was chatting with Cao Yunshang, Bao Tianming and others came over and asked with concerned faces: "Brother Huan, are you okay?"
Chu Huan smiled and said: "Don't worry, nothing will happen!"
When the four of them heard what Chu Huan said, although they were still worried, they couldn't ask any more questions.
"I definitely don't have time to say anything more to you today. After I come back from North America in a few days, we can have a nice gathering again!"
Chu Huan preached to them.
Bao Tianming said: "Okay, you don't have to worry about us!"
While Chu Huan was chatting with Bao Tianming and others, Chu Duanjing was already telling Chu Duanqing sadly: "Little sister, you have to help me no matter what you say this time!"
