When Gu Chengxi came to the newspaper office this morning, Lin Ting did not notice why Gu Chengxi arrived at the newspaper office after ten o'clock. Instead, she frantically told Gu Chengxi something.
At this time, Gu Chengxi's face had long lost the sadness of yesterday. Her fair skin was full of moisture, her eyes were bright, and she asked with a smile: "What are you crazy about?"
Seeing Gu Chengxi like this, Lin Ting noticed the difference in Gu Chengxi and asked curiously: "Editor-in-Chief, you are different today than before!"
Gu Chengxi's face suddenly turned red and asked: "What's wrong?"
Lin Ting shook her head and said doubtfully: "I don't know, but I just feel like you are different today than before. Even your walking posture is different from before!"
After hearing this, Gu Chengxi's face became even more rosy, almost dripping with water, and she quickly changed the subject and said, "What's so crazy?"
Only then did Lin Ting remember what she wanted to tell Gu Chengxi.
"Everyone in Hong Kong is crazy, and stock investors are even crazier." Lin Ting said exaggeratedly: "Just today, we just got the news that the stock prices of Sun Hung Kai, New World, and Hopewell Properties have all doubled.
Even Hutchison International’s share price rose by 70%!”
Gu Chengxi smiled and said: "Didn't I think of this a long time ago? And according to their stock price after the stock market crash, even if it has doubled, it is still far away from their peak stock price!"
Lin Ting saw that Gu Chengxi didn't care very much, but she couldn't help but said: "That's not the case. Think about it, what is the situation in Xiangjiang's stock market now? They are all falling, except for the stock prices of these companies.
Going against the wind, only a few of their stocks have trading volume.
I heard from economic experts today that the stock prices of several of their companies may have developed the fastest during the stock market crash.
All this is because of the Huaye City project. This project really made Chu Huan and the others make crazy money.
Some people now say that Chu Huan had already invested in these four companies before, and they don’t know what he was thinking, but he is so smart!"
Gu Chengxi immediately reminded: "Don't talk nonsense. Such statements will bring trouble to Chu Huan. We can't talk nonsense!"
Lin Ting looked at Gu Chengxi doubtfully again and asked: "Editor-in-Chief, why did you go out of your way to speak for Chu Huan today? Didn't you always say that he is a bad person in the past?"
Although their newspaper could often get exclusive interviews with Chu Huan or black and white video artists, Lin Ting could always secretly discover that her editor-in-chief would secretly say bad things about Chu Huan whenever she had nothing to do.
Now that I am helping Gu Chengxi speak ill of Chu Huan, why is Gu Chengxi acting out of character?
Now he is worse, but I like it so much... Seeing Lin Ting's expression, Gu Chengxi's face turned red again and said: "Okay, go to work quickly!"
Lin Ting nodded doubtfully and said, "I know!"
It was only when Lin Ting turned around and wanted to leave that she remembered another thing: "By the way, editor-in-chief, my aunt just called and asked why you didn't go back last night. Is the newspaper office too busy?"
Gu Chengxi lowered his head, pretending to be looking at the documents on the table, and said: "I understand, you can get out!"
After Lin Ting left Gu Chengxi's office, Gu Chengxi couldn't help but raise her head, and kept fanning both sides of her face with her hands, trying to lower her body temperature.
Then he reluctantly picked up the phone and dialed his home phone number.
Within a few seconds, Gu's mother answered the phone. When she heard Gu Chengxi's voice, Gu's mother quickly asked why Gu Chengxi didn't come back last night!
Gu Chengxi could only explain that her company was busy and she stayed at the company last night!
Mother Gu didn't say anything and hung up the phone.
Gu Xiaomei, who happened to be resting at home, saw her mother hang up the phone and asked quickly: "Mommy, Mommy, what did my sister say?"
Gu's mother said with a mixed look but also disappointment: "Your sister started lying to me. Just now her secretary told me that she went home last night, but now she says that she stayed at the company last night."
Gu Xiaomei was not disappointed at all. Instead, she wanted to say excitedly: "How's it going? I'll just say that Sister A is dating!"
Mother Gu sat on the sofa and said worriedly: "It's nothing if your sister is dating, I'm just worried that the person she's dating is Chu Huan!"
Before, Mother Gu and Xiaomei Gu had discussed what they thought was the relationship between Gu Chengxi and Chu Huan.
At this time, Gu Xiaomei said with confidence: "Don't worry, my sister is definitely not dating Chu Huan!"
"You know what?" Gu's mother glanced at Gu Xiaomei dissatisfied.
Gu Xiaomei said firmly: "Yes, you think such a big thing happened yesterday. Chu must have discussed the specific details of Huaye City with those rich people, and also had a party to celebrate with those people. How is it possible?
I have time to meet my sister, so we all thought wrong before, sister is not with Chu Huan!"
Hearing what Gu Xiaomei said, Gu's mother finally breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That would be great. After all, Chu Huan is engaged. Now Xiangjiang has changed the marriage system. If she is with Chu Huan, then
He must be nameless and insignificant!"
Gu Xiaomei nodded.
Gu Chengxi didn't know that because he was panicked and didn't understand what Lin Ting said, the call he gave to his mother gave them two different ideas.
But at this time, Gu Chengxi definitely didn't have time to think about this.
...
Chu Huan also arrived at the company after ten o'clock. After Xu Jian saw Chu Huan, he preached to Chu Huan.
"Boss, Mr. Lu and Mr. Bao from Huhua Real Estate just arrived. They said that they are ready to contact the Hong Kong government today to carry out the preliminary mountain-moving and reclamation project."
Since Bao Tianming wants to participate in this project of Huaye City, he naturally needs a legitimate identity.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So now Bao Tianming is the deputy general manager of Huhua Real Estate and the deputy general manager of Tianhai Real Estate.
At the same time, Guo Bingxiang, Zheng Jiachun, Luo Xiaoming, and Lewis all serve as deputy general managers of Tianhai Real Estate.
Chu Huan nodded and said: "Tell them that since the matter has been handed over to them, they can proceed according to the plan. There is no need to report everything in the future!"
Xu Yi nodded and said: "I know!"
Then Xu Yi took out his notepad and said: "Also, the Textile Association called before and said that the Textile Association will have an event in two days and wants to invite you, boss, to participate.
In addition, the Real Estate Association also called and said that there are events that require your attendance, boss.
Also, the Lands Department of the Hong Kong Government also called and said that I have a banquet tonight to invite you to..."
There were more than a dozen various invitations. After Xu Yi finished speaking, he sighed in his heart. Before the Huaye City project, these chambers of commerce and associations had not been so active!
Chu Huan pondered for a moment and then said: "Collect these invitations and remember to remind me when the time comes!"
Although Chu Huan didn't care much about these invitations, now that he is in this position, he still has to show up when it's time to show up.
Being unique is not a compliment in the mall!
Xu Yi nodded and said: "I know!"
"By the way, Mr. Hu from Hopewell Real Estate also called me just now, saying that if you come to the company, please be sure to call him back!"
Chu Huan said: "I know!"
Xu Yi had nothing to report and turned around and left Chu Huan's office.
Chu Huan dialed Hu Yingxiang's phone number!
"Dr. Hu, what is it that makes you so anxious?"
Hu Yingxiang's hearty laughter came over the phone. He hadn't laughed like this for a long time. Since the opening of the Hong Kong stock market today, the smile on Hu Yingxiang's face has not gone away. It was really very satisfying.
In the past five months, Hopewell Properties' stock price has finally seen an increase.
How could such a situation not make him happy?
"The situation is like this, Director Chu. I have an old friend here who called me specifically this morning and said he wanted to treat you to dinner!"
Chu Huan's heart moved. If he were an ordinary person, Hu Yingxiang would definitely not tell him this matter. Moreover, it seems that there is only one person in Xiangjiang who has such influence for Hu Yingxiang to take such initiative!
Tsar Huo!
"Who is Director Hu's friend?" Although he had a guess in his mind, Chu Huan still wanted to make sure!
Hu Yingxiang said: "That's Mr. Huo!"
Sure enough, there have been rumors in the business circles that Hu Yingxiang had a very good relationship with Tsar Huo, and even Hu Yingxiang's later investment in infrastructure in his hometown was influenced by Tsar Huo.
Now it seems that although we don’t know whether these rumors are true or false, it is certain that the relationship between the two parties is good!
"No problem, just tell Mr. Huo and I will definitely arrive on time!"
Chu Huan also wanted to meet this legendary figure in the Xiangjiang business community.
Hu Yingxiang smiled and said: "Well, I will call Mr. Huo now, and I will contact you when the time is determined!"
Chu Huan smiled and said: "Okay!"
After the two hung up the phone, Chu Huan began to process today's documents. Because of the Huaye City project, Chu Huan had a lot more work at hand, and there were a lot more documents that he needed to sign.
These were all expected things, and Chu Huan was not surprised.
After finishing the company's affairs, it was already noon.
During this period, Hu Yingxiang also called, and it was scheduled to meet at Huo's house tonight!
Chu Huan said there was no problem and she would go to the appointment on time.
Then Chu Huan called Xu Yi and told him that he would not come to the company this afternoon. If anyone or something came to look for him, he only needed to record it. For important things, he could call Fengwu Securities to look for him. If
If it's not important, just wait until you come back to deal with it!
Xu Yi said there was no problem.
After leaving Jiahu Building, Chu Huan asked Qin Peng to drive to Fengwu Securities.
Today, the people protecting Chu Huan have been replaced by Lin Feng, Qin Peng, Qin Chang, Wang Li, and Zhou Dong. However, Lin Feng will continue to return to his hometown in a few days.
When they arrived at Fengwu Securities, Cao Yunshang, Gu Sha, and Jia Yu were already waiting for Chu Huan at the door of the building. After getting into Chu Huan's car, they went directly to Cao's house!
At this time, except Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang, others were already waiting for them here.
"Uncle, aunt, I'm sorry, something in the company has been delayed!" Chu Huan said with a smile.
Cao Wenjin had a happy expression on his face and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, this is something you can think of!"
After the two sat down, Chu Huan smiled and said to Cao Yunzu, who was looking forward to it: "Brother, I'll trouble you about the design of the Huaye City project!"
In the entire Xiangjiang, the family with the best relationship with Chu Huan is naturally the Cao family behind Cao Yunshang, who is already engaged to Chu Huan.
However, regarding the Huaye City project, the Cao family was not directly involved. Chu Huan and Cao Wenjin had also talked about this matter once.
But Cao Wenjin also had his own plans.
Under Chu Huan's reminder, the Cao family's Wanbang Shipping was not affected by the stock market crash. Not only was it not affected, it also made considerable profits under Cao Wenjin's operations.
It is precisely because of this kind of income that Cao Wenjin can use more cash to invest in his own industries in Southeast Asia.
It can be said that the main development target of Wanbang Shipping at this time is still Southeast Asia, so it has no idea of participating in this Huaye City project.
Of course, Chu Huan also understands that Cao Wenjin actually has another idea, that is, up to now, the Cao family has provided limited help to Chu Huan, but Chu Huan has been of great help to the Cao family. Just a stock market crash has made the family
Cao Wenjin has gained a lot.
If he continues to gain endless benefits from Chu Huan, Cao Wenjin will worry that Chu Huan has other ideas.
At this time, Chu Huan had already shown his great potential and achievements in business. Cao Wenjin did not want to lose a big thing for a small amount. Moreover, although the Cao family was not involved in this matter, Cao Yunshang's Fengwu Securities had already made the project public.
Previously, I acquired a lot of stocks related to Sun Hung Kai, New World, Hopewell Properties, and Hutchison International.
The profits earned here will not be less than the benefits gained from participating in the Huaye City project!
Just make a fortune in silence!
Not only that, because Cao Yunzu has graduated from North America this year. Although he has the backer of Cao Wenjin, Cao Yunzu himself is not well-known in the architectural design industry.
Now Chu Huan has decided to hand over the design of Huaye City to Cao Yunzu. This is another great thing for the Cao family!
Cao Yunzu said excitedly: "Don't worry, Ah Huan, I have contacted my teacher, and he will personally check for me about the four shopping malls in Huaye City!"
Chu Huan handed over the design of Huaye City to Cao Yunzu not only because of his relationship with the Cao family, but the most important reason was that behind Cao Yunzu there was Pei Yuming, a big shot in the construction industry!
Pei Ming has already become famous in North America. This period was the peak of his design inspiration.
With his design, the Huaye City project will definitely be more eye-catching!
Chu Huan smiled and said: "Then I'll be waiting for your masterpiece, big brother!"
Cao Yunzu was also very happy at this time. At this time, the whole Hong Kong was paying attention to Huaye City, and now he can become the chief designer of the Huaye City project.
Then he, who was still unknown in the field of architectural design in Xiangjiang before, will instantly become a rising star in the field of architectural design in Xiangjiang!
"Okay, don't talk about business as soon as you come back. Lunch is ready now. Come over and eat!"
Zhou Meiqi greeted everyone to sit down for lunch with a smile on her face!
Several people laughed and came to the restaurant.
At the dinner table, Zhou Meiqi looked at Chu Huan, his future son-in-law, and became more and more satisfied with him. Recently, he went to play mahjong with those good sisters, and all he heard were envious voices.
I remember when the scandal between Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang was first reported, those people were still sarcastic, saying that Chu Huan could not compare with Shao Weiqiang of the Shao family.
Now, no one has mentioned Shao Weiqiang. Instead, those people have changed their tune, saying that Cao Jiahui has good eyesight and can find such an outstanding son-in-law as Chu Huan.
Thinking of the faces of those people, Zhou Meiqi felt even happier, especially when he thought that there was a card game between them this afternoon, Zhou Meiqi became even happier.
"Ah Huan, you and Yun Shang will graduate in another year, right?"
Zhou Meiqi said with a smile.
Chu Huan naturally understood what Zhou Meiqi meant. When they got engaged, the two of them said they would get married sometime after graduation!
"That's right!" Chu Huan said with a smile: "But I have discussed it with Yun Shang. We are still young and our careers have just started, so we want to fall in love for two years first, and then we can have a relationship after living together.
marry!"
"You can fall in love even after you get married!" Zhou Meiqi immediately said dissatisfiedly.
Now she wishes that Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang could get married tomorrow!
"Mommy!" Cao Yunshang said dissatisfiedly from the side: "Can getting married be the same as falling in love? Besides, Brother Huan and I are no different from getting married now!"
This matter was the conclusion that Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang had discussed. They must get married, but Chu Huan did not want to get married so early.
Because there is still one thing that Chu Huan has not settled yet. After that thing is settled, the wedding of Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang can be officially put on the agenda.
Cao Yunshang also expressed that he understood what Chu Huan meant.
When Zhou Meiqi wanted to say something else, Cao Wenjin had already spoken.
"Okay, Ah Huan and Yun Shang are both adults. Let them make their own decisions!"
Zhou Meiqi couldn't say anything to Chu Huan. Now that Cao Wenjin took the initiative to speak, he naturally became the target of Zhou Meiqi's attack.
Cao Wenjin immediately showed an expression of begging for mercy, while Chu Huan and others spread their hands, expressing that they were helpless, and then bowed their heads to eat.
The lunch at Cao's house was very enjoyable. After it was over, Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang returned to the room together, and Cao Yunshang told Chu Huan what he had gained during this time.
After the two of them chatted with each other for a whole afternoon, they returned to Fengwu Securities together.
Throughout the afternoon, Chu Huan had been checking his gains at Fengwu Securities.
In the afternoon, Chu Huan left Fengwu Securities and went to the Huo family for a banquet, while Cao Yunshang returned to their love nest in Repulse Bay. According to Cao Yunshang's words, she had an appointment with Zhu Xiaozhao, Miao Kexiu, and
Lin Qingxia, Zhao Yazhi and others had a dinner at home.
It is understandable for Cao Yunshang to invite Miao Kexiu, Zhu Xiaozhao and Chu Huan. After all, one of them is his woman and the other is his most trusted female hair girl. But what the hell are Lin Qingxia and Zhao Yazhi?
Haven't taken action yet?
Are you, a big lady, going to establish your prestige now?
He smiled and shook his head. He could only think about this kind of thing and didn't ask.
When he arrived at Huo's house, Chu Huan saw Huo Zhenting waiting at the door!
"Ah Huan, you are really a blockbuster even if you don't even make a sound!"
After Huo Zhenting saw Chu Huan, he gave Chu Huan's shoulder an affectionate kiss.
Chu Huan asked in confusion: "Brother Huo, there's something I don't understand. Why do you have to have such a hairstyle?"
Now Huo Zhenting is only 27 years old, but he already has his classic middle-parted hairstyle, which is also fixed with hair wax.
In Chu Huan's opinion, the hairstyle with a middle parting is the best way to test a handsome guy's qualities. However, if it were Huo Zhenting who had a middle parting and waxed his hair, let alone Huo Zhenting, Chu Huan thought that it would be difficult even for him to control such a hairstyle.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But Huo Zhenting seemed to have not noticed at all, and said with a smile: "Isn't this great? Anyway, the girls I know say that I am very handsome like this!"
Haha, that’s because girls see you as handsome when you take out money, but they won’t see you as handsome with this hairstyle. If you were rich, even in the Mediterranean they would have to praise you for being handsome!
"Anyway, I can't understand your aesthetics!"
Chu Huan finally said helplessly.
Huo Zhenting pulled Chu Huan into the living room and said with a smile: "That's because you don't understand fashion. When I have time, I will introduce my hair stylist to you!"
I promise not to kill the other party.
When Chu Huan and Huo Zhenting came to the living room, Chu Huan saw that Hu Yingxiang had arrived early, and the person chatting with Hu Yingxiang at this time was the thin, fifty-year-old Huo Shahuang!
Looking at the life of Emperor Huo Tsar, the turning point was probably at the age of 30.
Before the age of 30, it is "Misfortunes never come alone, but unparalleled blessings will come"; after the age of 30, it is "Misfortunes never come alone, but unparalleled blessings will come tomorrow."
Tsar Huo was born into a family on the water. When he was a child, his family was crowded on a 6-foot-long boat (the canopy part). The boat served as a home, and the family lived, ate, and slept on it.
The source of livelihood is relying on my father to rent a boat to barge goods. He is busy all day long. Apart from paying for the boat rental, he has little income. The family's life is extremely difficult.
According to Tsar Huo's recollection, his family was so poor that they could not even afford shoes. No matter how cold the weather was or how hot or cold they were, they would always have bare feet on the boat. People said that it was not stable to stand on the boat with shoes on, and this could only be one of the reasons.
There was a typhoon one year, and Huo Tsarhuang's two young brothers capsized and fell into the water, and were buried at the bottom of the sea. The mother, who was pregnant with Huo Tsarhuang's sister, was rescued by his father and uncle and survived.
Not long after, my uncle, who was familiar with the properties of water, was also swallowed by the strong wind and waves.
His father escaped from shipwrecks several times, but when the Emperor was 7 years old, his father was killed by illness.
It was precisely because of this that Emperor Huo's mother abandoned the boat and took her family to live in a crumbling tenement building in Wan Chai.
At that time, the tenement buildings were so crowded that there were actually 50 families living on the first floor. Each family occupied a space as small as a birdcage. Xiangjiang called this kind of house a cage house.
The cage house also belongs to the lower-class families on the shore.
At that time, Tsar Huo was huddled together with his mother, 9-year-old sister, and 5-year-old sister!
Huo's mother was illiterate but far-sighted. She felt deeply embarrassed about being uneducated and fully supported her son's education.
His father was still alive when Tsarevich was "enlightened". He studied in the "Sailboat Free School", which was sponsored by wealthy shipowners and free of charge.
But Yi Xue was on a ship, drifting with the ship and his whereabouts were uncertain.
When Tsarevich went to school, he often couldn't even find the "school".
After his father died, his mother still insisted on letting her son study. She was afraid of delaying his son's schooling, so she rowed a small boat and looked for schools everywhere.
After three years of this, the mother asked her son to transfer to Dunmei Primary School. The primary school adopts a fee-based system, but there is a free class. You need to pass an exam to enter. Free is a scholarship.
Not only did Emperor Huo pass the exam, he also got first place.
After completing primary education, Huo's mother sent her son to the famous Huangren Academy.
Under such difficult circumstances, Huo Tsar Huang completed his secondary school education, but when the war came and the Huo family lost their livelihood, Huo Tsar Emperor had no choice but to go out to work!
Before the age of 20, Tsar Huo worked six jobs, none of which resulted in meager income. Later, he went to help in his mother's freight store. Then he discovered the business opportunity of shipping, but he still lost all his money!
This kind of life lasted until he was 30 years old, when Emperor Huo Tsar made a fortune by relying on smuggling and bought the first building in his life!
From then on, Tsar Huo began to make rapid progress in the real estate industry, but unfortunately, because of Tsar Huo's position, he was suppressed by the Hong Kong government, and Tsar Huo's ambitious Starlight Travel also struggled.
In the end, I had no choice but to give up and sold Starlight Bank to Jardine Matheson at a low price.
But as luck would have it, Tsar Huo took advantage of his relationship with his hometown to start a sand scouring business, and monopolized the industry, blocking the lifeline of Xiangjiang's real estate industry!
It can be said that although Tsar Huo is no longer in the real estate industry, his influence in the real estate industry is still huge.
Seeing Chu Huan coming over, Hu Yingxiang and Huo Shahuang stood up at the same time.
Chu Huan took two quick steps and came to the front of Emperor Huo. He took the lead in extending his hands and said: "Hello, Mr. Huo!"
When Emperor Huo saw Chu Huan like this, he also smiled and said, "I'm the old guy who took the liberty to invite me, so I'm sorry!"
Chu Huan said with a smile: "Mr. Huo, please don't say that. Your past deeds have made me admire you very much. It's just that I never had the opportunity to get to know Mr. Huo before. Now that I have this opportunity, I still need to ask Mr. Huo more about some things in the future."
of!"
Emperor Huo's eyes lit up. He had asked Hu Yingxiang to invite Chu Huan over before, more out of curiosity and wanted to meet this rising star in Xiangjiang business. But when he heard what Chu Huan said, it was obvious that there was something in his words!
Chu Huan naturally had something to say. Although the situation in his hometown is still a bit complicated now, it will be over in a few years. At that time, Chu Huan will definitely return to his hometown to operate. Now he has preliminary contact with Huo Shahuang.
, with his recommendation in the future, my weight in my hometown will definitely be heavier!
Although my status in Xiangjiang may have been very high at that time, I still have to make preparations!
