449, Chu Huans wedding, a feast for the wealthy family (Part 2)
There is no need to go into details about the wedding ceremony. There is no way that a wedding like Chu Huan's would be too farce.
After the ceremony, Cao Yunshang changed into the cheongsam, and Chu Huan and Chu Huan, led by Cao Wenjin and with the help of the groomsmen and bridesmaids, began to toast.
It doesn't sound much different from the wedding banquet back home, and it is actually like this.
"Weng He, Uncle Huo, thank you both for coming in person!"
The first table Chu Huan came to was where Mr. He from Haojiang and Emperor Huo from Xiangjiang were sitting.
This is the first time that Chu Huan has met He Xian, the real King of Haojiang, and this person is also inextricably linked to his hometown.
But it is precisely because of this that after He Xian's death, the ghost bosses in Haojiang immediately took action against He Xian's Dafeng Bank in Haojiang, causing a run on Dafeng Bank. Later, his hometown took action and saved Dafeng.
bank!
He Xian smiled heartily and said: "I have always heard that there is a rising star in Xiangjiang. I have always been very curious in my heart. I want to see it with my own eyes. When I saw it today, it turned out that he is the best among people. Ah Huan, don't you blame me for today?
Uninvited!"
Chu Huan quickly said: "My nephew did not do his job well. If I knew that He Weng was coming, I should have gone to Haojiang in person to invite He Weng."
He Xian smiled and said: "No wonder A Dong has been praising you so much, A Huan. Come to Haojiang when you have time and let's have a good chat!"
Chu Huan held the wine glass and said: "I can't ask for it!"
Afterwards, Chu Huan exchanged a few words with Emperor Huo and then continued to toast.
Chu Huan's toasting was also very particular, and of course these particularities were placed where each guest was sitting.
Chu Huan came to the dining table where MacLehose and others were sitting.
"Mr. Governor, both of you would like to thank you very much for your support!"
Even though Chu Huan did not come to their table for a toast just now, but went to drink with Mr. He and Huo Tsar, MacLehose and others did not show any displeasure at this time, and always had a look of sadness on their faces.
A dull smile.
"Dr. Chu is so polite. Today, Mr. Chu is getting married, and there are many wealthy families in Xiangjiang. The future development of Xiangjiang will still depend on the full help of Mr. Chu and others!"
"This is what we should do. After all, only when Xiangjiang is good can we all be really good!"
After the greetings ended, Chu Huan continued to toast.
"I didn't expect that Mr. He from Haojiang would come. How long has this master not left Haojiang?"
At this time, Tang Yunian and Huo Zhenting were helping to greet the guests that Chu Huan could not attend to at this time. Taking advantage of his free time, Tang Yunian gave a lecture to Huo Zhenting.
Huo Zhenting whispered: "Mr. He called my dad specifically because of A Huan's marriage. After knowing some of A Huan's thoughts, he decided to come over!"
Tang Yunian naturally knew the positions of Tsar Huo and Mr. He in Xiangjiang. It can be said that they are the two business tycoons closest to their hometowns in Xiangjiang and Haojiang.
Now hearing what Huo Zhenting said, Tang Yunian was immediately surprised and said: "You mean A Huan actually has the same thoughts about his hometown as Uncle Huo and Mr. He?"
Huo Zhenting looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to the two of them, so he whispered: "I don't know about this matter, but you see, Mr. He and my father came here specially today. Do you know what it means?"
Know?"
Tang Yunian looked at MacLehose and others and whispered: "Aren't you worried about the situation with the Hong Kong government?"
Huo Zhenting snorted and said: "You think this is the 1950s and 1960s. The Chinese businessmen in Xiangjiang now are completely different from the Chinese businessmen in the past. In addition, A Huan's influence in Xiangjiang now, even if they have any dissatisfaction in their hearts
It won’t show, at most it will make Ah Huan uncomfortable in some places, unless..."
Seeing that Huo Zhenting had finished speaking, Tang Yunian asked anxiously: "Unless what?"
Huo Zhenting said: "Unless Ah Huan takes a clear stand like my father and Mr. He, the Hong Kong government can only turn a blind eye!"
Tang Yunian sighed: "How long has it taken for Ah Huan to have such influence in Xiangjiang?"
Huo Zhenting also said with many sighs: "Yes, but Ah Huan has accumulated a lot of experience. He has been developing in a low-key manner before, and this is the best time to avoid being suppressed by the Hong Kong government. But at that time, the Hong Kong government could not have thought
Ah Huan's development is so fast."
Speaking of this, Huo Zhenting said helplessly: "If our Huo family could keep a lower profile at the beginning, maybe the situation would be different now!"
Huo Zhenting also felt this.
In the 1960s, Tsar Huo was in the limelight in Hong Kong business circles.
Invest tens of millions to build the Star Building in the prosperous area of Kowloon's Star Ferry Pier.
Even before Starlight Hotel was built, it was already full of tenants. Emperor Huo rented out all the properties and sat on his fishing boat.
But when Tsar Huo officially started recruiting tenants, all the tenants received "advice" calls, saying that if they rented the office space in Starlight House, the telephone service would not be available in the near future.
The reason why such a thing happened was because of the relationship between Emperor Huo and his hometown at that time.
At that time, the telephone company was a British-owned company, and behind it were many prominent pro-British figures, including important members of the Hong Kong government.
If the phone is not open, business cannot be done. As a result, the tenants are scared away.
Starlight House couldn't rent it out, so Emperor Huo had no choice but to part with it and sell it to a real estate company under Jardine Matheson at a low price.
At this time, the real estate industry, which had been in a slump for a while, recovered and there were so many renters that Land Land rented out hundreds of office rooms within half a year.
Tsar Huo paid a loss of 30 million Hong Kong dollars in vain.
It was precisely because of this incident that Tsar Huo was so disheartened that he withdrew from the Hong Kong business community and kept a low profile ever since.
But even so, by the next century, the Huo family's wealth will still be measured in hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars, which makes people admire Huo Tsar's ability.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Tang Yunian naturally knew about the Starlight Tour. Hearing Huo Zhenting's sigh, he could only sigh helplessly.
But then he cheered up and said: "However, as you said, things are not the same as before. A smart person like Ah Huan will definitely not make such a mistake again."
Huo Zhenting nodded and said, "What really makes my dad admire is Ah Huan's business layout."
"How do you say this?" Tang Yunian asked curiously.
Huo Zhenting said with a smile: "My dad said that although A Huan is working hard to develop the real estate industry in Xiangjiang, in fact, A Huan's foundation is the Fantasy Comics Club. Unfortunately, the Fantasy Comics Club's business is in Japan. In Europe and the United States, Xiangjiang only occupies
However, Ah Huan was very smart to locate the printing factory and toy factory in Hong Kong, so that the Hong Kong government would be dissatisfied and vigilant.
Even if there were any actions, there was no way to shake A Huan's foundation. On the contrary, it allowed A Huan to take hold of the vitality that they needed to solve the employment population.
Therefore, if A-Huan flexes her muscles in the real estate industry at this time, the Hong Kong government can only hold its nose and admit it.
Not to mention, Ah Huan still controls the big killer weapon Black and White Media, you know, ghost bosses always want to save face!"
While the two were chatting, Cao Yunxuan's voice came from the distance, "What are you two doing? Why don't you hurry up and greet the guests!"
Tang Yunian and Huo Zhenting smiled at each other and continued working!
At this time, Chu Huan was toasting with He Gambling King He Hongshen.
As for He Chaoqiong next to He Hongshen, the heroine who is a must-read in most Hong Kong novels, she was just a 13-year-old little bean at this time, and Chu Huan just glanced at her briefly.
There are too many beauties around, and it is impossible for Chu Huan to be interested in a 13-year-old little Douding right now, otherwise something will happen.
"Director Chu, if you come to Haojiang in the future, please make sure to call me so that I can fulfill my duties as a landlord!"
He Hongshen had a simple exchange with Chu Huan in an extraordinary manner.
Unlike Mr. He, Chu Huan and He Hongshen have met several times. Although there is no deep friendship, it is like this in the business world. Anyone may be a potential partner!
"Definitely, definitely, I have always wanted to go to Lisboa and play a few games. Then He Sheng will teach you a few more tricks!"
He Hongshen smiled and said: "I don't mind teaching Mr. Chu a few tricks, but I don't know if Mr. Chu dares to follow him and learn them?"
Chu Huan then remembered a rumor in Hong Kong and Macao. Although He Hongshen was the gambling king of Haojiang and was in charge of Lisboa, in fact, He Hongshen himself had extremely poor gambling skills.
"Forget it, I'd better learn to dance from He Sheng!" Chu Huan changed her tune.
He Hongshen was a great dancer, and it was He Hongshen who met his fourth wife at a dance.
"Haha, I will be very honored!" He Hongshen said with a smile.
Chu Huan did not communicate too much with the rich people who were familiar with them, and this kind of occasion was not suitable. On the contrary, Chu Huan would chat more with those rich people who were not familiar with him or who came from other places.
"Uncle Lin, I haven't seen you for a long time. My nephew didn't entertain you well today. You can't blame me!"
After passing a few familiar friends, Chu Huan came to the dining table where Lin Wutong was sitting.
When Chu Huan went to Malaysia to find Chu Tianren, he was living in Lin Wutong's Genting. Chu Huan encountered some troubles in Genting, and then Lin Wutong came forward to meet Chu Huan.
In addition, Lin Wutong also had some friendship with Chu Tianzhong, Chu Huan's father.
After Chu Huan's rise in Xiangjiang, the two parties had contact, but the relationship could never be said to be close.
"Today is your special day, so don't worry about us old guys. I haven't seen many of my friends for many years. Now I just take this opportunity to catch up on old times!"
Lin Wutong laughed and talked to Chu Huan.
At this time, Lin Wutong was extremely grateful for his original choice. In just five years, Chu Huan had grown into a towering tree. Although there was no business relationship between the two parties now, Lin Wutong had always been in the financial center of Xiangjiang.
Want to come in.
Now that Chu Huan has this relationship, it can be said that both parties have a good foundation for cooperation.
"Then let's get busy first. When we're done, we'll thank Uncle Lin properly!" Chu Huan said with a smile.
"Go and get busy!" Lin Wutong acted very close to Chu Huan.
...
"After this wedding, I have reason to believe that Ah Huan's investment territory will definitely expand to Southeast Asia."
Feng Yongfa and Guo Bingxiang, old friends, got together at this time and also observed the situation on Chu Huan's side.
Seeing Chu Huan and Feng Yongfa talking and laughing happily, Feng Yongfa couldn't help but sigh.
Guo Bingxiang thought of the conversation he had with Li Tianying before.
At that time, Li Tianying said that after Yunhai Chain completed half of its expansion in Japan, it would focus on the entire Southeast Asian and Taiwan markets.
"I just don't know what kind of business Ah Huan wants to do!" Guo Bingxiang said in a low voice.
Feng Yongfa thought for a while and said: "It should be something like a factory. After all, the labor of workers in Xiangjiang is getting more and more expensive. The labor in Southeast Asia is still much cheaper than in Xiangjiang."
Guo Bingxiang had different opinions on this, saying: "It's hard to say, it may be like this in the short term, but the long-term situation..."
Having said this, Guo Bingxiang turned his eyes to Huo Tsarhuang and Mr. He who were chatting, and then continued: "Even Mr. He came in person to congratulate A Huan on her marriage today. Obviously, whether it is Huo Tsarhuang or He
Sir, you should all be optimistic about A Huan's views on his hometown. If the market there can be opened, I think A Huan will move his factory to his hometown!"
Feng Yongfa looked at Guo Bingxiang and said curiously: "No, is the situation in my hometown suitable for foreign investment now?"
Guo Bingxiang said: "It is definitely inappropriate now, but when I was chatting with Ah Huan before, I could tell from his tone that he was very optimistic about the future of his hometown."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Feng Yongfa was silent for a moment, and then said with a wry smile: "This is embarrassing. Even if my hometown is really preparing to open up the market, I think the financial industry will be the last."
Only then can we enter!"
The Feng family's current main business is still the financial industry.
These people cannot say how familiar they are with the situation in their hometown, but they all know one thing very clearly.
That is, the resources of my hometown are really not comparable to other places in the world. If my hometown really opens up the market, and if the attitude of the upper management of my hometown is firm on the matter of opening up, then this market will be infinitely large.
market.
Of course, this requires a very firm attitude towards the future of your hometown.
Guo Bingxiang nodded in agreement and said: "Ah Huan's family has a big business, so naturally they don't care about some problems. We still need to look more and consider more!"
Feng Yongfa also nodded helplessly.
"Mr. Isoda, Mr. Tsuyoshi, and Mr. Urabei, I would like to welcome you all to travel thousands of miles to attend my wedding with Yunshang!" cascot
At this time, Chu Huan had arrived at the location of Ichiro Isoda, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, Kiichiro Urabita, and Yusuke Nozaki, who was not well-known in Xiangjiang.
The four of them also stood up at this time, with Ichiro Isoda taking the lead in speaking: "Chu-san is so polite. You are one of our most distinguished customers of Sumitomo Bank. We feel very honored to come to your wedding."
The other people also spoke out to greet Chu Huan, but at this time they all said some blessings. It was obvious that everyone understood that now was not the time to discuss business matters.
Moreover, when they arrived in Xiangjiang yesterday, Chu Huan had already received them and stated that he would go to Japan after his wedding and would discuss various matters for future cooperation with them.
Just when Chu Huan and others left the table, Ichiro Isoda looked at Chen Haichao who was following Chu Huan with some curiosity, and asked in a low voice to Kiichiro Urabita next to him.
"Pubei-kun, does that person look familiar to you?"
Only then did Pubei Qiichiro turn his attention from the newlyweds Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang to Chen Haichao.
His eyes were a little confused, and then he suddenly whispered: "Isn't this Chen Haichao from Kyushu Electronics?"
Kyushu VCRs are popular in Japanese families, and Kyushu Walkmans are popular among Japanese young people.
Now Kyushu's reputation in Japan is not low at all, and Chen Haichao has also received many business celebrities in Japan.
That's why Ichiro Isoda and Kiriichi Urahoku recognized Chen Haichao here, but on this occasion tonight, Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang are the most handsome boys and the most beautiful girls in Xiyan, so at the beginning
When they arrived, the two of them did not recognize Chen Haichao.
"Ah, I only knew that Chu Huan and Chen Haichao had a good relationship before. I didn't expect that their relationship would be so good. Chen Haichao even became Chu Huan's best man today."
Ichiro Isoda couldn't help but preach.
Tsutsumi Yoshiaki on the other side also said: "It seems that we have to re-evaluate the relationship between these two people!"
Ichiro Isoda and Kiriichi Urahita nodded at the same time, and then the three of them looked at Nozaki Kosuke.
Nozaki Yusuke hurriedly said: "You three, although Chu Huan and I are cooperating with Nikkatsu, I am still a Japanese. Of course I stand with you!"
Now Ichiro Isoda, Nomura Securities, and Seibu Group, although they all cooperate with Chu Huan to varying degrees, the relationship between the two parties seems to be very good, and they even came to attend the wedding of Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang.
But it is impossible to say how good their relationship with Chu Huan is. There is definitely no problem in being close to each other on collaborative projects, but if possible, they would also like to tear off a piece of flesh from Chu Huan.
.
After the three of them received Nozaki Kosuke's answer, smiles appeared on their faces.
Throughout the wedding banquet, Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang were among the wealthy people, accepting their blessings.
By the time the wedding banquet ended, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.
Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang sat slumped on the chairs in the wedding banquet hall, looking at each other with a bitter smile.
"Okay, one-third of the task is completed!"
Cao Yunshang felt like he had gone through a disaster.
The wedding of Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang naturally could not be just one wedding banquet. The family members of Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang were entertained on the second day.
Originally this scene should have been arranged on the first day, but considering the situation of the Chu family and the current business affairs of Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang, this scene was arranged for the second day.
On the third day, it’s friends, classmates and others from both parties!
"Brother Long, as soon as you fly back, Mr. Zou may be in a hurry!"
Also on the peninsula, the last day of the wedding banquet of Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang continued here. Li Xiaolong, Hong Jinbao, Cheng Long, and the four Xu brothers, Chu Huan’s friends or black and white video artists, attended today’s wedding banquet.
.
It's not that Chu Huan looked down on them and deliberately arranged for them to be on the third day. In fact, even if these people went to the wedding banquet on the first day, they were the ones who felt uncomfortable.
When Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang were engaged, these people went there, but what happened...
It's all very uncomfortable.
On the contrary, it is not as happy as it is now.
There are no big bosses in the business world, and there are not so many rules, so chatting is fun.
Li Xiaolong sat there and said with a smile: "In that case, if you get married, Ah Huan, I will come over and attend. Naturally, the filming of the movie will be postponed."
Chu Huan held the wine glass and said with a smile: "Be particular!"
Li Xiaolong also clinked glasses with Chu Huan happily.
Cheng Long on the side looked at Li Xiaolong with some envy.
Ever since Li Xiaolong left Hong Kong and made Hollywood his main battlefield, Cheng Long has become the well-deserved number one Kung Fu superstar in Hong Kong.
Now that he has become the number one superstar in Hong Kong, Cheng Long naturally hopes to enter Hollywood like his predecessor Li Xiaolong.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Chu Huan noticed Cheng Long's envious look, but didn't say anything.
It is definitely not a wise choice to let Cheng Long go to Hollywood to develop his career. What is popular in Hollywood now are Li Xiaolong's hard-hitting action movies.
This can be seen from the action stars who later became famous in Hollywood, such as Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis and others.
Li Xiaolong is a representative in action movies.
In this regard, Cheng Long has no advantage at all. At the same time, the difference between Cheng Long and Li Xiaolong is that when Li Xiaolong went to Hollywood for the second time, he already had a certain reputation in Hollywood. At the same time, according to the North American
People think that Li Xiaolong is actually an action star born in Hollywood.
After all, Li Xiaolong had already participated in movies such as "The Green Hornet" in Hollywood before this.
However, Cheng Long's current fame is still limited to Hong Kong and Southeast Asia.
If you want Cheng Long to go to Hollywood to develop, you still have to wait until his movie video tapes have been sold in a certain amount in Europe and the United States and have accumulated a certain degree of popularity. That will be the best time to go to Hollywood.
Of course, with Apex Pictures here, Cheng Long would definitely not be used as a tool like he was in another time and space when he went to Hollywood to develop.
Chu Huan did not explain these things to Cheng Long, and Fang Jianhui would naturally comfort him when the time came.
"By the way, Ah Huan, where will you and Miss Cao go on your honeymoon this time?"
Li Xiaolong asked with a smile.
Chu Huan said: "Japan, Europe, and North America will all go around and around. When the time comes, when we get to North America, you will have to treat us!"
Li Xiaolong immediately said: "No problem!"
...
The three-day wedding banquet was finally over.
Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang have also officially moved to Chu's house at No. 12 Galley Road on the top of the mountain.
At this time, the two of them were lying on the bed, not doing anything, they just needed to slow down.
"It's too tiring to get married!"
Cao Yunshang rested for a long time before finally uttering this sentence weakly.
Chu Huan lay next to Cao Yunshang and said in the same feeble tone: "Fortunately, it's over."
"Yeah, fortunately it's over!" Cao Yunshang also said.
Then the two of them continued to be speechless.
After a while, Cao Yunshang sat up on the bed and said to Chu Huan, "I'm going to take a bath first."
"Let's go together!" Chu Huan also sat up on the bed, took off his coat and said, "Just think of it as making some contribution to saving water resources around the world!"
Cao Yunshang: "..."
.......
Although the wedding of Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang only took place for three days, the news about their marriage occupied the front pages of Hong Kong newspapers for a week.
First, some media broke the news that Chu Huan's wedding banquet cost as much as 200 million Hong Kong dollars, and more than 50 million Hong Kong dollars were spent on the wedding banquet alone, including the banquet, the decoration of the venue, and the wedding banquet for everyone.
Figures prepared for guests, etc.
What’s more, Cao Yunshang changed into nine sets of wedding clothes in these three days, which perfectly demonstrated the true meaning of what it means to be beautiful no matter what you wear.
And to celebrate her marriage, Chu Huan sent big red envelopes to all the employees of her company, which was another huge expense.
Someone has estimated that this item alone costs almost 100 million Hong Kong dollars.
In the end, everyone came to the conclusion that the wedding of Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang, not counting anything else, cost 200 million Hong Kong dollars.
In later generations, although the wedding of Xu Jinheng and He Chaoqiong was called a wedding with a sky-high price of 1 billion by the media, in fact, this figure only included He Chaoqiong's dowry.
In terms of expenditure on the wedding banquet, Xu Jinheng and He Chaoqiong only spent 20 to 30 million on their wedding.
Then came the business bosses who appeared at the wedding of Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang.
"This newspaper is not surprised that the wealthy people in Xiangjiang came out en masse. After all, according to the influence of Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang in Xiangjiang, it is understandable that these people can attend the scene, but what really surprises this newspaper is that,
Visitors from Southeast Asia and Japan.
Perhaps at this time, we truly know how big Chu Huan’s business has become!”
This paragraph appeared on the front page of the Hong Kong Economic Journal.
It immediately attracted the attention of many Xiangjiang citizens. Previously, they only knew that Chu Huan's business was very large outside of Xiangjiang, but they were not very clear about how big it was. Now they have just glimpsed the tip of the iceberg!
The wedding of Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang has become the focus of discussions among Xiangjiang citizens after dinner.
But just like everything in this world, no matter how sensational it is, it is time-sensitive. As the popularity of the wedding between the two decreased.
Finally, someone started paying attention to the dividends from the Huaye City project.
Since the construction of Huaye City, it has attracted the attention of many Xiangjiang citizens. Now that it has begun to receive dividends, it is natural to pay more attention to it.
This time, Huaye City distributed a total dividend of HK$200 million. Zhulu Real Estate, which held 60% of the shares, received a dividend of HK$120 million. Hehe International, which held 15% of the shares, received a dividend of HK$30 million. Sun Hung Kai and New World, which held 10% of the shares respectively, also received a dividend of HK$2,000.
A dividend of HK$10,000, if Hopewell Properties holds at least 5% of the shares, it will receive HK$10 million.
When everyone noticed this, the stock prices of these four listed companies finally began to rise.
But Chu Huan can no longer see this, because Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang have already arrived in Tokyo at this time!
