Gu Kun received a confirmation call from von Liszt on the way to the Zhaoming Palace for a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve.

By the time he hung up, the car had already arrived.

"In Germany these days, everything is going well. "Lan Fang's Grand Duke Zhu Youdong was very kind and kind to Gu Kun.

"It doesn't seem to be easy, saying it's a vacation shopping, and I came back with a lot of phone calls. The Grand Duchess was also gentle and emotional.

"It's nothing, it's just a limited edition luxury car, and the Mercedes-Benz people have to ask for the details of the needs. Gu Kun signaled that the other party didn't have to worry.

Zhu Youdong nodded: "That's good, leisurely, this kid's physique is much worse than yours, and he is still jet lag, he slept late today, but it is convenient to keep the New Year for a while, come in." ”

Since about half a year ago, when he called Gu Kun in private, he had already subconsciously called "virtuous son-in-law", but Gu Kun and Zhu Youran had just returned from Germany in the past two days, and he kept his distance in terms of uncharacteristic titles.

Maybe this is also the natural mentality of fathers. Before Zhu Youran returned to China, Zhu Youdong already had some psychological preparation for a bad result in his heart, thinking that even if Gu Kun succeeded Zhu Youran this time, he would admit it.

But in the end, Gu Kun was very gentlemanly, more because he didn't want to harm the little girl, so he didn't take advantage of it. Because when Zhu Youran went abroad with him, it was still the Christmas season last year, and Zhu Youran was not even 16 years old at that time. When I came back, it was already February, and I had just turned 16 years old. However, Gu Kun didn't want to be the kind of fly camp dog who "waited for time and waited for you to be legal before poisoning", so he simply stocked it for a while.

The Grand Duchess secretly knocked on the side to test her daughter, and found that her daughter was not eaten by the bad guys, so she was quite relieved at that time, and immediately secretly told her husband.

Therefore, Zhu Youdong planned to stop calling Gu Kun "virtuous son-in-law" during this time, but in fact, he was more relieved of Gu Kun in his heart.

Gu Kunlong followed Zhu Youdong into the inner hall with a smile, Zhu Youdong casually asked about Gu Kun's luxury car transaction just now, and Gu Kun told the truth without reservation:

"Nominally spent 100 million euros and paid 70 million in fact, so that their entire luxury car, which costs 5 tons of gold in name and only 3 tons of gold in fact, is the only one in the world. In fact, it doesn't use so much money at all, just to brag about multiple gimmicks in the future, and the gap between hundreds of millions and not hundreds of millions is too big. ”

Rao is Zhu Youdong is also considered to be rich and noble, and he is used to seeing battles, but he was still taken aback by Gu Kun: "It's so expensive? How do you operate the actual payment you said? Won't you be cheated? And you are also considered to have a big reputation in the world, so they won't give some endorsement discounts?"

Gu Kun smiled slightly: "Don't worry, how do you care about the account?" We will give 100 million on the surface, and they will give my driver 30 million euros back for the test fee, isn't this 70 million." Endorsement fees can't be touched, and I'm not a slut like an Oscar winner, how can I collect money.

In addition, I signed a custom agreement with them, and they promised me that the car would never appear on the earth in the future, so I gave this money. But if there is a second car, it will be a breach of contract, and I will get back all the 100 million I have according to the order - if the other design is not changed, it will not work to pick up the golden shell, and it will be considered a breach of contract. ”

In terms of identity, Gu Kun has always been very careful. It is the master who spends the money, and the younger brother who receives the money.

is like Princess Grace Kelly, who was the Oscar-winning actress when she was a lowly business, she could charge advertising fees and endorsement fees, but she couldn't collect them after becoming the princess of Monaco. She can continue to use Hermes, but only for the sake of royal decency, or for the sake of the royal family's invisible show, and cannot collect money.

Gu Kun is now going to marry the county lord, which is the same as marrying a prince.

Of course, this is not to say that in contemporary times, singing and acting are still out of the stream. It's just that people in the top upper class will not be out of the stream if they do it as a career, and if it's out of hobby, not for profit, it's okay, and it doesn't hurt the quality at all.

Just like Ma Feng in later generations, he also made movies, or starred in "Gong Shoudao", but people don't get paid, they just play, this is very high, and those who know how will respect him as a ticket friend.

In the early years of the Republic of China, the second son of President Yuan Da's family, he loved to sing Peking Opera, and he was a senior of the big characters of the Green Gang, and he often came on stage to say two sentences, which was the same as Ma Ye's concert skills.

History books will only write that Yuan Kewen is a "famous ticket holder of Peking Opera", and definitely not a "famous actor", once he says that the famous actor is insulting to others, people do not charge money for singing, but pay for it to invite people to watch.

Gu Kun received a Mercedes-Benz return of 30 million euros today, and he must not touch the money in person, and he will be cheap if he gets it. Nominally, he can only be paid by his driver, which is a "test fee", which is the same as the salary earned by aircraft test pilots testing new models.

Zhu Youdong no longer questioned this question, but kindly reminded: "However, at present, the countries of Southeast Asia are also in a national crisis, you have not even finished selling those Hong Kong stocks in the financial tsunami, and everyone has not completely recovered out of the crisis. ”

Gu Kun explained sincerely: "It's okay, I just placed the order now, and I didn't say that the result will be out now, I will pay attention to the confidentiality work, and I will not leak any news to the outside world for at least half a year." Most of my harvesting moves won't be effective until at least the second half of this year, and some others won't be effective until next year's Olympics at the latest, when the aftermath of the financial crisis will have long since faded. ”

"That's good, that's good. Zhu Youdong nodded, let Gu Kun sit down, and instructed the palace maid to serve the food.

After a while, Zhu Youran also came out, talking to his father, the prince, the mother, and Yan Yan about some homely things, and Gu Kun about the New Year's outlook, and the family had a happy Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and watched programs from the mainland of China on satellite TV to observe the New Year.

……

After the Chinese New Year, Gu Kun really hibernated for a long time in a low-key manner as he promised Zhu Youdong.

After all, the money that should have been spent before has been spent, and when the project grows, there is nothing to toss.

Southeast Asian countries are still in the aftermath of the difficult period, and it is not suitable for high-profile irritation of their own citizens and even neighboring countries

Half a year of autistic farming time passed in a flash, and in a blink of an eye, it was the early autumn of 1999 and the end of the summer vacation.

The first batch of Mao Niuer international students sent to China by Gu Kun that year also completed the transition of the senior internship, officially graduated and joined Gu Kun's various companies full-time, adding a group of fresh and capable blood to Gu Kun's career.

Lin Ying was also one of those international students, but she didn't need the bursary sponsored by Gu Kun, and she flew back to Lanfang immediately after getting her graduation certificate and degree certificate in July.

After the crazy infrastructure construction that began in 97, Lanfang currently has a few high-grade, Hilton five-star hotels, the first high-end SHOPPING-Mall project specializing in luxury goods will be completed at the end of this year, the grade is similar to the high-end version of Wanda Plaza 20 years later, which is definitely very grand in 1999.

These hotels and shopping malls and other projects, Gu Kun will definitely entrust Lin Ying to help him keep an eye on them in the future. Lin Ying may not be professional enough, but as a supervisor, she is reliable enough, and the specific management can still be handed over to the team of professional managers.

Because of the love between Gu Kun and the little girl of the Hilton family, Pabrie, it has been 3 years now, just a few months ago, Gu Kun estimated that Pabrie would definitely not be able to bear the loneliness after she reached the age of 18 and would take the route of a fancy lady in the future, so he kicked Pabrie first, and the two officially announced their breakup.

Therefore, in the future in the hotel industry, Gu Kun can't expect the people of the Hilton family to be completely of the same mind as him, and the reconciliation of interests has almost come to an end.

This can't be said that Gu Kun is worthy of Pabrie, everyone is just playing, Pabriken has been guarding Gu Kun from 16 to 18 years old, which is already the limit, Gu Kun is not good at delaying other people's family business persona, people were originally destined to be that kind of person, to be sacrificed for the family.

It's all on this road, who doesn't know who, and who hasn't been mentally prepared.

As for the relationship between Gu Kun and Zhu Youran, it continues to heat up, but since everyone is in a state of self-isolation farming, there is always a lack of an opportunity to ignite passion, so it is still in a state of indifferent cultivation.

……

Friday, 20 August, 1999.

Lin Ying, Shalanova, and Anastasia had just returned to Lanfang after graduation.

"Sarah, Anna, let's go to the old ...... tomorrow Boss there. Lin Ying casually proposed that she had subconsciously called her husband, but those two hairy girls had not been corrected by Gu Kun on the spot, so she could only change her words.

Of course, the hairy girls readily agreed: "Okay, but isn't the boss at home?

Lin Ying: "I called in advance, he has been inspecting Kuching in the past two days, it should be that the cross-sea bridge and other infrastructure projects over there have made progress, and Brother Kun is inspecting there." I heard that the copper mines and plantations he had invested in for the Malays before were also a little eyebrows, and tomorrow we will go together to try the new varieties of durian and coffee.

Alas, to say that Lan Fang has developed really fast in recent years, this time last year, I came back from summer vacation, and I could still take a plane from Guangdong to Kuching directly, and now Kuching Airport is about to close, and the flights to Guangdong have been cancelled, only to Kuala Lumpur and Li Jiapo. In a year or two, maybe the flights from Lijiapo in Kuala Lumpur will also be changed to Lanfang. ”

Lin Ying is still Malaysian in terms of nationality, and her parents are also local to Kuching, which is her hometown, so she is particularly sensitive to the gap between the construction of the two places.

"I don't know how expensive the new varieties of durian and coffee will be made by the boss, whether the Chinese can afford to buy them, if they can't afford it, they can only ask me to hype it up for the time being. ”

Everyone is actually a little uneasy in their hearts.
