Chapter 139: Jockey Club (First Update!Thank you to Edgeworth for pointing to the sky, I'm here to pretend to be a reward!)

In the morning, people are always spiritual.

After all, as soon as you wake up, your physical strength will naturally recover well.

However, Wang Chen, who had just come to the living room, had two dark circles under his eyes, and his legs trembled slightly.

Young Master Xu, who happened to be wearing pajamas, walked out, and when he saw this, he said in surprise: "Xiao Wang, what's the matter with you? We were about the same number last night, why do you have such a tone? ”

Wang Chen, who was hollowed out, couldn't do it, waved his hand and said, "Don't mention it, don't mention it, you can't bear the two of them." ”

Young Master Xu understood as soon as he heard it, and showed a dirty smile, "Hehe, how is it?

It must feel different!

First of all, people are high stars in everyone's eyes, and there is a strange sense of conquest when playing, and secondly, the technical level is not the same, anyway, Wang Chen is the first time to enjoy such good treatment.

The two chatted a little.

Young Master Xu stretched his waist and said, "You prepare the night pearl and rubies, and we will go out to Hong Kong later." ”

"Go to Hong Kong?" Wang Chen blinked: "But I don't have a Hong Kong and Macao pass." ”

"Hey, that's easy, I'll take care of it. Young Master Xu said.

Wang Chen suddenly thought of his promise to Zhao Liyi, and said a little embarrassed: "Can you take Zhao Liyi with you?"

Young Master Xu said speechlessly: "You won't like her, will you?" Speaking of this, he glanced in the direction of the room on the west side, made sure that no one came out, and continued in a low voice, "As a brother, remind you, this kind of woman plays and plays, don't be emotional, otherwise you will die a miserable death!"

Sweat.

Dude is not emotional, right?

After thinking about it, Wang Chen still explained: "No, she took the initiative to follow me." ”

Young Master Xu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said: "Okay, Xiao Wang, you conquered people overnight?

The two laughed a little.

Subsequently, Young Master Xu called people to send Lin Jiajia and Zhou Qiuyu away.

……

Hong Kong.

After Young Master Xu's operation, Wang Chen naturally came to Hong Kong from the regular channel, even if he arrived in Hong Kong, he still didn't know how Young Master Xu did not need a Hong Kong and Macao pass to bring himself over.

However, Wang Chen knew that the other party was indeed capable, so he didn't ask much.

They disembarked at the Wan Chai Pass, got into the car sent by Yang Long, and headed all the way to Causeway Bay.

In a short time, the crowd came to their destination.

Wang Chen, who was sitting in the back, looked over curiously and said in surprise: "Jockey Club?"

Zhao Liyi seemed to know something, "This is the headquarters building, and next to it is the racecourse." ”

Young Master Xu yawned and said, "Today Wednesday, there is a horse race, it is estimated that Brother Yang and they are all waiting here, okay, let's go down." ”

A group of three people got out of the car.

When I came to the front desk, a very flamboyant-looking female staff member stepped forward and asked, "Hello Mr. and Madam, is there anything I can serve you?"

Young Master Xu reported his name.

The female staff immediately typed on the computer, then raised her head and said with a smile: "Dear Mr. Xu, you are a member of our Jockey Club, please do it." ”

Two twenty-two-three-year-old young men ran over to help Wang Chen carry his bag, and his attitude was very affectionate.

Rao is a popular star, Zhao Liyi couldn't help but show nervousness at this moment, she grabbed Wang Chen's sleeve and said enviously: "If only I could become a member of the Hong Kong Jockey Club like Young Master Xu." ”

Wang Chen didn't quite understand, so he said casually: "Is it unusual to select members?"

"Strange, not just strange!" Zhao Liyi said with admiration on his face: "Not to mention the selection of members, even the horse racing membership of the Jockey Club is difficult to obtain, the world's top private club." ”

Yes?

Isn't the Jockey Club gambling?

How did it become the world's top private club?

Wang Chen was very curious and asked, "What do you say?"

Zhao Li explained in detail, which roughly means that the Hong Kong Jockey Club has only 25,000 members so far, and in order to become the lowest racing member, it must be nominated by at least one honorary director, honorary Voting Member or Selecting Member, and another honorary director who has settled in Hong Kong. Honorary Election Members or Election Members with at least three members are a high threshold, considering that there are only about 200 Club Members, and each person can only recommend a maximum of one full-fee member and five racing members per year, and applicants must list three Club members who are ready to support their application for membership, so being a Club member is definitely a status symbol.

And the selection of members is a symbol of status!

Among them, Li Ka-shing, Stanley Ho and other super-rich people are also honorary members of the Club, so you can imagine how heavy the weight is.

After listening to the introduction, Wang Chen understood, and he asked, "Then what kind of member are you?"

Zhao Li smiled bitterly, "I'm not a member, not even a horse racing member." ”

No, you're a big star.

How is it possible that you are not even the most upscale horse racing member?

Wang Chen immediately thought about it, it is very understandable that Zhao Liyi is not a member of the Jockey Club, it is nothing more than no one recommends it, the person who can become a member of the Hong Kong Jockey Club, which is not a super boss who holds power or is rich, and celebrities are really nothing to these real bigwigs, naturally, it is normal for Zhao Liyi to be recommended by no one to join the Jockey Club.

……

Inside.

1 private room.

It's not so much a private room as a super luxurious room.

After Wang Chen walked in, he saw Yang Long, Zhang Liang, Liu Wei and Zheng Gang sipping tea, and he stepped forward to say hello.

The four of them exchanged a few words with him and Young Master Xu, but as for Zhao Liyi, they were directly ignored by them.

Sitting down on the sofa, Zheng Gang said a little impatiently: "Xiao Wang, quickly take out the Night Pearl and the Pigeon's Blood Ruby and let us have a look." ”

Yang Long smiled: "Look at your impatience, let Chen Zai and Hao Zai breathe a sigh of relief first." ”

If you come by car, you won't be tired.

Wang Chen smiled and said, "After sitting for a while, my breath has eased, okay, I'll take out the things first." ”

Everyone looked at it intently.

Zhao Liyi, who relied on Wang Chen's side, was naturally no exception.

Wang Chen unhurriedly took out two identical boxes from his bag, and then opened one of them casually, because the boxes were exactly the same, and in fact, he didn't know which one contained what.

When it is opened, a bright and intense color that can almost be called crimson appears, and its red color is not only pure, saturated, and bright, but also gives people a strong feeling of "burning fire" and "flowing blood".

"Yo, what a big ruby. Young Master Xu said in surprise.

Everyone didn't get started, staring at it, Liu Wei was full of praise and said: "It's rare to see a ruby like this, generally speaking, rubies that exceed two carats are rare, and it's even more difficult to find a pigeon blood without any impurities." ”

"Although I don't know if it's true or not, this gem gives me a thrilling sense of beauty. Zheng Gang also said with joy on his face.

Wang Chen wanted to say something, but suddenly found that Zhao Li, who was sitting on the side, was about to have little stars in one or two eyes, so you can imagine how much she loves this pigeon's blood ruby.

They discussed the ruby for a while.

"It's almost over ten carats. ”

"yes, such a big piece is worth a lot!"

"I just can't be sure if it's true or not, otherwise I would have wanted to spend money to buy it. ”

A few minutes later, everyone who saw the baby was satisfied.

When Wang Chen closed the box, only Zhao Liyi still seemed reluctant.

After reading the rubies, the confidence of the five bigwigs in Wang Chen's collection of treasures rose, and Young Master Xu raised his chin, "Xiao Wang, hurry up and let us take a look at the Night Pearl." ”

"Yes, yes. Yang Long's eyes were eager.

"Good. Wang Chen reached out and opened another box.

A bright green bead appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

At first glance, it just feels that the color is very good, and it does not cause the strong visual impact of the pigeon's blood ruby.

Zheng Gang hesitated: "It doesn't seem to be anything special." ”

Liu Wei frowned and said: "No, the Night Pearl can be appreciated like this, since it is called the Night Pearl, it must be seen in a dark environment, let's turn off the lights." ”

Zhao Liyi volunteered: "I'll turn off the lights." ”

Wang Chen sat still and let Zhao Li turn off the lights.

Let's click, let's click.

All the lights in the house were turned off.

The beads, which were ordinary before, instantly bloomed with a faint light, which was different from the dazzling light, which was very soft, and different from the splendor of the neon lights, giving people a sense of purity and immaculateness.

To tell the truth, even Wang Chen, the owner of the Night Pearl, is watching the Night Pearl for the first time in a dark environment.

Everyone was watching, and Zhao Li exclaimed in the dark, "My God! It can really shine, and the most important thing is that this green light is full of magic, which makes me feel the urge to hold it in the palm of my hand!"

The green light reflected on Young Master Xu's face, looking a little panicked, and he opened his mouth slightly and said, "This ...... This is by no means the light that fluorite can emit, the color is so pure, so pure that only green remains!"

Liu Wei and the others also whispered.

"What a pearl of the night!"

"I just don't know what the material is!"

"If it's really a meteorite night pearl, hiss...... That's a lot of value!"

The crowd was talking.

There was a knock on the door.

Young Master Xu immediately spoke: "Turn on the lights." ”

Zhao Liyi, who was standing next to the switch, immediately turned on the light.

Wang Chen knew that someone was coming and put away the two things.

Then, Zhao Li opened the door.

I saw three or four people standing outside the door, led by a man in his sixties with gray hair in spirit, and a man in his forties and a woman in his thirties standing behind him.

The old man took the lead and laughed: "I heard that Zhang Sheng, Liu Sheng, Zheng Sheng, Hao Zai and Long Zai came together, and I came to pay a visit." ”

Well?

Hearing this, Wang Chen was stunned.

According to his understanding of several bigwigs, it stands to reason that Liu Wei and Zheng Gang should belong to the first class, after all, these two are already the actual leaders of their respective companies, and there is nothing wrong with using the Hong Kong honorific title "Sheng", which can be seen from the title of the old man, Young Master Xu and Yang Long are called "Aberdeen", which is obviously a title for juniors.

Although Zhang Liang is the son of Fuli Co-Chairman, it stands to reason that he is about the same as Yang Long in terms of identity, not as good as Liu Wei and Zheng Gang, why does the old man respect Zhang Liang so much, and he doesn't say "Sheng", and puts the title first?

Could it be that this Zhang Liang has any hidden identity?

Wang Chen didn't understand a little, just watched everyone communicate.

Young Master Xu, Liu Wei, Zheng Gang and others all stepped forward to greet the old man who had just arrived.

From their words, Wang Chen knew that the old man was the vice chairman of the Jockey Club's board of directors, surnamed Zhou, and another man in his forties was surnamed Huang, a member of the Club's board of directors.

After chatting for a few words, Deputy Dong Zhou looked at Wang Chen, "Who is this?"

Wang Chen saw it clearly, and Young Master Xu glanced at Zhang Liang.

Zhang Liang understood and answered: "His name is Wang Chen, he is my best friend, I have admired the Jockey Club for a long time, but he has been delayed in getting started, and today I specially came to take him to see." ”

As soon as he heard that it was Zhang Liang's close friend, Deputy Director Zhou pretended to be concerned and said, "Chenzai, haven't you been to the Jockey Club before?"

Others will definitely have to reply to Wang Chen, otherwise it would be rude, he hurriedly said: "Hello Dong Chou, this is the first time I have come to the Jockey Club, and I have never had the opportunity to come before." ”

"Hehe, too. Director Huang nodded and said, "If you want to go into the Jockey Club to find out, you have to have a membership belt." He frowned, "It's okay when it's convenient for Zhang Sheng, if Zhang Sheng is busy, it's inconvenient for you to come to our Jockey Club." ”

Wang Chen just wanted to say that buddies are fine, don't come to the club.

Vice Chairman Zhou snatched the conversation again, "Eh, in my opinion, why don't you get a horse racing member for Chenzai first, and then become a full-fee member after Zhang Sheng and Liu Sheng recommend them in the coming year?"

Uh, what about you two singing?

Just give me a horse racing membership?

This is a good thing, a good thing that many people can't ask for!

Wang Chen heard Zhao Liyi say just now that there are only 25,000 horse racing members in the world's seven billion people, and there are only 25,000 horse racing members in the Jockey Club, which can be imagined and precious, and he wants this quota in his heart, but he doesn't know the opinions of a few bigwigs, so he has to look at Zhang Liang, Liu Wei and Young Master Xu.

Zhang Liang didn't look at Wang Chen at all, and said with a smile: "Then I will thank Dong Chou a lot." ”

Deputy Dong Zhou didn't know if he was modest, and said again and again: "Don't dare, Zhang Sheng is serious, you will go through the process and write a recommendation form for him later, I will review it, if there is no problem, Chen Zai will be the new horse racing member of our Jockey Club." ”

Young Master Xu reminded: "Xiao Wang, hurry up and thank you Dong Zhou and Director Huang." ”

Only then did Wang Chen react, "Thank you, Chairman Chou and Director Huang." ”

"It's fine. ”

"It's a small thing. ”

Neither of them took it too seriously.

They didn't leave, they sat down on the sofa, and pulled Young Master Xu and the other five bigwigs to chat.

Wang Chen couldn't interject, so he had to lower his voice and ask Zhao Li: "What is a full-fee member?"

"Big brother, it's so easy for you to come as a horse racing member. Zhao Li was envious, and then explained: "The Jockey Club is divided into three levels of members, the most common is the horse racing members, horse racing members can only go to watch the race on the day of the horse race and use the members-only room facilities, the catering services and other facilities are limited, the full fee members are different, and they can enjoy all the facilities of the clubs at any time, including catering, Fitness and vacation, etc., generally after applying for horse racing membership can only be obtained through the application for full-fee membership again, like your words, they say that it is said that it is next year, in fact, there is more than a month this year, that is to say, as long as Mr. Zhang and Mr. Liu are willing to recommend after more than a month, you can become a full-fee member of the Jockey Club, as for the highest selection member, I don't know how it was born. ”

Wang Chen smiled: "You know a lot. ”

Zhao Li sighed and said, "I'm from Vanity Fair, how can I not know some details about the world's top Vanity Fair like the Jockey Club?"

That's just as well.

It's normal for celebrities to chase fame and fortune.

However, Wang Chen still felt a little regretful and said: "According to what you say, horse racing members are not much use. ”

"What do you mean it's not a big bird?" Zhao Li couldn't help but laugh and said, "Do you know how many people in the world can't grab this qualification when they break their heads, and you still dislike it?" she explained helplessly.

Wang Chen listened carefully and gradually understood what advantages horse racing members had in addition to the small amount.

To be precise, the membership of the Jockey Club has always been regarded as a status symbol of the upper class, in addition to a lot of income, it also needs to have a fairly high social status, like Zhao Liyi, a popular actress, is still not qualified, the reason why Wang Chen can become a member of horse racing is obviously that Deputy Director Zhou and Director Huang look at Zhang Liang's face.

As for what kind of terrifying identity Zhang Liang hides behind him in addition to Fuli Group, Wang Chen does not know.

But he knew one thing from Zhao Li's mouth.

The world's top private club, such as the Jockey Club, is not just a place for the elite to spend a lot of money and luxury, but also a place of wealth and power, where these elites mingle and socialize, and many world-changing solutions and methods are based on them, such as starting a war or raising hundreds of millions of dollars for charity in a disaster area.

Therefore, when a person has a club membership like the Jockey Club, more important than the high-end enjoyment and first-class service they provide to members, they provide an opportunity to participate in the top social network, and open up a path to the top for themselves!

Even if Wang Chen didn't understand why Zhang Liang and others wanted to help him become a member of the Club, he knew that his opportunity to take off had come.

The Jockey Club is full of people with heads and faces!

If you get in touch, how many top high-quality customers can you discover!

Well, Wang Chen's contact level is relatively low, and his first reaction is not how many top contacts he can expand, but thinking about tapping potential customers.

But in any case, this time he can become a member of the Club, which is a chance to reach the sky!

Because, the members of the Jockey Club cannot be bought even if they have money!

While they were talking, a woman in her thirties who followed Vice Dong Zhou stepped forward and said, "Wang Sheng, please fill out the application form." ”

"Thank you. Wang Chen took the paper and pen, all the words written on it were traditional characters, he could barely understand them, and filled in his name and identity.

After writing it, the woman took the application form and asked Zhang Liang and others to sign it.

The filling speed was very fast, and after about ten minutes, the woman went out.

Wang Chen continued to chat with Zhao Liyi.

After another ten minutes, the woman walked in from outside and found Wang Chen again, "Wang Sheng, the Jockey Club has approved your membership application." ”

"Huh, so fast?" Wang Chen was a little confused.

The woman didn't answer his question, but said with a smile: "You have to pay a membership fee to join the club, do you have any opinions?"

Membership fees?

In Wang Chen's impression, the entrance fee of the top club is a few million, in order to be able to join this vanity fair, he felt that it was worth spending millions, so he did not hesitate to say: "Okay, how much?"

The woman said, "150,000 Hong Kong dollars." ”

"How much" Wang Chen thought he had misheard, "150,000 Hong Kong dollars?"

The woman thought he was too much, so she hurriedly explained: "Wang Sheng, listen to me, whoever becomes a member of the Jockey Club has to pay an entrance fee of 150,000 Hong Kong dollars, even if Mr. Li Ka-shing comes, of course, he is our honorary selection member, and will not become a member of the horse racing again." ”

After hearing that it was indeed 150,000 Hong Kong dollars, Wang Chenxin said that it was really cheap, and said: "I don't have Hong Kong dollars, can I swipe my bank card in the mainland?"

"As long as it has the UnionPay logo, it's fine. "The woman was very polite.

Wang Chen swiped his card and paid 150,000 Hong Kong dollars worth RMB.

The woman then gave him a membership card, detailing some of the basic rules, such as that Club members should not use foul language or litter, and that the pool should not "run, push, play or splash hard". There is also a dress code for members entering different venues, and sleeveless T-shirts, shorts and slippers that are not over the knee are generally allowed.

In the past, the Jockey Club also required a bow tie or tie, which is now looser and not required except for access to the directors' quarters.

If a member violates the rules, they will be punished.

Wang Chen listened very carefully, and was secretly excited in his heart, buddy has actually become a member of the world's top private club, the Hong Kong Jockey Club, if this is spread, how many people will be envious?!
