Chapter 55: Do what you like

Xiao Sui, who came to Xiangjiang for the first time, was dazzled by the scene in front of him and didn't know what to do.

She could read all the stacks of English signs, but she didn't recognize any of them.

After shopping for two hours, Gu Ao's legs were sore, but Xiao Sui, who usually looked delicate and hadn't rested enough, was very energetic.

Sure enough, when a woman goes shopping, she is a different creature, especially a woman who has never been to Xiangjiang, and the first time she goes shopping is simply fanatical.

Even the female clerks at each counter were a little disgusted, so she gave up and asked Gu Biao blankly: "I want to find a brand with a light mature woman's temperament, don't want a little girl, what should I buy?"

Gu Biao is also very blind, Lao Tzu was a straight man in his previous life, and he wasted time by shopping blindly for two hours with you? Can you have a stronger sense of purpose?

Anyway, the question still has to be answered.

Gu Biao racked his brains to recall: It seems that the few young women who were occasionally in contact with in his previous life were very capable of getting things out, and they all liked Burberry?

It seems that because of Burberry's perfume fragrance, it is synonymous with "rich sexual experience" when you smell it.

And this brand is not too expensive comparatively.

"Burberry?" he suggested tentatively, "but I only know the brand, and you can figure out what style you like." ”

"Burberry...... It seems to be really appropriate, but it's not too expensive, it's still a British-style brand, and it's best to be a guest at Sir Shao's old-school Xiangjiang nobleman's mansion. Xiao Sui thought about it for a while, and felt that Gu Ao's choice was really appropriate.

She herself had already made this brand a key alternative.

If you really want to make a more unconventional French and Italian brand, maybe it will be expensive and not pleased.

Xiao Sui re-entered Burberry's counter, and the two female clerks who had been receiving her for a long time half an hour ago were obviously impatient.

Xiao Sui doesn't speak Cantonese, and he doesn't have a Hong Kong Pu accent, although the cheongsam on his body is of good grade, it has been carefully selected by the family, but after all, the style is very old. In all cases, you can see that she is from the mainland.

If it weren't for the handsome guy next to her in an elegant French suit, maybe the female clerk would have been a blast.

"I'm going to try this evening dress with a hoop neck and bare shoulders, and that matching trench coat. ”

Xiao Sui hesitated for a while, pointing to a dress that would expose her shoulders and a small half of her back, but it was protected by a tie on her chest. This style can fully highlight the snow-white and delicate skin, and the degree of nudity is easier for her to accept.

When you go out, wear a matching trench coat, even if it's just an open drape, to cover the back and shoulders, and the front can be tightly covered by the dress inside. So when you don't want to be seen, you can make sure that you don't want to be seen at all.

After all, Burberry's brand of mature and feminine style, other dresses are either open grooves or suspenders, and the aesthetics of mainlanders are too advanced to accept. Moreover, the evening dress with a dew ditch suspender is more for selling off the necklace, Xiao Sui doesn't have any good necklaces, and he doesn't want Gu Biao to spend more.

"Miss, this one is similar to the suspenders you just tried. The female clerk was a little unhappy.

However, with Gu Biao's strong support, the female clerk still went to get it.

Gu Biao didn't bother to pretend to be forced in front of the small citizens, and waited for another hour and a half with restraint, Xiao Sui finished picking out the whole body, and bought two bottles of Burberry perfume, and finally got the job done.

Xiao Sui is very careful, she tried Burberry's fragrance, and it is indeed very mature, which can make her disguise more realistic and cover up the flaws of the virgin fragrance.

Before leaving, Gu Biao also taught the female clerk to be a person for the sake of the other party's goodness: "Miss, don't you think it's stupid to see if the female customer has money or not to decide the service attitude? As long as she is beautiful enough, how can you have the confidence to think that no one will help her pay?"

The female clerk who piled up cosmetics to seven points retreated in shame.

……

The next day, the Shao Mansion in the middle of the Taiping Mountains.

A regular night banquet and dance.

The host of the banquet was Sir Shao Yifu, who was in high esteem, and invited the Governor of Hong Kong, MacLehose, and a bunch of wealthy people who also belonged to the Mingzhou Gang, such as Bao Yugang, the king of ships.

Sir Shao, Bao Yugang and other five or six top tycoons, all of whom were from Mingzhou before the liberation and did business in Hujiang when they were young. Therefore, this handful of wealthy businessmen will also have their own faction in Xiangjiang, and have their own systems with other Chao-Shangang gangs such as Li Real Estate.

The reason for the banquet was that Mai Du had just gone to the capital in the interior some time ago, and he had met the great man and probed the tone of the Chinese side.

Therefore, after coming back, a large number of billionaires with a net worth of tens of billions need to understand from the governor the investment risks in various fields in the future, what can still be touched in 18 years, and what should not be touched.

Madok had a banquet for the rich merchants almost every week. Last week it was the Chao Gang, and this week it was the Ming Gang.

In 1979, the attitude of the wealthy people in Hong Kong towards the mainland was stratified.

The middle class and the small rich generally look down on the majority. In particular, those who only rely on Hong Kong business to make money, cannot afford to open mainland factories, and are unlikely to receive dividends from opening up.

And the wealthy businessmen at the top level, because they already know that the post-97 New Territories will definitely not be able to escape the return, so they have begun to conditionally be kind to the mainland visitors who can speak, and they will definitely not be as arrogant as some mainland officials who do not want to attract investment from the mainland.

Besides, just like many of the top rich, they don't bother to pretend to be forced in front of the poor, that's what the nouveau riche do. They only pretend to be coercive in front of the second-class rich, and they are usually very polite.

(When Madow met with the great men in '79, he already knew that at most they would dare to fight the idea between sovereignty and land-use trusteeship.) When Thatcher came in '82, he gave up completely. The statement was not issued until 84 years, but the next two years were actually detailed negotiations and did not affect the backbone. )

This divergence of attitudes is not entirely to blame for the people of Hong Kong, but the whole world: the extreme poor and the top rich want more internationalization and cross-regional competition, while the middle class does not like it.

After all, the more open the world, the more expensive it means, "you can move your expenses to a lower cost place";

For the poorest, it means "at least being able to find a job to feed on";

For the middle class, it means that "I finally have a skill to sell for a little more expensive, and as a result, I have to compete with people from poorer areas who sell for less."

The process of globalization, in a word, is the process of the top rich uniting with the extreme poor to slaughter the middle class and divide the land, after squeezing 100 yuan of the bargaining space of the middle class, they take out dozens of them and distribute them to the extreme poor, and the rest of the rich people take it themselves.

Gu Biao took Xiao Sui and took a car from Lin Guodong to go all the way up the mountain. The car is just a Mercedes, which is not very high-end, but it is also the best equipped by Lin's office.

The invitation to the dinner party was also obtained by Gu Biao with a lot of hands. Specifically, he used the film and television copyright company he had on hand, as well as the name of Hanle Electronics.

Although the current book profits of these two companies are only in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, they are also one or two orders of magnitude short of the lowest-level wealthy businessmen who are qualified to attend tonight. However, Gu Biao has the privilege of bringing film and television back to the mainland, and he has a reputation as a pioneer in the electronic market, which can make people look up to it to some extent.

There are some things that you know about the people in the circle.

"Mr. Gu and Miss Xiao, right? The waitress at the door was very polite and pointed out the location of the cocktail hall to Gu Ao.

Gu Biao hugged Xiao Sui and naturally entered the scene.

Xiao Sui was a little nervous, he had never seen such a high-end scene. She could only lean closer, disguising herself as a female media person wrapped up in a wide range.

Not to mention, there are still a lot of such female companions at the cocktail party, many of them are second-tier female stars of TVB, but they are as quiet as quails when they come here.

"Don't be nervous, grab two glasses of champagne and slowly get the whole thing done. Gu Biao comforted Xiao Sui, then took the wine from the waiter on a tray and gave the young lady a glass.

Gu Biao has been trained in the Foreign Affairs Academy, and in the past two years, he is very good at recognizing people, and he doesn't have to know the name of the other party by exchanging business cards like other businessmen who come to make friends and know each other.

Just like the diplomatic reception at the embassy, there are basically no introductions to each other.

The top 100 richest people in Xiangjiang, what the photo looks like Gu Biao is imprinted in his mind, and he was trained in China before he came out. He can be as familiar as James Bond in the 007 movie, just go over and hug without a business card, and then call out the other party's name and preferences.

and hugged each other's shoulders, leaned to his ear and added a sentence of "Yo, why didn't you bring XXX today", instantly closing the distance. (See which lover the other party brought to the party, and then look at the joke and ask why not bring another lover)

As long as this kind of routine is used, even if the other party is not trained and doesn't know you at all, then you can only pretend to know you very well, and then chat a few words, and really feel that "I exchanged business cards too many people last time, so I can't remember that I recognize this person?".

Otherwise, maybe Gu Biao shouted a little louder, and the backyard would catch fire.

It only took less than 15 minutes, and Gu Biao met most of the people like a courtesan. On the contrary, Xiao Sui, who was supposed to play the role of a real courtesan, looked confused, and didn't help at all, but just used it as a ridicule material to make people judge their character.

"I didn't expect you to be so good at meeting new people, I thought you were as clumsy as making friends with a man as you were with a woman. Finally empty, Xiao Sui sighed.

"Just kidding, I'm from the Foreign Affairs Academy, if I know a newcomer, I have to rely on an intermediary to introduce me, I'm still a fart. Gu Biao's mouth was dry, and he drank the rest of the champagne in one gulp, "I don't usually do this because it's too brain-draining, and I have to do a lot of preparation homework in advance." Work is already so tiring, who is impatient to get off work and then use work skills to please girls. ”

Xiao Sui was speechless for a while: he is really a workaholic, and his serious attitude towards work has exceeded his instinctive natural desires......

After drinking to refresh himself, Gu Biao re-engaged in the secret observation like an eagle falcon.

He has already recognized the rich businessmen in Mingzhou tonight, and he only needs a chance to interject and talk about specific business.

After drinking and chatting with useless people for a full 40 minutes, he inadvertently skipped five steps by the charter boat king who was chatting with Sir Shao, and finally heard a few unwilling emotional dialogues:

"Baozi, you say that this is charity for the mainland, is it pleasing or not? Now that the above is so friendly to us Hong Kong capital, I have the heart to go back and donate to schools and hospitals, and I can't find a way. The last time you went back to Hujiang and talked to Mayor Peng, I heard that there was a turning point?"

"Sixth brother, I don't understand this matter, it is said that a penny should not be given away in vain, last time Mayor Peng was still cowardly with me, but he asked me to talk again next month, I really want to donate money to prevent us. The charter king sighed helplessly.

Gu Biao took the opportunity to go over and talk: "Yo, isn't this Boss Bao, you should be talking about donating 40 million yuan to build a state-owned foreign affairs hotel in Hujiang, right?

Lord Deng said at that time that this piece could be opened. He also asked Director Liang of the Municipal Tourism Bureau to open 414 to commercial use within half a year, and then accept foreign donations after summing up experience. This is also to make better use of your patriotism, so as not to waste planning? ”

When he opened his mouth, he was the inside story of the central government's policies and decision-making, and he really frightened the charter boat king, and even Sir Shao on the side was a little suspicious.

"This little ...... Comrade: Are you from the mainland?"

"Hujiang Xiangjiang runs at both ends and does a small business. Both of them are big shots, and they may not have heard of them - Hanle Electronics, Gu Biao. Gu Biao introduced himself without humility or arrogance.

The charter king doesn't care about the entertainment industry, so he hasn't heard of this company.

Gu Biao's game console company, after all, has just sold 400 units in Yueben.

In Xiangjiang, he only got the first pilot game hall before the visit, with only 20 seats, purely to gain exposure among young people, and he didn't expect to make money at all. Specifically, everything was entrusted to Lin Guodong, and a member of the gang club was found to help operate, and after the equipment money was recovered, just pay some money, and the rest will go to the gang.

Sir Shao thought about it for a long time because his industry was in the entertainment industry, and he finally remembered that there really seemed to be such a newcomer on the rivers and lakes.

"Listen to Gu Shao's accent, the northern taste is not heavy, are you from Hujiang?" Sir Shao narrowed his eyes and asked, his Chinese is still very standard, after all, Xiangjiang, who came to Xiangjiang in his 30s, developed a Wu accent when he was a teenager.

"There is only some business in Hujiang, and my ancestral home is Qiantang. ”

"Yo, the future is terrifying, we are still Wu Yue's fellow countrymen, I and Baozi are both from Mingzhou, you should know. Sir Shao smiled rudely, but no one would take the politeness of the rich man seriously.

It was the charter king, because the topic just now was related to his career, and he couldn't help but ask: "Gu Shao, in this kind of environment in the mainland, you can rise quickly within a year, is it a bit of a way? I heard that you are very familiar with Mayor Peng and Director Liang? 414, what is the story, you might as well talk about it."

Let me tell you the truth, after opening up Shekou half a year ago, I wanted to go back to the mainland to see, especially Hujiang, which I had worked hard since I was a child. But today's Hujiang is really broken, and there is not a single hotel that can accommodate people.

I took 40 million yuan and wanted to give it to the municipal government and donate to build a top hotel with property rights owned by the state, just to have a place to sleep and live comfortably when I returned to Hujiang. That's it, Mayor Peng doesn't dare to take the money, as if he will make a mistake, hehe. ”
