195 The Feast of the Garden
At this time, Ho Tung Garden, located at 75 Old Peak Road, once the 'No. 1 wealthy family in Hong Kong', was lively again.
If you want to say that the original mansions and wealthy families in Hong Kong lived, it must be the top of Victoria Peak, which used to be a gathering place for foreigners in Hong Kong, and even the original British government of Hong Kong ordered to prohibit Chinese from living on the top of the mountain.
The former founder of Ho Tung Garden, Ho Tung, was the first non-European person to be approved to live on the Peak, which is the most traditional residence of Hong Kong's rich, famous and dignitaries, and Ho Tung is also the first Chinese to start living in mansions on the Peak of Victoria Peak.
Li Feng is really famous for this mansion for a long time, and the most famous thing in the previous life is that the mansion was sold for 5.1 billion Hong Kong dollars together with the land and buildings in the later life, plus various taxes of almost 1.2 billion, a total of 6.3 billion Hong Kong dollars, which was the news that spread to the world at that time, after all, this value is also one of the most expensive mansions in the world.
Although Hong Kong has always been known for the world's most expensive real estate, after all, Hong Kong is too small and has a large population, and the Peak Road, where Ho Tung Garden is located, is known as the most expensive street in the world, in 2015 and 16, it was listed as the world's most expensive street for two consecutive years, surpassing the world-famous New York's Fifth Avenue and so on.
Ho Tung Garden covers an area of 120,000 square feet, almost 13,333 square meters, or more than 3 acres. In Hong Kong, especially in places like Peak Road, it is not an exaggeration to call such a mansion the 'first mansion', and those wealthy families in later generations have never heard of a family mansion with such a large area in a place like Peak Road.
……
Now this mansion is only left with He Shili, the current helmsman of the Hedong family, and his eldest daughter He Weijun live in it, after all, although this mansion is luxurious, but after all, it has gone through 70 years of wind and rain, and it still looks old, and young people don't like to live in such a house.
Naturally, most of the descendants of the He family have their own careers, and the descendants of the He Tung family are scattered all over the world and Hong Kong. For example, the famous Macau gambling king is from the He Dong family, the grandson of He Dong's younger brother, and now He Shili's nephew.
The banquet was held in the large garden of the He family, according to the configuration of the mansion, basically the construction area and green area are about 1:1, that is to say, the construction area of He Dong Garden can reach 60,000 square feet, that is, more than 6,000 square meters.
Of course, the real mansion is basically less than 1:1, after all, the rich are not bad for money, mainly for the comfort of living, and the green area is naturally higher.
Li Feng's hotel is in Admiralty, which is also part of Central, and Central to Victoria Peak is connected by the old Peak Road, and it is not far to reach Ho Tung Garden, and it didn't take long to reach the destination of this trip.
Just as Li Feng and his entourage arrived at He Dong Garden, a group of wealthy dignitaries from all over the world gathered in a room in the main residence of He Dong Garden.
……
"Ladies and gentlemen, my old superior has arrived, and the fast-rising new Chinese-American super-rich man has also arrived. ”
The old man He Shili, who had been sitting in a wheelchair for most of the time, stood up tremblingly at this time, and at the same time, the two juniors of the He family immediately walked to his side to support him, and at the same time, the old man Lu Zhengcao from the mainland also walked to his side.
Although Old Man Lu is also in his 90s, his body is very tough, but there is still a middle-aged man beside him to support him. Lu Lao lived to the end of the new century, lived to be 106 years old, and is definitely one of the representatives of long-lived figures.
Behind the two old men He and Lu were followed by a group of old men, most of whom were rich people from all over the world who were about to wait, although many of the rising rich people had more wealth than the He Dong family in front of them, but they still walked behind the two old men. For example, the two old men were followed by the famous Xiangjiang Shuangli family, Shuangguo family, Macau gambling king, Fok Yingdong, the legendary red capitalist and a large number of rich and celebrities.
At this time, Li Feng and his entourage also stood in front of the door number of He Dong Garden under the instructions of the reception staff, looking at the erected Chinese-style archway, but there were words written in English on it 'He Dong Garden', which felt nondescript, and witnessed the combination of Chinese and foreign cultures.
At this time, the area around the Peak Road of Ho Tung Garden has been under martial law by the Hong Kong government, and from time to time you can see Hong Kong police officers wearing police uniforms and walkie-talkies.
Just as Li Feng was chatting with Mr. Zhang's family, he saw a group of people walking towards his group under the leadership of the two old men.
It's a pity that Li Feng doesn't know him either, but he can walk in front of everyone and walk with the old man He Shili, and I think it is also a big man.
……
Li Feng and his entourage also walked directly towards the comer, and at this time, Li Feng found that the old man He Shili and the old man who had seen him beside him before walked to the old man Zhang with an excited face, and then the three of them laughed and supported each other.
Watching the scene of the three old men supporting each other and laughing, Li Feng felt for a while, no matter what their evaluation is, seeing the scene of such a gathering after at least one jiazi separation, as long as there is still a little emotion, people will be full of emotion.
"Come, Xiao Feng, let me introduce you to an old friend. Just when everyone was feeling emotional, Old Man Zhang smiled and waved to Li Feng who was standing aside.
"Old man, don't worry, there is time, let's go in first. Li Feng then walked forward with a smile and said, and at the same time nodded to everyone, but after a slight turn of his eyes, he saw many familiar faces in his previous life.
For example, Li Ka-shing, who is known as Superman, Lee Shau-kee, who is known as the fourth uncle, Ho Hongsang, who is known as the gambling king, etc., but I only know these most familiar ones, and many of them feel familiar, but they can't be named all of a sudden.
Naturally, I also saw Mr. Zhou Bei and Ms. Chen Fang from the Hong Kong government when I first arrived in Hong Kong.
"It doesn't matter, this is my old subordinate and adjutant Lu Zhengcao, who later became the founding general of the mainland government of China, but he is famous. Old Man Zhang didn't listen to Li Feng's words, but still helped Li Feng to introduce him.
The old man knew Li Feng's thoughts, so he directly helped Li Feng introduce him, which can be regarded as a contribution to Li Feng.
……
"General Lu, hello, I'm very sorry I didn't recognize you, I've heard a lot of your name, whether it's from Old Man Zhang's mouth, history books or film and television works. Hearing Old Man Zhang's introduction, Li Feng hurriedly shook his hand and said.
No way, this is Lu Zhengcao, the founding general, although Old Man Zhang had already greeted Li Feng before, but when he really saw it, Li Feng was still very excited.
This is different from those celebrities and dignitaries seen in the US imperialists, and it always feels a little different. Although Old Man Lu had doubts about Li Feng's enthusiasm, he quickly chatted happily, and at the same time introduced it to everyone around him.
As everyone introduced each other as they walked, Li Feng really felt a burst of feelings, it was really a feast for the rich, celebrities and dignitaries.
I didn't feel anything when I was in the United States, after all, few of those rich people knew or even heard of Li Feng in their previous lives, yes, I heard of a small number of people when the United States imperialists went to the party, so the feeling was not deep.
With the introduction here, most people have heard of Li Feng in their previous lives, and many of them are even familiar, so they are naturally more touched.
Whether it is the old family in Hong Kong, such as the He family, the Li family, the Kadoorie family, etc., or the Shuangli family, the Shuangguo family, the branch of the He family, the Macau gambling king, the Bao family, the Huo family, etc., these previous lives were all rumored on the Internet The family members were displayed in front of Li Feng's eyes, making Li Feng dizzying.
Similarly, in addition to these wealthy families who are about to tremble when they stomp their feet on Hong Kong's economy, there are also political celebrities from all walks of life, such as the last governor of Hong Kong, and the top leaders of major government departments, and even the Tung family, who will take over as chief executive next.
……
This group of people is the most heavyweight group of people in Hong Kong today, as for many rich and famous people in their previous lives and later, they may be watching Li Feng and his party not far away at this time.
In fact, it has also become the center of the entire banquet since the appearance of this group of old guys, and with Li Feng and Old Man Zhang and the three of them together, it has naturally become the center of the banquet.
Especially after seeing Li Feng's figure, Li Feng also attracted the attention of many people, especially those young people, after all, Li Feng's achievements are no strangers to these people now, and the public information has been placed on their desks, and they can't become the target of others.
