Lin Cheng knows very well that the future situation, the Asian financial crisis is about to land in Xiangjiang, at this time to buy a luxury house in Xiangjiang is undoubtedly a stupid move, to buy until the financial crisis breaks out, a large number of rich people have suffered heavy casualties, then he can take advantage of the fire to rob and sell at a low price.

However, Lin Cheng knew that the rich people living in the Taiping Mountain Villa were all the top rich people in Xiangjiang, even if the financial crisis broke out, it would be difficult for them to lose a lot, Lin Cheng decided to buy a villa on the top of the Taiping Mountain after weighing it, anyway, he is not bad for money now, what is bad is just influence.

As long as he buys a big villa in Taiping Shan at a sky-high price, then he can shake the whole Hong Kong again, and maybe the domestic news will also be widely reported, which can greatly increase the value of the personal brand of "Lin Cheng".

In Lin Cheng's view, personal brand value can sometimes be more useful than the actual value of wealth, as long as Lin Cheng lives in Taipingshan Villa, then no one will see him as a vulgar nouveau riche.

There are many luxury villas in Xiangjiang, from Deep Water Bay, Repulse Bay, to Kadoorie Hill in Kowloon, to Taiping Mountain, all of which are luxury houses with noble locations and beautiful environments. But among them, the rarest and most personal identity is undoubtedly the Victoria Peak on Hong Kong Island.

When Lin Cheng first came to Xiangjiang, because of the influence of the Li Chaoren family and the Bao Yugang family living in the Peninsula villas in Repulse Bay, he always believed that the Peninsula villas in Repulse Bay were the most awesome villa areas in Xiangjiang.

But when he learned more about Xiangjiang and went deeper into Xiangjiang society, he realized that the most awesome villa area in Xiangjiang was not in Repulse Bay, but at the top of Taiping Mountain.

On top of the landscape, environment and history, the value of the hilltop mansion is best highlighted by its unusually rare supply. Due to planning and historical constraints, there are only dozens of villas and mansions in the area from The Peak Road to Pak Ka Road, so scarcity is expensive, and Victoria Peak Villas are better than Repulse Bay villas because of their scarcity.

Coupled with the fact that the villa is located on the top of a hill and overlooks the whole of Hong Kong, this is undoubtedly a very beautiful hint for the Chinese who believe in "going to the next level", symbolizing that they have reached the top of the Xiangjiang pyramid.

In the previous life, Ma Yun's feat of buying No. 22 Baijia Road on the top of Taiping Mountain with 1.5 billion yuan made the mainland tyrants flock to the villa on the top of Taiping Mountain.

……

Today is the first of September, and the weather is very good, with bright sunshine and clear skies.

At this time, two bulletproof BMWs were driving on the quieter road of Taiping Mountain, which was lined with lush greenery and verdant trees.

Ever since Huo Wenxi drove the bulletproof BMW to the road of Taiping Mountain, her excitement has always made her uneasy, and she trembles at the thought of the thunderous big people who live on this mountain.

Huo Wenxi is a native of Xiangjiang, she knows too well the meaning of Lin Cheng's intention to buy a property on the top of Taiping Mountain, for Xiangjiang people, being able to live on the top of Taiping Mountain means that he has become one of the ruling classes of Xiangjiang.

Taiping Peak Villa, this is the dream home that all Xiangjiang people work hard for and yearn for.

Moreover, Taipingshan is also very strict with the owners, even if there is money, they may not be able to buy everything, especially for those celebrities, it is a forbidden area.

In other wealthy areas of Xiangjiang, such as Deep Water Bay, Repulse Bay, Tsuen Wan, and Kadoorie Hill, you can see the top big stars in Hong Kong, but in Taiping Mountain, you will never see a big star.

The reason is simple, because if there are stars, there will be paparazzi, and the pervasive paparazzi will affect the lives of the owners here. The owners here are either rich or noble, and their status is a ruthless character who stomps on the Xiangjiang River, and how can they let these people from the lower ninth class disturb their tranquility and privacy.

That's right, the big stars in Xiangjiang are like mountains for ordinary people, but for the rich people living in Taiping Mountain, stars, movie stars, and singers are all low-class people, even Cheng Long, Zhou Dafa, and Liu Tianwang are no exception.

The vehicle drove slowly, and soon came to the bottom of a tall bungalow, and a sign was erected at the door, which read: Private place, there are vicious dogs inside.

Seeing this sign, there is no doubt that Lin Cheng and his entourage have come to Pak Ka Road on the top of Taiping Mountain, which is one of the most noble areas in Hong Kong, and is a gathering place for political and economic celebrities and wealthy people, including the official residence of the Chief Secretary for Administration of Hong Kong, the official residence of the US Imperialist Consul General in Hong Kong, and the official residence of the commander of the People's Liberation Army Hong Kong Garrison.

Lin Cheng's target is naturally No. 22 Baijia Road, which shocked the entire Chinese mainland when it was bought by Ma Yun for 1.5 billion Hong Kong dollars in 2015.

Before Ma Yun, the owner of No. 22 Baijia Road was Li Chaoren's military advisor Yuan Tianfan, but Yuan Tianfan bought No. 22 Baijia Road in 2000, and now the owner of Baijia Road is a white Belgian, and he also has a Chinese name named Li Wen, and his wife is Chinese.

Li Wen and his wife also attached great importance to this transaction, and in order to show their respect for Lin Cheng, they had come to the gate at this time and opened the main door to welcome Lin Cheng's arrival.

Before deciding on the transaction, Li Wen naturally made a detailed investigation into Lin Cheng's origin, after all, this is a huge transaction of more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars, and it is impossible not to be cautious.

The results of the investigation show that Lin Cheng was born in Qingjiang, a fourth-tier city in Chinese mainland, and his father Lin Furong is the richest man in Qingjiang, owning a real estate company and an industrial company, and the family has a lot of money.

Lin Cheng plunged into the financial market with 30 million Hong Kong dollars two months ago, and in just two months, he accurately foresaw the outbreak and process of the Southeast Asian financial crisis, during which he made a billion US dollars, and became a well-known wonder boy in Xiangjiang Street in one fell swoop.

This is a Chinese nouveau riche with great asset strength, and he is eager to quickly get rid of the reputation of the nouveau riche and increase his influence as quickly as possible in Xiangjiang and the mainland.

This is Li Wen's judgment of Lin Cheng, and he is ready to slaughter Lin Cheng.

Originally, with Lin Cheng's nouveau riche characteristics, Li Wen was difficult to say that he was satisfied with this potential buyer, but Li Wen was not a native of Xiangjiang, and after selling this villa, he would return to his home country Belgium to settle down, so he didn't care whether Lin Cheng met the requirements for living in Baijia Road, what he wanted was to make a lot of money as much as possible before leaving Xiangjiang.

For this point, he believes that Lin Cheng will meet his conditions, the reason is naturally very simple, that is, he has full confidence in the mansion on Bai Jia Road, and knows that the mansion on the top of the Taiping Peak has a huge special significance for the Chinese, and staying in the mansion on the top of the Taiping Peak means that you have become the ruling class of Xiangjiang, which is a more valuable intangible value than living comfortably.

Seeing Li Wen and his wife come down to greet him in person, Ma Han stopped the car at Lin Cheng's signal, Wang Chao and others got out of the car first, and then opened the car door for Lin Cheng and Huo Wenxi in turn.

When Li Wen and his wife saw that Lin Cheng had specially brought a female companion over, they seemed even happier, and immediately greeted them warmly.

"Hello, Mr. Lin Cheng!" Li Wen said in a very standard and fluent vernacular.

"Mr. Li Wen, I didn't expect you to be so fluent in Cantonese. Lin Cheng held Li Wen's hand and praised.

"Don't hide it from Lin Sheng, I have been working in Xiangjiang since 88, and it has been almost ten years now, and I can't do it if I am not fluent in Cantonese!" Li Wen said with a smile.

"Li Sheng, is this your wife? She looks so sexy!" Lin Cheng said as he looked at a tall woman with a tough face who was definitely not pretty in the eyes of the Orientals.

"Thank you Lin Sheng for the compliment, I also think she is beautiful and sexy. Li Wen said enthusiastically.

"Hello Lin Sheng, I'm Li Wen's wife Gigi Mak, it's a pleasure to meet you. Gigi Maki generously stretched out her palm and said.

"Hello Mrs. Li, I'm also very happy to know you, you are so beautiful. Lin Cheng held Gigi Maki's big hand and said hypocritically.

The aesthetics of Westerners are very different from those of Orientals, to be honest, Gigi Mai is also good-looking, just like Wendi Deng and Victoria's Secret supermodel Liu Wen, who married Murdoch in later generations, according to Lin Cheng's aesthetics, there can be at least sixty or seventy points.

But women like Gigi Maki, Wendi Deng, and Liu Wen are very lethal to Western men, and in their eyes, these hard-faced women in the East are far more beautiful than Fan Shuangbing , Zhang Baizhi and other Oriental standard beauties, just look at Li Wen's all-encompassing love for his wife Gigi Mai.

"Lin Sheng, is this beautiful young lady your girlfriend?" Gigi Mak looked at Huo Wenxi and asked.

In the case of outsiders, Lin Cheng still gave himself a woman's face, and he generously admitted: "That's right, this is my girlfriend Huo Wenxi." ”

When Huo Wenxi heard Lin Cheng say this, the smile on her face was as bright as a chrysanthemum, and she nodded: "Hello Mrs. Li, I am Lin Cheng's girlfriend Huo Wenxi." ”

After some introductions and greetings between the two sides, Li Wen said enthusiastically: "Lin Sheng, Miss Huo, today's sun is a little poisonous, why don't I take you to see the house first, and then discuss it in detail." ”

Lin Cheng nodded and said, "Guests are as they please, please trouble Li Sheng to be a guide." ”

Li Wen smiled: "I'm glad, Lin Sheng, please." ”

Under the leadership of Li Wen, Lin Cheng visited No. 22 Pak Ka Road, which was thunderous in later generations, and stepped into the main entrance of the hall, the first thing that caught his eye was the living and dining room with an area of more than 2,000 square feet, with a square design and an indoor height of about 4.5 meters, highlighting its wide sense of space and giving the owner greater creative freedom when decorating in the future.

At the end of the living and dining room is a large floor-to-ceiling glass curtain door, allowing residents to sit in the living room overlooking Victoria Harbour, while maximizing the amount of light and ventilation in the interior.

The second and third floors are four master bedrooms and eight guest rooms, each of which is over 100 square feet, and the master bedroom is even more than 200 square feet. On the top floor, there is a private swimming pool with a sky garden design, where residents can enjoy a wide view of Victoria Harbour while taking a dip.

After the visit, Lin Cheng had nothing to say, except that he was satisfied.
