Chapter 69 (Repair) Mid-Levels Mansion Night Banquet
In addition to these professional gear processing machine tools, Yang Weiping also saw various coordinate boring machines, thread grinders, worm grinders, gear grinders, optical grinders, high-precision garden grinders, high-precision hob grinders, high-precision thread lathes and other high-precision machine tools in the transmission processing workshop.
As the core component of the mid-to-high-end transmission bicycle, the design and quality of the transmission directly determine the grade of the bicycle.
After perfecting the various technological processes of the 18-speed transmission, Yang Weiping handed over the design of the transmission for different purposes of mountain bikes to the technical team led by Cook Woods.
In order for Hong Kong Giant Bicycle Co., Ltd. to maintain its leading position in the new era of cycling, it must have sufficient technical reserves.
Therefore, in addition to the production of 18-speed transmissions for mountain bikes, the current transmission workshop is also developing and verifying 21-speed, 24-speed, 27-speed, 30-speed and other series of bicycle transmissions.
With first-class equipment, coupled with first-class technicians, supplemented by the most scientific and reasonable technological process, strict quality management system, various types of transmission gear processing is naturally not a difficult task.
Solving the possible quality hazards of the two core components of the frame and transmission, Yang Weiping can also be the shopkeeper of the bicycle factory, because he believes that Hughes Field will be more nervous about product quality than him in the next few days, and he will definitely keep an eye on it.
After the inspection of the various parts processing workshops, Hughes Field specially prepared a reception for Yang Weiping, and the venue was chosen at Hughes Field's luxurious sea-view villa on Peak Road.
Yang Weiping was not very interested in this kind of social activity, but he couldn't bear Hughes Field's kindness, so he could only nod and agree.
Hong Kong has little land, and there are only a handful of precious luxury residential land in the central area, and money has become a secondary consideration in order to spend a lot of money to get the favors of your heart.
For Hong Kong, where every inch of land is expensive, luxury homes are expensive because they are located in the middle of the mountain.
In fact, looking at the world, mountain villas have always been a concentration camp for the rich. Chinese and foreign architects and villa collectors believe that the mountain is the best ecological environment for the growth of villas. Because in the eyes of the villa builder, only the mountain can truly meet the ecological conditions of the villa's existence, can the scattered architectural layout be realized, can there be a rich and changeable visual composition, there is openness and smoothness when looking down, there can be the supreme artistic conception of leaving the dust, and can attract the noble owner to come.
The Mid-Levels of Hong Kong Island are interesting because the "Caine Road" stretches all the way westward, renamed the "Bonham Road", which cuts the upper and lower levels in half. Above are typical affluent areas: Park Road, Robinson Road, Po Shan Road, Bagington Road, Woo Wo Road, Lettiton Road...... Below is the traditional old residential area on Hong Kong Island, what is the first street, second street, third street, high street, and main street, and the foreign street names above, the price difference is heaven and earth.
Although there is no strict definition of luxury housing in Hong Kong, there is still a clear scale in the hearts of industry insiders: the definition of luxury housing can be divided into two categories: traditional luxury housing and emerging luxury housing. "Location" is the primary criterion for "traditional luxury homes", such as The Peak, Repulse Bay, Stanley, Mid-levels Central, Shek O, Ho Man Tin Hill in Kowloon and Kau To Shan in Sha Tin.
For a long time, the high-quality properties in these places have been the places of choice for dignitaries and prominent celebrities. The concept of "luxury homes" means that these units have a transaction value of more than 10 million yuan, and they have beautiful landscapes, mountains and seas, and are mainly low-density.
Hong Kong Mid-Levels luxury homes have always been famous, mainly referring to the property areas around the mountain below the "fog line" on Hong Kong Island, including Caine Road, Old Peak Road, Robinson Road, etc., which are close to the core area of Central, "Mid-levels Central" and "Mid-levels West" are the most rare. In recent years, many investors have abandoned traditional top-tier luxury properties such as hilltop villas and detached houses in favor of multi-level luxury properties in Mid-Levels. …,
Comparatively, the humidity of mid-levels mansions is not as heavy as that at the top of the mountain, and the strata mansions usually have a strict security monitoring system, which is more secure. Moreover, these locations usually have a well-established network of prestigious schools, creating excellent conditions for the growth of the next generation. As a result, duplex units and penthouses in mid-levels luxury homes have been particularly popular.
Hughes Field's villa is a townhouse in typical European style, located in the middle of Victoria Peak Road. Spanning approximately 350 square metres, the villa's floor-to-ceiling windows offer sweeping views of Hong Kong's city skyline and hillside subtropical forests.
With a spacious and well-laid out living, dining and family room, the villa is perfect for entertaining guests. The living room opens onto a tiled garden area, perfect for barbecues and alfresco dining. Its high ceilings and large balconies accentuate the colonial style.
Standing on the balcony on the second floor, with a construction area of nearly 40 square meters, Yang Weiping looked at the lights of thousands of homes under the mountain, and Gujing Bubo's mood suddenly fluctuated.
It's time for Sister Fang and Xiaotong to settle down in Hong Kong, and letting their mother and daughter live in the dormitory building of the smelter with him is not a long-term solution.
This reception was a private banquet hosted by Hughes Field, and most of the people who came were business celebrities and dignitaries with whom he had a good personal relationship, including officers of the British Army stationed in Hong Kong.
Yang Weiping has never been interested in this kind of social entertainment, after entering the villa, in addition to nodding politely and shaking hands with a few officials of the British government in Hong Kong introduced to him by Hughes Field, and politely saying a few words, and then took Qiu Fang to the balcony on the second floor to hide.
"Wei Ping, you don't actually have to worry about me, I can stay here alone, the guests below are all leading figures in Hong Kong's business and political circles, you should take this opportunity to contact them more, multiple friends and multiple roads. Qiu Fang held a glass of juice in her hand, stood beside Yang Weiping, looked at him sideways, and said faintly.
"Sister Fang, what do you think of the environment here?" Yang Weiping withdrew his gaze, turned his face to look at the Yiren beside him, and asked a question that was not in tune with the topic she had just had.
Qiu Fang's dress is still the professional women's clothes during the day, and under the cold moonlight, there is another kind of coldness that rejects the iceberg beauty thousands of miles away.
On the way here, Yang Weiping wanted to buy her a set of evening dresses, but when she arrived at the store, Qiu Fang saw that those evening dresses were all bare-chested and barebacked, and she refused to ask for anything, not even to try them on.
"It's beautiful, it's elegant. Qiu Fang replied softly.
"Such a beautiful night scene, if I don't enjoy it, but waste time chatting with those celebrities and rich gentry downstairs with hypocritical smiles on their faces to talk about some gossip without any nutrition, I am not so stupid!" Yang Weiping smiled and said: "I think it is the best enjoyment to be able to enjoy the beautiful scenery here alone with you." ”
Entering the deep affection in Yang Weiping's eyes, Qiu Fang couldn't help but panic in her heart, and quickly turned her face away, and inadvertently saw a pine tree downstairs, and a couple of men and women were hugging and kissing there, and they were suddenly shocked and ashamed, but fortunately, they reached out in time to cover their mouths, so they didn't cry out.
Seeing her like this, Yang Weiping couldn't help but follow her line of sight to look down, just to see the pair of white men and women kissing passionately under the pine tree moving more and more, one of the woman's long legs was wrapped around the waist of the male partner, and the high-cut skirt of the black evening dress completely exposed the slender jade legs, and one of the man's hands was reaching out on the woman's half-naked buttocks and caressing them all the time......
"Hehe, ghosts are like this, there's nothing to make a fuss about. Yang Weiping smiled indifferently, reached out and held Qiu Fang's jade hand that covered her small mouth, put it down gently, and walked slowly over with the beach chair she placed on the balcony. …,
Qiu Fang struggled slightly, but did not break free, so he could only let him sit down on a beach chair.
Yang Weiping held her hand, sat down on another beach chair side by side, looked up at the starry sky, and said, "Sister Fang, in this life, I will never be a cowherd and a weaver girl with you again!"
Qiu Fang's heart shook suddenly, remembering what he said to her last time, she was his woman in her last life, especially when he said that she knew that she was still the eldest daughter of Huanghua, she felt like a deer was jumping around in Fang's heart, and couldn't help but ask: "Do people really have a previous life......
"I don't know about others, but we two, I'm sure, there is!" Yang Weiping grabbed her hand tightly, as if he was afraid that if he relaxed a little, she would immediately run away from his eyes and disappear.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps at the balcony door, and then Hughes Field appeared on the balcony with a white man in his forties.
Qiu Fang saw that an outsider was coming, so frightened that she quickly withdrew her hand, and turned her head to look at him in a panic, as if a child who had done something wrong was suddenly caught by an adult.
"Yang, hahaha, I didn't bother you with a good thing!" Hughes Field walked towards Yang Weiping with a smile as he walked.
Damn! Lao Tzu's good deeds have all been disturbed by you's karma! Yang Weiping gritted his teeth and glared at Hughes Field fiercely, you will die in a few minutes at night!
"Field, you're not downstairs entertaining your friends, why are you here when you don't have anything to do?" Yang Weiping glanced at Hughes Field angrily.
"My best friend has just arrived, so I'll bring him with me as soon as I want to introduce you to each other. Hughes Field said solemnly, and then introduced to the white man in the uniform of a British Air Force colonel who was one position behind him: "Williams, my best friend, Colonel of the Royal Air Force of the British Empire, the top pilot! John Young, the best partner in my career, and at the same time my major shareholder!"
"Hello, Colonel, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Yang Weiping took the initiative to extend his right palm to Williams without being rude.
Williams stared at Yang Weiping deeply, stretched out his right hand and shook Yang Weiping vigorously, "Hello, Yang, Field's friend is my friend, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”
"William has just been transferred to Hong Kong from the United Kingdom and is currently Chief of Staff of the British Imperial Air Force at Shek Kong Air Base in the New Territories in Hong Kong. Hughes Field went on to introduce Williams' current identity.
Knowing the identity of the other party, Yang Weiping couldn't help but move slightly in his heart.
Before Hong Kong's return to the motherland, the British military strength in Hong Kong was overwhelming. The Governor of Hong Kong is also the Commander-in-Chief of the three armed forces in Hong Kong, but the actual command of the armed forces is controlled by the Commander of the British Armed Forces in Hong Kong, who is appointed by the British Ministry of Defence and is responsible to the Chief of Staff of the British Ministry of Defence.
The headquarters of the British armed forces in Hong Kong, as well as the army and navy headquarters, are located at the Royal Navy's Tamar Base on the waterfront in the central district of Hong Kong Island, while the air force headquarters is located at Shek Kong Air Base in the New Territories.
The colonel's chief of staff of Shek Kong Air Base in Hong Kong's New Territories, in Hong Kong, can definitely be regarded as a military tycoon with real power!
