Text Chapter 65 Headache (Ask for Recommendation Monthly Pass Collection)
After listening to Hunter Allen's explanation, Xiao Peng realized how naΓ―ve his idea was, and if he had money, he could join the Jockey Club.
The Hong Kong Jockey Club turned out to be a private club that has been established for more than 130 years! It has developed into one of the largest and most senior member clubs in Asia! At the same time, it is also one of the world's largest speed horse racing operators! The annual Hong Kong International Horse Racing is an international first-class race, and it is also considered to be one of the highest level horse racing events in the world!
The most awesome thing about the Hong Kong Jockey Club is that it has always adopted a unique 'non-profit' operating model! The Club has no shareholders, no dividends, and all its surplus is used for charity, giving back to the society, and the Club has donated more than 10 billion Hong Kong dollars in the past 10 years! It is one of the largest charitable donors in the world. It is on a par with the 'Rockefeller Foundation' in the United States. Twelve prominent individuals make up the Club's Board of Directors, who serve on a voluntary basis without honorarium. In other words, they don't need any honorarium, right? What are Li Ka-shing, Guo Bingxiang, etc., do they need honorarium?
Want to become a member of the Hong Kong Jockey Club? There are at least 12 high-end clubs in Hong Kong, and membership fees range from hundreds of thousands to millions. In contrast, the Hong Kong Jockey Club's membership fee of HK$250,000 is really not high, and can only rank ninth. But the Hong Kong Jockey Club is not just about having money to join! Want to become a member of the Hong Kong Jockey Club? It's a difficult process!
At the top of the Club's pyramid are 200 members. These elected members are elected by the Board of Directors. To be accepted, a newcomer to the Club must be nominated by a Voting Member and seconded by another Voting Member, along with three members who are willing to support the Club.
And even if you find all the people, it doesn't mean that you can join the Hong Kong Jockey Club. After receiving the recommendation of the selection member, the Jockey Club will conduct two investigations on the trust of the applicant, on the one hand, the applicant's background information, any stain will be regarded as a disqualified factor! On the other hand, it will cooperate with the Hang Seng Bank of Hong Kong to conduct a financial investigation on the applicant.
Even if both parties successfully pass the Hong Kong Jockey Club's investigation, it does not mean that they can join the club immediately. The Hong Kong Jockey Club has limited facilities, so only 25 new members are open each month. Even if you get a referral opportunity, you may have to wait in line for three or five years.
Someone who applied for membership was still rich and had their turn, well, already bankruptγγγγγγ
But even so, there are still countless people who want to join the Hong Kong Jockey Club. What is a status symbol in Hong Kong? A house in Mid-Levels, a yacht parked in Victoria Harbour, a Rolls-Royce in a garage, and a member of the Hong Kong Jockey Club, these are the elite of the upper class. Becoming a member of the Jockey Club is a great help in doing business and building a social image!
The quality of its members determines the fate of the club, and it is also the premise of maintaining the purity and quality of the club, so for more than 100 years, the Hong Kong Jockey Club has never given its membership to a celebrity because of favors. Membership is also non-transferable.
"I can't race without a member of the Hong Kong Jockey Club?" said Xiao Peng angrily, "Does this mean that I can't compete if I have a good horse?"
"Actually, it's not impossible. Hunter Allen's words gave Xiao Peng hope.
"What the hell can be done?" Xiao Peng asked Hunter Allen.
Hunter Allen pointed in the direction of the new racecourse: "Let the owner of the horse farm contact and sign up for the race as a horse farm." β
"Uh, it's that simple?" Xiao Peng was stunned.
Hunter Allen nodded: "It's that simple, but it depends on luck and the ability of the horse farm owner." Especially now that it's the Hong Kong horse racing season. If it works well, there is a good chance that you will have a chance to play. I'm a little curious, though, as far as I know, this horse farm has been around for years. But why do I always feel like you don't know anything about horse racing?"
Xiao Peng explained embarrassedly: "This, I am not the owner of this horse farm, just like you, I have just joined this horse farm not long ago." β
"Ugh. Hunter Allen was stunned for a while, and suddenly asked a key question: "Then the real boss here doesn't have the identity of a horse club?
Xiao Peng covered his face: "Damn, I forgot this stubble clean! I'll go ask him!" Xiao Peng turned around and wanted to leave.
"Xiao, you wait!" Hunter Allen called Xiao Peng: "There is something you can help me mention." β
"What's the matter?" Xiao Peng asked.
"Trainer! I need a trainer!" shouted Hunter Allen, "I don't want the Titan to be so wasted! I need my own team! Besides, the current track has to be renovated, and the current track is a safety hazard if it is racing!"
Xiao Peng waved his hand: "I know! Don't worry, I'll tell them right away and give you an answer in the evening." "I'm driving away, and now there's no time to waste! There's no money to say anything! Trainers, grooms, cleaners, veterinariansγγγγγγ It's all money! Hurry up and race to earn bonuses is the last word! I really started to play horse racing, and Xiao Peng found that millions of dollars are just a lot of moneyγγγγγγ
As for the domestic race, forget it! The domestic speed horse racing environment is not very good, many tracks have potential safety hazards, it is easy to hurt the horse race, and the system is not very standardized, after all, the industry has just begun to develop, and the prize money is not high. Playing speed horse racing still has to be raced abroad, known as one of the best medium and long-distance horse racing in the southern hemisphere, the 'Mongolian Khan', in fact, its horse owner is Chinese.
Xiao Peng drove to the side of the racecourse, where Huang He and the three of them were still blind, and heard the sound of the engine: "Brother Peng, why are you back again?"
"Don't be so special, let's get in the car and get in the car, let's go find Pan Peiyu!" Xiao Peng is now a little impatient when he can't participate in the competition and can't make money.
Huang He and Di Wei glanced at each other, Xiao Peng, what's wrong?
"What's your ink? Forget it, Di Wei, you contact Pan Peiyu and ask him to come over quickly!" Xiao Peng shouted.
Di Wei sighed in his heart, remembering the video Pan Peiyu had just shown him, Xiao Peng didn't come back to take revenge on Pan Peiyu, right? He has a good relationship with Pan Peiyu. Thinking about the video of Xiao Peng and Yang Meng working just now, Di Wei swallowed his saliva, he didn't want to see Xiao Peng abolish Pan Peiyu!
"That, Brother Peng, Xiao Pan just likes to play pranks, people don't have any bad intentions, forget about it, right?" Di Wei said cautiously.
"What kind of mess?" Xiao Peng was stunned: "What are you thinking about?" I mean we have to find a place to have a meal and a meeting to determine how the racecourse will develop in the future!"
When Di Wei heard this, he let out a sigh: "Oh, this, okay, Brother Peng listens to you, I'll contact Xiao Pan." β
Cai Junwei said: "Brother Peng, let's see you over there at the old racecourse, let's go back and take a shower and change clothes." I've been working all day, and I'm a clay man!"
Di Wei gave him the middle finger: "You a fart, it's me and Huang He doing a good job, right?"
Cai Fatzi said as a matter of course: "I'm overseeing the work!"
"I'll beat you as an overseer, Brother Peng, you go wash first, we'll go over after we clean up this dead fat man!" Di Wei said.
Xiao Peng thought about it, and what he said made sense, so he ran back to the dormitory area to take a shower and change clothes, and as soon as he went back, he happened to see Yang Meng walking to his room wearing a bath towel.
"Mengzi, change clothes, let's have a meal and a meeting together. Xiao Peng greeted.
Yang Meng waved his hand: "What meeting am I going to have?" I wasted that time and went to sleep. β
Xiao Peng pouted: "Whatever you want." "Let Yang use his brain, that's really not his specialty, let him be.
When Xiao Peng finished taking a shower and changed his clothes, Pan Peiyu and the others had been waiting for him for a long time.
"Brother Peng, you can really wash. Di Wei complained.
Xiao Peng nodded: "Taking a bath is enjoyment, how can you be worthy of yourself if you don't bubble well?" If it weren't for something, I would have soaked for at least another hour. β
We've been waiting for you for a long timeγγγγγγ Di Wei thought in his heart, but he couldn't say this, so he decisively changed the topic: "What about Mengzi?"
Xiao Peng said: "He said he was going to sleep and wouldn't go." β
Di Wei shrugged: "Everyone goes, what is it like if he doesn't go? I'll call him!" After speaking, he went directly to smash Yang Meng's room door, Xiao Peng wanted to stop it too late, Xiao Peng directly covered his eyes.
Huang He saw it on the side and gently poked Xiao Peng: "Brother Peng, what's wrong?"
Xiao Peng replied in a low voice: "If there is a wake-up gas ranking among the people I know, Mengzi will definitely rank firstγγγγγγ β
Huang He didn't stop Di Wei after hearing this, but watched the excitement with great interest. I saw that Di Wei was still banging on the door desperately there, and kept shouting: "Brother Mengzi, get up!"
Cai Fatzi whispered: "You look at Di Wei's appearance of slamming the door, does it look like Aunt Xue?"
Pan Peiyu snickered when he heard this, but saw that the door of Yang Meng's room suddenly opened, and a hand stretched out and pulled Di Wei in.
"!" Huang He and the others saw it, and hurriedly ran over to see what the situation was, only to see Yang Meng's eyes full of fierceness, dragging Di Wei with one hand, and opening the window with the other hand, this posture is to throw Di Wei out of the window?
Although this is not high, only two floors, but if this is really thrown out, it can also throw Di Wei half to death!
Huang He and the others hurried to stop Yang Meng, but the difference in strength was too great. Can't stop it at all!
Just when everyone was at a loss, Xiao Peng coughed dryly: "Mengzi, let's go, there is a girl! Di Wei is going to introduce you to a beautiful woman!"
"Poof". Yang Meng let go, and Di Wei fell to the ground
"If you don't say it sooner, wait until I get dressed. Yang Meng went to change his clothes.
Everyone: "γγγγγγγ β
