Chapter 230: On the rooftop
The day after the celebration banquet, Wang Zheng took the time to return to Yuen Long.
Mr. Wang had only lived in Xiangjiang for a month, and he was clamoring to go back to his hometown in Longgang, worried that he would not do enough work and get rid of the country's hind legs.
When I came back from Yuen Long, it was getting late, and as soon as I returned to the dormitory of Dun Hau Building, I received a call from Wu Yusen, who had already made an appointment to meet Xu Ke at Garden Road, West District, Central.
Unexpectedly, Wu Yusen's efficiency was so fast, Wang Zheng drove to the Central and Western District again, and heard that Xu Ke loved Cuban cigars, and saw a cigar franchise store on the way, ready to buy a box by the way.
"Boss, do you have any cigars from Cuba?"
The decoration in the cigar shop is very luxurious, the decoration is the same as that of an international brand luxury store, on the sofa in the middle of the store, there is a middle-aged man of thirty-five or sixteen years old, who is holding a cigar and leaning his neck to swallow the clouds.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he continued to tilt his neck, without even looking at Wang Zheng, and asked with circles in his eyes: "What, how do you know that your eyes look at me like a salesperson?"
"I'm sorry, I was mistaken. ”
Although the other party's tone was arrogant, when Wang Zheng found that there was a very beautiful saleswoman sitting on the counter next to the shelf, he realized that he had asked the wrong person, hurriedly apologized, and walked to the salesperson.
"Excuse me, are there any Cuban cigars?"
Wang Zheng went out this time without disguise, and the saleswoman recognized him at a glance, but did not make a fuss, but politely asked him about the price requirements, and took out a box of 25 cigars from the shelf.
Wang Zheng didn't know much about how to distinguish the quality of cigars, so he picked up a cigar and sniffed it on the tip of his nose, and asked, "How much?"
"I'm in for this box of cigars, no money. ”
Just as the saleswoman was about to quote the price, the middle-aged man who was swallowing clouds and fog on the sofa suddenly walked over.
I saw him quickly come to Wang Zheng, stretched out his right hand, and laughed: "Haha, I'm really sorry, blame Liu for being clumsy, he didn't recognize Wang Daolai just now, this box of cigars should be to make amends for the recklessness just now!"
Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling man, although the middle-aged man's tone just now was arrogant, Wang Zheng still shook his hand gently, and said with a light smile: "Sir is polite!
The middle-aged man said with a smile: "My surname is Liu, my name is Luan Xiong, I am just a businessman in Xiangjiang, Director Wang must have never heard of me." ”
Listening to the name reported by the middle-aged man, the smile on Wang Zheng's face froze, he never expected that this guy would be Liu Luanxiong, a famous rich man in later generations, if he hadn't reported his name, he really wouldn't have recognized it.
Although Wang Zheng's job is a director, he is also a professional actor, so he immediately contained the surprise in his heart, with a smile on his face, and said: "It turned out to be Boss Liu, thank you for your generosity, but there is no reason to let others pay the bill when buying things." ”
Liu Luanxiong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Director Wang is welcome, my biggest hobby is smoking cigars and collecting antiques, this cigar shop is a store under my name, and opening this store is also for the convenience of myself and friends. ”
Although Liu Luanxiong behaved enthusiastically and generously, Wang Zheng did not dare to compliment his character, nor did he have any good feelings, not to mention the many female stars he played with in later generations, just because he was a good brother to Xiang Huaxiang, he had to keep his distance from him.
The most important point is that Liu Luanxiong's start made Wang Zheng feel a little ashamed.
At the beginning of this year, Liu Luanxiong and friends partnered with a ceiling fan company listed, the company's stock price rose sharply after the listing, while the company's directors were all jubilant, Liu Luanxiong suddenly threw off his shares, so that the company's stock price fell from 4 yuan to 7 jiao, resulting in a company that had just been listed on the verge of bankruptcy. The most shameful thing is that Liu Luanxiong, who cashed out a lot of cash, took advantage of the company's stock price to get lower and lower, and then bought it at a low price, and in less than half a year, the ceiling fan company that was originally a partnership finally became his own family, for which he also earned the first pot of gold in his life, 100 million Hong Kong dollars.
In business, maybe this is nothing to businessmen, Wang Zheng doesn't understand the stock market, but he knows that this 100 million Hong Kong dollars is exchanged for thousands of broken families and betrayal of partners.
"Thank you Boss Liu for your generosity, I bought this box of cigars as a gift to a friend, if Boss Liu wants to pay, wouldn't it seem that I am not sincere enough to my friend. ”
Wang Zheng politely refused, and after speaking, he took out ten large golden bulls of 1,000 Hong Kong dollars and put them on the counter, and said: "Thank you again for Boss Liu's generosity, the Xiangjiang is not big, and when we still meet, I will lose company first." ”
After Wang Zheng finished speaking, without waiting for Liu Luanxiong to speak, he left the cigar shop directly and drove towards Garden Road, as he said at the end, Xiangjiang is not big, the two will definitely meet again, whether they will be cold or indifferent when they meet again, he doesn't know, but he knows that they will not be friends.
Wang Zheng's lack of face made Liu Luanxiong a little unhappy, the beautiful saleswoman was very good at observing words and feelings, swept away the professional politeness that Wang Zheng had just seen, and said with a smile: "Boss, then Wang Zheng doesn't give you face!"
Liu Luanxiong looked at Wang Zheng's distant vehicle, touched the saleswoman's buttocks, pinched it hard, and then said in a disdainful tone: "It's just a play, this time it's to give him face, next time I won't be so generous." ”
...
Drove to the address of Garden Road that Wu Yusen said, Wang Zheng was a little dumbfounded when he got out of the car, he thought that the meeting place would be a restaurant or café, which Cheng thought that it would be an unfinished construction site, next to the construction site are high-rise commercial buildings, and this unfinished building is straight into the sky, a lot higher than the surrounding buildings.
In desperation, Wang Zheng had no choice but to call Wu Yusen's mobile phone: "Brother Sen, are you sure it's No. 101 Garden Road!
The signal of the mobile phone was not very good, and it took a long time for Wang Zheng to understand what Wu Yusen meant.
It turned out that the building in front of him was the headquarters of the Xiangjiang branch of the Bank of China, which began to be planned and started in 82 years, and it was not capped until 85 years, and Wu Yusen and Xu Ke were waiting on the roof of the building at this time.
Xu Lao Wei is really worthy of his title, why do you climb so high when you see him, even if you want to meet on the rooftop, there are so many high-rise buildings next to you, you have to choose a half-tail building.
Grab a cigar and take the construction elevator on the construction site to the top floor.
The roof of the building is more than 200 meters away from the ground, Wang Zheng just stepped on the roof of the building to feel the strong wind, the stars are shining overhead, looking down, you can also see the whole Central, Causeway Bay panorama, if it is not for the legs and stomach a little trembling and the oncoming wind, here to see the scenery, can far exceed the top of the Taiping Mountain.
"Ah Zheng, you must be surprised to be here, right?"
Before Wang Zheng finished looking at the whole picture of the Central and Western Districts, Wu Yusen greeted him.
The weather in April was still very cool, coupled with the strong wind on the roof, Wang Zheng tightened his collar and asked, "It's a bit of an accident, is there anything else to say about meeting on the rooftop?"
Wu Yusen smiled: "Of course there is a statement, let's talk about it when I see Xu Ke." ”
After speaking, he took Wang Zheng to a corner on the roof of the building, and there were bursts of fire from inside.
"Wenguang, Ah Zheng has arrived, come and say hello!"
Xu Ke, who was adding wood to the fire, heard Wu Yusen's greeting, hurriedly stood up, greeted Wang Zheng very warmly, and took the initiative to stretch out his right hand and said, "Director Wang, welcome to your arrival!"
The last time I saw Xu Ke, he still had a cold attitude, but he didn't expect to meet again but there was a big change, Wang Zheng held his hand and said: "I just heard Brother Sen say that there is a saying about meeting on the rooftop, could it be that Director Xu wants to come to a spy joint drama?"
Xu Ke laughed and said: "Don't listen to his nonsense, when we are not famous and have no drama to film, we always like to climb to the top of the highest building, drink and smoke together and look forward to the future, about here, just because this is the highest building in Xiangjiang." ”
