389 [Two Poor Eggs]
Wang Zijun got off in the courtyard of the Huo family with Zou Wenhuai's car, and glanced at it, there were a lot of luxury cars parked around, looking at this situation, there were many rich people at today's birthday banquet.
As soon as I opened the car door, a Filipino maid said, "Sir, please come with me"
Walking through the garden, you can already see the hall crowded with people, and in the shadows of the garden there are several young people gathering and chatting.
Wang Zijun was about to go in, but he heard a female voice in the garden shouting: "Hi~ Mr. Wang, good evening"
Wang Zijun looked at it fixedly, and the person who called him was Huo Yingdong's eldest daughter Huo Liping, in addition, there were three men and one woman and several young people in their twenties.
"Hello, Miss Huo, thank you for the invitation." Wang Zijun greeted and smiled.
"I thought you weren't coming." Huo Liping smiled and said to Zou Wenhuai, "Uncle Zou is good." ”
Zou Wenhuai said: "You young people talk, I'll go in first." ”
"Uncle Zou walks slowly," Huo Liping shouted, before turning around to introduce the others, "Mr. Wang, let me introduce you, this is He Houhua, the son of Mr. Ho, the king of the Macau boat." This is my younger brother Huo Zhenyu, this is Ah Yu's girlfriend Miss He Wenshi. This is my senior in California, Weston, who is here to visit Hong Kong. ”
"Hello...... Hello......" Huo Liping introduced one, and Wang Zijun reached over to shake hands.
A few other people said that Wang Zijun was not very interested, but this young man who was two years younger than him, He Houhua, made Wang Zijun feel refreshed, the future chief executive of Macau.
At this time, He Houhua was only 21 years old, and he did not have a future age, but he had a capable temperament all over his body, and he could give people a good impression when he spoke.
As for the American Weston, seeing that he and Huo Liping are close, it is estimated that the two are in love, but there is no future in this relationship.
"Where is Mr. Ho?" After saying hello, Wang Zijun asked He Houhua casually.
He Houhua said: "It's not about high school, it's just studying in Canada." ”
"Haha, it turned out to be a high-achieving student who stayed abroad." Wang Zijun laughed at himself, "I can't even study in a university, and now I'm having a headache with my graduation thesis." You and Miss Huo are both smart people who can read. ”
Huo Liping said with a smile: "But no one dares to compare with you, you can fight the world by yourself at such a young age with your bare hands." We were talking about you just now, my brother is a fan of yours. ”
"Oh, yes, that's an honor." Wang Zijun said.
Huo Zhenyu is one year younger than Wang Zijun, baby-faced, doesn't talk much, but has a smile on his face all the time. Hearing his sister mention herself, Huo Zhenyu said: "Just now Mr. Weston said that young people in the United States know two Chinese, one is Bruce Lee, and the other is Mr. Wang. ”
"I can't afford it." Wang Zijun said with a smile.
"No," said Weston, "you are the idol of many young Americans, Wang. ”
Wang Zijun was surprised: "Wei Sidong, you speak Cantonese so well, even more standard than me." ”
Weston smiled proudly: "I lived in Hong Kong until I was ten years old, and this is my hometown. Mr. Ho, it's similar in Canada, right? Quite a few words"
"Yes, many people like to watch Mr. Wang's movies." He Houhua said.
"When we left the United States, there was going to be a food truck, and if I wasn't coming to Hong Kong, I was going to see it," Westedon said. ”
As she was talking, Huo Liping looked at the hall and suddenly said, "The banquet is about to start, let's go in first." ”
Wang Zijun was as good as a stream, chatting with a few young people while going in, his eyes swept over, and all kinds of rich people who didn't know each other gathered together, like Li Ka-shing, Wang Zhongming, He Xian, Xu Shixun, etc., nearly half of Wang Zijun didn't know him.
Huo Yingdong's three wives guarded him downstairs like a starry half-moon, and the third wife was married a few years ago, a young beauty, walking at the back.
"Thank you for coming today, I can't thank you enough." Huo Yingdong hugged his fists and smiled, he is in his fifties, and he is full of enthusiasm when he speaks.
"Whereever, of course we have to celebrate Mr. Huo's birthday."
"Happy Birthday Mr. Huo"
“……”
The bosses present congratulated one after another, and several of Fok Yingdong's sons and daughters also asked someone to bring up a big cake, light candles and turn off the lights to make wishes.
Wang Zijun got a piece of cake and was eating it, when he saw an acquaintance next to him, he walked over and said with a smile: "Boss Liu, you are also there." ”…,
That person was Liu Luansheng, and when he saw Wang Zijun, he was taken aback at first, and then nodded and said, "Hello Mr. Wang." ”
Wang Zijun smiled before walking away.
A person next to him walked up to Liu Luansheng and said, "Ah Sheng, this guy is just making a movie, and he doesn't say a word, it's really rude." What do you do with him? ”
How can Liu Luan say that he lost face, and smiled awkwardly and said, "Ordinary friends, just say hello." ”
Wang Zijun was a little unsociable, and Wei Sidong couldn't find anyone to talk to, so the two chatted together about things in the United States.
While chatting, Weston suddenly said, "Wang, I discovered a very interesting thing yesterday. ”
"What's the matter?" Wang Zijun asked.
"Last month, Atari Games launched a game in the U.S. called Super Mario, and it was very popular. Yesterday, when I was shopping in Hong Kong, I found out that it was actually listed at the beginning of the year. It's weird."
"Is Super Mario popular in the US?". Wang Zijun asked.
"Of course," said West, "I didn't play arcades before, and the day after I came out, I spent fifty dollars to play." It's not surprising that this game was the first to be released in Asia. ”
Wang Zijun said: "Maybe it's a game developed by Asians. ”
Weston said disincredulously, "How is this possible. ”
"Nothing is impossible." Wang Zijun smiled secretly, but heard the conversation of the three people next to him, which attracted his attention.
A twenty-eight or nineteen-year-old man said: "Boss Chen, this kind of home video recorder was developed by Japan's Sony company last year, and it can be used as a family to sit at home and watch movies, and you can also record and watch by yourself, which is very popular in Japan." Can we work together to buy a patent from Sony and produce it in Hong Kong? ”
Boss Chen is in his fifties, and his cloudy eyes reveal a shrewd brilliance from time to time, he thought about it and said: "This kind of home video recorder is convenient to watch movies at home, but in fact, it is not pleasing inside and out, people who want to watch movies go to the cinema, and they can watch TV if they want to watch TV, people's demand is not large, and the price is expensive, so it can only be sold as a luxury product." It's not a good business."
"I think I can try it, and I heard that Sony's sales were pretty good last year. And this kind of high-tech products, if you want to enter, you have to seize the market as soon as possible, and when the production cost is reduced, it has become a big road goods, and the cats and dogs are drilled into it, and it is not easy to make a lot of money at that time. The man next to him encouraged.
Boss Chen shook his head and said, "I'd better think about it." ”
The other two were a little regretful when they saw this, but they did not continue to persuade them, but vigorously boasted about the benefits of home video recorders.
Wang Zijun could see clearly from the side that the two younger ones estimated that they did not have enough funds, so they joined the gang with Boss Chen. However, that Boss Chen is old and refined, and he has been unmoved.
However, Japan actually released a home video recorder last year, which made Wang Zijun a little surprised.
"I don't think it's better to do this," said Boss Chen, "first import a small batch of machines from Japan and try to sell them." ”
The young man who spoke first was anxious and said, "Mr. Chen, how can this be done?" If we import from Japan, after the hot sale, there will be countless competitors to join, and the Japanese side will sit on the ground and start the price, and we can only make a little money at that time. If you want to import and sell, it is best to sign a large order with Sony and be their exclusive distributor in Hong Kong. ”
"I'll take another look." After Boss Chen finished speaking, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said to Li Ka-shing opposite, "Oh, it's Mr. Li, hello hello."
The old fox took the opportunity to run away, not wanting to ramble with the two young men.
Just as Huo Liping came over, Wang Zijun asked, "Miss Huo, do you know these two people?" ”。
"They" Huo Liping looked at it and said with a smile, "The older one is called He Jiasheng, and he can be regarded as a member of the old He family, but he has not been very good." Originally, he also had a plastic flower factory, but in recent years, plastic flowers have been unsalable, and He Jiasheng has been very miserable in the stock market crash, so he is very depressed now. The other one is named Li Zhe, a junior of my third mother's family, who seems to have studied at Waseda University, and I don't know about the rest. ”
The third mother in Huo Liping's mouth is Huo Yingdong's third wife.
He Jiasheng and Li Zhe were busy for almost an hour with wine glasses everywhere to pull people in, and no one was willing to cooperate with them. In other words, even people who are interested in this kind of home video recorder will investigate it beforehand, and it is impossible to agree to them right away, or to leave them and do it themselves. …,
Both of them had their throats dry, but still without success, and walked outside in a huff, and sat next to each other on the steps and sighed.
"Ah Zhe, these old guys are so good that they can't pay a penny." He Jiasheng drank the wine in his hand in one gulp and threw the cup aside.
"If they don't do it, we'll come by ourselves," Li Zhe said angrily, "You are also a descendant of the He family, so many uncles and uncles are billionaires, can't you even borrow hundreds of thousands?" ”
"Hey" He Jiasheng sneered, "Who will care about you when you are in trouble?" I begged to go to the door, and those guys threw a few thousand dollars at most to send me away. Hundreds of thousands, don't even think about it. What about you? Mr. Huo is also your uncle, he is good, and he is very good to your aunt, so it should be no problem for you to borrow it. ”
Li Zhe looked back inside, and saw that no one behind him leaned over and whispered: "My aunt has her difficulties, and I am not allowed to stretch out my hand to the Huo family." This kind of thing, you know. ”
"Oh." He Jiasheng nodded, this involved other people's housework, and it was inconvenient for him to ask again.
alas
The two sat on the steps, smoking one smoky cigarette after the other. finally found a business opportunity, but because they had no capital, the sum of the two poor eggs was only more than 100,000 yuan. This is a lot for the surname of the ordinary boss, but building a factory to produce home video recorders is a drop in the bucket.
Just when the two of them were distressed, suddenly a voice came from behind: "The two of you are so good, you sneak out of the middle of the road to admire the moon." ”
