Next chapter

The organizer of this charity dinner is the oldest and most influential charity in Hong Kong: Tung Wah Group of Hospitals. Including Su Ming, many people often call it the 'East China Third Hospital'......

Originating in the 1870s, the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals has been committed to providing a wide range of services to the general public, including medical services, education services and community services. The so-called three hospitals, the earliest refers to the Guanghua Hospital, Donghua East Hospital, starting from a small TCM clinic, so far there are more than 200 clinics, large and small medical units all over Hong Kong.

In terms of social status and influence, the reputation of the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals is even higher than that of the Jockey Club, because although it is also charity, the Club is a gambling profit-making institution in the final analysis, while the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals is a medical institution that saves lives and helps the injured. The Jockey Club pays from the pockets of the majority of Hong Kong citizens, while the East China Third Hospital provides services in a down-to-earth manner, and there are even many free services, which are not the same.

"They are also barefoot doctors and old military doctors, why is the gap so big!" Su Ming craned his neck and muttered.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Don't move, don't move, the tie is crooked again, such an adult can't even tie a tie......"

Su Ming was wearing a crisp dark suit, while Nangong was wearing an elegant evening dress in light blue, with a brooch inlaid with sapphires hanging from his chest, and he leaned on the side to help him sort out his tie. On occasions like charity dinners, of course, you can't just wear jeans and jumpers, so after the two left the hotel, they went to Queen's Road to buy a shop.

After having 40 million, Su Ming basically didn't care about the 'small money' of buying clothes, and he didn't look at the price at all when he bought it, a set of Armani and a set of Gucci, plus a few small accessories from Nangong that looked simple but not simple, and when he checked out later, he found that it was close to seven figures.

Then, in the ghostly eyes of the clerk, the two of them wore millions of clothes and gestured, walked hand in hand to the side of the street, and hit a broken taxi Yangchang.

The taxi driver kept looking at the man and woman in the rearview mirror all the way. Su Ming was a little impatient, and asked with a glare, "What are you looking at?" I've never seen a mainland tourist! ”

The driver was also good-tempered, and said with a smile in non-standard Mandarin: "Wear such an expensive brand, be my broken taxi." Beware of being recognized. ”

"To be recognized, to be recognized, to be recognized, to be recognized?" Su Ming was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what the other party meant, he thought that he and Nangong were wearing copycats, and he thought about it. How can a person who has the money to buy millions of famous brands go out to take a taxi?

Whether it is the mainland, Xiangjiang, or even the Western world abroad, all taxi drivers seem to have a love of. Su Ming shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "No way, my helicopter hasn't arrived yet, otherwise I'll take the plane." ”

"Take a plane, pick, it's better to take a Gundam." The corners of the taxi driver's mouth twitched twice, wondering when mainland tourists would become bragging.

Taxis weave through traffic along the way. Most of the streets in Xiangjiang are very narrow, especially in the downtown area, there are few parallel four-lane lanes, most of them are single-lane, and even two-lane and three-lane are rare. When driving, every driver is required to strictly abide by the traffic rules, one car after another, the kind of overtaking situation in China is rarely seen, all go their own way, stop in an orderly manner. So even though the road was narrow, the taxi drove quickly along the way, and soon arrived at the Hong Kong Peninsula Hotel, where the dinner was held.

Opened in 1928, The Peninsula is the oldest hotel in Hong Kong. It is also one of the most luxurious and famous hotels in Hong Kong and even in the world, with the title of "Far Eastern Lady", in the golden age of the entertainment industry in Hong Kong in the 80s and 90s, it was once a gathering place for famous movie stars and artists, and many well-known artists even had a private room here for a long time, so it was also called the artist café.

Far from the outside. The Peninsula is like a concave castle, with a towering main building in the middle and two annexes extending from either side, like two walls to keep the enemy at bay. In fact, in its nearly 100-year history, the hotel has been used many times as a military headquarters and a fortress for wars.

The taxi driver skillfully turned the steering wheel, and the taxi turned a corner, along the ring road, towards the hotel gate, sandwiched between a row of luxury cars driving to the hotel gate, this broken taxi looked particularly shabby.

"Wow, I'm lucky, I'm going to see the big stars again!" The taxi driver suddenly pointed to a Lincoln No. 1 with a tail number of 9 in front of him and said.

"Which star?" Su Ming was also curious and stretched his neck to look ahead, but the window behind the Lincoln One had a dark film, and he couldn't see who was sitting in the car at all.

"The tenth brother of the Xiang family, it is the dragon five in the God of Gamblers, do you know?!" The taxi driver was visibly excited.

Su Ming and Nangong glanced at each other, they thought it was some kind of big star, it turned out to be Long Wu, I had only seen it two days ago, nothing remarkable. So he obviously dealt with it a little absent-mindedly: "Oh, I thought it was the God of Gambling." ”

The driver saw the two of them looking a little disappointed, turned around and said excitedly, "Wow, what is the God of Gamblers?" You mainlanders don't know the situation, Brother Ten said, all the gambling gods and gambling saints will become good babies. This is the real Xiangjiang boss, there is no big star of the little golden man! As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and showed Su Ming the tattoo on his arm, "When I was mixed with the rivers and lakes more than ten years ago, he was my idol......

"Wow, master, it's okay for you to concentrate on driving, look at the road ahead, in case you rear-end it, beware of someone sending a little brother to cut you." Isn't it Long Wu, I know, Xinji's original wordsman, and he gambled with me the night before yesterday. Su Ming hurriedly said.

"Bet on horses with you?" The driver rolled his eyes, his face sank, revealing a ruthless look of 'former Jianghu people', and said in a deep voice: "Pretty boy, I don't care if you blow water, but don't insult my idol!" ”

"I really bet on horses with him, and he lost a horse to me!" Su Ming screamed, how could it be an insult? I don't feel insulted when I gamble on horses with a former club boss of my dignified party members, so why did it become an insult to him? These people in Xiangjiang don't have a sense of right and wrong?

Hearing Su Ming say this, the driver's expression was even more disdainful, and he pretended to laugh exaggeratedly: "Lost a horse? Wow, pretty boy, do you think betting on horses is betting on horses? Is it the horse that wins? He kind of understood, it turned out that this young tourist from the mainland didn't understand anything at all, didn't know how to pretend to understand, and just bragged all the way.

"I can't tell you, why don't I ask him to sign for you and offset the fare?"

The driver didn't even bother to reply this time, and waved his hand very perfunctorily: "Okay, okay, I believe you, you have a helicopter, you have gambled with Brother Shi, you have played ball with ******, and you still play games with aliens, don't you?" ”

Su Ming wanted to say something, Nangong dragged him and whispered, "You're so bored, why are you arguing with him." ”

"Yes, being idle is also idle, where is it nonsense?" Su Ming said with a grin.

As he spoke, he had reached the entrance of the hotel, and Lincoln stopped in front of him, and the taxi also stopped. A waiter ran over, with a warm but not humble expression on his face, opened the door of the Lincoln One, and stepped out of it with his shiny leather shoes.

"It's out, it's out! I'm finally going to meet my idol! The taxi driver was so excited that he forgot to get stuck on his watch, and the numbers on it were still jumping up a few cents. Nangong handed over a large-denomination banknote, and the driver simply waved his hand without looking back: "I don't have time to find money, I won't charge you money, get out of the car, don't delay me to see idols!" ”

In front, Long Wuyi stepped out of the car in a dark suit, and there was a middle-aged woman dressed in jewels beside him. The driver was stunned, the clothes that Long Wu was wearing today collided with Su Ming.

"Wow, the same clothes, my idol is 10,000 times more beautiful than you!"

When the driver spoke, Su Ming and Nangong had already gotten out of the car, took Nangong and walked towards Long Wu, and called 'Ten Brother' from behind.

Long Wu in front was about to walk towards the hotel, when he heard someone calling, he looked back, he was slightly stunned at first, then showed a smile, and took the initiative to stop and stand at the door of the hotel waiting for Su Ming.

"Wow? Really recognized? The driver was stunned, a little messy, and reluctant to leave for a while, so that he didn't hear the car behind him honking its horn to urge.

Seeing the two sides standing at the door of the hotel and saying a few words, Su Ming took out a very small piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Long Wu, muttering a few words, and Long Wu followed with a very strange expression and wrote something on the piece of paper.

Su Ming strode back to the taxi and knocked on the driver's side of the window.

The taxi driver hurriedly rolled down the window, excitedly grabbed Su Ming's hand, and said incredibly: "Wow, pretty boy, you are really friends with my idol!" What I said just now should be regarded as a fart, don't take it to heart! ”

"Everyone is kidding, what is there to worry about, hurry up and go, don't block the traffic." Su Ming casually handed the small piece of paper just now to the driver: "Oh, I almost forgot, your idol's signature should be used as a fare for the fare, I won't take advantage of you." ”

After speaking, he hurriedly strode back to the door of the hotel.

The driver took the 'piece of paper' and looked at it, it turned out to be an Armani invoice, a long list of numbers on it made his eyelids jump, at the bottom of the invoice, there was a line written in some scribbled words, but it was still recognizable, it was written "Love the motherland, abide by the law." Tenth brother. ”

"Brother Ten, I will definitely remember it!" The taxi driver nodded heavily at the invoice, quickly pulled down his sleeve to hide the tattoo on his arm, and then carefully stuffed the Armani invoice into his wallet.

Outside the hotel, Long Wu looked at Su Ming who ran back a little helplessly.

Although he has not been a big brother for many years, as a top club boss who once surprised the situation, it is really a little inexplicable shame to think about what to write such as 'abiding by the law'.

"Brother Ten, I think you really have the potential to become a party member, if you want to join the party, I will find someone to help you write an application when I go back!" Su Ming ran back and said something lightly, and then officially nodded and smiled at the woman beside Long Wu: "Mrs. Xiang, hello!" (To be continued.) )
