At the end of the test screening, it was already more than 12 o'clock in the morning, and it was nearly 1 o'clock, Zhang Shaoping wanted to find a food stall to treat his stomach.
"Huh?" Zhang Shaoping suddenly saw something incredible, exclaimed, and hurriedly shouted to Chen Feihu: "Ah Hu, turn the front of the car, see if you see it, follow the white car." β
Zhang Shaoping kept the window open, looking out the window, the moment the two cars drove by each other just now, because the speed was not very fast, he saw the driver's face clearly, it was a strong man Huang Jianshen. This is not the most important, the key thing is that there is a woman sitting in the passenger seat, faintly looking like Zhao Yazhi.
"When they met at night, they were sitting in Huang Jianshen's car, so the two of them wouldn't really have ghosts, right? Could it be that Zhao Yazhi, who is strict in his surname, would also do such a thing as splitting his legs? Zhang Shaoping was extremely reluctant to see this scene.
Anyway, seeing the two together, Zhang Shaoping suddenly felt worried for some reason, and he suddenly became nervous. The image of the "White Lady" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and in Zhang Shaoping's memory, Zhao Yazhi has always been a perfect woman, a representative of purity, nobility, elegance, and a good wife and mother. But what he saw in front of him completely reversed his beautiful view.
"The two of them can't be cheating, right?" Zhang Shaoping guessed, but couldn't help but find an excuse for Zhao Yazhi, "Actually, this is not cheating, anyway, she and her husband Huang Weihan have no relationship, they are like passers-by." Besides, Huang Jianshen will be her second husband in the future, and the two may already be in love, neither Jun nor Yi. β
I thought so in my heart, but it couldn't dispel the haze in Zhang Shaoping's heart, and he became more and more panicked. As long as Zhao Yazhi does not divorce and does something that splits his legs, it is out of line, a stain and a flaw, and it is condemned. If this is the case, Zhang Shaoping will painfully find that the image of the perfect goddess of Zhao Yazhi's "White Lady" will collapse in an instant.
For a moment, Zhang Shaoping really wanted to tell Chen Feihu to turn around and leave, don't follow anymore, for fear of following, and really found that things were completely developing towards misdirection.
"Heading for Hong Kong Island, where is this going?" The development of things was not as dirty as Zhang Shaoping thought, and the two did not go to open a house, but went directly to Hong Kong Island.
Chen Feihu followed Huang Jianshen's car closely, biting it, going around and around, and finally stopped.
Two parallel pedestrian streets, with a short section of avenue connecting the two pedestrian streets in the middle. The pedestrian streets are not long, and each street is only seven or eight minutes away. The streets are lined with bars, but the faΓ§ade is small and dimly lit, so there's nothing special. However, there are a lot of "foreigners" here, and every three or two steps, you can see one or two "foreigners" holding wine glasses and talking while drinking.
"Lan Kwai Fong?!"
With such a distinctive place, Zhang Shaoping didn't have to think about it at all, he knew where it was.
Seeing that Zhao Yazhi and the two did not look like cheating, Zhang Shaoping's first reaction was to breathe a sigh of relief, and deeply despised his unbearable thoughts. But then, he had even greater doubts, there are bars all over the place, mixed with three religions and nine streams, many film and television stars often come here to have fun, these two people are not afraid of being recognized before they appear together?
Lan Kwai Fong, also known as "Ghost Place", is a short, narrow, L-shaped, cobbled alley between Wyndham Street and D'Guili Street in Central, but it has a great reputation.
Originally, there were many ladies who used to be "matchmakers" as their profession, so it was also called "matchmaker lane" or "matchmaker lane". Ten years ago, the Hong Kong government began urban renewal in the Central and Western District, widening roads and influx of commercial capital, which led to the rapid development of Lan Kwai Fong.
Lan Kwai Fong is quite famous in later generations, if tourists come to Hong Kong and do not come to Lan Kwai Fong, this trip to Hong Kong will be in vain. This kind of influence has even gone far beyond Hong Kong, so that in Guangzhou and Macao, "Lan Kwai Fong in Guangzhou" and "Lan Kwai Fong in Macau" have come out one after another.
Of course, at this time, Lan Kwai Fong was not so loud, there were many bars, but there were only a few Western restaurants. The name and decoration of the bar are very Western, full of unique exoticism, many fashionable young people and foreigners love to come to the bar to drink and entertain, the lights are bright and green, colorful, the more exciting the night.
Here, Huang Jianshen answered the phone and said a few words to Zhao Yazhi. Zhao Yazhi immediately wore a large peaked cap, disguised, and got out of the car with Huang Jinshen. Zhang Shaoping saw the two of them walking into a bar one after the other, hesitated for a moment, but decided not to follow up.
This stalking others is not a glorious thing in the first place, and there is a suspicion of spying on others. Since Zhang Shaoping has relieved his doubts, he has a plan to leave in his heart, but he is hungry, so he came to this place anyway, so he will simply go and feed and fill up.
"Hey, that Western restaurant seems to be very good, I haven't eaten authentic Western food in Hong Kong for a long time, let's try it tonight." Zhang Shaoping swept his eyes and saw a Western restaurant called "California".
In this western restaurant, many people come and go, but most of them are foreigners, and there are relatively few Hong Kong people.
Seeing Zhang Shaoping and Chen Feihu, a foreign man standing at the door in his thirties, greeted him in fluent Cantonese and said, "Hello! Hello! Welcome! β
This standard Cantonese for foreigners not only surprised Zhang Shaoping, but even Chen Feihu was curious. He was dressed casually, no clothes or bow tie, glamorous, and not dressed as a waiter.
"I can't believe you speak Cantonese so well! You're the owner of this shop, right? Although it was a question, Zhang Shaoping looked determined. Standing at the door like this, ushering in the send-off, except for the boss, there is really no one else.
"Yes, I'm the owner of this restaurant."
Zhang Shaoping praised: "This place is good, hidden in the downtown of Central, there are many Westerners and white-collar workers, Western restaurants are more in demand, and it is difficult for the boss to think that this restaurant is not popular." β
"I was more optimistic about this place, so I came here to open a Western restaurant. However, in the past year, Lan Kwai Fong has opened several Western restaurants, which have divided a lot of customers. The foreigner replied.
Zhang Shaoping shook his head and said: "There are more Western restaurants, which is not necessarily a bad thing, and it can be made into a characteristic street in Hong Kong." With the characteristics of the fusion of Western exoticism and Hong Kong's local culture, it will definitely attract more people to this place and develop into a world-famous tourist attraction, which is much better than a separate Western food area. β
Zhang Shaoping's words made this foreigner refreshed, and he was immediately impressed by Zhang Shaoping. He looked at Zhang Shaoping in surprise, looked at it, a hint of strange color flashed in the depths of his eyes, and said: "I, Sheng Zhiwen, also have the same idea, I want to make Lan Kwai Fong a characteristic street, but I have never considered developing it into a tourist attraction. β
"It's nothing, according to the development of Lan Kwai Fong, it will come to this point sooner or later."
"Excuse me, sir, I don't know what you do?" After Zeman asked, he smiled again: "I saw that Mr. talked extraordinarily, and I had the intention to get acquainted, but I didn't intend to inquire about Mr.'s **." β
Zhang Shaoping still looks like an immature offspring, with such knowledge, Sheng Zhiwen really wants to make friends.
"Hehehe, my name is Zhang Shaoping, and I am in the clothing business for the time being." Zhang Shaoping didn't care and replied.
"Come, Mr. Zhang, please come here!" Sheng Zhiwen personally brought Zhang Shaoping to a seat, "Zhang Sheng's first meal, wait for Sheng to come and disturb again." β
This son is very coincidental, through the floor-to-ceiling glass, he can just see the bar that Zhao Yazhi entered.
After Zeman left, Zhang Shaoping asked, "Ah Hu, what do you want to eat?" β
Chen Feihu touched his head and said with a smile: "Zhang Sheng, I haven't eaten Western food, how do you know what is delicious?" Why don't you help me? β
Zhang Shaoping smiled and began to order.
Zhang Shaoping was very happy, fortunately, in Hong Kong, he has been taught in English since primary school, and his grades were good when he was studying, otherwise, he couldn't pronounce the name of the dish in front of the all-English menu, and he was afraid that he would have a big mess.
ordered a good dish, and the waiter quickly brought it up,
Chen Feihu took a few bites, finished the Western food, smashed the bar, and muttered: "What kind of thing is this, it's not as good as lo-mei and barbecued pork buns." I don't understand, this thing is not delicious, and it can't fill my stomach, why do so many people come to eat it? β
Zhang Shaoping was speechless, people came to the Western restaurant to talk about a mood, although compared to it, he prefers Chinese food, but he can't bury others like this! At that moment, Zhang Shaoping waved his hand and sent this guy out, don't be embarrassed here.
After a while, Sheng Zhiwen reappeared and asked with a smile, "Zhang Sheng, how are you eating?" β
Zhang Shaoping said: "It's okay, it tastes pretty good." If you ask me if it's authentic, I can't answer because it's my first time in a Western restaurant. β
"Hehehe, Zhang Sheng said with a smile, this food pays attention to taste and environment, Western food, Chinese food, not the focus of the problem. Zhang Sheng thinks that the taste is good, which is a great affirmation of my restaurant. β
Zhang Shaoping joked: "Boss Sheng doesn't go to greet guests, but comes to chat with Zhang, can it be that there is something else?" β
Sheng Zhiwen said: "I won't go around in circles, just say it directly, I wonder if Zhang Sheng is interested in investing in Lan Kwai Fong?" Zhang Sheng's eyes are like torches, since he has seen that Lan Kwai Fong is full of business opportunities, doesn't he want to participate? β
Zhang Shaoping said with a smile: "Boss Sheng has only just met me, how do you know that I have the ability to invest in?" Maybe I have more than enough heart and not enough strength. β
"Money is not a problem, if Zhang Sheng is short of money, Sheng is willing to lend 10 million Hong Kong dollars. Because I believe that with Zhang Sheng's insight alone, as long as the operation is done well, the benefits of Lan Kwai Fong's future development far exceed this number. β
Zhang Shaoping was surprised: "It seems that you are not only very courageous, but also have a lot of wealth, and you will borrow 10 million yuan!" β
Sheng Zhiwen smiled: "Of course I don't have any money left, but I believe Zhang Sheng, your reputation alone is worth more than 10 million." β
"When did I become so famous that I could borrow 10 million casually?" Zhang Shaoping felt funny, "Boss Sheng, with all due respect, there is no free meal in the world, will you be so good?" β
"Hehehe, of course there is no free meal in the world, but Zhang Sheng is a friend of Huo Zhenting Huo Gongzi, just this, if I have spare money, if you ask me to borrow 100 million, I will not hesitate to lend it to you."
"Do you know Brother Huo? You" Zhang Shaoping didn't finish speaking, suddenly turned sharply and said: "I'm out of company!" Throwing down a few bills, the man hurried out of the restaurant.
Sheng Zhiwen was stunned, he didn't know what was going on, and hurriedly looked out the window, but saw two men fighting with fists and feet. Next to her, a graceful woman wearing a black peaked cap looked helpless, suspected of persuading.
