Chapter 101: Buying "Peace Charms"

Yung Kee Restaurant.

Like FLM, it is also known as the "Dining Hall of the Regal" in Hong Kong, and is one of the high-end restaurants that many high-ranking officials, wealthy and celebrities in Hong Kong like to patronize. High-income people such as lawyers, doctors and bank managers who work in Central are its regular customers.

Yung Kee is famous for its roast goose and specializes in Cantonese cuisine, and was named one of the world's top 15 restaurants by Fortune magazine in 1968.

"Zhang Sheng, rare guest, the New Year is auspicious, the career is prosperous, and you will make a fortune!"

As soon as I walked into Yung Kee, I saw Gan Jiancheng, the managing director of Yung Kee, snoring enthusiastically and smilingly. Seeing that he said it smoothly, I don't know how many times I have said these festive words a day.

Zhang Shaoping also hugged his fists and smiled: "Tongxi!" Rejoice! ”

Zhang Shaoping didn't come alone, in addition to the bodyguard, there was also a young woman wearing a winter hat.

"Come, come, come, Zhang Sheng, I'll take you there." Rich people are like this, there is no shortage of beautiful women wherever they go, and Gan Jiancheng has never done such a thing, he was not surprised, and while leading the way in front, he asked with a smile: "Or is it an old place?" ”

"Haha, I'm the one who misses the old the most."

led Zhang Shaoping to the box he was accustomed to, and Gan Jiancheng was busy turning on the air conditioner.

And Zhang Shaoping first pulled out a chair and let the beautiful woman next to him sit down. After the woman sat down, she took off her winter hat and coat draped over her body, Zhang Shaoping took it and put it away.

Seeing the woman's beautiful and flawless face, Gan Jiancheng's heart was filled with surprise, but he didn't show it, but asked with a smile: "Zhang Sheng, Miss Chen, what are you going to eat?" ”

Zhang Shaoping didn't reply to him, but asked the beautiful woman beside him: "Sister Lian, what do you say?" ”

Chen Yulian smiled faintly and said, "Whatever, just make it light." ”

"Shui Yunxuan picks two portions of cakes, preserved eggs, and clear porridge, well, there is also a small dish of roast goose, and the rest, Manager Gan, you can look at it."

"Hehehe, okay, I'll cut the roast goose for you myself."

Gan Jiancheng walked out of the box and closed the door, his mind was still haunted by the surprise when he first saw Chen Yulian just now, the unique and striking temperament, the nobility in his bones, the ice and jade, the incomprehensible, and indifferent.

Gan Jiancheng is envious of Zhang Shaoping's glamorous fortune, last time Zhang Shaoping brought Michelle here, and this time it was replaced by Chen Yulian, both of whom are beautiful female stars.

"Female celebrities are really good, should I also find one to play with?" Gan Jiancheng's heart was itching, and he walked away quickly with this thought.

There are thousands of beauties in this world, and there are more beautiful than female stars, but why do many rich people like to play actresses? Because actresses have an extra layer of "halo" - many people treat them as goddesses, and ravaging goddesses is the favorite of the rich.

"Try this, Yong Kee is best known for roast goose." Zhang Shaoping sandwiched a piece of roast goose meat that had just been served on the table and put it in Chen Yulian's Fluttershy, "Don't go to McDonald's and those places, it's not good to eat too much fried chicken thighs." ”

Seeing the roast goose meat, Chen Yulian couldn't help frowning, and said angrily: "You're angry with me, right?" I've recently lost weight and have been a vegetarian. ”

Zhang Shaoping saw that Chen Yulian was no longer cold, and immediately smiled, he liked to tease Chen Yulian, who was indifferent to the surname and didn't eat fireworks. Zhang Shaoping chuckled: "Who said you were fat, I like your figure!" ”

Chen Yulian ignored his mouth, biting lightly, and munching on the roast goose meat on Fluttershy's mouth.

After drinking the "morning tea", Zhang Shaoping checked out and left.

Years ago, whenever Zhang Shaoping had free time, he would take Zhou Huimin, Mi Xue and his little sister Zhang Mengying to various hotels and restaurants from time to time to "drink tea" or eat, sometimes together, sometimes with one person. Since the Spring Festival, Zhang Shaoping's schedule has added Zhong Yihong and Chen Yulian, who will accompany this one in the morning, that one at noon, and another person in the evening. Eleven or two days later, except for the time to go to London, everything is between beauties, and it is so cool that it is not good.

As soon as he got into the car, the big brother's phone rang suddenly, Zhang Shaoping connected "Hey", and Guan Xiaoxiao's voice came from the other end: "Zhang Sheng, let me tell you something, the film company is in trouble, Guang. Dongtai refused to continue to introduce our Hong Kong-produced TV series, and the imported "Jinghua Spring Dream" that was being broadcast was suddenly taken off the shelves. ”

Zhang Shaoping was surprised: "What's the matter? is so dignified, why did he suddenly turn his face? Have you touched a taboo over there? ”

Guan Xiaoxiao had just finished spring break, and was sent to the mainland to be responsible for setting up a toy company to produce the Transformers he made. Although Hong Kong's toy industry has gradually withered in recent years, the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, and the foundation is still there, and there is no shortage of talents at all. Dongguan factory. Because of the affairs of the mainland, Chen Guanzhong was in charge of the magazine, Pan Ming took care of the affairs of the Synjiale fast food restaurant, and the film company and toy factory were handed over to Guan Xiaoxiao.

Zhang Shaoping's film company is called Contemporary Film and Television Development Company, which is actually a leather bag company, and for the time being, it has nothing but distribution business. Although it is a leather bag company, in Zhang Shaoping's mind, the weight is not small. As the only company in Hong Kong that can distribute TV dramas to the mainland, Zhang Shaoping can make friends with the political axe in the north on the one hand, and on the other hand, he can go back and forth between the two TV stations of TVB and ATV, accumulate fame and make contacts, which can be described as a huge harvest.

Suddenly, at this time, he was given such a thing without warning, Zhang Shaoping was not surprised!

Faced with the questioning on the phone, Guan Xiaoxiao categorically denied it, saying: "Zhang Sheng, before I went to the mainland, you repeatedly explained that the political atmosphere here is strong, and you must not be reckless in your words and deeds. And the employees I brought with me are all in Guancheng, which is even more impossible! ”

"The mainland is politically in charge, and pays more attention to the image of the country's political axe, everything must have a reason, and it will never rectify us for no reason!"

Television stations in the mainland are the mouthpieces of the political axe, and every step they take is full of profound meaning.

Zhang Shaoping has always believed that there is no love for no reason in the world, and there is no hate for no reason, and all love and hatred have a source.

He was in an irritable mood for a while, and with a "bang" sound, he slapped on the cold and hard car door. I slapped it too hard, my palm hurt, and I couldn't help but cry out with an "ah".

Guan Xiaoxiao heard the voice, and just wanted to ask what was wrong, when she heard a female voice that was not good: "It's not hurt, right?" What kind of self-harm does Wu Ra play? ”

The female voice has a bit of the charm of a goose's voice, cold and ethereal, Guan Xiaoxiao knew that this was Chen Yulian when she heard it, and sure enough, she heard Zhang Shaoping say happily: "Sister Lian, it turns out that you care about me so much?" ”

"Who cares about you anymore? Flatter yourself! Chen Yulian's face flushed and said.

Guan Xiaoxiao heard the two flirting on the other end of the phone, and secretly complained that Zhang Shaoping was indistinguishable, she always felt that her boss was good at everything, but there was a bad problem - amorous. There are a lot of rich people who play with women, but there are very few people who play with feelings like Zhang Shaoping.

Guan Xiaoxiao hurriedly interrupted the two of them and analyzed: "Zhang Sheng, I think that Guang. Dongtai is not targeting us, but Hong Kong's newspaper media! ”

"Why do you say that?"

"Guang. Director Liu of Dongtai said a few words to me: 'China and Hong Kong are all Chinese. Chinese people', 'don't do things that are good for relatives and enemies', Zhang Sheng, is something happening in Hong Kong? ”

"I just came back from London last night, and I ask who I'm going to ask me to do?" Zhang Shaoping said angrily, and then said, "Let's do it first, I'll see what the situation is, and I'll call you then." ”

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Shaoping asked Chen Yulian: "Sister Lian, I'm going back to the company, where are you going?" Broadcast channel? ”

"I haven't been filming lately, so let's go see my eldest sister."

"Oh."

Chen Yulian's eldest sister, Chen Yumei, is the deputy editor-in-chief of Vogue magazine, responsible for beauty, bodybuilding, and health care.

When she arrived at Dingsheng Culture Company, Chen Yulian went to find her eldest sister by herself, and Zhang Shaoping just asked a secretary to bring all the newspapers of the past few days to the office, and before she could read it, she saw Pan Ming knocking on the door and coming in.

"Hey, aren't you in the capital? When did you return to Hong Kong? Zhang Shaoping was a little surprised when he saw Pan Ming at first, "What to drink?" Coffee or tea? ”

"Tea bar." Pan Ming sat opposite Zhang Shaoping, and the tea would be served by the office secretary equipped by Dingsheng Company, "I came back this time to report something to you!" ”

Zhang Shaoping was not calm, and exclaimed: "You won't tell me that the FamilyFun fast food restaurant is also being troubled by the mainland, right?" ”

Pan Ming looked at him strangely and asked, "No, what do you mean by asking?" ”

"That's right."

Zhang Shaoping mentioned what Guan Xiaoxiao said, and after Pan Ming listened, he took out several newspapers from the pile of newspapers on the table, spread them out, and placed them in front of him.

"You'll know when you look at it!"

Zhang Shaoping picked it up and saw that it was all a polemic on the topic of Hong Kong's return.

Among them, Ming Pao's stance has changed dramatically, and it clearly supports the restoration of sovereignty over Hong Kong after 97 years. In the 60s, Ming Pao's boss, Jim Yong Kim, was known to the world as a staunch opponent of the Communist Party.

But since July of the previous year, he went to the capital for a while, talked with Deng Gong, and after he came back, he completely changed, and he was full of praise for the reform and opening up policy in the north. In the past two years, whenever a public opinion war broke out in Hong Kong, he sounded the horn, charged for the north, and called on the Hong Kong people to support the return of 97.

Kim Yong fell to the mainland, and his best friend Ni Hao ran directly to the Oriental Daily, choking incessantly and splashing dirty water on the mainland. The same three major newspapers in Hong Kong, "Oriental Daily" because of its cooperation with Taiwan. The relationship between the constant slashing and the chaotic relationship has always been classified as a rightist. The two newspapers have always had a feud because of the sales problem, and at this time, even the opposite friend Ni Hao came to help, and Ma Dashao, the boss of the Oriental Newspaper Group, was suddenly happy, and immediately shouted, this is a lot of help for the righteous, and little help for the unjust.

"Lao Pan, I don't see anything wrong! This public opinion war has been going on for several months, and I am tired of watching it. Zhang Shaoping raised the newspaper in his hand and asked Pan Ming puzzled.

A discerning person can see that China and Britain are building momentum for formal negotiations. In fact, this campaign began two years ago, but now it is becoming more intense.

"Look at this one, then."

Pan Ming said, pointing at every newspaper, and the author of the manuscript he pointed to was either writing alone or jointly advocating it, and a name was indispensable.

"Liu Tian. Give? ”

This person's name is Liu Tian. Yes, but Zhang Shaoping had no impression and couldn't help but look at Pan Ming.

"Like the strong woman Deng Lianru, he is a well-known pro-British person, and he became the production director of TVB three years ago at the age of 32."

Deng Lianru and Zhang Shaoping know that this woman is known as the Hong Kong version of the "Iron Lady" and is the most anti-mainland pro-British person. Compared to her legendary achievements, her pure English and not-so-brilliant Chinese are equally impressive. Those who can be classified as such people can be said to be all pawns of the Hong Kong British political axe to "use China to contain China".

"Wait, three years ago? In 1980? Zhang Shaoping remembered, Nima's, at that time, wasn't the mainland issuing a proclamation, saying that the three major tasks would be completed in the 80s? The time is right. Is it a coincidence, or is it a statement by Shao Tycoon? Zhang Shaoping scratched his brain, unable to grasp it.

"Sir Shao is the Queen's pen pal."

Seeing that Zhang Shaoping understood, Pan Ming then woke up again.

Shao Daheng is the first person in the entertainment industry to be knighted in the entertainment industry, and is fortunate to be the so-called "pen pal" with the Queen of England. Here in Hong Kong, high-ranking officials and powerful people in Hong Kong and Britain all gave him three points of face, and even the initial equity of TVB was dominated by American and British funds.

Later generations once said that TVB was a TV station established by Hong Kong natives, and ATV was not welcomed because its predecessor, Lishi, was founded by the British, which was actually a big mistake. Because, from the very beginning, there was no TV station in Hong Kong that was completely controlled by itself.

"I see." Zhang Shaoping nodded, and then asked him, "Then why did you return to Hong Kong?" ”

"That's right, I think there is a big market for hot pot, and I want to open some affiliated hot pot restaurants." As soon as he mentioned this, Pan Ming smiled, "I found out that when it is cold, there are many people eating hot pot in the capital." I think that this hot pot restaurant and kebab can not only be opened in the form of a chain in the mainland, but also can be copied to Hong Kong and Taiwan. In other places, even in Chinatowns abroad, as long as there are Chinese people, business should be bad. ”

As he spoke, Pan Ming took out a stack of planning books from his briefcase and handed them to Zhang Shaoping to read.

"Hot pot?" Zhang Shaoping immediately thought of "Little Fat Sheep", which was indeed quite interesting, but he was still a little hesitant, and while flipping through the planning book, he asked, "If you engage in hot pot, will the FamilyLe fast food restaurant not be able to free up?" You can't slow down the opening of branches, right? ”

In the huge continent, so far, except for a few Russian-style Western restaurants, there is no other foreign Western restaurant, fast food restaurant, Zhang Shaoping's "Family-Friendly Fast Food Restaurant" after entering, there are no competitors, making money is too easy, easier than grabbing. If it weren't for his stubborn suppression and refusal to lower the level of service, maybe at least seven or eight branches would have been opened by now.

Pan Ming patted his chest and promised: "Zhang Sheng, don't worry, this second batch of people who participated in the training is almost ready to work, you have always said that you want to establish a golden brand, I will never mess up." ”

"Okay, you can do it."

"Oh, that's good, Zhang Sheng, I'll go first." After getting Zhang Shaoping's approval, Pan Ming couldn't wait to leave.

"Don't leave yet, it's not too late to leave when something is finalized."

"What's the matter, Zhang Sheng still has something?"

"It's nothing, I thought, I've made a lot of money by opening my own company, it's time to give back to the society and do charity. Family music, prosperous culture, ocean trade, Han and Tang clothing, and magazines, you all have to draw up a reasonable plan, and how much money should be spent on charity every year is appropriate. ”

Zhang Shaoping suddenly jumped to "do charity", which made Pan Ming feel a little unavoidable, and asked in a daze: "What kind of charity is Zhang Sheng going to do?" ”

Zhang Shaoping waved his hand and said: "Do all kinds of charity, and do it every year, and keep doing it!" Whether it's the mainland, Hong Kong, or even Taiwan. b, we should all do charity! ”

said that it was charity, but in fact, for Zhang Shaoping, this was also buying a "peace charm" -- donating money.
