Chapter 57: Heart-to-Heart Talk
The night is dark, the sea breeze is blowing, the waves are rippling, and the mast is like a forest. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In front of the hall of the Royal Yacht Club of Hong Kong in Chili Island, Shen Chong handed the stop sign to the doorman, motioned for him to drive the car over, and then stood aside and chatted with a few friends.
"Allen, you play too carefully, otherwise the harvest will be even greater tonight."
"There's no harm in being cautious at the table."
"It's not like what you're going to do in the investment market...... Don't forget, you owe me a bottle of champagne. ”
"I can't forget, I'll send it to your office tomorrow."
While he was greeting, Ning Ning, who was wearing a white evening dress, was also dealing with an Englishman in a suit and leather shoes, this guy was a tourist to Hong Kong, and it was said that he was still a nobleman with the title of viscount.
"Miss Ning Ning, it's a great honor to meet you, and I hope tonight's party didn't disappoint you."
"Mr. Laurence, tonight's party was very good, I loved it, thank you for the invitation."
The doorman quickly drove the Porsche over, Shen Chong waved his hand casually, said goodbye to everyone, and then took Ning Ning into the car and left the yacht club.
"Did Brother Shen win tonight?"
"No, I lost a little more than 50,000."
"Yikes! Lose so much? Aren't you the god of wealth, how can you lose money. ”
"The God of Wealth and the God of Gambling are two immortals." Shen Chong smiled and said, "How are you?" Have you ever seen a pleasing wishful man at night? That guy looks good. ”
"Brother Shen, you're talking nonsense again!" Ning Ning grimaced and said, "That guy is oily-haired, pretentious, and arrogant all over his body, which is not interesting at all. ”
"I'm not talking nonsense, tonight is a sight to sell the eldest lady of the Ning family to unscrupulous capitalists in Hong Kong." Shen Chong smiled and quipped: "Since I am not satisfied, then I will have another party in a few days, and I must satisfy Miss Ning Ning." ”
Ning Ning snorted a little embarrassed, and turned her head sideways to look at the night scene outside the car.
Shen Chong waited for a while, but didn't wait for a reply, so he peeked and found that she had a cold face, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she felt that the joke was a bit too much, so she quickly explained: "Don't take it seriously, I see that after you came back from Beijing, you seem to be a little unhappy, so I took you out tonight to relax, not to sell you." ”
"Brother Shen, you are really." Ning Ning glanced at him, pouted and complained: "I'm alone in Hong Kong, it's already pitiful enough, you still make fun of me and bully me." ”
Ning Ning's parents are both southerners, but she grew up in the north since she was a child, and her personality has both the strengths of the north and the south, both delicate and atmospheric, gentle and firm, as refreshing and translucent as a sunny day after a heavy snowfall, Shen Chong saw her talking like this, knew that she was not angry, breathed a sigh of relief, nodded with her finger, and commented: "Your tone, and your expression, are as contrived as the TVB TV series performed by Tianbao, no wonder it was cut." ”
Tianbao starred in TVB's annual drama "Rotation", originally planned to shoot 80 episodes, premiered on August 4, but was beaten by Li's TV's "Kindness of the Earth", and was hastily cut after 15 episodes, and when Tianbao came back from Beijing, he found that the roles he played had not yet had time to appear, and he cried angrily......
Ning Ning pursed her lips and smiled, threatening: "When I get home, I will tell Tianbao and make you unable to live overnight." ”
"Her sister is at home, this ghost girl is trying to mess around." Shen Chong looked at her with a smile on her face, and seemed to be in a good mood, so he held the steering wheel with his left hand, grabbed the back of his head with his right hand, and said a little cluelessly: "Actually...... Don't worry too much about the gossip. ”
Even the Taiwanese know about the rumors in Beijing, not to mention the parties involved......
Ning Ning was silent, and after a while, he whispered, "I didn't care." ”
Then she raised her head, looked at Shen Chong with bright and clear eyes, and emphasized: "Brother Shen, I really don't care." ”
Although Shen Chong is flamboyant from time to time, he is not a master of picking up girls in essence, Li Kaiyuan is a "childhood sweetheart" and half a push, Zhang Aijia was helped by Sister Yuan Yuan, so he doesn't know much about the girl's careful thinking, and when he saw Ning Ning say this, he didn't take it to heart, so he asked: "Then you are always in a daze these days, what is it for?" ”
"I think I'm pretty useless." Ning Ning sighed softly, clasped her hands on her shoulders, and said: "I always thought that I was very smart and capable, but this time I went back to Beijing to work as an interpreter for the economic and trade mission, only to find that I didn't know anything, I didn't understand anything, and I made a lot of jokes." ”
"You're still young, just go through the experience." Shen Chong was relieved: "The mainland has been closed for decades, the system is rigid, the information is not smooth, the efficiency is low, and problems are inevitable. ”
"Brother Shen, I am 19 years old this year, and you are 22 years old, only three years older than me!" Ning Ning raised her green fingers, shook them in front of him, and said, "You are already a world-famous entrepreneur, but I am a yellow-haired girl who can't even translate." ”
"I'm only 22?!" Shen Chong was shocked and said, "I always thought I was 32." ”
Ning Ning was stunned, and reminded with a smile: "You have a birthday in December, strictly speaking, you are not yet 22 years old, but you have been mixing with those middle-aged and elderly people in their forties and fifties, and you have forgotten your age." ”
Shen Chong only remembered the birthday of his previous life, and he never paid attention to the birthday of this life, he turned the steering wheel and drove into the Ma Ji Xianxia Road leading to the middle of the mountain, and asked casually: "Ning Ning, when is your birthday?" ”
"I won't tell you."
"If you don't talk about it, you won't have a birthday present."
"Not unusual." Ning Ning was very childish and arrogant, and then whispered: "I'm also December." ”
"What a coincidence, it's a birthday in the same month, which day?"
"Three days later than you."
Shen Chong didn't have any concept of birthdays or festivals, he sighed, he didn't care, he concentrated on driving, Ma Jixian Gorge Road is not far from Baijia Road, about two or three minutes away, before turning into Baijia Road, Ning Ning suddenly said: "Brother Shen, can you stop on the side of the road for a while?" ”
"What's wrong?"
"I want to have a few words with you."
Shen Chong was slightly surprised, but he still slowed down, stopped on the side of the road, pulled down the handbrake, and asked, "What did you say?" ”
"That ......" Ning Ning lowered his head slightly, not knowing whether to avoid his gaze or organize his words, and only said after half a sound: "Brother Shen, I am very confused now, I feel as if I have no goal in life...... You and Sister Yuan Yuan are busy every day, there is endless work, Uncle Li and Aunt Liu are also busy with their own affairs every day, and Sister Xiaoyue is too, every time I call her, she is either busy with classes or work, and even ...... Even Tianbao has his own ideas, and he wants to be a big star wholeheartedly, learning to play the piano and learn to dance, but I don't know what I want to do, and I don't know what I can do......"
Shen Chong's heart was full of pity, although this girl has no worries about food and clothing, and her personality is tenacious and self-reliant, but after all, she is only a 19-year-old girl, in China in 1980, not to mention a 19-year-old girl, she is a 29-year-old adult uncle, and she may not know what to do in the future......
Usually ignore her mood and feelings......
"Ning Ning, if you want to be more relaxed, do what you like, and if you think about it a little more fulfilling, do what you are interested in."
"Aren't these two the same?"
"It's different, what you like is a hobby, such as literature, music or something, what you are interested in is work, such as finance, industry, opening a factory, doing foreign trade, etc."
"I want to do what I'm interested in." Ning Ning almost didn't hesitate, so she chose the second one, then hesitated for a moment, and said: "I have a cousin who wants to come to Hong Kong to open a foreign trade import and export company, let me do it with her, Brother Shen, do you think I want to go?" ”
After Ning Ning's mother was also a high-ranking official, her cousins were naturally also the second generation of officials, and nine out of ten of the foreign trade companies opened by the second generation in the early 80s were bought and sold by taking advantage of the loopholes in mainland policies......
"You're interested in this?"
"I'm not very interested, it's just ......" Ning Ning muttered a little embarrassed: "The money I earned from my part-time job in the past two months is not as much as the chips you lost in one night, and Tianbao still has hundreds of thousands of dollars in deposits." ”
The old man of the Ning family has very strict requirements for Ning Ning, only sending 1,000 Hong Kong dollars of living expenses through China Resources Company every month, and clearly states that Shen Chong is not allowed to subsidize, otherwise she will be allowed to move out, Ning Ning worked as a trainee secretary for Li Kaiyuan for a month in July, with a monthly salary of 5,000 Hong Kong dollars, and when he returned to Beijing in August, he worked as a translator for several Americans in the Foreign Economic and Trade Mission, earning 10,000 US dollars, in addition, there is no income, in Hong Kong, in this flower world, a young girl lives in a luxury villa, but the purse is only tens of thousands of yuan, The psychological gap is indeed a bit big......
"A big husband can't be without power for a day, and a little woman can't be without money for a day." Shen Chong smiled and said, "Ning Ning, if you want to make money, tens of millions a year is not a problem, but before making money, you have to think about a question first, is money important or career important?" ”
"How?"
"If you just want to make money, money and power trading, easy and fast, but easy to fall into the hands of people, can only make a small fuss, see no one, if you want to do a business, money and power association, solid foundation, broad prospects, just hard work, very tired and hard."
"Brother Shen, you're here again, what kind of money and power, it's all illegal, can't you do some legitimate business?"
"Nonsense, money and power are a natural pair, and they can never be separated from each other, where is the crime? If you want to do great things, money and power are indispensable. Shen Chong clenched his hands into fists, waved in front of Ning Ning, and said, "To fight, you need two fists together." ”
"Brother Shen, you are very weak in fighting, okay?" Ning Ning laughed and teased him, and then asked Qiaoshengsheng: "Which industry do I want to do in order to make money...... Marriage? ”
"With my financial resources and your family's power, any industry will do." Shen Chong didn't pay attention to Ning Ning's accent, he leaned on the steering wheel and said with a big sting: "Pick a direction you like, and point where to hit!" ”
"Then I'll think about it first."
"You think slowly, you can think about it for three or five years, anyway, you are young, don't worry." Shen Chong sat upright, dialed the car key, and asked, "Is there anything else?" ”
Ning Ning bit her thin red lips, looked at him with eyes like a bright moon, and asked softly, "Brother Shen, do you care about those gossips?" ”
"I'm a man, what do I care about? I wish all the women in the world would throw themselves into my arms. Shen Chong laughed, he twisted the key, started the car, and said, "Especially a gentle, beautiful and watery girl like Ning Ning." ”
"Brother Shen, you are such a big pervert!"
