Chapter 519: The Great Arrival

September 20 was just an ordinary day for Hong Kong people, but many people who lived in or passed through the area from Hong Kong's Kai Tak Airport to Deep Water Bay found an unusual place early in the morning, and only felt that there were not only many more police patrolling the streets today than in the past, but also more serious on duty, and even police officers were on duty with police dogs, which was almost unprecedented in ordinary patrols. In addition, at every intersection, no matter how big or small, there must be traffic police standing guard. These visions are puzzling.

Since 9 a.m., people in this area can often see Gufu's Rolls-Royce convoy passing by on the road, and every time there are police motorcycles driving in front. At this point, some citizens came to their senses, it turned out that overseas guests (Hong Kong is not a country, it is a bit inappropriate to use 'abroad') came to attend the first birthday banquet of Gu Chen's eldest daughter, but what are the identities of these guests? For the Hong Kong government to pay so much attention, not only has it specially strengthened security, but also sent mounted police to open the way, which is by no means a treatment that ordinary people can have.

As time goes by, people's doubts become deeper and deeper, because almost every ten or twenty minutes there will be a convoy of convoys passing by, think about it, every once in a while there is a convoy of Rolls-Royce driving by, and there are driving sirens in front of the road to open the road, plus those police and traffic police on the street who are on duty seriously, I don't know what important international conference is held in Hong Kong, and senior officials from various countries gather in Hong Kong.

It wasn't until after lunch that news began to spread that a middle-aged man glanced at a motorcade of cars passing by outside Kai Tak Airport at a cigarette shop on the side of the road. He asked the shopkeeper in front of him, "Have you counted the first time?" ”

The shopkeeper chuckled while making tea, "Hehe, I'm interested in counting at first." Later, there was no such leisure after many times, anyway, this is a happy event with few people, what do we small citizens worry about, but Hong Kong's No. 1 wealthy family is extraordinary. ”

The middle-aged man took a sip of tea: "Naturally, it is extraordinary, according to the current situation, Chen Shao is estimated not to hold a wedding banquet in his life, this time he is nominally celebrating his daughter's first birthday." Maybe it's actually a make-up wedding banquet for yourself, which is said in many newspapers. ”

The shopkeeper nodded: "It makes sense, otherwise it's just my daughter's birthday." Although she is the eldest daughter, it seems that there is no need to make it so grand. Do you know who was sitting in the convoy that just passed? Seeing the middle-aged man's puzzled gaze, he smiled proudly, and then said lightly: "I called my daughter who works in the newspaper at lunch just now, and I heard her say that these people are all big people. There are the sons of the Prime Minister of Singapore, Lee Hsien Loong and his wife, the Crown Prince of Perak in Malaysia, the son of the President of the United States, the Prime Minister of Australia, Hawke, and the British Crown Prince Charles, and so on. There are dozens of them, each of whom is a person with high status in the political and business circles of various countries, and with so many big figures gathered in Hong Kong, it is no wonder that the Hong Kong government is so nervous about security issues. ”

"Even the Prime Minister of Australia and Prince Charles are here? It's just a one-year banquet, and there are so many big people here, Chen Shao's face is really big. The middle-aged man was a little shocked, no matter what Gu Chen's real purpose was for this banquet, but please post it and write it clearly that it was a birthday banquet. Naturally, there is no need for a wedding banquet for the first birthday party, and so many big people can still work. I'm afraid it's not just a matter of face.

"That is, Chen Shao and Mrs. Thatcher have always had a good personal relationship, and he is a hereditary nobleman in the United Kingdom, and his personal relationship with Prince Charles is also good, so I heard that Mrs. Thatcher and the British royal family have received invitations, but after all, Mrs. Thatcher is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, and her personality has always been tough, so in the end, Prince Charles came to participate in a private capacity on behalf of the British royal family and Mrs. Thatcher."

"As for the Australian Prime Minister, he also came in a private capacity, in fact, not only Prince Charles and the Australian Prime Minister, but all those who have government positions are participating in their private capacity, after all, Chen Shao is just a businessman in the final analysis, and he is still different from the leaders of those countries."

"The difference is different, this is already very powerful, it seems that tomorrow's newspaper must be read, there must be big news, by the way, what other big people are there? Let's talk a little more, and eh, there's another convoy coming by. As the middle-aged man spoke, another motorcade drove past the store......

Gu Chen was chatting with Prince Charles in a luxurious and spacious guest room, the two were talking and laughing, the atmosphere was very pleasant, and suddenly heard the butler report that Bush Jr. had arrived, and immediately said to Prince Charles: "I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness the Prince, I have something to lose with you first." ”

Prince Charles smiled and said, "It's okay, Mr. Gu is busy, because of the time difference, I also need to take a break." ”

Gu Chen got up and shook Prince Charles' hand: "Then His Royal Highness the prince has a good rest, if you have anything, please do not hesitate to tell the servants." After saying that, he left the room, outside was a long corridor, and he could see at least two big men standing outside each door, these were the bodyguards of every guest, although there were only two bodyguards outside the door of Prince Charles's room, but this was his own request.

These two bodyguards are Prince Charles's usual personal bodyguards, both retired from the most elite special forces in the United Kingdom, the elite of the real elite, after arriving in Hong Kong, Wilson was supposed to send him additional bodyguards, but he refused, and handed over the security work to Gu Chen, which is not only a kind of goodwill to Gu Chen, but also a trust in Gu Chen. The same is true for most of the other guests.

This is a heavy burden, in order to ensure the safety of all guests, the Tang Dynasty security company sent 300 additional bodyguards to Fengyuan, these bodyguards not only enhance the security intensity of Fengyuan, but also will be responsible for protecting the safety of every overseas guest in Hong Kong, until they leave Hong Kong, it is no exaggeration to say that the current Fengyuan is definitely the safest place in Hong Kong except for the barracks of the British garrison.

In addition to the bodyguards, there is also a maid dressed in a maid's uniform standing outside each room, who will be ready to accept the summons of the guests in the room.

Gu Chen stood at the gate of the mansion for a while, and a convoy drove over, and the white extended Rolls-Royce in the middle stopped not far in front of him, and then Bush Jr. got out of the car, Gu Chen stepped forward quickly and hugged Bush Jr. heavily: "George, long time no see." ”

"Hehe, it's been a long time." George W. Bush smiled, then said apologetically: "I'm sorry, you know my father has official duties......

Gu Chen interrupted Bush Jr.'s words: "I fully understand this, old George is really inconvenient to come, I'm very happy that you can come." ”

As the president of the United States, during his term of office, the United States was represented by his words and deeds, and even if he emphasized that it was his private will, the media and the public would think that there was some unusual meaning behind it, and in a sense, at least during his presidential term, the private freedom of the US president was very limited. In this case, he naturally couldn't come to the dinner today.

"It's a must, I have to find time no matter how busy I am, and I'm not alone today." With Bush's voice, two children's voices sounded: "Gu ......" and then saw two cute white girls running from the other side of the car.

These two little girls are none other than the twin daughters of George W. Bush, and the two little girls have grown a lot taller than the last time they met.

Gu Chen squatted down in surprise, opened his arms, hugged the two little girls, and then kissed the two little girls on the faces: "It's a pleasure to meet you, you have grown a lot taller than the last time we met, but Jenna, have you forgotten what I told you last time?" Don't eat too much sweet things, like your sister, so that you can become a beautiful and beautiful lady when you grow up later? ”

Because of the difference in diet, although little Barbara and little Jenna are twins, as they grow older, little Jenna's body shape gradually develops horizontally, and in comparison, little Barbara is much slimmer. Because of this, the faces of the two have become slightly different.

At this time, Gu Chen got up and hugged Laura, who was following behind the two little girls, and made a close salute: "Madam, your arrival is very welcome." ”

"Today is a day to celebrate, George and I have to come." As she spoke, Laura looked at little Barbara and little Jenna and smiled and said, "Originally, they were going to school today, but when they heard that George and I were coming to Hong Kong, they started to quarrel, and there was no way, so I had to ask for leave from school." ”

"I think it's a wise decision." As soon as these words came out, the three of them laughed, and then Gu Chen led Bush Jr. and Laura to the Peony Hall to sit for a while, during which Gu Chen introduced Gu Xiahua, Lin Lifang, Liu Huiyun and his ten wives to Bush Jr. and Laura, and the two of them also prepared gifts for the three old people and today's little birthday star, giving Gu Xiahua an ancient inkstone carved with a dragon head, which is a cultural relic of the Qing Dynasty, and later went overseas for historical reasons; What was given to Lin Lifang was a piece of ancient jade, and looking at the shape and quality, it was also very old; What was given to Liu Huiyun was a pair of white fat jade bracelets, which were very beautiful in color; And what was given to the little birthday star Gu Yachen was a princess tiara inlaid with a cat's eye diamond in the center, each of which was worth a lot of money.

Then Gu Chen personally took the four of Bush Jr. to the fourth floor and arranged the four of them in a suite, yes, he did not arrange the four of Bush Jr. to the guest room on the side floor like everyone else, but directly arranged them in the mansion, this kind of doing was naturally Gu Chen's intention, even if in order to avoid making Bush Jr. feel that he was no different from other guests, it was also that he wanted to be closer to Bush Jr. (To be continued......)
