Chapter 144: Zheng Yutong
There is also a big joy in March, that is, "Rocky", which was invested by Xu Guanwu last year, won a number of nominations for the Golden Globe Awards and Academy Awards, and the news caused a sensation throughout Hong Kong.
This is the first time in history that a Hong Kong filmmaker has won a top Hollywood award.
For a time, Xu Guanwu became a hero in the eyes of Hong Kong people, and newspapers introduced his life one after another, praising him for his great contributions to Hong Kong films.
Although Xu Guanwu had long known that "Rocky" would be selected for the Oscars, after the news came, he couldn't help but feel a little excited. If he can win the award, then he will be the first Chinese to win an Academy Award.
This will not only make the movie "Rocky" famous and bring Xu Guanwu tens of millions of dollars in wealth, but also bring him a huge fame, which is much more useful than money.
The three brothers of the Xu family couldn't help but feel proud of him when they learned that the second brother was so amazing.
The eldest brother Xu Guanwen patted Xu Guanwu's shoulder vigorously, "Second brother, you really added glory to our old Xu family this time." ”
"Yes, even if you don't win the award, it's a very glorious thing to be nominated." The third Xu Guanying also said.
"Phew! Crow's beak! The second brother will definitely win the award! Xu Guanjie patted Xu Guanying and said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, I said the wrong thing, the second brother will definitely win the award." Xu Guanying hurriedly changed his words.
For the support of his brother, although Xu Guanwu is modest in his mouth, he is happy in his heart.
Knowing that the Academy Awards would be held in half a month, Xu Guanwen hurriedly bought a dress for Xu Guanwu, saying that Xu Guanwu could not be allowed to wear shabby clothes and lose the face of Hong Kong people.
Upon learning of this news, several clothing companies came to the door to grab business, and would rather post Xu Guanwu's money upside down, but also let him wear a suit produced by his company on the red carpet in Hollywood.
Xu Guanwu gave up other large clothing companies, but chose a small company called Guanqi Western Clothing, which made a clothing company shatter its glasses.
Because Guanqi Dress is a small company, it can't come up with too much money to post upside down. Moreover, it has been established for a short time, and it has no place in the Hong Kong clothing industry at all. So it is the weakest competitiveness among many dress companies today.
The manager of Guanqi Costume was also very surprised, and he didn't understand that Weishenme Xu Guanwu would choose his own small company. To be honest, this opportunity is like pie in the sky for him.
Xu Guanwu was overjoyed when he saw the manager, and not only secretly smiled in his heart, "Who let you fund more Hong Kong films, thank you for the sponsorship of Guanqi Costume at every turn." Even I, who have never been to Hong Kong, know that there is such a brand of Western clothing. ”
In order to thank Xu Guanwu for his appreciation, and in order to show off his works on the red carpet in Hollywood, Guanqi Dress tailor-made ten suits for Xu Guanwu.
There are those who walk the red carpet, those who attend cocktail parties, those who tuxedo, those who wear orthodox suits, and those who wear casual suits...... Two sets of each piece, enough for Xu Guanwu's daily use.
In addition to preparing dresses for himself, Xu Guanwu is also busy working for his wife Zhao Yazhi.
"Ah Zhi, I made you the most beautiful that day." Xu Guanwu hugged his wife and whispered in his ear.
"There are a lot of beauties in Hollywood, how can I compare with others." Zhao Yazhi smiled embarrassedly.
"Why can't you compare, in my mind, you are the most beautiful, wife." Xu Guanwu's mouth was like smeared with honey, and he flattered one by one, "Wait a minute, we will go to a famous jewelry store in Hong Kong, pick out a few more good jewelry, and wait until that day to blind their eyes." ”
"It's good to wear a few pieces of jewelry, and wearing too much looks like a child." Zhao Yazhi pointed.
Xu Guanwu nodded, "Wife, you have more vision than me, wait to pick the best and most expensive, not bad money." ”
At that moment, Xu Guanwu took Zhao Yazhi to Chow Tai Fook jewelry store.
The owner of Chow Tai Fook's jewellery store is Cheng Yu-tung, a well-known Hong Kong tycoon, who not only runs a jewellery and gold business, but also dabbles in real estate. Its new Shijie Real Estate Company is one of the five tigers of Chinese-funded real estate, with countless property buildings. This person's assets are conservatively estimated to be more than HK$2 billion.
Although Xu Guanwu owns 20 commercial office buildings and can be called the king of small land in Hong Kong, he is still quite inferior to Zheng Yutong.
After entering the jewelry store, Zhao Yazhi's eyes sparkled when she saw the sparkling diamonds and gold jewelry.
It is said that women, like dragons in fantasy novels, are naturally interested in shiny things.
Xu Guanwu didn't have money to buy jewelry for girls before, so he hadn't seen it. But now seeing Zhao Yazhi's eyes looking through the window, she can't help but be secretly funny.
"Miss, please help me get these pieces of jewelry." Seeing Zhao Yazhi staring at the diamond necklace on the model's chest with blazing eyes, Xu Guanwu hurriedly said with a smile.
"Those necklaces are very expensive, and we generally don't offer try-ons." The sales lady said in a weird manner, clearly looking down on Xu Guanwu and the others.
Xu Guanwu was slightly stunned.
In urban novels, there are often bloody episodes in which the protagonist pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger, is despised by the salesperson, and then reveals his identity to scare everyone.
"Could it be that this is what happened to me today?" Xu Guanwu thought with some amusement.
To be honest, he has been in Hong Kong for more than a year, and the Hong Kong people he has come into contact with are good, of course, those gangsters are not counted. I didn't expect to let myself encounter such a superb today.
Zhao Yazhi listened to the words of the sales lady, and tasted the contempt hidden in her words, she couldn't help but be a little angry, and she didn't have the mood to continue to appreciate it, "Ah Wu, let's go to another house to buy it." ”
Xu Guanwu nodded, and didn't bother to reason with the sales lady, so he turned around and was about to go out.
"Sir, please stay!" At this moment, I heard a person next to me whisper.
Xu Guanwu looked back and saw that it was a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties, with an ordinary appearance, and he had never seen this person in his memory.
"Sir, is there anything wrong?" Xu Guanwu asked.
"Let me introduce myself, my surname is Zheng, Zheng Yutong." The middle-aged man walked up to him and stretched out his hand to introduce himself.
Xu Guanwu couldn't help but be stunned, wouldn't it be such a coincidence, just visiting a jewelry store, and actually let himself meet a big boss? How low does this have to be?
"Hello, Mr. Zheng!" Xu Guanwu was stunned for a moment, then immediately woke up and shook hands with Zheng Yutong.
"If I'm not mistaken, Your Excellency is Xu Guanwu, Mr. Xu! Really? Zheng Yutong asked with a smile.
Xu Guanwu nodded, "Yes, it's down." ”
"Mr. Xu, just now my staff is not serious about their work, I will deal with it later. Now, may I introduce you to the company's jewelry? Zheng Yutong said with a smile.
Xu Guanwu couldn't help but be surprised, what kind of person is Zheng Yutong, a billionaire with a net worth of billions, a ruthless character who sneezes and the Hong Kong stock market is fluctuating, and now he actually recommends himself as a shopping guide, what is An's mind?
If you want to make amends for the staff and keep Xu Guanwu as a customer, then this reason is too fake.
Xu Guanwu followed behind Zheng Yutong suspiciously, and went directly to the VIP hall on the third floor.
"Our company's jewelry is generally divided into three categories, the jewelry on the lower two floors is A-grade, B-grade, and the VIP hall on the third floor is S-grade." Zheng Yutong introduced, "Mr. Xu doesn't often buy jewelry, so I don't know, I will give the two of you a VIP diamond gold card, and then buy jewelry directly to the third floor." ”
