Chapter 348: Barbecue
Lu Jing naturally knows how to deal with Uncle Hu's proportions. He didn't mean to bring down Third Uncle Hu, but he wanted him to understand: The Lu family is not a soft persimmon that he can handle at will, and if he dares to act boldly, he must be prepared to trap himself in it.
When I left the Shangri-La Hotel the next morning to visit Lin Zhongxue at the Liaison Office in Hong Kong, Zhang Li, Ding Ling, Ye Yan, Cai Lu, Jiang Yan, and Huang Yong, who had been shopping all day yesterday, were still resting in their respective rooms. Looking at the posture, I probably won't come out to hang out today.
Follow Lin Zhongxue's secretary into his bright office, and in the morning, there is some coolness in the office that the sun has not yet dissipated. Lin Zhongxue shook hands with Lu Jing with a smile, and he deliberately set aside a morning to chat with Lu Jing. After the shock in October last year, Hong Kong has experience in dealing with the shock of international currency speculators. But the pressure on him is still high.
Asking the secretary to pour a cup of coffee for Lu Jing, Lin Zhongxue said with a smile: "It's like a war, I am always nervous before going to the battlefield. When you fight, you will have the bottom in your heart. Yesterday, Chen Xujiang told you about the specific situation, what is your judgment? ”
Lu Jing drank coffee and smiled: "How can this be easy to say?" Maybe one day there will be a large number of orders for short selling Hong Kong dollars. Now that the U.S. stock market has plummeted and the yen has also fallen sharply, it should be soon. ”
In my memory, on August 5, hedge funds led by the Quantum Fund and the Tiger Fund launched an attack on the Hong Kong dollar. They first borrowed a large amount of Hong Kong dollars from banks and sold them to the Hong Kong government in exchange for US dollars to earn interest, and at the same time sold a large number of Hong Kong stock futures. At one point, the stock index fell to more than 6,600 points.
The Hong Kong government's countermeasures are also targeted: the Hong Kong Monetary Authority uses the Exchange Fund to enter the stock market and futures markets, absorb the Hong Kong dollars sold by international speculators, and then buy Hong Kong dollars into Hong Kong blue chips. Make long-term investments. Stabilize the exchange rate at the level of 7.75 Hong Kong dollars to 1 US dollar. It has caused huge losses to international speculators.
So Lu Jing really doesn't have the idea of breaking the time node now. After all, he is not a financial professional, and the advantage of memory will always disappear one day - he does not think that he will end his life with poisoned alcohol in this life.
Thus. It's better not to be too accurate for now.
"Yes." Lin Zhongxue nodded with a smile, agreeing with Lu Jing's judgment. "You're okay these days, stay and give me a staff officer."
Lu Jing smiled and said, "If Governor Lin wants something to tell me, just give me something." I'll go back to the capital in a few days. "Lin Zhongxue is Uncle He's junior, and Lu Jing can't call him uncle no matter how close he is to Lin Zhongxue. Lin Zhongxue is 41 years old, Lu Jing can't call him Brother Lin, right? So I have always called him by his position.
After chatting until noon, after having lunch with Lin Zhongxue, Lu Jing called Zhang Li, only to know that they had gone out shopping again, which really had to make people admire their enthusiasm for shopping. Huang Yong was a follower in the back, but he was afraid that he would be tired to death.
Lu Jing was not interested in carrying clothes for them - if it was Zhang Li and Ding Ling, he could consider it. Go back to the hotel and turn on the computer to deal with Jinghua's affairs. Jinghua currently needs to do a good job in the marketing of T18. Especially in the marketing of Jiangzhou, we must repel the market offensive of United Technology in Jiangzhou.
Next, Jinghua needs to synthesize the current technology to come up with a mobile phone that can make a name for itself. Lu Jing hopes to win the CCTV bid in November. There can be a mobile phone with outstanding performance, which can impress users and position the mobile phone brand.
"Xiaojing, come to the beach of Repulse Bay for barbecue. We are preparing the materials. At around five o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Li called and interrupted Lu Jing's musings.
"Oh, yes. Are you wearing a swimsuit? Lu Jing said with a smile. As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter over there, and Lu Jing realized that Zhang Li's mobile phone was on speakerphone, and smiled awkwardly.
The bay of Repulse Bay is crescent-shaped, with a gentle slope and a long beach. The waves are calm, the water is clear and the sand is fine. When Lu Jing asked the driver to send him over, it was just as the setting sun cast a brilliant light in the sea, and the blue waves were rippling. The gentle sea breeze blows, soothing the mess.
The beach of Repulse Bay is a tourist attraction, and the beach is crowded with people at this time. There are men and women dressed in a variety of swimsuits. Lu Jing was wearing a T-shirt, big pants, sandals, and a cigarette in his mouth. Head to the east of the beach with anticipation – the barbecue grill is set in the shade of the trees at the eastern end of Repulse Bay.
From afar, I watched Zhang Li and them sitting around a barbecue pit busily, and a few men came to talk to them from time to time. Beauty is in the spotlight at all times.
Ding Ling waved at Lu Jing. Smiling slightly, seeing Lu Jing's dress, he asked, "Aren't you going to swim in the sea?" ”
Her hair was wet and she was wearing cool casual summer clothes, and it looked like she had bathed and changed her clothes after going into the water to swim. yes, I'm really disappointed. Lu Jing said with a smile: "I have no plans to swim in the water at night." ”
The two were talking, and Ye Yan, Cai Lu, and Jiang Yan were all snickering there: Lu Jinglai talked to Zhang Li before he talked to him, but his perverted nature was exposed.
Lu Jing naturally knew what they were laughing at, and asked Jiang Yan, "What about Huang Yong?" ”
"He's carrying beer."
Ye Yan said with a smile: "Lu Jing, what are you looking at with thief's eyes?" Hehe, if you come a little earlier, you might be able to see Xiao Li in a swimsuit. She had just gone to the shower and changed her clothes. ”
Although Lu Jing knew that Ye Yan might use words to fool him, he still couldn't help but shout in his heart that it was a pity. Seeing that they are all casual clothes preparing for barbecue, it is not easy to ask, "Why don't you play in the sea for a while?"
"What can I aim at with your clothes?" Lu Jing said with a smile. Laughing, Mr. Huang came over with a case of beer in two trips – there are many restaurants, fast-food restaurants and supermarkets around the beach.
Zhang Li, Zhao Qingzhi, and Dong Wanyao came out with T-shirts and shorts, and there were still wet droplets on their long hair. Lu Jing thought in his heart that Ye Yan wouldn't tell the truth just now, right? Come a little earlier...,
Zhang Li saw Lu Jing roasting chicken legs, and couldn't help but glance at him coquettishly, "Xiaojing, can you roast it?" ”
"How not?" As soon as Lu Jing finished speaking, he smelled a burning smell. I was distracted for a while. Everyone laughed. Ding Ling bit his lip and smiled. A pair of clear eyes looked at Lu Jing with a smile. She had just scorched a chicken wing and was laughed at by Lu Jing.
The red sun sinks in the west, and the waves crash on the shore. Laughing and eating barbecue, drinking beer with the beautiful scenery of the beach, it is extremely comfortable.
"Cai Lu, Jiang Yan, and Huang Yong will return to the capital tomorrow. Aunt Ye and I will go to Jiaozhou tomorrow to see my mother. Zhang Li said to Lu Jing.
With the light from afar, Lu Jing quietly shook her hand: "En." Say hello to Aunt Zhang for me. I'll go back to the capital a few days later. ”
At seven or eight o'clock, they cleaned up the barbecue mess, and a few people sent Zhao Qingzhi and Dong Wanyao back to Yingwan Park first. I saw a Mercedes Benz parked under a street lamp on the road. A middle-aged man talks to a thin woman with long legs and a thin waist. Lu Jing thought that maybe it was the combination of big money and Xiaomi, and he didn't take a closer look. When he staggered by, the middle-aged man suddenly shouted, "Lu Jing, it's you, right?" Haha, I didn't expect to meet you here. As he spoke, the middle-aged man walked over with a smile and shook hands with Lu Jing.
Lu Jing was slightly stunned, and by the light of the street lamp, he found that it was Chen Chuanghe, and it was his daughter Chen Ruoyi standing next to Mercedes-Benz. Sweating profusely, he held Chen Chuanghe's hand and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet Mr. Chen here." ”
After a few pleasantries, Chen Chuanghe invited: "It's better to meet by chance, if you have time to accompany me to have a cup of coffee." ”
Lu Jing pointed to his big pants and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the café like this." Why don't I go back to the hotel and change my clothes. In his heart, he secretly pondered the meaning of Chen Chuanghe's invitation. Although there is some contact in Indonesian affairs, it is all Chen Xujiang's work. As for Jinghua's business, it has nothing to do with Chen Chuanghe's Chuangyong International business.
Dao Zuo met, why did Chen Chuanghe have the idea of talking to him? (To be continued......)
