In mid-May, the temperature in Hong Kong soared, and the air-conditioned high-end cinemas were full for the past two days.

Su Jingxian shrank in the corner of the theater, back. After watching two boring movies, as soon as I came out of the theater, I felt that the heat wave was pressing, and I couldn't help but sneeze under the alternation of hot and cold.

Everything else is okay in this era, but the lifestyle is too old

He originally planned to install two air conditioners in the office building as a benefit for his employees, but after learning about CLP Power, he learned that the power capacity increase in most parts of Hong Kong was not enough to drive the operation of air conditioners, and if he wanted to install air conditioners, he had to re-wire, which would take at least a week.

Work is still more important than enjoyment, in desperation, Su Jingxian had to buy eight electric fans and move into the office building, and then promised employees at the weekly meeting that as long as the performance rises this year, they will be able to enjoy the pleasure of the cold breeze in the theater next summer.

If it weren't for the fact that he was going to the airport to pick up Thompson today, Su Jingxian would still plan to continue blowing the air conditioner in the theater all day, after all, it is now a high temperature of more than 30 degrees outside, even if he is only wearing a thin shirt, he will quickly sweat on the street, which is simply a kind of torture.

But there is no way, Thompson came from afar, and if he didn't pick up the plane in person, he would inevitably be a little unkind.

Driving to Kai Tak Airport, Su Jingxian, who was wearing only a shirt and trousers, parked his car in the shade and rolled down the window, where a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy was pushing a freezer cart, sweating profusely and shouting.

"Why is it so delicious? Fruit rock candy is much more shelf! ”

The shouting with a hint of Yenching accent is hardly heard in Hong Kong in other seasons, except in the summer, when hawkers in freezer trucks and freezer trucks roam around.

Because the production process of this local ice cream was originally transmitted from Yanjing to Guangzhou, and then to Hong Kong. At that time, Hong Kong was tolerant of people of all origins, and many people could not understand Yenching dialect, but they knew that the ice cream that was shouted and sold by this voice was the most authentic.

Maybe it was because he had been shouting for too long and his throat was smoking, and the boy's voice sounded a little hoarse, and he couldn't stop wiping his sweat with the towel on his shoulder, and his face was black and red.

"Here, kid." Seeing that the plane had not yet landed, Su Jingxian stretched out his hand out of the window and knocked on the car door, saying hello to the little boy who was shouting.

The boy, who was originally standing under the sun and exposed to the sun, heard Su Jingxian calling himself, hurriedly pushed the cart to the shade, swallowed hard to moisten his throat, and then said to Su Jingxian in the car: "Boss, are you buying ice cream?" There are five flavors: Bulin, Mango, Lychee, Cherry and Strawberry, which one do you prefer, boss? ”

As the boy spoke, he opened the roof of the freezer and lifted the layers of quilts, revealing the ice cream made by the local method in the freezer.

"Let me think about it first." Su Jingxian noticed that after the boy opened the freezer, he greedily swallowed the white gas coming out of the freezer, and deliberately pondered for a moment before smiling, "Just a lot of strawberries, how much money?" ”

The boy quickly took out a skewer with strawberry-flavored ice cream from the ice cube, inserted the spoon and handed it to Su Jingxian: "Thank you, boss, I will benefit six cents (six cents), and return five cents after eating." ”

Su Jingxian took the sticker, took out a ten-yuan Hong Kong dollar from his wallet and put it on the freezer car, and smiled at the boy: "Don't look for it, the extra money will be my brother to invite you to drink sugar water." ”

Looking at the brand-new 10 Hong Kong dollars on the freezer truck, the boy pinched his arm, and after repeatedly confirming that he was not dreaming, he pushed the freezer cart and left.

Sitting in the car, Su Jingxian scooped the strawberry ice lump with a spoon and looked up at the sky from time to time.

More than ten minutes later, a plane roared over the Kowloon Walled City and slowly landed on the runway of the airport.

Su Jingxian got out of the car with half of the ice cube left, threw the holder into the trash, shook his hand and followed the pick-up crowd to the airport hall.

Among the few white faces in the airport passage, the tall Thompson is particularly eye-catching.

"Welcome to Hong Kong, but didn't Mr. William tell you about the weather in Hong Kong for the past two days?" Hugging Thompson, Su Jingxian patted his crisp blazer and grinned.

Thompson lifted his suitcase again, followed Su Jingxian, and as soon as he walked out of the airport hall, he complained in English: "When the plane landed, I already started to regret not bringing my super shorts, this damn weather!" ”

"This is Hong Kong, and men wearing super shorts will be regarded as perverted, and it's okay not to wear them." Su Jingxian responded with a smile, took Thompson to the front of the car, put the trunk in the back of the car, and waited for him to sit in the passenger seat, then started the car and asked, "How is the United States?" ”

Thompson took off his blazer and shook his head and said, "I don't know which one you're asking?" But to be honest, both at work and in my personal life, it's fucking terrible! ”

Su Jingxian slowed down, turned his face to look at Thompson, and then turned his gaze to the road ahead.

"Let's talk about me first, it's actually related to work. You can't imagine that I was being sued in the United States by the female lunatics of the Feminist Defense Society, who said that our magazine encouraged women to behave badly? Fuck it! The women and men didn't think about that when they were in bed 'French sex'. Thompson folded his suit jacket and threw it in the back seat, "But guess what?" The law is still fair, they acquitted me, and asked the female leader who organized the event to pay me twenty dollars, twenty dollars? Not enough for a maintenance on my new car. ”

Su Jingxian listened to Thompson's complaints, and smiled without squinting: "It's not bad, you have proved with practical actions that our magazine is protected by law and can continue to be published smoothly." ”

"That's the second question I'm going to talk to you about, about work." Thompson straightened his face, "Playboy's sales in the United States in the first week did not meet expectations, but I consulted professionals, and the sales of more than 80,000 copies of an issue of the magazine are already considered hot, after all, we did not advertise it in advance." ”

Su Jingxian nodded, signaling that he was listening.

Thompson let out a sigh and continued: "But it was precisely because of my victory in court that some magazine companies realized the legitimacy of soft pornography, and I got the news that it may not be long before a magazine will appear in the American market." ”

Compared with Thompson's case in court, the second news he said now obviously attracted more attention from Su Jingxian.

Su Jingxian frowned slightly, turned the car out of Kai Tak Road, stepped on the accelerator and rushed to the office building.
