New Year's Day.

In the early morning, the sun shines through the clouds on a luxurious villa on the mountainside, surrounded by verdant trees and carefully manicured gardens, and on this day of the new year, the exterior of the villa is decorated with New Year's decorations, bright Chinese knots and red lanterns gently swaying in the breeze.

At this moment, the door of the villa is full of people and bustling, and the inside of the villa, the huge living room is also crowded with people.

Zheng Jirong took the New Year's gift from Jimmy's girlfriend and joked to Jimmy beside her: "Why is the bag so strict, can't you see people with gifts?" ”

"No, no", Jimmy said with a smile: "The first batch of [Champion Cigars] just released by the Brazilian Davidoff Cigar Company is limited to two hundred boxes, and this box was auctioned by me after raising the price many times, Brother Rong should not be too cold." ”

"It's all your own people, what kind of gift do you give for the New Year, it's true."

Zheng Jirong pointed at Jimmy with a smile, and then asked Ruan Mei to take Jimmy's girlfriend Heidi to visit the house, he looked at the backs of the two and said, "Why did you change your girlfriend again, I haven't seen this Heidi before." ”

"She is a highly talented student in the Chinese Department of Hong Kong Island University, and I just met not long ago, and my grandmother likes her very much."

Jimmy's parents died early, and he and his grandmother have been dependent on each other since he was a child, so Zheng Jirong nodded after hearing it and said: "It's good that the old man is satisfied, but let's talk about it"

He glanced at the man next to him, smashed his mouth and said, "You kid seems to be very fond of talented women, and the girlfriend he talked about is either a talented student or a female writer." ”

Jimmy shrugged his shoulders and said innocently, "I just want to improve too much." ”

"Hahaha", Zheng Jirong smiled and patted Jimmy's back and led him to the sofa to sit down.

He then pointed to the people in the hall who came to pay New Year's greetings and said to Jimmy: "Speaking of which, I thought that there would be a lot of people coming to pay New Year's greetings today, but the number of people who came was really beyond my expectations. ”

"yes", Jimmy looked around, nodded and sighed, "Who would have thought we could do this a year ago." ”

The identities of these people in the living room are complicated, district councilors, celebrities, wealthy merchants, and community representatives.

But today they are only here to take advantage of the festival to show favor to the underground emperor of Kowloon, Mr. Cheng.

While Zheng Jirong was talking to Jimmy, a slightly bald man with a pair of glasses straightened his collar to the reflection on the glass, and then walked up to Zheng Jirong with a wine glass.

"Hello Mr. Zheng, I wish you a happy and auspicious New Year, I am the councilor of Yau Tsim Mong District, Jian Dingchi, you can just call me Ah Chi, this is my business card."

Zheng Jirong took the business card he handed over, glanced at it, and asked with a smile: "It turned out to be Councilor Jian, I'm really embarrassed, I have too many guests here, and I am a little sluggish for a while, don't mind." ”

"How could it be", Jian Dingchi said with a smile: "Mr. Zheng has every opportunity, having you is really a blessing for us in Yau Tsim Mong District." ”

Looking at the flattering smile on the face of this councilor surnamed Jane, Zheng Jirong really couldn't tell whether he was telling the truth or the opposite for a while, so he asked directly: "Councilor Jian seems to have something to tell me, if it's convenient, you might as well say it directly." ”

"Hahaha, Mr. Zheng is really fast."

Jian Dingchi bent down and smiled, and then said directly: "I have always been a councillor in Wan Chai before, but I have returned to our Yau Tsim Mong district during this time,"

"Wow, as soon as I came, I was hooked here, not only the economy is good, but the security is better!"

"You don't have to worry about robbery and theft during the day, and you don't have to be afraid of those bikers at night, it's such a good place!"

"So I hope that when the next Yau Tsim Mong District Council is elected, Mr. Cheng can call on your tens of thousands of employees to vote for my sacred vote."

"Let's revitalise West Kowloon together! Revitalize Yau Tsim Wang! ”

It turned out to be for this matter, Zheng Jirong glanced at Jimmy on the side after hearing this, and then asked with a frown: "Jimmy, I heard that dozens of fishing boats in the group seem to have been detained by the customs recently because of some things, is there such a thing?" ”

"Yes, they said that our logistics company is privately using these ships to engage in smuggling, so."

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, this must be a misunderstanding", Jimmy's words were interrupted by Jian Dingchi, he assured the two: "I will go back to them to clarify the misunderstanding, Mr. Zheng, you are our leading taxpayer in Yau Tsim Mong District, how can you engage in smuggling, you can rest assured, I will help you find justice in this matter!" ”

"Oh"

Zheng Jirong tilted his head when he heard this, raised his wine glass and smiled faintly at him: "Then it's troublesome Councilor Jian." ”

"Haha, politely, it's me who troubles you, Mr. Zheng."

After sending off this groveling parliamentarian, other people around him also came up to greet him warmly, and they didn't leave after giving gifts, just to be able to have a few more words with Zheng Jirong and leave a familiar face.

After all, in Kowloon, Mr. Cheng's words are more effective than those of the Hong Kong Zhengfu.

At this time, two more men walked in outside the door of the living room, and the appearance of one of them instantly attracted the attention of many people present.

Asia's No. 1 Kung Fu Superstar - Long Wei!

After he came in and saw Zheng Jirong in the center of the crowd, he quickly stepped up and stretched out his hand and said, "Hello Mr. Zheng, I wish you a good New Year." ”

"Hahaha", Zheng Jirong said with a smile: "Ah Wei, you have a heart." ”

"It should be", Long Wei said gratefully: "If it weren't for you, Mr. Zheng, I would have died in the Cointreau Hotel a long time ago."

"Hey, don't say this kind of thing during the New Year, Ah Wei, you have your own natural appearance, don't think nonsense."

Zheng Jirong pretended to be displeased and patted the back of his hand, and then smiled at Li Jie, who was carrying a gift on the side: "Bold, we haven't seen each other for a long time, and you kid won't come to see me when you have time." ”

Li Jie put the gift on the table and grinned: "I'm sorry Brother Rong, I've been filming with Ah Wei in the desert recently, and I just returned to Hong Kong two days ago." ”

"What kind of big drama is filmed, you have to go to the desert."

Long Wei explained: "In an adventure movie, the protagonist goes to the desert to find a group of gold left by the evacuation of German NC officers. ”

"Oh?" Zheng Jirong exclaimed: "It's very interesting just to listen to it, remember to send me a copy of the invitation to the premiere when the time comes." ”

"Definitely, I heard that Mr. Zheng has also opened a film company recently, what's the use of my Longwei, Mr. Zheng, just ask."

"Okay, that's a deal."

Zheng Jirong saw that this kid was so good, and he deliberately asked with great joy in his heart: "Ah Wei, do you think there will really be gold left by NC in the desert?" ”

"Amount"

Long Wei thought for a while and then shook his head and said: "This is really not accurate, our screenwriter has checked the information before, saying that there is a high possibility of gold, but this matter has nothing to do with me, after all, I am not really a treasure hunter." ”

Zheng Jirong nodded, it was actually very simple to know if there was gold in the desert, just find out if there was a big-nosed treasure hunter named Jackie in this world.

In his reverie, he suddenly noticed that his trouser legs had been pulled twice, and when he looked down, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Whose little beauty is this, it's so beautiful." Zheng Jirong bent down to pick up Xinxin and pulled her mouth.

"Uncle Zheng, don't you remember me, I'm Xinxin, and my dad is Qiu Jie."

Zheng Jirong chuckled when he heard it: "Of course I remember, if you forget anyone, you can't forget our Xinxin." ”

He then joked to Qiu Jie, who brought Xinxin over, "Ajie, bring Xinxin over early in the morning to ask for a red envelope." ”

"This girl got up before dawn to put on new clothes, and pulled me to come to pay New Year's greetings to Brother Rong." Qiu Jie said helplessly.

"Hahaha", seeing the little girl come out of the shadow of her abused childhood, Zheng Jirong was happy from the bottom of his heart, he took out a stack of prepared red envelopes from his pocket, stuffed them all into Xinxin's arms, touched her head and smiled: "Remember to come over next year to greet Uncle Zheng for the New Year." ”

"Hmm!" Xinxin nodded heavily in agreement, and then kissed Zheng Jirong on the cheek.

After putting down Xinxin and letting her go to the yard to play by herself, Zheng Jirong saw her cheerful and lively appearance now, and said to Qiu Jie: "It seems that the psychiatrist has good ability, and Xinxin's treatment is very successful." ”

"Yes", Qiu Jie nodded and said, "Thank you, Brother Rong, without you, I really don't know what our father and daughter would be like now." ”

"Hey, don't say such things to your own brother."

Zheng Jirong sat down with his shoulders around and chatted with him about the recent gambling boat, and when it came to the upcoming Charity Poker King Tournament, Qiu Jie suddenly expressed his willingness to participate as well.

Zheng Jirong was surprised when he found out: "Ajie, it stands to reason that I should support you, but now that you are a father now, I thought you wouldn't care about these fame and fortune." ”

Qiu Jie explained: "I really didn't have much interest in these originally, but I heard some news that in order to expand the influence of the event, the organizers directly invited all the gambling masters in the world this time, such as Gao Jin Lei Li Chen Jincheng, and other famous gambling bigwigs will participate, so I am only."

Seeing this, Zheng Jirong instantly understood, after all, Qiu Jie has learned gambling since he was a child, and being able to compete with these gambling bigwigs on the same stage may be his dream for many years.

He patted Qiu Jie's shoulder and smiled: "Ajie, as long as you have confidence, I will support you, no matter what kind of gambler he is, I will wait to see you and Ah Xing overthrow them!" ”

"Thank you, Brother Rong!"

At this time, a crackling firecracker suddenly sounded outside the gate, which attracted the attention of many people.

Seeing this, Zheng Jirong turned his head to take a look, and happened to see Sonny wearing a red suit and a group of younger brothers, walking in with a spring breeze on his face.

"Brother Rong! Happy New Year! Upon seeing him, Sonny enthusiastically stepped forward with his arms outstretched and shouted.

Zheng Jirong slapped him twice on the back, and asked with a smile: "Didn't you go back to Wandao to accompany the old man for the New Year, why did you come back early in the morning?" ”

"I have to come early to greet the boss for your New Year, by the way, this is a friend I met on Bay Island, I heard that I am going to give Brother Rong a New Year's greeting, and I also want to come to see the world." Sonny pointed to a middle-aged man beside him who was a little thin but looked energetic.

"Oh? You are? Zheng Jirong set his eyes on him.

"Great! Sound! Hair! He grinned, then stretched out his hand and shook his head and shouted, "Brother Rong, Brother Rong!! ”

"Amount"

Zheng Jirong was stunned, he didn't expect this guy to be so enthusiastic when they met for the first time, and after shaking his hand, Zheng Jirong looked at the four little brothers holding glass boxes behind Sonny, and asked curiously: "What's the situation, why do you want to give a gift and cover it with a cloth." ”

"Didn't I want to surprise you, Boss."

Sonny waved his hand behind him, and the four younger brothers immediately tore open the red cloth on the glass box, it turned out that there was a gold medal dozens of centimeters long in each box, and each gold medal was engraved with words, which together were exactly the four big characters of [Wealth and Glory]!

Many people around sighed in surprise when they saw this, Sonny smiled with satisfaction when he saw this, and then introduced to Zheng Jirong: "Brother Rong, these are thousands of pure gold, just like you, boss, the real value, real materials, and it also symbolizes your noble identity, boss!" You're right? ”

When the people around heard it, they all applauded in agreement.

Zheng Jirong looked at the four gold medals, although he felt a little extravagant and wasteful, but after all, this was the intention of his subordinates, and he should be happy with such a filial brother.

Taking Sonny's lit cigar, he pointed to the gold medal and said, "I usually hate to receive some expensive gifts, but gold is a good gift, after all, this is also a work of art, in addition to appreciating the value, it can also cultivate the mood." ”

He nodded at Sonny and said, "You have a heart this time." ”

"Brother Rong, it's good if you're satisfied!"

It's just that Sonny hasn't been happy for long, and the twelve young people also walked in with a group of people, and they were also followed by the little brother holding the glass box, but the number of little brothers has changed from four on Sonny's side to more than a dozen.

"Brother Rong! Happy New Year! I wish you all the best this year!! ”

"You two boys made an appointment, didn't you?" Zheng Jirong patted him on the back and asked.

"Agreed? With whom? ”

Twelve Shao looked around at the people around him, and when he saw Sunny and the four little brothers holding gold medals beside him, he smiled disdainfully: "You Bay Island people are really stingy, Brother Rong handed over a large area of Kwun Tong to you, and you brought so many people over to give gifts to the boss?" ”

Loudly said unhappily when he saw this: "I'm not human, am I?! I to the end."

"Huh", Sonny stopped the loud voice of the anxious son, and said to the twelve young people: "What's the use of having more people, the most important thing to give a gift is the mind and value, what is the use of giving more things that are worthless." ”

Loudly followed: "Do you understand? People ask if you have any money?! ”

The twelve young men glared at the loud voice beside Sonny, pointed to the little brother who was carrying the glass box behind him, and introduced to Zheng Jirong, who was watching the play on the side: "Boss, I know that you are indifferent to fame and fortune, and the last thing you care about is the mundane things like glory and wealth, so I specially asked someone to create it and give you this great gift!" ”

When the words fell, the little brothers behind him all stood in a row, and everyone lifted the red cloth in their hands.

The gold medal is also a gold medal of tens of centimeters in length, but the words on it have changed from [Wealth and Glory] sent by Sonny to [Carry on the past and open up the future with glory and long, radiant and new chapter]!

"Good!"

After Zheng Jirong saw this line of words, he nodded in surprise and said: "Twelve young people, you kid has a heart, I am very satisfied with this line of words!" ”

"Hahaha!"

The twelve young men glanced at the unhappy Sonny, and happily bowed his head to Zheng Jirong and smiled: "Boss, it's good that you are satisfied!" ”

Just when he was happy, someone behind him suddenly shouted: "Twelve Shao, you are too stingy, the boss is so good to us, you will send a few gold medals to make up the number?!" ”
