The Goddess Shines on America

The South Horizons Peninsula in the southeast of Hong Kong Island is about three kilometers away from Lamma Island in the southeast. This is where the Hong Kong Electric Company is located. Of course, the power plant was built on Lamma Island in the southeast, and the headquarters building and the three-dimensional parking lot building stand on Haiyi Plaza.

The scenery here is pleasant, the company building is surrounded by a piece of lush greenery, and the outer circle is the blue sea water. No one doubts that the houses built here at this time will soon be demolished and converted into high-quality high-rise residential houses, it's just not the time yet.

It was early in the morning at 8 o'clock in the morning, which was one of the busiest traffic hours of the day. A large number of office workers took the subway and bus to the company, and the lanes were full of various types of private cars. The closer to the company, the higher the rent, and the farther away from the company, the traffic is inconvenient. Many white-collar workers suffer from this kind of hardship and tiredness every day, but how many open-air workers are envious of it.

But this is completely different for Hong Kong Electric Company.

Although the residential buildings around the square were all built decades ago, looking back at history, they will certainly not be the opponents of the company founded in 1889. Originally located at the southernmost tip of Hong Kong, if a large number of employees are required to commute between Kowloon and the New Territories and the local area every day, and cross the entire city back and forth every day, how can the employees bear it? Therefore, this residential building has long been the property of the company, and the happy employees all have comfortable staff dormitories to live in. The cohesion of the company is not generally strong.

But not everyone lives near Haiyi Plaza. Just when it was time to go to work, a low-key, luxurious and connotative black old Rolls-Royce extended car slowly drove to the entrance of the parking lot, and then stopped steadily.

A handsome young man opened the back door and walked out, then turned around: "Alice, please..."

Before he finished speaking, the door on the other side had already opened, but it wasn't just a formally dressed black-haired girl who got out of the car, but also an intellectual girl with blonde hair, her mother Sophie.

"Don't bother you to fight, little plum~" Alice cheerfully waved to the young man, "Introducing the company is the business, let's get started."

Not feeling any dissatisfaction with his title of "Little Plum", Li Zeju closed the car door gracefully: "Then please follow me into the company, I believe that Mr. Wengerman is ready."

Li Zeju, the eldest son of the Li Ka-shing family, one of the behind-the-scenes owners of HSBC, invited the mother and daughter into the company. A century-old enterprise, the building is naturally a typical British style, which makes Alice feel a kind of familiarity. After such a journey, after taking the elevator to the top floor, Li Zeju introduced the two to a middle-aged gentleman with a white beard.

"This is the general manager of Hong Kong Electric Company, Mr. Wen Geman." Standing on the soft red carpet, Li Zeju said in a polite manner: "This is the honorary chairman of Cisco, Ms. Alice Wang, and her mother , Ms. Sophie."

"Hello, Mr. Wengerman." Alice stepped forward and stretched out her hand.

"Ah, seeing is believing." Mr. Weinberg, who is at least a head taller than Alice and more than twice her in cross-section, looks more like a polar bear than a British gentleman, but bows politely. He bent down and kissed Alice's hand: "You are a girl studying at Eton College, and you are the first one I have met in so many years."

"My honor, sir." With a smile on her forehead, Alice pushed her mother to the front calmly, and quickly wiped the back of her hand on her shirt: "This is my mother..."

"Oh, my, god." However, Sophie's behavior was beyond Alice's expectation. Someone swore that it was definitely the first time for her and her mother to come to Hong Kong, and Sophie had only been to the UK once when she was taking the ACCA certificate. But now, she looked at Mr. Wengerman in astonishment, with a feeling of disbelief.

"Konstantin Wengerman?" she called out. "You don't work at Standard Chartered anymore?"

Alice: "...Hi?"

While someone was in a daze, Wen Geman also looked surprised, first glanced at Sophie thoughtfully, then suddenly, he clapped his hands vigorously and said: "Sophie! Sophie O'Brien! God, is it really yours? You haven't aged at all, the same you..."

"Stop, stop, stop, stop!" Alice really couldn't calm down: "You two knew each other before?"

"Yes," Sophie nodded, and looked at Mr. Wengeman in amazement: "When I took the exam for Chartered Certified Accountants, he was sitting next to him. After the exam, we went to a fast food restaurant on the street together for a meal. Don! Constantine! Oh my God, how long has it been since we've seen each other?"

"Of course it's been more than ten years!" Mr. Wen Geman didn't know who to face. Look at the young Li Zeju who is making soy sauce, that is the son of the chairman of the company; look at the beautiful intellectual girl in front of him, the beauty he met by chance more than ten years ago; They focused on Alice, who looked like an enemy.

"Alice, Sophie, is Alice your daughter?"

Sophie put her hand on Alice's shoulder: "That's right, I settled in Los Angeles not long after I finished the exam. You know UCLA, right? Back then I often..."

"Stop, stop, please stop for me quickly." Alice didn't intend to let them continue chatting, and stood in front of Mr. Wengerman to block him: "Sir, this is my mother, my father My sister's mother, my brother's... Mommy. OK, the introduction is over, so can we continue with business?"

The excitement was indeed only a moment. Wen Geman immediately took two steps back and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Ms. Wang, it may have caused your misunderstanding. Please don't worry. Candidates are just surprised, of course this will not delay the business. Come on, Victor, sit here."

The name was Li Zeju, a Canadian who had studied at Stanford University. As soon as the business started, the previous pleasantries were naturally forgotten, and everyone took their seats in the reception area, while a secretary who had no sense of presence on his front feet immediately stepped forward to pour black tea for everyone.

But after taking her seat, Alice didn't say anything immediately, but stared suspiciously at the man with the white beard. At the age of nearly fifty, ten years more than Sophie would make him extraordinarily "manly". Such a guy, after seeing his mother all of a sudden, flirts with him in various surprises, but it is definitely not a flattering thing,

Sophie didn't say anything right away, she was sitting beside her daughter, how could she not notice Alice's dislike for Wengerman? Sophie herself also understands this emotion. Just imagine, if when she was hanging out with her mother, a man suddenly appeared on the street and made friends with her mother in various familiar ways...

"Wengerman, you must be very surprised." Seeing the cold air around the coffee table, Li Zeju immediately interjected: "Alice, who was developing her career in Silicon Valley, suddenly chose to invest a large amount of money in Hong Kong. A few days ago, She directly bought the Peninsula Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui, which shocked our real estate industry."

"Yes, yes, I also saw the statement in the newspaper." It was convenient for the topic to jump up, Wen Geman said: "And now, Victor, you actually informed me that Alice plans to invest in our Hong Kong Lamp Group, this is not a small hand. Alice, please allow me to ask, can you really spend so much money?"

Polite questioning, in exchange for Alice's affirmative answer: "Don't worry about it, Wen Geman, my Cisco company has also gone public, and Microsoft's development is changing with each passing day. , but if you just buy shares, it is not difficult. And I believe that you also need Cisco products now, right?"

The previous speech was not beyond the expectations of those present. Now that the meeting has already taken place, both Li Zeju, who is one of the shareholders, and Wen Geman, the general manager of HK Electric, are of course very concerned about Alice’s current career situation. with full understanding. So after skimming over the familiar lines, their energy was also attracted by the second half of the sentence.

"I know Cisco's products, but what does this have to do with HK Electric?"

Wen Geman didn't look at Sophie in an attempt to play some unknown emotional card, but stared at Alice's blue eyes, with the natural advantage of being nearly fifty years old, wanting to see what was going on in the girl's heart. What the hell are you thinking.

However, Alice was destined to disappoint him. Those big blue eyes are really like a pool of lake water, and they are as deep as Lake Baikal. He, who can be the girl's father and is also the helm of a large international company, can't see anything at all. Inner clues.

"Of course it is the optimization of the power plant management system." Alice said lightly: "As the first city in Asia with electricity supply, as a British-funded power plant company established as early as the end of the last century, as early as 1968 when you , built a fully computerized power plant in Ap Lei Chau, and used fuel oil to generate electricity. It was finally completed a few years ago. However, I believe that the information management system that was planned so early and built so early must not be more advanced. A well-developed network system to assist, right?"

"This is a very important thing, especially since I am personally very experienced in developing operating systems." Knowing that Mr. Wengerman was already moved, Alice smiled even more confidently: "After all, no one wants to break the port. Lamp has the reputation of being the safest electricity in the world, isn't it?"
