Chapter 53: Lin's House Banquet

"Are you nervous?" Li Xuan turned his head and glanced at this delicate and smooth face like suet and white jade, and his pair of water-like eyes made one couldn't help but feel a little more affectionate.

"A little bit!" Zhong Chuhong said softly, frowning slightly.

"There's nothing to be nervous about, it's not just going to the mountain of swords and the sea of ​​​​fire, and participating in a cold dinner party!"

Li Xuan smiled, stretched out her fingers and scratched her delicate nose, and then lightly stroked her lips, red lips and white teeth, as attractive as a cherry.

"I hate it, concentrate on driving!" Zhong Chuhong patted his fingers off and said with a sideways eye.

In front of Lin's mansion in Deep Water Bay, all kinds of luxury cars have been parked, ranging from fashionable sports cars such as Lotus and Aston Martin to noble and luxurious extended cars such as Bentley and Rolls-Royce. Some people say that Japanese cars are tools, German cars are machines, French cars are romance, and British cars are art.

The mid-to-low-end car market in Hong Kong has long been dominated by cheap Japanese cars represented by Nissan and Toyota, but the high-end market is still dominated by British cars. Hong Kong is a British colony, and the wealthy have a special respect for the cars of the suzerain country, which have the style of aristocrats.

Li Xuan, the American sports car of the Chevrolet Camaro, is very different from the British cars in Yishui. He threw the car key to the servant who was parking on his behalf, and then turned his head to give Zhong Chuhong a reassuring smile. Carefully, she reached out and lifted the somewhat messy bangs on her forehead, and then hugged her girlfriend in a red tube top and long skirt, and walked towards the villa.

This mansion in Deep Water Bay, covering an area of ​​more than 2,000 square meters, is the residence of the Lin Guitai family. Today, Li Xuan was invited to attend his roommate Lin Yuhao's 20th birthday. Lin Guitai is one of several super-rich people in Hong Kong. According to the valuation given by the Hong Kong Economic Journal, the entire Lin family spans textiles, hotels, real estate and many other industries, and the family wealth exceeds 5 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Lin's ancestral home is in Chaozhou, eastern Guangdong. From Lin Guitai's grandfather, he started to run the bank and ticket business, and the whole family began to prosper. However, the traditional Chaoshan people's concept is that the eldest son of the eldest family inherits the family business, and the sons born out of the concubines do not have much property. Although Lin Guitai's father only got a small portion of the family property when they split up the family, it was enough for the whole family to have food and clothing.

Unfortunately, Lin Guitai's father contracted tuberculosis before he was 30 years old. Seeing a doctor exhausted the family's remaining wealth. Lin Guitai came out as an apprentice before he was fifteen years old to earn money to support his family. In 1945, when the Second World War ended, Lin Guitai, who had just turned 20 at the time, cooperated with an American to obtain a batch of surplus materials from the U.S. military in Guam at a low price and shipped them back to Hong Kong for resale, earning the first pot of gold in his life.

In the 1950s, Hong Kong's entrepot trade shrank rapidly due to the blockade of the New China by the British Hong Kong government. Having accumulated a certain amount of capital, Lin Guitai resolutely joined the textile industry. Not only did he become a textile tycoon in Hong Kong's textile industry within ten years, it was not from SH and Ningbo, but from Chaoshan.

Later, Lin Guitai was optimistic about the development of Hong Kong's real estate industry, and the Lin Group actively entered the real estate industry and high-end hotel chain industry. Today, Lin Guitai, who has just turned fifty-five years old, started his own business from scratch and has accumulated more than 5 billion fortune in 40 years.

It was not until the 1970s that Hong Kong officially abolished the Qing law and no longer allowed polygamy. Therefore, most of Hong Kong's richest people are wives and concubines in groups. Lin Guitai has a relatively good personal reputation among Hong Kong's richest people. He has been with his wife for more than 30 years, and the relationship has always been very good, until the accident of Lin Yuhao suddenly appeared. Lin Guitai's original wife, Mrs. Liu, is not harsh on Lin Yuhao's food, clothing, housing, and transportation, but it is definitely not compatible with enthusiasm and thoughtfulness.

This time the Lin family held a dinner for Lin Yuhao's twentieth birthday, and at the same time officially introduced Lin Yuhao to everyone as Lin Guitai's son. The dinner party was a cold dinner banquet, and the first guests gathered in small circles in twos and threes to discuss topics of their own interest.

Holding his girlfriend, Li Xuan walked around the banquet hall casually, passing a waiter and took two glasses of brandy from his tray, one of which was handed to Zhong Chuhong.

"Director Cai, stop humiliating me, I'm just a shrimp soldier and crab general! Don't talk about meeting Lao Linsheng, just go to talk to Xiao Xiaolinsheng, and no one knows who I am!" Zhang Wenjin said with a wry smile.

Standing beside him is Cai Yongmin, the first deputy director of the newly established Housing Administration Bureau of the Deep Sea Special Zone. When the other party heard that he was a civil engineer of Lin's real estate, he wanted him to help introduce the senior management of Lin's.

Only Zhang Wenjin knows his own affairs. He is not even a middle-level manager in Lin's real estate. He has no chance to talk to the top management of the group, let alone introduce others.

"Hello!" Li Xuan, who was standing beside him, raised his glass to the two of them kindly.

Li Xuan noticed the two of them at a glance. Although they were both wearing black suits, they knew at a glance that they were street goods bought in the National Products Building. Compared with other high-end suits made by senior tailors, there are obvious differences in both workmanship and fabrics.

In addition to the Cantonese or English in the hall, their Mandarin looks a little different, especially the Director Cai, who has a strong Northeast flavor in his words.

Cai Yongmin and Zhang Wenjin also smiled at Li Xuan friendly.

"My surname is Li, and my name is Xuan!" Li Xuan stretched out his hand and shook hands with the two of them, introducing himself.

"Li Sheng is also from the mainland?" Cai Yongmin asked curiously listening to Li Xuan's standard Mandarin. Most Hong Kong people discriminate against the backwardness of the mainland very much. Even if they can speak Mandarin, many people disdain it.

"No, I'm an authentic Hong Konger, I just happened to have learned Mandarin!" Li Xuan took the business card handed over by Cai Yongmin, the first deputy director of the Shenzhen Housing Authority and the general manager of the Shenhai Real Estate Development Company. . UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Such a position would be a proper deputy department-level cadre after 30 years. Real estate bosses would definitely send someone to accompany them when they see a powerful figure who needs to nod and bow to accompany a smiling face. As now, this Director Cai is not only ignored, but many people look at him with a bit of contempt.

"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry today, so I forgot to bring my business card!" Li Xuan took out the wallet in his pocket and saw that the several personal business cards that had been stuffed in it were long gone, so he said embarrassedly.

"Is Director Cai a cadre heading south? Your accent seems to be from the Northeast!" Li Xuan asked.

"Li Sheng is very familiar with the situation in the Mainland. I am from JL and just transferred from the army last year!" Director Cai said with a smile, with a bit of the boldness of a Northeastern man in his words, "Which line Li Sheng is in, it is also the Lin Group. employees?"

"No!" Li Xuan shook his head, "I own a small electronics company!"

"It's good to be your own boss, Li Sheng is not too old, he is really young and promising!" Director Cai said with admiration, "If Li Sheng has the opportunity in the future, he can visit the Deep Sea Special Economic Zone. We strongly welcome your Hong Kong compatriots to the mainland. Invest in business!"
