Reborn Tech Maniac

Chapter 690 Meet with the new Governor of Hong Kong in advance
……

Give you a piece of blue sky, a rising sun;

Give you a piece of green grass, stretching to the distance;
Give you an eagle, a mighty man;

Give you a harness and hold it in his hand.

……

If it were placed in the original time and space, people who heard this seemingly non-singing voice would probably be unbearable and their hair would stand on end. But in this time and space, the singing voice is full of carefree and carefree joy.

The tall and slender Brooke Shields nestled in Tang Huan's arms, and the two shared a ride, galloping freely on the Kentucky ranch.

An old Caucasian man over sixty years of age stared at this pair of intimate men and women with an ugly expression on his face.

When Tang Huan jumped off the horse happily, he walked forward in three steps at a time, and said dissatisfiedly: "Spring is here, and young men and women are also rippling with the spring heart, which is understandable. But the 'orchestra' It's not a war horse, but a racing horse. Don, can your attitude be more professional?"

Speaking of this, the annoyed old man touched the expensive racehorse named "Orchestra", then waved his sweaty hands, and shouted sadly: "Look, you two are tired of 'Orchestra'." .It's a $450 million grass-eating racehorse, not a gas-drinking million-dollar sports car. Do you like 'horse shocks' that much?"

Brooke Xiaosi, who was dismounted by Tang Huan, felt that the outdated billionaire Nelson Hunter in front of her spoke too harshly, so she pouted and retorted: "Mr. Hunter, I have always controlled my weight very well. Well, without putting too much weight on the 'orchestra'."

"Miss Brooke Shields, I've heard of your name." Nelson Hunter waved his hand impatiently, "No matter what, you are a 'big' girl with a height of over 180 centimeters, aren't you? "

To be honest, although Brooke Shields wants to become a successful actor, the proportion of stars in her achievements is far greater than that of actors, and her performance in the film industry is lacklustre.

Take last year's $1600 million adventure film "Brenda Starr," starring Brooke Shields and current James Bond actor Timothy Dalton -- "Rampaging and Pretty Girls." At that time, it was called a dog by film critics, and then fell into distribution disputes, and the release time was nowhere in sight.

Compared with Brooke Shields' unfavorable performance in the film industry, people are more willing to talk about the various topics surrounding the star who was born in an 11-month-old soap commercial.

For example, Brooke Shields, who moved into an ordinary apartment at Princeton University to study, was insured by her eccentric mother; after attending the famous New York nightclub 54 Club, she was discovered by the paparazzi hanging out with the richest man in the United States in a luxury hotel; as This year, she is about to graduate from university, and Brooke Shields' virginity insurance has expired, who will be the man who will win the top prize; will there be a "Neighbor King" who will preemptively attack the forbidden descendant of the richest man in the United States... …

All in all, people's focus shows the characteristics of human society-Boji Shields is not inlaid with gold and jade, so she can be different from other women, but society has endowed her with special value.

Undoubtedly, it was precisely because of her unclear relationship with Tang Huan that Brooke Shields' reputation reached Nelson Hunter's ears.When he saw the "dog man and woman" sharing the "orchestral orchestra" love for concubines, he unceremoniously reprimanded him—even though the racehorse, and even the entire huge ranch, no longer belonged to him.

After being ridiculed by the other party as a "big ocean horse", the speechless Brooke Xiaosi tugged Tang Huan's arm coquettishly.

Throwing the gloves to the assistant, Mr. Richest laughed, "Mr. Hunter, you are a bit of a fool. No matter what kind of horse, the basic duty is to carry people. Occasionally breaking the rules is a test. No need to be serious."

Nelson Hunter's thoroughbred racing horse breeding program started with the purchase of the first thoroughbred racehorse in 1955, and finally had a brilliant harvest in the 1970s.His outstanding horses have won a total of 158 prize money and 25 championships. The American Horse Racing Association even awarded him the title of "Best Horse Owner and Breeder".

It's not hard to imagine how much Nelson Hunter loves his racehorses.

However, this luxurious personal hobby was unsustainable with the failure of Nelson Hunter and his brother William Hunter's earth-shattering speculation in the silver futures market.With bankruptcy imminent, he had to reluctantly sell his racing horses and ranch.

Nelson Hunter, who was optimistic about the financial resources of the richest man and was thinking about finding a good owner for his horse racing, packaged and sold his hard work in this field for decades to Tang Huan.

But after seeing the treatment of the "orchestral orchestra" in front of him, Nelson Hunter couldn't help but began to doubt whether his choice was really correct, but everything was settled, and he could only do nothing.

When Tang Huan said that he was petty, Nelson Hunter shook his head disinterestedly, "Well, these racehorses belong to you now, and I have no right to say anything."

"Mr. Hunter is an expert in the field of horse racing. I still have a lot of questions to ask." Tang Huan affectionately put his arms around the shoulders of the ex-rich man, comforting him.

Logically speaking, after the transaction is completed, there is no need for Tang Huan to be used to Nelson Hunter's bad temper—these thoroughbred racehorses are already mine, and even if I kill them and eat them, others have no right to make irresponsible remarks— — But the richest man still needs the help of the other party to support the scene, so I have to take care of his mood.

Although Nelson Hunter and his younger brother William Hunter had to go bankrupt because of the silver futures hype, but the entire Hunter family would not fall apart.

The old Hunter, the oil tycoon who took over the East Texas oil fields, not only left a huge family fortune, but also had the resources of a senior Republican activist. Hunter and William Hunter went bankrupt.

Old Hunter married three wives in his life and had 15 children, many of whom were outstanding.For example, Nelson Hunter's other younger brother, Lamar Hunter, is a well-known promoter of American football, soccer, basketball, tennis and ice hockey in the United States, and has made great achievements.

In the original time and space, Nelson Hunter collapsed after his bankruptcy, but his younger brother William Hunter made a comeback after the same bankruptcy. More than 20 years later, his net worth exceeded US$20 billion.

In short, the Hunter family, which has been in business for decades, still has a deep foundation. This is the main gap between the nouveau riche and the established families after they squeeze into the upper class. After all, some resources require time to accumulate, and if you want to move forward in time, Shortcuts are very difficult.

Tang Huan wants to entertain Charles and other members of the British royal family at the ranch, as well as the Sultan of Brunei, Mrs. The latter, a country rich man, must be restrained.

**** Bolkiah also owns a Boeing 747 private jet, and this time he came to the United States on it, with a large entourage that made the scene a real spectacle.

The scene where the richest man in the United States wants to compete with the Sultan of Brunei to pile up financial resources really needs hard work.

So Tang Huan decided to use high-level pretense to calm down the opponent, pointing to the "orchestra" and proudly introduced: "It has won the Arlington Million Dollar Championship twice, and the rewards include two medals Plus, two checks for $60; ran No.3 last year in the Breeders' Cup Turf Race."

Nelson Hunter, who was in charge of supporting the show, answered very naturally: "The famous horse owner Alan Paulson wanted to buy the 'Orchestra' for 450 million US dollars, but I told Don to keep the 'Orchestra'." Team', can get more!"

****·Bolkiah was really taken aback by this super luxurious living toy, and said in surprise: "Unexpectedly, it is more expensive than any sports car in my garage."

Naturally, the Sultan of Brunei has his reasons for his reaction. Nelson Hunter, the former rich man who once monopolized the global silver futures market and stirred up troubles, went to Tang Huan to play a similar role as a doorman. Forced new realm.

In addition to being the birthplace of the world-famous fast food chain KFC, Kentucky is also famous for its thoroughbred horses and whiskey, and its horse-grazing industry is world-renowned.

The Xiangjiang horse race, which is equivalent to gambling, is very lively, but it is difficult to develop the breeding industry in such a small place, and all the horses for service have to be trained and imported from other places.

Therefore, Tang Huan specially asked Nelson Hunter, Charles and other senior people to help select a few new horses that had never raced and sent them to Xiangjiang to act as a facade for the members of the Xiangjiang Jockey Club of Qinhe.

When the game was almost over, everyone dispersed.Tang Huan set off for Europe to start this year's global tour.Before leaving, he and the subdued Mr. Bolkiah had a special talk about further investment and cooperation.

This kind of local tyrant who monopolizes the country's resources for his own use cares more about the preservation of his own assets, and has always been concerned about the wealth of the richest man. Of course, Tang Huan didn't use it for nothing, and brought this little brother very generously.

……

The first stop of this round of European tour is the United Kingdom, which has already begun to campaign for the general election.After some struggles, the new Governor of Hong Kong was finally elected. Tang Huan planned to meet David Clive Wilson, who may be the last Governor of Hong Kong in private, ahead of time—David Clive Wilson, who also has a Chinese name—Wei Dewei.

As far as political career is concerned, Wei Dewei can be said to be in his prime, only 52 years old this year.

With a scholarship, he majored in History at Keble College, Oxford University, and finally obtained a Master of Arts qualification in 1958. After graduation, he was once distressed. Seniority, report to the Colonial Department, or go to the Foreign Office.

The worldwide anti-colonial wave after World War II has caused the British colonial system to collapse.So after some careful consideration, Wei Dewei chose the latter.Joined the British Foreign Office in 1958,
Originally, Wei Dewei would be sent to the Middle East to learn Arabic; but for some reason, he was reassigned to the British Embassy in Vientiane, Laos in 1959 as the third secretary.

At that time, the Indochina Peninsula became a battleground between the capitalist and communist camps under the Cold War, and the situation was extremely complex.

Here, Wei Dewei met the first person who had a great influence on his career - the then British ambassador to Laos, Etis.In addition to being a British diplomat, he is also a well-known "China hand" and antique collector.

Aides loves China and once said that China is worthy of "This is a country to which one should devote one's life or go away" - "a country where a person either dedicates his life or leaves".

However, his status as a "China hand" has also become a stumbling block in his career. Some senior officials in the British Foreign Office have prejudice against his Chinese background, which has prevented him from advancing his career for a long time.

It was not until US President Richard Nixon visited China that relations between Britain and China rapidly heated up that the value of Altis was taken seriously. On March 1972, 3, he fulfilled his long-cherished wish and officially became the first British Ambassador to China. Ambassador of the Republic.

It is conceivable that after the experience in Laos, when the British Foreign Office planned to bring up the old matter and arranged for Wei Dewei to continue to learn Arabic in the Middle East.Wei Dewei, who has developed a deep interest in Chinese culture, strongly requested to study Chinese at Xiangjiang University in Xiangjiang.

The British Foreign Office agreed to Wei Dewei's request, but planned to arrange for him to study Chinese at Nanyang University in Singapore.

Fortunately, Ai Tisi offered help at this time, so that Wei Dewei got his wish, and finally went to Xiangjiang to learn Chinese.His Chinese name was taken during this period.

With this foundation in place, Wei Dewei also became a China expert and was appreciated by the second ambassador to China, Youde, and the third ambassador to China, Kolida.

When Youde passed away suddenly during his tenure as Governor of Hong Kong, Wei Dewei, who was still inexperienced, was appointed as the new Governor of Hong Kong by the big one among the British dwarves after a round of operations.

Wei Dewei is well aware of Tang Huan's secret support, so although the two parties met for the first time, he showed a great degree of intimacy.

Tang Huan pointed out without hesitation, "Everything in Xiangjiang is about getting a good start. David, your Chinese name is probably not suitable for the position of Governor of Hong Kong."

"A virtuous person should be based on the Tao, and a tall man should have a stable foundation. My Chinese name is from this couplet given by the teacher. I don't feel that there is anything wrong with it." Wei Dewei said rather puzzled.

"The people below can't understand this. The so-called lottery is naturally far-fetched." Tang Huan shook his head, "I have heard a lot of discussion from Xiangjiang Media, thinking that Wei Dewei's name has two characters for 'ghost', It is "two ghosts knocking on the door", especially the word "Wei" is composed of "Qianba female ghost" under the "mountain". In addition, "Wei" and "Wei" are homophonic with "dangerous" and "pseudo". The homophony of the full name has become 'Dangerous' is very unlucky."

Wei Dewei, who had tens of thousands of grass and mud horses whizzing by in his heart, wiped the sweat from his brow, and asked humbly, "Can Tang give me some good advice?"

"Why don't we make a fuss about the homonym of the translated name." Tang Huan thought for a while, and then said, "David, what do you think about changing it to 'Wei Yixin'? It means defending 'faith' and 'integrity'."

Wei Dewei, whose eyes lit up, immediately accepted the suggestion happily, "Well, I will be called Wei Yixin from now on."

Ever since, Tang Huan, who was suspected of killing the former Governor of Hong Kong, named the new Governor of Hong Kong so happily, and the name was quickly notified to Xiangjiang.
