Reborn in the 70s / Reborn in 1978

The second brother smiled and said: "I just put some wine, I plan to drink it for more than five years, there are a dozen oak barrels, and there is an extra three hundred bottles, brought back from France, yes, there are a hundred more A bottle of champagne, I guess I'll buy it for you if you want to drink it, I don't like it, it's too sweet."

Zhang Xingming said, "I'll go down to have a look at night. You've done so much secrecy. I haven't noticed it after living here for so many days."

The second brother said: "Except for the gymnasium on the first floor and the room where you live, have you never been in other rooms? I have a garden on the roof here and I didn't do it on your side, so I knew you must be lazy." go up."

Chapter 685 Buying Fishing Tackle

Zhang Xingming thought about it, and realized that he was really lazy, so he curled his lips.

The second brother stood up and said, "Let's go buy a fishing rod, don't you have other things to do?"

Zhang Xingming thought about it, and there was nothing wrong with him. He stood up and said, "Okay, let's go out with you for a stroll. It seems that I haven't been on the street since I've been in Hong Kong Island for so many days."

The two took the elevator downstairs, and the second brother said, "Let's take a walk instead of taking the car."

Zhang Xingming said, "OK, let's go. It seems like I haven't walked for a long time."

The two of them took Li Chun, Tang Xin, and three security guards out of the building from the lobby on the first floor and walked along the road.The road is very narrow, and there are tall buildings on both sides. You have to look up to see a line of blue sky.

Cars are coming and going on the street. On both sides of the road are isolation railings made of iron pipes, which are painted off one by one, and there are bumps from time to time. It feels the same as the second and third tier cities in the Mainland ten years later. The road is still It is not as wide as the mainland of later generations.

There are various traffic lines drawn on the road, and the sidewalk paved with permeable cement bricks outside the fences on both sides is already full of potholes. The passers-by on the street were all in a hurry with sullen faces, they were all working-class people struggling to make ends meet.From time to time, people with cartoon images distributed leaflets to passers-by.

Crossing the viaduct highway from the underground passage, there are three beggars and one singing singer in a short section of tens of meters of underground passage.

Coming out of the dark, damp and urine-smelling underground passage, there is a bus stop on the side of the road, and there is a row of simple houses in the past, dilapidated, with a signboard of the Vegetable Owners Association, and I don’t know what it is for.Zhang Xingming looked around and said, "Why do I think this side is worse than ours?"

The second brother smiled and said: "What's the difference? It's like this all over the world. No matter how rich a place is, there are also poor people, and even where there are poor people, there are also rich people. Besides, our side is developing and building now. How many years has it been here?" ? There is a large population, and it is normal to be dirty or broken, so it can’t be compared.”

Zhang Xingming said: "If people from China come to travel, they must be disappointed, right?"

The second elder brother shook his head and said: "No, if you don't live here, you can't come here. At most, you can sit in the car and pass by and see something. Moreover, even if you see it, he won't say it when you go back. He will only Talk about those high-rise buildings, bustling, busy streets, no one will say that there are beggars and poor people here, how dirty and shabby, if you say that, doesn’t it seem that he is a bit stupid to come here to spend money?”

Zhang Xingming nodded, and said to his second brother: "I found that you can do it now. This theory is one set, and the analysis of human nature is very accurate."

The second elder brother put his arms around Zhang Xingming's shoulder and patted on the shoulder, saying: "You should underestimate me, let me tell you, brother is well-informed now, understand?"

Now Zhang Xingming is half a head taller than the second brother, and the second brother hugged his shoulders a bit awkwardly, the two couldn't help thinking about the past at the same time, sighed almost at the same time, looked at each other and laughed.

Turn right from this street and you will enter the real bustling commercial district. It is not far from the legendary Portland Street. It is only a few streets away, at most one kilometer away. There are dense shops on both sides, and there are many pedestrians. more up.

In many shopping malls, the signs of street girls began to appear continuously. This kind of street girl is called Fengnv. You can put up a sign and open for business.On Hong Kong Island, prostitution is innocence and the law is enforced. Technical women are legal, and people who come to consume are crimes.

It’s afternoon now, it’s the rest time for this industry. When the neon lights are on after dark, the police are off work and the gangsters are on duty, street girls will appear on the street laughing and attracting customers. They also work very hard and earn a lot of money. It's hard work for money, while selling youthful body and health, while being deceived by gangsters, even a blue lantern, the bottom four or nine cubs, can bully them for fun at any time.

But people have to live, and they have to live.

There are not many nightclubs here. Going northeast from here is the area with the most nightclubs. This side is already on the outskirts. A few people walked along the street for more than ten minutes and saw a few fishing tackle shops. The shops are not big. The facade several meters wide is hidden among a large number of small facades with various billboards, but the space inside is not small, it is a long and narrow room.

After entering the store, not only fishing tackle is sold here, but also second-hand goods are bought and sold.

In the entire Asian region, the fishing tackles from Little Japan are the best. There are also several brands in Wanwan that are more popular, but they are all of Japanese origin. Little Japan’s carbon rods are quite famous, especially for sea fishing, and the quality is really good. good.At this moment, glass fiber rods have been eliminated, stretch fiber rods and alloy rods have not yet appeared, and carbon fiber rods dominate. This kind of rod has one of the biggest weaknesses, which is electrical conductivity.

The well-known fishing tackles in Japan include Dawa, Shimano, Katz, Ubi and other brands, which are considered high-end fishing tackles. The common domestic fishing tackles such as Xiliu Xiaoji are not very good rods in Japan, and even Not as good as Dijia in Wanwan and Guangwei in Weihai.

Buying fishing tackle is a rather troublesome thing. Rods, lines, hooks, swim bladders, reels, baits, and a line have to be divided into many types. People without a little patience really can't play this.Zhang Xingming is not sensitive to this thing, but the second brother has such a fiery temper, but he plays it thoroughly, whispering and pointing with the shopkeeper there, and picked a lot of things in half an hour. After the calculation, it was a full 11 Hong Kong dollars. Although Hong Kong dollars are worthless at this time, it is still a huge sum of money.

Photography and fishing are really not games that the poor can play. They are completely burning money without end.

After buying the fishing tackle, I bought some buckets, nets, sun protection clothes, glasses, hats, folding chairs, and a lot of 10,000+ Hong Kong dollars in a mess. The second brother was satisfied and called Zhang Xingming to help get good things. His gaze left the store door and walked back.Zhang Xingming felt that the second brother was completely a mobile cash machine in the eyes of the old boss.

Fortunately, it wasn't very far away, a distance of more than 500 meters, and a few people carried their things one by one and walked back the same way.

Go upstairs and pile up things in the second brother's office. The few people have nothing to do, so they just go home from get off work together.

When he arrived at Deep Water Bay, Zhang Xingming took his second brother to the villa he had built. It was a kind of townhouse that was more popular in later generations when he flattened out a large piece of land on the mountain. There was a communal swimming pool and a small In the garden, standing in the courtyard, you can overlook the bay. Every house above has a terrace, so it’s a good place to live. If all the neighbors are close friends, it’s really better than the one Zhang Xingming lives in. Pure big villas are much more comfortable.

Godfather Liu, Liu Yihui, Mike and Chen Huifen live here now, and soon Guo Zhenguang, Xi Shuhui and He Juanjuan will also live here, it will be very lively.Zhang Xingming stood there thinking for a long time whether he should move here too, but he gave up.

Chapter 686

The afternoon of the third day.

Zhang Xingming and his second brother returned home early, and the chef sent by the hotel was already in place, busy preparing authentic Shandong cuisine and Huaiyang cuisine, and the wine they prepared was pure Shaoxing old yellow.

In fact, the diet of people on Hong Kong Island is similar to that of other eastern Guangdong regions. It is mainly light and original, just like the pork liver soup that Hong Kong people like very much. Generally, mainlanders really can’t eat it.Since they are from the north, those who can drink a bowl of pure Cantonese soup are pure men and heroes.

Although it is said to be pure Shandong cuisine, it has actually been adjusted. After all, the flavor of Shandong cuisine is too strong, and it must be properly improved to suit the people here, so it is only limited to once in a while.

Zhang Xingming walked around the kitchen and then ran to the second brother's roof garden to look out for the wind. People are so strange. Whenever he said that he didn't have it there, he wanted to come up and try it. If he had it there, he would still I really don’t know how long it takes to go up once. There is a distance of tens of meters between the two villas. From this side, the tiles on the sloping roof reflect the dazzling light in the sun.

Looking farther away, there is a deep blue sea and the looming islands in the distance, and the sound of the tide hitting the shore can be vaguely heard.Zhang Xingming's mind unknowingly entered a state of emptiness, as if he had thought a lot, and he seemed to have thought nothing at all.When the phone in his pocket rang, Zhang Xingming woke up from his ignorance. The setting sun left blood on the sea, and the golden light jumped on the sea, which was the last blush of the setting sun at dusk.

The phone was still ringing, Zhang Xingming pressed the answer button and raised the phone to his ear: "Hello?" Maybe it was because of the long time of not speaking, his voice was very hoarse.

"Boss, what's wrong with your voice?" Opposite was Xi Shuhui, who was about to get married soon.

Zhang Xingming cleared his throat with a cough and said, "It's okay, I haven't talked for a long time, I have something to say."

Xi Shuhui said: "One piece of good news and one piece of bad news."

Zhang Xingming laughed, why do people like to play this century-old stalk, and said: "Say what you want, and hang up if you don't want to."

Xi Shuhui spat and said: "Skerda has made contact with it, and it is not very optimistic. There is no obvious conflict between the two companies, Marsaladi and Ferrari, and further discussions are needed, but the good news is that John Bull is very happy. Happy, whether it is Benli or Jaguar, as long as the investment is double R, it can be negotiated, and the John Bull government, from the Queen to the Prime Minister, welcomes any capital with good intentions to enter."

Zhang Xingming was stunned for a moment, this was really an unexpected joy, and said: "Then buy it, anyway, I want to be a holding company, I can hold a company first, and then merge horizontally according to patents and technologies. The person in charge must think about it and notify me in advance."

Xi Shuhui said: "Also, last time you mentioned the peninsula corporate chain, I learned about it. The big Japanese screen is not a big problem. Our capital operation in Japan is easy to handle. Several other companies are going through John Bull Contact the company here, the boss, John Bull and Wanwan both have companies in this field, do you want to consider it?"

Zhang Xingming thought for a while and said: "Computer is an industry that I attach great importance to. What I told you last time is just a plan I made based on my own knowledge, but this plan does not stop at my plan, because I A person's knowledge is limited.

You can set up an independent department in John Bull or Bald Eagle to invest in computer-related companies, and integrate holdings and acquisitions from semiconductors, super-scale integrated circuits, graphics chips, communication companies, production equipment, and software companies to form a complete, The advanced industrial chain comes out, including but not limited to the enterprises I mentioned. Of course, the few I mentioned are important goals.

I don’t ask for countries, regions and religions. I only need ownership, at least holding shares. In theory, it’s best to buy them all, but the original structure of all affiliated companies remains unchanged. It’s best to be controlled by different companies or For cross-shareholding, I don't interfere with the operation and management of these companies, as long as I own them.understand?This will be our focus in the next few years. "

Xi Shuhui thought for a while and said: "I have an idea. Several investment companies are formed by the cross-shareholding of some offshore companies wholly-owned or registered by the investment company, and then these investment companies respectively control and acquire related companies. But the boss In this case, I suggest setting up five independent departments under the investment company, namely computer, automobile, industry, stock futures, and currency, to concentrate on a certain aspect of operation, and the layout is a bit messy now."

Zhang Xingming said: "Yes, I have already told you about this matter. Computers, automobiles, and industry should pay attention to confidentiality. If the headquarters is located in John Bull or Europe, a certain degree of independence must be maintained. These days Each department will exist for a long time, constantly discover and invest in new companies, and incorporate them to improve the industrial chain.”

Xi Shuhui said: "Japan and Eastern Europe need to maintain two complete departments. If there is a shortage of people, whoever the boss is, I am so tired."

Zhang Xingming said with a smile: "If you are short of people, just hire them. We are not short of money. Besides, this is a short-term business. Think about your success in the future. Ms. Xi, the world's financial industry will tremble because of you, and your name will become a leader. The legend of the times, think about the day the whole world looks at you when the mystery is revealed, all temporary difficulties can be overcome and resolved, I believe in you."

Xi Shuhui was silent for a while, sighed and said: "I believe your evil." Hang up the phone.

Zhang Xingming laughed and put away the phone, the sound of a car could be heard next to his ears, he looked down, and saw a Rolls-Royce driving up from below along the highway and turned into the ramp on his side, Mr. Li came.

The security guard had been notified in advance, and upon seeing Mr. Li, he immediately opened the gate and welcomed Mr. Li into the villa.
