We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong
#11 - You have to be reasonable when you get involved
In North Point, at a Cantonese restaurant next to Tianyuan Building, Su Cheng walked in with Zhang Qizheng, Wang Hai, and several bodyguards.
It was lunchtime, so Su Cheng simply decided to have a meal with them first. The matter of going to the Su's Group wasn't urgent; the company wasn't going anywhere anyway.
"Boss, the chef at this restaurant is excellent. I sometimes choose this place for entertaining," Zhang Qizheng said with a smile after everyone had entered a private room and sat down.
After all, it was right next to Tianyuan Building, so it was normal for them to come here occasionally to eat.
"Then I have to try it," Su Cheng said, smiling.
"Their crispy roast goose is the signature dish here, Boss, you must try it," Zhang Qizheng continued.
"Since you're so familiar with this place, you can order the dishes. The price doesn't matter, as long as it's delicious," Su Cheng handed the menu to Zhang Qizheng.
At this moment, a burst of noise and crying suddenly came from outside, which they could hear clearly even in the private room.
"Old Liu, go see what's going on," Su Cheng said to Old Liu, his personal bodyguard beside him.
Old Liu immediately got up, opened the private room door, and went out to see what had happened.
Outside the private room was the restaurant's main hall. Generally, people who didn't book private rooms ate at the tables in the hall.
Through the open door, Su Cheng could roughly see what was happening outside.
A female waitress was crying and apologizing repeatedly to the customers at the table next to her, while the customers were constantly scolding her. On the ground, there was spilled white cut chicken and a broken plate.
Looking through the door of the private room, Su Cheng felt increasingly familiar with the woman. Wasn't this Zhong Chuhong, who would be known in later generations as "Hong Kong's No. 1 Beauty"?
Shouldn't she be an actress? Why would she be working as a waitress in this restaurant?
"Xiao Ai, help me find out about Zhong Chuhong's information at this age," Su Cheng asked the intelligent AI in his mind.
"Okay, Master!"
"Zhong Chuhong is 18 years old this year. She has two younger sisters and a younger brother. Her parents run a small women's clothing business to support their family of six, and their life is very difficult. Therefore, Zhong Chuhong has been helping her father manage the accounts since she was 11 years old. Later, she started working part-time while studying to help support the family. Currently, Zhong Chuhong, who just graduated not long ago, is working as a waitress in this restaurant.
According to the original historical development of the parallel world, Zhong Chuhong, in the following year, 1979, participated in the Miss Hong Kong pageant at the behest of her mother. Due to her inability to wear high heels, she made mistakes on the spot and only won fourth place, but she was regarded as the 'most beautiful Miss Hong Kong' in the history of the pageant.
After the competition, Zhong Chuhong failed the audition at TVB, but she was appreciated by a big shot in the entertainment industry that year, who introduced Zhong Chuhong into the film industry and became a contracted actor of Shaw Brothers Film Company."
Soon, Xiao Ai gave the answer.
No wonder. It turned out that Zhong Chuhong, due to her poor family conditions at this time, could only study and work at the same time from a very young age. This waitress job was one she had applied for a month ago. As for debuting and entering the entertainment industry as an actress, she would have to wait until next year.
Before Old Liu could return, Su Cheng walked out.
How could he miss the chance to meet a Hong Kong goddess of the 80s and 90s!
"Boss, I'm really very sorry. She's new here and doesn't know much. She's clumsy. To show our apologies, we'll waive this consumption for you, okay?" the restaurant manager said with a smile.
At the same time, he glared fiercely at Zhong Chuhong.
Zhong Chuhong stood aside, crying aggrievedly.
"Do you know how expensive my clothes are? This is a Givenchy suit that I asked someone to buy back from France, worth thousands of dollars. This table of dishes is only two hundred, and you want to offset it? No way! Without 1,000 Hong Kong dollars in compensation, I'll find someone to reason with you!" The middle-aged man was obviously trying to make trouble while drunk.
"Zhong Chuhong, this matter is your responsibility, so you will be responsible for it. Your salary for this month is only 800 yuan, so I'll deduct it from there, and the rest will be deducted from next month's salary."
Seeing that he couldn't settle the customer, the restaurant manager would have a hard time doing business today. If the boss blamed him, he wouldn't have a good time, so he decisively pushed all the responsibility onto Zhong Chuhong, anyway, it wasn't his money being deducted.
"Manager, I, you can't do this..." Zhong Chuhong felt even more aggrieved. It was clear that it wasn't her fault, the customer had flirted with her first, so why should she pay compensation, and so much compensation at that.
At this time, Zhong Chuhong was studying at Tan Lieya Girls' School. After finishing this semester, she would graduate, so she was working and studying at the same time.
This job at the restaurant was found for her by her mother. In addition to Saturdays and Sundays, she had to come to work in the afternoon after school on weekdays, but even so, she only earned 800 Hong Kong dollars a month.
"Xiao Ai, is this suit really worth 1,000 Hong Kong dollars?"
The latest and most complete novel is on 69shu.com!
"Master, this suit has been scanned and it has been determined that it is a knockoff brand. Its brand name should be Givenchy, but I scanned that its back collar label says Givemchy," Xiao Ai's voice sounded in Su Cheng's mind.
Su Cheng instantly understood. Although there was only a difference of one letter, it was enough to show that this suit was not genuine. Not to mention 1,000 Hong Kong dollars, it wasn't even worth 100!
At this time, the bodyguards also came to Su Cheng's side to prevent accidents.
"Wait! Don't you think it's embarrassing to bully a girl like this?" At this time, Su Cheng would naturally come forward.
Everyone looked at Su Cheng.
"Where did this loser come from? Want to be a hero to save the beauty? Do you know who my brother is? He's in the underworld!" The middle-aged customer, taking advantage of his drunken strength, stood up suddenly and wanted to make a move.
At this time, bodyguards such as Old Liu stood out, and their aura immediately changed.
Looking at them wearing uniform suits, coupled with their strong bodies, everyone knew that these people were bodyguards at a glance, and they couldn't be provoked!
The middle-aged man immediately cowered and sat back down.
"We should be reasonable when we come out to play, right? She soiled my suit, isn't it normal to pay compensation at the original price?" Gathering his courage, the middle-aged man began to reason.
"You want to be reasonable, right? Then I'll reason with you. Don't say that your broken knockoff suit isn't worth money, even if it's real, it can be dry cleaned, so why should you pay compensation at the original price!" Su Cheng crossed his arms and looked down at the middle-aged man.
"You're spouting nonsense. This is clearly a Givenchy suit that I spent 1,000 Hong Kong dollars to ask my best friend to buy back from France. How could it be a knockoff brand!" the middle-aged man shouted loudly.
At this moment, more diners came to watch, and they were no longer in a hurry to eat. Chinese people are like this, they like to watch the excitement.
The crowd surrounded them in circles, and some who couldn't see in the back simply stood on stools and stretched their heads to look in the middle.
If there weren't food on the table, they probably would have wanted to stand on the table.
Seeing so many people watching, the middle-aged man seemed to have courage again, as if he really had a reason, and everyone would definitely support him, and his sitting posture became much straighter.
There are three updates today. This is the first update. There will be two more updates in the afternoon. Please support me, collections, recommendation tickets, and monthly tickets are all welcome~
