Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 697 Old Lawrence
Looking at the thick clouds outside the window, Lin Daoqiu kept staring out the window.

Lang Mayer's boss suddenly wanted to see him, and Lin Daoqiu couldn't guess the other party's intentions.

Universal Pictures is not owned by one company, but the board of directors has many shareholders.

But since Langmeyer can call him the boss, he must be the major shareholder.

The identity of such a person is very mysterious, and basically they will not show their faces.

Lin Daoqiu didn't believe that with a business of only [-] million yuan, he could let the other party talk to him in person.

After thinking for a long time, Lin Daoqiu still couldn't figure out why the other party wanted to see him.

After a long flight, the plane landed steadily at the airport.

As soon as Lin Daoqiu got out of the airport, he saw someone holding a sign with his name on it.

"Hello, Mr. Lin, my name is Lawrence, and I was sent by Mr. Langmeyer to pick you up."

The other party speaks an authentic London accent, which is still very different from American English.

And it seems that compared with the unrestrained Americans, the Lawrence in front of him looks like a gentleman.

"sorry to bother you."

"Mr. Lin is polite, the car is outside, please follow me."

After shaking hands with the other party, Lin Daoqiu left the airport with Lawrence.

After getting in the car, Lawrence sat beside Lin Daoqiu.

This guy doesn't talk much, and he doesn't seem to like chatting with people. If Lin Daoqiu didn't ask him, he wouldn't initiate a conversation.

When the car arrived at the hotel, Lawrence got out of the car and made a gesture of please.

"Mr. Lin must be very tired from a long journey, please rest here for a night first."

Lin Daoqiu was not in a hurry to meet Lang Mayer, anyway, this time he was here to talk about things, and seeing him sooner or later was the same.

After going upstairs, walk into the arranged presidential suite, stand in front of the large floor-to-ceiling windows, and look down at the scenery below, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

"Don't bother Mr. Lin, if you need anything, please call this number, I'll be there on call."

Lawrence handed over his business card respectfully, and then withdrew.

Playing with the card sent by Lawrence, Lin Daoqiu had never seen this person at Langmeyer's side before.

Presumably this guy was not Langmeyer's subordinate, but sent by his boss.

But Lin Daoqiu didn't point it out, but acted like he didn't know anything.

After Lawrence left Lin Daoqiu's room, he got into the car and made a phone call to go out.

"Sir, Mr. Lin has settled down, okay, I see..."

On the other end of the phone, an old man with white hair was standing by the window of a very grand study.

Outside the window is a large garden, and many workers are trimming the flower beds.

"Lin Daoqiu..."

After whispering the name, the old man suddenly narrowed his eyes and laughed.

After resting in the hotel overnight, Lawrence knocked on Lin Daoqiu's door at ten o'clock the next morning.

"Mr. Lin, did you rest well last night?"

After letting Lawrence into the room, Lin Daoqiu sat on the large sofa and said with a smile.

"Very good, thank you Mr. Lawrence for your relationship."

Lawrence nodded first after listening, then he raised his hand to check the time.

"Mr. Lin, the time is almost up, let's set off now."

Lin Daoqiu, who had already washed up and had breakfast, boarded Lawrence's car again.

Lin Daoqiu didn't ask where he was going, and Lawrence didn't say anything. The two of them were surprisingly quiet in the car.

But the strange thing is that Lawrence did not take Lin Daoqiu to Universal, but took him to the seaside.

To be precise, the car suddenly stopped in front of a helicopter.

"Mr. Lin, please."

It looks like another long trip is going on, but this is Lin Daoqiu's first time taking a helicopter.

And when Lin Daoqiu got on the plane and fastened his seat belt, he found that Lawrence did not come up, but stood in the distance and waved to him.

Soon the helicopter started, and with a loud noise, the plane slowly lifted into the air, and then flew towards the destination.

After half an hour's flight, the helicopter landed in a very grand manor.

Just as Lin Daoqiu got off the plane, there was a man dressed as a butler, leading a group of people standing in front of him waiting for him.

"Mr. Lin, welcome to come. I am Hai En, the housekeeper here."

Lin Daoqiu didn't know what this place was, but judging from the posture of the manor, the owner of this place must be a rich or noble family.

After exchanging pleasantries, Hai En took Lin Daoqiu into the villa.

The elevated room looks very grand, and there are many oil paintings hanging on both sides of the resplendent corridors.

Although Lin Daoqiu didn't know much about these things, he guessed that the things here should be authentic and valuable.

Passing through the corridor, Lin Daoqiu was brought to a large room. The furniture here seemed to have been polished to shine, and it looked like antiques from the past.

"What would Mr. Lin want to drink, tea or coffee?"

Lin Daoqiu is not picky about what he drinks, and it doesn't matter what he drinks. Anyway, tea and coffee are basically the same to him.

"Give me a cup of coffee."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Hai En replied respectfully, then turned around to make coffee for Lin Daoqiu.

After a while, a cup of fragrant coffee was brought to Lin Daoqiu.

Picking up the coffee and taking a sip, the fragrance of spring overflows and the aftertaste is long. Although it is a bit bitter, Lin Daoqiu knows that the price of this cup of coffee must not be cheap.

The place where Lin Daoqiu was sitting happened to be facing the floor-to-ceiling windows. Sitting here and looking at the scenery outside the window was a very comfortable thing.

Not long after, the door of the living room was pushed open again. Lin Daoqiu turned his head and saw Langmeyer and an old man walking in from the outside.

"This is Mr. Lin Daoqiulin."

Langmeyer enthusiastically introduced Lin Daoqiu to the old man beside him.

Lin Daoqiu stood up from the sofa, and then walked over with a smile on his face. When he came to the old man, Lin Daoqiu stretched out his hand.

"Hello, I don't know how to address you."

"My name is Lawrence, and they like to call me old Lawrence."

He shook hands with Lin Daoqiu with a smile on his face.

While shaking hands with old Lawrence, Lin Daoqiu suddenly remembered the young man who received him yesterday.

"Foden is my son, you should have seen him yesterday."

Seemingly seeing what Lin Daoqiu was thinking, Old Lawrence smiled and answered him.

Lin Daoqiu just nodded with a smile, but didn't say anything.

Old Lawrence actually sent his son to pick him up. Lin Daoqiu still couldn't figure out what this guy was planning.

Do they value this [-] million deal so much?Otherwise, he would not have specially invited himself to this manor.

But Lin Daoqiu was wrong, because [-] million US dollars was nothing to the old Lawrence in front of him.

The reason why he invited Lin Daoqiu here actually had other purposes.
