Reborn as the richest man in India.

Chapter 499 The decimal point is extremely insulting (please vote for me)

"No matter how good other countries are, they are not as good as our own motherland." Qiaogo said.

Qiao Ge's words made many people around him secretly applaud.

To be honest, most people look down upon Chen Xiaochou.

It's a pity that they can't offend the Chen family, so they can only deal with it.

"Pedantic." Chen Xiaochou smiled disapprovingly and said, "There is an old saying in China that people go to higher places and water flows to lower places. There is no future in the red sky, so this is a natural choice. This party is If you want to donate, I wonder how much Mr. Gupta is prepared to donate?”

After Chen Xiaochou announced that he was not optimistic about Hongkong's future, he focused on Qiao Ge himself.

This time he wanted to suppress Qiao Ge.

An Indian still wants to show off here?

Others are timid, but you can't be timid.

"May I ask how much Mr. Chen is prepared to donate?" Qiao Ge asked.

"I have always been enthusiastic about charity." Chen Xiaochou said, "Well, I will double the amount donated by Mr. Gupta later."

Qiao Ge stared at Chen Xiaochou and said nothing for a while.

The purpose of this charitable donation is to support education in some poor areas in China.

So Qiao Ge immediately understood his sinister thoughts.

In Chen Xiaochou's view, as an Indian, his relationship with China must not be very good.

Even if I come here to participate in the charity party this time, it is just a meaning at best. Basically, it is just a donation at the lowest price.

So even if he doubled it on this basis, he wouldn't have much money.

Judging from Chen Xiaochou's attitude towards immigrants, Qiao Ge can be sure that he is obviously not interested in donating money to China.

This time I won't give out too much. For Chen Xiaochou, the less money to donate, the better.

But if we directly offer the lowest price, it may be too little, which is a bit unjustifiable. After all, there are so many big guys here.

From Qiao Ge's point of view, it stands to reason that Chen Xiaochou's father should be here this time.

But if he comes over, the amount of donation will definitely be on par with other big guys.

As a family that has immigrated and is not optimistic about Hongkong's future, it is natural that they are not on the same side as them, so they did not come. Letting Chen Xiaochou come over would give him some more leeway.

Now Chen Xiaochou can solve all the previous problems by making an appointment with himself.

By then he had already made twice as much, and no one could say anything.

After all, this was all because his bid was too low, so he couldn't be blamed.

Although everyone said that Chen Xiaochou was usually arrogant and domineering, as a child of these big families, none of them were simple, at least they were not fools.

"Okay, then it's settled, everyone, did you all hear it?" Qiao Ge said and shouted to the people around him.

"How can I go back on what I said?" Chen Xiaochou said solemnly.

This time I should be able to do it with at most 100,000 Hong Kong dollars. How much can this Indian donate?

A few tens of thousands is enough, such as 5.

Of course, Robert Kuok also noticed what was going on here, and he frowned.

He doesn't like Chen Xiaochou and has no good impression of the Chen family.

After talking to a few people around him, he walked to the center stage of the dinner venue.

Seeing his movements, everyone stopped talking and looked at the center stage.

"Thank you all for giving Guo some face and seeing so many friends here tonight. Without further ado, the money raised from this charity dinner is used to donate to some poor dropouts in China, hoping that they can come back to school again. Classrooms, completing studies, building new schools in backward and remote areas, repairing old and dangerous school buildings, etc." Guo said, "I hope everyone can contribute their love, and I will take the lead in donating 100 million. Dollar."

Guo is 70 years old this year, but he looks at least ten years younger and very energetic.

After being busy for so long, I still seem to be very at ease and full of energy.

The reason why Hu Lin appears here is actually for this reason.

After all, this donation will be given to the country, and as a representative of the country, he will have to express his gratitude at that time.

One million U.S. dollars, converted into Hong Kong dollars, is less than 100 million.

As for the RMB, the nominal exchange rate is now more expensive than the Hong Kong dollar.

However, after China's exchange rate reform in 94, the RMB devalued, so it is a little cheaper than the Hong Kong dollar.

At that time, 1 U.S. dollar was exchanged for more than 8 yuan, while the U.S. dollar could only be exchanged for about 7.7 Hong Kong dollars.

The Hong Kong dollar has been a bit more expensive than the RMB for a long time, and it will probably be reversed until after 2007, when the Hong Kong dollar becomes a bit cheaper than the RMB.

At this time in China, there were very few households worth 100 yuan, and million US dollars was definitely a huge sum of money.

Next, all the big guys present donated money generously, ranging from hundreds of thousands of dollars. For example, the main big guys all donated more than 50 US dollars.

Of course, no one makes more than $100 million.

After all, Guo is the master, and no one will steal his limelight.

And this is real money, if you take it out, the less it is, the less it will be.

After making donations one by one, Chen Xiaochou turned his attention to Qiao Ge, because Qiao Ge had not yet spoken out, and they were the last few who had not yet spoken out.

Li Shenjing also reported a suitable amount.

"Brother Qiao Ge, this is your first time here. Just say it and no one will say anything." Li Shenjing whispered.

Of course he knows the relationship between India and China.

So he felt that Qiaogo might be struggling with the amount of donation.

In his opinion, there is no need for Qiao Ge to pay attention to Chen Xiaochou and just donate according to his own ideas.

Jogo came because of his invitation, and if he caused any unpleasantness, it would be his fault.

Qiao Ge smiled at Li Shenjing, and then whispered in Beni's ear.

Beni was stunned for a moment and looked at Qiao Ge, wanting to confirm.

Jogo gave her an affirmative look.

"$49.95." Penny said.

Beni's clear voice immediately attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked at her and Qiao Ge in surprise. Chen Xiaochou's eyes widened. He felt that he must have heard wrongly, or that the woman was confused and reported the wrong unit.

Is this referring to Hong Kong dollars as US dollars?

But even in Hong Kong dollars, this amount is too much for Indians, right?

Maybe Rs?

But if you think about it this way, it doesn’t make sense.

"Mrs. Gupta, I want to confirm, is it US dollars?" Guo quickly recovered and asked.

Everyone had this idea, after all, Beni's amount was beyond everyone's expectations.

So it's very likely that Beni made a mistake, and the Hong Kong dollar is more likely.

Because most of the money here is still in Hong Kong dollars, the previous amounts were converted into US dollars.

Most of the people here who have made the amount that Beni called out are Chinese or local big guys from Hongkong. Almost all of these people have invested in China. It can be said that they are a group of people who are optimistic about returning.

That's why their donation amount is so large.

For those who are not optimistic, especially those of foreign nationality, the donation is usually tens of thousands. To put it bluntly, they are not willing to spend too much money.

Not to mention Qiao Ge, an Indian. Even if he donated tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars, no one would be surprised and wouldn't say much.

But Beni responded seriously and affirmatively.

Immediately, everyone present exclaimed in amazement.

"No way? Are you and Chen Xiaochou involved?" Everyone soon realized that this seemed to be the only explanation.

Otherwise, what reason would this Indian have to donate so much money?

No matter how much money you have, you can't spend it like this, right?

Where is the relationship between the two countries?

"Plenty of money."

"Chen Xiaochou has finally hit the wall."

"He is really the richest man in India. With so many dollars, he can't even blink an eyelid."

Many people present began to whisper, and their eyes went back and forth between Qiao Ge and Chen Xiaochou.

Most of them are certainly worth well over $50 and can even donate that amount.

But donating depends on whether it is worth it.

It is quite rare to make such a large donation just for the sake of a fight of temper and face.

Chen Xiaochou's face turned red and white, very exciting.

According to the agreement of doubling the amount, it would be US$99.9.

This number just doesn't exceed Guo's US$100 million, and it is completely targeted at him.

It also includes a decimal point, which is extremely insulting.

"Mr. Chen, with your identity and status, it should be fine for less than 100 million US dollars, right?" Qiao Ge looked at Chen Xiaochou and asked with a smile.

"Of course, I will not go back on what I said, so I will donate US$99.9." Chen Xiaochou replied as calmly as possible.

You can't lose your composure.

In his heart, he was scolding, "For 100 million US dollars, this kid has been cheated."

One million US dollars is certainly nothing to the Chen family.

In the beautiful country, the family donated tens of millions of dollars not long ago.

But it depends on where the money is donated.

All of my family members have immigrated, and all the assets in Hongkong will be wiped out. They will have nothing to do with this place in the future, let alone mainland China.

Therefore, the $100 million spent by the Chen family has no meaning at all, just like throwing it into the water.

Moreover, he has obviously become the victim of this party, and I am afraid he will become a joke in the circle.

But he couldn't deny it.

So many big guys are here, and they heard what I just said.

So he could only admit defeat in this matter and make himself look more respectable.

Qiao Ge secretly lamented that he could not defraud Chen Xiaochou of more money.

There was no way, Guo's upper limit was set at US$100 million, and he couldn't let Chen Xiaochou donate more than him.

If it really wants to exceed 100 million US dollars, maybe Chen Xiaochou will refuse for this reason.

So under 100 million US dollars, Chen Xiaochou had no excuse. He could only donate the money.

Of course Qiao Ge is willing to donate more to Mainland China.

With Qiao Ge's current net worth, not to mention US$100 million, even tens of millions of US dollars is nothing.

It's just that his identity is not too high-profile when it comes to China.

If you donate too much, if the news spreads back to China, you are afraid that the Tatas will incite nationalism to cause trouble for you and use it to attack you.

Chen Xiaochou's coming out this time really gave him an excuse to donate more.

Otherwise, I can really only donate tens of thousands, at most more than ten or two hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars, which is a huge difference from the current amount.

With this excuse, even if some people in China feel that they have donated too much, there will be an explanation.

That means being provoked by others and you can't bear it.

If we really have to endure it, wouldn’t it make Indians disgraceful?

This is bringing glory to India.

In short, we will not let public opinion be completely unfavorable to ourselves.

Qiaogo believes that the people in the country will take this trip to satisfy their vanity.

Now, this turns out to be just right.

Qiao Ge really wanted to say that Chen Xiaochou was a good man. Who said he was arrogant and domineering?
