Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 601 Opening up new markets

Unfortunately, it takes more than just having money to buy the ultra-luxury watches Taylor and Margaret have.

The 18K gold strap of the watch on Margaret's hand is studded with rubies the size of a fingernail and is worth more than to pounds.

Not to mention ordinary people, even some nobles are reluctant to buy such an expensive watch from a new brand.

Some nobles have a glamorous appearance, but in fact they are so poor that they cannot even afford to maintain their family castles, or even hire full servants.

And seeing that Philips gets 20 pounds from the royal family every year, you know that 5 pounds is still very valuable in this era.

This was one of the reasons why Margaret did not hesitate to agree to Chu Qianqian’s help in publicity.

After taking the necessary photos, Chu Xiangqian took Margaret and invited Taylor to go to Harder, Nelson, Bridge, Gebai, Lucas, Blair, Charles, Hahn, Turner, Fat The private room booked by Bo, Lan Gang, Baifanyu, Lei Luo and others.

As shareholders of Wu Hao, nine ghost guys including Hader, Ge Bai, and Nelson jointly share 9% of the shares.

Fei Bo, Lan Gang, Bai Fanyu and Lei Luo together control 10% of Wu Hao's shares.

The remaining 50% is naturally in the hands of Chu Xiangqian.

Needless to say, these ghost guys definitely want to have sex with her, but unfortunately the price of 10 US dollars a week and the tens of thousands of dollars spent during the trip also make them reluctant to part with it.

And guys like Ge Bai always remember that when the champion knight participated in the speed competition for the first time in Xiangjiang, Chu Xiangqian stayed alone with the champion knight in the stable for a while.

As for the three ghost guys, Charles, Hahn, and Turner, that’s half a year’s income.

The three old guys, Ge Bai, Hader, and Nelson, had actually noticed Taylor for a long time, but their attitudes towards Taylor were not too positive.

After getting enough points, this horse has actually become quite famous in the horse racing circle.

This time, if Wu Zhui wins the first leg of the Triple Crown of Horse Racing again, the remaining two races will basically be a sure thing.

Not many people would bother him now, but this also made Chu Xiangqian's horse farm on Hong Kong Island famous in the horse racing circle.

After some introduction, Margaret's attitude towards Fei Bo and others was pretty good.

Ge Bai and Taylor even went to an island together for a week before they separated.

But the more critical the moment, Ge Bai, who is participating in the Triple Crown race as a horse owner for the first time, becomes more nervous and worried.

Chu Xiangqian ignored Ge Bai's words. He met Wu Hao yesterday and secretly took Wu Hao into Novice Village and drank a blood bottle.

Naturally, there was no need for Chu Qianqian to look at it again.

Not only did he not have any contempt for Taylor, but he became more and more enthusiastic.

After Chu Xiangqian upgraded Wu Zhui by one level, he also specially added some points to his strength, with a constitution of 1.4, strength of 2.2, and agility of 1.5. This made the horse run wildly with the rider on its back, as if there was no one on the horse.

As for Hader and Nelson, since Gebai has succeeded, as long as the money is available, they can also invite Taylor to travel together for a period of time.

All injuries and fatigue have been recovered, and Wu Zhui can be said to be in full condition to participate in the competition.

As a horse owner, although Margaret attended most of the award ceremonies on his behalf, in fact, it was his English name Chu Xiangqiang who left his name in the history of English horse racing.

Chu Xiangqian didn't feel excited about participating in this competition. After all, last year's champion Cavaliers had already won the Triple Crown.

The reason is simply because they spent a lot of money to have an intimate relationship with Taylor through Chu Xiangqian.

Chu Xiangqian thought that their meeting would be awkward, but he didn't expect that Europeans and Americans do have very different ideas from Asians on certain things.

The six ghost guys, Bridge, Lucas, Blair, Charles, Hahn, and Turner, had heard Ge Bai and the others brag when they were playing cards at the Peninsula Hotel.

It can be said that Wu Zhui's path is more stable than that of the champion knight.

Wu Zhui is a hard-working horse and is famous for his endurance. He has great advantages in running 2400 meters and 2800 meters.

Fortunately, Chu Xiangqian raised the champion knight in Margaret's manor early on, and the breeding rights were also handed over to Margaret.

Because he had 6 months to prepare, Wu Zhui participated in many second- and second-level horse racing competitions during this period.

Moreover, after the name, it is also specially marked that the horse owner is a Hong Kong citizen of the Ying Federation.

No one knew what he was doing in the stable during this period, but after he was alone with Champion Knight, the horse became excited as soon as it hit the track, which was also said by Champion Knight's rider Lindsay himself.

Chu Xiangqian didn't care that Bridge and others turned into licking dogs, held Margaret's hand, and walked in front of Fei Bo, Lan Gang, Bai Fanyu and Lei Luo.

Otherwise, the horse racing auction held at the end of last year would not have had twice as many buyers as the first auction.

As soon as Chu Xiangqian and Margaret entered the large private room, Ge Bai, Hader and others immediately surrounded them.

A horse without a rider will naturally run faster than a horse with a rider on its back.

Chu Xiangqian smiled and extended his hand to invite Taylor to come forward, and said to Ge Bai and others, "Gentlemen, be gentlemen, this is Taylor, you don't need to introduce me, right?"

"Stark, how about you go to the stables and see our baby in person before the horse racing starts?"

But that didn't stop them from thinking that if they attracted Taylor, they could get away with it for free.

But after seeing Taylor dressed up today, several ghost guys immediately regretted it.

As long as anyone is willing to investigate, they can actually find out the real owner of the Champion Knight, who is Chu Xiangqian.

It goes without saying what I did during this period.

Converting hundreds of thousands of U.S. dollars into Hong Kong dollars, it amounts to six to seven million. Although this is a lot of money, it is not worth it to Bridge, the executive director of the Jockey Club, and Lucas and Blair, the deputy commissioners of the police. That's too much.

After getting enough points, I was successfully invited to participate in today's speed race at the first stop of the Triple Crown.

As long as they are not married, even if Taylor has a record of killing hundreds of people, after meeting each other, ghost guys like Ge Bai may find her even more attractive.

It was at the end of last year that Wu Zhui decided to participate in the Triple Crown.

When she went to Hong Kong Island for the first time last year, Margaret met Fei Bo and Lan Gang at the police headquarters because of Chu Xiangqian's arrangement.

Later, when we went to the cruise ship to eat Hong Kong-style food stalls, Fei Bo personally led the team and acted as the outer guard.

It can be said that Margaret still has a good impression of chubby Fat Bo.

On the contrary, he was a little unfavorable to Lan Gang, who was considered handsome.

Firstly, no matter how handsome Lan Gang is, he is not as handsome as Chu Xiangqian, and secondly, he looks a little serious compared to the silly Fat Bo.

But even so, Margaret's attitude towards Blue Steel is much stronger than Lei Luo and Baifanyu.

At least she can chat with Lan Gang for a few words, and Lan Gang's English is indeed very good, so there is no problem in communication. Not to mention Fei Bo, his uncle Liu Fu had suffered from not knowing English back then. Before his nephew entered the police force, he arranged for Fei Bo to marry Chen Yanxuan, who had studied abroad.

As the eldest daughter of a wealthy local family in Hong Kong Island, Chen Yansui's English is better than her Chinese. After the two got married, Fei Bo naturally learned English.

Only Baifanyu and Lei Luo can't even speak a few words in daily life.

Fortunately, Chu Xiangqian and Baifanyu had always had a very good relationship. Margaret chatted with Fei Bo and Lan Gang, while he talked to Baifanyu and Lei Luo.

As they talked, Margaret had always focused on Chu Xiangqian, and heard him talk to Bai Fanyu about the movies produced in Hong Kong Island and entering Southeast Asia, Tianzhu, Europe and South Africa.

He quickly focused his attention on Chu Xiangqian again, and this little girl taught herself Cantonese and can now understand a lot.

As for her spoken language, although it was not standard, no one present would laugh at her.

On the contrary, I felt that Chu Xiangqian was so powerful that he could actually make her, a princess, take the initiative to learn the dialect of the Celestial Dynasty.

Naturally, Chu Xiangqian had no intention of caring about whether Margaret could speak Cantonese. Thinking about Baifanyu, he said that in the past month or two, the box office of the romantic movies produced in Hong Kong had not only dropped by several percent, Ge Bai The prices these ghosts buy movies for are 3% less than before.

This is actually quite normal. After watching too many romantic movies, and the new movies of the production company are not innovative, the audience will naturally find them boring.

Moreover, Cathay Pacific and Shaw Brothers started to make this kind of movies in Southeast Asia, and the box office was pretty good.

Chu Xiangqian shook his head helplessly. There is no way to stop this kind of thing, and you can't stop the capital from Southeast Asia who want to make money from movies to enter this field.

If you can't compete in business competition, then kill your opponent. In the end, this person will definitely become the enemy of the entire industry.

After Chu Qianqian thought for a while, he could only whisper in Baifanyu's ear, "Don't you have many island women who want to be movie stars and make more money?

Then tell them that if they want to be famous, they have to be serious about it.

However, don’t use the trademark of your film company to produce this kind of film.

Go to an island country and register a shell film company. Shooting can continue on Hong Kong Island, but the film will be distributed using this island country company.

Not only will they be less scolded, but they may also be able to easily enter the island country market.

Also, remember that it is best to use the entire film in the island country, and then have people take the film and go to the military bases of the island countries and South Korea.

Those big-headed soldiers have nothing to do all day long. For entertainment, they might be willing to buy a film for thousands or tens of thousands of dollars. "

Baifanyu's eyes lit up, this idea might really make a lot of money.

There are so many bases overseas. If you sell one base, a dozen of them can cost tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.

It is equivalent to earning back the shooting cost immediately.

And if the leaders of the Magnesium Soldiers feel that the business of screening romantic films is profitable, after showing them to the Magnesium Soldiers, they can focus on the island countries and the locals in South Korea.

With the hegemony of the Chinese people, even if South Korea and island countries oppose it, it will be useless.

Baifanyu couldn't help but give Chu Qianqian a thumbs up. Since he couldn't prevent competitors from appearing, he should take the initiative to open up more markets.

The first person to eat the crab will naturally make the most profits as long as it operates well.

And after all, this kind of thing is inconsistent with the current morality. Even the Chinese people would probably hide it and secretly release it.

This means that for at least a few years, other film producers have never thought of this way to make money.

When he thought about making hundreds of thousands or even millions of Hong Kong dollars from a movie, the more he thought about it, the more excited he became.

When Fei Bo, Lan Gang and Lei Luo saw this, they didn't know that Chu Xiangqian was pointing a clear path for Baifanyu.

Otherwise, how could this old boy like Baifanyu smile so brightly?

Margaret was the only one who showed no interest in the matter at all.

In her eyes, her man's iron ore business with Philips alone was worth millions of dollars in one transaction.

It only takes a few transactions a year to achieve a turnover of 20 to 30 million US dollars.

A business in Hong Kong that earns hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars, or hundreds of thousands of US dollars, naturally makes Margaret disdainful.

Pulling Chu's forward arm, "Dear, the radio is broadcasting the list of horses for the 1600-meter speed race."

Chu Xiangqian and others' attention was now focused on the track.

People like Taylor and Ge Bai also realized that the game was about to start when Chu Qianqian and others walked out of the private room and entered the viewing stand.

They followed each other out of the private room, and soon saw that the track was being cleared. Ten minutes later, horses carrying riders on their backs were led onto the track by their trainers and began to walk adaptively.

Wu Zhui probably had a lot of aspirations to win the championship, so he was lucky enough to be placed on the fourth track.

As expected, the rider is the woman Lindsay Wood again.

As a champion rider, the first female rider in history, and a phenomenal rider who won the Triple Crown in her first year, Lindsay is now very popular with women from all walks of life.

At the same time, many men are disgusted and even hostile.

To put it bluntly, in this era where men dominate everything, the emergence of Lindsay means that women are beginning to break the monopoly of men in the field of competition.

For many men, this is a challenge to their authority.

However, no matter how many fights and calculations there are, Margaret will not be affected by the media being sought after as a champion knight.

So much so that Elizabeth sometimes expressed dissatisfaction and envy towards Margaret's high profile and exposure.

Fortunately, since realizing that Margaret could no longer threaten her throne, Eliza's tolerance for this rebellious sister has increased a lot.

And although Margaret liked to show off in front of her sister, she still listened to Chu Xiangqian's words and gave Elizabeth the first breeding rights of the Champion Knight for free.

I heard the mare was close to giving birth.

If a champion foal is born, even if it is not a Triple Crown-level horse, Elizabeth can realize her championship dream.

After winning the speed championship, Chu Xiangqian believes that Elizabeth will think about heading towards the Triple Crown.

This would be extremely difficult. Unless Chu Xiangqian was willing to sell her an upgraded horse racing horse, Elizabeth might struggle with this wish for the rest of her life.
-

After the 12 racehorses walked around the track, the audience could see clearly the status of the racehorses, as well as the advertising slogans on the horses and riders.

Also allow the horse to finish warming up.
