Chapter 115 The Li Family

  Zhao Jiajie's hand stopped in the air, looking very embarrassed, but he showed his self-restraint at this time, and calmly withdrew his hand.

In his impression, although these rich second generations in the city don't know each other well, they have heard of each other's parents anyway, and they have a little impression of each other. Some families were family friends in the previous generation. They are very familiar with each other.

   And those children of newly promoted rich people don't have much confidence when introducing themselves, and often add the names of their parents when introducing themselves. When people who are really confident introduce themselves, they mostly just say their name, and they don't use their parents or other titles to show off themselves, because they themselves are a symbol of strength.

  The young man surnamed Zhong in front of him was either ignorant or arrogant. But which one it was, Zhao Jiajie didn't see it for a while.

"what?"

   Just when Zhong Shi finished greeting and poured himself a glass of red wine, Zhao Jiajie suddenly found that the logo on the cuff of Zhong Shi's suit hadn't been cut off, and with his eyesight, he couldn't even recognize the brand of the suit.

   Now he understood everything. It turned out that the arrogant young man in front of him was actually a trickster, and he didn't know how he got in. Most likely, he was a relative of the Liao family, who was brought by Liao Chengde to open his eyes.

   At the same time, a group of young masters following him also noticed the strangeness of Zhong Shi's cuff, and all showed contemptuous expressions on their faces. Zhong Shi glanced over and took everyone's expressions into his eyes. His expression remained unchanged, but he was secretly looking forward to it: the drama is coming.

   Just when Zhao Jiajie was about to taunt and humiliate Liao Xiaohua, Xu Mai walked to the steps directly in front of the hall, took a microphone and tapped twice, attracting the attention of everyone who was whispering in the hall.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the dinner hosted by Hualian News. In the past year, Hong Kong's investment in the mainland has exceeded the 10 billion mark. Thank you for your support for the construction of the motherland. On behalf of the party and the The people express their heartfelt thanks to you all.”

  He speaks in an official tone, but in his capacity, he has to say these words. After all, this is a public event and a semi-official gathering, so these clichés are inevitable.

As soon as the voice fell, there was a burst of warm applause in the hall, and everyone applauded politely, but most of the younger generation had disapproving expressions on their faces, while the older generation was just the opposite, most of them listened respectfully Listen, the thoughtful expression on his face is naturally capturing the implication of this official statement.

“I’m here to make a promise to everyone that the government’s policies towards Hong Kong’s business community will not change in any way, and everyone is welcome to continue to invest in the mainland. In addition, I would also like to thank you for your support for charity in the mainland, especially in the During the flood in East China, your generosity helped many victims rebuild their homes..."

  Xu Mai on the stage talked eloquently, and most of the people who listened carefully in the audience smiled knowingly after hearing his assurance, and their expressions relaxed after taking the reassurance. They know that the promise made on the attitude towards Hong Kong businessmen is definitely not something that a mere deputy ministerial official can make, and it must have been instructed by the Yenching government to do so.

  When the dull and lengthy speech finally ended, there was a burst of warmer applause in the hall, and the atmosphere relaxed. Immediately afterwards, prominent figures in the Hong Kong business community came to the stage to speak, flattering the Yanjing government in disguise.

  However, most of their speeches lasted three to five minutes, unlike Xu Mai's long-winded speeches. Of course, this has something to do with their status, but it is more due to the limited time. Even the richest people can only speak a few words.

At the end of the speech, it was the turn of Mr. Li Jiacheng from Changhe Industry, who has been the most popular in recent years, to give a speech. Wearing a pair of wide-rimmed glasses, he was smiling and brought a 30-year-old young man who looked exactly like him to the stage. .

Changhe Industrial has benefited from the development of the real estate market in recent years, and now its market value has reached tens of billions, and the net worth of Li Jiacheng, who holds nearly half of the shares of Changhe Industrial, has also risen as a result, and his net worth has reached the tens of billions mark , becoming the richest man of the new generation in Hong Kong.

   "Thanks to Mr. Xu, Changhe Industrial will continue to support the economic construction of the Mainland. Today, I will introduce Gouzi to my colleagues. Li Jiangli, who has just returned from Canada, will gradually hand over Changhe Industrial to him in the future..."

  After his introduction, the young man standing behind him smiled shyly, bowed slightly to everyone present, and then retreated back behind Li Jiacheng.

In the past few years, Li Jiacheng has grown older, and training successors has also begun to be put on the agenda. Before that, he had introduced many old friends in the circle to Li Jiangli. Now, taking this opportunity to make Li Jiangli's public appearance is also considered Fully expand his network.

   "Zhong Shi, this buddy is really lucky!" Liao Xiaohua, standing beside Zhong Shi, sighed enviously.

   "Really?" Zhong Shi replied disapprovingly. If you know that this Mr. Li Jiangli encountered the biggest crisis in his life a few years later and was openly kidnapped by gangsters, making Li Jiacheng pay one billion Hong Kong dollars in cash to redeem him, Liao Xiaohua might not have the current idea.

  In addition to these, there is also a younger brother who is more capable than him, especially after creating another wealth myth, which casts a shadow over his succession.

   "Why, do you have a problem with Mr. Li Jiangli?"

  Zhao Jiajie, who was listening with his ears erect, finally seized the opportunity and hit Zhong Shi without hesitation. Even in their circle, a super rich second generation like Li Jiangli is the object of their envy.

   "Uh...it's nothing special, just having a good dad."

  Zhong Shi nodded disapprovingly. For those who were born with a golden key in their mouth, except for those who can carry forward their ancestral business again, it is not bad for other people to be able to keep up. People who "fight for father" are just lucky, but they are nothing special, at least not in front of a reborn person like him.

  Hearing this, Zhao Jiajie realized that what he was facing was an ignorant and arrogant guy, and he suddenly got excited: "Since Mr. Zhong said so, is it possible that you are richer than him?"

   "It's possible. I guess my net worth is about the same as his dad's now, and definitely much more than his." Zhong Shi nodded honestly and replied seriously.

  Zhao Jiajie was completely dumbfounded. Before, he thought the young man in front of him was an uninformed character, but now, he turned out to be a bragging, undrafted, even a little neurotic character. If I continue to talk to such a person, I'm afraid it will become a big joke in the circle of young masters.

  What he doesn't know is that everything Zhong Shi said is true, and more importantly, Zhong Shi's funds can be withdrawn at any time, which is much more real than the wealth on the books.

  Take Li Jiacheng as an example. Most of his wealth is in the stocks of Changhe Industrial. This wealth fluctuates at any time, and it is difficult to cash out. Because he is the single largest shareholder, once he cashes out, the market will definitely have a lot of suspicion about it, which will lead to a wave of selling, and the stock price of Changhe Industrial will also fall, followed by a sharp decline in his net worth.

  Zhao Jiajie decided to ignore Zhong Shi, and turned to Liao Xiaohua, who had been "staying out of the matter" all the time: "Mr. Liao, I heard that you lost 500 million gambling in Macau. Is it true?"

   This incident is an indelible stain on Liao Xiaohua, and it is also a laughing stock in Hong Kong's rich second generation circle. These young masters often gamble on weekdays, but they are not as outrageous as Liao Xiaohua. When they met Liao Xiaohua, they naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity to beat the dog in the water.

   It's just that they don't know that the Liao family has already walked out of this deep pool, and their current wealth is much greater than before. It's just that Liao Chengde's current business needs to be low-key, and it's not a listed company, and its finances don't need to be disclosed, so these young masters don't know about it.

   Just imagine, if the Liao family became an ordinary family, how could they be invited to this gathering of high society?

   "..."

  Liao Xiaohua knew he was wrong, he hesitated for a long time, but he didn't say why. This kind of performance naturally attracted a burst of low-pitched ridicule from the many young masters behind Zhao Jiajie.

Zhong Shi frowned slightly, looked around for a while, and found another group of young people not far away, just looking at this side leisurely, pointing from time to time, he suddenly understood in his heart, dare to love these two groups Competing in secret, the target of the topic is him and Liao Xiaohua.

  Zhong Shi's guess was right, another group of young people also noticed the abnormality between him and Liao Xiaohua, but they had a scheming plan to instigate Zhao Jiajie and his group to come over to provoke, and then watch the jokes of these two groups of people.

   It's just this Zhao Jiajie, who looks elegant and polite, and doesn't want to be a man without a chest, why can't he see through this simple provocation? What Zhong Shi doesn't know is that once a woman is involved in everything, no matter how well-mannered a man is, there will be times when he loses his demeanor.

   "Yes! Is it because I can't even eat enough now, and I still come here to eat and drink?"

   "I guess I'm not full yet. There are still a lot of lobsters there. Would you like to take some and continue eating? I'm afraid you haven't eaten such delicious food for a long time!"

   "That's right! That's right! When you go back, don't forget to pack some more, so that the family can try something new. I don't know when the next time I can eat these!"

  …

The voices of ridicule sounded one after another, and Zhong Shi shook his head helplessly. He did not expect that these well-dressed young people would be merciless when they hurt others. The second generation, on the contrary, is more like a shrew who yells at the street.

  Liao Xiaohua's face was flushed, his fists were clenched, and he was on the verge of erupting.

   First of all, thanks to book friends Black Sky Meteor, Lei lsq, and rexjue for their monthly support! Thank you for the many rewards that made me think about it!

I want to say a few more words today. Seeing that the number of favorites is gradually decreasing, the author is really depressed... Since it was put on the shelves, I feel that the number of friends who pay attention to this book is gradually decreasing... This book can be written today, it is all due to everyone's support, I only hope More friends don't give up, which also encourages the author not to give up. I sincerely hope that friends can work together with the author and persevere, thank you.
