Hong Kong Films: Doing business, the three Tony brothers come to seek refuge

Huo Jingliang stretched out his hand to Chu Bai, "Let's go, I'll take you in, today's race is about to start."

Chu Bai nodded, and led Luo Tianhong to the Jockey Club venue.

As for the security personnel who came together, most of them were waiting outside, and it was enough to go in with a few to help with the bags.

A group of people entered the Jockey Club lobby, and Huo Jingliang led Chu Bai straight to the front desk.

"Hello, Mr. Huo."

Seeing Huo Jingliang, several staff at the front desk bowed to him and said.

Huo Jingliang hummed lightly, "This is Mr. Chu, the chairman of Sihai Group. I recommend him as a new member of the Jockey Club. Please help him with the formalities."

After speaking, Huo Jingliang took out his membership card and handed it to the staff.

"Alright Mr. Huo, please wait a moment."

The staff took the membership card with respectful hands and put it on the machine.

Then he asked Chu Bai to enter his identity information, and handed Chu Bai a brand new membership card in no time.

"Mr. Chu, you are a member here from now on." The staff smiled sweetly at Chu Bai.

Chu Bai took the membership card and looked at it. The material of the card is special. It is not the common PVC plastic, but a very textured metal material. The surface has been frosted. membership number.

"It's done so easily?" Chu Bai was a little surprised. This was different from the information he had read. It clearly stated that even if a registered member was recommended by an old member, it would be extremely troublesome, and it might not be [-]% approved.

Why did Huo Jingliang join the club in just one word?

Huo Jingliang chuckled, "I recommend it, it's that simple."

"Mr. Huo is a senior member of our club. If you are recommended by Mr. Huo, you can save a lot of tedious review process."

The staff explained to Chu Bai thoughtfully.

It was only then that Chu Bai realized that with Huo Jingliang's status, it was normal for him to have some privileges in the Jockey Club.

"It's almost time, Marseille is about to start, come with me."

Huo Jingliang looked at his watch and said to Chu Bai.

"it is good."

Chu Bai followed Huo Jingliang out of the front desk, and the group took the elevator to a luxurious box on the third floor.

Along the way, Chu Bai saw a lot of boxes, but the size and decoration were not as good as the one they came to. From here, we could see Huo Jingliang's status in the Jockey Club.

The decoration in the box is luxurious, and the side facing the racecourse is a huge floor-to-ceiling window, which can clearly see the situation of the whole racecourse.

At this moment, the participating racehorses were already waiting in their stalls, with a stern-looking rider riding on their backs.

"The time is just right, we'll miss it if it's 2 minutes later." Huo Jingliang was relieved to see that the game hadn't started yet.

He sat down on the soft leather sofa and said to the secretary, "Open a bottle of champagne. I will celebrate with Mr. Chu later."

The secretary bowed, turned and walked towards the wine cabinet in the box.

"Celebrate? What do you mean?"

Chu Bai was taken aback when he heard the words, he could understand drinking champagne, but he didn't know what to celebrate.

Huo Jingliang laughed, "I have a good horse on the sidelines. When the race starts, it will definitely be the champion."

"Mr. Huo is so confident?" Chu Bai asked curiously.

"Of course, my batch of horses is named Black Whirlwind, because it runs so fast, like a whirlwind.

I have seen all the other horses in today's competition, and none of them are opponents of Black Tornado. "

Huo Jingliang said confidently that he was not [-]% sure, and he would not let the secretary open the champagne right now.

Otherwise, he would lose face in front of Chu Bai if he failed to win the championship.

"Then I'll wait and see."

Seeing that Huo Jingliang was so confident, Chu Bai couldn't say anything.

At this time all the horses in the field are ready.

The starter, holding an orange flag, walked to the side of the track.

In order not to disturb the horses, Marseilles will not use the starting gun as a signal, but wave the flag, mainly for the riders to see.

"start!"

At the same time as the starter waved the small flag in his hand, the doors of all the horse stalls opened together, and the [-] competing horses rushed out from inside.

Horse racing is different from other competitions. It will be intense from the very beginning, somewhat similar to the [-]-meter sprint in track and field.

The fourteen racehorses galloped vigorously under the control of their respective riders, and the scene was extremely chaotic for a while.

"Mr. Huo, what's the number of your black whirlwind?"

Chu Bai looked at it for a while and asked.

He basically didn't know anything about horse racing, so he was a little confused.

"Number four." Huo Jingliang said.

"Number four?"

Chu Bai was stunned for a moment, he looked at the field, there were three horses running in the front, namely No. [-], No. [-] and No. [-].

And horse number four...

Chu Bai searched among the large troops, and after looking for a long time, he finally found Huo Jingliang's Black Whirlwind at the bottom.

"Mr. Huo, the situation of your Black Whirlwind is not very good. This is almost the bottom one."

Unexpectedly, Huo Jingliang was not worried, but smiled and said: "At first glance, you are the first person to contact horse racing. The initial ranking is of little significance. Some horses have strong explosive power, so they can take advantage from the beginning.

But in the second half of the track, whether we can hold the advantage depends on the patience of the horse. "

"So, Black Whirlwind is a patient horse?" Chu Bai said thoughtfully.

"That's right, Black Whirlwind's strength is not explosiveness, but patience. He is a lagging horse, and it's time for him to exert his strength after halfway through the race."

Huo Jingliang said calmly, raised the champagne in his hand and took a sip.

"Mr. Chu, don't worry, the final champion must be Hei Xuanfeng."

Hearing Huo Jingliang's explanation, Chu Bai nodded.

He is a pure newcomer in horse racing. After hearing what Huo Jingliang said, he realized that horse racing has so much emphasis.

Chu Bai focused his bets on the field, and stared closely at No. [-] Black Whirlwind.

Soon, halfway through the race, Chu Bai realized that, as Huo Jingliang said, the black whirlwind began to exert its strength.

It gradually surpassed one racehorse from the bottom, and the ranking continued to rise, approaching the top three racehorses in the blink of an eye.

At this time, after running for a while, the top three racehorses no longer had the explosive power they had at the beginning, and gradually showed signs of fatigue.

After all, the physical strength of the horse race is there. It exploded at the beginning, and it will definitely be weak in the follow-up.

Black Whirlwind quickly surpassed No. 2 and No. [-] and came to the No.[-] position.

"it is good!"

Seeing this scene, Chu Bai applauded.

Huo Jingliang smiled slightly, "The real fun has just begun."

As his words fell, the arena changed again.

At this time, the race schedule was coming to an end, and the finish line was just around the corner. At this moment, Hei Xuanfeng, who had been in a stalemate with No. [-], suddenly increased his speed and surpassed No. [-] in one fell swoop.

And the speed of the black whirlwind is getting faster and faster, quickly opening up a large distance from the rest of the racehorses.

Then he crossed the finish line with a large lead.

"Pretty!"

Seeing that Hei Xuanfeng suddenly reversed the situation at the last moment, Chu Bai stood up directly from the sofa and cheered.

Although it was the first time for Chu Bai to watch the Marseille, he already felt the charm.

In contrast, Huo Jingliang was much calmer. After all, he was a member of the Jockey Club, and he had seen [-] horse races if not [-]. Moreover, it was already within his expectation that Black Whirlwind won the championship.

"Mr. Chu, cheers."

Holding the champagne, Huo Jingliang clinked glasses with Chu Bai.

"cheers."

Chu Bai drank the champagne in his glass in one gulp, with an expression of disbelief on his face, "I never thought that what Mr. Huo said before would actually come true."

"It's nothing. Black Whirlwind's strength lies here. After you become familiar with horse racing in the future, you can also do it."

Huo Jingliang smiled faintly.

Chu Bai nodded. After this race, he also became very interested in horse racing.

Afterwards, Chu Bai and Huo Jingliang watched a few games together, and the time came to the evening unknowingly.

"Today's game is all over."

After the last game ended, Huo Jingliang said.

Chu Bai let out a sigh of relief, "After watching so many horse races, this trip is worthwhile."

"It's getting late, so I'll sue..."

Chu Bai looked at the dark sky, and wanted to say goodbye to Huo Jingliang.

But at this moment, Huo Jingliang said: "Mr. Chu, don't leave in a hurry, there will be a charity party later, let's go to it together."

"Charity party?" Chu Bai was taken aback, "I never heard of it."

It stands to reason that such things as charity evenings will be leaked in advance and published in newspapers.

"It's not public, it's just a party among members of the Jockey Club." Huo Jingliang explained.

"So that's the case. Well, I'll go and take a look."

Chu Bai said.

As a new member of the Jockey Club, he couldn't miss such an occasion.

"Trust me, you won't regret going to this party."

Huo Jingliang smiled mysteriously at Chu Bai, and said, "Let's go, the party will be held in the banquet hall of the Peninsula Hotel, and the time is right now."

"Okay." Chu Bai looked forward to Huo Jingliang's words.

He took Luo Tianhong, left the box with Huo Jingliang, and walked out of the Jockey Club.

The motorcade of the two people at the gate was ready. Chu Bai and Huo Jingliang got into the car and drove towards the Peninsula Hotel.

Ten minutes later, the two arrived at the Peninsula Hotel with the convoy.

There were two rows of welcoming guests standing in the lobby of the hotel. Seeing Chu Bai and Huo Jingliang coming in, the hotel manager immediately walked over with a smile on his face: "Mr. Huo, Mr. Chu, please follow me."

It is not a problem to recognize 100% of the wealthy businessmen in Hong Kong Island if they are able to hold the position of manager in the Peninsula Hotel.

As Huo Jingliang and Chu Bai, they were naturally among them.

Under the guidance of the manager, the two took the elevator to the banquet hall on the top floor of the hotel.

As soon as he entered the banquet hall, Chu Bai understood that it was not unreasonable to choose the Peninsula Hotel for the Jockey Club's charity gala.

The decoration here is extremely luxurious, and it can even be called resplendent and magnificent.

Everywhere you look, all the details are well-decorated.

Chu Bai also noticed that there were some oil paintings hanging on the surrounding walls. He looked carefully and found that all of them were genuine works.

Although they are not masterpieces handed down from generation to generation, they are all valuable.

Chu Bai and Huo Jingliang walked around the giant champagne tower at the entrance of the banquet hall and walked into the hall.

Holding two glasses of champagne in his hands, a waiter walked up to the two of them.

"Thank you."

Chu Bai took a cup and said casually.

"Come with me, I'll introduce a few people to you."
