V1.Chapter 66 (1/2)
After the press conference, the auction ball.
Tonight's dance seems to be a special show for a girl. She is the chairman of the newly established Huaxia group. She is a famous feng shui master in the upper circle.
She is still a student. She just went to high school, but she started from scratch and created such a big family business.
Shopping malls have never been a place without miracles. But she absolutely refreshed this miracle, with such a young attitude and such a rare identity.
It is another rare identity that makes these experienced old foxes smell an unusual taste.
Huaxia group has a chairman as a feng shui master, which is bound to make Huaxia stand aloof in the mall. Just think, who will offend a feng shui master? What will be the accumulated contacts of the young chairman with his attainments in this field? It is bound to be a huge network, and what amazing benefits will this network bring to the development and growth of Huaxia group?
The old foxes who thought of this were shocked. This shock was as shocked as the shock at the press conference. It seems that it can be foreseen that a dark horse will be killed in the mall and soar all the way. I don't know how high it will reach.
You know, she's only sixteen! If you give her ten years, what kind of behemoth will Huaxia group grow into?
Such foresight has changed the faces of these celebrities whose eyes are higher than the top. They raised their glasses and congratulated one after another. Among these people, Lin Xiangquan and his wife are an embarrassing existence.
Mrs. Lin turned her lips and muttered in a low voice, ”chairman? Huaxia group doesn't know how to get here. Who knows if it was opened with the money cheated by those magic wands!”
”Shut up!” Lin Xiangquan lowered his voice and stopped his wife. Although some of what he said at the press conference may not be credible, as a person in the mall, Chen was so famous in the province at the beginning. After his business failed, many people are still paying attention to his trend. At that time, he did not have the funds to make a comeback. The statement at the press conference that Xia Shao started with the money from the auction of three antiques is credible. Despite the girl's mysterious identity as a feng shui master, it is rare for young people at this age to dare to do so. Not every young man can have such courage, courage and resourcefulness.
”Go home and take good care of your daughter! You spoiled her! If you have nothing to learn from others, see what they are doing when they are young and what your daughter is doing? If you don't stop all day, you know to cause trouble for me!” Lin Xiangquan said angrily.
Mrs. Lin frowned when she saw him talking about her daughter. ”What do you mean by that? I'm afraid it's not your daughter? You're not spoiled? If something happens, you know to blame me!”
Mrs. Lin's voice was raised a little, which attracted some people's attention. Lin Xiangquan looked pale and immediately pulled his wife aside. The general manager of leading enterprises in Tangtang east city, which should have been the focus of attention in such dances, has become an embarrassing existence tonight.
Xia Shao just didn't see it. Other people turned their heads and continued to congratulate Xia Shao with a smile as if they didn't see it. With praise, admiration, compliment and solicitation, Xia Shaoli is indifferent to these voices of fame and wealth in the world.
Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan had already found a leisure area to sit down, but their eyes never left their daughter. They looked at her standing among a group of upper class celebrities in a light tan and elegant cheongsam. Her face was soft and beautiful. They still looked like a girl, but their grace and indifference have grown.
In the shocking atmosphere at the press conference just now, there is nothing more complicated than being a parent. Looking at the daughter who thought she was a clever and sensible daughter some time ago, now as the chairman of the group, people pay attention to the changes and taste in a few words.
But at this moment, nothing tastes more than gratification.
Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan looked at each other. The couple smiled with a hundred tastes in their hearts. In the twinkling of an eye, their eyes turned with their daughter. Turning around, Li Juan frowned slightly and said anxiously, ”Oh, these people are good at persuading wine. We xiaoshaozi never drink. Don't get her drunk.”
Xia Zhiyuan smiled, ”That's champagne. It's not high. That's the way the mall is. These bosses like to persuade them to drink. My daughter has set up such a group company. I'm afraid there will be many meals and dances in the future. I think she knows that we can't always follow her in the future. She should exercise to deal with these. Moreover, I think she can cope well. After so long, she hasn't finished a glass of champagne.”
The couple looked at their daughter in the leisure area. Not far away, Chen Manchuan and sun Changde also looked at Xia Shao with a glass of champagne.
Sun Changde's eyes lit up, ”Brother Chen, our summer is always great! Look at those people congratulating her. She hasn't moved the glass of champagne in her hand since half an hour ago. In terms of communication, it's necessary to be able to create topics that interest the other party. You see, her expression is so natural that she's like an old hand! If I hadn't known her for a while, I'd be happy I can't believe she's a high school student! ”
Chen Manchuan smiled and said with emotion, ”isn't it? When I met President Xia, I didn't have Fu Ruixiang. It can be said that I came all the way with her. Sometimes I felt with emotion. When I was with President Xia, I couldn't feel the age gap with her.”
Sun Changde nodded thoughtfully with his wine glass, ”indeed.”
He looked at Xia Shao's back and sighed, but he caught a glimpse that Lin Xiangquan and his wife had handled the quarrel. They both walked back into the crowd and seemed to want to talk to Xia Shao.
Sun Changde raised his eyebrows and looked at the other side, but his head slightly gathered around Chen Manchuan and asked, ”brother Chen, Xia always said that Lin always had a disaster. Do you think it was to scare him, or is it true?”
Chen slam also looked at it. When he mentioned these things, he looked serious. ”I haven't seen summer always joke about these things. It should be true.”
”That is to say, it will come true?”
”I believe so.” Chen slam nodded, convinced, ”what do you do with this?”
Sun Changde smiled and his eyes brightened. ”Brother Chen, you don't know. When I was in the United States, I knew that porcelain was very popular there. The rich businessmen and celebrities there loved our Oriental porcelain crazily. If we take the high-end route, it will sell well.”
”What do you mean?” Chen has actually heard it.
”I mean, even if Lin falls, the policy of Dongshi to vigorously develop the ceramic industry will not change. As the leader of Dongshi's economy, if Lin is empty, someone must fill it. President Xia has a lot of friendship with Mr. Li. Why can't we replace it and cooperate with Hong Kong Jiahui group?”
”It's a good idea, but it's hard to guarantee that someone will say we take advantage of people's danger.” Chen said so, but his expression was completely different. take advantage of another 's perilous state? Where can we take advantage of others? If something happened to Lin Zong, it was neither caused by them nor forced by them. In Xia Zong's words, it is cause and effect, and the blessing has its own reward. They just didn't step in. Everyone has a blessing in disguise. No one is a natural Savior. He is duty bound to eliminate disasters and solve difficulties. In Xia Shao's words, the cause and effect of life and death is too great. It depends on whether this person is worth it.
Sun Changde naturally saw that Chen Manchuan didn't think so. He shrugged and said with a smile, ”don't worry so much! Shopping malls are like battlefields, and they already cheat on each other. Compared with us standing idly by, those who design to embezzle other people's assets should be stabbed in the spine. Only when we stand high and go far can we better protect ourselves. Let those who gossip look up!”
Sun Changde drank the wine in the cup, blinked, glanced at Xia Shao's back and smiled, ”besides, you can't guarantee that Xia Zong's acquisition of Wu is not the same as I think.”
Chen slam smiled and nodded, ”it's possible!”
”It's very possible!” Sun Changde said firmly. He changed a glass of champagne from the waiter's tray and looked at the leisure area. ”Let's go. We don't have anything to do tonight. We'll accompany president Xia... Er, parents.”
Chen was called Lei by his parents, shook his head and smiled bitterly. Isn't it? Children of ordinary age still need parental supervision, don't they?
Xia Shao is busy dealing with many people talking around, but Chen manguan and sun Changde are leisurely and angry. They sit with Xia Shao's parents and talk about some of Xia Shao's usual deeds to Xia Zhiyuan and Li Juan. They really look like people who make tabloids with their parents.
From time to time, laughter came from the leisure area. Xia Shao often glanced at the past without trace and was slightly moved in her heart. Chen and sun Changde contributed a lot to their parents' rapid adaptation to this occasion for the first time.
The ball didn't break up until 10 p.m. after all, it couldn't open too late. There was a formal auction the next day, and it had to be a busy day.
After the event, Xia Shao accompanied his parents and was escorted out of the hotel by people accompanied by Chen Manchuan and sun Changde. Li Boyuan and Liu Jingquan left soon after the press conference. After all, Li Boyuan was old and came to the scene after getting off the plane. He needed to go back to the hotel he booked.
Therefore, when such a group of people came out of the hotel, Xia Shao took the lead and became the most eye-catching existence.
The media reporters waiting outside didn't even leave. As soon as they saw people coming out, they rushed up, and the flash was crackling again. Li Juan went to the car and took a small shawl to put on Xia Shao. It's summer now and it's not cold at night. But when her mother loves her daughter, she saw that she had just drunk some champagne at the dance and came out to blow the wind. She's afraid she might catch a cold.
Xia Shao simply answered some more questions. Under the protection of sun Changde, Chen manguan and hotel security, Xia Shao got into the car and drove away from the hotel slowly.
In a car across the street from the hotel, people came to block up, but Xia Zhimei and Xia Zhitao, who witnessed all this, were silly.
”Is that the eldest brother and sister-in-law's family? How...” Jiang Qiulin looked over there with an uncertain look on her face.
Although Li Juan's dress is not eye-catching, it can be seen that the material is good, the style is generous and dignified, and the temperament is really poor compared with usual, not a bit! And Xia Zhiyuan in Western clothes? I haven't seen it in the New Year! Not to mention xiaoshaozi, look at that cheongsam and shawl, surrounded by a group of reporters and protected by security guards. Which star has this pomp?
Xia Zhimei's face also changed a few times. She had heard her son's phone and rushed over to have a look. I didn't know that when they came, they had already entered the hotel. Their family didn't receive the invitation and couldn't get into the hotel. They had to wait outside. After waiting for more than three hours, I became more and more angry. I originally wanted to wait for the eldest brother's family to come out and calculate the accounts these days. I didn't know that a group of reporters outside surrounded me.
The two families were stunned by this posture and didn't dare to get off at all. When the three members of Xia Shao's family got on the bus, the two families reacted.
”The car drove away! What should I do?”
”What else can I do? After looking for so long, I can still find it for nothing? Follow up!”
”Hey? What kind of car is that? It looks like the new household Mercedes Benz this year?”
”Can't you? I've seen that car in a magazine. Do you have to pay a million?”
”Hiss! Really! Is this brother's car? Did you borrow it?”
I don't know who said such a thing, but I was immediately looked down upon - whose Mercedes Benz is so expensive to lend to others! Besides, people who have such a big face to borrow a Mercedes Benz can still lack money to buy a car?
The car gradually quieted down and the atmosphere surged. Liu Yuguang, who was in charge of driving the car, followed Xia Shao's car and drove all the way out of the city.
The car drove farther and farther away and gradually drove towards the suburbs. The more they drove to the suburbs, the more surprised they looked. Where is this going? Big brother and sister-in-law can still move here? This is the scenic spot of Zhao's folk kiln. It's surrounded by high-end villas. It's expensive! Even Xia Zhimei's family, with tens of millions of assets, invested a lot of money because they opened an auto parts factory last year. With limited working capital, they have not been able to buy a villa here so far.
When the two families were in doubt, Xia Zhiyuan drove in the car of Xia Shao's family in front. Although Xia Shao drove to the hotel, when he came back, his father also loved his daughter. He thought she was tired tonight, so he robbed the driving right.
In the back seat, Xia Shao sat with his mother. Mother and daughter leaned close together and chatted privately. Xia Shao glanced inadvertently in the rearview mirror and frowned slightly, ”Dad, there is a car behind.”
Xia Zhiyuan was stunned. He naturally found the car. At first, he didn't care. He thought it was on the way. But it was a coincidence that he came here all the way. He slowed down slightly and looked carefully in the rearview mirror for a while.
”Ah, it seems to be Zhimei's car...”
As soon as he said this, Li Juan's body stiffened. She turned around and looked carefully behind her. She obviously looked nervous.
I don't blame her for being nervous. After being the daughter-in-law of the old Xia family for so many years, can she not know the temper of her aunt and brother-in-law? Originally, it was reasonable to inform relatives and friends when a family should move. But Li Juan is really a little scared. She knows that her eldest sister-in-law and her little uncle can make things happen when they are all right, not to mention so many things that have happened in her family. They don't know what to say.
Besides, I've been a little busy these days. After moving to a new home, the daughter made arrangements to buy some new clothes for their husband and wife, dragged them to the mall every day, and found a good store and made them to measure. In addition to the auction, her daughter wanted to take her to attend. When she learned that she was going to that occasion, she was very upset, so she didn't want to inform her relatives and friends. I always thought that after this period of time, I didn't know that I was found by my eldest sister-in-law and my uncle and moved.
All right! Wait and see. The two families are bound to talk about their husband and wife again.
Li Juan looked at the car behind her, nervous and nervous. Looking at the husband driving ahead, she asked, ”what should I do, Lao Xia? Stop...”
”What car to park?” Xia Shao answered, looked down and said to his father, ”you can't see how to go. When you get to the door, go straight in, and the security guard will stop us and won't let them come in.”
Xia Zhiyuan glanced back at his daughter, ”I can hide from the first day of junior high school, but I can't hide from the fifteenth day.”
”That can't be controlled by them. Whenever they want.” Xia Shao leaned back on his seat, closed his eyes and rested, and his voice was shallow. ”Dad, mom. You also know who aunt and uncle are. If you do, I can't relax when I went to Qingshi to study.”
Such a sentence is more effective than anything. The husband and wife were stunned. Then they had a mixed face and stopped talking. Xia Zhiyuan drove silently. After a while, he turned the steering wheel and slowly drove into Taoyuan District.
The car drove in unimpeded, but there was a sudden brake at the back.
Taoyuan District?!
The two families sat in the car and their faces changed again and again - did they see it right? Big brother and sister-in-law drove into Taoyuan District?
”This, this place, the house is valuable...”
”I know. It's said that it's built like a garden. It's six million yuan for a house! It's said that there are tens of millions of larger houses! It's more than 100000 yuan to pay property fees a year. Here is the most expensive rich area in Dongshi.”
Xia Zhitao and Liu Chunhui looked at each other, and the rest were shocked. I used to think Liu Chunhui's family was big, but no matter how big his family was, he didn't dare to buy real estate here. That's a real estate, half of the family business!
The two families immediately drove to follow in, but the security guard stopped them.
The security facilities in Taoyuan District are the most advanced. There are basically no dead corners for cameras, and they are monitored all day. The security guards are also high-quality personnel hired from the security company. All of them have some skills and are fully equipped. These people don't talk to you. They look serious when they see everyone. When they sweep their eyes, they can make people tremble in their hearts.
”Sorry, no one can enter without the access certificate and the owner's permission.” the security guard looked so serious that the corners of his mouth were pursed. Xia Zhimei and Xia Zhitao were each scratched by the security guard's knife eye, just like terrorists.
”I'm a relative of the family who just went in.” Xia Zhitao got out of the car to communicate with the security guard.
Where does the security guard care whose relatives he is? Whose family lives here and few relatives come to look for it? Put them all in. Do you want security work?
Seeing that the security guard refused to let people go, Liu Chunhui came out and said, ”I'm the general manager of Chunhui auto parts company, not a suspicious person.”
But the security guard still doesn't enter the oil and salt. Seeing this, Xia Zhimei came out of the car and suggested, ”their family has just moved in, and the original phone number can't get through. Why don't you give us his phone number and we'll contact them ourselves and ask them to tell you.”
”Sorry, we strictly prohibit the disclosure of the owner's personal information. Moreover, you can't enter the community if you have the owner's phone. Unless you have the owner's guarantee, you can apply for the access permit. And we can only let you go after notifying us when the owner is at home.”
The two families looked at each other - so strict?
Xia Zhitao saw that the security guard was soft and hard, so he took out his set of mixing with the building materials market. He came forward with a tiger's face and his face was angry. ”Don't give me this set! I don't know you? Where are the rules so dead? There's no exception? I have to go in today! What can you do to me! Your owner is my brother, can you beat me?”
When he was so horizontal, the security guard's face was not good-looking. He looked back and immediately came out of the security room. There were more than ten people with electric sticks around their waists, and each one was strong. It seemed that they had been trained. Their momentum was different from that of ordinary security guards.
Xia Zhitao knows it's bad when he sees the situation - is this true?
The two families were foolish, so they quickly pulled Xia Zhitao back to the car, sat here and discussed for a while, and reluctantly drove away.
By this time, Xia Shao had returned home with her parents.
As soon as she got home, Li Juan said, ”are you tired tonight? Go take a bath and go to bed. Rest early and have to attend the auction tomorrow.”
Xia Shao glanced at her parents, but the couple seemed to know what she was going to say. Xia Zhiyuan waved and said, ”go and listen to your mother. You don't have to worry about things at home. I'll talk to your mother for a while.”
