Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

After Friday's "Who Can Be a Millionaire" program ended, the host picked up the microphone without immediately entering the commercial break.

"Dear viewers in front of the TV, I would like to introduce to you a competition organized by our station - "Miss Asia"!"

""Miss Asia" is a beauty pageant for all girls between the ages of 16 and 35, all nationalities from Hong Kong, the Mainland, Bay Island, Australia Island, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Thailand and other Asian countries, Everyone can sign up to participate in the competition.”

"The audience friends should listen carefully, because "Miss Asia" has rewards for the contestants."

"Among the champion, runner-up and third runner-up, the third runner-up can get a cash reward of HKD 20,000; the runner-up can get a cash reward of HKD 50,000 and a cane worth HKD 50,000; and the most important champion can get a cash reward of HKD 100,000. A cash reward, a title worth 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, and a contract as the heroine of a TV series, thus allowing her to enter the entertainment industry."

"In addition to these three awards, "Miss Asia" also has three awards: 'Sweetest Smile', 'Best Figure' and 'Best Talent'. Each award can receive a cash reward of HKD 10,000."

"'Miss Asia' is judged on a woman's beauty and figure, so as long as girls are confident that they can win among the beauties, what are you waiting for? Sign up for the competition as soon as possible!"

"As for the contestants, "Miss Asia" requires contestants to be unmarried and not pregnant, have not participated in similar beauty contests, be in good health, not engaged in bad careers, and have no criminal experience."

"Red Girl! Come out quickly, come out quickly!"

Watching the ATV program on TV, Mother Zhong called someone into the room.

"coming!"

A response echoed from within the room.

Zhong Ermei, who was watching TV next to her, couldn't help but said: "Mommy, don't you want your sister to participate in Miss Asia?"

Before Zhong's mother could answer, Zhong Sanmei, who was also watching TV, said, "Sister is very beautiful. If she participates in the competition, she will definitely win the prize."

"Yao Mei is right."

Mother Zhong glanced at her third daughter approvingly, that's what she thought.

"Mommy, what's the matter?"

An eighteen-year-old girl walked out of the room. She had short hair that only reached her shoulders, and beautiful features. There was no makeup on her face, but her extraordinary beauty could not be concealed.

"Red Girl, come here quickly."

Mother Zhong motioned her daughter to come to the side, looked at the TV and said: "ATV held a Miss Asia beauty pageant, which is similar to Miss Xiangjiang, but Miss Asia is judged based on beauty and figure. You look so iconic, red girl, for sure. Someone who can win a prize.”

"Mommy, don't do it. You told me to think about it again."

Zhong Chuhong was a little helpless. She didn't really like to participate in such beauty pageants. She felt like she had become a commodity. Therefore, when Miss Xiangjiang was held this year, even though she was old enough, she was rejected. Zhong's mother agreed to let her She thought about it again and did not force her to participate in the competition.

The reason why Zhong’s mother wanted Zhong Chuhong to join Miss Xiangjiang was because the conditions of the Zhong family were very average. Zhong Chuhong had been her father’s helper since she was 11 years old. When she got a little older, she even worked while studying to support her family. .

In Mrs. Zhong’s view, if her daughter participates in Miss Xiangjiang, she will definitely win an award for her beauty, or at least be among the top few. This way she can become famous, make money through filming, and improve her family’s living conditions.

Among the previous Miss Xiangjiang, Deborah, Zhao Yazhi, Miao Qianren and others all became famous because of Miss Xiangjiang and then acted in movies. Some of them are already very famous. No matter what, the income from filming is much more than if my daughter goes to work.

"Red Girl, this time is different."

Mother Zhong hurriedly said: "The Miss Asia championship reward is 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, a crown worth 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, and a contract for the heroine of a TV series; the runner-up also receives 50,000 Hong Kong dollars in cash and a cane worth 50,000 Hong Kong dollars. ; Even the third runner-up will receive HKD 20,000 in cash. If not, there are three other awards, each with a bonus of HKD 10,000."

"In other words, there are six awards, and the minimum bonus is HK$10,000?"

Zhong Chuhong was immediately moved after hearing this, and had already begun to calculate in her mind how long she would have to work to earn 10,000 Hong Kong dollars.

"My monthly salary is 350 Hong Kong dollars, which is 4,200 Hong Kong dollars in one year, and only 8,400 Hong Kong dollars in two years. It takes more than four and a half months to earn the remaining 1,600 Hong Kong dollars. After nearly two and a half years, this is still not enough. Don’t drink what you earn.”

Nowadays, the average company salary in Hong Kong is a little more than 500 Hong Kong dollars, but this is the average salary, not everyone's salary is higher than this amount.

Zhong Chuhong is just an 18-year-old girl. She does not do manual labor or technical work, and the place she works is not a dance hall. Therefore, her salary is only 350 Hong Kong dollars per month, which is lower than the average salary.

"Red girl, you can't think about anything this time. You must participate in the Miss Asia competition. Not to mention winning the championship, as long as you can win the runner-up, all the tuition fees for your two sisters and one brother will be covered, and you will even be paid. I can have a lot left over to improve my family’s living conditions.”

Mother Zhong solemnly said that this time, even if her daughter didn't want to, she would have to take the initiative and report her name, so that her daughter would participate even if she didn't want to.

"Mommy, don't worry, I will sign up for the Miss Asia competition."

Zhong Chuhong smiled and said that she participated willingly in order to get the bonus. It was very hard for her to work while studying, but her family conditions were not good, so she had no choice but to persevere, so she knew very well that money was not easy to make. Now there was an opportunity to make a lot of money in front of her, and she didn't have to pay anything. Of course I won't let the opportunity slip away.

Zhong Chuhong even thought that if she could become the champion or runner-up this time, her two younger sisters and younger brother would not have to work as hard as her in the future. She did not want her younger brothers and sisters to study and work at the same time like she did. Good results. Only by devoting yourself wholeheartedly to studying can you have more time to study, get better grades, and get into college.

"well!"

Mother Zhong was very happy to hear this and gently patted her daughter Zhong Chuhong's hand.

Afterwards, Zhong Mu and Zhong Chuhong wrote down how to register for Miss Asia. After discovering that registration started tomorrow, they decided to register tomorrow.

That night, the people of Xiangjiang who saw the reports related to the Miss Asia contest, families with beautiful girls but average incomes, made the same choice as the Zhong family.

It is human nature for all humans to yearn for a better life, and more money can often make life better.
