Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

August 2nd.

This day happens to be Saturday.

On this day, the Huo family held a full-moon banquet for the eldest grandson of the eldest family member. It was a grand event, and everyone who had contact with the Huo family was invited.

Of course, Lin Baicheng was also invited. He received the formal invitation letter as early as a week ago.

That night, Lin Baicheng took Guan Zhilin there. The reason why I brought Guan Zhilin there is because Guan Zhilin and Zhu Linlin have a good relationship, and Zhu Linlin is considered half of the protagonist tonight.

There were many guests tonight. Not to mention Lin Baicheng and other outsiders, there were many people from the Huo family alone.

First of all, Huo Yingdong himself has four sons and one daughter, not to mention his brothers and sisters. These brothers and sisters have also started their own families and started businesses. The eldest son, the eldest grandson, and the full moon wine are all here.

In addition, many relatives such as Huo Yingdong's uncle and children came over.

The Huo family is a big family, and there are dozens of guests from the Huo family alone.

When Lin Baicheng and Guan Zhilin went to Zhu Linlin's place to see Huo Qigang, there were many Huo family members there, including the elderly and the younger ones. Lin Baicheng didn't know these people, so he and Guan Zhilin just looked at the baby. , then said hello to Zhu Linlin and left.

When they came outside, Lin Baicheng and Guan Zhilin were arranged to sit at the same table as Bao Yugang and others.

"President Li, I respect you."

Lin Baicheng took the wine glass and stood up to toast Li Fuquan, the second president of Xinhua News Agency, who was sitting next to him.

"It should be me, Mr. Jing Lin."

Li Fuquan stood up in a dignified manner.

"I am a junior, so there is no reason to ask President Li to toast."

Although in terms of social status, Lin Baicheng is no worse than Li Fuquan, Bao Yugang and others, but his age is there after all. If you don't want people to think that he is arrogant, domineering and arrogant, then respecting the elderly is a must.

Besides, Li Fuquan is the second president of Xinhua News Agency and represents the mainland. He cannot leave a bad impression on others, as this will not be conducive to his future development in the mainland.

Lin Baicheng also did not forget Bao Yugang and others, and toasted to them, and everyone responded politely.

Guan Zhilin did not sit aside and watch. At Lin Baicheng's signal, he also toasted to the big guys at the same table. For Lin Baicheng's sake, everyone responded with a smile.

Everyone drinks and chats.

After the banquet started, Huo Zhenting and Zhu Linlin toasted table by table.

The baby Huo Qigang was not taken out, mainly for the sake of the baby's health. There were so many people at the banquet, and it would be bad for the baby to be infected with bacteria if he came into contact with them too much.

After the banquet, Lin Baicheng and Guan Zhilin left together.

On the road, in the car.

Guan Zhilin leaned on Lin Baicheng and said uncertainly: "Brother Cheng, I don't know if I saw it wrong. Sister Linlin doesn't seem very happy. It shouldn't be. Today is her son's full moon day." , she should be very happy."

"She should be happy."

Lin Baicheng couldn't help but smile: "She just married into a wealthy family last year, and this year she gave birth to an eldest grandson for the Huo family. Her status as a daughter-in-law of a wealthy family will be as stable as a mountain because of this eldest grandson, so she should be happy on today's big day."

"If that's the case, then why?"

Upon hearing this, Guan Zhilin looked at Lin Baicheng in confusion.

"Didn't you notice? We didn't see the Zhu family in the main hall today."

Lin Baicheng stopped pretending and said his guess: "In this case, either Zhu Linlin's natal Zhu family was not invited to the full moon banquet today, or they were arranged in another side hall. No matter which case it is, Zhu Linlin won’t be happy, right?”

"It seems so."

Guan Zhilin recalled: "I have met Sister Linlin's sister and mother, but I didn't see them tonight."

Lin Baicheng shrugged slightly: "This is actually quite normal. Didn't I hear you tell me last time that when Zhu Linlin got married, her sister didn't even attend her wedding? She didn't even attend the wedding, let alone the second one. A child’s full moon of wine.”

Zhu Linlin married into a wealthy family like the Huo family, which was definitely a high achievement. Whether the Huo family didn't want her to have too much contact with her natal family, or she tried not to have any contact with her natal family in order not to be looked down upon by the Huo family. In some formal occasions, she It is very normal for the maternal family to be unable to attend.

This is the price Zhu Linlin needs to pay for marrying into a wealthy family. She married into a wealthy family and lived the life of a wealthy wife. How could it be possible without paying the slightest price?

"Brother Cheng, sister Linlin must be sad, right?"

Guan Zhilin and Zhu Linlin get along quite well, and she doesn't have many friends, so she cares about Zhu Linlin, one of her few friends.

"only the guy drinking water knows it's cold or hot."

Lin Baicheng hugged Guan Zhilin: "Young fool, you don't need to care about how others are doing. Everyone will have unsatisfactory moments in life. The Huo family is a wealthy family among wealthy families. If she marries into the Huo family, she will have troubles. There are very few worries anymore. Most people in this world can't compare to her, so she doesn't need your concern."

"Instead of caring about whether she will be sad because of this kind of thing, you might as well care about your own beauty contest. I heard from President Huang of ATV that there will be several outstanding beauties entering the finals this time. Don't you? I will definitely win the championship.”

Lin Baicheng didn't care how Zhu Linlin was doing. In the end, it had nothing to do with him.

"I will definitely become the champion!"

After hearing this, Guan Zhilin said confidently that she was very confident in her beauty and felt that her talents were not bad, so the possibility of becoming the winner of this ATV Miss Beauty Pageant was very high.

"It's good to have confidence, but don't cry if you lose."

Lin Baicheng vaccinated Guan Zhilin. He had never seen the beauties from South Korea and Japan who entered the finals, but there was Lan Jieying from Wutai Mountain in Xiangjiang. There was not much difference between the two in terms of beauty, but also in terms of talent. It's hard to say, so Guan Zhilin is not 100% able to become the champion.

Of course, the probability of Guan Zhilin becoming the champion is still very high. Her relationship with Lin Baicheng cannot be hidden from the judges. At least Iwasaki Mineryu and Huang Xizhao know it. Therefore, although Lin Baicheng said in advance not to take care of Guan Zhilin, he still Maybe everyone will still vote for Guan Zhilin because of his face.

Not to mention completely biased towards Guan Zhilin, even if there are beauties who are on par with Guan Zhilin, if the judges are slightly biased towards Guan Zhilin, the winner will be Guan Zhilin.

"I won't!"

Guan Zhilin wrinkled his nose playfully at Lin Baicheng.

"It's okay if you don't. Just don't forget what you said."

Holding Guan Zhilin in his arms, Lin Baicheng changed the subject and chatted with her about something else.

"correct."

While chatting, Guan Zhilin suddenly remembered something: "Brother Cheng, I want to ask you a favor, can you?"

"Of course, Jiahui, just say it, as long as I can do it, I won't refuse."

Lin Baicheng basically agreed. As long as what Guan Zhilin said was not extremely difficult to accomplish, he would help her get it done. Guan Zhilin followed him, he was his, and if he needed his help if there was a problem, he had no reason to refuse or not help.

"Brother Cheng, you are so kind!"

Guan Zhilin happily kissed Lin Baicheng hard on the face, and then said: "A few days ago, I heard my father say that he wanted to try to do some business. Brother Cheng, you are so good at business, so I want Brother Cheng to You help my dad and give him some advice on what kind of business he should do better."

"Uncle, he is an actor. He is not yet 50 years old. Why is he suddenly thinking about doing business? Aren't you going to make movies in the future?"

Lin Baicheng certainly didn't know anything about Guan Shan, his prospective father-in-law. He still knew some basic information.

"No, he can also film."

Guan Zhilin shook his head and explained: "He is just trying to do some business, and the filming will continue. But according to his opinion, if the business does well, he may stop filming in the future and focus on business."

"That's it."

Lin Baicheng nodded slightly and asked, "Did uncle say what kind of business he wants to do? Or is it that he just has the idea of ​​​​doing business but has not yet decided what kind of business he wants to do?"

"I don't know about that."

Hearing this, Guan Zhilin shook his head: "Dad, he just said that he wanted to do business. He didn't say much, and I didn't ask him. Brother Cheng, must you know what kind of business dad wants to do? If you want to If so, I’ll go back and ask him tomorrow.”

"It's better to ask."

Lin Baicheng said: "Since it is a business, it is best to be in an industry that he is familiar with or likes, so that the business can be done well. But it is okay if uncle has no direction. I have an idea here. You can tell your uncle. "

"Brother Cheng, tell me."

Guan Zhilin listened carefully.

Lin Baicheng: "The clothing and textile industry is an important pillar industry in Hong Kong. My uncle can buy a small factory to do garment processing. In terms of orders, the companies under my name have thousands of employees in total. The employees' work clothes can be given to my uncle." The factory produces goods in four seasons, spring, summer, autumn and winter, and each employee needs at least two sets of work clothes. The order is at least tens of thousands of sets, which is enough for my uncle's small factory to survive."

"In addition to the orders I gave, my uncle's factory can also find other companies. After my uncle makes the factory bigger, he can make his own brand clothes and recruit his own designers to design clothes. Then the company can become bigger and stronger. .”

“Food, clothing, housing and transportation are essential for people.”

"As long as the company can survive in the clothing industry, there is no need to worry about the company not making money."

"Of course, the orders I give can only be a guarantee for uncle. Whether the company can become bigger and stronger depends on uncle's own abilities."

Lin Baicheng will give Guan Shan a general direction, and if necessary, he will send assistants to help the other party set up the company, but he does not know how to be a nanny. If the mud cannot help the wall, then he will have to let the other party's company collapse. .

"Brother Cheng, then I will let my father do this. Anyway, I will definitely listen to you, brother Cheng."

Guan Zhilin knows nothing about business, so she doesn't know what kind of business can make money, but she knows that Lin Baicheng's business is so big and strong, and she will definitely not go wrong by following his advice in doing business, at least. Much better than her dad trying to figure it out on his own.

"Jiahui, you'd better ask your uncle what kind of business he wants to do. No matter what kind of business he does, I can help him to some extent."

Lin Baicheng smiled and said, even if the business that Guan Shan wants to do is in an industry that he is not involved in, with his current ability, it is not a problem to take care of Guan Shan's small business. Basically, it can be solved in one sentence. .

"Um."

Guan Zhilin responded. She didn't understand these things anyway, and she asked Lin Baicheng for help because she didn't want her father to fail in business.

She didn't understand anything else, but she knew that her parents had just divorced. If her father failed in business under such circumstances, it would definitely be a serious blow to her father, so she wanted to ask Lin Baicheng for help.

While chatting, the two came to the villa where Guan Zhilin lived. Lin Baicheng naturally spent the night here tonight.

After entering August, the preliminary round of the third Miss Asia contest has come to an end. The top twenty in Xiangjiang are about to be decided, and only these twenty can enter the final.

On the fifth day.

The top twenty of the Miss Asia contest have come out, and the three beauties Huang Xizhao recommended to Lin Baicheng that day, Lan Jieying, Xia Wenxi, and Shang Tian'e, are among them.

Of course, Guan Zhilin is also among the top twenty. Not to mention that she is very beautiful and has good talent. Even if her talent is not good, Lin Baicheng will open the back door to let her enter the finals. No matter what, she must not be too sad.

However, Guan Zhilin herself is very good, so she doesn't need Lin Baicheng to open the back door for her.

Because the rankings entering the finals are meaningless, there is no specific ranking for the top twenty. They are all contestants and beauties who have entered the finals.

This time, the top 20 beauties from Hong Kong will compete with the top 10 beauties from South Korea and Japan to select the top 20 beauties who will advance to the finals.

In other words, there will be twenty beauties who will be eliminated before the finals.

The time for the first round of the finals has been set, which is Saturday and Sunday, August 16th and August 17th.

After the first round of finals, the finals will be held on the weekend of the following week.

The beauties from South Korea and Japan will come to Hong Kong in the next two or three days, and then all the beauties will receive a week of basic training so that the beauties can have a better performance during the competition.

Lin Baicheng did not go to the preliminary round to determine the top twenty beauties. He stayed in the laboratory.

However, it’s hard to predict the first round of finals, but if there are no surprises in the second round of finals, Lin Baicheng will still participate as a judge.

But before that, Lin Baicheng needs to take some time to entertain the team leaders from South Korea and Japan.

This time, both South Korea and Japan were led by TV station directors. Lin Baicheng guessed that they had some business to discuss with ATV, otherwise it would be a beauty pageant that would not require them to make this trip in person.

Lin Baicheng was not sure whether the business of ATV or even Asia Star Media Group could enter the markets of South Korea and Japan, but it never hurt to make friends with the directors of the two TV stations, so Lin Baicheng decided to take time to entertain them personally.
