Return to Singapore 1995

Tang Jiaming took Li Xiaofan and A Bin into the Bentley luxury car. The car drove through the bustling city with lights and lights. Five minutes later, they stopped under a building and everyone got out of the car.

Li Xiaofan looked up: Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium, also translated as Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium. The hotel is on Otrium Road, and there is a subway station called Outram Park nearby, which is called Outram Park MRT Station in English.

After the elevator went up to the fifth floor, Li Xiaofan saw the oncoming sign in Chinese and English: Deluxe Lido Palace Lido Palace.

Oh shit, only then did Li Xiaofan realize that this place turned out to be one of the top entertainment venues and most luxurious nightclubs in Singapore: Lido Palace Nightclub! I've only heard of it before, but I've never been here. It's said to be very expensive.

Legend has it that the Lido Palace Entertainment Group is Singapore's premier entertainment carrier. It was officially opened in 1985 and enjoys a high reputation in Singapore and throughout Southeast Asia.

Similar to the "heaven and earth" in the capital in those days, according to the jargon, this is the place where the wealth of Southeast Asia blends, and where celebrities gather. For many Southeast Asian businessmen and celebrities, it is the first choice for relaxing physically and mentally, discussing business and socializing.

It is said that this is the only performing arts club that has been awarded the Best Entertainment Venue Award by the Lion City Tourism Promotion Bureau. Celebrities and businessmen gather here, and countless celebrities, supermodels and singers from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and mainland China have performed here, including Xu Xiaofeng, Anita Mui, Huang Yingying, Luo Wen, etc. Stars and beauties gather every night, attracting wealthy businessmen and celebrities from all over the world. The high-end brand effect of spending here has become a noble symbol that demonstrates identity and status.

In his previous life, Li Xiaofan had been to bars in Singapore, but he had never been to a nightclub like this.

But he once heard that there are two types of nightclubs in Singapore. One is where girls make clocks in private rooms, like the Lido Palace now, where all the big-money customers come here to spend money; It's a flower hanging place, and the main thing is to sing and hang flowers on customers and then get a commission from the boss.

The flower hanging field in Singapore is similar to the domestic interpretation bar. When the singer is singing, if there is a guest who likes the singer, he will give the singer a flower hanging, which is equivalent to a tip. After singing, he must greet the guest who hung the flower hanging and toast him. Singapore's nightclubs give singers a nickname: "Singer". The hanging flower market in Singapore is divided into men’s market and women’s market. Audience members buy garlands and give them to the singers they support, commonly known as hanging flowers.

After Li Xiaofan followed Tang Jiaming into the Lido Palace, he took a look at the hall and stage inside. Although it was relatively spacious and a bit resplendent, it still felt a bit old-fashioned compared to the domestic nightclubs before his rebirth. But think about it, it's 1995, and this place is already considered the most upscale nightclub in Nanyang.

There is a "female singer" on the stage in the hall who is performing Teresa Teng's song "When Will You Come Again"? She sings her voice with emotion and professionalism. Then rows of beauties wearing short cheongsam lined up to appear at the front of the stage, with small round signs with numbers hanging on them, just like a beauty pageant. Waiting for the following guests to choose their wine companions.

"Hey, Brother Ming, long time no see!" As soon as they entered the door, a female customer service manager who looked like a domestic mommy welcomed Tang Jiaming and his party into a luxurious box inside. Li Xiaofan could feel that Tang Jiaming was a frequent visitor here.

The female manager introduced herself as Shirley. She looked like a sexy young woman in her thirties. She wore a tight cheongsam and a short skirt, and her front and back were curved. She was full of charm. She smiled like a flower when she saw Tang Jia Mingming, and she held Mingming's arm intimately. Brother's arm.

"Oh, I just came here last week. What do you mean, long time no see!"

"It's because the sisters miss you as a good big brother! Brother Ming, bring a new friend here today..."

"Come on, Shirley, let me introduce you. These two are my little brothers. This is A Bin, and this handsome guy is called A Fan..."

Shirley handed over the business card enthusiastically: "Good evening, two handsome guys. This is my business card. Please take good care of me in the future..."

"Brother Ming, what are your plans tonight and what are you going to drink?"

"Let's take the old set meal first, and then you can ask these two handsome guys what other needs they have! A Bin, and Afan, which girl do you like to drink with you?"

Shirley smiled and said: "Two handsome guys, we have beautiful singers here from mainland China, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Japan, South Korea, Europe and other places. I wonder what kind of taste you like?"

This is the first time for A Bin to come to this kind of place, just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, blushing and saying: "Whatever, whatever, whatever you want will do!"

Li Xiaofan was a salesman in his previous life, so he had seen the world. Before his rebirth, the KTV hardware in mainland China was much more luxurious than here, but he really didn't know the depth of the water here, so he casually said: "I also listen to Brother Ming, feel free. Brother Ming , I might sit down and leave, I have to go to work tomorrow..."

Brother Ming frowned and said: "Afan, relax a little, it's okay, it's only what time! Singapore's nightlife has just begun!"

"Shirley, please call some pretty girls in first so we can have a look!"

"OK!"

After the waiter brought out an XO Martell wine set, a fruit plate and other snacks, Shirley brought a row of girls into the private room.

The girls are all very tall, and they seem to be mainly Chinese girls. There are also a few beauties from all over Asia and Europe, with all kinds of skin colors. It feels like a small United Nations.

A Bin picked a Chinese girl with big waves.

After Bin finished choosing, Brother Ming said, "Fan, it's your turn. See which one you like more. If you don't like any of them, why don't you switch to another round?"

At this time, Li Xiaofan's sunlight fell on a Chinese girl in a white cheongsam in the far right corner. It was not because she was the most beautiful, but because the girl's dress was a bit strange. Every girl on the side had been carefully made up and dressed up. The suspender skirt, short skirt or high-slit cheongsam was very fitting, trying to show off the slim and devilish figure to attract customers.

But the white cheongsam on this girl looked obviously one size too big. The wind from the air conditioner vents on it made her look very tight. The high-slit skirt fluttered in the wind, revealing her long white legs. She was also carrying a very inappropriate large casual bag, which was out of place compared to the exquisite dresses of the girls on the side.

Shirley was very good at observing people's expressions. Seeing that Li Xiaofan had been looking at the girl in the white cheongsam, she smiled and said, "Brother Afan, you have a good eye! This Xiaoyuer is our new beautiful singer. She sings very well. How about letting her accompany you tonight?"

Li Xiaofan smiled and said, "Okay, I'm not picking a wife anyway. As long as I'm happy, let's go with her!"

"I'm not picking a wife!" This sentence was Li Xiaofan's catchphrase when he went to KTV in his previous life.

In his previous life, Li Xiaofan was most annoyed by those customers who picked the girls who accompanied him to drink in KTV like they were picking a wife.

Many times, the personality of a person can be seen from the style of picking girls in KTV.
