Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 132 Banquet Hall

   Enter the banquet hall of the Peninsula Hotel.

  Yang Chen didn't take Xue Yufei around, let alone look for He Chaoqiong and the gambling king.

   At this time, the old man was displeased with him, and he was no doubt asking for hardship when he got together.

In one corner of the banquet, Yang Chen and Xue Yufei sat opposite each other, eating and looking at the rich and famous scattered throughout the hall.

   The two of them are new to the scene, and this is the first time they experience this scene, and they don't know anyone, so it's naturally not good to go up and chat with people rashly.

   Unlike the people Xue Yufei observed, Yang Chen's eyes were always on the small group of people in the center of the hall.

   There were several people Yang Chen had seen on TV in his previous life, each with a wine glass in his hand, and he didn't drink. They gathered in groups of three or five and talked with smiles on their faces.

  Such a phenomenon is very common in banquet halls. Everyone is divided into small groups. People with different identities and statuses will not move their positions randomly to go to the other side of the circle that does not belong to them.

   Invisibly, the level of people is well reflected here.

  In a democratic society, everyone is equal. In fact, very few people can really do this. Even if the law can do this, people will always consciously label themselves.

  Boss, manager, employee, different positions determine their respective status.

  It is obviously very difficult to achieve equality.

   While Yang Chen was observing others, he didn't know that someone upstairs was also observing him.

  Upstairs, Shen Porridge saw that the charter king was looking at Yang Chen below with interest, and couldn't help but smile: "Old Bao, since which child is here, let's go down too."

   As the host of the reception, it is impossible for Shen Porridge not to show up all the time. After all, among the people who come, it is not to be underestimated whether they have an identity.

   Although Shen Porridge is called the Taipan King by everyone, he is actually just a higher-level wage earner. Compared with the real rich people, there is still a little gap.

  The reason why the two of them didn't go down at the beginning was mainly because they were discussing Yang Chen, or after the charter king learned about Yang Chen's details from Shen Cong's mouth.

  I want to have a good look at this little guy who is out of sight of myself and others, and who has made billions of dollars without a sound.

   Moreover, listening to Shen Porridge's tone, it seems that the other party is not limited to this, there seems to be some things that even Shen Porridge can't be sure of.

  Like the charter king, the Taipan King actually observed Yang Chen's every move secretly after Yang Chen came in.

   For this genius who earned hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars a month through the hands of HSBC, even if the other party was young, Shen Porridge did not take it lightly.

  Especially after he received that Yang Chen had intimate contact with the little princess of the Siemens family and the eldest lady of the Linsen family, Shen Conge valued Yang Chen even more.

   HSBC Bank at this time has not yet become a monster with huge influence in later generations. At this time, the influence of HSBC Bank can be at the top level in the world of Xiangjiang.

   Elsewhere, even in the UK, there are not a few consortia that can suppress HSBC.

   Therefore, for Yang Chen to have a relationship with a big European family and a big local family in the UK, Shen Cong was very surprised, and he was very optimistic about Yang Chen's future.

   I have to say that a capable man, while possessing a certain strength, also has an appearance that is fatally attractive to women, which is really a huge advantage.

  Although Shen Porridge has not officially contacted Yang Chen, but when the other party was able to resolutely withdraw from the huge vortex in Kuwait when everyone was crazy.

  Only with this vision and decisiveness, Shen Cong is very optimistic about Yang Chen's future.

  Otherwise, he would not have sent a handwritten invitation letter to Yang Chen.

   The two of them went downstairs, which naturally caught everyone's attention. One was the Taipan King who was in charge of HSBC Bank, and the other was the famous charter king who abandoned the ship and docked.

   The status of the two is absolutely unmatched by everyone present. As for the Governor, this kind of capitalist gathering usually does not come.

   After saying hello to the people next to him, Bao Yugang walked towards Yang Chen with a wine glass.

   Yang Chen, who had been observing, saw the charter king coming, and quickly got up with Xue Yufei, and went up to meet him.

   "Uncle Bao (Uncle Bao Yang Chen and Xue Yufei both bowed to the charter king and gave a junior salute.

Bao Yu just nodded and accepted the greetings from the two, then looked at Xue Yufei and said with a smile: "Our family Yufei is really getting more and more beautiful, she will become a big girl in the blink of an eye, I think it will be soon, old Xue. It's about to hold a wedding for the two of you, so don't forget to send an invitation to Uncle Bao."

   Regarding this, Yang Chen smiled and nodded, but did not reply, while Xue Yufei pursed her lips, a little shy.

   After joking, Bao Yugang gave Yang Chen a meaningful look, and said with a smile, "Why are you both sitting here and not going around?"

   Regarding this question, Yang Chen touched his nose and smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say.

   Saying that you don’t know people, it’s not easy to go up and disturb, or that you have no interest in talking to people who are one level below you? Will it be too loud?

  As soon as Bao Yu saw him like this, he knew what was going on, so he said, "Then what, since Lao Xue didn't come today, let me take you to see him."

After    finished speaking, Bao Yugang joked to Xue Yufei again: "Niece Xue, wait here for a while, Uncle Bao borrows your sweetheart and will return it to you later."

   After being teased by Bao Yugang, Xue Yufei was not angry, she nodded generously and said, "Uncle Bao, go and leave me alone."

   Bao Yugang is not his own blood relative elder after all, it is already very good for the other party to bring Yang Chen, if he brings her again, it is obviously not suitable.

  Yang Chen squeezed Xue Yufei's hand, and whispered in his ear, "Wait for me to come back here."

  "Press" Xue Yufei nodded with a smile, seeing that Bao Yugang had turned around, he pushed Yang Chen with his hand, motioning him to follow quickly.

  As the charter king, his every move naturally attracted the attention of countless people. After seeing the other party going downstairs, he found Yang Chen and brought the other party by his side, everyone was a little surprised.

   When Yang Chen and Xue Yufei came in, everyone didn't care much, but when Yang Chen was brought by the charter king, the situation was very different.

   During this period of time, with the continuous reports of the Hong Kong media, everyone admired Yang Chen, a young man who gave the people of Hong Kong a long face.

   However, appreciation is for appreciation, it is obviously impossible for them to let go of their identities and take the initiative to greet and contact Yang Chen and a junior.

  In the Chinese circle, we pay attention to the order of elders and children, and the age difference is too big, sometimes it is really a hard injury.

   But, contrary to everyone's expectations, as soon as the famous charter king appeared, he took Yang Chen with him.

   That attitude, what it means, everyone can guess with their toes.

   But it was because they guessed it that everyone was blinded and couldn't figure out the situation.

   To say how good the relationship between the charter king and Xue's father is, it seems unlikely that they have reached the level of personally supporting the younger generation for the other party.

   Friendship of the older generation is friendship, and you want the older generation to personally carry the younger generation. Except for the blood relatives and elders, the other older generation support outsiders, unless the other party has something special and is particularly valued by the older generation.

  Otherwise, no one would use his own resources to pave the way for outsiders for no reason.

   After all, if you carry a person, then the person who is carried will naturally be labeled as the king of the ship. If the person to be carried will have a future, it will be a very face-saving thing.

   But once the person who is brought up is unsatisfactory, then he will be unknown.

   Therefore, many older generations are usually very cautious about supporting people with foreign surnames. Even if there are people who admire them, they mostly do it in private.

   In such a large crowd, it is almost rare to bring people around directly.

  Once this is done, then the relationship between the two will be put in front of others. If anyone dares to move Yang Chen for no reason in the future, then the attitude of the charter king must be taken into account.

  Because of this, everyone felt strange. They didn't understand that the charter king had taken a fancy to Yang Chen, and it was worth such a big investment.

   Today, Yang Chen's most dazzling talent is his talent in music, which can make countless foreign reporters travel thousands of miles to Hong Kong to inquire about him.

   This musical talent is truly unmatched among his peers.

   But even so, he should not be supported by a generation of ship kings with all his might, and he carried him by his side with a clear code, which was comparable to his son-in-law.

   For a while, everyone's eyes were focused on Yang Chen, guessing what the other party used to get the attention of the charter king.

   Following the charter king, Yang Chen successively greeted real estate tycoon Li Chuanji, New World founder Zheng Yutong, Li Jiacheng, who has been the richest man for many years in future generations, and Xu Shiyun, the second generation of the ship who became He Chaoqiong's father-in-law in his previous life.

  Eh, there is another gambling king who still looks a little unpleasant to him.

   For Yang Chen, the junior who was introduced by the charter king, several big bosses also gave the charter king face, and each of them said two words to Yang Chen.

   Although he doesn't talk much, it's not easy to make these big guys who don't know his details look good.

   Of course, not everyone is so good at talking, just like how to bet the king, even if the charter king led Yang Chen over, when Yang Chen greeted him, he just snorted.

   In this regard, everyone didn't say much, because everyone could see from He Chaoqiong's reaction why King He Gambling didn't want to see Yang Chen.

   He Chaoqiong was the only one who was stupid, and was happy that Yang Chen had a charter king.

I don't know if the charter king deliberately put the master team behind, anyway, when he introduced the master team, the charter king patted Yang Chen's shoulder, "Hey, boy, this is the master team you are clamoring to see. king."

   As soon as the charter king said these words, several bosses turned their heads involuntarily.

   Who is Shen Porridge? Although he is only a senior working man, the other party is now actually in control of the big cash cow of HSBC.

   All the rich people in Xiangjiang, that one does not need to flatter him, even the world's ship king like the charter king needs funds from the other party to abandon the ship and dock.

   The richest man Li, who has been the richest man in China for many years in later generations, was also brought up by the other party. No matter where he goes, people will pay attention to such a person.

   The other party's words and actions will become the focus of everyone's attention. When others heard that Yang Chen wanted to see the Taipan King, they couldn't help but become curious.

   Without waiting for Yang Chen to speak, he saw that Shen Conge had already taken the lead, stretched out his hand and smiled at Yang Chen: "Mr. Yang, I'm glad you can come to the charity party organized by HSBC."

  'Wow' Shen Porridge said 'Mr. Yang', which instantly shocked the heads of several bigwigs around.

   They never thought that Shen Conge would address Yang Chen like that, and it seemed that he was very respectful to Yang Chen.

  Yes, respect, not value.

   Everyone felt that they were dazzled, looked at each other, and came to the answer.

   This kind of situation only occurs when Shen Porridge treats them.

   After all, they are all wealthy people. Although Shen Conge is the leader of HSBC Bank, it is impossible to sit under the buttocks forever.

   Therefore, when Shen Porridge treats these rich people, they maintain equal respect.

   But now Shen Conge is doing the same to Yang Chen, some of the big bosses are not displeased, but cautious, even surprised.

   We are all smart people, and we know that in this situation, it is impossible for Shen Porridge to have such an attitude towards a junior for no reason.

  Obviously, the younger generation in front of him and others, what else is there that they don't know.

   In the face of Shen Cong's sudden enthusiasm, Yang Chen was also a little surprised, but he concealed it very well.

   generously stretched out his hand and smiled at Shen Conge: "It is an honor for the boy to be invited by the king of the big class."

   Well, as soon as these words came out, the guesses in the hearts of several bigwigs were confirmed once again.

  Yang Chen said Shen Porridge's invitation, not HSBC, although the nature was no different, they were all here to attend the charity party.

  There is a big difference between HSBC's unified invitation and Shen Cong's personal invitation.

   In the world of Hong Kong, there are many people who can be invited by HSBC. As long as you are a customer of HSBC and your capital has reached a certain level, you are eligible to be invited by HSBC.

   But to get a private invitation from Shen Porridge, the whole Xiangjiang turned over and couldn't find a few. The only people who could talk to this Taipan King at any time were people of their level.

  If Yang Chen was just a junior supported by the charter king, it would be impossible for Shen Porridge to give Yang Chen face like this. Since Shen Porridge's attitude has been shown, there must be a reason.

After    and Yang Chen were polite, Shen Conge suddenly remembered that Yang Chen had entrusted the charter king to find him, and also thought of some news recently received by HSBC.

   So, he took out a personal business card and handed it to Yang Chen, and said, "This is my personal business card. If Mr. Yang has anything in the future, you can call me at any time."

After    finished speaking, Shen Conge said again: "Tomorrow I will say hello to the secretary. Mr. Yang can come to HSBC tomorrow morning and come to see me directly."

   Yang Chen didn't rush when he heard what Shen Porridge said. He took the business card and nodded, "Okay, thank you Mr. Shen."
