Rebirth of India: Superior
Text Chapter 387: Peak of the Pacific
If Shakru knew what Chen Minzhi was thinking at this moment, he would definitely vomit blood in depression, because this time he really had no idea. First, as he said to Beinon just now, he felt that he should calm down. The second is that he hopes that the actress he liked very much in his previous life will develop better. Third, this matter was a piece of cake for him. Even without this matter, he would still have to meet and have tea with Wei Jiahui and a few other friends when he arrived in Hong Kong, so it didn't matter if he brought someone along with him.
So after chatting for a while, in Chen Minzhi's uneasy mood, Shaklu said goodbye to everyone and returned to the hotel, with no intention of taking her away. At this time, Chen Minzhi became a little anxious and hurriedly followed Fang Haining said hello and quickly caught up with her. Fortunately, she was tall and had long legs, so she caught up with her within a few steps.
When Shaklu saw Chen Minzhi chasing after him, he asked curiously: "Miss Chen, what's the matter with you?"
"I, I saw you coming out alone, Mr. Pandit, and I was afraid that you were not familiar with the roads in Hong Kong, so I planned to give you a ride." Chen Min made up an excuse out of desperation.
Shakru was in a hurry to leave just now because he didn't want to be a light bulb for Beinon. He really didn't think about the problem with the car for a moment. You know that he hasn't driven a taxi for many years. It was a good thing to have someone to give him to him, so he smiled and said: " Then I’ll trouble Miss Chen.”
I can't say whether it was luck or misfortune. There was a traffic jam on the way back, and Chen Minzhi had to take a detour. Not long after driving, Shaklu suddenly pointed to a brightly lit place not far away and asked: "Ms. Chen, that's the Taiping Mountain." Bar?"
Chen Minzhi nodded and said, "Yes, that's Taiping Mountain."
Along the way, Shaklu had seen Chen Minzhi hesitate to speak, so he said: "Well, I have always heard of the famous night view on the Peak. How about Miss Chen take me to see it?"
After a while, the two of them arrived at the Peak of Victoria Peak and looked side by side. They saw a sea of lights at their feet: Central at the foot of the mountain, Kowloon and Victoria Harbor in the distance. Hong Kong's prosperous city was in full view, with brightly lit skyscrapers standing in the sky. Hong Kong Island, surrounded by the sea, forms a sea of lights. Only Victoria Harbor is black, but from time to time brightly lit cruise ships pass by, like shooting stars across the dark sky. Brilliant and luxurious, spectacular and moving, as magnificent as the brightest pearl in the sea.
Perhaps this peaceful and beautiful scenery soothed Chen Minzhi's uneasy mood, and she sighed very relaxedly: "Mr. Pandit, you know, because of my poor family background, I started doing catwalk shows at the age of 15 to support my family. However, I have always had a dream of becoming a star in my heart, but now more than ten years have passed, and I don’t know if I should continue to pursue this dream, or if it makes sense to put in all this effort.”
Shakru pondered for a moment, and then said: "I remember there is a saying in China, if a person has no dreams, what is the difference from a salted fish? Although I have not read your works, I feel that Ms. Chen, you should be very You have acting talent, so don’t give up easily, at least if there is a suitable opportunity with Director Wei Jiahui tomorrow, don’t give up.”
Hearing what Shaklu said, Chen Minzhi knew that Shaklu's call just now was not to fool her casually, and had no other intentions. However, the more this happened, the more uneasy she felt, so she said a little shyly: "This matter Thank you very much Mr. Pandit, but I really don’t know how to repay you.”
"If you really want to repay me, Ms. Chen, then accompany me to the Jockey Club tomorrow." Because the Jockey Club had made an itinerary with Beinong right after we got off the plane, and the dinner with Wei Jiahui was in the evening.
The next morning, Shakru and Chen Minzhi had breakfast at the spnb1nss restaurant in the hotel. This restaurant was opened by a famous French chef. All seats can enjoy the dazzling sea view of Victoria Harbor. Leather tabletops, volcanic stone and wood-decorated bars, French cutlery, exclusively designed condiments, and 55 handmade mercury glass spoons decorate the ceiling, showing luxury everywhere. The bright floor-to-ceiling glass windows offer a panoramic view of Victoria Harbor, and the ships passing through the harbor seem to be within reach.
At this time, Beinon hurried over, first greeted Chen Minzhi with an ambiguous face, and then said to Shaklu: "Let's go, I will take you to the Pisces Hippo Club to open your eyes. Don't worry, the people here are The Jockey Club will definitely open your eyes.”
The Hong Kong Jockey Club was founded in 1884 by a group of local people who were keen on horse racing. It has a history of 122 years. With the development of club services and membership traditions, the Hong Kong Jockey Club has now become the largest in Asia. , one of the most exclusive private clubs. Among the nearly 24 members of the Jockey Club, there are business leaders such as Li Ka-shing and Guo Bingxiang, as well as senior government officials such as Hong Kong Special Representative Li Guoneng and Legislative Chairman Fan Xuli, as well as lawyers, university presidents, doctors and other elites from all walks of life. If they have anything in common, it's not wealth.
Members of the Hong Kong Jockey Club are divided into full-fee members, horse racing members and corporate members. Among the full-fee members, there are 2 selected members. Only they are qualified to recommend new members to the Jockey Club. The Jockey Club has strict standards for accepting members. It first needs to be recommended by two selection members. Then the Jockey Club will investigate the candidate's background and entrust a bank to investigate his financial ability. In addition, more importantly, the candidate must make contributions to Hong Kong society. Contribute and gain a certain social status in this way. This shows how difficult it would be for Beynon to get into this horse.
The three main venues for the club's member activities are the three major clubs: Beas River, Shatin and Happy Valley. The clubs in Happy Valley and Shatin are located in Hong Kong Island and the New Territories respectively, with convenient transportation. In particular, the Happy Valley club was filled from a swamp. The racecourse was built before the city was built. Therefore, the future urban development was carried out around the racecourse. Today, the area around the racecourse has become one of the main commercial areas in Hong Kong. The Beas River club located in the countryside is the only club of the Jockey Club with stables and racecourses. Members usually bring their families here to spend the weekend with their beloved horses.
Since only members can enter the club, it maintains privacy and dignity. In the club, each member can bring up to two non-members to enter, and reservations must be made. Many members bring their wives and children to the club to rest, and these children gradually become members when they grow up. Inherited from generation to generation. To be continued.
