The birth of the Hong Kong Island family
Chapter 144 [What happened in London]
weekend.
"Ha ha"
In the living room on the third floor, Lin Zhichao's hearty laughter came, which soon attracted Tang Caiyun and Xu Caiying.
"What's so happy about it?" Xu Caiying held Lin Zhichao's arm, her voice full of attachment.
On the other side, Tang Caiyun, who had just given birth for ten days, was also sitting next to Lin Zhichao. Now she usually lives on the second floor, which is convenient for taking care of the children, including Wu Wenying; it is obviously unrealistic to entrust the two too young children to the nanny.
So now there are two nannies living on the second floor to assist Wu Wenying and Tang Caiyun in taking care of the children. As for Lin Zhichao, he has always been used to being a master. When the children like it, he just teases them, and most of them are doing their own things.
When Lin Zhichao saw that the two women were attracted, he immediately pointed to a piece of news and said: "One of the three gangster leaders in Shanghaitan - Huang Huangrong, sweeps the streets. This news is probably going to cause a sensation all over the world!"
In the picture, Huang Huangrong, who is in his 80s, is wearing a long gown, with a bald head, holding a big broom with both hands, and an empty garbage truck behind him, looking downcast.
No one would have thought that this was the man who once dominated Shanghaitan and made people fearful; you know, even the head of the Jiang family had worshiped Huang Jinrong as his teacher.
Lin Zhichao will not judge a historical figure, but simply thinks that Huang Jinrong is not as smart as Du Yuesheng. It can be said that among the three gangster leaders, only Du Yuesheng is really smart. He did not imitate Zhang Xiaolin and become a traitor. He did not stay in Shanghai or go to Taiwan. He did not get involved in right and wrong when he came to Hong Kong.
Du Yuesheng's children are also affected by his decision. At least 8 sons and 3 daughters are doing well.
Tang Caiyun watched the news and said, "You're quite old, and you won't live for a few years!"
Indeed, Huang Jinrong didn't leave the Shanghai stock market just because he was old and didn't want to live in a foreign land, and he didn't have any biological children.
Probably these are the reasons!
Lin Zhichao then said: "It's all just showmanship. Not many people have complained about Huang Jinrong's crimes recently. The matter has been very big. Saying not to kill Huang Jinrong is not enough to calm the public's anger. So this matter is to calm the people who were harmed by him back then." mood, and through this kind of publicity, it can also reform and deter some criminals. If it is really a disgrace, I don't think it is, it is more of a public relations, Huang Huangrong at least saved his life."
After finishing speaking, he added: "Exercise, sweeping the floor is also exercise!"
Tang Caiyun was very smart and was quickly convinced by Lin Zhichao.
At this time, Xu Caiying said: "I wonder how our cousins are doing?"
Lin Zhichao said meaningfully: "Exercise!"
Xu Caiying asked curiously: "What sport?"
Lin Zhichao hooked the beauty's chin and whispered in her ear: "If I were the daughter of an entrepreneur like you."
"I do not want!"
Kennedy 18.
After Du Yuesheng saw Huang Jinrong in the newspaper, he couldn't help laughing: "If you had listened to me, why would you have ended up like this!"
Then I felt a little lonely again, and I felt like I was in a desperate situation. He slept in the apartment all day long, but the money he carried was consumed very quickly, which made him, who was once extremely wealthy, feel that his later life was quite bleak.
Fortunately, he understood the truth that he could not go to both sides. If he went, he would be participating in ZZ, which would definitely make it even more miserable.
Lin Zhichao took Xu Caiying on a flight to London. This trip to London was not only for vacation with Xu Caiying, but also to inspect the market.
In 1951, it was not only the centenary of the first World Expo, but also the period when London was hoping to completely escape the trauma of the war after World War II. Therefore, the idea of "British Festival" came into being. There is an exhibition called "Britain Can Make It" at the Victoria and Albert Museum. The exhibition's main purpose is to "arouse manufacturers' interest in design and to arouse public interest in design" and to showcase British industrial products to foreign traders. It aims to prove to the world that "the intelligence that has long made Britain the world's industrial leader" , talent and taste have not deserted England".
The exhibition covers a wide range of products, including almost all categories of British manufacturing. In addition to various consumer goods for home and gardening, there are also jewelry, fashion, personal decorations, clothing fabrics, toys, and interior decoration. , packaging, home entertainment, office and sports facilities, and nursery furniture and facilities.
Lin Zhichao, who is committed to industry, would not miss such a grand event.
He not only went to inspect it himself, but also asked his subordinates to take turns to inspect it, broaden their horizons, and make plans for future development.
On the Imperial Airlines flight, Xu Caiying was extremely excited. This was her first time going abroad, let alone going on vacation with Lin Zhichao.
Seeing Xu Caiying's appearance, Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "Ma'am, we need to go through a three-day long-distance flight, so you don't need to be so excited. I'm afraid that when you reach the sky above London, you have no energy. You just want to find a hotel to lie down."
Xu Caiying, on the other hand, was like an elf, and said lively: "I don't believe it! Besides, as long as I'm with you, I can fly for a month without any problems." After finishing speaking, she tightly held Lin Zhichao's arm.
Lin Zhichao immediately felt very happy. The charming man really made people wet.
after one day.
"Husband, how long does it take for this flight to arrive in London? It's so painful to sit on the PG!"
"I'll rub it for you!"
"I hate it!"
Sure enough, it was Xu Caiying, and she was already protesting after only one day. She was like a lark, moving all the time, making it difficult to sit still.
This was good, as it added a lot of fun to Lin Zhichao's boring voyage.
Later, Lin Zhichao said: "The United Kingdom is testing a civilian jet aircraft - the Comet aircraft. Once the civilian jet aircraft becomes a reality, the flights from Europe to Hong Kong may be shortened by half."
Xu Caiying immediately said: "This invention is great. It only takes a day and a half to go to Europe, and it will take about the same time to go to the United States?"
Lin Zhichao nodded. He still liked to show off his 'eruditeness' in front of women.
"It's almost the same. It will take up to two days to complete the longest voyage in the world, or even one day. It will be more convenient for us to travel abroad."
Xu Caiying's beautiful eyes are blooming with radiance. Her dream is to go to many places, travel with the man she loves, and see the outside world.
"I just don't know if I will be old that day!" Xu Caiying suddenly sighed.
Lin Zhichao tapped Xu Caiying's nose and said with a smile: "You are less than nineteen years old, how could you say such a thing! Moreover, in ten years at the latest, you can achieve your goals - go skiing in Switzerland and go to the United States. Have fun at the beach, live in a castle in England, go to Paris and Italy.”
Each travel list made Xu Caiying get closer and closer, and finally she completely fell into his arms, as if she was melting.
Located on the south bank of the Thames in London's Lambeth district, it was originally a symbol of the Victorian era - lined with industrial buildings and crisscrossed by railways. However, during this period, it became the main exhibition base of this event. The theme is "British contribution to the past, present and future of human civilization in art, science, technology and industrial design", including architecture, industry, There are six major parts including science, travel and two other entertainment topics.
Lin Zhichao took Xu Caiying to an exhibition hall and immediately felt the excitement of the exhibition. According to Willis, many residents in London have lent their houses to tourists. You can imagine how successful the British held this time.
In fact, this is not an international registered exhibition, but its influence is no less than that of a worldwide exhibition.
"What does this machine do?" Xu Caiying asked Lin Zhichao in a low voice.
She was worried that because of her lack of understanding, she would come across as a country bumpkin.
Lin Zhichao smiled and came to the machine, took out a coin and threw it into a hole. Then an empty cup was transported to the bottom of the beverage machine, and the cup was automatically filled with beverage.
Picking up the cup, Lin Zhichao took a sip and handed it to Xu Caiying.
Xu Caiying felt incredible at this scene and took a sip of the drink.
"It's Coke!"
Lin Zhichao smiled.
Later, Lin Zhichao chatted with the staff, learned about some in-depth questions, and kept them in mind. Of course, although the automatic drink machine has been invented in the UK, it seems that the real driver of its development was Japan in the late 1950s.
Next, Lin Zhichao visited many exhibition halls. One day was definitely not enough. Lin Zhichao even felt that it was his own eye-opening experience. Because he never imagined that Britain or Europe and the United States in the 1950s were already so developed.
He carefully wrote down some useful information, recorded it when he returned home, took pictures on the spot with a camera, and went back to organize the information.
When he came to a toy exhibition stand, Lin Zhichao was immediately attracted by a toy. It was a small car, but he had power.
Turn the handle on the side, then place the car on the display cabinet and start running immediately.
This was a very common toy in later generations, developed using clockwork and gears, but it made Lin Zhichao's eyes shine.
"Sir, where are you friends from?" A British man who looked like a manager or boss greeted Lin Zhichao.
Although there were many friends on the platform, he caught Lin Zhichao's eye and walked up to chat with him.
"Coming from Hong Kong!"
"It turns out to be a friend from Hong Kong, please feel free to visit!"
Lin Zhichao took the initiative to chat: "My name is Lin, did you know you belong to this toy brand?"
The British man immediately stopped, stretched out his hand and said, "My name is William, I am the owner of this toy brand, and I happen to be here today."
Later, Lin Zhichao asked William about the scale of his toy brand. Unexpectedly, this brand was quite big, with business all over Europe.
"Mr. William, suppose I can produce such a clockwork and gear toy one day, would you like to find me a OEM?"
William was stunned, feeling that this young man was so careful.
He immediately said: "We can produce it ourselves! Unless you have a reason to convince me."
Lin Zhichao smiled and said: "Of course it's the cost."
Undoubtedly, this is also the most tempting part. As a boss, who doesn’t want to control costs.
Sure enough, William handed Lin Zhichao a business card and said: "Lin, if you can make products of the same quality one day, you can come to me. You can take a few samples today, and I hope you can succeed."
In this way, Lin Zhichao got several toys for free.
In fact, Lin Zhichao is familiar with toys with springs and gears. He uses the power of the steel coil to rotate the gears and drive the toys forward.
But the problem now is that Hong Kong cannot import materials and new equipment, so if you want to make OEM toys or develop your own brand, you have to wait until the second half of 1953.
But we can carry out technical research and development in these two years. When the time is right, it can be put into production soon.
Next, Lin Zhichao also tried to get some push toys and planned to go back and refer to them slowly. One characteristic of these toys is that they are made of plastic.
Therefore, Yangtze Plastics derived Yangtze Toys, and there was a preliminary plan.
There were also some dolls, and Lin Zhichao discovered that they were all made of soft plastic, and these dolls were replicas of what adults would consider 'rag dolls', images of children.
This gave Lin Zhichao a plan, which was to go back and ask the Yangtze Plastic Factory to develop plastic dolls first, using two materials-soft plastic and hard plastic. When the time comes, set up a studio in Europe and the United States or find someone to cooperate to develop a kind of "character image" in the eyes of children, that is, Barbie and Lily dolls.
a week later.
In the hotel, Lin Zhichao and Xu Caiying were having dinner.
"Caiying, I'm going to the Federal Republic of Germany the day after tomorrow, and you stay in London."
Xu Caiying was stunned. She had been having a lot of fun recently. Although her husband spent four days visiting exhibitions, it was still a kind of entertainment for her, which opened her eyes; he accompanied her to many places for three more days. At the scenic spot, the two even walked together romantically.
Now, her husband wanted to leave her and go to the Federal Republic of Germany, so she immediately said coquettishly: "I have never been to the Federal Republic of Germany. You took your sister there, so I want to go too!"
Lin Zhichao said calmly: "Silly girl, go back and ask your sister what kind of chaos there is. Last time your sister and I went, I didn't trust her to leave her in the hotel, but this time I'm working, I'm worried that taking you will give others a bad impression. Listen, I have a female employee from a friend's company here. She will be your tour guide and driver. You can also consider staying in a hotel with Qin Li, or going shopping. .”
He still brought two bodyguards with him when he went out this time, one male and one female, and they happened to be reserved for Xu Caiying.
As for whether he will go to Bourne Machinery, it is obviously impossible. Lin Zhichao is going on a secret date, after all, he finally came to London.
"Okay! Then I'll go shopping in downtown London and rest in the hotel. Thinking about the three-day flight, I just happened to catch up on extra sleep in the hotel!"
"Yeah. Did you have fun this time?"
When Xu Caiying heard Lin Zhichao's question, she immediately nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and said happily: "I'm so happy! When will the next time be?"
“I’ll take you with me to America next year!”
"yeah!"
Traveling is not only for relaxation, but also for researching local information and even understanding the economic trends of the whole world.
Back in the hotel room, Lin Zhichao found out the magic weapon - nylon stockings, and threw them to Xu Caiying.
Every time he comes to Europe, Lin Zhichao will always find a way to buy some nylon stockings and sexy underwear, and take them back to Hong Kong as a boudoir pleasure.
"You haven't digested the food in your stomach, and you want to do something bad?" Xu Caiying gave Lin Zhichao a reproachful expression. She knew how energetic her man was, and she also lamented that if Lin Zhichao had not had two wives, if he had only one, she would have cost her life.
"Exercise just promotes digestion! Besides, I will give you time to digest." Lin Zhichao said enthusiastically.
Xu Caiying is undoubtedly full of all the fantasies that men have about actresses, with an angel-like face, a devil-like figure, an elf-like spirituality, and a human-like behavior.
"I hate it! Watch out, my husband!" Xu Caiying took the silk stockings and planned to put them on while enchanting Lin Zhichao.
Lin Zhichao was so well-informed that he immediately shouted: "No, no, that's not how stockings are worn. They have to be rolled up like this, and then your legs have to be crossed, and your eyes have to bite your lips."
Xu Caiying was stunned, how could this man understand women better than women?
Next, Lin Zhichao gave instructions for 10 minutes on just the action of putting on stockings.
Xu Caiying could only cooperate obediently.
Lin Zhichao took the opportunity to take a few photos. Of course, these photos were not revealing in any way, because Xu Caiying was wearing a dress, and her behavior was at best a bit sexy.
"pretty!"
"Brother Zhichao, you're not going to develop these photos, are you?" Xu Caiying suddenly said shyly.
Lin Zhichao put down the camera and said: "I'm not mentally ill! Keep the papers and hand them in, put them away when you go home, and wait two years to buy the equipment to wash them out."
"That's good! But you're not allowed to take random pictures!" Xu Caiying said coquettishly.
She knows that Lin Zhichao likes to take pictures, especially the streets and alleys of Hong Kong. In his words, these will be history in the future.
"Do not worry!"
After putting down the camera, Lin Zhichao squatted in front of Xu Caiying and raised one of his beautiful black legs, as if appreciating a work of art. Although the nylon stockings of this era were not as thin and transparent as those of later generations, they were not much different.
The important thing is to be flexible!
Lin Zhichao finally broke out.
On the third day, the woman in Lin Zhichao's arms had turned into Audrey Hepburn.
"My career has changed a lot this year. I have appeared in three movies. Are you happy for me?" Hepburn's palm drew circles on Lin Zhichao's chest.
She only felt that this body contained incredible energy. She really didn't know why an Asian had such a strong body.
"Of course! I think you will become a famous Hollywood movie star within three years, and even stand on the Oscar-winning actress stage."
"Hehe, you just like to trick people. Tell me, have you ever cheated on other girls?" Audrey Hepburn suddenly said.
"Of course not. How can we settle down if our career is not successful!"
Audrey blinked her big black eyes and believed Lin Zhichao's words for the time being. In fact, she already had suspicions, but she did not choose to ask someone to inquire about Lin Zhichao's affairs in Hong Kong.
She is now focusing on her career, and it is enough to take comfort from time to time. In fact, she had been deceived by Lin Zhichao, and she only thought that she might become a Hollywood actor.
