We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong
#422 - Guan Jiahui's tangle
Su Cheng, having put on his clothes, asked Guan Jiahui, "Did you have breakfast before coming over?"
At this moment, Guan Jiahui sat on the bed with a flushed face, looking satisfied.
"I didn't eat anything. I got up and came straight over. Brother Su Cheng, it's already eleven o'clock, and you're only asking now," Guan Jiahui said speechlessly.
"Wasn't it because when you came over, you looked so eager?" Su Cheng laughed.
Guan Jiahui had arrived at nine o'clock in the morning.
However, her tone didn't have a hint of blame.
"There are some packaged snacks on the table in the living room. Eat some to tide you over. I'll have the kitchen prepare a good meal for you," Su Cheng said with a smile.
"Okay."
Su Cheng walked out of the bedroom with a refreshed look and went to the study, where he made a phone call.
These past few days, Ajiao and Amei had taken a vacation back to the Beautiful Country, and Zhong Chuhong was also unavailable, so Su Cheng had been holding back for several days.
Although he could find any kind of woman he wanted, if Su Cheng opened his mouth, the women who wanted to get into his bed could probably line up from Barker Road to the Kowloon Peninsula.
Young, rich, and handsome, what woman wouldn't like that?
But Su Cheng wasn't a casual person. He felt that he was quite tasteful.
"Beep beep beep ~" After a series of busy tones, the call finally connected.
"Boss, what do you need me for?" Zhang Qizheng asked directly.
"Uncle Zhang, are you free right now?" Su Cheng asked.
"I'm free," Zhang Qizheng replied simply.
"Then come to my villa. I have important things to arrange for you to do, and we can have lunch here," Su Cheng said.
"Okay, boss, I'll be there in half an hour," Zhang Qizheng replied.
After hanging up the phone, Su Cheng instructed the kitchen to prepare a big meal for lunch.
The reason he called Zhang Qizheng over was naturally to discuss the matter of secretly acquiring shares of HSBC Bank.
Today, Su Cheng didn't plan to go out, so he simply had Zhang Qizheng come over.
Moreover, discussing things in his reception room in the villa could ensure sufficient confidentiality.
He had planned to acquire HSBC Bank shares for the long term, so the longer he could keep it a secret, the better.
Leaving the living room, Guan Jiahui was sitting on the sofa eating a piece of rice cake.
Su Cheng walked over, sat down, and picked up Guan Jiahui, placing her on his lap.
Guan Jiahui's genes were very good. Although she was only 16 years old, she was already over 1.6 meters tall.
However, because she maintained her figure very well, appearing neither fat nor thin, her figure was very perfect.
"Brother Su Cheng, I want to ask you something," Guan Jiahui said, sitting on Su Cheng's lap.
"What is it? Don't be so polite with me," Su Cheng said with a smile.
"This month, I received over 60,000 in royalties again. I'm struggling with whether to tell my father. I'm a little scared to have so much money. What do you think I should do?" Guan Jiahui said hesitantly.
A high school girl earning over 60,000 a month was not unique in all of Hong Kong, but at least few could do it.
In this era, 60,000 Hong Kong dollars was a lot of money, and she didn't just have 60,000 in royalties this month. She had the same amount last month as well.
This meant that she already had over 120,000 Hong Kong dollars in these two months.
This amount of money was enough to buy a house in Hong Kong in this era.
Moreover, if she continued to update her manga, her monthly royalties would only increase in the future.
The reason why Guan Jiahui had so many royalties in a month was not only because "Chibi Maruko-chan" sold well, but more importantly, Xiaoyi Media Company had signed a contract with her that offered the best benefits.
Manga artists generally receive royalties based on the number of chapters, such as how much each chapter costs, which is negotiated when signing the contract.
Ordinary manga artists may only receive a few hundred dollars per chapter.
Guan Jiahui not only had a fixed royalty per episode, but this royalty itself was also very high in the industry, and there were also additional commissions if sales were good.
That's why Guan Jiahui's income was so high.
In terms of income, Guan Jiahui could be considered one of the top people in the Hong Kong manga industry.
After all, she was still a high school student and didn't have much social experience. She had always relied on her father to give her pocket money, so she was a little hesitant. She was still studying and didn't need so much money. Should she tell Guan Shan about this?
In addition, Guan Shan had always been afraid that she would affect her studies and didn't allow her to waste time on drawing, so another reason Guan Jiahui had was that she wanted to reveal to Guan Shan that she could earn so much money so that Guan Shan would no longer prevent her from drawing.
Girls always like to show off in front of their parents and let them know how excellent they are.
Guan Jiahui could be considered a very filial girl.
In another world, because her father, Guan Shan, failed in his investments and owed a lot of money, and Guan Shan ran away to hide, the pressure of the whole family was handed over to the 18-year-old Guan Jiahui.
Because of this, Guan Jiahui later used any means to earn money, just to make her family live a good life.
There was no way, her father's investment failure made her deeply understand the importance of money.
In this world, she hadn't experienced this period, and her father, Guan Shan, still had a lot of capital and gave her thousands of pocket money every month, so she didn't value money so much now.
"Baby, I think you don't need to think too much about this. Your father doesn't lack money now. You might as well secretly save this money as insurance. Maybe one day when the family needs money, your money can play a key role!" Su Cheng said with a smile.
"But then I can't draw openly. These days, whenever my father is at home, I secretly lock the door of my room and draw by myself in the room. If he knocks on the door and asks what I'm doing inside, I always say I'm studying. I'm afraid that one day he will find out and I'll get scolded again," Guan Jiahui said hesitantly.
"Didn't you say he's rarely at home?" Su Cheng smiled.
"Yes, he only lives at home for a few days a month at most. Even when he's in Hong Kong, I don't know where he goes to fool around," Guan Jiahui said helplessly.
"Then that's it? He's not often at home, and you even lock the door when you draw at home. How would he find out!" Su Cheng laughed.
"That's true, then I'll secretly save the money," Guan Jiahui nodded, finally no longer troubled.
