Villa number three in Repulse Bay?
Hearing this, Lin Huowang was shocked again.
After all, although he was wealthy in his previous life, if he really wanted to buy a villa in the Repulse Bay luxury residential area of Hong Kong Island, the best he could buy would be one ranked dozens or less.
This would cost at least several hundred million Hong Kong dollars. Those who live in the Repulse Bay luxury residential area are either rich or noble, or both rich and noble.
Take the Repulse Bay Mansion No. 1 for example. It was purchased by gambling king Stanley Ho in 1966 for HK$700,000.
By 2020, the value of this luxury villa No. 1 has exceeded 3 billion Hong Kong dollars, an appreciation of 4,000 times.
And now, Keiko Kobayashi actually spent 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars to help him buy the luxury villa No. 3 in Repulse Bay.
In fact, in an invisible way, he helped Lin Huowang fulfill a wish that he had not fulfilled in his previous life.
However, what made Lin Huowang feel even more shocked was what Gao Qiaohao said: Kobayashi Keiko threatened to give Lin Huowang all the best.
The luxury houses and luxury cars can be said to be the best in Hong Kong Island.
If there is something missing, it is beauty.
Sitting in the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow, Lin Huowang glanced at the bustling street scenes of Hong Kong Island outside the window, but he did not think it was anything great.
After all, by 2025, any second- or third-tier small city in the mainland will be able to completely beat Hong Kong Island in terms of urban construction and infrastructure.
We are indeed lagging behind, but we will learn from our mistakes and catch up!
The slogan of catching up with Britain and surpassing the United States is not just talk, but is implemented in every five-year plan.
Along the way, Lin Huowang sat in the car and felt an unprecedented sense of stability.
Almost all the cars we met on the road consciously gave way to the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow.
Even Lin Huowang could see many passengers on the bus, with envy on their faces, making all kinds of exclamations towards the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow.
"Mr. Kobayashi, this Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow is limited to no more than 100 cars worldwide, and there may be no more than 5 in Hong Kong Island.
Therefore, it is very recognizable. As long as you ride this car, no matter whether you are black or white, no one in Hong Kong will dare to bother you. "
Although Gao Qiaohao has not been in Hong Kong Island for long, he is quite familiar with the ecology and conditions of Hong Kong Island.
Not to mention, as the general manager of the popular magazine "Dragon JUMP" in Hong Kong Island, he has already gained a certain status and voice in the media industry in Hong Kong Island.
"Yeah! It's good, but it's a little too high-profile."
Lin Huowang also likes Rolls-Royce, but if he rides in this car every time he goes out on a daily basis, it would be a bit too pretentious and ostentatious.
Moreover, Lin Huowang generally doesn't like to act in such a high-profile manner, as it would attract too much attention.
Gao Qiaohao also listened carefully to Lin Huowang's needs, and then said with a smile: "Mr. Xiaolin, don't worry about this. Miss Keiko has already thought about it. The Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow is only used as a symbol of status in formal occasions and for some airport pick-up needs.
For daily use, Miss Huizi has prepared a Volvo 262C for you. It is the latest model launched by Volvo this year. It is a luxury four-seater two-door coupe. It made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show this year and has attracted great attention and popularity in the market.
Ms. Huizi said that the safety of this car is also very outstanding and suitable for your daily self-driving car. "
"Volvo? Oh...I know, it's Volvo!"
After listening to Gao Qiaohao's introduction for a long time, Lin Huowang finally realized that the Volvo that people in Hong Kong are calling for is the Volvo that "I'd rather die in my car than in any other place".
Because the English pronunciation of Volvo is very similar to the Cantonese word "rich", the people of Hong Kong Island at that time were accustomed to calling Volvo cars "rich".
However, even though this is a relatively low-key daily car that Keiko Kobayashi prepared for Lin Huowang, the price of this Volvo 262C is more than 200,000 Hong Kong dollars. It is definitely a luxury car and is not something that the average working class in Hong Kong Island can afford.
When the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow drove into the Repulse Bay villa luxury residential area, Lin Huowang truly felt the prosperity and wealth of Hong Kong Island at that time.
There are towering villas, clear sea water and clean beaches, servants mowing the lawns in every villa, and luxury cars parked in front of the villas.
All these demonstrate that Hong Kong Island, the Pearl of the Orient, is home to the most elite and wealthy class.
Of course, when the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow drove past the doors of these villas, it still attracted a lot of attention.
If ordinary people see it, they will just see it as something novel and exciting. They will know that it is a luxury car and that some rich boss is traveling again.
However, there are no unknown people living in Repulse Bay.
They knew exactly what the appearance of an unfamiliar Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow luxury car in Repulse Bay meant.
"Have you ever seen this Rolls-Royce? The license plate is hk888. Who is this boss?"
"It's driving forward. It should be one of the top ten villas. Could it be the new luxury car purchased by the gambling king?"
"Eh? Come to think of it, I seem to have heard a few days ago that Villa No. 3 was sold. It seems to have been bought by a Japanese. Could there be a Japanese sitting in this car?"
"There is indeed such a rumor. I have heard about it as well. Villa No. 3 was sold from the Li family to a Japanese for HK$1.5 million. I am still trying to find out who the other party is. His identity is a bit mysterious."
…
In many courtyards of Repulse Bay, many young men from wealthy families, especially the younger generation, began to talk about the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow that passed by with great relish.
