...
Jiahe, Zou Huaiwen, and He Guanchang tidied their clothes and prepared to set off for 1 Victoria Peak Road.
Before long, the black Rolls-Royce Phantom sped away.
Hung Kam-po, Cheng Lung, Kwan Chi-lam, Lam Ching-ha, and others watched the car drive away, their faces showing envy.
Jackie Chan said, "The world's richest man, Zhao Ye, held a party at 1 Victoria Peak Road, which caused a sensation throughout Hong Kong. All the guests who attended the party were big shots! If we could go there and get to know one or two of these big shots, we would have financial backers to support our future film productions!"
Rosamund Kwan was even more tempted and wanted to go to No. 1 Victoria Peak Road to find a rich husband, but unfortunately she didn't have an invitation and couldn't attend the party.
...
At this time, the 1988 Miss Hong Kong pageant was held at the Hong Kong Coliseum in Hung Hom.
All the contestants were stunningly beautiful, but this year, a universally acknowledged beauty, Li Jiaxin, emerged. Hong Kong reporters raved about her beauty, calling it "earth-shattering." Her appearance was once described as: "If a person's beauty can radiate light, then she is a beauty that can be seen even from the moon."
Writers, when describing beautiful women, tend to exaggerate a bit.
Zhao Ye's arrival made this year's Miss Hong Kong pageant even more intense.
It's worth noting that the Miss Hong Kong pageant always generates a huge amount of buzz, becoming a nationwide topic of discussion.
If Zhao Ye were to take a liking to the "Miss Hong Kong," wouldn't that be a direct path to a wealthy family and a meteoric rise to success?
"Jiaxin, you're sure to be crowned Miss Hong Kong this year. Maybe Zhao Ye will see you and pique his interest! I heard that Zhao Ye is very young and has never had a girlfriend. Whoever marries him will instantly become a phoenix!" a contestant said to Li Jiaxin, her eyes filled with envy.
Newspapers across Hong Kong were praising Li Jiaxin's beauty, and the title of "Miss Hong Kong" seemed to be a foregone conclusion.
Moreover, Ni Zhen, the son of the renowned Hong Kong writer Ni Kuang, is spending a fortune to pursue Li Jiaxin, which is truly enviable.
Li Jiaxin was conflicted at this point. She had a good impression of Ni Zhenting; he was handsome, had a good family background, and was willing to spend money on her.
But he's not as rich as Zhao Ye.
If Zhao Ye takes a liking to her, but then rumors of her affair with Ni Zhen spread, wouldn't her dream of marrying into a wealthy family be shattered?
Li Jiaxin's expression shifted, and she secretly decided to keep her distance from Ni Zhen for now. If Zhao Ye didn't fancy her, then she would accept Ni Zhen's advances...
Zhao Ye probably never expected that his arrival in Hong Kong would cause such a huge reaction.
One after another, Hong Kong actresses wanted to snag this "golden bachelor".
It's no exaggeration to say that he was even more favored by the "demons" than Tang Sanzang.
(Comrades, the protagonist isn't going to be involved with actresses anymore, he should focus on developing technology.)
...
That night, under the bright stars, No. 1 Victoria Peak Road was bustling with activity.
Zhao Ye, holding a glass of red wine, moved among the guests, greeting Shen Bi, Huo Yingdong, Li Jiacheng, Bao Yugang, Zheng Yutong, and others.
Wherever Zhao Ye went, he was surrounded by admirers.
“Mr. Zhao, if your company needs investment in the future, just let me know, and HSBC will definitely provide full support!” Shen Bi said.
"Thank you, teacher!"
"Mr. Zhao, would you be interested in listing your company in Hong Kong? We will all do our best to help you and ensure your company's successful listing!" Guo Desheng said with a smile as he walked over.
"Haha, none of Wujiang's companies have any plans to go public yet. If we do, we'll have to trouble you all!" Zhao Ye said with a laugh, politely declining.
Going public? You're kidding. I have a magic touch; every company is making a killing, and I even profited handsomely during the stock market crash. Why would I need to go public and raise funds?
Of course, if they really go public, it's just to fleece investors. When the internet takes off, they'll definitely create more internet companies and go public. It's not human if they don't go public.
Before long, several groups of people came and went around Zhao Ye, just as the saying goes, "All the world's hustle and bustle is for profit."
Zhao Ye's legendary wealth and undefeated aura made him a highly sought-after figure, with everyone wanting to cooperate with him, especially to invest in some of the subsidiaries under the Wujiang Group.
However, Wujiang Group is not short of money and does not need investment. Furthermore, bringing in these investors wouldn't be of much help to the company; do these Hong Kong tycoons have the ability to influence US government decisions?
In the future, perhaps one of Wujiang Group's subsidiaries could introduce Wall Street capital to allow Wujiang's products to enter the US and even global markets, but it is definitely not Hong Kong capital.
Zhao Ye really doesn't know what use it is to bring in Hong Kong capital.
But there's absolutely no problem with cooperating with Hong Kong capital.
These Hong Kong tycoons are involved in real estate, hotels, retail, oil and gas, electricity, telecommunications, ports, construction, and many other sectors. They can achieve in-depth cooperation with Wujiang Group in many areas and realize a win-win situation.
In the future, Hong Kong capital will also be a major force in entering the mainland market.
It's unrealistic for Zhao Ye to handle all the business himself.
The party ended around 9:30 p.m.
Zhao Ye's party wasn't anything particularly significant; it was simply a way to build relationships with Hong Kong's upper echelons and strengthen cooperation, which would help Wujiang's business develop rapidly in Hong Kong.
Next, Chiu Te-ken will be embroiled in a accounting scandal, which will be Wu-jiang's opportunity to take over ATV.
With the support of the television station, entering the media industry was a natural progression.
