What does your father do?
"This isn't something you should ask. Knowing it won't be good for you. I'm here for two reasons: first, to have some fun, and second, to see what finance is all about, and maybe even try my hand at it with some money," Lu Feng said to the two of them.
"When you say 'spend some money,' how much are you planning to spend? A financial company needs a lot of start-up capital."
"Two or three billion, I guess. Actually, money is just a number to me. I was photographed by paparazzi yesterday, and they came up to me asking where I came from, what I do, and how much money I have. I thought about it for a moment and said 10 billion. It was just a number I said off the cuff. I know there are a lot of rich people here, so I wanted to keep a low profile," Lu Feng said seriously.
Is claiming a net worth of billions a way to keep a low profile?
The two reporters were both veteran journalists, having interviewed many wealthy people and those who liked to show off, but none of them were as pretentious as Lu Feng.
"Didn't you expect things to explode the next day?"
"No, I think it's only 10 billion. Why make such a fuss about it? It's nothing, right?"
"Since 10 billion isn't much for you, investing 200 or 300 million in finance is a piece of cake for you," the reporter asked.
"I can't say it's nothing, how should I put it?" Lu Feng scratched his head, looking a bit shy, and said, "Saying that seems too arrogant. I prefer to keep a low profile. It's just a small token! A small token, I guess!"
The two reporters looked embarrassed, exchanged a glance, and seemed... even more arrogant.
"The Lion Hill villa area is all for rent, why not just buy it?" The reporter looked around and said, "You claim to be so rich, but I haven't seen any big-money purchases..."
"Stop, stop, stop!" Lu Feng raised his hand to stop her from speaking and said, "From your question, I can tell that you are really poor. You want me to buy this villa. Actually, I don't have much money to buy it. The problem is, after buying it, I might live in it a few times and then forget about it."
"Forgot? What do you mean?"
“I own too many properties around the world. There are some that I can’t even remember. They may never be mine and will be abandoned somewhere in the world. This situation may not be common for someone like you who only owns a few properties. The problem is, this is something that really bothers me.”
Lu Feng sighed with worry, looking quite helpless.
The female reporter's forehead began to sweat. Her question was meant to make Lu Feng reveal that he wasn't the richest man in the country. After all, Lu Feng was someone you could find out about in Shenzhen. Every reporter has a few friends.
I didn't expect that such a question would still allow the other party to show off their sense of superiority.
"What do you think are the differences between Hong Kong and the mainland?" The other person looked at Lu Feng with a hint of expectation in their eyes. What they wanted to hear was for Lu Feng to praise this place and make them feel superior.
“I think this is a very good place, the location is excellent, but the people here are just average, and the development is just average,” Lu Feng said bluntly.
"So-so? Please! This is one of the Four Asian Tigers."
"Two of the Four Little Dragons are just the claws of a giant dragon. Without the mainland, these two little dragons are just worms. With such good conditions, they have only achieved the current level of modernization. To be honest, it is just normal development, and no strongmen have emerged."
Lu Feng pondered for a moment, then said, "The differences between the two sides are still quite obvious. Some places on the mainland are still very poor, while this place is very developed. Other than that, there's not much difference. We all share the same ancestry."
"The financial industry here is highly developed, and many mainland companies come here to list through backdoor listings. As far as I know, Jiafeng Electronics, under Mr. Lu's name, has always been losing money."
Lu Feng picked up a towel to wipe his mouth, tossed it onto the table, patted Nini's waist lightly, and said, "You should go back to your room first."
"Then I'll go back first, love you!" Nini said, kissing Lu Feng on the cheek before swaying away with the other girls.
Lu Feng stood up and walked towards the garden outside the restaurant, with the two reporters hurriedly following him.
"I'm the kind of person who, whether I'm running a business or making friends, never cares whether the other person has money or not, and I don't care whether the business makes money or loses money, because these two questions are meaningless. As long as I want, Jiafeng Electronics can be completely profitable in the next second. Running a business is just for fun, and making products is not for making money."
"What was the purpose of that?"
"Let's be friends!"
Lu Feng waved his hand dismissively and walked towards the golf course.
