Life at sea is quite pleasant.
Sing songs, drink tea, and just look at the sea on the deck when you have nothing to do.
If you want something exciting, you can drive the motorboat to the sea and drift, which is a very novel experience for everyone in the Chen family.
Especially the little kids, they play the craziest.
The older generation was still not used to celebrating the Spring Festival at sea, so on the day before the Lunar New Year, Chen Pingsheng drove his super yacht back to Hong Kong.
The whole family celebrated the festival in his mansion on Barker Road.
The housing prices in Hong Kong are not only the highest in Asia, but also the highest in the world.
People like them who live in a mountaintop villa can naturally enjoy the best fresh air, but those who live in pigeon coops have a completely different experience.
It was the first time for many relatives to come, and it happened to be the Chinese New Year.
The day before the Spring Festival is naturally a day for shopping, but Chen Pingsheng doesn't really want to go.
He just mentioned that he would pay for today's consumption and everyone could buy whatever they needed.
Yang Changwen was very happy. "Brother-in-law, do you have any good recommendations for houses in Hong Kong?"
"This still requires recommendations. The houses here depend entirely on your own consumption expectations."
Yang Changwen really wanted to buy a house in Hong Kong, but he was reluctant to spend too much money.
The main reason is that Chen Pingsheng said before that apart from basic needs, you should never expect a house to have any room for appreciation.
In this case, buying a thousand-square-foot mansion is considered a luxury, which is equivalent to a hundred-square-meter house in the mainland.
Someone with the means like him naturally wants to have a big house of his own in Hong Kong.
Other relatives basically don't have this idea.
Da Che took everyone shopping, and the only one who didn't go was Chen Anan.
She didn't have much to buy; she had everything she needed at home.
Besides, she hasn’t been to Hong Kong for a long time, so she decided to go and see the fat aunt first.
Chen Pingsheng drove the dark blue Pagani that he had never driven before and took her with him.
The car was purchased for over 30 million yuan and has been sitting here gathering dust for almost a year.
Even he himself doesn't know exactly when he bought it.
I only remember that his wife and I each bought one.
Chen Anan sat in the passenger seat and asked his father, "Dad, why do you want to spend the New Year in Hong Kong?"
"There are too many social conventions in the Magic City during the New Year and we have to leave."
Chen Pingsheng explained, "Many people will try their best to come to our house with gifts, and we will also have to go to other people's houses. Do you think we can still spend the Spring Festival peacefully at home?"
Chen Anan thought about it and it made sense. When she was in Beijing, her father was much busier than usual during the Spring Festival.
I have to move around everywhere, so now I just come to Hong Kong to avoid all the social interactions.
"Dad, don't we need to visit those people in the capital anymore?"
"It's not that you don't need to move around, but you should avoid this period of time."
Chen Pingsheng is always very patient with his own daughter.
"Those who have been running around during this period generally don't get much attention. After this period of time, I will take you to visit those retired old men in the capital. You should also know about the hidden connections our family has accumulated over the years."
In this part of the country, business is inseparable from politics.
It’s just that everyone does these things very secretly.
Just like those bigwigs won’t easily stand up for someone.
"Dad, it's hard to maintain these things, right?"
"It's not hard work. Insight into everything is a learning process. People in different circles often think differently. After this Spring Festival, I'll take you to introduce you to each of them. If you want to become a stable business leader in the future, you can only be at the mercy of others if you have money without these connections."
Chen Pingsheng said earnestly that Big Brat was about to go to junior high school.
It's time for her to get to know some big names in the Tencent Film Group. This is crucial.
Pagani is still extremely fast, and there are not many speed limits in Hong Kong.
In a city where sports cars are popular, a speed limit of 120 is meaningless.
The fat aunt is still working diligently to run the Foreigner Restaurant, which is like her second home in Hong Kong.
Friendly and respected.
Originally, Chen Anan wanted to invest in a few more restaurants for foreigners in Hong Kong, but after staying here for a while, he gave up this idea.
The main reason that really traps outsiders in Hong Kong is not only the high housing prices but also gambling.
People here love gambling so much that they often go to the casino to try their luck after receiving their salary.
It’s natural to be happy if you can win tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars, but most of the time you lose everything and become homeless.
Just one Stranger's restaurant won't change anything.
Chen Anan squatted outside without caring about her image and chatted with the fat aunt for a long time.
"An An, your Fatty Auntie isn't a respectable person, so how could she let you come and see in person?"
"Auntie Fatty, please don't belittle yourself. My dad always says that there is no distinction between high and low. I'm just an ordinary eleven-year-old girl."
"Your father taught you very well."
The fat lady sighed, "The rich people here don't treat us as human beings. An An, you are different from them."
"That's because my dad has always been there to teach me."
Chen Anan said happily, "Sister Youwei is busy in Shanghai, so she can't come to Hong Kong to see you this time. But my dad bought her a house there. Aunt Fatty, when you get old, Sister Youwei will definitely be willing to take care of you."
The fat aunt was deeply moved, as she had never had any children.
When you get old, retirement becomes a big problem.
Now with Shen Youwei's assurance, I can finally feel at ease.
"She was able to buy a house in Shanghai thanks to your father. Your father is so good to her."
"This is what should be done."
Shen Youwei had been with her for several years, and she was quite willful at that time.
Now she has gradually become sensible.
Chen Anan sat here for an entire afternoon, then waved goodbye to the fat aunt.
She has many elders at home, and they are almost back from shopping.
Can't stay here too long.
It was already six o'clock in the afternoon when she got home.
All the relatives have indeed returned, carrying bags full of things.
Most relatives just gave one or two new sets of clothes as symbolic gifts.
Only Yang Changwen picked out a Ferrari worth more than 7 million yuan for himself.
If he hadn't been short on time, he would have wanted to buy a famous watch.
Chen Pingsheng didn't care. It wouldn't cost much if he bought it.
As long as you don't gamble, no matter how much you have, it's no big deal.
He asked the Filipino maid to clean up the room, and after dinner in the evening, they basically went out to play by themselves.
Yang Changwen couldn't wait any longer and called Yang Kang and Peng Yu to go out and play together.
He actually wanted to pull Hu Lin with him, but unfortunately, Hu Lin didn't like going out to play at all.
He spends all his time with his wife and children.
Yang Changwen said he was taking them to Hong Kong to broaden their horizons, but somehow they ended up on a gambling boat.
