Mixed in 1980

Chapter 265 Sun-No Good News

"You must have correct thoughts, a positive attitude, empty your mind, and clean up the colors to be a good comrade of socialism."

As a couple for so long, how could Zeng Ali not know what Chen Fan was thinking? Whenever she got the chance, she would just have a sweet dream of sleeping together in the same bed, and she wouldn't think about anything else.

However, she was still curious: "What's the bet?"

Chen Fan raised his eyebrows: "I bet that I can convince you that what I just said will definitely come true. Then tonight, the three of you, hehe..."

"Go to hell, just thinking about good things."

Zeng Ali spat and said teasingly, "Are you going to lose? It's not that easy to convince us unless there is enough evidence."

"You set the conditions, but you can't cheat!"

"Qiu'er, what do you think?"

Zeng Ali asked, and Teacher Xu raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "Let's bet with him. I don't believe that he can distort such a thing."

"Women hold up half the sky. This is absolutely true. Our parents' generation and our generation are all good. How can we let the next generation go to waste? Let's bet!"

Zeng Ali twisted his neck and said, "I'll go take a shower and change clothes first, and then I'll talk to you when I come out."

Xu Jinqiu sat down next to Chen Fan: "Teacher Chen, do you really think you can convince us? If you lose, you will be my waiter for three days."

Chen Fan scratched his wife's nose and said, "You are bound to lose this game."

"It's broad daylight, you two should be careful."

Miss Zhao came in holding the baby. More than two months old, the little baby has grown up. Her big eyes look very much like her mother's, fluttering around, which is particularly cute.

Chen Fan picked up the little girl, kissed her carefully, and then invited Miss Zhao to a bet.

After hearing the whole story, Miss Zhao's eyes lit up: "If you lose, you will be on call within three days. If I tell you to go east, you can't go west."

"You're going to lose, so don't cheat!"

"Mr. Zhao never defaults on his debts. I don't believe the future will be like that. Each generation is stronger than the previous one. Our generation is not bad, and the future generations will be even better." Miss Zhao said confidently.

"Yuanyuan is right!"

Zeng Ali took a shower and changed into a loose black shirt. "Comrade Chen Fan, come on, start your speech. I don't believe you can convince the three of us."

"Most people in Hong Kong come from the mainland, and their cultural attributes are basically the same as ours. Is there anything wrong with this?" Chen Fan asked.

The three girls nodded. That’s how it is!
Even many traditions are well preserved in Hong Kong, such as the Tai O Dragon Boat Race, the Tai Hang Fire Dragon Dance and the Cheung Chau Bun Festival.

Chen Fan continued, "Does Hong Kong's current situation have any reference significance for the future of the mainland? It can even be said that there is not much difference."

Zeng Ali came over and took her daughter away: "There is nothing wrong with this statement. It can be used as a reference. Hong Kong..."

Having said that, I suddenly don’t know what to say.

You are a light luxury brand, how can you not understand your customer base?

Since the 1970s, a large number of women have entered the workplace, and the status of women has been quietly rising, which was originally a good thing.

After 1982, both the real estate and stock markets collapsed.

A pair of Lululemon yoga pants costs thousands of Hong Kong dollars, but most of the people who pay are men.

Not only Zeng Ali, but Miss Zhao also realized that the price of Luoshen skin care products is much higher than similar competing products, and most of the payers are men.

It’s just that the situation is not as serious as in Japan.

The reason is that Hong Kong's economy is not as good as Japan's for the time being, but it will not be much worse in a few years.

Since the 1980s, Hong Kong men have been switching wives.

In this era, with a salary of only a few dozen yuan in the mainland and a few thousand Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong, it is still very easy to marry a mainland wife if there are the right opportunities and channels.

"That is why ah?"

Miss Zhao couldn't understand why people couldn't live a good life when the economy was developing?

Chen Fan had no answer to this question.

In the era of economic development, material desire is the driving force for survival and struggle, but it is also a double-edged sword that constantly threatens inner peace and makes it easy for people to lose themselves.

As for the specific reasons, Chen Fan is not a sociology researcher, so how can he know clearly?

Chen Fan didn't care about this.

Just be yourself: "You three, be ready tonight, and don't default on your debts!"

After taking his daughter from Zeng Ali's arms, Chen Fan walked outside. He could never get enough of these days of accompanying his wife and the baby for a walk.

But that night, someone changed his mind!

Miss Zhao refused to admit her mistake and ran to Chen Min's room with her child to sleep. Chen Fan was so angry that he kept scolding her for not being able to accept defeat and having no credibility.

The next day, Miss Zhao felt guilty.

Holding Chen Fan's arm, the older brother was taller and the younger brother was shorter, which made Chen Fan calm down a lot: "Change your name to Zhao Laipi from now on!"

Miss Zhao nodded: "I'm the lazy Zhao!" Chen Fan smiled bitterly. This girl knows how to laugh at herself. As long as it makes her feel comfortable, she doesn't care if she is called a salted fish, a little waste, or an alley urchin...

"Xiao Fan, when will you be back?"

Chen Min came out holding her son. The little guy was almost one year old. He was chubby and looked good, but his older sister was ready to beat him.

Chen Fan brought the little guy over and teased him a few times: "The day after tomorrow!"

May is over and it’s almost October. All the planning has been done, all the work has been done, and now all we have to do is wait for the harvest.

Chen Min also planned to go back. Although it had only been a few days since the Plaza Accord was signed, the US dollar began to depreciate, while the Japanese yen and gold were appreciating.

The futures purchased previously have already started to make money.

Chen Min felt relieved and started packing her luggage that day. Two days later, she returned to Beijing with her three younger siblings.

As for Chen Fan, he took a detour to Japan!

After coming out of the airport, Zhou Wenya and Yu Jing were already waiting. Both of them couldn't hide the smiles on their faces, especially Zhou Wenya, who looked very festive.

"Mr. Chen, shall we go to the hotel first, or to the company?"

"Go to the company first!"

Chen Fan came here to find out the specific situation.

At the branch office, everyone is busy. In addition to long-term holdings, there is also a lot of money for short-term operations, which are bought and sold every day.

Yu Jing had already prepared the report, and Chen Fan spent several hours reading it very carefully.

Whether it was futures or long-term held stocks, as expected, prices rose after the Plaza Accord was signed.

It’s just that the time is short and the profit is not much.

As for the funds for short-term operations, they truly test the ability of the trader. Some will lose money, some will make money, but overall, more will be made.

After closing the report, Chen Fan was not dissatisfied. After a few years, when he withdrew his investment, the funds in his hands would increase to an astonishing number.

It is worth mentioning that Zeng Ali and Miss Zhao were also very satisfied.

Their brands have already entered Japan. In recent years, the purchasing power of Chinese women has been very strong, so Lululemon and Roselle skincare products will never have trouble selling.

Lululemon, in particular, has entered Japan for several years and has a large number of stores. Many investment institutions have already found the company, hoping to be listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange.

Zeng Ali rejected them all!
With no shortage of cash on hand, Zeng Ali is not very interested in capital games and would rather work hard on real business. At least he has no plans to go public in the short term.

After learning about the company's operating conditions and staying for another two days, Chen Fan took Chen Dailao back to Beijing.

It's not easy for the old man either. He is so old, and in order to support Chen Fan, he has been out for several months. Chen Fan is worried that the old man's body can't take it.

Whether in Hong Kong or in Japan, Chen Fan did not dare to be negligent in the slightest and had to have someone following him 24 hours a day to feel at ease.

Chen Fan came here specifically to pick up the old man.

After returning to the capital and sending the old man home safely, Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief: "Old man, you have a good rest, I won't disturb you."

"Okay, let's go back!"

The old man waved his hand and impatiently drove the man away. This guy was considerate enough, but too annoying. He was in good health and could walk.

He is still very satisfied with this student.

He is capable and ruthless in the business world, yet kindhearted and has a very upright stance. Otherwise, he would have nothing better to do than introduce him to other people.

Chen Fan is an undergraduate student, and the old gentleman only teaches PhD students. Accepting Chen Fan as a student means that Chen Fan can use his own connections.

If Chen Fan only does business abroad, these connections may not be of much use, but once he returns to the mainland to invest, the value of these connections will be immeasurable.

Sun Shaojie, isn’t that it!
There are a lot of students like Sun Shaojie!
After leaving the old man's house, Chen Fan rushed home without stopping. He hadn't seen his little baby for a few days and missed him very much.

Seeing him coming in and wanting to pick up the child, Zeng Ali pushed him away in disgust. He had been on a plane and in a car, and he was dirty and smelled. "Go take a shower and change clothes first."

If you can’t hold the child, just hug your wife and give her a kiss.

Zeng Ali didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This guy was really weird. He urged him to have a child as if it was his life. After he already had a child, he treated the child as his eye.

After taking a shower, Chen Fan walked around the yard holding the child. Xiaoxi followed behind him and suddenly asked, "Uncle, can I beat my sister?"

“……” Chen Fan was stunned.

The boomerang hit him on the body. After thinking for a while, he said, "Xiaoxi, my brother can be beaten, but my sister must be hurt, just like your aunt."

Xiaoxi said "oh" and Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief.

I can't continue chatting with the little girl. What if she suddenly gets an idea and finds a reason to beat her younger sister? Then my daughter will have to bear the brunt of the punishment in the future.

Just as he was about to walk into the living room, Sun Shaojie and his wife suddenly came to the door, holding the child in their arms. Chen Fan was immediately confused: "Six and a half pounds in your family?"

"What do you mean six and a half pounds?"

Sun Shaojie was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and scolded: "Can you say something nice? Your uncle's name is Sun Haoran, the Haoran of righteousness."
