Chapter 1068 Encounter with Betty

After Zhoutou decided to accept Suning as his apprentice, he naturally put 100% of his energy into the work. After all, the salary offered by Suning was very attractive.

In fact, Zhou Jitou also knew that the word and title of "Master" were given to him to give him face. After all, he also understood that Suning was attracted by his connections and experience in the Foreign Trade Corporation. After all, it is impossible to sum up the intricacies of the foreign trade industry in one sentence.

For example, in the original drama, there are often mysterious people who tip off the uncle, allowing Mr. Bao to escape danger in the storm time and time again. This is the greatest help that the uncle can provide to Mr. Bao.

Therefore, what Suning values most is Zhou Qitou's ability. In addition, he only knows the general trend of the times, and has no idea about the rules and unspoken rules of the foreign trade industry.

As a golden flower in the Foreign Trade Building No. 27, Jinhua's sense of touch and sensitivity are naturally very sharp. Zhou Qitou's recent sudden appearance in the Foreign Trade Building made her realize something.

When she came to work early in the morning, Jinhua called out to Wang Mingzhu, who was late again, "Xiao Wang, come to my office."

Wang Mingzhu, who was secretly eating breakfast, almost choked, "Yes! Master."

When Wang Mingzhu hurriedly arrived at the office, she immediately wiped the food residue from the corner of her mouth and asked, "Master, do you have something to talk to me about?"

Jin Hua went straight to the point and looked at Wang Mingzhu in front of her and asked, "Xiao Wang, I've seen your father come to No. 27 frequently these days. Is there something wrong with him?"

"Master, my father recently took in an apprentice who is learning how to do business, and his apprentice wants to open a foreign trade company affiliated with No. 27. My father has been helping his apprentice with this matter recently."

"What? Apprentice? That must be a genius. I remember your father used to be the one who was most afraid of trouble."

"Master, you actually know this person. All of us at No. 27 have heard of him."

Jinhua, who was tidying up her desk, couldn't help but pause. "Oh? Who is it? Why is it so grand?"

"Suning! Suning, the new stock god in Shanghai."

"It's actually him! If he's such a genius in the stock market, why doesn't he just continue to work there? Why is he interested in the foreign trade industry instead?"

"Suning said the stock market is meant to serve the real economy, so he wants to use the wealth he earns from the stock market to invest in real industry."

"Well, it seems that Suning is a smart man. He hasn't been blinded by his success in the stock market."

"Really? Actually, I think so too. Suning has also opened a clothing company and is now planning to open stores in several major commercial streets in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. His plan for the future is to focus on branding with one hand and seize opportunities in the foreign trade industry with the other."

"No! To be more precise, we should focus on the stock market with one hand and the real economy with the other."

"Hehe, Master, your analysis is correct. It seems that I, your senior brother, am safe."

"Xiao Wang, your senior brother is very extraordinary. Remember to remind your father that there are some things that must not be done."

"Yes! Master, I will remind my father to be more careful."

"Well, get out to work!"

The reason why Jinhua specifically called Wang Mingzhu into the office today was because she was worried that something might happen to her at the beginning of the week, and it would be bad if she was implicated at that time.

As the saying goes, what a person fears most is often what he often does to others. Because Jinhua personally reported her uncle, Jinhua does not trust the people around her at all. As long as there is a little movement, she will find out the ins and outs of the matter.

However, Jinhua did not expect that Zhou Litou, who had been honest all his life, would take action in his later years. She realized that Suning must be very special and powerful, otherwise, based on Jinhua's understanding of Zhou Litou, he would not have taken action easily.

As for wanting to have the foreign trade company affiliated with the Import and Export Corporation, Jinhua did not think it was a big deal. After analysis, she believed that it would soon be approved by the head office.

……

At this time, Suning was forced to go to Hong Kong. After all, it was already August, and it was less than two months since the August 7 stock market crash that shocked the world.

Now Suning’s stock trading team has been doing short-term operations, because they are worried that they will be trapped in the Hong Kong stock market if they are not careful. After all, the impact of the 87 stock market crash is still very large.

The AI robot that came to Hong Kong to manage the stock market looked at Suning and reported, "Master, the Hong Kong stock market has been getting increasingly hot lately. It feels like it could fall into a desperate situation at any moment."

Suning looked at the AI robot noncommittally and asked, "Well, how much money do we have in our account now?"

"Including the 10 million from Xinyi Pharmaceutical, there's probably over 80 million RMB in the account, and all of it was capitalized with the profits from the Electric Vacuum stock."

"Well, it seems you have done a good job during this period."

"Master, what should we do next?"

"Of course, we'll use more leverage to short the stock market. We'll definitely take advantage of this stock market crash to make a killing, and then buy up those blue-chip stocks in Hong Kong at low prices. Then we'll just have to rely on these blue-chip stocks to grow."

"Yes! Master, I have already booked a room for you at the Peninsula Hotel."

This time, Suning is not planning to purchase real estate in Hong Kong immediately. After all, the best time is after the outbreak of the 1987 stock market crash. At that time, the Hong Kong stock market and real estate will naturally be Suning’s first choice.

In fact, it doesn’t matter whether I come to Hong Kong or not. After all, I am very confident in my stock market trading team, and the stock market knowledge they possess may even surpass mine.

But the three giants of Sinopharm really annoyed Suning. They actually took turns running to Delin Apartment, and did not explicitly urge Suning to go to Hong Kong to take charge. They just chatted with Suning in a casual manner.

Although Suning also knew that 10 million was a huge sum of money in the 1980s, it was still driven crazy by the outrageous operations of the three giants of Sinopharm. After seeing that the matter in Shanghai had come to an end, it flew to Hong Kong.

Standing in this super deluxe sea view suite of the Peninsula Hotel, overlooking the Victoria Harbour through the glass window, Suning was thinking about the next business operations in his mind.

You should know that the foreign trade and stock market shown in the original drama of "Fanhua" are just the first hot spot, and there is another most awesome hot spot, real estate.

Of course, this is also a foreshadowing of the finale of "Fanghua". Mr. Bao and Mr. Fan from Hangzhou both shed their worldly desires and made heavy bets on real estate.

Then when the time came to the 21st century, the trend became real estate and the Internet going hand in hand, so there are really not many big guys who can last for more than 40 years.

Therefore, if Suning wants to continue to be a big boss, he still needs to face many challenges, and sometimes even needs to restrain and resist endless temptations. Naturally, Suning, who likes challenges and excitement, can't help but get excited.

A sudden knock on the door disrupted Suning's thoughts.

"Please come in." Suning just said casually to the door, then turned his head to look at Victoria Harbour outside the window again.

"Mr. Su, this is the 1983 Lafite you asked for."

"Thank you!" Suning said casually at first, but when he turned around and looked at the hotel waitress in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised, "Beautiful girl, have we met somewhere before?"

"Huh? Mr. Su, maybe it's because I have an ordinary face." This kind of approaching conversation naturally made the waiter a lot of experience, so he responded with a very experienced smile. "Pretty girl, you are modest! You don't look ordinary at all."

"Mr. Su, my name is Betty. I'm a waitress at the Peninsula Hotel. You can always contact me if you need anything."

"Miss Betty, can you enjoy this bottle of Lafite with me?"

"Thank you for the invitation, Mr. Su! The Peninsula Hotel has a policy that employees cannot drink alcohol during working hours."

"Then I'll wait for you to get off work, no matter how late it is today."

"This……"

Su Ning naturally saw the waiter's dilemma, and then nonchalantly counted out ten hundred-dollar bills, "This thousand dollars is your tip. As for whether you come today or not, it's up to you."

"Thank you, Mr. Su." The waiter naturally accepted the tip without hesitation. Here, tips are their main source of income.

After the beautiful waitress with a good figure left the room, Suning still felt a little surprised in his heart. He really didn't expect that the other party was Betty, the ex-girlfriend of Shanghai Bao.

The original drama of "Fanhua" only briefly introduced the ending of this ex-girlfriend, but it also allowed the audience to guess that this ex-girlfriend must have died miserably. You know, playing golf is still very common in Hong Kong.

Since he met Betty by such a coincidence, Suning naturally prepared to rescue this female fairy without hesitation. You know, Suning really couldn't stand seeing such a fairy harming others.

……

Suning did not go out to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange that day, but waited in this sea view room. Sure enough, at 11 o'clock in the evening, he heard the extremely tempting knock on the door again.

"dong dong dong"

"Please come in."

"Mr. Su, I got off work late today."

"It's okay! I'm always patient with women I'm interested in."

"Mr. Su, do you need me to open this bottle of wine now?"

But Suning suddenly approached Betty and whispered, "Betty, I think you should go take a shower first, and then we can talk and enjoy the wine."

Betty didn't expect Su Ning to be so impatient. Naturally, her face changed and she tried to defend herself, "Ah? Mr. Su, I don't do this kind of thing."

Then, Suning took out a bank card and put it directly into Betty's hand, explaining, "There are 200,000 Hong Kong dollars in this card. I think you should like it."

"..." Looking at the extremely tempting bank card in her hand, Betty finally compromised with money.

Watching Betty put away her bank card and walk straight into the bathroom of the suite, Suning used the remote control to open the transparent glass of the bathroom. Looking at the lively woman in the bathroom, he couldn't help but smile silently.

Red wine and beautiful women are naturally the most perfect match in the world. Enjoying the tenderness of a beautiful woman in your arms while tasting top-notch wine is naturally the ultimate enjoyment.

Suning did not have much aversion to the beautiful woman in his arms. He could only say that she was very unfortunate in her life. It seemed that she had chosen a bright road, but in fact it was a dead end with no turning back.

After being satisfied, Suning was ready to support this beautiful woman directly. "Betty, I want to take you away. What are the conditions?"

Betty naturally didn't mind too much, but she really wanted to hear Suning's offer first. "I... I like this job very much."

"A thousand-square-foot mansion in Taikoo Shing, two hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars a month for living expenses, a million-dollar Mercedes-Benz, and the position of deputy general manager of Ningcheng Real Estate Company."

At this moment, Betty couldn't help but feel moved, but on the surface she pretended to be reserved and entangled, "Mr. Su, can you let me think about it?"

"Okay! Now I feel it again, let's continue..."

"what……"

The conditions that Suning offered to Betty were very generous. Betty herself knew that if she missed this opportunity, she might never get it again. After all, the guests who actually stayed at the Peninsula Hotel would not take it seriously.

As for what Betty told Suning that she would consider it, it was just her last bit of pretense of reserve, so Betty had no choice but to agree to Suning's support.

Finally, Betty personally lit a Cuban cigar for Su Ning, and then asked Su Ning in confusion, "Mr. Su, are you from Shanghai?"

At this time, Su Ning took out the Cuban cigar from his mouth and corrected Betty, saying, "From now on, you can call me Brother or Brother Ning."

"Brother."

"My home base is in Shanghai. I will fly back to see you often in the future."

"Actually, I can also follow you back to Shanghai. Besides, I'm from Shanghai."

"Now that you've finally gotten out, would you be willing to go back now?"

"I……"

"Betty, I know your situation very well. I also know your persistence in Hong Kong for so many years, so I am willing to help you get the life you want."

"Brother, how did you know me?"

"Xuezhi, once the most popular bus driver on Shanghai's Thirteenth Road, married a Hong Kong businessman in 1977 or 1988 and just completed divorce procedures with her ex-husband this year."

"..."

"Betty, I don't mean to offend you. I just want to tell you that I can give you everything you want, but I need your physical and mental loyalty."

"Brother, I know. From now on, I will follow you wholeheartedly."

"Then we'll see."
