Film and Television: Bao Zong has finance in his left hand and entertainment in his right.

He just remembered that when he last took Xuezhi home, she was still living in a public housing estate. Now that he had even provided her with a car, shouldn't he find her a new place to live?

Otherwise, even if someone living in a public housing estate drives a Mercedes-Benz, it wouldn't reflect their status, much less befit the person in charge of Tianbao Entertainment Company! 610

Liu Xiaobao wouldn't be in Hong Kong often, so Xuezhi was the only one in charge of the entertainment company's affairs there. Therefore, Xuezhi was the face of Tianbao Entertainment, and Liu Xiaobao couldn't let her lose face.

Moreover, according to Liu Xiaobao, during this period, due to the failure of the Sino-British negotiations in 1992, the people of Hong Kong were in a state of panic, fearing that the mainland would use force to attack. As a result, many people were preparing to immigrate, and the housing prices in Hong Kong also plummeted, with houses not being expensive.

Realizing his oversight, Liu Xiaobao immediately decided to find Xuezhi a new place to live.

However, it was already past midnight, and this matter couldn't be handled immediately, so Liu Xiaobao watched Zhou Huimin enter the residential area and then returned to the Peninsula Hotel.

As soon as I returned to room '666', Su Jie came looking for me.

Upon seeing Su Jie, Liu Xiaobao asked curiously, "It's already one in the morning, why aren't you asleep yet?"

Su Jie smiled and said, "I was a little worried because you hadn't returned yet, so I was waiting for you. Also, I wanted to ask you if our travel permits allow us to stay for another day. Are we going back to Pujiang tomorrow?"

When Su Jie asked him that question, Liu Xiaobao realized that his pass was about to expire.

However, he did not plan to return to Shanghai now; he needed to observe the situation of the stock market in Hong Kong further.

So Liu Xiaobao replied to Su Jie almost without hesitation: "We should stay in Hong Kong for a while longer. Let's cross the border to Shenzhen tomorrow and then come back in from Shenzhen!"

Su Jie suggested, "Mr. Bao, this might work once or twice, but it won't work in the long run. Our travel permits only allow us to come to Hong Kong twice every three months. Since you have a company here, Mr. Bao, if you want to solve the problem of your stay, why not apply for a Hong Kong green card? Even without a permanent Hong Kong ID card, you can stay in Hong Kong for a long time."

Liu Xiaobao thought for a moment and replied, "Okay, we'll do it your way. We'll get started as soon as we re-enter the pass through Shenzhen tomorrow!"

Liu Xiaobao wasn't particularly concerned about nationality; he believed that as long as he loved his country, that was enough.

Moreover, he has a life goal of marrying seven wives like Wei Xiaobao, which is absolutely impossible without changing his nationality.

Moreover, Hong Kong will eventually return to China. Even if you become a Hong Konger, aren't you still a Chinese citizen?

Therefore, Liu Xiaobao had no objection to Su Jie's suggestion to apply for a Hong Kong green card.

Upon hearing that Liu Xiaobao had made up his mind, Su Jie did not linger any longer and turned to go back to the next room.

However, as Su Jie reached the door, he turned back and asked Liu Xiaobao with a smile, "Boss Bao, it seems you'll be spending the night alone again?"

Liu Xiaobao didn't answer, but threw a cushion at Su Jie. Su Jie wasn't hit, and he quickly closed the door and left. The cushion Liu Xiaobao threw only hit the door.

Just because Su Jie mentioned it, Liu Xiaobao, who hadn't felt lonely before, couldn't help but look at the empty room. Finally, he walked to the French windows, looked at the night view of Hong Kong, and felt a strange sense of loneliness.

The next day, after waking up, Liu Xiaobao and Su Jie went through customs, but did not linger or stroll around Shenzhen. They returned to Hong Kong directly through the other side of the border.

Although the matter was simple, it still took an entire afternoon to travel back and forth.

On the morning of the third day, before Liu Xiaobao had even woken up, Su Jie had already gone to inquire about the application requirements for a Hong Kong green card.

Around noon, Su Jie arrived at room '666'.

“Mr. Bao, I went to the immigration office today and asked. Actually, applying for a Hong Kong green card isn’t that difficult. Besides having a spouse in Hong Kong, you just need to own property in Hong Kong. You can have the property developer handle the application when registering the property owner.”

After listening to Su Jie's words, Liu Xiaobao immediately made a decision.

“I’ll call Xuezhi, and we’ll go see the house now.”

Liu Xiaobao had originally planned to change Xuezhi's residence, and now that he heard that he could apply for a green card as long as he owned property, Liu Xiaobao naturally would no longer postpone buying a house.

So after Xuezhi drove to the Peninsula Hotel to pick up the two, the three of them went to look at various properties together.

During the house-hunting process, Liu Xiaobao also confirmed the fact that house prices in Hong Kong are currently very cheap.

To put it simply, a luxury villa that was worth over 100 million in 2023 can now be bought for around 10 million in Hong Kong. A typical apartment in a high-rise building that would have cost 7 or 8 million in 2023 can now be bought for only 500,000 or 600,000.

Therefore, after learning about the housing prices in Hong Kong, Liu Xiaobao made a decision immediately: if he was going to buy, he would buy a detached villa as an investment.

Finally, in the Mid-Levels, Liu Xiaobao bought a detached villa that was for sale, and it only cost him nine million.

However, Liu Xiaobao didn't have that much cash on hand at the moment, so he only paid a deposit of one million yuan, and agreed to pay the remaining eight million yuan in three days.

Despite not having paid the full amount, the real estate developer still promised to help Liu Xiaobao and Su Jie obtain green cards after signing the contract.

Seeing how easily Liu Xiaobao bought such a detached house in Hong Kong, Xuezhi was filled with emotion.

"I never imagined that he could buy a house in the blink of an eye that I might have to work my whole life to afford!"

Three days later, Liu Xiaobao sold all the stocks he had.

This stock trading venture was quite profitable. In just a few days, the prices of the ten high-quality stocks that Liu Xiaobao bought all rose by more than two yuan.

The 100 million yuan that Liu Xiaobao invested, after being sold, has now been reduced to 112 million yuan.

In other words, Liu Xiaobao earned 12 million yuan in the past few days without doing anything.

A 12% return demonstrates just how easy it is to make money in the Hong Kong stock market during a bull market.

Perhaps that's why almost everyone in Hong Kong, from the super-rich to the dishwashers in restaurants, is buying and selling stocks!

However, Liu Xiaobao was well aware that such enthusiasm from Hong Kong people was only suitable for a good market. Once a stock market crash occurred, it would also hurt many, many people.

Liu Xiaobao kept a total of 100 million yuan in his stock trading account, and then withdrew 12 million yuan as agreed to pay the remaining 8 million yuan for the house.

Perhaps it's because Hong Kong people are more efficient.

Or perhaps it was because Liu Xiaobao's house purchase involved a large enough transaction that the real estate developer took it seriously.

When Liu Xiaobao took the money to complete the handover with the real estate developer, his and Su Jie's green cards had already been processed.

The reason Su Jie was also able to get it was because when Liu Xiaobao bought the house, the property was registered under both his and Su Jie's names.

Obtaining a green card means that Liu Xiaobao and Su Jie will no longer have time restrictions on their stay in Hong Kong. In fact, after residing in Hong Kong for seven years, they can directly apply for a permanent Hong Kong identity card.

This is undoubtedly something to be happy about.

But what made Liu Xiaobao happiest was that after paying the final payment, he received the house keys and property certificate.

When Liu Xiaobao returned to the house in the hillside, he had officially become the homeowner.

However, he only bought this house to apply for a green card and to house Xuezhi; neither he nor Su Jie will live here.

So when Liu Xiaobao opened the door and went inside, he didn't wander around anymore, but directly handed the key and property certificate to Xuezhi beside him.

"From now on, this is your new home!"

Upon hearing this, Xuezhi showed no surprise, but instead her face turned cold: "President Bao, I will earn money to buy a house on my own, I don't need your gifts!"

Liu Xiaobao, knowing Xuezhi well, immediately replied, "Xuezhi, you're overthinking it. This isn't a gift for you; it's just a company perk for you to move in. It's only appropriate for your current position as the head of Tianbao Entertainment Company. Besides, didn't you see the property deed? The owner's name on it is mine, not yours!"

Hearing Liu Xiaobao say that, Xuezhi felt much relieved.

After hesitating for a moment, she finally took the keys and property certificate from Liu Xiaobao: "Since it's a company benefit, I won't stand on ceremony!"

Seeing Xuezhi accept the keys and property certificate, Liu Xiaobao smiled and nodded.

Liu Xiaobao stopped getting involved in cleaning the house and let Xuezhi find a cleaning company to do it herself.

However, Liu Xiaobao gave Xuezhi another sum of money so that she could buy some furniture and appliances.

After settling Xuezhi's accommodation and obtaining her green card, Liu Xiaobao didn't linger. He said goodbye to Xuezhi and then took Su Jie back to the Peninsula Hotel by taxi.

After a day and a night of data calculation, Liu Xiaobao selected ten more high-quality stocks with slightly lower prices and invested the 100 million yuan back into the stock market.

This time, however, Liu Xiaobao didn't keep an eye on the stocks. Instead, he bought them and went straight to bed.

It wasn't that Liu Xiaobao was being careless; rather, he was confident in his calculations and the current state of the Hong Kong stock market. He believed that the ten stocks he had selected would definitely rise, and he only needed to check on them occasionally, without having to keep a close eye on them all the time.

Moreover, having not slept for a day and a night and having spent so much mental energy on calculations, Liu Xiaobao was truly exhausted and naturally needed to sleep.

However, Liu Xiaobao was woken up by a doorbell after only a few hours of sleep.

Liu Xiaobao deliberately turned off his mobile phone and even unplugged the landline before going to bed, all so he could get a good night's sleep.

Now that he was woken up by the doorbell, Liu Xiaobao was inevitably a little annoyed.

But when he opened the door, ready to unleash his anger, Liu Xiaobao's rage vanished instantly upon seeing who was outside.

Because standing outside the door was none other than Vivian Chow.

"Miss Zhou, what brings you here?"

Liu Xiaobao was no longer angry, but Zhou Huimin said angrily, "It's all because of you, Boss Bao. Your mobile phone is off, and I can't get through to your room's landline either, so I had no choice but to come here to find you."

"I'm sorry, Ms. Zhou, I just finished an investment deal and I'm sleeping right now. I turned off my phone so I wouldn't be disturbed. Is there anything urgent you need me for?"

Zhou Huimin turned her head to look at the corridor where people were walking and said, "Mr. Bao, can I go in first and then we can talk?"

"Uh... I'm sorry, Miss Zhou, I'm still half asleep and forgot we're talking at the door. Please come in, please come in."

Liu Xiaobao invited Zhou Huimin into the house. Still wearing his bathrobe, he poured her a glass of water, then went back to his room to change his clothes before returning to the living room to continue their previous conversation.

"Miss Zhou, did you come to see me for something else? Or do you simply want to invite me to dinner?"

Zhou Huimin smiled, ignoring Liu Xiaobao's joke, and instead took out a file folder from her bag while speaking to Liu Xiaobao.

“I came here specifically to ask you for the song. Also, here is 30,000 yuan, which is the money I paid for your song ‘A Girl’s Prayer’ last time.”

... 0th

Liu Xiaobao hesitated for a moment before taking the file bag from Zhou Huimin, but he didn't open it to look at the money inside.

He simply smiled and said one sentence to Vivian Chow.
