The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang

"10, 91, Happy New Year!"

Xiangjiang, Wanchai, midnight, the New Year's bell rings amidst the shouts of the crowd.

1975 has passed, and 1976 has come!

Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang stood in the crowd, while Qin Peng and others scattered around to protect secretly.

"Happy New Year!"

Cao Yunshang hugged Chu Huan's waist, raised his neck, with a happy smile on his face.

"Happy New Year!"

Chu Huan leaned over and nodded Cao Yunshang's lips, then spoke with a smile.

"Let's go, sister-in-law and Qingqing are still waiting for us to go home for dinner!" Cao Yunshang said happily, holding Chu Huan's hand.

Chu Huan followed Cao Yunshang, walked through the crowd, and went to find their car.

After Qingzhou Yingni's takeover battle ended, Xiangjiang's business community entered a stable period. Although there were several acquisitions during this period, compared with Qingzhou Yingni, none of them were too important or sensational.

Chu Huan, on the other hand, pursues all low-key principles. In November and December, he basically did not appear in the media. It dropped a lot.

Chu Huan was driving, Cao Yunshang was sitting in the co-pilot's seat, Qin Peng and others were protecting the front and back, and the group came to the Chu family's ancestral house in Repulse Bay.

Chu Huan had already given this place to his sister-in-law, Chu Duanqing. Although many people valued the so-called ancestral house very much, to Chu Huan, he didn't care about it at all. The emotion here is deeper.

The two had dinner at Cao Yunshang's home in the evening, and now they are going to Chu Duanqing's place for supper.

"Brother, sister-in-law!"

The 11-year-old Zhong Xiaoqing immediately ran over happily after seeing Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang, hugged Cao Yunshang's slender waist, and asked for a gift coquettishly!

Cao Yunshang took the gift that had been prepared in Qin Peng's hands and handed it to Zhong Xiaoqing. After Zhong Xiaoqing saw that it was a giant plush toy that was taller than her, she happily took it from Cao Yunshang's hands , said happily: "Thank you sister-in-law!"

Chu Huan also showed a happy smile and said, "Qingqing, brother also prepared a gift for you, and I will give it to you now!"

Hearing the gift prepared by Chu Huan, the smile on Zhong Xiaoqing's face disappeared immediately, she looked at Chu Huan warily, and said, "Brother, let's not be so polite between brothers and sisters, really, there is a gift from sister-in-law I am very satisfied!"

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "Then how can it be, these gifts represent brother's strong brother and sister love for you!"

"Can I stop this brother-sister relationship?" Zhong Xiaoqing backed away holding a plush toy that was bigger than herself, her eyes were even more guarded!

"Of course not, my brother loves you so much, I must prepare a gift for you!"

While talking, Chu Huan took the gift he had prepared for Zhong Xiaoqing from Qin Peng's hands, "Dangdang, the latest extracurricular exercise collection, do you like it?"

Zhong Xiaoqing stared blankly at Chu Huan, and finally couldn't help saying: "You are really my brother!"

"That must be!" Chu Huan said triumphantly.

Seeing that Chu Huan was teasing Zhong Xiaoqing here, Cao Yunshang angrily took the exercise set from Chu Huan's hands, and then said to Zhong Xiaoqing who was about to cry: "Don't listen to your brother, the gift he prepared for you is a set of the latest Disney animation videos, but all in English, no dubbing!"

Only then did Zhong Xiaoqing show a really happy smile, and said, "It's okay, I understand it!"

Zhong Xiaoqing received a proper elite education, let alone English, even French can chat with people a few words.

"Sister-in-law, is the meal ready? I'm hungry!"

Chu Huan rubbed Zhong Xiaoqing's head, walked into the living room, and shouted loudly.

Chu Duanqing came out of the restaurant, and said with a smile on his face, "Okay, I'll just wait for you two!"

Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang brought Zhong Xiaoqing to the restaurant, which was already full of food.

Several people were seated, ready to eat supper.

Chu Duanqing didn't move his chopsticks, but asked Chu Huan with a smile: "It's been 76 years now, and there are only three months left before you get married. How are you preparing?"

The wedding of Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang can be said to have attracted the attention of the whole city. Naturally, it is impossible to start a month in advance like ordinary people's weddings. Their wedding has already begun preparations.

Chu Huan said: "This matter has been handed over to Xu Yi and Wu Shuhan. They will be busy with this matter once the New Year holiday is over."

"After all, the two of them are two little girls. They are not married yet. Can they understand these things?"

Chu Duanqing preached with some worry.

Cao Yunshang said from the side: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, my mother will follow this matter, there will be no problems. Originally, I wanted you to help me more, but Brother Huan said that you are not good at work. Things are busy enough, don't let us bother you!"

Chu Duanqing is really busy now, not only responsible for the finances of Zhulu Real Estate, but also part of the financial affairs of Bank A, and now Chu Duanqing also has his own position in Bank A, the deputy manager of the financial department!

"Nothing is as important as the wedding of the two of you!" Chu Duan gave Chu Huan a clear look, and said, "It's easy for you, even this kind of thing has become a hands-off shopkeeper!"

Chu Huan chuckled, and said, "I have no experience in this kind of thing. If I don't wait until the next time, I will definitely have experience!"

One sentence drew condemnation from the three women present, and Chu Huan could only beg for mercy in the end.

"By the way, A Huan, have you found someone from your mommy?"

In this world, Chu Huan’s nominal mother, Chen Shufen, is not from Xiangjiang, but came to Xiangjiang with Chu Huan’s grandfather in 1949. According to Chen Shufen, there are her mother and two younger sisters in her hometown a younger brother.

Originally, Chu Huan's grandfather thought that he would bring his eldest daughter to Xiangjiang first, and after gaining a firm foothold, he would bring the rest of his family to Xiangjiang.

As a result, Chu Huan's master fell ill as soon as he arrived in Xiangjiang, and passed away within two years after persisting. Later, Chen Shufen met Chu Tianzhong, and the two fell in love, got married, and had children. With the younger sister and the younger brother's traces, they all disappeared without any news.

Now that Chu Huan is getting married, Chu Duanqing also reminded Chu Huan of this matter.

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "No, no one lives in the address that mother left before, and no one knows where grandma and the others are if I ask someone."

Chu Huan indeed arranged for Lin Feng to find someone from his hometown to investigate this matter, but he did not find it.

"But for such an important matter as your marriage, Qingqing and I are the only ones in the family!" Chu Duanqing looked at Chu Huan with some hesitation, and said, "Ah Huan, why don't we take care of you?"

"Sister-in-law, is your chef lazy? The heat of this steamed grouper is obviously wrong!" Chu Huan interrupted Chu Duanqing.

Chu Duanqing also understood what Chu Huan meant, but he still didn't forgive those people.

"A Huan, in fact, it has been so long. Now that you have become famous again, why bother about those things before?"

If it was before, Chu Duanqing wouldn't say anything after Chu Huan expressed his attitude, but now that Chu Huan's marriage is such a big deal, if Chu Huan still doesn't allow those from the Chu family to participate, she is still worried Chu Huan will lose his reputation.

Chu Huan put down his chopsticks, looked at Chu Duanqing with some helplessness and said: "Sister, I understand what you mean, but this matter, my attitude was this way before, my attitude is this way now, and my attitude will be the same in the future. Such.

When I was kicked out of the Chu family back then, they didn't care about family affection. Besides, if I hadn't made some achievements now, I would be like many people, working hard from 9 to 5 in a precarious job, my aunt You may also be thinking about doing some work to subsidize your family with Qingqing.

Do you think they will think of us?

So I can't do the kind of thing that repays grievances with virtue. Now that the company doesn't specifically target them, it is enough to give them face, so sister-in-law, let's not talk about these things in the future! "

Hearing what Chu Huan said, Chu Duanqing knew Chu Huan's determination, and after thinking about it, he sighed and said nothing.

Chu Huan picked up the bowl and chopsticks again and continued to eat.

The Chu family's ancestral house is not very far from where Chu Huan lives now, so Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang did not take the car, but walked back, one for a walk after dinner, and the other for romance.

Cao Yunshang took Chu Huan's arm and said softly, "My sister is also thinking of you."

Chu Huan nodded, and said, "I know, I don't mean to blame my aunt, it's just that thinking about those people gives me a headache."

Cao Yunshang smiled and said, "Then don't think about it, let's tell you something happy!"

Chu Huan asked with a smile: "What happy thing?"

Cao Yunshang said proudly: "I have already decided, after our wedding is over, I will officially go to France to discuss the purchase of Printemps!"

Before, Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang had discussed about Cao Yunshang's future business map.

Although Cao Yunshang now has four companies in Xiangjiang, namely Yunshang Boutique, Fengwu Securities, Anjia Decoration, and Gonghe Construction, among which Gonghe Construction is still a listed company.

But after the discussion between the two, Cao Yunshang decided to focus his future business on luxury goods.

The acquisition of Spring Department Store is the first step for Cao Yunshang to enter the world's luxury battlefield!

Chu Huan didn't have any opinion on this, but he still reminded: "Although the luxury goods industry has not yet formally formed, it is also a chaotic period where each is fighting, but in the final analysis, it belongs to the Europeans' private battlefield. There will still be some difficulties in grabbing business!"

Cao Yunshang nodded and said, "I'm already mentally prepared for this, but if I want to buy Spring Department Store, I will definitely stay in France for a while, so don't miss me too much then!"

Chu Huan chuckled, and said, "Don't worry, when the time comes, which of the two of us will think about who is not sure, but then you don't have to think about doing everything yourself, the ghost's business is still in the hands of the ghost Alright, after you complete the acquisition, I will help you transfer a group of people in the Jiaku. First, to balance the rights of the ghost management over there. That's fine, you really want to stay there for a long time!"

When Cao Yunshang heard what Chu Huan said, he chuckled, hugged Chu Huan's arm and said seriously: "I can't bear to leave you for such a long time!"

The two chatted and returned to the villa in Repulse Bay.

In the next few days, Chu Huan had various entertainments.

"A Huan, what do you think of the future development of the original site of the North American Tobacco Company that our three companies bought together?"

On this day, Chu Huan, Guo Bingxiang, and Zheng Jiachun sat together, and Zheng Jiachun also asked Chu Huan.

Just in November last year, Zheng Yutong's New World, Guo Desheng's Sun Hung Kai, and Chu Huan's Zhulu cooperated to sell the original site of North American Tobacco Company in Wanchai.

However, this matter is based on Zheng Yutong's new world as the main operation, and the competition is only a shareholding participation.

Facing Zheng Jiachun's question, Chu Huan said with a nonchalant smile, "This should be something you worry about in New World. We Zhulu don't have any opinions on this land, but we don't know if Sun Hung Kai has any opinions!"

Guo Bingxiang shouted directly: "Don't, we at Sun Hung Kai don't have any opinions, our Sun Hung Kai is the same as competing in this matter, the most important thing is to participate!"

Zheng Jiachun said with a smile: "If you two have no objections, then our New World is planning to build two buildings there, which will be used for rent collection in the future!"

Chu Huan and Guo Bingxiang smiled at each other and said, "Whatever!"

These two buildings are actually the later Elizabeth Building and Locke Building!

As Cao Wenjin said to Chu Huan before, in fact, in the older generation of Xiangjiang, many businesses are led by one company, and then jointly developed by several other companies.

A business model like Chu Huan's is actually very rare.

Guo Bingxiang gloated and said to Chu Huan, "Isn't your life in TVB going to be very easy these days?"

Chu Huan looked at Guo Bingxiang with interest and asked, "Why did Brother Guo say this?"

"In September last year, He Zuozhi founded Jiayi TV, the third TV station in Xiangjiang. In the past, two monks carried water to drink, but now there are three monks grabbing water. Don't you worry at all?"

In September last year, He Zuozhi applied for a TV station license and officially announced that he would establish the third TV station in Xiangjiang. Because of He Zuozhi's identity, this matter became a big news at the time.

Chu Huan smiled after listening, and said: "The He family, the Li family has been fighting for so many years, and now it's starting again. I have nothing to worry about. Besides, Jiayi TV was founded. I don't like him!"

He Dong's family and Li Xishen's family, these are the two earliest wealthy families in Xiangjiang. Although they are married, they are still fighting openly and secretly!

Zheng Jiachun reminded Chu Huan, "Ah Huan, I don't think you can take this matter lightly. He Zuozhi owns a commercial radio station, and his brother of the same father and different mother also owns the "Business Daily." Media group!"

Chu Huan took a sip of the whiskey in his glass and said calmly, "Do you believe this kind of thing?"

No one knew better than them what was going on with the rich families in Xiangjiang, especially the situation of the He family. Hearing what Chu Huan said, Guo Bingxiang and Zheng Jiachun just smiled after thinking about it.

Chu Huan continued: "If the media group is so easy to do, then it is not a media group, and He Zuozhi has learned a lot from his old man's stingy character. Although Leon and Shao Liushu are also famous for their stinginess, but When they founded TVB and Shaw Brothers, they were quite generous.

Now TVB is the only one in Xiangjiang, even Lai TV is no match. Do you think a newly established TV station can give them two headaches? "

Guo Bingxiang looked at Chu Huan curiously, and asked: "It is said that A Huan is very independent in business, but you really only hold the controlling stake in Li \u0026 Fung Group and TVB, and do not participate in the real management. Do you really trust these two companies so much?"

Chu Huan smiled, and said: "There are specialties in the art industry. Since they can make this business bigger, it shows their ability. If this is the case, why should I mess around? Professional things are handed over. I think it's good for professionals to do it.

As for whether it is independent or not, other people don’t know, don’t you know? "

Guo Bingxiang and Zheng Jiachun looked at each other and smiled, then said in unison: "It's hard to say."

Chu Huan looked at the two laughing and shook his head helplessly.

"Don't talk about me, what on earth is Uncle Zheng thinking? Are you really planning to take a stake in SJM?" Chu Huan asked Zheng Jiachun.

Xiangjiang in 1975 was magnificent due to the auction of land in Tsim Sha Tsui East, the acquisition of Qingzhou Yingni, and the construction of a commercial center. At the same time, the business circle of Haojiang was also surging.

The most exciting of them is naturally the competition between He Hongshen and the gambling king Ye Han for the boss of the Haojiang gambling industry. At the beginning, Ye Han joined forces with He Hongshen, Ye Deli, and Huo Tsar to form the Haojiang Tourism and Entertainment Company, and competed with Haojiang Taixing for Haojiang. In the end, he overcame various difficulties and obtained the only gambling license in Haojiang.

Ye Han originally thought that he was the founder and should become the boss of Haojiang Tourism and Entertainment Company.

However, Ho Hongsun and Ye Deli are brother-in-law and old friends with Huo Tsar. As a result, Ho Hongsun got the support of the other two and took the top spot in Haojiang Tourism and Entertainment Company.

Ye Deli's thoughts were on his team and women, Huo Tsar's focus was on Xiangjiang and sports, so in Haojiang, it was Ye Han and He Hongshen who competed.

Last year, after many struggles, Ye Han realized that he was no match for He Hongshen in the company, so he chose to retire in desperation. However, he still wanted his son to join the company's board of directors, but He Hongshen refused.

Ye Han had the idea to sell his shares in Haojiang Tourism and Entertainment Company at that time, and Zheng Yutong was the best buyer.

One of the words that Zheng Yutong often talks about is: A small gamble can make you happy!

Zheng Jiachun shook his head and said, "My dad hasn't made a decision yet, but considering He Weng's relationship, it is estimated that Ye Han will not acquire the shares of Haojiang Tourism and Entertainment Company in the short term."

The relationship between Zheng Yutong and He Hongshen is quite good. He Hongshen's mansion in Xiangjiang is next to Zheng Yutong's mansion, and the two are also old friends.

However, Ye Han finally sold his shares in Haojiang Tourism and Entertainment Company to Zheng Yutong, but that was after the 1980s.

"By the way, how did Uncle Zheng and Li Zhaoji return to their hometown in Shunde last year?"

Chu Huan asked Zheng Jiachun again.

In December last year, Zheng Yutong and Li Zhaoji secretly returned to their hometown to worship their ancestors in Shunde!

"According to my father, the situation in my hometown is still not easy to say, and I don't know when it will return to normal!"

Zheng Jiachun obviously didn't want to mention this matter, so after finishing speaking, he asked Chu Huan.

"Stop talking about us all the time. How about you? You're going to get married in three more months. Do you feel anything?"

"That's right, among us, A Huan, you are the youngest, but you don't want to be the first to get married, tell me how it feels?"

Guo Bingxiang also asked curiously.

Chu Huan glanced at the two of them, and said, "What's there to say? It will happen when it happens, like the two of you? One has a fiancée but has never been approved by his family, and the other is afraid to even have a girlfriend. Tell me, my old man!"

Guo Bingxiang and Zheng Jiachun looked at each other. Guo Bingxiang took the lead and said, "That said I didn't agree. Didn't you see that I went there with Aying when the foundation stone of Zhulu Commercial Center was laid last year?"

After finishing speaking, Guo Bingxiang did not forget to dig a hole for Zheng Jiachun: "If you want to talk about this kind of thing, you have to talk about pure officials, that's really cowardly!"

When Zheng Jiachun heard that even Guo Bingxiang talked about himself, he immediately retorted: "I haven't met true love yet!"

"Hey!"

Chu Huan and Guo Bingxiang gave Zheng Jiachun an international gesture together!

Wealthy marriages are the most common thing, and so is Zheng Jiachun, but Zheng Jiachun's wealthy marriage is relatively low-key, and it is even rumored that he and his future wife are playing their own way, but they maintain their married life on the surface.

After separating from the two of them, Chu Huan took time to go to the company. Wu Shuhan was in the company, but Xu Yi was not.

"Where's Xu Yi?"

Chu Huan asked Wu Shuhan.

Wu Shuhan said: "The Chinese Bank has been rebuilt. Manager Xu has gone to the Chinese Bank to inspect. Now each company is decorating its own floors to ensure that each company can move in smoothly after the Chinese New Year!"

The reconstruction project of Huarenhang has also been completed. According to Chu Huan's request, it has become the tallest and most advanced commercial building in Xiangjiang. After the building is completed, the companies under Chu Huan's name will move their headquarters here. Black and White Media exception!

The Jiahu Building will be leased out as a property.

The relocation of the company will be a very important matter for the companies under Chu Huan's name, and the concentration of all the companies will also facilitate Chu Huan's centralized management.

"By the way, Boss, Mr. Li from Henderson Land Group called earlier to ask when you are free. He wants to meet with you!"

Wu Shuhan reported to Chu Huanhui.

Without meeting Li Zhaoji, Chu Huan knew what the other party wanted to say. At the end of last year, Li Zhaoji's Henderson Land Development acquired Xiangjiang's listed company Yongtai Jianye, which was regarded as a backdoor listing, but Li Zhaoji's ambition was obviously more than that. The idea is to list Henderson Land separately.

As the third largest shareholder of Henderson Land, Chu Huan may even become the second largest shareholder in the future. Li Zhaoji must discuss this matter with Chu Huan.

Chu Huan thought for a while, and said, "On the 7th, the vacation will be officially over by then, and then arrange for me to meet Li Sheng!"

Wu Shuhan nodded and said, "Okay, I will notify Li Sheng in a while!"

Seeing Wu Shuhan's serious look, Chu Huan said with a smile: "Don't push yourself too hard, the company has nothing to do now, if I don't come, you don't have to come either!"

Wu Shuhan hurriedly said: "It's okay, I have nothing to do at home anyway."

During the New Year's holiday, most of the company's employees are on vacation, but as Chu Huan's full-time secretaries, Xu Yi and Wu Shuhan don't have this kind of treatment. The two of them really took a break during the two days of New Year's Day, and then resumed work. Already working.

Not only do they have to deal with some things that the company didn't handle well last year, but they also have to prepare for the company's development this year. In addition, the two of them are also responsible for some matters at Chu Huan's wedding.

"And the boss, Mr. An from Nanlian Industrial also called to invite you to attend the annual meeting of the Federation of Hong Kong Industries on the 20th of this month!"

Mr. An, An Zijie, one of the founders of Nanlian Industrial, became the chairman of the Hong Kong Trade Development Bureau at the end of last year, and also the chairman of the Hong Kong Federation of Industries.

Chu Huan asked: "Didn't Mr. An step down as the chairman of the Federation of Industries last year?"

Wu Shuhan replied: "It is indeed the case, but it may be because you were the boss contacted by Mr. An last year, so this year is Mr. An?"

Chu Huan felt that it was not that simple. The Xiangjiang Industrial Federation was already similar to some official organizations. In such an organization, the division of factions was still very obvious.

But Chu Huan thought about it, and didn't care much about it. Last year, he even resigned from the position of the chairman of the Toy General Chamber of Commerce, because he didn't want to get too involved in this matter.

In the past, he needed such an identity to increase his influence, but now Chu Huan no longer needed it.

"Also, the secretary of Mr. Robert Roberts, Secretary of State, called. The first meeting of the Executive Council in the new year, boss, you have to attend!"

At the end of last year, Chu Huan was officially appointed by Hong Kong Governor MacLehose and became an unofficial member of the Hong Kong Administrative Bureau!

"I see, remind me when the time comes!" Chu Huan nodded slightly.

After reporting the work, Wu Shuhan continued to preach to Chu Huan.

"Boss, you and Ms. Cao's wedding company have already contacted President Fang of Heihei Media, and Xiang Entertainment, a subsidiary of Heihei Media, will be in charge of the arrangement of the venue at that time. Do you have any comments?"

Fangxiang Entertainment, a newly established company under Black and White Media, is mainly responsible for various concerts and events of the company's stars.

Chu Huan said: "Just discuss this matter with Aunt Zhou Meiqi, I don't have any opinions!"

The wedding between Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang, just like the engagement banquet before, has been fully taken care of by Cao Yunshang's mother, Zhou Meiqi.

"yes!"

I still have to adjust my schedule, I am too sleepy, I used to finish a chapter in two hours, but now it takes four or five hours, which is not normal, go to bed now, and try to change the schedule tomorrow, two more is not the norm, It's a leave of absence, the third shift is the norm, let me adjust my work and rest time, and then resume normal updates, and then there will be a chapter about repaying debts~
