Chapter 482: Celebration Party, New Business
After returning to Hong Kong, the Jockey Club helped Wang Yuanchao hold a grand celebratory reception, which was only open to internal members.

In any case, Wang Yuanchao is a director of the Jockey Club, and his promotion to KBE and becoming Sir Alex Ferguson is also an honor for the Jockey Club.

There are a lot of CBEs, OBEs and MBEs in the Jockey Club, but those with the title of Sir are rare, and there are even few KBEs, let alone GBEs.

How can we show the aristocratic temperament of the Jockey Club without celebrating?

Moreover, the Sha Tin Racecourse will be officially opened on March 3 this year, the day of the Dragon Raising its Head on the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar, and Governor Murray MacLehose will cut the ribbon to open it.

It is a double blessing for the Hong Kong Jockey Club.

Everyone felt both envy and sympathy for Lady Liu Qijin, one of the focal points of the group.

But on the surface, he still smiled and congratulated. In private, he was maintaining a balanced self-esteem, and those who understand will understand.

As for the protagonist Wang Yuanchao, he was extremely flattering.

Everyone in Hong Kong's upper circles knows that Wang Sheng is a playboy, with four wives and many confidantes. Moreover, Wang Sheng has unique tastes and does not care about age.

Therefore, those young ladies, and even some wives, were trying to get close to Wang Yuanchao in an attempt to win his favor.

In fact, even a little bit of money that slips through the fingers of this prince would be enough to help many small families rise to the top.

But these ladies and young ladies have neither natural beauty nor halo, nor emotional foundation. Even the families behind them cannot provide much help to Wang Yuanchao's career. He is really thinking too much.

If Wang Yuanchao wants to change his taste, he can just go into the entertainment industry. She is beautiful and has her own aura, and the cost is not high. He can even get it done with a few acting contracts. The cost-effectiveness is not too high.

At least it's much simpler than the relationships among the rich ladies and young ladies in the Jockey Club.

So Wang Yuanchao is just elegant and graceful, and his manners make people feel warm and gentlemanly, which makes people wonder if he is not interested in women but men.

After a round of social engagements, Shen Bi asked Wang Yuanchao to come to his place for tea in two days. Wang Yuanchao understood immediately that the God of Wealth had taken the initiative to call him.

The next day, at the HSBC headquarters, in the office of General Manager Shen Bi.

"Sir, congratulations to you once again!" Shen Bi said with a smile, his words full of envy.

Shen Bi only has the title of Justice of the Peace, not even the OBE title!
Wang Yuanchao said directly:

"I couldn't do without the support from Mr. Shen in the beginning. I value gratitude the most, and I really hope to do something for Mr. Shen."

Shen Bi felt a little better.

It has to be said that Wang Yuanchao never fails to visit him every year.

And it was not just a simple visit. He would always deposit his share of the money in advance at a Swiss bank. He had experienced the privacy of Swiss banks in Europe before. It was unparalleled. Unfortunately, HSBC could not provide that level of privacy.

Thanks to the strong relationship between the two parties over the years, he did want to introduce a business deal to Wang Yuanchao.

“We don’t say these polite words to each other.

You know, our HSBC headquarters building is too old and does not fit HSBC's current status and development. I acquired the Bank of China Building and launched a tender to all real estate companies in Hong Kong. I sincerely hope that your Pacific Industrial will win the bid."

When Wang Yuanchao heard this, he thought, wasn't this the battle for Li Chaoren to establish a strong relationship with HSBC boss Shen Bi, and have the strong support of HSBC?

Although Wang Yuanchao is worth tens of billions in Hong Kong and has a cash flow of more than 10 billion (he cashed out a lot during the stock market crash, but later slowly repurchased shares of his companies and bought bottoms of other stocks with depressed prices), he is still no match for HSBC, the local emperor of Hong Kong.

He immediately said:

"Don't worry, Boss. Even if we don't make any money, we can use it to build the new HSBC Building for you. I can invite a top-notch designer from the United States!"

Shen Bi tilted his head to one side, pretending to be angry, and said:

"Look, look, I knew you would think so.

We have been friends for many years, how can I let you do business at a loss?

Don't worry, I am also very loyal to my friends. How could I let my friends suffer?

A friendship that causes others to suffer losses cannot last long! "

Shen Bi's words were somewhat meaningful. He looked at Wang Yuanchao and continued:

“So I’m going to invite you over for tea.

The building plan is bold in design and fast in construction. If work needs to be rushed, it should be rushed.

HSBC needs the building to be completed quickly and well, can it be done?"

How could Wang Yuanchao not understand what was said? If Wang Yuanchao did not make money, how could Shen Bi gain friendship from him?
The two of them are not Shen Bi and Li Ka-shing from different time and space. They need to establish a trustworthy relationship by not making money at the beginning. Wang Yuanchao has maintained the relationship for so many years, and the two have fully understood and trusted each other.

Swiss banks can attest that this friendship lasts forever.

Wang Yuanchao smiled and said:
"It seems that the boss, like me, values ​​friendship very much and would not bear to see his friends suffer."

Shen Bi saw that Wang Yuanchao understood what he meant and said:
"Of course. The new building cost hundreds of millions of dollars. If Pacific Bank doesn't make money, who will cooperate with HSBC in the future?"

After the deal was finalized, Wang Yuanchao naturally instructed Pacific Industrial to come up with the most sincere proposal to bid.

After the celebratory reception at the Jockey Club, Wang Yuanchao booked a nightclub under the Pacific Building to hold a celebratory reception, inviting the management and backbone personnel of his companies, relatives and friends to gather together.

The protagonists of this cocktail party were undoubtedly Wang Yuanchao and his wife. They were like the king and queen, surrounded by the crowd.

Nearly a thousand people present all relied on them to achieve their careers. The wives and confidantes were also there. Those with official titles were called concubines, and those without official titles were not underestimated.

Subordinates know their boss’s preferences much better than those in upper circles.

Led by the heads of each company, teams came to toast.

Liu Qijin only tasted a little, but Wang Yuanchao accepted everything that was offered to him and worked hard with great enthusiasm.

The most active ones are the core backbones of the entertainment industry.

Or to put it this way, as long as you are beautiful, you are the core backbone.

What if the big boss takes a fancy to you?

Li Hanxiang, how comfortable is he now because he helped the big boss and the third wife? When he slept with the other's wife and was slapped by her husband, it was not reported in the newspapers, but was suppressed by the big boss.

Gao Yuan is a veteran movie star of Starlight Films. Because his ex-girlfriend, Lydia, is the mistress of Boss Wang, no one knows whether Boss Wang has a Cao Mengde mentality, so he is very polite to Gao Yuan, a fellow film star.

If this guy hadn't been so hot-headed and unwilling to listen to advice when he was speculating in stocks, he would have been a millionaire long ago! He could even be a multimillionaire.

At least last year, in the popular "The Return of the Condor Heroes" in Hong Kong and even Southeast Asia, Boss Wang even designated Gao Yuan to play the important role of Guo Jing! This instantly raised Gao Yuan's precarious position.

The second wife of the big boss is also very old. I heard that she knew the boss the earliest. They don’t know any other information.

Lou Xiao'e was not only the first to know Wang Yuanchao, but also the first to move her belongings to him when Wang Yuanchao had nothing! When he left the mainland, he even gave him all the unused banknotes and bills, an apartment, and a courtyard house.

As long as the Lou family doesn't go too far outside, Wang Yuanchao will not bother with the two brothers-in-law of the Lou family for Lou Xiao'e's sake.

However, although Lou Zhenhua, the old man of the Lou family, was lustful and playboyish, he was also clear-headed and was very clear about educating his two sons.

Executives and key personnel of various companies drool with envy at the beautiful girls in the film, television and media industries.

They also have beautiful executives and front desk staff, but they are not up to par. Those little vases are not suitable for this occasion!
This problem does not exist in the entertainment industry. If you are pretty, you can show your face on TV or in a movie and immediately become famous. You can become a little star and appear here.

Everyone who understands this will understand the ins and outs.

They can only help the boss make money with great difficulty, but those people, who help the boss make far less money than they do, seem much closer to him than them!
And he is more capable than them.

——Just like those people in the company who can only make PPTs——if these industrial practitioners knew this sentence.

They did not dare to complain to the industrial leaders, because these leaders and the big boss had life-and-death friendships and had worked together to build the empire early on. This was not comparable to them joining in halfway.

But even here, Wang Yuanchao behaved appropriately.

Doesn't Wang Yuanchao have any dignity by being so flirtatious with other women in front of his family, subordinates, relatives and friends?
If any woman is stupid enough to flirt with Wang Yuanchao, she will probably be taken care of by others without Wang Yuanchao having to do anything.

It was not easy to show up in front of Boss Wang. If Boss Wang was interested, he would naturally express himself.

So, does Wang Yuanchao have it?

Unfortunately, no.

Although Wang Yuanchao is lustful, he is not a stud who will seduce anyone he sees.

He didn't even go up to Zhao Yazhi!

But when I see Zhao Yazhi again now, I find that she is much more mature and beautiful than when she participated in the beauty pageant.

The older this woman gets, the more beautiful and charming she becomes.

……

After the cocktail parties, the official opening ceremony of Sha Tin Racecourse will be held.

Governor Murray MacLehose presided over the unveiling and performed a ribbon-cutting ceremony on the grass track. Wang Yuanchao, as a director of the Jockey Club's Board of Directors, was also one of the guests who cut the ribbon.

The grandstand on one side of the racecourse can accommodate 35000 spectators and is much more grand than the racecourse in Happy Valley on Hong Kong Island.

Not only that, there is also a large piece of land owned by Wang Yuanchao next to it.

The land was filled in a long time ago, but it has never been developed.

Wang Yuanchao is also hoarding land. The rate of increase in housing prices is far slower than the rate of increase in land prices.

For example, now that the Sha Tin Racecourse has been completed, the price of the land next to it is going to appreciate significantly, right?

Not only is there Sha Tin Racecourse, but also Hong Kong’s first rail transit, the East Rail Line.

The original railway was from Kowloon to Guangzhou, which was completed and opened to traffic in 1910.

Decades later, in order to coincide with the completion of Sha Tin Racecourse, the Kowloon-Canton Railway (British Section) started the double-track laying, electrification and station modernization projects last year. The old Kowloon Station Building was demolished, leaving only the clock tower as a landmark of Hong Kong. On March 3 this year, the Kowloon-Canton Railway (British Section) Racecourse Station was opened to coincide with the opening of Sha Tin Racecourse.

However, the racecourse station is only open when there are races or special events at Sha Tin Racecourse.

But as long as the surrounding area is developed and the population increases, it is only a matter of time before it becomes a regular station.

Wang Yuanchao’s land can wait.

On the afternoon of March 3, the first race was held at Sha Tin Racecourse, announcing the official opening of the Jockey Club’s second racecourse.
