The early morning sunlight shines through the curtains into Chen Hongtao's bedroom on the 129th floor of the Pearl Tower.
Lin Lan, who had been tortured for half a night, woke up early even though her body was weak.
Seeing that Chen Hongtao was still sleeping quietly, Lin Lan couldn't help lazily squeezing into his arms, feeling Chen Hongtao's warm and powerful masculine aura.
The European style of the bedroom is extremely luxurious, quiet and extremely comfortable at the same time.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Chen Hongtao asked softly without opening his eyes when he noticed the plump and graceful woman in his arms moving.
"When you first came to Hong Kong, it was inevitable that people would notice you. I stayed here last night and I didn't know what kind of rumors there would be." Lin Lan, whose smooth and straight buttocks were being caressed by Chen Hongtao, had a seductive light on her pretty face. road.
Chen Hongtao smiled slightly and hugged the plump young woman closer: "This Pearl Tower has more than 130 floors, how can outsiders be sure that you will sleep with me."
"You're not serious. A guy like you, who has a reputation for bad life, is enough to make people guess, but why do you need to see it with your own eyes?" Lin Lan jiao shook Chen Hongtao's hands that were rubbing her breasts away. .
"Those are all slanderous rumors about me." Chen Hongtao turned around with his arms around the beautiful young woman. His lower body had slowly and forcefully penetrated the gap in the woman's peach garden.
Lin Lan was panting deeply, her plump body suddenly tightened, and her arms tightly wrapped around Chen Hongtao's neck for a while. Then she took a breath amidst the bursts of soreness and swelling, and hit him with a show fist. He said: "I don't know how to cherish the fragrance and cherish the jade at all, my body is about to be tortured by you"
Before Lin Lan could finish his words, Chen Hongtao began to gasp gently as he galloped around in high spirits.
Suddenly, the bedroom was filled with spring
Chen Hongtao, who was enjoying his happy time at this time, didn't know that Winnie, who had arrived at the Pearl Tower early in the morning, no longer looked very good-looking, and the look she was looking at Eve was even more vaguely angry.
"What time is it? Why isn't your boss up yet?" Winnie was sitting in the reception room of the Pearl Building. Unable to bear it, she asked Eve.
Eve, who knew very well about the strange relationship between Chen Hongtao and Winnie, could only apologize: "Last night, the boss went to Temple Street, and he was delayed for a while when he came back. It was already late when he went to bed!"
¡°I heard that the chief executive¡¯s secretary Lin Lan stayed at the Pearl Tower last night and did not leave. Is there such a thing?¡± Winnie asked with a slight frown.
Facing Winnie¡¯s question. Eve could only nod helplessly: "Secretary Lin came over to discuss things with the boss. I just stayed here by the way"
"Winnie, how about we come here another day? The Hang Seng Index will open in a while, why don't you go to the Stock Exchange?" Pei'er whispered to Winnie.
"Aren't you worried about things in Singapore?" Winnie seemed unwilling to leave.
Pei'er hesitated slightly: "Actually, just follow the original plan. Although we hold a lot of shares in Singapore Political Investment and Temasek Holdings. However, due to the obstacles of the Singapore government, it is difficult to completely privatize these two companies. Even if The financial turmoil has impacted Singapore's economy, so we can only try to collect as much equity as possible in other valuable companies."
"If we cannot completely privatize Singapore Political Investment and Temasek Holdings, the financial turmoil will cause us great losses. The Singapore government has not stopped fighting against our equity over the years, and I am afraid it is not an option if this continues." Winnie Take a deep breath to adjust your mentality.
"In order to limit our income and power, the Singapore government's equity struggle has indeed gradually slowed us down. If it weren't for the political pressure from the United States, the situation would have become increasingly pessimistic." Pei'er looked serious. stand up.
¡¡¡¡
At noon, Lin Lan, whose beautiful eyes were filled with moist spring, got up from the large bed with difficulty and soft body.
Listening to the sound of the woman getting dressed. Chen Hongtao also sat up, admiring the woman's voluptuous figure and the alluring spring light exuded by her clothes.
Lin Lan was so embarrassed that Chen Hongtao looked at her with a smile. She hurriedly put on the elastic waist chiffon dress that the maid had prepared in advance.
"If you don't want to get up yet, help you get dressed so I can go" Lin Lan spat with a rosy face and pulled Chen Hongtao.
Chen Hongtao smiled lazily: "This building is similar to home. Just wear a nightgown, it is comfortable and convenient."
Helping Chen Hongtao put on his shirt and fasten the diamond buttons, Lin Lan couldn't help but smile and praise: "This looks so capitalist!"
"Actually, it doesn't matter what you wear. Just feel comfortable." Chen Hongtao smiled casually, looking like a careless man.
 "Stop making trouble. We have everything. How are you going to deal with Teng Yaodong and Zheng Bihua?" Lin Lan rolled her eyes at Chen Hongtao and said.
Chen Hongtao grinned: "It's all his own business, and it can't spread. Killing them doesn't count as ostentation. There's no need to care too much."
Lin Lan, whose pretty face was kissed by Chen Hongtao, was charming and shy: "When are you leaving? For a bastard like you, it would be better to bring trouble to the United States. You are not welcome here."
Chen Hongtao hugged Lin Lan and smiled: "When you invited me before, you were not so unwelcoming. Now that I don't want to be the one who takes advantage of you, I can change my attitude really quickly!"
"Do you want to say hello to the chiefs in China? You have just arrived in Hong Kong and will be leaving soon. I'm afraid the chiefs will be unhappy." Lin Lan reminded Chen Hongtao.
Chen Hongtao smiled unceremoniously and said: "I don't want to live by looking at other people's faces. Besides, I believe those old men know something about this and can occupy a high position. They are smart."
After serving Chen Hongtao to get dressed, Lin Lan struggled to get rid of his embrace with a smile: "There are a lot of things to do today, and I don't have time to hang around with you, an idler. You can have lunch by yourself."
"Don't you want to take a shower?" Chen Hongtao teased the young woman.
"You are shameless, don't pity people at all, and are just a bad guy who uses force. I guess there is nothing you dare not do." Lin Lan put on her high heels and walked out of the bedroom with a gust of fragrance.
It was not until Lin Lan left that Chen Hongtao stretched out comfortably, yawned and walked out.
"Boss, several groups of customers have already arrived early in the morning. Xie Xiankun and Liu Yiqiu have been waiting for you all morning." Eve, who was guarding the floor to prevent trespassing, reminded Chen Hongtao.
Chen Hongtao nodded slightly: "Place lunch in the rest area, bring Xie Xiankun and Liu Yiqiu over, and help Secretary Lin move around. I think the position of Director of the Chief Executive's Office is good, and it is different from domestic officialdom. In Hong Kong's system, the appointment of officials , much depends on the support of well-established figures in the political and business circles.¡±
Hearing Chen Hongtao¡¯s instructions, Eve responded sternly: ¡°I will properly help clear the situation.¡±
Not long after Chen Hongtao arrived at the rest area, the waitress in the restaurant had already started serving food. I saw Chen Hongtao eating prawns almost every bite. With a good mood and a good appetite, Liu Yiqiu, who was next to Xie Xiankun, breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's sit down and eat together. You have been following me for a long time. There is no need to be so polite." Chen Hongtao said with a smile.
Liu Yiqiu naturally heard about Chen Hongtao's severe punishment of Teng Yaodong and Zheng Bihua last night, and was unavoidably uneasy in his heart.
After all, Teng Yaodong is also an old man who follows Chen Hongtao. Since Chen Hongtao did not go to the United States, he has been working as a manager in the domestic Pearl Group. He is getting older now, but even so, Chen Hongtao has no intention of being soft on him. How can this make Liu Yiqiu not nervous.
"Boss, good medicinal materials have become increasingly difficult to find in recent years, and ice marrow and elixirs have become less and less available. We have really tried our best!" Liu Yiqiu said to Chen Hongtao anxiously.
Chen Hongtao took a sip of red wine and said with a smile: "If this situation continues, I believe that in a few years, all the markets that trade cultivation items will disappear. Since you can't find good things, you two don't have to work hard to come here. Now that you¡¯re gone, just take care of the affairs of Green Ocean Fisheries and Tianhua Island.¡±
"Boss~~~Although it is difficult, we will definitely try our best. Please be patient and give us some more time" Liu Yiqiu said with some fear.
Chen Hongtao raised his hand and smiled comfortingly. Interrupting Liu Yiqiu's words: "I'm not blaming you. It's indeed dangerous and hard for you to run around these years. But since the environment is not good now. You can't force it. Instead of continuing to waste your energy on meaningless searches, it's better to do more Focus on your current family business."
"Why did the boss suddenly change his mind?" Xie Xiankun asked Chen Hongtao keenly.
Chen Hongtao was cutting the steak leisurely. On the surface, he didn't seem to be in a hurry to eat, but the elegant eating movements of his hands were not idle, and he ate a lot.
"Yesterday afternoon Bishop Aldrich of the Holy Alliance found me and wanted to talk to me about ambergris. What do you think?" Chen Hongtao asked Xie Xiankun with a smile.
Xie Xiankun obviously didn't know about it in advance. He seemed a little surprised when he heard what Chen Hongtao said: "The Holy Alliance used to be composed of lonely practitioners. It was very weak and invisible. However, in recent years, it seems that in order to survive, the Holy Alliance The alliance has also begun to recruit some well-known people in the political and business circles. Although the nature of the alliance has gradually changed, it is much stronger than before."
Feeling the reminder from Xie Xiankun, Chen Hongtao said calmly:?: "Since they have focused on the matter of the Ambergris Fruit, I believe they will not let it go easily. If the people from the Holy Alliance come back in the future, it will be up to you two to deal with those guys. There is just one thing. In this matter I won't make any concessions."
"I understand what the boss means. I will handle this matter carefully. Even if they refuse to let go, it won't be a big problem. At the same time, I will pay more attention to the movements of the Holy Alliance." Xie Xiankun gave Chen Hongtao a serious answer. respond.
"In the future, if we don't want to participate, we should try to have as little contact with these cultivators as possible, and just live your own lives quietly. If you two have other ideas, just tell me directly." Chen Hongtao glanced at Liu Yiqiu and said.
At this time, Liu Yiqiu was already a serious woman. Although she was graceful and beautiful, it was still difficult to resist the passage of nine years.
"I haven't made any progress in these years. I have given up long ago. It would be good to live a more comfortable life. Boss, please don't worry." Liu Yiqiu said calmly.
Chen Hongtao put down his knife and fork and said with a smile: "Even in ten or eight years, everyone will still be young and still have a long time to enjoy. Just like Jinlan and the others, their lives will be fine."
"How dare I compare with Madam and the others? This time I went back and saw that Madam and the others look very good, so the boss can feel relieved." Liu Yiqiu said with a low-key smile.
"Haha~~~ Indeed, Jinlan and the others have been able to take care of themselves so well over the years, and you have contributed a lot to it. Because of the long-term use of the ice marrow that strengthens the foundation and the essence of the body, as well as the mild and spiritual nature of the medicine, the effects have begun to show. You guys have to rest. Rest, I don't have to worry too much about wandering around." Chen Hongtao said with a grateful smile.
"The days are getting better and better. From now on, Liu Yiqiu and I will be in charge of the affairs of Ocean Fishery Company and Tianhua Island. We can really take our time more leisurely." Xie Xiankun said with an implicit smile.
It wasn¡¯t until Liu Yiqiu left that Xie Xiankun¡¯s address to Chen Hongtao changed: ¡°Master, I wonder if someone from the Holy Alliance came to visit, could it be related to Amy?¡±
"Amy has been quieting down in recent years, so it should have nothing to do with her. The Green family runs this strange business of offshore fisheries. It's not just a day or two, and people will definitely pay attention to it, but I guess the Holy Alliance waited until this time to find them. There must have been some changes." Chen Hongtao smiled very calmly.
"Young master, what you mean is that someone has made a breakthrough in their understanding of ambergris?" Xie Xiankun keenly guessed the connection.
"In the past, Ambergris grapes had no use. Even if they were magical, they were a bit useless. As far as I know. Amy has not given up experimenting and exploring the grape fruits. Unfortunately, there have been no good results. However, the Holy Alliance After all, there are some differences, and it is not known that the life essence of such a heterogeneous species as ambergris can be effectively utilized." Chen Hongtao said with a joking smile.
Xie Xiankun thought for a long time: "Looking at this situation, things will most likely get worse. We must be prepared."
"It's natural. If it doesn't work, you can stop the offshore fishery first. The reason why the Green Group's offshore fishery has not had any problems for so many years is partly because of its strong strength. But more importantly, it is good at judging the situation. It doesn't matter how strong you are. The way to survive in the long run is to be relaxed and relaxed." Chen Hongtao wiped his mouth, stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.
"Master, I have been curious for so many years. What benefits can this ambergris fruit bring to you" Xie Xiankun looked at Chen Hongtao hesitantly.
Chen Hongtao did not look back, and the smile on his face showed a cheerful feeling: "It has some effects, but it is not as exaggerated as you think. For me, this kind of thing is just like a spice in life, just like some Rich women don't do yoga all the time. It's just a part of life."
"If the benefits really are not great, it would not be a pity to stop the offshore fishery for a period of time when necessary. I will pay attention to external trends and discuss with the young master to make adjustments." Xie Xiankun said Very solemn.
"Go." Chen Hongtao smiled casually and signaled to Xie Xiankun that he could leave.
When Eve came in with her maid to clean up, she approached Chen Hongtao and whispered: "Winnie and Miss Pei'er haven't left yet. Do you want to meet me, boss?"
"Ask someone to go to my office." Chen Hongtao said with a helpless smile.
In the spacious office, the trend of the Hang Seng Index on the large electronic screen has already entered the afternoon running stage.
After yesterday¡¯s decline, the Hang Seng Index continued to fall as soon as it opened today, and there was no improvement until the afternoon.
"However, compared to the noisy Stock Exchange, Chen Hongtao's office is very quiet, and he does not feel the gloomy and panic atmosphere caused by the stock market decline.
Seeing Chen Hongtao¡¯s springy smile, he warmlyInstead, Pei'er was angry and said nothing, while Pei'er chatted with Chen Hongtao.
Although Chen Hongtao has not seen this shareholder of UBS for a long time, he is no stranger to him.
As early as the collapse of the Japanese economic bubble in the late 1980s, the fleet cluster headed by Lin Hua Investment was almost wiped out. Even Nicole went bankrupt. It took a long time to rely on Marshall to regroup, but it was equally important. Pei'er, an investor, persevered, which made Chen Hongtao look at the heir of the Medici family in a different light.
Nine years has not been a short time, and when we met again, Pei'er did not mention the heavy hit in the Japanese financial market. The smile on her face remained gentle, as if the setback in Japan had never happened.
"Chen, I thought you would continue to leave the market today, which made me worry for a long time." Pei'er sipped her coffee and smiled.
Chen Hongtao smiled slightly: "Idle people like me don't have that much influence, not to mention that the banking system of Pearl Holdings no longer has the capacity to carry funds."
"Without Pearl Holdings, institutions such as TECO Investment and Tomahawk Investment cannot be underestimated. Over the years, the generals of Pearl Holdings' self-operated department have all gained considerable power in the capital market. This Now that a group of international speculators are putting pressure on the Hong Kong financial market, I am actually very worried. If my guess is correct, you should have made some guarantees to the Chinese and Hong Kong governments, right?" Pei'er didn't hide anything and smiled at Chen Hongtao. asked.
"Indeed, some things are really difficult to push back. After all, the roots of our Chen family are in China, just like your Medici family is in Italy. I promised the government to strive to maintain the order of the currency market and make Hong Kong's economy Let¡¯s make a soft landing and get through the difficulties.¡± Chen Hongtao took the cigar cut by Pei¡¯er and lit it with a smile.
"If the currency market cannot be shaken, even if we have an advantage in the stock market and futures market, it will be of no use. Are you asking us to give up in spite of the difficulties?" Pei'er smiled slightly bitterly.
"Asia's feast is huge. In fact, the most important ones are South Korea, Japan and Russia. Speaking of which, you have also received a lot of benefits in Hong Kong, so why bother to break the linked exchange rate and keep pressing? In the stock market and futures, The Hong Kong market has become your ATM, and even at this moment, you are making huge profits in the currency market. I think you should accept it when it is good, and only those who are content will always be happy." Chen Hongtao said with a deep smile.
