Reborn since 1993

Chapter 424 A moth flies into the flame
Everyone in Dongling Hi-Tech was still busy, and Li Dongling rushed to the provincial capital Xiyuan, took a plane from the provincial capital to Pengcheng, and then rushed to the port city.

Li Dongling felt that it was time to purchase a private business jet, which would make traveling more convenient and he wouldn't have to go to the provincial capital to wait for flights every time. Not only Li Dongling, but also the senior executives of Dongling Hi-Tech needed to fly all over the country and even overseas.

Now the country has its first private jet. It is Zhang Yue from the Xiangnan Yuanda Group, whom Li Dongling met when he was in Yanjing before. He has just purchased a Cessna private jet and became the first person in the country to own a private jet!
Many domestic media outlets reported this incident extensively, and as a result, the popularity of Zhang Yue's Yuanda Company soared significantly.

As for Hong Kong, many wealthy people own their own private jets, and they fly to Southeast Asia, Europe, America and other places.

At the moment, Hong Kong is the most extravagant place in Asia. Except for the fact that the luxury houses have shrunk a little, they are not as large as the manors and mansions where the old white rich people in old Europe live. The rest of the things, such as sports cars, private jets, helicopters, yachts, racehorses, etc. are all available and even more luxurious.

After getting on the plane, Li Dongling looked at several documents in his hand. Last night, Yang Bohua called him and basically agreed to the conditions proposed by Li Dongling.

This also means that Dongling Hi-Tech's acquisition of Gangcheng Telecom has received support in China.

However, this is not something you should be impatient about. If you are impatient, not only will you not be able to get the best deal, you may also be tricked by the other party.

The British withdrawal from Hong Kong City is a foregone conclusion. The later they withdraw, the more disadvantageous it will be for them. It is not just Dongling Hi-Tech that is anxious.

……

Several sports cars drove up to the entrance of a star-rated hotel in Hong Kong City. A man in his thirties got out of one of the cars. After getting out, he casually handed the keys of the sports car to the parking attendant who had been waiting on the side.

With a raise of her hand, a young female star who had recently debuted in the Hong Kong entertainment circle got out of the car and leaned into the man's arms. Her movements were smooth and flowing, and she expressed the words "rich, wealthy, and suave" to the fullest.

"Brother Zhao, after afternoon tea, do you want to go to the racecourse and let us see your new horse?"

"Let's go on a yacht. I just got a new yacht yesterday. I'm going to take a few models and little stars out for a cruise!"

As soon as Zhao Shinan hugged the little celebrity, several people surrounded him. These people were all from wealthy families in Hong Kong. Their families ran grain and oil companies, shipping companies, spinning mills, gambling companies, construction companies, etc. Although they were not giant companies in Hong Kong, their family financial conditions were quite good, and the valuations of their family companies were all over tens of millions.

Everyone was talking to Zhao Shinan at once. After hearing this, Zhao Shinan just laughed and said, "Tonight, I have to attend a cocktail party hosted by Mr. Liang of Peregrine. People from Citibank, HSBC, and some big families in Hong Kong will be attending. It's not easy for me to get away!"

"Is it Liang Botao, the president of Peregrine Investment Bank?"

When they heard Zhao Shinan mention Peregrine, the people around him couldn't help but show looks of surprise on their faces.

Peregrine is currently the largest investment group in Hong Kong and was founded by Chinese. It is the largest investment group in Asia except for Nippon Benzene, with multiple businesses including financing, investment, securities, futures, foreign exchange, etc. It currently manages funds of more than HK$240 billion.

Rumor has it that many well-known figures in Hong Kong, including the Cheung Kong Li family, the Henderson Land Li family, the Guo family, and a large number of wealthy people from Hong Kong, Singapore, and Malaysia, have given their money to Peregrine for investment, and Peregrine can make huge profits for its sponsors every year!

In addition, all the mainland companies that were previously listed in Hong Kong, including Soitong and Lenovo, were managed by Peregrine, so one can imagine how great its influence is.

Many media outlets now compare Peregrine with Hang Seng Bank, the largest bank in Hong Kong, which was also founded by Chinese. I don't know if this kind of flattery is meant to flatter Peregrine or is full of malice. After all, Hang Seng Bank, once the most famous and powerful Chinese bank in Hong Kong and even Southeast Asia, was swallowed up by HSBC. Comparing Peregrine with Hang Seng Bank is worth a closer look.

Peregrine has made its two founders, Liang Botao and British man William Du, guests of honor in Hong Kong's celebrity circle. Many of Hong Kong's wealthy and famous people want to take advantage of Peregrine and invest their money in Peregrine to get huge returns every year.

The cocktail party hosted by Liang Botao, the president of Peregrine, was of the utmost class and status in Hong Kong. Those who were invited to attend were all well-known figures in Hong Kong!
Among the people around Zhao Shinan, not to mention them, even their fathers are not qualified to attend such a cocktail party hosted by Liang Botao.

How could they not be envious of Zhao Shinan for being able to attend and meet those big shots, and even to have connections with several wealthy families in Hong Kong?

The young actress who had just debuted and had not yet acted in a movie or TV series, leaning on Zhao Shinan's arms, looked at Zhao Shinan with shining eyes. It seemed that Zhao Shinan was not so stingy anymore...

Except for some of them, the rest of the famous actresses and models in Hong Kong are very keen on marrying into wealthy families. Although the media in Hong Kong are so keen on celebrity gossip, from the wealthy to the ordinary society, there is no fanatical adulation for celebrities. They just regard it as a profession. Even in the eyes of the wealthy, actresses are just actors...

No matter how famous a female star is, she is still an actress. Nowadays, even famous female stars don't actually have very high incomes. Even for established female stars, according to rich men, the cost of dating them is only 500,000 Hong Kong dollars a month.

But marrying into a wealthy family is completely different. Not to mention your net worth, your fame and social status will also be greatly improved. It is almost a completely different life from being an actor.

As for the young actress who is with Zhao Shinan now, the reason why she is with Zhao Shinan is because she has just debuted and the expenses are very high. With her sporadic schedule, apart from appearing in magazines a few times, it is still unknown when she will become famous. Maybe she can get some resources by relying on Zhao Shinan.

In the month she was with Zhao Shinan, he only gave her a bag worth tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars. The car he promised to give her was still a long way off. But when Zhao Shinan took her to a hotel, he was willing to book a top-notch suite just for her comfort in bed...

"With the strength of Brother Zhao's family, isn't it normal for them to attend Liang Botao's cocktail party?!"

"Brother Zhao, when you become rich in the future, don't forget to help us!"

Several people were talking at once, complimenting Zhao Shinan. Zhao Shinan's ancestors were from rubber plantations in Southeast Asia, and later moved to Hong Kong City. However, the Zhao family had many children, and Zhao Shinan was not the eldest son in the family.

After returning from studying in England, Zhao Shinan started a construction company and a leasing business. Recently, his net worth has grown rapidly thanks to stock market investments. In addition, he is a playboy and changes women faster than he changes clothes. He often appears in gossip and entertainment magazines, and has gained some fame in Hong Kong. Although he has dated many women, their opinions of him are not very good.

A young female star who had dated Zhao Shinan once complained to a gossip magazine that Zhao Shinan was very stingy and seldom spent money on women. Even if he gave them jewelry, brand-name bags, etc., he would take them back after breaking up, claiming they were heirlooms or other reasons. In order to prevent being calculated, he firmly disagreed with the women he dated to have his children.

Every time a young actress breaks up with Zhao Shinan, there is basically a big fuss, but there is always a desire to marry into a wealthy family, fantasizing that she can win Zhao Shinan's heart, so there are still women who keep throwing themselves at him like moths to a flame, so there is never a lack of women around Zhao Shinan...

As Zhao Shinan was walking towards the hotel surrounded by a crowd of people, one of them suddenly said to him, "Brother Zhao, that is not Ning Wenke from the Ning family. She rejected your invitation before..."

At this time, Zhao Shinan also saw Ning Wenke, who was obviously dressed up, standing at the entrance of the hotel. Zhao Shinan's face changed slightly, and then he let go of the little actress in his arms. Ignoring the pouting little actress, he smoothed his waxed hair and walked towards Ning Wenke.
