Rebirth of Hong Kong Island, leading the technology war

Chapter 437 The feeling of vacation is finally here

After a while, Hu Jiangshan said goodbye to his uncle Hu Pingyang and came to the office building.

Hu Pingyang had to attend a meeting with people from Guoxun Electronics soon, and originally wanted to ask his beloved daughter Hu Mingqian to send him off, but Hu Jiangshan waved his hand and declined, saying that there was no need at all.

Hu Pingyang asked a staff member to bring Hu Jiangshan down. She should be an administrative staff member, a lady named Yao Sulin, who came from Hong Kong Island.

Yao Sulin wants to take Hu Jiangshan to pick up the car.

Yao Sulin said, "The car is in the parking lot. I'll take you there."

Hu Jiangshan nodded.

It was already afternoon, and Tyrande's sun was still quite strong.

Although Hong Kong Island is also very sunny, the intensity of the sun is nothing compared to here. If you stay in an open area for a few minutes, you will soon be sweating profusely.

The staff member brought Hu Jiangshan to the front of the car and was stunned when he saw it. It turned out to be a Ford SUV. It was quite large and very tough.

Wudangshan laughed. No wonder his second uncle said he would give him a good car to drive. This kind of car is indeed very popular in Tyrande, and everyone thinks it is powerful and domineering.

It’s not good to have a car that is too big, especially since it is inconvenient to turn around in narrow places.

Fortunately, what Hu Pingyang prepared for Hu Jiangshan was not Ford's oversized pickup truck, otherwise he would have really driven it as a truck.

Of course, Teland’s best-selling cars are still Japanese ones. After all, they are fuel-efficient, durable, and have a large number of owners.

The cars from the Lighthouse Country brand are just so-so, the prices are higher, and the brand appears to be more high-end than Japanese cars.

Hu Jiangshan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll drive it for a few days. By the way, is this car fully insured?"

Yao Sulin nodded: "Mr. Hu, you can drive with confidence. This car is fully insured, so there will be no problem even if there is an accident. The boss said that you can drive this car at any time, no matter how long it takes."

Hu Jiangshan nodded and thanked him.

It's really convenient to have a rich relative in Tyrande.

Having said that, Hu Jiangshan's original body often came to Tailand in the past, but rarely met Hu Pingyang's family, let alone borrowed his car.

To put it bluntly, Hu Jiangshan and his uncle Hu Pingyang were quite distant from each other before.

It is indeed much better now, and also because Hu Jiangshan has changed so much, Hu Pingyang's whole family has a greatly changed impression of him.

More importantly, Hu Jiangshan helped Hu Pingyang a lot, or even a huge favor, by successfully resolving the crisis of production line shutdown. Hu Pingyang's whole family has to thank Hu Jiangshan, and they will probably become closer in the future.

The Hu family's Hezhong Group actually has business in Thailand, but it has only set up a very small office and can provide limited support to Hu Jiangshan, so the role of uncle Hu Pingyang comes into play.

Yao Sulin added: "By the way, the boss also asked me to give this to you."

As she spoke, Yao Sulin handed an envelope to Hu Jiangshan.

Guo Jiangshan was stunned and wondered what this thing was.

It can't be money, right?
No, that shouldn’t be the case. Uncle wouldn’t be so tacky.

Is it necessary to give money to relatives when they do you a favor? It would be too polite if you really did that.

Yao Sulin said, "Mr. Hu, this is the key to the house. It also contains the address. If you know the address, you can drive there directly. If you don't know the way, I can ask someone to take you there to find out where to go."

When Hu Jiangshan heard this, he suddenly realized: "Ah, house? No need, I can just stay in a hotel."

"Mr. Hu, this is something the boss specifically told me to do. Don't worry. This house is in downtown Guman. It's easy to find, and the transportation is convenient. It's not far from the night market, and it's a good place to live. It's much more comfortable than a hotel."

Hu Jiangshan nodded and no longer refused.

It seems that my second uncle has considered things very carefully.

"Okay, I can go there by myself."

"Can you find the way?"

"I can find it. If that doesn't work, I can use navigation. I've been to Guman many times, so I'm quite familiar with it."

Yao Sulin was still a little worried, so she and Hu Jiangshan added each other as friends on a certain messaging app so they could contact each other if anything happened.

After Yao Sulin left, Hu Jiangshan got into the mighty Ford SUV in front of him.

I have to say, this car is really good. Although the interior is not that luxurious, it is very textured and rugged.

Although Hu Jiangshan appears to be gentle and refined, he actually quite likes rough design styles.

Moreover, this Ford car is obviously a high-end model. In this era, it has everything it should have and is quite complete.

Of course, for Hu Jiangshan, who has lived two lives, this traditional gasoline car is simply too backward.

At this time, the three new forces in the mainland, namely NIO, Xiaopeng and Li Auto, have emerged. Tesla's electric cars are also in their heyday, and its super factory in China has started production. However, the momentum of electric cars is still insignificant compared with the next few years, and gasoline cars still dominate the market.

In a few years, electric vehicles will become very popular in mainland China, and their market share will soon surpass that of traditional gasoline vehicles.

Not to mention the smart driving that is unique to electric vehicles, the car computer system of gasoline vehicles is very simple, and even the navigation is unclear, leaving Hu Jiangshan speechless.

Hong Kong Island driver's license can also be used in Thailand.

Tyrande uses a right-hand drive car, but so does Hong Kong Island, so for Hu Jiangshan, it is a seamless connection.

Hu Jiangshan started the engine, left the office building's parking lot and merged into the busy driveway.

This is not the first time Hu Jiangshan has driven in Thailand.

In fact, both in his previous life and Hu Jiangshan's original body often drove overseas, and Tyrande should be the one who drove the most. Hu Jiangshan knew how complicated the traffic in Tyrande was.

Of course, compared with the capital of the mainland, Shanghai and other big cities, the complexity is just that and the difficulty is not that high.

The only thing you need to watch out for is the motorcycles that keep popping out.

The Tyranids ride motorcycles so fast, it's like a show of Fast and Furious. Sometimes it really seems like they don't care about their lives and completely ignore motor vehicles that are much bigger than them. The main point is that they are skilled and brave.

The situation is basically the same in other parts of Southeast Asia, so motorcycle accidents have always been a very common traffic accident.

Hu Jiangshan's driving skills are quite impressive and he drives very steadily on the road.

Hu Jiangshan was sure that he was relatively familiar with Gu Man's place, but in order to reach his destination as quickly as possible, he still turned on the mobile navigation.

The navigation system used abroad is Dog Navigation, which has fewer functions than domestic navigation and is not as accurate, but it is basically sufficient.

Hu Jiangshan had just looked at the envelope, which contained a key and the address of a residence.

The house was within the urban area of ​​Guman, and Hu Jiangshan forgot to ask what kind of house it was.

Maybe it's an apartment, maybe it's a house, and of course it could be a villa.

But Guman is the capital of Tyrande and an international metropolis, so the villas should be very expensive.

The prices of villas in other tourist cities should be higher.

A moment later, Hu Jiangshan drove into a gate and found himself in a residential area, similar to residential areas in China, except that all the houses here were single-family houses.

When they arrived, Hu Jiangshan saw the house number and stopped the car.

Hu Jiangshan stopped the car, jumped out, and was stunned. My goodness, Hu Jiangshan was too narrow-minded, this really is a villa.

Mainlanders may think that any single-family or row house is a villa. In fact, they are called houses abroad.

In the country of Xiaori Zi, it is called a single-family house, which is not the same as a villa, but just an ordinary house.

There are standards for villas. First of all, they must have a special design, then the area must meet the standards, and the hardware level must also be in compliance.

Anyway, not every house can be called a villa.

Hu Jiangshan was very sure that the house in front of him was a villa. Just looking at the area, it was ridiculously large. It looked like the building alone was nearly 200 square meters. If you include the yard, it would be at least 300 or 400 square meters.

The yard has a low wall that is only slightly taller than an adult, but it should be safe here because it is a walled community with security guards and patrols.

There are two parking spaces just outside the wall, instead of parking in the yard.

Hu Jiangshan arrived at the gate of the courtyard. The gate was very design-conscious and heavy. It was obviously a high-end product and would not be cheap.

However, there is no electronic combination lock system, and the keys and locks are relatively retro, which does give it a unique sense of taste.

Hu Jiangshan opened the door with his key and walked in.

It’s amazing. Looking from the outside, you have no idea what’s going on inside. There are so many things configured in the yard.

There is a Thai-style pavilion, which is not only equipped with tables and chairs, but also with a barbecue grill and a sink, and can accommodate at least seven or eight people for a party.

Next to the pavilion is a very large swimming pool. You can walk out of the glass door of the living room of the main house and jump directly into the pool to swim.

There are two sun chairs next to the swimming pool, full of holiday atmosphere.

Before entering the house, Hu Jiangshan felt that this place was indeed much more comfortable than a hotel.

Who would want to stay in a hotel when you have a villa to live in? That's crazy.

Hu Jiangshan walked through the front yard and into the living room.

A typical wide hall design of a luxury house, with all furniture and electrical appliances fully equipped.

Hu Jiangshan opened the refrigerator and found quite a few drinks and beer inside.

Looking further inside, there is a wine cabinet and a bar. There are more than a dozen bottles of wine in the wine cabinet, including red wine, foreign wine, and several bottles of vodka.

Many Russians like to come to Thailand for vacation. There are quite a lot of vodkas available for purchase here, even more complete than in Russia.

This is a one-story villa, equivalent to a large flat. Hu Jiangshan likes this kind of house very much.

Of course, if you are at the seaside and there is a view, it is better to have two floors so that the view will be better.

Hu Jiangshan thought, since it's so comfortable here, he might as well stay for a few more days. There's nothing to do in Hong Kong Island anyway.

Hu Jiangshan remembered that his luggage was still in the hotel.

Everything else is not important and you can get it tomorrow, but you must have some spare clothes.

Hu Jiangshan had no choice but to lock the door, drive straight to the hotel, pick up his luggage, check out, and then drive back.

It was already evening, and Hu Jiangshan was sweating profusely. He simply took a nice hot bath, went to the convenience store outside to buy some instant food, and then sat in the pavilion to eat and drink.

Hu Jiangshan checked and found out there was a night market nearby, but he was too tired today and didn't want to go shopping, so he decided to leave it for tomorrow.

After finishing his meal, Hu Jiangshan swam a few laps in the swimming pool, then lay down on a sun lounger to rest, drinking beer and looking at his mobile phone.

Miraculously, there are almost no mosquitoes here.

I don’t know if there are mosquito control measures in the high-end residential areas in Tyrande.

Just then, Hu Jiangshan's cell phone rang.

It was Uncle Hu Pingyang who called.

Hu Jiangshan answered the phone, and Hu Pingyang's cheerful voice came from the other end.

From the sound of it, you can tell that Hu Pingyang had a good talk with the people from Guoxun Electronics.

As soon as Hu Jiangshan asked, he got a good result.

In the afternoon, Hu Pingyang held a meeting with people from Guoxun Electronics and also met with the boss of Guoxun Electronics via remote video.

The other party has clearly stated that they are willing to cooperate with Pingtai Electronics, and that some of the supercapacitors designed for Pingtai Electronics have already been produced and can be sent to the production line immediately.

Hu Pingyang said: "Ashan, this time it's all thanks to you. After a conversation this afternoon, I realized that they still have some concerns about the cooperation. There are voices of opposition, but the boss's words don't necessarily count."

Hu Jiangshan smiled and said, "I'm glad I can help. By the way, uncle, thank you for letting me stay in such a nice big villa. I can finally feel comfortable for a few days."

"That's nothing. You can stay in the house as long as you want. You don't have to give me the key. You can stay here next time you come."

"Ah? How can that be possible? I can just stay for a few days."

"If I say yes, then yes. By the way, Ashan, you can't stay in Guman all the time, right? Do you want to go to Puchbein or Batiya? Chingmai is also OK. I have villas in these places and I can arrange them for you at any time."

Hu Jiangshan quickly said: "I haven't decided yet, let's talk about it in a few days."

"Okay, then you can contact me anytime. By the way, don't go to those messy places. If something happens to you here, your parents will have to find me."

It seems that Hu Pingyang is still not very confident about Hu Jiangshan and is worried that he will do something stupid outside.

Tyrande is a mixed bag, with all kinds of entertainment venues everywhere, and some of them are indeed very risky.

"Uncle, don't worry, I won't go to those places."

The two chatted about some random things and then hung up the phone.

Hu Jiangshan sat for a while, finished a bottle of beer, and went to sleep.

Early the next morning, Hu Jiangshan was still sleeping when he suddenly heard his cell phone vibrating.

Hu Jiangshan had no choice but to get up from the bed. He looked at the caller ID and saw that it was the young master Xiao Ming calling.

"Hey, Mr. Hu, where are you?"

"Brother Ming, I'm still sleeping."

Xiao Ming felt a little embarrassed when he heard this, and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't consider the time. How about you sleep a little longer?"

"No need, Brother Ming, what's the matter?"

"I have contacted Mr. Wang. Let's have dinner together tonight. I will arrange the place. See you there."

Hu Jiangshan didn't react for a moment, but soon thought of Wang Zhicheng.

It seems that Xiao Ming took the initiative to contact Wang Zhicheng, and the other party agreed to have dinner together, but on the condition that Hu Jiangshan must be invited.

Hu Jiangshan had to eat this meal.
