My Lord, you need to stand up!

Chapter 792 Adults Don't Make Choices
So everything happened a bit by accident.

Without Lai Yuet-ngor's meddling, Wei-tung wouldn't have been able to ask Camp if he wanted to play for HK in international matches.

His original plan was really to find scum: "Those guys around Kemp... oh, not including that Hardaway. That bastard is the real expert. He deliberately didn't make a move last night. He just passed the ball around casually and didn't show off his tricks. I was planning to find a few players who failed in the draft and then naturalize them into HK players in a few years. How could I possibly find a top expert like Kemp?"

We agreed with the other party's officials to seriously consider and discuss the matter. The Basketball Association also proposed that as long as it can facilitate the players' participation, they will definitely grant the Dock Basketball Hall official status and provide various conveniences. They can even appoint the head coach of the representative team.

Because they were able to get a top player like Kemp, they believed that Wei Dong could definitely find a high-level coach as well.

Hong Kong's advantage lies in this: there are no veterans, powerful families, or elders. It's just a city where everything is simple, and the capable are the ones who live there.

This is the development path of small countries and regions. For example, village leagues and independent leagues are easy to run and thrive. Later, the mainland began to promote small leagues in various regions, all for the same reason.

When a business becomes large, it becomes easy to establish a seniority system.

After leaving, Wei Dong dialed Qin Yu Ye's cell phone. He originally wanted to go to the company to continue discussing how to take care of the child and change the child's nationality, but his wife excitedly told him that they were already in Repulse Bay and that he should hurry over to look at the house.

Only then did Wei Dong and the others drive over.

After hearing the whole story, Chow Yun-fat chuckled to himself: "Then we need to help Xiao'e and Camp develop their relationship!"

Wei Dong laughed and said it was nonsense: "Can basketball win an Olympic gold medal? Xiao'e is aiming for the Olympic gold medal in windsurfing. The key is Kemp... he seems pretty naive now, doesn't he?"

Then it felt like I'd been electrocuted. Why can't basketball win Olympic gold medals?
This might be the only chance!

As basketball fans know, the NBA signed an agreement with FIBA ​​in 1992, allowing professional players to participate in the Olympics.

The Dream Team, composed of Jordan and his old gang of hooligans, began to dominate basketball teams around the world.

Because players including the Chinese national team are defined as amateur players, they were completely dominated by the Dream Team, who were outclassed, after 92, and won the Olympic basketball gold medal.

They lost once during that period, which was due to their own carelessness, plus Argentina's main players are mostly professional players, and several of them are NBA experts.

Moreover, even if they don't win the championship, Shawn Kemp's highly entertaining and violent aesthetics, representing Hong Kong on the Olympic stage and showcasing it to the world, would be the greatest success for Wei Tung's basketball strategy.

Both its commercial and political value are absolutely enormous.

Chow Yun-fat could see with his own eyes that the driver's spirits had lifted: "Haha, looks like we're really going to make it to the Olympics!"

Wei Dong silently clenched his fist.

It's really close; it's only six or seven kilometers through the tunnel.

During the day, Repulse Bay is bright and refreshing under the summer sun.

Chow Yun-fat couldn't help but exclaim, "I barely managed to move over there and become your neighbor, and now you've moved over here. When will I ever catch up?!"

In fact, he was used to being poor and dared not take out a large loan to buy a house based on the mystical theories of whether a celebrity can stay popular for a long time.

The detached villas in Deep Water Bay are still around ten million Hong Kong dollars!

It's right on the slope of Li Bancheng's house.

In the 1960s, Li Bancheng bought his famous mansion for only 630,000 yuan. This place is a remote mountain village.

Even though it has been renovated twice, it's not actually that expensive.

After all, there are only so many top-tier billionaires in Hong Kong. Even if the proportion is among the highest in the world, a few dozen households scattered in different places doesn't amount to much.

Only about ten extremely wealthy families live scattered in this area.

It was only after the tunnel was connected and mainland tycoons began to make a big foray into Hong Kong real estate that the reputation of Deep Water Bay, which is next to Li Bancheng, was soared.

But Wei Dong was no longer greedy for money at this point; his first complaint was that he didn't want to be associated with Li Bancheng.

unlucky.

Moreover, having been widowed for forty years, Wei Dong disliked living in the desolate mountains, where he was robbed without even realizing it.

Then let's go to Repulse Bay, near the sea.

The main road faces the sea and is even lower than a house on the main road.

It's quite large, with a three-story main building of 900 square meters. At a market price of 20,000 per square meter, that's close to 18 million.

However, the area included is even larger. Because it is a sloping area, there is a huge underground basement for the building to be leveled, and there are even two parking platforms that run alongside the public road.

You can drive into a platform that can park 20 or 30 cars and move your car downstairs to use as an indoor garage.

Both floors provide access to the main building.

The parking lots alone are eight or nine hundred square meters, not counting the generator, circulating swimming pool, and lawn in the basement of the main building, and there is also a two-story servants' dormitory next to it.

Qin Yuye pointed out to Wei Dong with feigned seriousness, "That building is for Camp and Xiao'e to live in..."

Wei Dong laughed and cursed, saying it was nonsense; even during the peak of his athletic career, he had to be controlled.

However, he also showed off, looking around and thinking the parking lot was quite suitable: "Okay, let's build a basketball court here, let's buy it."

Qin Yuye still had a soft spot for Deep Water Bay: "Why don't you take a look at those houses over there? They're on a prime location, only ten million Hong Kong dollars." In reality, these kinds of detached houses owned by the super-rich are very difficult to sell on the market. In fact, some extremely wealthy families would be ashamed to sell their houses publicly, and it could even cause a stock price crash.

Therefore, it's mostly financial experts within the industry who handle these matters privately for the business owners.

Qin Yuye only had the opportunity to buy a small villa on the hilltop after he got married and gained the approval of Lao Heng and Uncle De. He also helped Fa Ge find one.

They were just saying they wanted to find a bigger apartment next door to kick the little black guy out.

Unexpectedly, because Lai Yuet-ngor bought a property in the southern part of Hong Kong Island, she still wanted to bring honor to her ancestors.

Having gotten to know Wei Dong better, Qin Yuye understood that Wei Dong didn't care much about luxury homes and such, and that spending money on these things was a waste; it would be better to build a factory.

So they still want to fight for that house that's been weighing on Li Bancheng's head.

To everyone's surprise, after driving back with Wei Dong and looking at the house, he easily made a decision: "Adults don't make choices; they want it all."

Shen Cuiyue, who had been silent until now, was surprised: "You want me to live separately from the second wife?"

Qin Yuye, who didn't understand the joke, burst out laughing before he could even speak.

Wei Dong reached out and tapped Shen Laosan on the head: "Investment, this house... let's give it to Mingzai for his wedding first."

Chow Yun-fat looked around and said, "Could we film 'God of Gamblers' here? The beachfront view of that house downstairs could also be used."

Then it's even more worth buying.

Wei Dong speculated that once mainland tycoons and IT upstarts start buying luxury homes in Hong Kong, these villas with private swimming pools, tennis courts, and gardens will likely start at hundreds of millions of dollars.

As a first-generation IT tycoon, it's not a bad idea to stock up first, right?

Because there was a small public pier next to that house.

Looking out to sea for six or seven kilometers, you can see his hometown, Lamma Island. In the movie "God of Gamblers," after he fell and lost his memory in the luxury residential area, he went to that rural area to film.

In other words, almost all the outdoor scenes were filmed in these three locations.

As for the God of Gamblers tournament, which requires a large crowd to watch, there are plenty of extras at the basketball court.

So Qin Yuye was overjoyed and immediately completed the formalities with the real estate agent and financial advisor. She also arranged for a cleaning company and a decoration company to renovate and refurbish the place so she could live the life of a wealthy socialite.

Shen Cuiyue thought she could move in immediately; it was so magnificent, with all kinds of furniture neatly arranged.

Wei Dong echoed this sentiment: "Just tidy it up a bit, we'll talk about it when the crew comes to use it. Right now, we need to figure out what's going on with those two guys first, and then we can test the waters when we have dinner together tonight."

Qin Yuye didn't dwell on it and gestured with his fingers: "See you tonight."

But she also requested, "Could we still ask Grandpa Cheng Lang to come and take a look?"

Wei Dong reluctantly replied, "Fine, whether he looks at it or not won't affect our house purchase. Besides, what bad things could he possibly say about us?"

The real estate agents, who were originally there to serve the super-rich, were a bit arrogant, but they put on a show of being very professional to this nouveau riche from mainland China.

Wei Dong couldn't be bothered to care at all.

Upon hearing his words, the brokers and accountants hurriedly bowed and scraped as they saw him off. Only after he left did they ask if he was the top-notch feng shui master, as they had heard he had stopped providing feng shui consultations for wealthy families recently.

Qin Yuye casually replied, "Oh, you're working for our master now. Didn't you see the Taoist priests following me? They're all his disciples and grand-disciples."

They hurriedly begged to meet the gold medal master that evening.

Cheng Lang now only does fortune telling at the basketball court, which has ironically made his market demand tight.

We can go directly over the ridge to get back to Tsim Sha Tsui.

Stone even deliberately dragged things out, pulling Brother Fa and the Taoist priest and nun onto the second car.

Shen Cuiyue was mainly incredulous: "They just casually bought two houses like that? Did they make a lot of money on this trip to Hong Kong?"

She neither cared whether she was useless nor asked what Wei Dong was actually earning.

So the old man was very satisfied: "There are a lot of properties, and we will make more money in the future, but buying these properties is an investment, and more importantly, it's about making a statement. We want to be Hong Kong people and develop our businesses here."

Shen Cuiyue looked outside: "Are most of them in Hong Kong now?"

Wei Dong shook his head: "There's no other way. It will take at least a few years to ten years for the mainland to fully accept private enterprises and the private economy, and allow individuals to get rich and become billionaires. We can't be the whetstone for this. We have more things to do. So everything we do in Hong Kong is to ensure that our development in the mainland is more stable."

Shen Laosan simply said, "Then I'll keep an eye on Hesheng's business."

Wei Dong shook his head: "He Shengcai is no big deal. You need to take good care of the basketball court. Let me put it this way, the money I made this trip has changed my mind. Especially if Kemp can really stay in Hong Kong to play basketball, I'm willing to pay for the construction of a basketball court."

Shen Cuiyue was unaware that Wei Dong was referring to super stadiums like Madison Square Garden or the Lakers' arena, which can hold 15,000 to 20,000 people.

This will be a brand new monument standing in the Pearl of the Orient.
