Chapter 368 Charity Auction 1
Before the return of Hong Kong, according to the laws of Hong Kong, the Justice of the Peace, like other Commonwealth countries, needed to hear cases or act as jurors to decide whether the prisoner is guilty or not, but now, this function has been replaced by full-time magistrates with legal qualifications.
Since the beginning of the last century, Hong Kong people have regarded being a Justice of the Peace as a status symbol, so many community members have actively donated or held public office in order to be appointed as Justice of the Peace.
In the last century, the Justice of the Peace was appointed by the ** official in the name of the Queen of England. He must have made outstanding contributions to society or respected people to receive this honor.
Only after the return of Hong Kong, although the system of the Justice of the Peace has been preserved, the right to appoint a Justice of the Peace has been replaced by the Chief Executive of Hong Kong. The Chief Executive has the right to grant him the person he deems suitable as the Justice of the Peace, and can also dismiss the appointment of the Justice of the Peace with
The peace gentleman surnamed He mentioned by Qin Xuanbing has a great cometrick. He is a descendant of He Dong, the richest man in Hong Kong. Although the He family has collapsed and each of his own business, his influence in Hong Kong is not much lower than that of the richest Chinese now. Is there anyone in Hong Kong who can compare with that superman?
Zhuang Rui feels a little incredible. You know, Li Superman has become a phenomenon. Among other things, the book that introduces his life experience alone, I don't know how many versions have appeared in the mainland. Everyone hopes to find their own way to start a business from his history of struggle.
Qin Xuanbing smiled and said, "You don't know much about the history of Hong Kong in the mainland. If the He Dong family is not separated, the richest Chinese is nothing at all. Do you know that in the past, almost half of the land in Hong Kong belonged to the He Dong family. At that time, one by one One by one"
After Qin Xuanbing's explanation, Zhuang Rui learned that the founder of the He family, who was not very famous and not very loud, was shocked. He Dong, who dared to be a mixed Chinese and British, had won "jazz" titles and medals in more than a dozen countries, and was good with historical celebrities such as Sun Yat-sen, Friends.
He Dong has served as the chairman and director of many companies such as HSBC, Huangpu Dock Co., Ltd., Hong Kong Electric Light Co., Ltd., Hong Kong Tram Co., Ltd., Hong Kong Land Co., Ltd., Jardine Ship Co., Ltd., etc., the Prime Minister of Donghua Hospital and Baoliang Bureau
There used to be a saying in Hong Kong that if a person is not self-sufficient, he will say, "Do you think you are He Dong?" This sentence is enough to prove that He Dong's status as the richest man in Hong Kong can be as rich as a country.
What Qin Xuanbing said is relatively old, but the next few names related to He Dong, Zhuang Rui is like thunder, and the gambling king of Macao, who is still alive, came out of the He Dong family, and even the first chief executive after the return of Macao.
There is also Bruce Lee, the Chinese kung fu emperor who is popular in the world film industry, who is also the grandson of the He Ben family. Although the current He Dong family has fallen, the thin camel is bigger than the horse, and its influence on Hong Kong is still not to be underestimated.
As for the current gentleman surnamed He Taiping, he is He Dong's grandson, but after he got a huge fortune, he did not go into the business. The dividends of many companies make him one of the few millionaires in Xiangjiang, but he is low-key. In his old age, he was more enthusiastic about philanthropy. In the 1980s, he was awarded the title of "Jazz" by the Queen of England, which was highly respected by Hong Kong people.
So the charity fundraising auctions he held are often closed by the top millionaires in Hong Kong. Many people are even proud of receiving his invitation. You know, that Superman is his regular guest.
After listening to Qin Xuanbing's explanation, Zhuang Rui was quite Yuanyu. Originally, he thought that the quadrangle courtyard he bought in Beijing was already very good, but compared with that Sir He, it was simply not popular. This half of Hong Kong used to be the back garden of others. How can I compare it?
Zhuang Rui didn't know until now that compared with these super-rich people, he can only be regarded as a poor person. Not to mention Qin Xuanbing's family, it has also been operated for generations, with billions of assets, which is far from comparable to the current Zhuang Rui. Zhuang Rui, if you don't want to go, forget it. Wait for me here. I'll be back soon.
Qin Xuanbing once went to Zhuang Rui's home in Pengcheng and knew that his family was average. She was afraid that he would not be used to such an occasion, because the people who went at night may also have her pursuers. Qin Xuanbing was also afraid that someone would stabbed Zhuang Rui, which was also one of the reasons why she did not It's okay. Let's go and have a look. I'm also curious about what will be auctioned at night. Is it all antiques?
Zhuang Rui thought for a moment, and he was bored to stay in the hotel. After returning to Beijing, Ouyang Jun asked him what he had done. He couldn't say that he had stayed in the hotel for two days. Besides, Zhuang Rui was also very good at the auction. Maybe there would be something good in it.
"It's hard to say. Every auction is provided by the guests invited by Sir He. What our family produced this time is a women's platinum-inlaid necklace designed by me, which should be worth about 200,000 yuan.
In the past, charity auctions of this nature were auctioned with some very ordinary objects, such as Bruce Lee's movie posters, things that a celebrity once used.
But now that they participate in charity auctions, many people have begun to compare with each other, and the things they take out are becoming more and more expensive. Some people even buy items in other places and then take them here for charity auctions. Of course, there are antiques, and they are all valuable.
Although Hong Kong is not big, it is one of the best charities in the world. It has a strict regulatory system and enthusiastic donations with the participation of the whole people, including those TV stations. They hold a charity donation party every week and set up a donation phone number. You can donate one yuan without making a phone call. The real Achieved the participation of the whole people.
In the past natural disasters in China, Hong Kong's charity has played a huge role, and the word " Volunteer" used in the mainland has also been passed on from Hong Kong.
Although Qin Xuanbing agrees with this kind of charity auction, the small charity fund-raising and sale of this kind of individual organization has deteriorated in recent years. Those super-rich descendants often take out some expensive cultural relics or jewelry to compare with each other.
Although the money from these things was eventually used for charity, it has become a place for some people to fight for wealth in disguise, which makes Qin Xuanbing very disgusted. If it hadn't been for the designer and owner of that jewelry, Qin Xuanbing would not have been too lazy to go to such an occasion.
When Zhuang Rui heard what Qin Xuanbing said, he suddenly became interested. The objects sold from the formal detention store are basically more likely to be genuine. Even if they get the charity detention party, the price of the detention will not be low. There should be no room to pick up the leaks. Besides, the nature of the auction is for charity fundraising. It's not a good place to pick up leaks.
Just looking at Qin Xuanbing's expectant eyes, Zhuang Rui still nodded and said, "I'll go with you in the evening, but you have to accompany me when you come back..." "Who is afraid of you!"
Qin Xuanbing came out of Cantonese, and it was very strong. After Zhuang Rui's moisture, it seemed that the two peaks were more plump. The tight little T-shirt seemed to burst at any time. Zhuang Rui was ready to move, and a pair of big hands became uneasy again. Don't... Don't make trouble. Let's go out to buy clothes." This time, Qin Xuanbing firmly pressed Zhuang Rui's hand. It's already afternoon. It's almost time to go to a few stores to buy something and eat.
The clothes that Zhuang Rui wore from the mainland are obviously a little inappropriate. Although it is not necessary to wear suits and leather shoes on this occasion, suit trousers and shirts are necessary. If Zhuang Rui breaks in with those travel shoes and jeans, he will definitely become a joke in a rich garden in Hong Kong the next day.
After Qin Xuanbing went out of the hotel, the two first ate something, and then Zhuang Rui followed Qin Xuanbing and began to sweep the goods. It was a woman's nature to go shopping. When it was almost dark, Qin Xuanbing's Ferrari's rear carriage was already full of large and small paper bags. Zhuang She, does it look good?" Qin Xuanbing changed into a long black dress and elegantly turned a garden in the middle of the living room, teasing Zhuang Rui's visual limit. Good-looking 11-11"
Zhuang Rui rushed to the pot with great difficulty; the saliva on the side was swallowed back into his stomach and said, "It's better not to wear it!"
After returning to the hotel for more than half an hour, Qin Xuanbing has changed five or six gifts. Zhuang Rui was dazzled, especially the snow-white skin exposed in the middle of the change of clothes, which made Zhuang Rui's mouth dry and unable to be himself. You should also change your clothes quickly. When we finish eating, the time is almost up.
If you think that there will be something to eat at the dinner party, you will be sure to be hungry all night. Such a dinner is mainly social, providing up to a few glasses of red wine salad and other food. It is impossible to eat enough.
Qin Xuanbing was very satisfied with this black gift. After finishing herself, she began to dress up Zhuang Rui. More than half of the clothes she bought today were bought for Zhuang Rui.
Of course, the money for clothes was all paid by Zhuang Rui himself. Although there was no male chauvinism, Zhuang Rui would not let Qin Xuanbing spend money, but just swiped out his Chinese bank card for nearly 600,000 yuan, which made Zhuang Rui a little distressed.
