Rebirth of Hong Kong Island, leading the technology war

Chapter 260 Xiang You's Party

Hu Jiangshan didn't have much interaction with Xiang You in the past.

Although the two are theoretically in the same circle, their circles are slightly different.

For example, it is true that Xiang You’s father Xiang Guoqiang is a rich man, but Xiang Guoqiang has been in the Hong Kong film and television industry for many years and also runs a film and television company.

Film and television companies are cultural companies. The people they come into contact with are either actors, directors, or cultural figures. They are different from real estate businessmen and financial tycoons.

Moreover, the personality of this young man Xiang You is really different from that of ordinary rich kids. He has a strong sense of the underworld.

To put it more bluntly, he is very loyal, has a bottom line, and is very stubborn.

These characteristics of Xiang You are a bit like those of the older generation of Hong Kong businessmen. Because of this, Xiang You has developed quite a few fans in the mainland, who think that Xiang You is a man of temperament and a real man.

So people like Xiang You and Hu Jiangshan can't actually get along well. Even if they meet in certain occasions such as charity parties, the most they can do is nod and say hello.

Hu Jiangshan's reputation is not very good. With Xiang You's temper and personality, when he sees someone like Hu Jiangshan, sometimes he doesn't even want to pay attention to him and just passes by.

There are even rumors that sometimes after Xiang You knew about the bad things Hu Jiangshan had done, he would want to teach Hu Jiangshan a lesson, give him a beating, and let him know his place.

Fortunately, Hu Jiangshan was a coward at the time and did not accept the invitation. He was afraid and gave up.
Now Xiang You actually took the initiative to talk to Hu Jiangshan and invited him over for dinner. It was indeed very abnormal.

What kind of wind is blowing?

However, one could tell the reason after hearing Hu Jiangshan's words. Hu Jiangshan's behavior during this period was completely different from before. He was almost like a different person.

The circle of wealthy people in Hong Kong Island is actually not that big. There have always been a lot of gossips about Hu Jiangshan, and this time it was also widely spread. It is impossible that Xiang You has not heard of it.

Of course, Hu Jiangshan didn't have any unrealistic ideas and thought that Xiang You asked him to come over because he wanted to make friends with him.

Most likely Xiang You was very curious and wanted to see what Hu Jiangshan had become and how big a change he had made, so he called Hu Jiangshan over on the phone.

What should he do now? Since Hu Jiangshan lived in Hong Kong Island and mixed with some rich kids, he had to consider the other party's face.

Since Xiang You took the initiative to speak, Hu Jiangshan must go there. It's nothing more than having a meal, drinking some wine, chatting and talking. There's nothing else to do.

Hu Jiangshan said to Xiang You: "Okay, Brother You, since you said so, I must go."

After hearing this, Xiang You smiled and said, "Okay, then we'll wait for you. You must come."

Then Xiang You told the address of the party, which was the Honglu Club.

This club is very famous in Hong Kong Island. It is where Hu Jiangshan and his friends often go to play. Of course Xiang You would go there sometimes, but the two sides were usually not in the same place and could never get together.

After hanging up the phone, Hu Jiangshan sat on the sofa for a while, looked at the sea view, then got up and went to the pier.

Since you have already promised Feng Hua and Xiang You, then hurry over there and go home and sleep as soon as you finish the job.

When he arrived at the dock, Hu Jiangshan saw at least a dozen construction machines working desperately.

There are vehicles and robots. They work in an orderly manner and the connection between them is natural. Not only does each machine work very smoothly, but the connection between machines is also perfect. There is no chance of jamming at all.

For example, when two machines are misaligned, they are only a millimeter away from colliding, but they can still pass through perfectly, which looks both thrilling and magical.

Hu Jiangshan is an expert in this field and is very clear that these are all applications of artificial intelligence.

Artificial intelligence can avoid most risks in engineering and is more reliable than humans. If it is a relatively complete artificial intelligence system, it can even bring safety to 100% without any problems.

Of course, this is 2018 and artificial intelligence hasn’t evolved much yet, so these construction machines are completely ultra-modern.

The current construction location is right next to the small pier. It seems that the infrastructure planning and construction system has a complete construction sequence, which can ensure that the previous functions of the small pier are not affected.

Of course, there will still be some impact, but it will not reach the point where it cannot be used.

Hu Jiangshan took the Seahorse back to Hong Kong Island.

It was already evening at this time, and it was time for Hu Jiangshan to meet those young masters.

Meanwhile, the Red Furnace Club.

Clubs like Honglu are basically closed during the day and only officially open at night. Now it is evening and the popularity of the club entrance is gradually increasing.

In the parking lot in front of the Honglu Club, various luxury cars are competing with each other, attracting passers-by to stop and watch.

To be honest, in places like this, supercars like Ferrari 488 and Lamborghini 911 are too common. Generally, the only ones that can arouse people's interest are limited editions or special editions, which are worth over million yuan.

The people in the Honglu Club are basically young people. The older guests are probably in their forties at most. Older people don’t come to such places.

Although the Red Stove Club is not an old club in Hong Kong Island, it is a nightclub that was newly built in the past decade. Because of this, it is very good in all aspects, from site selection to decoration to service.

The Honglu Club is not a high-end club exclusively for rich people, but it is a fashionable nightclub that can attract more young people. This is the so-called latecomer advantage.

In addition to the normal parties, the club also has many private rooms, large and small, of different specifications and grades, some ordinary and some luxurious.

Of course, even ordinary private rooms can be considered luxurious in other ordinary nightclubs, but the luxurious private rooms of the Red Furnace Club are of a different type, with various themes.

For example, futuristic style, retro style, rainforest style, western style, and even prison style and hospital style.

In short, almost everything you can think of is available.

Less popular styles like hospital style and prison style are probably only chosen by people with special hobbies. Most people will choose private rooms with styles that are acceptable to the general public and in which they can stay comfortably.

The largest private room can even hold banquets and is spacious enough to accommodate fifty or sixty people.

Of course, this private room is not cheap, and only the rich and powerful can afford it.

In a place like Hong Kong Island, there are many wealthy people, so it is not easy to book this private room. Even if you rush to spend money, you can’t get it.

This private room is booked tonight.

There were not many people in the private room at that moment, only four or five. However, anyone who was familiar with the wealthy circles in Hong Kong Island knew that each of these people had a prominent background and were all children of top tycoons.

Among them is Xiang Guoqiang’s eldest son Xiang You.

Xiang You is now about thirty years old, tall and thin, and is already considered a big shot among the younger generation.

What is valuable is that Xiang You is a relatively low-key person. Although he has many small shortcomings, he has no major problems. People think of him as a decent person.

Now several people were sitting or standing, and the one talking to Xiang You was Feng Hua, a second-generation rich man from the mainland.

Although Feng Hua does not have deep roots in Hong Kong Island and is a foreigner, he is financially strong. His father is a big entrepreneur in the mainland, and the power behind him should not be underestimated. In addition, Feng Hua has a relatively cheerful personality, and he has gradually established a firm foothold in the circle of rich second-generations in Hong Kong Island and is very popular.

Not to mention anything else, Feng Hua can maintain good relationships with Hu Jiangshan, Li Changxi and Xiang You at the same time. This ability alone is not something that ordinary people have. It's like he's cheating.

Except for Xiang You and Feng Hua, the others are also the second-generation rich from Hong Kong Island, and they usually walk with their heads held high.

However, when everyone got together, they basically revolved around Xiang You, treating him as the central figure.

Xiang You checked the time and said, "Feng Hua, are we here too early? It seems that no one has come."

Feng Hua quickly explained: "Brother You, it's indeed a little early, but I didn't invite too many people today. After all, I have to invite Chen Yifei over, and it would be inconvenient if there were too many people."

"That's right. Since we're inviting Chen Yifei, we can't invite some random people."

Feng Hua nodded. Everyone knew that the star Chen Yifei liked quietness very much and didn't like to attend crowded occasions.

Unless it is a formal occasion, Chen Yifei always looks for people she is familiar with when she goes out for a party, so the people invited today are all people who have had interactions with Chen Yifei in some occasions before.

And they invited a few more girls. They had a good chat with Chen Yifei at the party. Otherwise, it would be awkward to have nothing to say when they met.

At this time, Xiang You asked Feng Hua: "By the way, will Hu Jiangshan be here soon?"

Feng Hua nodded: "I just sent him a message, and he said he would come over in about half an hour."

Xiang You sat on the sofa, picked up the wine glass and took a sip: "What is Hu Jiangshan doing now? I heard that he has his own business?"

"Yes, yes, yes. Mr. Hu bought an outlying island and built a fishery on it."

Xiang You had also heard about this matter and just wanted to confirm it with Feng Hua.

"A fishery? Is he really running a fishery? Is he successful? Is he just throwing money away?"

Feng Hua answered seriously: "I went there once before, and the fishery was quite well run. This time they should be serious."

Xiang You laughed: "This is quite new. I didn't expect Hu Jiangshan to have this skill. Some time ago, I heard that Hu Jiangshan seemed to have changed into a different person and had done some serious things. Today, I really have to see for myself whether Hu Jiangshan has changed that much."

Feng Hua lowered his voice and said, "Brother You, you know what, Mr. Hu has changed a lot recently. I feel..."

"What does it feel like?"

"It feels like Master Hu has suddenly become enlightened. How can I describe it? He has become particularly... particularly wise."

"…Ah? Wisdom?"

Xiang You was very surprised. It was hard to imagine and very strange to apply the word "wise" to Hu Jiangshan.

"I just don't understand, is it that weird? How long has it been? I remember the last time I saw him, when was it? Yes, yes, about half a year ago, he wasn't that great back then."

Feng Hua said: "So the change is so big that people can't accept it for a while."

Xiang You became even more curious and really wanted to know how much Hu Jiangshan had changed. That was why he took the initiative to ask Hu Jiangshan to come over over the phone.

Just then, someone pushed the door open.

Two girls came in. One was Feng Qiuyi, who was very cute and Feng Hua's sister.

The other girl looked very cool and was also very tall, conservatively estimated to be about 1.7 meters tall.

The girl's name is Gao Ningzhen, and everyone who knows her calls her Jenny.

Gao Ning really has a prominent background. Although her father Gao Wanrui is very low-key in Hong Kong Island, he has many industries overseas.

For example, in Britain, Gao Wanrui owns shares in two large ports. It can be said that he is wealthy enough to rival a country.

Moreover, according to unreliable information, Gao Wanrui was also awarded a title by the British royal family, but it is not clear what specific title it was.

After all, the Gao family is too low-key in Hong Kong Island, and it is difficult for outsiders except the Gao family to understand the Gao family’s true financial resources.

But no one underestimates Gao Ningzhen, she is the invisible big sister.

Gao Ningren's character is worthy of the title of big sister.

It is worth mentioning that Gao Ningzhen and Hu Jiangshan do not get along well. They had quarreled in public before, and Gao Ningzhen even almost slapped Hu Jiangshan in public.

If Hu Jiangshan had not dodged quickly, he would have been hit.

Even so, Hu Jiangshan had embarrassed himself in public.

Of course, Hu Jiangshan was indeed very irritating at that time and did some very bad things.

As soon as Gao Ningzhen came in, Feng Hua was stunned.

Feng Hua pulled his sister Feng Qiuyi aside and asked in a low voice, "Why is Jenny here?"

"Ah? Why can't she come? I was shopping with her. After receiving your call, I must invite her to come along. Otherwise, it would be rude."

"Oh, you don't know, Mr. Hu is here too."

"...He's coming too? Hu Jiangshan comes, so what?"

Feng Hua looked like he was about to faint: "They don't get along! There's a conflict! Don't you know?"

"Hey, how long ago was that? It should be better now, maybe people have forgotten it."

Feng Hua was speechless for a moment: "I'm kidding, how could I forget this? You know Jenny's bad temper, maybe you'll have to cause trouble for Hu Jiangshan."

Feng Qiuyi rolled her eyes: "She's here too, so it's useless for you to say anything now."

Feng Hua thought for a moment and said, “You should communicate with Jenny first and ask her not to be impulsive when she sees Mr. Hu later.”

Feng Qiuyi made an "OK" gesture and went to talk to Gao Ningzhen in private.

After hearing what Feng Qiuyi said, Gao Ningzhen's eyes widened: "What? Hu Jiangshan is coming too?"

"Yes, Jenny, so don't get excited. If you don't like him, just ignore him."

Gao Ningzhen asked curiously: "Xiang You is here, and Hu Jiangshan is here too? This is too weird."
