Hong Kong Movies: You Hongxingzi, what the hell is the charity king?

Chapter 566 "565" Zu Ge is the richest man in Hong Kong Island! Mainland performing arts troupe: Wow, the Five Star Group is so... awesome!
After leaving the airport, the Toyota Coaster entered the Kai Tak Tunnel and headed towards Tsim Sha Tsui.

Soon, we arrived at the Peninsula Hotel.

"Wow, it's quite luxurious."

"We're staying here tonight?"

A group of people got off the car and entered the Peninsula Hotel to check in.

Stay in the hotel's luxury suite, 2 people per room.

The glass windows of the room are facing Victoria Harbour, and you can see Wan Chai, Admiralty, Central...

The most prosperous area of ​​Hong Kong Island is in full view.

Zhu Shimao: "It's really prosperous~~"

Chen Peisi: “There are so many tall buildings.”

The tour leader said: "Tomorrow, I will take you to report to ATV, and then take you to play in Hong Kong Island for a day."

"Tomorrow night, I will take you to the Five Star Group's New Year's Eve dinner."

Zhu Shimao was curious: "What is the New Year's Eve dinner?"

The tour leader said: "It means that after the company's annual reunion dinner, all employees will have a meal together. This year, the Five Star Group has reserved Jumbo Seafood Restaurant, which is a restaurant on the sea. It has three ships and can accommodate more than 2000 people. You can join their annual reunion dinner then."

"But the Five Star Group is too big, with tens of thousands of people, and only employees who are selected by lottery can go to eat. We came at the right time, so Mr. Guan, the boss of the Five Star Group, added us in."

Chen Peisi was curious: "What is the Five Star Group?"

We talked about it on the way, but we didn't go into detail. Besides, it was obviously ATV, so what does it have to do with the Five Star Group?
The tour leader explained: "Five Star Group is the parent company of Asia Television. This company is very large, has a wide coverage, and a good reputation. It is probably the most powerful company in Hong Kong Island now..."

I don’t know how to explain how powerful Five Star is, so let them figure it out on their own.

“They donated the most in Hong Kong during the floods two years ago.”

After hearing this, everyone in the performing arts troupe immediately stood in awe.

quickly,

The waiter brought a midnight snack, and the troupe ate, then took a shower and went to bed.

Before going to bed,
Chen Peisi's room,
Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

Chen Peisi was a little worried: "Old Zhu, do you think they can understand the Mandarin we speak? What if they can't understand?"

Zhu Shimao: "I don't know. No matter what, we have to give our best performance."

Chen Peisi: "Shouldn't we rehearse more? Otherwise, if we make a fool of ourselves on stage, it will be a huge loss of face."

Zhu Shimao: “Okay.”

It was their first time in Hong Kong Island and they were filled with anxiety about the unknown.

at this time,

Downstairs, another group of people also came to the Peninsula Hotel.

A Cantonese crosstalk group led by Huang Junying.

He is a well-known and household name in Guangdong Province and a pioneer of Cantonese crosstalk.

His Cantonese crosstalk is very powerful and very popular among people in South China.

This time, he was sent here by Guangdong Province, and it was the imperial capital that gave the greeting.

……

……

A new day, August 1th,
Get up early in the morning.

Zhu Shimao and his companion, with panda eyes, came downstairs to meet up with the acrobatic troupe and have breakfast.

After breakfast, we got on the Coaster and headed to ATV.

After the ATV report, the tour leader prepared to continue taking them around Hong Kong Island.

Zhu Shimao was surprised: "Don't we need to rehearse?"

The chief director of the Spring Festival Gala: "No need for rehearsal, the rules in Hong Kong are not that strict, and the programs are more casual..."

Mainland Performance Troupe: “6!”

In the afternoon, Five Star Group completed the settlement of its short sale of HSBC shares.

The Five Star Group chartered these three ships and held its New Year's Eve dinner here. The senior management and 2000 lucky employees who won a lottery, a total of 2500 people, had dinner here.

Over time,
Most of the employees arrived one after another.

Zhu Shimao: "Wow~~Floating restaurant?"

Chen Peisi: “So impressive!”

It is even possible to open a restaurant on the sea.

Eye-opener!

quickly,

Under the guidance of the waiter, they sat in the front row of the restaurant stage.

"Sitting in this position, are we considered important guests?"

"I do not know……"

Then Huang Junying and others were also arranged to be with them.

"Hey, aren't you Mr. Zhu or Mr. Chen?"

"Hello, hello~~"

After introducing each other, since we were all from the mainland, we became friendly with each other.

quickly,

The time gradually came to 19:00,

The whole restaurant was already crowded with people, bustling and noisy...

Guan Zu, Ruan Mei, Fang Ting, Le Huizhen, Gao Jin, Wei Yingzi...they also arrived one after another.

Xiaofu, Li Jie, Wang Jianjun and others also rushed back from the United States.

Naturally, I sat at the table in the front.

Ah Hua, Hua Di, Xie Weihao, and Li Changjiang were about to sit down when they were kicked by Guan Zu.
"Go up and sing to warm up the crowd."

"??? We? Aren't we flies?" Ahua and the other three pointed at their noses.

Guan Zu: "For the New Year, of course it's Gong Xi Fa Cai!"

Ahua and the other four: "emmm~~~"

My goodness, the flies are also being eaten, and we have become the cattle and horses.

Ahua and his four companions came on stage and started to perform with their headsets...

Ah Hua: "Good evening, brothers and sisters from all the Five Star Group~~~~"

Huadi: "Welcome to the Five Star Group's New Year's Eve dinner!"

Xie Weihao: "Now let's sing a song "Gong Xi Fa Cai"!"

All employees: “Ulla~~~~”

The president wants to sing for me, how awesome am I!
As the music plays,

Sihua began to sing: "I congratulate you on your wealth, I congratulate you on your brilliance, the best please come over, the bad please go away, the more gifts, the less blame..."

As the sound of "Gong Xi Fa Cai" rang out, the whole venue suddenly became lively.

After singing,

Ah Hua shouted, "Next, our Human Resources Director, the God of Songs, Wuying, will come on stage and sing for everyone!"

All the employees shouted excitedly: "Good!!"

Then Sihua ran off the stage to catch flies.

Wuying ran away one step ahead: "You want me to sing? No way!"

Then, without noticing, a foot stretched out from under my feet.

Gao Gang is reading a book!
Then oops~~~
The black fly staggered and fell forward.

Abu grabbed him and prevented him from falling: "Why are you so careless?"

Then Sihua ran over and dragged Wuying onto the stage.

"No~~~"

"Hahahaha~~~~"

The whole crowd laughed.

Soon, the blackflies began to sing.

After singing three or four songs, the warm-up ended.

Then Guan Zu came onto the stage.

Holding the microphone,

"All my brothers and sisters..."

"1992 has passed..."

"I'm here to thank all my brothers and sisters for their hard work over the past year..." Zhu Shimao, Chen Peisi, the Acrobatic Troupe, Huang Junying and others looked at each other in surprise.

Who is this?

Guan Zu was on the stage, speaking with enthusiasm and a little pride about what happened in the Five Star Group last year.

"We have always been practicing the concept of 'being kind to others and benefiting the neighborhood'..."

“We have always been committed to Hong Kong Island…”

Many employees in the audience stared at Guan Zu on the stage, unable to hold back a surge of warmth, and many of them had tears of excitement in their eyes.

Gangsheng looked at Guan Zu on the stage. If Guan Zu hadn’t saved her, she didn’t know how miserable she would be now.

Zhang Guobiao was glad that he had made the right choice, which allowed him to realize his self-worth and contribute to society... This life was worth it!

Wang Jianjun looked at his brother, then at Guan Zu on the stage, and felt that he had followed the right person. If it weren't for Guan Zu, he would probably have died on the way to the robbery.

Gong Wei, his wife Li Xia and his son Gong Gu, holding hands.

Xu Zhengyang looked at Guan Zu and couldn't help but smile. He seemed to like this place more and more.

The Seven Brothers of Tianyangsheng...

Chen Peisi, Zhu Shimao and others were stunned when they heard Guan Zu's summary of last year.

Is this Five Star Group so powerful?

Guan Zu was on the stage, his voice was passionate,
"Brothers and sisters,"

“Last year, we achieved so much, and it was all because of you!”

“I also believe that this year, with the joint efforts of all of us, the Five Star Group will be even more brilliant, and the future of Hong Kong Island will become even better because of us!”

“In the new year, let us continue to work together and climb to higher peaks! Go, go, go!”

One dish after another was served on the table.

Began to eat.

Zhu Shimao and Chen Peisi were eating at the table when they saw Guan Zu and his people coming over.

Zhu Shimao and the others stood up quickly, a little stiff.

This is the boss!

When the tour leader introduced Guan Zu just now, he said that he was at least the richest man in Hong Kong Island, with a net worth of tens of billions or even hundreds of billions.

This kind of big guy makes everyone feel a little nervous.

Mr. Guan enthusiastically shook hands with Zhu Shimao and Chen Peisi: "Thank you Mr. Zhu and Mr. Chen for coming..."

Then he shook hands with the acrobatic troupe, Huang Junying and others one by one.

"Thank you everyone for coming."

Zhu Shimao and others quickly shouted, "You're welcome...", "We should do this", "Hello, Mr. Guan..."

My palms are sweating...

Afterwards, Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao performed "The Protagonist and the Supporting Actor" on stage. The audience was confused. However, the audience in front of the TV, because the TV was equipped with subtitles, made many elderly people who fled to Hong Kong Island during that period deeply moved and also laughed.

Continue to insert Hong Kong and Taiwan stars singing and indoor variety shows,
Then came the performance by the Chinese Acrobatic Troupe, where the rotating chairs and water tanks stunned the citizens of Hong Kong Island, and the knife-swallowing part made the audience gasp.
