"Mid-level villa?" Chen Tianfu thought for a while and said: "With your current worth, it is normal to change to Mid-Levels. You can take care of this kind of thing yourself. Buy it if you want. After buying it, do you want us to live together? It’s casual, we have lived here for ten years and are used to it.”
"Yes, but I still have to stay for a few days, a month." Wu Xiuling continued.
"You can live wherever you want, but I bought Banshan not for the price, but you guys also want to live in it." Chen Zhiwen said with a smile.
In 1975, according to his plan, he was bound to make waves in Hong Kong and his reputation would rise significantly. At that time, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it would be inconvenient to live in such a group of villas and he wanted to remain hidden. With privacy, Mid-Levels is the best choice.
There are many Mid-Levels villas in Hong Kong, but many of them bear the name of Mid-Levels. They are actually small villas. In the eyes of real bosses or people who admire them, Mid-Levels is a truly independent space with independent access roads and safety. It is very high, and coupled with the security forces invested, ordinary people have no way to enter, basically eliminating the possibility of media scurrying around.
Many overseas businesses were completed according to his plan, which made Chen Zhiwen set his sights on Hutchison Group, one of the four major foreign banks in Hong Kong. This plan was different from the secret acquisition of Wharf. Behind Wharf was the powerful Jardine Matheson. Chen Zhiwen will not reveal his intentions at the last moment, but Hutchison is a giant ship that is about to be silenced in the eyes of outsiders. Only he knows that the future is limitless.
But it was also this that gave him the opportunity to acquire it. Otherwise, in 1979, who knew whether HSBC would sell Hutchison to him? After all, there are too many variables in a few years.
Under the spotlight of the media, he not only wants to maintain his privacy, but also pays attention to the safety of himself and his family, so it is imperative to choose a mountainside villa.
Fortunately, although the big guys in the real estate market have judged that the market has basically reached the bottom and started to buy the bottom, it will take a long time for this recognition to be transmitted to the bottom layer. Only when the bottom layer thinks that the market is about to recover, the market will recover. up, but now, real estate prices are still low.
Luxurious mid-level villas are as scarce an asset as office properties in Central. They rise when real estate rises, and resist the fall when real estate falls. Even in 1974, the price was over 10 million Hong Kong dollars.
"It's okay to treat it as an investment. Our family has invested so much assets in industrial real estate. I'm very worried." Chen Tianfu laughed.
"Hong Kong's industry is about to recover. You can see it in another half a year." Chen Zhiwen smiled and said without saying more. It is still not necessary for many people to know about He Ji's hand.
"Come inside, it seems like it's going to rain." Wu Xiuling looked at the dark clouds in the sky and said.
"In the future, I will buy a villa in the middle of the mountain and build a large sunroom." Chen Zhiwen said.
"Another big swimming pool." Chen Tianfu continued.
"No problem." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said. These are all standard features of luxury homes. It would be best to have a helicopter parking airport. It will be more convenient to use helicopters for work in the future.
After all, a 5 million Rolls-Royce has no advantage whatsoever when stuck in traffic jams.
It was soon the Chinese New Year. In the villa complex, countless families set off firecrackers. The deafening sound spread for miles. Fireworks lit up half the sky. Not far away, there were other places where firecrackers were set off. .
Chen Zhiwen is also helping Chen Tianfu carry firecrackers and firecrackers. This is a tradition of the Chinese nation. Chen Tianfu celebrates every year and spends thousands of Hong Kong dollars on this.
For ordinary people, the Chinese New Year is an opportunity to relax and celebrate themselves. They can also convince themselves to spend money generously and compensate for the delicacies they usually dare not spend extravagantly. Therefore, they attach great importance to it and are very happy, but when they are rich in material things , living the same life every day, the New Year is not that interesting.
Chen Zhiwen spent the New Year just like his daily life. A few days after the New Year, when he was not working, Chen Zhiwen specially made an appointment with a few poker friends to go on a cruise ship for a few days.
The 10 days of Chinese New Year passed in a blink of an eye, and Chen Zhiwen returned to his office again, along with Woz, who returned from the United States. He brought the latest Snake design and model.
This is an arcade machine that is half a person tall. It has a 14-inch color screen and is surrounded by a layer of iron. There is a joystick and two buttons at the bottom of the screen. The joystick is naturally used to control the direction, and the buttons are used to start the game and confirm.
In the office at the moment, Chen Zhiwen, An Qi, and Lei Shengli were watching. After Woz connected the line, he turned on the power and the arcade screen lit up.
The color screen gives people a much better first impression. It is easier to arouse people's interest than Atari's Ping Pong and Arkanoid. However, the cost of the color screen is the increase in cost, not just the screen. In itself, more chips are needed for calculation, which is why early game consoles all had black and white screens. Snake uses color screens, which is also Chen Zhiwen's request.
With skillful operation, Woz quickly entered the game interface. After inserting a 25-cent coin into the entrance on the right, options popped up on the screen.
With skillful operation, Woz entered the game interface and saw a bar composed of several square blocks moving on the screen. The head of the block had a light red light, which could be seen at a glance. Snake's head.
Near the border of the screen, there is a wall formed by a circle of turning heads. The snake is constantly swimming around and cannot touch the surrounding walls. In between the screens, various kinds of luminous bricks will appear continuously, and none of them are eaten. , the snake's body will become longer, and the longer it is, the more troublesome it will be when turning, because when the body grows, the snake's head will easily hit its own body.
When the snake's body covered half of the screen, Woz's huge brain capacity and computing power were stunned, and he eventually lost to the game he made.
"Not bad, Woz, you have been playing for a long time, right?" Chen Zhiwen smiled and said, Woz's technique is definitely that of a master.
"I've been playing for three to five days and have been challenging the highest record." Woz said with a smile.
"It's good to play more. Although this game has been designed, there are still many areas that need to be optimized. These can only be understood when playing." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said. He only knew the rules of the game, but the details of the game For example, where is the most appropriate position for the prize to appear? These can only be known through a lot of experiments.
"How do you feel? Do you want to play a game?" Chen Zhiwen said to Lei Shengli.
