Chapter 43 Recommended to join the Hong Kong Jockey Club!
Yang Ming, Kayla, Shen Bi, and Mr. Xia looked out the window.
Like this horse race.
One half an hour.
Half an hour later, the second game started again.
Watching the game, you will definitely be hungry if you haven’t had lunch yet.
Hong Kong Happy Valley Competition provides drinks, catering and other services.
There are even five-star hotels nearby.
Yang Ming, Kayla, Shen Bi, and Mr. Xia were drinking coffee at the VIP table.
During this period, we also tasted the desserts brought by the waitress.
From the second horse race on, Yang Ming, Mr. Xia, and Shen Bi stopped guessing the results. They just watched and occasionally chatted.
There are eight races in total.
At around 17:00 in the afternoon, today’s horse racing officially ended.
As the host, Shen Bi invited Yang Ming and Mr. Xia to have dinner together.
Like the Hong Kong Jockey Club, it provides food, including Western and Chinese food.
Come to the luxurious western restaurant of Hong Kong Jockey Club.
Yang Ming, Shen Bi, Kaila, and Mr. Xia sat aside.
Azhu and Zhong Chuhong were waiting outside.
When the waiter brought over rich Western food, there were also two bottles of Bordeaux red wine.
Although it is not a famous wine like Lafite, it should not be bad.
"cheers!"
Yang Ming, Kaila, Shen Bi, and Mr. Xia picked up their wine glasses and drank half a glass each.
period.
Yang Ming is sitting in a wheelchair and does not eat like other normal people. However, now he can hold a knife and fork by himself, but he eats more slowly.
In Keira's view, Yang Ming seemed very gentle and polite, like a Western gentleman.
From the perspective of Shen Bi and Mr. Xia, Yang Ming was trained in aristocratic etiquette.
Before this, Yang Ming and the Yang family were not well known.
Shen Yi knew very well that now Yang Ming not only owned his own Empire Group, but also had billions of Hong Kong dollars in Huifeng Bank.
If Yang Ming is not the richest person in Hong Kong, he is definitely one of the top rich people in Hong Kong.
"Mr. Yang, I wonder if you are interested in joining our Xiangjiang Jockey Club?"
It can be said that the Hong Kong Jockey Club is one of the most prestigious clubs in Hong Kong.
Jockey Club membership is highly respected, and all members who apply for membership must be recommended by selected members. The Jockey Club has a total of 200 selected members, and there is a limit on the number of recommended members each year.
Before this, the members of the Jockey Club in Hong Kong were basically all white people.
Later, some Hong Kong wealthy people who developed as compradors also joined.
With the rise of Chinese capital, more Hong Kong Chinese wealthy or influential Chinese have joined the Hong Kong Jockey Club.
However, no matter who wants to join the Hong Kong Jockey Club, they must be recommended by a formal member.
Mr. Xia is now the CEO of the Hong Kong Jockey Club, and he can directly recommend new members to join.
Shen Yan is also the vice president of the Hong Kong Jockey Club and one of the club's twelve directors. He can also recommend Yang Ming to join the Jockey Club.
Jockey Club?
Isn't it just a clubhouse for the upper class in Hong Kong?
Even then, there are only a few thousand members of the Hong Kong Jockey Club now, and there are already more than 4 million people in Hong Kong. It is conceivable that those who can join the Hong Kong Jockey Club have a lot of status.
In his previous life, Yang Ming knew that the Xiangjiang Jockey Club had grown to 20,000 to 30,000 members. At that time, the population of Xiangjiang soared to more than 7 million.
At that time, someone also recommended Yang Ming, but Yang Ming did not join in the end.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Xia now personally recommended him to join the Hong Kong Jockey Club.
If Yang Ming refuses.
Of course he is a fool.
In any case, joining the Hong Kong Jockey Club is an important means of integrating into the upper class of Hong Kong.
Even people like Keira may not have the chance to join yet.
"Mr. Xia, do you mean to become a formal member of the Jockey Club?"
"Yes, for young talents like Mr. Yang, we very much hope that you will join and become one of us." Mr. Xia said.
Yang Ming guessed that this might be what Shen Bi meant.
It may also be a means for these Y people to manage Hong Kong and win over the Chinese elite in Hong Kong.
"Thank you Mr. Xia for the invitation. I am willing to join the Hong Kong Jockey Club."
"Mr. Yang, since you agree, it's no problem. Become a member and I will do it for you personally."
period.
Mr. Xia left first.
Yang Ming, Kayla and Shen Bi are left here.
Keira doesn't seem like a middle-of-the-road person.
She is an ordinary manager of Huifeng Bank. Because she is familiar with Yang Ming, Shen Bi first got to know Yang Ming through her.
Yang Ming didn't say anything.
He knew that Shen Bi's purpose in inviting him was not simple.
"Chairman, the steak here is really good."
Kayla may have felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so she said.
"Mr. Shen, the steak here is really good. Eat more."
Because these Western food are different from Chinese food, each person has his own portion, and there is no need for everyone to share the food, which makes people feel much cleaner.
Yang Ming knew that it was convenient for him to eat with a knife and fork there.
Mr. Xia left on purpose just now. He originally wanted Yang Ming and Shen Bi to talk business alone. But now that Shen Bi didn't take the initiative to say it, it seemed to Shen Bi that Yang Ming didn't guess why the other party invited him?
This Western meal is indeed very rich.
During this period, Yang Ming, Shen Bi and Kayla drank two more glasses of red wine.
"Mr. Yang, I'm very happy to meet you today." Shen Bi said.
"Mr. Shen, me too."
Shen Bi didn't talk formally, and Yang Ming wasn't in a hurry.
Anyway, now it is Shen Bi who wants something from him, not him who wants something from Shen Bi.
Yang Ming had already set his sights on the 90 million shares of Hutchison International held by Huifeng Bank, but Yang Ming was very confident that Shen Bi would be willing to hand it over when the time came.
The time came to 17:45 in the afternoon.
Mr. Xia, who had been out for a while, came over again.
"Mr. Yang, congratulations, you are now an official member of our Xiangjiang Jockey Club."
Just now, in addition to giving Yang Ming and Shen Bi time to talk, Mr. Xia personally went to have Yang Ming join the Xiangjiang Jockey Club.
Yang Ming is just an ordinary Jockey Club member. In Mr. Xia's opinion, with Yang Ming's identity, wealth and status, it will not be difficult to become a director of the Hong Kong Jockey Club in the future.
As for Yang Ming's membership fee and monthly membership fee, Shen Bi had already told Mr. Xia before coming that he would pay for it.
"Thank you Mr. Xia and Mr. Shen for the recommendation." Yang Ming said.
When dinner is over.
Yang Ming knew that today's first meeting with Shen Bi was over.
Neither of them talked about business. Mr. Xia and Shen Bi even gave him a watch and invited Yang Ming to join the Hong Kong Jockey Club and become an official Jockey Club member.
At this point, he has become closer to Yang Ming.
When Yang Ming was about to leave, he exchanged home landline numbers with each other, Mr.
Kayla and Mr. Xia, Shen Bi said, followed.
