America’s Road To Wealth

v2 Chapter 451: Smith

  Chapter 451 Smith who is regarded as the God of Wealth

  When Chen Xiuli and Guo Feili said they wanted to immigrate, their tone was very rigid.

   But when things really come to the fore.

  This Malaysian Chinese actress still chose to compromise.

  Her family used to live in Malaysia, and their lives were very ordinary.

  It wasn't until she made her debut and became a moderate star that her family became richer day by day.

  The seven members of the family moved to Singapore to live here because of her.

  In fact, if possible, Malaysian Chinese below the wealthy class can choose the metropolis and choose to live and develop in Singapore.

   Firstly, Singapore itself is the most prosperous city and country in Southeast Asia.

  It is very attractive to Chinese and other ethnic groups.

   This is normal, most human beings yearn for life in a modern metropolis.

  Secondly, the main body that dominates this country has always been Chinese since the founding of the country.

  The latter point is very attractive to Malaysian Chinese who have always been discriminated against and excluded everywhere. Even the diplomas of Chinese schools are not recognized by the country.

  A family can immigrate from Malaysia to Singapore, or even just live and work here.

  For Malaysian Chinese below the wealthy class, it is almost equivalent to mainlanders in the 1980s and 1990s. The whole family can go to Hong Kong Island to live.

  Chen Xiuli's family has been in Singapore for almost two years.

  Because she is a star after all, and her family is working hard enough.

  Her family is about to obtain Singapore resident qualifications, and these two to three years are a critical inspection period.

  Chen Xiuli dare not imagine.

  If it is because of my own reasons.

  If the whole family cannot obtain the resident status, they may be expelled from Singapore.

  What a terrible scene that would be.

  So for my family, but also for my own stardom.

  Chen Xiuli is the same as more than a dozen other well-known actresses, models, and beauty pageant champions in Southeast Asia.

  They all chose to submit and obey in the end.

  They went through an afternoon of special training, learning how to be maids and how to please men.

   Well, the latter, many of them know a little bit.

   After all, the industry they are engaged in is more or less related to the big quagmire of the entertainment industry.

  Women in the entertainment industry, except for a very few individuals, most of them are very good at pleasing men.

  After the training, they were dressed in the distinctive costumes of various ethnic groups in Southeast Asia.

   Then, under arrangement, she entered the most luxurious beach villa near Siloso Beach to act as a maid and maid.

  As long as the distinguished guests stay in Singapore, they will also stay here as long as possible.

  Chen Xiuli is wearing the special costume of "Bahrain and Nyonya".

  Panakan and Nyonya is a unique mixed ethnic group in Southeast Asia.

  It is the descendant of Chinese who settled in Malaga, Majapahit and Srivijaya in the early fifteenth century. It is the descendant of the combination of ancient Chinese immigrants and aborigines.

  Because most of them are Chinese fathers, the culture and habits of this ethnic group are very similar to Chinese, and can be regarded as a branch of Chinese.

  Only in ancient times, because of their mixed-race identity, this ethnic group was neither welcomed by the Chinese nor the aboriginals, and their identity was very embarrassing.

  Chen Xiuli is actually not a Peranakan Nyonya, she is a local pure-blooded Chinese.

   This is the local name for Chinese descendants whose ancestors are all Chinese intermarriages.

  Don’t look at the TV series in Southeast Asia, they play the Peranakan and Nyonya very well.

  But in fact, this group had a very low status in the past.

  However, Chen Xiuli wears this kind of clothes only for the sake of appearance, it does not mean that she is a Peranakan.

   And even if she doesn't want to wear it.

  Chen Xiuli was reluctant, but at the same time she was extremely curious about who the distinguished guest was.

   They were able to order the authorities in Singapore to ask these well-known women to do this kind of thing.

   This evening.

   After getting dressed, Chen Xiuli and Guo Feili were brought by the European and American maids in the villa and started their work.

  Because they are younger and more beautiful, Chen Xiuli and Guo Feili were able to serve in the living room of the villa under the guidance of four European and American maids.

  When she was full of curiosity, with a pair of beautiful big eyes looking around without moving her head, she entered the living room of the manor villa.

The scene inside    surprised Chen Xiuli, her beautiful eyes widened.

  Because it's on the sofa in this living room.

  She met the most official public figure on TV in Singapore.

  Singapore No. 1 character, big boss!

  See Mr. Li who is full of white hair and laughing.

  At this moment, Chen Xiuli and Guo Feili's eyes are straight.

  They heard Chief Li talking to a tall young foreign man in a respectful and even flattering tone that was unfamiliar to them.

   "Mr. Smith, I am so envious of Hong Kong Island. Your appearance has made Hong Kong Island's Hang Seng Index rise by almost 8.9% in the past half month!"

   "It's almost reaching 10%! It's really worthy of you and Mr. Smith. In our Chinese words, you are simply the God of Wealth. But I said that the name of God of Wealth should be replaced by yours."

  Boss Li spoke English, very fluent throughout, with a full Oxford accent.

  Oxford accent is the most standard accent of British English.

   Various English tapes for learning British English abroad in the UK, as well as the accent used by the BBC, are basically this Oxford accent.

  In Singapore and Malaysia, it is not surprising to be able to speak English and speak English well.

  Being able to speak in an Oxford accent so standard, Boss Li obviously learned it hard.

   But now, what Chen Xiuli and Guo Feili are curious about is not that Boss Li's Oxford accent is very standard.

   It's about what kind of person can make Boss Li speak and treat him in such a tone.

   You must know that although Singapore is a small country, it is very active in the international arena because of its developed economy.

   There is also a very important strait.

  The combination of these conditions gives Singapore Singapore a strong influence and voice in Southeast Asia.

  Leader Li himself is of a very high status among the leaders of the entire Southeast Asian region because of his ability.

   Such a big man, actually treats such a young foreigner like this.

  The attention of Chen Xiuli and Guo Feili were all attracted by the foreign man in front of Chief Li.

  I saw that the man looked very tall at first glance, sitting on the sofa, he was more than two heads taller than Boss Li.

   But what is more striking is not the height of this foreign man, but his appearance.

  At first glance, Chen Xiuli felt that he was even more handsome than Leonardo, who became popular in Southeast Asia a few years ago because of the Titanic.

   At the second glance, Chen Xiuli felt that he looked familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere herself.

  Just as she was thinking carefully, trying to remember where she was, she had seen this foreign man.

  She heard Guo Feili next to her and called out very softly.

"ah-"

   The sound is very small, but it is still clearly visible in a quiet living room.

   Both the man and Chief Li turned their heads to look over.

  Because of Boss Li's majestic gaze, Chen Xiuli was so frightened that her legs straightened.

  Facing the gazes of the two of them, Guo Feili, who made a sound, even had a crying voice, bowing down and apologizing softly.

  Boss Li, who was smiling just now, now has a majestic expression on his face.

  Even if she didn't face her face to face, Chen Xiuli felt that her heart would stop beating.

  At this time, they heard the extremely handsome foreign man chuckle, "Harry, it's not as exaggerated as you said. The Hang Seng Index on Hong Kong Island can rise so fast, I don't have that much credit."

  When Chen Xiuli saw his voice, she attracted Boss Li's attention.

  One of the big figures in Southeast Asia, immediately had that kind of gentle and humble tone.

   This made her breathe a sigh of relief, and Guo Feili, who made a mistake next to her, looked at the foreign man gratefully.

   "This is obvious to all. Mr. Smith, the data will not lie. Before you came, the Hang Seng Index did not rise so fast."

  Seeing that Boss Li insisted on saying this, Abel could only smile and shake his head slightly.

  Tonight, Chief Li came to visit again.

  At the same time as the visit, he also sent a group of Singaporean and Southeast Asian-style maids.

  After coming to Singapore for the past few days, Abel only felt that this old man was too good-natured.

  Although Abel knows that 99% of the old man's "uprightness" is because of himself, the core figure of a large consortium in the United States.

  But I have to say, because of the extremely high EQ and deep knowledge of Western culture. The old man's "going up the road" not only won't make Abel feel uncomfortable, but also makes him feel very happy.

   The ability to "make big things happen" and being able to do this to this extent must be said to be a talent.

  So Abel stayed at the villa to have dinner with him tonight.

   After lunch, the two chatted in the living room.

   While chatting, Boss Li brought up the topic of Hong Kong Island's Hang Seng Index, which has risen by nearly 10% in the past week.

More importantly, this surge in the Hang Seng Index started just a week ago when Hong Kong Island media reported that the world's richest man visited Hong Kong Island and chatted happily with the rich and elite in Hong Kong Island. up.

   Afterwards, most of the Hong Kong Island media gave the credit for the soaring Hang Seng Index to Abel.

  These media are saying that it is precisely because of Abel’s remarks that he is extremely optimistic about the future of Hong Kong Island when he visited Xiangjiang.

  The remarks made by the richest man in the world have caused a lot of international funds to pour into Hong Kong Island.

  The influx of foreign funds quickly increased the value of Hong Kong stocks.

  Hang Seng Index soared up.

   Later, it rose a lot, and some media even compared Abel with the God of Wealth in the Chinese pantheon.

  It is said that he is the God of Wealth of the Hong Kong Island stock market and stockholders.

  In short, both official and non-governmental media have praised him.

   This is what Boss Li was chatting with Abel just now.

  Actually, Abel knew very well that this surge in the Hang Seng Index may be partially due to his own credit.

   Because of the title of the richest man in the world, it is more or less a plaque.

  In the field of wealth, there is still influence.

  It's like Wang Duoyu had a meal with the stock **** once, and all the stocks he bought went up.

   But in the final analysis, the more important reason is that in the past two years, the whole of Asia has been in the trough period after the stock market crisis.

  Hong Kong Island has just recovered from the last crisis in the past two years.

   During this period of time, the stock market on Hong Kong Island has actually recovered, but because of the previous blow too hard, the overall confidence is low.

  Abel’s visit and speech can be regarded as a stimulant for the Hong Kong Island stock market that has recovered its strength and re-established confidence.

  In addition, there are indeed some international hot money, and I feel that the purpose of Abel's visit to Hong Kong Island is not pure.

  They think this may be a prelude to Abel's plan to attack the Hong Kong Island stock market.

  The predators on Wall Street have always made a speech about something that they are optimistic about, and then they hate this thing.

  Thinking that Abel is like this, they want to make money, so they quietly let part of the funds enter the Hong Kong Island stock market.

  Even Soros secretly put in some funds...

  A combination of various factors finally caused the Hang Seng Index to skyrocket for a week after Abel made his public appearance on Hong Kong Island.

   "Harry, you keep saying this. Do you want me to show up in Singapore too?"

   Abel looked at Chief Li and said with a smile.

  Boss Li has several foreign names, but only one English name, which is HARRY.

   This is the English name given to him by his father. At that time, Singapore and Malaysia were still the territories of the British.

   On the first day the two met, Boss Li insisted that Abel call him by his English name.

   And himself, he kept calling Mr. Smith to Abel.

   "It would be great if I could."

  Boss Li looked surprised, "Singapore Stock Exchange also wants to experience the happiness of Hong Kong Stock Exchange."

  The financial services industry in Singapore, a tiny place, is doing very well.

  Singapore Securities Exchange ranks 4th in Asia after Tokyo, Hong Kong Island, and Shanghai.

  In this day and age, it occasionally surpasses the Shanghai Metropolis and ranks third. It can already be called an international financial city.

   Seeing Chief Li like this, Abel pondered for a while, and then gave a reply:

"It's not impossible... Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, Harry, you arrange for your media to interview me. But I can't guarantee that the KOSPI index in Singapore will rise like the Hang Seng Index. I still insist that the Hang Seng Index The skyrocketing is not my fault.”

  Since there is a stock market, the financial development is not bad.

  Singapore also has its stock market index. The Chinese name is FTSE-Singapore Index, or FTSE Strait Index.

There is basically no difference between the    model and stock indexes in other countries.

  Boss Li was a little disappointed, what he wanted was Abel's public televised speech.

  In that case, it will look more grand than Abel’s speech on Hong Kong Island.

  Singapore can be allowed to overwhelm Hong Kong Island here.

  And this has always been what Boss Li insisted on doing-yes, it is to overwhelm Hong Kong Island!

  As the leader of Singapore, Leader Li has always understood.

  In Southeast Asia, Singapore's biggest competitor is Hong Kong Island.

  The problem is that compared to Hong Kong Island, Singapore is far inferior in many aspects.

  The area is not as big as others, the population is not as large as others, and the backing is not as strong as others.

   It can be said that apart from a strait, Singapore has no place comparable to Hong Kong Island in terms of natural conditions.

   Even with the addition of the Strait, Singapore is no match for Hong Kong Island.

  Because Xiangjiang is backed by mountains, it has one of the largest markets in the world.

  That market is simply too huge.

  The kind that is bigger than Malaysia, or even the whole of Southeast Asia combined.

  Businessmen on Hong Kong Island are not only free from discrimination and exclusion.

   Instead, it has been popular for a long time.

  On the contrary, Singaporean businessmen are not welcome to go to other places except in Singapore...

   In this way, Singapore can develop similarly to Hong Kong Island.

  Tut tsk tsk...

   Media access Media access is better than nothing.

  Thinking of this, Chief Li smiled and began to thank Abel.

   Chatted for a while, around eight o'clock in the evening.

  Leader Li stood up very strikingly, smiled at Abel and said:

   "Thank you very much Mr. Smith for your dinner, excuse me."

"You're welcome. Instead I'd like to thank Harry for your hospitality. Next time you're in America, you're welcome to Texas or New York. Oh, and Los Angeles is fine too. I'll treat you well at my place , as you are doing now."

   "No problem." Leader Li smiled very happily.

   At the same time, I was thinking of the names of these three places.

  Texas, New York, Los Angeles.

   Sure enough, these places are where he has the greatest influence.

  Thinking of this, Chief Li smiled and left.

  He didn't look at Chen Xiuli and Guo Feili the whole time.

  But it put more pressure on them.

  Because at this moment, they already know who the "guests" in Singapore are.

   It turned out to be Abel Smith, the richest man in the world from the United States!

   No wonder I seem to have seen it somewhere. His photos often appear in newspapers and various high-end magazines.

  Chen Xiuli still remembers being amazed by his photo the first few times she saw it.

  She thought it was from Hollywood, some new super handsome guy, super ball grass.

   In the end, he turned out to be the richest man in the world and the super rich man in the United States.

   And now such a very handsome super rich man, in front of him, chatted for so long with the celestial boss Li in his heart.

  At noon and afternoon, Chen Xiuli, who was still aggrieved in her heart, was already numb by now.

   While Chen Xiuli was feeling very nervous, not long after Chief Li disappeared.

  She saw a strong female foreigner who possessed herself and said something in Abel's ear.

  Abel nodded, and then his eyes moved to her and Guo Feili.

   "You are not being coerced, are you? If someone is coercing you, tell me. I will help you and let you go."

  I saw him looking at himself, and then said this to himself.

  Chen Xiuli's mood became tense, and she wanted to answer nonsense.

  Before she opened her mouth, she heard Guo Feili, who had lost her composure just now, responded to Abel in a low voice:

   "No, sir...we are all voluntary."

   "You promise? This is my last chance for you."

   "I promise, at least I promise that I am voluntary."

  After hearing Guo Feili's answer, Abel's eyes fell on himself.

  Chen Xiuli thought to herself, so what if it was involuntary?

  Everyone who comes in here, who dare not volunteer?

  She worked hard to show her acting skills, trying her best to make herself appear submissive and gentle, showing her femininity to the greatest extent like a man.

   "Yes sir, I volunteered too..."

  The voice is soft and greasy.

  Chen Xiuli was so tired that she doubted, was this really her own voice?

  It sounds so sweet!

  Abel nodded in satisfaction, then smiled and said:

   "Well, I had someone prepare some clothes just now. Go down and change, let's meet again later."

  Guo Feili and Chen Xiuli can only be of course.

   Then two hours later, they put on the costumes of the two female characters in the TV series they participated in shooting in the Mainland not long ago.

  Wearing costumes, they appeared in front of Abel who had just come out of the safe house and also changed his clothes.

   Together with them, there is Lin Xiangping who has just finished filming "Lotus Lantern".

  The three of them were all wearing costumes from their respective plays, and they also found that the opposite Abel was also wearing costumes.

   is just an American, wearing ancient Chinese clothes. No matter how handsome he is, he still looks somewhat nondescript.

  Just when they were nervous, they heard him say:

   "From now on, don't think of me as Abel Smith. You have to think of me... well, as Xie Xun and Yang Jian."

  They were even more surprised.

   Because Abel is not speaking English this time.

   is their mother tongue, the Chinese language known as Guoyu in Southeast Asia.

   Then, Xie Xun/Yang Jian rushed towards Yin Susu, Xiao Zhao and Ding Xiang...

  In their screams.

  Abel happily experienced his childhood feelings.
