Chapter 1202 – Answering Reporters’ Questions (I)
“Fourth Mrs.?”
This phone number was relatively unfamiliar, and the person who called, even more so, Zhuang Rui was taken aback, listening to the slightly lethargic voice on the phone, the figure of the Fourth Mrs. surfaced in front of his eyes.
“Mr. Zhuang, it’s not easy to find you!” The fourth wife’s slightly scolding voice came over from the cell phone.
“Cough cough, Fourth Mrs., I’ve been rather busy lately, what is it that you’re looking for me …… for?”
Zhuang Rui didn’t want to get too close to the people in the Macau Gambling King’s lineage, as if every time he dealt with them, he always had to get into some trouble.
Old Four was set up to lose hundreds of millions of dollars in Macau, not to mention the fact that he helped them gamble a game and actually encountered a horrible incident? Now Zhuang Rui is still heartbroken about that genuine Xuande stove!
“Can’t I call you if there’s nothing wrong? Does Mr. Zhuang not want to answer my call?”
Listening to the fourth wife’s voice, Zhuang Rui’s body had a chill, please, if you were twenty years younger, maybe it would be more appropriate to use this tone of voice.
“So, Mrs. Four, I’m really busy lately, if it’s okay, let’s leave it at that!”
Zhuang Rui said and wanted to hang up the phone, although he still has a ten percent stake in this new gambling company in Macau, but Zhuang Rui is handed over to Huangfu Yun to take care of, he has never asked, and does not want to ask.
“Don’t, Mr. Zhuang, I’m not that inviting, am I?”
The Fourth Mrs.’s sultry voice came out, as if she was really afraid that Zhuang Rui would hang up the phone, and followed up by saying, “Mr. Zhuang, our new company opens next Saturday, and you, the major shareholder, must attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony at that time!”
The fourth wife also had a difficult time making this call, because this company belongs entirely to herself, and has been split from the property of the King of Gamblers, but in this way, many of the King of Gamblers’ resources, she can’t enjoy them either.
The reason why hard to invite Zhuang Rui, four Mrs. is afraid of the opening day someone to smash the scene, she now only invited to an over the top gambling king as the casino’s technical director, which is really a little uneasy in the heart, thinking, or Zhuang Rui invited to be able to calm the scene.
To know, although the Las Vegas gambling license dispute, has been over for some time, but Zhuang Rui in the world gambling reputation, but as the day, and has even become a legend of the gambling world.
Zhuang Rui in the country these days, has been subjected to a variety of harassment, are some casinos organized a variety of gambling competitions to invite him to participate in, engage in the Zhuang Rui annoyed, so to the attitude of the four Mrs., is not so friendly.
Zhuang Rui did not have the slightest awareness of being a shareholder of a new gambling company, and opened his mouth to say: ”Shitai ah! I have fully authorized my lawyer, Mr. Huangfu Yun, to attend the casino, he can attend in my place.”
Due to the fact that he really couldn’t push off the shares of the company given to him by Mrs. Four before, although Zhuang Rui took over the ten percent, it wasn’t a dry share because Zhuang Rui had invested all of the hundreds of millions of dollars that he had won in the United States.
If this money is not invested in the new casino in Macau, earlier Ouyang Zhenwu said that when the 1.5 billion, Zhuang Rui can easily come out.
Zhuang Rui did this because he didn’t want to get into a lot of trouble in the future because of eating ten percent of the dry shares, so after injecting the capital with real money, he and the fourth wife also had an agreement that he would only take the dividends and wouldn’t meddle in any of the casino’s affairs, including disputes such as the casino being kicked out of the building.
“Mr. Zhuang, it’s not a good idea for you as a shareholder not to come when the company opens at an unusual time, right? How about …… I ask Mr. He to call you?”
After the fourth wife heard Zhuang Rui’s soft words, she could only bring out the King of Gamblers.
“Don’t, Mr. He is so old, how can a latecomer afford his call? Alright, I’ll take a day to go over then!”
Zhuang Rui was a bit scared of that Mr. He, as the saying goes, people become smart with age, don’t look at that person all day long in a daze, if he calculates, he definitely kills people in an invisible way.
After hearing Zhuang Rui’s words, Mrs. Four’s pleasant voice laughed and said, “There’s no need to be so reluctant, it’s just an opening celebration, by the way, this time, the three new companies that competed for the gambling license will jointly organize a horse race with the Hong Kong Horse Racing Association, this is an event in Hong Kong and Macau!”
“Good, good, on the contrary, I will definitely participate.”
Zhuang Rui perfunctorily responded, he just wanted to end this call quickly, what horse racing or not, what does it have to do with him? There is that work Zhuang Rui might as well be at home with his wife and children, that is to say, these two months but he was suffocated.
However, Zhuang Rui does not know, Hong Kong horse racing, is indeed a very influential thing, at least in Hong Kong and Macao is so.
In Hong Kong, gambling is illegal, but betting on horse racing is the only legal in Hong Kong, but also the largest, most far-reaching, most popular gambling activity, it has become an integral part of the life of Hong Kong people.
On every race day, the rich and powerful, government officials, white-collar workers, citizens, and even visitors from all corners of the world come in droves to feel the frenzied atmosphere at the racecourse and to try their luck.
With the increasing popularization of horse betting activities, Hong Kong has also seen the emergence of a group of “horse experts” who specialize in “evaluating horses” for a living, and newspapers, radio stations and television stations have set up columns or special programs on “horse racing”. Newspapers, radio stations and television stations have also set up columns or specialized programmes on “horse experience”.
It can be said that, in addition to horse clubs and jockeys, those who benefit the most from horse betting activities are these “horse experts” who rely on “horse talk” and “horse evaluation” to make a living.
Zhuang Rui went to Hong Kong in the past, it is very incomprehensible, this Hong Kong television, often put on the evaluation of what the horse program, and even has always disliked gambling Qin Xuan Bing are watching with great interest.
Four Mrs. phone, just let Zhuang Rui feel a little annoyed, but this annoyance will soon be forgotten, because there is about the Genghis Khan Mausoleum unearthed press conference, will soon be held.
For this national excavation, the relevant departments are also very important, the conference is held in the Great Hall of the People in a conference room that can accommodate more than two hundred media at the same time, the specifications are very high.
In addition to the major domestic media, the foreign media that had applied to participate in this conference had reached more than one hundred, which meant that this press conference on Genghis Khan’s Mausoleum would be broadcast live at the same time in more than one hundred countries around the world.
“I say, can we not wear makeup? Why are you still applying something on this face?”
In a room of the Great Hall of the People, a person with a bitter face was sitting in front of the mirror, while a “person” whose gender was absolutely impossible to tell from his face alone was putting foundation on Zhuang Rui.
“Xiao Zhuang, we can represent the image of the country, look at me, I am more than forty years old, not the same still have to make up? Mi Mi has good skills, she won’t paint you messily.”
Sitting beside Zhuang Rui, is a forty-something middle-aged man, he is also the Ministry of Culture sent this spokesman, this morning’s time, Zhuang Rui are in and this director Liu to discuss the problems that will be encountered when the conference is carried out.
“Damn, if his old man had known that the son he gave birth to would grow up to be like this, he would have probably strangled him when he was born.”
Zhuang Rui from the mirror looked at the stage name called “Minnie”, but the chest flat without a knot in the throat of the “people”, quickly closed his eyes, he was afraid to see more than he can not stand to vomit out.
You say a big man has to dress up as this unmanly appearance, just now also crossed the orchid finger said Zhuang Rui good skin, if not know that he is a make-up artist, estimated Zhuang Rui has long been the old fist hit the past.
“Come on, this don’t, old Liu, if you give me this stuff to use, today’s conference you go to participate yourself!”
Seeing that Minnie took a lipstick, Zhuang Rui completely stormed out, this motherfucker is to participate in the press conference or masquerade ah? Don’t bring such a tosser.
“Cheng, Cheng, Mi Mi, it’s okay.”
That Director Liu is used to all this, at that moment, he held back a smile and stopped the make-up artist, saying, “Xiao Zhuang, remember, when the reporter asks a question, the speed of speech of the answer, it must be slowed down, so that there is time to deliberate on the statement, not to say something that should not be said.”
Taking the opportunity of make-up, Director Liu taught Zhuang Rui some related experience again, because Zhuang Rui who has not experienced the conference, is likely to say some untimely words under the tension, which is the big taboo of all conferences.
“Don’t worry! Director Liu, if I don’t know how to answer, I’ll just keep quiet.”
Zhuang Rui nodded, he is not a fledgling rash anymore, besides this conference, he is participating as the discoverer of Genghis Khan’s Mausoleum, the subsequent archaeological discoveries, he can completely push as unaware.
“Go! It’s almost time.” Director Liu looked at his watch and stood up to walk outside.
“Boy, this is quite a scene.”
After entering the venue of the press conference, Zhuang Rui and Director Liu both sat in front of the prepared seats, behind them was a projector screen, while in front of them were densely packed heads and various long guns.
“Ahem, welcome all media reporters to this reception.”
After speaking some official language, Director Liu directly introduced the topic to the main topic, “This gathering of all media friends is to announce a major archaeological discovery in our country, just two months ago, in our Inner Mongolia region, a Mongolian Imperial Tomb was discovered, and after examining the evidence, this is the tomb of the founding khan of the Mongol Khanate, who lived from 1162 to 1227 AD, Marco Polo Jilin- Temujin’s tomb.”
“Is it really Genghis Khan’s Mausoleum?”
“Could it be wrong? Didn’t we say that the Genghis Khan Mausoleum is in Outer Mongolia?”
“Evidence, we need evidence.”
In the official information released out before, it only said that this was a Mongolian emperor’s tomb, which is why the entire venue boiled over just after Director Liu’s words fell. It should be known that Genghis Khan’s influence was far more than just establishing the Mongol Khanate, the era he started changed the entire world pattern at that time.
