Chapter 1206 – Mindset
“Brother isn’t a star, as far as this is concerned?”
After getting into the car, Zhuang Rui looked at the torn newspaper in his hand and a scratch on his arm and said in annoyance, “There’s a fart benefit to being famous! Luckily I’m not a female, or else my whole body would have been touched all over.”
These things that Zhuang Rui said had indeed happened to female stars before, in some public occasions where there were more people, quite a few female stars had the experience of being assaulted on their breasts or having their asses touched.
“Brother Zhuang, you are full of people who don’t know how hungry they are, with your family, of course it doesn’t matter if you are famous or not, but those stars who are famous represent advertising, film and television as well as all kinds of endorsement opportunities, of course they want to break their heads to create news.”
Driving Peng Fei skimmed his mouth, on Zhuang Rui words are very unimpressed, these days whether it is handsome men and beautiful women, or like hibiscus phoenix that strange, in order to be famous by any means necessary, more people, to say the opposite, or for a “profit” word only.
Zhuang Rui heard silent down, Peng Fei said a little right, is his concept of change, these years of clothing and food days, let Zhuang Rui from the ordinary people’s life is also more and more far away, although he is still like before, like the street store in Beijing to eat breakfast, but the mentality and the previous is completely different.
Zhuang Rui inexplicably felt a bit annoyed and suddenly opened his mouth, “Peng Fei, if one day I decide to settle abroad, will you go?”
After driving Peng Fei heard this sentence, he looked at Zhuang Rui sitting on the co-pilot in surprise, after thinking for a while, he said, “As long as I can still run, wherever you are, Brother Zhuang, I will accompany you to wherever you are, and when I can’t run anymore I’ll just go home and keep my daughter-in-law for life.”
“What are you thinking?”
Zhuang Rui saw Peng Fei’s serious look, but laughed, “I am saying that in the future we go to live abroad for a period of time, you forget, I still have a private island over there in the Caribbean, but this is still our motherland, and will not not come back.”
This time somehow becoming a celebrity made Zhuang Rui a bit uninterested, he was trying to go out and hide for two years, waiting for the people in the country to pretty much forget about him before coming back.
Since receiving that island, Zhuang Rui has never had the chance to go and see it, Hu Rong has been there twice, according to him, it is simply heaven on earth, he even wanted to move all the people from the Burmese Overseas Chinese Town over there.
This made Zhuang Rui also have a lot of expectations in his heart, he and Qin Xuan Bing are both people who like quietness, not to mention that the area of the island is always much larger than his manor, more suitable for those of his partners to live.
“Brother Zhuang, going to that private island is nothing, but the old man’s side, what are you going to do?”
Peng Fei’s words caused Zhuang Rui to freeze for a moment, “Yeah! This running away by myself, in case something happens to Grandpa and Grandma’s health, how would that be?”
“I can’t bring them along?” Zhuang Rui was disheartened by Peng Fei’s words.
However, Zhuang Rui also knows that, not to mention going abroad, the old man now wants to go out of the Yuquan Mountain circle, will make the chickens fly, want to let the old man to go abroad to his private island, almost is an impossible thing to accomplish.
Peng Fei parked his car in the parking lot of the Tianjin Port Pier, and went with Zhuang Rui to the pier, where a speedboat that had been waiting there for a long time, picked up the two of them and headed towards the huge cruise ship in the distance.
“Hi dear boss, it’s such a delight to see you, you’ve finally thought of your loyal employees.”
Zhuang Rui just rode the elevator to the deck, the bearded captain greeted him, that stream of flattery made Zhuang Rui’s goosebumps rise up, and said without a trace of humor, “I say Captain Clyde, this period of time didn’t underpay you, did it?”
Zhuang Rui heard that this old guy recently lived a very nourishing, and even bought a set of houses in Tianjin, this is how actually become a yin and yang?
“Oh, of course, boss you are the most generous person in the world, but …… we were talking about going to the four seas to salvage those unknown treasures ah! But now ……”
Clyde is very satisfied with Zhuang Rui’s salary, even though this cruise ship has been parked in Tianjin port for nearly half a year, he has not lost a penny, and also got his second spring in Tianjin, met a beautiful Tianjin girl.
But Clyde, who boasted that he was born to be a navigator, although he was already more than fifty years old, the adventurous spirit of his ancestors still flowed in his blood, and for what Zhuang Rui said about salvaging oceanic wrecks, he had always been unforgettable.
Facing the bearded captain who was as fervent as a young man in his early twenties, Zhuang Rui smiled bitterly, “Clyde, I also want to set sail right away to salvage those shipwrecks.”
“Oh, that’s great, the ship’s reserve fuel is enough for us to go into the depths of the Pacific Ocean, ah! What an exhilarating piece of news is this?”
Before Zhuang Rui finished his words, he was interrupted by Clyde, excitedly waving his hands, completely missing the bitter smile on Zhuang Rui’s face.
“I say, Mr. Clyde, why don’t you let me finish my sentence!”
Zhuang Rui looked at the bearded captain helplessly, he was totally unaware that in the Chinese art of speech, there is usually still a but, “Claude, there are a lot of things in this world that you can’t choose for yourself, in the near future, I might go with you to look for trouble with those ocean wrecks, but right now, I have more important things to do.”
“Oh, boss, well! I guess that day will come soon, right?”
Clyde didn’t hide the look of disappointment on his face; only by moving forward in the ocean in the midst of the raging winds and waves could Clyde find the meaning of his life.
“Well, for that, I also believe that Captain Clyde, soon you will be able to show your skills.”
Zhuang Rui felt that he was getting more and more hypocritical now, snubbing this straight Irishman, surprisingly without the slightest sense of guilt, well! It was just a good intentioned lie.
“Alright boss, let’s set sail for Hong Kong now, I kind of miss Macau too.”
Although it wasn’t a deep ocean voyage, but it was finally time to leave the harbor and enter the real sea, Clyde saluted Zhuang Rui with a sailor’s salute and went to arrange for the cruise ship to set sail.
After the bearded captain was taken care of, Zhuang Rui had the chance to see his wife and son, the sea was not so hot in summer, the two little ones were frolicking on the deck, for the two little elves that were carved like powder, the crew on the cruise ship were very fond of them.
King Kong, on the other hand, was doing something that made Zhuang Rui laugh and cry, this big guy liked to mimic every action it had ever seen, this time it was constantly harassing Wind Chaser, that meant it wanted to follow Zhuang Rui’s example and ride on Wind Chaser to skate around so much.
“King Kong, come here, if you harass Chasing Wind again, you won’t be able to eat barbecue meat for a year.” Seeing this situation, Zhuang Rui didn’t care to greet Qin Xuan Bing and rushed up to pull King Kong back.
The poor chasing wind kept dodging King Kong, but although the deck was big, it was always on a boat! This will have already been forced to the bow of the ship, if Zhuang Rui is not coming, may have to make some kind of mess!
“Oo…… ow……”
After hearing Zhuang Rui’s words, King Kong immediately obediently followed behind Zhuang Rui, face fawning expression and just now the bearded captain have a spell.
It should be known that King Kong’s favorite food was roasted meat, although it was very smart and would flip the meat on the grill, but there was one thing, King Kong, it didn’t know how to build a fire ah! Before Zhuang Rui so punished it once, King Kong stole the fire engine from the kitchen, want to light a fire to roast meat.
But I did not expect the fire was lit up, but the hair on the body of the King Kong, but also was burned a seven and a half, from then on, ate the bitter head of the King Kong for the threat of not grilled meat to eat, has always been submissive.
These months Zhuang Rui are working in the underground narrow place, now come to the ship, looking at the vast sea, the mood is also much more relaxed, the reason why he did not take the plane to Hong Kong, is that he wants to relax in this voyage.
And the early last century is different, now the cruise ship passenger transport, has long been replaced by aircraft and trains, basically has been out of the ranks of modern transportation, only Zhuang Rui can take the ship from Tianjin directly to Hong Kong.
After a day of sea voyage, the huge cruise ship slowly sailed into the Hong Kong Victoria Harbor, although there are many luxury cruise ships moored here, but was transformed somewhat unorthodox Xuan Rui ship’s arrival, but still attracted a lot of attention.
Zhuang Rui did not take the cruise ship on the helicopter, but into the old man waiting in the harbor at the fleet, yes, is the fleet, because in addition to Zhuang Rui and other “people” in addition to the King Kong and chasing the wind are to ride a separate car.
The reason why the wind chasing to Hong Kong, but also because the old man heard that Zhuang Rui to get a horse sweat blood horse, must let Zhuang Rui to bring it, Zhuang Rui or the first time I know, the old man actually in addition to jewelry, there is also the hobby of horse racing.
In Hong Kong and some European countries, private horse breeding often represents a noble identity, and if the horse they keep can win good results in horse racing, it will be a very honorable thing.
For example, Sir Alex Ferguson, the manager of Manchester United, is more proud of the fact that he has a champion racehorse called Rock of Gibraltar than of the many honors he has received for coaching Manchester United, and in 2004 Ferguson even fought a long-drawn-out lawsuit with the team’s major shareholders over the ownership of the racehorse. In 2004, Ferguson was involved in a lengthy legal battle with the team’s majority shareholder over the ownership of the horse.
Of course, the racehorse earned him no less than 100 million pounds in various races, and was the main reason why Sir Alex Ferguson and the team owner went to court, right?
The old man’s villa in Hong Kong has a special horse gallery, and in the first few years the old man had a racehorse, but in recent years his energy was a little weak, and that horse was transferred out by him.
