UBS's headquarters in Hong Kong is located in the new building of Guojin Center, which is the third tallest building in the world so far and is also a symbol of Hong Kong's wealth.

Standing in front of the building, Yan Xiaoqin looked up and felt a little dazed.

Chen Qiaoshan asked, "You didn't prepare evening dresses when you go to the dinner in the evening. Should we go to the Guojin Center Mall, or go to the boutique store downstairs of the hotel?"

Yan Xiaoqin was a little annoyed, "I had known I was going to go to a formal occasion, so I should have brought one. I visited Pacific Plaza with Sister Chang the day before yesterday. There were luxury goods stores there, and the price of clothes looked scary."

The Hong Kong Li Hotel is actually Hilton, located in the Queensway of the commercial hub of Hong Kong. The downstairs is Pacific Plaza. It is a shopping paradise in Hong Kong. It is one of the top ten shopping destinations in the world. It has a gathering of luxury brands, so the price is naturally very touching.

Chen Qiaoshan was still very enlightened, "Then go to Taikoo, we will buy whatever we like. I am short of everything now, but I don't lack money. You have to learn from Xiaowu and don't save me money."

"You brother is a good brother, and you're running Xiaowu all day long, aren't you afraid that she will cause trouble for you?"

"I don't say anything, and she's causing me a lot."

…………

Chen Qiaoshan accompanied him for a long time, and Yan Xiaoqin carefully selected a set of matching matches, but she didn't spend much money. Coast's small dress, paired with nude pink high heels, exposed shoulders, slender legs, and no luxury in her body, but her temperament made her more outstanding.

No woman doesn't like beauty, and Yan Xiaoqin is no exception. She looked at herself in the mirror and was very satisfied.

"By the way, why choose a high interest rate when you pledge your loan?"

Chen Qiaoshan had known about this question, and he explained: "Eliot was not kind. He concealed some sensitive news. The RMB was under great pressure to appreciate. Senior officials of the US Department of Commerce have been running to Yanjing in the past few months. The US Treasury Secretary even publicly threatened to include China in the exchange rate operation country in order to force the RMB to appreciate."

Seeing that Yan Xiaoqin still didn't understand, Chen Qiaoshan simply changed his statement: "The same value is 100 US dollars. I borrow RMB at the moment and pay it back next year. It may be worth 105 US dollars. This part of the exchange rate loss is more than ten times higher than the interest rate of a few thousandths. Elliot must know that the international market is bullish on the renminbi against the US dollar. He is trying to pass on the risk."

Yan Xiaoqin understood this time, and she asked curiously again: "Will the appreciation of the RMB really be so large?"

"Who knows?" Chen Qiaoshan did not answer positively. The United States and the European Union are pressing step by step, and the RMB exchange rate reform is near.

Since 1995, the domestic exchange rate has been closely watching the US dollar. Now it has reached its end. Facing international pressure, on July 21, 2005, the central bank suddenly announced that the RMB has appreciated by 2.1% against the US dollar at one time. Since then, China has begun to implement a floating exchange rate system.

Chen Qiaoshan knew very well that there would be a climax of arranging stock exchange next summer. He naturally could not miss such a good opportunity.

…………

The Peninsula Hotel held a cocktail party tonight. The Kadori family is one of the only ten non-Chinese richest people in Hong Kong. If you want to know the influence of this ghost family, just look at it. China Power Company controlled by the Kadori family holds 20% of the Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant, and you can imagine the energy.

The Peninsula Hotel is located in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, opposite Victoria Harbour. It was once selected as one of the top ten hotels in the world, and the environment is excellent.

The cocktail party was held in the Lis Hall of the Peninsula Hotel. An invitation letter was presented. Under the guidance of the waiter, Chen Qiaoshan and Yan Xiaoqin entered the venue.

The entire venue is quite large, with three or four hundred square meters in appearance, very spacious. Although the host has not appeared and the reception has not officially started, the atmosphere in the hall is already very lively.

Tonight is a self-service cocktail party, which provides a good opportunity to communicate.

Yan Xiaoqin asked curiously: "What is the theme of tonight's cocktail party?"

"Wait and see, the owner will announce it naturally when he comes out."

The Jiadaoli family has a big family and the Peninsula Hotel is their property. It must be that simple tonight. Chen Qiaoshan glanced at the entire banquet hall without hesitation. Unfortunately, no one knew each other, and there was not even a familiar one.

Except for foreigners, the Chinese faces around them speak pure Cantonese, and Chen Qiaoshan couldn't understand a single sentence. He even wanted to interrupt, but he didn't have a chance.

Fortunately, the host didn't wait long, and soon he went on stage to send a toast. The two of them realized that they were going to be there tonight, and there was an auction in the middle.

The ghost-man who was giving a speech on the stage was the new head of the Jiadaoli family. Chen Qiaoshan took a few glances and diverted his attention.

All the women attending the banquet had exquisite makeup, and Yan Xiaoqin was no exception. Although she rarely put on makeup, she was dressed brightly and charming today, especially her pair of smart eyes, which made her look a lot more beautiful.

Chen Qiaoshan has a relaxed mentality, but Yan Xiaoqin is a little restrained.

Including the Tsinghua Institute of A, this is her second time attending a dinner. Relatively speaking, Tsinghua's specifications are higher, but this place makes her a little uncomfortable.

"I would have known that I wouldn't have come to join in the fun." Yan Xiaoqin complained in a low voice, and Chen Qiaoshan smiled and said, "Why, aren't you used to it?"

The two of them used Dengzhou dialect, and they didn't want outsiders to listen to it. The people around them couldn't even understand Mandarin, let alone dialect.

Yan Xiaoqin nodded, "The dinner at Tsinghua Economic Management last time was not so boring."

After the toast was finished, the party suddenly became relaxed. The people in the venue quickly formed small circles, gathering together to talk about topics of interest.

Chen Qiaoshan had no scruples at this time. He brought two cups of red, handed them to Yan Xiaoqin, and said, "I'll tell you a joke."

"Okay." Yan Xiaoqin became interested. Just by opening his mouth, a few fresh words popped up from time to time, and sometimes it was quite Coke.

Chen Qiaoshan asked, "Do you still remember that Zhou Rui?"

"Why don't you remember?" Yan Xiaoqin was a little angry when she mentioned the man. She was rescued. Not only did she not be grateful, but she also repaid her hatred.

Although the Zhou family did not get a good reputation in the town, they had to move into the city. Yan Xiaoqin still couldn't relieve her hatred. It was a life-saving favor, and Chen Qiaoshan was also injured.

Thinking of the scene when he went into the water to save people, she still felt palpitations.

Chen Qiaoshan stayed under the water for only a minute, but for Yan Xiaoqin, she really lived like a year. She really thought Chen Qiaoshan couldn't get up anymore. It was a feeling of almost despair. Looking back now, she still couldn't calm down for a long time.

"Didn't I pick up mud in a brick factory at that time? The boy drove a Santana to show off his smell. I was so angry at that time that I wanted to smash the glass of his car with a fire shovel, but I still held it back. I earned ten yuan a day, but I really couldn't afford it."

Seeing his slutty look, Yan Xiaoqin couldn't help laughing.

"I made up my mind at that time, I must buy a Bingbear when I'm twenty-one."

Yan Xiaoqin asked, "How can you laugh at this sentence?"

"Don't worry, now my goal has been achieved."

Yan Xiaoqiqi said: "Didn't you booked the National Taiwan University Bandar Boat? But it's still early to hear from Sister Chang that she was queuing for customs clearance when she was running for the procedures."

Chen Qiaoshan said seriously: "I didn't buy a car, but I am at least twenty-one. Isn't it considered half of my goal?"

Yan Xiaoqin had never heard of this and she laughed so hard, but in public, she had to hold on and almost spilled the wine in her hand.

The two were chatting lively, but someone suddenly asked with a smile behind her back: "Little brother, you are from the mainland too, I heard the accent?"

When Yan Xiaoqin saw someone greeting him, she restrained her posture. The two of them turned around and found that there was a middle-aged man with a pleated face standing behind her. She looked at least fifty years old.

The other party spoke Mandarin, but he was not very skilled and had a southern accent.

Chen Qiaoshan nodded, "We are from Henan Province, and we are also from the mainland?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Yes."

No need to think, it is definitely not easy to attend the cocktail party at the Peninsula Hotel. Moreover, looking at the other party’s conversation and behavior, Chen Qiaoshan felt very familiar. Think about it carefully, the middle-aged man in front of him was somewhat similar to the senior coders in Zhongguancun.

Without hesitation, Chen Qiaoshan took out a business card and said, "Hello, I am Chen Qiaoshan. This is my business card. Please give me some advice."

The middle-aged man took it over and looked at it. The smile on his face became even more. He took the initiative to reach out and said, "Hello, I am Zhu Ming. I'm sorry, I didn't prepare a business card today. I'm very happy to see you. We are all in the same place."

"Oh, Mr. Zhu is also in the IT industry?" Chen Qiaoshan was a little confused. Most of the people who were doing IT at such an old age were successful people, and he was really not familiar with the name Zhu Ming.
