Chapter 212: The Chongguan of the Returning Ceremony is angered and becomes a beauty(1/3)
.
Director He and his friends said goodbye, and Xiao Qiang and the others wandered around the exhibition center.
Hong Kong and the UK made great efforts to make the handover ceremony, and the entire exhibition center was re-dressed.
The exhibition center was filled with people and people were doing the final preparations. There were also many security personnel. Although it was still early, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government established an oath venue and some leaders and state guest lounges on the seventh floor. Security personnel had cleared the yard and set up a police line.
Xiao Qiang and the others took a photo in these monumental places and took a lot of photos.
When taking photos, they will intentionally take the Hong Kong and British police on duty as the background to take photos.
It was not until all the more than ten rolls of film were used up that Xiao Qiang and Lin Yi left the exhibition center and went out to have a meal and rest.
After dinner, they did not go back to the exhibition center, but held hands and walked all the way on the street and chatted. Seeing that there was a shop, the two of them went in and walked around without buying anything. They just took a look and talked, which was very relaxing.
They are usually in the company, and although they are together, they are busy with work all day long. To be honest, there are not many relaxations like this.
The invitation to Hong Kong today is not only an exciting time to watch the Hong Kong regime handover ceremony, but also a rare rest time for both of them.
The mood of Hong Kong people seems to be quite complicated when it comes to the handover of the Hong Kong regime.
When Xiao Qiang and Lin Yi were alone, they usually talked in the southwest provincial capital, which gave them a kind feeling.
When those Hong Kong people heard their Southwest dialect and looked at their clothes, some would smile at them, while others would turn quickly. Many places were equipped with national flags and Hong Kong's Bauhinia Special Administrative Region flag. In general, there was still a celebratory atmosphere.
On the way, you can see many police officers maintaining public order. Everything seems peaceful.
Hong Kong is worthy of being a commercial city. The shops here have launched many souvenirs for the return of Hong Kong.
The shop owner was vigorously promoting tourists coming to Hong Kong. When he heard Xiao Qiang and Lin Yi chatting, he would come up immediately and encourage them to buy these souvenirs.
Girls always like small ornaments. Although Lin Yi doesn't like gold rings, diamonds and other accessories, she still loves these small items very much. They walked for more than half an hour. The handbags Xiao Qiang was carrying were already filled with all kinds of small ornaments.
However, since he has come and is on this memorable day, Xiao Qiang will naturally be satisfied just by accompanying Lin Yi to buy some small accessories.
He pulled Lin Yi and took a rental car from Hong Kong Island to Nathan Road, Kowloon, opposite the sea from Victoria Harbour.
This is the main gold jewelry concentration in Hong Kong, where gold shops such as Chow Tai Fook, Chow Shengsheng, and Xie Ruilin are all located.
In conjunction with the return of Hong Kong, the gold shop here either launched discount services or produced souvenirs for sale. The atmosphere of return is even stronger.
When the two got married, their mother Wenrong bought two large diamond rings. However, after the ceremony, they put away the diamond rings and felt that they were too vulgar.
They reviewed each store at a special booth, and they all fell in love with a pair of purple diamond platinum rings at a special booth of Xie Ruilin.
This booth is located in the middle of the gold shop, protected by glass covers, and guards are guarded by the guards.
The shape of the diamond ring is very unique, coiled by a redbud vine to form a ring. On the front is a purple diamond, forming a blooming redbud flower. Below the flower, two Arabic numerals "97" are printed, which are elegant and generous, and very memorable.
Among natural diamonds, they are usually transparent and colorless. Colored diamonds are very rare and the price is far higher than ordinary diamonds.
Such as red diamonds, blue diamonds, and purple diamonds, they are extremely rare. Less than one natural color diamond can also be sold at sky-high prices.
The purple diamond at Xie Ruilin's exhibition site is a pair of couple rings. Two purple diamonds of different sizes are arranged side by side, with bright purple colors, which is the best among purple diamonds!
Obviously, the gold shop also regarded this pair of self-diamond rings as the treasure of the store, and tourists were watching around them. Looking at the blurry brilliance of the pair of purple diamonds under the refraction of the light, everyone was fascinated by it and exclaimed from time to time.
Of course, such a rare purple diamond couple ring is naturally expensive.
At the booth, the price of diamond rings was not marked at all, and the onlookers did not dare to ask.
Xiao Qiang and the others looked and looked. They both saw their love for this diamond ring from each other's eyes. The purple diamond itself is very rare, and it is rare to be a couple ring, even more so than ever!
Xiao Qiang smiled at his lover and said to the security staff: "How much does this pair of diamond rings cost?"
When everyone heard someone asking about the price of the purple diamond ring, they were immediately excited.
They saw that although the clothes Xiao Qiang and his two wore had no brand logo, they were all hand-sewn, and the fabric was different from what they saw on the market. They were integrated and elegant, and they were obviously not ordinary people.
The Jindian's preservation staff also saw countless people, so they dared not be negligent. They immediately hired the Jindian manager to be responsible for the reception.
When the manager saw Xiao Qiang, he was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said enthusiastically: "Do you two ask about the price of this purple diamond ring?"
Xiao Qiang smiled and said, "This is a natural purple diamond. Does it have a quality certificate?"
"Yes, yes! The places sold in our store have quality assurance. How dare we put the artificial gems on the booth as our store treasure? Please come with me and we will talk to the VIP room." The manager asked Xiao Qiang and the others to come back to discuss in detail, and asked the staff of the gold shop to take the handbags that Xiao Qiang was carrying and followed behind them.
The VIP reception room is at the back, with a space of dozens of square meters and a magnificent interior, just like a high-end hotel.
Both sides sat down on the sofa with low backs. The staff of the gold shop placed their handbags respectfully on the table and were about to bend down to leave. The manager ordered to pour tea for Xiao Qiang and the others, and specially reminded that they should wait for good tea.
The tea was poured, and the manager didn't ask Xiao Qiang if he really wanted to buy it, so he asked the staff to take the diamond ring and carefully put it in front of the two, so that they could see it up close and play with it.
"Aren't you afraid that we just spend the time and just take the diamond ring over?" Xiao Qiang's palm was wide, and his ring was slightly tighter.
But he really likes this ring very much.
He was very satisfied with the workmanship and style. Especially the purple diamond above, for the whole
The glory is quite bright, which makes it reveal an elegant and noble temperament.
"Hahahaha! Look at the clothes of the two, you are not the ones who can't afford the bill. Even if you don't buy it, what's the point of making friends?" The manager smiled readily, staring at Xiao Qiang with a smile on his lips, "What's more, Boss Xiao. He is a famous celebrity and a rich man in the world. How can he not afford this mere purple diamond ring?"
When Xiao Qiang saw him, he was stunned for a moment, and then, with extraordinary enthusiasm, guessed that he had recognized him. He was not particularly surprised at calling out his name in one go.
He is now a big celebrity, and he is at its peak internationally, and has appeared in countless newspapers and magazines.
Being recognized is not a big deal.
The manager must have notified the owner of the gold shop. After a while, an old man in his fifties hurried in and greeted Xiao Qiang very enthusiastically. He was familiar with the production of this diamond ring and introduced it to Xiao Qiang and Lin Yi incessantly.
The origin of purple diamonds, quality certificates and other procedures were sent here.
Xiao Qiang socialized with them indifferently and asked about the price of the diamond rings.
"Ten million US dollars!" The old man blinked slyly and quoted the price of the diamond ring.
Lin Yi shook her hands and exclaimed, "So expensive!" She quickly took off the diamond ring, put it back on the tray, pulled Xiao Qiang's arm and said, "Xiao Qiang, this diamond ring is too expensive. Let's look at other styles."
Xiao Qiang patted her hand gently twice and said affectionately: "We have been running around for so many years and rarely stayed by your side. I feel wronged. Since we got married, I have never bought you anything valuable. Look, until now, your hands are empty, not even a ring..."
"Yes! Didn't mom buy us a pair of diamond rings? It's tens of thousands of yuan! It's just that I don't wear them often." Lin Yi said, and she also burst into laughter.
"Ha!" Xiao Qiang laughed.
Wenrong is an older generation, but her thoughts are still old ideas.
In her opinion, gold is the best, and the bigger the thing, the better. So she took the initiative to buy the wedding ring for the two of them, which was extremely huge. When wearing it on her hands, it was like a sole thimble, but it was made of gold. The diamonds were also very large. She didn't know much about artificial or natural things. She just heard that diamonds were expensive, so she chose an artificial diamond on the wedding ring, which looked very big.
Xiao Qiang thought about it and it was very suitable to use this trick to fight.
However, the two of them were not as kind as Wenrong. They wore it all morning when they got married. As soon as they left the hotel gate, they took off the embarrassing ring and never wore it again.
The owner and manager of the gold shop smiled and did not interrupt when they were talking. Seeing that Xiao Qiang was very determined, he explained: "The value of purple diamonds itself is very high, and the two probably know it. A single top purple diamond is worth at least four million US dollars. Since this pair of purple rings is specially made for the return of 97, it is very commemorative. At the same time, it is a pair, and its value is naturally much higher than that of a single one. We originally did not intend to sell it, but wanted to be the treasure of the store. However, it was difficult for Boss Xiao to get us here, and he bought it for Mrs. Xiao, so we reluctantly sold it. So, since Boss Xiao looks down on our shop, I will suffer a little more loss. One pair of nine million US dollars, what do you think?"
"Okay!" Xiao Qiang did not wait for Lin Yi to object again, and he made the final decision on the spot, and took out a Visa International Gold Card to pay the bill as the plan card.
The manager quickly called the master of the gold shop and changed the ring on the spot based on the shape of the two of them to facilitate the two of them to wear it.
Before leaving the gold shop, the boss and manager kept sending them to the gate, presenting their business cards, and preparing to drive them in person and take them back.
Xiao Qiang said that he would accompany Lin Yi to stroll around the neighborhood, and then he left.
Lin Yi felt very uneasy when she bought a pair of such expensive purple diamond rings. She was afraid that Xiao Qiang would be too big, so she shouted that she wanted to go back. It was not until Xiao Qiang told her that she would buy her another lv handbag and let Lin Yi agree to continue shopping.
Next, Xiao Qiang honestly didn't buy anything, but just accompanied Lin Yi to take a look.
In fact, women do not necessarily have to buy items when shopping.
They enjoy the fun of shopping themselves, and look at new styles of clothing and cosmetics. They learn about the latest fashions, try them occasionally, and evaluate the pros and cons of the product, and then they feel happy.
Lin Yi is like this. She walked along the way and didn't let go of anything, but bought nothing. She talked to Xiao Qiang from time to time and felt very happy.
The products of the World Company can be seen in almost all shopping malls. The company also has three specialty stores in its own port, namely Central and Causeway Bay on Hong Kong Island and Nathan Road in Kowloon.
The two of them were afraid of being recognized by the employees, so they did not enter the store and only looked across the street for a while.
Nathan's real store business seems to be very good, with many customers coming in and out. Projectors and LCD TVs seem to be the main products they buy, and there are much fewer Guoteng computers launched by Universal.
This is similar to the company's total sales.
Relatively speaking, the sales of computers in the mainland are very good. Due to the high cost performance and retaliatory tariffs on Intel's chips in China, Guoteng's computer sales have been rising all the way, accounting for 70% of domestic computer sales. However, in foreign countries, Intel's performance advantages and its brand effect have made Guoteng's sales not hot. They are only in Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, Africa and other places with low national income, and are also slightly popular.
As for Universal's LCD products, it can be said that they have dominated the world.
At that time, Europe and the United States originally signed an agreement with Universal to divide the market. Universal's sales scope was in Asia and Africa. However, because Universal absorbed the liquid crystal technology of Japan and the United States and combined with its own technology, the level of LCD manufacturing has improved quite rapidly.
Projectors, LCD TVs and other products not only quickly occupied the whole of Asia, but also had many distributors importing a large number of LCD products from Hong Kong and Japan and selling them to Europe and the United States.
This is not because Universal Company violates the agreement, but because its own businessmen are driven by interests, and European and American electrical appliance manufacturers cannot find anything to blame.
In addition, the LCD products of Huanyu Company are of good quality and low price. In a few years, Europe and the United States have
There are only two or three brands in the high-end manufacturers, and most of the LCD products are occupied by Universal.
Now Universal Company, the domestic authorized manufacturer, has become the main production base of global LCD products, and its annual sales have continued to increase. It has achieved amazing results of more than 10 billion US dollars in annual sales revenue!
The taxes paid to the state every year are in billions of dollars!
This is also one of the things that the domestic electronics industry is most grateful to Universal.
The reason why Universal Company enjoys a high reputation in the country is that LCD electronic products are of great significance.
After walking around for a few more times, the two of them arrived at the Mong Kok Shopping Center.
