After completing the Gold Futures order, Feng Yu went home with his novel. During the day, he attended classes and read about the international news. At night, he will read novels or watch movies.
Next week, Feng Yu plans to return to Beijing. This year's award winners had been confirmed, but he still needs to go back to Beijing for the New Year's Eve Gala. This year, Feng Yu's award-winning products were Aiwa Pagers, Wahaha Tea Beverages, and Tian Peng Pigs. At the same time, Bing City Pharmaceutical Enterprise's General Manager had also won an individual award.
"Going to have fun alone? I will not let you supervise me. Saying goodbye to you? I will find a companion when I'm lonely … …"
Feng Yu was at home listening to his new album when he received a call from Fu Guangwei.
"Brother Feng, what are you doing? Let's have dinner together. "
"Ok. Let's meet at my carpark later."
"Oh, I will bring you to an event after dinner. I promise you will be interested." Fu Guangwei said mysteriously.
Feng Yu raised his brows. You want me to be interested in your event? Don't invite me to a bar or nightclub. I might as well stay at home and listen to music.
"What did you say just now? I didn't hear it clearly."
Fu Guangwei repeated: "I said I will bring you to an event after dinner. I promise you will be interested."
"No. The previous sentence."
"The previous sentence? Let's have dinner together? "
Feng Yu immediately replied: "No. I don't have time at night. You go and have dinner with your friends. I will go to a small restaurant and have some Fried Beef River. "
Fu Guangwei: "… …" You had agreed just now. Why are you going back on your words?
Although Fu Guangwei had brought Feng Yu to nightclubs, and Feng Yu was not interested, this time, it is not a nightclub. It is a high-end gathering.
"Brother Feng, I'm not joking. There will be a charity ball tonight, and the attendees are all young and successful people from Hong Kong. Brother Guangzheng, didn't you say that you like to do charity? Don't you want to attend this charity ball? "
What the hell? Charity ball? Feng Yu is not interested in doing charity in Hong Kong. He is still enjoying his reputation in China and does not need to come to Hong Kong for charity. Feng Yu does not have any businesses in Hong Kong and does not need to label himself as a philanthropist.
Even in China, Feng Yu had never flaunted himself as a philanthropist. It was the same in Bing City. This was because in the early years, charity was still a taboo word in the mainland. It was considered a show off by the capitalists to the commoners.
The government was also not very willing to accept donations in the name of charity. That would be seen as a sign of incompetence and an insult! It was not until the end of the 1980s that this kind of opening was opened. However, the media never said that these donations were for charity.
Therefore, Feng Yu donated the school building and the school in the name of education, but he never said that it was a charity donation. In another two years, the term 'charity' would be accepted by the mainlanders.
From Feng Yu's point of view, Hong Kong's charities are just gimmicks. However, it had to be said that this gimmick was very effective. Of course, these people did donate a lot of money. But then, they all got some favorable policies from the government, or got strong publicity from the government, which allowed them to earn back the money.
Also, Hong Kong's welfare system was much better than China's. But there were more lazy people in Hong Kong than in China. Feng Yu felt that the government should use those charity donations to hire more police officers to wipe out the triads in Hong Kong.
Although Feng Yu is not interested in charity, he is interested in balls. The last time he attended a ball was in the former Soviet Union, Kiev. Also, this ball will be attended by Hong Kong's second generations, and it will be good to make some friends.
"This is a charity ball. You need a partner, right?"
"I will arrange a beautiful girl for you!"
"Ok. Wait for me at my place. I will go and change my clothes first."
In Feng Yu's mind, Fu Guangwei will arrange a beautiful girl for him. She should be a small-time celebrity or something. In Feng Yu's previous life, he had read in the newspapers that many Hong Kong female celebrities will try their best to get into the upper class, and these balls are their best opportunity.
Attending a ball is much better than walking the red carpet. If they are lucky, they might be able to hook up with a rich young master. To them, they might be able to live their dream life.
Feng Yu was still thinking about the young and beautiful female celebrities in Hong Kong. Qiu Shuzhen, his favorite in his previous life, should not have met her Mr. Right. Feng Yu does not need anything to happen. Just dancing is enough to make him happy.
After changing into a suit, Feng Yu looked at himself in the mirror. He is so handsome!
… …
During dinner, Feng Yu still did not see Fu Guangwei's dance partner.
"Wei Zai, where is your dance partner?" Feng Yu asked. Damn. Was he fooled by this kid?
Fu Guangwei swallowed the food in his mouth and took a sip of water to rinse his mouth. He said: "Your dance partner is changing and putting on makeup. She should be here after we finish dinner. I promise you that she will be a beauty! "
An absolute beauty? Hopefully, Fu Guangwei's taste is up to standard. If it is someone like Sister Pomegranate, Feng Yu will immediately say that he has cramps and go home to sleep!
"A beauty! Who is it? Can you tell me? "Feng Yu was looking forward to the dance partner when he heard what Fu Guangwei said.
"Heaven's secrets must not be revealed. If you know now, there will be no surprises." Fu Guangwei said mysteriously and lowered his head to continue eating his steak. He seems to have made up his mind that he will not answer Feng Yu's questions.
Surprise? I like it!
Never mind. If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. Anyway, we will meet soon. Feng Yu also increased his eating speed. Why eat steak? If it is Chinese food, he will be full in a few mouthfuls.
… …
"Dad, I don't want to go. I want to stay at home and watch TV with you, ok?" Fu Mengying held Fu Rongbing's hand and said coquettishly.
"Even if you don't want to go, you must go! Your elder brother had said that Feng Yu is looking forward to seeing you. Didn't you also say that Feng Yu is not bad? "
This charity ball was organized by Fu Guangwei according to Fu Rongbing's request. The purpose was not for charity or to increase his reputation. It was purely to create opportunities for Fu Mengying and Feng Yu to get to know each other!
In Fu Rongbing's words, even if Fu Mengying and Feng Yu did not have any feelings for each other, it would still be good if the other men at the ball fell in love with each other. Anyway, those who could attend the ball were all from wealthy families. At the very least, they would be famous doctors or lawyers. Normal government officials were not qualified to attend. This was because those who were qualified were too old.
Now, Fu Rongbing's biggest wish was for his daughter to fall in love with a man. If that man was Feng Yu, then it would be perfect.
Although the Fu Family was one of Hong Kong's top families, Feng Yu's net worth was much higher than him. With his daughter's situation, even if she had to be Feng Yu's mistress, as long as Feng Yu treated her equally, he would accept it!
Fu Mengying wanted to cry. Others might not know, but she knew that Feng Yu was not interested in her. Of course, she would not be interested in Feng Yu either. The reason was simple … … Feng Yu was a man!
She had used Feng Yu as an excuse to stop her father from introducing other young men to her. But now, she had shot herself in the foot. She did not know how to reject Feng Yu's invitation to be his dance partner at the charity ball. She did not know how to reject him.
Never mind. She will take it one step at a time. At the ball, Feng Yu should not say anything overboard. She might even let Feng Yu be her shield for a while!
