Chapter 369 Welcome to China
Eleven o'clock in the morning.
Star City Huanghua International Airport.
"I'm sorry, Brother Chao, I made you wait for me all day yesterday."
As soon as Huang Xu walked out of the station, he said sorry to Huang Chao.
I was supposed to come over to meet him yesterday, but because of my impulse, I said I wanted to treat the program team to dinner, so I was delayed all day.
Of course, he would not admit that it was because of his greed for Park Hyo-min that he stayed there for one more day.
Huang Chao waved his hand indifferently, took Huang Xu's suitcase, and said to him.
"You're so busy, you can't predict what might happen at the last minute."
"By the way, when will your guests arrive?"
"We landed around two o'clock in the afternoon, and with them leaving customs, it would be at least around three o'clock."
Huang Xu glanced at the information on the big screen next to him and found that there was no prompt to be late, then he asked Huang Chao.
"By the way, Brother Chao, how are the things I asked you to prepare now?"
"Don't worry, everything is ready."
"The hotel has been booked. It's a five-star hotel here that just opened last year. And as for the car, I rented two Mercedes-Benz nine-seater business cars."
"We have also reserved a large private room that can seat twenty people in the hotel for the evening."
Huang Chao looked at Huang Xu, and then began to report to Huang Xu what he had been busy with these past two days.
"By the way, there are also the drinks you mentioned. I found three boxes of Jiugui Liquor that are more than ten years old from a local cigarette shop."
"See if it's enough. If not, I'll look for it in the afternoon."
"That's almost it. Thank you for your hard work, Brother Chao."
Huang Xu couldn't help but nodded when he heard Huang Chao's return.
His cousin has grown very rapidly in the past year, from a small maintenance worker to a powerful assistant now.
No matter what you do, as long as you leave it to him, it will be completed perfectly.
It only took one day to get a hotel, a car, and three boxes of old wine. It can be said that the speed was quite good.
Especially the three boxes of more than ten years old wine are hard to find.
Huang Chao watched Huang Xu nod in confirmation of his work, and a smile appeared on his face.
Although he is Huang Xu's cousin, he has grown up following him since he was a child.
But the experience of the past six months, coupled with the earth-shaking changes in Huang Xu, made it impossible for him to regard Huang Xu as the little brat following him anymore.
Even as the scale of his business became larger and larger, he was a little timid towards Huang Xu at this time.
Huang Xu didn't know what his cousin was thinking, so he followed Huang Chao to the parking lot. Put your luggage in the car first.
Then I took him to the airport, planning to find a restaurant to satisfy my hunger problem.
I didn't eat much last night, and then I fought until the early hours of the morning. In addition, I didn't even eat breakfast in the morning because I had to catch my flight.
Now I only have the snacks I had on the plane in my stomach, and I am already very hungry.
I found a golden arch, ordered a lot of things, and started to feast.
The calorie bomb combination of burgers, fried chicken and Coke made Huang Xu very satisfied.
I am used to all kinds of big meals and healthy meals on weekdays. It is quite a good experience to have a meal of this high-calorie "junk" food once in a while.
It tasted so delicious that Huang Chao opposite him became a little curious.
"Why does it taste so delicious? Didn't you eat in the morning?"
"Not just in the morning, it should be said that I didn't eat enough last night."
"No wonder, are these enough to eat?"
"If it doesn't work, I'll go get you a family bucket again?"
As Huang Xu's cousin, he knew all about Huang Xu's appetite.
Even though they have ordered a lot of food now, they may not be enough for Huang Xu to eat.
And Huang Xu had no intention of refusing.
"Well, let's have another Family Bucket, and by the way, give me another Coke."
"Okay."
Huang Chao nodded, got up directly, and went to help Huang Xu order food.
By the time he came back with the items, Huang Xu had almost wiped out the items he had just ordered.
After helping the whole family open the bucket, he sat down and watched Huang Xu feasting. He couldn't help but work up his appetite and ate several more pieces of fried chicken.
It took the two brothers more than 20 minutes to finally fill their stomachs, and then they left the Golden Arches and found a free seat near the exit to chat.
The first was Huang Chao. He looked at Huang Xu and asked with some confusion.
"What's the matter with you coming here this time?"
"Not only did we rent so many rooms, but we also rented two cars. Why did we prepare so many things?"
"I don't remember our company, what kind of business does it have here?"
"Didn't I tell you?"
Huang Xu was also very surprised when he heard his cousin's question.
Huang Chao, on the other hand, looked at Huang Xu with a black line on his face.
"Of course you didn't tell me. You just made a phone call a few days ago and called me over from Jiucheng. Then you arranged a bunch of tasks and didn't say anything else."
"Well, I was negligent."
Huang Xu thought about it and realized that he had never told his cousin about it, so he said to him.
"I acquired a brokerage company a few months ago. When I come back this time, I will discuss cooperation with the cultural and tourism department here."
"What?"
"No, what are you shouting? Sit down first and then talk."
Seeing his cousin standing up and shouting out of surprise, Huang Xu also quickly pulled him to sit down.
This is an airport. Although they are in the corner and there are not many people around, Huang Xu is still very cautious.
As someone who came from the era of proliferation of self-media, he knows that there are many audiences in this world.
In previous lives, when someone let himself go in a deserted no-man's land, he was watched and recorded by many people.
Not to mention that this is an airport with dense surveillance and a large number of people?
He didn't want to be noticed by some people or recorded because of this, which would increase the chance of his identity being exposed.
Huang Chao also noticed something was wrong. After sitting down, he asked Huang Xu in a low voice.
"Why did you suddenly acquire a brokerage company and cooperate with the Cultural Tourism Bureau?"
In his opinion, Huang Xu was very irrational in doing these things.
It's different from opening a restaurant or making a chain of fast food. They still understand these things and are developing quite well.
Not to mention Huang Xu and his uncle, the two sponsors.
As for himself, he has only been working with Huang Xu for more than half a year. His salary plus various bonuses now have a deposit of four to five million.
This is the income he could not save from his last job for ten years.
He feels that if he works for two more years, he can really buy a house and get married on his own.
That's why he felt that Huang Xu was a little irrational and ventured into areas he didn't understand.
Especially in a high-risk, high-investment industry like brokerage entertainment companies.
Huang Xu looked at Huang Chao's confusion and was not angry, but explained patiently.
"Actually, my uncle has told me before, and I have explained it to him."
"Our chain franchise is going very well now, but we are just taking advantage of these few years to make a fortune."
"When more people see the profits, more people will enter this industry."
"At that time, it will be difficult for us to think about how to make money."
"But."
"I know, Brother Chao, I know what you want to say, but you need to hear me out first." Huang Xu waved his hand to stop Huang Chao's words, and then explained.
"As for why I thought about opening a brokerage company, it actually took me a long time to think about it."
"Yes, I don't know much about this industry, but does anyone else know about it?"
"Sunny and Ha La, both of them have been in the entertainment industry for several years and have a deep understanding of this industry."
"Especially Sunny. Her father and uncle both run brokerage companies. You can ask him for help with many things."
"And the most important thing is that the two of them can't always work in other people's companies in the future. I'll open one first, and when their contracts expire, they can join the company directly, so they don't have to worry about too many things. ”
"Yeah, I forgot about my two younger siblings."
Listening to Huang Xu's explanation, Huang Chao also nodded and expressed his understanding.
But he also remembered something, and then asked Huang Xu curiously.
"I won't ask you about starting a company. Just have your own considerations. But I'm still curious."
"What are you three going to do in the future?"
"Both Korea and us seem to be unable to marry two at the same time."
"I am also having a headache about this matter now?"
Huang Xu also felt a headache after listening to Huang Chao's words.
And his current real situation is not just Sunny and Goo Hara, but also Kim Taeyeon and Park Hyomin, which makes four people in total.
If you want to marry four people at the same time, then the law will only allow it in those areas of Saudi Arabia.
And besides the law, there is another thing that is even more difficult to deal with.
That was their family, and they were the real headache for Huang Xu.
If the marriage issue was just a headache for Huang Xu and he could figure it out if he could figure it out, then for their family, Huang Xu only felt a sense of despair.
But then he thought of something, and then asked Huang Chao.
"Brother, stop talking about me, talk about you?"
"What are you talking about me?"
"Of course it's your partner's business?"
Huang Xu looked at him with a playful look.
"I heard that who you met during the Chinese New Year is now pornographic?"
"Uh"
"Hey, tell me, what's going on?"
Huang Xu looked at the troubled expression on Huang Chao's face and immediately became interested.
When he returned to Seoul a few days ago, he heard from his uncle that Huang Chao and his girlfriend had broken up.
It's just that he hasn't had time to ask the specific reason yet.
Now that there was an opportunity, he would not miss it.
Huang Chao also looked embarrassed when Huang Xu stared at him like this, and he didn't want to talk about his sad things.
But looking at Huang Xu's curious eyes, he finally sighed and continued talking.
"Actually, the two of us were quite happy getting along at the beginning."
"It's just that later on, didn't I keep running outside and on business trips?"
"Then the contact gradually became less and less, and then it gradually faded away, and she happened to meet someone who was chasing her, so"
"So you were poached because of me?"
Huang Xu didn't expect that in the end, it would still be because of himself.
If he didn't arrange for Huang Chao to travel around the country and go on business trips frequently, does that mean that Huang Chao wouldn't break up with him?
"Sorry Brother Chao, it's my fault. If I didn't let you go on a business trip, you wouldn't either."
"It's not your problem, it's just that we are not suitable for each other."
Huang Chao waved his hand and then said to Huang Xu.
"What she yearns for is the white-collar life in the city, and she yearns for the exquisite petty bourgeoisie atmosphere. She will definitely live in the city and live in the city in the future."
"As for my situation, even if I don't go on a business trip and I can be around her every day, she still has to leave when she should."
"Not to mention, the person I'm pursuing is from the city. His family has a car and a house in the city. He's funnier and more handsome than me."
"Okay."
After Huang Xu listened, he looked helpless after seeing Huang Chao give up.
If Huang Chao himself didn't give up, then Huang Xu still had ways to persuade him, but he had given up, so no matter how he tried to persuade him, it was of no use.
But now there is another problem that needs to be solved by Huang Xu.
"Brother, do you think that people like us who come from the countryside are not worthy of them and cannot compare with the people in the city?"
"I"
"No, brother, do you really think so?"
Huang Xu looked at Huang Chao in surprise. He didn't expect that his cousin would really feel this way and have such low self-esteem.
"Do you know how high your income is now?"
"In less than a year now, I should have given you four to five million yuan. With this kind of income, most urban people cannot get this much money."
"Also, as for the house and car issues you mentioned, with the money you have now, it's no problem to pay a down payment."
"As for cars, you drive the company car now. By next year, you will have almost enough money to buy a car."
"Who are you dating now, and what else are you close to?"
"This"
Huang Chao felt a certain impact when he listened to Huang Xu's words.
In the process of getting along with his girlfriend, he had always been in a position of inferiority complex.
Of course, the main reason is that he has not yet adapted to his change of identity.
In the past, after I graduated from college and started working, I would do some equipment maintenance and repair work in the factory, and I was still an apprentice.
So when he gets along with his partner, he always feels that he is inferior to him.
But after Huang Xu's current explanation, he found that he didn't seem to be bad at all.
With his current income, he can afford a house and a car. Why do he still think that she is superior to him?
Huang Xu looked at his cousin who was deep in thought and shook his head helplessly.
He didn't expect that Huang Chao would actually be in this situation, but when he talked about buying a house, he also remembered it.
It seems that I am in the country and don’t have a house yet.
How about taking advantage of the fact that it's still early and housing prices in many places haven't risen yet, and buy a house to live in first.
Especially in Yanjing, the current settlement regulations are not so strict. Buy one first, and then get the household registration when you come back. It will be more convenient for your children to go to school in the future.
He didn't want his children to go through Henan Province's hellish college entrance examination.
The rest of the time was spent chatting slowly between the two.
At about three o'clock, Huang Xu took his cousin and stood at the international exit, holding a sign, waiting for their arrival.
Ten minutes later, Huang Xu saw a large group of business-looking people wearing dark suits.
"Uncle, welcome to China."
"Thank you for your hard work, Xiaoxu. It's really troublesome for you."
Li Xiuman greeted Huang Xu with a smile on his face, and then introduced him to the people behind him.
"This is Huang Xu, a nephew of mine and half a landlord here."
When he introduced Huang Xu, he just introduced it very briefly and vaguely, without saying much.
Huang Xu was also so happy, after saying hello to the other party.
"Let's go, uncle, the room has been reserved over there. Let's go to the hotel to have a rest and talk about it the rest of the night."
