Chapter 1020 High Seas Fishing

,

The meeting with Brother Chebman was on the high seas more than 80 nautical miles away from Hong Kong. The two sides plus the middleman - Joe Gleason of the Hong Kong Freighter Terminal Chamber of Commerce, as well as three-party bodyguards and yacht waiters, a total of more than ten people.

The location on the high seas was a evasive measure taken by Brother Chebman from nature. Although Rui Yun did not reveal any ideas to Gleason and Gleason did not suggest anything, Brother Chebman had sensitively realized that this was not just a business negotiation, but it might include more complex transactions.

The yacht set off from the deep-water port owned by Brother Chebman and first circled around the entire port. He talked endlessly about the deep-water berth, the depth of the waterway, the depth of the front of the dock, etc. After leaving the port, Gleason asked about the yacht, which was Brother Chebman's favorite, and immediately boasted for most of the day. Rui Yun was secretly surprised when she heard that the yacht was worth US$11 million and was worried about the upcoming negotiations.

This yacht is equivalent to a marine mobile apartment integrating modern office and family leisure. It has the overall functional characteristics of the ship, and can also be used as a family leisure life or a friend's gathering and entertaining customers. As a leisure luxury yacht, in addition to a soft-pod deck platform and an open-air viewing table, kitchens, guest rooms, karaoke equipment, electronic game rooms, extended fishing sterns, etc. are standard; in terms of power and technology, engines, generators, radars, professional instruments and meters, global communication equipment, air conditioning equipment, household appliances, satellite navigation systems, etc. are all available.

"I live on a yacht for at least two months every year. Hong Kong's winter is worthy of being the most comfortable season in the world. Fishing and tasting iced champagne is the most beautiful enjoyment," said Chebman proudly. "The rest of the time I rent it for the yacht club, help me maintain it for free and earn some rent. It's a good deal."

Gleason introduced: "Mr. Chebman is also a senior member of the Hong Kong Yacht Club."

The Hong Kong Yacht Club is the oldest world-class yacht club in Hong Kong, with more than 10,000 members, only billionaires can afford it.

Rui Yao smiled and said, "My interest is different from Mr. Chebman. It is mainly mountaineering. Last year, the results were not very good. I only conquered three peaks above 6,000 meters. I plan to make physical reserves one month in advance this summer and challenge the first peak of the Tianshan Mountains - Tomur Peak, 7,435 meters."

"Wow, awesome!"

Brother Chebman and Gleason exclaimed at the same time.

Unlike pure leisure, climbing a mountain is a test of physical strength, will and skills. The level of money burning is not as good as that of a yacht, and it has always been a yearning for Europeans and Americans who advocate sports.

"Average, just interest."

Rui Yun jokingly looked free and successfully won the game.

As the yacht sailed into the high seas, the waiter brought colorful cocktails and drinks. Gleason took an excuse to lie down and drank, ran to the deck to see the scenery, leaving the two alone to talk.

"When did Miss Rui become interested in Deepwater Port?" Brother Chebman got to the point, "As far as I know, Miss Rui has done transportation engineering, electronic components, hotel and catering, etc., it has nothing to do with port business."

Rui Yun smiled: "It seems that Mr. Chebman has conducted a very detailed investigation of me."

"In the era of information, all information is open."

"In contrast, I don't know much about Mr. Chebman. I only know that you have three younger brothers, who are very successful in their careers."

When talking about his younger brother, Brother Chebman already had an 80% sense of it. He did not follow the topic, but continued to ask:

"Ms. Rui is optimistic about the development of Hong Kong's deepwater port? Or is it a general contact and purely inquire about the market?"

"Ninety percent of the people in the mainland are not optimistic about real estate, but real estate investment is still fierce. Personal impression and long-term investment are two different concepts, Mr. Chebman."

"Okay, then Miss Rui should be clear about my previous offer to the public, right?"

"That's not the point," Rui Yun said lightly, and turned around, "I just mentioned that your three younger brothers, do you often meet?"

"In fact... there are not many opportunities, especially the darling of our Chebman family, the youngest brother, and the current British Foreign Secretary, thanks for being able to have a meal with us quietly all year round. There is no way, politicians are always like this."

"He can decide many major events with international influence, which is itself a glory."

Brother Chebman blinked in confusion, shrugged and said, "Frankly, I'm not interested in Zhengzhi at all. The only thing that TV can make me sit for more than five minutes is financial news."

"I am the same. I came to Hong Kong to browse the international news and happened to see what happened to the UK..." Rui Yun took out an English newspaper from her small bag and handed it over.

The third edition is a detailed introduction to the Embassy incident in the Kingdom of Lesotho.

Brother Chebman knew it well and quickly browsed it, saying, "Oh, it seems to have nothing to do with my country..."

“As a member of the Commonwealth, the United Kingdom maintains a strong influence on the Kingdom of Lesotho.”

"Is that so? I'm much worse than my younger brother in this regard."

The old and sloppy brother Chebman does not miss the slightest touch.

Rui Yun clicked until she was not aggressive and said with a smile: "I have two ideas about your offer for Deepwater Port. First, it is too high; second, if you can't even negotiate with me, you can continue to cover it within five years."

It was like two scoundrels that made Brother Chebman dizzy.

"Wait, Miss Rui, I don't quite understand what you are saying... In fact, there have been buyers talking about it since last year. The reason why the agreement was not completed has little to do with the prospects of Deepwater Port, and there are mainly complex factors such as contract performance and payment."

Brother Chebman defended.

Rui Yun took out a map from her little bag, pointed to a series of red circles in northeastern Hong Kong, and said, "Any deep-water port in this place has a quote of only half of yours, believe it?"

"I believe, but they can't sell it."

"Since this year, some provinces have launched port shareholding reforms. In the future, except for deep-water ports involving military use, they will gradually transform and push them all to the market, just like the reform of central enterprises they are exploring."

"No matter how much they build, Hong Kong's deep-water port status is irreplaceable," said Chebman. "10,000 tons of sea ships, giant freighters, oil tankers and even warships. They choose to dock not only depends on prices, but also on geographical location and economic development. In the foreseeable decades, I can't see which city is doing better than Hong Kong."

Rui Yun retorted: "You forgot Dalian and Bihai, and Sanya, which is booming. In addition, the deep-water ports they invested in and built in Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia, even Singapore feel the survival crisis, let alone Hong Kong? In the future, in terms of mainland vision planning, Hong Kong's function is no longer an international economic exchange transit station. In that aspect, it has long been weakened, but an exploration of the integration of the regular governance system."

"In this way, Miss Rui is actually not interested in what I have in my hands?" Brother Chebman had nothing to say and could only defend.

"In the East, there has never been a simple business... Oh, sorry, actually the same is true in the West, right?"

"In fact, we will clearly distinguish it, and it will be dangerous for businessmen to step into areas that they are not good at," he said slowly.

"Yeah?"

Rui Yun smiled and turned her wine glass to stare at the sea.

After more than a minute of the cold, Brother Chebman said: "Actually, I really want to know the sincerity of Miss Rui's acquisition. Everyone is very busy in Hong Kong. If you waste too much time on topics without hope, God will punish us."

"I took a plane from Yuanshan to Hong Kong for more than two hours. Last night, I talked with Mr. Gleason about the early morning. If I just took a yacht to ride on the high seas, Mr. Chebman would have been over-concerned," said Rui Yun. "I can't see what else I need to do when I deposited the sincere money in Citibank's special account and the loan commitment letter issued by Japan's Ruisui Financial Group."

"Investing in shares, joint ventures, major shareholder control, etc. is not my option. What I want is to get out of Hong Kong with cash. In Nordic, I have better planning and aspirations."

"As long as the negotiations go well, Mr. Chebman should be able to achieve his goal."

Brother Chebman stared at Rui Yun, and Rui Yun smiled at him.

The sea breeze is getting stronger and stronger, but the sun is getting brighter. Fish jump out from time to time on the sea surface in the distance, and then enter the water gracefully.

"The sea fishing rod is ready, see how lucky Miss Rui is." Brother Chebman made an invitation gesture.

Rui Yun smiled sweetly: "My luck has always been good."

"Yes, smart and beautiful women are always lucky."

Brother Chebman complimented and accompanied Rui Yun to the deck, asking the waiter to explain and teach the basic skills of sea fishing. He said hello and got into the cabin.

It should be to inquire about the ins and outs of the embassy incident in the Kingdom of Lesotho and to understand how much role my younger brother can play in this issue.

It was not until noon that Brother Chebman appeared in the restaurant, and his expression was not obvious.

"Ms. Rui is lucky, how did he get the harvest in the morning?" he asked with a smile.

Gleason smiled and replied for her: "The harvest is full, two large groupers, a beautiful real bream, and a white girl."

"That's OK. I'll have to look at that real snapper later," Chebman said with a thumbs up. "Although there is rarely an embarrassment of returning empty-handed in the high seas, the quality of the fish is very important. The biggest problem with sea fishing is the input-output ratio."

"It does not include yacht fishing. How much does it cost to use a yacht alone? It does not include maintenance and repair costs." Gleason smiled.

Rui Yun also smiled: "When you reach Mr. Chebman's level, it mainly depends on your mood. It is worth the price when you are in a good mood."

The three of them talked about sea fishing while eating three-point cooked steak. Rui Yun didn't like this bloody and half-cooked dish. In addition, she reacted during pregnancy. Although she endured the nausea, she went to the bathroom twice.

Brother Chebman realized this and kept instructing the waiter to give him a salad.

"I thought mountaineering enthusiasts like to eat high-calorie, low-fat beef," Gleason said.

Rui Yun smiled gracefully: "That was very cooked beef jerky, and it also thoughtfully added sugar that women liked."

"Was Henry very important to the Chinese government's official residence about the Embassy in the Kingdom of Lesotho?" Brother Chebman asked suddenly.

Rui Yun gently put down the knife and fork and said, "It's important, not important, it depends on which angle you understand it."

"What about it?" Brother Chebman asked.

"For example, Mr. Chebman drove a yacht to sea fishing and returned empty-handed, it would be a bad mood, but no matter how bad it is, it would not affect Mr. Chebman's appetite for eating steak, right?"

Brother Chebman was stunned and looked at each other and laughed at Gleason.

"A wonderful metaphor." Brother Chebman said.

Gleason then explained: "It is very likely that - I think so. Chinese people care about face and think it is embarrassing to not catch people in their territory. In fact, what can Henry, a reporter who is being paid attention to by the government?

"Mr. Gleason thinks so much, so he sees through the mystery of the Eastern world."
