The birth of the Hong Kong Island family

Beach house in Los Angeles.

On the lawn, Lin Zhichao was sitting under a parasol, holding an American newspaper in his hand. Fruits and iced wine were placed on the table next to him. On the other side was Audrey Hepburn, who was seven months pregnant and now the mother of "Barbie Doll". .

Audrey Toy Company has become a large toy company in the United States, and Barbie has become one of the most famous toys in the United States, and Audrey Hepburn has also become the most legendary movie star in Hollywood; The best heroine has transformed into a favorite among American children.

Although the accusation of pregnancy out of wedlock has never stopped, this kind of thing has never been a problem. What's more, under Lin Zhichao's guidance, Audrey Hepburn always pretended to be a good person of "strong woman" and "single mother", so this situation made Barbie doll instead.

"Honey, you gave me two million US dollars, together with Audrey's one million US dollar dividend last year, I have already bought American consumer stocks and technology stocks. What's next?"

Lin Zhichao put down the newspaper and looked at Lin Ruidong, who was playing football alone not far away, with a smile on his lips.

"Regardless of them, these stocks are long-term investments, probably up to seven or eight years."

He believes that this wave of U.S. stocks should be able to rise to around 1966, the year before the closure of the Suez Canal; and after the Suez Canal crisis in 1956, U.S. stocks were also discouraged for a year and a half.

Therefore, although Lin Zhichao didn't know the market price of each share during this period, it was obviously a 'buying bottom' at this time. In seven or eight years, the increase must have been very gratifying, and a large amount of dividends.

As for specific stocks, Lin Zhichao chose consumer stocks and technology stocks, such as Coca-Cola and Boeing. He is a long-term investor. When choosing stocks, of course he chooses stocks he is familiar with. Such stocks have more upside potential and, more importantly, must pay good dividends.

Audrey Hepburn lay sideways on the chair, looked at Lin Zhichao with affectionate eyes, and said, "What do you always give me money for? I own Audrey Toys Company, which is already very rich. I have never had Hollywood actresses live so richly!"

Compared with other actresses in Hollywood, Audrey Hepburn is indeed the most dignified and wealthy person, because she herself is the boss, and this boss is also a "Barbie mother" loved by children all over the world.

Lin Zhichao said: "A little money! Moreover, I gave you money to invest because I think American stocks have investment potential."

The brand value of Audrey Toy Company is now worth tens of millions of dollars, because the annual profit is millions of dollars. Of course, the profits from the Yangtze Toy Factory's OEM production of Barbie dolls are also relatively high. After all, this was Lin Zhichao's idea.

Audrey Hepburn did not discuss this issue again. She felt that she was very happy to accept Lin Zhichao giving her money in this way.

"Can I trade in stocks?"

Lin Zhichao said decisively: "No! Stocks are a kind of gambling. Gambling means that nine out of ten people lose, so stocks are also 'seven losses, two draws and one win.' With such a low probability of winning, are you going to trade in stocks?"

Audrey Hepburn was stunned and said after a long time: "Then you must be the one who wins!"

She could feel the confident glow on Lin Zhichao's face deeply.

"I am a long-term investment and value investment. These companies are all well-established companies in the United States, and their dividends are profitable enough. What's more, I am optimistic about the development of their companies."

Audrey Hepburn nodded!

"Dear Monroe will go to Audrey Toy Company to shoot a commercial tomorrow. We are going to officially co-brand Monroe and produce a Barbie version!" Audrey Hepburn said and looked at Lin Zhichao with interest.

She knew that Lin Zhichao didn't pay much attention to Hollywood, but he only asked Monroe a few questions. This shows that Lin Zhichao pays attention to Monroe.

Lin Zhichao said calmly: "It's very good. This kind of cooperation is beneficial to both parties! But I don't think it needs to be released for Audrey Hepburn's version, or it may be released in the future!"

Seeing that Lin Zhichao was not fooled, Audrey Hepburn immediately said: "Don't you want to meet this beauty in Hollywood?"

Lin Zhichao smiled and said: "There are two beauties in Hollywood in this era - Audrey Hepburn and Monroe (Monroe). Since I have got you, I naturally have little interest in the other one. What's more, I heard that Monroe, as an Oriental, I don’t like women like this, they are more conservative!”

Audrey Hepburn felt a little proud, and immediately asked with a smile: "Those very annoying entertainment media also wrote about my scandal, aren't you jealous?"

Indeed, there were rumors of scandals between Audrey Hepburn and many people, but Lin Zhichao knew that the scandals must be false; but with the way Europeans and Americans deal with things, and because Audrey Hepburn was a star, it was normal for her to have scandals. No need to worry.

To put it bluntly, as long as Audrey Hepburn's two remaining sons are mixed-race, Lin Zhichao won't be cautious and suspect anything.

"Monroe is passionate, just like a bouquet of fire roses. It is normal to get involved in scandals, and it is not necessarily a scandal! But Audrey Hepburn is noble and cool, like jasmine with a faint fragrance. If there is a little scandal, then It just comes from the profession of being a star."

Hearing Lin Zhichao's comments, Audrey Hepburn knew that he must want to meet Monroe, so she took the initiative to arrange: "My dear, come to the company with me tomorrow. At worst, I will introduce you as my partner!"

Having said that, Lin Zhichao could only reluctantly agree.

It’s okay to meet, but if we don’t meet again, there may be no chance to meet again in the future!

The next day.

Audrey Hepburn and Lin Zhichao came to the headquarters of Barbie, which has become the headquarters of a large toy company with sixty or seventy employees.

Today, Lin Zhichao’s status in ‘Audrey Company’ is ‘investor’, ‘partner’, and ‘shareholder’, so some of the management know each other.

After chatting with President Rich for a while, there was a burst of noise, and I knew it was Monroe.

Meng Lu walked into the office building in a hurry with two assistants and two bodyguards.

Seeing Audrey Hepburn's big belly, Monroe's face flashed with regret, then quickly returned to normal, and faced Audrey Hepburn like a fire rose.

"Hepburn, you are pregnant again, congratulations!"

Audrey Hepburn responded gracefully: "Thank you! I'm sorry for your experience, but I believe you can be a mother!"

When Monroe heard this, she felt regret again, and said sadly: "Thank you for your blessing! Being a mother is every woman's dream, and I admire your bravery." Then she looked at Richie and Lin Zhichao, and then stared at On Lin Zhichao.

Because there are rumors that Audrey Hepburn's child is a mixed race (all rumors, there are actually no media photos as evidence), could it be related to this man!

"Who is this?"

Audrey Hepburn introduced her in a formal manner: "It is our company's partner, Mr. Lin Zhichao from Hong Kong. All the Barbie dolls owned by our company are produced by his factory."

Monroe's eyes moved back and forth between Audrey Hepburn and Lin Zhichao, then she took the initiative to extend her right hand and said: "Mr. Lin, thank you for producing Barbie dolls for the children of the world."

Lin Zhichao responded politely: "Miss Audrey trusts me!"

Although she doubted the relationship between the two, Monroe quickly got into work mode and asked about the filming process.

The shooting process is to shoot the looks in a studio, and then use them as the prototype of Barbie dolls. Of course, only one is used, and the rest can be used as advertising posters.

Throughout the whole process, Lin Zhichao and Audrey Hepburn stood together and got along very naturally, but there was no intimate behavior.

In this era, the level of 'paparazzi' is very poor, or has not yet appeared, so celebrity scandals are all fabricated and do not require any evidence. For example, the scandals between Monroe and the Kennedy brothers were all processed by later generations in order to make money. In fact, no evidence has ever been leaked; the occasional blurry photos are just photoshopped by someone.

Therefore, Lin Zhichao and Audrey Hepburn do not intend to make it public. After all, this is the most advantageous, and both parties are used to this kind of life.

During this meeting, Lin Zhichao had no thoughts about Monroe. He would not be so confident. Moreover, Monroe's private life was not as miserable as later generations said, and it was impossible for her to cheat in marriage.

So after everyone chatted in the office for a while, Monroe left with others.

"Is it beautiful?" Audrey Hepburn asked with a smile while sitting in the chairman's seat.

"Very beautiful! But a little different from you!"

Lin Zhichao wandered around Audrey Hepburn's office, but he was actually looking for any suspicious spy equipment. After all, Audrey Hepburn is a ‘spokesperson’, and the power of the company lies with the management team headed by Richie.

The only weapon that can check Rich's management is absolute equity, which can fire him at any time. Of course, the two sides are currently cooperating happily.

Audrey Hepburn looked at the skin of her arms happily. Even if she didn't rub anything, it was much better than Monroe just now.

In the villa.

Lin Xiner circled around Audrey Hepburn. She never dreamed that her brother would actually get hold of Audrey Hepburn. Even my nephew is already three and a half years old, and he still has one in his belly.

Audrey Hepburn naturally also likes Lin Xiner very much. This is the first time she has met Lin Zhichao's family, and the joy in her heart is self-evident.

Only Lin Zhichao couldn't help but said: "Lin Xiner, where is your diploma?"

This is the first person in the Lin family to graduate from college. Although he is 25 years old after graduation, Lin Zhichao still attaches great importance to it.

Lin Xiner stuck out her tongue, quickly went to take out her diploma, and handed it to Lin Zhichao respectfully. She even doubted that if she failed to graduate successfully, her brother would not let her into the house.

Here, Lin Zhichao was stroking Lin Xiner's graduation certificate, feeling slightly excited. The Lin family has finally begun to restore its ancestral glory. Although the standard of this college student is far less than that of his grandfather, he is still a college student and can set a good example for his children.

The reason why Lin Xiner graduated from college so many years later was because her previous education was taught by her father, which was all in Chinese. After coming to Hong Kong, she caught up step by step.

"How's it going? I didn't embarrass you, did I?" Lin Xiner said happily.

"Well, you didn't embarrass me! When you go back, work hard and keep up your hard work; of course, you must also open up interpersonal relationships, otherwise how will you meet your brother-in-law!"

"elder brother!"

Lin Xiner started acting coquettishly.

Of course, she is still in a good mood. Her brother does not introduce anyone to her, which means that he completely respects her ideas and is free to love. It's a pity that she hasn't seen a boy who can make her heart beat so far. Maybe it's because the people in her family are too good!

Of course her brother is the best. Now even her eldest nephew has shown skills that make her ashamed. He has graduated from fifth grade at the age of nine and has performed very well. If this trend continues, Lin Ruihuan will graduate from a prestigious school at the age of twenty. By then, her aunt, I am really ashamed of myself.

Audrey Hepburn also picked up Lin Xiner's diploma with an envious look on her face. People who graduate from prestigious universities are liked wherever they go.

"great!"

"Thank you sister-in-law!"

Lin Xiner's sweet words made Audrey Hepburn very happy, and then Lin Xiner received a 'necklace' as a gift.

"Sister-in-law, next time you come to Hong Kong, I will be responsible for accompanying you, if my brother is not free during the day!" Lin Xiner continued to flatter her.

Naturally, she would not complain about her brother's behavior of hiding beauties. After all, his brother had already married two people. What's more, the two sisters-in-law would not make trouble with her brother when they learned about this kind of thing. She could see it.

In the Lin family, Lin Zhichao is the 'emperor' and everyone must listen to him.

It is precisely because she knows how to get along that she pleases Audrey Hepburn and thinks of giving her a family's care.

As expected, Audrey Hepburn said happily: "That's great, it's settled! I like Hong Kong very much and will come often in the future."

Lin Xiner nodded like a chicken pecking at rice!

Only Lin Zhichao smiled and said: "It seems like I am not accompanying you every time you come here."

He even bought a bungalow in Mid-levels as Audrey Hepburn's residence in Hong Kong.

Audrey Hepburn responded: "You're busy working!"

The implication is that every time she comes to Hong Kong, Lin Zhichao may spend at least one day during the day to accompany her around Hong Kong, and the rest after get off work.

Lin Zhichao stopped arguing. He was indeed busy at work. When he came to the United States this time, he first stayed in Los Angeles for three days, then flew to New York for business. He flew back to Los Angeles today, and had to return to Hong Kong the day after tomorrow.

The main thing is shipping, which consumes Lin Zhichao's energy the most. He needs to go abroad frequently for inspections and contacts.

For example, in the industrial field, Lin Zhichao only needs to plan good products and then leave the work to his subordinates, and he only needs to supervise; as for the real estate field, it is also relatively easy.

Of course, in the industrial and real estate fields, this is because Lin Zhichao is relatively decentralized, and Tang Caiyun is now involved in the specific work of Yangtze River Industries and has become Lin Zhichao's assistant.

In this way, Audrey Hepburn has officially become Lin Zhichao's "third wife". It doesn't matter whether she meets Tang Caiyun and Xu Caiying or not. We can meet each other when the time is right, and no one will make a fuss.

At the end of June, Lin Zhichao brought Lin Xiner back to Hong Kong.

When Lin Xiner was studying abroad, he was also sent to the United States; now that Lin Xiner graduated, he brought it back to Hong Kong.

It can be seen that Lin Zhichao likes this sister very much. In the future, Lin Xiner's nephews may not get this double treatment. They may be sent to study abroad at most, and they will have to come back on their own when they come back.

Upon returning home, the enthusiasm of the two sister-in-laws and nephews made Lin Xiner both happy and ashamed.

After all, she got along very well with Audrey Hepburn and accepted the third sister-in-law from the bottom of her heart.

But she quickly calmed down and comforted herself. The two sisters-in-law would not say anything when they heard about this.

During the dinner, Tang Caiyun said: "Does Xiner plan to take a break before going to work, or go to work right away, sister-in-law will accompany you to work!"

As the chairman of the remuneration committee and assistant to the general manager, Tang Caiyun is the ‘boss’ in the company. Even if Lin Zhichao is no longer involved, the senior management will report some matters to her. Although Tang Caiyun will not express too many opinions, but like the "Queen" of London, the Prime Minister has to do work and report to her every week.

Lin Xiner said: "I will go to work tomorrow on Monday, but sister-in-law, I don't want you to accompany me, otherwise I will really go to work as a 'eldest lady', and then everyone will not be able to alienate me. I will go directly to find Manager Liang reported and asked him to arrange my official position, anyway, everyone has already known each other, so there will be no problem!"

Liang Guangchang is the project manager of Miramar Hotel, and Miramar Hotel includes 'Miramar Hotel (Five-star)' and 'Miramar Shopping Center', which are definitely standard equipment for large enterprises. Although they are still under construction and planning, Still a lot of work.

Tang Caiyun smiled and said: "This girl is quite strong, that's fine, your brother has high hopes for you, and my sister-in-law will not hold back."

"No way! Thank you, sister-in-law!"

Seeing this scene, Xu Caiying pinched Lin Xiner's little face and said, "You two sisters, you really don't give me any face. You have better grades in school than me, and you even care about work more than me!"

Lin Xiner was no longer the quiet person she was before. She gently knocked Xu Caiying's hand off and said, "Second sister-in-law, we are not sisters, you are my sister-in-law!"

Good guy, there is quite a plot for future generations-I regard you as a good sister, but you want to be my sister-in-law.

After all, Xu Caiying is a mother, and she was too embarrassed to appear too much in front of the children, so she said: "Then the classmate is always real!"

Everyone laughed! (End of chapter)
