Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    For those who enjoy life, breakfast, lunch or dinner are all worth spending more time to enjoy.

    It is not only a filling of the stomach, but also a kind of enjoyment for the taste buds, and it is also a kind of spiritual rest.

    All right.

    Such thoughts are of course only those petty bourgeoisie women have.

    And Huo Zhuzhu, who is called "the model of petty bourgeoisie beauty" by Xiao Qi, naturally practices this.

    Xiao Qi had heard that in Fairy Real Estate Rongcheng Branch, the rest area of ??the office on the floor dedicated to Huo Zhuzhu had always been the most elegant and relaxing place. Huo Zhuzhu made it look like a paradise.  , eating and drinking afternoon tea there is definitely the most enjoyable.

    ¡°Perhaps Xiao Qi himself has no sense of aesthetics. Anyway, the last time he went to Huo Zhuzhu¡¯s place, he didn¡¯t see any difference.

    Today, it just so happened that Xiao Qi brought a set meal himself and sat in a corner on the third floor to eat. Not long after, he heard a few girls sitting in a partitioned compartment behind him.

    The reason why I said it was a girl was because Xiao Qi smelled several completely different perfumes, all of which were high-end ones and smelled quite good.

    "Sister Zhuzhu, I heard that you went to the Maldives some time ago and booked an island for yourself, which shocked the foreigners. Is it true?" A girl asked not long after.

    Xiao Qicai was thinking that this "Sister Zhuzhu" could not be Huo Zhuzhu. Sure enough, Huo Zhuzhu's voice rang out: "Giggle~~ It's nothing! In fact, it's mainly because this time is in the Maldives.  During the peak season, there were too many people. Our family didn¡¯t go out to watch people, so we just booked a small island and had a lot of fun.¡±

    "You must have spent enough money, right?" Another girl asked carefully.

    "Well, we were there for almost two weeks and spent a total of 2 million yuan. We spent all the performance bonus that my eldest sister gave me some time ago." Huo Zhuzhu said in a sweet voice, but there was something wrong no matter how you heard it.  The smell of arrogance and showing off.

    ¡°Wow~~Sister Zhuzhu, you are so willing~~¡±

    "Yes, our company knows how to enjoy. Sister Zhuzhu is still number one."

    ¡°My family rented an island and asked everyone on the island to serve me. I have never dreamed of living like this~~¡±

    Several little girls were chirping, and Huo Zhuzhu chuckled softly, fully enjoying their admiration.

    Xiao Qi also smiled secretly and shook his head. This girl is really willing to spend money on pleasure.  It cost 2 million in 2 weeks. Even in 2008, when the Maldives was not occupied by Chinese tourists, even for a small island, it was very amazing!

    "You don't understand, what am I? Many rich people have bought their own private islands in the Maldives. That's awesome!" Huo Zhuzhu said, "The island I went to this time is  It belongs to a Frenchman. I heard that he only spent 200,000 US dollars when he bought it 20 years ago. Now you can¡¯t buy it for 5 million US dollars!¡±

    "Wow, I really envy foreigners who can buy their own islands." A girl said, "Sister Zhuzhu. When you get rich, you can just buy an island and let us take advantage of it to travel. Then  That¡¯s great~~¡±

    "You shouldn't come to me about this matter. You have to go to the eldest sister so that she can have the money to buy it." Huo Zhuzhu said: "But this is not easy. Now the Maldives no longer sells islands. Only dozens of islands were sold before.  Only those who bought the islands in 2016 have the right to sell their islands. But now that the tourism industry in the Maldives is becoming more and more popular, many of them are just renting them out and have already made a lot of money. No one is ready to sell them.  ¡±

    Several girls discussed the beauty of the Maldives there again, and it took a full hour before the conversation ended with unfulfilled interest.

    Xiao Qi had already quietly left the restaurant and returned to the office.

    Huo Zhuzhu¡¯s words just now reminded Xiao Qi of something.  That is, you can buy a few small islands and give them to your parents and wives. The meaning of this is much better than giving some houses, jewelry and antiques.

    Foreign islands are fully owned.  Once you buy it, it will be your property for generations. Unless an undersea volcano erupts and destroys the island, or the sea level rises and the island is submerged, you can keep it forever.

    Among the islands for sale, there are a few that are the most famous.

    The first one is the British Virgin Islands, where Xiao Qi¡¯s friend Richard Branson, the owner of Virgin, bought an island and renovated it and rented it out to others.

    And then there are the Bahamas,David Copperfield, the King of Magic, purchased 4 islands here in one go.

    The third is an artificial island near Dubai. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt bought one here, but this is not the "heart-shaped island" that Angelina gave to Pitt as a birthday gift.  The island is near New York.

    In the above three areas, the development of private islands is very mature. Basically, there are templates for construction when purchased, and water, electricity, transportation, etc. are very convenient.

    The rest are the coastal areas of some countries, such as the United States, Brazil, Thailand and other places, which usually exist alone and have no climate, and require great efforts to repair, build and coordinate infrastructure.

    What Xiao Qi is interested in is not the above-mentioned areas, but the private island in the Maldives that Huo Zhuzhu mentioned.

    Because the Maldives is indeed a very beautiful place, very suitable for easy travel and exclusive travel, the scenery here can not be overstated as paradise on earth.

    If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the world, coming to the Maldives is undoubtedly an excellent choice.

    As for the rumors that the Maldives is likely to be submerged due to climate warming, Xiao Qi does not believe it.

    Because twenty years ago, when the Maldives was attracting tourists from all over the world, it had already used the gimmick of "a string of pearls that will disappear from the earth in twenty years."

    Then twenty years later, the Maldives¡¯ propaganda turned into ¡°a string of pearls that will disappear from the earth in twenty years.¡±

    Earth warming is a fact, but the speed is not as exaggerated as advertised. These crisis legends are just spread by the Maldives to stimulate your desire to travel.

    In the young man's opinion, it is impossible for such a thing to happen within at least 100 years.

    It is enough to buy a few small islands for your wife and parents and enjoy them for decades for your whole family.

    As for what islands future generations want to buy, that is their business, and Xiao Qi does not need to think too carefully about it for them.

    But what¡¯s a bit troublesome is that the Maldives has stopped selling islands since a few years ago. So far, there are only more than 60 private islands, most of which have been used as holiday islands.

    The Maldives is an archipelagic country with approximately more than 1,200 islands, of which only more than 100 are developed and utilized. By 2013, there will be more than 200 islands, and most of the islands are still undeveloped.

    As for whether to buy islands that have been purchased by private individuals or to focus on undeveloped islands, Xiao Qi has not made up his mind.

    But he is the one being consulted.

    I made a call to the headquarters of Citibank in Chengdu. Vice President Qu Liang quickly answered the phone: "Hey, Mr. Qi, it's rare for you to call me!"

    "What does it mean to be rare? Have I not given you enough business?" Xiao Qi laughed, "Here comes the good news, Mr. Qu, I have a big deal for you!"

    Qu Liang perked up and said, "Young Master Qi, that's all you command!"

    Even Xiao Qi said it was a big deal, so how could that be a big deal?

    "I want to buy 10-20 islands in the Maldives. How can I get it done?" Xiao Qi was unambiguous and stated his request directly.

    Citibank is more of a broker than a bank. In addition to the bank's own business, they also provide many customized services to meet all the requirements of customers. This is their belief as an American bank and investment bank - to satisfy customers.  , only then can you make money!

    Qu Liang¡¯s knowledge is still very broad. He was stunned when he heard this: ¡°Isn¡¯t the Maldives no longer selling islands?¡±

    "If it's so easy, why should I ask you?" Xiao Qi asked, "Try hard to help me realize this wish. The islands in the Maldives are not cheap! A business of two to three billion US dollars should be quite big for the Chengdu branch.  Right?"

    "That's true." Qudian nodded. At the same time, he also realized that this was Xiao Qi's business. Just the improvement of this relationship was a good thing.

    "You have to do a better job, lest Tony say, why didn't I let him do it?" Xiao Qi warned with a smile.

    "Haha, if you want to find Tony, there is nothing you can do." Qu Liang suddenly smiled and said: "Sorry, Qi Shao, let me introduce myself again. I, Qu Liang, will soon take up the post of President of Citibank Chengdu Branch.  , please give me your advice in the future!¡±

    "Oh?" Xiao Qi was surprised, "Tony got promoted?"

    "Haha, yes." Qu Liang replied: "He went to New York for a meeting a few days ago. He called back and said that he was about to be transferred to the position of president of the Hong Kong branch. Mochiyev, the former president of the Hong Kong branch, would be appointed as the president of the Asia region.  The position of President, former President of Asia RegionMr. Jiepu will serve as executive vice president of Citibank.  "

    Qu Liang mentioned such a long list of position changes, but Xiao Qi understood immediately upon hearing this that this was purely a sign of the victory of Jabil's Asian department.

    "Where is Wade?" Xiao Qi asked smoothly.

    "Mr. Wade also joined the head office and took up his old job as the head of the asset management department." Qu Liang smiled and said, "I really can't hide it from you, Mr. Qi!"

    When Xiao Qi asked Wade, it meant that he knew the reason.

    It¡¯s that simple to talk to smart people.

    Speaking of which, the high-level promotions of the Asian department were partly due to the shock after the subprime mortgage crisis, and partly due to their friendship with Xiao Qi.  !
