Chapter 173 Let’s call him “Er Gouzi”!
On the same day that the Hong Kong government released economic data, Lo Hau-ling was also admitted to the Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital on Village Road in Happy Valley, Hong Kong Island.
This is a private general hospital established in 1922, famous for its high-quality medical care, advanced medical technology and professional service level.
When wealthy people in Hong Kong want to have children, Hong Kong Yanghe Hospital is their first choice.
According to the family doctor's advice, Lu Qiaoling's due date is within two or three days, so she was admitted to the hospital in advance just in case.
In fact, Fang Hexuan had already made an appointment with the director of the Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital for delivery care services three months ago.
When Lu Qiaoling arrived at the Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital, the hospital director personally greeted her at the gate, and everyone in the hospital was on high alert and took her very seriously.
Nonsense, this is the mother of the richest man giving birth. Even if it is not for the purpose of establishing a good relationship with the richest man Fang, the topic alone is a good public relations advertisement.
Fang Hexuan is a well-known figure in Hong Kong, and his mother Lu Qiaoling is no exception.
Women in Hong Kong, young and old, envied her very much and believed that Lu Qiaoling was honored because of her son.
This statement itself is not wrong, but how many people can endure the hardship of raising two children alone?
All parents know that for a couple to raise a child is like losing half of their life, let alone a woman raising two children alone?
They only saw Lu Qiaoling's glory, but completely ignored the hardships she had endured in the past ten years.
Not to mention gender equality or respect for women, just the sadness involved was enough to make Fang Hexuan feel a pain in his liver just thinking about it.
Many people in Hong Kong say that the richest man is mentally ill and insists on finding a stepfather for himself.
But Fang Hexuan was considering his mother's happiness in the rest of her life, not his own face.
What's more, You Bingwen had indeed shared hardships with their family, and this quality is very valuable in Hong Kong.
When the richest man’s mother gave birth, of course all the treatment was top-notch.
The suite is over 100 square meters and has everything, including a bedroom for a caregiver, making it almost like home.
At ten o'clock in the morning on September 9, Lu Qiaoling entered the operating room.
At six o'clock that afternoon, after eight hours of hard work, she finally gave birth to a baby boy.
This is a little fat boy, weighing more than 7.8 kilograms, and is chubby.
The moment You Bingwen saw his biological son, the middle-aged man's eyes became misty.
The next day, Lu Qiaoling, who was transferred from the operating room to the suite, had mostly recovered her complexion. She had safely survived the critical moment that older mothers face.
Even though You Bingwen personally gave red envelopes to the doctors and nurses who performed the surgery, Mr. Fang was still very generous and gave a thank-you payment of 10,000 Hong Kong dollars to all the medical staff in the hospital.
The medical staff of this most expensive private hospital in Hong Kong are of course worldly-wise, and their monthly salary is very considerable in Hong Kong.
But everyone couldn't hide the joy on their faces after receiving an unexpected bonus of HK$10,000 for no reason.
At the same time, other wealthy people or middle-class people who were recuperating or giving birth in this hospital had to sigh that the richest man was very generous in his work.
On the third day, Lu Qiaoling was able to get out of bed and walk a few steps occasionally, and the little fat boy was sent from the intensive care unit to the suite, where he slept on the baby care bed next to his mother.
You Bingwen and Lu Qiaoling discussed it and decided to give the child a formal name when he is one month old, and use his nickname instead now.
After Fang Hexuan found out, he suggested calling the fat boy "Er Gouzi" so that he would be easier to raise!
When You Bingwen heard this nickname, his facial muscles twitched, but he did not refute or refuse.
"Damn it, my son is the second dog, so isn't that right, I am the first dog?"
Lao You complained silently in his heart. He wanted to say no, but Fang Hexuan said the nickname "Er Gouzi" and added a few more words:
"Call him Er Gouzi, he's easy to raise, and I'll give him another red envelope of 999.999 Hong Kong dollars, so that he can have a long life and good fortune!" What can You Bingwen do? If he refuses now, will his son blame him when he grows up?
This is of course a joke. The main reason is that Fang Hexuan's money is too tempting. Lao You's business thinking is dominant now. It is too worthwhile to exchange an ugly nickname for 10 million Hong Kong dollars!
The richest man has a little brother, such interesting news can't be kept secret after all.
Rather than letting others report it first, it is better to keep your own newspaper cheap.
Of course, it was impossible to let Oriental Daily take pictures of Er Gouzi.
The most he revealed to the outside world was that Fang Hexuan gave his younger brother a very indecent and ugly nickname.
What he didn’t know was that many Hong Kong people burst out laughing when they saw the three words “Er Gouzi” while having morning tea.
That morning, the person who was scolded the most by the restaurant waiters was definitely Mr. Fang, the richest man.
"Ergouzi" is a typical nickname given by northern Chinese people to their children, and it is rarely used in Fujian and Guangdong.
Therefore, when everyone heard it for the first time, they found it funny and started to fantasize about it.
"Could this be Mr. Fang's silent protest against his mother's remarriage?"
This is the self-righteous answer that many Hong Kong people come up with after thinking about it.
But Fang Hexuan felt that calling him "Er Gouzi" was friendly and funny, and it was a very cheerful name, how great!
In short, news about Fang Hexuan is always popular among the Hong Kong media and ordinary citizens of Hong Kong.
He is not an entertainment star, but he is more talked about than the biggest entertainment stars.
Lu Qiaoling was not too unhappy about calling her youngest son "Er Gouzi".
After all, she also came from the mainland, so she was not averse to the practice of deliberately giving someone an ugly name to make it easier to support them.
In addition, this name was given by her most beloved eldest son. Doesn’t it just show that although the two brothers have the same mother and different fathers, they have established a relationship from the very beginning? No matter how you think about it, it’s a good thing!
You Bingwen had a son in middle age, and his excitement was not only shown on his face, but also spread to every passenger and driver.
That’s right, on the day after his son was born, Lao You gave red envelopes of 200 Hong Kong dollars to all the drivers under his company, which is more than 120 million Hong Kong dollars.
Normally, he would never be so generous.
In addition, he waived the HK$5 fare for every passenger who took his company's taxi on that day.
There are 5800 taxis, and one taxi can carry an average of more than 12 passengers in 30 hours a day.
This means that Lao You’s taxi company lost more than 90 Hong Kong dollars on that day.
For these two items alone, You Bingwen gave out more than 200 million red envelopes to Hong Kong people.
It can be seen how ecstatic he was at the birth of his son.
The birth of a baby in Hong Kong attracted the attention of countless media outlets and benefited many Hong Kong people.
After this baptism, Hong Kong people began to look forward to how the richest man would behave when Fang Hexuan gave birth to a child.
He can't be worse than his gigolo stepfather, right?
Fang Hexuan didn’t know what everyone was thinking. If he knew, he could only sigh, damn, Hong Kong people’s gossip passion is the highest among all Chinese people!
