A dream life 3
This morning I drove my vintage Holden to Eastern Kowloon picking up John Burns from his Godown attic home. Both of us are interested to go for a party organized by the Hong Kong Association of Banks. John wishes to deliver his business name cards to the guests, and I want to find potential business partners from the guests.
While I was driving my car going through the cross harbor tunnel, I told John, "Selling underwear on Internet is not a professional."
John replied, "I sell underwear to professionals such as track and field athletes, football players, and nude actors."
"Do the nude actors wear underwear?" I asked.
"Yes, they wore the jumpsuit underwear to avoid rubber marks on the skin." He answered.
Woo, that is very professional.
Anyway, I parked my car in the City Hall public car park. After 20 minutes walking, we reached the Hong Kong Association of Banks, I told the receptionist that we were the representatives of Mr. Peter Duncan, we shall go to the party on behalf of him.
The receptionist asked us our names and mailing addresses. After a few minutes, she said to me, "Miss Underwood, our clerks shall verify your identities with Mr. Duncan, and then we shall send you the invitation letters."
After coming out from the office building, John said to me that he'd saw his friend sitting inside the coffee shop; and so we went inside the coffee shop.
John introduced his friend Mr. Ko, a cosmetic company's CEO.
I sat down and started telling Mr. Ko, "I had been to many drugstores and cosmetics retailers, all the shop assistants told me the UV face protector, the one that has anti-dullness and SPF 50+ and PA ++++ purple color based sunscreen were out of stock, what have you been doing lately? If I keep on sunbathing, my face will turn yellowish brown, and you have to provide an extra purple color sunscreen cream for me. "
Then Mr. Ko handed me his business name card, and smiled.
I found out he was not working in L'oreal.
I smiled to Mr. Ko and said, "Does your company selling the UV protection Pink color lipstick?"
John said, "Please click into my web site and search for your goods."
John and I left coffee shop before noon, we must go to Mr. Duncan's new Art Deco home to meet the renovator, talk to him about constructing a swimming pool.
We reached the house, John found the black and white cement pattern square tiles floors, he loved it.
I told him, "This kind of cement floor is 'Out of print', no worker can reproduce it if it was damaged. This was made in 1920, I've heard that Mrs. Obama had bought a wood boards 1920 big house in Chicago, it has this kind of tile floors. That house was the Southern American style during the British Settlement period. Have you watched the film 'Gone with the wind'? A classy house with a classy hostess. If Mrs. Obama having a home party celebrating 100 years old house, I believe all the guests must shoes off inside her house."
John replied, "No need, I am selling shoes that have wiping floors function, mops are attached to the soles. The guests wiping floors while dancing the Tennessee
Waltz."
I said, "Your web site only serves Hong Kong region, she cannot buy mops shoes from you. What if you expand territory?"
