Hong Kong Island Old Events

Chapter 69 Going north for business (update 410)

"Where is your person? Come out and take a look first!" Chu Yunnan did not object anymore, but wanted to see his strength. He Dingxian came prepared as usual, picked up the wine glass and stood up, then fell heavily in front of the sofa seat. :"boom!"

The sturdy whiskey glass made a dull sound.

"All the estate boys who are not afraid of death in Shek Kip Mei, stand up!" Ho Ting-yin roared angrily, and in the corner, twenty estate boys who were already ready to go stood up together.

When they arrived at Paramount, a ten-mile foreign market, they were already restless, always paying attention to the movements of the big boss. The wealthy and opulent life in Paramount also dazzled their eyes and aroused their desire to get ahead.

Chu Yunnan followed the movement and looked sideways, and when he saw the villagers who were dressed in shabby clothes, with numb expressions and a sloppy air, his expression finally showed a solemn look: "He Tanmu, twenty people are considered capital? "

He Dingxian only said: "A wealthy family has the advantageous resources of a wealthy family, and the housing estates also have the survival rules of the housing estates. I am different from Miss Chu. I am a bad guy who was born in a housing estate. I became a policeman with my father's settlement allowance. I have many people under my command." Estate boy!"

"Twenty died, and there are still twenty more. There are more than 20,000 villagers in Shek Kip Mei. If you use up a few of them? I will use them all for you!"

To do business going north, you don’t just need to transport freight to Haojiang and Shenzhen. European and American capital is constantly blocking material routes.

On the sea road, either brightly or covertly, there are groups of islands on the sea, specifically watching the freighters traveling from Hong Kong Island. On the black market, British capital also continues to sell extremely poor quality, fake and shoddy medicines and supplies at high prices.

Ships not only need to form a fleet to go to sea together, but each ship also needs strong men who can carry guns and even fight on the side to escort and protect the cargo ship.

Basically, every smuggling fleet going north will encounter pirates. If the cargo ship is saved, everything will be fine. Once it is robbed, big businessmen will lose the entire year's profits, and small businesses will directly go bankrupt. With huge profits, the risks are extremely high.

The peninsula has only been at war for a year, and there are still two years left to work on it. If you do it well, you will be able to accumulate enough economic capital, and secondly, you will be able to accumulate sufficient political resources.

When Chu Yunnan heard this, she silently pondered. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Please stay here and meet me at the Chao Fu Restaurant in Central tomorrow evening."

"Miss Chu, I will be there on time." He Dingxian drank the wine in his glass, proudly handed it over, stood up and left the box.

Chu Yunnan called Uncle Zou to settle down, and continued to drink with his uncle's group. The majority of his uncle's group were playboys, who had never been in charge of business but had seen the world, and never mentioned what happened just now.

If Miss Chu really cooperates with that little Tanmu, Xiao Tanmu will also be a person in the future, but he must remember it deeply to avoid offending.

However, Chu Yunnan had something on her mind and was not interested in drinking. She reluctantly flattered Zhong Yi's dancer one more time and left Paramount with her troops.

Central, Li Yuen Street East, a four-storey foreign-style building courtyard, is the permanent residence of Mr. Chu of Xingzhou Business Company.

At ten o'clock, Boss Chu was sitting in the dining room drinking Qi-tonifying and calming soup as usual. When he put down the soup bowl and was about to go upstairs to rest, a woman in a black suit walked into the living room.

"Come back?" Chu Weinan is short, has dark skin, and has a bald head. Only an emerald green ring on his thumb reveals a hint of nobility.

He spoke in a very elegant manner, but his voice was a bit deep, as if his throat had been damaged by long-term exertion.

"Yes." Chu Yunnan took off her leather shoes and put on a pair of pink wool slippers, looking like a young lady at home.

Upstairs, the sound of children crying could be heard from time to time. Chu Weinan looked up at the clock on the wall and asked in a calm tone: "You came back two hours early today. What happened to you outside?"

Chu Yunnan knew that she couldn't hide it from her father's eyes and ears, so she pulled up a chair and sat down at the dining table, taking a sip of the warm water handed to her by the servant: "I discussed a shipping business with a friend and planned to send someone to transport goods to the north."

Chu Weinan nodded and said: "This is indeed the most profitable business in Hong Kong. Anyone with courage will give it a try, but doing business is not that simple."

"Can the partners be trusted?"

Chu Yunnan smiled and said: "Business depends on people. One more friend means one more opportunity. Using each other is also a kind of trust."

"It's just that the smuggling business is not that profitable. If we just transport junk goods, we will not only offend the employer, but also affect my father's brand. So after thinking about it, I first say hello to my father and ask him if he can support me."

Chu Weinan was noncommittal: "You have so many friends to support you, and I am not missing one. I separated Xinghui Company for you to manage, just to support you. You don't need to ask me what to do, you are the star." Boss of Hui Company, there is a shortage of goods in the north, which item do you plan to transport?"

Chu Yunnan held the water cup and said: "Do the fine work first, then the long work. Just transport the rubber at the beginning, and we'll talk about the rest later."

Chu Weinan said: "Rubber is a good thing. It is small enough to be used in rubber shoes and belts, and large enough to be used in tires and cables. The consumption is huge."

"I started out by making rubber. If you are going to do it, do it well and don't embarrass me."

Chu Yunnan said in a deep voice: "Dad, why don't I remember that you are so easy to talk to?"

"Haha." Chu Weinan laughed out loud with his often stern face: "Businessmen are most afraid that their children will fail to live up to expectations and spend their lives working hard. If you want to go out and make a career, can I support you?"

"I didn't let you take over the Xingzhou Company at the beginning. The reason is very simple. You, a girl, will get married sooner or later. How can you give up your family business to others!"

"So, you must let You Nan inherit the Xingzhou Company and give it to you as the Xinghui Company. Because you are my daughter, I will give you a dowry. If you want to earn a dowry and status for yourself, I will only be happy. of."

In this era, girls like Chu Yunnan who want to fight against life do not deny the fate of getting married.

Chu Weinan said: "Whether you can make the Xinghui Chamber of Commerce big or just use it as a money bag is up to you, but it is not safe for five ships to go north. You can anchor under Rentai Shipping. Others are transporting goods together. There are at least dozens of companies in Hong Kong that are shipping to the north. You are not missing. Besides, Rentai Shipping has a British background. If the ship is found by the Marine Police, the ghost guy will also come forward to contact you, which can save a lot of money. Less money.”

As a port city, Hong Kong Island has always been a holy land for smuggling, and the Marine Police is also the leading department among violent organizations, a sharp sword in the hands of ghosts.

In Hong Kong movies, all the high-ranking police officials who took bribes and corruption were caught by the Marine Police!

Hong Kong Island's role as the trade window for the North has been highlighted at this time. Not only Chinese businessmen have the courage to seize the opportunity, but also the ghost guys will not let go of the big profits!

There are more ghost smugglers on Hong Kong Island than Chinese businessmen, and they often find a Chinese businessman as a front, who specializes in transporting garbage to the north to defraud money. The defrauded funds are transferred to the hands of foreign companies behind the scenes. There are few companies that are truly willing to serve the Chinese. To "dig for gold in shit".

Otherwise, there will be no hand-picked leaders in "Airship Tai" in the future. Companies that are as prominent as Glory and are willing to truly serve the Chinese people will rise one after another in the future.

Of course, for a top talent like the "Airship Tai" who organizes his own fleet and operates independently, and brings a purchase document from the north to take care of everything from beginning to end, his heart will beat too hard, and the ghost will take action to suppress him. It’s no surprise that it’s been decades.

No one knows the bitterness of being inferior to others for decades. In exchange for a lifetime of fame, it can be said that a hero is just like this.

The Chu family grew up in the Mainland. It is impossible for them to imitate the ghost guys and deceive people to make money. They should earn what they should earn and not do what they cannot do.

“Treat people with sincerity and do business with trust.”

It is also the golden sign that Boss Chu can single-handedly establish the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce!

It is impossible to smash this sign, but you can be smart about what you do. Taking advantage of Gui Lao's characteristic of always turning a blind eye to British-owned companies is the method that Chinese businessmen are best at.

"I can save it!" Chu Yunnan nodded gently.

"That's right."

Chu Weinan stood up and planned to leave. He acted neatly and neatly, but thinking about his daughter's first official voyage, he couldn't help but turn around and ask: "By the way, do you know who He Dingxian is, right?"

Chu Yunnan said eloquently: "A man from the estate who dares to kill Liu Fu is ruthless, ferocious and has a brain."

Chu Weinan nodded and said: "As long as you know, it's okay to make friends of any religion. The key is to know it well. But fortunately, they join the Chamber of Commerce and are considered one of their own, so they don't dare to do anything to cheat."

"It is definitely true that he is looking for you to cooperate in business. However, what he wants is not just to share the shipping profits, but to use your power to start a business. It's up to you whether you want to use his power. If you don't want to use his people, I can Ask Chen Shijiu to pick someone for you."

"In short, if you want people, money, or power, I will take care of them all. You are my daughter." Chu Weinan sighed: "The only adult child of the Chu family!"

Chu Yunnan sighed: "Dad, go to bed early. Chen Shijiu is yours, and I want Hua Yaoxian to be mine."

"Um."

As long as Chu Weinan ensures that his daughter will not be deceived, everything else is trivial.

In the evening, He Dingxian returned to Kowloon District early and went to the movie store on Shanghai Street to sit and rest. After the movie store opened, he didn't have time to watch a movie in the store, so it was good to relax while he had time. .

The store manager also specially showed a relatively recent movie "A Generation of Enchantress" for the boss. It was shot by the Great Wall Studio and is a film from the last period of the "Old Great Wall".

At present, "Yuan Yanggu" has taken charge of the Great Wall Pictures, reorganizing the "Old Great Wall" into the "New Great Wall", bringing together a large number of elite directors and well-known actors, determined to break away from the high profile of ideology and develop works in the direction of social realism, making " "New Great Wall" once became the most well-known Mandarin studio and the mainstay of Mandarin films in Hong Kong Island.

Qian Weishan and Chen Jiale were sitting on wooden stools, eating melon seeds, drinking tea, and watching movies, but they were not as relaxed as the big brother.

As soon as he got the gun, he ran to discuss business with the daughter of the president of the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce. If you hang out with such a big shot, you have a greater chance of getting busted than if you stand out.
