Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings

"Everyone, the situation is very clear now. For Hong Kong to develop and brokerage to prosper, smooth traffic is essential!"

Li Jiacheng stood up instead of Lei Juekun and said.

He glanced around, feeling that he was so high up at this moment that anyone looking at him became the center of attention.

"It is true that rickshaws helped make a great contribution to Hong Kong's economy in the past, but now they are out of touch with the times. We need more comfortable, faster and better transportation services. Needless to say, taxis instead of rickshaws are the choice of the times! Therefore - ——”

Li Jiacheng looked at the tycoons with burning eyes and said in an unquestionable tone: "We will establish the largest taxi company in Hong Kong and make rickshaws completely withdraw from the stage of history. Which of you is in favor and who is against?"

Li Jiacheng wanted to say "who is in favor and who is against" for a long time.

In the past, he often heard Du Yongxiao say this at conferences. He felt that this sentence was very powerful and easy to show off. Unfortunately, he was not strong enough at that time. Du Yongxiao succeeded in pretending every time, and no one dared to oppose him.

Nowadays, times have changed, and I didn’t expect that Li Jiacheng could also use this sentence to show off. It was so cool.

Everyone at the scene looked at me and I looked at you.

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the collaboration between Li Jiacheng and Lei Juekun this time was brokered by the British Hong Kong government. To put it bluntly, they are both sons of the British Hong Kong government and are taken care of by those ghosts. Otherwise, it would be impossible to hand over such an important company involving transportation services. Set them up.

It is conceivable that if the two people's taxi company is really established, then all of Hong Kong will be using their company's taxis, which means that they have control of Hong Kong's transportation hub, and their strength and power will be further enhanced.

Li Zhaoji, a Hong Kong real estate tycoon, heard this and chewed his cigar without saying a word.

The focus of his business is on real estate and department stores, and there is no conflict with Li Jiacheng and others.

Li Zhaofu is the boss of Far East Securities and works in the financial industry. He has no problem with Li Jiacheng and Lei Juekun trying to dominate Hong Kong taxis.

Lin Baixin is the "garment king" of Hong Kong, Pang Dingyuan is the "steel king", and the Huo family is in the shipping business. Although everyone is jealous of the transportation business, they have no choice but to do so for some reasons, mainly because they are unwilling to get close to the British. do not give up.

At this moment, the scene was quiet.

No one raised a voice to object.

Li Jiacheng became even more proud, glanced around, and was about to speak-——

A voice said: "Sorry, I object!"

"Huh?" Everyone was stunned and looked around.

Crunch!

The door to the meeting was pushed open.

Looking at that person again, it was Yan Xiong.

Yan Xiong opened the door and respectfully made an invitation gesture toward the outside.

Immediately, Du Yongxiao, dressed in white, stepped in from outside.

He was wearing a top hat and walked calmly, as if he were at the Oscars awards ceremony, looking forward to the scene with a smile on his lips.

Suddenly seeing Du Yongxiao appear, the scene immediately became commotion.

"What's going on? Why is he here? It seems like he wasn't invited."

"Yes, I heard that he is now the spokesperson for those rickshaws."

"Ha, now we have something good to watch!"

After a commotion, the scene became quiet again.

The atmosphere seemed a little strange.

Du Yongxiao glanced at everyone.

Everyone sat around the oval conference table and turned to look at him.

Du Yongxiao shrugged: "Excuse me, are there any seats?"

"Ah Xiao, here!" Young Master Huo waved to him.

There happened to be a seat next to him.

Du Yongxiao smiled and walked towards him.

In full view of everyone, Yan Xiong stepped forward first to help Du Yongxiao pull out the chair.

Du Yongxiao sat down with his golden sword, smiled at his old friends Lin Baixin, Pang Dingyuan and others, then said hello to Li Zhaoji, Guo Desheng and others, and then looked at Li Jiacheng who was looking grim.

"Boss Li, why are you so dark-faced? Did I oppose you and make you angry?" Du Yongxiao took out the cigarette box and lighter and put them on his right side.

Li Jiacheng forced a smile on his face, "How could it be? Our meeting is open, fair and fair. Anyone who agrees or disagrees can do it!"

"Really, then I'll say it again, I object!" Du Yongxiao raised his hand.

Li Jiacheng smiled but said: "Sorry, Mr. Du! Actually, we are all very curious, why do you object?"

"Are you all curious, or are you alone?" Du Yongxiao smiled slightly, leaning on his chair and looking at Li Jiacheng.

Li Jiacheng said nothing.

Lei Juekun next to him said: "Ah Xiao, there are so many people here, you'd better speak clearly so as not to cause misunderstanding."

Du Yongxiao nodded, then opened the cigarette case, popped out a cigarette and bit it in the corner of his mouth, picked up the lighter, clicked it, lit it, took a puff, and said with squinted eyes: "The reason for my objection is very simple. The rickshaw is not an obsolete product of the times. On the contrary, in my opinion, they are still a rising company."

"Huh?" Everyone at the scene was stunned, suspecting that they heard wrongly.

All fools know that rickshaws are dead and taxis are replacing rickshaws, but Du Yongxiao still dares to say that they are Chaoyang.

Li Jiacheng was the first to laugh, and said in a sarcastic tone: "Mr. Du, I heard that you just came back from New York, USA, and you are not jet lag yet, so you are talking nonsense? Is the rickshaw a Chaoyang enterprise? This is the most ridiculous joke I have ever heard! You Are you saying that, Boss Lei?"

Li Jiacheng looked at Lei Juekun.

Lei Juekun is a good friend of Du Yongxiao, and the two have business contacts. Li Jiacheng did this mainly to test whether Lei Juekun and Du Yongxiao had broken up.

Lei Juekun laughed: "Let's just discuss the matter. In my opinion, rickshaw companies have completely fallen behind - Ah Xiao, what evidence do you have for what you just said?"

Du Yongxiao took a puff from his cigarette, and the faint smoke blurred his half-smiling face, making him look very mysterious.

Du Yongxiao took two puffs on his cigarette before raising his head and looking at Lei Juekun, Li Jiacheng and others. There was no fluctuation in his tone, and he said calmly: "You are all familiar with me. Since I said that, I must have my reason."

Just as Li Jiacheng was about to sneer, Du Yongxiao slowly stood up——

Yan Xiong stood up this time, came to the front, took out a huge map, and spread it on the whiteboard with a bang.

"What is he going to do?"

"What are you doing with the map?"

Everyone looked confused.

Li Jiacheng and Lei Juekun looked at each other, also confused.

Du Yongxiao came out of his seat and stepped to the map.

Yan Xiong handed him the pointer respectfully.

Everyone suddenly felt like they were going to class together.

Du Yongxiao chewed his cigarette, shook his pointer like a practice, clicked, pointed at the map and asked everyone: "Do you know what this is?"

"Who doesn't know the map of Hong Kong?" Li Jiacheng said angrily.

Another big boss also said in a strange tone: "Mr. Du, are you going to give us geography lessons? My geography knowledge is not good, but I don't need you to teach me."

Du Yongxiao smiled slightly.

Yan Xiong glared at the man: "Stop your voice and rush to the street!"

"you--"

That man's surname was Meng, and he was a Chinese boss after all. He ran four or five department stores. Anyone who disrespected him and called him "Boss Meng" was disrespectful to him, but now he was scolded by Yan Xiong, and his face immediately turned black.

But seeing Yan Xiong's murderous look, and remembering that Du Yongxiao behind him was known as the "street cleansing tiger" and the "bloody hand massacrer", he immediately softened and gave in.

When everyone saw this, they immediately stopped sneering on their faces. Only now did they seem to remember who Du Yongxiao was.

When Li Jiacheng saw that a mere dog Yan Xiong next to Du Yongxiao was crushing the big boss at the scene, he couldn't help but shake his head, "It's hopeless."

When Lei Juekun saw this, he knew that the intimidating power of Du Yongxiao had not disappeared, but that few people felt it when he went to the United States. Now that he is back, everyone understands that he is still the murderous man who kills without blinking an eye.

Young Master Huo felt proud. The more arrogant and explosive Du Yongxiao was, the happier he was. Don't forget, he was Du Yongxiao's good friend.

As for the other people at the scene, Lin Baixin, Pang Dingyuan and others, they were all friends of Du Yongxiao. Of course they didn't think anything of it. Instead, they felt that Boss Meng was looking for death.

As for real estate tycoons Li Zhaoji, Guo Desheng and others, their feeling is that Du Yongxiao is still so arrogant and eye-catching!

"Everyone, sit down and listen to what Ah Xiao has to say!" Mr. Huo stood up and smoothed things over with a smile.

Boss Meng took the opportunity to go downhill and said nothing.

Everyone looked at Du Yongxiao, curious about what he was going to do.

Du Yongxiao first threw the finished cigarette on the ground and crushed it with his foot. Then he took the pointer and tapped it on the map a few times. Then he smiled and said: "As we all know, there are three regions in Hong Kong, namely Hong Kong Island. Kowloon, and the New Territories! Within these three major areas, they are divided into eighteen small areas, which are——"

Everyone at the scene watched Du Yongxiao talk eloquently, talking about Hong Kong geography knowledge, and they were all scratching their heads in their hearts. They hated Du Yongxiao for treating them like students and using useless science knowledge.

It's a pity that Boss Meng just learned from the past, and these people don't dare to say anything even if they feel cowardly.

Du Yongxiao briefly popularized the geographical knowledge of Hong Kong, the three major districts and the eighteen communities, and then changed the subject: "Everyone here is in business, some are in real estate, some are in department stores, and some are in hardware, plastics, grain and oil. , making clothing and so on!”

Du Yongxiao glanced at the crowd: "Have you ever encountered a problem? A customer likes an item but cannot buy it due to some reasons, such as the distance is too far or it is inconvenient to carry. Even if he pays, he cannot get it. go home?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, you looked at me, I looked at you.

At this time, the boss Meng actually raised his hand and said: "I have encountered this situation before! The quality of the clothes I sell is very good. Unfortunately, due to rain or other reasons, or due to customization and other reasons, I cannot deliver it to the customer as soon as possible. "

Another big boss also raised his hand and said: "I make grain and oil. Everyone knows that grain and oil are very heavy, and most of the people who buy these are women, so -" Tan Tanshou said, "It's so troublesome. I have to hire someone every time." People help transport them.”

Once these people's chat boxes are turned on, they can't be turned off like a faucet.

"I'm in the building materials business. The steel bars and angle irons are very heavy. Every time I ship the goods, I have a headache. Those truck drivers keep raising the prices! It's hard on them!"

"I'm in the hardware business. Many times, customers call to buy a certain model of hardware. Unfortunately, the delivery is too far away, so the business can't be done!"

Everyone looked at each other and said something to each other, saying that they had to give up many customers because of distance and time issues in doing business.

Li Jiacheng is a smart man. When he saw this situation, he knew something was wrong.

Lei Juekun also frowned, guessing what Du Yongxiao was doing.

Other big guys, such as Li Zhaoji and others, have begun to look at the map, seeming to be thinking about something.

Although Hong Kong is a small place, the distance between Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories is very large. It takes up to five or six hours to travel by car.

So many people are stuck by this damn distance when doing business.

Seeing that everyone was getting more and more angry and incessant, Du Yongxiao had no choice but to hit the pointer, "Bah, bang, bang!"

The scene immediately fell silent. The big bosses with red faces complaining about the difficulty of doing business sat down one by one and looked at Du Yongxiao like primary school students.

Du Yongxiao said: "Now, everyone heard each other's troubles just now, so I am ready to solve your problems."

"Solve it? How to solve it?"

Everyone was surprised.

Du Yongxiao smiled slightly: "I plan to set up eighteen express companies in Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, and the New Territories. These express companies will be responsible for-"

Du Yongxiao explained the responsibilities and business of the express company in detail.

How could these people know this? They were all dumbfounded.

Especially Li Jiacheng and Lei Juekun, their jaws were about to drop in shock.

"Courier company?"

"Responsible for city-wide delivery?"

“Low price and on time delivery?”

Since we can sit here, everyone is not a fool, and the whole express delivery scene immediately comes to mind.

Du Yongxiao continued: "In order to reduce express delivery costs, taxis are not available and the cost is too high, so I choose rickshaw transportation and tricycle transportation! Or directly convert the rickshaw into a tricycle!"

Du Yongxiao directly stated the true purpose.

boom!

The scene exploded.

No matter how stupid you are, you still know what Du Yongxiao is doing.

He not only solved the whole express delivery problem, but also solved the rickshaw survival problem!

Li Jiacheng's mouth opened wide and his eyes stared at Du Yongxiao. The image of rickshaws running around the city appeared in his mind.

Lei Juekun also had a look of shock on his face, and his mind was spinning rapidly.

As Du Yongxiao said, the cost of letting taxis do these things is too high, but rickshaws and tricycles are different, the cost is low and the labor is low.

Others looked at Du Yongxiao and felt that Du Yongxiao was not a human being. What kind of brain did he have? Why could he come up with such incredible ideas?

Du Yongxiao tapped the map again: "Of course, in order to meet the democratic express delivery needs of Hong Kong, sometimes door-to-door customers are not at home. At this time, we need to notify customers in advance that they can store their purchased goods in one place. As for this place, we I will choose the most conspicuous place near the community, and the name will be 'Bird Inn'!"

"Bird Inn?"

Everyone was stunned again. They did not expect that Du Yongxiao would even think of such details of serving the people.

Li Jiacheng's eyelids twitched.

Lei Juekun covered his heart, feeling congested.

Young Master Huo applauded, "Okay, I support this express company and Bird Station! I decided to cooperate with Ah Xiao and develop together! What about you?"

Young Master Huo knows that this is a profitable business and no one can refuse it.

really--

"I agree too!"

The person who spoke turned out to be Li Zhaoji.

"Axiao's concept is very good. The main reason why I joined is to serve the people!"

With Li Zhaoji taking the lead, not to mention others, they all asked to join the express delivery company.

Especially Lin Baixin, Pang Dingyuan and others who are Du Yongxiao's friends, not to mention.

Li Jiacheng and Lei Juekun's faces were ashen, and they no longer looked as high-spirited as before.

Originally it was their home field today, but unexpectedly they were intercepted by Du Yongxiao.

In fact, they were somewhat ready to act on Du Yongxiao's unreasonable suggestions.

If a full-service express delivery company takes shape, it will definitely make a lot of money, and maybe it can even become a listed company. Then -——

Suddenly someone stood up and asked a question, interrupting Li Jiacheng's thinking.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Du, you just said that those storage points are called Bird Station, so what is the name of the express company you established?"

"Yeah, what's it called?"

Others also looked at Du Yongxiao.

Du Yongxiao picked up the pointer and tapped the map, and smiled at everyone: "Just call it - Shunfeng Express!"
