Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

If you want to say that you don't want to talk about business at all with the richest man Bao, and he is a super tycoon himself; apart from Ye Deli, you can't find anyone else in Hong Kong! Of course, there are always exceptions, and this time it is destined to be disappointing; but unlike other tycoons, Yip Deli simply wanted to ask for technical advice.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Ye Sheng, long time no see, you still look so dashing!"

When it comes to the most fun super tycoon in Hong Kong, no matter which list it is, Ye Deli is always on the list. But one thing I have to admit is that people do live a carefree life; they can truly live among thousands of flowers without a single leaf touching them. At least at this point, Bao Shoufang asked himself that he was no match. No woman will say bad things about him after breaking up. Money is only one aspect; the most important other aspects are absolutely in place.

Although Bao Zixuan didn't want to learn, he still felt a little bit envious in his heart. But with my current status, I have incurred enough romantic debts, and I really don’t want to cause trouble for myself. Besides, I have several children, so what else is there to be dissatisfied about?

Ye Deli said with a smile: "Nothing can compare with Xiao Baosheng, we live day by day; on the other hand, although you are not in Xiangjiang, major media in the world often report about Blackstone Fund and Black Cloud Group; it is really enviable."

"I came here for two things. The first is to ask for your help. You bought the Ferrari sports car and wanted to provide me with some technical support. As the boss of Heiyun Motors, the world's top engine expert; you also know that Xiangjiang and Gambling What level is the city's automobile industry at? The Japanese don't pay attention to the R\u0026D and production of super sports cars, so high-end talents are all in the Heiyun Group. Without your words, I wouldn't dare to give me advice."

"Also, I am planning to hold a racing competition in the casino the day after tomorrow. It is not very well-known. I want to invite you to participate. I have told the big story, so it shouldn't be embarrassing!"

Hearing this, Bao Zixuan immediately thought of one thing; maybe he could take Ye Deli with him. The old man is very passionate about racing; he is also a super rich man, so maybe he can really make it happen. And even if the funds are insufficient at the moment, it doesn't matter; Heiyun Bank provides loans for it. Although he will not enter the gambling industry, he is still very clear about the profits and the future prospects of the casino.

In addition to picking up girls, the old handsome guy also has another major hobby in his life: racing!

In the casino, he is even known as "Mr. Grand Prix". 1 City Grand Prix, although he ultimately failed to complete the event due to an accident during practice, it made him develop an indissoluble bond with racing. From then on, he started to compete as a driver every year in the Formula 5000 international race, the predecessor of Formula 1. He reached the 1st team, participated in the Casino Grand Prix, sponsored the North American IndyCar 500, and even participated in Formula One racing, making him a leading figure in the international racing industry.

Due to Yip's close relationship with Hong Kong and the casino, Guia Raceway in the casino has always been considered the home ground of the Yip Racing Team. And Yip Deli Casino Songshan Villa is also next to the Guia Raceway.

In addition to participating in the Casino Grand Prix, the Deli Racing Team was actually the first Chinese-owned Formula One team, and competed in 1999 and 2001 respectively. Although Yip Deli later accepted the merger plan of the Ensaiin Racing Team , and no longer competed in Formula One racing in the name of Deli Racing Team; but his contribution to Formula One racing has not stopped.

Driven by 1 pole, the Casino Formula race was officially transformed from Formula Pacific to Formula Three. The Deli team invited the still newbie Elton Senna to compete and win the championship; Senna later promoted to Formula One. The car became a racing legend. Including Xia Jianlun, who later became the Formula One racing champion, and many famous car players, they also drove for the Deli Racing Team and established the status of Casino Racing as the cradle of world-class drivers; A total of 6 championships were won in the Grand Prix.

Yip has become the oldest driver of a single-seat racing car in the world. The Casino Grand Prix Museum has a special section on display related to Yip.

In Hong Kong and the gambling city, many rich second-generation people like to drive sports cars; but there are not many people who love it as much as Ye Deli does. Coupled with the lack of industrial soil, the automobile industry is almost zero.

If you want to build a championship-winning team, supporting industries must be in place; otherwise, you will only be able to compete in low-level competitions, and it will be difficult for you to reach the level of elegance!

As for Japanese cars, the main decision is positioning.

Although the technology is mature and stable, the development direction of Japanese cars is very unified; the cars developed are all civilian models, such as Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Acura, Nissan, Infiniti, Mazda, Subaru, Mitsubishi and other car brands. The customer groups they face are ordinary people, not elites.

The vehicles produced by Japanese cars are all high-volume; annual sales are tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions. Japanese car companies apply common technologies to civilian models within limited costs. Maximizing vehicle performance is its core positioning.

In fact, Japanese cars themselves also want to develop super cars and high-end coupes; although the profits are not high, they symbolize the corporate identity. It is very beneficial to enhance the corporate brand value; however, luxury cars and coupes emphasize corporate history and vehicle culture. The car owners who buy luxury cars and coupes are people with status and status. Perhaps only car brands full of honor and culture can be worthy of the status of these elites.

Japanese cars do not have a long cultural and historical background. Toyota was founded 1 in 1 in 1 Mitsubishi was founded in 1870, but it was originally just a shipyard and a car. As a result, the genes of Japanese car companies are not very pure, and the car culture atmosphere is not strong. Simply put, Japanese car companies are not worthy of manufacturing luxury cars and supercars.

With the automotive technology and manufacturing processes currently mastered by Japanese cars, it is not difficult to create a super luxury sedan or supercar. After all, they have a solid foundation in automobile manufacturing and complete automobile supporting facilities; it is very possible to achieve the best results in a short period of time. The vehicle performance and ride quality are even better than those of Lamborghini, Ferrari, Maybach, and Rolls-Royce; but unfortunately, no car owner is willing to pay for it, which is the saddest thing.

Without a market, naturally no car companies would be willing to work hard in this area; there would be no need to reserve relevant talents. The more capable a person is, the higher the requirements for benefits and remuneration are. It takes three ordinary engineers to support such a person, but it turns out that he can only do the work of one person. The operating costs have increased significantly, and it is difficult to explain to shareholders.

It is precisely because of the acquisition of Ferrari that Heiyun Group has occupied a place in the supercar market; before, it was more of a concept and a small effort. As for high-end luxury cars, they are only recognized by customers because of Bentley. In the past, neither Dodge nor Jeep could be considered high-end luxury brands. As for Heiyun's customized cars, it's more about the material and performance advantages; the brand bonus isn't much!

There are no senior supercar engineers in Asia. Of course, this is not objective, but it’s almost the same. Even if there are, they are basically in European and American car companies; they rarely come back to work. Without a platform, no matter how great your ability is, it will be difficult to achieve anything.

The casino entertainment company has a very strong development momentum. Although the position is chairman, everyone knows that it is just a name. There are more suitable people in charge; not participating is a good thing!

In addition, I hold some shares in Bao Huodong Mining Company, and I don't mess around like others; I get a lot of dividends every year, and I don't have to worry about money at all.

When I reach my seventies, I feel powerless to do many things; racing may become my only hobby. A super tycoon must reach the top no matter what he does, otherwise he will definitely feel uncomfortable.

But across Asia, there is simply no talent available. Of course, this is not very accurate. As long as you are an engineer with some skills or ideas for high-end cars, your first choice will always be Heiyun Group.

The Deli Racing Team looks good, and the salary and benefits are not bad, but it always gives people the impression that it is a grass-roots team and it is difficult to reach the level of elegance. Another point that has to be considered is the age of the boss and his own earning capacity.

Although Ye Deli doesn't want to admit his age, he doesn't want to admit it, but people don't rely on their bones and muscles when they are old. Even if medicine is advanced, it is impossible to live forever. How long it will take, no one can guarantee.

Whether future generations will continue to operate if they truly fail to perform their duties on that day will be a big question. No one will abandon a profitable enterprise like casino entertainment; even if you don't like it, you still have to eat; it is impossible to lose your job.

As for racing, this kind of entertainment activity that only goes out but does not come in; or a business that basically cannot make any money, naturally must be carefully considered. If future generations like it, or find a rich man who likes it to take over, then everything will be fine. If there is no such person, sorry; disbanding the team will be the only option.

Everyone's golden age is only a few years. If you really waste it on Deli Racing Team and want to enter a big company, the chances are very slim. Regarding career planning, no one dares to bet; after all, the cost of failure is too great, even unbearable.

In addition, there are no automotive industry talents in Hong Kong and the gambling city itself. Although the Deli team has a few engineers from Europe and the United States, they have been out of the mainstream racing field for too long, and their thinking and technology cannot keep up.

Seeing that the gap between him and the world's top teams is getting bigger and bigger, it makes Ye Deli, who has always been conceited and wants to succeed in everything, very uncomfortable. No talent can only be tapped from other companies, but after understanding the situation; capable people will refuse.

Bao Zixuan's acquisition of Ferrari is no secret to Ye Deli, who has been in the racing field for many years.

Although the Ranieri family was very wealthy before, they did not support Ferrari very much; they even restricted Enzo Ferrari's spending to a certain extent. After Heiyun Motors took over, not only did it invest a huge amount of capital, but it also never participated in the company's operation and management. The meaning is obvious, you want to spend money; whatever!

Moreover, Bao Zuofu's attitude was very clear before. It doesn't matter if he doesn't make money; but he must ensure his performance. If there is no profit, there is no other movement; Enzo Ferrari is embarrassed.

Since he wants results, it's not easy; he has strong technical strength and his understanding of racing is unparalleled. At this moment, there are no financial restrictions. If he doesn't win the championship, old Enzo will feel embarrassed.

As a result, in the past one or two years, the championship and runner-up positions in the world Formula One races have been basically dominated by Ferrari.

I was embarrassed to disturb Bao Zixuan before, but now that I’m back, I can’t miss it. Doing something spectacular in his limited life is one of Ye Deli's few wishes!

Bao Zixuan thought for a moment and said: "Ye Sheng, if motorsport wants to continue, it must be self-sufficient. If you just rely on the boss for blood transfusions, it will not be a long-term solution."

"At the same time, it will also make the team feel uneasy, in case something unexpected happens to the boss's other businesses; the first project to be cut off will naturally be the business that is losing money every day."

"As for providing technical support, these are minor issues; but do you still have the ambition to re-enter Formula One? If you just want to play casually in the casino, then send a few engineers over; also provide high-end engines and gearboxes Performance; incorporate some new materials; win a casino event; no difficulty.”

"As for inviting me to go to the casino and watch the car race; no problem, I will definitely be there."

After hearing what Bao Zixuan said, Ye Deli fell into deep thought, although he didn't understand what he said. But he still knew very well what the other party wanted to express.

I am indeed a bit older, and I can feel that the team members have a strong sense of crisis. Doing business doesn’t make money, just relying on hobbies will definitely not last long. After so many years in business, Ye Deli certainly understands such a superficial truth.

It has always been his dream to participate in Formula One; otherwise, he would not have spent huge sums of money to enter. Judging from Bao Zixuan's expression, there is still a chance; the other party has many clever ideas, so he can consider them!

Yip Deli thought for a while and said: "If there is an opportunity to participate in a Formula One race, it would be the best. Of course, compared to racing, I may be more interested in the profit issue you just mentioned."

"If you want your career to continue, you must have your own hematopoietic ability. Even if you don't tell me, I know that age is here. Whether future generations will be willing to inherit it is impossible to say."

Live truly transparently and know what you want!

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "I'm going to the Chinese mainland in two days, and then go straight to Europe. If Ye Sheng is interested, you can go there together; maybe we can find a suitable project; and I can also recommend it to you; don't tell me You will take advantage, but you will never suffer a loss.”

Naturally, Ye Deli would not refuse to cooperate with Bao Zixuan. Even though Baohuodong Mining Company was not a founding shareholder last time, the profits it earned were not inferior to those of Casino Entertainment Company, and its reputation was even better!

You know; not everyone can catch the eye of the richest man Bao, and opportunities don’t come all the time!
