History of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 64 Oriental Paper Industry
Chaozhou Zou exhaled his cigarette and sighed, "Brother Xian, you should not talk about the young lady as a younger brother."

"However, I have also heard about what happened to you recently. It may be very important to you to catch up with Miss Chu."

"Every month, the Chaoshan gang will send two red sticks to follow the big boss 24 hours a day, and one red stick will go out with Ms. Chu during the day." He happened to be on duty this month, and he had been with Ms. Chu before, so he knew more Some: "According to what I know about Miss Chu, she has a very kind personality, but Boss Chu doesn't want her to take over the family business."

He Dingxian nodded as a matter of course: "As a native of Chaoshan, I always hope to have a boy to support my appearance."

"Yes."

Chaozhou Zou sighed, "Boss Chu was busy with business before and never got pregnant. After Ms. Chu becomes an adult, she has to give Ms. Chu something to do."

"So I handed over the rubber business in Xingzhou Commercial Bank to Ms. Chu, and asked Ms. Chu to take care of the rubber imports in Southeast Asia. Ms. Chu has always been in charge of it well, but since Boss Chu gave birth to a baby two years ago, I thought about it. Marry Miss Chu out to get married."

He Dingxian kept silent, he didn't have many pitiful emotions in his heart, he just felt that it was the fate of every wealthy lady.

Now that he has enjoyed the wealthy life of a wealthy family, it is only natural to contribute to the family.What's more, the rich young lady married into a rich family, without sincere feelings, at least have rich material, enough respect.

As long as there is no problem with the business of the natal family, the life of a wealthy family has surpassed countless people of the same generation. If this is considered sad, there will be nothing good in the world.

Of course, in the era when the status of women in the later generations has greatly increased, or the young lady who is doted on by her father, she may be able to live a lifetime of single life, but the probability of free love is still very low. At least it will not affect the family. Aberdeen is going to be in bad luck.

The big bosses see the bright wind and waves, and would rather marry a son-in-law and come back, than wait to see the daughter's young talent.

"I understand."

"So Ms. Chu has always wanted to prove herself and take over the family business. After all, her younger brother is so young, she still has a chance."

"In order not to be married out, he came up with a way to get a woman, deliberately stained his reputation, and made it difficult for him to marry." He Dingxian figured it out.

Chaozhou Zou nodded and said: "Thus, Ms. Chu only started playing with women the year before last. In fact, she doesn't have that kind of hobby, but I'm afraid that the more she plays, the more addicted she will become. Maybe she will be finished if she really gets involved with women."

"But Boss Chu couldn't take good care of her when he saw this, so he spun off the rubber business and set up a separate firm for her to manage. It just so happened that you didn't agree to the request."

"Otherwise, she will hate you in her heart."

He Dingxian twitched his lips: "If it wasn't for offending those uncles and youngsters, if a beautiful girl was thrown to me, would I not play?"

"Fall on the street!"

Chaozhou Zou also laughed: "Ms. Chu treats those singers as her younger sisters. Of course, they are not real sisters. To put it bluntly, those singers are also out to make money. Ms. Chu is not that stupid, but she really treats them as friends. She often asks out girls to talk about things. It's a relief from loneliness."

"Okay, let's go over the line, I'm going back to follow the boss first, do you have time to have dinner together on Sunday night?"

He Dingxian blinked his eyes and asked, "Why did you suddenly invite me to dinner?"

"You killed Lu Fengtang's Da Mowen last week. The club always needs a staff member to take over. Taking care of bathing and sauna is a big vacancy. The new boss asked me to talk to you."

"After all, you are also kind to him." Chaozhou Zou let out a cheap smile: "Hehehe."

"Ha ha."

He Dingxian also laughed.

Chao Yiyong internally despised Da Mowen's behavior of eating inside and out, and the leader of the club paid a bill of 27 Hong Kong dollars for this.

Although this account will make many people in Chao Yiyong unhappy with him, it doesn't mean that everyone in Chao Yiyong will give him face.

For example, Chaozhou Zou, who had a good relationship with him before, and Lu Fengtang, the new staff member, have no problem having a private meal with him.

Chao Yiyong was also calm after Liu Fu was shot. After about ten days and a half months, the relationship between the two parties will return to the beginning of the day.

To make money together.

"Row."

"See you at Donghua Restaurant on Sunday night." He Dingxian opened his mouth and agreed.

Chaozhou Zou threw away the cigarette butt in his hand: "Let's go."

"Continue to work."

the next day.

morning.

He Dingxian explained that Lard Boy took out [-] Hong Kong dollars from the company's account and sent it to Zou Huaiwen in Central as the funds for the acquisition of a second-hand paper factory.

This second-hand paper mill suffered a fire, and there were no valuable goods left. The only valuables left were three paper machines and two printing presses.

These paper machines and printing machines need to be confirmed to be usable, and then purchased at a discount. A total of [-] Hong Kong dollars is enough to purchase.

After seeing Zou Huaiwen in Central, Zhu Youzi followed Zou Huaiwen to the New Territories in person, took the money to preside over the transaction, and then asked someone to dismantle the machine with a cart and transport it to an old house in Shek Kip Mei.

Zou Huaiwen took a special day off to help get things done.

A new paper mill will be opened in the Shek Kip Mei area.

There are many wharves in Kowloon, and the shipping is more convenient than in the New Territories. Freighters can be sent to Shek Kip Mei quickly regardless of whether they go to the Victoria Harbor Wharf, Tsim Sha Tsui, or Stonecutters Island. , Stonecutters Island are parallel imports.

Because Victoria Harbor is currently the largest cargo terminal in Hong Kong, the small terminals in Tsim Sha Tsui, Stonecutters Island and other places are mostly black terminals.

In the New Territories, there are also terminals in Tseung Kwan O, Tuen Mun, Kwai Tsing and other areas. However, the roads in the New Territories are currently inconvenient, and special trucks are needed for transportation. The cost is not worth it. It will take five to ten years for the New Territories terminals to be convenient. After the Kwai Tsing container terminal is completed, it is still early.

Finally, the New Territories area opposes the establishment of paper mills, and local labor recruitment is prone to problems. On the contrary, the large number of refugees in Shek Kip Mei is the best employment environment.

In terms of business, it only pays attention to the business environment, and then considers the problems of Zhang Jingrong and the Dongguan Gang, which seems to be at a loss.

"Brother Xian, all the machines have been moved into the estate."

In the evening, the owner of Zhu You Zai Jian came to the company, served a cup of hot tea, and said excitedly: "None of the five machines was broken. At that time, the factory owner tried his best to save the machines first. Now the business can't be done, and it is cheaper for us."

"Ah."

He Dingxian drank a cup of tea and said in a deep voice, "The new factory is very important. The next step is to recruit people in the factory, about [-] people first."

"Some are responsible for printing and papermaking, and some are responsible for purchasing goods. Workers should pay close attention to it. It doesn't matter if you are a technical student. You can ask a master to train you."

"But the most important thing is to be poor enough and loyal enough! It's best to be from Chaoshan!" He didn't want to follow in the footsteps of a factory.

Zhu Youzai nodded and said, "I understand. I'll leave the job recruitment to me. In addition, Manager Zou promised to obtain the supplier qualification of "Sing Tao Daily" for the factory after the first batch of wood is produced."

"In two months, as long as the factory can get on the right track, he will resign from "Sing Tao Daily" and specialize in managing the paper factory."

Zou Huaiwen has now applied for a leave of absence from "Sing Tao Daily". If he does not work because of his family relationship, his salary will be reduced accordingly.

He began to take full responsibility for the management of the paper factory, and he just waited for the factory to make money and resigned, leaving a way out if something unexpected happened.

"There is no problem with this. As long as you do a good job, your salary will be paid before you resign." He Dingxian is very forthright.

Considering that the new factory is about to open, some new arrangements should also be made for personnel.

He murmured, "Ah Tsai, the business will do well in the future. I'm afraid there will be one factory after another. I want to work in the police force, so I don't have time to take care of the business."

"You are going to be in charge of the money bags of the brothers. Grasp the general ones and hand over the details to the various responsible persons."

Lard Boy laughed and said, "The boss wants to be our backer in the police force, and we can just leave it to the younger ones outside."

"I plan to hand over the movie store to Ah Kun, what do you think?" Zou Huaiwen was naturally in charge of the paper mill, but after Wu Shihao left, the movie store lacked a person in charge.

Lard Boy hesitated and said, "Aren't you going to give it to Ajie?"

"I want Ajie to keep an eye on Zou Huaiwen. The paper mill can't live without its own people." Ajie also made a great contribution last time, and he will be rewarded for his merits as soon as he is discharged from the hospital.

After hearing this, Lard Boy nodded and said, "That's no problem, the arrangement is very good."

"From now on, you will be directly responsible to me. The movie store has other people's shares, and the paper mill needs to register another company." The big boss will decide."

"Hmm..." He Dingxian pondered for a moment, then decided: "Let's call the sign Dongfang Paper!"

"Chinese-funded companies like to use similar names, and we also join in the fun. In the future, it will be more famous for others to call out the name of Dongfang Company."

Lard Boy replied with a smile: "No problem!"

"In addition, I sent Newspaper Hong and the boat to Southeast Asia to purchase. Remember to change the person in charge of the movie store on Shanghai Street. I think Newspaper Hong dares to break through, and he will be promising in the future and can be used to great effect."

He Dingxian said.

Cargo ships need someone to accompany the ship. Every company that needs to purchase will send a crony to handle the matter. The boss who specializes in international trade will often bring his brothers and go directly to the ship.

Of course, the risks of going to sea are huge, and the benefits are also huge. You can earn thousands of dollars by running with the boss and doing nothing.

However, if you encounter pirates and Da Tian Er, you have to fight with your life.

The owner of the ship is only responsible for shipping the goods, but he doesn't care about purchasing for you, except that he will fight together when he encounters pirates.

Zhu Youzi laughed and said, "Hehe, Did Baobao Hong take the initiative to go? I've seen that he has a clever mind and wants to make money with the boss."

Ho Ting-yin was noncommittal: "Everyone is an estate boy in Shek Kip Mei and wants to make money."

night.

When he returned home in a rickshaw, he turned around and asked, "Akun, are you interested in helping me manage the movie store business?"

Ni Kun's expression was stunned, and his expression was surprised: "Boss, I don't care about business."

"Hehe, no one is born with it. In short, Ah Hao's position is vacant, are you interested in taking it?" He Dingxian laughed.

Ni Kun was silent for a moment, and said firmly: "Boss, I still want to pull the car for you!"
