History of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 69 Going North for Business (Burst 410)

"Where are your people? Stand up and take a look first!" Chu Yunnan did not veto him, but wanted to see his strength. He Dingxian came prepared as usual, picked up the wine glass, stood up, and fell heavily in front of the sofa seat :"boom!"

The sturdy whiskey glass crackled dully.

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

When they came to Bailemen in Shili Yangchang, they had been fidgeting for a long time, and they were always paying attention to the movements of the big boss. The rich and luxurious life in Bailemen also dazzled their eyes and aroused their desire to stand out.

Following the movement, Chu Yunnan looked sideways and saw housing estates dressed in shabby clothes, with numb expressions and a reckless look, finally showing a solemn expression: "He Tanmu, twenty people are considered capital? "

He Dingxian only said: "The wealthy family has the superior resources of the wealthy family, and the housing estate also has the survival rules of the housing estate. I am different from Ms. Chu. I am a bad boy from the housing estate. I became a policeman on my father's family allowance. Estate boy!"

"Twenty died, and there are still twenty more. There are more than 2 housing estates in Shek Kip Mei. If you run out of them, how many will you use? All of them will be used for you!"

To do business going north, it is not enough to just send goods to Haojiang and Shencheng. European and American capitals are constantly blocking material routes.

On the sea road, there are groups of islands in bright or dark days, staring at the freighters traveling on Hong Kong Island. On the black market, British capital is also constantly selling extremely poor quality, counterfeit and shoddy medicines and supplies at high prices.

Ships not only need to form a fleet to go to sea together, each ship also needs to be escorted by fierce men who can carry guns and even fight on board to protect the cargo ship.

Basically, every fleet smuggling north will encounter pirates. If the cargo ship is saved, everything will be fine. Once it is robbed, the big merchant will lose the whole year's profit, and the small business will go bankrupt directly. The huge profit is extremely high risk.

The war on the peninsula has just started for one year, and there are still two years to go. If you do well, you will be able to accumulate sufficient economic capital, and secondly, you will be able to accumulate sufficient political resources.

Chu Yunnan listened to the words and pondered for a moment, then said aloud: "You stay with me, and meet me at Chaofu Restaurant in Central tomorrow evening."

"Miss Chu, I must be there on time." He Dingxian drank the wine in his glass, cupped his hands proudly, got up and left the box.

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

If Ms. Chu really cooperates with that little Tanmu, the little Tanmu will be a character in the future, but she has to remember it deeply so as not to offend her.

However, Chu Yunnan had things in her heart, and she was not in the mood for drinking, so she reluctantly praised her favorite dancer for one more time, and left Paramount with her team.

Central, Liyuan East Street, a four-storey western-style building courtyard, is the usual residence of boss Chu of Xingzhou Company.

At ten o'clock, as usual, Boss Chu was sitting in the dining room drinking qi-tonifying and soothing soup. 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.

"Are you back?" Chu Weinan was not tall, with dark skin, and a bald head, only a green wrench on his thumb, revealing a bit of nobility.

His manner of speaking was very elegant, but his voice was a little low, as if his throat had been damaged by long-term fatigue.

"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, there were children crying from time to time, Chu Weinan looked up at the wall clock on the wall, and asked calmly: "I came back two hours early today, what happened outside?"

Knowing that she couldn't hide it from her father's eyes and ears, Chu Yunnan opened the chair and sat down at the dining table, took a sip of the warm water offered by the servant: "I talked about a shipping business with my friend, and I plan to send someone to ship the goods to the north."

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

"Can the partner be trusted?"

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

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

Chu Weinan was noncommittal: "You have so many friends supporting you, and you don't need me alone. I separated Xinghui's shop and let you manage it. It's the way to support you. You don't need to ask me what you want to do. You are the star." The boss of Hui Company, but there is so much shortage in the north, which one do you plan to ship?"

Chu Yunnan held the water glass and said, "First do the fine work, then do more, and transport the rubber at the beginning, and talk about the rest later."

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

"I started out by making rubber. If you plan to do it, you have to do it well. Don't embarrass me."

Chu Yunnan said in a deep voice, "Old Dou, why don't I remember you talking so well?"

"Haha." Chu Weinan's usually stern face actually burst into laughter: "The businessman is most afraid of his sons and daughters not being able to live up to expectations. He has worked hard all his life in vain. If you want to come out, how can I not support you?"

"At the beginning, I didn't let you take over the Xingzhou Company. The reason is very simple. You are a girl who will marry off sooner or later. How can you hand over the family business to someone else!"

"So, the Xingzhou Company must be inherited by Younan, and the Xinghui Company will be dismantled and given to you. Because you are my daughter, it will be used as a dowry for you. If you want to earn a dowry and status for yourself, I will only be happy of."

This era is like a girl like Chu Yunnan who wants to fight against life, and does not deny her destiny to marry.

Chu Weinan then said: "Whether you can make the Xinghui Chamber of Commerce big or use it as a money bag is up to you, but it is not safe for five ships to go north, so they can be anchored under Rentai Shipping. Others ship together. There are at least dozens of companies in Hong Kong that do northbound shipping. There is no shortage of your family. What's more, Rentai Shipping has a British background. Less money."

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

In the Hong Kong Island movie, the high-ranking police officials were all caught by the marine police for corruption and bribery!

Hong Kong Island's role as the trade window for the north has already become prominent at this time. Not only the Chinese businessmen are brave enough to seize the opportunity, but the ghosts will also not let go of making big money!
There are more ghosts smuggled in Hong Kong Island than Chinese businessmen, and they often find a Chinese businessman as a front, specializing in transporting garbage to the north to cheat money. The cheated funds are sent to foreign firms behind the scenes. There are few firms that are really willing to work for the Chinese. To "gold in shit".

Otherwise, "Airship Tai" will not have hand-picked executives in the future, the eminence of Glory I, and firms willing to truly serve the Chinese will rise one after another in the future.

Of course, like "Airship Tai", a self-organized fleet, independent operation, a top talent who brought a purchase order from the north, and arranged all the top talents from beginning to end, a red heart is too strong, and the ghosts will take action to suppress it. It's no surprise that it's been decades.

No one knows the bitterness of being inferior to others for decades, and in exchange for a lifetime of fame, it can be said that a hero is justified.

The Chu family grew up in the mainland. It is impossible to cheat black-hearted money like a ghost. It is what should be earned, and what cannot be done is not done.

"Treat people with sincerity, 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 signboard, but you can be tactful in doing things. Taking advantage of the characteristics of ghosts who have always turned a blind eye to British companies, is the method that Chinese businessmen are best at.

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

"That's it."

Chu Weinan stood up and planned to leave. He acted neatly, but remembering his daughter's first formal voyage, he couldn't help turning around and asking, "By the way, do you know who He Dingxian is?"

Chu Yunnan said like a few treasures: "A villager who dares to kill Liu Fu is cruel enough, fierce enough, and has a head."

Chu Weinan nodded and said: "Just know it, you can make friends with all kinds of teachings, the key is to know it well, but fortunately they join the chamber of commerce, they are their own people, and they dare not do things like cheating and abducting."

"It must be true that he wants to cooperate with you to do business, but what he wants is not just to share the profits of the sea, but to use your power to start a business. Do you want to use his power to do whatever you want? 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, and influence, 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: "Old Dou, go to bed early, Chen Shijiu is your man, I want Hua Yaoxian to be mine."

"Ah."

Chu Weinan only needs to ensure that his daughter will not be cheated, and the rest are trivial matters.

In the evening, He Dingxian returned to the Kowloon area early and came 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. It’s good to relax when he has time .

The store manager also specially showed the boss a relatively new movie "A Generation of Enchantress", which was shot by the Great Wall Studio and is a film at the end of the "Old Great Wall".

At present, "Yuan Yangan" has taken over the power of Great Wall Pictures, reorganized the "Old Great Wall" into "New Great Wall", brought together a large number of elite directors and well-known actors, determined to break away from the high-profile ideology, and develop the works in the direction of social realism, making " "New Great Wall" once became the most well-known Mandarin film studio and became the mainstay of Mandarin films on 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 boss.

As soon as I got the gun, I ran to discuss business with the daughter of the chairman of the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce. If you hang out with such a big guy, you have a better chance of hitting the street than getting out.
