The Industrial Giant Reborn

Chapter 127 Zeng Zixing's Trip to the Mainland
"That is to say, some people have released news these days that Red Bull is selling very well in the United States, and there are hundreds of millions of deposits in the account. Did someone do it on purpose?" A few days later, Zhou Jiayang brought a new news, Chen Zhiwen was a little surprised.

"Yes, stock exchanges and many funds are spreading the news, and then Hutchison stocks started to rise sharply again. Many investors also believed this statement, and then went to snap up Hutchison stocks, and then less than a day later, Hutchison stocks After buying high, there was another big smash, and the stock price plummeted again. A few days ago, a person jumped off the building, and it was because of this reason." Zhou Jiayang said.

"It's ruthless enough. It is estimated that some company followed suit to speculate on Hutchison's stock before, but after we came forward to buy it, we were caught. Then we came up with this trick to let countless small investors take over their stocks at a high price." Chen Zhiwen thought for a while and said.

"I think so too. Now that people have cashed out and ran away, it's too late to find out who is behind the scenes." Zhou Jiayang said with some regret.

"So what if you find out? They didn't break the law, so you can still sue them? You've come to the stock market to play, and it's not a long-term investment. You also use leverage. You can only say that you choose the path, and it's fate to be cheated. "Chen Zhiwen said lightly.

"That's right, life and death are fate." Zhou Jiayang nodded and said.

Chen Zhiwen said: "Let's stop here, don't waste time and energy, and prepare for the shareholders' meeting."

"Okay." Zhou Jiayang agreed.

In a blink of an eye, a few days have passed, and the wave of resignations of British ghosts predicted by Chen Zhiwen did not appear, only a few sporadic ones chose to resign, and Richard has been doing ideological work for many people. Stabilizing the management team is the first test for one of the four major foreign firms in Hong Kong. If you fail to do this well, you will basically be the second Qi Dezun.

The media in Hong Kong also temporarily reduced their pursuit of Chen Zhiwen and others. After all, Chen Zhiwen will definitely appear at the next shareholder meeting, which made him a little more relaxed these days.

On July 7, Chen Zhiwen welcomed a friend whom he had not seen for a long time.

"Zeng Sheng, long time no see." In Chen Zhiwen's office in Hutchison Building, Chen Zhiwen said very happily to the visitor.

"Haha, Chen Sheng, long time no see. I never thought that when we meet again, you will already be the boss of one of the largest foreign firms in Hong Kong." The visitor said with a smile.

"It's just the largest foreign firm with a lot of debt, Zeng Sheng, sit down." Chen Zhiwen smiled, and took Zeng Zixing to the sofa next to the floor-to-ceiling windows. From here, you can see the entire Victoria Harbor, half of Hong Kong Island, and Kowloon across the harbor. On the peninsula, people with good eyes can also see seabirds flying in the sky.

"For the past half a month, I have been in the mainland, but just after I came back, I heard what you did in Hong Kong, Mr. Chen. It really boosted the ambition of us Chinese. It's so fucking cool to see the whole of Hong Kong from here." Zeng Azusa laughed.

"Yeah, looking down from the Central Building, it's really prone to the common people!" Chen Zhiwen nodded and said.

Not to mention Central, it is the commercial buildings and shopping malls in the entire Hong Kong Island. The owners are basically British capital, but countless small Chinese bosses do business or work in these shopping malls or office buildings. The profits go back to the owners.

Owning a building in Central is the dream of countless Chinese, including Chinese elites such as Li Ka-shing and Lee Shau-kee, who also think about this obsession day and night. It was not until the rise of Chinese capital in the 80s that this dream came true.

"Chen Sheng, you bought Hutchison for the real estate of Hutchison?" Zeng Zixing asked again.

"Is it one of the main reasons? Why do you ask that?" Chen Zhiwen asked rhetorically.

"A few of my friends used to be in the industry, but now they are all planning to start a real estate business. Among all the people I know, you, Chen Sheng, are the strongest. If even you transform, then I will be the same. "Zeng Zixing said with a smile.

"There is no conflict, the two can be done together." Chen Zhiwen said.

Zeng Zixing shook his head and said, "Chen Sheng, not everyone has your financial resources. To be honest, I am very surprised about the orders of Xinghe Trading. Generally, trading companies have to invest a lot of money to get so many orders." Manpower and material resources, I don’t even know when it will take this time, let alone start other businesses.”

"That's right." Chen Zhiwen nodded, but he didn't explain too much. In fact, there is a more important factor because he knows the future, so he can close his eyes and desperately raise the lever. How dare other people, even the most discerning ones? Li Jiacheng also has to consider the risk issue.

The two returned to the sofa through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Chen Zhiwen asked, "It's July now, the Canton Fair should have ended, right? Why did Zeng Sheng go to the mainland?"

"Chen Sheng, I was entrusted by you to go to the Canton Fair to look for products suitable for Xinghe Trade. I found a few, but I always felt that they were not perfect, so I asked for some contact information, and recently contacted them again." Zeng Zixing said.

"Factory? Wasn't it forbidden to go there before?" Chen Zhiwen asked.

"It's still not allowed to enter, but now I can stay in a nearby guest house, and then take out samples to discuss the possibility of cooperation." Zeng Zixing said with a smile: "I feel that the establishment of diplomatic relations with Europe and the United States since 72 has become more and more important in this regard. It's getting looser."

"This is also a good thing." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said. In fact, the activity of the Canton Fair can be said to be the initial preparation for the re-opening, or it can be said to be a pilot. In the past few years, the transaction scale of the Canton Fair has grown very fast.

Of course, another possible reason is the lack of foreign exchange. Before the 70s, the country was mainly self-reliant, and occasionally it needed to import things that were not available. However, when China and the United States established diplomatic relations in 72, the mainland budgeted 43 billion US dollars for the development of livelihood industries and military industries. Procure large-scale production lines of steel, petroleum, chemical, chemical fiber, chemical fertilizer, power generation equipment, natural gas equipment, etc. from Western countries.

The 70 billion US dollars in the early 43s was an astronomical figure, which led to a rapid increase in domestic demand for foreign exchange.

"What can we cooperate with?" Chen Zhiwen asked.

"There is a shortage of chemical fibers in China, and many clothes are made of cotton. The cost is too high and there is no competition, so I plan to choose pure cotton products, but when I went to the factory to check, the quilts and cotton clothes are too heavy, and the style is too large. Old, later I could only let them produce cotton socks, but they produced them, but they were not flexible." Zeng Zixing said helplessly.

"Should there be some chemical fibers in the cotton socks?" Chen Zhiwen asked.

"Yes, in order to maintain elasticity, a certain amount of chemical fiber is needed. There are also chemical fiber factories in China, but the output is too small to be used in socks." Zeng Zixing said.

"This won't work." Chen Zhiwen nodded and said that the mainland is investing huge sums of money in the introduction of chemical fiber equipment, but it will take a few years to wait for mass production. Before that, clothes are luxury goods in many parts of the country, especially those that can Clothes to keep out the cold, after all, relying solely on the output of cotton, it is impossible to satisfy so many people, let alone export it.

"However, before I left, a small cadre from the Canton Fair asked me something. I thought there was hope. He wanted to ask if we want domestic wine?" Zeng Zixing said with a smile.
