The world of film and television starts from the flow of money

After breakfast, the two chatted for a while, and then Xiao Zhao sent the clothes over.

When Zhao Jingyu changed her clothes and walked out of the room, Yi Huawei suddenly became confused:

Her freshly blow-dried hair hangs casually on her shoulders, and her moisturized pretty face is lightly powdered, making it white and rosy. She only wore a white pleated shirt outside. Through the loose shirt, she could vaguely see the black bra underneath. A pair of light blue jeans hugged her hips tightly. The fabric of the jeans fit tightly, connecting her waist and Her buttocks are fully displayed, with graceful lines. She wears a pair of white sneakers, which makes her look very youthful and beautiful.

Sensing Yi Huawei's stunning gaze, Zhao Jingyu's eyes flashed and she smiled sweetly: "Let's go, we agreed today that you will accompany me."

"Well, you can go wherever you want today. ...It's cold outside," Yi Huawei put the windbreaker on the hanger on Zhao Jingyu and nodded with satisfaction: "This is perfect."

It's so cold, the lowest temperature today is 16 degrees.

Zhao Jingyu glanced at Yi Huawei but did not expose him. She put on her blue windbreaker with a smile, took Yi Huawei's arm and walked downstairs.

The two of them were walking on the streets of Causeway Bay. Zhao Jingyu enthusiastically introduced the customs and customs here to Yi Huawei, and more importantly, introduced the sales of luxury goods.

Causeway Bay, west of the north shore of the center of Hong Kong Island, is one of the most prosperous areas in Hong Kong. Hong Kong's major commercial and entertainment venues are concentrated here.

Many people compare Causeway Bay to Shinjuku, Japan, because it is a famous shopping, entertainment and food center in Hong Kong, and is also a shopping hotspot for white-collar beauties.

Causeway Bay is home to all the world's most well-known brands. Although it is slightly more expensive than the place of origin, it is much cheaper than in the mainland. Major businesses in Hong Kong often offer discounts. Since cosmetics are tax-free, some well-known brands in Hong Kong are even cheaper than those in the place of origin. Cheaper. Buying fur here is very cost-effective. The price of top-quality fur here is only 50% of that in the UK and 75% of that in Japan... Moreover, due to the warm climate in Hong Kong, leather clothes are sold at half price after the season, and the quality is very good, so most of the people who come here to buy fur are from the mainland. tourists.

"Where are we going now?"

The two wandered aimlessly on the street. After walking two streets, Yi Huawei stopped and turned to look at Zhao Jingyu.

"Let's go to Sogo Department Store," Zhao Jingyu took Yi Huawei's hand: "There is an anniversary event this month. Shall we go there for a stroll?"

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

It's good to have a destination, Yi Huawei smiled, and the two walked hand in hand towards Sogo Department Store.

The most suitable reference point in Causeway Bay is Sogo Department Store. Sogo Department Store is one of the most famous shopping malls in Hong Kong and the representative and symbol of Japanese department stores in Hong Kong. From the basement to the top floor, the entire SOGO Department Store has 13 floors for shopping, with all kinds of styles available. Each floor has a specific theme, and retail space has expanded to square feet. The road where the tram runs in front of Sogo Department Store is the main road. Hennessy Road is on the side near Wan Chai, and Yee Wo Street is on the side near North Point. With this road as the boundary, the new street and the old street truly form a contrast.

It gives people the feeling that it is an international city like Wall Street or Marunouchi in Tokyo. When walking in the Central area, it is inappropriate to wear complete casual clothes, and it is also difficult to walk in complete urban clothes. Here you can see the scene where one of the few modern metropolises in the world is only a few meters away from the chaotic civilian streets.

"Are there too many people?"

The two arrived at the main entrance of Sogo Department Store. Yi Huawei was a little stunned when he saw the 'grand occasion' here, and stopped on the side of the road to look away.

If shopping paradise has a specific scene, then the discount season of Sogo Department Store in Hong Kong is the most concentrated presentation.

The huge crowds and the huge crowds are not enough for the grand occasion here. Whenever Sogo Department Store holds its iconic "Thank you Week" anniversary event, the flow of people waving promotional posters and pushing suitcases in the Sogo store to buy cosmetics sets can't even be reversed. The bills waiting to be settled in front of the cashier can be piled up. Even the high temperature in Hong Kong can't push back the spreading fanaticism.

This can be considered the last carnival, right? If this place develops like the main world, it may be the last "Carnival Week".

"You're already here~ Let's go~"

Not only did Zhao Jingyu not feel timid when she saw the crowds of people, but she became more and more excited. She threw the food bag in her hand into the trash can, dragged Yi Huawei and squeezed in.

Yi Huawei held Zhao Jingyu's hand tightly, preventing the two from being separated.

"Go in and take a look? The good news won't go to outsiders~,"

When the two of them arrived on the third floor, Zhao Jingyu saw a Misia store and immediately became interested.

This branch sells a wide variety of Misia fashions, including very new women's high heels and high-end silk scarves. It covers a large area, has many types of exhibitions, and has a variety of choices, attracting all kinds of people to come and buy, and there is a long queue at the door.

Yi Huawei was a little depressed. How long will the queue last?

She couldn't help but hold Zhao Jingyu's hand:

"There are too many people today. If you want to buy something, why don't you go to Tsim Sha Tsui in a few days?"

"It's fun when there are many people." Zhao Jingyu blinked with big eyes, looking at Yi Huawei coquettishly and said: "Just wait for a while, it will be soon."

"Hi~,"

Looking at the long queue, Yi Huawei felt a bit toothache.

I don’t know how patient those people are. After an hour, not a single person left early.

After finally waiting in line for Yi Huawei and the two of them, a female clerk came up to them with a smile. After bowing at 90 degrees, she said respectfully: "Hello, welcome to Misia,"

After standing up, he asked softly: "Hello! Are you members? There is an event in the store today. In addition to normal discounts, new registered members will also receive a 500-free gift."

"I'm a member."

Zhao Jingyu smiled reservedly: "Take us to the watch area first."

"Go ahead, I'll wait for you there."

Yi Huawei waved his hand and pointed towards the rest area.

Zhao Jingyu nodded: "Okay, you go and sit there for a while, I'll buy something for you."

The salesperson who received Zhao Jingyu immediately waved to the female customer service staff in the rest area. The female customer service staff came over and smiled at Yi Huawei: "Hello, please follow me."

"What would you like to drink?"

"green tea."

"Okay, wait a minute."

After leading Yi Huawei to the rest area, the female customer service turned and walked towards the tea room.

Yi Huawei sat down on the last chair in the rest area and watched Yi Huawei rubbing his calves. Several men next to him immediately cast sympathetic glances, looked at each other, and laughed understandingly.

After a while, the female customer service person brought a cup of green tea on a plate.

After taking a sip of green tea, his dry mouth was relieved. Yi Huawei nodded and began to look at the saleswomen in the store.

It can be seen that the female sales here are well trained and their service attitude is quite enthusiastic. Even when the store is overcrowded, they are not impatient at all and keep a warm smile on their faces.

Yi Huawei waved, and the female customer service member on the side came over immediately: "Hello, sir, may I help you?"

Yi Huawei smiled: "Nothing, do you have time now?"

"Of course," the female customer service said with a smile.

Yi Huawei smiled and said, "Your store's business is pretty good. How is your usual business?"

"This month is an event period, so the customer flow is a bit larger than before," the female customer service member was slightly startled, then smiled: "Normally, although there are not so many people, our Misia is the leading luxury brand in the country. Each of our bags is hand-sewn by craftsmen one by one, and the raw materials of our clothes come from Suzhou..."

Listening to the female customer service expertly introducing the products in the store, Yi Huawei nodded with satisfaction.

About an hour later, Zhao Jingyu finished paying and came over: "I asked them to deliver the things for me later. I bought you a watch. Take a look. Does it fit?"

With that said, he opened the watch box in his hand, took out the watch inside, and handed it to Yi Huawei.

"Bought for me?"

Yi Huawei smiled and took a look at the watch and couldn't put it down.

The color of this watch is composed of blue and black. There is a white stainless steel shell around the dial, which makes the watch more bright in addition to the calmness of blue and black. When paired with the black dial, the low-key luxury bursts out instantly.

"Not bad, it looks okay." Yi Huawei tried it on his right hand, nodded and smiled.     “As long as you like it.”

Zhao Jingyu took Yi Huawei's hand, looked at it for a while, looked up and said with a smile: "Let's go, it's getting late. What do you want to eat for lunch? I'll make it for you."

"It's too troublesome," Yi Huawei said, "I heard that the Dongyuan Restaurant nearby is good. Have you tried it?"

"Have eaten, the Cantonese food there is pretty good," Zhao Jingyu nodded: "Then let's go to Dongyuan."

...............

After having lunch and sending Zhao Jingyu back, Yi Huawei came to the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China on Hennessy Road.

As soon as he entered the bank, he was greeted by a young woman in professional attire, showing eight white teeth:

"Hello, sir. What business do you need to handle?"

"I have an appointment with Manager Qian."

The female customer service member glanced at Yi Huawei in surprise, and the smile on her face became even more enthusiastic: "Okay, sir, please follow me."

Afterwards, Yi Huawei was led into a reception room and given a cup of coffee.

After a while, a tall and thin middle-aged man opened the door and walked in. With a bright smile on his face, he introduced himself: "Hello! I am Qian Jiahao, the account manager of the Financial Department of ICBC. Excuse me, are you Is it Mr. Yi?"

"Hello, Manager Qian, my name is Yi Huawei."

Yi Huawei smiled and nodded.

After shaking hands with Yi Huawei warmly, Qian Jiahao said with a smile: "Nice to meet you. What kind of business do you want to handle this time?"

Yi Huawei smiled and said: "Manager Qian, I want to see how the stock market is doing first, focusing on clothing companies."

Qian Jiahao was stunned for a moment, looked at Yi Huawei hesitantly and said, "Okay, but... Mr. Yi, please forgive me, many clothing companies have closed down now, so investing in clothing may not be a wise direction."

As a seven-star customer of the bank, Qian Jiahao will naturally not have any thoughts of cheating. Instead, he will do his best to help customers and let them see his value.

"Manager Qian, I have my plan." Yi Huawei smiled, obviously having no intention of explaining to Qian Jiahao.

Following Qian Jiahao into a trading room, Yi Huawei looked at the stocks of more than two dozen clothing companies that Qian Jiahao had called up on the computer, and asked, "Can I see the information about Dongxuelong Clothing Company?"

"Okay, please wait a moment. I'll go look for it in the data room." Qian Jiahao was a little confused, but he still complied with Yi Huawei's request.

After a while, Qian Jiahao came back with a book of information, handed it to Yi Huawei with both hands, and said: "This is the basic information of Dongxuelong Clothing Company. It may not be too complete."

"It's okay, let me take a look." Yi Huawei smiled, took the information, looked through it for a while, and nodded. This information was much more detailed than the information Fu Chuansheng gave, but it was normal. After all, Fu Chuansheng couldn't get it. these internal information.

The most glorious time of Dongxuelong was when it was launched in 1993. At that time, Dongxuelong Clothing's products were welcomed by middle- and lower-class citizens, accounting for one-third of the market.

Later, the product design began to fail, and Dongxuelong Clothing began to decline, until now it is struggling to support itself. Affected by the general environment, Hong Kong's largest clothing retail group in the past has lost its glory. In recent years, its decline has intensified. Relying on store closures and discounts can no longer save the decline in performance. Several consecutive years of losses have plunged it into a marginalized operation. In trouble.

Since 2015, Dongxuelong’s stock price has been fluctuating and declining, and its market value has shrunk by more than 60% in the past five years.

As the economic environment becomes more volatile, coupled with the fierce impact of ZART, H&S and other fast fashion brands and e-commerce, Dongxuelong's performance has gradually declined since 2014, its stock price has continued to fall, and its market value has shrunk by more than half.

Profits have continued to decline from 2014 to the present, and even suffered losses in 2018.

2014年-2017年冬雪龙年度利润分别收入为1.33亿港元、1.09亿港元、1250万港元、488.9万港元；

In 2018, Dongxuelong's annual performance turned from profit to loss, with net profit plummeting by more than 600% and a loss of HK$2900 million. In 2019, losses hit a new high of HK$1.39 million.

Of course, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Dongxuelong has a total of 30 direct-operated stores and 263 export franchise stores in 789 countries and regions around the world, which is somewhat valuable.

"Manager Qian, can you help me check how many Dongxuelong Clothing stocks are on the market?"

After reading the information in his hand, Yi Huawei spoke.

"Please wait…,"

Qian Jiahao responded and began to operate on the computer. After a while, he raised his head and said:

"Yisheng, there are nearly 0.15 million shares for sale on the stock market, and the prices are below yuan."

Yi Huawei thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Manager Qian, how many stocks can you acquire without disturbing the market? How long will it take?"

Qian Jiahao looked at Yi Huawei blankly, feeling a little unbelievable. Now is the economic downturn, and there are still people who want to buy shares of clothing companies?

But he was stunned for a while and then quickly came back to his senses: "Sorry, Yi Sheng, I was distracted. If the market is not alarmed, I can buy about 60 million shares and it can be completed in an hour."

"Can you buy 0.16 million shares at a price of yuan?" Yi Huawei smiled and said calmly.

"I'll give it a try. ...Does Yi always want to acquire Dongxuelong Clothing Company?" Qian Jiahao looked at Yi Huawei and asked.

Yi Huawei's information bank is available, so I have this question.

"Yes, is there any problem?" Yi Huawei said with some displeasure.

Qian Jiahao smiled awkwardly and said: "No, in fact, our Industrial and Commercial Bank of China can provide acquisition services, so that the acquisition case can be guaranteed. Moreover, direct acquisition is much cheaper than buying on the stock market. Moreover, I heard It is said that Dong Xuelong has long been planning to take action, but he has not found a suitable buyer. According to my estimate, it can be acquired for no more than 60 million at most."

"Oh?" Yi Huawei frowned slightly, then smiled: "That's okay, then just buy it directly. I'll entrust you with the full commission and give you the highest commission. However, I still have something to ask Manager Qian. .”

As for the so-called specialization in the art industry, Yi Huawei did not expect that he would follow the good path and listened to Qian Jiahao's opinions.

Qian Jiahao was overjoyed when he heard this and said hurriedly: "Mr. Yi, please tell me. I will tell you everything I know."

Yi Huawei looked directly at Qian Jiahao: "Can I believe you?"

Qian Jiahao glanced at Yi Huawei in surprise, then smiled and said: "Of course, Mr. Yi, please trust my professional ethics. It is our obligation to keep customers confidential."

Yi Huawei smiled: "I don't want to worry about anything. I want to entrust you to help me purchase the shares of Liang's Real Estate."

"Liang's Real Estate?"

Qian Jiahao looked at Yi Huawei in surprise, then thought of something, looked down at Dong Xuelong's information in his hand, suddenly realized, nodded and said:

"no problem!"

...............

Tower A, Garden Commercial Building Plaza, 22nd floor.

On this floor dedicated to Misia's Hong Kong headquarters office, it was particularly quiet today, and the floor was polished to a bright shine. The flowers and plants that are usually a little wilted along the aisles and in the lounge now look bright after being pruned.

A group of employees have received notification from their leaders since yesterday that a higher-up boss will come to inspect tomorrow. This is the first time that the big boss has come to inspect the work. In order to leave a good impression on the big boss, I spent the whole afternoon yesterday to get the hygiene right.

CEO's office.

Seeing that it was almost five o'clock and there was still no news from Yi Huawei, Liu Mengyun couldn't hold back the boredom in her heart and picked up her mobile phone to make a call to Yi Huawei.

After hanging up the phone, Liu Mengyun didn't look very good. He bit his lip, packed up his desk, got up and walked out of the office.

"I will get off work as usual today and do some hygiene tomorrow morning."

Seeing the beautiful CEO with a dark face, she walked out of the company after saying a few words, and the employees in the office area looked at each other in confusion.
