Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 590 No shortage of research and development funds (two in one)

The day after Christmas, big companies like Hutchison Whampoa and Hongkong Electric Group have not officially started to work, but the low-level employees have already started to work on this day, but they will be counted as overtime pay on this day.

Because today is still a holiday, Lin Baicheng doesn't have to go to various companies this day.

Lin Baicheng who woke up in the morning couldn't help smiling knowingly when he saw the two girls beside him.Last night was a chance for him to drink a few more drinks with Momoe Yamaguchi and Seiko Matsuda in the name of Christmas, and their resistance was not very strong, so Lin Baicheng was satisfied.

Fortunately, Lin Baicheng is young and strong now, with plenty of physical strength, so he can withstand it.

Momoe Yamaguchi and Seiko Matsuda couldn't stay in Xiangjiang for too long, especially Momoe Yamaguchi, so Lin Baicheng decided to stay with them all day today.

After getting up, Lin Baicheng didn't wake up the two women. He went to take a bath, and then went outside the villa to exercise and exercise.

"Boss Lin, I've sent someone to bring breakfast over."

When Lin Baicheng finished his run, Chen Huixiang handed Lin Baicheng a towel.

Chen Huixiang was originally Lin Baicheng's secretary in Hutchison Whampoa. Later, Qin Lan was promoted from Lin Baicheng's personal secretary to Xiangjiang's secretary general, so Chen Huixiang finally filled the vacant seat.

The secretary sent by Lin Baicheng to Hutchison Whampoa is of course not bad in terms of status. After all, Hutchison Whampoa is a large group with a market value of tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars, but compared with Lin Baicheng's personal secretary, it is much worse.Although there is no difference in job description, the degree of intimacy with the boss is different, and the status of a private secretary is a bit higher.

Lin Baicheng took the towel and wiped his sweat: "Have Keiko and Shengzi's breakfast been prepared?"

"It's all ready, it's what the two ladies are used to eating."

Chen Huixiang responded, because Lin Baicheng and other women are not husband and wife, so the people below will not address them as 'madam', but as 'ma'am'.

"Ok!"

Lin Baicheng went to the upstairs of the villa to wake up Momoe Yamaguchi and Seiko Matsuda, and asked them to get up and have breakfast.

On this day, Lin Baicheng stayed with Momoe Yamaguchi and Seiko Matsuda all the time, and went back at dinner time. He spent the night with the two girls.

The next day was already Thursday, all companies were going to work normally, and Lin Baicheng was about to start working.Yamaguchi Momoe and Matsuda Seiko are going back to Tokyo this morning, and Lin Baicheng is not required to see them off. Chen Huixiang will take them to the plane.

It's not that Lin Baicheng doesn't want to send them back to Tokyo by private jet, but that Lin Qin, Deng Lijun, and Lin Qingxia are going back to the United States. The private jet will take the three of them, and there is no way to send Momoe Yamaguchi and Seiko Matsuda.

Lin Baicheng did not go to Hong Kong Electric Group today, but went to Hutchison Whampoa.The HK Electric Group's shareholder meeting will be held tomorrow Friday, so he will go over tomorrow to deal with the HK Electric Group's affairs.

In Hutchison Whampoa, Lin Baicheng first read some reports sent by Qin Lan.

In the preceding Christmas Eve and a few days before Christmas, Xinghe Game Company's arcade machines, Xingyue Video Game Company's console cassettes, Jupiter Toys Company's Rubik's Cube and yo-yo toys, and the box office of "Home Alone" are related to these performance reports.

The arcade machines of Xinghe Game Company are as popular as ever, and the products are sold to agents before Christmas. What needs to be paid attention to is the popularity of arcade machines in game halls during the Christmas period, and whether players like to play the company’s arcade machines. game.

The arcade machines of Xinghe Game Company, after the agent buys them, have a certain amount of return rate. If the game is not popular in the market, the agent can unconditionally return 30% of the goods, and Xinghe Game Company will bear the shipping fee.

Such terms are definitely unfavorable to Xinghe Game Company, but there is no way, without such terms, agents must not dare to buy in large quantities, which is not conducive to sales.Therefore, for the sake of sales, the guarantee should be given to the agent.

Xingyue Electronic Game Company's consoles and cassettes are super popular in the past few days during Christmas. With the promotion of a large amount of funds, the sales volume has exploded. The sales volume in these few days is almost equivalent to [-]% of all previous sales.

It can be seen that Xingyue Electronic Game Company's consoles and cassettes have been fully accepted by the market, more and more people have noticed this product, more and more children are buying this product, and the prospect is almost visible .

The important thing is that the price of the Xingyue console at Christmas is 199 US dollars, and the original price of 229 US dollars is discounted, and the discounted price is 199 US dollars.As long as the sales volume of the product is not bad, after a period of time, you can consider continuing to increase the price.

If the price of the Xingyue console can be raised to 229 US dollars, then Xingyue Electronic Game Company will not lose much on the console, but the cassette will bring huge profits to the company, and the company will definitely make a lot of money. Earn extra money.

In the United States, Christmas is equivalent to the Spring Festival in Huaguo, so every family will purchase a large number of supplies, and all kinds of toys sold in Starlight Company are also very popular.Several toys sold by Jupiter Toys Company in Starlight Company are also very popular, bringing a lot of profits to the company.

The movie "Home Alone" started to be released a few days before Christmas. Morningstar Pictures did not do as well as Hollywood in terms of publicity and distribution. Fortunately, the company invested a lot of money in publicity and distribution. So I got a lot of opening screens.

What's more, the film's release time is a few days before Christmas, which is not far from Christmas, so the schedule is not bad.

The box office of "Home Alone" in its first week is not bad, exceeding 2000 million US dollars. Even if the share of the theaters is deducted, it is enough for the producer to recover the cost.However, although the film's box office performance is not bad, it is not amazing. If there is no accident, according to the normal box office trend, the box office performance of the film is about 5000 million US dollars when it is released.

However, the box office performance of the film suddenly exploded on Christmas Eve. A large number of children begged their parents to take them to watch this movie. When children go to the movies, their parents usually accompany them, so one child is equivalent to two adult tickets and a child ticket.

On Christmas Eve alone, "Home Alone" took in more than $800 million at the box office.

On the second day, Morningstar Pictures contacted the theater chain to increase the number of screens, and the theater chain agreed without thinking about it, increasing the number of screens by 20%. On Christmas Day, the film received nearly 1300 million US dollars box office.

And just yesterday, the theaters once again increased the number of screens for "Home Alone", reporting a box office of 1200 million US dollars.

In three days, "Home Alone" reported a box office of 3300 million U.S. dollars, plus the previous accumulated box office of 2000 million U.S. dollars, and now the film has reported a box office of 5300 million U.S. dollars.

This movie can be said to be a success now, and what needs to be done now is to strengthen the publicity, so that the movie can have a huge box office figure after it is released.

Due to time constraints, Shirley Lansing decided to ask Morningstar Films to spend a sum of money to strengthen the publicity. The crew took the starring team to run publicity in the United States. This matter was also mentioned in the report, and of course Lin Baicheng would not blame Xue Lee Lansing made her own way.

These days of Christmas, the performance of all companies is very good, and Lin Baicheng is very satisfied with this.Although due to time constraints, there is no specific sales performance for these days of Christmas, but a rough figure is enough.

The specific achievements will be reflected in the monthly and annual reports, and it is likely that the people below will report to him in a few days.

However, today Lin Baicheng is more concerned about the trend of the gold futures and oil futures markets. Today is the first trading day after the long holiday, and the market will definitely react to the Hongsu transportation of officers and soldiers and weapons and equipment.

Today, the funds of the small circle raised by Lin Baicheng will also enter the market to do long gold futures today. They have arranged for people to divide into two teams and go to London and New York respectively.

Because of the time difference, Xiangjiang is about 8 hours faster than London and about 12 hours faster than New York.That is to say, 5 p.m. Hong Kong time is 9 a.m. in London, and the capital market officially starts trading; while in New York, it is 9 p.m. Hong Kong time, and New York is 9 a.m. point, then you can trade.

The reason why the operation team was divided into two teams this time is to allow some of the funds to enter the market earlier.

The time dragged on until five o'clock in the afternoon.

London time came to nine o'clock in the morning, and the capital market began to trade.

The price of gold immediately rose sharply at the beginning of the market opening, and it rose by as much as 3% in just a few minutes. A large amount of funds continued to enter the market to buy more, and there were basically no sell orders.

When the price of gold rose by more than 4%, it began to fluctuate slightly, and if it rose too much, there would be cash out of the market.And this does not necessarily mean that there is money to leave the market, it is very likely that the big money is opening short orders to suppress the price of gold, so that they can buy more low-level chips.

However, the overall trend of gold prices is to rise sharply. This is the unanimous judgment of everyone. Therefore, even if big funds want to suppress the price of gold, they dare not go too far, lest they be surrounded by a large number of long funds.

After fluctuating slightly for a while, the price of gold went up in the shock, but the trend was not as fierce as it was at the beginning.

The trend of the gold price made Lin Baicheng very happy. With the amount of funds that exceeded 4 billion U.S. dollars after he used leverage, a 4% increase is equivalent to a profit of [-] million U.S. dollars. What's more, this wave of trends is definitely more than the current point.

"Go up, keep going up, I rely on you for the research and development funds of the semiconductor industry and biomedicine."

After listening to the report, Lin Baicheng hung up the phone. As long as the price of gold does not have a butterfly effect due to his rebirth, and the price can break through 800 US dollars per ounce later, then he does not have to worry about the research and development of the semiconductor industry and the biomedical industry that he himself leads. Funding up.

As long as you have money, whether it is the semiconductor industry or the biomedical industry, I believe you can use money to pile up achievements.

What's more, regardless of the semiconductor industry, Lin Baicheng still has a lot of confidence in the biomedical industry.It is mainly due to the clever brain brought by his rebirth. He dare not say that he has developed medicines such as immortality, but he is still confident in researching medicines that are beyond the times.

Changsheng Medicine Bio Company, this is the company that Lin Baicheng established specially for his research. The company has invested 1 million US dollars and is currently recruiting.There are many things to do in building advanced research laboratories, purchasing advanced instruments, recruiting excellent research talents, etc.

Although Lin Baicheng is confident that after studying, he is definitely the top in the world in terms of biomedicine, but drug research does not happen overnight, but a long-term job, and requires a lot of professional and excellent talents to assist. Working together as a team comes quickly.

The ultimate goal of Changsheng Pharmaceutical Bio-Company is to develop a drug that can make people live longer, but Lin Baicheng is not very confident. He only hopes that he can develop a drug that prolongs human life in his life, so that he can live for a few more years. Rather than the somewhat unrealistic fantasy of immortality.

the next morning.

Lin Baicheng learned from his personal secretary Chen Huixiang that at 11 o'clock last night in Hong Kong time, a full-scale war broke out between Hongsu and Afghanistan. Hongsu sent a total of more than 8 modern troops, and Afghanistan had no resistance at all.

Because it was too late, Qin Lan did not specifically report to Lin Baicheng.

Due to the stimulus of last night's incident, oil prices and gold prices ushered in greater gains. Among them, gold prices rose by as much as 7% yesterday, and it is not expected that they will continue to rise today, and there will be a wave of greater gains in the future.

Yesterday, Lin Baicheng made a huge profit.

The investment of Lin Baicheng and the small circle partner also made a small profit yesterday, with an average buying price of 441 US dollars per ounce, but the closing price of gold yesterday broke through the price of 450 US dollars per ounce, making a small profit of a little more than 2%.

With five times leverage, a 2% increase is equivalent to a profit of about 10% of the principal.That is to say, if you invest 1000 million US dollars, excluding expenses such as taxation and leverage interest, you can make a profit of almost 100 million US dollars, which is more than 400 million Hong Kong dollars.

Most importantly, it's only one day.

Today is Friday, and the capital market will continue to trade. The price of gold and oil will continue to rise without exception, and Lin Baicheng's investment will continue to make money.

However, this morning, Lin Baicheng went to Hongkong Electric Group, because the shareholders meeting was held today.

Shiyadi Swire, Henry Cassack, Michael Kadoorie and John Mabi all took the time to come to HK Electric Group to attend today's shareholders meeting.

Because it is a shareholder meeting, directors who do not hold a certain percentage of shares cannot participate in the meeting, and even shareholders who hold less than a certain percentage of shares cannot participate in the shareholders meeting. Therefore, only Lin Baicheng and Yingzi four people attended the shareholders meeting today.

At the beginning of the shareholders meeting, Lin Baicheng, who led the meeting, canceled the directorships of the original four directors, and then transferred these four directorships to Yingyao Company.

Yingyao's shareholding ratio exceeds 20%, so Lin Baicheng has no way to embarrass the British capital in this regard, and can only hand over four directors to the British capital.Unless one day Yingyao's shareholding in Hong Kong Electric Group falls below 20%, then he can find an opportunity to cancel their directorship, and calculate the directorship based on 5% of each directorship.

After that, what Lin Baicheng had to do was to cancel Grant and Fred's board seats. Only by kicking them out of the board of directors could he control the board of directors again.
