The Birth of the Hong Kong Island Family.

Chapter 140 [Meet Lawyer Li]

On the training ground of Global Security, 18 male and female bodyguards stood in two rows, with their heads held high, revealing a kind of confidence and glory all over their bodies.After six months of devil training, they survived smoothly. During this period, more than half of the students were eliminated or withdrawn, so they are very honorable.

Of course, the trainees who have been eliminated or withdrawn can basically have another choice, one is the real on-board security, and the other is the workers of Lin Zhichao's company.

In particular, there were two trainees who were slightly disabled by training and left behind hidden injuries. Lin Zhichao even directly gave a subsidy of 3000 Hong Kong dollars and arranged a job.In theory, with their jobs and subsidies, they have no problem finding a wife.

Standing opposite them, Lin Zhichao looked at the group of bodyguards with satisfaction. There were a total of 12 male bodyguards and 6 female bodyguards, which were enough for the protection of the Lin family at this stage.

Xue Junshan took the initiative to participate in this training, so he is both a martial arts instructor and a bodyguard student; because he knows that he is an unprofessional bodyguard, and he just took advantage of the training of foreign instructors to further his studies.

"Very good. In six months, you have been reborn. It seems that the devil training is useful." Lin Zhichao walked to the front of the first row and said in a moderate tone.

Later, Lin Zhichao came to a female bodyguard and said, "Then do you know what kind of jobs you will be assigned next?"

Seeing Lin Zhichao looking at her, the female bodyguard in front of her couldn't help saying: "Bodyguard"

This is no secret anymore, because the instructors in the later period have already taught them how to protect the protected people, and the foreign instructors will not lie, everyone obviously understood it a long time ago.

"That's right, it's bodyguards! Next, everyone will arrange bodyguard work and sign a three-year bodyguard contract with the company. The signing fee is 1200 yuan, the monthly salary is 230 yuan, there are bonuses at the end of the year, and benefits for festivals, but there is no vacation for three years. There are devil training weeks and cultural classes. So wait a minute, those who are willing to sign can sign, and those who are not willing to sign can work in my company. Of course, the salary is the same as outside. You should know about the same money. After the contract expires in three years , you can raise your salary and get promoted, and you can find another career. Now, do you understand?"

None of these people are over 22 years old, and they are still young after three years.

"understand!"

Hearing this tone, he understood that a fool would not sign a contract, and worked so hard for six months, just to sign a contract and get a high salary!

Lin Zhichao nodded. He knew everyone's name and family situation in this group of bodyguards.If they serve the Lin family with peace of mind and reach the age of 30, there is no problem buying a house.The important thing is that Lin Zhichao has so many companies, they can arrange their future work, and they can serve the Lin family until retirement.

Together with Xue Junshan, there are a total of 19 bodyguards, not too many, after all, the driver will have to be replaced by them in the future.

Qin Li is a female bodyguard. She is only 18 years old this year. After signing the contract, she excitedly received a signing bonus of 1200 yuan. She was then told to have a day off and gather at Conduit Road at six o'clock the next day.

She couldn't wait to go home, planning to share the news with her parents.

After returning to the wooden house in Shek Kip Mei, I saw my mother working and a younger sister helping out. As for the father and 14-year-old brother, they are still doing the most tiring work at the pier!

She suddenly felt a sense of pride, she was proud of herself.

"Ali! Why are you back!" Mother said in shock.

She thought her daughter was fired by the boss, after all, she had heard that once her daughter was selected, her monthly salary would be one or two hundred yuan.As for what her daughter is doing, she only knows that she will serve as a servant to the rich lady and wife in the future.

"Mom, why don't you like me coming home!" Ali said unhappily.

"Why am I happy? You were finally selected for training, why did you run home?"

Afterwards, Ali didn't talk nonsense, took out 1200 Hong Kong dollars, and threw it in front of her.

"My God, why is there so much money, hide it!"

After finishing speaking, he snatched the money directly, then counted it, and then showed a surprised expression on his face.

The husband and son fight against things at the pier every day, and the combined monthly salary is just over 100 a month.

Fortunately, this daughter actually got back 1200 Hong Kong dollars!

She stuffed the money tightly into her pocket calmly, and then said, "Where did this money come from?"

Qin Li stroked her sister's little head, and said proudly: "This is my contract of prostitution. I signed a three-year contract to work as a servant, and this is just a signing fee."

"What do you mean by signing bonus? Is it all salary?"

In terms of salary, it seems a little less, but it seems good to be able to get back so much at one time, with food and housing included.

"That is, as long as you sign the contract and sign, you will have this money. The salary is calculated separately, 150 yuan per month!" Qin Li said seriously.

"150? So much, more than your father and younger brother combined, what kind of servant are you? Self-combing maids don't have such a high salary, do they?"

"It's a servant. A servant who wants to protect the master. If someone wants to attack the master, I will be the shield."

"Ah, it's so dangerous, wouldn't it be hard work?"

"Then I won't go and return the money to someone else."

"You girl, what are you talking about? Others worked hard to train you and spent money. And the salary is so high that 150, your father and brother can't earn that money even if they work hard."

"Okay, it's my job to co-author, right?"

Qin's mother did not expect that six months is not common, and her daughter has changed, and she is no longer afraid of herself.And she actually felt scared in front of her daughter.

"Where are there so many attacks? Look at how many people want to work with the rich. You can be a cow or a horse. Your salary is so high, you must cherish it. Mom, please, can I kneel down for you? !" Mother Qin just wanted to make more money at this time, so she decided to let her daughter become a rich man's servant.

Qin Li hurriedly supported her mother who was about to kneel, and Qin's mother couldn't move immediately.

"Okay, I'm kidding you! I'm going to report at six o'clock tomorrow morning. I don't have a holiday for three years. If I get paid, I will get it back to you every month. I don't keep a cent of 150 yuan. Here it is!" Qin Li said.But she was thinking in her heart, it's not that I want to lie to you, but that the boss specially taught them that the female bodyguards can save some money for themselves, and don't give it all to the family.

"You girl, what have you trained for these six months, why are you so strong?"

Then the family was happy, went out to buy good wine and food, waited for the man in the family to come home, and shared good things.

That night, when Qin Li's father and younger brother came back, they were overjoyed when they heard the news. Afterwards, the neighbors in the neighborhood also came to join in the fun when they heard about Qin Li's return, and started asking questions.

"Ali, I heard that you work as a servant for rich people. How much is your monthly salary?"

"100"

"What? There are 100. Aren't the maids outside all fifty or sixty?"

"It's different, I'm working as a maid for a big family, how can I be a maid for a small family outside!"

"This girl is really different. She works with the big family and can even talk!"

Later, someone said: "Ali, what do you think about our family's Ah Hong, why don't you find someone everywhere?"

Qin Li suddenly said angrily: "It's not that good, I don't like his lazy appearance!"

"You girl, you have been a rich man's girl for a few days, and you think it's great!"

"It's just amazing. If you talk nonsense again, I will let our master and lady trouble you and lock you in."

The visitor immediately left in resentment, and everyone dispersed for a while.

Qin's father looked at his daughter curiously, and said, "After six months of training, how have you changed!"

"People who don't change will be eliminated!"

Can it remain the same? It is the foreign instructors who train them, and there are other teachers. After the whole process, people must have become different. In terms of courage, they have become different. The instructors directly took the snakes and let them hug the women. In the arms, if you can't accept it, you can only quit, and there are grenades, it is simply a test of courage.If it weren't for the lure of high salaries, they would have run away long ago.

If the timid students have already been eliminated halfway.

In short, the family was very happy that night, and they couldn't sleep all night.

Qin Li also sighed, fortunately, she didn't tell her that the salary was 230, otherwise the family would not be able to sleep for a month.

Another spring, March.

In the morning, Lin Zhichao woke up from his sleep and pulled out his two sore arms, which can be described as sore and happy.

There were originally four bedrooms upstairs, one of which was converted into a study, one was used as Wu Wenying's bedroom, and the other two bedrooms belonged to Tang Caiyun and Xu Caiying.In fact, Lin Zhichao sleeps in a bedroom with the main room and the bungalow every day.

"Sister, let me come!"

Xu Caiying quickly came to Lin Zhichao's side, dressing and arranging for her husband.

Seeing this, Tang Caiyun continued to lie down with a big belly.

Lin Zhichao, on the other hand, was enjoying a pair of jade hands buttoning buttons in front of him, a faint feminine fragrance lingered in his nose, and his beautiful face was close at hand.

Seeing Lin Zhichao enjoying himself so much, Xu Caiying was also very happy, and she didn't forget to take the initiative to have a morning kiss.

"Are you used to having bodyguards around you?"

"It's alright, as the female bodyguard is the assistant and secretary, and the male bodyguard is the driver, it feels okay."

Instead, Lin Zhichao dismissed or transferred all the original drivers, and employed newly trained bodyguards as part-time.These male and female bodyguards all live in nearby dormitories. At night, only two female bodyguards live on the first floor of their home and are on duty all night.

This arrangement is to avoid disturbing the lives of the family too much; even the live-in nanny is only Axia, and the rest of the nanny rented a room nearby for them to minimize the noise.

At a quarter past seven in the morning, the whole family gathered around to have breakfast.

Lin Zhichao eats a delicious breakfast and enjoys his current life, especially the good life he can bring to his family.

"This house is still too small! I will strive to find a residence or land in Deep Water Bay and Repulse Bay within a year, covering an area of ​​[-] to [-] square feet. Then, I will build a palace for you and make sure you like it." .”

He is still too conservative!
Unexpectedly, his career was advancing by leaps and bounds, so the plan had to be advanced.Of course, there is no shortage of garden-style villas in this era, such as How Tung’s Xiaolu (The Peak), Yu Chengdong’s Yu Garden (Repulse Bay), Mo Gansheng’s palace mansion (Mid-Levels Conduit Road) and so on.

Therefore, it would not be unusual for him to build a garden-style villa at No. 79 Deep Water Bay.What's more, it will take a certain amount of time to build, and I am afraid that they will move in in the mid-to-late 50s.

"A European palace?" Xu Caiying said in surprise.

"European style. A large base is used below, which is the podium, and a three-story European-style building is built above it, equipped with swimming pools and gardens." Lin Zhichao spoke out the blueprint in his heart.

Immediately, the girls yearned for it. Everyone actually likes swimming, but Repulse Bay is always a little inconvenient, let alone the public swimming pool, which is almost impossible to go.

After chatting for a while, everyone was full.

Lin Zhichao went to work, Xu Caiying and Lin Xiner went to school, Tang Caiyun and Wu Wenying arranged housework for the day, and they could also make appointments to go shopping.

In the morning, Lin Zhichao came to Uniqlo clothing company.

In the conference room, Lin Zhichao listened to the work report of the management headed by General Manager Zhao Mingyi.

"Sing Tao's flagship store will open on the 18th weekend, and Hong Kong is a unified decoration, signboard, management and service. The turnover of the two stores in Hong Kong continues to rise. The turnover of the flagship store last month reached 15.6 Hong Kong dollars, with a total turnover of 10.6." Zhao Mingyi began to report on his work seriously.

All the management couldn't help showing joy, this report card is very impressive.

Lin Zhichao also calculated in his mind that with a monthly turnover of more than 27 yuan, the profit should be [-] to [-] Hong Kong dollars, which is no less than a medium-sized factory.

Really great!

In this era, money is easy to earn, but it is not easy to earn, it depends on whether you have a brain!
The overall positioning of crocodile shirts is mid-to-high-end clothing, which can be regarded as filling a gap in the market.Because there is not much concept of branded clothing in Hong Kong, either rich people go to tailors to order, or poor people go to small shops to buy unbranded clothing, or they simply tailor themselves.

Most of the market is middle-class, and they prefer brand clothing such as crocodile shirts. Imported fabrics can change the neckline and cuffs. The most important thing is that they don’t lose face when worn out; because crocodile shirts are often advertised on the radio. , Some streets still have posters to promote it, so the popularity is quickly established.

Lin Zhichao has been wearing crocodile shirts all the time now, he thinks it is very good, the fabric is comfortable, and the style is also innovative.Occasionally, I take my wife to visit the crocodile shirts, not only to inspect the store management, but also to experience the clothing of the crocodile shirts.

"The development is not bad, and we will strive to make persistent efforts. The most important thing is the comfort of the fabric, the quality of production, and the design that keeps up with the times. Only when it is consistent for a long time can the brand be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people." Lin Zhichao said.

"Yes, boss." Everyone answered seriously.

This boss is not simple, this is everyone's opinion.

The crocodile shirt can achieve today's results, the boss's idea is an absolute magic weapon.From store decoration, clerk training, to clothing fabrics and design, and finally to overall planning and marketing, the boss has made an absolute contribution, and it is an unexpected 'good bridge (smart trick)'.

The fabrics of the crocodile shirts are also carefully selected high-end fabrics in Europe and America. People in the design department first select them, and then bring them back to Hong Kong for confirmation, and finally import them.In short, what is needed is comfort.

"By the way, boss, there is a clothing store in Sing Tao. It was originally called Cartelo, but recently they heard that we are going to open a branch in Sing Tao. They actually changed the sign to 'Cartelo Crocodile'. I think they are going to sue them. "

Lin Zhichao was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect such a thing to happen.

He knew that the Cartelo brand was founded by three brothers including Chen Jun and Chen Xianjin; in his previous life, Chen Jun bought the crocodile brand in 1952, and then the brand was shared between Hong Kong and Singapore, and Cartelo crocodile was extended.

As a result, there are three crocodile brands in the world, and there have been lawsuits since then.

Unexpectedly, this Chen family would dare to directly crown the crocodile brand, it is really not afraid of things.

Lin Zhichao said: "Well, I'm going to Xingdao this week, and I'll find a lawyer and attend the opening. This kind of thing, just leave it to the lawyer, and you can concentrate on managing it."

Zhao Mingyi nodded and said, "Okay, they will definitely lose. It's all the Commonwealth. We registered the logo. They obviously don't understand the law."

I don’t know if he knows the law or not. Anyway, Chen Jun seems to be an honorary doctor of law from a famous American university in his previous life. Of course, he may have bought it with money.

That being the case, it happened to be the Chen family.

Sunday, May 3.

Xingdao crocodile shirt officially opened, and the entrance was decorated with joy. The crocodile shirt was publicized in advance through newspapers, and it was expected to become a hit with huge sums of money.

"Lawyer Li, since everyone is here, shall we cut the ribbon together?" Lin Zhichao said to a young man who was also young.

I have long wanted to make friends with this lawyer Li, and now I have an opportunity.

"Mr. Lin is polite, then I will be happy!" Lawyer Li did not shirk.

Then, the ribbon-cutting began.

Not far from the crowd, two brothers, Chen Jun and Chen Xianjin, were watching all this.

"Brother, that young man is Lin Zhichao, I didn't expect him to come to Xingdao to participate in the opening!" Chen Xianjin said.

Chen Jun nodded and said, "I never thought that he would come to Xingdao to participate in the opening of a branch with such a big business."

He returned to Hong Kong in 1947 to open Huamin Commercial Bank. He knew that Lin Zhichao was amazing, and occasionally met Lin Zhichao.

"Then will we be in trouble?" Chen Xianjin asked worriedly.

He had always been a bit apprehensive about renaming Cartelo to Cartelo Crocodile.On the contrary, my eldest brother has a special liking for the crocodile brand clothing. Because he missed buying from the Hong Kong government, he has been annoyed, so he finally added a crocodile to it.

Chen Jun said with a calm expression: "It's okay! The crocodile does not belong to a certain family, and we are not directly called the crocodile brand, but the Cartelo crocodile. How can there be trouble? On the contrary, we will go shopping later. When visiting this crocodile shirt, we must learn their advantages, and then we will also drive Cartelo crocodile to Hong Kong. I know that crocodile shirt has made a lot of money this year and has many loyal customers.”

Chen Xianjin said with a smile: "That's not easy. We can also make real brand clothing by learning from other people's strengths."

the other side.

After attending the opening ceremony, Lin Zhichao and Lawyer Li formally discussed the matter of suing 'Cartelo Crocodile', and all the materials have been given to Lawyer Li.

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, because they are all in the clothing industry. Cartelo suddenly added the word crocodile and confused it on the trademark. It is already a serious infringement. I will let them go back to the original way soon." Li said. The lawyer said confidently.

Lin Zhichao said: "That's really thanks to Lawyer Li! By the way, Lawyer Li, I also have a manufacturing factory and a shipping office in Xingdao, so I want to hire you as a private lawyer and have a long-term cooperation in the future."

If you don’t make good connections now, others will flourish in a few years.

"What kind of manufacturing company?" Lawyer Li asked curiously.

"Are you free? I'll take you to see a factory with nearly 400 people that produces zippers."

"Okay, Mr. Lin's career is really big, I can't believe it, and you are only in your 20s."

"Wonderful! Then shall we go now?"

"it is good"

Under Lin Zhichao's deliberate wooing, lawyer Li also felt that Lin Zhichao was very remarkable. It was of course very good to be able to cooperate and be friends.
