The Birth of the Hong Kong Island Family.

In just three days, all 858 residential units in Wenhua New Village were sold out, which became the news that the media in Hong Kong rushed to report.

The sales of 858 residential units amounted to 3050 million Hong Kong dollars, and the down payment received 915 million Hong Kong dollars (30%), which made Cheung Kong hold a lot of cash at once.Of course, Cheung Kong will not embezzle these funds and will use them for construction costs and other expenses.

In the conference room of Cheung Kong Industrial, Lin Zhichao was having a meeting with senior executives. His real estate company already has hundreds of employees, and its scale is expanding rapidly.

"We now have a total of seven sites, especially the large project of Wenhua New Village. The engineering work can be done more carefully. Guaranteeing the quality and progress of the construction period is the guarantee of our reputation. It is not a few years to do real estate. It is a long-term business. This is why others may not need 100 million yuan in construction costs for a building, but our construction costs are 10-20% higher.”

There are good and bad building materials, and some people like to cut corners. This is obviously not Lin Zhichao's style of doing things.He knows that if the building quality is good, it will form a reputation in the future. Hong Kong is so big. When people talk about the buildings built by Cheung Kong, they immediately feel that the quality is guaranteed.According to word of mouth, for the same real estate in the future, many people may prefer the building built by Cheung Kong.

Huang Changhong nodded and said, "Boss, don't worry, we are our own construction company, and the materials we use are relatively good. The quality must be among the best in Hong Kong."

Paul Li also said: "All buildings are constructed strictly according to the drawings. Manager Huang and I often inspect the construction site, and there will be no mistakes."

Hearing the guarantee from his subordinates, Lin Zhichao said: "Good! Today we have only built some residential buildings, and in the future we will build first-class commercial buildings, even skyscrapers, the tallest buildings in Asia, and famous buildings in the world. Therefore, we must cultivate excellent Teamwork is very important.”

Everyone was very excited. As a real estate developer, who wouldn't want to participate in those excellent buildings!Moreover, they also believe that the boss is not a 'dream', but has the absolute strength to realize it.

Next, Lin Zhichao discussed the matters on the site with everyone, and he must be careful.Since July last year, Lin Zhichao has spent more than one-third of his energy on Cheung Kong Industrial. He usually goes to the site to check the work.

Of course, Huang Changhong is mainly responsible for inspecting the site.Lin Zhichao trained Huang Changhong, Zhou Fuzhao, and Hu Zhaoxu to form the "Three Musketeers" model of Sun Hung Kai in his previous life.

In an auditorium located in Central, plastic businessmen from Hong Kong came to sign in one after another, and nearly a hundred gathered in a short while.

Today is the day for the establishment of the Hong Kong Plastics Chamber of Commerce. It has been sent to qualified plastic merchants in the form of an invitation letter; the basic requirement is to have at least 20 workers and be a factory owner who has been engaged in the plastics industry for half a year.

Therefore, qualified plastic merchants occupy half of the quota of Hong Kong plastic factories.At present, there are 200 plastic flower factories in Hong Kong, employing more than 7000 workers in total, and the development is much faster than that of the wig industry.

Because wigs are a fixed group of people, and plastic flowers can enter thousands of households; therefore, the plastic flower industry will continue to grow, and at a very fast speed.However, the growth rate of wigs has slowed down, and the rising height is limited.

As the "Father of Plastic Flowers", Lin Zhichao knows everyone one by one, and he knows almost one-third of them. Tao Derong who doesn't know him will introduce him, and he will introduce himself on his own initiative.

"Lin Sheng, this is Mr. Li Jiacheng from Changhe Plastic Factory. He has been in the plastic industry for six years!" Tao Derong introduced.

He seemed to remember that the boss had cared about this Li Jiacheng several times, so he specially introduced it.

Li Jiacheng said quickly: "Mr. Lin, hello!"

For him, Lin Zhichao is his idol. It is because of the plastic flower invented by Changjiang Plastic Factory that he can live an easy life; after entering the plastic flower industry for one year, he earned the same money as opening a plastic factory for five years. 20 Hong Kong dollars.

Lin Zhichao looked at Li Jiacheng's expression of admiration and respect for him, and suddenly wanted to laugh, not laughing at him, but a smug smile.He has no hostile thoughts towards Li Jiacheng, never has.The reason why he grabbed Li Jiacheng's opportunity was only to lose one of his biggest competitors; now, he is also willing to make some small money for Li Jiacheng, because he is no longer a threat.

"Li Sheng, how big is the factory?"

Hearing Lin Zhichao's concern, Li Jiacheng quickly said: "The scale is not large, there are more than 40 workers, and the factory area is thousands of feet."

Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "Don't worry! A trickle can also converge into a Yangtze River."

Li Jiacheng didn't know why, his heart ached, and soon he realized that he really liked the name of the 'Changjiang' company.

"Encouragement from Xie Linsheng! You are the father of plastic flowers and have made absolute contributions to the development of plastic flowers in Hong Kong. Everyone is very grateful to you!"

"Haha, thank you! My wish is that Hong Kong people have jobs, and you are the ones who help me realize my wish. I am grateful to you."

The people around gave flattery one after another!

Lin Zhichao briefly chatted with Li Jiacheng, and then got to know each other one by one, but the rest was just to say hello.

"Lin Sheng, I'm Tang Dingkang. There are more than [-] people in the factory, and I set up a factory in Xihuan." A businessman who could tell at a glance, took the initiative to introduce him.

Lin Zhichao was taken aback for a moment, and then he understood that this Tang Dingkang seemed to be the fuse of '67', that is, a labor dispute in his factory caused a major event.Of course, that kind of thing is just a trigger, and such triggers are everywhere in Hong Kong. Without him, other factories would have it, after all, it is a special period.

"it is good"

Then he ignored him, and then got to know everyone, after a circle, everyone stared at Lin Zhichao.

Everyone is proud to participate in this meeting organized by Lin Zhichao, after all, it is a good thing; moreover, Lin Zhichao is the father of plastic flowers, not only the plastic flowers invented by Changjiang Plastic Factory, but Changjiang Plastic Factory also allowed everyone to It is very convenient for them to visit the factory.

Next, the meeting officially begins.

Tao Derong is the host of the meeting!

Lin Zhichao has handed over the position of president of the Wig Chamber of Commerce to Chen Linyuan, and he will be the permanent honorary president; the same is true for the Plastic Flower Chamber of Commerce, and Tao Derong will be trained to replace him in the future.

In this way, Lin Zhichao can still make contributions to this industry. As for saying that Lin Zhichao is for influence, that is definitely one-sided.If Lin Zhichao was keen on influence, he would have brought together three Shunde chambers of commerce to merge and assumed the position of president.

Lin Zhichao really wants to contribute to Hong Kong's economy, after all, this is the future Linjiacheng.

".Okay, next we will elect the management of the 'Hong Kong Plastic Flower Chamber of Commerce'. The vice president, the first vote is the president, the second and third is the vice president."

Everyone was very surprised by this election. After all, Lin Zhichao should be the president of course, and everyone was absolutely convinced; but soon everyone was relieved, absolutely doing this way, Lin Zhichao is definitely still the president, but it is more convincing.

After a while, the chairman and vice-chairman positions were successfully elected. Lin Zhichao was elected as the chairman. The vice-chairman was Qian Hanzhou, known as the "Father of Plastics in Hong Kong", and Tao Derong was the other.

Because it was elected, Lin Zhichao did not plan to appoint the secretary-general. Tao Derong still has prestige in this industry. Lin Zhichao originally planned to appoint him as the secretary-general after being elected as the chairman if no one recommended him to cooperate with his work. .

In fact, many plastic merchants who have benefited from the Yangtze River Plastic Factory greet Tao Derong, and it is completely unreasonable not to recommend him.

"I didn't expect the two colleagues of our Yangtze River Plastic Factory to be recognized by everyone. I am very grateful for your trust. To be honest, I am the president with limited energy. With the help of President Qian and President Tao, this chamber of commerce will definitely run smoothly. Get up. The purpose of our chamber of commerce is to 'serve the prospect of plastic flowers in Hong Kong'. The plastic flower industry has a bright future, and the popularity of plastic flowers will last for a long time. Hong Kong plastic flowers account for 90% of the world's share. Just do it on your sleeves."

The crowd applauded!

Many people follow the trend and enter this industry. They don't think about the prospects of the plastic flower industry, and they don't know about it. Now they hear Lin Zhichao's speech, and they are very excited.

"The external conditions are very good, but we are also facing competition from local manufacturers in Hong Kong. I encourage everyone to compete fairly, which is more conducive to the development of the entire industry. The products of plastic flowers can be updated, and the coloring technology of plastic flowers can be deeply cultivated. These It’s all about our competition with each other.”

When it comes to internal competition, everyone also feels a sense of tension. The people of Hong Kong are too powerful. An industry has only been established for a year and a half, and there are already 200 factories.Yes, it is the plastic flower industry.

Although many of them are from plastic factories, the variety of plastic flowers has been added, but it is still fast anyway.

The first meeting of the "Hong Kong Plastic Flower Association" was held very successfully. In the evening, everyone went to the Hong Kong Hotel to hold a dinner.

The next day.

Lin Zhichao called Lu Bensheng from Changjiang Trading to the office, and said, "Go and inquire about the demand for plastic granules from Changjiang Plastic Factory, and try to stock up on a batch of plastic raw materials, which are almost enough for half a year to a year, and put them in the warehouse."

It suddenly occurred to him that when the Suez Canal crisis broke out, Europe, the United States and Japan would definitely be short of oil, because the transportation could not keep up; especially European countries such as Britain and France, which did not produce oil at this time, needed to be transported from the Middle East.

In this way, the possibility that plastic raw materials will also rise will increase, so be prepared, and it is not without warehouses and funds.

Lu Bensheng nodded and said, "I'll arrange it right away! But boss, do you want to increase the import of other materials?"

Lin Zhichao thought for a while, and then said: "According to the company's situation, it is appropriate to consider the reserve for 3 to 6 months. It's not a big deal, just be prepared."

Lu Bensheng immediately felt relieved. He thought there was some urgent matter, something similar to the Peninsular War happened.

"Ok"

After Lu Bensheng left, Lin Zhichao showed a smile.

If you are prepared, you can save some money. After all, 90% of global trade is carried by sea, and the freight rate has increased several times. It is no wonder that raw materials do not increase.

For example, to transport a barrel of oil, the freight itself may be more expensive than oil; because of the restrictions of Western countries, the oil in the Middle East is only 2.5 to 3 US dollars a barrel.A ton of oil is seven or eight barrels, which is only about 20 US dollars; if the Suez Canal breaks out, the freight will rise sharply, and it is normal that the freight is more expensive than oil.

"Boss, Chen Ping has finished all the processes of instant noodles, do you want to inspect it!" Wang Liang walked into the office and reported.

Lin Zhichao suddenly became interested and said, "Go, go and see the situation!"

In fact, instant noodles have already been developed, but after all, it is necessary to build a production line, especially the machinery needs to be manufactured by Bourne Machinery, so it has been prepared for a while.

Today's Bourne Machinery has developed and expanded, and the zipper-related machines, injection molding machines, etc. have developed much better than before.Now there are instant noodle machines, which will add another source of income.Moreover, Bourne Machinery not only produces the machinery needed in Hong Kong, but also produces other machinery for Europe and the United States.Because of Lin Zhichao's capital injection back then, it has now reached a higher level of development.

Later, Lin Zhichao came to the 'Doll Noodles' workshop, where there were already more than a dozen employees.

"boss"

"Well, how's it going?"

Chen Ping took Lin Zhichao to visit the machine that was producing instant noodles, and immediately saw the continuous production of 'doll noodles'.Doll Noodles is a brand named by Lin Zhichao, which is closer to the local name in Hong Kong.

"Is there any packaged one, soak a pack and try it?"

"Yes, we are now ready for official production, and then we will gain popularity in Hong Kong."

Lin Zhichao nodded, and followed everyone to a table where someone was preparing to make a pack of 'chicken noodle soup' for Lin Zhichao.

"Is there a slogan ready to be promoted?"

Chen Ping immediately said: "Yes, we plan to use '3 minutes to cook' as the slogan, so that the public can quickly accept it."

Cooked, in fact boiled water soaked.

I saw a staff member open the packaging bag on the spot, then take out the noodles and put them in the lunch box, and take out a packet of seasoning, which is a concentrated mixture of salt, monosodium glutamate, pepper, and chicken fat.The seasoning package adopts the ready-made packaging technology in Europe and America, which combines the two packages of seasoning into one package to save costs.

It smells good, and in this 'fragrance-poor' era, it will definitely be a hit.

After 3 minutes, Lin Zhichao began to taste the taste. He is used to delicacies from mountains and seas, so he will not directly express his feelings, but comment on the current social environment.

However, he, who is used to delicacies from mountains and seas, also finds them delicious.

“Nice, definitely welcome!”

Everyone was overjoyed. From the perspective of the boss, there was absolutely no mistake.

In fact, the instant noodles of this era, the prominent one is 'instant noodles', for those who work overtime.

"How much is the retail price?"

"4 hair"

The former Nissin Ramen was originally priced at 35 yen, which is 10 cents, or 0.56 Hong Kong dollars.

Lin Zhichao said with satisfaction: "Get ready to go public! Advertise more, especially on the bus body, and put a fried egg on the photo, which means that instant noodles and fried eggs are more reasonable. Also, what kind of products are we targeting? Customer groups, it is necessary to formulate targeted advertising sales.”

Chen Ping nodded and said, "Okay."

In fact, there is no need to worry about independent business.Doll noodles will monopolize the instant noodle market in Hong Kong, and there will be no local competitors.

There was another meeting on the spot, and Lin Zhichao left satisfied.

He is not worried that his subordinates will not work hard!
Because of the "year-end bonus system" he implemented in the Yangtze River Industry Group, the management of each subsidiary company has the opportunity to "high rewards". Take Chen Linyuan of the Changjiang Wig Factory as an example, and has received 12-month bonuses for two consecutive years. Year-end bonus, annual income has reached 4 Hong Kong dollars.If the benefits of the subsidiary are good, the management can get more months of year-end bonus.

And these people will not be unbalanced psychologically, thinking that they have created such a large amount of wealth for the company, because they understand that the biggest contribution is the boss, not them.

For example, for the product of instant noodles, Lin Zhichao directly pointed out its research and development direction, which saved the team a year of effort.
