I am many years in the courtyard
Chapter 451: Make a big wave
Chapter 451: Make a big wave
Strange country, seaside villa.
The sun rises again, and a new day has arrived.
The thief incident last night was just a small episode, and it didn't keep them talking about it for many years.
When you go out to play, it’s better to talk about some happy things.
Let those bad things drift away with the wind.
Time flies while catching the sea and enjoying the scenery in the strange country.
Take Lake Wakatipu for example. After many years of climbing over mountains and ridges, they finally got a glimpse of its scenery. It is indeed a unique sight.
It is said that this lake has the reputation of Emerald Lake, and everyone has a good taste.
Although it is August, which is the winter time of the year in this strange country, the scenery is not particularly beautiful, but it has its own flavor.
For many years they stayed nearby for several days before moving on to the next location.
There are really many lakes here in Strange Country, especially beautiful lakes.
After seeing too many beautiful scenery, I suddenly felt that it was just like that.
There are so many surprises on the journey that it becomes dull.
Of course, for Xiaodoubao and the others, no matter what the scenery is, it is always different in their eyes.
Live happily every day, have fun, and don't need to think about studies, medical skills, etc. Such a good life is simply not too enjoyable.
However, as time goes by, the balance of the vacation is running out.
There is no way to recharge, you can only return to Hong Kong Island after it expires and end the trip.
In mid-August, the family returned to Hong Kong Island. Brother Jing immediately cried aggrievedly when he saw everyone.
The kind that bursts into tears and can't stop crying.
"How old are you, and you're still crying?"
It has been funny for many years. I couldn’t help but taste it when I saw the little kid hugging his mother tightly:
"Okay, come down quickly and don't be embarrassed."
Qin Huairu gave him a roll of eyes. She was really jealous of her own son.
She hasn't mentioned that they often let him, the father, carry Xiaodou Bao.
However, she still asked Brother Jing to come down. After all, she had been educating children for many years. As a mother, she couldn't be too protective.
"You know you're wrong, don't you?"
Brother Jing nodded hurriedly now, regret already occupying his heart.
In the past month, he has been studying and exercising under the supervision of four teachers, and he has never been idle for a moment.
Even when his grandpa came to visit him, he only rested for half a day, that's all.
These days are miserable!
"It's good to know that you were wrong. If you are so naughty again in the future, how do you think I will deal with you?"
After saying a harsh word for many years, I started to check my homework.
What he said must be true.
You can't just deal with it casually or skip the assessment at all after the little guy has been studying for so long.
If this is the case, then the significance of this punishment will be greatly reduced.
Brother Jing did not relax at all and quickly accepted his father's assessment.
Through the assessment, it has been confirmed over many years that this child is very hardworking.
If it weren't for being too naughty, it wouldn't be like this.
"Okay, it's not bad. Keep it up from now on and don't be stupid again, do you hear me?"
"Yeah, I heard it." Brother Jing was already scared, and now he asked cautiously: "Dad, can I go out and play ball with Big Brother and the others?"
"Go."
After getting the permission, Brother Jing ran away in a hurry, disappearing like a rabbit.
Qin Huairu chuckled:
"Look at you, you scared the child so much that he will probably look like a quail in the future."
"Xiao Ru, do you believe it or not, within half a year, he will immediately return to his original self?"
"I don't believe it!" Qin Huairu felt that her child must be a good child who can correct his mistakes.
However, for many years, I have believed that the country is easy to change but the nature is hard to change.
Some children are just like this. If they are not whipped often, it is really impossible to make them correct themselves.
"Then let's take a look."
After many years of laughter, I stopped talking to him about this matter.
Anyway, nothing will come out of the conversation, so just wait.
Of course, this also reminded him for many years that he should pay more attention to the physical and mental health of his children.
You can't just let it go. Occasionally, you should also pull the reins.
Otherwise, something like Brother Jing might happen.
In the blink of an eye, time has quickly entered September.
The little one has entered middle school, and his third sister Bai Doufu is still in the sixth grade.
The reason is also very simple. Bai Doufu’s talents are all focused on writing and singing, which involves a lot of experience.
So she could only go to sixth grade step by step instead of skipping to middle school.
On the other hand, the little one is different. He has a lot of time and has completely studied the middle school textbooks on his own.
If he hadn't been too young, he would have taken the college entrance examination.
Interestingly, not long after school started in September, the little boy was discovered by his teacher, who hoped that he could participate in some Mathematical Olympiad competition.
"What? Mathematical Olympiad competition?"
On this day, after the little boy came home from school, he relayed what his teacher said, which immediately made many years of people exclaim.
"Yes, Dad, what's wrong?"
The little boy asked in surprise. He thought his father's reaction was so strange.
Bai Doufu and the others also looked at him with surprise and curiosity, because they didn't know what a Mathematical Olympiad was.
Many years took a deep breath and said:
"I know you are good at math, but I didn't expect you to be so good. Since your teacher asked you to participate in the Mathematical Olympiad, then you should participate well. From now on, our family will also have a scientist."
"Little one, you have to remember one thing. If you are talented in mathematics, then work hard to show it."
"The golden age of many scientists starts from the age of seventeen or eighteen and ends before the age of 30. This is the best age for them to complete many great mathematical problems or inventions."
"You are ten years old now, and you have shown extraordinary talent in mathematics since you were a child. In this case, then you should continue to work hard, you know?"
When he said this, the atmosphere in the living room instantly changed.
Qin Huairu was very excited. Will his son become a scientist?
Bai Doufu was also very happy for her brother. Finally, she was no longer the only genius in the family.
Being a genius is actually very stressful.
Because you have high expectations, if you don't meet the expectations, you will easily receive indifferent looks from the people around you.
After getting used to being admired by the stars, it is actually difficult to return to a normal life.
But while returning to a dull life without so much pressure, on the other hand, there are anxious days of enjoying cheers but being stressed out. Only those who have experienced it will understand this kind of torment.
The little one nodded seriously, "Dad, I know, I will work hard."
Many Years patted his shoulder and said:
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. You still need to live according to normal living habits in the future."
"You have only half-stepped into the door of scientific research now. If you want to achieve a great career in the future, or even make a name for yourself in history, you must have a healthy body. Do you understand?"
"Well, Dad, I know. I also read medical books. I will always keep what you said in mind."
Seeing the child's answer like this, I was very happy for many years.
Then he didn't forget to give a few words to Brother Jing and Feng Huolun, asking them to learn more from their elder brother.
The Mathematical Olympiad competition suddenly broke into everyone's lives.
As the little boy joined the Mathematical Olympiad class at St. Paul's Middle School, from time to time he would reveal some news about the Mathematical Olympiad class and the questions while having dinner with everyone, which immediately made everyone exclaim.
Qin Huairu said she couldn't understand, and the two senior sisters Xiaodou Bao and Xiao Tuanzi could only understand a little bit.
But if you let them do it, it will be very difficult.
The topics that the middle school Mathematical Olympiad class trains on every day are very different, and they are not the same as the knowledge in ordinary middle school textbooks.
The problem-solving ideas and techniques are completely different.
Even on this day, the little boy said that he was reading college books.
Hearing this, Brother Jing and the other children all looked at him with admiration.
"Dad, these are completely ghost drawings. I can't understand them. Dad, can you understand them?"
When the little one went to school, the exercises he had left at home were dug out by Hot Wheels.
After a few glances, he expressed that he couldn't learn it anymore.
"Of course I can understand it. Come on, come on, you guys too, and I'll explain it to you."
After years of laughing and laughing, he also became somewhat interested in studying mathematics with his eldest son.
By the way, let's see if we can inspire the two children, Brother Jing and Hot Wheels.
But it's obvious that it can't be carried away.
Time flies, and Xu Yi's first birthday party soon arrives.
Originally, we didn't plan to hold any birthday party for our children for many years, but Barter and the others said they wanted to get together, so they decided to get together by the way.
Good guys, people like Huo Jiandong and Huang Jiacheng didn't know where they heard the news, and they also called one after another, saying that they would definitely arrive that day.
Got it!
Then quickly notify Li Jinlian and the others, as well as the Tuen Mun farm, to quickly transport more ingredients.
There are chickens, ducks, geese, cattle, sheep, pigs and other poultry on the farm, and there are plenty of days for breeding.
Especially for free-range chickens, many are roosters and hens that are one year or even more than two years old.
This kind of chicken needs to be stewed very well so that the chicken feet can be bitten. Otherwise, it will be very difficult.
After all, the chicken feet that have been raised for more than a year are very, very hard. If they are simply stewed, you can't even think about chewing them.
It must be simmered in a pressure cooker for more than half an hour to taste delicious.
When guests like Huo Jiandong arrived, the aroma of mushroom stewed chicken was already filling the air.
It was obviously just a gathering of ordinary friends, but now it has changed drastically, and it has turned into Xu Yi's first birthday party.
Huang Jiacheng and the others all sent gifts. I have been speechless for many years. There are so many longevity locks and bracelets. How long will this child wear them?
Twenty longevity locks alone were sent. Counting the twelve from last year's full moon wine, there were already 32.
Needless to say, there are bracelets ranging from small to large, with gold, silver, jade and other different materials, totaling more than a hundred.
"No, Brother Dong, is this a bracelet too?"
Many years ago, pointing to the jade bracelet that was obviously worn by an adult, he asked somewhat speechlessly.
Huo Jiandong smiled happily, "I don't know either. My family bought this for me. Let me ask her?"
Lu Yanni was laughing and chatting with the ladies. Why did she call over?
This is quite interesting. It seems to be a bracelet bought for Xu Yi to wear as an adult.
Ugh!
A perfect debt of gratitude!
Forget it, pay more attention in the future. When someone has a baby, gets married or other important events, send them there as soon as possible.
Of course, if you have enough money for many years, you can just buy it when the time comes.
However, you can't go to the jewelry store named by Chow Tai Fook and others to purchase in person, otherwise you will easily be exempted from the order.
As for Zheng Zongyuan's jewelry store, I have not wanted to have anything to do with this person for many years.
This guy, at the beginning of this year, had already gone to Bald Eagle to copy the operating model of FamilyMart convenience stores.
I have been to Bald Eagle several times over the years and paid attention to it. It is developing quite well.
But it seems that there are some problems, such as the logistics is not timely and the price is relatively high.
I just don’t know what the profit margin is.
After the banquet, Bao Yugang and Huo Jiandong were left to drink tea together.
The name is to drink tea, but in fact it is just to talk about something.
"Brother Gang, how is the shipping business of your Global Shipping Group going lately?"
After hearing this sentence for many years, Bao Yugang immediately realized the opportunity for cooperation.
Generally speaking, I don’t like to talk about business matters for many years.
However, if he takes the initiative to talk about this topic, it means that there is a possibility of cooperation, and he has probably investigated it clearly.
Therefore, Bao Yugang just answered truthfully.
From its inception in the 50s to the present, Pao Yugang's global shipping career has already entered its peak.
Even if there are no accidents, in a few years, he will be able to firmly occupy the top spot among the world's seven major shipping kings.
Hong Kong Island has such a big shipping king. It can also be seen from this that the Hong Kong Island economy has developed at an astonishing speed in the past ten years.
Many years ago pointed at Yang Jun and Wu Hao, then pointed at Battelle, and continued:
"It's like this. Next, our brothers will set up a shipping company. I hope Brother Gang, your Global Shipping Group will also participate in it."
It's very simple. In the next few years, we will engage in global shipping, mainly transporting supermarket goods.
Such as paper towels, seafood, clothes, daily necessities, etc., just for one thing, that is to fully attack the bald eagle market.
Therefore, it is very important to establish your own global shipping routes.
He would not place his hopes on Bao Yugang.
Businessmen have always been big on profits, so they had to find a way for many years.
The purpose of bringing Bao Yugang in was not to misunderstand the other party, but also to bring him into this interest chain, making full use of his expertise to protect the supermarket's logistics and shipping lines.
When Huo Jiandong heard this, his blood was boiling and he couldn't help but said:
"Many years, what about me?"
Naturally, he very much hopes to participate, because the benefits here are definitely not small.
"Brother Dong, we'll talk about this later."
Nuan Nian smiled slightly and signaled the other party to be calm.
"Okay, okay, I'm not in a hurry, you continue, you continue." Huo Jiandong suddenly felt good and said with a smile.
Bao Yugang thought for a while and then agreed.
He has no reason not to agree to the proposal for many years. This is a matter of mutual benefit.
However, he may not have that much cash anymore, so it seems he will have to find a loan from HSBC Bank.
As a businessman who started his business with loans, Bao Yugang still has a great gambling habit.
From the beginning, he took out a loan from HSBC Bank and paid interest to the bank. He himself used the money to purchase large ships and then leased the ships to those in Tokyo.
It can be said that this is something that benefits all parties.
Nowadays, as your business is getting bigger and bigger, you have to consider going ashore.
Seeing that Bao Yugang agreed, it took many years for him to chat with Huo Jiandong about the supermarket.
"Brother Dong, this time I plan to enter the European and American retail industry. If you have ideas, you can participate."
"Is it a FamilyMart convenience store?"
Huo Jiandong suddenly showed an expression of disbelief, "Are you willing to release your shares?"
“It’s not a FamilyMart, it’s a supermarket.”
After years of laughing, both Huo Jiandong and Bao Yugang were confused.
Although supermarkets are also in the retail industry, they are obviously not as good as FamilyMart convenience stores, right?
Nowadays, in most parts of East and Southeast Asia, the FamilyMart convenience store model is developing rapidly.
It stands to reason that if we want to develop in Europe and the United States at this time, FamilyMart convenience stores must be the first to take the lead.
But what the hell is this supermarket?
Is it a raw seafood supermarket?
Not only were they confused, but Battelle, Yang Jun and others were also confused.
"That's right. European and American countries are very different from East Asia or Southeast Asia."
Large supermarkets are the industry with more development potential, not convenience stores.
Of course, FamilyMart convenience stores will also enter European and American countries, but they will not be the main force.
Shengmeng Seafood Supermarket is merged into a new supermarket, adopting a supermarket model of small profits but quick turnover, and establishing a strong and complete logistics system.
The name of the new supermarket is Huimin Supermarket, which is more down-to-earth.
However, the investment in Huimin Supermarket will be very large. Bald Eagle Continent alone will need to establish several logistics centers, as well as two transportation lines, including sea transportation and air express transportation.
Therefore, the scale of investment will be very large.
"Brother Dong, didn't you invest in an airline before? Now the opportunity has come, air cargo logistics!"
After hearing these words for many years, Huo Jiandong was not happy, but worried:
"What products require air express delivery? And the cost of air express delivery is very high. Aren't you afraid that all the profits from the supermarket will be given to the airlines?"
Today’s aviation kerosene, passenger aircraft, etc. are all very expensive.
After entering the 70s, oil prices have begun to grow slowly. Especially after [-], oil prices will definitely usher in a surge.
And it has insisted on operating a low-cost supermarket for many years. As a result, the profit margin must be very low.
How can supermarkets with low profits pay for shipping costs?
You can't invest so much money to open a supermarket and end up using it all to pay for freight and working for nothing, right?
"Brother Dong, you may not know much about the high-end catering industry, and you may be skeptical about the logistics system and the profitability of cheap supermarkets, but believe me, I am not a random person."
After many years of laughter, he didn't mean to show off, but he had no way to say it now.
Air freight is definitely a must. For some top-notch ingredients, in order to ensure their freshness, air freight is the most cost-effective option.
A cheap supermarket does not mean that all the products in it are very cheap.Besides, is the price of oil at [-] US dollars a barrel very expensive?
In fact, it’s just so-so.
He continued to elaborate on his views over the next many years.
He talked about Huimin Supermarket’s investment philosophy, development, etc.
This is much more useful than taking out the plan directly.
Because during this period, most people still don’t like to read plans.
What's more, the people who came to the scene were all old friends, and during the chat, the matter was decided.
The investment amount of more than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars almost scared Huo Jiandong and others.
Such a huge sum of money should be used to build a supermarket?
Is it too extravagant?
However, I have learned over the years that this is necessary.
What's more, Huimin Supermarket is not just Huimin Supermarket. The logistics system alone is a huge investment.
The logistics system requires a lot of money, such as building a large warehouse, purchasing refrigerators, transport vehicles, semi-trailers, small transport vehicles, etc. These are all money.
The second is the expenditure on personnel wages. This part is relatively simple. Drivers are recruited directly from Hong Kong Island.
Drivers who have been able to drive normally on Hong Kong Island for more than a year without any traffic accidents will have absolutely no problem going to Bald Eagle.
After a simple calculation, an investment of 20 billion Hong Kong dollars is still much?
It is definitely not enough, and even more funds will need to be invested later.
Of course, this depends on the competitor on the Bald Eagle side.
If the competitors over there are too weak, they will definitely continue to increase investment in many years to occupy the market at a faster speed.
On the contrary, then proceed steadily, spend time with the other party first, and then slowly develop when you have money.
"By the way, in addition to Huimin Supermarket, Trans Asia Shipping and Extreme Logistics, upstream clothing, paper towels, daily necessities, etc., Brother Dong, Brother Gang. Take a look at which industries you want to choose as the upstream supply of our Huimin Supermarket. Merchant?"
After a pause, he went on to say:
"This is one of the keys that determines whether our Huimin Supermarket can beat the local Bald Eagle company."
"We have a cheap labor market on Hong Kong Island, and the cost of the products we produce will be far lower than that of our Bald Eagle counterparts."
"Even if the logistics cost is increased, it won't be too much."
"Of course, if you want to invest in these upstream industrial chains, then quality and quantity are the key. Otherwise, you will have to withdraw from the supplier list."
For many daily products in supermarkets, it is definitely not possible to purchase them directly from Bald Eagle.
Because even if you purchase in bulk, the expensive labor costs on the Bald Eagle side will be directly flat on the goods.
For example, a piece of clothing costs about three dollars to produce in Bald Eagle, but what about in Hong Kong Island?It's only one and five Hong Kong dollars to hold on.
One U.S. dollar is equal to five Hong Kong dollars and eight cents. According to this exchange rate, three U.S. dollars is equal to 17 Hong Kong dollars and four cents.
So if a piece of clothing is transported from Hong Kong Island to Bald Eagle directly by sea, it will cost only one Hong Kong dollar, and its cost is only two and a half Hong Kong dollars.
Compared with the local Bald Eagle product priced at HK$17 and [-] cents, there is not much of a difference.
In addition to these advantages, for many years I have naturally hoped that Hong Kong Island's manufacturing industry could reach a higher level.
Moreover, as the manufacturing industry on Hong Kong Island develops, these industries can be gradually transferred to the mainland in the future, and even now it is possible to invest and build factories in the mainland.
Of course, Huo Jiandong is probably not qualified to invest and build factories in the mainland now.
Take it step by step, go slowly, time will tell.
Because too much information was released, Huo Jiandong and others were overwhelmed.
So it means it needs to be considered for a day or two, but the investment is certain.
For them, whether it is upstream supply chain factories, Huimin supermarkets, or high-speed logistics, they are extremely profitable projects.
However, my strength is a bit weak, so it doesn’t mean that I can eat whatever I want.
By the time Huo Jiandong and the others left, it was already 11:30 pm.
Qin Huairu had already fallen asleep with her child. When she touched the pillow on the pillow, it was a familiar smell. She couldn't help but muttered: Why is it so late?
"Well, there were a lot of things, so it was a little late."
After many years of talking, he was about to kiss her, but found that she was actually fast asleep.
I couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that it was quite late tonight.
In the next few days and many years, I was busy with the Huimin supermarket system.
Recruitment comes first, training comes second, and product selection comes next.
There are so many things to do, and they can’t all be done in one or two days.
Taking advantage of this time, I went to talk to Yu Guangyuan of China Resources Company several times with my plan in hand for many years.
"Leader, what does the above say?"
"It says you are too brave. How can you be sure that your plan will make a lot of money?"
Yu Guangyuan pointed it out angrily and said:
"And your plan is too risky. You have to invest it yourself. Although there are Chinese investors like Bao Yugang and others, Huo Jiandong..."
"As soon as the bald eagle makes trouble or makes a little effort, you're going to fall over."
After hearing this for many years, I couldn’t help but laugh:
"Leader, you don't think I'm so stupid, do you?"
Hearing this, Yu Guangyuan snorted coldly.
Although he didn't respond, his expression said everything: I'll give you a chance to explain!
"Whether it's Huimin Supermarket or Speedy Logistics, there are two shareholders, one is Rolls-Royce Group, and the other is Bald Eagle's Mirais Group."
"Although the shareholding of these two groups is not very high, they can solve all my troubles in Europe and the United States."
Hearing his confident words, Yu Guangyuan couldn't help but said:
"Why? And aren't you afraid of making wedding clothes for others?"
Many years shook his head, but explained no more.
Because the explanation is almost done here, if I continue to explain it, I still won’t believe it if I don’t believe it.
Now he only needs to confirm whether the mainland will help solve some suppliers and make money with the mainland.
If he doesn't want to, that's okay, he has nothing to lose anyway.
Mirais Group has been one of Bald Eagle's vests for many years. It was acquired along with the acquisition of PolyGram Group a few years ago.
The main thing is to have white gloves to facilitate some subsequent operations.
For example, this time is an attempt to slowly grow and expand over many years.
"Okay, if you're not afraid, then of course we won't be afraid either."
Yu Guangyuan suddenly laughed, then took out the message above and asked Duan Nian to check it.
Since the above reply, I have made my request clear after many years.
All products must be of high quality and quantity, and no information from the mainland can be seen on the products themselves.
It is best to refer to the production process here on Hong Kong Island. The engraved handwriting is all in Traditional Chinese.
Of course, the purchase price will also be based on the [-]% discount on Hong Kong Island.
"Is it really [-]% off?"
Yu Guangyuan was overjoyed. The price was not low. The mainland would definitely make a lot of money.
For example, the cost of a piece of clothing on Hong Kong Island is [-] Hong Kong dollars. If calculated based on the [-]% discount, it is [-] cents in Hong Kong dollars.
However, the price of ready-made clothes in the mainland is less than one yuan, let alone the cost.
Therefore, this price can definitely earn a lot of foreign exchange for the mainland.
Many years smiled slightly:
"Leader, this is the benefit I give to the mainland. However, this price is unlikely to fluctuate much for a long time."
"And, judging from the current situation, Hong Kong Island's economy is developing rapidly, and the manufacturing industry in the future will definitely gradually shift to the mainland."
Although Yu Guangyuan is aware of the many New Year-painted cakes, this cake is fragrant, sweet and very delicious.
After leaving China Resources, I felt relaxed for many years.
The preparations have been arranged, and the next step is to go to the Bald Eagle and race around.
In the next half month, many factories on Hong Kong Island were either acquired or invested in shares, and almost all of them were replaced.
Most members of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce have participated in the investment in upstream suppliers of Huimin Supermarket.
Some people choose slippers, some choose baby clothes, some choose toothpicks, etc. In short, they are all common daily necessities in supermarkets.
But no matter what, these suppliers have signed reciprocal contracts with Huimin Supermarket.
The contract stipulates their respective obligations and rights, and the price is almost certain to be within a certain range.
Of course, if prices rise, prices will fluctuate with the market.
There has been basically no investment in these relatively common daily necessities for many years.
The factories he invested in were almost exclusively focused on killer products such as sanitary napkins, wipes, and instant noodles.
Few people may notice these products and feel that they are useless.
Only after many years do I know how powerful they are.
For example, paper towel factories have invested in more than ten factories in mainland China, Medan and other places in Southeast Asia over the years to fully produce paper towels.
Yes, there is no paper towel factory on Hong Kong Island itself, at most it is a packaging factory.
Because there are almost no raw materials for paper towels in Hong Kong Island, we can only rely on places like the mainland or Medan.
Especially Medan, this place is located on the equator and is extremely rich in forest resources.
When a paper towel factory with many years of experience arrives in the local area, the local government should not be too enthusiastic.
This not only provides many local jobs, but also drives the upstream logging industry.
As for the destruction of the forest, which will cause great damage to their local environment, this is not within the scope of the local government's consideration at all.
First, the local forest resources are so rich that there is no fear of being destroyed.
Second, the local people cannot cut it down. The trees in the forest grow freely and cannot bring any benefits to the local people.
On the other hand, now, with the establishment of paper towel factories, these resources can be effectively utilized.
Although the price of wood purchased by paper towel factories is very low.
However, as long as you are willing to give money or provide food and accommodation, this is a very good treatment for the locals.
Some of the raw materials for the production of paper towels are made into paper towels locally in Medan, and some are shipped back to the mainland for production and manufacturing.
These costs are almost negligible for many years.
Paper towels are very, very cheap and cannot be sold for much.
But in Bald Eagle, and even in developed countries such as Europe and the United States, paper towels may seem inexpensive, but the proportion of personal consumption is not very small.
According to incomplete statistics, a Bald Eagle man consumes at least one hundred rolls of paper towels every year, which is equivalent to about [-] kilograms.
Therefore, this market can be said to be very huge.
A large paper factory on the outskirts of Baiyun City. On this day in early October, Yu Guangyuan came here for many years.
"Comrade Xu, up ahead is where we produce paper towels."
Zhang Qingshan, the person in charge of the paper mill, led the way and introduced the factory building.
In addition to the production plant, there are also warehouses and other production workshops.
For many years, I watched and prepared for random inspections.
If there is anything unqualified, it will definitely have to be done again.
But this kind of thing is unlikely to happen.
Because before the production, I have been here once in many years, and all the production requirements for paper towels have been announced in advance.
Even papermaking technology and equipment have been provided for many years.
If Zhang Qingshan and his paper mill couldn't complete the task, they really should buy a piece of tofu and kill them.
"Where are the sanitary napkins? Where are the wet wipes and makeup remover paper?"
We have asked questions one by one over the years and pay great attention to quality.
The raw material for the production of sanitary napkins is actually banana trees. The quality of the sanitary napkins produced by this thing is not bad, and the cost is lower.
Zhang Qingshan accompanied the smiling face and listened and watched uneasily for many years.
It was only after many years that the praise was good that I felt relieved.
During their inspection, the workers in the packaging workshop couldn't help but be speechless when they looked at the sanitary napkins in front of them.
Although more than two months have passed, this group of workers can't help but marvel.
Banana trees can actually be used as raw materials for the production of sanitary napkins?
What the hell are makeup remover sheets?
There are also such soft toilet paper towels, are they tributes?
Workers have no idea where these gadgets will be sold after they are produced.
In short, they just work and do their jobs well.
After returning from Baiyun City, he went to Bald Eagle non-stop for many years to ensure the progress of the renovation of Huimin Supermarket.
From the very beginning, Huimin Supermarket was aggressive, directly enclosing [-] places in eastern cities, including four places in the big city of New York.
In the western region, Huimin Supermarket has not yet taken action.
Because ultra-fast logistics needs to be established first in the eastern cities, and then slowly develop to the west.
What's more, it's not possible to recruit so many personnel at once.
After staying at Bald Eagle for half a month, it was already November when I returned to Hong Kong Island.
Time is so wasted.
"Aren't you a little bit?"
After returning home, I didn't find this child for many years, and I suddenly became curious.
Qin Huairu gave him a look:
"Do you remember that you have a son? He has gone to London to participate in the Mathematical Olympiad competition, and he won't be back for two days."
"Oh, I was so busy that I forgot."
Many Years slapped his forehead in self-deprecation and smiled.
So he planned not to go anywhere for the next week, but to stay at home and spend time with his wife and children.
However, within three days, Qin Huairu couldn't stand him anymore.
"You should go to work. Look at you. There have been too many people coming to you recently. I don't want your investment to go to waste."
Treating your home as an office will naturally arouse Qin Huairu's dissatisfaction.
First, she disturbed the little guy Xu Yi. When she started crying, Qin Huairu was worried that the little guy would disturb his work for many years.
Secondly, there are many people coming and going in the family, which is really not decent.
It made Qin Huairu want to move to the villa at No. 43 Baijia Road for a while.
Speaking of which, after the renovation of the Barker Road villa, the family did not go there very often for many years.
Even the little ones are not used to living there.
I only occasionally go there to stay for a day or two on weekends and then come back.
It's like using Barker Road as a hotel, staying there at night, and running out during the day.
It's different here in Deep Water Bay. The yard is huge and there are many recreational facilities and it's very convenient.
And there are many classmates and friends nearby, and you can invite them to your home to play at any time.
For example, when playing basketball, almost every afternoon, Brother Jing and the others would run to the basketball court to play basketball.
Even Xiaodoubao and the others play badminton, tennis, etc. after studying.
Even occasionally, when Jing Ge'er and the others don't have enough people, Xiaodou Bao and the others would join the team.
"Okay, okay, can't I leave?"
I haven't been angry with Qin Huairu for many years, and I can't get angry anymore.
However, he also knew that he asked for this.
If we didn’t build this Huimin Supermarket, there wouldn’t be so many things happening.
But guarding Qin Huairu all day long will also be disliked.
Didn't he often do this when he was writing novels at home?
If you want to avoid arguing, you will be so quiet when you are alone.
When two people are together, no matter how good the relationship is, no matter how sticky and passionate they are in love, there will always be times when they quarrel.
What's more, the couple has been married for more than ten years. There are definitely no big conflicts, but there are definitely small quarrels, conflicts, etc., and there are quite a few.
For the next period of time, for many years, I worked outside during the day and went home at night.
Of course, I eat three meals a day at home and rarely eat out.
The matter of socializing is entirely up to him.
If he doesn't like it, he won't go.
If Huo Jiandong and the others wanted to get together and chat, they would usually go to each other's house or come to his house.
I rarely eat out at restaurants.
For many years, I have been demanding the quality of vegetables. After I got used to growing my own vegetables and eating them, I was no longer so confident about the ingredients from outside.
Although the vegetables and meat on Hong Kong Island are basically shipped from the mainland, the quality requirements are very high.
However, for many years, I have believed in the ingredients produced at the farm in Tuen Mun.
Time flies by and it’s soon December.
At this time, all daily necessities in the upstream supply chain are basically confirmed.
Quality, quantity, etc., have all been decided.
By the way, those salespeople, logistics drivers, supermarket store managers, etc., these employees are also almost fully trained.
On December [-], all personnel went to Bald Eagle to make final preparations for the opening.
(End of this chapter)
Strange country, seaside villa.
The sun rises again, and a new day has arrived.
The thief incident last night was just a small episode, and it didn't keep them talking about it for many years.
When you go out to play, it’s better to talk about some happy things.
Let those bad things drift away with the wind.
Time flies while catching the sea and enjoying the scenery in the strange country.
Take Lake Wakatipu for example. After many years of climbing over mountains and ridges, they finally got a glimpse of its scenery. It is indeed a unique sight.
It is said that this lake has the reputation of Emerald Lake, and everyone has a good taste.
Although it is August, which is the winter time of the year in this strange country, the scenery is not particularly beautiful, but it has its own flavor.
For many years they stayed nearby for several days before moving on to the next location.
There are really many lakes here in Strange Country, especially beautiful lakes.
After seeing too many beautiful scenery, I suddenly felt that it was just like that.
There are so many surprises on the journey that it becomes dull.
Of course, for Xiaodoubao and the others, no matter what the scenery is, it is always different in their eyes.
Live happily every day, have fun, and don't need to think about studies, medical skills, etc. Such a good life is simply not too enjoyable.
However, as time goes by, the balance of the vacation is running out.
There is no way to recharge, you can only return to Hong Kong Island after it expires and end the trip.
In mid-August, the family returned to Hong Kong Island. Brother Jing immediately cried aggrievedly when he saw everyone.
The kind that bursts into tears and can't stop crying.
"How old are you, and you're still crying?"
It has been funny for many years. I couldn’t help but taste it when I saw the little kid hugging his mother tightly:
"Okay, come down quickly and don't be embarrassed."
Qin Huairu gave him a roll of eyes. She was really jealous of her own son.
She hasn't mentioned that they often let him, the father, carry Xiaodou Bao.
However, she still asked Brother Jing to come down. After all, she had been educating children for many years. As a mother, she couldn't be too protective.
"You know you're wrong, don't you?"
Brother Jing nodded hurriedly now, regret already occupying his heart.
In the past month, he has been studying and exercising under the supervision of four teachers, and he has never been idle for a moment.
Even when his grandpa came to visit him, he only rested for half a day, that's all.
These days are miserable!
"It's good to know that you were wrong. If you are so naughty again in the future, how do you think I will deal with you?"
After saying a harsh word for many years, I started to check my homework.
What he said must be true.
You can't just deal with it casually or skip the assessment at all after the little guy has been studying for so long.
If this is the case, then the significance of this punishment will be greatly reduced.
Brother Jing did not relax at all and quickly accepted his father's assessment.
Through the assessment, it has been confirmed over many years that this child is very hardworking.
If it weren't for being too naughty, it wouldn't be like this.
"Okay, it's not bad. Keep it up from now on and don't be stupid again, do you hear me?"
"Yeah, I heard it." Brother Jing was already scared, and now he asked cautiously: "Dad, can I go out and play ball with Big Brother and the others?"
"Go."
After getting the permission, Brother Jing ran away in a hurry, disappearing like a rabbit.
Qin Huairu chuckled:
"Look at you, you scared the child so much that he will probably look like a quail in the future."
"Xiao Ru, do you believe it or not, within half a year, he will immediately return to his original self?"
"I don't believe it!" Qin Huairu felt that her child must be a good child who can correct his mistakes.
However, for many years, I have believed that the country is easy to change but the nature is hard to change.
Some children are just like this. If they are not whipped often, it is really impossible to make them correct themselves.
"Then let's take a look."
After many years of laughter, I stopped talking to him about this matter.
Anyway, nothing will come out of the conversation, so just wait.
Of course, this also reminded him for many years that he should pay more attention to the physical and mental health of his children.
You can't just let it go. Occasionally, you should also pull the reins.
Otherwise, something like Brother Jing might happen.
In the blink of an eye, time has quickly entered September.
The little one has entered middle school, and his third sister Bai Doufu is still in the sixth grade.
The reason is also very simple. Bai Doufu’s talents are all focused on writing and singing, which involves a lot of experience.
So she could only go to sixth grade step by step instead of skipping to middle school.
On the other hand, the little one is different. He has a lot of time and has completely studied the middle school textbooks on his own.
If he hadn't been too young, he would have taken the college entrance examination.
Interestingly, not long after school started in September, the little boy was discovered by his teacher, who hoped that he could participate in some Mathematical Olympiad competition.
"What? Mathematical Olympiad competition?"
On this day, after the little boy came home from school, he relayed what his teacher said, which immediately made many years of people exclaim.
"Yes, Dad, what's wrong?"
The little boy asked in surprise. He thought his father's reaction was so strange.
Bai Doufu and the others also looked at him with surprise and curiosity, because they didn't know what a Mathematical Olympiad was.
Many years took a deep breath and said:
"I know you are good at math, but I didn't expect you to be so good. Since your teacher asked you to participate in the Mathematical Olympiad, then you should participate well. From now on, our family will also have a scientist."
"Little one, you have to remember one thing. If you are talented in mathematics, then work hard to show it."
"The golden age of many scientists starts from the age of seventeen or eighteen and ends before the age of 30. This is the best age for them to complete many great mathematical problems or inventions."
"You are ten years old now, and you have shown extraordinary talent in mathematics since you were a child. In this case, then you should continue to work hard, you know?"
When he said this, the atmosphere in the living room instantly changed.
Qin Huairu was very excited. Will his son become a scientist?
Bai Doufu was also very happy for her brother. Finally, she was no longer the only genius in the family.
Being a genius is actually very stressful.
Because you have high expectations, if you don't meet the expectations, you will easily receive indifferent looks from the people around you.
After getting used to being admired by the stars, it is actually difficult to return to a normal life.
But while returning to a dull life without so much pressure, on the other hand, there are anxious days of enjoying cheers but being stressed out. Only those who have experienced it will understand this kind of torment.
The little one nodded seriously, "Dad, I know, I will work hard."
Many Years patted his shoulder and said:
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. You still need to live according to normal living habits in the future."
"You have only half-stepped into the door of scientific research now. If you want to achieve a great career in the future, or even make a name for yourself in history, you must have a healthy body. Do you understand?"
"Well, Dad, I know. I also read medical books. I will always keep what you said in mind."
Seeing the child's answer like this, I was very happy for many years.
Then he didn't forget to give a few words to Brother Jing and Feng Huolun, asking them to learn more from their elder brother.
The Mathematical Olympiad competition suddenly broke into everyone's lives.
As the little boy joined the Mathematical Olympiad class at St. Paul's Middle School, from time to time he would reveal some news about the Mathematical Olympiad class and the questions while having dinner with everyone, which immediately made everyone exclaim.
Qin Huairu said she couldn't understand, and the two senior sisters Xiaodou Bao and Xiao Tuanzi could only understand a little bit.
But if you let them do it, it will be very difficult.
The topics that the middle school Mathematical Olympiad class trains on every day are very different, and they are not the same as the knowledge in ordinary middle school textbooks.
The problem-solving ideas and techniques are completely different.
Even on this day, the little boy said that he was reading college books.
Hearing this, Brother Jing and the other children all looked at him with admiration.
"Dad, these are completely ghost drawings. I can't understand them. Dad, can you understand them?"
When the little one went to school, the exercises he had left at home were dug out by Hot Wheels.
After a few glances, he expressed that he couldn't learn it anymore.
"Of course I can understand it. Come on, come on, you guys too, and I'll explain it to you."
After years of laughing and laughing, he also became somewhat interested in studying mathematics with his eldest son.
By the way, let's see if we can inspire the two children, Brother Jing and Hot Wheels.
But it's obvious that it can't be carried away.
Time flies, and Xu Yi's first birthday party soon arrives.
Originally, we didn't plan to hold any birthday party for our children for many years, but Barter and the others said they wanted to get together, so they decided to get together by the way.
Good guys, people like Huo Jiandong and Huang Jiacheng didn't know where they heard the news, and they also called one after another, saying that they would definitely arrive that day.
Got it!
Then quickly notify Li Jinlian and the others, as well as the Tuen Mun farm, to quickly transport more ingredients.
There are chickens, ducks, geese, cattle, sheep, pigs and other poultry on the farm, and there are plenty of days for breeding.
Especially for free-range chickens, many are roosters and hens that are one year or even more than two years old.
This kind of chicken needs to be stewed very well so that the chicken feet can be bitten. Otherwise, it will be very difficult.
After all, the chicken feet that have been raised for more than a year are very, very hard. If they are simply stewed, you can't even think about chewing them.
It must be simmered in a pressure cooker for more than half an hour to taste delicious.
When guests like Huo Jiandong arrived, the aroma of mushroom stewed chicken was already filling the air.
It was obviously just a gathering of ordinary friends, but now it has changed drastically, and it has turned into Xu Yi's first birthday party.
Huang Jiacheng and the others all sent gifts. I have been speechless for many years. There are so many longevity locks and bracelets. How long will this child wear them?
Twenty longevity locks alone were sent. Counting the twelve from last year's full moon wine, there were already 32.
Needless to say, there are bracelets ranging from small to large, with gold, silver, jade and other different materials, totaling more than a hundred.
"No, Brother Dong, is this a bracelet too?"
Many years ago, pointing to the jade bracelet that was obviously worn by an adult, he asked somewhat speechlessly.
Huo Jiandong smiled happily, "I don't know either. My family bought this for me. Let me ask her?"
Lu Yanni was laughing and chatting with the ladies. Why did she call over?
This is quite interesting. It seems to be a bracelet bought for Xu Yi to wear as an adult.
Ugh!
A perfect debt of gratitude!
Forget it, pay more attention in the future. When someone has a baby, gets married or other important events, send them there as soon as possible.
Of course, if you have enough money for many years, you can just buy it when the time comes.
However, you can't go to the jewelry store named by Chow Tai Fook and others to purchase in person, otherwise you will easily be exempted from the order.
As for Zheng Zongyuan's jewelry store, I have not wanted to have anything to do with this person for many years.
This guy, at the beginning of this year, had already gone to Bald Eagle to copy the operating model of FamilyMart convenience stores.
I have been to Bald Eagle several times over the years and paid attention to it. It is developing quite well.
But it seems that there are some problems, such as the logistics is not timely and the price is relatively high.
I just don’t know what the profit margin is.
After the banquet, Bao Yugang and Huo Jiandong were left to drink tea together.
The name is to drink tea, but in fact it is just to talk about something.
"Brother Gang, how is the shipping business of your Global Shipping Group going lately?"
After hearing this sentence for many years, Bao Yugang immediately realized the opportunity for cooperation.
Generally speaking, I don’t like to talk about business matters for many years.
However, if he takes the initiative to talk about this topic, it means that there is a possibility of cooperation, and he has probably investigated it clearly.
Therefore, Bao Yugang just answered truthfully.
From its inception in the 50s to the present, Pao Yugang's global shipping career has already entered its peak.
Even if there are no accidents, in a few years, he will be able to firmly occupy the top spot among the world's seven major shipping kings.
Hong Kong Island has such a big shipping king. It can also be seen from this that the Hong Kong Island economy has developed at an astonishing speed in the past ten years.
Many years ago pointed at Yang Jun and Wu Hao, then pointed at Battelle, and continued:
"It's like this. Next, our brothers will set up a shipping company. I hope Brother Gang, your Global Shipping Group will also participate in it."
It's very simple. In the next few years, we will engage in global shipping, mainly transporting supermarket goods.
Such as paper towels, seafood, clothes, daily necessities, etc., just for one thing, that is to fully attack the bald eagle market.
Therefore, it is very important to establish your own global shipping routes.
He would not place his hopes on Bao Yugang.
Businessmen have always been big on profits, so they had to find a way for many years.
The purpose of bringing Bao Yugang in was not to misunderstand the other party, but also to bring him into this interest chain, making full use of his expertise to protect the supermarket's logistics and shipping lines.
When Huo Jiandong heard this, his blood was boiling and he couldn't help but said:
"Many years, what about me?"
Naturally, he very much hopes to participate, because the benefits here are definitely not small.
"Brother Dong, we'll talk about this later."
Nuan Nian smiled slightly and signaled the other party to be calm.
"Okay, okay, I'm not in a hurry, you continue, you continue." Huo Jiandong suddenly felt good and said with a smile.
Bao Yugang thought for a while and then agreed.
He has no reason not to agree to the proposal for many years. This is a matter of mutual benefit.
However, he may not have that much cash anymore, so it seems he will have to find a loan from HSBC Bank.
As a businessman who started his business with loans, Bao Yugang still has a great gambling habit.
From the beginning, he took out a loan from HSBC Bank and paid interest to the bank. He himself used the money to purchase large ships and then leased the ships to those in Tokyo.
It can be said that this is something that benefits all parties.
Nowadays, as your business is getting bigger and bigger, you have to consider going ashore.
Seeing that Bao Yugang agreed, it took many years for him to chat with Huo Jiandong about the supermarket.
"Brother Dong, this time I plan to enter the European and American retail industry. If you have ideas, you can participate."
"Is it a FamilyMart convenience store?"
Huo Jiandong suddenly showed an expression of disbelief, "Are you willing to release your shares?"
“It’s not a FamilyMart, it’s a supermarket.”
After years of laughing, both Huo Jiandong and Bao Yugang were confused.
Although supermarkets are also in the retail industry, they are obviously not as good as FamilyMart convenience stores, right?
Nowadays, in most parts of East and Southeast Asia, the FamilyMart convenience store model is developing rapidly.
It stands to reason that if we want to develop in Europe and the United States at this time, FamilyMart convenience stores must be the first to take the lead.
But what the hell is this supermarket?
Is it a raw seafood supermarket?
Not only were they confused, but Battelle, Yang Jun and others were also confused.
"That's right. European and American countries are very different from East Asia or Southeast Asia."
Large supermarkets are the industry with more development potential, not convenience stores.
Of course, FamilyMart convenience stores will also enter European and American countries, but they will not be the main force.
Shengmeng Seafood Supermarket is merged into a new supermarket, adopting a supermarket model of small profits but quick turnover, and establishing a strong and complete logistics system.
The name of the new supermarket is Huimin Supermarket, which is more down-to-earth.
However, the investment in Huimin Supermarket will be very large. Bald Eagle Continent alone will need to establish several logistics centers, as well as two transportation lines, including sea transportation and air express transportation.
Therefore, the scale of investment will be very large.
"Brother Dong, didn't you invest in an airline before? Now the opportunity has come, air cargo logistics!"
After hearing these words for many years, Huo Jiandong was not happy, but worried:
"What products require air express delivery? And the cost of air express delivery is very high. Aren't you afraid that all the profits from the supermarket will be given to the airlines?"
Today’s aviation kerosene, passenger aircraft, etc. are all very expensive.
After entering the 70s, oil prices have begun to grow slowly. Especially after [-], oil prices will definitely usher in a surge.
And it has insisted on operating a low-cost supermarket for many years. As a result, the profit margin must be very low.
How can supermarkets with low profits pay for shipping costs?
You can't invest so much money to open a supermarket and end up using it all to pay for freight and working for nothing, right?
"Brother Dong, you may not know much about the high-end catering industry, and you may be skeptical about the logistics system and the profitability of cheap supermarkets, but believe me, I am not a random person."
After many years of laughter, he didn't mean to show off, but he had no way to say it now.
Air freight is definitely a must. For some top-notch ingredients, in order to ensure their freshness, air freight is the most cost-effective option.
A cheap supermarket does not mean that all the products in it are very cheap.Besides, is the price of oil at [-] US dollars a barrel very expensive?
In fact, it’s just so-so.
He continued to elaborate on his views over the next many years.
He talked about Huimin Supermarket’s investment philosophy, development, etc.
This is much more useful than taking out the plan directly.
Because during this period, most people still don’t like to read plans.
What's more, the people who came to the scene were all old friends, and during the chat, the matter was decided.
The investment amount of more than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars almost scared Huo Jiandong and others.
Such a huge sum of money should be used to build a supermarket?
Is it too extravagant?
However, I have learned over the years that this is necessary.
What's more, Huimin Supermarket is not just Huimin Supermarket. The logistics system alone is a huge investment.
The logistics system requires a lot of money, such as building a large warehouse, purchasing refrigerators, transport vehicles, semi-trailers, small transport vehicles, etc. These are all money.
The second is the expenditure on personnel wages. This part is relatively simple. Drivers are recruited directly from Hong Kong Island.
Drivers who have been able to drive normally on Hong Kong Island for more than a year without any traffic accidents will have absolutely no problem going to Bald Eagle.
After a simple calculation, an investment of 20 billion Hong Kong dollars is still much?
It is definitely not enough, and even more funds will need to be invested later.
Of course, this depends on the competitor on the Bald Eagle side.
If the competitors over there are too weak, they will definitely continue to increase investment in many years to occupy the market at a faster speed.
On the contrary, then proceed steadily, spend time with the other party first, and then slowly develop when you have money.
"By the way, in addition to Huimin Supermarket, Trans Asia Shipping and Extreme Logistics, upstream clothing, paper towels, daily necessities, etc., Brother Dong, Brother Gang. Take a look at which industries you want to choose as the upstream supply of our Huimin Supermarket. Merchant?"
After a pause, he went on to say:
"This is one of the keys that determines whether our Huimin Supermarket can beat the local Bald Eagle company."
"We have a cheap labor market on Hong Kong Island, and the cost of the products we produce will be far lower than that of our Bald Eagle counterparts."
"Even if the logistics cost is increased, it won't be too much."
"Of course, if you want to invest in these upstream industrial chains, then quality and quantity are the key. Otherwise, you will have to withdraw from the supplier list."
For many daily products in supermarkets, it is definitely not possible to purchase them directly from Bald Eagle.
Because even if you purchase in bulk, the expensive labor costs on the Bald Eagle side will be directly flat on the goods.
For example, a piece of clothing costs about three dollars to produce in Bald Eagle, but what about in Hong Kong Island?It's only one and five Hong Kong dollars to hold on.
One U.S. dollar is equal to five Hong Kong dollars and eight cents. According to this exchange rate, three U.S. dollars is equal to 17 Hong Kong dollars and four cents.
So if a piece of clothing is transported from Hong Kong Island to Bald Eagle directly by sea, it will cost only one Hong Kong dollar, and its cost is only two and a half Hong Kong dollars.
Compared with the local Bald Eagle product priced at HK$17 and [-] cents, there is not much of a difference.
In addition to these advantages, for many years I have naturally hoped that Hong Kong Island's manufacturing industry could reach a higher level.
Moreover, as the manufacturing industry on Hong Kong Island develops, these industries can be gradually transferred to the mainland in the future, and even now it is possible to invest and build factories in the mainland.
Of course, Huo Jiandong is probably not qualified to invest and build factories in the mainland now.
Take it step by step, go slowly, time will tell.
Because too much information was released, Huo Jiandong and others were overwhelmed.
So it means it needs to be considered for a day or two, but the investment is certain.
For them, whether it is upstream supply chain factories, Huimin supermarkets, or high-speed logistics, they are extremely profitable projects.
However, my strength is a bit weak, so it doesn’t mean that I can eat whatever I want.
By the time Huo Jiandong and the others left, it was already 11:30 pm.
Qin Huairu had already fallen asleep with her child. When she touched the pillow on the pillow, it was a familiar smell. She couldn't help but muttered: Why is it so late?
"Well, there were a lot of things, so it was a little late."
After many years of talking, he was about to kiss her, but found that she was actually fast asleep.
I couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that it was quite late tonight.
In the next few days and many years, I was busy with the Huimin supermarket system.
Recruitment comes first, training comes second, and product selection comes next.
There are so many things to do, and they can’t all be done in one or two days.
Taking advantage of this time, I went to talk to Yu Guangyuan of China Resources Company several times with my plan in hand for many years.
"Leader, what does the above say?"
"It says you are too brave. How can you be sure that your plan will make a lot of money?"
Yu Guangyuan pointed it out angrily and said:
"And your plan is too risky. You have to invest it yourself. Although there are Chinese investors like Bao Yugang and others, Huo Jiandong..."
"As soon as the bald eagle makes trouble or makes a little effort, you're going to fall over."
After hearing this for many years, I couldn’t help but laugh:
"Leader, you don't think I'm so stupid, do you?"
Hearing this, Yu Guangyuan snorted coldly.
Although he didn't respond, his expression said everything: I'll give you a chance to explain!
"Whether it's Huimin Supermarket or Speedy Logistics, there are two shareholders, one is Rolls-Royce Group, and the other is Bald Eagle's Mirais Group."
"Although the shareholding of these two groups is not very high, they can solve all my troubles in Europe and the United States."
Hearing his confident words, Yu Guangyuan couldn't help but said:
"Why? And aren't you afraid of making wedding clothes for others?"
Many years shook his head, but explained no more.
Because the explanation is almost done here, if I continue to explain it, I still won’t believe it if I don’t believe it.
Now he only needs to confirm whether the mainland will help solve some suppliers and make money with the mainland.
If he doesn't want to, that's okay, he has nothing to lose anyway.
Mirais Group has been one of Bald Eagle's vests for many years. It was acquired along with the acquisition of PolyGram Group a few years ago.
The main thing is to have white gloves to facilitate some subsequent operations.
For example, this time is an attempt to slowly grow and expand over many years.
"Okay, if you're not afraid, then of course we won't be afraid either."
Yu Guangyuan suddenly laughed, then took out the message above and asked Duan Nian to check it.
Since the above reply, I have made my request clear after many years.
All products must be of high quality and quantity, and no information from the mainland can be seen on the products themselves.
It is best to refer to the production process here on Hong Kong Island. The engraved handwriting is all in Traditional Chinese.
Of course, the purchase price will also be based on the [-]% discount on Hong Kong Island.
"Is it really [-]% off?"
Yu Guangyuan was overjoyed. The price was not low. The mainland would definitely make a lot of money.
For example, the cost of a piece of clothing on Hong Kong Island is [-] Hong Kong dollars. If calculated based on the [-]% discount, it is [-] cents in Hong Kong dollars.
However, the price of ready-made clothes in the mainland is less than one yuan, let alone the cost.
Therefore, this price can definitely earn a lot of foreign exchange for the mainland.
Many years smiled slightly:
"Leader, this is the benefit I give to the mainland. However, this price is unlikely to fluctuate much for a long time."
"And, judging from the current situation, Hong Kong Island's economy is developing rapidly, and the manufacturing industry in the future will definitely gradually shift to the mainland."
Although Yu Guangyuan is aware of the many New Year-painted cakes, this cake is fragrant, sweet and very delicious.
After leaving China Resources, I felt relaxed for many years.
The preparations have been arranged, and the next step is to go to the Bald Eagle and race around.
In the next half month, many factories on Hong Kong Island were either acquired or invested in shares, and almost all of them were replaced.
Most members of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce have participated in the investment in upstream suppliers of Huimin Supermarket.
Some people choose slippers, some choose baby clothes, some choose toothpicks, etc. In short, they are all common daily necessities in supermarkets.
But no matter what, these suppliers have signed reciprocal contracts with Huimin Supermarket.
The contract stipulates their respective obligations and rights, and the price is almost certain to be within a certain range.
Of course, if prices rise, prices will fluctuate with the market.
There has been basically no investment in these relatively common daily necessities for many years.
The factories he invested in were almost exclusively focused on killer products such as sanitary napkins, wipes, and instant noodles.
Few people may notice these products and feel that they are useless.
Only after many years do I know how powerful they are.
For example, paper towel factories have invested in more than ten factories in mainland China, Medan and other places in Southeast Asia over the years to fully produce paper towels.
Yes, there is no paper towel factory on Hong Kong Island itself, at most it is a packaging factory.
Because there are almost no raw materials for paper towels in Hong Kong Island, we can only rely on places like the mainland or Medan.
Especially Medan, this place is located on the equator and is extremely rich in forest resources.
When a paper towel factory with many years of experience arrives in the local area, the local government should not be too enthusiastic.
This not only provides many local jobs, but also drives the upstream logging industry.
As for the destruction of the forest, which will cause great damage to their local environment, this is not within the scope of the local government's consideration at all.
First, the local forest resources are so rich that there is no fear of being destroyed.
Second, the local people cannot cut it down. The trees in the forest grow freely and cannot bring any benefits to the local people.
On the other hand, now, with the establishment of paper towel factories, these resources can be effectively utilized.
Although the price of wood purchased by paper towel factories is very low.
However, as long as you are willing to give money or provide food and accommodation, this is a very good treatment for the locals.
Some of the raw materials for the production of paper towels are made into paper towels locally in Medan, and some are shipped back to the mainland for production and manufacturing.
These costs are almost negligible for many years.
Paper towels are very, very cheap and cannot be sold for much.
But in Bald Eagle, and even in developed countries such as Europe and the United States, paper towels may seem inexpensive, but the proportion of personal consumption is not very small.
According to incomplete statistics, a Bald Eagle man consumes at least one hundred rolls of paper towels every year, which is equivalent to about [-] kilograms.
Therefore, this market can be said to be very huge.
A large paper factory on the outskirts of Baiyun City. On this day in early October, Yu Guangyuan came here for many years.
"Comrade Xu, up ahead is where we produce paper towels."
Zhang Qingshan, the person in charge of the paper mill, led the way and introduced the factory building.
In addition to the production plant, there are also warehouses and other production workshops.
For many years, I watched and prepared for random inspections.
If there is anything unqualified, it will definitely have to be done again.
But this kind of thing is unlikely to happen.
Because before the production, I have been here once in many years, and all the production requirements for paper towels have been announced in advance.
Even papermaking technology and equipment have been provided for many years.
If Zhang Qingshan and his paper mill couldn't complete the task, they really should buy a piece of tofu and kill them.
"Where are the sanitary napkins? Where are the wet wipes and makeup remover paper?"
We have asked questions one by one over the years and pay great attention to quality.
The raw material for the production of sanitary napkins is actually banana trees. The quality of the sanitary napkins produced by this thing is not bad, and the cost is lower.
Zhang Qingshan accompanied the smiling face and listened and watched uneasily for many years.
It was only after many years that the praise was good that I felt relieved.
During their inspection, the workers in the packaging workshop couldn't help but be speechless when they looked at the sanitary napkins in front of them.
Although more than two months have passed, this group of workers can't help but marvel.
Banana trees can actually be used as raw materials for the production of sanitary napkins?
What the hell are makeup remover sheets?
There are also such soft toilet paper towels, are they tributes?
Workers have no idea where these gadgets will be sold after they are produced.
In short, they just work and do their jobs well.
After returning from Baiyun City, he went to Bald Eagle non-stop for many years to ensure the progress of the renovation of Huimin Supermarket.
From the very beginning, Huimin Supermarket was aggressive, directly enclosing [-] places in eastern cities, including four places in the big city of New York.
In the western region, Huimin Supermarket has not yet taken action.
Because ultra-fast logistics needs to be established first in the eastern cities, and then slowly develop to the west.
What's more, it's not possible to recruit so many personnel at once.
After staying at Bald Eagle for half a month, it was already November when I returned to Hong Kong Island.
Time is so wasted.
"Aren't you a little bit?"
After returning home, I didn't find this child for many years, and I suddenly became curious.
Qin Huairu gave him a look:
"Do you remember that you have a son? He has gone to London to participate in the Mathematical Olympiad competition, and he won't be back for two days."
"Oh, I was so busy that I forgot."
Many Years slapped his forehead in self-deprecation and smiled.
So he planned not to go anywhere for the next week, but to stay at home and spend time with his wife and children.
However, within three days, Qin Huairu couldn't stand him anymore.
"You should go to work. Look at you. There have been too many people coming to you recently. I don't want your investment to go to waste."
Treating your home as an office will naturally arouse Qin Huairu's dissatisfaction.
First, she disturbed the little guy Xu Yi. When she started crying, Qin Huairu was worried that the little guy would disturb his work for many years.
Secondly, there are many people coming and going in the family, which is really not decent.
It made Qin Huairu want to move to the villa at No. 43 Baijia Road for a while.
Speaking of which, after the renovation of the Barker Road villa, the family did not go there very often for many years.
Even the little ones are not used to living there.
I only occasionally go there to stay for a day or two on weekends and then come back.
It's like using Barker Road as a hotel, staying there at night, and running out during the day.
It's different here in Deep Water Bay. The yard is huge and there are many recreational facilities and it's very convenient.
And there are many classmates and friends nearby, and you can invite them to your home to play at any time.
For example, when playing basketball, almost every afternoon, Brother Jing and the others would run to the basketball court to play basketball.
Even Xiaodoubao and the others play badminton, tennis, etc. after studying.
Even occasionally, when Jing Ge'er and the others don't have enough people, Xiaodou Bao and the others would join the team.
"Okay, okay, can't I leave?"
I haven't been angry with Qin Huairu for many years, and I can't get angry anymore.
However, he also knew that he asked for this.
If we didn’t build this Huimin Supermarket, there wouldn’t be so many things happening.
But guarding Qin Huairu all day long will also be disliked.
Didn't he often do this when he was writing novels at home?
If you want to avoid arguing, you will be so quiet when you are alone.
When two people are together, no matter how good the relationship is, no matter how sticky and passionate they are in love, there will always be times when they quarrel.
What's more, the couple has been married for more than ten years. There are definitely no big conflicts, but there are definitely small quarrels, conflicts, etc., and there are quite a few.
For the next period of time, for many years, I worked outside during the day and went home at night.
Of course, I eat three meals a day at home and rarely eat out.
The matter of socializing is entirely up to him.
If he doesn't like it, he won't go.
If Huo Jiandong and the others wanted to get together and chat, they would usually go to each other's house or come to his house.
I rarely eat out at restaurants.
For many years, I have been demanding the quality of vegetables. After I got used to growing my own vegetables and eating them, I was no longer so confident about the ingredients from outside.
Although the vegetables and meat on Hong Kong Island are basically shipped from the mainland, the quality requirements are very high.
However, for many years, I have believed in the ingredients produced at the farm in Tuen Mun.
Time flies by and it’s soon December.
At this time, all daily necessities in the upstream supply chain are basically confirmed.
Quality, quantity, etc., have all been decided.
By the way, those salespeople, logistics drivers, supermarket store managers, etc., these employees are also almost fully trained.
On December [-], all personnel went to Bald Eagle to make final preparations for the opening.
