Reborn in the red age

Chapter 221: I am in Hong Kong, go to a nightclub to see the world

Not long after Accountant Sun was arrested, it was time for the school's winter vacation this year.

On the second day of the winter vacation, Li Qingfeng drove Hu Jiabao's bedding and clothes to the hospital dormitory, and he hurriedly took a plane to Xiangjiang.

Taking advantage of the fact that there is still some time before the Chinese New Year, Li Qingfeng needs to go to Xiangjiang to deal with the company's affairs. The plan is to end this trip to Xiangjiang within a week.

After the development in the second half of the year, Lemon Technology has expanded again, and the office space on the upper and lower floors has been fully occupied. This is the result of sending some people to work in the Japanese and American branches. Otherwise, it will be even worse. Crowded.

Fang Wanzhen, who had already received the news, prepared the information on the company's situation in the past six months early and came to the airport to pick her up with the information. On the way to the company, Li Qingfeng briefly read through it and had a rough idea of ​​the company's situation. .

The company was still developing well in the second half of 82. Although the competition with IBM caused the company's profits in the computer field to drop significantly, the results were good. Lemon PC's market share in the Asian market was stable and did not fall below %. .

Compared with the first half of the year, Lemon PC's market share in the Asian market has increased slightly, reaching 38%.

Among them, Lemon PC is the dominant player in Xiangjiang, Baodao and South Korea. In Japan, the only developed country in Asia, Lemon PC also occupies a considerable market share.

IBM's sales in Asia have reached a trough, and IBM has basically been sentenced to death in Asia.

In the software field where Lemon Technology started, Excel and Word, two revolutionary softwares, have become even more popular internationally because they have no rivals for the time being.

The game "Block Blocks" has been successfully distributed around the world with the help of Lemon Technology's software channels. However, the distribution channels currently only have two forms: game floppy disks and game cartridges, and it has not yet entered the arcade market.

It is worth mentioning that because of the competition in the Asian market, IBM and Lemon Technology have become enemies. In the United States, IBM's home base, IBM is racking its brains to stumble Lemon Technology.

Not only did they try their best to prevent Lemon PC from entering the American market, but they also tried every means to lobby the American government to ban the sales of Word and Excel software in the United States.

Fortunately, Qingfeng Li used 10% of his shares to pay protection fees to Stanford in advance. If the Stanford Board of Directors hadn't put in a lot of effort, IBM might have succeeded in lobbying.

Currently, Lemon PC is in a stalemate when it enters the U.S. market. IBM is determined not to let Lemon PC enter.

Regarding the current stalemate, Qingfeng Li had no choice but to wait and see Stanford's next plan.

When he came to the company, before the meeting, Li Qingfeng asked Fang Wanzhen next to him about the introduction of production lines in Japan and the United States: "How do you know about the production equipment of display screens and handheld consoles? Is there a confirmed manufacturer? "

"The production equipment has been determined. The equipment and technology introduced are from the United States. We placed an order with the manufacturer two months ago and will deliver the goods in the middle of next year," Fang Wanzhen said with a smile.

Qingfeng Li nodded to express his understanding, and then asked about the factory: "How is the construction of the factory in the special zone? Has the foundation been laid?"

"Not yet. We have not yet reached an agreement with the construction companies in the mainland. Things are deadlocked." Fang Wanzhen said helplessly as she had a headache when she mentioned the matter of building a factory in the special zone.

"No agreement? What do you mean?"

"In terms of funding, the construction company thought that we were foreign investors and asked us to use US dollars or Hong Kong dollars to pay for the cost of building the factory. We wanted to use RMB to pay, but the other party did not agree, so it was delayed and we have never reached an agreement."

Hearing what Fang Wanzhen said, Li Qingfeng frowned. The leader of this construction company really had ideas, skills, and tricks in order to earn foreign exchange.

We really can’t say anything about their construction company in this matter. You are a foreign company investing and building factories in China. There is really nothing wrong with the construction company’s request to collect foreign exchange and it complies with regulations.

"Have you gone to the government to help coordinate?"

"I found it, and the result of the coordination with the help of the SAR government is that the fees paid to the construction company can be paid in RMB, but the construction material fees must be paid in foreign exchange."

Qingfeng Li couldn't help laughing now. This government knows how to play games. If you come to find me, I will take care of it. Anyway, the foreign exchange paid to the construction company will not reach the SAR government's account, so the construction company will be sold directly. , but the money that can actually be put into your account cannot be less.

"Okay, there is no need to offend them. Whether it is building materials or construction fees to the construction company, all are paid in Hong Kong dollars. As for the RMB on the account, it is used to pay wages to the workers and make some land investments in the mainland. "

From now on, he will take root in the Special Administrative Region. Qingfeng Li doesn't want to offend the local government too much. It doesn't cost much to build a factory in China. Just use foreign exchange. It doesn't matter.

After discussing the construction of the factory, the company's year-end meeting soon began. After Qingfeng Li learned in detail about the operation of each department, he highly praised all the company's senior executives. Of course, a generous person like Li would not just give verbal praise, but promise on the spot that he would give everyone a generous year-end bonus, equivalent to one year's salary.

The salaries of the executives were not low. They were given one year's salary as year-end bonus. The company's executives were so happy that they flattered Qingfeng Li on the spot using Mandarin with a thick southern accent. .

Learning Mandarin is not a requirement of Qingfeng Li, but a spontaneous learning by everyone in the company. Even the employees at the bottom are learning to speak Mandarin. Who makes Qingfeng Li unable to understand Cantonese? If he can’t speak Mandarin, he won’t. How to communicate with the big boss.

The big boss only comes twice a year. If you can't communicate with the big boss, the big boss won't remember your name.

The big boss has no impression in his mind, how can he get promotion and salary increase and reach the top of his life?

After the meeting, Li Qingfeng called Manager Zhou, who was in charge of logistics, to the office and asked him to book a private room in a hotel and treat the company's senior executives to dinner in the evening to exchange feelings.

"Okay Chairman, I will make arrangements now. Do you need to arrange anything else after the dinner in the evening?" Director Zhou did not leave directly, bowed slightly and asked if there was a second event tonight.

Qingfeng Li, who was reading the information, moved his hands and looked up at him with a half-smile: "I really don't know much about these fun things. Do you have any recommendations?"

"There are several female celebrities who admire you very much and have always wanted to meet you. If you want to meet them, I can arrange it tonight." Director Zhou said flatteringly with an expression that every man would understand on his face.

At first glance, Qingfeng Li was quite excited, but after thinking about it, he let it go. No matter how young a female star is, she is still a public figure, not to mention that she is a new technological upstart, so it is easy for news to spread.

I am already married and still a school teacher. Xiangjiang is not the United States. In this place, Xiangjiang, I have to pay attention to the influence, so as not to cause trouble in the city.

Qingfeng Li immediately said expressionlessly: "Director Zhou, what's wrong? In addition to your work in the company, you also have a part-time job as a pimp?"

"No, no, I just have a female star who admires you and wants to meet you for tea. There is no other intention." Looking at the expressionless face of the big boss, Manager Zhou immediately thought of the female receptionist who was fired a few months ago. I was shocked, and I quickly started to quibble.

"Humph, it's best not to. Go out and contact the restaurant. I'll just pretend you didn't hear anything this time. I don't want this to happen again."

"Okay, okay, Chairman, I will go out and contact him now." When he heard that the big boss did not fire him, Director Zhou took a long breath, nodded and bowed and slowly exited Qingfeng Li's office.

Director Zhou did a good job in the logistics work. He knew that Li Qingfeng liked northern cuisine, and he didn’t know how he negotiated with the restaurant owner. He even served half a table of Shandong cuisine in Xiyuan Restaurant, a Cantonese restaurant. Qingfeng Li tasted it. After that, the taste of Shandong cuisine is still very authentic.

The atmosphere at the dinner party in the evening was very lively. Those who could be in management positions were all talented people and were very good at speaking and doing things. The atmosphere did not drop throughout the evening.

After the party ended, and after Fang Wanzhen, the only female colleague, left, the group tentatively asked if they wanted to start the next one.

Qingfeng Li was not the kind of person who was a spoiler, so he glanced at Director Zhou who had been serving beside him.

"Chairman, there are three places arranged for the next event, one is a nightclub, one is a karaoke, and the other is a party in the villa over Repulse Bay. Everything has been arranged, and there will be fun and drinks." received Qingfeng Li Manager Zhou, who was responsible for the signal, immediately bent over and walked forward quickly, smiling and talking to Qingfeng Li.

Li Qingfeng admired Director Zhou's point of view very much. In this kind of matter, he considered everything comprehensively.

Qingfeng Li did not make a decision directly, but looked to his senior executives and asked for their opinions.

They are all good people. It doesn't matter where they go for the second game. The main purpose is to build a good relationship with Qingfeng Li. Naturally, they won't ask for a specific place. They just ask one after another, and they can go anywhere.

After thinking about it for a while, Qingfeng Li decided to go to the nightclub to meet him.

The time in Xiangjiang is not short, and I have never been to a place like a nightclub. Since everything has been arranged, I might as well go there and experience it.

Anyway, when we went out to eat this time, in order to prevent some gangsters from bumping into Qingfeng Li, Director Zhou arranged for bodyguards, so there would be no problems if we went out to play.

After Qingfeng Li decided to go to the nightclub, Manager Zhou waved his hand in the distance, and four brand-new Mercedes-Benz W126s drove slowly in front of everyone.

A group of people got into the car and four Mercedes-Benz W126s drove towards Haicheng Nightclub.
