Reborn in the red age

Chapter 300 Xiangjiang Local Communities

It's good to have money. Before the convoy arrived at the Sanatorium and Hospital, the hospital director was already waiting downstairs with a group of leaders.

As soon as the motorcade stopped, the dean personally stepped forward and opened the door, and the service was immediately in place.

The ward reserved by Director Zhou is the most luxurious one in Sanatorium & Hospital. As soon as you enter, you will see a 780-80-square-meter conference room. The interior is decorated with luxurious TVs, sofas, and conference tables. There is also a bedroom in the conference room and a ward. Built-in kitchen, refrigerator, microwave.

Before the real ward, you have to pass through a small reception area and escort a small room before you can reach the real ward.

It has oversized floor-to-ceiling windows, allows for all-day lighting, and has a built-in independent bathroom for patients. What makes Li Qingfeng most satisfied is that this ward is located on the top floor. There is also an independent small sky garden outside, and nurses are on call 24 hours a day.

"This is still a hospital. Five-star hotels are not as luxurious as this ward."

After completing the examination and waiting for their family of three to be the only ones in the ward, Hu Jiabao looked at the ward that was comparable to a five-star hotel suite and was filled with emotion.

This was the first time in Qingfeng Li's life that he had entered such a VVVVIP ward. He nodded in agreement and couldn't help but think of a line from a later movie: There is only one disease in the world, and that is the disease of poverty.

There are still about ten days before the due date. Today I just came here to book the ward. After going through the formalities at the hospital, the family returned the same way.

After sending Hu Jiabao home, Li Qingfeng took a car to the Lemon Company headquarters with Director Zhou.

"What happened ahead?"

The car was driving halfway when it was suddenly stopped by the police. Li Qingfeng looked at the sudden appearance of police officers on the street and curiously asked Director Zhou who was sitting in the passenger seat.

"Maybe something happened up front? I'll go down and ask." Faced with the big boss's inquiry, Director Zhou didn't dare to delay and immediately got out of the car to inquire about the situation.

Soon, Supervisor Zhou, who had asked the police why, returned to the car and said nonchalantly: "Director Li, it's nothing serious. Someone was robbing the gold store in front, and there was a shootout with the police, and the road was blocked."

"."

Seeing the careless expression on Director Zhou's face, Li Qingfeng's mouth twitched. Robbery of a gold store and shootout with the police were two sensational words. How could this guy not care at all?

Seeing Qingfeng Li's expression, the thoughtful Manager Zhou immediately understood and quickly explained: "Director Li, you have been away from the island for a long time and are not aware of the security situation on the island. In recent years, there have been more and more incidents. Big.”

At this point, Director Zhou paused and immediately changed his words: "More and more desperadoes are sneaking into Hong Kong, and the security of the society has declined rapidly. Since the beginning of this year, gold shops have been robbed, robberies and murders have occurred, and gunfights with the police on the streets have begun." It happens more often, and we ordinary people who often stay on the island are used to it."

After hearing Supervisor Zhou's explanation, Li Qingfeng immediately knew what was going on and nodded without further questioning.

The unfinished words in Director Zhou's mouth should be Daquanzai, but he was worried that Qingfeng Li was also from the mainland and did not dare to use the insulting term Daquanzai, so he changed his name to desperado.

Qingfeng Li didn't say anything, sighed deeply, and looked out the window, feeling very complicated.

I have an understanding of Qingfeng Li of the Daquan Gang. Most of its members have risked their lives on the front line. In the past, there were only sporadic robberies in Hong Kong. After being discharged from the army last year, they did not receive any job assignments. Apart from being able to fight, they did not know anything else. Nor will there be some people who have experienced life and death and don’t want to live an ordinary life.

After contacting his comrades who were discharged early, they learned that in Xiangjiang, one can make a fortune by taking one's life instead of one's destiny. As word spread, a large number of veterans came to Xiangjiang to make a fortune.

There is no bottom line when it comes to robbing gold shops, kidnapping rich people, and shooting gangsters. Based on the idea of ​​​​getting a profit and leaving, as long as you can get money, you will do anything.

Soon the road blocked in front was cleared, the police informed them to let them go, and Lemon Company's convoy moved forward slowly.

When passing by the robbed gold store, Qingfeng Li looked at the broken glass, the dark red blood on the ground, and the police car that was hit and dragged to the side of the road. Qingfeng Li shook his head secretly.

Back at Lemon Company, Li Qingfeng began to chat with Fang Wanzhen and other senior executives about the company's development in the past year.

After the release of Intel's 386 processor last year, according to a private alliance agreement between the two parties, Lemon Company released the Windows 386 operating system specifically designed to run on the 3.0 chip four months later.

Because the 386 processor has not yet been widely used in computers, the sales of the operating system that is deeply bundled with the 386 processor are not ideal. However, Qingfeng Li is not in a hurry. The large-scale application of the 386 processor will be a matter of time, and only these two years.

This operating system is equivalent to the later version of Windows 3.2. As for the epoch-making Windows 95, although it can also run on the 386 processor, Qingfeng Li does not plan to use it for the time being.

Anyway, in the field of operating systems, Lemon Company has no rivals for the time being. Just squeeze out the toothpaste slowly. No company will bring out its latest technology at once.

When the market sales are weak, or when competitors are about to catch up, Windows 95 will be used to determine the outcome.

The sales of the company's other software are also good, and it has firmly occupied the top spot in the market. The taillights of the second-placed car can't even be seen.

Since Lemon Company's software and operating system have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and established a strong brand effect on a global scale, they did not invest much in advertising in the first half of this year, saving Lemon Company hundreds of millions of dollars in advertising expenses.

"Director Li, since the Plaza Accord last year, the U.S. dollar has begun to depreciate significantly. There are a large number of U.S. dollars in our company's accounts that have not been arranged for the time being. Do you think we should reduce some of our U.S. dollar holdings and exchange them for Japanese yen or francs, pounds, and marks, which have appreciated in value? After talking about the company's business, Fang Wanzhen brought up the recent depreciation of the U.S. dollar and suggested that Qingfeng Li reduce his holdings of U.S. dollars.

To put it bluntly, the Plaza Accord means that the U.S. government has no money, and the foreign trade deficit is too large. Small Baga, West Germany's high-quality and low-price products are being dumped in large quantities in the domestic market of the old United States. When the old United States thinks about it, it cannot continue like this, and it can't continue like this. If we go on, our country's money will be emptied by these two grandsons.

So the United States and the United States want to devalue the U.S. dollar and appreciate the currencies of Japan and Germany. This will make American exports cheaper and imported products more expensive. After such operations, the trade deficit will be corrected.

The United States just did what they said, pulling together France, England, Little Bagga and West Germany, saying that I want to devalue the U.S. dollar and let the currencies of your four countries appreciate. What do you think?
It just so happens that these four countries also hope that the dollar will depreciate to alleviate the pressure of devaluation of their own currencies.

Among them, Xiaobaga is particularly enthusiastic about the appreciation of the yen. In 85, Xiaobaga had the largest trade surplus in the world, becoming the world's largest creditor country and capital exporting country. Its bank's total international assets ranked first in the world, and its GDP ranked first in the world. second. As a manufacturing country capable of high-tech, automobiles, semiconductors, chips, and precision machinery, the next step is of course to internationalize its currency!
The five countries all had their own small ideas, so they hit it off immediately and gave the green light to the issues discussed in the square meeting. The meeting ended in a harmonious and warm atmosphere.

The finance ministers of the five countries took photos together after signing the Plaza Accord. Among the five, except for Laos and the United States, only the representative of Little Baga was grinning sillyly, thinking that Little Baga was about to occupy the commanding heights of finance and could, like Laos and the United States, take over the country in the future. Leeks from all over the world.

It can only be said that Xiao Baga had a wonderful imagination. At the beginning, he expected that the yen would stop growing as long as it reached 20%. Who knew that the yen would keep rising all the way?

We have no choice but to move the production lines out of the country to places where manpower and material resources are cheaper, such as Southeast Asia and my country.

Then came the property market, and the stock market continued to rise until the bubble burst.

The company's chief marketing officer Lu Ziliang said with a smile: "Yes, Director Li, the Japanese yen has grown rapidly in the past six months, and the company's funds are idle. We can use part of it to establish an investment company. Let’s do some trading in the foreign exchange market.”

Others also echoed, saying that given the size of the company, it is also a relatively large capital in the capital market. Taking advantage of this shareholder chaos, the company's assets may be doubled.

Li Qingfeng has also been slightly concerned about the depreciation of the US dollar during this period, but he has no interest in speculating in foreign exchange and buying long yen.

Whether the Plaza Accord is a conspiracy by the United States or a hit-and-run agreement by Baga for the internationalization of the yen, it is a game played by the capital of big countries.

The water in the Japanese yen foreign exchange market is too deep. The amount of funds of Lemon Company seems to be quite large, but in fact it is nothing in the eyes of giant crocodiles. It is dangerous to invest most of the funds, and it is meaningless to enter with small funds.

In the past, when I was barefoot, I could gamble all my money, but now that I have shoes on, it's better to walk safely.

Faced with the high spirits of the company's senior executives, Li Qingfeng slowly shook his head: "Forget it about the foreign exchange market. The water there is very deep and is not suitable for the size of our company."

"What do you mean?"

"You can spend US$1.5 billion to enter Little Baga Country and invest in the real estate market and stock market in Little Baga Country. The real estate market is mainly in Tokyo, and the stock market is mainly in automobiles and high technology. Semiconductors and chips are not the same. cast"

At this point, Li Qingfeng paused and continued to add: "The other thing is to always pay attention to Xiaobaga's semiconductor chip industry. If they cannot survive and prepare to sell off advanced equipment to the outside world, notify me in time."

With Li Qingfeng's instructions, the company's executives immediately took action, mobilizing funds and contacting the liaison branch of the Baga Country Branch.

After the company executives left, Fang Wanzhen took out another document and handed it to Qingfeng Li for review. She took it and took a look and saw that it was the situation of VCD in Xiangjiang.

Wang Weimin's VCD factory finally settled in Wuxi, and Wuxi was no ambiguity. In order to allow the DVD player factory to start operations as soon as possible and generate profits, a state-owned factory with poor profitability was coordinated and their factory was temporarily lent to Wang. For civilian use in assembly and production.

After the customized accessories and imported laser heads from various factories were gradually put in place, the DVD player factory officially started assembly in May.

In just one month, all the chips produced by Factory 742 in the past half year were used up to assemble 8000 video disc players.

In June, through the recommendation of Lemon Company, we officially entered the sales market in Xiangjiang.

Sales were indeed not very good at the beginning, but as pirated discs entered in large numbers through smuggling ships, sales of video disc players exploded.

Then came the threat of pirated discs from film and television companies with corporate backgrounds.

After Qingfeng Li read this information, he threw it on the table, frowned and said, "How brave, these societies dare to threaten us instead of looking for smugglers of pirated discs."

Although it was indeed Qingfeng Li who ordered the pirated discs to be produced in the mainland, it was not Qingfeng Li who smuggled them into Hong Kong. These are two different things, one is one and the other is two, and they cannot be lumped together.

If you want to find trouble, you should go to Wang Weimin and Pengcheng. Wang Weimin directly sold the pirated disc to a state-owned unit in Pengcheng. How to smuggle it to Xiangjiang was done by Pengcheng people.

"There are not many good people who dare to engage in smuggling these days. It's okay for the society to bully ordinary people and serious small businessmen, but they don't dare to find a smuggling ship that dares to have a shootout with the coast guard if they disagree." Fang Wanzhen smiled and said. The nature of society.

Li Qingfeng nodded, fully agreeing with Fang Wanzhen's statement. The local community in Xiangjiang was indeed not very good. They no longer had the courage to risk their lives when they first established themselves in the early years.

No wonder there is no unified organization. As soon as the big circle gang of seven or eight people came in, they beat the local associations with dozens or hundreds of members to their knees and called them daddy.

"Besides verbal threats, do they pose any behavioral threats?"

"That's not true. They don't dare to do anything to our company. The most they can do is stand far away downstairs of the company, waiting one meter away when they get off work. They verbally harass our employees and disgust us. The rest They wouldn’t even dare to do it if they didn’t have the guts to do it.”

Hearing this, Qingfeng Li frowned. These people were really like toads lying on their feet - they didn't bite, but they were angry.

It seems that we need to contact Wang Weimin and ask him to discuss the interests with those involved in smuggling. Let the local community do this, which will easily affect the public to look down on low-priced discs.

I was busy working in the company until the evening. After finishing the accumulated work, I rubbed my sore eyes and got on the special car arranged by the company to go home.

Not far after the car drove out of the city, a broken van suddenly appeared in front of Qingfeng Li's car blocking the road. The driver reacted quickly, knowing that he was in trouble. He braked suddenly, and before the car stopped, he suddenly stopped and stopped. Shift into reverse gear to escape from here.

Before the car could reverse far, a car came out from behind and blocked the road.

Li Qingfeng, who was sitting in the back row, thought to himself that this was a bad person, and silently took out a pistol from the space. (End of chapter)
