Hong Kong Movie: Traveling through Hung Hing, you want me to do good deeds?

Just then, his cell phone rang.

Tang Peijun looked at Shen Dong, and Shen Dong said, "Hurry up and answer it."

Tang Peijun picked up the call immediately.

"What? Everything stopped?"

"Okay, I get it, don't panic."

After hanging up the phone, Tang Peijun said, "Brother Dong, the report from Tseung Kwan O is that they can't buy cement and river sand either."

Shen Dong sneered, "They are trying to beat us to death. Old Tang, how long can the materials on the construction site last?"

Tang Peijun said: "Tseung Kwan O will be fine for half a month, but other places will be in trouble."

Shen Dong asked: "Do you have any solution?"

Tang Peijun said: "There are two ways. One is to ask Li Chaoren and other big guys to show some leniency."

Shen Dong waved his hand and said, "It is absolutely impossible for me to bow my head. Let's talk about the other method."

Tang Peijun said: "The biggest difficulty in opening a construction materials company and importing river sand and cement from outside is that the Foreign Trade Department does not issue us relevant certificates."

Shen Dong asked: "Where do their companies import these things from?"

Tang Peijun said: "Mainly Malaysia in Southeast Asia."

Shen Dong was slightly stunned and said, "Why not inland? The river sand and cement there are not only of good quality, but also cheaper than in Malaysia. Not to mention other things, the transportation cost alone can save a lot of money."

Tang Peijun said: "Hong Kong Island belongs to the Eagle Sauce Country, and its relationship with the mainland is not very good. It's not that they don't want to buy, but they dare not buy."

Shen Dong was amused and said, "If we bring river sand and cement from the inland to Hong Kong Island, what do you think they will do?"

There are many bosses doing real estate business in Hong Kong Island. Although their strength is far inferior to that of Li Chaoren and others, if they can be united through building materials, they will be able to form a force that can compete with these real estate tycoons.

If Shen Dong controls this power, then Li Chaoren and others will have no way to stop his rise. After all, he is not short of money, but of connections and resources.

Tang Peijun said, "The key is the Foreign Trade Department. I heard that their director Wilson is a typical hawk and is very difficult to deal with. It is also hard to say what faction the newly appointed deputy director Zhuang Wenfa belongs to."

Shen Dong narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Everyone has weaknesses. Old Tang, find two private detectives to investigate Wilson and Zhuang Wenfa's ancestors as quickly as possible. Money is not a problem, the key is speed."

Tang Peijun nodded and said, "I'll go now."

Shen Dong hummed.

Not long after Tang Peijun left, Qiu Ti walked in with a cup of coffee.

"Is there something wrong with the company? I noticed that Mr. Tang's face looked very serious."

Shen Dong took the coffee and laughed, "Big people are not allowed to show their emotions on their faces. No matter what kind of big problem you encounter, you shouldn't let outsiders see it on your face. It seems that Old Tang still needs to be tempered."

Qiu Ti rolled his eyes at Shen Dong and said, "I have done a good job. But you, although you are young, speak in a very old-fashioned tone."

Shen Dong pulled Qiu Ti into his arms and said unhappily, "Is this your attitude towards your boss? If I don't teach you a lesson, you will ride on my head in the future."

Qiuti seemed to sense something and exclaimed, "Let me go, this is in the office."

Shen Dong kissed her and said, "Offices are the place where romance can happen."

Just when Shen Dong was about to take action against Qiu Ti, the phone on the desk suddenly rang.

Qiu Ti said, "Hurry up and answer the phone."

Shen Dong let go of Qiu Ti and said, "You're lucky this time. Next time I'll let you know how powerful I am."

Qiuti's face flushed, he glared at him and said, "Bad guy."

Seeing Qiuti’s shy face made Shen Dong feel itchy again.

"Hey, what's going on?"

"Mr. Shen, Mr. Li Zekai wants to see you."

"Li Zekai? Li Chaoren's eldest son?"

"Yes."

"Ask him to come up."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Dong sneered.

It turned out that it was Li Chaoren who was looking for trouble.

Qiu Ti said, "Hubby, I'm going out first."

Shen Dong nodded and said, "Don't be too tired, let's have lunch together at noon."

"Ok."

Qiu Ti agreed and left the office.

Soon, Shen Dong met Li Zekai.

Although Li Zekai is only in his twenties, Shen Dong saw the word "stable" from his temperament, demeanor and behavior.

The two exchanged a few polite words, and Shen Dong said directly: "Mr. Li, I used to be a short mule, and I have only been in the business world for a month, so I like to speak and do things directly, and I don't like to play tricks. If I guess correctly, the river sand and cement business should be done by you, right?"

Li Zekai nodded and said, "Yes."

Shen Dong said: "Everything you do has its own purpose. I want to know what your purpose is?"

Li Zekai smiled and said, "We are very interested in your company's projects in Tseung Kwan O and Kowloon. My father means that he hopes to cooperate with you."

Chapter 315: Breaking up with the Li Family

Shen Dong was stunned and asked, "How can we cooperate?"

Shen Dong had talked to Li Chaoren about cooperation before, and Li Chaoren refused without hesitation.

Unexpectedly, less than half a month later, the other party was eager to cooperate.

Of course, people have taken control of your river sand and cement, and Shen Dong doesn't think that Li Chaoren will cooperate with him on an equal footing.

Sure enough, Li Zekai said, "We are willing to use the current market price plus 15% to purchase your projects in Tseung Kwan O and Kowloon. What do you think?"

Shen Dong laughed loudly and said, "15%? Your Li family is too generous. Believe it or not, once the more than 100 acres of land in Tseung Kwan O is built, the future income will definitely exceed 7 to 8 times or even more than 10 times the investment. You want to take over my project with 15% of the profit, which is too unrealistic."

Li Zekai's smile remained unchanged, but his words became more aggressive.

"Mr. Shen, you just said that there will be considerable profits after the project is completed, but what if it cannot be completed?"

Shen Dong said firmly: "Then wait. Mr. Li, I know you control the raw materials of the construction industry, including the most important cement and river sand. But there is one thing you can't control, and that is the return of Hong Kong Island."

"These things are worthless in the inland. You have raised the prices of cement and river sand by dozens of times, and have reaped huge profits from major real estate companies in Hong Kong Island. You have truly achieved a monopoly."

"But you have to understand that you can only monopolize the market when the Eagle Sauce Country is in power. After Hong Kong Island returns, the mainland will never allow this to happen."

"Your father should know that I am very optimistic about the future of the real estate industry, so I would rather buy and hoard land and wait for ten or eight years before starting construction, and I will never be threatened by you."

Li Zekai frowned and said, "Mr. Shen, don't forget that the commercial building on the Kowloon land must be built within two years."

Shen Dong said in a deep voice: "If I can't find a solution within three months, I will sell the project to other real estate tycoons. Even if I lose 10 or 800 million, I will accept it. In short, I will never cooperate with your Li family, because your current practice makes me feel sick."

Li Zekai said: "Mr. Shen, you are too impulsive."

Shen Dong said disdainfully, "It's because your Li family is too utilitarian. I originally thought that Sir Li started from scratch and was able to build such a large family business. He should be an elder worthy of respect, so I foolishly thought about building a good relationship with you. Now it seems that I was wrong. Your father is just a businessman who likes to play tricks and is only interested in profit. To be honest, he disappoints me."

Hearing Shen Dong say this about his father, Li Zekai finally got angry and said coldly: "Business is like a battlefield. If Mr. Shen can't learn to compromise, his business will probably never grow big."

Shen Dong laughed loudly and said, "I will make money standing up."

Li Zekai stood up and said, "First, fix the cement and sand before you say that."

Shen Dong said: "No matter whether it can be done or not, you Li family, don't even think about getting any benefit from me. I would rather feed it to a dog than give it to you."

"We'll see."

Li Zekai was so angry that his face turned blue. Without even saying hello, he walked out of Shen Dong's office angrily.

Shen Dong touched his nose and laughed, "He lost his temper after just a few words. It seems that this young master of the Li family needs to practice more."

After returning to the company, Li Zekai walked into Li Chaoren's office and briefly explained the matter.

"This Shen Dong has a very tough personality and is not suitable for working in the business world at all." Li Zekai said angrily.

Li Chaoren adjusted his glasses habitually and said, "The Shen Dong you see seems to be somewhat different from the Shen Dong I see. In my eyes, Shen Dong is a wise, shrewd, steady and generous young man. I vaguely sensed danger from him, so I used building materials to suppress him."

Li Zekai frowned and said, "Father, I'm afraid you have misjudged him. This Shen Dong may still be modest and respectful in front of you, but he is extremely arrogant and domineering in front of me. He even said that he would rather feed those projects to dogs than give them to us. This is simply unreasonable."

Li Chaoren said: "Don't just get angry. If you want to achieve success in business, you must be calm."

Li Zekai took a deep breath, calmed down his mood, and said, "Father, Shen Dong is too stubborn. I'm afraid he really won't sell the project to us."

A cold light flashed in Li Chaoren's eyes, and he said, "Then continue to suppress him until he admits defeat."

Li Zekai said: "What if he sells the project to other tycoons?"

Li Chaoren said confidently: "Who do you think would become an enemy of our Li family for a project?"

Li Zekai nodded and said, "That's true."

Indeed, with the Li family's strength and influence in Hong Kong Island, ordinary businessmen do not have the courage to go against them. Those wealthy tycoons have many business dealings with the Li family, and it is even more impossible for them to risk offending the Li family to help Shen Dong.

What's more, there are unspoken rules among wealthy families.

For example, last year Li Zhaoshan wanted to deal with a wealthy businessman from Taiwan. No matter how much the businessman paid, no wealthy family paid any attention to him. In the end, the businessman lost more than 1 billion yuan and left.

Li Chaoren picked up the coffee, took a sip, and said slowly: "You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. We are just starting now. When Shen Dong suffers a lot, he will be honest. Young people are always a little unruly."

Tang Peijun is very efficient in his work.

That night, information about Wilson and Zhuang Wenfa appeared in front of Shen Dong.

After dinner, Shen Dong began to study.

There is not much information about Zhuang Wenfa. He seemed to have appeared out of nowhere five years ago and was directly appointed as the deputy director of the office of the Hong Kong Island Commercial Bureau.

In just four years, this guy climbed up the career ladder and became the deputy director of the Department of Foreign Trade.

Needless to say, there must be some force behind him pushing him.

Zhuang Wenfa is 36 years old this year and is not married yet. Apart from playing badminton, he doesn't have any hobbies.

Shen Dong dislikes this kind of flawless person the most.

Wilson, director of the Department of Foreign Trade, is completely the opposite. He has a lot of flaws, especially in terms of "money" and "sex". He can simply be described as "extremely evil".

He is a representative figure of the Eagle Sauce faction. He is decisive and powerful in his actions.

In recent years, the economic and trade exchanges between Hong Kong Island and the North have not been very good, and it is all because of Wilson who is obstructing them.

Shen Dong scratched his head and murmured, "It's a bit difficult to deal with."

"Huh? Isn't this Brother Zhuang?" Ou Yongen came over to bring coffee to Shen Dong, and said in surprise when she saw the photo on the information.

Shen Dong was stunned and asked, "Do you know Zhuang Wenfa?"

Ou Yongen said: "He used to be a lawyer. He studied with my godfather for three years. Later he entered politics and had a smooth journey. Now he is the deputy director of the Foreign Trade Department. He holds a high position of power. He has a good relationship with my godfather. Don't try to take advantage of him."

Shen Dong said helplessly: "I asked him for help, so I asked someone to get his information."

Ou Yongen said: "What do you want from him? Tell me."

Chapter 316 Meeting Zhuang Wenfa

Shen Dong briefly explained Li Chaoren's monopoly on construction materials and his own affairs, and said: "The cement and sand in the inland are of good quality, cheap, and the freight is even cheaper. As long as I can get a license issued by the Foreign Trade Department, I can break the monopoly of Li Chaoren and other wealthy tycoons, and even defeat them in turn."

Ou Yongen exclaimed: "Hubby, I didn't expect you to go to the point where Li Chaoren had to find ways to suppress you. It's really beyond my expectations."

Shen Dong said coldly: "Li Chaoren is nothing. Damn, I used to respect him, but now I realize that this guy is just a despicable and shameless old bastard who will do anything to get what he wants."

Ou Yongen said, "Businessmen pursue profits, that's all. Do you want me to ask my godfather to help you get Zhuang Wenfa out to talk?"

Shen Dong smiled and said, "Okay."

Ou Yongen smiled and said, "I thought you would refuse?"

Shen Dong was stunned and said, "Such a good thing, why would I refuse it?"

Ou Yongen said: "Many men are somewhat chauvinistic and they are unwilling to accept help from us women."

Shen Dong said disdainfully: "Such men either have fragile self-esteem, lack self-confidence, or suffer from impotence rage syndrome. Fortunately, I don't have this problem."

Ou Yongen kissed Shen Dong and said, "Yes, our husband is the best."
