Hong Kong Island Old Events

He Dingxian did not force Ni Kun to take over the movie store. There were many people who could manage the movie store. He just wanted Ni Kun to take over as a reward.

After all, Ni Kun took risks to do things for him in the last incident and just gave him money without thinking about promotion. Ni Kun might be dissatisfied.

Since Ni Kun was really willing to continue pulling the cart for him, he had to choose someone from among the old movie store employees to take over. However, he was surprised by Ni Kun's loyalty and honesty.

Is this still the Ni Kun he knows?

Afterwards, He Dingxian promoted "Xin Kai", the more capable of the movie store brothers, as deputy manager and took over Ah Hao's previous position. For him, "a black cat is a white cat, and the one that can catch mice is a good cat." The premise of employment is loyalty. If you dare to do something, the second thing is whether you have a reputation.

Three days later, Wang Laoji sent someone to tell him that the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors had unanimously agreed to absorb him as a new member.

On Sunday, he met Lu Fengtang's new talker "Baifanyu" at Donghua Restaurant and learned that Baifanyu had a daughter named "Bai Yuee"...

Baifanyu is tall and thin, with small eyes and a tall nose. He looks sinister and vicious, not like a rule-abiding person.

But he said that his daughter is well-educated, virtuous and good-looking, and does not go out often...

In contrast, Chaozhou Zou was more strict and abided by the rules of the world. Fortunately, He Dingxian was the "white rice fish" to please, so he enjoyed the whole banquet.

"Kowloon City's Da Lao family rice fish? It's interesting." He Dingxian chuckled in his heart, wondering how his face was as old as the soles of his shoes, how could he give birth to a beautiful girl like Bai Yue'e, it's unreasonable!

Have a chance to study it carefully.

A week later, the registration of Oriental Paper Mill was completed, the signboard was hung, and construction was ready to start in the rented brick building in Shek Kip Mei. In addition to the cluster of wooden houses in the housing estate, some factory owners have already built brick houses near Shek Kip Mei, mainly for construction and rental.

Because it is easy to recruit workers in Shek Kip Mei and there is a large number of cheap labor, factory owners have long been eyeing it. It is a geomantic omen and it is easy to rent a brick house.

These brick houses do not have land certificates, and the rents are several times cheaper than those in Kowloon Tong, Mong Kok, and Tsim Sha Tsui East. Unless they expand to a certain scale, the ghosts will not come to collect taxes.

This week, Chen Li was discharged from the hospital and returned to the police station to resume his duties. A minor injury in the short term would not affect a uniformed sergeant.

The Yau Ma Tei ghost guys have also cooperated with the Chaoshan Gang for many years and have an intricate relationship. If the Chaoshan Gang had not been able to hold on, it would not have attacked the Chinese in the Chaoshan Gang.

During Chen Li's illness and injury, the official affairs of the uniformed sergeant were both managed by Inspector Zeng and He Dingxian. Inspector Zeng was also responsible for official matters, such as meetings, training, etc., while He Dingxian was responsible for the gray work. For example, organize inspections and collect fees.

In ten days, everything went in order. At the same time, "Newspaper Hong", who went overseas with the ship, returned to Hong Kong Island with one hundred tons of wood.

This one hundred tons of wood is enough for the current production capacity of the paper mill, which can last for several months even if it works overtime for two months.

The original wood is eucalyptus from Southeast Asia. The import price is close to 50 yuan per ton. A full 100 tons is 5,000 yuan. Including the shipping fee and 2,000 yuan, the total is 7,000 yuan. Compared with the local wood in Hong Kong Island, it is 300 yuan. 1/2, taking into account the upcoming rise in lumber prices on Hong Kong Island.

If one ton of wood is beaten into wood pulp, with current technology and machinery, 50,000 white newspapers can be produced, which is equivalent to 500 pieces of paper.

Five hundred pieces of paper can be sold for one thousand Hong Kong dollars. Including labor costs and transportation and miscellaneous expenses, the profit per ton is less than six hundred. Calculated based on the production capacity of fifty tons per month, a total profit of thirty thousand Hong Kong dollars will be generated.

The most correct thing about doing business is that the labor cost is greater than the cost of raw materials. Therefore, if the cost of raw materials rises little by little, it will instantly crush the factory's profits. If the regional economy is not good, it is okay for workers to be willing to cut their wages. If the regional economy is okay, , the workers will run away immediately, and the factory will close down.

"Don't look at the small profit of 30,000 yuan a month. When the cost of an industry is rising, if you can find the profit point, you can immediately form an advantage and sweep the entire industry, expanding rapidly in just one or two years."

He Dingxian watched the workers loading lumber onto pallets at the dock, smoking a cigarette and feeling more confident!

Zou Huaiwen pushed up his glasses and saw the goods from the factory getting off the boat. He felt that he would definitely have a place in Hong Kong's business community in the future.

"Boss, after you open up the waterways and raw materials, the factory doesn't need to lower prices at all. It only needs to maintain the market price, and it can easily generate sales."

"Oriental Paper can also continue to acquire, bankrupt, and bankrupt factories that want to exit the paper industry. After increasing production capacity, it can easily earn ten times or a hundred times the money."

He Dingxian did not answer Zou Huaiwen's words. He waved Jiang Yanhong to him and put a roll of Hong Kong dollars into his hand: "Hong, thank you for your hard work."

It is of little use to imagine the future now. If the paper mill wants to do better and better, there are many relationships that need to be taken care of, such as Boss Chu's cargo ship.

You don't have much cargo. When it's ten tons or fifty tons, you can just find a corner and stuff it in. What if it becomes 100 tons or 500 tons in the future?

Then it is impossible to borrow ships from other companies. You must have a shipping company or ship owner who serves you. You must also consider whether the Guilao government will issue environmental protection regulations.

Of course, if you run a good business and have enough money, all problems will not be a problem, and the law can be changed for you.

Taking the paper mill as the basis, doing a good job in the industry and making it bigger and stronger has become the most important goal in recent years. The next thirty years will be the golden age for the paper industry to take off.

Jiang Yanhong's cheeks were chapped, as if he had shed a layer of skin, and his clothes were dusty. He took the Hong Kong dollars and said shyly: "Boss, I collected commissions before I went overseas."

The money for selling one's life is naturally paid in advance.

He Dingxian smiled and said: "Two hundred yuan, take a bath and relax."

"Thank you, boss." Jiang Yanhong happily accepted.

He Dingxian nodded and said: "Hong, you will be responsible for following the ship to Southeast Asia from now on. Ah Zai, you send five brothers to go to sea with Hong on business."

Lardboy put his arms around his shoulders and said happily: "Brother Hong, you will really be a newspaper Hong in the future. Not only do you like to read newspapers, maybe, whether all newspapers in Hong Kong can start working in the future will all depend on you."

"Brother Zai, stop teasing me."

Jiang Yanhong reluctantly gave in, holding two hundred Hong Kong dollars tightly in his palm.

After this time, it became a habit for him to bring a few newspapers on board to read when he went to sea. In the future, he would even learn newspapers in English and Thai.

"Azai, remember to give me the factory's monthly report, including purchases and shipments, who they sell to, how many workers there are, how many hours the work starts. I want to specify how many sheets, how many working hours, one cent per cent."

Lardboy nodded in agreement: "Okay."

"In addition, Ajie has been discharged from the hospital. You are arranged to join the factory as the deputy director. The position of director will be given to Awen. Keep an eye on it." He Dingxian explained a few more details.

Lardboy patted his chest and promised: "Boss, please rest assured. Awen and I will manage the factory well and will not relax the business of the movie store. Otherwise, it will be a bad thing to affect the business of the movie store. In addition, Qiu De will be able to take advantage of it." Yes, there is still a nail at home."

He Dingxian nodded with satisfaction: "Just remember."

"Next month after the factory has shipped out the first batch of goods, I will go to the factory to treat my brothers to a meal and meet the brothers in the factory. Also, remember to pay the highest-end bids for me every month from the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce!"

"We will be able to use it commercially in the future."

The main reason for working in the factory is that you have never met the brothers in the factory. The brothers may not necessarily regard you as the boss. In any profession, you have to be emotional and know how to win people's hearts. Bid association money is the money of members of the chamber of commerce as a matter of course. The higher the payment, the higher the low-interest loans in the future. It can be regarded as a mutually beneficial private fund-raising. Remember, from ancient times to the present, only the internal bidding of interest organizations has been stable. Private bidding associations All bids will be treated as illegal fund-raising, especially those that promise high interest rates.

In the busy half month, He Dingxian not only opened a factory, but also obtained the status of Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce.

If you add the movie store and Oriental Paper together, he can be considered one of the outstanding young businessmen in the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce. The key is that he started from scratch, has a unique vision, and has no corporate background. I believe he has attracted the attention of some big bosses.

Without the identity of the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce, Liu Fu would have shot him in the heart with a gun after he was discharged from the hospital. But now as long as a chamber of commerce boss comes forward for him, Liu Fu will grit his teeth and put down the gun even if he hits the table.

He believed that as long as he asked someone to go out and invite a senior from the Chamber of Commerce to come out, someone should stand up for him. At the worst possible time, he would hold a peace ceremony, build a big golden Buddha, and build a golden staircase for former Inspector General Hua to descend.

Of course, as a junior, he also owes favors to others. No matter when the other party is in trouble, whether it is mobilizing the power of business or the police force, he has to solve it for the other party.

He Dingxian is not afraid of owing favors to others. When you are in a low position, it is a good thing to owe favors to others. At least there is someone to help you.

Prove you are worthy!

However, he has been helped by Master, Wang Laoji, and Yao Mu. If he continues to ask for help, there will be no problem.

The people who help him are also happy, but if he has to rely on others to cross the bridge, he will lose all his ambition after a storm. Who will help you in the next storm?

What's more, the person who stands up for him can at most help him make peace. Making peace means bowing his head, admitting defeat, and admitting his mistake! However, He Dingxian felt that he did the right thing and did not want to admit defeat, let alone bow to the enemy!

If you don't beat your enemy to death, you might get stabbed in the back one day.

At this time, he had already concluded in his heart that the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce really wanted to borrow his power. Today, Chen Li called him into the office and questioned him more firmly.

"Crack!"

He Dingxian stood at attention at his desk, saluted, and shouted: "Hello, sir!"

Chen Li held the teacup, leaned against the wooden chair, drank a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Axian, sit down."

"Thank you, sir!"

He Dingxian shouted again, then smiled, pulled out a chair, sat down, offered a cigarette and said: "Master, smoke."

Chen Li took the cigarette, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, took a deep breath, threw the cigarette on the table, and sighed sadly: "Quit!"

"Master, this is a good thing." He Dingxian was surprised at the feeling of quitting smoking. However, if he wants to stop smoking after decades of smoking, I am afraid the best way is to go to the hospital.

Chen Li also said: "At first I was lying on the hospital bed and had no strength to inhale. Then the doctor didn't allow me to inhale. Then I thought it was no big deal not to inhale."

"I'm older, so I should take care of myself more. I hope I can enjoy happiness in the future." He glanced at He Dingxian and said with a smile, "Why, I won't have any soup to drink after I get out of the hospital."

He Dingxian immediately said: "Master wants to drink, so I will ask my mother to cook it right away."

"never mind."

Chen Li waved his hand and said, "Ten days of drinking your pork belly soup is enough. If I drink any more, I'm afraid others will think I'm going to be your father-in-law."

"I'm not brave enough to be your father!" Chen Li also spoke very rudely: "I'll die quickly!"

This is also true.

He Dingxian shrugged his shoulders and said, "You should also be filial to your master."

Chen Li raised his eyebrows and asked meaningfully: "I heard from Brother Mu that you went to see him some time ago?"
