Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 616 Guided Cannonballs

Bao Zixuan had lunch at Qian's home before leaving. Although it was just a simple home-cooked meal, Bao Zixuan was very happy with the meal. This is Mr. Qian's recognition of him, which can be said to be very rare.

It was already 3pm when I got home, and I saw that the service staff were all busy. Tonight, the Bao Mansion will hold a dinner to entertain the wealthy people from Xiangjiang and their families. It can also be said that everyone will celebrate the Chinese New Year together.

At present, it is very difficult to develop recyclable rocket technology. Fortunately, it has only entered the technology reserve stage. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, many top rocket experts will be displaced overseas. That is when Heiyun Group and Bao Zixuan will exert their efforts.

At this time, several tycoons from Xiangjiang were enjoying tea in the tea room, although they did not need to be entertained by mainland China. But after all, some gifts will be sent during the Chinese New Year; many famous Chinese teas, some of which cannot be bought with money.

Dong Haoyun saw Bao Zixuan coming back and said with a smile: "We were just discussing when Xiao Bao will come back. It seems that Huo Sheng understands you."

While everyone was drinking tea, they talked about why Bao Zixuan hadn't seen anyone since the morning. Huo Yingdong knew some inside information and reassured everyone, and told Bao Zixuan that he would definitely come back in the afternoon.

With Huo Yingdong's guarantee, I felt a lot more relieved, but people coming from Xiangjiang would inevitably be worried. Although this is China's Kyoto, the situation is still unclear, and they will not be easy-going if something goes wrong with the richest man Bao.

Bao Zixuan: "What are you guys talking about! To be so happy, you must be talking about more than just me!"

At this time, Hu Yingxiang suddenly said: "Little Baosheng, you taught the young people a good lesson on the plane. You can't favor one thing and the other. If you have the opportunity to make a fortune, you should take us with you."

Bao Zixuan: "With my limited skills, I don't dare to do anything in front of you. You have been doing business for much longer than me."

What Bao Zixuan said on the plane was not a secret, everyone who could tell it already knew it. It's just that it's still unclear whether Xiangjiang will return, and everyone wants to get an accurate result.

Bao, the richest man, went out early this morning and didn't come back until now. Everyone thought he was going to meet with China's senior officials. Otherwise, it would be impossible to be so mysterious, and it would be reasonable to get some inside information.

Although Huo Yingdong knew something, he still hoped that Bao Zixuan could guide everyone in a positive direction. It makes sense to come to Kyoto to celebrate the New Year in this way. Otherwise, it would be a joke to put in so much effort and have no effect at all.

Judging from the current situation, Bao Zixuan is a staunch supporter of investment in mainland China, which means that he will not lead people astray.

Huo Yingdong: "Don't be humble, Xiaobaosheng. We are just older. But no one can compare with you in business, so you should talk to everyone more and don't hide anything."

No one is stupid, Huo Yingdong's meaning is obvious. He wanted Hong Kong tycoons to come to mainland China to invest, but he couldn't always say it himself, as that would look very deliberate.

Bao Zixuan: "For those of you who want to invest, I think the terminal business is still worth doing. As reform and opening up continues to deepen, mainland China will definitely have more and more connections with the outside world. Looking at the entire mainland of China, there is currently no modern port, so the terminal is A most needed facility.”

"Everyone is here today. I will go to the Middle East to inspect projects in the middle of the year. I will definitely buy a few oil fields. Next year, the profits of Baohuodong Mining Company can be invested in the construction of Huaxia Terminal and high-speed; otherwise, if the transportation capacity is not enough, the products will be produced. It can’t be shipped out either.”

What Bao Zixuan said was exactly what Huo Yingdong wanted to express, but Mr. Huo couldn't say it himself. Now that he heard that Bao Zixuan had understood his intention, Huo Yingdong was very pleased.

China's infrastructure is very backward, and the dock is a window open to other countries. How can a country carry out foreign trade without even a decent dock? The transportation cost alone will be prohibitive.

Xiangjiang is a place that cultivates shipping kings, and everyone recognizes the dock. Having a dock is equivalent to having the right to speak, and now hearing Bao Zixuan's words has increased everyone's confidence.

It's just that Mr. Bao has some pitfalls this time. It will be difficult to see any benefits from building the dock in the next ten to fifteen years. However, since some people are not interested in industry, why not let them contribute to China's infrastructure construction.

Although what Bao Zixuan said made sense, many people were still skeptical. At present, China does not import and export much goods. If the terminal is built without cargo transportation, it will be very troublesome. It will definitely cost a lot to invest in the terminal. Failure to return funds will affect subsequent business, and many people are afraid to take risks easily.

At this time, a rich voice said: "Little Baosheng thinks it is most beneficial to build a dock in that city. As far as I know, there are not many goods exported from China. There are many coastal cities in China, so there must be a focus! In addition, we If everyone is actively building terminals, they will inevitably share the limited cargo, which is also an issue that needs to be considered.”

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and after seeing the person, they finally knew who was speaking.

Zhao Congyan, born in Suzhou Province in 1919, is the shipping king of Xiangjiang. Graduated from Soochow University and is a practicing lawyer. Later he founded Huaguang Shipping and became the owner of dozens of cargo ships. In the late 1970s, Xiangjiang became a world-famous international shipping center; among them, Global Shipping Company Pao Yukang, Orient Overseas Shipping Dong Haoyun, Wanbang Group Cao Wenjin and Huaguang Shipping Industry Zhao Congyan were collectively known as the "Four Shipping Kings of Xiangjiang". Zhao Congyan prospered during the Korean War and Hong Kong's economic boom. Huaguang Shipping was once listed in Hong Kong and later privatized.

As a veteran ship king who rarely appears recently, Bao Zixuan is not very familiar with him. But I also know that he exists because his son is so famous.

Zhao Congyan's fourth son, Zhao Shizeng, is a master in love. He once claimed that the number of women he has dated exceeds five figures, and they have been screened. If they were not screened, the number would be even more astonishing. "I can date one, two, three or even four women every day." Zhao Shizeng's playboy style is very famous in Hong Kong, and he even has the title of "the number one player in Hong Kong".

Due to the existence of Zhao Shizeng, the Xiangjiang entertainment media reported too much on the Zhao family. Even Bao Zixuan, who doesn't read entertainment news, knows of his existence, which shows how influential he is.

Zhao Congyan has not been having a good time recently, and the global shipping crisis will certainly involve the Zhao family. Dong Haoyun and Bao Yugang have huge dividends from Baohuodong Mining Company, as well as the cargo transportation business of Heiyun and Baohuodong companies. However, the Zhao family does not have these advantages. They were able to survive this time because the old man had a good habit of collecting. He sold some of the antiques, calligraphy and paintings he usually acquired to get through the difficulties.

Thinking that all wealthy Chinese businessmen would go to China this time, he came here to see if there were any good projects to invest in. Even if I don't have investment, I can get on the line with Bao Zixuan, Huo Yingdong and others to win some transportation business, so I came here with everyone.

Now when he heard that Bao Zixuan said that he could invest in the dock, Zhao Congyan was very excited. If they can invest in the dock together, it can leave a way out for the Zhao family. At worst, they can sell a few antiques and buy them back when they have money.

Bao Zixuan: "It turns out to be Ship King Zhao. I'm sorry I didn't recognize you just now. If you want to invest in the construction of two and a half docks in mainland China, it is most suitable."

"One is Shenhai City, which is relatively close to Xiangjiang. There are many factories there and there are a lot of imported and exported goods; it will bring benefits after it is completed."

"The other one is Shanghai City. Shanghai City is directly linked to three provinces and one city in East China. It can indirectly radiate to the entire Central China region. It can be said that the regional advantages are very obvious. At the same time, the economic foundation of these places is much better than other parts of China, and the business atmosphere is even better. It’s very rich, and it’s only a matter of time before it develops.”

"As for the other half, Jinmen City links the entire North China region and can also radiate to Northeast China. From Tianjin to the Northeast, China has the densest railway network, so goods from Northeast China can also be transported through Tianjin. "

"Although Northern China has developed very early, it has already reached a bottleneck. Northern companies are not very competitive in terms of comprehensive competitiveness, and it will be difficult for them to make big achievements in the future."

"If you want to build docks, start from these places, and other places can be used as the second echelon. King Zhao is right, building too many at once will only lead to internal competition."

At first I was a little confused when I heard Bao Zixuan say two and a half, but now I understand completely. This guy really knows the situation in China very well and must have done detailed investigation.

Bao Zixuan knew that it would not be too deceptive to guide people into the construction of the docks. As long as they could survive the first ten years or so, investing in these docks would definitely be a profitable business.

Mr. Huo had prepared a cannon for him, and he had to release it no matter what. This time, the richest man Bao made a cannonball, and then it depends on whether the wealthy businessmen will follow or not.

People who can come to China have some ideas, and operating the terminal in Xiangjiang is a business that everyone is vying for. I believe they will invest more or less, otherwise they are not gregarious.

In addition, what Bao Zixuan said is very reasonable. No one has ever lost money when working with Bao Zuofu. Everyone has made a decision, and then Huo Yingdong needs to come forward to coordinate.
