Chapter 176 [Sir Shark Gallop] (3500 words big chapter asking for the moon
Tadao Yoshida ran many American zipper demand vendors and concluded that they did not cooperate with PG zippers in Hong Kong, but were working with Sing Tao Ygg zipper manufacturers.
And in terms of price, ykk zippers have no advantage at all!
My heart suddenly felt a lot of cold. Could this ygg zipper also be a property under Wu Guangyao?
Tadao Yoshida digs Wu Guangyao's corner of the wall like this, and Wu Guangyao also hears the wind.
Many loyal and old customers called and talked about this.
On the phone, Wu Guangyao promised these people on the spot that everyone is doing long-term business and that prices will only drop and will not rise in the later period!
The price of ykk zippers in Japan can never be as good as yourself!
Wu Guangyao's promise made many American major customers throw their business cards into the trash can!
Wu Guangyao did not exaggerate the strange talk, and there is still a lot of room for decline in the price of PG zippers.
So, after this beam is formed, everyone will ride a donkey and read the songbook - let’s take a look!
...........
Although Bao Yugang's company is located in Queen's Avenue in Central, its financial strength is not strong, and it can even be said to be extremely weak!
It can be seen from the fact that a fewer than 200 square feet of offices were filled with four people that Sir Bao could only be considered a low-level businessman among Hong Kong Island merchants.
"Manager Bao, what should I do? The payment for this batch of goods in the mainland is still half as low as possible. If the money is not raised in time, then I will miss this opportunity?" A partner employee said to Bao Yugang with a sad face.
If a capitalist has 50% profit, he will take risks; if a 100% profit, he will dare to trample on all laws in the world; if a 300% profit, he will dare to risk being on the gallows.
The above sentence is correct. At this time, Hong Kong Island's "smuggling" these goods to the mainland is trampling on the "laws" of Hong Kong Island.
This is an import and export trading company opened by Bao Yugang and three fellow villagers. At this time, he was facing a problem, that is, the insufficient payment for imported scarce materials from the mainland.
"I'll find a way. I heard that HSBC is the largest bank in Hong Kong. I'm also a banker. I'll try it. Maybe I have the chance to get the payment!" Bao Yugang cheered the three partners.
As the general manager of this import and export trading company, Bao Yugang feels that he can't retreat.
At this time, it was a great opportunity that I missed. When will I make a comeback in Hong Kong?
"Manager Bao, this may not be successful! Foreign banks are deeply rooted in discrimination against Chinese businessmen, and only interact with a few Chinese giant businessmen such as He Dong and Wu Guangyao. There is also a popular saying outside: If you want to obtain foreign banks' water (loans), it is best to first become Sir He Dong's godfather and be brothers with Wu Guangyao!"
"Hmph, I don't believe in this evil. You are waiting for my good news!"
Bao Yugang was dissatisfied with his partner's words and spoke loudly!
Bao Yugang, born by a banker, is strongly dissatisfied with the discrimination of foreign banks in Hong Kong against Chinese businessmen, especially against Shanghai businessmen.
Hong Kong Island in this era belonged to Guangdong Province, and it was difficult for Shanghai and Zhejiang Province merchants to get support from banks on Hong Kong Island, and the compradors were from Guangdong Province.
Regardless of regional feelings, the merchants in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai are not as good as those in Guangdong Province in language because they speak Cantonese here!
Bao Yugang decided to bypass the comprador of Guangdong Province and go straight to HSBC Bank.
Because I was a newcomer and didn't understand the rules of front door and back door, I walked into HSBC directly from the front door.
Fortunately, Wu Guangyao made a fuss, and the increasing power of Chinese businessmen in Hong Kong was at this time, and no staff came out to emphasize the unspoken rule that "Chinese people are not allowed to enter through the front door."
Bao Yu was as if no one was around and broke into the office of the Import Department. The person sitting in the office was the head and deputy manager of the Import Department.
Import manager Guy, who is about to be promoted to chairman of HSBC;
The deputy manager of the import department is Sandas, an ally of Wu Guangyao, and is about to be promoted to the manager of the loan project department.
The two of you are not very popular with Bao Yugang, an uninvited guest, and look like you don’t want to pay attention to it.
Because Bao Yugang did not make an appointment, he must have broken into the two of them directly.
In addition, Bao Yugang is an unknown Chinese with no commercial record or real estate in Hong Kong, so it is natural for the two to meet Bao Yugang in cold weather.
Bao Yugang was not bothered either. He really didn't make an appointment, so he was a little inappropriate.
As a banker in Shanghai, Bao Yugang naturally had no problem with English. He introduced to the two that he was once a banker and then to the problems his company was currently facing. He gave in a full ten minutes before he finished speaking the words he had thought about in his heart.
After listening to Bao Yugang's confession patiently, Sandas took the lead in speaking: "I admire your courage and your talent. You don't need to explain, I also know the purpose of this batch of materials. They will be shipped to the mainland. Therefore, I cannot lend you a loan. You may think that we rejected you for political reasons. This is completely wrong. War is dangerous, and the risks of war are rejected by insurance companies, let alone our banking industry."
Guy also said, "Sandas is right. If your supplies are intercepted by the water police, you will have nothing and be in prison. The money we loan you will not be able to get back, so we don't lend you. You were also a banker before, so you should know this."
Bao Yugang was complicated at this time, and was completely opposite to the heroic spirit he had just come in, full of disappointment.
If there is no loan, when will your own small company develop?
"If you are convenient, leave your company's address and phone number, I may come and inspect it. Trading companies can not only do business in the mainland, but also do business in the global market. I am optimistic about your personal abilities, so I think we can get to know each other!" said Sandas.
Sandas remembered Wu Guangyao. The man was the same as the person in front of him, but Wu Guangyao was so powerful at that time!
By investing in such talents, HSBC will get rich returns, and as the position of manager of the loan project department, it will be like a fish in water, and go further!
Bao Yugang quickly adjusted his status. Although the loan business cannot be completed, he may really be able to cooperate with HSBC in the future.
Bao Yu had just left the company's phone number and address and handed it over to Sandas.
Sandas also wrote a phone number on the note and handed it to Bao Yugang, and said, "Maybe this person can help you, you can try it!"
Bao Yu was stunned. What does this mean? Could it be that the phone number on the note was the phone number of Huazi Bank.
With a complex and expectant mood, Bao Yu had just left HSBC.
"You shouldn't interfere in this matter, after all, the mainland is also fighting our British Empire!" Guy said.
"I didn't interfere, and we couldn't change anything. I just supported a talented person from a business perspective. Maybe he would be the next Wu Guangyao. Manager, although the Hong Kong government ordered that the smuggling of mainland goods was not allowed, could it stop these Chinese people?"
"Hey! That's true. If our motherland suffers such a thing, I believe our Chinese will do the same. Although the Hong Kong government has a great inspection, there are indeed too many people smuggling, and there are always many fish that miss the net. Whether it is for the benefit or for the country, no one can stop those desperate people."
The two of them looked at the problem from the perspective of HSBC; even the Hong Kong government had to consider the interests of Hong Kong Island.
Bao Yugang was excited and dialed according to the phone number given by Sandas, and the voice of a man was opposite him.
"Hello! I'm introduced by the Sandas Manager of HSBC. My name is Bao Yugang. I would like to ask you who is?"
"You should be looking for my boss, Mr. Wu Guangyao! Sandas is indeed friends with my boss, but my boss is not here now. Why don't you leave a phone number and name and I'll make an appointment for you!" The person who answered the phone was Wu Guangyao's office clerk at Global Shipping. When he heard that it was introduced by Sandas of HSBC, he did not treat Bao Yugang as a stranger.
......
Wu Guangyao has too many companies, and his office space is not fixed every day. If there is no special urgent matter, office clerks from various companies rarely call Wu Guangyao's office phone numbers one after another in the address book.
But this time, the clerk of Global Shipping heard that it was someone introduced by Sandas, so he helped Bao Yugang contact Wu Guangyao.
Wu Guangyao was in Uniqlo's office. After hearing the staff's phone number, he dialed Bao Yugang's phone number on the spot.
After a brief chat, Bao Yu had just arrived at a restaurant in the evening and had a meal together.
At this time, Wu Guangyao had become accustomed to seeing these celebrities from later generations, let alone being excited!
At this time, Wu Guangyao's thighs were the thickest Chinese in Hong Kong!
Yunyang Hotel
Wu Guangyao met the famous Sir Bao in later generations. Because they were all from Zhejiang Province, there were inevitably many topics to talk about!
"Guangyao, do you have any plans to return to the mainland?" Sir Bao asked. After a period of enthusiastic exchange, the two of them no longer felt unfamiliar and had become friends.
Wu Guangyao was very honored to make friends with him, so he naturally became familiar with him quickly.
"I am not suitable for the mainland. I am a big capitalist, a big capitalist hated by the hard-working public! Therefore, I will only go back unless Hong Kong Island returns!" Wu Guangyao said firmly.
Bao Yu nodded and said nothing. He wasn’t full of fear of new things!
In fact, Wu Guangyao knew that Bao Yugang's family still had a yearning for the mainland, especially Bao Yugang's father Bao Zhaolong.
Bao Zhaolong returned to the mainland in 1952, but almost failed to return to Hong Kong Island.
It is said that the mainland is carrying out a three-and-five movement, repelling the rampant attack of the bourgeoisie.
Bao Zhaolong was almost detained and suffered a lot.
Moreover, the first Chinese "ship king" Lu Zuofu committed suicide by swallowing sleeping pills, shocking Hong Kong and Kowloon, greatly stimulating those businessmen who were still thinking about returning to the mainland.
Lu Zuofu, the founder of Minsheng Company, the first generation of Chinese "ship king", has tens of thousands of employees, and the fleet is so large that even Wu Guangyao cannot compare with.
Originally, Lu Zuofu had already arrived in Hong Kong Island, but because he yearned for the mainland, he returned to the mainland.
It was indeed very honorable at the beginning, and all kinds of honors were added, but the result was...
"Brother Bao, what are you asking me for?" Wu Guangyao said.
Bao Yu was a little embarrassed when he heard this, but he still told Wu Guangyao what happened today.
After hearing this, Wu Guangyao said cheerfully: "Okay, since everyone is from Zhejiang Province, I will lend it to you privately!"
50,000 Hong Kong dollars is a small matter for Wu Guangyao. Besides, since it is the material needed by the mainland, it is nothing to make some contributions by yourself!
Why didn’t you lend Bao Yugang from the company?
Because Wu Guangyao knew that Bao Yugang had a hard time, that is, the company was listed as a "banned trading company" by the United States.
Because the United States believes that Bao Yu had transported contraband to the mainland during the Korean War.
Although Bao Yu had just gone to the American Department of Commerce to file a complaint in person, and the complaint was successful, Wu Guangyao still didn't want to get into this muddy water.
"Thank you so much! Don't worry, Guangyao, I will pay you back even if I lose everything!" Bao Yugang said confidently.
"It's not that serious, Brother Bao, we are in love, don't talk nonsense!"
"This is not a person's reputation!"
Wu Guangyao did not expect that he was lent HK$50,000 as soon as he met Bao Yu for the first time.
Of course, I am happy to help such a talented and patriotic businessman!
The word patriotism is very important!
Even Wu Guangyao can only have a clear conscience, and may be scolded by his compatriots in the future!
If you have your own family, it is impossible to donate all your property to those people!
You can only do it yourself, help the motherland develop its economy as much as possible, and at the same time, you must build on helping each other!
Chapter completed!
