Chapter 209 [Wu Guangyao, who is justified! 】
At the media conference, Wu Guangyao was full of vitality and talked funny, and was highly praised by media people on the scene.
But it can be imagined that when European and American journalists return to their country and make news, Wu Guangyao will definitely become an arrogant Chinese boy!
This is the double standard that European and American media have always liked!
Moreover, Europeans and Americans who have always claimed to be arrogant will definitely not want a Chinese "ship king" to rise!
Japanese media will definitely praise themselves, because the global shipping ships are basically rented to their countries, and the prices are much cheaper, which obviously contributes to their economic development.
Japanese media have always liked to call Wu Guangyao a "good friend of Japanese people."
Not to mention the Hong Kong media, that is Wu Guangyao’s base camp, and there will definitely be no bad sounds.
After the media meeting, Mark Shipyard also arranged a banquet on the cruise ship.
"I didn't expect that the media meeting I organized so hard was actually dominated by Mr. Wu!" Fisher walked up to Wu Guangyao and made a harmless joke.
"Publicizing Global Shipping is at Global Mark Shipyard. I believe that more shipowners will ask Mark to build new ships!"
"Let's borrow your auspicious words! Let's go and meet some friends together!"
Fisher obviously has more energy in Japan than Wu Guangyao. He introduced all the senior officials of the Japanese government, including three cabinet ministers, including the Minister of Economics, Trade and Industry Ministers whom Wu Guangyao met last time, among them!
Wu Guangyao's strength went further, and the three cabinet ministers representing Japan's official official were naturally very enthusiastic. After all, if you want to develop the economy in this era, shipping is essential.
Without ships, overseas resources, and domestic products cannot be circulated, which hinders the development of the economy.
Of course, Wu Guangyao's business is temporarily inseparable from Japan, and both sides are mutually beneficial!
.........
The plane slowly stopped at Kai Tak Airport, and Wu Guangyao walked out of the cabin and stepped onto the land of Hong Kong Island.
He couldn't help but complain to He Yuanzhang next to him: "If time permits, I will never take a plane and would rather be a ship."
He Yuanzhang seemed very embarrassed because the plane encountered an airflow just now and swayed and swayed sharply, and he couldn't help but vomit it out!
"The aircraft is indeed not as reliable as the steamship!" He Yuanzhang said embarrassedly.
Wu Guangyao refused to say that, the reason why he complained just now was because the airflow shaking violently on the way was that Wu Guangyao's heartbeat reached his throat.
Because current propeller (reciprocating) aircraft can only travel at low altitudes, it is seriously affected by airflow;
Moreover, the propeller aircraft is very slow. The propeller aircraft relies on the force generated when the propeller rotates to make the aircraft fly forward.
However, when the speed of the propeller and the flight speed of the aircraft reach a certain level, it is no longer possible to make the aircraft faster by accelerating the speed of the propeller.
Therefore, jet aircraft is the general trend, but it will take the mid-to-late 1950s to develop and mature technology, and the 1960s have become the only choice for medium and long distances.
Of course, if it was an "Comet" jet produced by England, Wu Guangyao would never take it, it would be a plane to hell.
What is truly reliable in this era is Boeing’s planes!
Wu Guangyao raised his left hand, and the diamond-inlaid gold watch made by Lao Fengxiang revealed the rich side, and diamonds and gold emitted a dazzling light.
It was 2:30 pm, and I obviously had to go to work in the company.
"Let's go back to the Global Building together!"
Back at the Global Building, Wu Guangyao first called London and asked the staff there to start looking for shipping companies that were interested in selling second-hand ships.
Global Shipping builds new ships, which does not mean giving up buying second-hand ships. After all, these years are the best time for the Far East shipping industry!
However, HSBC will no longer lend to Global Shipping in recent years, so it can only rely on Global Shipping's own profits to buy!
Wu Guangyao predicts that from 1952 to 1953, in addition to repayment, the profits in the past two years are estimated to be able to buy more than 10,000 tons of second-hand goods/oil tankers.
The Korean War ended in 1953, but shipping will not be depressed. It can only be said that freight rates will drop a little.
Therefore, from 1954 to 1955, the profits of global shipping in the past two years may be added to six or seven second-hand ships with 10,000 tons (because more than a dozen freighters were added, the freight costs were reduced, but the number of ships increased.).
If the Korean War was an opportunity for the Far East shipping industry, then the Second Middle East War that occurred in October 1956 was a shipping opportunity for European and American routes.
By then, the freight rates to Europe and the United States will be several times more than doubled, and Wu Guangyao's fleet will be doubled in one year.
Wu Guangyao always likes to sort out the memories in his mind frequently to avoid being forgotten.
As for the record, Wu Guangyao would not consider it at all, because his goal was too big, and there would inevitably be commercial spies targeting him.
If I record the future, wouldn’t I have to be dissected by those laboratories?
...........
After staying in Hong Kong Island for a week, Wu Guangyao had to say goodbye to his family and go to London.
The bumps along the way have no comfort, and the occasional violent bumps make people feel nervous!
After getting off the plane, the staff here drove to take Wu Guangyao to Kaila's new residence, a single-family European building.
The two have not met for four months, because Kaila has been pregnant for more than 9 months and it is no longer convenient to come to Hong Kong Island to meet Wu Guangyao.
When knocking on the door, a fifty-year-old London aunt opened. Wu Guangyao's sharp eyes quickly discovered that this aunt's uncle was not simple!
Because she and Kaila are a bit similar!
Wu Guangyao began to get nervous, and his mother-in-law's blood suppression made Wu Guangyao a little at a loss!
When the aunt saw that an Asian man was knocking on the door, her face quickly changed from calm to indifference, and she said, "Your name is Wu Guangyao?"
After hearing this sentence, Wu Guangyao was sure that this aunt must be Kaila's mother, at least a relative.
Wu Guangyao, who was in the wrong, naturally did not dare to act rashly, so he quickly responded and said hello!
Fortunately, Kaila also came to the door and threw herself into Wu Guangyao's arms regardless of her mother's side!
Kaila's arrival timely relieved Wu Guangyao's nervousness and embarrassment!
Just as the two were hugging each other, Kayla's mother's voice came: "Slow down, you're about to give birth, don't be over-exercising or nervous?"
The two separated and came upstairs. Kaila kept introducing to Wu Guangyao how she dealt with production and prepared the work.
During dinner, Wu Guangyao finally met Kaila's family!
Kayla's parents, Kayla's brother.
Because he was in a disadvantage, Wu Guangyao did not show his usual strong style, but instead seemed very honest!
And Kaira's family was obviously restraining their anger, and it was obviously Kaira's credit!
Kaila's mother, from the moment she opened the door, had no good attitude and had always been in a state of indifference.
Kaila's father is a gray-haired old man, but he has a little shrewdness in his eyes and seems to have room for negotiation for Wu Guangyao's attitude.
Kaila's brother is a white strong man, obviously the person who is most dissatisfied with Wu Guangyao. If Kaila hadn't been there, Wu Guangyao would feel that he would have a duel!
What a guy, I feel like a group of enemies have come to my territory!
In fact, this meeting was proposed by Wu Guangyao, but Kaila asked her to do her work in advance to avoid conflict!
The family has never understood why such an excellent and beautiful girl, Kaira, fell in love with an Asian, or even an Asian with a wife.
However, when they met Wu Guangyao, they had to admit that Wu Guangyao had enough charm to get a girl into it, even though he was an Asian.
