When the Lantern Festival takes away the last taste of Hong Kong, the new year officially begins for the Chinese people in Hong Kong.
Shortly after the Lantern Festival, three low-key branches of American companies quietly put up signs in the beevero building in Central Hong Kong, one called American Hampden machine trading company, one called American Nelson machine maintenance service company, and one American Jimei international trading company.
The first two machine related companies were established in the United States by Angie pelis, and the later Jimei international trading company was the Hong Kong Branch opened by Tang Boqi after he returned to the United States for registration and establishment.
Tang Boqi's speed is undoubtedly much faster than that of Angie pelis, who went to the United States for more than two months before starting to set up a Hong Kong Branch. He left Hong Kong before the Spring Festival and returned to the United States. When he came back after the Lantern Festival, he had registered and arranged all matters such as the U.S. head office and the Hong Kong Branch.
At this time, Tang Boqi was in the newly rented office of Jimei company in beevero building. In front of the newly appointed lawyer and secretary, he kindly asked why Tang Jingyuan, who had serious dark circles in his cousin's eyes, scolded a lot of ugly swearing in English. Fortunately, Tang Jingyuan didn't understand English, otherwise he might have turned against Tang Boqi long ago.
"Are you out of your mind? Dig song TIANYAO's workers? Song TIANYAO is now helping you order machines for production, but you actually dig each other's hands behind your back? That's how your uncle does business in Hong Kong?" Tang Boqi returned to Hong Kong happily, waiting to see the machines arrive in Hong Kong for production, and the products produced were imported into the American market in the name of Jimei international trading company, As a result, Tang Jingyuan happily told him that the Tang family had dug more than a dozen women workers from Song TIANYAO's factory to train their own workers. At the same time, they also helped other factory workers preparing to make wigs. After Tang Boqi listened to Tang Jingyuan's boastful words, he almost fainted in front of him. He roared at Tang Jingyuan angrily.
"You say he has other thoughts behind him. How can it be regarded as good intentions? Besides, the price of the Tang family's recruitment is high, and his workers are willing. If you like me, can't the workers earn a high salary?" Tang Jingyuan completely puzzled about Tang Boqi's anger: "my father said that we can compete with song TIANYAO for industry prestige by helping you train."
"If your father said this, it means he's as stupid as you!" Tang Boqi's handsome face was already ferocious, and his eyes were as fierce as a beast to eat people. What he said was scolded by Tang Jingyuan's father, Tang Wenbao: "Now everyone has to order song TIANYAO's machines to open the factory. Aren't you afraid that song TIANYAO will delay the machines that the Tang family is eager to make money for a year and a half?"
"Lao Dou and I asked a lawyer to study the contract for ordering machines and decided to do so after there was no problem. If the machines were delayed, the machine company would have to pay liquidated damages. Moreover, it is common for workers to start work in another factory in Hong Kong." Tang Jingyuan told Tang Boqi that his father was stupid and dissatisfied. He frowned and said to Tang Boqi: "When doing business in Hong Kong, which one can not do more and more with the right to speak?"
Tang boqiha laughed loudly and stared at Tang Jingyuan with mocking eyes: "Contract terms play the trick of word games? Even if I have not studied law and only economics, I can set aside one or two word games to prevaricate when drafting the contract. Well, since it comes to paying liquidated damages, have you ever thought that if song TIANYAO would rather pay liquidated damages than give you machines? Do you want to buy an advanced assembly line of more than two million Hong Kong dollars in the United States? Four sets Together, it costs nearly ten million Hong Kong dollars. Can you afford it? You want to say that song TIANYAO is not the only one who sells machines in the United States. Don't you ask me why the dark circles are serious? I tell you, it's because I have traveled all over Cleveland and Detroit to investigate song TIANYAO during my return to the United States. Apart from those large and medium-sized machine processing plants with constant orders, there are dozens left in the two places All the smaller factories have signed contracts with song TIANYAO's machine trading company registered in the United States to produce wig machines for his machine sales company in the United States. Each factory is currently responsible for producing two sets. Song TIANYAO's company has the priority of follow-up orders within one year. Do you know what the priority of follow-up orders is? That is, you want to surpass song TIANYAO's company, Go directly to American factories to buy machines. Song TIANYAO only needs to use this priority to ask the factory to continue to produce for him, and put your order behind him forever. If the factory dares to process for you, song TIANYAO will sue the factory for liquidated damages, which is more profitable than selling machines. This is called calculation compared with the method that your uncle only knows how to dig workers! "
Tang Jingyuan stared at his cousin: "that is to say..."
"That is to say, as long as song TIANYAO is willing, your factory may not be able to buy cheap machines in one year at the earliest." Tang Boqi rubbed his face hard, and his voice tried to slow down: "At the beginning, you called the United States and told me that this man named song TIANYAO is a very powerful guy, but up to now, I have always attached great importance to him. Why do you think you can treat him as an idiot? People are in the game and are fans?"
After that, Tang Boqi grabbed his coat and walked out. Tang Jingyuan turned and looked at Tang Boqi: "brother Qi, where are you going?"
Tang Boqi said without looking back: "where else can I go? Go to see song TIANYAO, explain the whole thing clearly and bring back the opportunity!"
……
Although Tang Boqi is Chinese, he was born and raised in the United States and has an American style. Unlike Tang Jingyuan and Tang Wenbao, Chinese businessmen like to beat around the bush.
But after encountering something, even if song TIANYAO is an opponent in the same industry, he will have the courage and magnanimity to come to the door and ask. If he can't get the answer, he will think about other methods.
When he drove to song TIANYAO's factory, he was seeing song TIANYAO leaving with Lou Fengyun and three little beauties. The cars had started and were ready to drive into the street. Tang Boqi immediately crossed his champagne Chevrolet Fleetline to song TIANYAO's black Ford 49 to block the other party's way.
Song TIANYAO opened the door from the driver's seat and got off. Tang Boqi also got off and stood in front of his car to look at Song TIANYAO.
"Your car has a good color. I heard that the Hong Kong car store only shipped ten new cars, 94000 Hong Kong dollars and 3000 US dollars. Did you drive back to Hong Kong from the United States?" song TIANYAO smiled and looked at the Chevrolet behind Tang Boqi.
Tang Boqi took a deep breath and ignored song TIANYAO's ridicule: "is there any discussion? If I tell you, I don't know what ah yuan and his son did, do you believe it?"
"Letter." song TIANYAO flicked the ash and tightened his windbreaker: "can I take a new car? I've got five people in my car. It's very crowded."
"Get in the car." Tang Boqi went outside the co pilot and helped song TIANYAO open the door: "I'll see you off."
"Don't give me a ride, sister Yun. Let her three take Mr. Tang's car, and then let Mr. Tang's car follow us." song TIANYAO turned back and said to Lou Fengyun, the co pilot.
Soon, Fu Jianiang, Shu Jianiang and Shiyin got into Tang Boqi's car hand in hand. Shu Jianiang and Shiyin sat in the back seat, while Fu Jianiang sat in the co pilot. They had only seen black cars. They were very curious about Tang Boqi's champagne car and bowed politely to Tang Boqi before getting on the bus.
"Where are you taking four women out?" Tang Boqi asked song TIANYAO first when he saw that song TIANYAO was going back to drive his Ford.
Song TIANYAO smiled at Tang Boqi and said, "don't you know? Huangji noodle house in Causeway Bay has a big sale in the cheap neighborhood today. In the past, a bowl of pork wonton noodles for eighty cents only needs fifty cents today, and a stewed egg, plus a dime, and an extra cup of mulberry parasitic egg tea to tonify the kidney."
"You take four women to tonify the kidney?" Tang Boqi saw song TIANYAO's smile and knew that the other party was joking.
However, when song TIANYAO drove in front, he followed him and found that song TIANYAO really drove towards Causeway Bay and finally stopped outside a noodle house with a Huang Ji sign.
"Really come to eat wonton noodles?" Tang Boqi looked at the noodle house and asked song TIANYAO, who was greeting four women to go to the noodle house.
Song TIANYAO bowed his head and lit a cigarette: "of course you have to take advantage of it. The mulberry parasitic egg tea in this noodle house is the most authentic, and the famous kidney tonifying effect is good."
Now before dinner, there are not many guests in the noodle family. Four beautiful women with different styles entered the noodle lobby and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
However, before the waiter came to greet him, a middle-aged fat man with a round figure, a round face and some flour on his clothes came out from behind the noodle house and greeted song TIANYAO affectionately:
"Ah Yao, you're here? You're so trustworthy. Talk on the second floor, talk on the second floor."
"I heard that uncle Qun's noodle shop is on sale, so I specially brought someone to take advantage." song TIANYAO smiled at the middle-aged fat man.
The middle-aged fat man patted his chest hard and shook his fat: "just eat, even if you bring all the workers in your factory to my noodle house, you can ensure that you can fit and feed."
The way he patted his chest and trembled with fat all over the body made the three little girls laugh.
When he got to an elegant room on the second floor, the middle-aged fat man first asked the waiter to come and bring dessert and snacks to several people. Then he went downstairs and wanted to help several people make wonton with bamboo noodles. Please try song TIANYAO's craft.
When the middle-aged fat man left, Tang Boqi asked, "who is it?"
"Isn't boss Huang siqun, who is going to do wig business in Chaozhou chamber of Commerce, very humble?" song TIANYAO said to Tang Boqi.
Tang Boqi nodded: "if you don't tell me, I thought he was a cook."
"In a city as small as Hong Kong, he has opened seven stores, and all of them are doing well. He has a fortune of one or two million over the years, but he still cooks noodles every day." song TIANYAO told Tang Boqi: "He has three sons and two daughters. He has been spoiled and used to wealth since childhood. He doesn't want to inherit his pastry craft, so he plans to open a wig factory for his children to learn to do business without so much hard."
"Not so hard business?" Tang Boqi looked at Song TIANYAO and looked down at himself: "if there is, I also want to learn."
"I'll help you think of one." song TIANYAO said seriously to Tang Boqi.
That serious expression could not help but make Tang Boqi serious and look at Song TIANYAO.
"You're pretty enough to open a male prostitute village and be your own boss and visitor. With your appearance, you must attract many rich women."
Tang Boqi slowly raised a middle finger towards song TIANYAO, turned the topic back, relaxed and restrained his face, and said to song TIANYAO, "ah Yao, it's ah Yuan who did the wrong thing to dig people. He really should be self-motivated, but the means should not be so dirty. I'm in charge of the wig business of the Tang family in the future. I won't let ah yuan do this again. Can we talk about it?"
"There's nothing wrong with taking the other's talent and becoming your own business. You're worried that I'll press your machine? How can it? Business is about making money out of harmony. The machine must pay you on time. Don't think so bad." song TIANYAO said to Tang Boqi lightly, "besides, you let me take a ride to drink tea and tonify the kidney. I won't take small things to heart."
Tang Boqi was reading song TIANYAO's words "harmony makes money", but what he thought in his heart was his means to Zhang Jiashi, which could never be regarded as harmony makes money.
