Chapter 17 Tank Battle on sale
On 16 May, Li Guangyu's newspaper company was on the right track, and its daily circulation is currently about 80,000 copies; although there is still a certain gap between Ming Pao and Oriental Daily, Li Guangyu no longer worries about it at all, and what is lacking at present is the quality of news content, and Li Guangyu is expanding the newspaper's reporters, and as long as the quality of news comes up, Li Guangyu believes that the sales of the newspaper will increase to a certain extent.
Today, Li Guangyu did not go to the Xiangyu newspaper company in the Federal Building, but came to the Xingyu Game Company in the International Building, the company's second game has begun to sell, Li Guangyu came here today to learn about the company's sales, as well as to understand the company's recent development.
After Li Guangyu came to the game company, he asked the administrative manager Guo Qingya to inform the managers of various departments of the company to go to the conference room for a meeting half an hour later, and then went to Gan Qinglin's office.
"Qinglin, how is the company's recent development?"
Gan Qinglin saw Li Guangyu ask about the company's development and replied: "Chairman, due to the hot supply of Xingyu cube some time ago, the current market tends to be saturated, so far this month, we have developed the Canadian and South American markets, and we have only received a total of 25,000 orders in the world. However, our tank battle brought us good news, more popular than the Xingyu cube at that time, thanks to the chairman's creativity, you are a genius in the game industry, relying on your two games Our game company has become a large company in Xiangjiang in less than half a year. ”
Li Guangyu listened to Gan Qinglin's praise, although he despised himself in his heart, but his face was not red and his heart did not beat to accept Gan Qinglin's praise. Li Guangyu's face is getting thicker and thicker now, perhaps because of the experience of managing the company for more than half a year, and some skills in Li Guangyu's shopping mall. After chatting with Gan Qinglin about the company's situation for a while, they walked to the conference room together.
"Colleagues, I am busy with the affairs of Xiangyu Newspaper these days, so I care too little about the company, but under the leadership of Vice Chairman Gan Qinglin, the company has developed steadily, and I thank you for your efforts for the company. Since the Li family is going to enter the cultural industry and the media, film and television industry this year, seeing that the year is about to pass halfway, I will not be in the company for most of the time in the future, and I hope that everyone will continue to develop rapidly under the leadership of the vice chairman. The game company is the engine of Lee's company's outward expansion, and only when the company develops well, can I have the money to lay out the industry behind. ”
"Chairman, please rest assured, we will work hard to provide our own energy for the development of the company. Everyone said.
Li Guangyu continued: "I would like to ask the company a few things, our game development department should continue to expand the development team, and we must be able to develop two, three, or even multiple games at the same time. Because we can't guarantee that one game will be saturated and the next game will be picked up immediately, and we can't guarantee that every game will be well received by the market, so we must make a number of preparations. Our sales department should try to establish its own sales channels while cooperating with the sales of game companies' products, and we can't hand over all the lifeblood to outsiders. ”
Subsequently, Li Guangyu listened to the reports of various departments about the company's recent development, especially the reports of the finance and sales departments. As of the end of April, the company made a total profit of more than 690 million Hong Kong dollars, and the global orders for the tank war exceeded 50,000 units in just three days, because the price was 400 US dollars higher than the Xingyu cube, so after deducting various costs, Li Guangyu brought a profit of 800 US dollars, and the orders for these three days alone created a wealth of 250 million Hong Kong dollars for Li Guangyu.
Back in Gan Qinglin's office, Li Guangyu said to him: "Qinglin, this time Seiko Epson comes to talk about the issue of game licensing again, you ask Seiko Epson to help us build a printed circuit board, and in exchange we make concessions on the amount of game licensing, and at the same time promise to give priority to the purchase of its company's chips." ”
Li Guangyu began to lay out the electronics industry, starting with a simple printed circuit board, and in the future, there will be displays, transistors, and finally chips, Li Guangyu is also preparing to enter the electrical industry in the future, and he will also take a share of the mainland electrical market in the future.
Time flies, on May 26th, Gan Qinglin brought good news to Li Guangyu, after repeated negotiations between Xingyu Game Company and Seiko Epson Company Duolun, the company's tank battle is the same price as the previous game, and authorizes Seiko Epson to sell and produce in RB, in exchange for Seiko Epson to support Xingyu Game Company to establish its own printed circuit board factory related technology.
After receiving the report, Li Guangyu immediately instructed Gan Qinglin to dig up management talents, and at the same time consider the problem of the plant. Printed circuit boards are not like printing factories and assembly plants, which do not need to have too high environmental requirements, just buy a factory, it needs a clean and clean environment, so Li Guangyu is not ready to buy a factory this time, he is ready to buy land to build it himself, and buy a large place to move several factories together.
On June 4th, Xiangjiang in June was not as hot as the land of Sichuan and Shu. This evening, Lee Guangyu accepted the invitation of the Hong Kong Governor's Office to attend a banquet hosted by Hong Kong Governor MacLehose.
MacLehose's legendary Governor of Hong Kong, his tenure as Governor of Hong Kong is known to many as the MacLehose era. It was during his tenure that the ICAC was established, which completely reversed the image of the Hong Kong government among the citizens, and at the same time implemented a series of policies to ensure the living and learning conditions of the people of Hong Kong, and made indelible contributions to the development of Hong Kong.
At six o'clock in the evening, Lee Guangyu got into the Mercedes-Benz car and rushed to the Governor's Government House on Albert Road in the middle of Central on Hong Kong Island. Originally built in 1951, the building has served as the official residence of the Governor of Hong Kong and has remained unchanged for more than 100 years. Li Guangyu came to the banquet hall and saw that many people had already arrived in the hall at this time, and the familiar ones were chatting with each other in twos and threes.
Wu Zhiqi, the head of the Wu family, walked over to Li Guangyu and said: "Li Sheng, good evening, thank you for the help of your company's order, our company's performance has increased three times in the past six months, which is all thanks to your blessing, I hope we can cooperate for a long time." ”
"Wu Sheng, you can rest assured, as long as your company provides us with qualified products in accordance with the requirements of the contract, our company will not easily change partners, I think we can get along well in cooperation and benefit from each other." ”
Li Guangyu chatted with Wu Zhiqi for a while, and when he saw Luo Cheng coming in, he hurriedly went up to say hello. Under the recommendation of Luo Cheng, he met several unofficial members of the Legislative Council, and expanded Li Guangyu's network in the government.
Time passed, and halfway through the banquet, MacLehose asked Li Guangyu to go to the small living room for an interview. When Li Guangyu came to the small living room, he found that all the people at the meeting were all bigwigs, several leaders of Chinese-funded representatives, heads of several major foreign companies, the heads of the He family, the Luo family, the Li family, and the Gao family. It can be said that these dozen or so people here control all aspects of the more than 5 million people in Xiangjiang, and their every move will affect the lives of countless people in Xiangjiang.
Li Guangyu sat down at the back of the small meeting room and listened to the bigwigs talk about the economy and future development of Hong Kong, wondering how to explain his industrial park plan to MacLehose later. Seeing that the banquet was coming to an end, Li Guangyu stayed behind to communicate with the governor alone.
"Chairman Li, I heard your grandfather say that you are going to buy a piece of land in Tin Shui Wai to build an industrial park, what are your plans?" asked MacLehose to Li Guangyu.
"Your Excellency the Governor, I intend to purchase 100 hectares of industrial land for the construction of the company's factories and 50 hectares for commercial development. Li Guangyu replied.
MacLehose was surprised that Li Guangyu actually wanted such a large area, and asked puzzledly: "Does your company's factory want such a large area?"
"Not only will I not only build a new printed circuit board factory, but also my printing factory and Xingyu Electronics assembly factory will move in, and I will also build a toy factory in the future. The initial plan is to provide employment for 20,000 people in Heung Kong after the completion of each factory, and there will be other factory plans in the future. Li Guangyu said to MacLehose.
MacLehose is very supportive of Lee Guangyu's construction of the industrial zone in Tin Shui Wai, which can not only solve the employment problem of some local people, but also promote local economic development.
"The industrial land in Tin Shui Wai is HK$20 psf, and the commercial land is 50 Hong Kong dollars per square foot as compensation for your local economy," MacLeho said. I will ask the Development Bureau to cooperate with you in this land purchase. ”
After talking to MacLehose about his plan and getting the results he wanted, Lee opened the Government House.
