508 [Chinese guy who circles money]
3 June 1992.
Early morning, Los Angeles Wharf, USA---
The Port of Los Angeles is located at the tip of San Pedro Bay on the southwest coast of California in the southwestern United States, bordering the eastern side of the Pacific Ocean and is the second largest container port in the United States.
At this time, three men in suits were beckoning the American porters to carry the goods off the large cargo ship.
One of the three people is a dead-faced man in a straight suit, who looks polite but does not smile, one is a big fat man with a smile on his face, ingots mouth, squinting eyes, as if he is very festive when he sees anyone, and the last one is a ghost, with a big nose and yellow hair, a typical British appearance.
These three people are Bi Wenfeng, the sharpest Hong Kong royal under Song Zhichao, Qi Wanda, the boss of Wanda Foreign Trade and Logistics Company, and Luo Bason, the boss of Wanxin International Investment.
The three of them were summoned to the United States by Song Zhichao, to be precise, they were summoned here to fight a tough battle, and the goods they loaded from Hong Kong this time were "Vanke VCD".
Song Zhichao didn't plan to open a VCD factory here, so he loaded a whole ship of VCDs from the mainland--- with more than 30,000 units, entered Hong Kong, and then shipped them to the United States through the free trade port of Hong Kong.
Song Zhichao's calculation is very simple, if Vanke VCD can be successfully listed in the United States this time, defeat Sony and other old brands, and sit firmly on the first throne of audio and video products, then it will consider shipping VCDs in the future in a steady stream of products in exchange for Yankee dollars.
It's just that the first shot hasn't been fired yet, and the VCD hasn't been put on the shelves yet, but it has been sniped by the big brand Sony, for many people, Song Zhichao and his brands have an unpredictable fate, and if they don't do it well, they will sink into the sand and die in the United States.
As Song Zhichao's subordinates, whether it is Robertson, Bi Wenfeng, or Qi Wanda, they are all worried, feeling that this time Song Zhichao ventured to land in the United States, it is inevitable that he is not well prepared, and he is a little hasty--- although he relied on the king Michael Jackson to advertise his own brand Vanke VCD, which caused a sensation, but the higher he was praised, the faster he fell and died.
What's more, this time the Sony brand has cut prices, Song Zhichao's Vanke VCD seems to have no advantage in price, you sell 2000 US dollars, people also sell 2000 US dollars, people are still an old brand with guaranteed quality, what about you, in addition to the novelty of the product, there is nothing but the support of the king, how can you fight with others?
It was a shame for him to be hired by these Chinese people, and the goods they were carrying were so heavy, so he deliberately slipped his hand while carrying them, and threw the box to the ground, and then, with his wrist moving, complained, "Oh, damn it, it's too heavy, these things!"
Beside him, a black man who was good with the white worker followed suit, "yes, this damn Vanke VCD is too heavy, don't you ship them all the way to the United States just to earn us Americans' money? In this case, it's good to give us more wages!"
"Raise your salary!" shouted the people around him.
"Oh God, what are they doing?" Robertson came from a financial background, where had he ever seen such a scene.
Qi Wanda's English is not very good, and he can't understand what they are shouting.
Only Bi Wenfeng looked at the gang of ghosts coldly, and suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at the white worker who was encouraging others and said, "You, was you the first to ask for a wage increase just now?"
The white worker with a freckled face turned his face, pouted, looked at Bi Wenfeng very hungrily, and said, "It's me, what's the matter? You bite me!"
"I don't bite you, I just want to tell you that what you just did has violated the temporary employment law of the United States--- we have already signed a contract for wages and salaries when we hire you, if you are not willing to continue working, we can sue you for violating the agreement, pay you double the fine, or go to jail. ”
White Workers: "......"
A little confused, he doesn't know much about the law, he just thinks that these Chinese are easy to bully, but he didn't expect people to talk to him about the "temporary employment law", is there such a law?
Without waiting for the white worker and his friends to figure out what this "temporary employment law" was, Bi Wenfeng pointed to the white man's nose again and said: "But this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is to --- the box of goods that you just deliberately slipped and fell...... "Finger moved down and pointed to the oversized box.
White worker: "What do you mean by that?"
"I mean, there are a total of ten VCDs in this box, and the market price of each is $2,000, and ten units are $20,000, that is, if the goods in this box are damaged because of your deliberate destruction, you will have to compensate us 20,000 yuan!"
White Workers: "......"
Damn, I only make a dozen dollars a day, and now I have to pay 20,000 yuan?
Completely frightened.
"Ahem, which eye did you see that I fell to the ground on purpose, I didn't! I, I fell with a slippery hand!" The white workers did not dare to ask for a wage increase, and tried to explain and dissociate themselves.
Next to them, those ghosts who were originally instigated by the white workers to demand a salary increase have no righteousness at the moment, and they are like avoiding the plague, widening the distance between them and the white workers.
Seeing this, Bi Wenfeng sneered and was about to speak, when suddenly, the mobile phone he was carrying rang.
Bi Wenfeng glanced coldly at the white worker, and answered the phone here.
Soon, he hung up the phone and said to the white worker, "I'm sorry, I was wrong. ”
White Workers: "......"
I thought that the other party was afraid of himself--- after all, this is the territory of the Americans, and things have taken a turn for the better.
Immediately afterwards, I heard Bi Wenfeng say: "I made a mistake in the calculation just now, the original market sales price of this VCD was $2,000 per unit, but now the price --- has risen, $3,000 per unit!"
White Workers: "......"
I almost choked to death.
......
Los Angeles Pier ---
Watching the group of American workers carefully carry the boxes loaded with VCDs one by one, it seems as if what they are holding in their hands is not a box, but a child, a baby, something important and nothing that can be more important.
No one complains anymore, and no one complains about tiredness anymore.
No one asked for a wage increase.
To be precise, when everyone knew that the box they were holding was worth $30,000, these dock workers, who were used to odd jobs, were shocked.
You know, 30,000 is not a small amount in the United States, don't look at the United States seems to be a paradise, but there are not many people who are really rich, and most of them are still poor.
In fact, at this moment, Bi Wenfeng was also full of surprise, as well as Luo Zhiche and Qi Wanda--- when they learned that after being oppressed by Sony, Song Zhichao actually raised the VCD with the original price of 2,000 US dollars to 3,000 US dollars.
The first thought was, is he crazy?
......
In fact, at this time, Song Zhichao asked Charlie to publish an advertisement, and the theme of the advertisement was one sentence: Vanke VCD retails $3,000 in the United States!
Is he crazy?
As soon as possible, the American people went crazy, to be precise, they were mad by Song Zhichao's unscrupulous behavior of collecting money.
$3,000?
What is this concept?
$3,000 is enough to go to Hawaii in the United States for a vacation, go to Las Vegas for a good gamble, and go to Gothesas for a hunting cowboy......
In short, $3,000 is a lot of money for many Americans.
What's more, now Japan's Sony is engaged in price reduction promotions, but this Chinese Song Zhichao is raising prices vigorously--- what is the reason?
Could it be that his VCD is set with gold and diamonds?
At this point, the American people are outraged, go die, no one will buy your VCD!
Damn the Chinese guys, crazy about money!
