161【Far Eastern Exchange】

Soon, more than an hour later, Huo Yaowen drove downstairs to Yaowen Book Publishing Company, went upstairs and handed over the manuscript of the new book to Yao Wenjie, and asked him to help mail it to the United States to Bantan Book Publishing Company.

"Don't worry, chairman, I'll personally arrange for someone to deliver it later. ”

Yao Wenjie put away the manuscript, looked at Huo Yaowen who was drinking tea, hesitated for a while and said: "Chairman, Miss Zhang's book has now been printed in 30,000 copies, and it has not been issued yet. ”

Huo Yaowen frowned and said, "Didn't you say that? As long as my book is not cooperating with others, it will be printed first, didn't you sign a cooperation agreement last time?"

"Yes, I know this, I also let people get it, the second part of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", and the Chinese translation of "1999", I have people in the review to prepare for printing and publicity. ”

After explaining, Yao Wenjie said: "But what I mean is that we don't just publish books, but the company can expand some businesses, such as starting a weekly magazine. ”

"Weekly?" Huo Yaowen raised his eyebrows.

Yao Wenjie said: "Yes, nowadays, Hong Kong publishing houses or publishing companies, except for a few books that only publish books, most of them are published by weekly magazines, which can not only attract some writers, but also bring new books to the publishing house for a long time." ”

Nowadays, most of the publishing companies in Hong Kong almost have their own weekly magazines or magazines, and before the literary world made its fortune, it mainly relied on publishing, and later established the literary world weekly and newspapers, which can be regarded as occupying a place in Hong Kong.

Huo Yaowen pondered for a moment, nodded slightly, and said, "I'll think about it seriously, and I'll tell you when I've thought about it." ”

"Yes. Yao Wenjie smiled and agreed, it is difficult for a single publishing company to survive in Hong Kong, after all, there are only more than 4 million people in Hong Kong, and there are dozens of publishing companies, if there is no side business, then the competitiveness is too great

After leaving the company, Huo Yaowen was thinking about Yao Wenjie's words all the way, he actually thought about getting a weekly magazine or newspaper or something when he established a publishing company, but he didn't have money at the time, so he didn't think about it, and he was too busy to take care of it recently.

But after Yao Wenjie brought it up, he thought that it would be good to run a weekly magazine, and like the HKU Press, with orders from the Education Department, at least it could be sold every week.

However, he is not in a hurry to start a weekly or newspaper for the time being, and the most important thing now is to get the foundation right.

Now the foundation has basically prepared most of it, and the club qualification certificate has also been applied, and it has also been reported to the police station, and it has also been reported to the police station, and the other party has communicated with the people of the Hong Kong Education Bureau, and the other party is very much in favor of Huo Yaowen to set up this foundation, and agrees to provide a certain degree of help to the education foundation, but it must be supervised by the Education Administration.

Huo Yaowen agreed to this, and the supervision of the Education Department is actually only to supervise the foundation when screening the student list, after all, the most abundant student information in Hong Kong is the Education Department.

Circling around, the car slowly drove under a building.

Fok Yaowen got out of the car and went up to the foundation's office on the third floor, and as soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he saw the words "Hong Kong Education Foundation" written on the opposite wall

At this time, a young man walked out of the foundation, happened to see Huo Yaowen at the elevator entrance, and quickly stopped and shouted, "President!"

"Well, where are you going?" Huo Yaowen remembered that this person, named Liu Wentao, was recruited by him.

Liu Wentao said: "The people who sent the desk and chair came, and I went downstairs to pick them up." ”

Although the Foundation has already recruited more than a dozen employees, the office location has been finalized in the past few days, and the desks, chairs, and equipment have only been delivered today.

"Well, go ahead. ”

"Yes. Liu Wentao just pressed the elevator, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly turned around to stop Huo Yaowen and said, "President, someone just looked for Teacher Zhang." ”

Huo Yaowen frowned: "Someone is looking for one?"

Liu Wentao shook his head: "I don't know, it's an old man." ”

"I see, you go get busy. ”

Huo Yaowen was puzzled, turned around and strode towards the Foundation's office.

After a while, after walking to the foundation, he found that the employees were basically there, but he didn't find Zhang Chengyi, and after questioning, he learned that Zhang Chengyi had entered the office with an old man who had come to visit.

Huo Yaowen walked to Zhang Chengyi's office and did not open the door rashly, but knocked.

Zhang Chengyi, who was in the house, shouted, "Come in." ”

Huo Yaowen pushed the door in, and in addition to Zhang Chengyi, the other person was an unexpected person!

After seeing Huo Yaowen, Uncle Chang's face was stunned, and then he said with a smile: "Mr. Huo hasn't seen you for a long time. ”

"Uncle Chang, why are you here? ”

When Huo Yaowen saw Uncle Chang, the surprise in his heart was no less than that of the other party, he didn't understand whether Uncle Chang was sent by Lei Luo, since he met Lei Luo in March, it had been more than half a year, how could he not be surprised when he suddenly came to the Foundation at this time

Zhang Chengyi saw that the two knew each other, and seemed to have something to say, so he smiled and said, "Yaowen, you talk to this old gentleman first, and I'll go out first." ”

After speaking, Zhang Chengyi consciously walked out and closed the door.

Uncle Chang politely apologized: "Huo Yaowen is sorry, I take the liberty to disturb, I hope you will forgive me." ”

"It's okay, Uncle Chang, please take a seat. Huo Yaowen just said please take a seat, only to find that the office was empty, and there was not even a desk, let alone a chair, so he smiled awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I forgot that it wasn't long before I moved in, and the tables and chairs haven't been moved up yet." ”

"It's okay Mr. Huo, I'll leave after I finish speaking, it's okay to sit or not. Uncle Chang smiled.

"Uncle Chang, please speak. ”

Uncle Chang paused slightly, took out a check from his jacket pocket, handed it to Huo Yaowen and said: "That's the case, my lord is kind and charitable, and when I heard that Mr. Huo had set up this Hong Kong Education Foundation, he wanted to make a modest contribution, so he specially asked me to send a check for the foundation's preliminary preparations." ”

Cheque to send money?

Huo Yaowen was stunned for two seconds, then took it from the other party's hand, and when he looked at the amount, it was written that it was two million!

"Wouldn't this be too much?" Huo Yaowen was shocked in his heart, Lei Luo is really rich, he is two million as soon as he makes a move, no wonder some people say that he is a 500 million detective.

And Huo Yaowen now doesn't understand how Lei Luo knew that he set up this foundation, the most important thing is how Lei Luo could give two million to himself for nothing, although it is said to be used for Hong Kong education, but Huo Yaowen doesn't believe it.

"More than two million?" Uncle Chang smiled slightly.

More than two million?

Hehe, that's really shocking.

Huo Yaowen pondered for a few seconds, and then asked: "How could Mr. Lui donate two million to my small foundation? There are many charitable foundations in Hong Kong, such as the Po Leung Kuk Po Leung Foundation. ”

Uncle Chang shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, it's the master's decision." ”

Huo Yaowen pinched the check and received it, and it was not acceptable, although the foundation did not say that it would not accept donations from others, but this was Lei Luo's money, and he really couldn't figure it out for a while.

Uncle Chang took out another sealed letter and handed it to Huo Yaowen and said, "This is the letter that the master entrusted me to give to Mr. Huo." ”

gave the letter to Huo Yaowen, and Uncle Chang said again: "It's not too early, so I won't bother Mr. Huo to be busy, I'll go back first." ”

"I'll send you. ”

"No need, Mr. Huo. ”

After Huo Yaowen sent Uncle Chang away, he opened the letter and read it, looking at the content of the letter, his face gradually became serious and dignified

The Lei family.

Lei Luo took a cigar in his mouth and sat in the living room drinking tea while listening to Uncle Chang's report.

Uncle Chang said, "I have already handed over the check and letter to Mr. Huo by hand. ”

"He didn't ask why?" said Relo.

"I asked, just to ask the master why he didn't donate. ”

"Hmm. ”

Lei Luo nodded, put the cigar on the ashtray, and said, "Just give it, it's up to him whether he can seize the opportunity or not." ”

Uncle Chang said: "Master, if you help Mr. Huo so much, he may not appreciate it, and I haven't seen Miss have any contact with him in recent months." ”

Lei Luo glanced at Uncle Chang and said in a deep voice: "It doesn't matter to me whether he appreciates it or not, I only know that Su Zhen likes him, and that's enough." ”

On the other hand, when Huo Yaowen was hesitating whether to accept Lei Luo's two million checks, the Hong Kong Commercial Daily published a big news in the newspaper that would affect Hong Kong's future economy for decades.

"Surprise! Li Fu founded the first Chinese securities exchange, and the Far East Exchange will officially open at the end of this month!"
