Volume II, Section 102 Interlude

"Are you aware of this problem too?" Sha Zhengyang laughed.

"It's a brand new market, so we need to start from scratch, which seems difficult, but it's also an opportunity for us to monopolize the market in Handu and Jiazhou all at once, at least for a while, and then other cities. ”

"Zhengyang, have you considered the transportation cost and radiation range of bottled water?" Thunder frowned.

"The water dispenser is better, bottled water is a fast-moving consumer product, a bucket a few days, like Jiazhou, this transportation cost is too high, I don't think it's a good idea." Unless you can also set up a factory in Jiazhou, in my judgment, the factory in Yintai can at most meet the needs of Handu and the relatively nearby cities of Anxiang, Zhaoyang, Bazhou, and Wuyang, and I am afraid that the transportation cost will be a little expensive no matter how far away. ”

There is some truth in what Thunder said, if you want to look at it from the perspective of popularity, the radiation distance will indeed be largely constrained by the cost of transportation.

However, Sha Zhengyang also knows that in the early stage of bottled water, the combination of water dispenser is still a luxury to a large extent, except for a few families with good family conditions, more government agencies, enterprises and institutions are using.

A bucket of mineral water often costs tens of yuan, and twenty to fifty have been sold.

This is not 20 years from now, the current consumption level of 20 yuan is at least equivalent to 200 yuan in 20 years, that is purely enjoying it as a consumer fashion.

When it begins to gradually spread in three or five years, the natural water industry should also complete the initial original accumulation and market layout, and march into other cities and even other provinces.

Sha Zhengyang said his reasons, and Thunder also reflected it.

Now in the southern Guangdong has not yet fully flourished bottled water, in Hanchuan these inland areas must be a new thing, first the bottled water, and then to promote bottled water, this is the most correct way to promote.

"Zhengyang, it seems that you are confident, so I am relieved. Thunder adjusted his seat, "Let's go, what's going to eat at night?"

"How about the hot pot?" Sha Zhengyang said with a smile: "I'll call Caizi and Zhenggang too." ”

As soon as Sha Zhengyang talked about Feng Zicai, Lei Ting remembered something, "By the way, don't say it, then I really found someone in Hong Kong who is willing to publish." ”

"Oh, really?" Sha Zhengyang was also surprised, he was just trying his luck by the way, but he didn't expect that there would be such a good thing.

"Well, of course, you don't expect to make much money, the Hong Kong market is so big, the number of prints is limited, but how many you can earn is a few. Thunder nodded, "When the time comes, the money will be paid according to the number of prints, didn't you say that you hope this book can be adapted? I also entrusted a cousin of mine to help give it a try, maybe it can really be liked by stars like Jackie Chan or Sammo Hung ?"

"Does your cousin have a way?" Sha Zhengyang heard Lei Ting mention, he has four cousins, one of whom is engaged in the film industry, which also makes Sha Zhengyang quite curious.

I don't know if this guy shines in the golden age of Hong Kong films? But obviously, there are tens of thousands of people engaged in the film industry in Hong Kong, except for the few people in front of the stage, Sha Zhengyang, who knows some, and more behind-the-scenes figures and characters in the audience, Sha Zheng**, don't know about it.

So Sha Zhengyang was just curious, and didn't have too many other ideas.

He used to be engaged in management at Shaw Brothers, and later worked in the famous brand Pan's Debao, but now Debao is out of play, but Pan Disheng admires him very much, he has stopped working in the film industry, and entered the creation of Dickson, but he still has some connections in the film industry. Thunder's words are not without pride.

This time he is ready to set up a company in Hong Kong, and he also invited his cousin to join the shares, and his cousin is willing to contribute 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, so that plus the one million raised by Thunder, a total of 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars.

"Oh, so your cousin isn't a simple person. Sha Zhengyang nodded, "I hope that no matter how much money it can be sold for, as long as someone is willing to buy it for adaptation, it will be good news." ”

Audi 100 skillfully drove out of the airport, and Lei Ting's eyes were a little more emotional, "The inland is still too backward, needless to say Hong Kong, I feel that Guangzhou and Shenzhen are like two worlds here, and the pace of life there is half a beat faster than here." ”

"Take your time, you should know that Deng Gong's southern tour shook the whole country, Hanchuan is located inland, and it will definitely not be comparable to Nanyue, but the impact will soon be transmitted. Sha Zhengyang didn't squint, and drove steadily, like an old driver.

"It's changed a lot, Zhengyang, it feels like you've been driving a car for many years. Lei Ting sighed again, "Deng Gong's southern tour has caused a lot of repercussions in Hong Kong, and it is estimated that my uncle will be tempted by this." ”

"It seems that I told you that there is a play to move your uncle's electronics factory to Hanchuan?" Sha Zhengyang raised his eyebrows and glanced at Lei Ting.

"Not necessarily, how can you not talk about the conditions if you do business?" Lei Ting laughed, "However, Zhengyang, I have studied the issue of the pound exchange rate that you asked me on the phone, and I have also found someone to discuss it together, don't say that it is really possible, of course, the premise is that the Federal Republic of Germany can withstand the pressure of the United Kingdom." ”

"Since you have analyzed this point with experts, you should know that the Federal Republic of Germany is also in a hurry now, and the annexation of the GDR seems to have swelled all of a sudden, but it is difficult to digest, the economic gap between the two sides is very large, and it will take at least several years for the Federal Republic of Germany to slowly restore its balance, and it is difficult to let them help the British. ”

Sha Zhengyang is very sure of this point, "And the central bank of the Federal Republic of Germany has always been independent and does not buy much into the accounts of the European Community, and the European exchange rate mechanism is actually trapped by the Germans, and it has no good opinion of the United Kingdom, and it will not sacrifice its own interests to support the British." ”

"But the British are very tough, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Norman Lamont, is very adamant,......"

Lei Ting didn't know where Sha Zhengyang's news came from, Sha Zhengyang only revealed a little vaguely to him, that is, his former boss Cao Qingtai had a classmate in the Financial Research Center of the State Council, and then he refused to say more.

Thunder is not easy to ask deeply, this kind of news from the top, even if it is full of uncertainty, can also reveal a lot of information, which is why he and his partners in Hong Kong are excited.

After all, the research between countries is certainly much stronger than the research of ordinary enterprises or individuals, and the country's information sources are definitely not comparable to those of ordinary financial institutions.

His partner also repeatedly reminded Thunder not to ask too much, especially when China and Britain are still fighting in the dark over the handover of Hong Kong in five years.

"Well, the Germans are more old-fashioned, and the head of the Bundesbank, Helmut Schlesinger, has always been skeptical of the fixed exchange rate of the European currency, and it is a pipe dream to expect him to save the hated British at the expense of his own country. Sha Zhengyang's attitude was extremely positive, and then quickly asked, "Do you have any ideas?"

"Hehe, a friend of mine, a friend of one of my cousins, has an interest in this, I discussed it with him, and he agrees with you, so ......" Thunder laughed as well.

"What about you?" Sha Zhengyang asked directly.

"It's just a little fun, since my uncle is willing to lend me money, then my own 200,000 yuan, not much, no less, so I plan to play with my friend, his family conditions are good, and he is ready to take one million out to play. Thunder's face showed excitement, "I'll also entrust him to play with him." ”

Those who can take out a million to play this must be the rich second generation, but there are many incognito families in Hong Kong, plus the branches of some big families, usually do not show the dew, but the background is not bad, of course, it cannot be compared with the Li, Bao, Huo, He, Guo and other families, but there is still no lack of strength.

Shaking his head, Sha Zhengyang asked again, "Are you going to increase leverage?"

Thunder smiled slyly: "It depends." ”

Sha Zhengyang knew that Lei Ting's character would be very conservative even if he increased leverage, so he didn't ask much, not to mention that 1.2 million Hong Kong dollars was simply an insignificant small wave in such a big wave, and it was not enough to change anything.

"It's good to be careful yourself, but this kind of short selling can't make much money, and it's rare to have a profit of 20%. Sha Zhengyang diverted the topic, "By the way, if the factory is built, you will be stationed here, right?"

"Well, it's basically going to be permanent, but it depends on the situation, if my uncle really wants to invest here, then he will definitely send some managers, maybe I can also entrust management." Thunder laughed.

"I'm afraid you can't let go in the next year or two, this is your business after all. Sha Zhengyang shook his head, "And I estimate that this industry will usher in an explosive period next year, especially if the natural hall water industry makes a reputation, the demand for water dispensers will definitely be great, and there will be no less followers, you should consider expanding the production line to ensure that the production capacity seizes the market." ”

"I know that. Thunder lowered the passenger seat and lay down comfortably, "I squinted for a while and called me home." ”

Before the words fell, Sha Zhengyang's phone rang, and it was connected, it was Sun Yan who came, and they made an appointment to have dinner together in the evening.

As soon as he heard the voice of a girl, Thunder suddenly fell asleep, sat up with a hula, and pricked up his ears to listen.

Seeing Lei Ting's sly smile, Sha Zhengyang didn't want to talk to Sun Yan on the phone, so he said that he would have dinner together in the evening, and said that he had a few classmates and friends.

Sun Yan was obviously very happy to hear it on the phone, and agreed one after another, estimating that she would go to dress up and choose clothes immediately.
