Chapter 982: Tianshan Snow Lotus

……

Although Liu Dong has made his fortune in less than two years, the industries he has crossed have developed from the jewelry industry at the beginning, to the hotel, tourism, real estate, Internet, finance, media, retail, if you count the South American business group, you also have to add steel, mining, transportation, petrochemical, and now if you annex Hong Kong Swire, you can also count the aviation industry and shipping, as well as trade!

More than a dozen large industries, dozens of branches, Liu Dong has been involved in enough industries, except for a limited number of industries, most of them have just started, so it is far more beneficial to devote more energy to these industries than blind horizontal expansion!

Moreover, Hong Kong's Swire Pacific's beverage department is more of a subordinate distributor of Coca-Cola, without the brand support of Coca-Cola, Swire Beverage's performance will decline like an avalanche at any time.

Even if Swire Sugar and Swire Beer, which are not too big under Swire Pacific Hong Kong, Liu Dong's interest is more than Swire Beverage!

Feng Jianhui didn't know Liu Dong's inner thoughts too well, after listening to what Liu Dong just said, he thought that his little boss had finally begun to pay attention, but soon he knew that he had made a wrong idea!

"Hasn't Wu Zhe come back yet?"

"The auction won't end until four o'clock in the afternoon, so it should be almost now!" Feng Jianhui looked at his watch.

"Tell him not to forget the acquisition of Shangyuan Group and Yangming Group, which will be signed soon. Don't let someone else pick a peach at the last minute!"

"I understand!" Feng Jianhui said a little helplessly.

It seems that the courage of this little boss has not diminished in the slightest. I didn't even think about stopping my expansion!

After explaining to Feng Jianhui. Liu Dong walked out of the company, but he didn't expect that as soon as he got in the car, his mobile phone rang.

Looking at the strange number above, Liu Dong took it after a little hesitation.

"Hello?"

"Stinky boy, where are you now?"

The old-fashioned words made Liu Dong instantly surprised: "Master, do you still know how to use the phone?"

In his impression, although the cheap master is not a broken temple, there is nothing related to electricity in the Wuxin Zen Temple.

"Joke, I can't do anything?" said the Wuxin monk with disdain.

"Alright. No matter where you are now, do something for me!"

"Okay, master, you said, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it for you!" Liu Dong said immediately.

"Don't worry, it's not too difficult for you...... I need a book of Tianshan Snow Lotus that is more than 100 years old, you go and pick it back for me!"

"Hundred-year-old Tianshan Snow Lotus, master, what do you want it for? This thing is not easy to find!" Liu Dong said in surprise.

It may not have been too difficult to find such precious medicinal materials a few hundred years ago, but now, with the mercenary herb pickers, the wild Tianshan Snow Lotus is almost extinct, just like the Changbai Mountain ginseng! It is difficult to find a wild snow lotus of twenty or thirty years. Not to mention a hundred years?

"If it's hard to find, you have to look for it, who will let you kid do it. If you have to bring people back, the old man can help you, but you have to go to wipe your butt yourself!" said Monk Wuxin unceremoniously.

From the cheap master's words, Liu Dong quickly understood what the other party was talking about!

"Master, can you heal that old man's injury?" Liu Dong said with surprise and joy.

"Of course it can be cured, but if you can't find a snow lotus that is more than 100 years old, that kid won't live for 5 years!

"That kid?" Liu Dong smiled bitterly.

However, according to the age of his master, the other party can indeed be regarded as a small character!

"I know, master, I'll leave the matter of finding Xuelian to me, but I need time!" Liu Dong said.

"Enough time, just find it within three months!"

After finishing speaking, the monk Wuxin hung up the phone irresponsibly.

Listening to the blind sound in the mobile phone, Liu Dong couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Located in the hinterland of the Eurasian continent, the largest land on the earth, the Tianshan Mountains span China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan from east to west, with a total length of 2,500 kilometers, an average width of 250-350 kilometers from north to south, and a maximum width of more than 800 kilometers.

The Tian Shan Mountains are the world's largest independent zonal mountain system, the world's farthest mountain system from the ocean and the largest mountain system in the world's arid region.

The part located in China alone is more than 1,700 kilometers long, covering an area of more than 570,000 square kilometers, accounting for about one-third of the entire area of Xinjiang.

In the face of such a huge mountain range that spans most of China's borders, even if Liu Dong has relics Yuanguang to rely on, he is not confident that he can find a snow lotus that is more than 100 years old in three months!

"It looks like we're going to set off quickly!" Liu Dong said in his heart.

Originally, he thought that when the dust settled on the negotiations with Swire Group, he would return to Quancheng to supervise the reconstruction and expansion of the steel plant, but now it seems that not only Quancheng could not go back, but he also did not have the opportunity to participate in the negotiations with Swire Group!

However, before leaving, there were still some things that needed to be explained, so Liu Dong quickly got out of the car and walked back to the company!

"Dong Liu?"

Looking at Liu Dong who went and returned, Feng Jianhui was a little unclear!

After walking to the edge of the sofa next to him and waving his hand to let Feng Jianhui sit down, Liu Dong said: "I'm leaving Hong Kong tomorrow, so I'll be in charge of negotiating with Swire Group!"

"I understand!"

Feng Jianhui didn't ask Liu Dong why he left, he always remembered that he was just an executor!

It is precisely because of Feng Jianhui's duty that Liu Dong will pay more and more attention to him.

"With regard to the three divisions of the Swire Group in Hong Kong, as well as many other subsidiaries, we can give them back the shares in the beverage division, Swire Sugar and Swire Beer, but they have to be exchanged for shares in other Swire Pacific Hong Kong properties, and as for compensation, you can talk to them, but it must not be less than $2 billion!"

"Understood, but after the industrial division is completed, how should we manage the company?"

"It's definitely not okay to call it Swire Hong Kong again!" After finishing speaking, Liu Dong was silent for a while, and said randomly, "In this way, after the completion of the property division, Swire Hong Kong's real estate division, including Swire Centre, Pacific Place and Festival Walk, as well as all its properties, will be handed over to Huayang Group, and 15 hotels in Hong Kong and the United Kingdom will be handed over to K. Wah Hotel Group." ”

“…… Cathay Pacific Airways Limited, together with Dragonair, Air Air and Swire's 17 subsidiaries in Hong Kong, Mainland China, Taiwan, Canada and Vietnam, are engaged in ground handling, cargo handling, engineering maintenance and aviation catering.

“…… Swire Hong Kong's trading division has also been spun off to form a separate global trading group!"

Originally, Liu Dong did not want to occupy the trading department of Hong Kong Swire, but he owned the Darren Group, which was engaged in the shipping industry, and trade was obviously inseparable from ships, and out of interdependence, Liu Dong kept this department.

Moreover, Swire Hong Kong's car sales system covering the entire Greater China region is exactly what Liu Dong needs in the future!

As for Swire Resources' more than 200 stores in Greater China, including the three major retail chains of Marathon, GigaSports and Catalog, it is more like incidental!

Compared to Swire Hong Kong's trading department, the marine department is the one that makes Liu Dong hesitate the most!

Having been engaged in the marine service industry for nearly two centuries, Swire Marine has become a large-scale maritime group with Hong Kong as its hub and global radiation.

Swire Pacific, part of Swire Pacific Corporation, has one of the world's largest and most modern offshore energy support fleets to support all exploration and extraction activities. The company's fleet consists of more than 70 vessels, including anchor supply tugs, platform supply vessels, hydrographic and seismic research vessels, as well as vessels for maintenance, diving and remote control support.

It is an unobtrusive company with locations in Australia, Azerbaijan, Brunei, Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, India, Malaysia, New Zealand, Nigeria, Qatar, Scotland and the United Arab Emirates. With the exception of North America, the company's vessels operate in all major oil-producing regions.

This is a large maritime group with total assets of more than one billion pounds!

However, in addition to Swire Marine, there is also the United Shipping Group, which is mainly based in Hong Kong, although Hong Kong United Shipping Group also has a stake in Hutchison, but Swire has a controlling stake in it.

The Hong Kong United Shipyard Group's business includes the most modern ship repair facilities in Asia, as well as the largest and most modern tugboat fleet, and the subsidiary Hong Kong United Dockyard Marine Division is the only member of the International Salvage Association in Hong Kong!

One of the most important reasons for leaving Hong Kong's Swire Pacific marine department is this salvage business, with which Liu Dong will salvage shipwrecks on the seabed, and at the same time cover up the many shipwrecks inside his mustard seed space, and he will have the most convenient means!

Moreover, the Hong Kong United Dockyard also has a shipbuilding capacity of 100,000 tons of freighters, which is planning to vigorously enter the marine transportation industry for Liu Dong, and the fertilizer water will naturally not flow into the fields of outsiders!

The remaining engineering department of Hong Kong United Shipping is the most entangled by Liu Dong, because this is a company that is not too closely related to shipping.

The division provides integrated ground E&M engineering services and steel engineering, ranging from the assembly and erection of structural steel and heavy industrial equipment to the installation and certification of high- and low-voltage electrical systems.

The most suitable place for it is not Hong Kong, because there is almost no heavy industry here, but there is more business in the mainland, especially the Quancheng No. 2 Steel Mill, which Liu Dong is preparing to vigorously rebuild in the mainland, which is completely in line with the business of the engineering department of United Shipping!
