"Thank you."
Before the words fell, there was thunderous applause in the audience...... How is this possible?
It wasn't really a meeting, and no one was holding a sign that said "applause here."
Everyone in An Liangtang didn't know what to say. Well, some of them didn't understand what new era, what new atmosphere, what new deeds, and what the four modernizations were, which is really like falling into the clouds.
The fourth sister of Jinfeng tugged at the corner of her husband's clothes and asked softly: "In charge, what is enterprise?" β
A college student like Fifth Brother Hongqi naturally understood it, so he also lowered his voice and replied: "The second master's meaning is to reorganize Hongmen into a company. In this company, everyone has to follow the rules. β
"Rules?" Mrs. Li said suspiciously, "Doesn't our Hongmen also have rules?" β
"Lady, this is different!" Li Jie explained, "The rules of our Hongmen are the rules of the rivers and lakes, and the rules that the second master said are the rules of making money. β
The so-called enterprise is to establish a set of profit-oriented scientific management system.
To put it bluntly, the goals of dynamic social groups like An Liangtang are mixed and chaotic: they are both politically motivated and financially motivated, and they also bear the obligations of charities and grassroots governments, and defend the legitimate and illegal interests of their members.
Of course, they are not good men and women, and will not hesitate to use violent means to achieve their goals.
However, these goals are not only contradictory, but also inherently contradictory. For example, big Western corporations do invest in certain politicians, but they do demand a pass-in. And the United States Hongmen aid is invincible, what is the return so far?
Because of the relationship between vision and knowledge, the middle and lower class gangs of Hongmen do not have a deep understanding of this kind of chaos. However, at the level of Situ Meitang and Huang Jishi, it was found that there were structural contradictions in Hongmen's system.
Although they do not have this theoretical level to summarize, they do understand this truth in practice. Therefore, Situ took the initiative to let the Zhi Gong Party and Hongmen cut it off.
Huang Jishi's face also became serious, and he made eye contact with Situ Meitang.
These two old brothers who have been fighting the world together since Los Angeles naturally have a certain tacit understanding. In fact, how could today's incident happen without the tacit consent of this big leader?
After the exchange was over, An Liangtang's military advisor hugged his fists and said: "It's really better to listen to your words than to read a book for ten years." Yuan Erye is worthy of being a top student at New York University. So now that Brother Li is gone, dare to ask how do you arrange the affairs of Baisui Mountain? β
"Uncle Xiang, you have a good question. I don't know if you've read the agreement I signed with Brother Ziyi? β
Yuan Yanqian didn't wait for him to speak, so he said directly: "That agreement is written in black and white, and Brother Ziyi and Ziyi will each contribute assets worth five thousand US dollars, and each party will hold half of the shares. But the power of business decision-making is lower. β
"A few days ago, I entrusted Brother Ziyi to take care of Baisui Mountain. Now that he has 'voluntarily' transferred his equity to Anliang General Hall, it is natural that he will have to take back this power in the future. β
"As for how it was arranged? Originally, it was a trade secret under the world, but the Hongmen family in the world is one, and it is not hidden from the next. β
"Centennial Hill will adjust the shareholding structure and at the same time hire Mr. Louis Baker as chairman and general manager, in fact, Centennial Hill was originally registered in his name. Oh, he's the grandson of Mr. George Baker, and ...... good friend under him."
Huang Jishi couldn't help but ask: "Second Master Yuan, the Mr. George Baker you are talking about is the partner of the Morgan consortium?" β
Master Yuan glanced at him, nodded and said, "Master Xiang, you are right, it is that Mr. Baker!" β
Mr. Baker Sr. managed or authorized the hosting of more than 50 enterprises at the same time, which is also a record. So his grandson is now the chairman of both NYPR and Baisui Mountain, which is a small CASE.
Even if the Hongmen disciple heard "the grandson of the partner of the Morgan consortium", his face couldn't look good. How could they not know what this status meant when they were begging for a living in New York?
Unless it's a shot or two scattered, they can't help this kind of big guy.
Someone in the hall couldn't help but protest and said, "Second Master Yuan, would you rather believe in foreigners than our own brothers?" β
Nonsense, of course Lao Tzu believes...... Foreigners. Foreigners can make Baisui Mountain listed, what can you "own brothers" do? Is it used as a cover for the trafficking of moonshine?
Yuan Yanqian looked at the person who spoke with the eyes of a fool, and snorted softly in his nose.
Disdainful of answering this question, he turned his head and said to the lord: "Big dragon head, naturally I won't let my brothers suffer in the future." β
"As I said below, after the 100-year-old mountain, there will be a capital increase and share expansion, and the total share capital will reach 50,000 US dollars!"
He stretched out the five fingers of his right hand and his left hand...... Well, of course, he didn't put it behind him, and looked around at everyone: "Another 20,000 US dollars will be injected here, and then there will be 20,000 US dollars left for the brothers in Anliang Main Hall." Part of it is the employee shares given to the insiders of Baisui Mountain for nothing, which can be regarded as a reward for their hard work during this time. And the other part......"
"It's just that the sense of rank is not interested?"
As soon as he said this, the expressions of the people in the hall changed. Some were overjoyed, while others were even more ugly.
There is no need to ask, the former are all close to Li Jie, and most of the children of his disciples work in Baisui Mountain; And the latter is someone who has nothing to do but wants to take advantage of this opportunity to make a profit.
"Second Master Yuan, he is really a good man who is righteous and thin!"
"Second Master Yuan, this is not fair!"
"Second Master Yuan, how much does this share cost?"
At this time, the Zhongyi Hall was lively, some people openly thanked Yuan Erye for his high righteousness, some people complained aggrievedly about Yuan Erye's partiality, and some people were impatient to ask for shares directly.
"Silence!" Huang Junshi saw that the big guy was making a little trouble, and immediately shouted, "This is Zhongyi Hall, not a vegetable market." Of course, this kind of major event has to be decided by the big leader himself, and you all shut up! β
He turned around and hugged his fist towards Situ Meitang and said, "Big dragon head, what do you think?" β
"Hmm......" The big man of An Liangtang groaned for a while, and said slowly, "It's a big matter, let's discuss it later." β
He stood up and said, "That's all for today, everyone will disperse first." β
Everyone in the hall had no choice but to clench their fists and lean over and say, "Yes, big dragon head!" β
Our Master Yuan saluted, and was about to go over to greet Li Jie and his wife, when he heard Situ Meitang say, "Second Master Yuan, please stay." β
Unexpectedly, he clenched his fists and asked, "Big dragon head, do you have any advice?" β
Situ Dalongtou smiled and said, "Second Master Yuan, the old man wants to talk to you alone......"
"HgS, mercury sulfide. The Chinese call the compound of sulfur and mercury cinnabar. In addition to this chemical formula, it is also the abbreviation of a huge company, but this is not an English abbreviation, but an abbreviation of the pinyin Hong-Gong-Si.
In fact, this company belongs to the largest gang organization in Chinese history - Hongmen. And its Chinese name is called Cinnabar Company.
Although Hongmen also once called itself Shuntian Hongying Yixing Company, this "company" was actually a form of combination with the nature of a gang in rural Fujian in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. Later, it was brought overseas by overseas Chinese in Fujian and Guangdong provinces.
Since its establishment, Cinnabar Company has been a real enterprise with modern management mode.
If you look at the predecessor of Cinnabar Company, you will find that this company has the same origin as the world-renowned biomedical company "UMBRELLA" Group. That is the "100-year-old mountain" established by Mr. Yuan Yanqian in 1920.
In the beginning, the company only had one product, and that was a health care drug called "fairy water". It is said that Mr. Yuan defeated sepsis by taking the "fairy water" made from the modified recipe of this traditional Chinese medicinal liquor, "Wujiapi", so this medicinal wine became popular throughout the United States in the early twenties.
In 1921, the famous American entrepreneur Louis Baker became the chairman of the company, and under his leadership, Baisuishan became a world-renowned brand, and even knocked China's domestic medicine and liquor industry to a loss.
By the mid-twenties, Mr. Baker was running the Centennial Hill Listing. In the future, Baisuishan will be acquired by the umbrella and become a very simple health care product brand.
During this period, part of the business of Baisui Mountain was spun off, and this part was the cinnabar company.
Mr. Yuan Yanqian has never said that he is a member of the Hongmen Chinese gang, in fact, many well-known Chinese during the late Qing Republic of China were members of Hongmen, and even the Xingzhong Society, the predecessor of the League, was a mountain hall in Hongmen.
Mr. Yuan is not a general member, he was the second sage of the 100-year-old mountain in Jiangsu before he went to the United States to study. After his return in 1922, his father handed over the position of 100-year-old mountain leader to his eldest son.
Since then, he has become a real Hongmen boss.
At that time, in China, this was not an identity that needed to be hidden, even for a scholar and a great writer, Mr. Yuan not only publicly admitted it, but also was very proud of being a 100-year-old mountain leader. Several times in his life, he opened mountain halls in Shanghai, the United States, and Nanyang to recruit disciples.
Because of his high reputation among the Chinese, every time he recruited disciples, it was a local event. By the 40s, there must have been a 100-year-old disciple among the three adult men.
The participants of the Cinnabar Company were not Baisuishan, and more than 30 Tangkou in Hongmen in the United States had shares in it at that time.
In 1925, the year when this company was founded, the "Deng Shaoyun Incident" occurred that had a far-reaching impact on the Chinese community in the United States and all the halls of Hongmen. (Author's note: It did happen in history, and the time changed slightly.) οΌ
Deng Shaoyun is the nephew of the famous admiral Cheng Biguang.
During Cheng Biguang's naval career, in addition to being heroically wounded in the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle, he also once led the "Haiqi Ship" to South America to intervene in the large-scale anti-Chinese incidents in Cuba and Mexico.
At that time, the Cuban president was intimidated by the military might of the Haiqi warship, so he had no choice but to tell Cheng Biguang: "The Cuban military and people will never discriminate against overseas Chinese." βγ The Mexican government also apologized to the Qing government for the anti-Chinese incident and compensated the victims for the loss of life and property. The Manchu government also had a successful gunboat diplomacy.
Therefore, Cheng Biguang's reputation among overseas Chinese is extremely high, but his nephew is a scoundrel. Deng Shaoyun colluded with the officials of the Los Angeles Immigration Bureau, and colluded with the scum in Hongmentang's mouth to extort and extort local overseas Chinese, and his arrogance was extremely arrogant. Unexpectedly, in 1925, he was hacked to death with an axe and his body was violently corpsed in the streets.
The incident implicated almost all of Los Angeles' Hongmen Church. A large-scale "fight" was inevitable, and even American gangsters began to sell weapons to the Chinese.
At this critical moment, Mr. Yuan and Mr. Situ Meitang, another Hongmen tycoon, were so anxious that they resolutely crossed the United States from New York to Los Angeles with only a few escorts, regardless of their personal safety. In order to be in a hurry, Mr. Yuan also rented a plane from General Motors through personal connections.
After they arrived in Los Angeles, they immediately began to contact the local parishioners, and they were moved by their feelings. The bigwigs of various halls were also very moved, and Li Baozhan, chairman of the Gangzhou Club, and others deeply felt that the Chinese in the United States must unite, so they also became their allies. (Author's note: In history, it was this Li Baozhan who called for the convening of a peace meeting to quell the "fighting" in the halls.) οΌ
Thanks to the efforts of these Hongmen bigwigs, various churches in the western United States held a large-scale gathering in Los Angeles, which was known as the "Los Angeles Peace Conference" in history and the "Shangjin Mountain" in Hongmen.
At this conference, Hongmen not only punished Deng Shaoyun's accomplices, expelled them from Hongmen, but also banned several other halls with notorious deeds.
What is even more historic is that a "peace agreement" was passed at the entrance of the Hongmen hall, which stipulated that members of the Hongmen were strictly forbidden to fight each other, and if there was a dispute, it must be referred to this committee for adjudication. Members who do not obey the orders of the committee and the entrance of the hall will be cleared out of the flood gate. Those who commit the most heinous crimes will be punished by everyone in Hongmen. A committee of 25 members and nine standing committee members were also set up (author's note: Hongmen taboos the number seven. οΌγ
They jointly elected Situ Meitang as the chairman of the committee and Yuan Yanqian as the secretary-general. The Commission has also established a task force under the co-leadership of the Commission, which is normally managed by the Secretary-General.
Another achievement of the "Shangjinshan" conference is that all the Hongmen Tangkou in Los Angeles have invested in the cinnabar company.
The Cinnabar Company originally integrated the Hongmen Tangkou in the eastern part of the United States, so that almost all the Hongmen in the United States joined the Cinnabar Company, becoming a veritable "Hongmen Jinshan".
Since then, the Hongmen, an ancient Chinese gang, has begun to transform into a modern enterprise and a modern political party. This should also be the world's first corporatized underworld force. β
