Chapter 5 Angel Investment
"Hey, poor ghost, this is not the place for you to come, get out of here!"
A curry-flavored Indian Ah San rushed over waving a rubber short stick, he has seen too many such poor people, although Queen's Road is a 'noble area' and a gathering place for the upper class, there are always some poor ghosts who don't open their eyes to Hang Seng Bank to open their eyes, which makes him annoyed.
From the first sight of Zhou Wenqiang and Lei Luo, Ah San decided to drive the two away like flies.
"Ah Qiang, be careful!"
Lei Luo flashed in front of Zhou Wenqiang, he was two years stronger than Zhou Wenqiang, and when he was the eldest brother, he naturally had to cover the 'little brother'.
"Arlo, don't be so nervous."
Zhou Wenqiang patted him on the shoulder with one hand, and stretched out one hand in front of Indian Ah San.
"Passbook?"
India's rubber stick immediately stopped in the air.
The welcome lady standing behind him reacted very quickly, and she had already stepped on high heels and ran over, seeing the blue passbook that marked the identity of the VIP customer, her voice was suddenly as sweet as if it was mixed with honey: "The two gentlemen have worked hard, please go to the rest area for a cup of coffee......"
Half an hour later, Lei Luo, who walked out of Hang Seng Bank, felt that his head was still dizzy.
He actually drank a cup of 'coffee' at Hang Seng Bank, and although he almost didn't vomit it on the spot, he knew that it was something that only wealthy people on Hong Kong Island could enjoy.
Then I saw a person claiming to be the manager running over and patting Cuong's ass, not only personally helping Cuong get the banknotes, but also giving him a checkbook.
This thing is even more amazing, according to this manager, in the future, as long as Ah Keong writes the amount of money on the check, anyone can use this check to withdraw money from Hang Seng Bank!
"Cuong, if you write me a check, can I take it to Hang Seng Bank for free coffee?"
Lei Luo doesn't like the taste of coffee very much, but he likes the dessert with coffee.
The kind of food that Arlo called 'small cakes' was much better than white sugar cakes, and he guessed that there must be a precious ingredient such as eggs in it.
Ah Xia will definitely like it very much.
"Arlo, I really want to praise you for being sharp and brainy.
I can actually think of this way of eating and drinking, I'm not as good as you anyway. ”
Zhou Wenqiang said with a smile: "But this kind of thing is still thought about, you are Lei Luo, and you are a person who wants to do great things in the future, how can you always think about eating and drinking?"
Okay, okay, stop talking nonsense, I'll take you to buy clothes first.
Nowadays, there are not many people on Hong Kong Island who can see people, and they are very strong in 'knowing people with clothes'. ”
"Ah Qiang, you say so good, Chang Ji is this kind of person!
He always said that I was poor and didn't let Ah Xia be my girlfriend. ”
Now Lei Luo thinks about how to turn Ah Xia into his wife every day, which is his biggest goal in life at present.
Now the upper class society on Hong Kong Island naturally has to wear suits, and they must be formal clothes, but it is too eye-catching to wear a formal suit when applying for a poor school, and maybe it will be arrested as a neurotic, Zhou Wenqiang didn't want to take risks, and finally considered casual style.
Each person has a cotton white shirt, bib pants, a short windbreaker outside, and then a pair of big scalp shoes, which are fashionable and not as eye-catching as formal wear.
The examiner can't even take a second look!
"Ah Luo, I spent a lot of money on you, even if I borrowed you, I must pay it back in the future."
"Okay, whatever you want."
"You said that when Ah Xia saw my new clothes, would she immediately throw herself into my arms?"
"Arlo, your pattern is too small, why didn't you pounce on your bed?"
"No, Chang Ji wants a lot of dowry."
"Why don't I lend you some money as a bride price?"
"No, I'll try to save my own money in the future......"
Lei Luo seemed to be very excited today, chatting a lot with Zhou Wenqiang along the way, and full of longing for the future.
***
"Cuong, your appearance today is so different from yesterday......"
It has been more than half an hour since he sat in the teahouse, Li Jiacheng has been staring at Zhou Wenqiang, he is naturally polite to people, and it is unprecedented to stare at people impolitely like this.
It's not that Lao Li doesn't understand, it's that the world is changing fast.
When I met Zhou Wenqiang yesterday, Zhou Wenqiang was still a tattered fish ball boy, although he spoke well, he was a real bottom class.
But today is completely different, the short cloth shirt suddenly turned into a white shirt and suspender pants, revealing a faint British style from the inside out, which made Li Jiacheng unable not to be surprised.
And whether it is ordering tea or calling all kinds of refreshments, he is a veteran in the old hands, and Li Jiacheng should admit that he is inferior.
Although this teahouse is located on Boundary Street, it is not a wealthy area on Hong Kong Island, but it is also a time-honored teahouse, and the consumption level is higher than that of the surrounding area, but Zhou Wenqiang seems to be a regular customer here.
This made Li Jiacheng a little surprised, and even forgot to be polite.
"Ah, I'm sorry, Cuong, I was rude.
I guess you're just selling fish balls as a hobby, right? ”
Although Li Jiacheng is only a sales manager now, his uncle Zhuang An is a Chaozhou giant businessman, he is familiar with his uncle, and his eyesight is naturally not bad.
However, he just asked casually, not really asking Zhou Wenqiang to answer, but in his heart, he regarded Zhou Wenqiang as a friend who could really be on an equal footing with him.
"Hehe, my matter is a long story, so I won't talk about it, drink tea, ......"
Li Jiacheng nodded, smart didn't ask, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and suddenly said: "Ah Qiang, you were right yesterday, I went back and thought about it all day, and decided to invest in a plastic factory as soon as possible and start producing plastic flowers!" ”
"You've decided?"
Zhou Wenqiang was stunned.
Superman is Superman, and he's really decisive.
I casually mentioned it yesterday, and I didn't expect that Li Jiacheng would invest in a plastic factory half a year in advance.
However, this is an opportunity.
If his memory is correct, Li Jiacheng should be very short of funds by now.
"Well, I am going to build a factory in Shau Kei Wan, and now the Hong Kong Island government is vigorously developing Shau Kei Wan, and it is very convenient to build a factory here, and the labor is also very cheap."
Zhou Wenqiang smiled: "Make a decision so quickly, it seems that you have already planned to become a family?"
If I'm not mistaken, there should have been a gap in funding before, so you haven't made up your mind for a long time. What, now the funding problem is solved? ”
"There is a big funding gap......
Li Jiacheng shook his head and said: "I have estimated that even if I lease two or three factories, hire two or three workers, and buy a few old-fashioned presses, it will require an investment of about 50,000 Hong Kong dollars, and I only have 22,000 Hong Kong dollars in my own hands, which is far from enough."
I really can't do it, so I can only be cheeky and go to my uncle.
Hey, I didn't want to...... My family came from the mainland to join my uncle, and it was already very troublesome for him to be an old man, so how could I go to him again to invest. ”
"Yes, I was originally sent under the fence, and now I have to ask for someone, and I will feel embarrassed if I change it."
Zhou Wenqiang smiled: "If you want me to beg your uncle, it is better to ask a friend for help."
Do you think this will work?
I will give the remaining 28,000 Hong Kong dollars, but it is not your borrowed money, it is my investment.
I don't care about the usual production and operation, I only need shares, and I will earn dividends in the future, and I only need 49% of the shares. ”
Hearing that Zhou Wenqiang wanted to invest in shares, the Li family was very hesitant, but when they heard the last sentence, they suddenly showed a slight joy, but after thinking about it, they still waved their hands again and again: "How can this work?"
Ah Qiang, you have more money than me, but you have less shares than me, this is not fair! ”
Li Jiacheng was dizzy in the later period, and did some wrong things, but people always have two sides, he once had a motto, which probably means that if you can extract fifty percent of the profits from cooperation, I would rather only forty percent, or even thirty percent.
Giving way to cooperative opponents and enabling everyone to make money is the fundamental reason why this 'superman' has been able to stand in the business world for most of his life.
"Jiacheng, you listen to me.
In fact, this is very fair, although I have invested more money than you, but you have studied the market for plastic flowers for many years, and you also have experience in production and sales, which is originally a 'technology investment' and should get a part of the shares.
Moreover, my investment is not a general type of investment, but an 'angel investment'. ”
"Angel investment?"
Li Jiacheng was stunned for a moment, although he was born in a merchant family, it was the first time he had heard such a statement.
