In the evening, the three of them, who had been in London for half a day without success, finally returned to the hotel.

In the end, they decided not to look for it themselves, but to ask the marketing staff and local agents to pay more attention, find the right store as soon as possible and open it as soon as possible, and make money a day late if it opens one day later.

After the three of them returned to the hotel to rest for a while, Xin Xiaoling and Jia Jinghua, who went out to look for a warehouse, also returned to the hotel, seeing the elated appearance of the two of them, Zhang Zhonghua understood that the small warehouse he needed should be available.

"Boss, we found a good warehouse today, although the area is not too big, but it can basically meet the needs of the UK. And the transportation there is also very convenient, relatively close to the city of Cambridge. ”

Xin Xiaoling reported to Zhang Zhonghua about going out with Jia Jinghua to find a warehouse today, they looked at a lot of warehouses, and finally felt that the selected warehouse was better, not too far from the city of London, and the warehouse facilities also met the requirements of CFC.

"Yes, then rent it for temporary use, and wait until the funds are not too tight in the future before buying it."

Zhang Zhonghua said.

The warehouse can be arranged there for the time being, and if it is not enough in the future, it can continue to be purchased nearby, Zhang Zhonghua plans to open nearly 1,000 stores in the UK, and the warehouse area cannot be too small, and sooner or later you need to buy again.

After this warehouse is not enough, decide whether to buy this warehouse and nearby warehouses or find a large warehouse in another place according to the actual situation.

"How are you doing today? How many stores to buy? ”

Xin Xiaoling asked curiously at Zheng Juan.

"We have already won three stores in the city of London, and these three stores can start to be renovated in a few days, and the remaining selected store locations have not found a suitable store, and it will take some time to find a suitable estimate."

Zheng Juan also briefly introduced their situation to Xin Xiaoling and Jia Jinghua.

"It's good to have three stores, and the business in the financial city is relatively hot. However, when our business improves, there will definitely be shops whose business will be affected, and when some stores can't hold on, we can take it. ”

Jia Jinghua said with a smile.

This kind of thing is not uncommon, and the restaurant that was barely in operation was no longer able to operate after there was a more popular restaurant nearby. This kind of thing happened when I was in Toei, and soon after the opening of the CFC, there were stores in the neighborhood that could not continue to operate.

Everyone smiled when they heard this, hoping that CFC would be able to open in London as well as in Dongjin.

Foreigners on Hong Kong Island and Dongying are very fond of CFC restaurants, and there is no possibility of failure after coming to Europe, the question is how successful it is.

He Jiliang walked into Zhang Zhonghua's room and was stunned for a moment when he saw so many people, and then walked directly to Zhang Zhonghua and said to him: "Boss, we have found a lot of rented offices in the Taol Hamletz district, which is not far from the City of London.

There are some office buildings for rent or office for sale, and even some three-storey buildings are for sale, but the transportation is not too convenient. ”

Zhang Zhonghua still knows a lot about being in the Taorhamlaiz district, after all, he has been there before, and the core CBD is proper. Rivaling the traditional London financial centre of the City City, the future of the city is home to three of the UK's tallest buildings, all of which are located near the city of Taorhamletz.

"What's that three-story building like there?"

Zhang Zhonghua asked with great interest.

It was probably in the 80s that the area around the Taurhamletz district was developed, and now if you take a few buildings for other companies to use, you will definitely not lose money, and in the future you can build a building on the basis of a few small buildings and use it directly as a European branch.

"Those small buildings are similar to those newspaper headquarters on Hong Kong Island, covering an area of more than 300 square meters of modern buildings, and a million pounds is not very expensive, and you can really buy a few when you are rich in the future."

He Jiliang said.

Money is now used everywhere, and although the company can take out the 1 million pounds at present, it is completely unnecessary to buy it under the current situation.

"Tomorrow, let's rent a small building as a temporary office space, and it's not suitable for us to stay in the hotel all the time."

Zhang Zhonghua commanded.

Rent a small building first, and now the funds are also relatively tight, and it is not bad for one or two years to be in the tun land over there.

Then everyone exchanged the information they got today, and everyone had a more comprehensive understanding of London.

Shops, warehouses, and office addresses are all done, and everyone is smiling very happily, and the next step is to decorate the stores and recruit some personnel.

After everyone left at night, Zhang Zhonghua began to write about the future plan, it is still very difficult to open up a new market, of course, the main reason is that the capital is relatively difficult, if he has a billion pounds now, he dares to open thousands of stores in the United Kingdom.

The shops and warehouses can be renovated, and the office buildings will be made up of small buildings in the Taurham Ratz district; Kitchen equipment is the easiest, and the UK is very close to Germany and can be reached quickly; It is also more convenient for logistics companies to purchase cars, and it doesn't cost much to buy cheap cars here; The newly purchased freighter is also about to be completed, and the central kitchen on Hong Kong Island can also be produced in advance for the Global Shipping Group to help transport it, and by the way, it can also pull some furniture, materials and so on.

The decoration in the UK is different from that of Hong Kong Island, and the workers have a lot of problems, so they can only work during the day, and they don't work overtime when they are paid. It's easier to recruit waiters and recruit some Chinese girls directly from Chinatown, but the branch still has to recruit some ghost elders.

Looking out the window at the bright Thames River illuminated by the lights on both sides, Zhang Zhonghua also fell into deep thought.

He can only be engaged in the catering industry in the UK at present, and there is no capital for more talents in finance, and the status of the Chinese in Europe is too embarrassing.

Without a certain popularity and high social status, it is really difficult to mix in European and American countries, and no one is there to bird you at all.

After thinking alone for a while, Zhang Zhonghua looked at the time, picked up the phone, and made a cross-phone call.

"Ah Hua, why are you calling so late, it should be late in the UK."

Lou Xiao'e said to Zhang Zhonghua on the other end of the phone that Lou Xiao'e was going to study in the UK, so she naturally knew about the situation in the UK.

"Sister Xiao'e, I've just finished my busy work here, you don't need to bring too many things to the UK, there are more things here than on Hong Kong Island."

"There's not much stuff, what's going on over there in London?"

Lou Xiao'e asked.

"It's good, I bought three stores today, and tomorrow I will set up the warehouse and office location, and things are going well."

"I just went over to see how it went, and I don't live there permanently, so there's no need to buy everything."

Lou Xiao'e said with a smile.

"Okay, just stay safe on the road."

The next day, in the morning, Zhang Zhonghua made a large pot of West Lake beef soup in the kitchen, and after breakfast, Zhang Zhonghua and the others began to turn around Cambridge City.

Cambridge is the capital of Cambridgeshire, England, the seat of Cambridge University, as early as 2,000 years ago, the Romans had set up camp in this place about 90 kilometers from London, garrisoning troops.

Cambridge, which means the bridge of the Sword River, has a Sword River here, which flows northeast in a large arc circle in the city. Many bridges were built over the river, hence the name Cambridge. Cambridge, also known as Cambridge, is a fascinating traditional university city, just like Oxford.

Cambridge, on a par with Oxford, is a world-renowned university, but the atmosphere here is different from Oxford. Oxford is known as "a city within a university", and Cambridge is "a university within a city". Although many of the medieval buildings have been preserved, the exterior of Cambridge as a whole is bright and modern. There are also many theaters, art galleries and other facilities that are not commensurate with the scale of the city, which makes this university town exude a strong literary atmosphere.

The University of Cambridge was founded in 1209 by a group of scholars who fled from Oxford to escape the brawls. For hundreds of years, Cambridge has been known for the quality of its education. It's a place full of talented people and bright stars. Not to mention the long list of natural scientists. Even in the field of social sciences, a group of pillars of talent have been cultivated. The philosopher Bacon, the economist John Maynard Keynes, the historian Trevillian, and the writer Thackeray all went to Cambridge and eventually became champions. Milton, Byron, Tennyson and others of the school are the laurels and pride of the poetry country.

Cambridge's colleges are scattered throughout the city, and there is no complete campus in the usual sense. But it can also be said that the whole city of Cambridge is its campus. Because the city center is almost surrounded by colleges, it seems to have become a living area in Cambridge. Most of the shops on the street are bookstores and stationery stores, selling things applied by students.

"Cambridge is so beautiful, there are Cambridge colleges everywhere."

Zheng Juangan sighed as she looked at the city with a completely different style from Hong Kong Island.

The University of Cambridge is indeed the city of Cambridge, and the city is full of Cambridge colleges and students.

The Sword River meanders and meanders, with willows hanging down on both banks, and many bridges with exquisite designs and beautiful shapes, among which the Math Bridge, the Grey Bridge and the Sigh Bridge are the most famous.

Wandering along the banks of the Sword River, there are many historic century-old schools and classic buildings, tall and exquisite school buildings, solemn churches and red brick houses covered with green vines stand among the green trees and red flowers of the city.

Beside the road, there are rows of green trees and white and purple cherry blossoms. In the sunlight, it looks vibrant.

On the grass in front of the various colleges and residences, purple and pink roses, goose-yellow daffodils, lampposts, and flowerpots hung on the balconies of houses.

Zhang Zhonghua looked at the green of the city that made people linger, and he was also amazed. Green meadows covered almost all the open spaces in the town except the streets.

Tall school buildings, church spires, and a red-brick house covered with vines are in the midst of the greenery. On the edge of the Sword River, the weeping willows are shady, the jungle is green, and the clear water of the Sword River is set off, and the whole Cambridge is like a green ocean, which is verdant and intoxicating.

"The history of Cambridge University for more than 800 years has created countless great people, such as Isaac Newton, Kelvin, Maxwell, Bohr, Born, Dirac, Oppenheimer, Hawking, Darwin, Watson, Crick, Turing, Wiles, and our hot summer Hua Luogeng and other scientific giants.

John Milton, Byron, Tennyson, Bacon, Russell, Wittgenstein and other literary and philosophical masters, as well as Cromwell, Nehru and other political figures. ”

Jia Jinghua was a little excited to introduce the situation of Cambridge to Zhang Zhonghua, he has been to the UK many times, although he has not turned much, but he still knows the main symbols of the UK very well.

"I didn't expect Mr. Hua Luogeng to also graduate from Cambridge University."

Xin Xiaoling couldn't help but admire when she heard this.

There are many great people who have come out of Cambridge, but it is indeed Turing that interests Zhang Zhonghua the most.

Turing God turned out to be a Cambridge graduate, and he thought he was from Oxford University, which is the most outstanding scientist in the history of computers.

"Turing? Who is this Turing? Zheng Juan asked Zhang Zhonghua.

Alan Matheson Turing, a British mathematician and logician, is known as the father of computer science and the father of artificial intelligence. Turing enrolled at the University of Cambridge and went to Princeton University in the United States to pursue a doctorate, and returned to Cambridge after the outbreak of World War II, where he assisted the military in cracking the famous German cipher system, Enigma, and helped the Allies win World War II.

Turing has made many contributions to the development of artificial intelligence, and proposed a test method for determining whether a machine has intelligence, that is, the Turing test, and there is a test competition every year. In addition, the famous Turing machine model proposed by Turing laid the foundation for the way modern computers work logically.

After Turing's death, the Turing Award, a computer award established by the Computer Society of the United States last year, aims to reward individuals who have made significant contributions to the computer industry.

The Turing Award is highly demanding and has a very strict award process, and is generally awarded to only one computer scientist each year. The Turing Award is the highest international award in the field of computing, known as the 'Nobel Prize of the computer industry'. ”

Zhang Zhonghua briefly introduced some basic information about Turing, many people in East Asia have never heard of computers, so it is normal for many people not to understand it.

Later, Zhang Zhonghua and his tour guide led everyone to visit the famous attractions of Cambridge University, King's College, King's College Chapel, Queen's College, Math Bridge, Cambridge University Botanic Gardens, St. Mary's Cathedral and so on.

"Gently I go, just as softly I came; I beckoned softly, and made a cloud of the western sky...... Quietly I went, as quietly I came; I waved my sleeves and didn't take a cloud with me. ”

Zhang Zhonghua couldn't help reciting Xu Zhimo's "Farewell to Kangqiao", Xu Zhimo's character is not very good, but the book he wrote is really good.

"By the way, Jin Yong also graduated from Cambridge University, Turing, you don't know Jin Yong, you always know him, right?"

Zhang Zhonghua said to Zheng Juan and Xin Xiaoling.
