In 78 years, the Zhou Group acquired Hutchison Whampoa Company and Wharf Group, but instead of becoming a quick-acting relief pill for the Chinese-funded companies, they relented one by one for fear of provoking the retaliation of the British-funded foreign companies.

Zhou Ming didn't have much emotion about these Chinese-funded enterprises who were content with the status quo, but ran his business step by step, and in the end, he didn't let the people hiding in the dark see the jokes.

Hutchison Whampoa Company and Wharf Group were a life-saving charm in the hands of British-funded foreign companies, but in the hands of the Zhou Group, they were transformed into high-quality gold mines that made daily gold profits, which made Hong Kong's business tycoons jealous all the time.

"Boss, Cestbon Group has submitted an invitation to meet with our Zhou family?" Huo Jianning came directly to the chairman's office on the top floor, looked at Zhou Ming and explained.

"Oh? Who are the people coming? At this time, Zhou Ming couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

"The first and second leaders of the Cestbon Group will come, Director Qi of Huaxin Agency, and the person in charge of Shekou Industrial Park."

"Oh? Such a big battle? ”

"Boss, it seems that the mainland market is still quite sincere, should we officially start contact and negotiate with them?"

"Mr. Huo, you are now the head of the Zhou Group, what do you think of yourself?"

"Boss, in my opinion, the mainland market is the future of our Zhou Group, according to our group's strategic analysis over the years, the manufacturing mainland market can remain open, and it will definitely become the next world factory."

"Well, see you then! In addition, we called several major shareholders and directors of our Zhou Group, and we tried to finalize the matter at one time. ”

"Huh? Boss, wouldn't it be too big to play like this? ”

"It's okay! Although Huo Lao and the charter boat king together only have 11% of Zhou's shares, they also tend to invest in the mainland market, and they will be less vigilant when they are in the Cestbon delegation. ”

"Yes! Boss. ”

The people sent by Cestbon Group did not expect that Zhou's Group would receive them with such a high standard, and they immediately couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised, which shows that Zhou's Group is also interested in investing in the mainland market.

Huo Jianning first took the guests to the home appliance manufacturing plant and electronics factory under the Zhou Group for inspection, and then came to the headquarters building of the Zhou Group.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou! Nice to see you. The leader of Cestbon Group excitedly shook Zhou Ming's hand and said.

"Mr. Lin, Mr. Huo and Mr. Bao are both major shareholders of our Zhou family, so I guess I don't need to introduce them to you, right?"

"Huo Lao, hello!" "Hello, Mr. Bao!"

"Mr. Lin, welcome." Huo Lao and the charter boat king also looked at Mr. Lin with a smile on their faces.

"Mr. Lin, this is my lover Tan Jing, who is now a director of the board of directors of Zhou's Group and the general manager of a securities company."

"Female stock god, fortunately!"

"Mr. Lin, welcome to our Zhou family."

"Mr. Lin, this is Qiu Xia, the general manager of our Zhou's Group Zhouji Catering Culture Group, and also a director of the board of directors of our Zhou's Group."

"Mr. Qiu, hello!"

"Welcome! Welcome. ”

Then the guests were taken to the large conference room, and everyone was in front of a few bottles of Zhouji purified water and drinks, and at this time, the Cestbon Group naturally had not yet begun to engage in the beverage industry.

"Mr. Lin, this is the mineral water and beverages produced by the beverage factory built by our Chow Group in Malaysia, you can try it first and give some advice." Zhou Ming suddenly looked at the guest in front of him mischievously and persuaded him.

"Okay." Since Zhou Ming, as the host, has already said this, the guests naturally opened their drinks or drank mineral water one after another, "Well, it tastes really good!" ”

"Hehe, everyone can like it."

"Mr. Zhou, I don't understand a little, why doesn't your Zhou Group build a beverage factory in Hong Kong anymore?" Then Director Qi of Huaxin News Agency held half a bottle of Zhou Ji black tea in his hand, and then looked at Zhou Ming with some confusion and asked.

"Director Qi, Hong Kong is too small, and Hong Kong's water resources need to be supplied through the mainland, so it doesn't have the ability to build a beverage factory."

"Haha, Mr. Zhou, then you can go to our mainland to build a beverage factory!" Immediately afterwards, Director Qi followed Zhou Ming's words and invited.

"That's right! Today, all the staff of Zhou's Group are out to discuss with you, and we also want to invest in the mainland market as soon as possible. ”

"Mr. Zhou, you must have heard that the mainland market is about to decide to set Shenzhen as a special economic zone, which can fully meet your company's investment intentions."

"Mr. Lin, Director Qi, our Zhou's Group intends to transform the manufacturing industry next, and the costs in Western countries are too high, and we also intend to move Zhou's Group's manufacturing enterprises in Western countries to the mainland, so a Shenzhen may not be able to meet our needs."

"Oh? Mr. Zhou, where else do you want to go to Zhou's Group? At this time, the guests looked at each other in surprise, and then looked at Zhou Ming in front of them and asked.

"Shanghai."

"Huh? Shanghai? ”

"Yes! According to the plan formulated by our group, we will build a home appliance production base in Shenzhen and Shanghai, and we will also put high-tech industries in Shanghai. ”

“……”

Although the sincerity of the Zhou Group this time is very sufficient, some things cannot be solved with sincerity alone, and the things involved are still very complicated.

So this negotiation did not come to a conclusion, and after sending off the guests, Huo Jianning looked at Zhou Ming suspiciously and asked, "Boss, it seems that it is very difficult to let the mainland open Shanghai." ”

"Yes! I had expected it for a long time. ”

"Boss, what are we going to do next?"

"First of all, according to the plan made at the beginning, we will go to Shenzhen to invest in the construction of our factory, after all, our Zhou Group needs to expand its production capacity and scale as soon as possible."

"Yes! Boss. ”

"Well, Mr. Huo, you are a financial wizard, and in the future, you will also focus on the Hong Kong and international markets, and lead the overall situation of our Zhou Group, as for the real industry in the mainland, it will be handed over to others to take over."

"Yes! Boss, I resolutely obey the group's arrangement. ”

So then Zhou's Group officially went to Shenzhen to invest, and soon Zhou's storage of production lines and equipment came in handy, and later Zhou's Group's factories have spread throughout Shenzhen, and sometimes Shenzhen will be nicknamed "Zhouzhen" by everyone.
