Chapter 159: Pacific Princess
Although the Spring Festival Gathering is organized by the Magic City Business Federation, it is not limited to one city in the Magic City, and people from all walks of life in nearby Suzhou, Hangzhou, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and even the whole country can participate as long as the level is enough. After all, this event is organized to deepen the connection between each other and expand the network, not to enclose the land for self-germination.
But even so, there are only more than 100 people who are qualified to participate in the event, and there are less than 400 people including their relatives and attachés.
Therefore, according to the estimation of the number of people in the past, the ship chartered by the Magic Capital Business Federation is the Pacific Princess cruise ship.
This ship is the smallest in the Princess Cruises series, with a displacement of more than 30,000 tons, a total length of more than 180 meters, and 11 decks, but it adheres to the consistent spirit of Princess Cruises, with exquisite shape and complete equipment.
There are more than 340 cabins, 200 of which have balconies, and can accommodate up to 670 passengers. There are two pools and an area for sunbathing on the deck, and there is also a golf putting course on the top deck. There are several bars and restaurants, a casino, a large chess room, and an Internet center with eight seats.
In order to better entertain the guests, the Magic City Business Federation also specially hired several well-known chefs, a small troupe and several artists to perform a performance of no more than one hour in the evening. It is worth mentioning that the ship's casino will open when the cruise ship arrives on the high seas.
In fact, after learning the news that Si Mingyu would participate, it was finally determined that there were more than 30 people on board, all of whom came from other places to see the youngest rich man.
Since the daughter-in-law was reluctant to come, Si Mingyu only brought the three of Wanzhongshan, after all, it was on the ship, and the safety problem was not big.
At about two o'clock in the afternoon, luxury cars arrived at the pier, which was people from all walks of life who came to participate in the Spring Festival party. The captain led the chief officer and other key crew members to greet the guests at the gangway.
"Mr. Si."
After learning that Si Mingyu boarded the ship, Boss Yu and others specially came to receive him, after all, the net worth of the other party alone was worth one-third of the Demon Capital Business Federation.
"Boss Yu, Mr. Huang, Analyst Yu, Chairman Lai... Si Mingyu greeted them one by one.
Senior Cai went to Singapore, and Mr. Chen was unable to participate in the temporary event, so there were only a few acquaintances in front of him. But that's what comes out on top of the list in the Chamber of Commerce.
After a few words of greeting, everyone went to the tea room together, and it was rare for Si Mingyu to come back, so he always had to talk about the recent news and anecdotes first, and then talk about their respective developments to see if they could find suitable cooperation opportunities.
Many branches of Si Mingyu's three groups operate in dozens of industries on all continents, and many businesses are franchised in many third world countries, and the probability of cooperation is very large.
Besides, he decides the affairs of the three groups in one word, although he will still consult experts and staff on major matters, but at least he will not have endless meetings and quarrels. Again, it is always easier to convince one person than a group of people.
That's why everyone wants to get to know him and work with him.
On the way, I met a few guests who greeted them politely, and then the news of Si Mingyu's boarding of the ship spread.
It must be emphasized here that many wealthy businessmen have a net worth. Either it is a listed company, whose value fluctuates greatly with the price of the stock and cannot be cashed out for a long time. Either a lot of assets are pledged to the bank for loans or have other debts.
And most people don't have much cash in their hands, and the cash of the boss with a net worth of more than one billion may only be tens of millions, which still exists as the company's working capital.
But Si Mingyu is different, his net worth is real, and it is a private enterprise. Although it owes more than 100 billion yuan to the bank, it has no other foreign debts and can be paid off in less than two years. Moreover, chip manufacturing companies gradually increase their profits as the production line runs in, and it doesn't even take that long.
Don't forget that as long as oil and gas fields produce oil, it is a huge income, and the net profit of two or three billion Chinese dollars a year is not a problem.
It takes time for others to cooperate to raise funds, and Si Mingyu took out hundreds of millions of billions of them casually, you must know that his daily income of 300 million yuan is under the premise of deducting all taxes and fees and not affecting the normal operation of the company, and it doesn't matter if you spend it all.
That's why there is a sudden idea to invest 300 million US dollars to make a TV series. This also leads to a lot of his investment or cooperation, as long as he makes money, he doesn't count too much when he earns more or less.
Do you think he's stupid and doesn't make money? This is a small amount of money in exchange for connections in exchange for word of mouth.
The reason why I explained so much was to say that even if the youngest one in the tea room of more than ten people was twice as old as Si Mingyu, he still respected him and sat in the first place.
This is not only a reflection of net worth, but also a reflection of prestige. Because the unified comment in the industry is that as long as you cooperate with Si Mingyu, you will never lose, even if you lose money, you will admit it, because it is normal for business to lose money and make money, and if you don't cheat, you are the best partner.
Boss Yu first found a topic about the electronics industry, and he was very grateful to Si Mingyu.
The domestic electronics industry, especially the magic electronics industry, used to produce different things but are all of the same grade, Boss Yu is regarded as the leader of the magic industry because of the size of the company.
Later, Si Mingyu's chip manufacturing company was put into production, and Boss Yu's position had to be given to the other party. The manufacture of high-end chips is naturally higher than that of manufacturing electrical components, and the level of technology and influence are not the same.
This made Boss Yu very embarrassed, without the status of the boss of the industry, the position of the president of the business federation was also unstable. You must know that Mr. Huang, who is still watching from the sidelines, is not in the position because the rise time is still short and the connections are a little worse.
As a result, Si Mingyu didn't take the position of the boss of the industry seriously at all, and the industry federation joined but did not participate in any conference activities. This approach helped Boss Yu instead, because no one knew whether Si Mingyu would give Boss Yu face if he didn't fight for this position, and whether he wouldn't give this face if he changed others.
In this case, no one will compete for the position of the boss in the industry who can't compete at all, so not only has Boss Yu's position in the industry been stabilized, but even the position of the president of the Business Federation has been stabilized.
Si Mingyu also responded to Boss Yu's overtures, saying that he would let the trading company consider the products of Boss Yu's company. Although the third world countries involved in East Asia Mingyu Group have little demand for Boss Yu's products, after all, this is an act of opening up new markets, and it is a good start.
