Chapter 10: Homo sapiens
Hong Kong, Victoria Harbour.
Li Qingye in the hotel room did not take it lightly.
After all, it is the information age, and although his face is old and his skin is much darker, the bone contour has not changed much in the identity information he has retained for naturalization in South Africa.
If you appear frequently on the Internet, or even if you take a plane frequently, you may be recognized by people using network technology.
Even with so many deceptive and misleading methods, he still didn't feel at ease.
It's just that now he has no choice, he can only use the identity of Zhang Jack in a short time, but he needs to be as low-key as possible.
An agency service company in Minato-ku.
Before this, many of the businesses he handled were operated by a separate company to avoid too much information being concentrated in the hands of one agency.
"Mr. Zhang, the aquaculture company you asked us to acquire in Luzon has found three suitable targets, and this is the relevant information." Business manager Lin Ji introduced him with a smile.
Li Qingye crossed Erlang's legs, combed his big back, and his rimless glasses, he looked no different from a middle-aged man in his thirties.
In fact, due to the side effects of genetic modification, Li Qingye's body at this time was already very old, and his face did look like a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties.
The personality that dominates the body at this time is the third personality "Guan Zhong", which is derived specifically for running a company and handling business affairs.
He looked through the three documents.
"The second goal is abandoned."
"Kamei Farming Company?" Lin Ji then nodded.
Li Qingye quickly decided on his goal: "The first target is Yada Marine Aquaculture Company, but I need to go to the field for a field visit. ”
"No problem, our company will arrange it as soon as possible."
A week later.
After getting off Manila International Airport, under the leadership of Lin Ji and others, he came to the east coast city of Luzon - Dart Port.
It faces the Pacific Ocean, about 200 kilometers to the east, and is the Luzon Trench.
The owner of Yada is an American man, wearing big colored pants, strange tattoos on his arms, and an old cowboy in his fifties.
"Hello, Paul." Lin Ji hugged the other party, and then exchanged a few words of greeting and introduced the situation of the two parties.
Li Qingye asked about some information.
According to the introduction, the Daya company has five fishing vessels with a total tonnage of about 24,000 tons, and an office building with five floors of about 3,000 square meters in Dart Port.
In addition to this, there is a breeding base on the nearby Caragua Islands, which owns the property rights to an entire island with an area of 17.3 square kilometers.
There are 15 large mariculture farms on it and 82 cage farms on the shallow coast of the island.
As for the rest of the infrastructure on the islands, there are not a few.
Of course, the island's property rights are not permanent, and there are still about 14 years of property rights, and they are limited to aquaculture development.
After listening to Paul's asking price, Li Qingye shook his head: "It's too expensive, those Jiwei shrimp farms and pomfret farms have an annual profit of less than 2 million US dollars, and the fishing boats are even more in a state of semi-loss, just this, it is not worth 30 million US dollars." ”
"No, no, sir, you must know that those five fishing boats are worth 35 million US dollars......
Li Qingye sneered: "Hehe, Paul, are you kidding? $35 million? Is it a brand new price, how many years has it been used, and there is no depreciation? And you don't understand the current situation of distant-water fishing, right? ”
Paul is very thick-skinned: "Those fishing boats are worth at least 20 million. ”
"Hehe, it's worth up to 5 million, of course you can choose to send it to the shipbreaking yard for scrapping."
"Uh......" Paul's face darkened, these ships were sent to the shipbreaking yard to ask for their own suffering, but if they continued, let alone 5 million, 1 million may not be wanted.
After all, this is an old ship, fuel consumption and maintenance is a problem, and now the slump in marine fishing is also a big problem, with the depletion of global marine fishery resources, this medium-sized fishing boat out of the sea, the probability of losing all money is increasing, otherwise he will not find someone to take over.
As for the farm, the profit of the year round is not much, and it can only barely be maintained.
And as he got older, Paul didn't want to continue in Luzon either.
"A fixed price, 12 million US dollars, sign if you agree, and say goodbye if you don't agree." Li Qingye directly opened the card.
Paul frowned, but he knew that the current market, this kind of industry in remote areas was indeed not very valuable, and the price opened by Li Qingye was already the highest among all interested parties.
In the end, Paul, who couldn't stand it, packaged and sold the entire Daya company to Li Qingye at a price of 12 million US dollars.
Li Qingye used several offshore companies to cross-sharehold, and after taking the company, he renamed the company Homo Sapiens.
The three professional managers he recruited in Xiangjiang are responsible for managing the daily affairs of the company, and these three managers are not too good, they can only be regarded as ordinary, and Li Qingye has no choice.
Caragua Islands.
Caragua, the largest island in the archipelago and the only one that can be permanently located, is also the one contracted by Daya.
A small wharf, near which is a breeding base, and a staff dormitory building, which can accommodate about 120 people; There is also a complex building with a staff cafeteria, billiard room, infirmary, and warehouse for daily necessities.
Then there is Paul's cottage before, which is still a set of sea view rooms with a private beach.
Inside the villa with sea view.
Li Qingye summoned three managers, as well as two managers who had stayed in the previous company.
"I just have one request, you only need to carry out my instructions, and you don't have to worry about other things, understand?"
"Boss, Paul hasn't been paid for more than two months...... "Tashi, the head of the breeding base, reminded.
"Reissue it right away." Li Qingye glanced at the other party, and then began to arrange the positions of the five people: "Jinglan, as the general manager, is responsible for the overall operation of the company. ”
Li Jinglan, a thin man with glasses, nodded: "No problem." ”
"Xincheng, you are responsible for financial management."
Fang Xincheng, a middle-aged man who was a little wooden, stood up: "Yes, boss." ”
Li Qingye continued to command: "Jianxiong, you are in charge of security and logistics management. ”
The middle-aged man who looks tall and mighty is Chen Jianxiong, who has been engaged in the business of a security company before: "Thank you for the trust of the boss." ”
"Tashi, you continue to manage the breeding base and cooperate with the general manager's management."
The middle-aged man with some dark skin was Tashi, who was the first to speak just now, and he was a native of Luzon.
Li Qingye looked at the last person, a middle-aged man who was close to fifty years old: "Kangnan, you still manage the fishing boat, but you don't need to go to sea to fish in the near future, transfer the boat to the port near Caragua Island, help transport some things, and then adjust the business." ”
Kang Nan, who is of Chinese descent, did not show anything about the change of boss, and immediately agreed.
After the others left, Li Qingye explained to Chen Jianxiong alone, asking him to recruit a group of security personnel and purchase a batch of firearms as soon as possible.
Guns are not banned in Luzon, but a gun license is required.
In the end, he arranged for Li Jinglan, the general manager, to purchase a batch of scientific research equipment for biological laboratories in the name of the company, and he was ready to set up an aquaculture laboratory on Caragua Island.
