Chapter 303: A Different Way to Do Business
The middle-aged white man got out of the car and straightened his clothes before walking to the door of the bar with a cane.
Behind him were four tall white men, apparently his bodyguards.
"I'm the Marquis of Algramont, I'm here to see Mr. Gu!"
"What did he say?" The horse boy at the door turned around and pulled another person over and asked.
Al. Gramont repeated it, and the other boy looked at him a few times, and looked like he was embarrassed to laugh.
Marquis?
It was the first time he had heard someone use this kind of name, but seeing that the clothes on the other party's body were not wrinkled at all, and there were several big men behind him, he was really a marquis.
"Speak, what the hell did he say? Don't you always boast that you speak good English? ”
"He said he was a marquis, and he came to see the boss!"
"Marquis? Let him come with me! The boss told me to wait here, and when someone came, I would bring it over! ”
Gramont followed the horse into the bar, which was empty at this time, with only a few people sitting in one corner.
Gu Sheng was sitting in the booth drinking Coke, and in the card bag next to him, Tian Yangsheng was reading Fengyue Magazine, and Ah Wu was reading comics.
Silly Fu was playing with two dumbbells not far away.
Tian Yangyi and the others stood next to the card pack, looking at Gramont expressionlessly.
"Let him come!" Gu Sheng's voice came from the card bag.
Gramont walked up to Gu Sheng, pressed his right hand on his chest, and bowed slightly.
"Mr. Gu!"
Gu Sheng looked at the other party, and leaned back lazily.
"Sit down."
This person is the French marquis who has just taken office, and a marquis has become the head of the council, which still makes Gu Sheng feel a little strange.
But on second thought, there are many such titles in Europe, but whether there is money or not is another matter.
After all, the title can't be eaten as a meal, and it's not incomprehensible to do things for the high table.
"Tell me, what's the matter with me?" Gu Sheng spoke directly.
Gramont glanced at the side first, and seeing that Gu Sheng didn't react, he said directly: "It's mainly about expansion in the East, we need a new continental hotel to organize the business in the East." ”
"This is Mr. Gu's territory, and we need Mr. Gu's help, so I came to meet Mr. Gu."
"No problem! The High Table is my business! Gu Sheng said with a smile.
"I think there is a good hotel, right in the downtown area, very suitable as a continental hotel. In this case, I will ask the other party about their intentions first, and then I will inform you. Gu Sheng said directly.
He does know that there is a good hotel and is likely to get his hands on it.
Cointreau Hotel.
The one that was blown up as soon as it opened.
Although it has been renovated now, the previous events have had a great impact on the Cointreau Hotel, and the most important thing is that many people have died.
It is expected that it will not be able to turn a profit anytime soon.
Gu Sheng is going to buy the Cointreau Hotel, and then sell it to the high table at a higher price, after all, the wool of the organization is not white.
Changing hands at least hundreds of millions of profits.
If the price of the Cointreau Hotel can be negotiated, it will be a profit of hundreds of millions.
Gramont's heart moved slightly, and he could probably guess Gu Sheng's thoughts, and nodded: "I have no opinion, then there is Mr. Lao Gu." ”
"Come on, the guests have been sitting for so long that they don't know how to get some drinks? All of them are pig brains? Gu Sheng immediately shouted to the side, turned his head and asked Gramont again:
"What do you drink? Wine or whiskey? ”
"Whiskey on the rocks."
"Did you hear that?" After Gu Sheng finished speaking, he raised his hand and threw a cigarette to Gramont, and took one in his own mouth.
"The problem of the hotel has been solved, but I still have one request, I will name someone to be the person in charge of the hotel." Gu Sheng said again.
"That's fine." Gramont smiled.
Gu Sheng applauded lightly, pointed at Gramont and smiled: "I'm starting to like you, and I'm very happy to talk to you about things." Say, what else is there besides a hotel? ”
"There are also some service agencies."
"I'll take care of that!" Gu Sheng said directly.
These businesses are profitable, and they earn the gold of the high table.
Although the gold coins of the high table are only used internally and are not exchanged, there will be a market if there is demand, and Gu Sheng estimates that there will definitely be a black market.
So it's a hard currency, not only can it be traded within the organization, but it can also be exchanged for money at any time.
"Then there's one more thing, about the second-class seats here, which our council will deal with. However, no matter where you are, there will always be some people who are out of place and need Mr. Gu's support at that time. Gramont continued.
That's the most important thing.
The High Table will shelter those second-class seats, but the significance of the second-class seats to the High Table is not only to hand over a large amount of money every year, but also to expand the trading channels of the High Table.
"I have some thoughts on the second class. On the Bay Island side, I'll talk to them then. For the rest, you are responsible for the rest. As for support...... It depends on how much support is needed! ”
Gu Sheng said noncommittally.
Of course, verbal support is fine, but sending someone to support it is another matter.
There is no benefit in front of him, fighting for life and death for the high table, when he is a fool?
As for the annual dividends, that is what he should take, and he takes it with a clear conscience.
When you come out to do business, you have to return one yard to one yard.
Dividends are two different things from sending people to do things.
Gramont's face did not move at all, and he said in a flat tone: "Mr. Gu, I will discuss with you again then!" ”
"Then we'll talk about it then." Gu Sheng waved his hand.
For Gramont, the most important thing today is to know Gu Sheng's attitude, and that in most cases Gu Sheng will not cause him any trouble, and that is enough.
After sitting for a while and inquiring about the situation on Hong Kong Island, Gramont got up and said goodbye: "Mr. Gu, then I will leave first." ”
"Wait a minute." Gu Sheng stretched out his finger and pointed to the cup on the table: "Finish drinking and then leave." You don't drink it when you pour it for you, and you look down on me? ”
Gramont smiled, "It was my negligence, the faux pas." ”
picked up the wine glass and drank it all, then bowed slightly at Gu Sheng, picked up the cane and walked out.
"This guy really looks like a nobleman, so personable?" Liang Xiaotang said after watching Gramont lead people out of the bar.
"Grace can be eaten as a meal? So personable, and gangsters? Gu Sheng sneered.
"You ask the owner of the Cointreau to be there, and I'm going to make a deal with them." Gu Sheng commanded.
The news came back quickly, and within an hour, the news of the Cointreau Hotel came back.
"Boss, behind the Cointreau Hotel is Hong Kong Island Development Co., Ltd."
"Island Development Company Limited? So bite? Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows, and when he heard the name of this company, he knew that the boss behind it was not simple.
"The boss is He Zhang."
"Oh? Such a coincidence? Damn, acquaintance! ”
Gu Sheng patted his thigh and said.
He hadn't seen He Zhang, but he knew who He Zhang was.
He is the cousin of the letter.
Although he is the cousin of the congratulatory letter, he is not like the third room of the congratulatory letter, and he is so disgraced that he ran to Ao Island to make a living.
Although the He family is not well-known on Hong Kong Island now, its background is much deeper than that of the richest man Li.
And he found an interesting thing, these big families are very fond of real estate business, and almost all of them have real estate companies under their names.
Gu Sheng pondered whether to negotiate a business with the other party through a congratulatory letter, but after thinking about it, it was difficult to bargain so actively to come to the door to negotiate business!
You must know that there are more of these people than one heart.
It's not good to always use violent means to talk about business, just like He Qing said, he has reached this point, and the previous methods are no longer useful.
I have to change the way I do business.
Gu Sheng thought about it and asked, "Is this Hong Kong Island Development Co., Ltd. listed?" ”
"I'll ask."
"If they go public, check how many shares they have outstanding in the stock market." Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows, and after giving the order, he went out to find Qiu Di.
The guy looked for him twice, and he didn't rush to go when he came back.
When he arrived at the café, Qiu Di put the Coke bottle on his table with a straight face, and went back to settle the score.
"Damn, you have a face every day!" Gu Sheng scolded, but he didn't take it to heart.
After all, Autumn Causeway has always been like this.
What's more...... She's crazy enough in bed!
Gu Sheng likes it quite much.
At around seven o'clock in the evening, when the cafes were about to close, the news came back.
Hong Kong Island Development Co., Ltd. is indeed listed, and the outstanding shares account for 70% of the total shares, about 2 billion shares, about two dollars per share.
When Gu Sheng heard the news, he thought about it in his heart.
Tomorrow will make people get ready to keep an eye on the shares of Island Development Company Limited.
Then they blew up their construction site first, and then tied up their person in charge, and let the newspapers hype it themselves, and their stock will definitely fall sharply.
When the time comes, just copy their stocks and exchange them for ......
Gu Sheng just thought about copying their shares first and then exchanging them for Cointreau Hotel, but after thinking about it, he changed it for a fart!
I made a lot of money by buying the bottom stocks, and then I talked to them about the Cointreau Hotel in another way.
As for buying their hotel at the original price after making a lot of money in the stock market...... This thought never appeared in Gu Sheng's mind.
Buying something at the original price is not Kaizi?
After thinking about it for a while, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that this plan was good.
I was in a good mood all of a sudden.
I'm getting better at business now.
Get up and walk over to Choi Causeway, who is cleaning up, and slap her in the ass. "What else to pack? Do you pay them wages and benefits? Hurry up and eat, I'm starving! ”
When he got up the next morning, Gu Sheng lay in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and watched the sea for a long time, and then started talking on the phone.
"Xiaotang, you asked people to check what construction sites Hong Kong Island Development Co., Ltd. has now."
"Ah Wen, you check the person in charge of the Hong Kong Island Development Co., Ltd., and send me the detailed information."
"Boss Zhou, I remember you playing stocks, right? Do you know a trader? Find me a few. ”
"Mr. Gu, do you want to play stocks?"
"Just have fun, make a little fuss, I mainly want to study how this thing should be played."
"Mr. Gu's petty fight, if you put it to others, it's a big deal, the pattern is different!" Boss Zhou's voice came from the other side of the phone.
How can a small fight be specifically looking for a trader?
"Boss Zhou, you are so good at talking! Hahahaha, the next time we play golf together, I haven't played for a while, and I don't know if my skills have regressed! Gu Sheng said with a grin.
After a while, Gu Sheng hung up the phone, and Qiu Di came out of the shower, lying behind him, hugging his neck and not speaking.
"Are you trying to strangle me?" Gu Sheng didn't have a good airway.
"Yes, Mr. Gu was strangled to death by his mistress, maybe someone will set up a card for me!" Qiu Tsutsumi rolled his eyes.
In the morning, things were arranged, and in the afternoon, Gu Sheng took people to Kowloon, where Gu Sheng was in the office building.
Now the office is finally installed.
As soon as the elevator was about to close, Gu Sheng saw a short-haired woman running over with a stack of documents, shouting "Wait a minute!" ”
As a result, he ran to the elevator, and after meeting the eyes of Gu Sheng, Tian Yangsheng, Tian Yangyi, Ah Wu, Silly Fu and others, he immediately squeezed out a smile in embarrassment: "You first, I'll wait for the next trip!" ”
Gu Sheng pressed the elevator switch and raised his eyebrows: "You said let me wait, you said let me go?" Such a big face? ”
"I'm not in a hurry......," the short-haired woman's face looked even more embarrassed.
"Do you want me to invite you?" Gu Sheng looked at her playfully.
The woman's appearance reminded him of a person, but it was different from the one he remembered, and he was not sure.
"No need to ......" The woman cautiously walked into the elevator and shrank straight into the corner.
"What's your name?"
"Yue Qiqi ......"
Gu Sheng picked up a document she was holding and glanced at it. "Lawyer?"
"yes!"
Yue Qiqi now thinks why this elevator is so slow.
It stands to reason that she is a lawyer and has seen a lot of people, but being stared at by these people, somehow she has a creepy feeling.
"I have a lot of lawsuits, I'll look for you next time!" Gu Sheng said casually, recalling in his heart, is it most likely the female lawyer in "The King of Killers"?
However, the headlights are too small......
Gu Sheng didn't have much interest in her, but was just a little interested in which movie she was involved in.
As Gu Sheng looked away, Tian Yangsheng and Ah Wu also looked away, and Yue Qiqi felt that the cold gaze on her back disappeared.
When I arrived at the office, I pushed the door into the front desk, and two people could sit in the back, and after the door was pushed open, there was a rectangular indoor court covering an area of more than 600 square meters, which occupied half of this floor.
The course is 50 meters long and 12 meters wide, with a green carpet. There is also a row of cues against the wall.
Gu Sheng picked up the club and waved it twice, and then asked people to put a ball on it.
Clang!
With a crisp sound, the ball disappeared and then bounced a few times on the roof and the opposite wall before landing in the middle of the field.
"Not bad!" Gu Sheng casually put the club aside, and then pushed the door along the wall to enter, it was an office, with an area of about 100 square meters, with a wide desk and boss chair against the window, and a row of sofas opposite the desk.
The whole room is decorated with wood and leather, which looks luxurious.
On the other side of the office, there is a lounge with a three-meter-wide bed.
Gu Sheng turned around and felt good.
In the future, I don't have to be at the bar every time.
This office occupies an entire floor, and in addition to the court, offices and lounge, there is a meeting room and other rooms for the secretary and the horseman.
Gu Sheng beckoned to Liang Xiaotang:
"Go and hire two front desks, five secretaries! Other business abilities are passable, but the temperament must be good, the bed must be SAO, and the lamp must be big! In addition, keep your mouth tight. ”
While he was talking, Ding Yao's people called.
They came to Hong Kong Island with a contract.
Gu Sheng's office was used immediately, and he could sign a big contract just after the renovation was completed!
