Chapter 410, Shen Baoxin's doubts

A new day is coming, and for many years, I have led the little children to fight in the yard against the rising sun.

Compared to when I was in the capital, I could only practice in the basement.

On the Hong Kong Island side, it's not too cool to somersault directly in the yard.

The greenery on Hong Kong Island is very good, and the air is exceptionally fresh.

I don't know if it's because of yesterday's incident, but when I practiced boxing early this morning, the little kids were very serious one by one.

If the song "Men Be Self-Improvement" is played next to it, I'm afraid that the little ones will be more serious and hardworking, right?

"It's time for breakfast!"

At the door, Qin Huairu shouted, but the little ones were indifferent and continued to practice boxing.

Then he shouted a few more words, but there was still no answer, and Qin Huairu suddenly became angry.

Many years stopped and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Your mother is here!" ”

Bai Tofu glanced back, and sure enough, their mother came over with a bamboo stick in a huff.

"Didn't you hear you eating? Is it deaf? How many times do you want me to shout? ”

Mom was angry, and the little kids hurriedly slipped away.

When they ran back to the dinner table, they tried to settle breakfast quickly, but their mother stopped them.

"Eat slowly, who made you eat so fast?"

"Mom, we still have to take a shower, it's almost late"

It's Monday, they need to go to school, and they can't be late.

"Then don't be in a hurry, wait for your dad to send you over, slow down"

Despite this, the speed at which they eat is not much slower.

After packing up, they urged their father to hurry up and go.

At the entrance of St. Paul's Elementary School, the kids got out of the car quickly, then said goodbye to their dad and ran into the school without looking back.

Unlike the primary schools in Beijing, the primary schools on Hong Kong Island do not have a flag-raising ceremony.

Therefore, there is no jumping exercise or anything like that, so that the two leaders of Xiaodoubao and Xiaotuanzi are not used to it.

After driving to the Peninsula Hotel for many years, David Ferdinand, general manager of the Daily Express Post, Benedict, general manager of G Investments, and Gascoigne, general manager of C Investments, have arrived.

On the seventh floor of the Peninsula Hotel, in the conference room of the executive suite, David and a dozen of them were seen for many years.

“BOSS!”

Everyone stood up to greet and greet many years, looking very enthusiastic and excited, and a little confused.

After all, what are they doing for many years to call them from the financial center of London to the Commonwealth city of Hong Kong Island?

To be precise, today's Hong Kong Island is actually a colonial city of Great Britain.

However, Hong Kong Island is very important, and its economic status is now much higher than it was more than a decade ago.

Despite this, there is no comparison between Hong Kong Island and London.

Therefore, David Ferdinand and others can't quite understand what they can do when they are called to Hong Kong Island for many years?

Could it be that Hong Kong Island can make a lot of money?

After the greetings, many years waved and let them sit down.

"David, let's start with you, and briefly talk about the recent situation in the Daily Express Mail"

"Okay, boss, here's it."

David Ferdinand immediately straightened his posture and began to report to work.

The Daily Express Mail was the first company to be founded in London many years ago.

Although it was borrowed from Peter's vest, it was later transferred to Michael's vest.

But for many years, it didn't really make much difference.

The last time he went to London many years ago and killed the original traitor Chris, now the head of the Daily Express Mail has become David Ferdinand.

Not to mention, David's business ability is still very good.

It is estimated that Chris's predecessor has set up a good negative teaching material, so David is very loyal to his duties and has no dissent.

Since the beginning of last year, the Daily Express and Mail have completely established themselves as the top seller in London's newspaper industry.

And I've never been blown up by someone, I have to say, whether it's Chris or David, they are all good at running a newspaper.

Of course, the revenue seems to be strong, but in fact, the profit is not very optimistic.

It can only be said that if you want to make a little money, if you want to make a lot of money, it is unrealistic to rely on the newspaper alone.

"Okay, well done, at the end of this year, you are expected to get the C bonus."

When David's report was over, many years smiled and praised.

After David took over the Daily Express Mail, he set up three levels of ABCD rewards and incentives for the other party for many years.

A is the highest grade, and D is the lowest grade.

Now it seems that it is possible for David's level to get the C grade.

As for the two grades of AB rewards, it is difficult to say whether David can get them.

It can only be said that according to the current revenue and profitability, David is currently not up to the B grade.

Even, if the other party is not enterprising, the reward of the D grade may be lost.

"Thank you BOSS, I will continue to work hard."

David Ferdinand modestly said that he was not complacent.

Because he simply does not have such capital.

What's more, he has only been in charge of the Daily Express Post for less than three months, so it's still early.

"Benedict, tell me about Rolls-Royce's current situation"

Benedict, who had been named for many years, smiled and nodded, and then began to report to work.

He needs to keep an eye on Rolls-Royce, while also reaching out to other aerospace manufacturing companies.

Once you have a suitable target, just go straight to it.

After all, once the successful acquisition of Rolls-Royce has been successful for many years, it will also embark on the road of acquisition.

Otherwise, Rolls-Royce would be very difficult to reach the original height of the original time and space on its own.

Aero engine technology, but the jewel in the crown of industry, how can it be so easy?

It involves the upstream and downstream industrial chain of the entire manufacturing industry, not to mention, just the three-rotor technology RB211 engine project that Rolls-Royce is researching, the new materials in it, are enough to defeat Rolls-Royce.

The research and development of new materials is only possible with the help of genius scientists.

Otherwise, if you want to improve, the difficulty coefficient is many times more difficult than the eighteenth layer of hell.

Innovation is not just talking.

In the original time and space, the reason why Rolls-Royce killed himself was that he burned money too hard.

"Okay, you keep an eye on Rolls-Royce, and the two companies you just mentioned, and give me a detailed report later."

"Okay boss, I got it."

In the following years, many years later, I listened to the work reports of Gascoigne and others.

The revenue of several investment companies is very average, and in just two months or so, they have earned a total of more than 1.3 million pounds.

How can I say it, it's decent!

After chatting about these jobs, David called for many years to inform the hotel to get some food and drink, and he will work here today.

Before he came, he had already told Qin Huairu and the others that he would not go home for dinner at noon today.

The small bean bun was naturally picked up by Qin Huairu or Xiaomei.

After eating and drinking, the work continues.

Several companies need to set up branches on Hong Kong Island, and the office buildings are concentrated in one building.

"In the next few years, the economy of Hong Kong Island will usher in a take-off, whether it is stock market investment or industrial investment, you can make a lot of money here."

Before 1972, the Hong Kong dollar was pegged to the British pound, so the exchange rate was almost fixed.

However, after the Second World War, especially in recent years, the British economy has fallen, which has led to a serious depreciation of the pound.

On the contrary, Hong Kong Island's economy has been in a state of strong growth.

Such an exchange rate will definitely affect the economy of Hong Kong Island, so after 72 years, the Hong Kong dollar became pegged to the US dollar.

The general background is like this, and I want to join in for many years, stand on the tuyere, and carve up the economic dividends of Hong Kong Island.

David, Gascoigne, Benedict, these people have no doubts.

Anyway, whatever the boss says, that's what it is.

It's just that the business in London can't be completely abandoned, so the two sides also need to be synchronized.

In addition, the center of gravity will definitely slowly shift to the Hong Kong Island.

This has not been directly mentioned for many years.

After all, in the next few years, these will be confirmed one by one, and when the time comes, even if they don't talk about it for many years, David and the others will definitely take the initiative to transfer to Hong Kong Island.

After determining the general direction of investment, I was relieved for many years.

The next time is to rent an office, then recruit troops, and throw a lot of money around.

Before leaving, many years ago, I suddenly remembered that the price of the current Hong Kong Island Industrial Building had plummeted.

Therefore, it is a serious thing to seize the time to buy the bottom.

"By the way, when you rent an office, by the way, ask which buildings are for sale."

"BOSS, are we going to buy the industrial building? But we don't seem to have that much money."

Gascoigne's words were unanimously endorsed by Benedict and others.

Many years shook his head and said:

"Don't worry, you hurry up and collect information, I will arrange it as soon as possible and re-inject capital into the new company."

There are still one or two hundred million pounds lying in his space, and if this money is not spent, will it be kept as waste paper?

Besides, Hong Kong Island nowadays is cheap.

At this time, if you don't have the ability to use banknotes, do you have to wait for the price to be expensive before buying?

After the 80s, the family will return to the capital for many years.

However, it does not mean that I will not return to Hong Kong Island for many years.

In addition, the stronger he is on the Hong Kong Island side, the less anyone will come to him for trouble.

Like those rotten boys of Heliansheng before, they dared to come to the office of Zhongyong Daily to splash feces, not because they have been a nobody for many years.

But now?

All the associations in Hong Kong have received warnings from the four major Chinese detectives, and the senior police officers have personally ordered him, who would dare to touch him again?

As for the governors, the strength they have shown over the years has not yet entered the other party's field of vision.

Unless the influence of Zhongyong Daily and New Economic Daily is expanding day by day, it will be difficult!

Gascoigne and all of them said that there was no problem, listen to the boss, and eat well!

The next few days, many years, were spent dealing with these things.

China Resources, on the other hand, didn't pay much attention to it.

Since many years of taking the initiative to expose his manuscript fee and shareholder identity, Sun Guohua and Yu Guangyuan no longer require him to come to the tenement building every day to sign in and check in.

Anyway, it's a month's time, and it's coming soon.

When the time comes, it will be many years before you need to go to Europe and carry out the mission.

Although it is a four-month mission every year, for many years, it is considered to be a trip.

As soon as the two years were up, he left his job.

If it weren't for the fact that when he was in the capital before, the leader said that he was not allowed to leave his job early, and he would have just finished eight months and then resigned.

In recent days, Zhongyong Daily and New Economic Daily have successfully gained a foothold in the Hong Kong Island newspaper industry.

The sales of both newspapers have stabilized.

However, the benefits continued to be ceded to those merchants, and the proportion was not recovered.

For many years, I didn't value this benefit, on the contrary, if I could, let them, the businessmen, read the Zhongyong Daily and the New Economic Daily, which is better than anything else.

In the future, there will definitely be more than these two newspapers, and there will be more supplements or magazines.

Through posters or small cards, it can be seen that this market on Hong Kong Island still has a lot of room for profit.

It's just that today's white-collar workers and ordinary people have average spending power.

So, for many years, there was no rush to publish those color magazines.

The road must be walked step by step, the meal must be eaten one bite at a time, and there is no hurry!

On this day, King's Road, North Point, Ming Pao headquarters.

Shen Baoxin looked at the data that gradually stopped at the sales position of 95,000 copies, and his expression was extremely ugly.

"Shouldn't we think of something else?"

Sitting across from him was none other than Jin Dada.

It's just that Jin is obsessed with reading newspapers, and he still reads Zhongyong Daily.

Lu Ding Ji is a bit of a glamorous feeling, although it is a little vulgar, but whether it should be said or not, the effect is really good.

"Mr. Cha, can you stop looking at it yet? It's all burning eyebrows, and I'm still in the mood."

Looking at the partner in front of him, Shen Baoxin said with some anger and helplessness.

Jin Da raised his head at this time, "What do you want to do?" ”

"The Zhongyong Daily in your hand has sold more than 400,000 copies, aren't you in a hurry at all? If this continues, we will have to drink the northwest wind."

Since its establishment in 59, Ming Pao has gone through many hardships before it has come step by step to become a newspaper with great influence.

Just like in 1962, the editorial of the report on the "refugee influx" incident caused a great sensation in spite of the sensitivity and loud voice.

With this momentum, "Ming Pao" has transformed from a tabloid that relied on publishing martial arts and market gossip to please the small citizens to a newspaper of the times that has the responsibility of the times, dares to speak out, and is good at dissecting the current situation, and has been recognized and praised by the upper class and intellectuals.

As a newspaper with great influence, it is now in a bottleneck.

Not only in terms of sales, but also by the two newspapers of Zhongyong Daily and New Economic Daily, the influence of which has gradually decreased sharply.

You must know that seven years ago, Ming Pao was also an ordinary tabloid newspaper that used serialization, gossip, nude photos, etc. to please the public.

But seven years have passed, why is the sales of the same tabloids, New Economic Daily and Zhongyong Daily, beating Ming Pao?

This doesn't make sense!

"What do you drink the northwest wind?"

Jin Dada disagreed, and said:

"I've been chasing these three books recently, and I plan to reopen them in a few days."

"I promise that when the time comes, Ming Pao's sales will definitely return to the top"

Shen Baoxin nodded in agreement.

The two discussed, and Shen Baoxin sent someone to work.

He couldn't figure it out, why did the two newspapers, New Economic Daily and Zhongyong Daily, have such high sales?

The next morning, when he went out to work, he deliberately turned around and went to a newsstand near the newspaper office.

"What's the news in today's newspaper?"

The owner of the newsstand is an old man with small eyes.

However, although the eyes are small, the eyes are sharp and shrewd.

"Wow, you look at the New Economic Daily, there was a demon stock that rose very sharply yesterday, sir, if you speculate in stocks, pay more attention to this newspaper"

The little old man took out the newspaper on top and recommended it to Shen Baoxin.

The latter was a little confused, and didn't quite understand the little old man, why did he work so hard?

You know, he has also come to this newsstand to buy newspapers a few times before, but he has never seen the other party so enthusiastic.

In addition, he just observed that the newspapers in the most conspicuous position were the New Economic Daily and the Zhongyong Daily.

In the past, weren't they all put on the Cheng Bao, Sing Tao Evening News, Ming Pao, Ta Kung Pao and so on, and they came in turn?

Has that changed now?

Why has it changed?

In a daze, Shen Baoxin paid for the two newspapers, New Economic Daily and Zhongyong Daily.

Before leaving, he couldn't help but speak:

"Boss, I want to ask, why do you recommend me to buy two newspapers here instead of others?"

"Look, isn't Ming Pao a big newspaper? There are also Sing Tao Evening News, why don't you recommend these? ”

The little old man smiled, "Because I want to make money." ”

Then, the little old man didn't continue to talk to Shen Baoxin, because someone else came to buy the newspaper.

The little old man continued to recommend others to buy those two newspapers.

As for other newspapers such as Ming Pao and Sing Tao Evening News, the little old man was silent.

Shen Baoxin looked at this scene and was even more confused.

So he stood still and watched.

If he hadn't asked clearly, he would never have left.

However, he waited and waited, but never waited for the opportunity.

At this point, it's rush hour.

Although Shen Baoxin came early, this was the time when there were the most people, and he even saw several Ming Pao's subordinates.

When those subordinates saw him, they were like mice seeing cats, they didn't dare to say much, and after quickly paying for a new economic daily newspaper and a Zhongyong daily newspaper, they hurriedly ran away.

Even his subordinates were not happy to buy Ming Pao, but bought the opposite newspaper.

This made Shen Baoxin even more puzzled.

What is the reason for this?

After a long while, the little old man finally became idle, and Shen Baoxin seized the opportunity to ask.
