Just when everyone was speculating about what Du Yongxiao would do, Du Yongxiao, who was dressed in a white suit, came to the Kowloon Bus Company alone.

The front desk lady in charge of reception knew him and saw that he was about to get up and greet Du Yongxiao is okay, you sit down and gesture.

The front desk lady stopped talking.

Du Yongxiao smiled at her, and had already gone straight up the stairs to the fifth floor.

The front desk lady thought about it for a while, but immediately dialed the internal phone: "Boss Lei, Mr. Du is here." ”

When Du Yongxiao came to the general manager's office area on the fifth floor, he happened to see Lei Juekun sitting in the open office, facing the empty seat opposite the desk, placing teacups.

Seeing Du Yongxiao appear in the Kowloon Bus Company, Lei Juekun was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, Du Yongxiao also smiled, and wanted to enter Lei Juekun's office, but was blocked by Lei Juekun's personal bodyguard at the door.

"Ah Ju, don't even know Mr. Du Yongxiaodu? He's the Chief Superintendent of Hong Kong, so beware of your coffee. Lei Juekun said loudly to the bodyguard.

With his words, it seemed that the entire Kowloon Bus Company fell silent.

Du Yongxiao?

Hong Kong supertycoon?

That Chinese No. 1 Chief Superintendent?

The personal bodyguard stepped aside, his expression showed a hint of consternation, and he made a request to Du Yongxiao.

Du Yongxiao smiled at him, which made the bodyguard "flattered", thinking that this legendary ruthless man was very approachable, how could he have the appearance of "clean street tiger" and "bloody hand slaughter"?

Du Yongxiao stepped into Lei Juekun's office, sat down on the guest seat opposite Lei Juekun's desk with a natural expression, and looked at the calligraphy and painting hanging behind Lei Juekun, with a big "luck" written on it, and said with a smile: "Haven't changed it yet?" ”

Lei Juekun smiled slightly, and while instructing someone to replace the cup of tea in front of Du Yongxiao, he said: "I am in transportation, driving Kowloon Bus, and the word luck is very good, which represents transportation and fortune." ”

Du Yongxiao nodded, and glanced at the tea that was taken away: "There are still guests in front of me?" ”

"Hehe, a business partner." Lei Juekun didn't seem to want to talk more about it, sat back in his place, put his hands on the desk, and looked back at Du Yongxiao with a smile: "As for you, you just came back from the United States to see me, is there something wrong?" ”

Du Yongxiao smiled: "I said a big thing to the outside world, saying that I want to solve the rickshaw demonstration, and Boss Lei probably has already heard about it." ”

"I've heard of it." Lei Juekun nodded, and then gave Du Yongxiao a thumbs up: "This kind of thing can only be done by people like Ah Xiao, but if you are me, you can't do it." You also know that now our bus company is in the stage of reform, and our side is in a mess, so how can we be in the mood to take care of other people's affairs. ”

"Boss Lei is modest. Compared with popularity, than qualifications, in terms of transportation, you say first, no one dares to say second. If those rickshaws had been smarter, they should have gone straight to you to find a way to solve the problem, instead of finding me, a new man who didn't know much about the situation in Hong Kong. Du Yongxiao seemed to be smiling, and the corners of his mouth were unfathomable.

Everyone is a smart person, where would Lei Juekun not understand what Du Yongxiao meant.

Now the situation is obvious, those rickshaw drivers are already the products of the era, their only strength is to pull rickshaws, they are more familiar with the geographical environment of Hong Kong, especially through the streets and alleys are very sophisticated, but in addition, they have little ability.

If Lei Juekun has ambitions and wants to expand his taxi fleet, he can bring these rickshaw drivers under his command and let them change from pulling rickshaws to driving taxis.

Of course, in this way, Lei Juekun will bear a great burden.

First, the "training fee" of these rickshaw drivers, the "driver's license fee" for getting a driver's license, and the "living allowance" during their studies, etc., are all a lot of money.

In addition, most of these rickshaw drivers are rough people, have no culture, and don't even understand ABC, so it's a bit of a duck to get them on the shelves to get their driver's licenses.

In contrast, if Lei Juekun refuses to accept them, he can directly select them from among some young people with driver's licenses, and immediately save a lot of money.

Since Lei Juekun is in business, of course he is very good at settling accounts, at this moment he heard Du Yongxiao holding him out to help those rickshaw drivers, he laughed, took out Marlboro brand cigarettes from his pocket, handed one to Du Yongxiao, and put one in his mouth, and then took out the lighter, played with one hand skillfully, helped Du Yongxiao light it and then helped himself light it, and finally shook off the flame with a chic snap, and said with a cigarette: "If you are like you in your teens and full of spirit, maybe there is this kind of courage to help others, But now—" shrugging, "old, not saved!" ”

"People are not old, and mentality is the most important; Whether you are willing to help others or not, the heart is the most important. In order for Kowloon to develop transportation, the expansion of the rental system is inevitable, and from this point of view, it is always necessary to recruit manpower. Although those rickshaw drivers are not very educated, I believe that they are absolutely willing to learn in order to survive. The most important point-——" Du Yongxiao held a cigarette and looked at Lei Juekun seriously: "Is anyone willing to give them a chance?" ”

Lei Juekun leaned back in his chair and smiled disdainfully: "The opportunity is earned by yourself, not by others." Although they are pitiful, they have to work their own, so that they will not be out of touch with the times. But then again—"

Lei Juekun looked at Du Yongxiao in turn: "Since you have promised to help those rickshaw drivers, then help to the end, I and the other bigwigs all support you spiritually!" You yourself have said that you want to give them a chance, and I and others have no objection to this, after all, someone has to do it to make money, and someone has to be willing to do good deeds. ”

"Listen to what you mean, I will do this good deed, and Boss Lei will only watch from the sidelines?" Du Yongxiao flicked cigarette ash into the ashtray.

Lei Juekun picked up the teapot at hand, poured some tea into Du Yongxiao's teacup, then brushed his hair with his hand, and lowered his head with a little guilt: "Everyone has their own ambitions." You're still young and have a chance for trial and error, but I'm old and can't make a mistake. If you came here today just to ask me to help, then I'm sorry, I really can't accept those people-" After speaking, he raised his head and said to Du Yongxiao: "Yes, don't stop! ”

"You're not sorry for me, and you're not sorry for anyone. To tell the truth, I came here today just to ask casually, and I didn't mean to force you, after all, I took this matter by myself, and it has nothing to do with you. Du Yongxiao smiled faintly: "So we're still friends, aren't we?" ”

"Of course. You and I are still partners, and my Golden Princess Cinema has cooperated seamlessly with you Golden Harvest. This is the case in the business field, one yard is one yard, the brothers settle the accounts, and everything must be explained clearly. Lei Juekun sighed: "My tea is a good Pu'er, if you like it, you can drink a few more cups." ”

Du Yongxiao smiled.

"Let's drink tea another day. Now I'm going to go a few more places and solve the problem. Du Yongxiao flicked the cigarette ash and said lightly to Lei Juekun.

Since the other party wants to invite tea to send guests, Du Yongxiao is embarrassed to stay longer.

Lei Juekun stood up and looked at Du Yongxiao: "Since this is the case, I will not keep it anymore." Gotta drink tea. ”

"After I'm done with these things, I'll do the east." Du Yongxiao stood up, smiled at Lei Juekun and said.

The two chatted a few more words, and then Du Yongxiao turned around and walked outside: "I just returned to Hong Kong, and I really haven't been to many places yet, but today I have to run a few more." ”

Lei Juekun personally sent Du Yongxiao out of the gate of the Kowloon Bus Company, and watched Du Yongxiao get into the car driven by Yan Xiong and leave.

After Du Yongxiao left, Lei Juekun returned to his office, looking at Du Yongxiao in front of him without touching the cup of new tea.

At this time—

Li Jiacheng, a Chinese tycoon in a black suit, accompanied by barrister Song Bingshu, opened the door and walked out, sat in the position where Du Yongxiao had sat before, and looked at the cup of tea in front of him silently, just like Lei Juekun.

"Boss Li, do you know that Du Yongxiao is here?" Lei Juekun raised his head and looked at Li Jiacheng opposite, and asked.

Song Bingshu, the lawyer next to Li Jiacheng, also looked at his boss with a curious face.

Li Jiacheng is 48 years old this year, and he is in the prime of life.

Today, he owns the Cheung Kong Industrial Group, which has a real estate company, a plastic flower factory company, a financial company, and even a hydropower company related to the people's livelihood.

Among the Chinese tycoons in Hong Kong, although he is not the richest, he is the sharpest, and his entire business and business empire are thriving.

Back then, Li Jiacheng's first occupation was a salesman. At the age of 17, he was promoted to business manager, and soon after that, he was promoted to general manager. He started his business at the age of 22 with all his assets of only 50,000 yuan. At the age of 29, he became the "King of Plastic Flowers".

At 48 years old this year, he will be the first time he has become Hong Kong's chief chaebol in another decade. At the age of 60, he was named the richest man in China by Fortune magazine.

"Whether he knows I'm here or not, I don't know; I only know that it is not the right time for him to come back-—— he is young and vigorous, and even the Hong Kong government is afraid of him, which is not a good thing. ”

There was a pause-——

"If I were him, I might have chosen not to wade into this muddy water, but unfortunately, there was no if. Now all he can do is bite the bullet and go ahead! As for us—"

Li Jiacheng glanced at Lei Juekun: "Then we have to make this muddy water even more muddy!" ”

After speaking, Li Jiacheng picked up the cup of tea that Du Yongxiao had never touched, took a sip, and his expression was full of joy.

……

Du Yongxiao came to visit the Kowloon Bus boss Lei Juekun, hoping that the other party's help would spread soon.

Lei Juekun is the leading traffic king among the Chinese in Hong Kong, and he owns the largest taxi company, with 300 taxis placed in his company.

On the other hand, it can be seen that although Du Yongxiao is very famous, he has been away from Hong Kong for too long, and his "strength" is obviously insufficient.

Hong Kong is a small place, but the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and he, a rookie who has developed in the United States, has obviously not been able to keep up with the rhythm of Hong Kong.

So much so that now many people sing about Du Yongxiao, and even make up children's songs-——

"Du Yongxiao Du Yongxiao, the United States came back to joke; Everyone changed their shotguns for cannons, but the more he mixed up, the more he retreated, the more late he became. ”

Of course, at a glance, you can see that these things are specially arranged by some well-intentioned people.

No matter how bad Du Yongxiao is, he is also a super tycoon, how can he be so unbearable?

It's just that these rumors have convinced those people who don't know the inside story and don't know the depth of Du Yongxiao.

And so—

In response to Du Yongxiao, different classes in Hong Kong began to voice different voices-——

The British government in Hong Kong urged Du Yongxiao, as the Chinese Chief Superintendent, to resolve the issue of the rickshaw driver's demonstration as soon as possible before resigning-——

"Where the responsibilities are, implement them as soon as possible; lest we be truthful and accuse the Force of being unsuccessful. ”

"Since you are boasting about Haikou, you must go all out! Don't pass the buck, and don't fool the people! ”

In Hong Kong's upper class, they were suspicious of Du Yongxiao's strength, and their previous fear of Du Yongxiao turned into disdain-——

"It turns out that the legendary billionaire is so virtuous that he can't even solve a demonstration."

"What a super tycoon, what a Chinese chief superintendent, it's all blown out!"

"Don't think it's even worse to come back from a trip to the United States, it looks like we think highly of him."

For the poor people in Hong Kong, Du Yongxiao used to give them the impression that he was mysterious and omnipotent, but this time, he -——

"The mysterious Du Yongxiao fell off the altar and looked for help everywhere but drank cold water."

"Explosive insider, the battle of defeat before the resignation of the First Chinese Chief Superintendent!"

"Asking for the people's lives and falling to the bottom, how can we turn the tables against the wind!"

Under these disturbing public opinion-

Chinese tycoon Li Jiacheng gathered many Chinese businessmen to gather at the Chinese Entrepreneurs Association in Sai Yeung Cai Street to hold a symposium on "The Rise and Fall of Hong Kong's Transportation".

The main purpose of the meeting is to completely eradicate the "rickshaw", which is an obsolete product of the times, especially the rickshaw now does more harm than good, obstructs traffic, disrupts public order, and likes to form gangs and factions.

In contrast, another theme of the conference was, "The Future and Development of Taxi." ”

According to Li Jiacheng's intentions, Cheung Kong is ready to join hands with Kowloon Motor Bus Group to build the largest "taxi company" in Hong Kong, with a total of 3,000 taxis; It covers Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories, and even goes deep into Macau.

……

At the same time—

As a "male pig's foot" of public opinion, Du Yongxiao is experiencing life, to be precise, experiencing Hong Kong's taxis.

Since his development, Du Yongxiao has either traveled by car or by private car.

The drivers ranged from Datouwen, to Zhuang Dingxian, to Yan Xiong and so on.

These people are all prominent figures in Hong Kong, for example, the current Datou Wennai is the first chief inspector on Hong Kong Island, with a high and powerful position.

Chong Ting-yin replaced Yam Tat-yun as the chief instructor of the Hong Kong Flying Tigers.

Not to mention Yan Xiong, the former four detectives are now group representatives, directors, directors and so on.

Now Yan Xiong is working as Du Yongxiao's temporary private driver.

Hearing Du Yongxiao say that he was going to take a taxi today, Yan Xiong looked confused, thinking that Du Yongxiao was in a bad mood when he heard those public opinions, and was about to speak, but saw Du Yongxiao waving at the taxi not far away.

The driver was picking his nose in the car, and suddenly saw Du Yongxiao waving his hand, subconsciously wiped his nose on the car window, kicked the accelerator, and came to Du Yongxiao with a poof: "Boss, go to the side?" ”

"General Chinese Chamber of Commerce!"

"Oh, I'm familiar with that place, it's on Hong Kong Island Watercress Street! Hurry up and get in the car! "The driver guy was very welcoming.

Du Yongxiao smiled and got into the car.

Yan Xiong could see clearly from behind, and hurriedly beckoned back.

Behind are two BMWs, a total of eight people, all of whom are retired members of the police force, temporarily acting as Du Yongxiao's personal bodyguards.

Seeing this, the eight people hurriedly got into the car.

Yan Xiong also sat on the Rolls-Royce and drove behind Du Yongxiao.

And so—

The taxi was followed by a Rolls-Royce, two BMWs.

The driver saw it in the rearview mirror, and he didn't know that those people were following Du Yongxiao, so he pouted and said: "Now these rich guys are really interesting, you see, they don't overtake, they just follow our ass and eat fart!" Ha ha! ”

"What, you're not used to it?"

"Of course! These rich guys are generally arrogant and ruthless, and often overtake! Made, often let me eat car fart! ”

This driver boss, like many drivers, has an occupational disease and is a talker.

From the moment Du Yongxiao got in the car, he began to keep talking.

Du Yongxiao was not interested in chatting with him, but the driver had a very high ability to blow water, and talked about some strange things, saying that there were female ghosts in Heheshi Cemetery in the New Territories recently, who were very beautiful, with long hair and red clothes, and took a taxi at night to give him money; It is also said that there was a corpse crushing murder in Tin Shui Wai, and a strange black cat appeared at the scene, and the black cat could actually learn to speak......

Du Yongxiao shook his head when he heard this.

These drivers drive people every day, and these stories are either heard on the radio or read from the newspapers; In order to attract attention and promote sales, Hong Kong's newspapers and magazines, big and small, even add fuel and vinegar to these bizarre "stories" for hype, which has no professional ethics at all.

However, if you think about it carefully, Hong Kong is such a small place, there are more than 200 newspaper offices, and in order to survive, it is inevitable that they will unscrupulously engage in some "hot" news, and if they can sell the newspapers, it will be a victory, and who cares whether these news are true or false.

In about ten minutes, Du Yongxiao took a taxi to the headquarters of the Chinese businessmen.

Du Yongxiao glanced at the meter (meter) in the back of the car, and it cost almost six yuan.

The driver didn't know that Du Yongxiao looked at the "meter", and when he saw the station, he habitually stretched out his slap and patted the meter, and said: "Chenghui, eight yuan!" ”

Du Yongxiao could see clearly that after the "meter" was slapped, the price immediately jumped from "six yuan" to "eight yuan".

The trick of "skipping the meter" is a common trick used by many drivers in this era, of course, it also depends on who the passenger is.

Obviously, this driver boss regards Du Yongxiao as a Kaizi.

Du Yongxiao smiled, didn't say anything, and handed over ten yuan directly.

The driver was about to look for two yuan, Du Yongxiao said: "No need to look for it-—— na, this is your company's complaint number?" ”

Du Yongxiao glanced at the taxi license in front of the car, as well as the details of the driver and, of course, the complaint number of the taxi company.

The driver boss was stunned for a moment, and immediately smiled: "I'm sorry, I seem to have miscalculated just now-—— I should have found you four yuan!" ”

Du Yongxiao also smiled: "I'm not good at math and don't know much, but it seems that you have written 'The complaint is successful, and the compensation will be three times'-" refers to the small print under the complaint column.

The driver boss was stunned again: "You're lucky, it's free today!" ”

……

Hong Kong Island Sai Yeung Street——

General Association of Chinese Entrepreneurs, Conference Room

"That's the territory covered by our taxi company, three places on Hong Kong Island, plus Macau, 3,000 vehicles! In the future, we intend to -——"

Lei Juekun, the "traffic king", stood in the conference room and talked eloquently.

Li Jiacheng sat next to him, even more high-spirited.

In Hong Kong in this era, there were three kinds of taxis, namely the urban taxi, commonly known as "Red Bird", which was painted red and could travel across the three islands of Hong Kong.

In addition, there are New Territories taxis, commonly known as "grasshoppers", which are painted green and can only be driven in the New Territories.

The last type of Lantau taxi, commonly known as the "Blue Lantern", has a blue body and can only be used to solicit passengers within the Lantau area.

It can be said that these three types of taxis are distinct, and each has its own territory and cannot be crossed.

However, Lei Juekun and Li Jiacheng have already designed it, and if the "taxi empire" they created this time takes shape, then they can completely break this boundary, because the three places are theirs, and they have the final say.

"Awesome!"

"yes, isn't this a domination of the rivers and lakes?"

Everyone nodded their heads and expressed their admiration for Lei Juekun and Li Jiacheng joining forces to build Hong Kong's first taxi company.

Almost all of the people who came here today are leaders from all walks of life.

Among them are real estate tycoons Li Zhaoji, Feng Jingxi, Guo Desheng, as well as Hong Kong jewelry king Cheng Yutong, Hong Kong garment king Lin Baixin, Hong Kong steel king Pang Dingyuan, and even the Huo family also sent people to attend, he is Huo Dashao.

It can be said that today's big men in Hong Kong have given face to Lei Juekun and Li Jiacheng.

Lei Juekun is nothing.

He had a good relationship with Du Yongxiao before, and even partners.

Now the only thing he's happy about is to make a big splash and become the real king of Hong Kong with the help of those British, controlling buses, taxis, and even the subway!

Li Jiacheng is fully satisfied in his heart.

All along, he was pressed on his head by Du Yongxiao, and he couldn't be high-spirited or panting.

I thought that Du Yongxiao's return this time would set off a storm and sweep the entire Xiangjiang business community.

Unexpectedly, Du Yongxiao fell into the quagmire and couldn't extricate himself, but in turn gave him a chance.

He was rich and powerful, and the British were optimistic about him, and took the initiative to introduce him to Lei Juekun, prompting the two groups to cooperate.

Li Jiacheng feels that this is the reason why he has a sharp vision and stands in line.

Where is it?

This is Hong Kong!

Who is in charge of Hong Kong?

British, of course!

So if you want to develop in Hong Kong, how can you go against the British?

Of course, we must follow them and have a good relationship with them.

Look, now the payoff is coming.

There are so many elite Chinese businessmen, and the ghost guy didn't look at any of them, so he chose to cooperate with the Lei Group.

Li Jiacheng understands that this is also a ghost who has a lot of eyes, and wants to adopt a checks and balances strategy, and does not want the Lei Group to be dominant, and when the time comes, it will be difficult to control it, so he will push himself out.

But this is also trust, trust!

If you don't trust it, how can the ghost give you such a big fat meat to eat?

In a word-

"Whoever gets a ghost guy wins the world!"
