In the business of greyhound racing, even though Chu Xiangqian knew that the prospects were very good, he knew in his heart that he couldn't handle it at all.

Even if the big and small horses go to Lei Luo's detectives, it won't take two or three years to be targeted by the British, local dignitaries and wealthy families.

When the time comes, if the big and small horses dare to die and carry it, it is not surprising that they will be eaten alive by life.

And the Jockey Club won't watch someone grab customers with them, and if you make a small fuss, people won't necessarily pay attention to you.

But once there is a threat to Tsushima, the custodian will try his best to suppress it.

This is also the reason why the future greyhound racing event will only be held in Macau.

Moreover, the shareholders of this event are all giant businessmen in Hong Kong and Macao.

But for the current big and small horses, the prospects of this business are far more predicative than the word flower stalls.

And even if the scale is not large, there must be a lot of money to make, and even the scale is not large, but it is the most suitable for them.

As for what Chu Xiangqian said, publishing the results of the competition in the newspaper also made the brothers understand that this would greatly improve the business of the newspaper.

Chu Xiangqian also told these thoughts to the big and small horses in advance.

The brothers not only believed it, but also felt that he was too particular about this person.

didn't just pour ecstasy soup on his brothers.

The 500,000 yuan and a property in the secret road are indeed worth it, no wonder a big guy of the level of Bai Fanyu stays with Chu Xiangqian all day long.

As for the things that will be suppressed after the business grows bigger, although the big and small horses are a little worried, they don't pay much attention to it.

It's a big deal that the greyhound race is only greyhound racing, and the bets and the like are all off the field.

After all, there are also off-field bets in football events, and I didn't see the game stopped because of this.

After the end, seeing Chu Xiangqian and Bai Fanyu leave, Xiao Ma said to the eldest brother, "Big guy, you still have vision, and you made up your mind to have a good relationship with the surname Chu yesterday."

Not to mention 1 million, just to report the ranking of greyhound racing in the newspaper, I am willing to pay 500,000. ”

Malaysia nodded, which made it easier to place off-court bets.

The more people watch, the more people will participate.

Thinking of this, Da Ma sighed, "It seems that our brothers are really not the material of the board report." Knowing that a few good cards are in your hand, you don't know that they are good cards.

I don't know how to hit it. ”

Xiao Ma nodded, the shock that Chu Xiangqian gave himself today made him understand that doing business really requires talent and brains.

——

Chu drove forward, listening to Bai Fanyu in the co-pilot seat, "Ah Chu, do you think I want to cooperate with the big and small horses once?" ”

Chu Xiangqian shook his head directly, "Look at it, the business of greyhound racing will be changed to the Jockey Club, then everything is possible."

can be replaced by a small pony, and if you want to apply for a license, the Jockey Club will not agree.

When the time comes, it will definitely only be made into an entertainment project.

Since you can't bet on the field, the scale of this business is huge.

Instead of focusing on that, you might as well go to Macau and apply for a greyhound race. ”

Bai Fanyu was stunned for a moment, "Then why don't you tell the big and small horses about this?" ”

Chu shrugged forward and said with a smile, "Uncle, let me ask you, is the idea of greyhound racing worth 1 million?" ”

Bai Rice Fish laughed after hearing this, "It's worth it, of course it's worth it, but it's a pity that it's a business that can be compared to the Jockey Club, but it can't be done." Just thinking about it hurts the flesh. ”

This is really not nonsense, the 63-year Macau greyhound racing event has been interrupted for many years, and after the official start again, many ordinary people are interested in this race, far from Ma Qiang.

The reason is simple, the horse race is too tall.

It's a rich man's toy, and it's not a game that the average rich person plays.

Greyhound racing is a game that ordinary people can touch, raise and participate in.

For more than a decade, the attention of this race once surpassed that of horse racing.

It's a pity that the Jockey Club is not a vegetarian, and the people of Hong Kong Island are slowly getting rich, but they are starting to look down on this race.

However, before the decline, if you look at the directors of the Macau Greyhound Racing Company, there are several people surnamed He, as well as Shark Tong, you can know that this business is really profitable and very influential.

When he was about to arrive on the set, Chu Xiangqian thought about it for a while, and then said to Bai Fanyu, "Uncle, help me get a fishing boat, I have to go to sea alone." ”

Bai Fanyu looked at Chu Xiangqian in surprise, "Ah Chu, don't touch the flour." ”

"Where do you want to go", Chu Xiangqian laughed, "I asked someone to get a white tiger from the ice and snow in the north." I plan to exchange some robbed antiques with the nobles of England.

When the time comes, as long as I am not a traitor on Hong Kong Island, the upper authorities will have to help me once.

With this guarantee, it is a golden body.

And if I have a relationship with the nobles on the English side, the ghosts on Hong Kong Island want to worry about my money, so I have to weigh and weigh more. ”

Bai Fanyu's eyes lit up, and he thought about it silently, it was really the same as what Chu Xiangqian said.

Unless Chu Xiangqian is a great traitor in the future, the Celestial Empire will never allow anyone to kill Chu Xiangqian.

Then he thought of Lei Luo, his son-in-law is indeed capable, but he can't speak English, and his eyes have always been staring at his own one-third of an acre, so that he has now come to an end.

But if you catch up with the ghost guy in England through Chu Qianqian, maybe you can upgrade to the inspector level.

When the time comes, the front can be advanced, and there is a way to retreat, and the situation will be revitalized all of a sudden.

"Okay, I'll let Daguang do it himself in a while. Keep it for you, get you a good boat, and then find someone to teach you how to sail alone. ”

Chu Xiangqian smiled at the corner of his mouth and took the rice fish into the set.

After watching the shooting for an afternoon, and then watching the movie that was washed out last night and roughly cut, I was immediately relieved to hand over all the shooting in the next few days to the director and photographer.

I took the master tape, had dinner with the rice fish and left.

Chu Xiangqian found a phone booth and informed Chief Superintendent Charles of the Yau Ma Tei Police Station that he could contact Norton on the English side.

Charles hurriedly agreed, and not only did he not complain at all about Chu Xiangqian's letting him be a mouthpiece, but he was also very grateful.

"Chu, I will inform you as soon as there is news."

Chu Xiangqian casually said a few perfunctory words and hung up the phone.

The next morning, I brushed all the wild monsters in the novice village. Then he practiced martial arts, rode horses, practiced archery, took a bath, and drove out to the typhoon shelter.

Carrying a large backpack and a pair of fishing gear, chairs, convenient water tanks and other things in both hands, he came to the beach and waited for Qian Guotai while fishing.

From time to time, the chickadee flies around the seawall a few times, and if someone follows or stares at them, they will be spotted immediately.

At about 11 o'clock in the morning, Qian Guotai also came over with a fishing rod, sat directly on a stone with a smile and said, "How long have you been here?" ”

Chu Xiangqian, who had been waiting for two hours, couldn't help but roll his eyes, fortunately, his advanced fishing skills were really good, and in more than two hours, he caught more than a dozen sea fish.

On the way here this morning, I bought a newspaper from a newspaper and handed it to the past.

Qian Guotai took the newspaper in surprise and looked at it carefully.

But after reading it all, except that I felt that this newspaper was not small, and I dared to break the news that a popular martial arts actress and a rich boy had a candlelight dinner, I didn't think there was anything special in the newspaper.

But how did Qian Guotai know, Chu Xiangqian was thinking that before his movie was released, he would make the reputation of a popular martial arts star ugly.

And the newspaper didn't wronged the actress this time, she did have an ambiguous relationship with the other party when she knew that the rich second generation had a fiancée.

Fools know that she wants to destroy other people's family affairs, hoping that she can marry into a wealthy family.

It's a pity that the current wealthy families on Hong Kong Island have never looked down on female stars, and they feel that they not only show their heads, but also scratch their heads in the movie, and they are not good daughters-in-law.

Qian Guotai put down the newspaper, "Say something quickly." ”

Chu Xiangqian didn't rush to say that he had acquired Dongfang Daily, "Do you think this newspaper is attractive to you?" ”

Qian Guotai thought about it, and after reading it, he really wanted to read tomorrow's newspaper.

Chu Xiangqian saw him nodding and couldn't help laughing, "The day before yesterday, I spent 300,000 Hong Kong dollars to buy 70% of the shares of this newspaper.

If nothing else, the newspaper will be able to sell 20,000 copies in the past few days. ”

"What?" Qian Guotai stood up directly in shock, looked at Chu Xiangqian for a long time, and then stammered and asked, "You didn't lie to me?" ”

Chu Xiangqian put away the fishing rod, took out a box of fine cigars from his pocket, lit one and handed it to Qian Guotai.

Then he also took a sip before he said with a smile, "The effect of the newspaper revision seems to be good, and within a month or two, the sales of this newspaper should exceed 50,000 copies."

At that time, I will also be regarded as one of the newspaper tycoons on Hong Kong Island, Uncle Qian, you said that you should be very satisfied with my performance, right? ”

Qian Guotai swallowed his saliva, and secretly said that he was not only satisfied, but simply frightened.

"How the hell did you do that? Also, where did you get the 300,000 Hong Kong dollars? ”

Chu Xiangqian smiled at the corner of his mouth, "Fuxing's pony, Hongxing's surnamed Jiang, and Dongxing's Lin San are three fools who have to play cards with me, and they gave me more than 600,000 yuan in one night."

I spent 300,000 yuan to buy 70% of the shares of the newspaper in Xiaoma. ”

Qian Guotai just wanted to say, you are violating discipline.

But when the words came to his lips, he remembered that Chu Xiangqian was not a public official and had not joined the organization.

How can I have the qualifications and identity to educate him?

In the end, I could only ask, "You came to me, is that what you mean?" ”

Chu Xiangqian casually lifted the backpack beside him, still beside Qian Guotai, "There are 2.4 million Hong Kong dollars inside, which is just equivalent to 150,000 pounds."

The money is given to you, tell the superiors, it's time to give me what was promised to me. ”

After getting 500,000 from Malaysia yesterday, the cash in hand has reached 4.79 million.

There is no need for money recently, Chu Xiangqian just thought, first get the 100 kilograms of mutton fat and Tian Yu, 100 kilograms of bloodstone and 100 kilograms of Shoushan Tianhuang.

Qian Guotai swallowed his saliva again, this is 2.4 million Hong Kong dollars, and he was actually brought to him by Chu Xiangqian casually.

As for the 300 kilograms of three kinds of jade that Chu Xiangqian wanted, it had already been prepared before he left the capital.

There is no opinion on the exchange of jade for foreign exchange, and it has been decided.

Only the exchange of 150,000 pounds for gold bars has made the boss hesitate, and there is no conclusion until now.

But now that Chu Xiangqian has become the owner of the newspaper, and he has only been in Hong Kong for less than three months, and he can come up with so much money, everything seems to be different again.

Qian Guotai opened his backpack and made sure that it was full of money, and stammered with a sweaty heart, "You, you are so relieved to let me go back with so much money alone?"

In case of robbery, I can't afford to kill me. ”

Chu Qianqian glanced at Qian Guotai, "Could it be that I want to send ten or eight strong men to escort you back?" If you do that, a fool will suspect you.

As for cheques, it is easier to know who wrote the cheques if you want to check them.

On the contrary, cash is the safest and the most difficult to trace. ”

Qian Guotai understands this truth, but 2.4 million is really too much.

Chu Xiangqian said angrily, "Okay, I'll follow you and escort you back from a distance, okay?" ”

Qian Guotai breathed a sigh of relief.

As for Chu Xiangqian's force value, it was fought after several actual battles.

And this guy is small-hearted and extremely vindictive, whoever robbed him of his money will definitely have to face endless revenge.

Qian Guotai no longer has the heart to fish, and he is not in the mood to care if Chu Xiangqian has other things.

I didn't want a fishing rod, so I picked up my backpack and said, "Let's go, keep the money first, and then talk about the rest."

Also, next time you have a lot of cash to hand over to me, please don't make an appointment in such a remote place, okay? ”

Chu Xiangqian showed a contemptuous look, and when he saw Qian Guotai's worried and eager expression, he didn't embarrass him anymore.

Put away the fishing rod and other things, then pick out a grouper from the bucket, and pour all the other fish back into the sea, and follow Qian Guotai away.

Then I followed his car all the way, crossed the sea to Wan Chai, and saw him enter Queen's Road East, the Xinhao Club branch building, and then turned around and left at an intersection.

I crossed the sea again and arrived at the newspaper office in Tsim Sha Sha Tsui East, and as soon as I entered, I saw more than a dozen employees inside, all of whom were busy sweating profusely.

When I saw my new boss, not only was I smiling, but I also greeted him a lot louder.

When I arrived at the office of the editor-in-chief He Yisheng, He Yisheng was talking to someone on the phone.

Chu waved his hand forward, signaling him to leave himself alone.

After sitting and listening for a while, a secretary brought in a cup of coffee, and Chu Xiangqian also understood that He Yisheng was discussing the new printing contract and price with the people in the printing house.

After drinking a cup of coffee, He Yisheng, who hung up the phone, said excitedly, "Boss, 20,000 newspapers will be sold out at about 11 o'clock, and if you look like this, you may be able to break through to 30,000 copies tomorrow." ”

Chu Qianqian nodded, his heart was quite calm, and asked with a smile, "Have you done an investigation?" Is it because our revised content is popular with customers, or is it because we give 2 points to newspaper bosses that it sells better? ”

He Yisheng nodded hurriedly, "There is indeed a big reason why the bosses of newspapers and periodicals are more willing to recommend our newspapers." But I believe that customers are willing to sell, and they are still attracted by the newspaper headlines.

After all, ordinary people are actually very assertive, and they are not so easily influenced by newspaper bosses. ”

Chu Xiangqian thought about it and knew that what He Yisheng said was right.

When I used to buy something, the supermarket recommendation was just to take a look, and if the thing didn't attract me, I immediately turned around and left.

"Is there a plan for recruitment?"

He Yisheng smiled awkwardly, "I was too busy in the morning, and I thought about homework all night, and I felt that recruiting 50 people at once was a bit of a waste of resources, so it was better to recruit 2 or 30 people first, and then recruit slowly depending on the situation."

lest you ask for too many people at once, and invite a lot of people who are indiscriminate. ”

Chu Xiangqian shook his head, "I suggest you let people go to a few sets and recruit some clever people from the group performance." And I'll be honest with you, in my plan, the newspaper will sell more than 100,000 a day in a year. ”

He Yisheng was stunned for a moment, and was about to say, 'How is it possible', after all, at this time, the sales of all newspapers in Hong Kong more than 40 newspapers every day are only 540,000 copies.

But considering that the newspaper has doubled its sales in just one day, and it may be able to break 30,000 copies tomorrow, it doesn't seem difficult to achieve the boss's goal in a year.

Then I thought that since the newspaper focuses on gossip entertainment, the group performances on the set not only know many celebrities, but also know the gossip of many celebrities, and they do know how to find news in this area better than the newcomers in the society.
