Chapter 581 Going to Hong Kong Island

Time flies, time passes quietly and unconsciously.

Reform and opening up are still continuing, and the pace is getting faster and faster, and the results are becoming more and more significant.

Donghai's economy has been growing year after year, especially in recent years. Countless small and medium-sized enterprises have rushed to the forefront, and all walks of life have ushered in a spurt of development.

With Lu Qingyi's joining, Yang Xun's shopping mall had sufficient funds and quickly completed the decoration. Seeing that the new shopping mall building was completely completed and accepted, it should have attracted investment in advance, but Yang Xun did not do so. , but waited until the decoration of the shopping mall was completed, the completion acceptance, and the handover with the construction team were completed, and then all the remaining money in the company's account was spent on advertising.

Television, radio, newspapers, radio stations, and several cars carrying loudspeakers cruise around the city every day. Behind the gong and drum team are retired old men and women holding signs. The signs are full of when the mall is scheduled to open.

Yang Xun also learned this trick from Song Yunping. Seeing that Jinxiu Clothing's business became more and more prosperous by relying on advertising, Yang Xun certainly followed suit.

Fortunately, the effect was good. On the day the advertisement was put out, I don’t know how many people called to inquire about it.

Although there are several markets in Donghai, there is also no shortage of department stores. However, like Yang Xun, it is the first comprehensive lifestyle mall in Donghai that integrates food, drink, entertainment, clothing and department stores.

Especially on the top floor of the shopping mall, there is a cinema that Yang Xun spent a huge amount of money to build. All the equipment are the most advanced on the market.

Less than two o'clock after the news of the shopping mall's leasing was released, the phone number of the sales department was completely overwhelmed. The whole company was extremely busy. There were waves of merchants who came to see the shop. If the mall wasn't big enough, , Yang Xun had made sufficient preparations in advance, but he was afraid that it would be a mess.

This phenomenon lasted for five days, and some even went to the mall for several days in a row, fearing that the shop they were looking for would be robbed by someone else.

And as Song Yunping had promised Yang Xun at the beginning, she rented several connected storefronts in the clothing area of ​​Yang Xun's shopping mall. The location was right next to the escalator. It was the best location in the entire clothing area, even for the decoration. From the very beginning, the store manager of Jinxiu Clothing’s flagship store in Donghai came and watched in person.

Until the official opening of the mall, a full month had passed since the day of advertising, and all the merchants had officially moved in.

Yang Xun also held a special ribbon-cutting ceremony. Donghai's top leaders came to celebrate in person. Lu Qingyi and Wang Zhong's family were also invited.

Secretary Yang was sitting under the stage with Wang Zhong and Song Yunping. Looking at his son dressed in a suit on the stage, chatting and laughing with the leaders, tears filled his eyes and the corners of his mouth without knowing when. When did he raise his head, he put on a knowing smile. The smile was filled with joy for his son, and he was proud that his son had achieved such an achievement today.

After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Yang Xun was still busy, so Secretary Yang could only follow Wang Zhong and Song Yunping's family. Originally, Yang Xun's younger brothers and sisters also clamored to come over, but today is neither the weekend nor the family. During the holidays, Secretary Yang asked them to study hard in school and not allow them to think wildly on the grounds that their studies were the most important thing. He followed Yang Xun to the East China Sea.

But with the opening soon, Yang Xun was too busy, and the phone in his hand almost never stopped, so naturally he had no time to spend with his mother.

"Let's go in and take a walk!" Mother Yang looked at the modern shopping mall building in front of her that was very different from the small village where she lived, with curiosity in her eyes.

"Just in time, Yang Xun should be busy for a while, let's go in and take a stroll!" Song Yunping handed her children to Wang Zhong, while she held Secretary Yang's hand, and they entered the mall side by side.

After walking around, Mother Yang was more and more shocked. The floors were covered with smooth and translucent tiles, there were staggered escalators, elevators that went straight up and down, and handrails made of transparent glass...

Looking at the interior of the exquisitely decorated shopping mall, Secretary Yang's eyes widened, his mouth opened slightly, and his eyes were full of shock. This was a completely different world from Shanbei Brigade and Hongwei Town.

"Secretary Yang, let's go sit in our store first!" Song Yunping took Secretary Yang and went straight to her flagship store.

The decorations of Jinxiu Clothing's flagship stores are all in the same style, spacious, simple, and bright. Except for the subtle differences in placement, the rest are no different from Jinxiu Clothing stores in the county.

"Xiaoping, how much is the monthly rent for your store?" Secretary Yang looked at everything in the store curiously.

Song Yunping said: "It's not expensive, it only costs a few thousand yuan a year!"

"Thousands of dollars a year?" Secretary Yang was stunned and turned to look at Song Yunping in shock: "Is the rent so expensive?"

Song Yunping said with a smile: "This is a shopping mall, it's different from the shops outside!"

"Then it doesn't have to be so expensive, right? My annual salary is not that much." Secretary Yang has now retired and is no longer the secretary of the brigade, but when she was the secretary before, her salary for so many years added up. I don’t know if it’s several thousand dollars.

"That's because you don't know how much it cost to build Yang Xun's shopping mall. If you knew, you wouldn't think it was expensive!" Wang Zhong had already taken his children to the children's play area, one floor above the clothing area.

"How much did it cost?" Secretary Yang frowned and asked curiously.

Song Yunping said: "Such a big shopping mall would cost millions to build!"

"How many millions?" The look of shock on Secretary Yang's face never dissipated. She knew that her son was doing a lot of business outside and had made a lot of money, but she never thought that her son's business would Do it on such a big scale, several million? Secretary Yang couldn't even think of this number.

"My store costs thousands. There are nearly a hundred stores in this shopping mall. The total rent is hundreds of thousands. This is only for one year. The cinema upstairs and the one below Supermarkets, these are all profitable businesses, and you can earn back these millions in a few years.”

Song Yunping's words were completely beyond what Secretary Yang could accept, and Secretary Yang's mind was already a little down.

······
Until he returned to Shanbei Brigade, Secretary Yang was still a little dizzy and thought he was dreaming.

Yang Xun's shopping mall has officially opened, and the development of Jinxiu Clothing continues. Song Yunping still insists on running to the workshop every day to strictly control the quality.

Wang Zhong, on the other hand, went south to Shencheng alone, preparing to go to Hong Kong Island to implement the next development plan of Jinxiu Clothing.

Wang Zhong applied for a tourist visa, which took a lot of effort, and it was so tiring that Lu Qingyi asked a lot of favors to get in, and then it was done.

Today's Hong Kong Island is also booming, with countless talents emerging from all walks of life.

This is not Wang Zhong's first time in Hong Kong Island. He is already familiar with the roads, and Wang Zhong's fluent and authentic Cantonese is enough to make his stay in Hong Kong Island comfortable.

The reason why Wang Zhong did not bring Song Yunping and his children to Hong Kong Island was because Hong Kong Island was in its most chaotic period at this time. Gangs were rampant, capital was in power, and there were endless robberies and shootings. The social order was very chaotic.

"Sheng Wang, the hotel has been booked. Let's go to the hotel first and settle down before meeting Mr. Zhang tomorrow!" Although Wang Zhong is familiar with Hong Kong Island, he has neither friends nor acquaintances in Hong Kong Island today. It's not that easy to get things done, so Wang Zhong had already hired a guide in advance before entering Hong Kong Island.

"How are things going in the company?" Wang Zhong, who was sitting in the back row, asked.

The co-pilot's guide said: "It has been registered and all the procedures are complete. We just need Mr. Wang to sign. Then the magazine will belong to you, Mr. Wang."

Wang Zhong smiled and praised: "It's quite fast!"

The guide smiled and said: "This is like this in Hong Kong Island. As long as you have money, there is nothing you can't do!"

"The more money you give, the faster things will be done?" Wang Zhong said with a smile.

The guide also smiled. Looking at the steady Wang Zhong in the rearview mirror, he couldn't help but curiously said: "Mr. Wang doesn't look like a mainlander." "Don't he?" Wang Zhong said.

"It's not like that!" the guide shook his head and said, "Mr. Wang looks more like us Hong Kong Islanders, like those big bosses."

Wang Zhong smiled slightly and did not answer. Instead, he changed his voice and said, "There is one more thing. If you can handle it, I will give you another ten thousand!"

"Mr. Wang, just ask!" The guide's eyes lit up, and a flattering smile suddenly appeared on his face. He turned his head and looked at Wang Zhong eagerly.

······
Three days later, at the Peninsula Hotel, there was a cup of steaming tea on the table. Wang Zhong was sitting at the table, holding a newspaper in his hand, reading intently.

"Wang Sheng?" A mellow and distinctive voice came into Wang Zhong's ears. Wang Zhong looked up and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"It's me, Zhang Sheng! Please sit down!" Wang Chong said with a smile and raised his hand.

The visitor was none other than Zhang Guorong, one of Wang Zhong's favorite Hong Kong stars who played Ning Caichen's brother in "A Chinese Ghost Story".

At this time, Zhang Guorong was wearing a leather jacket, with his hair parted in the middle combed back. Even though he was wearing sunglasses, he couldn't hide his handsome face and unique temperament.

"Which piece of music was composed by Wang Sheng?" Zhang Guorong took off his sunglasses and said straight to the point.

"It's me!" Wang Zhong snapped his fingers, and the hotel waiter rushed over immediately: "What are your orders, sir?"

"What would Zhang Sheng want to drink?" Wang Zhong looked at Zhang Guorong very politely.

"Coffee, thank you!" Zhang Guorong smiled and said to the waiter, then his eyes immediately moved back to Wang Zhong and asked: "The song is not finished yet?"

"It's finished and the words are filled in!"

"Is it finished?" Zhang Guorong's eyes lit up and he immediately became interested: "Mr. Zhang invited me here because he wants to sell me this song?"

At this time, Zhang Guorong was gradually showing a sweeping trend in the Hong Kong music scene, but now there is still a strongest opponent standing in front of him, which is Principal Tan, who is all-powerful in the music scene.

Although Zhang Guorong has never had the idea of ​​dominating the music scene, he is not first in literature and second in martial arts. As a junior, he naturally wants to challenge Principal Tan, a senior who is in the limelight.

Zhang Guorong just joined Xinbaoyi this year and is working hard to release another album.

"Zhang Sheng's "A Better Tomorrow" is very good, and the song "Love in the Past" is also very good. Huang Sheng is indeed one of the four great talents in Hong Kong, and Gu Sheng's music is also very good." Wang Zhong did not answer Zhang Guo. Rong asked, but changed the subject and lifted the sedan chair.

Zhang Guorong looked at Wang Zhong and said, "Sheng Wang, if we have anything to say, why don't we just say it directly?"

Wang Zhong laughed twice and said: "I like Zhang Sheng's songs very much, and I also like Zhang Sheng's movies. Zhang Sheng's voice has a unique charm, especially when singing lyrical songs!"

Zhang Guorong said: "Thank you Mr. Wang for your compliment. I'm honored!"

Wang Zhongdao: "I wonder if Mr. Zhang has ever heard of Chinese style?"

"Chinese style?" Zhang Guorong looked at Wang Zhong doubtfully.

Wang Zhong took out a tape recorder from behind, pushed it in front of Zhang Guorong, and said, "Zhang Sheng might as well listen to it first."

Zhang Guorong doubtfully picked up the earphones on the recorder, inserted them into his ears, and pressed the play button.

But not long after, the expression on Zhang Guorong's face changed. He was a little surprised at first, then his eyes widened, his mouth opened slightly, and he looked at Wang Zhong in disbelief.

After listening to the song, Zhang Guorong took off his headphones and looked at Wang Zhong: "Is this song sung by Wang Sheng?"

"What do you think of Zhang Sheng?" Wang Jian nodded and asked with a smile.

The look of surprise on Zhang Guorong's face has not completely dissipated, and his eyes are still on Wang Zhong: "If Mr. Wang wants to sign a contract, I can help Wang Sheng introduce him."

Wang Zhong shook his head, and Zhang Guorong became more and more confused. Before Wang Zhong could speak, he couldn't wait to ask: "Then why did Wang Sheng invite me here?"

Wang Zhongdao: "I wrote the music and lyrics of this song. I think Mr. Zhang's voice is very suitable for this song."

Neither selling songs nor making a debut, Zhang Guorong was a little confused about Wang Zhong’s purpose, so he could only say: “Mr. Wang, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly!”

Wang Zhongdao: "I can also help Zhang Sheng tailor a record with the same style as this song, but I have a small condition. I wonder if Mr. Zhang can agree?"

"The quality is the same as this one?" Zhang Guorong did not ask about the conditions first, but about the song first, which shows that he attaches great importance to Wang Zhong's song.

"Anyway, Bao Zhangsheng is satisfied!" Wang Zhong said confidently.

Talented people have their own arrogance. Zhang Guorong himself is a talented person. Looking at Wang Zhong with a confident face, instead of feeling disgusted at all, he feels that it is natural, especially after listening to the complete song just now.

"Sheng Wang, why don't you tell me the conditions first!" Although he likes Wang Zhong's songs very much, Zhang Guorong is not a reckless person. In the entertainment industry, if he was really reckless and impulsive, he would not be able to survive today if he didn't care. .

Wang Zhong said: "Zhang Sheng, don't worry, I just want to ask Zhang Sheng to help me advertise!"

"Advertising?" Zhang Guorong looked at Wang Zhong in surprise. He had thought about many possibilities, but he had never thought about what Wang Zhong said.

Wang Zhongdao: "Actually, you are not helping me, you are helping my wife's company!"

The look of surprise on Zhang Guorong's face hadn't faded yet. Hearing Wang Zhong's words again, he couldn't help but imagine a story about a talented man and a beautiful woman. He immediately asked out of curiosity: "I wonder what your lady does?"

"Open a clothing factory." Wang Zhong said: "Open a clothing factory in the mainland!"

"I'm from the mainland too!"

"Mainland?" Zhang Guorong was stunned, "Mr. Zhang is from Guangdong Province?"

"I'm from Jiangsu and Zhejiang! My wife's company is also opened in her hometown in Jiangsu and Zhejiang."
