1977: The beginning of the blind date with the daughter of the king

Chapter 523: The woman used as a target!

The plane landed slowly at Los Angeles International Airport.

Then the warehouse door opened, and Guan Zhilin took Li Changhe's arm and walked down the gangway.

"I feel like the temperature here is about the same as Hong Kong Island!"

After getting off the plane, Rosamund Kwan said curiously.

"The daytime temperature here is about the same as Hong Kong Island, but it's a little colder at night."

Los Angeles has a Mediterranean climate, while Hong Kong Island has a subtropical monsoon climate, which are not consistent.

However, in winter, the temperature difference between the two places is actually not that big, around 20 degrees during the day, but the temperature in Los Angeles drops significantly at night.

"Boss!"

At this time, Anna had been waiting with her people under the plane. When she saw Li Changhe coming down, she immediately came up to greet him and glanced at Guan Zhilin curiously.

This was the first time she saw such an intimate woman around her boss.

It's a pity that his figure is far inferior to hers.

Subconsciously, Anna straightened her back involuntarily, making the front more upright.

"Let's go back to the villa first."

Li Changhe didn't pay attention to these. To him, a secretary was just a secretary. Once the relationship between secretaries crossed the line, it would be a dangerous signal for Li Changhe because they often had too much information.

So whether it was Anna or Catherine, Li Changhe had no private contact with them outside of work.

Otherwise, this big white girl would have been taken down by him long ago.

Soon, the convoy returned all the way back to Beverly Hills, and when Rosamund Kwan saw the mansion in front of her, she couldn't help but show surprise in her eyes.

She has also seen many luxury homes in Hong Kong Island, such as Li Changhe’s one in Deep Water Bay, which is considered top-notch in Hong Kong Island.

It’s just that the house was built too long ago, and Li Changhe simply redecorated it before moving in. In terms of fashion sense, it can’t compare with the one in Beverly Hills.

This villa in Beverly Hills was just built a few years ago. The overall design style and concept are quite advanced and fashionable, and it has a large area, so it can really be called a manor.

This is also a feature why luxury homes in the United States are better than those in Hong Kong. The United States has a vast land area and a sparse population, so the area provided is often sufficient.

"My dear, is this the villa you said you wanted me to supervise?"

Guan Zhilin looked at the mansion in front of her in amazement and asked Li Changhe curiously.

Li Changhe smiled and shook his head: "No, this is just a temporary residence. The land I bought is still on the top of the mountain. I'll take you there later. They need to re-plan the construction there. Now I just came up with the design drawings first."

"Don't worry, you have plenty of time later."

"By the way, Anna, call Leila Chen over."

Li Changhe then gave Anna another instruction.

Anna nodded respectfully: "Okay, boss!"

After Anna left, Guan Zhilin curled her lips at Li Changhe.

"Your secretary looks at me in a weird way. She must have something on you."

Guan Zhilin said with a smile at this time. She was also a little afraid of Li Changhe, the beautiful female secretary.

The main thing is that even from a woman's perspective, Anna is very beautiful.

The most important thing is that the other party seems to be very capable, unlike her, who is just a vase.

"Anna is just a secretary, just like Catherine. You don't have to be wary of her. Your division of labor is different."

Li Changhe gently pinched Guan Zhilin's chubby little face and spoke gently.

"I know, I believe you!"

Rosamund Kwan said with a sweet smile.

Although Li Changhe had clearly told her that he would not marry her, he also did not spend his time drinking and partying outside.

As far as we know about Guan Zhilin now, she is still Li Changhe's favorite woman in Hong Kong Island.

This actually made her very happy.

Otherwise, for a man like Li Changhe, countless wealthy ladies in Hong Kong would throw themselves at him.

The two of them settled their ceremony in the villa, and not long after, Chen Lei came in a hurry.

"Boss, you're looking for me!"

Seeing Chen Lei's hurried look, Li Changhe smiled and nodded: "Yes."

"This is Miss Guan. She came with me from Hong Kong Island."

"She is not very familiar with the United States. During this period of time, you can be Miss Guan's assistant and accompany her to visit her relatives."

"I'll let William and the others follow you."

Li Changhe called Chen Lei because he wanted her to be Guan Zhilin's assistant and tour guide. After all, she was familiar with the United States.

"Okay, then I'll go back and arrange the work on hand, and then come over!"

Chen Lei had no objection. After all, this was the first time the big boss assigned her a job.

She is very grateful to Li Changhe, who has directly improved her living conditions. Now she has a career and a life in Los Angeles without any worries.

This was all brought to her by Li Changhe. She even heard privately that Hua Qing's forces in San Francisco took the initiative to host a toast to their boss and apologized for their mistakes.

As for the gang leader who had been eyeing her, it's probably been a month since he was born!

"Don't worry, I'll ask Anna to arrange two cars for you. You just need to come with the cars starting tomorrow."

"You can go back today and arrange your work."

"By the way, how are your preparations going?"

At this time, Li Changhe took the opportunity to ask Chen Lei.

"Currently, the personnel of various departments have been in place, but the work has not yet been fully carried out."

"We are considering whether to contact some travel agencies and immigration agencies."

As soon as work was mentioned, Chen Lei immediately reported the recent progress to Li Changhe.

"Don't worry. In addition to the United States, you can also recruit someone who understands the legal system in Canada and start along the west coast to expand to several Chinese communities here."

"As for the immigration agency, you can try to find one with a good reputation, but the best way is to start one ourselves."

"Most of the immigration agencies here are connected to local forces. After all, to them, immigrants are lambs to be slaughtered."

"You go back and make arrangements first. Get the West Coast ready. Then I will arrange to register a company in Hong Kong Island and connect with you."

After listening to the report, Li Changhe gave instructions to Chen Lei.

As the old saying goes, even if you are innocent, you should be killed.

Since ancient times, those who do business as pawnbrokers not only make money from both sides, but more importantly, they often do many illegal activities.

Especially those who come from overseas, there are many who are robbed, defrauded, and sold as fallen women.

Li Changhe had seen some cases in his previous life where even highly educated people in the country were tricked by their familiar neighbors and taken overseas, and ended up falling into prostitution.

Therefore, Li Changhe estimated that Chen Lei's idea of ​​seeking cooperation with an immigration agency would not work.

The best way is to start your own immigration company.

But he is not in a hurry now. The main purpose of establishing this is for his compatriots in China.

Of course, in another two years, we can also practice with the group of people leaving Hong Kong Island.

"Okay, boss, I'll go back first." After Chen Lei left, Guan Zhilin came to Li Changhe.

"Honey, you can't go with me?"

Judging from Li Changhe's arrangements, it was obvious that he wanted to let Guan Zhilin act freely. Guan Zhilin immediately said coquettishly.

"I have a lot of things to do here, just let Chen Lei and the bodyguard accompany you."

"You can go hang out around Los Angeles first, then visit your mom and brother."

"Or you can find out about their situation first. Chen Lei is a lawyer and is very familiar with American laws. As long as you need it, she can help you solve it."

"OK then!"

Seeing Li Changhe's firmness, Guan Zhilin did not force him. She knew very well that Li Changhe's decision to sit down could not be changed.

"You go and take a look around first and get familiar with the environment of the villa. I'll rest here for a while and wait for someone."

Li Changhe spoke gently to Guan Zhilin again.

After Guan Zhilin left, Li Changhe shook his head.

He brought Guan Zhilin with him this time, on the one hand to take her to visit relatives, and on the other hand to show this woman off.

After all, for Li Changhe, it is impossible for him to not touch women all the time while he is in the United States. That would be too abnormal.

But he never thought of becoming a stud, so the best way was to pull out the opposite sex he had and show it off.

Of course, this also has its disadvantages. As Li Changhe's woman, Guan Zhilin might be targeted by people who have ill intentions towards Li Changhe.

This situation may not be serious, but it cannot be said that it does not exist. After all, Li Changhe himself cannot guarantee whether there are people plotting against him in private.

So on the surface, Xiaoguan has become a gunman.

Unfortunately, there is no way. Li Changhe needs such a woman by his side, and at present, only Guan Zhilin is suitable.

All he can do is try his best to ensure the other person's safety.

In the evening, a Cadillac drove into the manor, followed by Wells and a few others.

"Mr. Wei?"

Guan Zhilin was a little surprised to see Wei Er Si. Speaking of Mr. Wei, she hadn't seen him for a long time.

She was also curious as to why Mr. Wei no longer appeared in Hong Kong Island. It turned out that he was in the United States.

"Hmm? Jiahui?"

"You've come to the United States too?"

Wells was a little surprised to see Rosamund Kwan, but not too surprised.

This girl must have met Vic's aesthetic standards, so it was not surprising that she was taken into the room.

"Yes, I came to the United States to visit my mother."

Guan Zhilin said to Wei Er Si with a smile.

Wells nodded: "Well, I'll go in first."

Then he led the team into Li Changhe's study.

In the study, Li Changhe was reading a newspaper. Hearing a knock on the door, he shouted, "Come in!"

Then Wells came in with his men.

"Vic, you are so laid back."

After entering the door, Weiersi joked to Li Changhe.

Li Changhe put down the newspaper, looked at Wei Ersi and said with a smile: "I am just taking a break from my busy schedule."

"Tea or coffee, just tell Anna."

"How is the market in the United States recently?"

Li Changhe asked Wei Er Si curiously.

"Yes, let me show you the performance report."

Wells proudly took the performance report from the secretary and handed it to Li Changhe.

After Li Changhe took it, he looked at it carefully.

"Eighty million dollars, so much?"

What Li Changhe was holding in his hand was not the report of travel bags, but the report of clothing revenue.

This is also the market he cares most about.

Suitcases are only a temporary product, but clothing is the real big part of the company's development.

"This is still the result of our current insufficient production, Vic. I think we must increase production. I want to transfer part of the clothing market share in Europe to the United States."

"From the market in the past six months, the consumption capacity in the United States is more than 1.5 times that of Europe."

Wells said with a smile.

Li Changhe asked in confusion: "Why is there such a big difference?"

In terms of income, the difference between the two sides is actually not that big, even in an economic recession. At the level of fast-moving consumer goods, there is not much difference in pricing between Europe and the United States.

It was hard for Li Changhe to imagine that the consumption capacity of the two sides would differ by more than 1.5 times.

“It’s a matter of concept!”

"In Europe, although fashion masters are attractive, they are not attractive enough for them because there are too many of them."

"Our essence is still low prices and cost-effectiveness, which makes us competitive to a certain extent, but not enough, after all, many local clothing companies are actually reducing prices now."

"But it's different in the United States. I asked someone to do a market survey and found that they have been experiencing a craze for high-end consumer goods in recent years, especially among the high-income class, who pay more attention to brand consumption."

"This so-called yuppie consumer wave is a new term created in contrast to hippies, and corresponds to the emerging middle-class young people."

“These people are not our customer base!”

Li Changhe said with a frown.

These people focus on brands and high consumption. In fact, there is also a group of them in China in later generations, namely the elite class in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. They cannot afford the top luxury products, but they look down on the lowest-end brands.

This has led to the emergence of a new class, the so-called light luxury concept.

It is not as luxurious as top luxury brands, but its prices are also beyond the reach of ordinary people. These products are specially designed for people in this income group.

Wei Er Si heard Li Changhe's question and nodded: "Listen to me first."

“Our brand definition is naturally not these people, but the consumption concept driven by these people is downward.”

"And further down the market, our clothing, which is designed by a team of European fashion masters and is inexpensive, has become a premium product in this market."

"Compared with competitors with the same price but without brand publicity, we have brand appeal."

"Therefore, in the eyes of the grassroots people, our current clothing has become, to some extent, a product that can compete with the consumer brands of the yuppie class."

"Now many working-class people are our loyal customers. I have decided to build our popular brand around this."

Weiss said to Li Changhe seriously.

Li Changhe understood it all at once.

Wow, this was actually the idea of ​​Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi back then. Luxury cars suddenly entered the low-end market and caught up with the moment when ordinary people in China became wealthy.

So, that’s how sales increased!
