Brilliant Years 1991

Chapter 113: Almost a Miracle
It was a very pleasant meeting.

Not to mention that there had never been any grudges between the two parties before, even if there had been some minor disagreements, at this time, they were naturally all abandoned - everyone worked together to do business and make money, and nothing could enhance friendship more instantly than this.

The foreign trade company owned by Jin Zhiqiang is not small, but even so, if Cao Yukun can import 100,000 tons of beverages through his company a year, he will instantly become his major customer!

The annual transaction volume is more than 30 million RMB. Even if he takes the initiative to reduce the retained profit per ton to 500 RMB, the profit will still be 40 to 50 million RMB in a year!

So, after an afternoon tea, the two of them happily verbally placed the next order.

Thirty thousand tons of beverages!
And that's not all - it has to be said that as a child of a wealthy family, Jin Zhiqiang has his inherent shortcomings in both business and life, but if you really ask him to treat you as a big customer, he will be very generous in doing things - he even specially invited Cao Yukun to have dinner together in the evening.

Eating is a small matter; the main thing is to show off my network of contacts to Cao Yukun, and of course introduce these contacts to him.

His cousin, a big shot whom even Cao Yukun in his previous life had heard of.

Kim Ji-Geon.

To be honest, this person can be said to be the representative figure of the Kim family in this generation.

He moved to Hongkong in 1978, probably with the permission from above. After arriving in Hongkong, he started his own business with the help of his family's friends and relatives in Hongkong. He founded the Aika Electronics Factory and served as the managing director, specializing in the production of integrated circuits and other electronic products. He also founded a company called Huidali Investment Development Co., Ltd., which specializes in venture capital in the development of electronic technology in America.

In short, you will make a fortune as soon as you get started.

In early 1987, he became the managing director of CITIC (Hongkong) Group Co., Ltd. and presided over the work of CITIC (Hongkong) Group. At the beginning of his tenure, he planned to acquire 12.5% ​​of Cathay Pacific Airways, and then acquired 46% of Dragonair Airways, and invited Swire and Cathay Pacific to participate in the shares. Two months later, Dragonair turned losses into profits under his leadership.

Just two years ago, in 1990, he raised HK$100 billion to acquire 20% of Hong Kong Telecom. In the same year, he also acquired Taifook and renamed it CITIC Pacific, completing a backdoor listing. Later, he successively injected projects such as Dragonair, Cathay Pacific, Hong Kong Telecom, and Eastern Crossing into CITIC Pacific.

During this period, there was also a famous business war such as the large-scale acquisition of Hengchang Enterprise.

By now, he was already a famous young tycoon in the Hongkong business community. Yes, he was already 50 years old, but you have to know that the current bigwigs in the Hongkong business community generally achieved their real wealth leap in the 60s and s, and were generally over years old. In comparison, he was quite young. To be honest, the second generation of the wealthy families were not qualified to compete with him.

And the fact is... in terms of capital, wealth, and power alone, there is a gap between him and the older generation of wealthy people in Hongkong, but in the Hongkong business community at this time, he is basically regarded as one of the top people.

What is the reason?

He is about to return - he is a representative of northern businessmen and is even considered a red-top businessman!
Since he came to Hongkong, basically everyone is willing to help him as long as there is no direct conflict of interest. All the difficulties he encounters can basically be solved. He wants to complete the acquisition, even if the acquired party fights to the death, even if the other party has been doing business in Hongkong for many years and has strong connections in other things, but once they meet him, everyone will help him and no one will help the other party.

Of course, it is easier to succeed than ordinary people.

Of course, even though everyone generally believes that his road to success was too smooth due to his unique conditions, it is undeniable that he must be very smart and have a talent for business!
Success still doesn’t come in vain!
"Oh, Sour and Sweet Plum, I heard that your drink is very popular recently! The sales plan for the last lawsuit was great! I have seen so many sales plans over the years, and yours is one of the best. It is clever and directly implants the concept. It is great!"

Unexpectedly, he spoke Mandarin that was much more standard than Jin Zhiqiang's. "It's really rare to be able to bring mainland beverages to Hongkong and sell them. Not only can you sell them, but you can also sell them so well that everyone is rushing to buy them! You look young... How old are you?"

"Wow...nineteen? Not even twenty?"

"Great, great! Qiang, you're a great friend! Let's work together!"

The age gap was too big, and the dinner was close to a family dinner, so he was less socially cautious when talking. He basically treated the two young men, Jin Zhiqiang and Cao Yukun, as the next generation.

Even though Jin Zhiqiang is his cousin.

Show your strength.

In fact, Jin Zhiqiang was indeed very well-behaved in front of him, always calling him "big brother".

Exchanging some business anecdotes of Hongkong and Modou at the dinner table actually opened Cao Yukun's eyes and allowed him to hear a lot of secret gossip that he would never hear outside.

When the banquet was over, he seemed to really like Cao Yukun, a young man who was mostly his junior. "Come to my company more often in the future. Maybe there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future. I am looking forward to cooperating with young people like you! Not only do I know a lot of businessmen in Hongkong, I also have many friends who run businesses in the mainland. If there is a suitable opportunity in the future, I will invite you to dinner and introduce you to them!"

Of course Cao Yukun quickly thanked him.

It’s hard to say anything else, but this guy’s connections in today’s Red Sky can really be considered top-notch!
No matter how big a tycoon you are, you basically have to give face to him!
…………

Not much alcohol was consumed at the dinner with the tycoon and it ended early. By the time Cao Yukun returned home, it was not yet nine o'clock. Not surprisingly, when he opened the door, he found the house was empty again.

Zhou Aimin's work is obviously not over yet.

Well, she has taken on another movie, and she will probably be even busier than she is now.

I sighed, took a shower, opened the refrigerator, took out a watermelon, and ate it myself. I called Fuping, my hometown, twice.

I called Huang Jiaying first, and she came down from upstairs after waiting for a long time. But I couldn't talk for too long, because she could only answer the phone in the guardhouse, and there was an old man guarding the other side. So I just said a few words of missing her and told her that I would be back soon. She seemed very touched, and her words were no longer so crisp, but had some lingering meaning, gentle and soft, "I have been away for quite a while, and it's time to come back. It's good to come back and take a look! You don't know, in the past month or so, you have been almost regarded as a god in our county."

"Ha ha……"

It's understandable - the beverage factory has been built for several years. In the first half year, my brother-in-law was a bit ambitious and invested money in marketing, but then he became unsuccessful. Before I took over, it was in a truly half-dead state. However, starting from the end of May and the beginning of June, this factory was completely activated.

There was no need for any help from the county, I started exporting on my own!
The sour plum juice is exported directly and is in great demand. In the past month, more than 10,000 tons have been produced, with an output value of nearly 30 million yuan. The work done in the factory in the past few years combined may not be as much as this month!

For a small county like Fuping County, isn't this almost a miracle?
After hanging up the phone, Cao Yukun thought about it and called the Song family again.

The Song family's phone was in the living room, and the person who answered the phone sounded like the old mother-in-law, "Oh, A Kun! She's at home, in her room, wait a minute, I'll go call her for you!"

After shouting a few times, the mother-in-law picked up the phone again, "A Kun, are you still in Hongkong? Oh, good, that's great! Your uncle said that A Kun is really good at business. She actually sold the drinks in Hongkong... She is here! A Kun, remember to come back after you are busy. Yu Qian is shy and refuses to say that she misses you very much... Hahaha, okay, okay, mom won't say it, mom won't say it, here you go..."

"Hello? A-kun."

"Well, actually I'm fine. I just wanted to tell you that I missed you."

There was no sound from the other end of the phone for several seconds, and then a low "hmm" was heard, followed by "I know. Oh, Mom, don't listen, go away... I miss you, too. Very much."

In fact, when the college entrance examination was over, Song Yuqian called for the first time on her own initiative, mainly to tell Cao Yukun that she had finished the college entrance examination and estimated her own scores, and felt that she had done quite well.

At that time, Hongkong was just launching various follow-up publicity. Cao Yukun had to watch it personally, so he certainly couldn't rush back. "Well, it's almost done. It's almost on the right track now. I'll go back soon."

"Okay! Then I'll wait for you to come back."

"Ah."

…………

After hanging up the phone, I continued to be bored.

nine thirty.

Zhou Aimin still didn't go home.

After thinking for a while, he picked up his mobile phone again, intending to call Shanghai to say hello to Hu Zihong, but his hand had already fallen on the number keys, and after hesitating for a moment, he dialed another local number.

"Hello? Haha, hello handsome boy!"

"You always laugh! You laugh when you hear my voice."

It would have been better if he hadn't said this. After hearing what Cao Yukun said, Li Qingxia on the other end of the phone laughed even harder, "I'm happy to think of you. You're so interesting... You called me at night. Is there something going on?"

"Actually, I prefer to hear you cry rather than laugh."

"why?"

"It is said that girls like boys who can make them laugh, but they will eventually fall in love with boys who can make them cry."

The person on the other end of the line burst out laughing again, "You're really annoying! Hahahaha... What's the matter? Tell me!"

"I'm bored, let me ask you what you're doing."

"You're still bored. I read a report in the newspaper that said your sour plum juice is now the second best-selling product in Hong Kong, second only to Coca-Cola. You're making a lot of money, and you're still bored?"

"Ah... boring is boring, what does it have to do with money?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while. I didn't know what her mood was. Anyway, she said, "Okay, okay, I'll chat with you. Where are we going?"

"I want to go to your house."
