Brilliant Years 1991

Chapter 212 About the New Bentley

When contact was resumed again, Sun Yansheng's attitude changed a lot.

They made an appointment to have tea and exchanged a few simple greetings, but Cao Yukun already felt it.

Perhaps it was because he had been running around to solicit investment for some time without success, or perhaps it was because, as he said, Cao Yukun was able to transport the obviously unsalable rice cookers to the mainland and sell them at a high price, which made him feel "shocked". In short, his attitude seemed much more enthusiastic than before.

If he can sell something like a rice cooker at a high price of 688 yuan per unit in the mainland, and sell units in Shanghai alone, causing a rush for them, then it is conceivable that he will be able to sell VCDs very well in the future!

This is a question of personal ability!

So he sincerely expressed that he had made up his mind and decided to cooperate with Cao Yukun.

The conditions were obvious and had been given before, and Cao Yukun had no intention of changing them - he had basically continued this style of doing things since he started his business, setting a psychological price from the very beginning, and it would never change. This was the price from the first contact, regardless of whether you came back or not.

This is how he did it when he took over the original Aijia Electric Appliances from HSBC.

Sun Yansheng had apparently already visited the mainland for investigation, so he set a minimum financing limit of 1500 million US dollars for the VCD manufacturing business - he has currently confirmed that he can only get million, of which he will invest million himself, and three other investment institutions will invest a total of million.

There are others, but they are all strategic-level investments - if they want to make an investment, the conditions are similar to those of Cao Yukun, and they also require a certain degree of control.

After all, everyone is holding on to money very tightly. I can't rashly give you hundreds of millions of dollars just because you say you have technology and patents - the market for competing video recorders is mature, your technology and products are very risky, and the domestic market and policy environment are so unstable!
If he chooses Cao Yukun, then of course, Cao Yukun also wants this actual control.

Correspondingly, Cao Yukun has to pay a large sum of money.

At least twelve million meters of swords!

This is easy to handle. Qinyuanchun Investment Holding Company, which is currently positioned as the flagship by Cao Yukun, controls 74.6% ownership of Yiren Kangyin (Hong Kong), Qinyuan Real Estate (Hong Kong), and Qinyuan Real Estate (Shanghai). It also holds approximately 5000% of the shares of Joyoung Electric Appliances. Not only does it have a large number of high-quality assets that can be used as collateral, but the cash in the account of Yiren Kangyin Company alone is as high as million Hong Kong dollars.

What's more, Cao Yukun has already established a preliminary foundation in Hongkong. Not only does he have a good relationship with HSBC and Wing Lung Bank, but the key is that he has his good brother Jin Zhijian stabbing him in the back. He has also made friends with wealthy families like the Guo family and the Xu family. If he really needs money, it's hard to say how much, but tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars may be enough for a meal or even a phone call - in fact, he doesn't need it.

It takes at least several rounds of discussions before a collaboration is reached.

Once the contract is signed, there will be at least a month and a half for payment.

To be honest, it might take more than a month to complete all the processes. By that time, it would be normal for Yiren Kangyin to have tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars in its account.

And in fact...

Although Cao Yukun set up a real estate company in Shanghai and asked Hu Zihong to buy houses, including the subsequent decoration and even the decoration in his hometown, etc., all this cost money, but the 5000 million RMB he left in the bank in Shanghai was still a long way from being spent!

Not to mention, in fact, for the sales of more than 150 and nearly 688 rice cookers, his underwriting price in Hongkong was 88 Hong Kong dollars per unit, while the sales price in Shanghai was as high as RMB per unit. Apart from the counter fee of RMB per unit paid to the First Department Store, a large amount of profit was actually withheld by the shell sales company opened by Cao Yukun himself - nearly rice cookers meant that he withheld more than million!

1200 million US dollars, according to the market price, is just over 8600 million Hong Kong dollars.

Simply put, Cao Yukun doesn't need the money at all.

The problem now is that Cao Yukun invested with his personal ability. How much of his personal ability should be valued and included in the original shares? And what kind of valuation should be given to Sun Yansheng's personal decoding technology and the technology of the VCD prototype that Jiang Wanhai is developing!
There is a tug of war here.

In short, talk. If you can’t reach an agreement in one go, talk a few more times.

As long as both parties have an urgent desire to cooperate, after a few rounds of negotiation, they can gradually work out a transaction price that both parties can accept.

So... overall enjoyable!
…………

When Song Yuhua walked out of the passage, she saw the person holding the sign almost at first sight.

Because his sign was so special - it was written in bright red, with "Meet the second most beautiful woman in Fuping County!" The blood-red font and the key word "second" really caught people's attention.

She couldn't help but pursed her lips and almost laughed out loud.

As she waved at him and walked over, she couldn't help but wonder in her mind - who is the first?

Yuqian?
Maybe!
Besides, Yu Qian is his wife, so it is normal for him to say that Yu Qian is more beautiful.

But based on Song Yuhua's understanding of him, this probably wouldn't be the correct answer, definitely not. He would definitely not be so serious and follow the rules when speaking and doing things.

Who could that be?

Well, maybe it’s that Xie Xiaoyu!

I have never seen her, but my eldest brother said that among Cao Yukun's three wives, Xie Xiaoyu should be the most beautiful - he usually dotes on Yuqian so much, but he actually admitted that Xie Xiaoyu is more beautiful than Yuqian, which shows that it is true.

It is said that she is a stunning beauty.

But she seems silly and is said to be an extremely simple girl.

"Wait a long time?"

"Seven minutes and zero... okay, thirty seconds!"

Song Yuhua pursed her lips and smiled.

At this time, his big driver who was originally in Shanghai came over and took the suitcase. Another person was about to take the big sign in his hand, but he didn't let go. He raised his hand and knocked on the sign, turned his head and winked at him - Song Yuhua smiled again, because of his indescribable cuteness.

Ask quickly, he seemed to be saying.

He knew that he must be curious about the "second one", and he seemed to fully understand his antics.

Well, “Who’s number one?”

He finally laughed out loud, tossed the sign to his second entourage, then smiled, raised his thumb, and pointed it at himself, "Me!"

Song Yuhua rarely couldn't help laughing.

It is true.

As for beauty, to be honest, it is not exclusive to pretty girls. If she were to be included in the selection and be named the most beautiful woman in Fuping County, she would be well-deserved of the title.

Be it herself or his three wives, they are indeed inferior to his looks.

Exit the airport and get in the car.

The car he was driving here was also a Mercedes-Benz.

He even took the initiative to introduce himself to his driver at Hongkong.

After chatting all the way, they soon arrived at the hotel. His big driver from Shanghai also followed him upstairs, but after putting down the suitcase at the door of the room, he turned around and walked away.

Song Yuhua walked into the room with a little trepidation in her heart and invited Cao Yukun to come in as well.

To be honest, I was nervous.

I was also nervous before going to Shanghai, but he insisted on ordering me to go, so I had no choice but to listen to him. However, Shanghai was still a little better. First, it was very close to home, and second, it was inland, so I felt like I was not under his complete control. But Hong Kong was different.

Hongkong is no longer in the mainland. You need to take a plane to come to Hongkong.

I am completely unfamiliar with Hongkong and may not even understand the language.

And this place is almost completely his territory.

Now that he's here, almost everything is at his disposal.

And sure enough, not surprisingly, he helped her drag the suitcase in, threw it next to the closet, and just walked around the room casually. Soon he came back to her side, raised his hand, touched her face, and said in an intimate, concerned, gentle, and somewhat domineering tone, "You've lost some weight."

Song Yuhua didn't dare to move, not even to look up at him.

Well-behaved, docile and timid.

Just like a little white rabbit being held under the claws of a tiger.

She just let his large palms gently rub and knead her cheeks back and forth.

I couldn't even utter a word.

Come here.

Then she fell into his trap obediently.

But fortunately, he soon let go of my hand and said, "You can sort your things later! I'll take you to eat something first, and then show you the Hong Kong Skyline, the Star Ferry, the HSBC Building, the Bank of China Building, so that you can at least get to know the basic landmarks. I won't be free to play with you tomorrow, so I'll take you to the company."

At this point, Song Yuhua looked up, and he smiled, a doting smile, and a doting tone, "Be prepared, I'm not asking you to come to Hongkong for a vacation. Next, you will go to the factory, and if necessary, I hope you stay in the factory for a week, or even longer."

Song Yuhua was slightly surprised, but quickly nodded and said excitedly, "Okay!"

I might be shy, taboo, afraid, or even resist other things, but when I learn skills from him and follow his baton to get in touch with the things he wants me to get in touch with and learn, I am really 100% interested!
So, they ate, drank, and had fun. The next morning, Cao Yukun really called her room early in the morning, urging her to eat, and then came to pick her up and took her directly to Joyoung Electric Appliances.

Throw a set of worker's uniforms to her, and after she changes, take her directly to the workshop.

Lead the way and explain in person.

Every production link, the requirements of each process, and even the origin and function of each accessory - my God, he knows the production line of his factory so well.

I had thought that a genius like him would have all sorts of wild ideas when doing things, and would do things that no one had thought of or achieved, just like what he had done with the beverage factory from the beginning to the end. But I had never expected that he actually knew so much about the production operations within the factory!
"Zhou Xingbin, come here!"

In one morning, I just barely went through the production process of the rice cooker.

The key is that everything here became too complicated under his explanation - from the speed of the assembly line, to the labor intensity of the workers, to the quality of spare parts, procurement methods, the pros and cons of each supplier, and even to the main direction of the company's future technological research and development. Anyway, he talked about whatever he talked about, and Song Yuhua actually didn't understand many things at once, so he repeated them and explained them in detail.

After eating lunch with him in the company, he called a young man with red eyes over and said, "This is Zhou Xingbin, currently my assistant in the company. From now on, let him be your assistant! In the next week, you will walk around the workshop for me. If there is anything you don't understand or want to ask, just ask him. If there is any information you want to see, find him and ask him to get it for you. Come to my office to see it! In short, your next goal is to fully understand and master the entire process of our rice cooker production... Do you understand?"

Actually...I don’t quite understand.

The main thing is that I can't figure out what he is going to do.

Of course, there are still some vague guesses. I had already thought about it when I was in the Magic City.

Facing his serious but encouraging and expectant eyes, Song Yuhua finally couldn't help but ask, "So... you want to expand production capacity, open a new factory? Invest in the mainland?"

He laughed out loud towards the sky.

Finally, he said, "From now on, this is your job!"

…………

The spring breeze is proud.

After the rice cookers were successfully sold out in Shanghai and then returned to the red market, Cao Yukun once again felt the joy and ease of life - everything he wanted was going smoothly, and the things he had been thinking about suddenly took a turn for the better, and would be completely realized in a foreseeable number of days.

Of course, I am very proud of myself and will gallop forward.

Receiving Song Yuhua, sending her to the factory to study, arranging cars to pick her up and drop her off, occasionally inviting her to dinner and listening to her learning results and insights was just a small episode. Meeting Sun Yansheng several times in a short few days was also just a small matter.

His life soon returned to its normal routine.

Spend some time with your woman, maintain daily interactions with the bosses, go to your company to look at documents, sign documents, hold meetings, etc.

Simple, easy and leisurely.

Until that day, when he once again unexpectedly came across the new Bentley in the president's special elevator.

surprised.

He hadn't seen her for about a month when he was suddenly surprised to find that the girl's temperament had changed a lot - her hair had grown longer, and she seemed more gentle, and the freshness and beauty in her eyes seemed to have lost their immaturity all of a sudden, and she seemed to have matured a lot in an instant!

At that moment, Cao Yukun was stunned!
Almost intuitively, he thought: Could it be that this girl is being seduced by someone?

To be able to bring such a big change to a girl in a short period of time... In his opinion, what else could it be except that this girl is already in love and has even been fucked by someone?
What the hell!

I felt so confused in an instant!

I even hated myself for having restrained myself in the past.

What the hell is restraint? You are lustful as long as you are lustful. Don't think that you are not lustful just because you restrain yourself a little, once or twice, in front of a girl!
But, damn, I missed it!

If I had made a move the last time we met, there’s a high chance that what I would have gotten would have been unopened!
Grass!
The elevator only took a short time to go down a dozen floors, but Cao Yukun's heart was really in ups and downs...

Apart from a quick glance when entering the elevator, the new Bentley didn't even dare to turn its head to look at him on the way down.

Finally, Cao Yukun couldn't help but said, "Hello!"

Belated first words.

Damn, this new Bentley is probably not in its original state!

Mad!
That won't work either, I want one too! I can only hope that she is just in love and hasn't slept with anyone yet...

Grass! Grass! Grass!
She turned her head and looked over. Her features were clear and her eyes were full of affection. She even smiled a little, "Hello, Mr. Cao!"

"Uh...you know me?"

She smiled again, gently raised her hand to lift her hair and tuck it behind her ear, "A lot of girls in this building know you!"

Ah... yes!
I have experienced this, especially during the period when I acquired the original Aijia Electric Appliances. Every time I appeared in this building, no matter who I met, of course, mainly girls, I would always encounter a certain amount of small onlookers.

She looks even better when she smiles - to be honest, she really has the charm of an old lady when she was young!
So pure and beautiful!
No, I want to try it!
Concentrate your mood, be calm, calm, and take it lightly, "Oh, so that's it!... Has anyone ever told you that you are more beautiful when you smile!"

She pursed her lips and smiled, but quickly turned her eyes away, lowered her head and stopped talking.

His face suddenly turned red.

It's obvious that Cao Yukun's words are meant to tease!
The elevator quickly reached the first floor. When the elevator door opened, she turned around and was about to leave, but Cao Yukun suddenly spoke again, "If you don't have a boyfriend... can I treat you to a meal? Let's get to know each other?"

She stopped and turned back, her face flushed and her eyes bright.

When I looked over there, it seemed so clear.

"Okay!" she said.

Cao Yukun instantly breathed a sigh of relief - Damn! No boyfriend!

Of course, she may already have a boyfriend, but after I took the initiative to invite her, she denied it - it doesn't matter, I want this beauty!

Think about it from another perspective - she looks to be in her twenties, and she has probably graduated from college only one or two years ago. This is the age when people first enter society, and it is the stage when people suddenly become mature. It does not necessarily require things like falling in love or having sex.

Life is full of joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, and there are many things that can bring about a huge change in a person's temperament.

Besides, what era is this? This is Hong Kong in the 1990s. Not to mention that she has graduated from college and has been working for a while. Even if she had a few romances in college, what's so strange about that?
At best, you might just lose all your blood!

Just based on her looks and figure...well, I'm set on her!
It can be considered as finding a younger sister or a substitute for the old aunt!

…………

Her name is Lin Qingkui.

Born in 1968, graduated from Hongkong Chinese University, um, no love history.

To be honest, with Cao Yukun's rich experience today, just the short time of waiting for the food was enough for him to find out too many things indirectly - when he heard her say with her own mouth that she had never had a love affair even until now, Cao Yukun really breathed a sigh of relief!

Although he was certainly still surprised at how her temperament had changed so drastically in just a few months, Cao Yukun didn't even ask about this point.

She will tell it herself when the time comes.

So, we ate and chatted.

Ah, this girl is really good - she is quite shy. You can feel that she is not pretending or acting, but it is her natural character. Shy and timid. Even in some topics, Cao Yukun can see a sense of inferiority from her expression and tone!

This is really weird!
In Cao Yukun's opinion, the sentence on the Internet in his previous life did make sense - no one can own a Bentley and have inferiority complex at the same time!
But the new Bentley is actually feeling inferior!
But as they talked, Cao Yukun suddenly understood the reason.

She said that her father had two wives, who gave birth to five sisters. But her mother was a concubine. In 1971, Hong Kong abolished the concubine system. She and her sister followed their mother and were driven out by her father's first wife. Later, her father was not even allowed to give them money to support their lives for quite a while.

She was the third of five sisters in the family and her mother's first child. When she was kicked out of the house, she was only three years old and her younger sister had just been born and was less than one year old.

Anyway... everyone has their own pains in life!

By the time she was in junior high school, her life had gotten better - her mother never fell in love again, let alone remarried, and later the eldest wife in the family was unable to give birth to a boy for her father, so she became weak and began to allow her father to support her and her daughter.

But she herself said that the three of them, mother and daughter, are still living alone. Her mother has been working and doing her best to raise her and her sister. The situation at home has really been basically improved. In fact, it has only been in the last one or two years. As she and her sister graduated from college one after another, her mother's life has gradually become easier.

To be honest, Cao Yukun has the ability to quickly get close to a stranger, especially when it comes to girls. His ability in this regard is ridiculous. But when he really listened face to face to face to such a beautiful and charming girl, starting to talk about her not-so-happy life in the past few years, Cao Yukun couldn't help but feel a little distressed - what a good girl!

As they chatted, he suddenly thought of a possibility. He couldn't help but ask, "Your last name is Lin... I know that the chairman of the board of directors of Wing Lung Bank is also named Lin..."

Unexpectedly, she nodded, "Yes, my father's name is Lin Liangjun."

At this moment, Cao Yukun almost couldn't hold back from swearing - Damn it, it's really Lao Lin, you bastard!
