Rebirth of Hong Kong Island, leading the technology war

Chapter 452: Being intercepted? Sibeisi X is angry
The first thing Hu Jiangshan did was to go to the Hong Kong government department and change the nature of the company.

"Jiangshan Company" was changed to "Jiangshan Group".

Hu Jiangshan had wanted to do this for a long time, but he had too many trivial matters to deal with recently, so he put it aside for the time being.

Jiangshan Group has a wide range of businesses, but only three of them can be announced to the public.

The first item is fishery, and the fishing ground is on General Island.

Originally, Hu Jiangshan used this business as a cover-up, but he didn't expect that he would succeed by accident.

Jiangshan Fisheries has started to make money, and it’s not a small amount.

Because their main products are high-end seafood and top-quality seafood, after the first batch of fish was sold out, their revenue was actually close to that of large seafood farming companies in Hong Kong Island, and their profit margin was much higher than that of their peers.

The second item is extremely outrageous, which is the space launch site project.

Originally, such a cutting-edge technology project should not appear in Hong Kong Island. Even if it did, it would have to be established by the national aerospace department. However, Hu Jiangshan's first move was a ace in the hole. He built a space launch site in just a few months and even put it into commercial operation.

The Tenglong Island Space Launch Center is indeed not just a showpiece. It has now received a rocket launch order from Starry Sky Glory, a commercial aerospace company from the mainland.

The third business is still under preparation, which is the resort project.

The project is still under construction, but will be completed in a few days.

Of course, we can’t announce it to the public so quickly. Even if we do, no one will believe it.

The entire business environment of Hong Kong Island started with real estate. There are countless people who understand engineering, and several wealthy families basically have real estate projects.

Normally, building a resort of a certain size would take several years, even if only the hardware facilities were considered. However, Hu Jiangshan completed the entire project in just a month.

Of course, Hu Jiangshan certainly couldn't tell the truth to the outside world. He just said that the construction had started for a long time and would be completed soon.

As for the very important semiconductor manufacturing business, it must not be announced to the public and must be kept secret, otherwise it will cause big trouble.

In short, Jiangshan Group has now been established.

Hu Jiangshan immediately asked Zhou Yuezhu to arrange to replace the company's logo, and also to change the external promotional materials.

At this time, in Central, Hong Kong Island, Jiangshan Group.

Hu Jiangshan was sitting in the boss's office, drinking coffee and listening to Zhou Yuezhu's report on the company's recent situation.

Zhou Yuezhu is doing better and better in the company now, and she is responsible for most of the company's affairs.

Of course, Zhou Yuezhu's department also added a lot of staff, which made Zhou Yuezhu's temperament more and more like a superior.

Hu Jiangshan was very satisfied with Zhou Yuezhu's changes. By training her, Hu Jiangshan could save himself a lot of trouble.

Moreover, Zhou Yuezhu has another advantage, which is that she is very loyal to Hu Jiangshan and has no ulterior motives. This is a very important point that Hu Jiangshan values ​​about her.

As the saying goes, if loyalty is not absolute, then it is absolutely disloyal.

For someone in Zhou Yuezhu's position, loyalty is the most important quality.

After Zhou Yuezhu finished her report, she saw that Hu Jiangshan had finished his coffee and asked, "Mr. Hu, would you like me to pour you another cup of coffee?"

Hu Jiangshan said, "Give me a glass of juice with ice cubes."

Hu Jiangshan went to Southeast Asia and drank mostly juice and beer, and he actually got used to it.

Besides, the weather is too hot today. Even if the air-conditioning in the office is turned on high, I can still feel the scorching sun. I just want to drink something refreshing.

After a moment, Zhou Yuezhu gently placed the iced juice in front of Hu Jiangshan.

Hu Jiangshan smelled a faint fragrance and started playing poker with Zhou Yuezhu.

More than an hour later, Hu Jiangshan and Zhou Yuezhu started talking about work again, mainly about how to welcome the Middle Eastern bosses to come for research.

Hu Jiangshan said: "There is no need to be too nervous. This is not the first time we have been surveyed. We just need to follow the procedures, be neither humble nor overbearing in the reception, and avoid any trouble."

Zhou Yuezhu nodded: "Okay, Boss, do you need a Middle Eastern translator?"

Hu Jiangshan thought for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be necessary. I have communicated with them and their English is pretty good and sufficient."

Zhou Yuezhu agreed.

After the discussion was over, Zhou Yuezhu was about to go do something else when Hu Jiangshan stopped her.

Hu Jiangshan asked: "By the way, have the recent rumors about me died down?"

Zhou Yuezhu thought for a moment and asked, "Is it about the scandal between you and Chen Yifei?"

Hu Jiangshan nodded.

"Now, it seems to be better than before, but I still hear colleagues mention it sometimes."

Hu Jiangshan sighed and said, "Okay, I understand. Go ahead and get busy."

After Zhou Yuezhu left, Hu Jiangshan picked up his tablet and started reading the news.

Before Hu Jiangshan went abroad to Southeast Asia, rumors about him and Chen Yifei were flying everywhere, and sometimes they were recognized on the street.

Hu Jiangshan is indeed very famous in Hong Kong Island, and almost everyone knows him, but it is an exaggeration to say that everyone knows what he looks like.

In the past, the people who talked about Hu Jiangshan the most were the wealthy, but during this period of time he has completely revealed his face, and even ordinary people can recognize him. Although it is not a big deal, it also interferes with his normal life.

Hu Jiangshan flipped through a few pages. There was indeed still news about Chen Yifei's rumored boyfriend. It was slightly better than before. At least Hu Jiangshan's photos did not appear as many times as before.

Calculating the time, the Chinese New Year will be here in half a month.

Hu Jiangshan didn't expect that he would be so busy before the New Year, having to receive foreign guests and discuss cooperation.

Being a boss is not that easy.

At the same time, in the United Arab Emirates, Dibai City.

If you ask which city in the Middle East is the most famous, it is undoubtedly Dibai.

Although this place is located on the edge of the desert, it is full of tall buildings and presents a prosperous scene.

At this time, there were several guests from Europe and the United States in a cafe, chatting in low voices.

There are quite a lot of foreigners in Dibai, and the ratio with locals is almost one to one. However, these Europeans and Americans are not tourists or foreign workers, but they are here to discuss business.

They are from a very famous commercial aerospace company - SpaceX.

One of them, Stephen, said, "Kelly, what's going on? Why did the Middle Eastern guy suddenly change his mind? Didn't you say this was a done deal?"

Kelly was speechless for a moment and smiled awkwardly: "I said so, but I didn't say they would definitely sign the contract. There is still a slight possibility... that they might change their minds."

Luo Lika, who was sitting next to her, waved her hand and said, "Okay, stop arguing. It's meaningless. Kelly, we just want to know why they changed their minds. You have to give us a reason!"

"The reason is simple: we have competition," Kelly said.

Luo Lika and Stephen looked at each other in disbelief and disbelief.

Stephen shook his head: "Impossible, how could there be a competitor! There must be something wrong." Luo Lika asked: "Whose competitor is it?"

Kelly hesitated for a moment: "It is said to be in China."

"...China?"

Stephen's eyes widened: "China Space Agency!?"

Luo Lika said, "That's not right. Why would the Chinese government do this? Is it just to correct the function of a satellite? What can they gain?"

"It's not China's official aerospace department. It's said to be a private company."

Stephen said, "Private company? That's impossible. Which private company in China has this kind of technology? Kelly, tell me, which company is it? There must be something fishy going on here!"

Kelly spread his hands and said, "I don't know the details either. The Middle Eastern people are very tight-lipped and refuse to reveal anything."

Luo Lika thought for a moment and said, "As far as I know, China does have several commercial aerospace companies, but I haven't heard that they would accept satellite modification orders."

Stephen said: "That's ridiculous. How can they accept it if they don't have the technology? I'm sure this must be a scam!"

Rolika said, "Stephen, let's not jump to conclusions. We came all the way from Europe to here, not to complain, but to investigate."

Stephen shrugged. "You're right. We need to figure out what went wrong. Are those rich Middle Eastern guys crazy?"

"Shh..."

Kelly made a silencing gesture.

"Stephen, calm down. It's not a good idea to offend them here."

Stephen snorted coldly and stopped talking.

Stephen knew Kelly was right.

The Middle Eastern masters are not as simple as they seem. If you don't provoke them, they can do anything. But if you provoke them, they can do anything.

Kelly told Rolika and Stephen what he knew.

Kelly is a member of the Beacon Country Consulate in the Middle East, mainly responsible for business cooperation, that is, helping companies in the Beacon Country establish cooperative relations with the Middle East.

It can also be said that Kelly is the official business affairs officer of the Beacon Country.

Stephen and Lolita are the business representatives of Spacex in Europe.

Especially Luo Lika, her status is not low and she can contact the headquarters directly.

Because the Middle East is relatively close to Europe, business negotiations between SpaceX and Middle Eastern people are generally handed over to the European branch.

Spacex is negotiating business with a company in the Middle East. The other party is a company under the UAE Space Agency, called Mayne Aerospace. It has a semi-official background and can be said to be very wealthy.

As long as the needs of Mayen can be met, any quotation will not be a problem, so Spacex attaches great importance to this cooperation.

Of course, the high rating given to this cooperation by SpaceX does not mean that the attitude shown is very sincere. On the contrary, SpaceX will still maintain a very good attitude.

This is their style when negotiating, they always take a higher position than the other party.

It has to be said that SpaceX is a man of great skill and courage. The company itself is known as the ceiling of commercial aerospace companies and is famous for its powerful technology.

If we go by technology ranking, SpaceX might even be among the top three national aerospace powers on the entire blue planet.

In many people's impressions, winning the championship is not a problem, he is the king of aerospace.

The boss is Athlone Malak, a technological leader and future pioneer, possessing the most dazzling aura in the entire Blue Star technology field.

Malak even declared that in two or three years he would colonize Mars in a huge starship and would not return to the Blue Planet.

Of course, Hu Jiangshan, who had experienced his previous life, knew very well that Malak’s plan to go to Mars was indeed grand, but let alone two or three years later, even if he was given another ten years, he would not be able to go to Mars.

Anyway, before Hu Jiangshan was reborn, Malak was still staying well on Blue Star.

I guess Malak's plan to colonize Mars will never be realized.

However, SpaceX's technical capabilities are indeed very strong, extremely impressive. Those who understand know that they are actually backed by the technology and talent of the Lighthouse Country Space Agency, and they are not short of funds. They are indeed the best cooperation partner besides the national space agency.

However, cooperation with SpaceX is not an easy thing. The other party's asking price will be very high, so high that only wealthy companies and national organizations can afford it. Otherwise, they are not qualified to come to the table to negotiate with SpaceX.

That’s not all. Space X also comes with some more stringent requirements.

As mentioned earlier, various restrictions were imposed on the UAE company, Maine.

For example, during the cooperation stage, UAE technicians were prohibited from observing SpaceX's work, and technical details would not be disclosed.

To put it simply, there is only one thing the UAE has to do, and that is to pay the money.

When the two sides were negotiating, the Middle Eastern people were of course very dissatisfied, but there was nothing they could do as they did not have many options.

Just like other partners of SpaceX, they could only swallow their anger and resentment and sign the contract.

Things were going smoothly and the Middle Eastern boss was about to sign the contract, but just two days ago, Kelly suddenly received a message saying that Mayne Company had proposed to withdraw from the contract signing, and its attitude was very firm, without explaining the reason.

This made SpaceX feel unusual. For them, it was an insult that the customer took the initiative to postpone the signing of the contract.

They actually dared to hesitate. They have absolutely no sincerity at all. There must be something wrong.

So, Space X sent someone over to find Kelly to find out what happened.

However, Spacex also knew that Middle Eastern people had tempers. It didn't matter if they were a little arrogant, but they couldn't go too far. If they were really irritated, no good results would come of it. That's why they sent Lolika over.

Luo Lika is relatively rational and gentle in her approach, and will not exacerbate conflicts.

But Stephen is not so good-tempered. He is simply a powder keg. When he heard that the Middle Eastern people might have found a backup and tried to replace Spethx, he was furious.

At this time, Luo Lika said: "No matter what, we have to find out the intentions of the Mayen Company. What exactly do they want to do? Why did they postpone the signing?"

Kelly sighed: "I can only say I'll try my best. I've tried my best, but they just won't say anything."

Luo Lika smiled slightly: "If you ask directly, of course you can't ask, I have an appointment with someone."

Kelly asked curiously, "Who?"

Just as Luo Lika was about to speak, someone walked into the cafe.

Rolika waved to the man: "Hey, Ella, this way!"

Yes, the person who came in was Ella Wood, the employee of the information consulting company.

Luo Lika happened to be very familiar with Ella, and knew that Ella had cooperated with people from Maine Company, so she asked her to come over.

Why did Mayne postpone the signing?

Ella must know why.
