Chapter 740 Ningyuan 1979
Knowing that Suning was about to leave campus to work for Ningyuan Group, Ah Hong took out the pocket money she had saved over the years and bought Suning a very fitting navy blue suit. Although the suit Ah Hong gave him was far inferior to the top suits in his own space world, it was still worth a lot of money in the real world, so Suning was still very touched at this time.

Suning got up early in the morning and first prepared breakfast for his younger brothers and sisters. Then he changed into this navy blue suit that represents love, and then went to work carrying a black backpack. This outfit is really suitable for an intern who has just entered the society.

When Suning took a taxi to Ningyuan Building, he found that there were many young people like himself here. However, looking at their uneasy expressions and hearing their nervous mumblings, Suning realized that they all came to Ningyuan for job interviews.

Of course, not everyone feels uneasy. After all, there are still many highly educated and confident people who wear well-fitting brand-name suits and look down on everything. They also look at those uneasy "weaklings" with disdain, as if only in this way can they show their extraordinary abilities.

"Classmate, are you also here for an interview at Ningyuan Group?" An applicant who considered himself a "strong man" noticed Su Ning's calmness, then looked at Su Ning with a smile and asked.

"Yes." Suning looked at the "Pu Xin man" in front of him in some surprise, always feeling a weird feeling.

"Oh? Classmate, which school did you graduate from?"

“HKU.”

"HKU? I heard that the talented young man Su Ning from your HKU is also going to join Ningyuan Group. I just don't know if he also needs to take part in the interview like us." "Pu Xinnan" also looked at Su Ning with a puzzled look on his face, and then looked at Su Ning in confusion and asked.

"I don't know! Suning is very low-key on the HKU campus. Only one person in their major has actually seen him."

"Yeah, that's true! But it's a pity. A genius who hasn't studied abroad wouldn't be a genius."

"Huh? Classmate, you're being too absolute."

"Haha, I graduated from the Business School of the University of Pennsylvania, so I have the confidence to say this." At this time, the "Pu Xin Man" thought he was superior and explained with his head held high, but it made everyone around him show a disdainful expression.

Looking at the poor overconfident guy in front of him, Suning's only feeling was probably confusion. He really didn't know where this guy got his confidence from. His tone was as if he was a god descending to earth when he came to Ningyuan Group, so everyone at this moment felt uncomfortable.

Of course, "Pu Xinnan" also noticed the disgusted looks from others, but he had an indifferent expression. Soon the elevator arrived at the first floor, and then "Pu Xinnan" took the lead and walked into the elevator. Only then did he barely ease some of the embarrassment.

Because the human resources department of Ningyuan Group was on the 22nd floor of Ningyuan Building, and when the elevator that the newbies took arrived at the 22nd floor, as soon as the elevator door opened, they saw a middle-aged white woman standing there. When she saw Suning, she smiled and asked, "Suning?"

"Yes! I am Suning." Suning also nodded with a smile, knowing that this person was the human resources director.

"Hello! I am Paisley, the human resources director of Ningyuan. The president is waiting for you in the office." Then the human resources director introduced himself to Suning.

"Hello Paisley, please take care of me in the future."

Then, Suning followed the HR director Paisley to Chen Jinhua's office. At this time, the other newbies who came out of the elevator were all stunned. They didn't expect that the genius Su Ning would take the same elevator with them, and they didn't expect that Suning would ask the HR director to come out to greet them in person. Everyone was surprised and turned to look at the overconfident "Pu Xinman". At this time, the "Pu Xinman"'s face was a complicated mixture of green and red.

After five years of rapid development, the Ningyuan Group now has a variety of talents that have begun to take shape, so the proportion of AI robots is gradually decreasing. Paisley, the human resources director, is precisely the senior talent recruited. As for Suning, its AI robots are slowly converging to the technical department and the review department.

"President, your intern assistant Su Ning is here to report." Paisley looked at President Chen Jinhua with a smile and explained.

"Okay! Paisley, have you completed Suning's employment procedures?" Chen Jinhua simply nodded to Suning, then looked at Paisley in confusion and asked.

"Replying to the President, everything has been processed."

"Okay! Paisley, then get to work!"

"Goodbye, President."

After HR Director Paisley left Chen Jinhua's office, the AI robot Chen Jinhua stood up from his chair and personally brought a cup of coffee to Su Ning. He then said to Su Ning, who was sitting on the sofa, "Master, this is freshly brewed coffee made according to your preferences."

"Thank you."

"Master, after you joined Ningyuan Group, our operations have become much more convenient."

"Well, from now on you should just call me by my name. Calling me master will make others feel weird."

"Yes! Master."

"Let's talk about the company's specific situation."

"Suning, our Ningyuan Group's main businesses are now concentrated in real estate and machinery manufacturing. We also own 51% of the Ningyuan Seaport Terminal Company, which we co-operate with Li Chaoren and others. With rapid development over the past year, we have acquired ports and terminals in many major cities in Europe, America, and Asia. HSBC's Shen Bi also helped us contact the Port of Liverpool in the UK. Ningyuan Group now owns the property at Liverpool's Container Terminal 6."

"Oh? It seems that Shen Bi is quite enthusiastic." Su Ning couldn't help but smile in surprise. You know, Shen Bi and HSBC like to fund British companies.

"Yes! Shen Bi also contacted Walker Shipyard and British Steel Group in the UK, saying that these two British companies are interested in selling."

"Well, then we should take some time to go to the UK for an on-site inspection. However, I'm worried that the British won't lower their stance. I believe the price will be astronomical." "That's right! This is obvious."

"So, don't hold out too much hope for this field trip to the UK."

"Yes!"

"Hehe, now you are the boss, and I am just a little assistant serving you." Seeing that the AI robot Chen Jinhua has always treated him in a programmed way, Suning couldn't help but feel funny at this time.

"Yes!"

Suning has been thinking about how to enter Ningyuan Group openly. You must know that none of the shareholders of Ningyuan Group have any relationship with him, and it is impossible for him to hold shares of Ningyuan Group openly, so he thought of this way of appearing as a professional manager.

Suning's first job after joining his Ningyuan Group was to accompany the AI robot Chen Jinhua to the UK for an inspection. Also accompanying him was HSBC boss Shen Bi. It can be seen that Shen Bi now has to face up to the Ningyuan Group, which has already dominated Hong Kong Island, and the people in the UK are also very interested in the Ningyuan Group.

"Boss Shen, this is my assistant Su Ning." Chen Jinhua pointed at Su Ning and introduced him to Shen Bi who was standing beside him.

"Hello, Suning!" Shen Bi shook hands with Su Ning in surprise, and then said casually, "I've heard that you are a talented young man from Hong Kong Island. Seeing you today, you are indeed extraordinary."

"Mr. Shen, thank you for your kind words! Please take care of me in the future."

"Haha, definitely."

"Boss Shen, do you think our Ningyuan Group has a high chance of successfully acquiring the company this time?" Chen Jinhua immediately asked Shen Bi.

"I don't know! I heard that many international steel and shipbuilding companies are very interested in Walker Shipyard and British Rail Group, so I guess the competition for this acquisition will be very fierce."

"What? Mr. Shen, have Walker and British Railways announced the news?" After hearing Shen Bi's helpless explanation, Chen Jinhua immediately pretended to be surprised and asked.

"Yes! It is said that a bidding will be held at that time. It is natural for them to want to sell it at a good price." Shen Bi explained as a matter of course.

"."

At this time, Suning and Chen Jinhua both knew that this was a trick played by the British, which was nothing more than to raise the selling price of their own company. It was even possible that the companies participating in the auction were just invited bidders, so Suning could not help but lose hope for this inspection.

Soon the plane landed at London International Airport in the UK, and then Suning and Chen Jinhua began to inspect the two acquisition targets. Although they knew that this acquisition would be difficult to achieve, Suning and Chen Jinhua were still very careful and serious. After all, they couldn't make this trip in vain.

In fact, the clever Shen Bi also saw the disappointment of Suning and Chen Jinhua. After all, the price asked by the British this time was not low, and now it seemed too much to organize an auction. But Shen Bi could not say anything at this time. You know, he and HSBC can only be regarded as middlemen.

Ever since helping Ningyuan Group's Harbor Terminal Company contact the terminal at Liverpool Port, Ningyuan Group has reciprocated by opening its group account at HSBC. After all, both parties are still in the stage of mutual benefit, so this time Shen Bi and HSBC are sincerely trying to facilitate the acquisition and have decided to lend money for this acquisition.

Suning and Chen Jinhua did not stay in the UK for long. They separated from Shen Bi and set off from London International Airport to Munich, Germany, because the Munich International Machinery Show was about to be held, and their Ningyuan Machinery Factory got a booth as they wished, and this time their flagship product Ningyuan Industrial Robot was also on display.

In fact, General Motors in the United States began using industrial robots in the 1960s, so industrial robots are not a very novel product. However, they still contain a lot of high-tech technologies, so Suning naturally attaches great importance to this international machinery exhibition.

Although this inspection trip to the UK was not very successful, Ningyuan Group stole the limelight at the Munich Machinery Show. The products exhibited were all high-tech products. After rapid development in recent years, international peers have more or less known about this manufacturing company from Hong Kong. They are all shocked and impressed that Hong Kong is really a magical place. After all, it is not easy for a tiny place to incubate a machinery manufacturing company. They also realized that Suning Group is very powerful.

When Suning and AI robot Chen Jinhua returned to Hong Kong, Suning had to get busy again because Suning wanted Ningyuan Group to officially enter the automobile manufacturing industry. Although Hong Kong is not suitable for the development of automobile manufacturing industry, it can still try those automobile parts factories backed by the mainland.

As we all know, the most important components of fuel vehicles are the engine and gearbox, so Suning plans to open a factory for these three parts in the automobile factory in the New Territories of Hong Kong. In addition, all other auto parts will be outsourced to auto parts factories in the mainland. For this purpose, Ningyuan Group also sent people to the Canton Fair Auto Parts Exhibition to find suppliers. After signing the order contracts with these selected manufacturers, a large number of technical personnel were sent to follow up the parts production process, and it was imperative that the parts produced by the mainland parts factories meet the standards required by Ningyuan Group.

It was not until the busy spring of 1979 that Ningyuan Group's first car, Ningyuan , finally rolled off the assembly line. Looking at the Ningyuan car coming off the production line, everyone was excited and felt gratified for their efforts during this period.

Hong Kong is a free trade port in the world, so Ningyuan Group specially prepared a large-scale new car launch conference for this purpose, officially announcing its entry into the world's automobile manufacturing industry. Ningyuan's president Chen Jinhua personally took the stage to introduce the Ningyuan 1979. Such a novel product launch conference immediately attracted the attention of the media and car companies.

"Suning, why don't you take the lead? After all, you are more famous than me." The AI robot Chen Jinhua is becoming more and more humane. Looking at Suning in front of him, he actually began to push the position away.

"No! I'm just your work assistant. I'm not qualified to be in public and give commentary." Suning shook his head and refused.

"Suning, I feel that new car launches are less meaningful than auto shows."

"After all, our Ningyuan Group is not well-known in the automotive industry. The new car launch is just a gimmick to introduce ourselves. We still have to participate in major international auto shows every year."

"Yes."
