My Lord, you need to stand up!

Chapter 430 Don't think that fallen peaches are so easy to pick up.
Hong Kong girls know how to handle it.

They didn't talk about personal feelings at all, and waited for Wei Dong to come out and go down the fire escape: "Old Heng and Uncle De certainly don't care about the sales of the clothing factory and the electronics factory. They focus on real estate, but they can bring in a lot of managers along this route. I think you can also improve the internal management and regulations of the jeans factory and the sanitary napkin factory. So you need to lead these people. They still won't dare to offend you."

Wei Dong sensed something amiss in these people's conversation.

Qin Yuye subtly hinted, "There are more than twenty people now, all men. In Hong Kong, they are all womanizers who like to seek out women after work. They used to be stationed in Southeast Asia and the like, so naturally, there will be flies swarming around them when they stay in hotels. I know no one will listen to me if I say this."

Oh right, since Hong Kong's economy, culture, and business atmosphere are similar to those of mainland China twenty or thirty years from now, these people's hedonistic and extravagant temperaments are also similar to the trends of twenty or thirty years from now.

Nightclubs and bathhouses are completely deserted, but there are always people who crave vanity and benefits and try to curry favor with these Hong Kong personnel.

Nodding to tell the Hong Kong girls not to appear at the same time as him, he let Wei Dong go down and casually visit them one by one. Sure enough, they were all slicked-back hair, dressed in shirts and ties, exuding a sense of superiority that was ahead of their time.

I can't help but recall the online legends from the 1990s that even Hong Kong truck drivers could go north to the mainland to keep mistresses.

It's more like seeing those reckless tour groups that constantly organize themselves for increasingly difficult trips forty years from now.

He picked out a few he was relatively familiar with, put his arm around their shoulders, and whispered a reminder: "The mainland has been cracking down hard these past two years, with severe, strict, and swift punishments. I know someone who ran a private dance hall and slept there. He was arrested and shot. In the mainland, this is called having illicit sexual relations. If you get caught, it's a serious crime. If you can't stay here, go back immediately. If you get arrested by the police, the best I can do is save my life."

He actually had absolutely no interest in getting involved in such matters.

But before capturing prisoners on the battlefield, don't you first shout "Surrender and you will not be killed"? You just need to fulfill your obligation to warn them.

This delay allowed Wu Shengyun to quietly wait in the elevator after hearing the news.

He also led Wei Dong down to the third and fourth floors: "This office building model has benefited everyone a lot. Now the concern is whether the upper floors will be built with similar offices for rent or for sale. Many trading companies are interested in purchasing them."

It's much more comfortable dealing with men, even though Wu Shengyun has a handsome appearance with red lips and white teeth.

Wei Dong finally snapped out of his daze: "What's your opinion?"

The advantage of being the leader is that you can learn from the strengths of others.

Wu Shengyun was indeed using his usual asset value tricks: "I prefer to rent. We will develop Liujin Building into the most advanced and complete commercial office building in the entire Jiangzhou, the entire eastern Sichuan region, and even the entire southwest. This real estate will continue to increase in value if we hold it in our hands. If we break it up and sell it, it won't have such great power."

Wei Dong was deeply satisfied: "This is not a real estate project, but our base. You have made the podium building so shocking, which has many benefits, but the bigger the tree, the more the wind will blow, which means that everyone is watching us. We cannot leave any loopholes for others to find fault with."

As she spoke, she pointed to the hotel above the Queen's Restaurant across the street, which could be seen from the window: "Originally, I wanted to set aside at least part of the upper floors for a hotel, but I suddenly realized that hotels are the easiest places to harbor filth and corruption. Putting them together with our office area would be a waste. There are already Hong Kong-funded hotels in the Economic Development Zone, which is enough. They are also going to invest hundreds of millions in hotels in the city center, so we might as well use the entire building as office space to avoid making it a mess."

Wu Shengyun was also quick-witted and astute: "The other side doesn't look quite right?"

Wei Dong smiled and said, "We have to make an example of someone."

Wei Dong took Wu Shengyun to visit various trading companies, from powerful department store consortia to obvious shell companies. He made Wei Dong greet each one politely and emphasize that with the current tight credit and overheated economy, it was best to do some real business and not to engage in speculative trading, which could easily lead to nothing.

In the 1980s and 90s, as long as one did not get caught up in the hype of everyone wanting to do business and instead gambled away everything, focusing instead on steady business operations, most people could accumulate a decent amount of assets.

If a foundation can be established in manufacturing, it is more likely to achieve financial freedom for two or three generations.

Wei Dong was speaking from the bottom of his heart. These days, those who dare to venture into business are all shrewd people, and you can tell from his candid tone.

Whether it's overwhelming gratitude and admiration, or inward resentment that Wei Dong has taken hypocrisy to the extreme, is a matter of opinion.

Overall, the atmosphere was great.

It was almost lunchtime when she left with Wu Shengyun: "Sister Dong is going abroad to study, and my sister-in-law will take over her management of finance and logistics. You should get the management of this building up first, and then we'll see how to proceed after the national marketing conference."

They have been gradually delegating authority to Wu Shengyun.

The man showed no sign of joy, simply bowing his head obediently and saying, "Shengyun understands."

Rang Weidong patted him on the shoulder: "When you have time, help me connect the business operations here with those in Shangzhou, and encourage other businesses in Shangzhou to start operations in Jiangzhou. I have more connections there."

Wu Shengyun nodded emphatically and said yes.

They saw Wei Dong off and let him take the elevator to the underground parking garage by himself.

Leaning back in the sedan chair, Wei Dong relaxed and squinted. He wasn't the kind of domineering and ruthless leader who exuded an aura of dominance. In front of others, he even had to be fully focused to deal with all sorts of cunning and shrewd business people. He also had to be on high alert when facing the talented and extraordinary people around him.

That's why home has such special significance.

The elevator operator held his breath, unsure whether he was afraid his boss would mistreat him or hoping for it: "Boss, we've arrived at the parking garage."

Wei Dong walked out with a "hmm," only to realize that he hadn't driven here himself at all.

No one was picking him up, so he parked his car at the factory. Just as he was about to drive home through the underground parking lot, a light blue Defender beeped from a short distance away. Qin Yuye rolled his car over and said, "I'm puzzled. No guy dislikes this car, how come you can resist taking a look?"

Wei Dong thought to himself, "I know you're the number one beauty in Hong Kong films, but I can't help but feel a little bit of her: 'If this car weren't so discreet, I would have suggested you not drive it. There aren't that many cars in the whole city... By the way, if you go back to Hong Kong recently, take my sister-in-law with you. Let her experience more of the modern corporate management model. She's very eager to learn.'"

Qin Yuye had already climbed into the passenger seat: "I'm also very eager to learn. I want to fully grasp the Colorful Denim brand and work with you to make it a success in both the domestic and foreign trade sectors. Let's go, I'm going back to the factory too."

Indeed, the Land Rover Defender is positioned similarly to the Jeep 212 in Europe and America—rough, rugged, and simple.

But thanks to the Land Rover brand, it has gained the appeal of automotive culture.

Wei Dong had indeed come to terms with it long ago.

It's estimated that neither the Dong sisters nor Shen Laosan knew about this kind of attraction to men.

Climbing onto this three-door off-road vehicle, I was immediately eager to try it out: "I don't think the brand of the jeans is that important. Uncle De hasn't mentioned any profit sharing from the sales in mainland China or the foreign trade, right? You currently own 60%? This transfer case is exactly the same as Jeep's, only the handbrake is different."

The Hong Kong girl skillfully helped the man set up the large toy's gear: "There's a slight difference. These old guys are all cunning. They'll watch us do it first. If we really bet big and make tens of millions a year, they'll change their minds. If we really can't get it back, we might as well create our own new brand?"

Wei Dong admired her ambition and was even more impressed by the overall tuning of the car. It looked simple, similar to the 212, but once you drove it, you realized that the overall compactness gave you confidence: "If I were to drive this car to the high-altitude border area, it would be really exciting."

Qin Yuye curled up lazily in the passenger seat: "Then let's go. We haven't had a vacation yet this year. What do you think? Is it necessary for us to create our own new brand?"

Let Wei Dong immerse himself in the driving experience: "Okay, we'll be prepared for both possibilities. The Binbin brand mainly does foreign trade. In mainland China, we use the X and Hilti brands, right? We can make a new model and try it out in Japan and North America. Distributors like Tanaka shouldn't have any objections."

Qin Yuye was satisfied: "That's why I prefer to come to Jiangzhou. Here, I can change and develop according to my own ideas. In Hong Kong, if I wanted to do the same, the old guys could quietly block the market."

This is exactly the kind of unregulated land grabbing that Chi Shih-ming described.

Wei Dong nodded in deep agreement: "I support you in setting up the brand center and design center in Jiangzhou. Sales will definitely help you sell your products."

Qin Yuye gave a happy "Yay!"

She didn't need to resort to any seductive tactics; just this relaxed interaction with her work colleagues was enough to completely dispel the fatigue she felt in the elevator car.

No wonder they say that working together as a team of men and women makes the work easier.

However, it was only after Weidong returned to the factory that he truly devoted himself wholeheartedly to his work.

The mechanical and electrical engineering professionals and the experts and technicians from the machinery factory who had gone to Japan for research are now trying to assemble a fully automated sanitary napkin production line on the first floor of the new fourth-level factory building, completely simulating the equipment in Beijing. If they succeed, it will mean that they are at the forefront of the country in terms of production line automation.

These days, few in the industry have the opportunity to disassemble and study expensive equipment, or even visit factories in Japan to experience more production lines and exchange ideas on-site.

Only then can one truly understand the ins and outs of the entire design, beyond simply copying it without understanding why.

So they also involved Wei Dong in designing production lines for jeans, circuit boards, keyboards, and mice.

Even if it's not fully automated, at least we can make some planning and adjustments based on the ideas of advanced production lines, which can improve production capacity and efficiency.

Of course, with the delivery of the two dormitory buildings at the zoo, more than 10 million yuan will be freed up and recovered, which means that the construction of the fifth-level factory building can continue.

Furthermore, the construction of the high-rise buildings within the factory area was accelerated.

Throwing himself into his work did indeed help Wei Dong divert his thoughts from the changes in his family.

After being busy until dinner, I ate at the cafeteria with Lao Geng and the others, and then played basketball for almost two hours straight.

I was just about to take a quick shower in the office restroom and go to sleep.

But how could Shen Cuiyue possibly let him be lonely?

Then I saw this guy smirking as he took care of the baby with Dong Xueqing, and then he told Wei Dong some unbelievable gossip!

Chi Shih-ming actually managed to trick Uncle De's daughter into coming to him!

In the afternoon, we visited the White Building together. Apparently, we went to the Military Intelligence Bureau's small building on the mountain to enjoy the moon and have some delicious food.

Anyway, Qin Yuye had already gone to meet his mortal enemy.

Uncle De originally bought Colorful Cowboys and left it to his daughter to manage, which resulted in a mess. Now, does he dare to come and pick up fallen peaches?
