My Lord, you need to stand up!

Chapter 833 Who is the Lord?

Yu Qili's head was clearly buzzing.

Because he witnessed the whole process firsthand.

Leaning against the car door, watching the TV commercials play simultaneously, neither the seasoned host nor he, both self-proclaimed veterans of the industry, noticed anything amiss.

But when Wei Dong said it, it seemed like something really wasn't right.

This matter definitely carries some weight with the TV station, but it doesn't matter to outsiders like them.

The key point is that this detail made Yu Qili unusually suspicious.

All the heroes and lords who achieve great things are people with unwavering will.

In other words, you have to stick to your own opinions, otherwise you'll have been led around by others long ago.

Now, Yu Qili is beginning to doubt his most prized foresight and his outstanding business acumen.

Am I really out of touch with this era?

This has always been what he resented the most.

This young man stole her luck.

Because this was clearly a porter who used to sit under the eaves of the Wanshang Trading Company, squeezed among a pile of tattered clothes to watch the news!

At forty-seven, he was exactly twice the age of Wei Dong.

Looking at the energetic yet calm and composed junior in front of him, he finally felt something: "Even when I saw your office building, offices and hotel these past few days, and saw so many people working with you, I didn't feel this way."

Wei Dong smiled and handed the keys to the video recording van to Yu Xiaoqiu, gesturing a few times to tell her what kind of footage she wanted to film.

The pretty secretary had been to Hong Kong and Southeast Asia; she had seen the world through his company.

I listened carefully and attentively to ensure the completion of the filming task.

Wei Dong then touched the Jeep keys, signaling Lao You to follow him.

He also stopped the two Taoist priests who were about to drive another car: "Take good care of them, what could possibly happen in Pingjing!"

He still has the Type 77 rifle strapped to his waist.

Regardless of what Shen Laosan, Cheng Lang, or even Wu Xi said, Wei Dong only trusted himself in this matter.

It's very close, not even to the Second Deputy Bureau Chief's residence near the capital. It's next to the train station, across the street from the famous Beijing Hospital, and right next to the towering and imposing Hong Kong-funded Surround View Hotel.

Speaking of the two train stations in Pingjing City, the two buildings he helped build are located next to them. The connections Jin Zhuoqun made to get the land must have been closely related to the railway.

Based solely on these two properties, Wei Dong gave Jin Zhuoqun the idea of ​​using oral liquid.

Of course, this is on the premise that he doesn't harm anyone with this thing.

Even if he sells tap water, it would still be a dereliction of duty in the health product market and drug regulation.

Without explaining where he came from, he said, "I have never had any ill intentions towards you. It was the same four years ago in Shangzhou, and it was the same two years ago in Jiangzhou. There are many things I can learn from you, and of course, there are also many detours that I need to be careful not to take."

The small jeep went straight into the underground parking garage. Originally, the Hong Kong side only designed the underground parking garage to have one floor, but Wei Dong insisted on adding three floors!

The two extra floors belong to him.

Nobody can understand why he had to build so many underground parking garages.

The twenty or thirty ground parking spaces in front of the hotel are not yet full.

The only underground parking garage that has been completed and put into use is used for unloading hotel supplies vehicles, but there are fewer private cars on it than on the ground floor of the TV production building.

When Wei Dong drove over, his little jeep was completely empty.

It does make it convenient to set up both the hotel management office and the property management office in the garage.

Hong Kong-style management is still very pragmatic, using all the best rooms and floors to make money, even making the office area in the underground parking garage rather cramped, and connecting and sharing it with the restaurant's large kitchen behind it.

So there were quite a lot of people coming and going, but when they saw the Chinese boss, everyone from the receptionist to the managers and supervisors greeted him repeatedly, especially the Hong Kong staff who were very respectful and called him "Mr. Rang".

After all, in the past two months, whenever you were in Hong Kong, you could see basketball news in various newspapers linked to this Bo Zai Dong.

I knew he was already in the same league as Uncle De and Lao Heng, owning a multi-million dollar mansion.

Wei Dong quite liked the professional style of the HK team and admired the work atmosphere here, so he sent a lot of people over to learn.

The kitchen also has a chef brought in from Jiangzhou who is building his own team.

All the offices were closed off without windows. His room was only seven or eight square meters, with a table, three chairs, and a long sofa.

He led the somewhat bewildered You Qili inside, then beckoned to his assistant to bring over a set of work clothes.

A Hong Kong-made work suit, close to You Qili's tall stature, was quickly delivered, and the size of the leather shoes was also available.

After having Wei Dong sign for the receipt, I quickly changed into a similar suit, put on the hotel's name tag, took the walkie-talkie from the table and hung it on my waist, and even used some hair wax to tidy up my hair. Then I stood at the door and communicated with a group of staff.

With 380 guest rooms, including 40 executive suites and 80 business suites, it is no wonder that its location makes it the most popular five-star hotel in Beijing.

Just a few hundred meters from the train station, across from a top-tier hospital and the old embassy district, it attracts a diverse range of foreign visitors. It's not as politically charged as the main street outside; it's simply a Hong Kong-managed hotel.

Standing in a cluster of alleyways, it is particularly attractive to foreign tourists.

Therefore, it immediately became the preferred landing point for Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan businessmen coming to Beijing, and it has an excellent reputation in the industry.

Yu Qili, who was wearing a polyester short-sleeved shirt in the summer, changed out of it. Even though he had experience wearing suits, he still had to get used to this slightly tight workwear style.

Wei Dong just wanted to see if he could completely suppress his boss-like demeanor, and even jokingly taught him to use hair wax to style his middle-aged bald patch.

He then toured the entire hotel, saying, "I have placed nearly twenty people in this hotel, from waiters to supervisors, administrative managers, and vice presidents. They are all college graduates from the last two years, and they should all become hotel general manager level talents in the future. Just this little bit of professional experience is enough for us to lead more than a hundred budget hotels and business hotels."

He deliberately walked through the kitchen, which was about to be busy preparing lunch, and the chefs and apprentices from Jiangzhou were very welcoming to him.

But once inside the hotel lobby, everyone displayed impeccable manners and professionalism.

From the lobby manager to the cleaning staff, everyone showed subtle respect and greetings, and they were extra careful to do their jobs well.

The wages are not cheap; security guards and gatekeepers earn 500 yuan a month, while pretty and tall receptionists can earn 800 to 1,000 yuan.

The recruitment drive was quite a spectacle.

You Qili was undoubtedly shocked: "More than two years ago, when I left Jiangzhou, your development in Pingjing wasn't this fast, was it?"

Wei Dong casually boasted, "In another year, I will have two five-star hotels, one three-star business hotel, and three budget hotels in Beijing. The same level will be available in Shanghai. I've already talked to you about this before. At this stage, it's much more profitable to focus on building a solid business than your so-called quick in-and-out buying and selling. My total assets in China have already exceeded 200 million, and they are mostly fixed assets with huge potential for future appreciation. Overseas, they will be more than ten times that amount."

They're all adults now, so let's stop with the nagging and persuasion, and get straight to the results.

Yu Qili was indeed struck dumb, and he blurted out, completely subconsciously, "Really...really...?"

Due to geographical limitations within the Second Ring Road of Beijing, it is not easy to get approval for 20-story high-rise buildings at present.

The fourteen-story building occupies a much larger area than the television production building.

From an aerial view, the facade of the "T"-shaped building resembles a giant birdcage, exuding the grandeur of the Grand Lisboa Casino Hotel.

The first floor includes a lobby, coffee bar, business center, fitness center, and even an indoor swimming pool.

The second and third floors housed four or five upscale restaurants of different types, and Qin Zhiming conveniently included a fine dining Western restaurant in each one.

He has already established a presence in Shanghai, and his management and salaries for raw material supply, chefs, and service staff are all quite mature.

It can also help local Cantonese and Japanese restaurants adapt to the mainland market, while Wei Dong has provided two high-end Sichuan and Southwest Chinese restaurants.

Now, they take us to visit each hotel individually, and there are also hotel "intern" members who give reports and exchange ideas.

Then, along the way, lightning strikes were released: "The annual output value of the factory in Jiangzhou can now reach about 300 million, but the profit is very thin. It is spread into wages as much as possible in order to prevent capitalists from targeting it. But the computer OEM factory in Shanghai can achieve an annual output value of more than 3 billion US dollars."

You Qili is already quite resilient. He has traveled all over the country and met many so-called wealthy businessmen, and has also come into contact with some Hong Kong businessmen and overseas Chinese businessmen.

But I've never heard of such an equivalent.

The person swayed slightly, probably because they weren't used to walking on the looped carpet.

Wei Dong suggested that he go and see for himself: "Industry is the foundation of national prosperity. Some of these factories in Shanghai are in cooperation with Shanghai Vacuum Electronics, and some are joint ventures between me and foreign investors such as Citibank. The same scale in Pengzhen West District Industrial Park has an output value of about two billion US dollars. I am the largest shareholder of West District Wharf and also the largest shareholder of China National Container Group. There is cooperation with China Merchants Investment Group in this. Now I am a Hong Kong citizen, so I am now investing in the mainland as a patriotic businessman. Including the Guangzhou-Pengzhen Expressway, I am also a shareholder of China Merchants Investment Bank."

You Qili, who had spent more than a year in Pengzhen, was already numb from the shock.

He certainly knew the quality of the West District Wharf; it was an independent reform and development zone comparable to the entire city.

In Pengzhen City, the West District, despite its boastful reputation, is a powerful and influential organization that is not to be trifled with.

Wei Dongcai went down to the guest room floor and used the walkie-talkie to check the coverage of the surveillance cameras.

He came mainly to see this.

"More than two years ago, you sold me the building elevator factory for 400,000 yuan. Now it is our weapon to expand into high-rise buildings across the country and impact the housing reform."

The ten small barges that were sold to me for 300,000 have now expanded into an inland waterway fleet of over thirty vessels. We've also imported over ten crane vessels from Hong Kong and distributed them to wharves along the coast, along with more than ten tourist speedboats. Finally, we've ordered a Panamax container ship from the Shanghai Shipyard, costing nearly 30 million US dollars.

You Qili had to lean against the wall to walk.

Wei Dong wanted to keep pushing: "The elevator factory even built a cable car for me to go to the top of Qutang Gorge for tourism. Even the neon light factory and screen printing factory that you paid off have now become the backbone of my entire production system. What about you?"

These words are like a knife to the heart!

The unpolished gem that You Qili hadn't yet unearthed truly shone in Wei Dong's hands.

This cannot be explained by simply taking away his reputation and luck.

It is indeed an ability.

Of course, the most disheartening thing is the final market result.

Even now, You Qili remains a speculative businessman who is constantly on the go, like a beggar.

However, Wei Dong had already formed a massive and impressive operation.

Are you satisfied?
