Return to Hong Kong Island for a Century

Chapter 215 Riding the Wave (Second Update, 3400+ words)

"Mhm!" Liu Jiale nodded.

"Go ahead and do whatever you want with the TV station. If you have any problems, just come to me." Li Song told Liu Jiale to go ahead and do his job.

"Thank you!" Although Liu Jiale didn't know how much power Li Song had, he had seen the governor's change in attitude.

That's how they treated the governor that day, and then the governor quickly changed his mind?

Could it be that the governor was threatened?

Uh?
Then I thought of what Li Song said to the governor...

Anyway, Liu Jiale didn't dare to think too much.

After finishing his business, Li Song went home. The contract for Amin's comics would be drafted on Monday after the legal department started work, and then Amin's mother would sign it.

Back home, Li Song continued writing, and he finished it next week.

"What a life of toil!" The reason Li Song still had to write it himself was because of style; even if an outline was drawn up, different people would write in different styles.

In addition, these two books are his first major works, and he plans to finish writing them and then study a major.

There's no need for management, because management only requires enforcing the system, and the management system I've developed is the most meticulous of this era.

Of course, as technology advances, the system will also be updated.

"Carbon fiber technology, we need to bring that out too!!"

"Unfortunately, graphene technology is not yet up to par!"

"Quantum communication and quantum chip technology are also not feasible."

"Carbon-based chips will still be decades away."

"It's a pity I was laid-back in my past life. It would have been better if I had been a top student in science and engineering or an engineer. But all I know how to do is play games and watch movies."

"But it's not too late for me to learn now." Li Song knew he had a natural advantage.

What's the advantage? It's that with today's high-end technology, you can customize detailed test procedures and video materials on second-hand platforms. That's our biggest advantage.

Chip design is something I can learn on my own.

I can do chip research myself.

Materials technology, carbon fiber testing, and so on.

All you need for any experiment is a laboratory. Just follow the steps one by one, and you'll get results.

However, there is a limitation: Li Song will absolutely not participate in any dangerous experiments, because many experiments may involve dangers, toxicity, or harm, and most of these toxic and harmful substances are carcinogenic.

"Biotechnology?"

"I still haven't remembered the name of the little blue pill from last time..."

"Sigh," Li Song muttered to himself.

"What kind of persona should we create?" Li Song still needed to create a persona.

The status of a writer today is very restrictive; even if one writes a Nobel Prize-winning article, that's about it.

Because of cultural, linguistic, and regional differences, it's difficult for them to break out of their niche.

As Li Song wrote, he thought about it in his mind, because there were many examples.

"Technology!" Li Song is preparing to build his tech persona.

Because technology is a globally applicable concept, many big names cultivate a tech persona, although most of them may start by doing some research work.

Later on, there wasn't enough time to do research work; it was all done by the subordinates.

My own is different; I copied... well, copied from a second-hand platform.

For example, our custom-designed reduced instruction set chip is based on the technology and science of this era and is designed independently.

In this era, it is necessary to invest human, material, and financial resources in continuous experimentation in order to find the optimal result.

However, if you customize something yourself on a second-hand platform, you won't need to go through so much trial and error.

Because for people on second-hand platforms, their requirements are based on technology from a hundred years ago, just like asking someone to design electrical products from a hundred years ago. For professionals, that's too easy.

"However, chips involve too many things, let's take a look first." Li Song made up his mind that his next persona would be a tech tycoon.

On Monday, Li Song, accompanied by his bodyguard, arrived at Parkson Department Store.

"Mr. Li!" Zhang Dehua was already waiting.

"It's in the car. There's not much stuff this time," Li Song said.

"Okay, okay." Zhang Dehua was a little disappointed because Li Song's car wasn't very big this time.

"Inside are some cosmetic formulas, as well as related design patents, appearance, packaging, logos, and so on," Li Song said as he entered the company.

Zhang Dehua and his entourage, along with company personnel, got into the car and took the documents. There were still five boxes, weighing several dozen kilograms in total.

Then the people in the company took the documents to the meeting room and started registering.

This includes skincare products, makeup, haircare, fragrances, children's cosmetics, and more.

Several major categories and dozens of models are available, targeting different genders, skin types, and even ethnicities.

"Boss, your senior apprentice is here." Tian Jiahui said in a low voice as Li Song entered his office.

"coming?"

"It arrived last night; I called it."

"Let's meet tonight."

“Boss, how about we move to a different office location? After all, you have more and more businesses under your name,” Tian Jiahui said again.

"Sure, come up with a plan." Li Song thought it was acceptable.

"Yes, yes, I've arranged to meet with the FIM (International Motorcycle Racing Federation) official this afternoon, and Zhang Dehua is coming over this morning," Tian Jiahui said.

"This afternoon it is."

“The people from Boeing will probably arrive tomorrow afternoon. What do you think of the meeting time?” Tian Jiahui asked again.

"Let's ask them if Wednesday is okay first. If Wednesday isn't possible, then Saturday," Li Song said.

“Okay!” Tian Jiahui nodded. Baisheng Company now has wholly-owned subsidiaries: BMW Motorrad, BMW Automobile, BMW Marine Engines, Anjie Security, and a semiconductor laboratory that is currently under preparation.

As for the aircraft manufacturing company, it is a sole proprietorship owned by Li Song in mainland China and has no connection with Parkson Company.

Parkson Company is also a wholly owned company of Li Song.

"Find a few reporters over there. Boeing is here; let's make the most of it and boost our company's reputation." Li Song thought for a moment; Boeing's visit was a great opportunity to become famous.

"In addition, we will appropriately disclose the amount of our international patent holdings."

“This way, our motorcycles might sell even better,” Li Song continued.

"Great!" Tian Jiahui was very happy to hear Li Song's words.

Because Parkson is too low-key, its relatives and friends are not doing well.

Li Song knew he couldn't hide it anymore, so he might as well go all out. Even if Boeing didn't cooperate, he could still get some attention.

There are many examples of this. For instance, at a certain stock market guru's dinner, someone took the money but didn't attend, which generated a lot of traffic, and then that person made a fortune.

Li Song felt he should be a little shameless too.

From now on, whoever provokes me, I'll use them to generate traffic. I don't know how to market myself, but I have examples to share.

Of course, my technique may not be as smooth as others, but as long as it's done well, that's fine.

"Also, have Zhang Dehua leak some information as well, such as how his small company is begging for cooperation, how many times they've come, and so on. Don't release all this information at once; first, let's ride on Boeing's fame. Once it's enough, then release the real information," Li Song added.

"When the time is right, we can take reporters to visit our factories in the mainland, but don't take pictures of the production workshops, just the finished products and the scale of the factory," Li Song said in one breath.

"Okay, okay!" Tian Jiahui finally understood that you should never mess with intellectuals. Look at the boss's scheming; even Boeing will be used.

"Boss, about the racing?" Tian Jiahui asked, taking the initiative.

"Let's talk about it when the design drawings are ready."

"When the time comes, bring out the design drawings and plans. If you can also have photos of the groundbreaking ceremony, that would be even better, as it would increase the persuasiveness of the proposal!"

"The report should focus on how companies on Hong Kong Island do these things, which is an honor for all the people of Hong Kong Island." There's no rush, because there's already buzz to be gained.

However, Li Song was very happy that he could already make the connection with Tian Jiahui!
That way, I won't have to remind him what to do in the future.

"Okay," Tian Jiahui replied.

"Is the boss planning to sell cosmetics?"

"Cosmetics have a pretty high profit margin!"

"My wife buys small quantities of cosmetics, but they're expensive," Tian Jiahui asked again.
"I don't have the energy to do this right now!" Li Song shook his head.

This time, Zhang Dehua left with the contract and patent documents in just one morning!
In the morning, Li Song handled some company matters.

Not long after I started work in the afternoon, the receptionist called to say that an official from the International Motorcycle Racing Federation had arrived.

Li Song and Tian Jiahui went downstairs!
Two people from the International Motorcycle Racing Federation (FISM) attended this event: a deputy director and an assistant deputy director.

The deputy director was a bald, white Western European man. Li Song couldn't tell which country he was from, but he looked somewhat like a Scotsman.

The assistant looks like someone who keeps a small notebook.

Li Song only found out this morning. The International Motorcycle Racing Federation (FISM) is a non-profit organization with representatives from its member countries.

These representatives are those recommended by the motorcycle racing associations of each member country!

Logically speaking, if Yum! Brands wants to organize motorcycle racing competitions, it should go through the British Motorcycle Racing Association.

However, the event was held in mainland China, and there is no such association in mainland China.

So this becomes very interesting.

Normally, given the nature of Westerners, a decision in this situation would require a lengthy discussion.

But this time, Tian Jiahui only sent someone to inquire, and the other party took the initiative to come to his door!
Therefore, Tian Jiahui would have suspicions.

The deputy director's name is David, and the deputy director's assistant is Tanaka Ichiro.

"Mr. David, it's a pleasure to have your help!" One shouldn't refuse a smiling face, so after the introductions, Li Song cupped his hands in greeting.

David was about to extend his hand to shake yours, but Li Song unexpectedly cupped his hands in a gesture of respect.

David, somewhat curious, spread his hands and asked, "I'm also very happy to meet Mr. Li!"

David had already inquired about Li Song's background after arriving in Hong Kong.

David came here because he had friends on Hong Kong Island.

David then learned that Li Song was a well-known writer and also a multi-millionaire.

Here, "tens of millions" refers to tens of millions of pounds.

"Mr. Li's etiquette seems like something out of a kung fu movie?" David asked as he walked side by side toward the conference room with Li Song.
"Mr. David is truly knowledgeable!"

"Yes, I personally love martial arts!" Li Songhao praised the other party without reservation.

"Thank you for the compliment!"

"Mr. Li, your situation this time is rather complicated!"

"Given your status, you should apply to the London motorsport association!"

"However, considering that the event is being held in mainland China, we made special arrangements!"

"Our motorsport association is a non-profit organization and is willing to develop more member countries!"

"Mr. Li, could you give me a brief overview of the event we're going to hold? I can offer some professional advice," David said to Li Song as they walked.

"That's great!"

"I personally love motorsports!"

"This event will be held in Taihu Lake in inland China!"

"The track is about 400 kilometers long!"

“We need professional advice, and we would also like Mr. David to recommend a professional design company.”

"We need to build a first-class off-road motorcycle racing track." Li Song answered these questions directly when the other party asked them directly.
