I want to be a giant of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 239 [Money Burning Industry]

What is the most painful thing for a successful businessman?
That is money in hand, but no projects!

Wu Guangyao is experiencing this kind of pain. The zipper business has earned Wu Guangyao nearly 2800 million US dollars in the past two years. He invested 800 million US dollars in Hong Kong Island Airlines, and there is still a full 2000 million US dollars lying in the bank account.

Wu Guangyao couldn't figure it out. He suddenly had so much money, either to do business or to invest the profits to make money, but he couldn't spend the money in his hands.

Global shipping is now a joint-stock system, and it is difficult for Wu Guangyao to invest his own money; besides, according to the current development trend of global shipping, it may reach the peak of the world in the late 60s, and unlimited arbitrage will be possible in the 70s.Therefore, Global Shipping does not need to pay another penny for development. Even if it is about to invest in ports, terminals, containers, etc., Global Shipping can also withdraw funds.Moreover, I plan not to pay dividends or arbitrage in the first ten years.

Hong Kong Island Airlines does not need to invest any more. The aviation industry is like this in this era. After all, not everyone can afford to fly; Hong Kong Island Airlines can basically be self-sufficient in its follow-up investment, and the 80s can also reap a lot.

Because the zipper industry is a manufacturing industry, it is like a cash cow, which is the main source of Wu Guangyao's deposits; even if it needs to build factories around the world in the later stage, it is a trivial matter for PG zippers and YKK zippers.

Uniqlo is composed of three brands: Uniqlo, Armani, and Valentino, which can also bring Wu Guangyao a profit of more than 60 US dollars every year; as for outward development, the time is not yet ripe.

The Yangtze River is a real estate industry, but Wu Guangyao does not plan to develop too fast. Anyway, he can become the number one real estate company on Hong Kong Island in the late 70s, so why should he rush to invest heavily now.The real estate industry is seriously affected by the balance of supply, sudden political events, and the international environment. As long as I acquire a large amount of land every time during the downturn, I can become the real estate hegemony on Hong Kong Island.

Laofengxiang Jewelry, from the time when it purchased the De Beers license with a loan, the company has already completed the largest investment; at this time, it has begun to generate a large amount of profits for Wu Guangyao, and the annual diamond profit in Dongying alone is more than 40 US dollars; the company's The annual profit is almost $100 million.

After thinking about it, Wu Guangyao felt that these companies don't need to pay for their development anymore, so the money in their hands must be spent!

Do you want to play a difficult and money-burning industry?
For example, the electrical and electronic industry, but Wu Guangyao worried that even if he had a small achievement, he would be easily wiped out by the terrifying Dongying.

You must know that in the previous life in 1964, at the Tokyo Palace Hotel, Panasonic, Hitachi, Mitsubishi, Sanyo, Sharp, Toshiba and other leading TV producers held a secret meeting.This meeting is the famous "Ten Days Meeting" in later generations, and the content of the meeting is the agreement on product sales of these six major companies.At that time, Japan's main competitor in the electrical appliance industry was the US electrical appliance industry.In order to defeat the rival of the United States and occupy the international market as soon as possible, the six companies decided to adopt two prices for TV sales, that is, the high price of 700 US dollars in Japan, but only 400 US dollars in the United States, which is 40% cheaper than TVs produced in the United States. to 60%.

It is conceivable that the TV manufacturers in the United States can only parry but have no power to fight back. Many manufacturers can only choose to go bankrupt. Even Motorola's TV business was acquired by Panasonic.

European and American manufacturers and Japanese manufacturers have significant differences in business operation methods.

The business ideas of European and American companies are more focused and focused on their core business.

However, Dongying companies have completely different ideas. They focus more on the systematization of the industrial chain and build a complete industrial structure and technical barriers.Then through the optimization and integration of the entire industrial chain, the cost of the product is reduced to the extreme, so as to gain a price advantage in the fierce competition.

It is precisely because of this that Wu Guangyao feels that this industry is difficult to deal with, and the enemy is really powerful!
Of course, even if Wu Guangyao did not do it, there were actually three radio factories (possibly OEMs) on Hong Kong Island in 1960.

If you want to develop the electrical and electronic industry, you will definitely invest in your own industrial chain around the world, just like Apple in later generations.

Europe, the United States, Japan, Taiwan, Sing Tao, Hong Kong Island, South Korea, etc. can all invest in building factories in the future, and use local talents to develop for themselves.

On Hong Kong Island, several universities can also set up electrical, electronic and other science and engineering majors, and even companies can also set up evening schools to offer these courses.

"Fight it, money is nothing but scraps of paper for a top rich man like me!"

Wu Guangyao lined up the desks proudly and made a solemn oath!

Developing the electrical appliance industry by yourself is naturally not a step-by-step process of finding a factory, recruiting people, and researching and developing;
This is what those junior entrepreneurs do. If they hold a lot of dollars in their hands and do this, their brains will be smashed.

I started directly from the acquisition, and the first step was to acquire a Dongying radio factory;
It's only the end of February at this time, and the world's first transistor radio will appear in November this year, maybe it can still grab this title!

At the end of February, Wu Guangyao and Lin Yueru took the flight of their own airline to Dongying to inspect the radio factory.

When you come to the waiting area of ​​Kai Tak Airport, you can feel the strong smell of gunpowder. Regardless of the different flight routes of Hong Kong Island Airlines and Cathay Pacific Airways, they are definitely life and death enemies.

Originally, Swire Pacific had been waiting for Hong Kong Island Airlines to go bankrupt, so it bought it, and then handed over the flight license to the Hong Kong government for destruction;
In this way, there will never be a second local airline on Hong Kong Island, and Cathay Pacific has added several routes.

You know, compared with European and American airlines, the Hong Kong government will take special care of local airlines, which have advantages in route.

Who knew that Wu Guangyao was born, and within a few days he won Hong Kong Island Airlines;
At this time, Hong Kong Island Airlines not only has Wu Guangyao, a Chinese businessman, but Jardine Matheson is also a shareholder. Naturally, the background is not weak, and Swire Matheson can only sigh.

What made Swire Pacific even more incredible was that Hong Kong Island Airlines suddenly became so unbelievable, as if it had been cast by magic.

Cathay Pacific is also smart and began to learn directly from it.

Therefore, the two airlines are competing to see whose service is better.

After Wu Guangyao and Lin Yueru passed through the ticket gate and checkpoint, and entered the lobby, there is an exclusive area for Hong Kong Island Airlines. There are service staff here, who will provide customers with newspapers, tea, coffee, snacks, etc., so that customers no longer have to wait anxiously.

"Mr. Wu, Madam, what would you like to drink?" The sharp-eyed person in charge of the terminal immediately recognized Wu Guangyao, and stepped forward to ask.

"You have done a good job. I hope you will continue to work hard! We don't need anything, so go and do your work!" Wu Guangyao's first words made the person in charge extremely happy.

At this time, Hong Kong Island Airlines, although Wu Guangyao was under laissez-faire management, the plan given by Wu Guangyao was like a bible, which all Hong Kong Island Airlines people kept in mind at all times.

This kind of influence can be achieved without Wu Guangyao appearing in front of these people every day.

Even the people from Jardine Matheson gave their thumbs up!

You know, taking the routes from Hong Kong Island to Tokyo and Hong Kong Island to Osaka as examples, Hong Kong Island Airlines needs to compete with airlines in Japan, Europe and the United States; if you can’t let customers have a good experience, others will not choose you next time .

Therefore, Jardine Matheson really did not expect that according to Wu Guangyao's management method, in the past few months, the number of passengers of Hong Kong Island Airlines has increased by about 30%.

After waiting for a while, Wu Guangyao and Lin Yueru started to board the plane. Seeing these stewardesses, Wu Guangyao felt a little lusty.

First of all, the clothing has been redesigned by Uniqlo, adding many elements of later generations, and the legs are matched with nylon black stockings;

Secondly, the makeup has been carefully and delicately dressed;

Finally, the form and smile have been rigorously trained.

In this way, these flight attendants can make those male customers choose to fly with Hong Kong Island Airlines again.

Seeing such a change, Wu Guangyao is very pleased. Perhaps with these soft powers, he can make Hong Kong Island Airlines become the Cathay Pacific Airline of the future, and make a lot of money.

"is it beautiful?"

After sitting down, Lin Yueru's voice reached Wu Guangyao's ears, and it was obviously murderous.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm inspecting them to see if they are qualified or not, that's why I stare at them unscrupulously!"

"Hmph, even if you're investigating, the desire in your eyes can't fool anyone!"

Wu Guangyao leaned into Lin Yueru's ear and said: "My desire is the clothes and silk stockings on them. I will go to the company to ask for two sets later, and you can wear them for me at home, so you don't have to worry. Your husband will beat these stewardesses." Pay attention!"

When Lin Yueru heard it, her face turned red, and she said in a low voice: "I'm ashamed, you go and ask for two sets, people will know that I wore them, how can I see people in the future?"

Wu Guangyao thought about it, so he said disappointedly: "That's right, forget it!"

"You're stupid, why don't you ask someone to get it from Uniqlo?" Lin Yueru said suddenly.

Wu Guangyao was taken aback for a moment, why didn't he think of it!

The passenger plane landed slowly at the Tokyo airport. After the customers left, Wu Guangyao and Lin Yueru still hadn't left. After a while, the stewardess and the pilot all came in front of them.

"This flight experience gave me the feeling that it was very pleasant! I only have one opinion, do you want to hear it?" Wu Guangyao joked to this group of beautiful women.

Although there are Japanese, Chinese, European and American people here, they must know one language, that is English, so it is not difficult for Wu Guangyao to communicate with them.

"Of course!" "Boss, I want to hear it!"

Wu Guangyao said with a smile: "It's self-confidence, you still lack a little self-confidence! Confidence and service do not conflict. Your stewardesses are like angels, who can calm the nervousness of passengers, so you should be more self-confident while providing thoughtful service. "
