I want to be a giant of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 360 [Never soften your heart! 】

The department store war ended, and Daxin Department Store and Zhonghua Department Store under Baiyou Group became the final winners;

Originally, Dah Sing Department Store and Zhonghua Department Store combined may not have as high turnover as Xianshi Department Store;

After the department store war, the two department stores already owned, not weaker than Xianshi and Wing On;
Of course, the most important reason is that the two department stores have big backers!
For department stores in the 60s and supermarkets in the 70s, Baiyou Group will always compete for the first place and be ashamed to be the second;

Supermarkets are relatively simple, and Baiyou Group will jointly operate large supermarkets in Asia with Metro;
And the franchise right of Metro Convenience Store Asia also belongs to Baiyou Group.

The war ended, and Mark came to Wu Guangyao's office;

The excitement and excitement on the road have been put away at this time, replaced by respect;

Although the boss Wu Guangyao did not participate in this battle, he gave a lot of support;
For example, Dongying Lenovo Group provides a steady stream of low-cost electrical appliances;
For example, Metro Group has provided a lot of support.

"You performed very well in this department store war!" Wu Guangyao leaned his back on the office chair and carefully looked at Mark, a foreigner. He was tall but thin, giving the impression that he was very shrewd.

"Thank you BOSS for the compliment. In fact, the main reason for the victory of Daxin and Zhonghua is because they are backed by big trees; even Xianshi and Yong'an are far behind in this regard; their family management is too strong, although they can There are advantages in the early stage of development, but once the scale increases, this model is a disadvantage.” Mark said.

"You no longer regard them as opponents?" Wu Guangyao said calmly.

Mark quickly said: "That's not true, but I have the confidence to slowly erode their market in the mid-end market."

"That means they are already your prey?" Wu Guangyao attacked Mark again.

"Yes!" This time, Mark said decisively without hesitation.

Wu Guangyao didn't feel that there was anything wrong after hearing this. Anyone with ability is confident!

As far as Wu Guangyao knows, Xianshi Department Store and Wing On Department Store of the later generations were finally defeated by the double blow of large supermarkets and Japanese department stores in the 70s;
Wing On Department Store took the lead in investing in Dongying Department Store, paying a price of 40% of the shares, and quickly spread its second spring. At that time, it was six times the turnover of Xianshi Department Store.

"What did I remind you before this department store war?" Wu Guangyao asked calmly.

"Pay attention to oriental goods. As the BOSS analyzed, oriental goods are indeed more popular! So, I will pay attention to this issue in the future." Mark said seriously.

"What else?" Wu Guangyao continued to ask.

This time, Mark finally couldn't answer immediately. He didn't know what answer Wu Guangyao wanted!
Mark pondered, BOSS is testing himself, but he doesn't seem to have any ideas?

Dongying. Dongying. What does this little dwarf deserve the boss's attention?

hi. hi. bow down
Mark has been to the Dafan department store opened by the Japanese on Hong Kong Island, so he still remembers that scene.

Wu Guangyao was not in a hurry, he had enough time to wait quietly for Mark's answer.

"It's the service. BOSS thinks the Japanese department store's service is very good!" Mark suddenly realized and raised his voice.

Wu Guangyao nodded in satisfaction, and added: "What you said is very one-sided. I often go to Japan for business trips. All their service industries have a spirit. Let's call this spirit--the customer is God. So, I think You should have a real opponent, and that is Dongying's department store industry; it is both an opponent and a good teacher!"

After listening to Wu Guangyao's words, Mark replied seriously: "Yes, BOSS, I will study their strengths seriously."

"If employees want to treat customers as gods, then the company should also treat employees well; well, I have said everything that needs to be said, you can understand it slowly!"

Mark walked out of Wu Guangyao's office, and couldn't help but think that the success of BOSS was not accidental, and he thought more about many details than his subordinates.

In early December 1962, the last tanker of the ship built by Global Shipping in early 12 began to launch;
And immediately signed a five-year long-term contract with Yamaguchi Kisen Company until the end of the contract in early December 1967.

Undoubtedly, this oil tanker will lose five months of high freight rates, because in June 1967, when the third Middle East war broke out, freight rates are bound to rise immediately.

This is just a smoke bomb of Wu Guangyao, or it is just a means to attack the opponent!

After the launch of this ship, Global Shipping already has a fleet of 760 million tons of deadweight; among them, the new ship has a deadweight of 710 million tons, and the old ship has a deadweight of 30 tons after the elimination of 50 tons.

The size of this fleet is equivalent to the level of Bao Yugang in his previous life in 1971, but Wu Guangyao still has 200 million tons of deadweight ships under construction.

In fact, in terms of the time spent, Bao Yugang in his previous life completed a load of 1955 million tons in 1971 years from 16 to 780;

And Wu Guangyao completed the load of 1949 million tons in 1962 years from 13 to 760;
It seems that the difference is not big, but it is not;
First of all, the ships currently owned by Wu Guangyao are basically all new ships;
Secondly, for Wu Guangyao's 760 million tons of deadweight, he does not owe a penny;
Finally, Wu Guangyao also has various assets such as a 200 million-ton deadweight ship and 15 container terminals under construction.

"Mr. Wu, happy cooperation! I believe this is a win-win situation, and our two companies will get what we need!" The person in charge of Yamaguchi Kisen, Yu Suzuki, stood beside Wu Guangyao and said affectionately.

"Happy cooperation, Mr. Suzuki!" Wu Guangyao responded.

In fact, the cooperation is really pleasant. An oil tanker with a deadweight of 10 tons is leased to Yamaguchi Steamship Company for 5 years;
Five years later, the oil tanker has basically returned its capital, without major failures.

The reason why it is so profitable is also because the shipping price in the 60s was one of the best stages in the entire [-]th century;

Throughout the 60s, the industry in Europe, America and Japan was in the era of blowout development, so it was easier to do shipping by the way.

Back on Hong Kong Island, Wu Guangyao encountered an unpleasant incident on his first day at work.

It turned out that a new cargo ship encountered a typhoon in the Philippine Sea during its first voyage, causing it to run aground and suffer heavy losses.

"Have you questioned the captain and the crew?" Wu Guangyao asked Gao Ke and He Yuanzhang who came in to report the situation.

"I asked, and I've come to a conclusion! This typhoon was forecasted, and the captain was ignorant of the equipment on board and the climate at that time, which was the main cause of the accident."

Wu Guangyao's complexion was not good when he heard the words, and it is simply unforgivable that the captain made such a big mistake;
The cost of this 5-ton ore-pulling ship was US$700 million, and the cargo on board was also calculated in millions of US dollars. Such a high price was caused by an inexperienced and unprepared captain who suffered serious losses.

"This is a big warning! The captain is inexperienced and responsible, and he will cause such a danger. We still have bigger supertankers, don't you worry?" Wu Guangyao said in a bad tone.

"Boss, it's because I didn't do my job well!" Gao Ke lowered her head and blamed herself.

Wu Guangyao waved his hand and said decisively: "I don't like this here! From now on, the captains and senior maritime personnel of supertankers must undergo strict training from experts before they can take up their posts; all captains and senior maritime personnel on duty , all need to take time to go to the Global Maritime Academy to receive regular training from experts."

"As for the captain who was involved in the accident this time, after the dismissal, an announcement will be made throughout the company! Other senior seafarers, you should find out the facts and dismiss those who should be dismissed. You will never be soft-hearted."

At this time, Wu Guangyao was decisive in killing and attacking, and he would not sympathize with those people at all!
Even if there is an insurance company to pay for the ore-pulling ship that was involved in the accident, the global shipping would have suffered a loss of more than one million US dollars.

Does Wu Guangyao have any reason to be heartbroken!
