Hong Kong's new giants

Chapter 459 [Reject Fat Spray]

Early July, Queen's Road 'Nine Central'.

In the conference room of Hengchang Holdings, senior staff gathered together.

Lin Zuhui sat in the main seat, very satisfied with the current development of Hengchang Holdings.Hengchang Holdings is located in 'Hutchison Whampoa', but it is only half the size of Hutchison Whampoa, and this half is mainly due to the second trading business of Hong Kong's subsidiary 'Dah Chong Hong' (second only to Jardine Matheson).

Of course, if the beverage and food company develops, it will soon be able to close the gap with 'Hutchison Whampoa'.

But today, Lin Zuhui said seriously: "We have been doing research in the field of traditional Chinese medicine and medicine for almost two years. We have done a lot of reports and research, but we haven't taken real action for a long time. Today, I announce that the 'time Medicine' is officially up and running."

Everyone immediately applauded. From their point of view, Lin Zuhui has a lot of charm, so the boss is willing to invest in medicine, so he is definitely prepared.

Then Lin Zuhui said: "In the past two years, I have also read a lot of research reports and analysis reports, so 'Time Medicine' is now divided into two parts: first, research and development of western medicine, and immediately set up the research and development of 'anti-cancer drugs'. The initial research and development fund is 5000 million Hong Kong dollars. This is a long-term research and development project. We will invite top talents from all over the world to join our research and development team and cooperate with universities. A new industry, which is also a long-term investment, mainly cooperates with well-known and time-honored Chinese medicine companies in the mainland, and the two parties jointly invest in the establishment of a joint venture company, and then promote and sell in Europe and the United States through Xiangjiang, an entrepot."

A high-level person suggested: "Boss, although traditional Chinese medicine can cure some intractable diseases, foreign blue-eyed people often turn a blind eye to our national quintessence!"

Lin Zuhui said with a smile: "The predecessor of Hengchang Holdings was originally engaged in trading, and sales promotion is not a problem for us. Assuming that we really cooperate with many time-honored Chinese medicine companies in the Mainland and produce the best Chinese medicine products, then the medicine of our era will be It’s like gnawing a hard bone, setting up a Chinese medicine retail store in Europe and the United States, while letting the salespeople tirelessly sell. We have also done a lot of research over the years, and Japan is the direction of our study.”

Everyone nodded. Although this is a difficult problem, it does not mean that there is no prospect.

At this time, Yuan Tianfan said: "Chinese Medicine Port, this project is very big. I think you, the boss, should propose it in the newspaper and invite like-minded people to participate. For example, some Chinese medicine companies in Xiangjiang, such as Eu Yan Sang, are also a century-old brand. Very good product."

The so-called "Chinese medicine port" refers to treating Xiangjiang as an "entrepot port" and using Xiangjiang as a front to export Chinese patent medicines and traditional Chinese medicines from the mainland one by one through the port of Xiangjiang.

Lin Zuhui nodded and said, "We all have to do it whether it will be successful or not. I will do it, and the hope of success is greater."

Everyone couldn't help admiring their boss, who was very aggressive in doing things.

Finally, Lin Zuhui said to Fang Caisheng, the general manager of 'Time Medicine': "Your job now is to build up the team of 'anticancer drugs' first. Remember, we need to attract top talents from all over the world to join us."

Fang Caisheng nodded and said, "Okay, I'll make preparations right away!"

As for the Chinese Medicine Port, it is indeed a very complicated project, and Lin Zuhui can only do a little bit of it.

Times Pharmaceutical's investment has little impact on Hengchang Holdings, a cash cow.After all, it is first and foremost a long-term investment, and secondly, the earlier you invest, the less you invest.

Kwai Chung Container Terminal.

The newly appointed Fei Peng participated in the "Celebration Day" when 2000 million containers rolled off the assembly line of the International Container Terminal. Li Chaoren accompanied his two sons in high spirits, and was immediately photographed by the media.

A reporter privately commented: "Li Chaoren is not so much celebrating himself, it is better to use the name of a grand ceremony to please Hong Kong D."

The companion immediately said: "In this way, the bidding for container terminal No. [-] is not for international containers?"

"Who said no!"

The next day, the news was published in newspapers across Hong Kong.

Many people who were interested in bidding for Container Terminal No. [-] saw Fat Peng smiling when he met Li Ka-shing and his son, as if they were covered in snow in the cold weather, and thought that things were going wrong.

Only Lin Zuhui wasn't worried at all!

Fat Peng is a dangerous person, he won't provoke him, and of course he won't get involved in those crazy things, so he shouldn't offend him!Besides, he doesn't really understand politics, so why bother to participate!

And Li Chaoren thinks that Container Terminal No. [-] has the chance to win, but he is also whimsical. The ZZ family has a few trustworthy people. The first thing Fei Peng does when he comes to power is to put on a show. The first thing is that the former members of the Executive Council have been replaced one after another, so whether it is run by Lin Zuhui or Li Chaoren, they will be burned; the third thing is to start laying mines, and the mines are really big.

Based on this, Lin Zuhui will not get too close to Fat Peng!

All businessmen in Xiangjiang are probably like this. Only Wu Guangzhen, the son-in-law of the Chartered Ship King, supported him. Although he was not held accountable afterwards, it is undoubtedly whimsical for him to still want to compete for that position.

When Fei Peng played the card of being friendly to the people, Lin Zuhui's article on "Chinese Medicine Port" was finally officially published in the "Economic Daily".He once again put forward a plan to rejuvenate Hong Kong - traditional Chinese medicine to rejuvenate Hong Kong. For a while, public opinion surpassed that of Fat Peng who is close to the people.

In the article, Lin Zuhui planned the implementation plan of "Chinese Medicine Port" in detail, talked about the prospect of Chinese medicine, and took Japan as an example, which attracted countless attention for a while.

Hong Kong government.

Fei Peng was told by his assistant that his limelight had been robbed.

He immediately asked: "How is Lin Zuhui's influence in Xiangjiang compared to Li Chaoren?"

The assistant immediately said: "Comprehensively surpassed Li Chaoren. Lin Zuhui is a legend of Xiangjiang. Because of his legendary experience, he is regarded as an idol by many young people. Moreover, he controls Xiangjiang's media and communication, and has almost no public opinion. Opponent. In the end, he successively proposed 'prosperity of Hong Kong with Hong Kong culture', 'prosperity of Hong Kong with comics', and now he proposes 'prosperity of Hong Kong with traditional Chinese medicine', you should know his influence!"

Fat Peng nodded and said, "I've heard of him in London, and I've dealt with him in London, but I didn't expect him to have such a high influence in Xiangjiang. But, do you think he's from there?"

The assistant said: "Some people say that he is pro-inland! However, he is a cunning businessman, he will not participate in politics, and he never expresses his views on this aspect. If he is in a hurry, he will only say that the interests of Xiangjiang are the most important."

Fat Peng pondered for a moment and said, "He aspires to become a world-class businessman. There is nothing wrong with him. He also has investments and donations in London. So you said, I would like to invite him to join the 'General Business Committee', what do you think? ?”

"That's good, but he may shirk, this person is extremely cunning!"

"Try it!"

For Lin Zuhui, Fei Peng also wanted to win him over very much.

Lin Zuhui came to the Hong Kong government. He was invited by Fei Peng. Although he knew that he could not get too close to Fei Peng, Lin Zuhui was still very confident that he would not touch himself.

It can be said that with his current status and wealth, no one can force him to stand in line.Moreover, as long as he doesn't stand in line, it will be more conducive to doing business.

"Your Excellency, long time no see, welcome to Xiangjiang!" Lin Zuhui became enthusiastic as soon as they met, making people think that he and Fei Peng had a good relationship.

Fei Peng also said with a smile: "I haven't seen Mr. Lin for a long time, but I found that Mr. Lin's business is getting bigger and bigger. At Mr. Lin's current age, I am afraid that he will become a world-class big entrepreneur in the future. It is very easy!"

After being polite, the two sat on the sofa.

Fei Peng continued: "I am very supportive of the 'Chinese Medicine Port' proposed by Mr. Lin this time. It is beneficial to the economic diversification of Hong Kong."

Lin Zuhui knew that the more polite he was, the harder it would be for him to refuse later.However, he must refuse.

"Thank you for your support! In fact, this project is very difficult, I just try to do it."

Fat Peng nodded and said with a smile: "I invite Mr. Lin this time to invite you to join the General Business Committee. With Mr. Lin's influence in the Xiangjiang business community, he will definitely be able to make greater contributions to the Xiangjiang economy!"

Lin Zuhui said in embarrassment: "Your Excellency, you may not know me. I don't participate in these political organizations. The main reason is that I am too young and don't have much experience at all, so I am worried about bad things; The company has developed into a world-class enterprise, so it often visits abroad. Including the 'Canary Wharf' project in London. To be honest, I hope to participate in the investment. After all, it is a pity that the project stopped, and that is Wall Street in Europe."

Fat Peng was taken aback for a moment, thinking that the reasons for his refusal were well prepared!
However, if others were unwilling, he couldn't force it, so he diverted the conversation: "The Canary Wharf project is a big project, and Mr. Lin is also interested?"

Lin Zuhui nodded immediately and said, "Last time I had a chat with Richman of Olympia York Company, we have to wait for the situation of this company!"

Fat Peng had no choice but to say: "London welcomes Mr. Lin's investment!"

"Thank you for your encouragement!"

In this way, Lin Zuhui politely rejected Fei Peng. As for whether he would take revenge on Lin Zuhui, there was no need to worry at all.

Since 1978, the status of the Chinese in Xiangjiang has risen invisibly. In addition to the accumulation of economic strength, there is also a close connection with the mainland.Before that, the Chinese had almost no contact with the mainland, which naturally meant that they lost a 'backing'.

But now in the 90s, the Chinese in Xiangjiang have more background, economic strength is a force that cannot be underestimated by any country in the world, and they are eager for investment from Xiangjiang Capital.Needless to say, the world has now entered a stage of economic development, and the world is engaged in an era of economic development. The Soviet Union is gone, China is opening up, and everyone is engaged in economic development.

In Xiangjiang, Fei Peng could not pose a threat to Lin Zuhui at all, let alone Lin Zuhui did not offend him.If he wants to work steadily for five years, he still has to rely on Lin Zuhui.
