Rebirth of Bloody Romance

There was an indescribable light flashing in Zhong Yuemin's eyes. He paused, as if he was organizing his thoughts, and then continued: "Old Yu, in the future you should not only think about buying land, but also think about buying land to build factories. Otherwise, after this wave of opportunities, you will have no chance anymore!" There was an unquestionable firmness in his tone, as if he was predicting an irreversible future.

Yu Guodong nodded in approval, his eyes flashing with deep thought. "Yes, now it seems like everyone is attracted by the smell of blood. Places like Shenzhen and Zhuhai are bustling with activity. Not only people from Hong Kong Island, but also Taiwanese, Malayan and Indonesian Chinese are pouring in. Some directly set up factories, while others, like me, start processing with supplied materials. They all want to get a piece of the pie in this spring breeze of reform."

"So," Zhong Yuemin said with a hint of unquestionable power, "you don't have to be proud of earning a few million a year. According to my opinion, you have to make at least tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions next year to be qualified. This is not just a game of numbers, but also a grasp of the opportunities of the times and a display of ability."

Yu Guodong felt a little toothache after hearing this, with shock and confusion in his heart. "Mr. Zhong, a few million is not enough? You know, even in the prosperous Hong Kong Island, earning hundreds of thousands a year is already good. Your goal really makes people excited and nervous!" He smiled bitterly, but he could not hide the eagerness in his eyes, as if Zhong Yuemin's words had ignited a fire in his heart.

Zhong Yuemin raised his lips to a meaningful smile, his eyes flashing with an unquestionable light. "Old Yu, you have to look at the long term. These days, when the policy is in full swing, gold is everywhere, and we have to rush to pick it up, right? Places like Shenzhen and Zhuhai are like boiling water now, and there are opportunities hidden in every bubble."

Zhong Yuemin paused, then patted Yu Guodong on the shoulder with an irresistible encouragement. "Old Yu, you have to believe that our generation is born at the right time to do great things. A few million is just the starting point, not the end, for you and me now. You have to think about why those people from Hong Kong Island, Taiwan, and even overseas Chinese flocked in? Because they saw the future, and saw that this place will become the world's factory and a treasure trove of wealth."

Yu Guodong rubbed his temples, with a bit of helplessness in his bitter smile. "Mr. Zhong, I understand what you said, but this is too big a step, I am unsure. A few million is already an astronomical figure in my eyes, tens of millions, hundreds of millions? That is simply..."

"It's just like a dream, isn't it?" Zhong Yuemin took over the conversation, but there was no trace of joking in his eyes. "But dreams are meant to be pursued. Old Yu, you have to believe in yourself and in this era. We are now like standing on the crest of a wave. We can either be knocked down by the waves, or use this force to rush to higher places."

Zhong Yue stood up and looked out the window at the thriving land, saying firmly, "Remember, opportunities always come to those who are prepared. What we are preparing for now is not only to buy land and build factories, but also to pave a golden road for our future selves."

Yu Guodong was silent for a moment, and finally stood up, with a new light in his eyes. "Mr. Zhong, you are right. I can't just be satisfied with the status quo."

After a while, Yu Guodong asked sincerely, "Mr. Zhong, I will follow your instructions on what to do."

Zhong Yuemin smiled slightly, his eyes revealing a bit of depth. "Look at those big entrepreneurs, such as Baochuan Wang and Li Chaoren, how did they do it? The key to their success is that they know how to let go and let professionals do professional things."

Upon hearing this, Yu Guodong couldn't help but shook his head, looking a little confused.

Seeing this, Zhong Yuemin sighed softly and continued, "You have hired so many people now. Are you keeping them for good looks? You don't need to do everything yourself. Whether it is flat management or pyramid management, you need to learn to delegate power. You personally manage the clothing OEM factories, shoe OEM factories, and even small matters such as shipping and customs declaration. Aren't you tired?"

There was a hint of helplessness in Zhong Yuemin's words. He knew that although he was not a management expert, he could see that there were problems with Yu Guodong's management style.

Therefore, Zhong Yuemin stopped being polite and directly pointed out the core of the problem. "That is to say, when you are too busy to handle it alone, you have to find a way to decentralize some of your burdens so that you can go into battle with a lighter load. After all, a person's ability and energy are very limited. You must learn to delegate power, but decentralization also has skills. You must see clearly what can be delegated and what cannot be delegated. The most important thing is to choose the right people for each project or stage. With the right people, your decentralization action can basically be completed. Remember what I said, managing less is often managing better. Do you understand what I mean?"

After listening to this, Yu Guodong nodded thoughtfully, as if he began to understand the deep meaning of Zhong Yuemin's words. "Okay, Mr. Zhong, I'll listen to you and try it when I get back."

After hearing this, Zhong Yuemin rolled his eyes helplessly. "It's not just a try, it's a must. Management is also a science. If you don't understand it, can you ask someone who does?"

Zhong Yuemin didn't care much about these management details before, always thinking that it was still early and he could take his time. But as the tide of the great era drew closer, he felt a growing sense of urgency.

Zhong Yuemin paused and continued, "Old Yu, you have to understand that we are not doing small things now, but doing a big business. A big business requires a big picture, a broad vision, and more importantly, scientific management. You can't control everything in your hands like before, that will only make you more and more tired, and your efficiency will not be high."

Yu Guodong was amused by Zhong Yuemin's rolling eyes, and then he said seriously, "Mr. Zhong, I understand. It's not just a try, it's a must. I will treat management as a science. If I don't understand, I will ask someone who does. Don't worry, I won't let you down again."

Zhong Yuemin looked at Yu Guodong's determined eyes, and the sense of urgency in his heart eased a little. He nodded and said earnestly, "Old Yu, the times are changing, and we have to change with them. Management is not a trivial matter, it is related to the survival of the company. When you go back, make a good plan to see which links need to be improved and which people need to be invited in. Remember, don't be reluctant to spend that little money, because you can't catch a wolf without risking your child."

Yu Guodong took a deep breath, as if he was taking in all of Zhong Yuemin's words. He nodded and replied firmly, "Mr. Zhong, I understand. I will follow your instructions and will definitely take the company to the next level."

Yu Guodong had just left, and Zhong Yuemin was just thinking about being lazy and lying on the chair for a while to enjoy the rare leisure time.

Unexpectedly, two "uninvited guests" Li Kuiyong and Gao Songshan came in with a thick stack of account books, instantly disrupting Zhong Yuemin's "lazy plan".

Seeing the two people's "sincere" looks, Zhong Yuemin smiled helplessly and said, "Are you two too idle to do anything? You brought the account books to me."

Li Kuiyong put the account book on the table, pushed it in front of Zhong Yuemin, and said seriously, "Yuemin, I haven't reconciled the accounts with you since I came back. Take a look, you said that brothers should settle accounts clearly."

Gao Songshan chuckled and added, "Yuemin, this is Zui Xiang Lou's account book for a year. We have to settle the accounts carefully."

Zhong Yuemin sighed, rubbed his temples, and looked at the account book in front of him helplessly. He knew that Li Kuiyong and Gao Songshan's account books were always "unique" and a headache.

"Kuiyong, Mr. Gao, your account book is simply a running account! How can this be acceptable? Finance is not just about keeping accounts, it has to reflect the business conditions of the company and help us make correct decisions." Zhong Yuemin said earnestly.

Li Kuiyong and Gao Songshan looked at each other, both a little embarrassed. They knew that their account books were indeed not professional enough, but they did not expect that it would cause Zhong Yuemin such a headache.

"Yuemin, we know we were wrong. We will pay attention in the future and try to make the account books more standardized." Li Kuiyong said sincerely.

Gao Songshan also nodded. "Yes, Yuemin. We must learn more in the future and strive to make the account book more professional."

Zhong Yuemin looked at them and thought to himself. He knew that if he wanted these people to truly understand the importance of finance, he had to work hard on the fundamentals. So he decided to teach them a lesson.

"Kuiyong, Songshan, you have to understand that finance is the barometer of a company's operations. A standardized account book can not only reflect the company's income and expenditure, but also help us analyze the company's debt repayment ability, equity structure, and even estimate the degree of utilization of debt funds. Therefore, finance is not a trivial matter, it is related to the survival of the company."

At present, only Yu Guodong, Li Wenbo and Takehara Masaki can achieve financial standardization. After all, there are professional financial teams and accounting personnel. Once the financial statements are taken, they can analyze the debt repayment ability of the enterprise, analyze the structure of the enterprise's equity, and estimate the degree of utilization of debt funds.

But when Zhong Yuemin looked at the account books of Li Kuiyong and others, his scalp would only tingle.

Zhong Yuemin closed the account book and said helplessly, "I won't read it anymore. Go and have fun and don't waste your time in front of me." He really couldn't stand this chaotic and disordered account book and felt that reading it would only waste his time.

Li Kuiyong laughed. "If you don't want to read it, forget it. I'll send the money to you tomorrow." There was no dissatisfaction or disappointment on his face, as if he had expected Zhong Yuemin's rejection. His smile was still bright, as warm as the sun, making people feel his optimism and open-mindedness deep in his heart.

After a few people chatted for a while, Gao Songshan suddenly asked curiously, "Li Kuiyong, how do you feel about your two years in the south?"

Li Kuiyong frowned slightly, lost in memories. After a while, he slowly said, "To be honest, when I first went there, I was like a fool. There were all kinds of people there, cheating, stealing and robbing. Many outsiders who went to Guangzhou for the first time to buy goods were often the most easily deceived, because they had no idea where to buy goods, and they didn't even know that RMB could not be used to buy goods."

Hearing this, Zhong Yuemin couldn't help but sigh and said with emotion, "At the forefront of reform and opening up, openness is real, but chaos is equally real. In such an environment, opportunities and challenges coexist. We must always remain vigilant to seize opportunities and deal with various risks."

After listening to this, Gao Songshan remained silent, just sitting quietly, with a thoughtful look in his eyes. He seemed to be weighing the pros and cons in his mind, as if he was considering something important.

Li Kuiyong looked at Zhong Yuemin and was filled with emotion. "Yuemin, you are really far-sighted! You collected so many antiques in the past few years, and now these things have become very valuable. Many people can't find enough foreign exchange to purchase goods, so they can only search for antiques everywhere, and then find some Hong Kong people to help exchange them for foreign exchange, and then use the foreign exchange to buy a large number of goods, and then take them back and resell them, and they can make a lot of money. However, some people will be deceived badly. When many people go to buy color TVs, washing machines and other products, they only see the prototypes and hand over the advance payment in a daze. As a result, they find that they have been deceived and have no place to cry. I have seen too many such things."

When Zhong Yuemin heard what Li Kuiyong said, the corners of his mouth slightly lifted, revealing a faint smile. He knew in his heart that his decision to collect antiques was a wise one. Nowadays, the value of antiques is gradually being recognized and valued by more and more people, and they have become an extremely precious symbol of wealth.

Zhong Yuemin sighed. "Today, Guangzhou and Shenzhen have become distribution centers for goods, not only attracting products from Hong Kong Island, but also many manufacturers in the mainland have shipped washing machines, refrigerators, color TVs and other items to Guangzhou, just to earn foreign exchange. But these manufacturers have a common requirement, that is, only accept foreign exchange, which undoubtedly gives those who hold a large amount of foreign exchange more business opportunities."

Li Kuiyong nodded and agreed. "Yes! Some people rely on the large amount of foreign exchange in their hands to first buy a batch of goods, and then resell them to those who do not have foreign exchange, earning the difference between foreign exchange and commodity prices. In this way, they can make money easily and save the hardship of long journeys."

Zhong Yuemin finally noticed Gao Songshan's abnormality. He waved his hand in front of Gao Songshan's eyes and asked with concern, "Mr. Gao, what are you thinking about? You are so obsessed."

Gao Songshan sighed, frowned, and his eyes revealed a bit of worry. "Alas! It's so chaotic over there, I don't know how my girl is doing there?"

Zhong Yuemin was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect Gao Yue to go to the Special Zone. "When did Gao Yue go to the Special Zone?"

"It's been about half a year!" Gao Songshan replied, his tone revealing a bit of helplessness. "I don't know what she is thinking, and there is nothing I can do to stop her."

After listening to this, Zhong Yuemin fell silent.
