Chapter 111: So what if Li Chaoren? Hong Kong Island, Hutchison Holdings. Ninth floor, conference room. "Tomorrow will be the first round of bidding for the Canton Road Police Quarters. If we are able to win this project, we will still be a little short of manpower given our current situation." "All departments must step up and ensure that construction can start immediately once the project is in hand." Lin Zehao sat in the main seat, looking at the plan while speaking. Facing the lecture from their boss, everyone looked extremely serious, and kept taking notes on the notebooks with their pens in their hands. No one dared to slack off. This is not only because of Lin Zehao’s identity as the boss, but more importantly, everyone knows that their boss is also the leader of the four major gangs in Hong Kong Island and Shing Wo. If you mess up your job while working in other companies, the worst that can happen is you get fired. But at Hutchison Industries, you might even get fired! Fortunately, the boss Lin Zehao has always been generous. As long as the work is done well, he will not be stingy with money. The company's salaries and bonuses have always been among the best in the industry.
Since squeezing out Hung Hing and taking over the real estate business of the Li & Fung Group, the construction company has been developing better and better and has more and more workers. As the scale expanded, Lin Zehao was naturally not satisfied with being a second-party. He wanted to develop his own project. The comprehensive shopping mall is still under planning and it is unrealistic to start it in a short time. The Canton Road Police Quarters is definitely the perfect opportunity. Not only can it serve as a startup training project for the company, but it can also make a lot of money. The most important thing is that if history follows, this project would eventually be won by Li Chaoren. Now that Lin Zehao has the ability, of course he has to fight for it! "Boss Lin, we have made a plan. Once our company wins the bid, we will be able to recruit more than a thousand people in the first place, and we will definitely be able to guarantee the start time and efficiency." "But the competition in this bidding will be very fierce. All the famous real estate companies in Hong Kong Island have intervened, hoping to get a piece of the pie." "Not only Li Chaoren's Cheung Kong Holdings, but Henderson Land Development has also expressed interest many times. Not counting other companies, the competitiveness of the two companies alone cannot be underestimated." The person who spoke was the head of Hutchison Construction Company, Chen Qifan. A top student in the Department of Business and Management at the Island University of Hong Kong, he previously worked as a senior executive in other real estate companies. After being introduced by Li Wenbin, he was poached by Lin Zehao at a high price. He has good abilities and is very loyal. After all, with Lin Zehao's current status, he has no way of coming to the company to work all day. He is only responsible for controlling the overall direction, so most of the daily affairs are handled by Chen Qifan. As long as Lin Zehao controls the two important departments of personnel and finance, there will be no turning back. "Don't worry about that. Since I dare to bid, I have a certain degree of confidence." "They have advantages, and we have advantages too. We are all good at different things, and in the end it all comes down to who has the better methods." Lin Zehao put down the documents in his hand, with a faint smile on his face, and his tone was as confident as usual. Everyone who was more or less worried, when they saw their boss's extremely confident look, they also held their heads high and their worries were swept away. So what about Lee Chao-ren? He is just a defeated general who is trying to sell out Seoul. As early as a year ago, Lin Zehao had actually contacted Li Chaoren. To be more precise, it was he who ruined Li Chaoren's good deeds.
At that time, under the control of Li Chaoren, Cheung Kong Industries intended to secretly acquire Hutchison Whampoa, a subsidiary of HSBC. Because of the failure of the previous acquisition of Jardine Matheson, Li Chaoren classified this matter as top secret, fearing that the information would be leaked and lead to the failure of the acquisition. But just when everything was ready and the negotiations began, newspapers in Hong Kong began to report the incident frantically. And these were not just hearsay reports. All the details were described very realistically, as if they were right at the negotiation scene. This confused Li Chaoren, who immediately suspected that there was a spy from another competitor, and immediately began to investigate at lightning speed. However, despite all his efforts, he still could not find the culprit, and the company was in a panic, and several executives resigned. In the end, Li Chaoren could only suppress his doubts temporarily and continue to acquire Hutchison Whampoa. However, history has proven countless times that once such a large-scale acquisition is leaked, the difficulty will increase exponentially, especially since Hutchison Whampoa is still a British-owned company. It is even more difficult in the current social context of Hong Kong Island. As expected, although HSBC did want to sell Hutchison Whampoa, under the increasingly fierce public opinion storm in the UK, even the Governor of Hong Kong had to step in personally and finally had to temporarily stop the sale. Although Li Chaoren’s name contains the word “Superman” and he also wears the same black-framed glasses, unfortunately he is not the one who wears his underwear outside. Even though there were several attempts during that period, the final result was a failed acquisition, the share price of Cheung Kong Holdings plummeted, and the originally established development path was directly overturned. This also means that the true strength of Cheung Kong Industries is far from being as terrifying as it seems today. That is to say, it only has some influence in the real estate industry, and its tentacles have not extended to other industries at all. Under this premise, if Lin Zehao operates properly, he may be able to fight! After Lin Zehao decided on the general direction, he handed the meeting over to Chen Qifan and left the meeting room with Luo Tianhong and Gao Lihong. According to the scheduled schedule, the bidding round for the demolition plan of the Canton Road Police Dormitory will start in the afternoon. There is still some time before the start, and Lin Zehao uses this time to summon Tattooed Cong and Golden Retriever. "Hello, Brother Hao." As soon as Tattooed Cong and Golden Retriever entered the room, they bowed respectfully to Lin Zehao and greeted him in unison. From their reserved movements, it can be seen how powerful Lin Zehao is in the hearts of his brothers in the society. "Sit wherever you like." "If you want to drink anything, you can tell Ah Hong." Lin Zehao never likes to put on airs when facing his own people, and he pointed at Gao Lihong standing beside him and said. "A glass of water. I can do it myself." "I just want a glass of water, thank you." Facing the dragon head who was as cheerful as spring breeze, although Tattoo Cong and Golden Retriever were no longer nervous, they still knew what was going on and were very polite to Gao Lihong. Tattooed Cong walked to the water dispenser and filled two glasses of water. Are you kidding? Can these people order the woman around Longtou around as they please? Maybe Lin Zehao didn’t think so much, but as subordinates, they must put themselves in the right position! If you're out there in the gang, it doesn't matter if you can't fight, and it doesn't matter if you're not smart, but if you don't have a clear mind, you'll die faster than anyone else. "You should already know about Taishan and Zhatouhui's affairs, so I won't waste any more words."
"What do you two think?" Lin Zehao threw them a box of Marlboro and asked with a smile on his face. "Brother Hao, we two will follow the leader's orders and will never betray our fans again!" "It's just that neither of us has worked in other industries, so we don't know which industry is easier to make money in. We hope that Brother Hao can show us a way." Tattooed Cong and Golden Retriever had already reached a consensus and were determined to follow Lin Zehao to the end and would never betray him! They believed that based on the character of their leader, he would definitely show them a clear path. Today is more than 11,000. Friends who have monthly tickets still hope to feed a few. Thank you very much (End of this chapter)
