On the 9th of the month, the Kitchen God Festival is still available, and there is still a day before the New Year's Eve of the 19th RU.

At 3:00 pm, Hong Kong, Kai Tak Airport.

Chen Chong looked at the middle-aged man in a black suit, medium-sized figure, dark skin and firm face in front of him, and asked, "What is this?"

"This is the driver arranged by President Li, who came to the company yesterday to report it." Gu Liwei said in a low voice unnatural manner: "He doesn't speak much, and I don't know what his name is."

"Hello, Mr. Chen." The middle-aged man introduced himself in Cantonese: "My name is Dai Aijun. Miss Li asked me to be a driver and be responsible for your security work."

What a name with a background in the revolutionary era...

Very military-style temperament and tone...

Chen Chong was confused, but the airport was full of people and was not a place to speak. He nodded, handed him the luggage lever on his hand, and said, "I'll bother you."

Dai Aijun took his luggage without saying a word, followed Shen Chong and walked towards the parking lot.

"Vivian, Zhang Zhengfu, have you given a letter?"

"No, I will call him every day as you told me, and he kept saying that he still needs to consider it." Gu Liwei paused for a moment and said, "I asked in private. H seemed to give Mr. Zhang a raise, with an annual salary of 00,000 yuan, plus the position of assistant general manager, and he is fully responsible for the news department."

"Uncle Shao Liu is actually willing to spend a lot of money." Chen Chong sighed and said, "But Uncle Liu is still too stingy, only 00,000 yuan."

After getting into the back seat of the car, Chen Chong said, "Maybe Zhang Zhengfu thinks our temple is too small. Please contact him again and make an appointment, and I'll invite him to have tea."

"Okay." Gu Liwei sat in the passenger seat, took out her notepad and looked at it, and said with her head tilted, "Mr. Chen, before the Spring Festival, your daily schedule is full."

"I am eager to seek talent now, and I want to visit the cottage and seek great wise men three times." Chen Chong said with a smile: "Whenever Zhang Zhengfu has time, I will invite him one day. Even if he goes to Shiao in the middle of the night, I will accompany him."

"Mr. Chen." Dai Aijun asked after they finished talking, "Are you going to the company or home?"

“Go to the company.”

Dai Aijun is skilled in driving skills and knows the roads in the city of Hong Kong very well. The car drives steadily and the turns are smooth, making Chen Chong even more curious about his identity.

After driving out of the undersea tunnel and entering Wan Chai, Chen Chong said in front of the alley behind a building: "Brother Jun, stop by the side of the road, I'll get a bowl of beef offal to suffice your stomach."

"Just just call me Ajun." Dai Aijun parked his car on the side of the road while speaking, and said, "Mr. Chen, I'll go buy it."

"No, no." Chen Chong put on brown sunglasses, pushed open the car door, and said, "You're here to wait, I'll be fine soon."

Gu Liwei got off the car with a wink of eyes, followed him, walked into the alley, and came to a small shop with the words "He Ji Niu Zao". It was not dinner time at this time, and there was no customer in the store of seven or eight square meters.

"Mr. Chen, it's been a long time since we arrived." The boss stepped forward and greeted him attentively, "Or it's the same?"

"I went to Taiwan a few days ago and just came back." Chen Chong stood at the door and didn't go in. After replying, he asked, "Vivian, do you want it?"

"I don't need it anymore." Gu Liwei frowned and said, "I can't eat onion and garlic."

"That's the same, I'll have a bowl of beef offals, a large portion." After Chen Chong finished his meal, he walked through the alley and walked to the other side. He stood at the intersection and stared at the large advertising poster posted on the wall on the opposite street for a while, then walked back and said, "Zhang Yonglin is so terrifying. He actually played the edge ball and used my name as an advertising spokesperson."

He parked the car and ate croquettes. On the one hand, he was indeed hungry. On the other hand, he was to watch advertisements. From Kai Tak Airport to Central, there were golden video tape rental advertisements posted along the way. On the advertisement, a painted cartoon God of Wealth who looked like Shen Chong, wearing a money cap and holding a video recorder in both hands, surrounded by dozens of ingots with the names of classic movies written on it.

"The New Year is auspicious, and the God of Wealth will send you a happy Spring Festival. Anyone who comes to Galaxy Image Company to register as a member will receive a free luxury video recorder worth thousands of Hong Kong dollars. World brands such as Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba, etc., and you can choose from it. The total number is 100,000 units, first come first served, and it will be delivered on time. Make an appointment in advance. Please call the free number..."

Galaxy Image obtained the name of a videotape rental company because it involves gangs and other forces. It will operate as an independent company and then go public after the scale is expanded. This channel business does not require absolute control. As long as it holds film and television content resources, no one can make any tricks.

"Assistant Zhang is full of energy and full of energy, and has the ancient style of Dayu controlling the flood." Gu Liwei said with a smile: "It is said that he has lived in the office recently. Someone saw him brushing his teeth in the company's bathroom in the morning."

"The annual salary of 00,000 yuan seems to be in vain." Chen Chong took the beef noodle handed over by his boss and said, "That shop will not open next Monday. How many people are calling to make an appointment now?"

"The figure reported by Assistant Zhang yesterday was a little more than 45,000."

“How long has this advertisement been posted?”

"I started doing it on the 5th of the month, and today is the fourth day."

"That's good." Chen Chong said while eating beef offal: "This deal is definitely sure."

In order to promote video recorders, Shen Chong used the contract machine methods commonly used by telecom operators in later generations to bundle hardware and services and send video recorders for free, but he had to become a member, pay a deposit, and sign a monthly guaranteed rental contract.

This kind of commercial method that only appeared more than ten years later has obvious benefits. First, it takes advantage of the public's greed for small gains to quickly expand the market capacity of video recorders. After all, it is necessary to buy a video recorder. It costs 80 or 90 yuan to rent a video tape, and only 10 yuan for rent. Of course, it is appropriate to rent a video tape. Anyway, if you want to rent a video tape, why not sign a contract and get a video recorder for free?

Secondly, videotape rental is an industry with very low threshold. You can open it by buying dozens of videotapes. This contract form that uses both soft and hard can be used, and after becoming a member, it will be tied up by Galaxy Image for a few years, and competitors cannot poach customers.

In the mid-1980s, the videotape rental market in Hong Kong was very chaotic, with four or five companies competing. For example, Xinyi City, relying on the many hit movies, started a videotape rental company, signed harsh contracts with customers, deliberately suppressing their opponents, which made people angry and resentful. Because the competition was too fierce, all the companies were eventually ruined.

Chen Chong wants to build a videotape rental and distribution platform similar to Apple Ituu, and he does not want any disruptors, so he will lose any competitor.

Third, the deposit system will quickly recover funds. The tens of millions of investment invested in advance by buying a video recorder will be quickly brought back. When the underworld funds enter, Chen Chong can withdraw and significantly reduce the shares in Galaxy Image, and instead cooperate with them by providing content resources to ensure their innocence.

This kind of business method has many benefits. In the 1970s and 1980s, no one thought about it, but when it comes to realization, there is a big problem that cannot be solved, so no one has ever used it on a large scale - that is, the rapid exchange of information.

The most important thing about telecom companies in later generations was that the Internet was very developed at that time, and information could be easily interacted with. The package contracts signed in Shanghai could still be used when they arrived in Beijing.

In 19RU, in addition to banks and some large institutions and ordinary merchants, let alone Shanghai and Beijing, membership cards purchased at Tsim Sha Tsui stores cannot be used when they arrive at Causeway Bay stores and cannot be used. If it is inconvenient to swipe cards, the applicability and user stickiness of the package contract will be greatly reduced.

Chen Chong dared to do this, and was also using Hong Kong for experiments. Hong Kong has a small area and convenient transportation. He placed an Apple 11 in each flagship store, which stores all member information, and then customized a card swiping machine with China Unicom to record data. After the business ends every day, he uses a disk to send the data to the company headquarters for summary and settlement, and updates the consumption records of all member cards, so as to ensure that members can consume in any of their stores every day.

Another advantage of performing data summary every day is that it can quickly grasp the market trend and track customer preferences, which not only facilitates rental stores to adjust purchases, but also in turn tell the production company what themes the audience is interested in recently.

After the experiment was mature in Hong Kong, we would go to Taiwan, Southeast Asia, Japan, and the United States, and replicate one city after another, and then we would be invincible.

After eating the beef offal in a sensation, Chen Chong stood up and was about to pay, but he heard the stall owner say, "Mr. Chen, sign me, I won't charge you money."

Chen Chong was stunned, Gu Liwei pursed her lips and smiled.

"The newspaper says that Mr. Chen is the God of Wealth." The boss wiped his hands and said with a silly smile: "The things you have used are rich."

What's this? He's not here for midnight snacks once or twice, but the boss has never said such a thing before

Seeing that the boss was determined, Chen Chong was amused and laughed and cried, so he asked Gu Liwei to take out her notepad, wrote a note of "Hong Kong's No. 1 Baby", signed her name, and then tore it off, handed it to the boss with the money, and said, "My handwriting is ugly and not valuable. Please take the money for the meal, otherwise I won't come next time."

"Thank you Mr. Chen, thank you Mr. Chen."

After walking out of the alley and back to the car, Shen Chong asked, "Vivian, what's going on?"

"Mr. Chen, you said in Ming Pao Weekly last year that you sold your ancestral house for 450,000 yuan to make your first pot of gold, right?"

"Yes." Chen Chong said inexplicably: "That's all a year ago."

"Two days ago, someone bought the house you passed down from 1.88 million yuan." Gu Liwei looked back at him and said with a smile: "The newspaper said that the buyer had found a Feng Shui master to see it, saying that it was the place where the God of Wealth came, and everything you used was full of wealth."

Chen Chong was stunned when he heard this. He had only lived in the house for one month and had no feelings for it. After moving away, he never cared about it. Mrs. Wenrenjie was going to have a child, and he was fooled by Chen Chong to go to the United States. He had never moved in and remained the same.

I didn’t expect that it would have appreciated 4 times in just one year. How great would it be if it could have sold 1.88 million last year...

After a while, Chen Chong sighed and said, "The birth certificate is clearly written. I was born at Mary Hospital. My home address was Hong Kong Island at that time, and it was far away from Guantang."

"The master said that you are not the reincarnation of the God of Wealth, you are possessed by the God of Wealth." Gu Liwei smiled with her lips and said in a gossip: "When she possessed her, her spirit was leaking, and all the residents of the entire building received favors. So last year, all the residents' income in that building was at least doubled compared to before."
