During the Spring Festival, there is no news about Zheng Yaoyang in Xiangjiang, just like there is no Jerusalem in the West, it is like there is no Chinese New Year flavor, even the smell of firecrackers in the air is much lighter.
The richest man in Hong Kong for three consecutive terms and the newly crowned richest man in Asia has been disappearing for the past six months, which has made many media in Hong Kong very distressed.
With the new year and new atmosphere, all the KPIs achieved last year have returned to zero. They are eager to get Zheng Yaoyang's help.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, word suddenly spread that Zheng Yaoyang's private plane appeared at Kai Tak Airport.
Countless paparazzi, like sharks smelling blood, rushed to the airport to get first-hand valuable information.
When they arrived, the building was already deserted, which only added some lively atmosphere to the New Year at the airport.
A black Cadillac left the airport's dedicated passage early.
Seeing Zheng Yaoyang yawning all the time, Zhou Xiaolin asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
"What can I do? I just need to sleep more."
Zheng Yaoyang spent a lot of money in order for his plan to succeed. The price he paid was that Zhou Xiaolin became radiant, but he looked depressed.
At the same time, we also came to the conclusion that men and women are different and have different structures, so sometimes we have to be convinced.
Zhou Xiaolin always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't pinpoint what was wrong.
Zheng Yaoyang knew that she was suspicious, so he smiled and quickly changed the subject: "Love is a nourishing medicine for women. This is true, Xiaolin, you have become beautiful."
Zhou Xiaolin blushed and gave an angry look: "Go back and have a good rest. I'm going to work."
Watching her enter the Universal Building, Zheng Yaoyang yawned again and ordered: "Go to Fuxing in East Tsim Sha Tsui."
He was very sleepy and wanted to go back to sleep, but Chen Yongjian and Duan Yongping came to visit and had to see them.
After all, they only see each other a few times throughout the year, and he is also curious about how the little bully is developing now.
The vice president of the bank was responsible for receiving them, and they kept chatting in the company's reception room.
After waiting for two hours, Zheng Yaoyang arrived late. He smiled and said, "Sorry, it must have been a long wait."
Chen Yongjian laughed and said, "We have just arrived."
Zheng Yaoyang glanced at the vice president of the bank. He was also very understanding and said with a smile on his face: "Sheng Zheng, I will go and get busy first. You can give me any instructions."
"Go ahead."
Zheng Yaoyang hummed without raising his head, and Chen Yongjian smiled with a smile on his face and congratulated him: "Congratulations, Mr. Zheng, for becoming the richest man in Asia."
One person was able to ascend to heaven with chickens and dogs. It turned out that Yihua had a problem with Xiaoba's kingdom because he was transferred to the people, and even used official channels to try to suppress their development and gain their equity.
But since Zheng Yaoyang became the richest man in Asia, they didn't dare to make any small moves.
"They are all just false names."
Zheng Yaoyang smiled calmly and invited the two of them to the tea room to brew an authentic Chaoshan Gongfu tea.
Duan Yongping was not as good at flattering as Chen Yongjian. As soon as his butt was firmly seated, he took out the information: "Mr. Zheng, this is the revenue of Xiaobawang last year."
"Let me see."
Zheng Yaoyang looked at Chen Yongjian from the corner of his eye and found that his face was ugly, but he had to laugh and said: "Yes, yes, Mr. Zheng, you should take a look first."
He is the general manager of the company, and logically the report should be submitted by him. Duan Yongping's actions are obviously challenging his authority.
With a smile in his eyes, Zheng Yaoyang said that the best way to break up a pair of partners is to let them do business together.
Especially in a business that makes money, they share hardships and wealth, and the gap between the two is deeper than he imagined.
Zheng Yaoyang looked through the financial information and was surprised to find: "Last year's output value reached 136 million yuan? There is still a profit of 28 points?"
The issuance of Hong Kong dollars depends on the amount of U.S. dollar reserves with the central bank, so whether it is now or in the future, the Hong Kong-US exchange rate will basically hover at 7.8.
But the RMB is different. Last year, in order to speed up the deepening of reforms, more than 80 billion were directly issued. The current exchange rate with the Hong Kong dollar has dropped to about 1:1.7.
Xiaobawang's annual output value is 136 million yuan, which is equivalent to 231 million Hong Kong dollars, with a profit of 64 million. Looking at Xiangjiang, it can be regarded as a medium-sized enterprise.
Chen Yongjian smiled and complimented: "This is also your wisdom and talent. Since the advertisement was placed on CCTV, all over the country have actively sought agents, and sales have been rising steadily."
"We plan to win the advertising rights for another year this year, no matter how much money we spend."
"Please also tell Mr. Fang that we would like to renew the endorsement contract with him for another year."
The game console was renamed as a learning machine, broadcast by CCTV, and endorsed by Jackie Chan. This boxing combo is the best.
Throughout last year, their Xiaobawang Learning Machine was the brightest star in the Lingnan region.
According to rumors, if the big shot who is currently inspecting the city wants to go south, their little overlord will be the key enterprise to inspect in the Pearl River Delta.
"It's a small matter. I'll just say hello to Jackie Chan when the time comes."
Zheng Yaoyang looked at Duan Yongping: "Yongping, how was the development of the reading machine last time?"
Duan Yongping was very excited that Zheng Yaoyang could still remember this incident. He hurriedly took out a thick tablet from his backpack: "Mr. Zheng, the research and development has been successful. Why don't you give it a try first?"
"How to use it?"
"Install the battery, open the tablet, insert the SD card that comes with the textbook, and it's ready to use."
Duan Yongping skillfully assembled the tablet, which is almost the size of a keyboard when spread out on both sides.
Zheng Yaoyang clicked on the textbook.
The machine made a sound: "Hello, hello."
"I'm fine, Ai Mo Fa Yi..."
Zheng Yaoyang raised his eyebrows and was surprised: "How many English words can be stored on a built-in card?"
"The normal capacity is 80 pieces. We have produced ten models in total, with a total of 800 commonly used English words."
"How much does it cost?"
"About 220 yuan."
The most expensive thing about a point-and-shoot machine is the memory card, and the most difficult technical problem to solve is the trigger device. It requires very few parts, so it is cheaper than a game console.
Zheng Yaoyang: "The cost is 220. Let's give it to the agent as 300. The agent sells it for 350. There should be a market."
Point-of-view machines are like game consoles. The main body can be sold cheaper and profits can be made by selling built-in cards.
Duan Yongping showed excitement and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Mr. Zheng, I think so too."
"Has it been put into mass production?"
Duan Yongping said nothing and looked at Chen Yongjian. Chen Yongjian said bravely: "Not yet."
Zheng Yaoyang asked: "Why not mass produce? If the quality is better, we can even go abroad."
Xiaobawang's game console has a copyright dispute with Nintendo and is destined to be sold only in the mainland for the rest of its life.
But point readers are different. As long as the price is right and the quality is acceptable, there will be a market in Asia.
Chen Yongjian hesitated and thought for a long time: "The agent is too slow to pay back, and he owes money to suppliers and banks, so he is temporarily unable to allocate funds to open a production line for new products."
"Is the company out of money?"
Zheng Yaoyang stared at Chen Yongjian for a long time. Chen Yongjian felt guilty and could only bite the bullet and said: "The company does not have much funds."
Lack of money was only part of the reason. The most important thing was that he had always looked down on the reading machine and Duan Yongping. He just kept the game cartridges without researching and developed some kind of reading machine.
But he didn't expect that Duan Yongping would actually say it in front of Zheng Yaoyang, and Zheng Yaoyang was also very optimistic about the market of point reading machines, which obviously embarrassed him.
Duan Yongping, a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, keeps talking about repaying kindness. Is this what he calls repaying kindness?
Zheng Yaoyang looked at the company's financial report and suddenly had an idea: "How about letting Xiaobawang go public?"
Chen Yongjian was so stunned that he even felt short of breath: "Mr. Zheng, if I remember correctly, the Shanghai Stock Exchange does not seem to have issued a new prospectus announcement recently."
Two months ago, the legend of the eight-part stock market on the Shanghai Stock Exchange was unknown to everyone in China.
He holds 41.4% of the shares and is the second largest shareholder. If Xiaobawang goes public, not only will his shares be liquidated, but his social status will also rise.
After all, there are only eight listed companies in the country, and he is about to become the head of the ninth listed company. Just thinking about it is so exciting that it can make you suffocate.
Zheng Yaoyang smiled at the corners of his eyes: "Why do you want to go to the Shanghai Stock Exchange? Isn't it good to be listed on the Hong Kong stock market?"
The annual output value of Xiaobawang is 231 million yuan and the net profit is 64 million yuan, which already exceeds more than half of the Hong Kong stocks.
What's more, it also has a huge mainland market, and it can easily reach a price-to-earnings ratio of ten times or even fifteen times.
The first mainland company to be listed on the Hong Kong stock market was Tsingtao Brewery two years later.
If Zheng Yaoyang can be the initiator of H-shares and successfully promote Xiaobawang's listing in Hong Kong stocks, he will be able to control the only channel for mainland companies to list in Hong Kong.
In this way, Fuxing Bank's funds can enter the Hang Seng Index at the lowest cost, and at the same time, it can cut off the development ceiling of HSBC Bank.
