Chapter 342: Charlie's Cleverness (For Heart, Rain, Love
After crossing the Zhouhaiwan Bridge, Charlie's taxi entered the jurisdiction of Yongzhen and continued southward. After another 18 kilometers of driving, he got off at a local place called Hongpu.
"Thanks!"
After getting out of the car, Charlie said politely to the driver. The taxi passed by him, and he looked at the surrounding environment. At this scene, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
He sorted out the expensive tailor-made suit he was wearing. This suit cost him tens of thousands of soft girl coins. He came to China because there were more opportunities here than in the West.
However, Charlie came to China for several years without success. There was a problem with the visa, and he was frustrated and wanted to return to North America. If he hadn't met Jay at the critical moment and persuaded him to stay, he would not be where he is today.
In just over a year, he has become a millionaire in North America or a multi-millionaire in China.
He was very glad that he met Jay when he was most frustrated in his life. This land really has more development opportunities than the west, and Charlie can be considered a successful person today.
But he was not satisfied. With the development of Paopao Company, the rise of his worth was accompanied by the increase of ambition.
If he had dreams before but dared not think about them, now he still has dreams but dares to think about them and dare to do them. His dream now is that one day Paopao Company can be listed on the Nasdaq and become a company serving the world.
Well-known multinational companies.
Charlie's goals are big, but he is also very aware of his current situation. He knows that there is little chance of this trip, but he is not afraid of failure. The past few years since he came to China have been so miserable that he was once kicked out by his landlord.
There can be no worse situation now than then.
After calming down his thoughts, Charlie cheered up and began to observe the surrounding environment.
This is the second time he has come to Yongzhen, but only the locals know best that earth-shaking changes have taken place here. The place in front of him is called Hongpu District, and the most intuitive feeling he has is that of a hot construction tide. These scenes look like
In his eyes, there are countless opportunities.
Indeed, it is not just him, but thousands of other people think so. Yongzhen has become an emerging place of opportunity. Today’s floating population has exceeded 500,000, and job advertisements are everywhere.
Factory buildings are rising from the ground one after another.
But Charlie came to Yongzhen this time to get a bigger opportunity, even though it was a slim chance.
Charlie naturally conducted an in-depth investigation and knew that this is the center of the CSAC industry cluster. Mainland news media hailed it as "Tin Town", while Western media hailed it as "Oriental Silicon Valley". These praises all illustrate the future of Yongzhen.
Endless opportunities.
Putting away his emotions, Charlie opened the navigation application on his smartphone, quickly established the route, and started heading to Hutoujiao in the southwest direction. It only took about ten minutes to walk there. Hutoujiao was the place to dock as soon as he left.
mouth.
Charlie knew that the new headquarters of Coastline Group was on Sangzhou Island, about 2 kilometers away from the sea in the west. Employees of Coastline Company would take yachts to commute to the company through Hutoujiao. When he went to attend the 2.0 press conference, he also came from Hutoujiao.
Those who used to work as yachts in Toujiao also know that Coastline Group is spending huge sums of money to build an undersea tunnel from the west coast of Yongzhen to Sangzhou Island.
They are all in Hutoujiao.
…
Shoreline Corporation Security Department.
"Boss, there is a foreigner wandering around the berth, sneaking around. I think his motive is not pure." In the backstage monitoring room, a security officer on duty immediately noticed the foreigner.
Surprisingly it was Charlie.
The security officer on duty is actually from the Ministry of National Security. A large part of the security system within the Coastline Group is from the Ministry of National Security. To put it bluntly, their true identities are agents, and they are all good at counter-espionage.
A master of counter-reconnaissance techniques.
"Keep an eye on him and find out who this person is."
In the background monitoring center, a technician could be seen sliding out a holographic floating screen in front of him. The display panel clearly showed Charlie's picture. After some skillful operation, he immediately started to enter a quick index match for his photos.
…
Outside Hutoujiao, Charlie was carrying a briefcase and looked at his watch. It was already time to get off work.
Charlie looked up towards the coastline, and he suddenly felt refreshed, because he saw the shadow of a boat heading towards the end of the lake. Most of them were medium-sized yachts.
After sorting out his attire again and making sure it was OK, Charlie walked towards Hutoujiao. After a while, he saw a warning sign on the side of the road. He hesitated for a moment, but in the end he gritted his teeth and continued to move forward.
In less than two minutes, three motorcycles appeared on the road from nowhere and quickly intercepted Charlie. Six uniformed security guards got off their motorcycles and headed straight for Charlie.
I couldn't help but feel my heart tighten.
"This is a controlled area, but you are not allowed to break in without permission." A man in his thirties with a resolute face spoke fluent English to Charlie.
Charlie quickly calmed down, and then said with a smile in fluent Chinese: "I know, oh, I am Charlie Jones, the co-founder and CEO of Paopao Company. I also said during the press conference
I attended and was lucky enough to witness that great press conference. I think..."
He introduced and explained himself calmly and methodically, and quickly took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to the security guard who asked the question. The latter took it and looked at it.
"What are you doing here?" the security guard asked. To be honest, he has met hundreds of CEOs, not to mention hundreds. This CEO of Paopao Company has no impression at all, and he is not the head of a big company.
Man, after all, CEOs have been everywhere in the past two years.
"I hope to have the opportunity to interview the head of Coral Island Technology about an important PHC business. Of course, it would be the greatest honor to meet Mr. Ye Hua." Charlie said unhurriedly, if the security guard can report
Going up is the best thing.
"Understood!" The security guard responded by tapping the wireless communication device on the ear. After ending the communication, he immediately looked at Charlie again: "Do you have an appointment?"
"Uh... we don't have this at the moment." Charlie hesitated and said truthfully. If he could make an appointment, would he still come here like this? Then he quickly explained: "But because time is tight, so..."
"Sorry sir, if you don't have an appointment, please leave here. Please don't disrupt the normal operations of our company. Please cooperate. Thank you. Please." The security guard interrupted him directly and took coercive measures if he didn't leave.
.
This is how Charlie's first action ended.
But he didn't give up.
The next day, I came at the time of the morning shift and also at the time of the off-duty shift, and were kicked away by the security guards.
At this time, Charlie drove decisively out of the car and stayed there for two days, three days... The helpless security guards had no choice but to send this rogue international friend to the local police station.
After being educated and detained for a day, after coming out...
He's back again.
He had the attitude of not looking back even after he hit the wall, which made the people from the Ministry of National Security helpless and could only carry him away as usual.
They have already found out Charlie's identity, including Paopao Company!
Basically, Charlie was labeled as a business person, and he also saw his motive. He wanted to become famous in a different way by acting like a rogue, so as to gain the attention of the senior management of Coastline Company. This kind of little trick is really clever, but now
Many people in the coastline companies know about such a strange foreigner, and more and more employees know about him.
