At Kai Tak Airport, when Zhao Donghuai walked out of the passage with a 1.72-meter-tall, thin young man, looking at the familiar environment, he couldn't help but sigh, "I came back. I originally thought I could get it done in twenty or thirty days, but I didn't expect it."
It took more than 40 days!"
He went to A Mei's house to collect waste paper. Did it go well?
It’s not complicated at all. First, he went north. At that time, he took with him more than 700,000 Hong Kong dollars, that is, a Hong Kong businessman. He followed the channels of some associations selling waste paper to see which large public paper mills accepted it, and then went there as a Hong Kong businessman.
Talk.
It’s really not difficult.
He expected that the waste paper recovered from Amei's house would be of much higher quality than the one obtained by the Hong Kong Society. Even if it was sold at the same price as the other party, the paper mill would give him priority.
When shopping around, of course you will buy good quality, but if you don’t buy something inferior, try to pass it off as good quality.
What's more, Zhao Donghuai has never thought about making too much money from this? He is not someone who wants money in this area. The quality is better than the bad guys in the Hong Kong community, and it is 10% cheaper.
Just eat a few times and you'll be done.
His purpose is to send money to the paper mill to save costs, or to send it as a Hong Kong businessman, it is so popular!
Contact the person from Huayuan Group? It’s also very simple. He is a Hong Kong businessman. In this era, he is a buff in the mainland... Or let the Huayuan freighter return with an empty ship and load some goods and charge some freight, and you will still get money!
Is it difficult to send money??
It's just a matter of negotiating the price over a meal. The atmosphere in the Mainland that treats Hong Kong businessmen favorably is very good.
The hardest part is to go to Amei’s house to collect waste paper, this? He is there to collect waste paper, not in the automobile, real estate, film and television industries, etc., just to collect waste paper!!
When you get to the local area, you can find people in the related industry, and then add 10% to the market price, and you're done. The people selling waste paper in A-mei's house are just rag kings.
It's just a language barrier. Zhao Donghuai is a novice in English. He had returned to his alma mater before he traveled back in time. Beside him was Xiao Zhao Qiang, a sixth form graduate from Dakeng Village. He had the same academic qualifications as him, but A Qiang was good at English and could speak
Barely communicating with foreigners.
Aqiang was a backup. Before he found Aqiang, he worked as a waiter in a Western restaurant. With his knowledge of English, he might be able to earn more in daily tips.
After going to Amei's house, Zhao Donghuai discussed business. The main force was a middle-aged translator who was proficient in English and hired from Huayuan Group.
After more than 40 days of busy work, he finally came back. When he set out, he had more than 700,000 Hong Kong dollars, and a few tickets cost tens of thousands. When he came back... he brought back 2 million Hong Kong dollars.
The biggest reason is that one is that he doesn’t want to go through too much trouble in bargaining and waste a lot of time and energy. Secondly, the paper mill he contacted cannot get out too many Hong Kong dollars at a time.
Not to mention that paper mill, the other party went to several brother units to dismantle it, but they couldn't come up with more.
In addition to the 2 million Hong Kong dollars he brought out, a certain paper mill also owed him more than 2 million Hong Kong dollars.
Zhao Donghuai still made it clear that if you don't give me enough Hong Kong dollars to settle the bill, I won't be able to continue trading with you next time, so I can barely scrape together 2 million.
He has thought about converting the more than 2 million yuan in arrears into investments. It would not be difficult for the mainland paper mills to settle accounts in RMB, but now he has no way to invest in real estate.
Just turn it into an IOU first.
"It's still a bit too early, but this is still a huge profit."
70 turned into more than 200, and there are still more than 200 debts. This harvest only lasted forty days, more than five times the net profit!
Of course, this refers to those papers that left the shore from Amei’s house, paid taxes to Amei Customs, and also paid taxes in the mainland.
While he was still sighing, Zhao Qiang said in a daze, "Brother Huai, how many millions did we really make on this trip? Oh my god..."
"I may tip a little more than others, but how many years will it take?"
As he spoke, Zhao Qiang seemed to have just come to life. He grabbed Zhao Donghuai's arm and shook it, "Brother Huai, the house in Kowloon Tong now only costs more than 800 square feet. You can buy a hundred square feet with more than 80,000 square feet.
Come to a thousand-foot mansion, a thousand-foot mansion!"
"That's Kowloon Tong!"
In 1980, the average housing price in Kowloon exceeded HK$1,000 per square foot. However, with the advent of 1983 and 1984, housing prices plummeted, and the current average price is only over 500 Hong Kong dollars per square foot.
Compared with the average price, Yau Tsim Mong is not on the same level as To Kwa Wan, Ngau Tau Kok, Sau Mau Ping, etc. Yau Tsim Mong is much higher than the average price, while the latter is lower than the average price.
Zhao Donghuai shook his head helplessly, "Don't think too much. Have you remembered how to run a business? Now I ask you to go to A-mei's house to buy waste paper. Can you do it?"
Zhao Qiang smiled awkwardly, shook his head and waved his hands, "Brother Huai, you think too highly of me."
He recruited a young boy from Dakeng Village, who was a little clever and steady and reliable. He wanted to let him run for him when he didn't have time.
Now??I can only say that I think too much.
Taking out a cigarette and taking a puff, Zhao Donghuai said, "Two million is still not enough, but now I just keep running to my sister's house. If I can't get the Hong Kong dollars from the north, I still can't get it."
After smoking a cigarette, he took out 10,000 yuan and handed it to Zhao Qiang, "This is your dividend. If you want to make a fortune next time, learn English well. I hope you can communicate with foreigners on a daily basis next time, even if you speak English
Slow down, as long as you can communicate."
Don't think that he paid less, and only paid 10,000 yuan after earning so much... In fact, Zhao Qiang is just a spoiler this time.
Apart from giving him extra money for air tickets, hotel room and board, it has achieved nothing.
When Zhao Qiang was so excited that he didn't know what to say, Zhao Donghuai said again, "Remember to keep it secret. I hope that when we set out next time, we will give you one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand, instead of many people competing for our business."<
/p>
He is not afraid of too many people grabbing business.
Again, at present, mainland paper mills cannot give out so much Hong Kong dollars. They have no money to settle accounts and can only keep accounts, which can easily dampen enthusiasm.
If this kind of business happens more than a dozen times, I'm afraid that by next year, he will be able to buy a small factory in the Mainland even if he remembers the accounts.
After chatting with Zhao Qiang for a while, on the way back to Kowloon Tong by taxi, Zhao Donghuai had already begun to consider whether the accounts from the mainland could be recovered in other ways. After all, he had more than four million yuan in his hand, which was excellent and above the level of the first edition in 1983 [
New World], the grasp is pretty good.
Two million is still a bit too nervous.
It must be pointed out that Zhao Donghuai is not just making movies now and not doing waste paper business. Why not continue to pick up money?
Before coming back, he made an agreement with the paper mill he was trading with. If units in other provinces needed it, as long as they could pay in Hong Kong dollars, they could contact him at any time. He could continue running, and then... give a paper mill in eastern Guangdong this time 10% of the waste.
Paper is used as profit.
It's not about giving money, it's a public enterprise, and giving waste paper resources is more attractive to the other party than giving money.
When he returned to Kowloon and checked into a hotel, he took out his BB machine and it started ringing. He called the paging station to find out the situation. Zhao Donghuai quickly dialed Zhou Runfa.
When the call got through, Afa was shocked and said, "Director, you are back? I thought you disappeared from the world. Can we still make the movie?"
Before Zhao Donghuai left, he said that he would give them a month or two to prepare, so that everyone would not be in bad shape after filming started. However, it is still a bit panicked that you can hardly be contacted for 40 days after leaving.
For those who made an appointment last time, not to mention the cost of energy, but also the cost of time. For example, Zhou Runfa cannot make movies, and there are definitely not many TV series. He also filmed four TV series in 1983.
Lu Liangwei was in the stage of building momentum for Andy Lau, Liang Chaowei and others, and he played supporting roles to support newcomers.
Zhao Donghuai laughed, "I was busy a while ago and went out to eat tonight. By the way, can you pass a message to me? I want to meet Boss Shao."
Zhou Runfa said excitedly, "Are we ready? Director, if you are just renting equipment, you don't need to see Boss Shao now. He may not have time. If you want to release it, other people will be responsible for it."
Zhao Donghuai explained, "No, it's a small business."
Boss Shao has donated an average of more than 100 million to the Mainland every year since 1985. His account of more than 2 million Hong Kong dollars in the Mainland, can he negotiate with Boss Shao to exchange it? It is not far from his donation, and donations are still made every year
Donate.
Before that, Boss Shao would certainly not have gone through a mental construction process.
Boss Shao won't help him for free. There should be some success if he pays some price.
