309, Li {xml} Fungs strength and weakness

June is a complicated month, and different people have different concerns!

Those rich ladies who have nothing to do every day and only think about how to spend their money have finally ushered in their spring. In the past, if they wanted to buy some luxury goods that showed their status, they had to fly to Europe or Japan!

Well now, there is Yunshang Boutique in Xiangjiang, which allows them to satisfy their shopping spree without leaving Xiangjiang.

The students of the University of Hong Kong are paying attention to the upcoming graduation ceremony in July. Now the school has begun to build momentum and will invite their most famous student Chu Huan of the 71st class to give a speech at the graduation ceremony.

Chu Huan, who has disappeared from the Hong Kong media for half a year, will appear in public for the first time.

Comics and toy lovers are paying attention to Seishun Toys R Us, which is about to start filming this month. Ever since "Fantasy Comics" announced that they will develop "Fantasy Comics" peripherals, there has been news about Seishun Toys "R" Us.

They are mysterious and no one knows how they will appear in public.

In addition, Li & Fung Toys has also advertised and has obtained the operating rights for Disney animation peripherals. It will sell the latest toys at the same time as Youth Toys R Us in June.

There are also those who are looking forward to the new movie and the new album...

Even under such circumstances, a major event occurred in Xiangjiang's arena that was enough to shock the entire arena!

The most promising young boss of Lian Sheng got a bad deal!

Many people in the world are ridiculing and ridiculing the matter of getting a scumbag. In their view, the scumbag was all caused by themselves.

Although everyone does not know the reason, he got close to the wealthy Chu Huan and got a lot of decoration business for the company under Chu Huan's name. He also got close to the mysterious rich man Chen Haichao, and got the business of decorating Brother's audio and video.

But no matter what, with these two businesses in hand, it was just a matter of time for him to become a rich man. As a result, people were so dissatisfied that he started a flour business, which was caught by the policeman who urgently needed to show off in front of ICAC.

The opportunity came to Yi Guo.

Not only did he scan Nazha's goods, but during the fight between the two sides, Nazha even had his legs broken. He will have to use a wheelchair in Stanley for the rest of his life.

Just when everyone was salivating over the territory left by Nazha, Nazha's number one confidant Mo Zai suddenly stepped forward and negotiated with the uncles of the society in order to get the chips for the first phase of the decoration business in Huaye City.

, and then with their support, Mo Zai successfully took over Nazha's position and became a new generation of boss!

At the same time, another small thing happened in this matter.

A police officer named Ajie, who graduated from the police academy last year and joined the police force, was suddenly promoted one level and became a senior police officer!

"Is this Ajie yours?"

In the villa in Beacon Hill, Chu Huan asked Bao Tianming with a smile.

Bao Tianming didn't hide anything in front of Chu Huan, he nodded and said: "Well, it turns out he is my younger brother, but he has a clean background, so I let him join the police force."

Infernal Affairs!

Chu Huan smiled indifferently. Anyway, now that Bao Tianming has left the world, it doesn't matter whether this Ajie is Bao Tianming's person or not.

"Does anyone know besides you?"

Bao Tianming said: "The fish head mark and the snake boy know it clearly, but not even the skeleton knows about the rest!"

"Then let him be a good policeman!" Chu Huan said calmly.

If Bao Tianming was still in the club, Chu Huan would definitely let Bao Tianming keep this chess piece, but now that Bao Tianming is no longer a member of the club, keeping such a person would be a stain on him.

Bao Tianming nodded and said: "I know, I have already made it clear to him!"

"Where's Mo Zai? The only flaw in the whole thing now is him." Chu Huan asked.

Bao Tianming's plan for Nazha was actually very simple. He bribed Mo Zai, Nazha's confidant, and revealed the news to Bao Tianming during the Nazha transaction, and then Bao Tianming told Ajie the news.

Then take the dregs and fold them!

It has been a long time since Nazha plotted against Bao Tianming, and Bao Tianming is no longer a member of the club, so no one would have thought that Bao Tianming arranged the whole thing.

However, there are several hidden dangers in this, and the hidden dangers are Ajie and Mo Zai who were involved in this matter.

Ajie is now in the police force. He doesn't want people to know that he was involved in this matter even more than Bao Tianming, so Ajie will definitely not talk about it.

But Mo Zai was different. He had grasped one of Bao Tianming's weaknesses.

Bao Tianming smiled and said: "Don't worry, the only charge of betraying the boss will make him keep his mouth shut!"

Seeing that Bao Tianming was so confident, Chu Huan didn't say anything!

He didn't understand things in the arena as well as Bao Tianming.

...

The matter of taking the scum did not divert Chu Huan's energy. Now Chu Huan is most concerned about the opening of Youth Toys "R" Us.

"Newspapers, TV, radio, bus body advertisements, giant posters... It seems that Li & Fung Toys really spent a lot of money this time!"

Sitting in the chairman's office of Jiahu Building, Chu Huan looked at the report Xu Yi brought up about Li & Fung Toys and said with a smile.

Since "Big J", companies in Xiangjiang seem to have learned something and have begun to work hard on publicity.

"Li & Fung Toys obviously wants to compete with you, boss, on this matter this time!"

Xu Yi smiled and talked to Chu Huan.

Compete with me? Are they qualified?...Chu Huan said modestly: "Li & Fung Group is a century-old company in Hong Kong. When such a group really wants to do something, it still has a lot of energy.

big."

Xu Yi looked at Chu Huan with disbelief: "Boss, there are only two of us here, can you tell the truth?"

Chu Huan's face darkened, he glared at Xu Yi and said, "What, am I wrong? If what I said is wrong, how could Zhong Zhichen and the others not get the bus company's body advertisement?"

Zhong Zhichen and others also thought about advertising on the bodies of Kowloon Bus and Zhua Bus, but even the two companies that had already cooperated with Chu Huan politely rejected Zhong Zhichen, saying that they had already sold the body advertising to

Li & Fung toys.

But in fact, according to the investigation by the Jiaku Consulting Company investigation team, the two parties did not sign a contract at that time.

This is Li & Fung Group’s connections in Hong Kong. It is not only related to Jian Yueqiang and others. As Feng Yongfa said, Li & Fung Group’s connections in Hong Kong are complicated.

This is also one of the reasons why Chu Huan is so concerned about Li & Fung Group.

Xu Yi whispered: "Manager Zhong and the others have tried their best!"

"There's nothing we can do about it. If we acquire it and become our own boss, we can do it!" Chu Huan said dissatisfiedly.

Xu Yi looked at Chu Huan curiously, wondering whether Chu Huan's words were true or false.

Chu Huan didn't care about this and said: "Now that Li & Fung Toys has put its chips on the table, the rest is up to us."

After talking about the situation on his side, Xu Yi immediately said energetically: "They are definitely no match for you, boss!"

"hehe!"

...

Feng Guojing was actually not in a good mood!

Because the matter he wanted to investigate was not investigated clearly.

Previously, Feng Guojing took a car to the flagship store of Youth Toys in Causeway Bay, but it was blocked and could not see the situation inside at all, so Feng Guojing thought of finding a decoration company to investigate.

They found the decoration company, but the boss went in!

Secretary Sally whispered: "Their boss probably won't be able to come out in a short time!"

Nonsense, the flour business is still so large, I will never think of it again in this life.

Feng Guojing thought helplessly.

The news that the police had caught Nazha, a flour conglomerate, had made headlines in major newspapers and TV news in Hong Kong during this period. It was difficult for Feng Guojing not to know about it.

But he was still very dissatisfied with Sally's work efficiency: "If you can't find the boss, you can find their contractor. If it doesn't work, you can also find a design company. Don't you have any information at all?"

Sally could only continue to explain helplessly: "The person who designed the Youth Toys R Us was Cao Wenjin's eldest son, Cao Yunzu. As for the contractors, we also looked for them, but they found out that they were inquiring about the decoration of Youth Toys R Us.

If the situation arises, those people immediately keep silent and say nothing!”

Cao Yunzu was going to be Chu Huan's eldest brother-in-law soon, so it was naturally impossible to tell Feng Guojing about the decoration style of Toys "R" Us.

Feng Guojing also sighed helplessly, but fortunately, it was only two days before the opening. Whether he knew the decoration style of Toys "R" Us was just out of curiosity, and it was not a particularly important thing.

After thinking about it, Feng Guojie asked Sally: "How is the feedback on the advertisement?"

Sally immediately showed a happy smile and said: "I have contacted the store managers of various stores in the past two days, and there are obviously more consumers asking about Disney animation peripherals. Everyone heard that we will launch new products on June 16th.

, all expressed that they would come to visit on that day!”

After hearing what Sally said, Feng Guojing finally showed a smile, which showed that their advertisement was still very useful.

This is enough.

Sally saw the smile on Feng Guojing's face, thought for a moment, and reminded in a low voice: "However, some consumers are still asking whether there will be "Fantasy Comics" peripherals for sale in our toy store on that day.

?”

Sure enough, after hearing the news, the smile on Feng Guojing's face disappeared, but then he sighed helplessly. Although he had advertised throughout the city, the coverage area exceeded the advertisements around "Fantasy Comics", but

Just the advertising done by "Fantasy Comics" itself is more targeted, which is beyond their reach.

"I know, as long as we can attract those who buy Disney animation peripherals!"

It is impossible for most products to cover everyone. High-end restaurants are facing wealthy businessmen in the city. They can eat up three or four months of ordinary people's labor in one meal, so those ordinary people in Xiangjiang are naturally not them.

consumer groups.

The same goes for the boutique opened by Cao Yunshang. A watch in it can easily cost hundreds of thousands or even millions, almost as much as a villa in Xiangjiang. Naturally, their consumer group cannot be ordinary people.

The same is true for toys. Disney peripheral toys are consumed by those who are fans of Disney peripherals. Others may be very indifferent to such toys.

Therefore, Feng Guojing is more concerned about whether he can attract these people to Li & Fung Toys.

Sally also understood this truth, so she didn't say anything.

Looking at the time and thinking that he had an important appointment tonight, Feng Guojing said to Sally: "Okay, I have other things to do, you go and do it!"

After Sally left, Feng Guojing also put on his coat and left the Fung Mansion.

Jade Club!

As the two major bus companies in Hong Kong, KMB and CMB, their competition has become more and more fierce with the opening of the undersea tunnel, but today the second-generation representatives of these two companies are sitting together!

Not only did Lei Juehua from KMB and Yan Jieqiang from CMB not be as tit-for-tat as outsiders thought, but they were joking and chatting with each other.

Unlike KMB, which often appears in Hong Kong entertainment articles, CMB appears much less often in Hong Kong entertainment articles.

The founders of this company are two major families, Yan Chengkun and Huang Wancai, who are related by marriage.

However, later, the Huang family continued to sell shares in CMB, and the Yan family became the largest shareholder of CMB.

Yan Chengkun was born in Xiangjiang in 1905. He worked as a sedan bearer in his early years. Later, he became successful and owned a large number of sedan bearers, earning his first pot of gold.

Huang Wancai is engaged in shipping and transportation business, traveling between Xiangjiang and various coastal ports in Guangdong Province.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Both of their backgrounds are related to transportation.

In 1930, Yan Chengkun, Huang Wancai and others saw that the population in Xiangjiang urban area was increasing, various industries were prosperous, and there was great potential in operating bus services, so they jointly founded Zhua Motors Co., Ltd.

Like Kowloon Bus, Zhua Bus was severely damaged during the war and re-emerged after the war. By the 1960s, Yan Chengkun had become an uncle of the Teochew tycoon level.

At the same time, he also became a hot celebrity in Hong Kong's political and economic circles.

In 1955, he was appointed by the Governor of Hong Kong, Grantham, as a member of the Legislative Council. In 1959, he was promoted to the Executive Council, the highest power structure of the Hong Kong government, and concurrently served as the chief member of the Legislative Council. He was directly involved in many aspects of the reconstruction and development of Hong Kong after the war.

Important decision.

During this period, Yan Chengkun was awarded the OBE and CBE honors by the Queen of England in 1955 and 1961 respectively.

But Yan Chengkun also has his own problems. Yan Chengkun has always believed that Xiangjiang citizens need low-cost bus services, so he stubbornly maintains the low-cost operation model of CMB and refuses to modernize CMB.

His increasingly conservative business policy has led to an aging and dilapidated situation of CMB. The more than 40-year-old headquarters building is dilapidated and in need of repairs. The vehicles are old, the frequency is insufficient, the morale of the employees is low, and the bus service is deteriorating. Passengers have complained:

More and more!

But in any case, the two companies, KMB and CMB, which control the lifeblood of Hong Kong's transportation, are still favored by the British behind the Hong Kong government. Therefore, last year, the Transportation Advisory Committee of Hong Kong believed that the two bus companies operating services in Hong Kong

The level was not high, so it was suggested to the Hong Kong government that the British United Overseas Transport Company and the two Yingzi companies in Hong Kong should jointly take over the two bus companies. Otherwise, the renewal of the license agreement between the two bus companies would be suspended when it expired in 1975.

United Overseas Transport Company is a subsidiary of British Motor Traction Company. Its main business is to provide customers with public transportation management services. Its business scope includes Africa, Central and South America, India and parts of the Far East.

At that time, the general manager of United Overseas Company personally came to Hong Kong to negotiate with the heads of the two buses, and proposed to acquire 30% of the shares of CMB and 45% of KMB by purchasing or exchanging shares, hoping to participate in the bus business in Hong Kong. Later, he was

Both sides firmly refused and gave up.

But this matter has not passed away like this. Now the Hong Kong government still has voices that believe that the two companies should give up their business.

This incident caused the Lei family and the Yan family to suspend their business competition and stand together.

"The ghost guys will definitely not give up. I received news that they are now uniting more people to take over the management rights of our two bus companies!"

Yan Jieqiang spoke to Lei Juehua with a calm expression.

Lei Juehua nodded and said: "I have also heard the news. Do you know who the two British-funded companies in Xiangjiang are?"

Yan Jieqiang sneered and said: "Land, Hehe International!"

Lei Juehua nodded helplessly. In this era, anyone in Xiangjiang would feel a headache if they knew that their business competitors were these two companies.

"This time, the two of us must join forces to keep these two companies. Otherwise, maybe next year neither of us will be able to get the bus franchise!"

Yan Jieqiang nodded and said: "This is the only way it can be now!"

"Boy, I'm really sorry, I'm late for some things in the company!"

At this time Feng Guojing came to the booth.

Among the three, Lei Juehua is the oldest, over fifty, Yan Jieqiang is the second, in his forties, and the youngest is Feng Guojing, who is 29 this year!

"You two, I would like to thank you both for this matter. If it weren't for your support, I would have lost to Chu Huan in this publicity war!"

After Feng Guojing sat down, he smiled and expressed his gratitude to Lei Juehua and Yan Jiiqiang.

Lei Juehua smiled and said: "We are all businessmen in Guangdong Province, and we still need to help those who should be helped!"

Yan Jieqiang also smiled and said: "That's right, besides, this time it was indeed your Li & Fung Group who found us first, and we will support your Li & Fung Group both publicly and privately!"

"Thank you both!" Feng Guojing thanked him again.

Lei Juehua reminded: "But Guojing, Chu Huan is not an ordinary businessman. No one knows what method he will use to deal with your propaganda war next, so don't be careless!"

Feng Guojing nodded and said: "I think so too, but now that Xiangjiang's publicity channels have basically been used by our Li & Fung Toys, I really can't think of what other methods Chu Huan can use!"

Yan Jiaqiang said: "I haven't had much contact with this Chu Huan, but my impression is very deep. According to his previous behavior, he either doesn't do many things, but as long as he does it, he will definitely succeed!"

Feng Guojing showed a helpless expression. He naturally knew about this matter, and some time ago Li and Feng had played against Chu Huan for two rounds.

In the first battle of raw material supply, Li & Fung was completely defeated. In the second battle, the power struggle of the Hong Kong Toy General Chamber of Commerce, the two sides ended up in a draw.

Now is their third battle!

"Brother Lei, you are more familiar with Chu Huan than we are. What do you think he will do next?"

Feng Guojing invited Lei Juehua and Yan Jieqiang this evening, firstly to thank them, and secondly to ask them about Chu Huan's situation.

After all, when Chu Huan's black and white images were promoting the movie "The Big J", they had cooperated with both of them, especially the Lei family. As of now, Chu Huan's Shanhai Cinemas still rents the Lei family.

There are four movie theaters in our house!

Lei Juehua said with a helpless smile: "You don't need to ask me about this matter. Everyone knows Chu Huan. He always likes to take the wrong approach when doing business. To be honest, Chu Huan could have thought of letting our two bus companies

We never thought that the bus would come to promote his movie while passing through the Cross Harbor Tunnel."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Yan Jieqiang nodded and said: "That's true!"

Lei Juehua suggested to Feng Guojing: "Guojing, I think your Toy City and Chu Huan's Youth Toys R Us both operate toys, but the content is completely different, and now they are both Xiangjiang

Members of the Toy General Chamber of Commerce, the best way is to turn conflicts into friendship!"

Outsiders don't know that the Feng family approached Jian Yueqiang and others to make peace.

Feng Guojing said helplessly: "Brother Lei, you think we don't want to make peace. It's Chu Huan who doesn't want to make peace, not our Feng family who doesn't want to make peace!"

Faced with Feng Guojing's words, Lei Juehua didn't quite believe it. Chu Huan's Youth Toys "R" Us was the first to announce its opening on the 16th of this month.

However, Li & Fung Toys immediately announced that their toy store would also put on sale the latest toys around Disney animation on the same day.

No matter how you look at it, Li & Fung Toys is competing with Toys R Us for business.

As for the previous conflicts between the two parties, Lei Juehua also knows a little bit about it, no matter how it develops in the middle, right?

At the beginning, Li & Fung Toys was indeed the first to sell imitation peripherals of "Fantasy Comics"!

However, one must understand the right and wrong of things. The Lei family and the Feng family have known each other for many years and have had many business contacts. No matter what, this time they will definitely side with Li & Fung Toys.

Yan Jiiqiang said from the side: "Guojing, our two families have some friendship with Chu Huan. If you need it, we can also come forward to be an intermediary for you!"

Lei Juehua nodded and said: "That's right!"

Feng Guojing thanked you: "Thank you both for your kindness. To be honest, our Feng family has found some friends to convince Chu Huan before, but Chu Huan doesn't want to let it go. So we have no choice.

!”

Lei Juehua and Yan Jiiqiang looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Feng Guojing did not hide the matter when he arrived, and directly told the two of them that the Feng family had invited Jian Yueqiang, Tang Jiqian, Zhao Congyan, and Li Mingze.

Yan Jiiqiang said with some dissatisfaction: "If this is the case, this Chu Huan is a bit too domineering. Now that the Feng family has surrendered and there is no direct competitive relationship between the two parties, wouldn't it be better for everyone to put aside their prejudices and cooperate with each other?"

Lei Juehua also shook his head, thinking that Chu Huan's behavior was a bit excessive.

Feng Guojing continued to speak helplessly: "In fact, we at Li & Fung have never thought about competing with Chu Huan. As the two of you said, since we no longer have a direct competitive relationship, it is best to go our own way.

Development, but this Chu Huan may have been too successful before, so he has a very strong personality. Now we can only hope that the other party can see the power of our Feng family and return to the negotiation table!"

Lei Juehua nodded and said: "Looking for opportunities for negotiation during battle is indeed a way."

Yan Jiaqiang said: "But I think this time, Chu Huan will definitely be willing to talk to your Feng family!"

Lei Juehua and Feng Guojing looked at Yan Jiiqiang at the same time.

Yan Jieqiang smiled and said: "I have also paid attention to the sales of imitation peripherals of "Fantasy Comics" before. It is indeed very good, but the peripherals of Disney animation have a greater consumer base. As for Chu Huan, will there be any new promotion methods?

, The sales trick is just our guess now, but it is undeniable that, as Guo Jing said just now, all the publicity channels that can be thought of in Xiangjiang have basically been taken over by Li & Fung Toys of Guo Jing. Chu

Even if Huan wants to do it, at most he can learn from it.

In the end, what matters is everyone’s final sales volume.

It's impossible for Chu Huan to have trouble with money. I think the reason why Chu Huan has never agreed to reconcile with Li & Fung Toys before is that he probably wants to gain a greater say in future cooperation with you. Otherwise, I really don't think so.

I can’t believe why Chu Huan hasn’t reconciled with you Li & Fung Toys yet!”

Lei Juehua had a different idea and said: "What if Chu Huan's target is the entire Li & Fung Group? Chu Huan never lacks for big moves!"

Yan Jieqiang firmly denied: "This is impossible. Li & Fung Group is not Jiahu Textile, nor is it Hang Lung Properties. Both of you and I have a small stake in Li & Fung Group. Guojing's shares in Li & Fung Group have exceeded 51%."

, plus the two of us, even if Chu Huan buys all the shares of Li & Fung Group circulating on the market, it is impossible to control Li & Fung Group!"

Lei Juehua nodded unconsciously.

Feng Guojing smiled and said: "Now that things are like this, we can only take one step at a time!"

When Yan Jiiqiang and Lei Juehua saw what Feng Guojing said, they stopped saying anything.

Time passed slowly and June 15th came soon!

After many inquiries, Feng Guojing still couldn't find out what other tricks Chu Huan had in promoting Youth Toys "R" Us. Now it seems that everything is as he predicted.

There are no more novel tricks.

Everything is step-by-step propaganda.

If this is the case, Feng Guojing is confident that this time, the Feng family will definitely have the upper hand in their third confrontation with Chu Huan.

Feng Hanzhu called Feng Guojing to his office, also concerned about this matter.

Feng Guojing told Feng Hanzhu the results of his investigation and analysis. After hearing this, Feng Hanzhu showed a satisfied smile.

"It seems that this time, we will have the upper hand!"
