Codename Doctor, Moved to Hong Kong

Chapter 163 The Most Beautiful Flower
Their campsite was dozens of kilometers away from the mountain rich in resources, and the daily round trip took up a lot of time and energy.

In order to solve this problem, Ji Shenglong made a bold decision after careful consideration.

He ordered the three groups of people responsible for quarrying, logging and sand panning to camp directly at their respective work sites.

In this way, they only need to transport the mined rocks, felled trees and scoured sand back to the camp every day.

It saves the time of going back and forth, and greatly improves the work efficiency.

Each of these three groups has a thousand people. They are equipped with hundreds of long and short guns and are well-equipped to deal with any emergency.

Therefore, Ji Shenglong was not worried about their safety.

This arrangement not only improves work efficiency, but also reduces transportation costs, allowing the entire project to proceed more smoothly.

At the campsite, Ji Shenglong personally took charge and directed other personnel to carry out tasks such as land clearing, leveling and foundation excavation.

Under his leadership, the craftsmen were in charge of guidance, and everyone was working enthusiastically with shovels and pickaxes in hand.

The entire campsite was busy and orderly, with everyone working towards a common goal.

Meanwhile, Grace was not idle either.

He is responsible for coordinating external affairs to ensure the smooth progress of the project.

For example, he communicated with the Immigration Bureau and, through his connections, processed work visas for 5,000 people including Ji Shenglong.

This move not only solved the labor problem, but also ensured the legality of the project.

Grace has become a hot figure in Australia today.

He took away 600,000 acres of land in one go, and this huge move brought considerable income to the Australian government's finances.

Moreover, according to the information revealed by Grace, 600,000 acres of land is far from meeting their needs, and they want to continue purchasing more land.

Grace, or Zhang Chaoyang, is naturally not satisfied with the existing 600,000 acres of land.

The price of land in Australia at this moment is as cheap as cabbage.

Six hundred thousand acres of land cost less than twenty million U.S. dollars, with an average price of less than thirty dollars per acre.

This is also because these lands include exploration rights and mining rights, and if only the price of the land itself is calculated, it will be cheaper.

If possible, Zhang Chaoyang naturally wants to buy more land.

Zhang Chaoyang sent a signal through Grace: they will use Australia as a base to make a series of large-scale investments.

These investments will cover areas such as super-large mining enterprises, metal smelting enterprises, machinery industrial enterprises, as well as farms, grain and food deep processing enterprises and textile enterprises.

The total amount of these investments will exceed 300 million US dollars.

Such a huge scale of investment naturally attracted great attention from the Australian government.

They are eager to attract more foreign investment to promote economic development.

Zhang Chaoyang's project just meets their needs.

As a result, Grace's status in Australia also rose accordingly.

This also caused Grace's status in Australia to rise sharply, and she even became a guest of honor of the Australian President.

However, no one knew that Zhang Chaoyang was the one who carefully planned all of this.

He had already left Australia and returned to Hong Kong.

On the day he met Spider, he boarded the Crystal Palace ship and set off on his return journey. After returning to Hong Kong, Zhang Chaoyang called Zhao Donglai.

"Zhao Donglai, how are the sales of our "Woman Flower"? " Zhang Chaoyang asked with a smile.

Zhao Donglai stood respectfully in front of Zhang Chaoyang and reported with joy: "Sir, since the publication of "Woman Flower", it has been warmly welcomed.

Not only men are crazy about it, but many women are also scrambling to buy it, hoping to learn about makeup and clothing from it.

The first issue was reprinted four times and sold a total of 300,000 copies.

And, to this day, there is still a steady stream of readers wanting to buy it.”

Hearing this number, Zhang Chaoyang nodded slightly, expressing his recognition of the sales performance.

He had anticipated the hot sales of "Woman Flower" because in that era, color illustrations were still a novelty for many people.

The photos of beautiful women published in "Woman Flower" have undoubtedly become the biggest highlight to attract readers.

"Very good." Zhang Chaoyang praised, "However, we still need to maintain a certain sales rhythm.

For the time being, 300,000 copies of each issue are printed within a year.

If readers can’t buy it, let them wait patiently for the next issue.”

Zhao Donglai was stunned for a moment, but soon understood Zhang Chaoyang's intention.

He knew that Zhang Chaoyang hoped to maintain the popularity and topicality of the magazine by controlling sales.

. So he respectfully agreed: "Yes, sir. I will do as you instruct."

Then, Zhang Chaoyang proposed a new idea: "Also, Zhao Donglai, please inform Lao Yang and ask him to organize a 'Most Beautiful Flower Woman' selection activity in the Morning Post.

We can use this event to further promote Woman Flower magazine and increase reader engagement.”

Zhao Donglai's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately agreed: "This is a good idea! Sir, how do you want to do it specifically?"

Zhang Chaoyang elaborated: “First, we can add a page in the Morning Post to introduce the models published in Woman Flower.

Introducing a model every day so that everyone can have a deeper understanding of them.

Then, we set up a voting session to let readers choose the 'most beautiful woman' in their minds.

Ballot papers can be printed in daily newspapers, and readers only need to cut out the ballot papers, fill in their choices and mail them back to the Morning Post.

"Finally, when the results of the 'Most Beautiful Flower' selection are announced, we will select ten lucky readers from all the readers who have participated in the voting.

These ten lucky readers will have the opportunity to go on board the Crystal Palace and have lunch with the ‘most beautiful lady’! ”

Zhao Donglai was very excited after listening to Zhang Chaoyang's idea: "This activity is so creative!

I believe it will create a sensation and attract more readers to participate!
This activity can not only further enhance the influence of "Woman Flower" and increase the popularity of those models and female artists, but also increase the sales of our "Hong Kong Morning Post". "

"Yes, that's it!
You hurry up and arrange this matter!"

"Okay, sir!" Zhao Donglai agreed and prepared to complete the task assigned by Zhang Chaoyang.

“Don’t leave in such a hurry!
And one more thing!

After such a long period of preparation, the conditions for the opening of our Crystal Palace are now ripe.

Next, we need to prepare for the opening of the Crystal Palace." Zhang Chaoyang stopped Zhao Donglai who was about to leave and said with a smile.
