Rebirth of Hong Kong Island, leading the technology war

Chapter 143: First time attending a meeting of Hezhong Group

Hu Jiangshan did feel a little guilty.

Normally, it is impossible for Hu Yingxiang to know what his eldest grandson has done, at least not everything.

But Hu Yingxiang is no pushover, he is a very powerful person. Although he is older, he is also more sharp.

And even though Hu Yingxiang just stays here, he actually has spies everywhere, so he will definitely not miss anything that happens in Hong Kong Island.

At this time, Hu Yingxiang asked Hu Jiangshan: "By the way, Ah Shan, how did you get involved with Huayao? I heard that the leaders of Huayao seem to value you very much.

Everyone's attention shifted to Hu Jiangshan.

This is a very interesting question. I wonder how Hu Jiangshan will answer it.

It is indeed outrageous that Hu Jiangshan is linked to Huayao.

However, Hu Jiangshan, Wang Chengdong, Xu Zhijun and others had already discussed a statement, so they were well prepared.

Hu Jiangshan replied: "Grandpa, actually we already had a cooperative relationship some time ago and even signed a contract."

When everyone heard this, they were stunned.

Yuan Caihua asked curiously, "What contract? Is it the contract signed with Huayao?"

"Yes, didn't I say I wanted to start a fishery company? I'm a person who thinks a lot, and I've been wondering if there is a market for fish farming? So I asked a friend to introduce a client, and somehow, I found Huayao by accident."

Hu Rongguo couldn't help asking, "Hua, Huayao? Does Huayao want to buy fish?"

Hu Jiangshan said with a smile: "Huayao doesn't just sell electronic products. You may not know that Huayao's online mall also sells beef, red wine and other things."

"...Ah, this is the first time I've heard of this. Doesn't that mean it's a big grocery store?"

Hu Jiangshan smiled slightly: "Do you know how many employees Huayao has?"

Hu Rongguo shook his head. He really didn't know that either.

The dissemination of information between Hong Kong Island and the Mainland is often inconsistent.

Especially for a technology company in the Mainland, the perspectives that Hong Kong can access are often relatively biased, and it can only access some superficial information.

Huayao is already a global international technology company, but it is not much better relatively speaking.

Hu Jiangshan smiled and asked Hu Rongguo: "Do you know how many employees Huayao has?
Hu Rongguo was stunned at first, then thought for a moment and replied, "Huayao is a large company, and its scale should be quite large, so it must have at least 70,000 to 80,000 employees."

Hu Jiangshan shook his head: "Huayao has more than 20 employees around the world, not counting employees of subsidiaries and affiliated companies."

"So many?"

Hu Rongguo was indeed very surprised. He did not expect Huayao to be so large.

With more than 200,000 employees, it has more employees than even the top technology companies like Google, Facebook, and Tuta.

But what does this have to do with Huayao selling beef in its official online store?
Hu Jiangshan added: "For things like beef and red wine, Huayao imports these things from abroad. In fact, they are mainly for employees' welfare. It doesn't matter whether other people buy them or not."

Hu Rongguo asked: "You mean, you raise fish, and Huayao can buy them as a benefit for employees?"

Hu Jiangshan nodded. "That's about right. I talked to the people at Huayao. They might want to make canned fish or something like that, which requires very good ingredients. I happened to be planning to build a large fishery and also prepare high-quality seafood. We hit it off and naturally established a cooperative relationship."

Hu Jiangshan spoke eloquently and effortlessly.

Regardless of whether what he said was reliable or not, the key point was that Hu Jiangshan's calm and composed attitude surprised everyone present.

Hu Rongguo, in particular, was greatly shocked.

Is this still the prodigal Hu Jiangshan who is not doing his job properly?
This kind of behavior is simply that of an elite among the business elites. Even Hu Rongguo might not be able to say this fluently and without thinking.

Hu Rongguo had to admit that Hu Jiangshan's performance today was indeed impressive and he had indeed improved his skills.

Yuan Caihua said happily: "Ashan, then you should contact more people from Huayao later. Don't ignore them, especially the senior executives. Be polite when you speak."

Hu Jiangshan nodded: "Mom, don't worry, we have always been in touch."

Hu Wenxin coughed lightly and said, "Ashan, you need to start building your fishery as soon as possible. Since you have signed a cooperation agreement with them, you must fulfill the contract as soon as possible. If you leave it alone, it will get ruined."

It was the first time that Hu Wenxin suggested Hu Jiangshan to do real work, which was indeed rare.

Hu Jiangshan also nodded and agreed: "Dad, I will definitely do it as soon as possible."

Hu Jiangshan thought that this fishery company might be facing a hurdle that it could not get around.

Not only do we have to do it, but we also have to do it well.

Hu Yingxiang laughed and felt better. He even ate an extra bowl of rice today.

Even the Filipino maids who came to serve the food were all smiling. If the old man was in a good mood, they would be treated better.
After the meal, Hu Yingxiang was still in high spirits and called everyone to the chic tea room to chat while drinking tea.

Hu Ying was particularly considerate of Hu Jiangshan and asked, "Ashan, do you have enough money now?"

Hu Jiangshan was stunned for a moment, then replied: "Enough, Grandpa, don't worry, I have enough money now."

"Well, if you have any difficulties, just tell me and I will help you solve it."

"Okay, thank you, Grandpa. You are so kind."

Hu Yingxiang couldn't stop smiling.

In fact, Hu Jiangshan’s current capital chain is indeed tight, but he is embarrassed to ask Hu Yingxiang for money.

If Hu Jiangshan really needs money, it will definitely not be a small amount.

At this time, Yuan Caihua asked her son: "By the way, Ashan, are you used to living in that apartment? If you feel that the conditions are not good enough, Mom will arrange a better one for you."

Hu Jiangshan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's talk about this later. I don't have time to move now. It's too troublesome."

To be honest, Hu Jiangshan felt that Lishan Apartment was indeed a bit far from the Baisha Bay Yacht Club Pier, and commuting back and forth was somewhat inconvenient.

But I feel like now is not the time to move, so let’s talk about it later.

Late at night, Hu Jiangshan drove back to Lishan Apartment.

Everything about Mr. Hu's house was good except that the air-conditioning was turned on too low. After ordering a few cups of tea, Hu Jiangshan was sweating all over.

Hu Jiangshan took a hot bath, and then sat on the sofa as usual to watch his tablet.

As expected, the situation on mainland social media suddenly changed, and a wave of heated discussion about Huayao was set off again.

The reason is simple, it’s because Huayao P30 finally has a display prototype.

With the increase in the production capacity of P30 mobile phones, not only the Huayao flagship store has the P30 prototype, but even ordinary Huayao stores in some big cities already have prototypes.

It’s just that the configuration and colors are not complete, but it can still allow customers to have a solid experience.

Now the controversy over whether Huayao P30 can be mass-produced has faded a lot.

Although some people still think that Huayao cannot produce many P30 phones, the tone can no longer be so tough.

As the saying goes, facts speak louder than words.

Since Huayao has already brought out the prototypes for display, the more prototypes there are, the less doubts there will be.

More importantly, with the increase in the number of Huayao P30 mobile phones, more and more digital media people have finally got their hands on media machines.

They rushed to test the overall performance of the phone, especially the CPU performance.

This Kirin 990+ chip has always been very mysterious. Now that it has been revealed, it will naturally attract a lot of attention.

Hu Jiangshan watched several review videos of the Huayao P30 mobile phone, and the final conclusion was that the performance had been significantly improved compared to the Huayao Mate 20 mobile phone, which was surprising.

There are even specialized mobile device hardware testing studios online that have disassembled and tested the Kirin 990+.

Although this test is not very professional in the eyes of extremely professional R&D personnel like Hu Jiangshan, it can objectively reflect the strength of the Kirin 990+ chip.

Sure enough, this video quickly became a popular video on the platform website, with a considerable number of comments and reposts.

Looking at the content in the comment section, it is basically all positive. The occasional questioning voice will be immediately drowned out, or even wildly attacked by netizens who support Huayao.

However, Hu Jiangshan also found some Weibo posts saying that they had placed orders for Huayao P30 mobile phones, but the delivery was delayed.

Look at the time. It's just getting close to the end of the month and it should not be time for delivery yet.

I don’t know if these people are playing reverse roles or are the real buyers who are confused.

Just then, Hu Jiangshan discovered a Weibo post.

[Do you really think Huayao can escape and solve the chip supply problem? Too naive, the Blue Star Lighthouse Country must have noticed it, and a bigger stick will be coming soon! ]

The blogger who posted this Weibo uses an Apple phone. Judging from his previous Weibo posts, he is basically related to Apple and Tesla.

It is not surprising that digital bloggers and stock market experts like Eagle Power would post similar Weibo content.

After all, this is not only the blogger's interest and hobby, it is even directly related to his income.

The stock values ​​of Apple and Tesla have been on a roller coaster ride recently.

This blogger has a considerable number of fans, more than one million, which makes him a big blogger.

The blogger's fans naturally have the same tendencies as the blogger.

Taking another look at the comment section, I found that the style was indeed very special. At least on the homepage, there were almost no comments that were friendly to Huayao.

"Hua Yao is just bluffing and struggling to his death."

"That's right. Why are you releasing a new phone? I think they can only produce prototypes. No matter how many orders we get, we won't be able to deliver the goods."

"That's right. There are only about 30 Ps in the whole country. Huayao may have worked hard to collect them."

"Let's wait and see at the end of the month, when Huayao's true colors will be revealed." "Hehe, anyway, let's just watch the show and see how Huayao makes a fool of himself."

There are all kinds of birds in a big forest.

China has a large population and naturally has a diverse biodiversity.

No matter what, these people will be slapped in the face by the end of the month.

Huayao will definitely deliver the goods, and the quantity delivered will not be small.

By the end of the month, Hu Jiangshan expects that the Kirin 990+ chips to be delivered to the military island will be around 50 more.

In other words, Huayao can produce nearly 200 million mobile phones, which is more than enough for the first wave of deliveries.

However, subsequent orders are expected to remain tight.

Early the next morning, Hu Jiangshan was eating breakfast in a restaurant on the street.

The name of this restaurant is Haohao Ice House. It is a shop that Hu Jiangshan often visits. The food they make is very authentic Hong Kong-style meals.

Moreover, the iced lemon tea here is very delicious, and Hu Jiangshan can drink a big cup every time.

The cell phone rang, and the caller ID showed a number from Hong Kong Island.

Hu Jiangshan picked up the phone.

The other person was a woman with a local Hong Kong accent. She spoke very nicely, looked young and gentle, which made people feel tingling.

"Hello, is this Mr. Hu?"

"Yes, it's me. Who are you?"

"I'm the administrative specialist of Hezhong Group. I'm the King of Xin. You can just call me Lulu."

As mentioned earlier, Hezhong Group is the core industry of the Hu family.

Hu Jiangshan said, "Oh, Lulu, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Mr. Hu, can you come to the meeting? It's to prepare for the business forum at the South China Sea Three Crowns."

Hu Jiangshan understood. He didn't expect that the thing Hu Yingxiang mentioned yesterday would be arranged today.

In a few days, Hu Jiangshan will follow the delegation of Hezhong Group to Sanguan, Nanhai to attend a forum meeting.

Hu Jiangshan thought for a moment and asked, "When?"

"It starts at 2 o'clock in the afternoon and the meeting will last about an hour."

Hu Jiangshan said: "Okay, no problem, I will be there on time."

Since Hu Jiangshan has already agreed to do it, he must do it in a proper manner to avoid people gossiping behind his back.

Hu Jiangshan didn't want the Hu family to be criticized because of his ridiculous behavior.

In the afternoon, Hu Jiangshan drove to the headquarters of Hezhong Group.

Although Hu Jiangshan was uneducated in the past, he had been to that place many times and was quite familiar with it.

At the same time, in the high-level conference room at the headquarters of Hezhong Group.

Two employees are preparing for a meeting.

The main thing is to check the equipment and put some mineral water on it.

Finally, they were almost done. Zhao Xinyi asked, "Lulu, I heard that the boss's son is also going with us this time?"

Wang Lulu nodded: "Yes, I called him this morning and told him to come to the meeting."

"Is he coming?"

"Come on, he said he would be on time for the meeting."

Zhao Xinyi became interested and whispered, "I heard that the boss's son is quite outrageous."

Wang Lulu glanced at Zhao Xinyi and said, "Okay, stop talking nonsense, these are just rumors."

Zhao Xinyi gave a meaningful smile: "Lulu, I think you should be more careful."

Wang Lulu was stunned: "Why? What are you careful about?"

"Li Jiaojiao, do you know?"

"Yes, he should be from the marketing department, right?"

"I heard it, I heard it too, don't tell anyone else."

"Ah, tell me, what happened to Li Jiaojiao?"

Zhao Xinyi lowered his voice even more: "I heard that the prince and Li Jiaojiao had a relationship."

Wang Lulu was stunned: "Then what?"

"And then, there was no more. The prince has stopped paying attention to Li Jiaojiao recently."

"…Huh? Why are you ignoring her?"

Zhao Xinyi sighed: "What else could it be? It's just that."

Of course Wang Lulu understood what Zhao Xinyi meant and couldn't help but stick out her tongue.

Zhao Xinyi said: "Lulu, you better be careful. You are so beautiful and have a good figure. Don't let the prince target you."

"Oh, please don't scare me."

Originally Wang Lulu thought it was nothing, but after hearing what Zhao Xinyi said, she was really a little scared.

However, when Wang Lulu called Hu Jiangshan in the morning, she didn't think there was anything abnormal about the other party. Instead, he seemed quite serious.

After a while, participants arrived one after another.

In addition to the participants, Hu Wenxin, as the boss, of course had to come and show his face and explain some things.

The team was led by a senior executive named Xing Limin.

After everyone took their seats, there were only ten minutes left before the meeting ended.

Hu Wenxin looked at everyone and said, "Everyone should be here, let's get started."

Xing Limin said, "Boss Hu, everyone is not here yet, your son hasn't arrived yet."

"Ah, him...Okay, wait a moment then."

Hu Wenxin didn't want to wait any longer, but then she thought that her son had been performing well recently and should be given more attention.

The other people had different expressions, which was very exciting.

Naturally, there are many rumors about the boss's son, and they are also very interesting.

There was a young man with a meaningful smile.

This man's name is Hu Fanghe. He is Hu Jiangshan's cousin and the grandson of Hu Yingxiang's third brother.

Unlike Hu Rongguo, Hu Fanghe took a job in Hezhong Group directly after returning from studying in Britain.

Hu Fanghe had only been working for a few years and had performed well, so he entered the middle management level.

Hu Fanghe felt that his cousin Hu Jiangshan could not come.

When it comes to meetings, what could be more interesting than going to a bar?
Just then, someone knocked on the door.

Hu Wenxin said, "Please come in."

The door opened and a young man walked in.

Seeing so many people in the conference room, he said, "Sorry, everyone, I'm a little late."

Everyone looked at each other in surprise. This person was Hu Jiangshan.

I didn't expect that he would arrive on time.

Hu Fanghe even showed a look of surprise.

What happened today? The sun rose from the west?

Hu Wenxin said: "It's not time yet, please sit down."

Hu Jiangshan found a seat and sat down.

At this time, Hu Jiangshan noticed that there was a set of color pages in front of him, which were quite well done.

Hu Jiangshan flipped through it and found that they were all information about some companies, and most of them were mainland companies.

Hu Jiangshan actually knows a lot about these companies, especially in manufacturing and materials.

In his previous life, Hu Jiangshan often dealt with such companies.

At this time, Hu Wenxin said: "This time when we go to Nanhai Sanguan, we will discuss cooperation and investment with some companies. You can take a look at the company information on the table and choose the key investment and cooperation targets."

Some people looked at each other in bewilderment, while others began to flip through the documents on the table, looking embarrassed as they did so.

To be honest, these people stay in Hong Kong Island all year round and don’t know much about mainland companies, let alone approach them to discuss investment.

But since the boss Hu Wenxin said so, there must be a conclusion.
