Return to Hong Kong Island for a Century

Chapter 54: Borrowing a Car (Second update, please collect, read, and vote)
ps: I overlooked the fact that ATV was renamed Rediffusion Television in 82.

After receiving the money, Li Song immediately returned it to Tian Jiahui. Tian Jiahui felt relieved, but he had complicated feelings towards Li Song because the authorization contract and other things were all handled by Tian Jiahui.

"Old Tian, ​​can you lend me your car so I can practice?" Li Song will be getting his driver's license next week, and he's itching to try it.

"Boss, why don't the company buy a car for me? My car is so bad that it's not worthy of your status." Tian Jiahui said reluctantly after hearing this.

"Forget it, I don't have much money left." Li Song's words made Tian Jiahui roll his eyes.

"Boss, the opening time is February 12, the 2th day of the twelfth lunar month, which is Tuesday. This is a very auspicious day! It will be at nine o'clock in the morning." Tian Jiahui said.

"I'll go to the company on Monday to see if the cashier has been found."

"The cashier still needs to be interviewed in person by you, boss. After all, this position is very important, and I'm afraid I'll make a mistake."

"Just find it yourself."

"Boss, do you want a secretary?"

"This doesn't seem necessary, does it?"

"Boss, in the future, if we have something to do, we can ask our secretary to summarize the situation for you. If you have something to do and we are not available, we can also ask our secretary to handle it and serve as a liaison." Tian Jiahui simply didn't want to get too close to Li Song in private. If he needed to go to a garage to transport some goods next time, he could ask his secretary to go.

"Well, that's fine." Li Song nodded. Tian Jiahui and the HR staff would probably have to travel to mainland factories frequently.

We still need to recruit people. The technical personnel in the mainland factory can be from the mainland, but the management must still have people from here, and the cashier and finance must have their own people.

The mainland can provide the factory’s land and other things, but what about the workers’ wages and the funds for running the factory?

In the initial stage of motorcycle production, small-scale trial production was carried out to train workers, technicians and managers.

Once the trial product comes out, we will start building a sales network, both domestically and internationally.

Li Song was not in a hurry. He was happy as long as the production could be officially put into operation by the end of this year. Historically, next year is the year China starts to introduce various motorcycle technologies from abroad.

Many motorcycles have been produced in China in history, but the technology was imported, which means that the money was still earned by foreign companies.

For a long period of time later in history, the same thing happened to many industrial products. Although the factories were located in China, foreign companies took away too much of the profits, not to mention motorcycles, cars, and airplanes.

Even various daily necessities, consumer goods, beverages, etc.

For a long time, it seemed that domestic companies had a large number of workers, but in the end, too much of the profits were taken away by foreign companies. In fact, many foreign companies even survived by relying on domestic companies.

Li Song's plan is very simple: three years to develop cars, five years to develop chips, and ten years to develop a global positioning system.

Develop the first generation of intelligent system within 20 years.

Li Song has the confidence because he has a second-hand platform. Now he can customize the most advanced satellites from the Americans and buy the most advanced rocket engines from the Americans.

You can buy the most advanced rockets from the Americans and the fat bears for fun.

So when the motorcycle factory started production, I started setting up my own laboratory to see if I could unlock some technologies in advance, so that I could dominate the world with technology.

Even if the BUG in the laboratory cannot be used, we will still be ahead of our competitors, because we can buy the application of the technology that our competitors have just developed in the laboratory.

For example, various communication technologies are still in the laboratory and are still formulating standards, but you can offer rewards to produce finished applications.

That's how research competitions work, anyway: whoever succeeds first takes all, and whoever succeeds later loses. But I'm alone now, so I can't bring out a lot of things. I'll figure it out later when I set up a lab.

Tian Jiahui left to prepare for the opening of the business.

Tian Jiahui was still a little proud because his business card read "Deputy General Manager and Director of the Legal Department of Parkson Technology Group," although he was the only one in the Legal Department for the time being.

However, Tian Jiahui guessed that if Li Song wanted to build a factory in the mainland to produce motorcycles, the business would definitely not be small. After all, the motorcycle drawings showed how much money it would take to develop a complete set of technology.

"Alin, why are you out so early today?" Li Song was about to go out for lunch when he heard the doorbell. He opened it and found it was Alin.

"We're starting our vacation, from tomorrow to the end of the month. Brother Song, have you eaten?" Alin asked, wearing her school uniform.

The first time Li Song saw Arlene wearing a school uniform, it looked like the school uniform worn by female students in the Republic of China in the movies. It was a bit like a cheongsam, but shorter. Arlene also had her hair permed into wavy curls and was holding a shoulder bag in her hand.

"Not yet, let's go out to eat together?" Li Song asked directly after hearing this.

"I want to eat steak." Arlene looked at Li Song, feeling a little uneasy, because Li Song gave her the impression of being a wooden man, unlike the other boys.

But no boys have asked me out recently, and it doesn’t feel right for me to take the initiative to ask someone out.

"Okay." Li Song nodded. It happened that he hadn't eaten steak for a long time.

Arriving at the Western restaurant, Li Song looked at some of the more expensive steaks, such as those imported from America, South America, and Australia.

I started thinking about something in my mind, that is, there is also great potential in biotechnology, because a lot of biotechnology is confidential, and many seed companies and livestock companies only sell finished products, so you have to buy their seeds every year.

The same is true for many livestock breeds. You have to buy their first-generation breeding pigs, breeding cows, etc. Even a bottle of breeding pig tadpoles can be sold for thousands or tens of thousands of dollars.

"Brother Song?" Alin looked at Li Song who was silent and took the initiative to ask.

"Order whatever you want. I still have money for steak." Li Song thought Alin was asking about ordering.

"Yeah." Arlene was also confused. Li Song hadn't worked for so long, how much money did he have? In fact, Arlene was not asking about ordering food. She felt that Li Song seemed absent-minded and thought that Li Song was unhappy.

"Brother Song, how did your driving test go?" The steak Alin ordered was relatively cheap, after all, Li Song didn't look like he had much money.

"You can get it next week, probably on Tuesday." Li Song answered. Anyway, it was said to take 7-10 working days after the exam.

"I'm free this afternoon, tomorrow, and Monday, but I'm busy from Tuesday to the fifth day of the New Year." Arlene spoke again.

"No problem, please call me on the fourth day of the New Year, because I will have something to do at that time." Li Song nodded.

"Yes, I'll call you on the fourth day of the New Year." Arlene nodded.

The steak was served, and Li Song ordered two glasses of sweet white wine because he was not used to the dry red wine and wild boars could not eat fine bran. If Li Song were to choose for himself, Coke would be better with steak.

After dinner, Li Song and Alin went back to Li Song's home together. Alin looked up at the sky. The sky in Hong Kong Island was very blue and sunny in winter.

Li Song was thinking about the plot of the novel and didn't pay any attention to Alin next to him.

Because Li Song found that when he sat there thinking about the plot of the novel, sometimes he had no inspiration, but when he was doing other things, some inspiration came to his mind. Of course, Li Song's inspiration came from the plots of some novels he had read, and how to integrate these plots into the novel.

"Brother Song, what plans do you have for your future?" Alin thought about her own life and asked Li Song.
