Hong Kong Variety Show: The Development Notes of a Boss

Speaking of which, although Lu Yongqiang had met Lian Haolong several times and had drinks together twice, they were not very familiar with each other. They were not even drinking buddies, but just acquaintances.

Five grown men sat in a private room. Lu Yongqiang and Lian Haolong were talking about interesting stories in the underworld. The atmosphere was not awkward. However, for Lian Haodong, Dadong and Shouhou, the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

Dadong is a martial arts fanatic. He doesn't have much to talk about with Lu Yongqiang, and naturally has even less to talk about with others. After entering the private room, even when Haodong toasted him with a drink, he just drank with him without saying a word.

Shouhou is a talkative person, but he is selective about the type of people he is with. With people he is familiar with, he can talk to you about all sorts of things, but if he is not familiar with them, Shouhou will say much less.

After arriving at the private room, although Shouhou seemed to be chatting with Lian Haodong, it was Lian Haodong who spoke most of the time, and Shouhou just uttered "um, ah, oh" word by word.

In less than ten minutes, Lian Haodong couldn't stand it anymore. He opened the door of the private room and gave an order to the people outside.

Not long after, the door of the private room was opened and eight girls walked in.

Seeing so many women coming in, Lu Yongqiang didn't care. He was just playing along.

However, Lian Haolong glared at his brother with some dissatisfaction. He invited Lu Yongqiang to drink, not just to chat, but to talk about some serious business.

The reason why they didn't talk about business was that he and Lu Yongqiang were not very familiar with each other. He wanted to chat and have a drink together, and then talk about it after they got a little familiar with each other.

Now that there are so many people in the private room, it's not convenient to discuss this serious matter...

Seeing that his eldest brother was a little dissatisfied, Lian Haodong explained: "Brother, you and Mr. Lu are having a lively chat, but my brothers Dadong and Shouhou are bored to death, so I want to find some girls to liven up the atmosphere.

Brother, if you and Mr. Lu find it noisy, I will take the two brothers to the next room.

Lian Haodong finished speaking, and before Lian Haolong could say anything, Lu Yongqiang spoke first: "I think it's great. How can we go to the nightclub to drink without girls? I felt it was a little lacking just now."

As he spoke, Lu Yongqiang stood up and walked to the front of the women, looked at each of them one by one, then reached out and pulled a woman back to sit on the sofa.

After Lu Yongqiang sat down, he saw that the woman did not sit down, but stood beside him with a look of helplessness on her face.

Lu Yongqiang reached out and patted the woman's thigh, saying, "Why are you standing there? Sit down and pour me some wine."

As he spoke, Lu Yongqiang turned to Lian Haolong and teased him, "Brother Long, the girls in your place are all good quality, but their service awareness is a bit behind the times. This nightclub is also considered an entertainment service industry, so you still need to pay more attention to the service, otherwise you will lose a lot of money."

Lian Haolong was a little confused by Lu Yongqiang's words. He didn't know what to say for a moment and could only smile and get away with it.

Seeing his eldest brother was a little embarrassed, Lian Haodong came to the rescue and said, "Ali, the person next to you is Mr. Lu from Hongxing, the boss of Tuen Mun. You have to be attentive and serve Mr. Lu well."

After Lian Haodong finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang said with a smile: "What do you mean by serving? We just want to have fun together."

As he spoke, Lu Yongqiang picked up two glasses of wine, handed one to the woman next to him, and then said to her with a smile: "Ali, right? Let's have a drink together."

Chatting about underworld gossip with a fat guy like Lian Haolong was nowhere near as enjoyable as drinking with a beautiful woman. Although Lu Yongqiang wasn't a lecher, he still found it quite enjoyable to take advantage of her.

Lu Yongqiang had a sharp eye. The woman he had just picked, Ali, was the most beautiful of the eight women. Not only did she have a stunning figure, but her face was also beautiful. She was pure yet had a hint of charm. She was truly the best...

Lu Yongqiang took the initiative to find Ali to drink a drink. Ali lost her previous restraint and relaxed. After putting down the glass, she hugged Lu Yongqiang's arm and rubbed it against her chest...

After that, not only did she let Lu Yongqiang take advantage of her, she also toasted Lu Yongqiang with wine from time to time, and even pulled Lu Yongqiang to sing a love song together.

While Lu Yongqiang was having fun, Shouhou was also having a lot of fun. He actually had his arm around a woman, playing a little game with the woman on one side, and then drinking from a cup with the woman on the other side.

Shouhou was not a good person to begin with. Before he met Yang Jianhua's cousin, Shouhou was as poisonous as a scorpion. Not to mention that he was partying every night, at least he was never short of women around him.

After meeting Yang Jianhua's cousin, Shouhou wanted to go ashore and was ready to give up the entire forest for a tree. During that period, Shouhou did change a lot. He even became a monk for several months and didn't even go to nightclubs.

But the flower has intention but the water flows on, and after pestering Yang Jianhua's cousin for half a year, she really has no interest in him, so Shouhou had to give up. If he continued to pester her, he was afraid that they would become enemies.

After giving up, the skinny monkey returned to his true nature, even becoming worse and playing even more extravagantly than before.

Dadong is a bit boring. He is a piece of wood. Apart from Zhu Wanfang, he has no feelings for other women. No matter how beautiful they are, they are just skeletons in his eyes.

Although there was a woman sitting next to this guy, they were not close to each other and there was a long distance between them. Apart from drinking, Dadong ignored the two women.

There were two women around Lian Haodong, and they were having a lot of fun. Not long after they started playing, Lian Haodong actually drugged the two women, which made Lu Yongqiang frown.

Lian Haolong also had a woman with him, but he didn't interact much with her. He would still chat with Lu Yongqiang from time to time. After seeing Lian Haodong drugging the two women, Lian Haolong's expression changed, but he didn't stop them. He must have been used to it.

After about an hour of excitement, the woman next to Lu Yongqiang got up to go to the bathroom. Lian Haolong gave the woman next to him a look, indicating that she should leave.

After the woman left, Lian Haolong sat down next to Lu Yongqiang and said, "Brother Lu, I heard you have a way to get high-end red wine. Could you help me get in touch with someone? I don't need a lot. I just want to sell it in my store."

Lian Haolong finished speaking, and Lu Yongqiang sighed. This was really what he feared. Lian Haolong invited him to drink today, and Lu Yongqiang guessed that Lian Haolong wanted his help with something, and it was most likely about red wine.

After Lu Yongqiang broke off his cooperation with Xiahou Wu, he handed over his sales channels to Xiahou Wu.

Lu Yongqiang has two sales channels. One is to cooperate with Xinji and directly sell the red wine to Xinji, letting Xinji become the general agent of Gangcheng.

Another channel is to supply goods to a foreigner who sells high-end red wines and has sales channels throughout all Southeast Asian countries.

After Lu Yongqiang gave him the red wine, the foreigner would repackage it and create a new brand to sell it.

The red wine provided by Lu Yongqiang has no problem with taste, but it has a problem that it cannot be stored. If it is stored for a year, not only will the red wine taste bad, but there will also be a lot of sediment in the wine, making the wine look a little turbid.

Therefore, the sales strategy of the foreigner is to sell the red wine in high-end Western restaurants and high-end hotels. Every time he replenishes the stocks to Western restaurants and hotels, he will take back the red wine that has been stored for a long time.

All the recovered red wine would be destroyed later. In order to compensate the foreigner for his losses, Lu Yongqiang offered him a price that was 10% lower than that offered by Xinji.

After Lu Yongqiang and Xiahou Wu suspended their cooperation, Lu Yongqiang no longer cared about the pricing and sales methods, and left it to Xiahou Wu, Xinji and the foreigner to discuss it on their own.

In the first month, Xiahou Wu still supplied goods to both parties according to Lu Yongqiang's previous price. However, in the second month, Xiahou Wu unilaterally demanded a 10% price increase on the grounds that the raw materials had increased in price. The price on the foreigner's side was the same as that on Xinji's, which meant that the foreigner's price had increased by 20%.

But Xiahou Wu also said that after the price rises, there will be no limit on the supply quantity, and we will provide as much goods as required.

This is naturally a good thing for Xinji. Although the price has increased, they can sell more goods. Overall, they will make more money than before.

But the situation wasn't the same with the foreigners. Their sales were essentially locked in, and a 20% increase in the purchase price meant their profits were 20% smaller. Furthermore, they were opening up their supply to Xinji, which was also disadvantageous to him.

In the past, Lu Yongqiang only supplied Xinji with a fixed quantity of goods, which meant that he wanted to lock Xinji in Gangcheng and prevent Xinji from selling goods outside Gangcheng. This was also intended to protect the interests of the foreigners.

Xinji is selling inferior red wine as good quality, in other words, it is selling fake wine. This is not only an illegal business, but also affects other people's business. If it is a small matter in Hong Kong, people may not care, but if it gets out of hand, it will be very troublesome.

But it's different on the foreign side. They have established a new brand. Although this is also suspected of counterfeiting, it has nothing to do with Lu Yongqiang, and it has not touched other people's cake. No matter how big a noise you make, you don't have to worry about anyone causing trouble.

Lu Yongqiang wanted stability, so he was naturally willing to side with the foreigners. But Xiahou Wu was looking for profit, so he naturally didn't consider these things.

By the third month, the foreigner's business could no longer continue because he discovered that the brand he founded also had low-priced counterfeit liquor, and the taste was exactly the same.

This foreigner is a person who can take it or leave it. Since this business is not very profitable, he simply stopped doing it. He directly cancelled the brand and gave up this business.

The foreigners don't do this business, and Xinji alone can't handle so much goods. Xiahou Wu asked Lu Yongqiang to help him introduce customers and open up sales channels.

Xiahou Wu was very generous and promised to give Lu Yongqiang five million for every new customer he introduced.

Lu Yongqiang agreed to the money that was delivered to his doorstep.

Afterwards, he introduced Dafei, Zhang Shun and Ma Wangjian to Xiahou Wu, and then Lu Yongqiang also got 15 million from these three people.

He introduced them to a way to make money and only charged them five million, which was not an expensive price. The three of them paid the money and also owed Lu Yongqiang a favor.
