Starting out as a drug dealer in 1988

"Mr. Zhao, I'm a reporter from the Jinling Evening News. As far as I know, the Provincial Television Factory is suffering from severe losses, and its products are no longer up to date. What prompted you to acquire this company?"

After both parties signed, the next step was naturally to answer reporters' questions.

Originally, Zhao Wenhao wanted to ask reporters from his province to ask questions first, but he didn't expect that someone would get there first.

Not only that, the questions asked were quite sharp.

However, Zhao Wenhao was well prepared and would not be stumped by such a question.

"The Provincial TV Factory does have some problems at present, but its merits outweigh its flaws. It still has its own unique features."

"Mr. Zhao, can you tell us in detail?"

Another reporter had no intention of letting Zhao Wenhao go, and asked again immediately.

In fact, reporters who have done their homework are very clear about the current situation of the provincial television factory.

Even many people know that Hengyuan Electronics' acquisition of the provincial television factory actually carries certain political tasks, and it is not the so-called flaws outweigh the merits as Zhao Wenhao said.

"Everyone thinks the Provincial Television Factory is suffering heavy losses, but they fail to see the other side. For example, they have more than a thousand experienced workers, all of whom will become the treasures of our company.

In addition, the provincial TV factory is not inferior to some other companies in terms of technological accumulation, which is also what we value.

Hengyuan Electronics is not short of money, but it has only been established for a little over four years. The most important factor in achieving its current success is its emphasis on technological development.

The Hengyuan brand is recognized by the general public, and this is also because of its technological leadership.

Therefore, when we learned that the provincial television factory had the technology we needed, our company unanimously decided to acquire it at all costs.

This is also the only way for Hengyuan Electronics to grow and develop."

Zhao Wenhao spoke eloquently and seemed quite satisfied with the acquisition of the provincial television factory.

Zhou Xian, who was not far away, touched his chin, wanting to laugh but being too embarrassed to do so.

In order to persuade Hengyuan Electronics to acquire the provincial television factory, he put in a lot of effort, and finally even went so far as to involve the provincial government before Hengyuan Electronics agreed to the acquisition.

As a result, Hengyuan Electronics' direct and indirect losses will exceed 5000 million.

Although, as Zhao Wenhao said, the Provincial TV Factory did have certain advantages in terms of workers and some technical skills, these were not the main points.

Therefore, Zhou Xian owed a considerable favor this time.

"Mr. Zhao, now that you've acquired the provincial television factory, when will your company launch Hengyuan-branded televisions? Also, given the characteristics of Hengyuan electronic products, you've always been technologically ahead of other brands. Will you demonstrate that again this time?"

The reporters asked again.

Zhao Wenhao chuckled and continued, "Thank you for the reporter's praise of our company. As you said, Hengyuan Electronics' products are always ahead of their peers in certain technologies from the beginning of their design. I believe that anyone who has used our other products will understand this.

In fact, the company has been engaged in the research and development of televisions since last year, and has made certain breakthroughs in certain technologies.

However, due to the principle of confidentiality, I cannot answer your questions for the time being.

In addition, our initial plan is to complete the development of new TVs by May of next year, and have them off the assembly line by July at the latest. By then, we hope to surprise everyone."

……

The signing conference lasted for an hour and a half and finally ended.

The signing ceremony didn't take long, as the reporters were curious about Hengyuan Electronics' acquisition of the provincial TV factory and had many questions.

This includes the recent incident where someone caused trouble at Hengyuan Electronics, and several senior executives of the provincial television factory were arrested for corruption.

Fortunately, Zhao Wenhao had considered what reporters would ask before the press conference, so the press conference went smoothly.

The next thing is to officially start the integration of the provincial television factory.

This task has been assigned to Yuan Bin, who will draw personnel from various departments to form a temporary team to integrate the provincial television factory.

"Hello, Mr. Zhao, I'm Kuang Youzhi."

A week had passed since the signing press conference, and on that day, Zhao Wenhao finally received a call from Hong Kong Island.

"Boss Kuang, is there any clue?"

Zhao Wenhao couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised. He knew that Kuang Youzhi called because there must be news about the matter he had instructed him to do before.

Last time, Zhao Aiguo was deceived into buying a fake glass bracelet.

At that time, Zhao Wenhao remembered that he would marry Yang Yue after the New Year, but he had not yet bought her a wedding gift.

Therefore, Zhao Wenhao entrusted Kuang Youzhi to help search in Hong Kong Island.

Kuang Youzhi had found a few pieces of jewelry before, but Zhao Wenhao wasn't very satisfied. Therefore, the matter was repeatedly delayed until now.

"Mr. Zhao, it's confirmed. I just received news that Christie's will be auctioning a necklace on December 12th. This necklace is quite valuable, inlaid with a total of 16 diamonds, the two largest of which are eight carats.

These are just embellishments, and the most important thing is that there is a transparent sapphire in the middle of these diamonds."

At this moment, there was a photo in front of Kuang Youzhi, and on it was the necklace he had just introduced.

When Zhao Wenhao heard this, he immediately became interested.

Although he couldn't see the picture for the time being, he knew how valuable such a necklace was from Kuang Youzhi's description.

"Have you found out his reserve price at the auction?" Zhao Wenhao asked anxiously.

Kuang Youzhi on the other end of the phone nodded repeatedly: "Yes, their reserve price is 800 million Hong Kong dollars. However, I estimate that if you want to win it, you need to prepare at least 1200 million Hong Kong dollars, or even more."

"So expensive!" Zhao Wenhao scratched his head.

He could imagine that such a necklace must be worth a lot of money, but the auction reserve price of 800 million Hong Kong dollars was still a little beyond his expectations.

"Mr. Zhao, according to reliable information, this necklace came from a princess of a European royal family."

Kuang Youzhi was eager to try.

Although he didn't buy it, he really wanted to see the value of this necklace.

In the history of auctions in Hong Kong Island, there are not many precious necklaces worth more than 20 million. This is the first time that Kuang Youzhi has the opportunity to participate in one.

Therefore, he strongly encouraged Zhao Wenhao to go and take a look. Even if he didn't buy it in the end, it would still be a way to gain some knowledge.

However, Kuang Youzhi now manages all of Zhao Wenhao's assets in Hong Kong Island. According to the latest valuation, the property units alone are worth more than 10 billion.

In addition to stocks, futures, etc., Zhao Wenhao's total assets in Hong Kong Island have exceeded 18 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Therefore, he knew that Zhao Wenhao had this ability.

Now it depends on whether he is willing to spend this money to please his girlfriend!
