Hong Kong Movies: The Boss's Global Empire

Chapter 97 You are too bold to come to Zhang's house to threaten me

Generally speaking, there is always a bottom line when doing business.

The Zhang family does business very differently. They have fully grasped the essence of capitalists.

When capital enters the world, from head to toe, every pore dripping with blood and filth! The Zhang family not only understands this concept, but also implements it to the end!

For the sake of a 300% profit, this family not only risked their lives but also abandoned their moral conscience. For example, back then, Hong Kong Island did not have tap water, and everyone relied on well water, river water, and other sources for domestic water.

Many people don't have the means to boil water, so they often have roundworms in their stomachs. In fact, this is also a common situation in mainland China.

At that time, whoever held anthelmintics had a stable source of income.

After much effort, the Zhang family obtained the Far East distribution rights for the Shandulian Western Medicine product from the British Jializi Pharmaceutical Company.

Generally speaking, you can make a fortune just by reselling this Sand Lotus.

As a result, the Zhang family, who are good at business, took their money-making nature to the extreme!

At that time, the net weight of each package of Sandalwood sent from Jializi Pharmaceutical Company was 35 ounces. The Zhang family divided it into small bottles of 1 ounce each and changed the label to Zhang's Jinqian brand trademark.

Each bottle costs HK$100!

Because Sandalwood is the core ingredient of anthelmintics, most pharmacies will make it into Fu Ji San and Hua Ta Tang after buying it, and then sell it to the public.

Because of the Zhang family's actions, the pharmacy had no choice but to raise the prices of Fu Ji San and Hua Ta Tang! This was how the Zhang family earned their first pot of gold!

That's fine, in business, everyone has their own way.

The Zhang family dared to sell at this price, and the market was willing to accept it, so there was nothing much to say. But what really made the Zhang family wealthy was the Anti-Eagle Movement in the 1950s!

At that time, under the leadership of the Americans, mainland China was under a global blockade, and only Hong Kong Island was secretly doing business with the mainland. Among the countless supplies shipped out of Hong Kong Island, Western medicine was naturally indispensable.

At the time, the Zhang family was already a major player in Western medicine in Hong Kong, holding the distribution rights for a variety of life-saving Western medicines, including penicillin. Furthermore, the Zhang family was also the president of the Hong Kong Western Medicine Association and the Wuyi Chamber of Commerce, a position of considerable power.

Logically speaking, this is the time to serve our country!

With the Zhang family's capabilities, if they are willing to serve the country, they can definitely do better than the Huo family.

Unfortunately, the Zhang family practices the principle that as long as there is profit, even if the devil needs it, he dares to sell it against his conscience!

Under the leadership of the Zhang family, a group of Western medicine distributors, headed by Causeway Bay Western Medicine Street, used tactics such as injecting glucose into penicillin to sell a large number of inferior Western medicines to mainland China.

Moreover, it is more expensive than gold!

The Zhang family prospered over the years of fighting against the eagle!

By the time the Anti-Japanese War ended, the Zhang family had become a wealthy family in Hong Kong Island and had turned their attention to real estate and the stock market. Why did Lu Wendong know so much?

Of course, it was because in his previous life, the people who brought him out would often use the Zhang family as an example to warn Lu Wendong that since he had entered the financial circle, he had to throw away all his morals and conscience.

Killing people and setting fires earns you a gold belt, while building bridges and roads leaves behind corpses!

The Zhang family, who live together and share their wealth, are just like the Li family in Causeway Bay. They truly embody the meaning of "a disaster that will last for thousands of years"!

In later generations, the Zhang and Li families were both wealthy and powerful families in the world of fame and fortune. They were not only prosperous in the business world, but also very successful in the political world. Lu Wendong took another look and then walked towards the Zhang family.

The Zhang family doesn't have a doorman.

Lu Wendong could only knock on the door.

A moment later, a young man opened the door. He was Zhang Yuliang's second son. "Who are you?"

The young man had never met Lu Wendong before, but despite being unfamiliar with him, he had a vague impression of him. "My humble name is Lu Wendong."

The young man exclaimed, "It's Mr. Lu."

He remembered that this person seemed to have some conflict with the Li family and had opened something like Golden Leopard Seafood Buffet. Dad really disliked this person and thought he had no manners!

The young man immediately said, "Mr. Lu, you've come to visit unexpectedly. What's the matter?" "I want to meet Mr. Zhang Yuliang and discuss some business matters with him."

The young man hesitated and said, "Wait a moment."

Among the wealthy Chinese families in Hong Kong Island, the Zhang family is the most special.

He never participates in any large-scale social events and rarely appears in public, let alone accepting media interviews.

If it weren't for the recent dispute over the inheritance, the Zhang family would have gone completely unnoticed by Hong Kong people. That's right, the Zhang family's cohabitation and shared wealth system can no longer be implemented...

The young man quickly returned, shaking his head, "I'm sorry, my father isn't here."

Lu Wendong said, "I know Mr. Zhang has a lot of troubles, and I also know that Mr. Zhang doesn't like to be in front of others." He said calmly, "If Mr. Zhang doesn't know my background, I can reintroduce myself."

"I am the current leader of the Hung Hing community!" "Causeway Bay is my territory!"

Lu Wendong looked at the young man with a threat in his eyes.

Although the Zhang family has stepped back from the spotlight and its assets are mainly in real estate and the stock market, they still control Causeway Bay's Western Medicine Street.

The young man's face darkened. "Mr. Lu, are you threatening us?" "Think carefully."

"The Li family is willing to make peace with me!" "Why?"

Lu Wendong's face darkened. "Can your Zhang family be more powerful than the Li family? Go tell your dad again, I'll wait for one minute at most!" "After one minute, even if your Zhang family begs me on their knees, I won't come again."

"you!"

The young man pointed at Lu Wendong excitedly. He had never seen anyone as arrogant as Lu Wendong in his life. Lu Wendong didn't say much, just pointed at the Patek Philippe on his right wrist.

He's different from Li Huanggua. Now that he's rich, he won't pretend to wear an antique watch. It's just a Patek Philippe worth a few hundred thousand. Can't he afford it?

For Lu Wendong now, this is not considered showing off his wealth! It's just a normal display!

The young man didn't dare to delay and closed the door again.

Lu Wendong looked around with his hands behind his back. The Zhang family had no security at all. In his eyes, they were just pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered. Soon, the door reopened, and the young man said coldly, "My father invites you in."

"young people."

Lu Wendong patted the young man's right cheek: "Don't be arrogant in front of me! You know the ins and outs of your Zhang family. I don't even dare to compete with your Zhang family!" The young man's chest heaved up and down with anger. His eyes were like knives, and he really wanted to cut Lu Wendong into pieces.

Lu Wendong walked in with his hands behind his back.

The Zhang family's ancestral home was built in the 1950s, thirty years later. Even if the workmanship was excellent back then, it's now rotten. Lu Wendong walked in like a lion, as if surveying his territory.

There was only an old man in his fifties sitting in the living room, making tea, and there was not even a helper beside him.

Lu Wendong knew why. The Zhang family had always practiced a policy of cohabitation and shared wealth. Usually, the helpers were all members of the Zhang family, such as the eldest wife's daughter-in-law and children.

Now, the first and second wives are all suing Zhang Yuliang, and they have moved out early.

Zhang Yuliang has only one son...

Then just make your own tea!

"Hello, Mr. Zhang, I'm Lu Wendong."

"Young man, I know you."

Zhang Yuliang had no intention of asking Lu Wendong to sit down. He slowly said, "You dare to come to the Zhang family and threaten me? You are too bold!"

Lu Wendong sat down opposite Zhang Yuliang and said, "Mr. Zhang, we both know each other's background."

"Your Zhang family is no longer in control of the Wuyi Chamber of Commerce. At the same time, your current income mainly comes from rent and dividends."

"Not many people in the underworld will follow you!"

"At the very least, they definitely won't dare to go against me, Hongxing!"

The Hong Kong population is mainly composed of the Five Districts, Hakka, Chaozhou, and Minnan. In addition, there are also Southeast Asians, Hunan Province, and foreigners.

Among them, the Wuyi people account for nearly 20% of the share!

Especially in the 1950s and 1960s, the Five Districts were at their most powerful. The gangs and societies formed by them were spread all over Hong Kong, and their influence was everywhere. It was also because of this that the Zhang family, who took advantage of the influence of the Five Districts, was able to make a fortune.

Unfortunately, after the 1960s, the Chaozhou Gang and the Hakka Gang rose to power, and the Wuyi Gang was beaten back step by step.

In addition, Hong Kong Island was transforming into a manufacturing city at the time, and many people made their first fortunes in manufacturing before moving into real estate. Meanwhile, the Zhang family began to retreat from the spotlight.

The reason was simple: the mainland had defeated the American-led coalition and had become a major power that attracted worldwide attention. The Zhang family, knowing what they had done, would never dare to show their faces in public.

So as to start the transformation.

For the Zhang family, this is definitely a good choice. Unfortunately, everything has its pros and cons!

The Zhang family went from being a major trader to a landlord, so they couldn't give enough benefits to the people who had helped them. Who would do something without benefits?

Therefore, the Wuyi Gang turned to other tycoons! Bang!

Zhang Yuliang slammed his teacup hard. "Mr. Lu, what on earth do you want to say?" "If you have nothing else to say, please leave. I have nothing to discuss with you."

If he had nothing to do, Zhang Yuliang would stay at home, looking at documents, newspapers, and watching TV. Of course he knew Lu Wendong!

It is because of this that Zhang Yuliang has no good impression of Lu Wendong!

As a man who had fought his way up from the treacherous business world, Zhang Yuliang attached great importance to rules and even more so to class! After seeing that Lu Wendong dared to confront the Li family, he felt that this young man had no rules.

Lu Wendong smiled and said: "Mr. Zhang, of course I came to you to discuss business. Do I want to chat with you?" Zhang Yuliang was not easy to deal with Lu Wendong.

Coincidentally, Lu Wendong also had no good feelings towards Zhang Yuliang. "Mr. Zhang."

Lu Wendong said, "I know you're planning to immigrate recently." Wheelock's acquisition is inevitable!

One reason is that the Madden family was pessimistic about the future of Hong Kong Island and had always wanted to sell Wheelock. At that time, they even considered selling it to Jardine Matheson.

It was just mixed up. The other one is Zhang Yuliang!

After the Sino-British agreement was signed, Zhang Yuliang's first move was to emigrate! He was afraid of being liquidated!
