Chapter 405
Furama Hotel.
After seeing off Qiao Beiyan and Li Fangjie, they took Qi Juan to pay New Year greetings to Mr. Zhong Qu. Zhang Qing and Qi Juan went straight to the Furama Hotel, where the presidential suite had been opened in advance.
Even though it has a history of several decades and is slightly outdated, the presidential suite that costs HKD 100,000 per night is still the most luxurious one.
After enjoying each other for two hours, Qi Juan breathed a long sigh of relief and said lazily and charmingly: "Okay, I can take care of it for another half year."
Zhang Qing said speechlessly: "Half a year?!"
Qi Juan chuckled and said: "I said, you... you can't be free anyway."
Zhang Qing was dumbfounded. Qi Juan glanced at him and changed the subject with a smile: "What's going on in the paper mill?"
Zhang Qingdao: "The Java Sinar Light Group almost went bankrupt during the financial crisis and reached an unsustainable point. The major paper mills and large areas of fast-growing forests in the country still need to invest for at least one year to see returns, and Du Juan happens to be mutually exclusive.
Supplement. Among the stationery we produce, there are various homework books, notebooks, soft copies, the printing business of "Ming Pao", as well as posters, picture albums, etc., which all require a lot of paper. Of course, Du Juan's family will definitely not be able to digest it all.
.However, because I am optimistic about the mainland market, I think this is a long-term and profitable business."
Qi Juan laughed and said: "You really eat from upstream to downstream, leaving nothing for others! Let me tell you, eating alone in the mall is a taboo."
She said half jokingly and half seriously.
Zhang Qing shook his head and said: "Benefits will be shared in the future, but not yet."
Qi Juan asked curiously: "Why?"
Zhang Qing said with a smile: "Benefit sharing is mostly cross-shareholding in equity. At present, there are not many companies in China that are qualified to exchange shares with me. Those who are qualified cannot exchange them."
Qi Juan looked up at the ceiling and said with a smile: "You are too fast, who can catch up with you?"
Zhang Qing smiled bitterly and said: "You think too highly of me. It's easy to conquer a country, but it's hard to sit on it. The industries in the mainland are easier to say, but here in Hong Kong, not to mention ATV and Crocodile T-shirts, Ming Pao has been privatized.
The internal resistance to me is still unabated. As of January 15th, the turnover rate has exceeded 10%. This is still because of the financial crisis, and we are afraid that the turnover rate will be higher. Once ATV..."
Seeing him shaking his head, Qi Juan looked more serious and said, "So you choose to make an announcement after half a year? At that time, almost all stock traders will go bankrupt, so they won't dare to leave?"
Zhang Qing said with a smile: "There are reasons for this, and the other thing is that when others are laying off employees and cutting salaries, I will do the opposite. Those who leave can just leave, and those who stay will not only have their salaries reduced, but also have their salaries increased."
."
Qi Juan thought for a while and said: "Just showing kindness is not enough. I suggest you announce it one month before the predicted financial crisis."
Zhang Qing was startled when he heard this. After thinking about it for a while, his expression turned strange. He looked at Qi Juan and said, "Is this move of yours called murderous and heart-breaking?"
If the announcement is made one month in advance, probably 30% of the people who apply for resignation will have to do so.
However, Johnson once again attacked the Hong Kong stock market. Under the collapse of the stock market, it is estimated that less than two out of ten white-collar workers in Hong Kong could survive.
Most people still have to pay for their buildings, and it will be more difficult to find a job when the building is about to collapse...
On the other hand, instead of having their wages reduced, the employees at my old employer’s house had their wages increased significantly.
How tormenting is this for people who are desperate?
Most likely we have to go back...
Qi Juan laughed and said: "The art of combining kindness and power will never go out of style. Hong Kong Island is a capitalist system. If you show your kindness in advance, they may not accept the favor, and they will think that you are deliberately trying to win people's hearts. Even with a high salary, they still look down on you in their hearts.
You think they are great. When they leave first and then come back to apply for a company, reject some of the most popular ones and agree to others. You can recruit some and recruit some. This way you can unite the majority and let them know that this job is actually very important.
Precious. Anyone who comes back and has some conscience will be thanked. By the way, sign a long-term contract with them and increase the liquidated damages.
In a capital society, talking about human relations is a bit funny. Hong Kong Island and the Mainland are completely different. You can learn from Qiao Beiyan on this point."
Zhang Qing nodded slowly and said: "It makes sense. The production relations in Hong Kong Island have been established for decades. If I use the methods of mainland state-owned enterprises to win people's hearts, I will probably become a laughing stock."
As he said that, he looked at Qi Juan and said: "How about taking over Du Juan directly before you graduate? Du Juan and Tianhong will manage it together..."
Qi Juan smiled and said: "Not very good. Although I am somewhat smart, I lack experience in managing large enterprises, which cannot be compensated by talent. Even if I advance to Tianhong, I have to start from the bottom management. Zhao Qiang is actually very good at it.
Yes, if we train a few more senior managers, we will be able to keep up with the situation. Currently, Tianhong Heavy Industry has 20,000 people. When the steel plant reaches a larger scale, it will have another 20,000 to 30,000 people. I will be able to take over all of them when I am thirty years old.
He is a genius. With so many companies under Du Juan's command, the total number of employees may be even greater, and to manage them..."
She now has to read Tianhong's internal documents every day and delay her sleep time until after one o'clock in the morning. The notes she has recorded already fill three books, and they are still increasing rapidly.
In fact, Zhang Qing is the same, but he trusts Zhao Qiang more, so Zhao Qiang makes most of the daily company affairs decisions, but even so, it takes him at least three hours a day to review documents that require him to review.
As for Zhao Qiang, she also spends a lot of energy and time dealing with official duties at night.
Managing such a large group company is extremely stressful.
Under this kind of pressure, love is of course still sacred and important, but it is impossible to treat love as everything in life like ordinary young men and women, and to throw everything away without thinking about food and tea...
This is also where Qi Juan’s mature cognition lies.
Zhang Qingdao: "So, the company is already contacting IBM in the United States. After the New Year, Zhao Qiang led a team to visit, study, negotiate, and invite them to come and train our executives. This money is spent to save me money.
Heart."
Qi Juan smiled and said: "It's best to save worry. Anyway, what you are most in need of right now is cash. Don't you want to go?"
Zhang Qing thought for a while and said: "I'm going to go there in April to make a movie. When will you leave?"
Qi Juan said: "It's the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, school is about to start. How are you? Do you miss me?"
Zhang Qing nodded and said, "I'll take you to school."…
Qi Juan laughed in surprise: "Hahaha! Real or fake? No need!"
Zhang Qing shook his head and said: "I think it is necessary."
Qi Juan's eyes softened a lot, and she said softly: "It's so necessary, then what are you waiting for?"
Zhang Qing reacted for a moment, then suddenly rushed forward...
…
No. 1 Peak Road, the Chung Family Mansion.
The living room is filled with the fragrance of bookcase ink.
Mrs. Zhong Qu, Shen Mengyi, warmly entertained Zhang Qing and Qi Juan.
At first, Shen Mengyi felt uncomfortable with the fact that Zhong Qu loved a young man from mainland China so much.
Although Zhong Qu does not have a harmonious relationship with his biological children, her natal family still has many outstanding nephews. Why should she treat an outsider so favorably?
He could sense the indifference, so Zhang Qing rarely visited him.
But things are different now. With the stock market crash in Hong Kong, the market value of "Ming Pao" has dropped to the bare minimum. If they had not taken action, their wealth would have been devalued by hundreds of millions!
The feeling now is that I have made hundreds of millions, so I naturally welcome the God of Wealth...
After Zhang Qing politely thanked him for the tea, he saw that Zhong Qu didn't look well, so he asked with concern: "Zhong Sheng, what's wrong with you?"
Before Zhong Qu spoke, Shen Mengyi quietly winked at Zhang Qing and shook her head.
Zhang Qing was a little surprised, then listened to Zhong Qu smile bitterly and said: "I didn't expect that like Uncle Liu, he would end up alone in his old age."
Zhang Qing understood and had nothing to say for a moment.
Qi Juan smiled and said: "There is no overnight enmity between children and parents. There is some resentment in their hearts, but it is just because the love is too deep."
Zhong Qu was startled when he heard this. After a while, his complexion actually improved a lot. He looked at Qi Juan and said with a smile: "I have said before, Ajuan, you are the prototype of Huang Rong, and it is indeed true. Zhong Lingyuxiu, Tian Huicong
Ying.”
Qi Juan joked: "Won't Zhong Sheng sell Ming Pao to me?"
Zhong Qu laughed loudly and said, "Selling it to Qingzai means selling it to you, right?"
Zhang Qing smiled and said: "Zhong Sheng, I heard that many people from Ming Pao are scolding you? You are always being blamed."
Zhong Qu laughed and said: "Is this considered true? In the 1960s, I was scolded the most. At that time, I opposed some phenomena in mainland China and was called an unscrupulous lackey. Some people wanted to burn me to death. What I wrote later
This "Heroes of the Vast Sea" was considered by Wanwan to be singing praises for the north, and it was even put on the assassination list. Well, those were the years when the world was in turmoil. Now these are just drizzle."
After a pause, he continued: "Many people still feel relieved that the continuous revealing reports on mainland dams have not become a mouthpiece for the north. If such news can be guaranteed to be fair and neutral in the future, more and more people will be attracted by it.
of recognition.”
Zhang Qingdao: "As long as it is a factual report, it is fine. For example, this time, it was reported after argumentation, which will win the readers' trust more. Zhongsheng, those three commentaries of yours are very spicy. Is there anyone who can give you a message?"
?”
Zhongqu's current commentary is recognized as a divine commentary at home and abroad. It will be reprinted by many newspapers for a fee, including Ta Kung Pao, etc., and has a great influence.
After the dam incident, he wrote extremely sharp critical articles, suggesting that the mainland should put the lives of hundreds of millions of people first and severely punish those responsible, especially the big tigers.
The third article even named several people by name, which was unprecedentedly intense.
It was these three current reviews that revived the sales of "Ming Pao"...
But as far as Zhang Qing knows, some people in the mainland are very unhappy...
Zhong Qu laughed and said: "Of course it was someone who sent the message, an old friend. However, I declined politely. I'm afraid because it happened? But you are under more pressure, right? How about it, still
Can you bear it?"
Zhang Qing chuckled and said: "There must be a lot of haters, but fortunately, everything is focused on economic development now. I have money now and have invested a lot, so there are many people to protect me. Moreover, it is not all bad.
At least some people who originally thought of me as a meal and wanted to take a bite of fat meat were scared off. No one can resist you when you keep naming me and scolding me!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
