MTL - Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up-Chapter 8 Acquired arcade factory
On July 21, 1977, after Bao Zixuan had breakfast, he went out under the advice of his mother. Originally, his mother wanted to go with him, but after his constant persuasion, Li Yulin finally gave up the idea. Law.
It was only 8:40 when Bao Zixuan arrived at the Federal Building, because his mother told him that He Mingcheng was a person with a strong sense of time. I asked him to meet him early. Although he was the employer, he still had to give him the respect he deserved. About 10 minutes later, seeing a black Toyota driving over, He Mingcheng rolled down the window and said, "Boy, that's ok! Wait a long time! Get in the car!"
After Bao Zixuan saw He Mingcheng who was coming, he got in the car and sat in the co-pilot seat and said, "Uncle He, it won't be long, how long will it take us to arrive! If you are tired, take a rest, I'll drive!"
He Mingcheng: "Don't worry! Uncle He, I'm not old yet! About 40-45 minutes! Besides, you don't want me to show you the way when you drive."
Bao Zixuan: "That's true." So he chatted with He Mingcheng about the factory!
He Mingcheng: "The two factories are located in Kwun Tong, Kowloon. They are not very far apart. One is because the boss and his family are planning to immigrate, so they are selling the factories and leaving now, but the factories are their own, and the price will be more expensive, more than 2 million yuan. At present, there are 56 workers in the factory, and most of them have been engaged in the assembly of arcade machines for 4 or 5 years. The other is that because of their poor management, they are now insolvent. It’s only been more than a year since I assembled the arcade machine, but the machines are all new, and I can get about 500,000 or so. I said, can you do this, kid! Look at how many people can’t support it after only one year.”
Bao Zixuan: "Don't worry! I have confidence in Uncle He."
He Mingcheng: "Where did you go, and when you're working in the future, I'll still call you President Bao, you'd better call me and a lawyer!"
"Okay, lawyer He." Bao Zixuan replied.
He Mingcheng: "Your reaction is fast! Mr. Bao." Hahahaha
The two quickly arrived at the first factory under the leadership of He Mingcheng, the Hong Kong Tong. Looking at the crowded workshops and dilapidated workshops, apart from the fact that the equipment is new, the factory has nothing to offer. And the boss is a layman, 40 years old this year, surnamed Zhong, a middle-aged fat man; he used to open a seafood restaurant, but later he heard that the OEM arcade machine made a lot of money, so he did this business. However, since he entered, the piracy industry in Hong Kong has been hit hard, and business has not been very good. Hearing that the two of He Mingcheng were here to buy the factory, they immediately introduced it enthusiastically!
Boss Zhong: "Lawyer He, Mr. Bao. Don't look at how small my factory is, but the equipment was purchased recently, and it's all new. How do you two think?"
Bao Zixuan: "Boss Zhong, the equipment is not worth much, second-hand equipment is easy to find, and most of the parts of the arcade are purchased and assembled from outside. It really depends on its own production, not to mention Xiangjiang, even RB has few. This strength. So how about you give a happy price."
Boss Zhong: "Xiaobao is always a cheerful person, so I'll stop talking nonsense, 800,000 yuan, one hand to pay, the other to the factory."
Bao Zixuan: "I'll think about it." After speaking, he left with He Mingcheng. Because in his opinion, the future development potential of this place is not very large, which will restrict the expansion of the factory. If there is no better one, he will choose this place. Going to another one now. At this time, seeing that the two were going to leave, Boss Zhong chased after them, and the two of them could negotiate the price! Good negotiation!
Bao Zixuan: "I'll go back and think about it, and I'll give you an answer as soon as possible." He got in the car and left. When the two left, Boss Zhong called one of his subordinates and said, follow up and see where they are going.
After Bao Zixuan and the others arrived at the second factory, they were very satisfied with this factory. Although it was a little remote, there were no other buildings nearby, just open space. The boss used to want to make machine tools, but because he didn't have the technology, he was able to assemble an arcade machine in the end.
He Mingcheng: "I see! It's very biased here. Security is also a big investment. It's not as good as that of Xiangjiang Island. The security is not very ideal. The owner's name is Pan Jianwen, who is almost 60 years old this year. Both sons and daughters are developing in Canada. He and his wife are the only ones left in Xiangjiang. The children are more urgent, and the people are good. I have known each other for a few years. This piece of land is inherited from their family, so the price will be higher. ."
Bao Zixuan: "Don't worry! I know Lawyer He. If it really doesn't work, I'll just do it." After the two arrived at the factory gate, there was a security guard to register. Seeing the security guard's actions, Bao Zixuan was very familiar with it. It seems that the boss has also found some people who have served as soldiers, which is relieved; but there are still some people from the mainland in this era.
Pan Jianwen: "Lawyer He, here you are, this is Mr. Bao! He is really young and promising, let me take you to the workshop to have a look! Although most of the equipment was bought a few years ago, the workers have maintained it well. "Listening to Pan Jianwen's words doesn't look like a businessman at all, this may also be an appearance, let's look at the situation first!
After walking around for a while, Bao Zixuan already had a general understanding in his heart. The factory buildings are all single-storey buildings, which are very simple and basic construction. In order to support the facade and facilitate living, a small two-story building was built next to the factory. The first floor is used as an office, and the owner's family on the second floor can live, which is quite convenient. There is also a row of dormitories that are the simplest, with a total construction area of about 2,000 square meters. According to the current price comparison of Xiangjiang, it should be about 2 million, but the land next to it is too large, with a total of 230 acres, even if it is cheap. Around 46-48 million.
Bao Zixuan: "Pan Sheng, I think it's okay, you can make a price!"
Pan Jianwen didn't make an offer, but asked, "After taking over the factory, Mr. Xiaobao also made arcade machines! To be honest, this business is not easy to do. I want to ask the workers how you plan to arrange it."
Bao Zixuan didn't expect that Pan Jianwen didn't offer an offer but asked the workers first, which surprised him a bit. But respond quickly! This could be a good boss! I want to think long-term for the workers.
Bao Zixuan: "Pan Sheng, you can rest assured, I will keep all the workers, provided they are willing to work for me and their ability to work can match their wages. If the workers do not make serious mistakes, I will not be fired. A worker, don't worry about that."
Pan Jianwen: "Okay, then 2.6 million. The factory is yours, provided you can accept all the workers."
Bao Zixuan: "Pan Sheng, there is no problem with the price, but I'm not afraid of your joke, I don't have that much money all of a sudden." When he heard this, Pan Jianwen's expression changed a little, as if he was saying that you have no money to make me happy! Then he continued: "Pan Sheng, you can see this, the price is calculated at 3 million, I will give you 1 million first, and give you the remaining 2 million within half a year. If the 2 million factory is not made up in half a year You take it back, and my 1 million is equivalent to giving it to you for nothing. I am also just starting."
At this time, He Mingcheng said, "Pan Sheng, even if the money cannot be given to you by then, our Xiaobao family will not ignore it."
Pan Jianwen: "Since lawyer He has spoken, I'll give you 2.6 million yuan. You can just give me 1.6 million yuan. But you have to be kind to every worker here."
Bao Zixuan: "Then thank you Pan Sheng. I heard that the land to the south of the factory is all yours. There are about 230 acres in total. I hope you can give me a year, and don't look for a buyer yet."
Pan Jianwen: "Hahaha, the ambition is not small, I want to see what your kid will develop in the future. Well, I can wait for a year, 60 million, no matter what the land price in Xiangjiang is, you will pay for it. The place is yours."
After the three chatted about some details, the main issue was the payment method and the treatment of workers. He Mingcheng began to prepare the contract, and the two sides quickly signed it after seeing no problem. Seeing that one year later, if Bao Zixuan pays out 60 million and then Pan Jianwen repents, he will have to pay 120 million Hong Kong dollars; Pan Jianwen said with a smile, "Lawyer He, you are my lawyer too!" After speaking, he laughed, But still happily signed. Bao Zixuan handed the prepared Standard Chartered cheque to Pan Jianwen. At this point, the factory is officially owned by him, although there is still 1.6 million in arrears.
At the same time, after hearing the report from his subordinates that He Mingcheng and Bao Zixuan had stayed in Old Man Pan's factory for a long time, and left with a smile when they came out, Boss Zhong told his subordinates that there was no need to make an appointment with Lawyer He. Find a home!
Little brother: "Big brother, that's it."
Boss Zhong: "He Mingcheng is a big lawyer after all, and that kid is so young, he can be hired; the background is definitely not simple, there is no need to do things too much, in case,,,," He didn't say, but the younger brother has already Understood.
