Chapter 208 Hot discussion in Hong Kong and Jin Yong’s interview
Kwun Tong:
“Brother, do you want to rent a shop?” A middle-aged man approached a young man and said: “ The location of our house is close to the future Ten Thousand Thousand Industrial Park of Changxing Industrial. I think brother, you are like a businessman. If you rent it, you will definitely make a fortune in the future."
The young man asked: "So. "Okay, why don't you do business yourself?"
The middle-aged man said: "We don't have the brains. I came from the mainland before and worked hard for half my life to buy a house here in Kwun Tong. I didn't expect it." Make a lot of money now.”
"You are indeed lucky." The young man smiled, and then asked: "Then the business in Kwun Tong has been much better than before recently?"
"There are so many good things, you don't know," The young man seemed to have opened up his chatterbox and said: "In the past, in places like ours, we didn't meet many outsiders, but now, they are all there;
You don't know how many people have come to this area. There are real estate speculators and business people. Because our house is close to the road, there are several groups of people who want to buy it for several times the price."
The young man said with a smile: "Don't do that. If you sell it, it will be worth more in the future."
The middle-aged man said: 'Of course, I'm not stupid. ’
The young man asked again: "Are there many people coming here to look for jobs?"
"A lot. In fact, these are the most talented people." The middle-aged man said: "In the past, there were squatter fires, and there were many people around Kwun Tong. There are some people wandering around, but after the news of the Ten Thousand Industrial Park was announced, many people came to the neighborhood.
I heard that Changxing Group has also started recruiting. The benefits are really good, as long as you apply. Although I am not working now, I can come to work near the construction site and do some small jobs to make ends meet.
If you really don’t have that much work, you can also advance your future wages and give it first. A little basic living expenses."
"The boss of Changxing Group is really a kind person." The young man said with emotion: "I have never seen a capitalist in Hong Kong pay workers in advance and on time. The salary is pretty good.”
The middle-aged man said with a smile: "Of course, the Post-it King is a rich man among us poor people. After he succeeds in starting a business, he is also very kind to his workers;
If you don't believe it, you can go to Tsim Sha Tsui and ask. Ask, anyone who says "The King of Post-it Notes" will give a thumbs up."
The young man asked curiously: "You also work in Tsim Sha Tsui?"
"Yes. , but just working in a supplier company of Renmin Changxing Group, the benefits are still not as good as those of Changxing Group.” The middle-aged man sighed and said: “It’s a pity that I can’t get into Changxing. I found out too late.”
The young man smiled and said: "That's enough now, it's still close to home."
"Yes." The middle-aged man nodded, and then reacted: "By the way, do you still want to rent a house? I've been talking to you for a long time, and you look like you're just talking?"
"I "It's a reporter from Xingxing Daily." The young man immediately said: "I want to conduct a detailed interview on the changes in Kwun Tong due to the emergence of Changxing Ten Thousand Industrial Park."
" ? Okay." The middle-aged man agreed after thinking about it. It would be good for them to be in the newspaper, but he still asked: "Why don't you interview the sticky note king?"
"They won't accept it either. I'll do the interview." The young man said with a smile: "My level is not good enough."
"Dramatic changes in Kwun Tong: The huge urban business opportunities brought by the Ten Thousand People Industrial Park"
On April 3, Galaxy Daily once again analyzed from a more professional perspective the unlimited business opportunities that a large factory in an industrial park with a population of 10,000 people has brought to a once poor area like Kwun Tong.
First of all, the most direct point is that a large number of poor people can have direct jobs, not only in the factory itself, but also in a large number of surrounding service industries, such as restaurants, amusement parks, movie theaters, etc.
The second is the sharp increase in local housing prices and rents. The first wave of beneficiaries are the local indigenous people and those families who are about to be demolished. They all regard the post-it king Yang Wendong as a living bodhisattva. Originally, I still had to work hard, but luckily, I turned into a landlord who could collect rent every day.
The third is that some real estate capital is also starting to make moves. They have sent people to check the terrain near Kwun Tong. Although there is no movement yet, there will definitely be investment in the future, and these investments will definitely bring benefits to the local people. to provide enough jobs and other economic benefits.
As soon as the newspaper content came out, it became a hot topic in Hong Kong.
The previous exposure only briefly mentioned that the Changxing Group had purchased 8.5 million square feet of land and was about to build an industrial park for 10,000 people.
But not many people know how much benefit such an industrial park will bring to the local economy and how many high-paying jobs it will bring to Hong Kong. Most people don’t understand.
Now that the content of the newspaper has been published, everyone knows that the factory they once looked down upon can actually drive so much economic volume once it reaches a certain scale.
In an office in Central:
"Boss, I think we should enter the real estate market in Kwun Tong." A middle-aged man said to his boss.
The boss nodded: "Are you also optimistic about this industrial park with tens of thousands of people?"
"Yes, I only knew about it originally, but after Galaxy Daily reported it in detail, I checked around some large factories in Japan. The economic impact is really huge.”
The middle-aged man said: “People in a small city rely on a factory, and as long as there is no problem with the factory, everyone in this place will suffer. Will all have Long-term and stable income.
It’s not just factory workers. Workers take money home and their families will consume. Consumption will drive all walks of life, and people from all walks of life will also consume, driving more. With the economic cycle, a factory with tens of thousands of people may be able to feed hundreds of thousands of people.
And these people all need houses. This is our opportunity. The sooner we enter, the better. .”
"Well, yes, I actually think so too." The boss nodded and said, "I now understand why Changxing Real Estate purchased land in Kwun Tong on a large scale before. It turned out to be internal information."
"With a factory like this, why not worry about doing real estate." The middle-aged man said with a smile: "However, they eat meat, and we can still drink a cup of soup."
The boss said: "That's okay. , go immediately We will inspect the area nearby, but I guess the Hong Kong government will definitely prepare to auction the land there. They are smart people.”
“Yes,” the middle-aged man said, “But no matter what, we can do it first. Buy an old building and take the first step before many people react."
"Okay, let's go ahead and do it." The boss agreed, "If there is a suitable one, I will definitely agree."
"Yes." The middle-aged man replied.
Many real estate businessmen in Hong Kong have also begun to discover the value of Kwun Tong in the future. They have not made any big moves yet, but they have also come to investigate.
As a result, the land prices in Kwun Tong began to rise, and the first wave of income groups from Changxing Ten Thousand Industrial Park began to get their own benefits, not just around the industrial park, but almost the entire Kwun Tong. Especially town centers, which will always be the heart of the local economy.
Tseung Kwan O:
A group of boys wearing patches were using rags to help one of them stop the bleeding on his injured hand.
"Aaron, let's not join the gang." A girl said with tears in her eyes: "I'm afraid you will really be hacked to death one day."
Aaron in his hand said: " I don’t want to join a gang. What can we eat?”
“Actually, there is a place to go.” A younger boy next to him said, “I picked up waste paper near a newsstand last time. Someone said that there is a huge factory in Kwun Tong. It is the factory of Yang Wendong, the king of sticky notes, and it will be hiring soon. "
"King of sticky notes?" Aaron heard the name. , almost forgetting the wound on his hand, and said: "Really? I have long heard that the Post-it Note King's factory has high wages and often gives out a lot of food;
It is in Tsim Sha Tsui, not far from us. It’s too far and I can’t go even if I want to.”
The girl who was still in tears just now said happily: "Then let's go and try it quickly. Kwun Tong is very close to us. It won't be a hassle to go back and forth to work in the future. It's much better than us running away to fight like this."
"But it's difficult to leave the gang." Aaron was a little scared.
The younger brother said: "Brother Long, just say that your hand is injured and you can't fight anymore. The gang won't embarrass you. At most, they won't give us any money.
If we can enter the factory, they won't care about us."
"Okay, let's go and try." Aaron also made up his mind: "Who would want to fight if there is a job? In fact, there weren’t many factories near Tseung Kwan O before.”
"Yeah, but let's wait until your hand is better." The girl said worriedly.
Aaron nodded: "Okay."
On April 4, Yang Wendong welcomed a guest at Hong Kong China Building.
"Mr. Cha, long time no see." Yang Wendong said to Jin Yong with a smile.
Jin Yong said with a smile: "Yes, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect that Yang Sheng would release such a big news without saying anything. When I found out, I was very emotional."
"What do you mean? Does Cha Sheng also own a lot of properties in Kwun Tong?" Yang Wendong asked with a smile.
“That’s not true.” Jin Yong shook his head and said, “When I heard that your industrial park could recruit tens of thousands of people in Kwun Tong, the first thing that came to my mind was that there were so many disaster victims. , Finally there is a way to survive.
I also appealed to all walks of life in Ming Pao to donate money to them, but it was only a drop in the bucket. Yang Sheng’s method is better. Now they not only have food and clothing, but they are expected to be exhausted soon. can live a good life ”
Yang Wendong then said: “Everyone takes what they need. I myself need a lot of people to work for me, and I am very happy to be able to help these people.”
This is not hypocritical. Being able to help others is because everyone has a little kindness in their heart. However, many times, there is no benefit to helping others, and there may be disadvantages, so it is dominated by selfishness or self-protection. Covered up.
For example, in the past life, many people were willing to "help the elderly" before something expanded, but after that, normal people who didn't have assets of "100 million" really didn't dare to do it, for fear of not doing so. Be careful of going bankrupt.
"Such long-term mutual assistance is the fundamental way to solve the problem." Jin Yong praised and said: "I'm afraid Yang Sheng is the only one in Hong Kong who can do this."
< br>"So, I also attach great importance to the development of industry." Yang Wendong nodded and said: "I hope that one day, my industrial scale will be several times or even ten times larger than it is now, so that it can almost cover a large number of people in Hong Kong. An ordinary person."
Jin Yong said with a smile: "Then I sincerely hope that Yang Sheng will succeed."
"Thank you very much." Yang Wendong asked again, "Cha Sheng, you. Why did you come here this time?”
He didn't think that Jin Yong came here just to flatter himself. He must have other purposes.
Jin Yong smiled and replied: "I want to give you a formal interview. I know that you have not accepted interviews from various media in the past few years. Maybe you don't like being too high-profile.
But the situation now is different from before. This industrial park with thousands of people has made you directly become the most famous Chinese businessman in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong government’s strategy for you in the future will definitely be different;
There is no point in continuing to keep a low profile. On the contrary, you should keep a high profile and become the most famous person in Hong Kong. Only one word can affect the Chinese economy in Hong Kong. "" That's true," said Yang Wendong. Nodding, foreign strategies are different at different times.
I kept a low profile before because my industry had little relationship with other people in Hong Kong, and the main market was not in Hong Kong. In addition, my career had just started, and I was worried about personal safety.
The industrial scale is now so large that the Hong Kong government needs to rely on itself to solve industrial problems and even social stability problems. Similarly, the derivative economic effects brought by its own factories can also affect local real estate.
It is no longer the same as before. As for safety, through investment in the past few years, I now have a professional team of dozens of people around me.
Jin Yong said again: "So I just want to do an exclusive interview. What does Yang Sheng think?"
Yang Wendong said: "Cha Sheng, in business, even if you want to do an exclusive interview, Shouldn’t my own newspaper be responsible?”
Jin Yong replied: "Of course it's okay. Your newspaper and my Mingpao customer base are different. In fact, there is no conflict. We can completely release the interview content together."
"This is not possible." Yang Wendong said He objected: "Maybe there's no harm, but it's not good for me either."
Jin Yong said with a smile: "Yang Sheng is really a qualified businessman. So, I heard that you have acquired a lot of theaters. Do you want to enter the film field in the future? I will give you the film and television copyright of a novel. How about you take this opportunity?"
"Any one?" Yang Wendong asked.
"Yes, both the shooting eagle and the divine eagle will do." Jin Yong replied.
Yang Wendong thought for a while and agreed: "That's okay."
For this kind of exclusive interview, he might take care of his own newspaper, but more importantly, he should spread the content and let the entire Hong Kong people know.
With the help of Ming Pao, it can be regarded as a method. Jin Yong is also very famous, especially among ordinary people.
Jin Yong said with a smile: "Okay, these are the contents of the interview, you have a look first."
"Sheng Cha seems to have been prepared for it." Yang Wendong took the paper , took a look.
There are three questions above; the first is the description of the entrepreneurial process, the second is future planning, and the third is the view on the Hong Kong economy.
It's quite satisfactory, and there are no unexpected questions. This kind of interview is usually a good-faith interview, and the content has been negotiated before the interview.
Jin Yong asked: "Do you need to prepare anything? ?"
Yang Wendong said: "There is nothing good to equip. I will tell you first. We will discuss the content later."
"Okay. Yong nodded: "Then let's ask the first question first."
Yang Wendong thought for a while and said: "The entrepreneurial process is actually very different from what is spread in society, but there is a slight difference."
People love self-made rich people, so Yang Wendong's story is sometimes used It was too much, but he had never corrected it before because it was unnecessary.
Now I am taking this opportunity to publish the official description.
Yang Wendong talked while Jin Yong took notes. It took almost half an hour to finish the first question. Except for some important things that could not be mentioned, Yang Wendong also talked about everything else.
“Haha, Yang Sheng’s entrepreneurial experience is really wonderful.” Jin Yong praised.
"It's not bad." Yang Wendong smiled.
Jin Yong asked again: "What about future plans?"
Yang Wendong replied: "This question is more general. It is not convenient for me to say much about my future industry plans. This It is a commercial secret.
But it will affect the planning of the outside world. I can say one thing, let’s talk about Changxing Industrial. Although its scale can be said to be the largest factory in Hong Kong, this is just the beginning;
In the future, Changxing Industrial will have more new products, which according to my estimation will create more jobs than it does now.”
"This is really good news." Jin Yong asked: "Will it still be invested in Kwun Tong?"
"I'm not sure about this, but it should be in Hong Kong." Yang Wendong replied.
Such a question needs to be blurred, and an accurate answer may cause trouble in the future, because an affirmative answer may even cause Kwun Tong housing prices to skyrocket further.
Although it will benefit Changxing Real Estate in the short term, in the long run, if you don’t invest there, it will cause negative effects, and the gains may outweigh the losses.
Jin Yong nodded and said: "It's great to be in Hong Kong."
"I am a Hong Konger, so I am naturally willing to invest in Hong Kong to help the Chinese in Hong Kong get rid of poverty." Yang Wendong said with a smile.
“Haha, we Chinese should indeed be like this.” Jin Yong asked again: ‘Then the third question, what do you think about the future of Hong Kong? '
"I am very optimistic about the future of Hong Kong, so almost all my current assets are in Hong Kong." Yang Wendong replied: "I believe that sooner or later, Hong Kong will become the richest city in Asia, worthy of "Compared to Tokyo."
"Compared to Tokyo?" Jin Yong was stunned. After a moment, he asked: "Yang Sheng, is your metaphor too exaggerated?"
Yang Wendong shook his head and said: "No, the culture of East Asian countries has always pursued hard work. Japan Just like us Chinese, but developed decades earlier;
As long as we are given the opportunity to develop peacefully, I believe that we Chinese can achieve the same success, or even be stronger. ”
This was evidenced before he traveled through it in his previous life. Not only the mainland, but also other economies such as South Korea and the Bay Area are very good.
The East Asian Chinese District Cultural Belt, as long as there is development Opportunities can lead to rise. Although there are many external reasons, if they are successful in several places, they must have the same internal reasons.
Jin Yong nodded and said: "Yang Sheng's understanding is indeed different. "
Yang Wendong added: "Although Hong Kong's economy is also due to its port advantages, the success of a large number of factories is also due to the efforts of us Chinese. ”
Jin Yong nodded: "Yes, it is true. Hong Kong has developed really fast in recent years."
Yang Wendong agreed: "Yes, and I estimate that it will develop even faster in the next ten years." , especially industry;
Chasheng, use your newspaper to send a message. I am very optimistic about the news. If you are interested in the future of the sub-industry, factory owners in Hong Kong can try this direction."
"Electronics industry?" Jin Yong also knew what it was, and then asked: "Yang Sheng seems to be. "You haven't invested in the electronics industry?"
"Not yet." Yang Wendong smiled.
Naturally, he would not give up on the electronics industry. He had even considered it a long time ago, but he never ended up personally doing so.
One is that the existing industrial production capacity is enough to give him a headache. If a few popular products are introduced, it will be troublesome if they cannot be produced or have quality problems.
The second thing is that even if there are popular products, they may not be produced because there is no foundation in the electronics industry in Hong Kong. This requires the entry of a large amount of capital. Otherwise, even if Yang Wendong has something Highly creative electronic products, but all raw materials need to be imported, so working for others is still in vain.
Therefore, it would be good for him if he could encourage Hong Kong industrial capital to enter the electronics industry early.
"Haha, okay, it seems that Yang Sheng will have new glory in the electronics industry in the future." Jin Yong smiled and said: "Then let's discuss the real estate market in Hong Kong? This should be the same A lot of people are paying attention.”
Yang Wendong shook his head and said: "I have nothing to say about this industry. Although I have some properties and a real estate company, it is not my main business."
Although he is very fond of real estate, this is because real estate Can bring huge wealth.
But I will definitely not regard real estate as my core business. At most, it will become one of them.
Jin Yong nodded and said: "Okay, this issue is indeed not easy to discuss, so that's it for today's interview. I will give it to you when I finish the content tomorrow;
If you confirm there is no problem, I can publish it together with the Hong Kong China Daily.”
"Okay." Yang Wendong nodded and said.
Jin Yong added: "Yang Sheng, the content of this interview is estimated to have a small impact on Hong Kong's economy, so as a friend, I need to advise you to be cautious when accepting other interviews in the future, because Your influence is already very great.”
“I understand, thank you for reminding me.” Yang Wendong said.
When the influence is sufficient, one sentence can indeed determine the short-term economy of a place.
This is also the norm in the future.
The next day, Jin Yong personally delivered the content.
Yang Wendong took a look and found that the content of the interview was similar to yesterday's. However, the words in the newspaper could not be spoken words. Jin Yong also used his literary talent to add a lot of descriptive words to make the whole content more interesting. More interesting.
"How is it?" Jin Yong asked while drinking tea.
Yang Wendong said: "Okay, let's go out like this."
"Okay, I'll go find Qin Zhiye and Qin Sheng." Jin Yong said with a smile.
PS: Please give me a monthly pass
The evening chapter will be a little later, around 11 o'clock.
