Chapter 328 Twins
Yang Wendong is not prepared to participate in Hong Kong's catering industry. The main reason is that the market size is too small, unlike supermarkets, which can expand outwards if there is an opportunity.
Simple pastries and Chinese catering are limited by too many factors and it is difficult to become a large chain brand. However, Europe and the United States, which have the most economic spending power today, do not like this kind of taste. As for the mainland in the future, That's so far away now.
Although it is only a dozen years since the reform, it will become the industrial production site of Changxing Group. However, if we want to develop the economic potential of the mainland market, especially the service industry, we will have to wait at least 40 years. It is nothing to consider now. significance.
As for Western restaurant chain stores, such as KFC, McDonald's, and even Burger King, it is easy to become a chain store because of the standardization of food.
However, at present, Yang Wendong has not considered investing too much capital overseas. The timing is not right yet. His capital has not been fully deployed in Hong Kong. Even if he invests overseas, he will only consider a few golden opportunities, such as Wal-Mart and early future electronics. Giant companies and so on.
Three days later, the time came to February 24th:
On this day, Yang Wendong came to the office. Just after reading the latest newspapers, Zheng Zhijie and Liu Huayu pushed a hotel-like The dining car came in.
Before the people arrived, Yang Wendong smelled a scent, then put down the newspaper and asked with a smile: "Did you bring me lunch?"
Zheng Zhijie said with a smile: " Yes, Yang Sheng, Lao Liu and I have visited many well-known cooked food restaurants in the past few days, and then we have selected a few good ones. I have a few items from each one, and I invite you to try them.”
"Okay, go to the small lounge over there." Yang Wendong said with a smile.
Although it is an office space, Yang Wendong often eats here. Sometimes he misses lunch during meetings, so there is a room in the building dedicated to eating.
Of course, it is usually a normal lunch, and hot pot with a lot of oil smoke is still not acceptable. Although he doesn't care about these things very much, he can't let his office smell.
A few people came to the lounge, and Liu Huayu quickly opened the window and the exhaust switch above. This design was originally designed to exhaust smoke, but the boss did not smoke, so no one dared to smoke here, but there was no smoke. Used it, but still have it.
Zheng Zhijie brought up a lot of roast duck, roast goose, barbecued pork, suckling pig parts, pork chops and other delicacies one by one.
"It looks good." Yang Wendong also had a great appetite.
Zheng Zhijie said: "Yang Sheng, you can taste it."
"Okay." Yang Wendong also picked up the chopsticks and tasted them one by one.
Try everything. After talking for a while, Yang Wendong said: "I feel pretty good, maybe It’s also because I’m not a professional food taster, so I can’t tell the difference.”
“It’s really hard for us normal people to tell the difference.” Zheng Zhijie said with a smile: “These are also chosen by us, so it’s difficult. Decided which ones to choose to settle in Carrefour ”
Yang Wendong thought for a while and said: "Then just like Watsons, just randomly test Carrefour with customers. Since it is a century-old store, it is probably not bad.
In addition, we need to talk first If we can invest, we can only talk about the next step if we have this prerequisite, otherwise we will easily make wedding clothes for others."
"Okay," Liu Huayu agreed, "I have already tried it out. Two family stores that have been passed down for three generations, and several others are still willing to consider it. After all, we can provide high-quality commercial locations. As long as they want to make money, few will refuse.”
Although Carrefour also charges, But it is impossible for partners not to make money. There are so many large supermarkets, and each one makes a little bit, which adds up to a staggering amount.
For the average small businessman, this can be said to be a pie falling from the sky. If it weren’t for Carrefour’s urgent need to optimize its services, under normal circumstances, this kind of opportunity would have to be squeezed by itself. This is possible only if you break your head.
"Okay." Yang Wendong took a look at the various cooked dishes and asked: "Isn't there roast chicken or sausage?"
Liu Huayu replied: "Yang Sheng, in Hong Kong cooked food restaurants, chicken is generally White-cut chicken or soy sauce chicken, There are very few grilled ones, only Europeans and Americans like to eat grilled chicken;
As for sausages, there are very few, these are more Western-style.”
“Well, it doesn’t have to be. Roast chicken, it all depends on the customer "Yang Wendong paused and said: "I have another idea. We have lowered the price of eggs to the lowest in Hong Kong, so what I am thinking is that in addition to eggs, I also want to create a kind of cooked food. A similar strategy. ”
If a supermarket wants to attract people, it cannot rely on just a few cheap products, because not everyone likes certain things, such as eggs, and only a few people will know how to do it no matter how often they are used. Buy it, the same goes for rice.
Therefore, if you want to attract more customers, you have to work harder on food. The cheap roast chicken and sausages that many supermarkets loved to make in the previous life are suitable targets.
Liu Huayu also understood and said: "Yang Sheng, I understand what you mean. In this case, we have to reduce the cost of raising chickens on a large scale just like eggs, but the raw materials for sausages are Pork, this is not easy to operate in Hong Kong.”
In Hong Kong, there are chicken and pig farmers, but there are many small-scale chicken farmers, but there are fewer pig farmers. Most of the pork in Hong Kong. They are all imported from the mainland or Southeast Asia.
Yang Wendong shook his head and said: "The existing chicken raising model in Hong Kong is probably not able to meet the demand I plan. My goal is to make it easy for many people in Hong Kong to afford our roast chicken or other products." Chicken food;
If that doesn’t work, you can invest your own money, find professionals to manage it, then buy land in the New Territories, and then recruit some people from the mainland. Some of them should know how to breed. See if you can It can’t be done.”
Last year, Hong Kong had a lot more people from the mainland. These people have abilities in many fields. Breeding is the foundation of an agricultural country, so there should be some people who know how to do it.
Recruiting yourself can also help these people, and you can also use their abilities to feed yourself.
"Okay, I'll find someone to do some research." Liu Huayu replied. Zheng Zhijie also said: "The land in the New Territories is less valuable the farther north you go. In many places, as long as you invest, you will basically get half for sale and half for free."
"That's a lot. Buy a little, but don’t go too far.” Yang Wendong smiled and said, “Buy a bigger one, so that the poultry we raise can have more room to move.”
Land prices will plummet in a few years, but some desolate places are really not afraid of this, because now when land prices are high, they are worthless.
It’s just that these lands basically belong to the Hong Kong government. If you don’t have a reason to develop it, the Hong Kong government won’t give it to you. But if you have it, then maybe the Hong Kong government will sell it more.
Liu Huayu also understood what the boss meant and said with a smile: "Okay, then I will choose a good place first and then tell you. We must also consider transportation, otherwise it will be troublesome to get in and out."
Yang Wendong After thinking for a while, he said: "The New Territories side It's definitely not possible. Don't think about taking the land route. Buy a large area of land near the sea.
And then build a small dock so that hundreds of tons of boats can get close. This will be enough to transport various supplies and supplies. Freshwater.
As for the electricity, I couldn't do it myself. I had to ask CLP Power to run a wire through it. "
Liu Huayu said with a smile: "Okay, our Changxing Group is also a major customer of CLP Power, and now CLP Power is able to generate electricity smoothly, thanks to Yang Sheng's rapid investment in water transportation. I don't think they will refuse this request. "
"Okay, this matter will be settled like this. Yang Wendong nodded and said: "First we will introduce cooked food as normal, and then we will enter the breeding industry ourselves. Although it is a bit harder, we can keep the cost to a minimum." ”
Hong Kong has always had a chicken industry, even in the 21st century, and even more so in this era.
Mainly because of the limitations of the technology of the times, meat Frozen shipping is too expensive, and the same goes for live animals
Moreover, there are a large number of refugees in Hong Kong now, and they still have some academic qualifications. In addition, we have transportation and food trade here. Taken together, we may be able to control costs to a lower level.
Of course, the biggest benefit is to take the opportunity to hoard land. After ten or twenty years, the land in the New Territories that is now worthless may still not be as valuable as the current cities and towns in the future, but the value growth rate , definitely the highest.
Liu Huayu agreed and said: "Okay."
Zheng Zhijie said: "Yang Sheng, as long as Liu Sheng chooses a good location, then all the infrastructure behind it will be left to me. Piers and houses are not a problem."
Liu Huayu said with a smile: "Haha, maybe if we work together, we can build a big village in the New Territories."
"That would be better." Yang Wendong nodded.
When a certain number of people are employed, villages can be formed. If there are more people, small towns are also possible.
However, it is difficult for factories to operate in this way, because early factories require a large number of technical personnel and other hard conditions, so it is unlikely to be built in an uninhabited place, but simple breeding can be done.
If a small village can be formed, then it can be developed slowly based on it. When the Hong Kong government tries to build towns in the New Territories in the future, then it will make a lot of money for itself.
Of course, these are just conjectures
If the chicken industry develops well, maybe you can create a civilian fried chicken brand similar to Wallace. If you open up franchises, the scale will inevitably expand very quickly. As a result, the demand for chickens will increase, and chicken farms will You can also expand your land hoarding opportunities.
Even in the New Territories, if you really have hundreds of thousands or even millions of square feet, it will be incredibly valuable in the future.
And if done well, it can also lower the price of meat in Hong Kong, which is also a good thing.
But no matter what, it will definitely take a lot of time to make. It is estimated that it will not be achieved until the late 1960s.
In the afternoon, Yang Wendong, who was checking Western news, suddenly received an emergency call from the hospital. Bai Yushan, who had already been admitted to the VIP ward of the hospital's obstetrics and gynecology department, was about to give birth.
Immediately, Yang Wendong rushed to the hospital, but at this moment the mother had already gone in, and he could only stay outside.
Several people from the Yang family and several people from the Bai family also rushed over and were waiting anxiously at the entrance of the hospital.
Because they were twins, the doctor’s feedback was that the birth was not going smoothly, which made Yang Wendong, who had always been calm and calm, very worried.
It was not until 8 o'clock in the evening that the lights in the operating room suddenly went out. Then, a doctor came out and said to Yang Wendong: "Congratulations to Yang Sheng, you are a twin boy and a girl."
