Chapter 351 Justice of the Peace
The retail industry will be the foundation of many real industries. For example, in the previous life, Wal-Mart had hundreds of billions of dollars in retail sales a year. Just making a few purchases to a city can activate the city's economy. .
In addition, supermarkets are still in their initial development stage around the world. This is the time for me to show my talents in this field. However, in this field, if I want to develop it through my own investment and spread it all over the world, it is almost impossible. It's possible that Wal-Mart in its previous life was only good in the United States, but it still couldn't compete with local giants when it went abroad. The same is true for the European retail industry.
Therefore, investment is the most appropriate. By investing in future retail giants, you will not only be able to obtain huge future profits, but you may also have the opportunity to influence their demand orders to a certain extent.
Carrefour here can be regarded as a success if it has been able to gain part of the Asian market in the past 20 years. In the future, when the mainland changes its policies and it gains part of the mainland market, it will be enough to become the world's top retail store. One of the giant companies.
After Lin Youjing left, Yang Wendong took care of his official duties again. He took a look at the time and saw that it was only after 10 o'clock. Seeing that there was nothing else to do in the middle of the year, he called his assistant, arranged for the motorcade to go home, and caught up with lunch at home.
In the Yang family villa, when Yang Wendong appeared, Su Yiyi asked in surprise: "Brother Dong, why are you back?"
Yang Wendong smiled and replied: "The company's affairs are about the same. It’s nothing big.”
Today's Changxing Group is completely a professional manager model. The boss, Yang Wendong, is only responsible for investments in strategic directions or the participation of some large investments. He basically doesn't ask about specific matters, and there are too many. It's really tiring to ask. Death, and he doesn’t understand many things himself.
It is now the middle of the year, and the short-term directions of each business department have been decided, so he naturally has a little more free time.
Su Yiyi said: "Then why don't you call back in advance? We have finished lunch."
"It's okay, I can just eat a little." Yang Wendong said.
He did forget it and remembered it only after he left home. However, it was not a big deal in itself and there was no need for his family to wait for him, so he did not send a notification back.
In the era without mobile communications, these were all inconveniences, even for the super rich.
At this time, Bai Yushan came out with her younger sister, each holding a twin child, and then said: "Then I will heat up the food."
"Yeah, okay." Yang Wendong saw Bai Yushan take out the dishes from the refrigerator and then pour them into the pot to heat, and said: "Over there in the United States, the R&D center of Honor Electronics has made a device that can heat meals in a short time. , I have asked them to send How many units are there? Let’s try it at home.”
After hearing this, Bai Yushan asked curiously: “How short is it?”
“Two or three minutes? Right? It depends on how much food there is." Yang Wendong replied.
After almost two years and hundreds of thousands of dollars of investment, the R&D laboratory in the United States finally made a miniaturized microwave oven.
However, this miniaturization is compared to the existing large microwave ovens, which are still much heavier than the previous ones.
"Really? That's so much more convenient." Bai Yushan said in surprise.
Yang Wendong smiled and said: "It is because of saving time that we can have a market. When this market is mature, revenue can easily exceed 100 million."
The core of home appliances is saving time. Time, energy saving, entertainment, comfort, etc., as long as it can have one of these, it is a great invention. Microwave oven is like this. It can heat food quickly, save people's time, and save the need to wash pots. troubles.
The food would have to wait for a while, so Yang Wendong went to play with his three children. The eldest son Yang Zhiwen was 3 years old. He would play with a bunch of building blocks, and Su Yiyi was also accompanying her.
Two twins are much more difficult to raise, as anyone who has had twins knows.
This is also the reason why Bai Yushan called her sister. It's not that she can't afford to hire someone, but that the baby only stares at her mother and insists on being held by her. It's really hard for one person to carry it, and naturally a baby can't tell the difference. Mother of Qing twins
Even Yang Wendong, the father, was not very satisfied when he held him
“Here, here, he always pushes me with his feet.” Yang Wendong and his little daughter are gentle After a while, he handed it over to Bai Yujie.
Bai Yujie said with a smile: "You still need to spend more time with them. Babies only like people who stay with them for a long time."
"I know." Yang Wendong nodded: "But mother Isn’t it because my father is working hard outside that I can stay with him for a long time? ”
Unless they lie flat, even rich people cannot have their parents take care of their children at home all the time. This is a stable social division of labor; let alone an ordinary family. If the mother works full time, the father will be exhausted. But there is nothing we can do.
Bai Yujie agreed and said: "That's true, but we women can also make money."
"Of course you are different." Yang Wendong smiled and asked: "Chinese University School starts in September?”< br>
Bai Yujie replied: "Yes, I will go to work then."
"Yes, university teachers are still very popular." Yang Wendong smiled and asked again: 'By the way, what subjects in physical education do you teach? ’
Bai Yujie smiled and said: "Yoga, badminton, table tennis, running, these are all available." "And yoga? Specializing in teaching female students?" Yang Wendong asked in surprise.
Bai Yujie said: "Yes, although there is no women's college in Chinese University, all departments are co-ed. However, some subjects are divided into men and women, especially sports, such as basketball and football. It’s a male subject, and yoga is a female subject.”
“Oh, yes.” Yang Wendong nodded.
In the early years, schools in Hong Kong were separated for boys and girls. With the development of society, this custom was gradually replaced, but it may take longer to realize.
Bai Yujie added: "I heard that Changxing Group is the sponsor of our school?"
"Yes, our sponsorship of education can be considered a part of charity." Yang Wendong replied: "And we are also motivated by ourselves To meet the needs of science students, provide targeted assistance to schools and poor students. ”
Supporting local education means supporting yourself. This is something that any large local company needs to do, and charity itself can also avoid taxes. Fame can also be gained.
"This is really good. Many people can't afford to go to college." Bai Yujie said with a smile.
Yang Wendong said again: "Yujie, I just have something to entrust you with. My sponsorship of poor students relies on the lists provided by the school. Some of them are not easy to verify. You are in the school. It’s much more convenient. Please help me check if there is anyone who is just pretending to be a fake person, or someone who is really in need but can’t get help.”
There are unspoken rules everywhere. Even if he invests his own funds, he doesn't believe that the leaders of Hong Kong schools are saints. Even low-rent housing is robbed by many rich people.
It’s just that, after all, it’s a school, and it’s not convenient for my own people to go in and investigate.
Bai Yujie thought for a while and agreed: "Okay, I will pay attention to the situation in the school."
"Well, there are also some people who are particularly talented in science." Yang Wendong added: "This is the talent I need. Please help me pay attention to it."
"Okay." Bai Yujie agreed with a smile.
Yang Wendong said: "I won't let you do things for free. As long as there are results, you will make money."
"Haha, that's not necessary. I'm not short of money." Bai Yujie After thinking for a while, he said: "But in the end The water shortage is so serious recently that I have to come to your place often to get water."
"Okay, you can also accompany your sister when you come." Yang Wendong naturally agreed, and then asked: "Your family. It can be considered a villa area, and there is no water. Is it too much?”
Bai Yujie shook her head and said: “It’s useless in the villa area. The water and electricity are all public resources. The entire area is connected together. If there is no water in the area, it’s useless. , unless it’s in a super-rich area like yours.
But it’s still much better than other places. We still have a little water in our house, but the water pressure is very low, and sometimes the water is cut off, which is very troublesome. .”
"It would be nice to have water. Many people have difficulty even drinking water." Yang Wendong sighed.
My efforts in transporting water have alleviated the drought in Hong Kong a lot. However, if the fundamental problem is not solved, it will not be successful. Some people still have difficulty drinking water.
Of course, it is definitely much better than before. At least it does not need to be drained every 4 days. Sometimes it runs out of water again.
Fortunately, it is already the summer of 1963. This autumn, there will be some rain in South China and some in Hong Kong. This will alleviate a lot. According to the original history, when the Dongjiang water enters the port next year, the factory will open. By early 1965, Hong Kong no longer had to worry about water problems.
After I traveled through time, I did a great thing that benefited Hong Kong and the people.
Bai Yujie said with a smile: "Then I have to thank you Yang Dashan. Now the entire Hong Kong media is praising you on this matter." '
She never imagined that the peer who sneaked into her class to listen to the professor would now become the most well-known super rich man in Hong Kong. At the same time, he also helped millions of people in Hong Kong solve the water shortage problem. This kind of achievement, if it were in ancient times, would probably be rewarded by the court, and it would be possible to seal it.
"Haha, people should be more modest." Yang Wendong smiled: "Just know it yourself, don't say it everywhere."
This is indeed a matter of honor. In the future, in This drought will also be recorded in Hong Kong's history, and so will my own behavior.
Coupled with the reputation and official praise it brings, in general, this investment is still very cost-effective, especially by coincidence, Watsons is making a lot of money from its pure water business. .
The next day, Yang Wendong had just arrived at the office. His assistant came over happily and said: "Sheng Yang, the Hong Kong Governor just called and you have been nominated to become a Justice of the Peace."
