Chapter 157 Semi-finished Computer
"Yes, Su, I told her that I will mention this to you, but I can't guarantee whether you will write a song for her." Jodie Foster replied.
"Well, it's okay. Let's ignore it for now. I will come over to find you in a while. Remember to miss me." Su Cheng said with a smile.
"When? I'm so looking forward to it!" Jodie Foster asked excitedly.
"Probably from the end of September to October." Su Cheng thought for a while and said.
"Okay, honey, I'm waiting for you, I can't wait to see you." Jodie Foster said softly.
Sioux City’s trip to Beautiful Country this time was certainly not just to find Jodie Foster to continue the romantic relationship between the two. He also had more important things to do, to find Jodie Foster. Special, just by the way.
In October 1978, affected by the oil crisis, there will be a short-term stock market decline in both Hong Kong and the United States, followed by a two-year bull market.
There are many things that can be controlled. Sioux City has already set its sights on many listed companies.
In fact, in the next two years, the Hong Kong stock market rose the most among the major stock markets in the world.
Between 1979 and 1980, among the world's major stock markets, the United States' S&P 500 rose by 41%, the British FTSE All-Index rose by 33%, and the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index reached a terrifying 197%!
During the outbreak of the "First Oil Crisis", from 1973 to 1974, the world's major stock markets basically fell like a stock market crash.
But during the "Second Oil Crisis", from the end of 1978 to 1980, the performance of global stock markets was completely different.
Although the same economic performance is "stagflation", the U.S. stock market did not fall sharply, but rose. In the past two years, the S&P 500 Index has increased by as much as 41%, which is like a bull market trend. , the stock market performance of other major countries and regions around the world also mostly rose.
This gives Su City an opportunity to hunt the stocks of large listed companies.
Under normal circumstances, the outbreak of the second world oil crisis will definitely make investors think that the stock market will continue to be like the first world oil crisis, and that global stock markets will have a stock market crash-like decline.
During this period, if Su City wants to control certain listed companies, it will be very easy.
Because no one knows that the impact of the second oil crisis on the stock market is not a bear market, but a bull market!
It is inevitable that many investors will panic and sell their stocks.
So, when no one can guess that there will be a bull market next, Su City will secretly conduct a sweep-style acquisition.
However, it is only August now and there is still a month to go, so there is no rush.
After hanging up the phone with Jodie Foster, Su Cheng received a call from Yang Chaoye not long after.
"Boss, today, on behalf of Su Group, I finally reached an agreement with Hong Zhiguang, the boss of Sanyo Headhunting Company. The price is 35 million Hong Kong dollars and we will fully acquire it. The contract can be signed at any time. As for Mr. Liu, he has After returning from the beautiful country, I also talked with him privately, and I can say with certainty that except for Hong Zhiguang leaving Sanyo Headhunting Company, the other employees will continue to work at Sanyo Headhunting Company," Yang Chaoyehui reported.
"They won't go to England to continue their business with Hong Zhiguang in a while, right?" Su Cheng asked.
“Please rest assured that we have signed a strict industry agreement with Hong Zhiguang. Within five years, he is not allowed to work with all employees of Sanyo Headhunting Company. If there is a breach of contract, we can ask for more than 50 % compensation. In addition, I have privately investigated more than a dozen elite headhunting consultants. Not only do they have no objection to working for you, boss, but many of them even feel that their future is bright. Working under you, boss, will definitely be better than before. It's better, and their families are all in Xiangjiang, so they can't just follow them to the UK," Yang Chaoye explained.
"Well, if that's the case, then I'm relieved and let's just sign the contract." Su Cheng said. Last time, the price Hong Zhiguang wanted was HK$40 million. This time, Yang Chaoye and Hong Zhiguang agreed on a price of HK$35 million, which can be regarded as a concession by the other party.
In itself, Sioux City can accept 40 million. As long as the main team of Sanyo Headhunting Company is still there, it is worth this price.
However, since it can be reduced by five million, it is naturally the best.
Five million Hong Kong dollars is not much for Sioux City. It can also buy a few villas.
"Okay, I will sign a contract with Hong Zhiguang tomorrow, and Sanyo Headhunting Company will become a subsidiary of Su Group from now on!" Yang Chaoye said with a smile.
"After taking over Sanyo Headhunting Company, I will give you a task." Su Cheng said.
"Boss, please speak."
"Ask Sanyo Headhunting Company to find a top manager in the oil industry. You also know the situation of my subsidiary Tianwen Oil Company. Now we are in urgent need of one. A capable person will be at the helm, Zhang Qizheng has other important things to do, and he cannot stay in this position forever," Su Cheng said directly.
"Okay, I will tell Mr. Liu about this tomorrow and ask him to complete this matter for you, boss, as soon as possible!" Yang Chaoye said with a smile.
"Well, even though he is doing something for me, when calculating his salary, he will be given as much commission as he deserves," Su Cheng said.
We can’t just find talents for the boss and they don’t need any money, so they don’t get a cent. Who would be willing to work for Su Cheng?
“Don’t worry, boss, I have already discussed this with Mr. Liu. From now on, when the employees of Sanyo Headhunting Company look for talents for your companies, they will be given commissions according to the normal contract agreement. , I won’t let them work in vain!” Yang Chaoye said with a smile.
Of course Yang Chaoye has already thought of everything Su Cheng can think of. After all, his management experience is much richer than that of Su Cheng.
"In that case, I'm relieved!" Su Cheng said.
"By the way, I have some good news for you!" Yang Chaoye said.
"Oh? I guess it's good news from the computer, right?" Su Cheng thought for a while and asked with a smile.
Now, nearly a month has passed since the last time he gave information to that side. There should be results over there.
"Boss, you guessed it right. Yes, with the information you provided before, we have made breakthrough progress in multiple technologies. Although it has not been completely perfected, we have also developed a A computer prototype that is much more advanced than today's personal computers is considered a semi-finished product. It will take some time to build a computer like the one in the information you provided," Yang Chaoye said.
"Semi-finished product? Then I'll go over and take a look tomorrow." Su Cheng became interested.
"Then boss, just go there by yourself. I have to sign a contract with Sanyo Headhunting Company tomorrow and rearrange the future development direction of Sanyo Headhunting Company. I may not be able to leave," Yang Chaoye said.
“It’s okay, I can go alone!” Su Cheng said with a smile.
