Chapter 194 Pure Xiangjiang Foreigners
“Where is the office of Hutchison Telecom?” Su Cheng asked.
"Boss, Hutchison Telecom's headquarters office is not here in Hutchison Whampoa Building. They have an independent office building over in Causeway Bay." Weili replied.
He was very satisfied with what Su City brought over. Although mobile phones are being studied in many laboratories around the world, they have not yet been commercialized.
If the technical information the boss brought over was true, then it would have been sent.
I really don’t know where the boss got the technology from.
The novel, he can still believe that it was written by the boss himself.
As for this kind of technology, he didn't believe it.
Su Cheng didn’t say anything, and he didn’t ask either.
As long as it works.
"Let's go to Hutchison Telecommunications Company with you. If you have time, take those four novels to Hutchison Publishing House and discuss with the person in charge how they should be distributed." Su Cheng said with a smile.
There is no need for him to go through the non-technical work of publishing and distributing novels. There are professionals working on them anyway.
Mobile phones are different. This new species is not yet commercially available in the world. It is still necessary to go to Sioux City to explain clearly.
"Okay, let me put these novel manuscripts away first." Weili nodded and said.
After saying that, he put the four novel manuscripts into the cabinet in the office and locked them.
Then, Wei Li called the general manager's office of Hutchison Telecom to confirm whether the person in charge was in the company.
After finishing it, he and Su Cheng went out.
"Take my car, I'll give you a ride back when you're done." Su Cheng said when he saw Wei Li preparing to walk to the underground parking lot of the Hutchison Whampoa Headquarters Building.
This place is only two or three kilometers away from Causeway Bay.
"Okay." Wei Li nodded.
The driver of Su Cheng's car parked in the open-air parking space outside the building.
After the two got in the car, Su Cheng asked the driver to drive directly to Causeway Bay.
It only took less than ten minutes for the car to arrive at Percival Street in Causeway Bay and arrive at a building with only 8 floors.
On the building, there is a signboard that reads: Hutchison Telecommunications Building.
The first floor of the building is a business lobby, which is somewhat similar to the business area of a bank.
On the west side, there is also an area separated by several small areas, similar to a bank's ATM self-service teller machine, but instead of an self-service teller machine, the place here is a landline phone.
"The general manager's office is on the 6th floor." Wei Li pressed the 6th floor button in the elevator, and then said to Su Cheng. Soon, the two of them went up to the sixth floor. There were several separated offices here, and employees were working in the offices.
Wei Li took Su Cheng to one of the independent offices, which was labeled General Manager's Office.
Walking into the office, Su Cheng saw a middle-aged foreigner, about the same age as Wei Li, whose gold-rimmed glasses were particularly eye-catching.
"Hello, boss, hello, Mr. Weili." Seeing Su Cheng and Weili, the middle-aged foreigner stood up and greeted them.
"This is Langdon Moore, general manager of Hutchison Telecommunications. We usually call him Langdon." Wei Li introduced to Sioux City with a smile.
"Hello, Mr. Langdon." Su Cheng shook hands with him.
This is actually not the first time Su Cheng and Langdon have met. They have also met before during high-level management meetings.
However, Hutchison Whampoa has too many subsidiaries. Even after Wei Li's vigorous rectification and reform, many businesses were sold or closed down, there are still more than a hundred subsidiaries left, Su The city did not get to know the heads of these subsidiaries one by one.
"This is probably the first time the boss has met me. Let me introduce myself. My name is Landon Moore. I am originally from Ireland. My grandfather's generation immigrated to Hong Kong, so I am a relatively pure native of Hong Kong. I studied in the beautiful country of California. majored in electronic information engineering at the University of California, Berkeley. After graduation, he worked for Motorola for 8 years. After returning to Hong Kong, he worked at the Hong Kong Telephone Company as the chief engineer. Two years ago, he was invited by Mr. Wei Li to work at Hutchison Telecommunications Company. General Manager," Langdon introduced himself.
Heung Kong Telephone Company is currently the largest telecommunications company in Hong Kong. It is a subsidiary of Hong Kong Land. It was founded in 1882 and is one of Hong Kong's oldest public utilities. Telephone and telegraph services occupy a leading position in Hong Kong. Very large share.
Although Hutchison Telecommunications Company is somewhat powerful, compared with Heung Kong Telephone Company, it is not at the same level at all.
Surprisingly, Langdon spoke fluent Xiangjiang dialect to Su Cheng, which was almost the same level as the Xiangjiang dialect spoken by ordinary Xiangjiang citizens.
“I didn’t expect Mr. Langdon to speak Xiangjiang dialect so well!” Su Cheng praised.
"Despite my foreign appearance, I am an authentic Xiangjiang native. I am married to a Chinese wife. I also studied in a Chinese school since I was a child. Most of the friends I know are locals from Xiangjiang." Langdon laughed.
Yes, this is really an authentic local, even more local than this time traveler from Sioux City.
“Let’s sit down and talk, don’t stand around.” Although Wei Li has been in Xiangjiang for many years, his Xiangjiang dialect is very poor, and he can barely understand it. When he saw the two of them started chatting in Xiangjiang dialect Feeling excited, he interrupted in English.
"Okay, let's go over and sit down and chat." Su Cheng responded with a smile.
After the three of them sat down, Langdon asked curiously: "The boss and Mr. Weili came here today. They must have something to do, right?"
"Of course, if these very important things are handled well, Hutchison Telecom can become a world-renowned large enterprise." Wei Li said seriously.
“Well, Mr. Weili, what you said is too exaggerated. Our Hutchison Telecommunications Company is only a medium-sized enterprise with no ranking in Hong Kong. If we can become like the Xiangjiang Telephone Company, Being the leader in the Xiangjiang telephone business is already pretty good, let alone becoming a world-renowned company!" Langdon shook his head and said.
Langdon has been the general manager of Hutchison Telecom for more than two years and knows everything about the company. The telephone business in Hong Kong only accounts for about 10% of the entire Hong Kong. As long as there are no accidents, It is difficult to continue to increase the market share because the user stickiness of Xiangjiang Telephone Company is too strong. Therefore, after he took office, the company's business expansion was mainly focused on the surrounding areas of Xiangjiang, such as Singapore, Jiapo and Haojiang. ,Malaysia.
Now, Weili said that Hutchison Telecommunications Company has the opportunity to become a well-known large enterprise in the world. Langdon did not believe it. Although this was what he expected, he would never be too whimsical.
"Mr. Wei Li is right. I am here today to make Hutchison Telecommunications a world-famous company, and I am very confident." Su Cheng said with a smile.
With the technology he provides, Su Cheng believes that even a start-up can quickly become famous around the world, not to mention that Hutchison Telecommunications is also a well-established telecommunications company.
