Kowloon, Kowloon Bus Headquarters.
Compared with the dilapidation of the former Chung Hwa Bus headquarters, Kowloon Bus is obviously much better.
Kowloon Bus has a longer history than Chunghwa Bus. Kowloon Bus was founded in 1921 and has a history of 58 years.
Since selling Lydia Cinema to Tian Yuan Investment Company, Lei Juekun has devoted himself to running Kowloon Bus.
However, Lei Juekun is also an ambitious businessman.
At this time, he was in the chairman's office of Kowloon Bus, studying which industries could quickly accumulate wealth.
The bus business of Kowloon Bus alone cannot satisfy him.
Although the theater chain is gone, Lei Juekun has not given up on the entertainment industry.
At this time, he was studying the feasibility of forming a film company to make movies.
When you invest in a movie, if you are lucky, you can make several times the profit, but if you are not lucky, you will not lose much. This is why he focuses on the movie company.
Although there are no theaters, it can still be distributed normally, but it will increase some costs. As long as it can make money, Lei Juekun doesn't care.
As for setting up theater chains again? Lei Juekun had no such idea.
Last year, he not only owned a theater chain, but he did not often suffer losses.
But when this theater chain arrived in Suzhou, it not only stopped losing money, but also developed better and better.
Where does the problem occur? Of course it's because there are good movies being played all the time these days.
Therefore, it is useless to have a theater chain, you must have a good source of movies to play.
While I was thinking about it, there was a knock on the door of the chairman's office.
"Come in." Lei Juekun raised his head and shouted.
"Director Lei, I have something to report to you." The person who came in was the director of the external relations department of Kowloon Bus.
"Say." Lei Juekun put the information in his hand aside and then said.
"Mr. Melis, the new president of China Bus, has just called someone and said that he wants to come and visit you to see when you are available." reported the Minister of External Relations of Kowloon Bus.
"Mailis is looking for me?" Lei Juekun suddenly had a bad thought in his heart.
This is his natural sensitivity.
It seems that looking for me is not a good thing!
However, he couldn't refuse this matter. After all, he couldn't afford to offend Su City, and Mairis had just become a general under Su City.
"Reply them, the Kowloon Bus office welcomes Mr. Mellis at any time." Although Lei Juekun had many thoughts in his heart, he said this.
"Okay Director Lei, then I won't disturb you." After the minister of the external relations department said that, he gently closed the door and left quickly.
"It's a blessing, not a curse. It's a curse that can't be avoided!" Lei Juekun sat in the office and sighed.
Think of him, Lei Juekun. After all, he is also a figure in Xiangjiang, but when facing a figure like Su Cheng, he feels powerless.
This is because the strength gap is so big that he cannot afford to offend the other party.
What exactly does Melis want from me?
Kowloon Bus and China Bus are both in the same industry, but they have their own business scope.
After the opening of the Hung Hom Cross-Harbour Tunnel, part of the lines of the two companies were extended to the other's territory. However, this was all negotiated, so there was not much conflict.
Because of this, Lei Juekun couldn't think of a problem after much thought. "I lost it." Lei Juekun swept aside the information on the table in annoyance and uttered foul language in annoyance.
Since he felt that the meeting was not a good thing, it would definitely not be a good thing. He was very confident in his sense of vigilance.
However, even though he knew that nothing good was going to happen, he was currently helpless because he didn’t know why the other party came and when, so he had no way to prepare.
At this time, he had no time to think about making movies. He stood up from the boss's chair and walked out of the office.
Coming outside, the office was busy.
Since China Bus changed its service quality, there have been more complaints about Kowloon Bus.
Without it, citizens always like to compare.
After comparison, they found that the current service quality of Chung Hwa Bus was much higher than that of Kowloon Bus, so there were naturally more complaints.
So, today's Kowloon Bus has no choice but to start making changes, but Lei Juekun does not intend to invest too much in this area, so he just plans to make slight changes to cope with it.
"Director Lei."
"Hello, Director Lei."
Every employee who saw Lei Juekun greeted him respectfully. Lei Juekun also enjoyed this kind of treatment very much and nodded expressionlessly in response.
Soon, he came to the office of the External Relations Department.
"Have you told them over there? When did they say Mr. Melis would come over?" Lei Juekun asked directly as soon as he entered the office.
"Boss, I have already told you over there. Since you are free today, boss, Mr. Mellis will come here to find you in about an hour. I was just about to go over and report to you. !" the subordinate replied.
"Okay, I understand." Lei Juekun nodded and left the office again.
Come find me here in an hour? Things are so urgent, and it doesn't look like a good thing.
Unable to think of anything, Lei Juekun walked around the office and then returned to his office helplessly, waiting for the arrival of Melis.
Since the development of Kwai Chung Pier, the headquarters of Kowloon Bus has also moved to the vicinity of Kwai Chung.
Here, Kowloon Bus owns a lot of land, so they also built themselves a new headquarters office.
Kwai Chung's development speed has benefited from the relocation of the freight terminal, and this area has also developed.
The logistics industry, manufacturing industry, etc. are very prosperous. Even if it is compared to Kwun Tong, it is just far away from the urban area.
From Lei Juekun's office, you can overlook the Hong Kong Kwai Chung Cargo Terminal in the distance. With the blue sky and white clouds today, the scenery is very good.
However, at this time, Lei Juekun was no longer interested in the scenery in front of him.
After receiving the reply from Kowloon Bus, Melis, who was far away in North Point, also planned to go out immediately.
He is not familiar with the roads in Xiangjiang, but it is not difficult for him. Just find a subordinate in the company to take him there.
The bus company can have less of everything, but the driver must not have less.
This is the first time he has left Hong Kong Island since coming to Hong Kong.
During this period, although he often went out to inspect the bus lines owned by China Bus, most of these bus lines were on Hong Kong Island, and only a few cross-sea lines extended to the Kowloon Peninsula. , so he doesn’t need to leave Hong Kong Island at all.
The car passed through the Hung Hom Cross Harbor Tunnel and soon arrived at the Kowloon Peninsula.
Half an hour later, Mellis' car had arrived in Kwai Chung and arrived downstairs at the headquarters building of Kowloon Bus. (End of chapter)
