Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 350 Full of local tyrants

  Although he was a little surprised by the sudden involvement of Huo Daheng, but thinking of the identity of the other party, the big brother did not hesitate for too long, and nodded to President Liang, expressing permission.

   He can doubt Yang Chen, but he will never doubt Huo Daheng. After all, the title of red patriotic capitalist is not something that everyone can get.

   Huo tycoon's persistence for decades, if they are not trusted, it will really make people feel chilled.

  President Liang was relieved when he saw the boss nodded, and resumed his smile: "Since it is Mr. Huo, it is naturally no problem."

   "I don't know how Yang Sheng and Mr. Huo are going to be distributed next?"

  Since Huo Daheng is involved, the investment amount will naturally fluctuate. How much each of them invests and how many shares they hold need to be summed up.

  Yang Chen said: "My investment amount remains the same. Uncle Huo also intends to invest one billion. We add up to two billion Hong Kong dollars, each holding 30% of the shares. I wonder what President Liang thinks?"

   "Mr. Huo also invested so much?" This time, President Liang was shocked again.

   The two of them add up to 2 billion, and that's not counting his side.

  The sum of the three parties amounts to at least three billion Hong Kong dollars. Thinking of this number, President Liang couldn't help swallowing.

   This seems to be a bit big, can he be the head of a branch?

  'No, you have to pull a big guy to help hold it up, otherwise he may not be able to carry it with his small body. ’

   As a result, President Liang once again turned his attention to the liaison office boss.

   Seeing President Liang's gaze moving over, the boss couldn't help but have a headache. Yang Chen's billion-dollar investment had already caused some people above to doubt his intentions.

   After all, grain and oil are no better than other industries. This is a major issue related to people's livelihood. Once it is monopolized by the other party, the consequences will be disastrous.

   If the other party hadn't proposed a joint venture, the inland side wouldn't even consider it.

   The reason why he passed in the end was an old man who made the decision to pass so quickly.

   The boss looked at Huo Daheng with a wry smile and said, "Mr. Huo, is this a bit too big?"

   "This" Huo Daheng didn't expect to increase investment, which would make the other party embarrassed, which made him Huo Daheng don't know what to say.

   Yang Chen saw this, he didn't go to explain it to the boss, but looked directly at President Liang who was equally embarrassed, and asked, "President Liang, I don't know what you think of my Carrefour?"

   "Press?" President Liang looked at Yang Chen in confusion, not understanding the meaning of the other party's question.

   "Next, Carrefour, a subsidiary of me, will enter the Southeast Asian region in a big way, and at the same time, it will also enter the Asian countries around Hong Kong at the fastest speed.

   With my current relationship with HSBC and Standard Chartered, I believe that it will not be long before Carrefour can gain a firm foothold in various countries. "

   "This, President Liang shouldn't deny it, right?"

  President Liang heard the words, without any hesitation, nodded earnestly, expressing his approval.

   Now, both HSBC and Standard Chartered Bank have transferred all their retail stores in Xiangjiang to Yang Chen. You must know that Xiangjiang is the base camp of the two banks.

  The retail stores in the base camp are all sold, not to mention other places, as long as the two banks are willing to support Yang Chen, the expansion speed of Carrefour under the other party will definitely surprise everyone again.

   "I don't need to say what Carrefour is used for, I think both of you must know that the reason why I want to invest in the inland this time is to have a large and stable granary in the rear.

   It is also good that when Carrefour expands, it will not be easily strangled by the neck.

   Next is not only a grain and oil processing factory, but also a variety of commodity processing factories. I have plans to invest and build factories in the inland. "

   "Yang Sheng, are you telling the truth?" President Liang was not calm at all when he heard that Yang Chen was still planning to invest in a commodity processing factory in the inland.

   If there are concerns about grain and oil inland, then there is no problem in other areas.

   Now that the inland is open, the most hope is that someone has invested heavily in the industry in the past. How many commodities does Carrefour need in a supermarket?

   At least there are hundreds and thousands of them. How many factories are needed to supply so many commodities?

   For a while, including the boss who was still embarrassed just now, his attitude changed immediately.

   Embarrassment, embarrassment for what?

   Once Carrefour really enters other Asian countries, how big will the scale be?

   They don't know, but it is definitely not a small amount to consume every day, especially in terms of food.

   At this time, the two of them roughly guessed why Yang Chen invested so much in inland grain and oil. If the scale is small, where can they supply it?

   However, the two of them started getting into trouble.

   No matter how much inland food is available, it can only be consumed by oneself, and there is no surplus food at all to supply the entire Asian countries.

   Fortunately, Yang Chen didn't make them embarrassed for too long, he didn't answer President Liang's question directly, but continued: "Next, I'm going to build a Carrefour food production base in Australia.

   Now the Australian government is vigorously absorbing Chinese immigrants, thinking about the redeveloping of Northern Australia, President Liang should know exactly what place Australia is.

   There are fewer people and more land, and what is lacking is labor to help with development. On the inland side, I just use it to prepare for emergencies, so as not to be strangled by outside grain merchants, I don’t really need to rely on inland supplies all the time. "

   "Once Carrefour's grain base in Australia is established, it will almost be self-sufficient."

   Hearing that Yang Chen was planning to go to Australia to build a food base, President Liang and the head of the Liaison Office looked at each other, and they could see the word shock in each other's eyes.

They are not shocked that Yang Chen went to invest in Australia. The focus is on the word self-sufficiency. With Carrefour's current food consumption budget in Xiangjiang, once Carrefour expands to various countries in Asia, the demand for food will definitely be huge. An unimaginable level.

   Calculated like this, Yang Chen will invest in Australia next. Although the two of them can't calculate the specific amount, they can also feel the atmosphere of local tyrants full of Yang Chen.

   Rich, willful, and very courageous.

   This is not the point. The point is that the other party has the support of several top leaders in Hong Kong and the two major banking institutions of HSBC and Standard Chartered.

   Today, Xiangjiang is still under British rule, and Australia belongs to the Commonwealth of Nations. It is simply too easy for Yang Chen to invest in Australia.

  Especially in agriculture, there is so much uncultivated land in Australia that there is so much uncultivated land, as long as you are willing to cultivate it, the other party will never stop you.

  Although Yang Chen really wanted to learn from the four major grain merchants to acquire the developed land, that would save a lot of effort and time.

   But it takes an opportunity. Under normal circumstances, those who have developed large estates will not sell the land that has been developed in their hands unless your price is really irresistible.

   And with so much money, it is better to develop it yourself, so that you can get more discounts.

  The acquisition of labor, and the exchange of money, the latter will certainly attract some criticism. And people pay money and labor, to a large extent can avoid being excluded.
