Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

While He Mingcheng and Bao Zixuan were discussing the formation of the company, they called the receptionist from just now to serve as temporary secretary and began to record the contents and minutes of their conversation.

He Mingcheng: "Uncle He, although you are a small lawyer, he can still help you solve some legal problems. What kind of game company do you want to set up? But as far as I know, RB and American companies have advantages in this aspect. There are no companies in this field in Hong Kong yet, and game development talents are not easy to find.”

Bao Zixuan: "Don't worry! Uncle He, I am talented in this field. I will handle the early development by myself, and I will recruit people according to the company's development."

He Mingcheng: "As long as you have confidence, fine! What do you need from me?"

Bao Zixuan: "The main reason is that I want Uncle He to help me register the company. It would be too slow if I did it myself. Also, I need Uncle He to help me register the patents generated during the development period. The most important thing at the moment is that I need Uncle He to help me find the factory building." , there are also relevant staff who need your cooperation in recruiting, Uncle He."

He Mingcheng: "You kid can find things for me to do; there's no problem with that. But what are your requirements for the factory and how much do you plan to invest?"

Bao Zixuan: "For now, as long as you can assemble arcade machines, it will be enough. Let's see the development in the future! 500,000-1 million Hong Kong dollars. As for the staff, you can just put up the office shelves first."

He Mingcheng: "What's the name of the company? Where is the office location!"

Bao Zixuan: "The name is Heiyun Game Company, but you also need to help me register Heiyun Electronic Technology, Heiyun Entertainment, Heiyun Real Estate, Heiyun Medicine, etc., that's all for now!"

He Mingcheng: "You are very ambitious! Let me see if you have this ability! Don't let me down! Mr. Bao!" Hahaha

Bao Zixuan: "How come Uncle He has now entered the role of lawyer! But my brother Ming has settled the accounts. I have a lot of troubles for you this year, so we will sign a one-year agency contract first. During the year, you will serve as our company's legal advisor. How about a basic fee of HK$100,000 and a commission based on the contract amount?"

He Mingcheng: "Forget it about the contract. It's not easy when you're just starting out. If it develops well, just give me a red envelope. Instead of 100,000, just 60,000."

Bao Zixuan: "Then I'd like to thank Uncle He. Then prepare the contract!"

He Mingcheng: "You kid, come with me for real! Okay!" After saying that, he asked the temporary secretary to change the contract as just mentioned, mainly to add the amount.

After Bao Zixuan saw that there was no problem with the contract amount, he immediately wrote a check for 30,000 Hong Kong dollars and handed it to He Mingcheng. After seeing him hand over the check, He Mingcheng naturally took it. This is business. What lawyers sell is services. No matter how good the relationship is, you must act according to the rules. However, He Mingcheng did not receive the contract commission, which made him regret it countless times in the next year.

After the conversation with He Mingcheng, Bao Zixuan declined He Mingcheng's lunch invitation; he was going to the computer market alone. No matter how good the idea is without equipment, it cannot become a reality. In this era, home computers were not yet popular, and Apple only launched the Apple 2 computer in April this year, three months ago. It can be said that this is the first personal computer in the true sense of human history. But there is still no sales in Xiangjiang. To make games, especially games that require computer programming, there is one company that is always a topic that cannot be avoided - IBM, the absolute overlord of this era. Although Apple has developed rapidly in the era of smartphones, Apple and IBM cannot be said to be rivals now. That would be too high a view of Apple.

After Bao Zixuan asked for the address, he came to IBM's sales outlet in Xiangjiang. Although there are currently very few industries that use computers in Xiangjiang and sales in Xiangjiang are average, IBM's sales outlet in Xiangjiang is still in the most prosperous area of ​​Central. Seeing that there were only a few computers in the 2,000-square-foot hall, I realized how wealthy IBM was.

When Bao Zixuan walked into the showroom, a blond beauty walked over immediately. It seemed that IBM's sales gave priority to recruiting European and American people. Since the salesperson spoke English, he could only talk to the other person in English.

Bao Zixuan stayed in London for 13 years in his previous life, and he also has two years of living experience in London in this life. Moreover, most of Rolls-Royce's engineers and executives are British, so Bao Zixuan's English naturally has a strong London accent. You have to master not only English, but also German, French, Japanese, and Russian. If you look at translation materials, you will not be able to keep up with Rolls-Royce. Papers on aerospace engines are mainly concentrated in these languages.

After hearing that Bao Zixuan was so authentic and had a strong London accent, the salesperson felt that an opportunity had come. The person in front of me must be a Xiangjiang native who has lived in the UK for a long time. In this era, very few people in Xiangjiang buy computers, and the main sales are to foreign companies in Xiangjiang. But those who come back from abroad are different; they are also a very potential buying group.

When the salesperson introduced the performance of computers in this era, Bao Zixuan felt a little overwhelmed. The performance of the most advanced large computer here is only 60,000 times that of the laptop in my previous life, but in this era only IBM can meet its requirements! After looking at it for a while, I spent 16,000 US dollars to buy a small computer based on my actual needs, and it will be delivered to my home soon. In addition, I spent more than 40,000 US dollars to order a medium-sized industrial control computer! Still a simplified version. It takes about a week to reach Xiangjiang. And the price was only calculated in US dollars, but Bao Zixuan still brought the 10,000 pounds that the airline paid for compensation, and they still accepted it. The pound sterling in this era was very recognized. Based on the exchange rate, he only needs to pay about 200,000 Hong Kong dollars.

I spent more than 400,000 yuan after being out for half a day. It seems that my little money is not enough for anything. The plan must be implemented as soon as possible! When leaving the IBM sales showroom, Bao Zixuan had a note in his hand, which was the contact information of the female salesperson. But I didn't have the energy to think about this at the moment, so I politely put it in my pocket and left.

After the people from IBM moved the computer into the truck, they saw that Bao Zixuan was not driving and politely took him with him! After all, there are very few people in this era who can spend more than 400,000 Hong Kong dollars at a time. Following Bao Zixuan's instructions, he quickly arrived at the downstairs of Taikoo Shing Community. Two staff members moved the computer to his room on a trolley. Bao Zixuan refused the other party's installation. After all, he had installed a large computer in his previous life. It would be a joke if such a little guy couldn't handle it, but we still give each person 100 Hong Kong dollars as service fee.

After the two people left, Bao Zixuan began to unpack the computer box and followed the installation instructions step by step to complete the installation. He did not want to capsize in the gutter. Computers of this era are still very different from those of later generations, but the basic operating principles are still the same. So in less than an hour, he had installed everything needed and debugged it.

When I was familiar with computer performance, I started writing some practical software, but I forgot to clean it up. When Li Yulin returned home and saw that the living room was full of boxes, she knew that her precious son must be back, and she put the boxes in the utility room without any complaints. After Li Yulin moved to Taikoo Shing, she always gave Bao Zixuan the master bedroom, which was the largest room. She always thought that it would be troublesome for her children to move around if they got married in the future; this shows that a mother is thinking about her son all the time.

It wasn't until seven o'clock in the evening, when Li Yulin was preparing dinner, that she knocked on the door and asked Bao Zixuan to eat; but before that, she never had the heart to disturb him!
