Break out of the courtyard

Outside the granary in Shenzhen City, Zhang Heping was quickly flipping through the internal reference that Director Wu had asked his secretary to bring, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

"At the beginning of last month, when we asked you to donate grain to the north, the higher-ups took into account that the summer grain in the south would soon be stored, so they transferred most of the grain stored in the southern provinces to the north." Director Wu from Shenzhen stood beside Zhang Heping and patiently explained to him:

"As a result, no one expected that the typhoon would come just after the grain was transported away! Guangdong and Guangxi, Hunan and Hubei, and Jiangnan..."

"The continuous heavy rains in June caused communications and roads to be cut off in many places, so the provinces were unable to collect comprehensive statistics on the disaster situation in a timely manner. As time went by, we found that the disaster situation was getting more and more serious..."

"Open the warehouse and donate everything!" Zhang Heping said in a deep voice to his concubine Chen Shuting on the left, and then said no more.

A year and a half later, Zhang Heping took the internal reference again and looked through it, feeling it was heavy!

The cold numbers on the paper seem to be just to explain that this summer's flood disaster is a devastating flood that rarely occurs in a century!

This was information that Zhang Heping did not have in his memory from his previous life. He did not exist at that time, and no one mentioned it to him afterwards. Perhaps no one wanted to mention this flood again.

After seeing Chen Shuting having people open the warehouse and move the grain, Director Wu continued to tell Zhang Heping about what he knew.

"The third-grade threaded steel bars and aluminum alloy ingots in the food exchange agreement you signed have been prepared. They will be delivered once the railway transports the disaster relief supplies."

"In addition, according to the weather forecast program that was urgently launched on July 7, there are still many areas experiencing heavy rains in the next few weeks."

"Floods in the south and drought in the north, a total crop failure in summer, and last year's drought..." Zhang Heping murmured, "Food, medicine, tents..."

"Please rest assured, Mr. Zhang. The country's war reserve materials have been mobilized, and with the help of patriots like you, we have the confidence and ability to overcome this difficult time!" Director Wu said a little excitedly, but Zhang Heping just gave him a complicated look.

If, Zhang Bei, Zhang Nan and others had not been beaten!

Or, the guard company of No. 5 Courtyard stood on the side of the Zhang family and provided the name and home address of the attacker!

Or maybe the parents of the attacker had come to the Zhang family to apologize...

Unfortunately, there is no if!

He had already used the naval compound to cut off his thoughts on the capital, so there was no need to show goodwill to those people in the capital.

The emerging city of Shenzhen is his last inland city to bet on.

So, after Director Wu from Shenzhen talked to him for a few words, he generously donated 40 tons of rice and wheat in the granary.

Zhang Heping collected his thoughts and said to Director Wu in Shenzhen: "Director Wu, after the batch of steel bars and aluminum alloys are delivered, they will be placed in the warehouse here. I plan to use them to build an office building and an apartment building in Shenzhen."

"Also, let me remind you! The country had a fiscal deficit last year, and this year we are experiencing floods in the south and drought in the north, so the deficit will continue!"

"Add to that the impact of township factories across the country on state-owned factories, as well as problems such as difficulty in finding employment and speculation, and the economic situation next year will be very severe!"

"By then, Guangdong's special economic zones will face tremendous pressure!" Zhang Heping said, stretching out his right hand to Director Wu and solemnly said:

"Only if you can withstand the pressure, will we dare to increase our investment in Shenzhen. I hope that next time we meet, we can discuss land leasing and real estate sales."

Director Wu did not expect that this young Hong Kong businessman had such a thorough understanding of the domestic situation. For a moment, he felt the pressure coming over him...

On the way back on his motorcycle, Zhang Heping's concubine Chen Shuting hugged his waist and asked in his ear: "Husband, with such a big disaster, shouldn't we do something?"

"No need for that!" Zhang Heping said with a firm look, "A good blacksmith must have strong tools himself! Let's first develop a number of real industries in Hong Kong Island so that others won't dare to look down on us!"

……

The news that the three companies, Hong Kong Electric, Star Ferry and Hong Kong Tramways, were controlled by Chinese capital only appeared once in the newspaper and was never mentioned again.

Because, after the account manager of Huifeng Bank conveyed the opinion of the Hong Kong Financial Secretary that he disagreed with Zhang Heping's investment in the Hong Kong MTR Corporation, Zhang Heping let "This Is Not Scientific Publishing House" spend 5.4 million magnesium yuan to acquire Hong Kong Radio, TVB Wireless Television, ATV, and 6 newspapers including Ming Pao and Sing Pao, as well as 51% of the shares of a number of magazines.

This move shocked the Hong Kong government, and the Hong Kong police were the most nervous. They knew that there were problems with the robbery of Laboratory Building No. 10 in Kowloon Tong, and they were afraid that Zhang Heping would expose the matter through the media.

Even though Zhang Heping later explained that he acquired those media outlets simply because he didn't want them to report information about the Zhang family, the Hong Kong government was still uneasy.

It was not until Unscientific Press signed a subway advertising cooperation agreement with the Hong Kong MTR Corporation that the Hong Kong government breathed a sigh of relief.

The general content of this agreement is that Science Press will be responsible for the solicitation, production and placement of subway-related advertisements, and will obtain 70% of the subway advertising fees.

The Hong Kong Island MTR Corporation rents advertising space in and outside metro stations to the Unscientific Publishing House, and receives 30% of the metro advertising fees as rental fees.

In addition, the subway-related advertising spaces will be selected and arranged by the Unscientific Publishing House itself, with a lease term of 99 years.

Yes, 99 years!

The Eagles knew they couldn't survive 97, so they extended the deadline to 99.

At that time, if the mainland does not recognize this super-long period, it will be exciting to watch!

……

In early August, Shen Bi, chairman of Huifeng Bank, once again acted as an intermediary and exchanged 8% of Kai Tak Airport shares and 51 Hong Kong Island taxi licenses for this month's production of 3000 boxes of Manliest tablets.

Kai Tak Airport is located on the west coast of the Kowloon Bay Industrial Zone. It is the only airport on Hong Kong Island and has only one 3-kilometer runway.

Although this airport is small, it has 27 foreign airlines stationed there, and its passenger and cargo volumes cannot be underestimated.

Chairman Shen told Zhang Heping that it was so easy for him to take control because the Hong Kong government planned to build a new airport in Chek Lap Kok and Zhang Heping had taken over the media in Hong Kong Island.

Although Shen Bi seemed to be frank and honest, Zhang Heping did not believe him because he had already told his concubine Chen Shuting that Eagle Capital was going to leave Hong Kong Island!

The reason why Island Electric, Star Ferry, Hong Kong Tramways and Kai Tak Airport only transferred 51% of the shares to Zhang Heping was simply that the Eagles wanted to keep the other shares and raise the stock price in the future to induce Zhang Heping to take over at a high price, and then privatize it into a family company.

Unfortunately, the Eagles made a wrong calculation!

The reason why Zhang Heping was willing to change these public utilities was just to increase his family's voice, so as to avoid being just a rich man and a fat sheep in the eyes of others like before...

As for whether he will cut off electricity and traffic in the future, it is unless he doesn’t want to stay in Hong Kong Island anymore!

"Honey, I found out!" The second wife, Chen Shuting, put down the phone on the desk and said quickly, "In addition to our 3000 taxi licenses, there are 6533 taxi licenses in Hong Kong Island in the hands of individuals."

After she finished speaking, Chen Shuting lowered her head to look at her documents.

At that time, there was no taxi company in Hong Kong Island. There was only the Hong Kong Island Taxi Chamber of Commerce, which was freely joined by taxi drivers.

With oil prices rising now, if Zhang Heping wants to monopolize the taxi market in Hong Kong Island, he only needs to start a price war by using oil prices to defeat those taxi drivers.

However, Zhang Heping did not do that.

What he wants is the group of Hong Kong taxi drivers, or rather the intelligence network, rather than simply the taxi profits.

If you really want to make money, just collect those taxi licenses and sell them when they appreciate in value after a dozen years.

Therefore, when Zhang Heping sent people to discuss cooperation with the Hong Kong Taxi Association in the following days, the conditions he offered were so good that the taxi drivers couldn't believe it!

Could capitalists be so good?
