Siheyuan: Taking over the steel mill

Speaking of which, even Assistant Zhang himself is looking forward to the opportunity to visit Hong Kong. It is said to be extremely prosperous and luxurious, but he has never had the opportunity to personally appreciate its style. However, this time, perhaps he can realize his wish by accompanying the factory director on the trip.

But Su Chen did not explicitly ask to bring Assistant Zhang along, so it was not convenient for him to take the initiative to suggest going along. This caused Assistant Zhang to feel a little melancholy: how wonderful it would be to go to a good place like Hong Kong to have fun.

As if he understood Assistant Zhang's thoughts, Su Chen casually said, "Remember to prepare more travel documents. You can go with us."

Assistant Zhang's eyes sparkled. He thought the factory manager might not have considered him for this trip, but he was touched by such a warm word and felt very close to him. Assistant Zhang immediately responded: "Thank you, factory manager. I will do it immediately."

Although this trip to Hong Kong was mainly for the film company's affairs, Assistant Zhang also took the opportunity to have some fun in between work. In addition to bringing back a wealth of knowledge and specialties, what made people look forward to more was the envy of colleagues and friends when they returned. All these joys were given by Su Chen, and also made Assistant Zhang respect him even more.

Su Chen actually didn't realize that his unintentional action had won another heart. He thought that since he was going to Hong Kong, he might as well invite Yang Xue to go with him, first to have fun, and second to deal with the contract matters on the way. Yang Xue has been busy during this period and has almost no rest time. Except for the last weekend they spent together, Su Chen has not been able to spend more time with her recently.

Therefore, this trip to Hong Kong was a rare opportunity, not only for the two to spend time together, but also for other tasks to be completed. The purpose of sending Assistant Zhang to contact Hua Zai was not because the other party wanted to enter the domestic market, but because as the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill grew stronger, its influence had transcended the country and even had a significant reputation in **. This was not only because the mill had established solid relationships with many countries, but also because many people in ** hoped to benefit from establishing contact with the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

When Assistant Zhang contacted Andy, the other party's agent explained the strength and influence of the Red Star Steel Mill, which made Andy resolutely decide to sign. But Su Chen was completely unaware of these inside stories. His current mind was mainly focused on his future vision, and he did not notice how high his influence had reached. Today's Red Star Steel Mill is no longer a dying state-owned enterprise, but has become a local giant. With its current reputation, if he needs any support, naturally someone will actively provide assistance. But Su Chen has not yet realized this.

After returning from the Red Star Steel Mill, Su Chen found Yang Xue to explain the situation. When she learned that they were going to ** for a trip, Yang Xue immediately showed great enthusiasm. Although it was not her first time to visit **, the feeling of traveling with Su Chen was completely different. Yang Xue excitedly began to pack her luggage, and her whole body was filled with joy that could not be concealed.

Seeing Yang Xue's happy smile, Su Chen was more convinced of the correctness of his decision. Thinking of how busy she was recently and how rarely she smiled, this trip to Hong Kong seemed particularly precious. At the same time, it was also a good opportunity for him to relieve his recent fatigue and adjust his mood. Hong Kong during this period was full of charm that future generations would miss, and witnessing the city's appearance during this golden age in person would undoubtedly be a wonderful and unforgettable experience.

In addition, Suchen decided to go to Hong Kong in person to get inspiration to further improve the creativity of his film. Although the actual film production will be entrusted to a professional director, he does not want to let go completely and leave everything to the director.

The filming of this movie is not a mechanical reproduction of the original work. Its main purpose is to promote the luxury cruise ships and private yachts manufactured by the shipyard, so Suchen intends to make appropriate changes. As long as the main storyline remains unchanged, he is open to micro details. After all, only attractive movies can achieve the desired advertising effect.

As for how to make the specific adjustments, he decided to make a detailed decision after arriving in Hong Kong. Yang Xue's preparations for the trip were complete, and Assistant Zhang had also planned all the itineraries in advance. This meant that Su Chen and Yang Xue only needed to apply for a pass to set off. Thanks to the support of the team, many things no longer had to be done by themselves.

Accompanied by Assistant Zhang and several lawyers who had signed contracts, the two quickly obtained the pass and boarded the express train to Hong Kong. This was not because Su Chen enjoyed special treatment. In fact, after the staff found out that he was the person in charge of the Red Star Steel Plant, they immediately gave him priority service. In comparison, the current pass application procedures are much simpler than in the future.

Soon after obtaining the pass, they and their lawyers went to a town near the Xiangjiang River and took a ferry across the river. Considering the length of the train journey, Suchen chose a more comfortable soft sleeper compartment.

Yang Xue was in a very good mood during the trip. Traveling with her beloved, and being able to visit her favorite place - **, made her feel very satisfied. Although she had traveled all over the world for her studies, she had never been to Hong Kong. This unexpected invitation filled her heart with joy and gratitude.

When the train slowly pulled into the station and everyone stepped onto the pier, they saw a large ferry waiting to take them to Hong Kong. This ship could carry a large number of passengers to cross this mysterious waters where the river and the waves meet. This was the scene when there was no highway connecting the two sides. Most people still chose this way to go to Hong Kong.

After boarding the ship, they chose a first-class cabin to stay in. Outside the window, the scenery of the river and the sea fused together and captivated everyone. This scene reminded Su Chen of many sea scenes in the movie, and he could not help but have new creative sparks. Yang Xue, who was full of desire to explore everything, seemed to be as fresh and curious as if she was on a ship for the first time.

As the journey progressed, the two of them felt more relaxed. With the sea breeze, they strolled on the ferry deck. Su Chen, who had no particular interest in cruise ships, was aroused at this moment: maybe he could buy a cruise ship in the future and travel the blue sea and blue sky with Yang Xue. However, that was all a vision for the future.

After a two-hour boat trip, everyone finally landed on the land of Hong Kong.

The director of the Hong Kong Office learned in advance that Su Chen and others would arrive, and led a group of people to wait here.

The Hong Kong Office at this time was not as strong as it was later. Facing the British garrison, the Hong Kong Office adopted a peaceful attitude as much as possible.

The director treated Su Chen, the distinguished guest from the capital, with particular care and meticulousness.

However, Suchen did not react much to this hospitality. He thought he would be relatively low-key after arriving and did not expect to meet local officials. He had no intention of informing them in advance and just planned a relaxing trip.

The director also realized that he had not received a formal notification of the reception mission, but he was eager to show himself, especially because he was in ** and he had also heard the story of the Red Star Steel Plant.

Outstanding talents like Su Chen deserve more respect and closeness. The personal connections may be of great use in the future, and if there is a chance that Su Chen's help is needed, it will be much easier.

When Su Chen got off the boat, he saw the port office staff holding up banners welcoming him and felt a little embarrassed.

He had hoped to keep the trip as low-key as possible, but was surprised to receive such a welcome.

The director of the port office hurried forward, stretched out his hand and said to Su Chen: "Welcome to the director of the Red Star Steel Plant."

Su Chen was somewhat helpless and a little amused, and waved his hand: "No need to be so serious, I'm just out for fun." The director quickly followed up: "Mr. Su Chen, you are too serious, these are all sincere gifts from everyone."

Su Chen felt a little headache and said, "Please make yourselves at ease, I really just came here for leisure, and I have no official business."

Of course, Su Chen would not reveal his entire plan. This trip was not because of the Red Star Steel Plant, but for the film company he founded.

After hearing this, the director ordered his men to put away the banners.

"Comrade Su Chen is tired from the long journey. Please go to the hotel we have prepared for you to rest."

Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Su Chen had to nod and agree: "I'm really sorry to trouble you. In fact, I have already booked a place. Since the director has made arrangements, I will go with you."

The director of the Hong Kong Office realized that his enthusiastic service might make Suchen uncomfortable, so he said tactfully: "Comrade Suchen, there is no need to be so reserved. I am just being friendly. If you have made other arrangements, it would be better to do it at your convenience."

Now Su Chen felt much more relaxed.

He didn't want to be involved in official affairs during his vacation, especially greeting these leaders, which was really energy-consuming.

Su Chen thanked him again, "I appreciate your kindness. This is indeed a private trip. If I really need to do something serious in the future, I will definitely notify you in advance."

The director felt relieved when he heard this.

Although he didn't know how much support Su Chen had behind him, he knew that Su Chen was an important figure. If the reception was not decent, it would be an unshirkable responsibility for him. So he expressed some courtesy to Su Chen. All this also paved the way for his future career.

After confirming that Su Chen was indeed traveling for leisure, the director stopped disturbing them and allowed Su Chen's team to move freely.

Su Chen led his subordinates to the reserved hotel by car. This was the place arranged by the director of the Hong Kong Office, and it was even more upscale than the one Su Chen originally booked.

Staying in a hotel for free is naturally an extremely comfortable experience. After putting down the luggage, Su Chen instructed his assistant and others: "You can move freely first, don't worry about signing the contract, and make a decision after we have a good rest."

Hearing this, Assistant Zhang breathed a sigh of relief.

He really needed a break after all the careful planning.

Seeing that Su Chen was planning to go out, Assistant Zhang chose to rest for a while in the hotel before taking any action.

Su Chen seemed to have endless energy, and Yang Xue, who came to ** for the first time, was full of novelty and expectation. After a brief discussion, the two decided not to stay in the hotel, but to go out and explore together.
