Chapter 311 Dinner at the Governor's Mansion

Chapter 311 Government Dinner

The Hong Kong Economic Journal reported in detail Dingtian Company's terrifying ability to attract money. Dingtian Company produces about 12,000 Walkmans and about 500 arcade machines every day. Although the specific profit of the Walkman is not known, it can be roughly calculated from the purchased raw materials.

The profit from the Taiwanese Walkman should be around US$80, a profit of nearly US$1 million.

The profit of each arcade machine is about 1,000 US dollars, and the profit is about 500,000 US dollars. The daily expenditure on worker wages and other expenses should be about 500,000 to 800,000 US dollars. The daily income of Dingtian Company is about 1 million US dollars.

Bai Zirui handed over interviews from various media to the company's senior executives, and he still hid behind the scenes without being harassed, but he has come into the sight of the upper echelons of Hong Kong.

The Hong Kong government holds a charity dinner every year and invites well-known wealthy people in Hong Kong to donate money. Although it costs a lot, it is a good time to show your face, and it is also a good time to build connections at the banquet. Bai Zirui, who suddenly rose to prominence last year, was also at the charity dinner

on the invitation list.

As an ordinary person in Bai Zirui's previous life, he was not qualified to attend a banquet of this level. There were indeed many Xiangjiang companies doing business with the two companies under his name, but the one he was most familiar with was the Lou family and Lou Yuanshan. With the strength of the Lou family, he would definitely be among them.

Among the invited guests.

So Bai Zirui, who had never attended the charity dinner, called the Lou family. When Lou Yuanshan answered the phone, he said, "Uncle, this is Zirui."

Lou Yuanshan said on the phone: "Zirui, what's the matter?"

Bai Zirui said: "Uncle, someone from the Hong Kong Governor's Office invited me to attend the charity dinner tonight. I don't have many acquaintances in Hong Kong, so I have to ask my uncle for advice. What should I pay attention to at the dinner?"

Lou Yuanshan said: "This shows that the scale of your company's development has attracted the attention of the Hong Kong Governor's Government. There is nothing to pay attention to. Even if you take out a small gadget for auction at the party, you will also auction it at the party."

For the next thing, it’s best to bring a female companion. I’ll come find you tonight and we’ll go there together.”

The current Governor of Hong Kong is Mark MacLehose, KT, GBE, KCMG, KCVO, DL, a senior diplomat and colonial official of the Kingdom of John. He served as the 25th Governor of Hong Kong from 1971 to 1982. His term of office lasted for 10 and a half years, successively.

He was re-elected four times and is the longest-serving Hong Kong governor in the history of Hong Kong.

Bai Zirui and Xu Jingli followed Lou Yuanshan and his son into the hall. He smiled and greeted people he knew well along the way.

The main building was built in 1851 and officially completed in 1855. The Government House in Hong Kong has a courtyard of 24,000 square meters. The main building covers an area of ​​more than 7,000 square meters. It faces south, looking up to Victoria Peak, and to the north is the former Central District Government Offices.

Sir Po Ning, the fourth Governor of Hong Kong, became the first owner in 1855. Since then, 25 of the successive Governors have lived here. Many Governors have decorated and modified the building according to their personal style and needs. After a lot of repairs, the reconstruction has formed

The current Hong Kong Governor’s Office.

During his tenure, MacLehose promoted drastic reforms. His reforms involved housing, integrity, education, medical care, welfare, infrastructure, transportation, economic and social aspects, a ten-year housing building plan, the development of new towns, and the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption.

Important policies and constructions such as nine-year free education, construction of underground railways and local administrative reforms were launched during his tenure.

Arriving at the Hong Kong Government House, Bai Zirui curiously observed everything around him. The Hong Kong Government House was later renamed Hong Kong Government House. It is located between Albert Road and Lower Albert Road on the mid-level of Central. It is the official residence of the Hong Kong Government House.

, is also the most important official reception place for the government.

Lou Yuanshan said with a smile: "It's no trouble, I'll hang up now, you get ready, we'll talk when we meet."

Lou Yuanshan came to a group of Chinese businessmen, greeted everyone, introduced Bai Zirui to them and said:

"Everyone, this is Mr. Bai Zirui, the recently famous founder of Dingtian Company in Xiangjiang, and his fiancée, Miss Xu Jingli."

Yang Tianci looked at his daughter Yang Xue beside him. Ever since Bai Zirui appeared, his daughter's eyes had never left him. This was the second time he met Bai Zirui, but it made him feel countless emotions. Ever since he knew that his daughter liked Bai Zirui

After Rui, Yang Tianci paid great attention to him.

Then he introduced to Bai Zirui all the Chinese businessmen of equal worth to him in turn. Bai Zirui greeted everyone politely and waited until Lou Yuanshan introduced Yang Tianci to him.

In the evening, Lou Yuanshan and his son Lou Shichang came to Chunxi Xijingyuan, where Bai Zirui and the others lived. After chatting for a while, they took the car to the Hong Kong Governor's Office.

After saying that, the two hung up the phone. Bai Zirui took Xu Jingli to a clothing store to buy suits and dresses for the dinner. This was their first appearance in front of the Chinese tycoons, not only representing themselves, but also the company.

The architectural design of the Government House of Hong Kong combines the cultural essence of the East and the West. The building has both the elegant style of neoclassical architecture and the tropical architectural style.

Bai Zirui said gratefully: "Then I'll trouble uncle."

Bai Zirui smiled and said: "Uncle, there is no need to introduce Uncle Yang. Uncle Yang and I have known each other for a long time, right? Uncle Yang?"

Although MacLehose, a diplomat, lacked administrative experience in the colonies, he did not have the burden of the colonies. Instead, he was generally regarded as one of the most outstanding and most beloved governors of Hong Kong in history. Public opinion even called the "MacLehose Era"

"(MacLehose Years), describing his days as governor of Hong Kong.

The top Chinese-funded tycoons include the "Haisha King" Fok Ying-tung, the chartering king, Li Chaoren of Cheung Kong Holdings, Sun Hung Kai Properties' Kwok Desheng, Zheng Yutong of Chow Tai Fook Group, Lin Baixin of Lai Sun Group, etc. Chinese businessmen are divided into shares according to their net worth.

We formed several small circles where familiar people chatted and laughed together.

Chinese businessmen and British businessmen are clearly distinct, just like the Chu-Han world. The British businessmen include Keswick, the head of Yihe, the four major foreign companies, and members of the Kane family of Yingzhou.

These policies have brought about profound changes in the social outlook of Xiangjiang. They not only directly improved the living standards of Xiangjiang citizens, but also further established a positive image of the colonial government in the minds of the citizens. At the same time, they also enhanced the people of Xiangjiang's sense of belonging to Xiangjiang. This will create a better future for future generations.

It laid the foundation for the prosperity of Xiangjiang and is very loved by the people of Xiangjiang.

Bai Zirui came to Xiangjiang to enter the catering industry and opened three Western-style fast food restaurants in three months. He admired his ability very much. If Bai Zirui develops step by step in the catering industry, he will naturally have a place in the catering industry in Xiangjiang.

Since he acquired an arcade machine assembly factory and established Dingtian Technology Company, the sky is as high as a bird can fly, and the sea is as wide as a fish can leap, and its development has been rapid. In just half a year, he has gone from initial curiosity to appreciation to shock.

As the saying goes, comparing people to others will lead to death, and comparing goods will lead to throwing away! Compared with Bai Zirui standing in front of him, Yang Tianci, an old man who was called the Hong Kong crocodile by the newspaper, felt extremely ashamed.

It took him half a lifetime to build this foundation, but it only took him half a year to catch up. Yang Tianci had dinner with Li Baoguo, general manager of Hang Seng Bank, a few days ago. When they talked about the newly emerged Dingtian Company, Li Baoguo

He smiled and said that if he spent 5 billion Hong Kong dollars to acquire Dingtian Company, it would be a business that would make a profit without losing any money!
Chapter completed!
