Reborn as a Hong Kong Tycoon

Chapter 615 Auto Industry (Two in One)

After the announcement of Hutchison Whampoa's big profits, the company's stock price soared, and Lin Baicheng's holdings were being reduced. Yuan Tianfan was doing the specific work, and Lin Baicheng only needed to pay attention.

When the time came to Friday, Lin Baicheng went to Hutchison Whampoa and called Wei Li and Cheng Yufeng who had not left Xiangjiang to the office.

"I called you here today to tell you something."

Lin Baicheng told the two of them about Mai Lihao's conversation with him, and then said: "I just want to hear your opinions. If you have any ideas, just say them."

Wei Li did not express his opinion immediately after hearing this. He is British after all, so Lin Baicheng, the boss, may think that he has selfish intentions, so it is better to let Cheng Yufeng speak first.

Cheng Yufeng said very seriously: "Mr. Lin, the Governor's meaning is already obvious. I think for the sake of your career in Xiangjiang, it is necessary for Hutchison Whampoa to invest in the UK."

Hearing what Cheng Yufeng said, Wei Li said: "After all, the UK has a deep foundation and a huge market. I think that if the company invests in the past, as long as it finds the right direction, it should be able to take the company to a higher level."

"It seems that you are all more inclined to let Hutchison Whampoa invest in the UK."

Lin Baicheng nodded when he heard the words. In fact, after thinking about it for more than a day, he also thought so.Now Xiangjiang still belongs to the UK in name, and his career in Xiangjiang is not small, and it is not for him to side with the UK, so there is no need to resolutely refuse and make the relationship too rigid.

What's more, it's just investing in the past, and it's not about donating all the money. Investment in the past doesn't mean that you will lose money, and there is even a great possibility of making money, so there is no need to strongly refuse.

Cheng Yufeng said: "Mr. Lin, although it is in your interest to invest in Hutchison Whampoa in the past, you must consider when to invest, how much money to invest, and what industry to choose."

"As the funds from investment profits have arrived, the company's account now has about 60 billion Hong Kong dollars in funds, so I think this investment can be larger, and choose an industry that can develop enough to become a pillar enterprise to enter." Wei Li said. the opinion of.

After a pause, Wei Li continued: "Actually, if possible, the market prospect of the energy industry is large enough, but to enter this industry not only requires a strong relationship, but also the company must meet certain conditions. It’s impossible to get that opportunity.”

"In industries such as energy, military industry, and finance, we should not think about it with Huang. Such good things are not our turn."

Lin Baicheng immediately said that similar industries either have special requirements, or have good prospects and have already been taken over by British capital, and it is not Hutchison Whampoa's turn to get involved.

"Mr. Lin, what do you think of the auto industry?"

Cheng Yufeng asked aloud, and took the initiative to explain: "I think that as people's economic conditions get better and better, cars will gradually become popular. The market prospect of this industry is huge, and the investment is not low. It is very suitable for Hutchison Huang's current situation."

"The auto industry?"

Lin Baicheng couldn't help pondering when he heard the words. Of course he was optimistic about the market prospects of the automobile industry, but the problem was that he originally planned to use his own funds to enter the manufacturing field, instead of entering this market through Hutchison Whampoa.

After all, Lin Baicheng can only hold nearly 50% of the shares of Hutchison Whampoa at most. If he is a sole proprietorship, he can earn all the profits, but if he is replaced by Hutchison Whampoa, he can only get less than half of the profits.

However, letting Hutchison Whampoa enter the auto industry is not without benefits for Lin Baicheng. At least the funds needed to build a car are no longer all out of his own pocket.

Building a car is not an easy task. It costs a lot of money to acquire a brand at the beginning, at least hundreds of millions of dollars, and then it requires investment in building a car, and hundreds of millions of dollars in research and development plus production.

If everything goes well, it’s fine, but if things don’t go well in the middle, unless you give up, you still have to invest money, and each investment is not a small amount.

"Willie, what do you think?"

After a while, Lin Baicheng looked at Wei Li.

"Ten or twenty years ago, the automobile industry in the UK was still very strong, and Rolls-Royce was famous all over the world. However, due to the influence of national policies, the form of the automobile industry became more and more dangerous. Cheap Japanese cars prevail."

"However, the foundations of some old car companies are still there. Both brand effects and patented technologies are very good. If we can acquire a brand plus technology, it will be very helpful for us to enter this industry."

"As for the prospects of the automobile industry, it can be seen from the increasing number of cars on the streets in Xiangjiang in recent years."

"In the past, Hehuang didn't have the strength to enter this industry. After all, the investment in this industry is not low. Now that Hehuang has the strength and chooses an industry to invest in, why not choose the automobile industry?"

Wei Li didn't say anything good, but thought from Lin Baicheng's standpoint.

"The auto industry? I'll seriously consider it!"

Lin Baicheng nodded, and did not make a decision right away. He had to think about it again, and there was no rush anyway.

After a while, Wei Li and Cheng Yufeng bid farewell and left from Lin Baicheng's office.

Lin Baicheng thought about it seriously, and there is no problem in choosing the automobile industry. Now what he has to consider is whether to let Hutchison Whampoa enter this industry, or whether Lin Baicheng will use his own funds to invest in this industry.

"Cars.. Cars I remember decades later the future of the auto industry is new energy vehicles!"

After thinking about the meeting, Lin Baicheng suddenly remembered that after several decades, new energy vehicles will be the future of the auto industry.

In this way, Lin Baicheng can actually do this.Let Hutchison Whampoa enter the automobile manufacturing industry, while Lin Baicheng himself used the money to set up a battery manufacturing company to develop new energy technologies and lay the foundation for entering new energy vehicles in the future.

Leave the present to Hutchison Whampoa, and hold the future in your hands, so Lin Baicheng will not lose money.

Although he had made a decision, Lin Baicheng did not contact Mai Lihao immediately. There was no need for him to be anxious about this matter, but it would be good for him to make a decision.

In the evening, Lin Baicheng took a private jet to Tokyo.

It was quite late when the plane arrived in Tokyo. Lin Baicheng took a car to the villa where Momoe Yamaguchi lived. He had already contacted Momoe Yamaguchi before coming here.

"Your Majesty, you are here."

Baihui Yamaguchi, who knew that Lin Baicheng was coming, had been waiting in the lobby.

"Are there any guests at home?"

The reason why Lin Baicheng asked this was because there were two pairs of shoes at the door.

"Well, it's my sister."

Momoe Yamaguchi nodded slightly, and explained: "She and my mother had a quarrel because of some things and ran away from home. I can only let her live here temporarily today. Don't worry, Cheng Jun, I will take her back tomorrow."

"Why do you want her to go back?"

Lin Baicheng took Yamaguchi Baihui's hand and walked towards the sofa: "I have already given you this villa, and your name is also written on the property right certificate, and you are its owner. Not only your sister, but if you If mother is willing, she can also live in, so that your family can live together."

"Is this... really okay?"

Momoe Yamaguchi was heartbroken. She and her sister were raised by their mothers hard, so she has a deep relationship with her family, and she couldn't be more willing to live with them.The reason why she didn't do this before was because the villa was given by Lin Baicheng, and she didn't dare to take her family over rashly.

"Of course it is true. Do you think I will lie to you?"

Sitting on the sofa, Lin Baicheng held the beauty's waist.

"No, I know you won't lie to me."

Yamaguchi Baihui immediately shook her head, and she said: "I am mainly worried, if my mother and sister live in, what will you do when you come over?" Although the villa is already hers, it is impossible for Lin Baicheng to come over Tell him not to come over.And with his mother and younger sister around, Lin Baicheng was not suitable to come here.

Lin Baicheng smiled and said: "What's the matter, I still have many villas here in Tokyo, and I will arrange another villa as our love nest. You can rest assured that your mother and younger sister will live in it. "

".Thank you, Makoto."

Momoe Yamaguchi thanked her aloud and forced a smile.

Seeing this, Lin Baicheng was a little puzzled: "Why, you don't seem very happy? Could it be that my arrangement is not good?"

"No, Mr. Cheng, you think so much about me, it's too late for me to be happy."

Momoe Yamaguchi shook her head with a smile. Lin Baicheng's consideration for her really made her very happy, but she had some extravagant expectations in her heart. How much she hoped that Lin Baicheng would come here as he said in the future, and meet her mother and sister, so that the two Human relationships are on the surface.

"This is what I should do."

Lin Baicheng kissed Baihui Yamaguchi, and then remembered: "By the way, is your nominal father still pestering you now? If so, just tell me, I will let someone solve it, absolutely not Let him interfere with your life."

"Cheng Jun, don't worry, he hasn't appeared since I gave him a large sum of money last time to sever relations with him."

Momoe Yamaguchi shook her head lightly. In fact, the current relationship between the two is still related to her father. In order to get a lot of money to get rid of her nominal father, she chose to sell her body and give up her true love.

In fact, if the father in name only asked for money, Momoe Yamaguchi would not have gone to the point of prostitution, but that man was going to file a lawsuit with her mother to ask for the custody of her and her sister, which she could not accept , forcing her to take this step.

Fortunately, Baihui Yamaguchi met Lin Baicheng, who was young and handsome, and treated her very well. The only thing that made her sad was that the two of them didn't spend much time together, and they were not serious boyfriend and girlfriend.

"It's fine if you don't show up."

Lin Baicheng reminded aloud: "But not showing up now doesn't mean it won't show up in the future. If Baihuifeng Co., Ltd. develops and grows in the future, and your chairman's identity is exposed, that person is likely to come to you again for money. At that time, if If this kind of thing really happened, you must tell me, and I will help you deal with it."

"Don't worry, Mr. Cheng, I don't have any feelings for that man. If he dares to show up again, I won't be polite to him."

Yamaguchi Baihui immediately said, let alone the future, if that man dared to show up now, she would ask the bodyguards arranged by Lin Baicheng to teach him a lesson. She did not regard that man as her father at all.

"If you can say that, then I can rest assured."

After clapping Baihui Yamaguchi's hand, Lin Baicheng didn't say much anymore. The nominal father of Momoe Yamaguchi was just a trivial matter to him.

Momoe Yamaguchi asked: "Mr. Cheng, are you hungry now? Do you want to eat something?"

Lin Baicheng nodded: "Hungry, I'm very hungry now!"

"Then I'll get you something to eat."

Momoe Yamaguchi said that she was about to get up.

"I'm not talking about this kind of hunger."

Lin Baicheng held Baihui Yamaguchi's hand, picked her chin and said, "I have to eat you, otherwise, I won't be able to fill my stomach."

"Your Majesty."

At this time, Momoe Yamaguchi didn't know what kind of hunger Lin Baicheng was talking about.

"Let's go!"

Lin Baicheng hugged Momoe Yamaguchi in a princess hug.

Momoe Yamaguchi is not tall and has a slender figure, and Lin Baicheng exercises regularly, so there is no problem in picking her up.

"If only we were in a normal relationship."

Putting her hands around Lin Baicheng's neck, Momoe Yamaguchi couldn't help thinking.Even though she knew it was wishful thinking, she just couldn't help fantasizing about it sometimes.

the next morning.

"Sister! Sister! There are some strangers at home!"

While Lin Baicheng and Momoe Yamaguchi were still asleep, a girl a few years younger than Momoe Yamaguchi broke into the room yelling.

"Shuhui, you go out first, sister, I will go out in a while."

Baihui Yamaguchi, who was woken up, looked at Lin Baicheng in a panic, and found that he had also woken up.

"Hi!"

Lin Baicheng greeted Yamaguchi Momoe's younger sister with a little embarrassment.

"Konni seven wow!"

The little girl bowed politely to greet Lin Baicheng, then turned and ran out.

Seeing this, Lin Baicheng couldn't help smiling, and said to Yamaguchi Baihui: "Your sister is very polite."

"I knew that I should have gone to bed early last night, and it's all your fault, Mr. Cheng."

Momoe Yamaguchi thumped Lin Baicheng with some complaints, got up and went to the closet to get her pajamas.

"Do you blame me?"

Lin Baicheng couldn't help shrugging his shoulders. The two hadn't seen each other for a while. Momoe Yamaguchi was very enthusiastic and active last night, so Momoe Yamaguchi was also responsible for playing late.But, that kind of thing must not be said out loud.

After Momoe Yamaguchi changed into her pajamas and went out, Lin Baicheng got up and took a shower. When she came out, she saw Momoe Yamaguchi waiting in the room.

"Cheng Jun, I don't have time to accompany you today, if you have anything to do, go and do it yourself."

Momoe Yamaguchi walked into the bathroom with a change of clothes while talking, apparently also wanting to take a bath.

Lin Baicheng went downstairs first, and Yamaguchi Momoe's younger sister Yamaguchi Shuhui was sitting on the sofa watching TV. Seeing this, he walked over and chatted with Yamaguchi Shuhui.

During the chat, Shuhui Yamaguchi regarded Lin Baicheng as Momoe Yamaguchi's boyfriend, and asked many things about their relationship, such as when they met and when they dated, etc. Lin Baicheng did not deny this, but made up a lie.

At this time, Lin Baicheng must give Yamaguchi Momoe face, and it is impossible to tell Yamaguchi Shuhui that the two are lovers.

Baihui Yamaguchi came down and went to prepare breakfast. Lin Baicheng took the opportunity to tell her the lie he made up, so that Baihui Yamaguchi would not get caught.

Momoe Yamaguchi was very grateful to Lin Baicheng for doing this, and at the same time very happy.

After breakfast, Lin Baicheng left the villa.
