Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon

While Xu Jiawei was arguing with many distributors, the first few cities had already started selling the product.

That morning, major shopping malls in several cities were packed with people.

The public is waiting to see if the so-called "998" is just a scam.

But when it actually went on sale, they found that there were no tricks, and even various discounts.

For example, by depositing 2,000 yuan at once, you can get a Shenzhou Tong card for free.

For example, the trick of saving 99 yuan on family packs has been used extensively.

This immediately drove ordinary citizens into a frenzy, and even spawned a large number of scalpers.

In just one morning, they completely emptied the Shenzhou Tong cards at various department store counters.

The sales team was urging Shenzhou Technology to ship the goods; this kind of thing was happening almost everywhere.

Those who managed to snag a phone were naturally overjoyed, while those who didn't were rather annoyed.

The fact that scalpers have driven the price of Shenzhou Tong phones up to nearly 3,000 yuan each has made ordinary citizens even more upset.

Moreover, this kind of thing is showing a trend of escalating.

In the end, Xu Jiawei had no choice but to issue a statement and implement measures such as limiting purchases and placing additional orders.

"Shenzhou Technology Co., Ltd. launched the Shenzhou Tong service with the original intention of facilitating the communication needs of the general public. Therefore, we have a zero-tolerance attitude towards any illegal resale or scalping activities, and cooperate with local police in cracking down on scalping!"

"Furthermore, Shenzhou Technology Company will be opening eight new production lines in Longkou Science and Technology Park! To meet everyone's enthusiastic expectations, we are working overtime to produce them, so please be patient, the supply issue will be resolved soon!"

The announcement from Shenzhou Technology was indeed effective.

The agitated consumers were quickly calmed down.

Moreover, the police's cooperation in cracking down on scalpers was very successful.

This can be said to have greatly alleviated the pressure faced by the company.

As Shenzhou Tong (神州通) products were distributed nationwide, some of its drawbacks became apparent.

That means the signal is extremely weak!
After all, PHS technology is outdated and is no different from solidification.

Therefore, in places with poor signal, such as underground tunnels, remote areas without cell tower coverage, or elevators, it is easy to lose signal or have extremely weak signal.

This results in a very poor user experience.

However, after all, you can experience the fun of mobile phones for just "998".

Moreover, it's a one-way billing system, and the communication fees are so cheap.

Many users still gritted their teeth and endured it; what more could they ask for at 998?

Moreover, this minor drawback does not dampen consumers' enthusiasm for purchasing.

After all, even if you don't use it, Shenzhou Tong is still a great tool for showing off.

Its stylish design, lightweight and compact size, along with built-in games and MP3 functionality, are all reasons why it has become a best-selling product.

These days, if you don't have a China Mobile phone, you'd be embarrassed to even greet people.

The phenomenal sales figures of Shenzhou Tong instantly made Shenzhou Technology Company the brightest star in the entire Longkou.

Those manufacturers who had been following in the footsteps of Shenzhou Technology were completely dumbfounded.

I never expected that Shenzhou Technology Company would be so ruthless, not giving them any chance to copy it at all.

Even if you have the ability to create the same Shenzhoutong using PHS technology, you still can't sell it without the support of the three major telecom operators.

This is practically a monopoly business; it's no wonder it's making money.

In just one week, Shenzhou Tong generated a net profit of 100 million yuan, which surprised many people.

During this period, Xu Jiawei gained a lot of face.

After all, he is the current CEO of Digital China Technology Group Corporation, and was even named one of the top ten business figures of the year.

"Hehe, boss, I might have overdone it this time!"

Upon arriving at Chen Jiajun's office, Xu Jiawei spoke to Chen Jiajun somewhat apologetically.

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "It's alright. Anyway, you're the CEO of Shenzhou Technology now, so you have to handle this kind of thing!"

"How could I possibly be worthy of such a title? Without your brilliant leadership, boss, I could never have come up with so many business strategies!" Xu Jiawei said with admiration.

Chen Jiajun immediately laughed and scolded, "Stop flattering me. I'll be grateful if you just do your job well. By the way, are all the talents you've trained here? Call them over; I have something to tell them."

Xu Jiawei immediately nodded and called all the professionals he had previously recruited into Chen Jiajun's office.

Chen Jiajun was very satisfied with the plan, so he promoted and gave all the young people a raise.

They even promised to give them a certain number of shares.

Chen Jiajun wasn't just making empty promises. After all, all the talents at Shenzhou Technology were cultivated by themselves. If they were poached by others, Chen Jiajun would be devastated.

It is thanks to this group of people that Xu Jiawei has been able to sit so securely in the CEO position without making any mistakes.

So the triple whammy of promotion, salary increase, and stock options really got these young people excited.

Having resolved the issues with Shenzhou Technology, Chen Jiajun handed over the matter to Xu Jiawei.

After all, the most complicated stage has passed, and now all that's left is to control production and wait to collect the money.

Although sales in Hong Kong are quite good, the market here in my hometown is still much larger.

Moreover, Hong Kong serves as a stepping stone for our hometown to connect with the world, and its mobile phone industry is far more developed than that of our hometown.

It was within Chen Jiajun's expectations that things did not meet them.

After glancing at the report, he patted Su Xingbai, who looked dejected, and said, "Don't be discouraged, you've done enough!"

Su Xingbai said somewhat unwillingly, "But it can't compare to the sales volume of just one city back in my hometown!"

Chen Jiajun smiled and explained to Su Xingbo, which helped the young man regain his confidence.

Just as the two were talking, the phone on Chen Jiajun's desk rang. It was Mr. Huo calling.

The big bosses seemed to be drinking tea and were in a very good mood.

"Ah Jun, you're back in Hong Kong? When are you coming over to have a cup of tea with us old folks?" Fok Ying-nam said with a smile.

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "I'll be there right away!"

After hanging up the phone, he asked Ilsa to prepare a car and went directly to the Chinese Chamber of Commerce's headquarters.

As soon as Chen Jiajun entered, he heard the hearty laughter of several big bosses.

When she saw Chen Jiajun coming over, she immediately pulled him down to sit.

"I really didn't expect that the company you casually asked us to invest in back then would have such potential!" Mr. Bao said, laughing and patting Chen Jiajun on the shoulder.

Chen Jiajun shook his head: "This is nothing! I still have some tough tricks up my sleeve!"

"Huh, Shenzhou Tong isn't the 'hardcore' thing you were talking about?" Lin Zeming looked at Chen Jiajun with surprise.

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "Shenzhou Tong has its drawbacks. The real game-changer is still in the confidential stage! Once the samples are ready, I'll send one over to a few big bosses to test it out!"

Hearing Chen Jiajun say this, the big bosses looked on with anticipation.

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "Shenzhou Tong is just something I'm using to make quick money! I estimate that this technology will be replaced by new technology soon, so I plan to maximize its profits."

After all, several of the major bosses of Shenzhou Technology Company own shares in the company.

Therefore, both logically and emotionally, Chen Jiajun needs the approval of the major bosses to take any action.

The big bosses had no doubt about Chen Jiajun's abilities and asked curiously, "How are you planning to maximize profits?"

Chen Jiajun grinned and said, "I'm planning to sell this outdated technology to those American devils!"

"Hey, aren't the Americans supposed to be a technological superpower? They think technology that you consider outdated is good enough for them?" Fok Ying-nan asked curiously.

Chen Jiajun smiled mysteriously and said, "So, a little packaging is needed! I'm preparing to take over some investments from United Aerospace Capital!"

"Isn't this just transferring money from one hand to the other? Oh... I see!" Bao Gangyu immediately realized what was going on, and pointed at Chen Jiajun with a smile, saying, "You're quite the rascal!"

The big bosses were all extremely shrewd, and they immediately understood what Chen Jiajun was planning to do.

They all burst into laughter: "Ah Jun, are you planning to rip off those Americans to death?!"

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "Why not make money off the Americans?"

"But it must be a bit difficult to operate, right?" Fok Ying-nam asked again.

Chen Jiajun laughed and said, "It's not difficult at all. Just find a loser to go public with an IPO! We can fleece the investors! After all, whether it's Hong Kong or my hometown, they're all our own people, and I can't bring myself to do it! So let's just let the Americans suffer!" Chen Jiajun explained the general plan to the big bosses and immediately got their approval.

So soon, Cao Weicai from United Aerospace Capital came to Longkou to make contact.

Anyway, Chen Jiajun had planned it all out beforehand, so there was no difficulty at all.

"Boss, I can't handle this kind of complicated operation!" Cao Weicai said speechlessly after hearing Chen Jiajun's plan.

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "Don't worry, I'll handle it myself! You just need to keep an eye out for some people for me!"

Cao Weicai nodded: "No problem, boss. When do you plan to leave?"

"Let's wait a while! I need to rest. You can start preparing! Let it ferment for a while first. I'm going to make those American devils suffer in silence!" Chen Jiajun waved his hand and said.

Cao Weicai nodded, and after handling the matter, he returned to the United States to campaign.

After all, Shenzhou Technology is worthless in the United States; nobody has even heard of it, so it will take some time to build up its reputation.

After resting in Hong Kong for half a month and spending time with his woman, Chen Jiajun set off for the United States.

……

New York, late at night.

After getting off his private jet, Chen Jiajun got into the car arranged by Cao Weicai, intending to go back to the hotel for a good rest.

Even with his own private jet, Chen Jiajun still felt somewhat tired after the long flight.

Not to mention it's already late at night.

He didn't want his biological clock to be disrupted, resulting in dark circles under his eyes the next morning.

He yawned and told his men to drive, when a disheveled figure in the distance caught his attention.

A young man in a suit, carrying a briefcase, stood to the side looking disheveled and raised his hand.
The driver looked at Chen Jiajun and asked, "Sir, do you need me to stop?"

I don't know if it was because of the young man's destitute state or because he looked like a celebrity.

Chen Jiajun still had the driver stop the car.

After rolling down the car window, the young man said anxiously to Chen Jiajun, "Kind sir, could you give me a ride? I need to go to Queens, but I can't get a taxi at this hour!"

Chen Jiajun looked the young man up and down, then said with a smile, "Come on up!"

After the young man got into the car, he realized that it was clearly a luxury car that he would never have dared to dream of.

The car's interior, the high-end electronic screen, and the freezer next to it constantly reminded him of this.

This made the young people seem a bit reserved after getting on the bus.

However, the young man still smiled and extended his hand to Chen Jiajun: "Thank you for your kindness, sir. My name is Jordan, Jordan Belfort!"

Chen Jiajun shook hands with him casually, but his eyes lit up when he heard his name.

If he remembered correctly, the seemingly down-on-his-luck young man in front of him was none other than the infamous Wolf of Wall Street!
“You can call me Mr. Chen!” Chen Jiajun said with a calm smile, “Mr. Belfort, what do you do for a living, and why are you in such a remote place at this hour?”

Jordan Belfort said apologetically, "I just got off the plane and was trying to carpool to Queens when the driver suddenly asked for a higher fare and dumped me out of the car! As for me, I'm a stockbroker! If you have any investment needs, sir, you can contact me!"

Chen Jiajun noticed that Jordan Belfort's eyes were evasive, indicating a lack of confidence.

They seemed particularly unsure when introducing their profession.

Even so, this kid didn't miss any opportunity to promote himself.

Moreover, it's immediately obvious that Chen Jiajun is a wealthy man, which is quite remarkable.

Chen Jiajun looked at Jordan Belfort with a half-smile and said, "You're a stockbroker, so you should recommend blue-chip stocks to me, not some unlicensed person recommending pink lists, right?"

In the United States, stocks are generally categorized into several types. Blue-chip stocks refer to those with stable performance, large float, and a large total share capital. The "pink sheets" that Chen Jiajun mentioned, however, are junk stocks that are not publicly listed.

This kind of stock certainly has no investment value, but it can bring huge profits to stockbrokers.

Upon hearing Chen Jiajun's words, Jordan Belfort involuntarily trembled.

Then, forcing a smile, he said to Chen Jiajun, "How...how could that be!"

Chen Jiajun didn't press further, he just smiled and remained silent.

Jordan Belfort, being quite sensible, didn't say anything more.

When they arrived at their destination, Jordan Belfort got out of the car again to say goodbye when Chen Jiajun suddenly called out to him.

“Mr. Belfort, there’s something I’d like you to do, something about stocks,” Chen Jiajun said to him.

Jordan Belfort visibly paused for a moment, then cautiously asked, "Can I know what it is?"

"I'm thinking of launching a company for an IPO. Do you have any ideas?" Chen Jiajun continued to ask.

Jordan Belfort immediately shook his head: "Sir, you'll probably have to find a professional agency for that. I'm just a small-time stockbroker, I don't have that capability!"

"What if I were to invest in you? Invest in a securities company?" Chen Jiajun smiled slightly, activating his financial power.

Jordan Belfort's breathing quickened, but he quickly regained his composure and said to Chen Jiajun with a wry smile, "Sir, please don't play me for a fool! Do you think someone like me is worth investing in?"

“Of course it’s worth it, Mr. Belfort!” Chen Jiajun smiled, took out the pen from his breast pocket, and handed it to Jordan Belfort, saying, “Sell me this pen?”

Jordan Belfort took the pen and remained silent for a moment.

Suddenly, as if she had just thought of something, she smiled broadly at Chen Jiajun and said, "Sir, I am your admirer. Could you please sign your autograph?"

Chen Jiajun smiled slightly and said, "Looks like I need a pen now?"

“That’s right!” Jordan Belfort laughed along.

Chen Jiajun nodded with satisfaction, handed over a business card and said, "Very good. If you have any ideas, just give me a call!"

Jordan Belfort took the business card and said to Chen Jiajun, "I will seriously consider it, Mr. Chen!"

Watching the luxury car drive away, Jordan Belfort suddenly realized something and muttered to himself, "Rules? Rules are worthless!"

……

Meeting Jordan Belfort was just a pleasant surprise.

Chen Jiajun knew how much of a scoundrel this guy was, so he thought that such a person was a good scapegoat. When his plan was about to begin, he could completely shift the blame to this guy.

They can even partner with aerospace capital without bearing any consequences.

Thinking about this, Chen Jiajun realized that he had unknowingly solved a huge problem.

So the next day, Cao Weicai was somewhat surprised when he saw Chen Jiajun: "Boss, is there something happy that happened?"

"That's right, a problem has been solved!" Chen Jiajun picked up his coffee, took a sip, frowned, and said, "How's the matter I asked you to handle going?"

Cao Weicai nodded: "United Aerospace Capital's investment in a little-known Asian company has indeed attracted a lot of attention! Now we just have to wait for them to take action and check Shenzhou Technology's financial statements! I think they will be very surprised!"

Chen Jiajun nodded: "No rush, let things develop for a while before we talk about it!"

Cao Weicai said with a smile, "By the way, boss, the 7-Eleven you asked me to keep an eye on has recently started operations in New Mexico. Shall we go check it out?"

"The shares with Southern Company have been settled?" Chen Jiajun asked Cao Weicai with some surprise.

United Aerospace Capital has been making investments, and Chen Jiajun has been continuously screening investments.

Recently, I came across a company that Chen Jiajun was very familiar with: 7-Eleven, one of the Fortune 11 companies in another world.

After 7-Eleven's parent company, Southern Company, failed in its diversified expansion and filed for bankruptcy, many people became optimistic about 7-Eleven's business.

Especially the Japanese, Ito-Yokado Corporation, seem to have been eyeing this lucrative opportunity for a long time.

However, United Aerospace Capital was no ordinary company. They offered Southern Company an irresistible price, defeating Ito-Yokado and directly acquiring Southern Company.

After all, United Aerospace Capital has money to burn!
As a result, this globally renowned convenience store chain was successfully acquired by United Aerospace Capital.

Chen Jiajun nodded: "The business has expanded to New Mexico?"

Cao Weicai nodded: "We have already started operations in Albuquerque and other places!"

Chen Jiajun asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why did you choose that place as your target?"

Cao Weicai said somewhat helplessly, "7-Eleven's situation isn't very good right now, and other companies are putting pressure on us, so we can only use this method to build momentum for now!"

Chen Jiajun asked with some surprise, "You're taking over now?"

"There's nothing we can do, we haven't found the right talent!" Cao Weicai said, spreading his hands. "I'm already looking for headhunters to bring over a suitable professional manager!"

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "Alright, let's go take a look! Let's see your skill level."

Cao Weicai said with a wry smile, "Boss, please don't make fun of me!" (End of Chapter)
