In Hong Kong, we build a global business empire

Chapter 210 Two richest men come together

What happened in the Philippines can only be dealt with coldly for the time being.

After all, forming an armed force is not something that can be accomplished in a short period of time.

He has no roots in the Philippines now and has only developed some small industries. How can he fight against the local tyrants?

What's more, the market in the Visayas Islands and even the market in Mindanao further south are not actually that big, and it is not necessary to enter them.

The prosperous market there is basically concentrated on Luzon, the largest island in the Philippines. As long as Qingzhou Yingni Company occupies enough market share in Luzon, its market expansion in the Philippines can still be considered very successful.

The entire Nanyang market is huge, and Qingzhou Yingmu Company still has a lot of progress to make. In countries like Malaysia and Singapore, Qingzhou Yingmu Company has already entered the local markets.

Therefore, we can only enter other markets first. In the future, if we have the strength to violently solve the difficulties encountered in entering the Visayas market, we will naturally be able to enter.

Moreover, after experiencing this incident, Lin Haoran also gained a wealth of experience.

On the one hand, he decided to have Burton and the heads of other holding companies continue to strengthen risk assessments of overseas businesses.

In the process of expanding overseas markets, we should not only focus on commercial interests, but also fully consider the local social environment and security risks.

For areas with poor public security and rampant criminal gangs, adequate preparations must be made in advance, including establishing good relations with local governments and police and seeking legal ways of protection.

On the other hand, he decided to speed up the establishment of a security company.

Find a time to send someone to the mainland, or even go there in person, to communicate with relevant departments and discuss the possibility of recruiting retired soldiers.

At the same time, we must also start to formulate a development plan for the security company and clarify the company's business scope, service standards and management model.

He hopes to provide all-round security protection for his company by building a professional, efficient and reliable security team.

In addition, Lin Haoran is also considering cooperating with other companies that have operations overseas to jointly address security risks.

There are countless Hong Kong businessmen investing in the Philippines, such as Bao Yugang, Li Jiacheng, Li Mingze and others, who all own their own businesses there.

By uniting together, companies can share resources and support each other, which is enough to improve their ability to deal with criminal forces.

After chatting with Burton for a long time, he went to the Finance Department to chat with Huo Jianning before leaving Qingzhou Yingni Company.

Ho Kin Ning has basically trained his successor to replace him as financial director. After a period of time, as long as it is confirmed that the successor can completely and independently control the finance department of Ching Chau Cement Company, he can directly jump to the Hong Kong Electric Group and find a larger development platform.

Although Qingzhou Cement Company has developed rapidly over the past year, the gap between it and Hong Kong Electric Group is still huge.

The gap between the two cannot be narrowed in a short period of time.

What's more, when Tsing Chau Ying Ni was developing rapidly, the Hong Kong Electric Group was also developing rapidly, and its development speed was no slower than that of Tsing Chau Ying Ni. The diversified development made the Hong Kong Electric Group more and more like a comprehensive Hong Kong listed giant.

"Boss, are we going to AMG or HK Electric Group next?" Li Weiguo turned around and asked from the driver's seat.

In the past, when Lin Haoran came to Qingzhou Yingni Company, he would always go to Aigo Company because the two places were not far away.

That's why Li Weiguo asked this question.

"Let's go to the Joy Lai Restaurant for lunch first, and then go to the Hong Kong Electric Group!" Lin Haoran looked at the time. It was already past twelve o'clock, so it was a good time to have lunch first.

He left home at nine o'clock, but he didn't expect that more than three hours had passed in the blink of an eye.

As for Aigo, there has been nothing big happening there recently and he is too lazy to go there.

With Liu Luanxiong around, he doesn't have to worry about Aimego Company at all.

If there is something that Liu Luanxiong can't handle, he will call Lin Haoran. During the time when he invested in AIMEGO, Liu Luanxiong called Lin Haoran frequently.

After all, for Liu Luanxiong, many things that were difficult for him to handle could basically be handled by Lin Haoran, so it was naturally best to find Lin Haoran when encountering difficulties.

After lunch, Lin Haoran asked Li Weiguo to drive to Hong Kong Electric Group.

I stayed in the Hong Kong Electric Group for another afternoon and then left.

This time, his destination was not his home in Shi Xundao Villa, but his parents' home in Deep Water Bay Villa.

In the afternoon, Lin's father called and told him that Guo Henian would come to visit in the evening and have dinner together at Lin's house, so he asked Lin Haoran to go back.

It was obvious that the reason Guo Henian visited the Lin family was for Lin Haoran.

As for Lin Wanan, it is not worth Guo Henian’s personal visit.

Naturally, this matter cannot be refused.

Guo Henian can be considered his senior in the business world.

Moreover, he just happened to need to strengthen cooperation with these Nanyang business leaders to avoid the recurrence of bad incidents like the one that happened to the Philippines branch of Qingzhou Yingni. There would definitely be a certain effect of cooperation.

In fact, Lin Haoran just returned to his villa in Deep Water Bay two days ago. The two days ago were the Lantern Festival, so it was natural for him to go home and spend time with his parents on such a festival.

So although Lin's mother was happy when she returned home this time, she did not feel the joy of reunion after a long separation.

"Dad, what is it that Mr. Guo wants to talk to me about?" Lin Haoran asked his father curiously in the study room on the first floor of the Lin family villa.

"Mr. Guo didn't say specifically what he wanted to say on the phone. I guess he hopes to strengthen cooperation with you. After all, you are no longer the same as you were before." Lin Wanan thought for a moment and said.

Lin Haoran nodded, and then chatted with his father Lin Wanan about some recent developments.

However, in order not to worry Lin's father, Lin Haoran did not tell him what happened to Qingzhou Yingni Company in the Philippines.

When facing parents, one should only report good news and not bad news. At 6 pm, Guo Henian arrived at the Lin family villa on time.

Following closely behind him was still his niece Guo Xiaohan.

To his surprise, Guo Xiaohan looked even prettier and more charming today, as if she had been carefully dressed up.

Father Lin first shook hands and greeted Guo Henian, and then Lin Haoran followed closely.

"Uncle Guo, Miss Guo, good evening!" Lin Haoran shook hands and greeted them with a smile on his face.

"Nephew Lin, you really opened my eyes. I remember when we met last year, you had just acquired Qingzhou Cement Company. I didn't expect that in such a short period of time, you have successively brought large listed companies such as Hong Kong Electric Group and China Gas Company under your control. Even I am ashamed of such achievements." Guo Henian was full of emotion.

Guo Henian is in charge of a huge family business with assets worth tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars.

However, even for him, it was hard to imagine that he could successfully acquire listed companies such as Hong Kong Electric Group and China Gas Company from Hong Kong business giants such as Jardine Matheson like Lin Haoran.

"It's just that I was luckier. Uncle Guo, Miss Guo, please come in and take a seat. Dinner is ready." Lin Haoran responded modestly.

Guo Xiaohan's gaze never left Lin Haoran, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.

The last time Guo Xiaohan met Lin Haoran for the first time, she had a good impression of him.

Subsequently, Lin Haoran's business actions that shocked the Chinese community time and time again made her unconsciously admire him.

Knowing that her uncle would come to visit the Lin family tonight, she took some time to go home and dress up carefully.

The purpose is to leave a deep impression in front of Lin Haoran.

At this time, there was another knock on the door.

"Daddy, please take Uncle Guo and Miss Guo in first. I'll go see who it is." Lin Haoran suggested.

Lin Wanan nodded in agreement, then led the two into the hall.

At the same time, a servant came forward and opened the door.

"Huh? Isn't this Uncle Bao?" Seeing Bao Yugang standing outside the door, Lin Haoran couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

"Haoran, I hope I didn't cause you any trouble by coming to visit you without saying hello?" Bao Yugang asked with a smile.

"No, no, we're so happy that Uncle Bao can come. We're just preparing dinner at home. If you don't mind, come in and eat with us. Mr. Guo from Kerry Group is also here." Lin Haoran made an inviting gesture and then said.

He visited Bao Yugang during the Spring Festival, but the two had no contact since then.

My father did not mention that Bao Yugang would come. Obviously, Bao Yugang was an uninvited guest who came on impulse.

Although he was not sure about the purpose of Bao Yugang's visit, Lin Haoran still upheld the spirit of hospitality. Besides, Bao Yugang, a senior in the business world, was quite nice to him.

"Then I won't be polite. Sorry to bother you!" Bao Yugang agreed happily.

The two of them walked into the front yard of the villa one after the other and went straight to the hall.

"Mr. Bao, please take a seat." Lin Wanan recognized the visitor as Bao Yugang at a glance, and quickly stood up from his chair and enthusiastically invited Bao Yugang to take a seat.

He really had not expected that Bao Yugang would come to visit him in person.

Although the two families lived next to each other, Bao Yugang had never stepped into the Lin family's door.

After all, there are significant gaps among the wealthy and powerful families.

Over the past year, Lin Haoran's position in the business world has become increasingly prominent, but he is not at home most of the time, so Bao Yugang naturally has never had the opportunity to visit him.

"Mr. Guo, I didn't expect you to be here too!" After Bao Yugang talked with Lin Wanan for a few words, he turned to Guo Henian, smiled and nodded in greeting.

"Mr. Bao, it's been a long time. I've always wanted to find a suitable opportunity to visit you. I didn't expect to meet you by chance at the Lin family today. It's such an honor." Guo Henian also responded enthusiastically to Bao Yugang's greetings.

Although Guo Henian is from Southeast Asia, he has entered the Hong Kong market for several years and has now settled in Hong Kong for a long time.

In recent years, the Chinese from Southeast Asia have entered the Hong Kong market in large numbers, bringing greater competition to Hong Kong. Therefore, the local wealthy people in Hong Kong are not very willing to pay attention to these wealthy people from Southeast Asia, and some even reject them.

However, Guo Henian was like a fish in water in Hong Kong. Not only did he establish cooperative relationships with many local businessmen, he also quickly integrated into the circle of Hong Kong's wealthy.

In addition, Guo Henian already had a prominent position in the business world and was known as the richest man in Nanyang with abundant financial resources. Therefore, many Hong Kong businessmen were happy to work with him.

"Our Lin family is so honored today to have the two richest men visiting us!" Lin Wanan said with a smile on his face.

Bao Yugang is well-known as the richest Chinese in Hong Kong, while Guo Henian is recognized as the richest man in Malaysia.

Lin Wanan had never dared to imagine such a situation before.

Although the Lin family was considered a wealthy family in the past, it was only an entry-level family. Compared with giants like Bao Yugang and Guo Henian, the gap was too huge.

The dinner was spent with various greetings and exchanges.

In fact, Lin Haoran is not keen on this kind of social dinners. Therefore, although he is the helmsman of several companies, he rarely participates in such activities on weekdays.

As for tonight, it is unavoidable. There is no way. The social event has already been held at his house. How can I avoid it?

After dinner, Lin Wanan, Lin Haoran, Bao Yugang, Guo Henian, Guo Xiaohan and others walked into the reception room on the first floor.
