Hong Kong variety show: Hung Hing, are you contributing to society?

Lin Yaodong looked at Boss B's profile. His face bore the marks of time and scars, but at this moment, it showed more weariness than anything else.

He knew that Boss B didn't need answers; he was just talking to himself.

"From a small-time hoodlum to where I am today," Boss B continued. "I have money, I have status, and I have both a son and a daughter. Logically, I should be content. But sometimes I think about it, and I've lost quite a bit over the years..."

Lin Yaodong simply nodded in agreement without saying a word.

The car soon arrived at Laifu Restaurant.

This is a long-established, three-story restaurant with antique-style decor.

As soon as Boss B entered, the boss personally came to greet him.

"Brother B, the usual place?" the boss asked with a broad smile.

"Yes, the lobby on the second floor." Boss B said, turning back to Lin Yaodong with a smile, "Let's make it lively today, the private rooms are too stuffy."

In the second-floor hall, dozens of brothers squeezed into seven or eight tables.

One after another, dim sum dishes were served: shrimp dumplings, siu mai, chicken feet, spare ribs, rice noodle rolls, and char siu buns, all laid out in abundance.

Boss B waved his hand generously: "Order more if you're still not full, we'll cover you all today!"

Everyone was happy, eating and chatting at the same time.

Some thanked Brother B for treating them, some complimented Lin Yaodong on becoming a councilor, and others tentatively asked, "Brother Dong, when are you treating us? You've become a councilor now, you should at least throw a few tables, right?"

Lin Yaodong smiled and agreed, "I'll treat everyone to a feast when I take office at the start of the year. We'll have a continuous banquet on Causeway Bay Street, everyone come!"

"Great! Dong-ge is straightforward!"

"Dong Ge is awesome!"

"Dong Ge is the most awesome!!"

Chan Ho-nam was also present.

He sat in the corner, not saying much, just drinking one glass after another.

But he had a smile on his face and seemed very happy.

In broad daylight, he was drinking baijiu, and it was the strong Erguotou.

Da Tian Er and Bao Pi, who were standing next to him, advised him to drink less, but he waved his hand and continued to chug.

Lin Yaodong looked at Chen Haonan from afar, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Why is this kid so happy today? Did he guess something?

The news that Boss B was retiring from the underworld had not yet spread, and only a few people knew about the candidates.

Why is Chan Ho-nam so happy? Does he think he's about to take over? Lin Yao-dong picked up his teacup and took a small sip.

He knew in his heart that Chen Haonan's hopes were likely to be dashed.

Merit speaks for itself. Gao Jin's merits are there for all to see. What can Chen Haonan compare to?

loyalty?

Loyalty?

How much is loyalty worth?

Ah Nan, the timing of your appearance is always so inopportune... Lin Yaodong shook his head inwardly.

The tea drinking continued until 11:30, which was lunchtime.

Everyone then dispersed, still feeling quite unsatisfied.

Lin Yaodong had originally planned to go to the company at eight o'clock in the morning, but now he was several hours late, and people had been waiting for a long time.

I'm leaving for New Zealand and Australia tonight, so I need to have a clear idea of ​​my work schedule for the next two weeks.

At noon, Lin Yaodong arrived at Oriental Property Company in Mong Kok.

In the office, executives from various locations had arrived. Some were eating boxed lunches, but when they saw Lin Yaodong enter, they quickly put down their lunchboxes and went into the conference room.

In the huge conference room, all the key personnel had already arrived.

Xiao Fu, Gao Jin, Zhou Xingxing, Su Jianqiu, and several branch managers all sat upright.

Lin Yaodong took his seat at the head of the table and got straight to the point: "I'm going to Australia and New Zealand for a charity event, which is expected to take about two weeks. I've called everyone here today to hear about my recent situation and to arrange the work ahead..."

Lin Yaodong finished speaking.

Xiao Fu was the first to stand up and report.

He was the head of Oriental Construction, holding a thick stack of documents in his hand, but he barely looked at them and said directly: "Oriental Construction's Oriental Pearl project has been almost completely sold out since it officially went on sale today."

Only 65 large apartments, 128 medium apartments, and 208 small apartments remain unsold...

He paused, then continued, "Total sales amounted to 6.6325 billion. The Oriental Pearl project was fully funded by our company, Oriental Construction, with a gross profit margin fluctuating around 60%, resulting in a profit of nearly 4 billion..."

Following that, we also have integrated renovation services, with total profits expected to reach 60 billion...

"Next, the construction company's main focus will be on renovating the homes of the residents of the Oriental Pearl Tower."

After Xiao Fu finished speaking, he closed the document.

A low gasp of surprise rippled through the conference room.

A single real estate project can generate 60 billion yuan in profit?

And some of the houses haven't been sold yet?

Aside from the subsequent renovation costs, 40 billion yuan has already been received.

What does 4 billion mean? This is Hong Kong in the 1990s, where the average salary was only three or four thousand.

40 billion, that's an astronomical figure.

Is real estate really that profitable?

This was the thought that popped into everyone's mind at the same time.

Lin Yaodong nodded slightly.

He specifically instructed Xiao Fu to carry out the project with integrity and not to cut corners.

If you're willing to add more "ingredients," with this kind of luxury home configuration, the gross profit margin could even reach 70% or 75%.

But he didn't want to earn that kind of money.

Reputation is more important than profit.

After Xiao Fu finished speaking, Gao Jin stood up.

He was the head of Oriental Property Management, holding documents in his hand: "Oriental Property Management in Mong Kok has expanded its staff from 500 to 1,500. Its Causeway Bay branch has expanded from 3,000 to 5,000... The current number of employees will be further increased as appropriate, depending on the volume of business we undertake."

He glanced at Lin Yaodong: "At the same time, we will also take on the property management business of the Oriental Pearl Community. The relevant team has been formed, with Liang Jiahao as the general manager in charge of management."

Liang Jiahao, nicknamed Big Head, stood up.

He looked at Lin Yaodong, somewhat nervously: "Ah... Chairman, I promise to do my job well!"

He was supposed to call him Ah Dong, but realizing the situation, he immediately changed his address.

Lin Yaodong nodded with a smile.

After Da Tou was released from prison, he really seemed like a different person.

No more impulsiveness, no more recklessness, I am now calm and reliable in my actions.

He possesses a unique leadership charisma; he is capable of handling tasks, and his subordinates all respect him.

Making him the property manager of the Oriental Pearl residential complex would be very suitable.

Next up is Dongfang Electronics.

Manager Zhou Xingxing stood up and cleared his throat.

He's been riding high lately, and he's gotten quite fat, or rather... superficial.

This kid must be going to clubs a lot lately...

When Stephen Chow opened his mouth, he still looked nervous: "Dongfang Electronics...we produced a total of 14250 DVD projectors. And...1,800...uh, no, 12547200 discs..."

He almost said eighteen million, but then suddenly remembered that those millions were "art" films and couldn't be included in the financial statements, so he quickly changed his mind.

Sweat was beading on his forehead.

Lin Yaodong glanced at him but didn't say anything.

Then Su Jianqiu also gave a report, along with several managers from the branch offices.

After listening to each point, Lin Yaodong set the tone: "For the next month, stability will be the priority, with continued development as the main objective."

Don't be reckless, don't make any big moves, focus on solidifying your existing business...
