It is said that if you are poor in the busy city, you will have no one to care about you, while if you are rich in the mountains, you will have distant relatives. As a world-class shipping king, and the number one shipping king in the world, the Bao family naturally has many relatives.
However, looking at the appearance and imposing manner of the man in front of him, it seems that he is not just a distant relative, but a close relative, which is why he can live so well under the protection of the Bao family.
Yang Dongxu waved his hand and asked Du Fei to let go of him. Needless to say, the ship king's reputation, just based on the title of a patriotic businessman, he had to leave some room.
After all, patriotic businessmen like this older generation are truly patriotic businessmen, and they are completely different from the so-called patriotic businessmen of later generations who claim to be patriotic, but are just trying to make a lot of money.
You must know that at the end of the Great Chaos Era, when even the higher-ups were still at a loss about the future development of the motherland, the chartering king could directly come to the mainland to meet with any old man and made a lot of investments. This kind of behavior is obviously not for making money, but because he really wants to do something for his country.
However, Yang Dongxu had no respect for the man in front of him who was arrogantly entangled with Zhou Ya.
"Your uncle has a hard-earned reputation, don't cheat him." Yang Dongxu looked at the grinning man who was twisting his shoulders. It was obvious that Du Fei had done something wrong just now.
The man obviously still has some brains. He was so angry just now because Zhou Ya was too close to Yang Dongxu. In Hong Kong, he fell in love with the woman in front of him at first sight, and he almost broke his heart, but the other woman didn't even look at him. This kid in front of him Why are you so lucky?
But the other party actually had bodyguards with him, and he also found out Zhou Ya's identity as the boss of Xiushui Trading. Therefore, it was not easy for him to know Yang Dongxu's identity without investigating. What's more, the other party could directly talk about his uncle and grandfather, so he obviously knew his identity. Knowing his identity and still daring to warn like this proves that the other party is not simple.
"Who are you?" The man narrowed his eyes and looked at Yang Dongxu.
"None of your business." Yang Dongxu curled his lips and hugged Zhou Ya to leave.
The man was left stunned for a moment without reacting. The Ship King was his uncle and grandfather, and he was related by blood, even if he was just a cousin, and the other party should be the son of a certain family in Yanjing.
Both of them are people of status, and besides, I haven't done anything excessive to Zhou Ya. As people of high status, even if the two parties cannot sit together and drink tea, should they still be polite? What does it mean to use swear words directly?
"If we meet such a person in the future, if we don't like the other person but still pester him and just slap him, if the Bao family chooses not to cooperate with us because of this, then we won't cooperate. It proves that since the ship king, the Bao family has disappeared. Any outstanding person will definitely decline in the future." Yang Dongxu naturally understood why Zhou Ya had not gotten angry when being pestered by the other party.
But I dare not say that he dares to bully anyone now, but he is definitely not afraid of others daring to cause trouble. In short, I won't bully you, and you don't mess with me. If we can cooperate, we can make money together. If we can't, just get together and part ways.
At the same time, his words were not without purpose. The Bao family did decline after the Ship King. Although it was still a wealthy family in later generations, that was because the family was rich. Although the successor was not as good as the Ship King, it was not because of stupid people.
"I know, but when I met with the Bao family this time, the other party's attitude seemed a bit unpredictable." Zhou Ya hugged Yang Dongxu's arm, showing a slightly gentle look, not thinking of the meeting with the Bao family, Xiu Ya His eyebrows were raised.
"What's wrong?"
"Mr. Bao has not been in good health since last year, so the Bao family's property is currently being taken care of by his daughters and son-in-law. His eldest daughter does not seem to be as enthusiastic about the mainland as his father."
"This is a problem." Yang Dongxu also frowned.
In the past, patriotic businessmen invested in the country and said they were optimistic about the mainland market. That was sheer nonsense. At that time, many people at the top did not know what the future would bring. Do these immigrant businessmen have more confidence than the top management?
Their domestic investment is purely patriotic and they want to do something for the motherland. But modern businessmen who invest in China are half-patriotic and half-interested.
But this is normal. Confucius said that good deeds will be rewarded. This is correct, not to mention businessmen who value profits in the first place. Therefore, some people see the potential of the mainland market, while others are naturally not optimistic about it. This phenomenon is particularly obvious in Hong Kong.
Even the rich families have now taken the tacit consent to separate their families, let alone other people. The daughter of the charter king has grown up abroad and has no sense of belonging to the country. She does not have the fervent patriotism of her father. At the same time, she is not optimistic about the mainland market. It would be damned if she is still so enthusiastic about investing in the mainland.
But if the Bao family loses interest in investing in the mainland, Yang Dongxu will still have a headache, because the Hainan plan is already halfway underway and it is impossible to stop it now. Without the financial support of the Bao family for such a large project, he will be under greater pressure. .
"Is it a big impact?" Zhou Ya felt distressed when she saw Yang Dongxu frowning.
"There will definitely be some impact, but without Butcher Zhang, we can still eat plucked pigs. Anyway, that matter is out of date for the time being. It doesn't matter if we delay it for two years. We can slowly find partners. Besides, this matter mainly needs the state to take the lead." , If the superiors don’t let go, everything we do will be in vain.” Yang Dongxu smiled and said there was no need to worry.
The reason why he wanted to cooperate with the Bao family was because Yang Dongxu wanted to invest in ports in China. Having worked in Shenzhen, no one understood better than him how important shipping would be in future generations.
In the international trade of later generations, whether it is import or export, shipping is irreplaceable. If you can invest or even build a port of your own company, even if you don't do international trade in the future, you can make a lot of money just by leasing the port. .
However, every port construction requires a large amount of investment, especially if Yang Dongxu wants to build a deep-water port in one step, the investment will be even greater. At the same time, he still lacks talents in large-scale port construction. If he cooperates with the Bao family, he can undoubtedly get twice the result with half the effort.
It's a pity that he didn't catch up with the ship king when he was in good health and still managing the company, otherwise this matter would have been much easier to talk about.
"Did you offend the Bao family?" Fu Chaming came to the courtyard early the next day.
"What's wrong?" Yang Dongxu said vaguely with a bun stuffed in his mouth.
"What did you say? Do you know that the Bao family is very sensitive now?" Fu Chaming rolled his eyes, sat down opposite Yang Dongxu without any courtesy, took a fried dough stick and ate it.
"Ship King can't hold on anymore?" Yang Dongxu had a surprised look on his face.
"That's not enough, but after all, he is an old man in his seventies. When he was young, he left a lot of hidden injuries from working hard, so his health has been a little bad in recent years, so now the entire Bao family is very irritable. Don't mess with it if it's okay. They." Said Ship King Fu Chaming with a look of admiration on his face. This is a legendary Chinese existence.
Yang Dongxu can naturally understand the meaning of Fu Chaming's irritable words. The world's number one shipping king family, if a little bit of residue is revealed, it is enough for people to live and drink without worries for a lifetime.
In addition, the ship king has no son and has not yet designated a successor. In addition, the outside world is also eyeing this huge piece of fat.
Therefore, the people of the Bao family are not only irritable regarding their property, but also irritable towards some of the hostility shown by the outside world. If they really feel threatened, any shipping king who is in poor health may personally tear the other party into pieces. He must not let others take advantage of the industry he has worked for all his life.
"I didn't want to offend him. You probably know what happened."
"Bao Chengyu? That person is a bit troublesome. But don't go too far. After all, the identity of the ship king is a bit sensitive." Fu Chaming frowned.
As the third generation of rich people in Hong Kong, Fu Chaming and Bao Chengyu naturally know each other. However, Bao Chengyu used to develop abroad. In the past two years, the shipping king returned to Hong Kong due to poor health, so although the two knew each other, they still knew each other. Not familiar.
However, he had heard a little bit about Ship Wang's cousin. Ship Wang's family basically kept a low profile and rarely had any bad news. However, Bao Chengyu has caused a lot of troubles in the past two years since he returned to Hong Kong. Come on, it's just that many people didn't care because of the ship king's face.
"I must admire the Ship King, otherwise you think I would let that boy go. So I'm warning him, don't pester my sister if you have nothing to do." Yang Dongxu snorted.
But it would be a bit troublesome to have a conflict with this Bao Chengyu. After all, the relationship between the ship king and the senior management has always been very good, and he has made many contributions to the country over the years. If he had a conflict with Bao Chengyu, his great-nephew, he might get beaten up by several elders.
"He is the grandnephew of the shipping king. How dare I warn him." Fu Chaming curled his lips.
The wealthy family has a strong foundation in Hong Kong, but in real terms it can only be regarded as one of the top second-rate families. Although its status has increased a lot in the mainland and overseas in recent years, it is still a little far away from becoming a first-rate family.
The Bao family is not a first-class family, but a top wealthy family. There are people who can be ranked high in the world, let alone in Hong Kong.
But I really look down on this Bao Chengyu Fu Chaming. When I met him at several banquets before, I greeted him politely and never meant to have a close friendship with him.
"Then I hope he can be more at peace with himself." Facing the behemoth of the Ship Wang family, although Yang Dongxu was confident that he could live a good life without cooperating with the other party, he did not want to provoke the other party.
Can Bao Chengyu really be content?
Ever since he followed his father to live with the Bao family in Hong Kong as a child, the shipping king still loved his grandnephew very much. After all, he is considered the male member of the Bao family, so he can be said to have had a smooth life these years.
Especially in the past two years, his father took the position of manager in the Bao family enterprise, which made his life even more enriching. So when had he suffered such injustice since he was a child?
What's more important is that although he has played with many women over the years, he has never seen such a top-notch Xiang Zhouya. The moment he saw Zhou Ya, he felt that he had met the goddess of his life, so this woman must be taken. Down.
Thanks to Chun Tao Huakai mndh for the reward, thank you very much
