To put it bluntly, the reason why Mr. Huo speaks so positively is that he just wants to drag people into trouble. After all, although Mr. Huo has a high status in Hong Kong, because of his position, he has never been very popular with the British in Hong Kong, and he has become a benchmark. For a family to carry such a banner, for the Huo family It is also a tiring thing to say, so Mr. Huo always hopes that more people will stand with him. This will not only show that he is capable, but also attract more people to take risks. But other businessmen in Hong Kong are not fools. It¡¯s your business to treasure the treasure, so why do you have to take me with you? Just like this time Mr. Huo's attack on the juniors was unanimously recognized by everyone. To put it bluntly, wasn't it because the juniors represented them? Even the juniors are treated like this. Could it be that Mr. Huo can get rid of this situation because of his high status? Obviously that's not possible. Although Hong Kong businessmen are united, unity depends on the situation. Things like taking sides have never been united. If a loose group wants to have a clear leadership in politics, it will not work at all. Even after the handover, it will not work. Are there any strange people appearing? Not to mention that when the ownership of Hong Kong is still undecided, there are all kinds of thoughts. Even the idea of ??Hong Kong's independence is not without market. Don't think that the so-called independence of Hong Kong people thirty years later is an isolated incident. In fact, this has always happened, and a lot of them were killed by the British in the past. , and then no one made a fuss. After that, the mainland took over Hong Kong and used a gentle strategy, so this trend has risen again. Coupled with the development of the media, the fuss seems to have suddenly appeared. In fact, such things have always happened. , but no one knows. Among this group of big guys, everyone has their own ideas and no one likes who is represented by whom. That¡¯s why the Ship King hopes that the team going to the mainland this time will not have any political purpose. You have your own ideas and you can It is proposed unilaterally, but if such an idea is imposed on everyone, it will not be easy to handle. Everyone should do their own thing. Economically, everyone supports each other. It doesn't matter if you go to the mainland to make money. But politically, it's better to express your stance. Even if you don't express your stance, you can't represent anyone, and no one wants to be represented. The reason is that simple. , but regarding this matter, the big guys in the first circle discussed it for a lot of time before Li Mingbao and others came in, and in the end no one was able to convince anyone. In the end, political topics were ignored by everyone, intentionally or unintentionally. Then we come to the topic of economics. In this era, Hong Kong¡¯s economic ties with the mainland are actually not that close. They are naturally better than those in Taiwan, but they are still completely different from those two or three years ago. No comparison. ¡°These big shots are not like those small businessmen with a net worth of one to two million. Even if they can¡¯t stay in Hong Kong, it doesn¡¯t matter if they just live in the mainland. Their status cannot allow them to invest such a large amount of money in the mainland now. Only Li Mingbao has done it before, and no one else, not even Mr. Huo, has done it in the mainland like Li Mingbao. After doing this, the most he could do was to sail more ships into Shenzhen Bay and then play hide-and-seek with the British Hong Kong Coast Guard. When it comes to economic issues, many people are more or less looking at Li Mingbao. After all, among everyone sitting here, except for this guy Li Mingbao, he has no scruples in doing business with the mainland in a big way. , other people have no such experience at all. Maybe some of them secretly have huge cooperation projects with mainland China, but such projects are highly confidential even to their own families, let alone this group of people with different intentions. of Hong Kong businessmen. So now Li Mingbao can be regarded as the first person in Hong Kong to invest in the mainland. So the topic soon came to Li Mingbao. Boss Zheng, who had a rich look on his face, looked at Li Mingbao with a smile and said: "For us people, the person who does the best business with mainland China is Xiao Li." . I heard that Xiao Li¡¯s investment in mainland China is not a small amount. He also donated about 10 million US dollars before, right? This is not a small amount. Xiao Li should understand the mainland better than us old men. , so I hope you won¡¯t be stingy with your experience, Xiao Li.¡± Li Mingbao didn¡¯t feel any discomfort when he was targeted by a group of veterans. Anyway, after he heard these people discussing investing in the mainland, he knew that he didn¡¯t care. No matter what, he can't escape the discussed ending. Although Li Mingbao clearly knows that there are some old guys doing bigger business with the mainland than himself, but these things are still in the confidential stage. If Li Mingbao reveals these things, If you come out, not only will there be no benefit, but you will also receive a lot of malice. Even the mainland will be very dissatisfied with you. Li Mingbao couldn¡¯t find something uncomfortable for himself, so when Boss Zheng took the initiative to bring it up, Li Mingbao was very calm.? said: "When it comes to experience, in fact, my experience is not that good. When it comes to the Chinese business groups that have cooperated more with the mainland, we can only be regarded as juniors. As far as Singapore is concerned, with the mainland There are quite a lot of cooperation projects. With the relationship between the bosses, it is not difficult to learn from them. It is not the right thing to gain experience from me. Of course, if you are interested in listening, I don¡¯t care. Anyway, my investment in the mainland is just a small business for now, that is, a hotel chain business. This business is not my own. It can only be said to be a family business. I do it. , I just put some money into it. After the hotel makes money, the money will be given to me at home. In fact, I have not yet negotiated my own business. I am going to the mainland this time to take a look at this. Whether the mainland is allowed to do business or not, I will have no choice but to choose another direction. If it is allowed, I will continue to work on this project. Speaking of experience, I really don¡¯t have much experience, but I know one thing very well. The mainland is very industrialized. , especially the light industry, is not very developed now. Although it can basically meet the needs of the mainland, there is still a big gap. And the mainland is now engaged in reform and opening up, and ordinary people have begun to become rich. As a result, the demand for light industrial products in mainland China has actually begun to increase. Whether it is clothing or food trading, the benefits for your family will be very good for a long time in the future. I¡¯m not sure about the consumption of gold and silver jewelry. There is definitely demand, but the demand won¡¯t be too big. Of course, the demand, which won¡¯t be too big, refers to the entire continent. In some specific places, the consumption may not be low. If Mr. Zheng is interested, he can open a jewelry store in the capital. The purchasing power there should be good. " "There are people who can sell gold and silver jewelry in the mainland. Can you afford it?" Boss Zheng felt a little funny when he heard Li Mingbao's words. Seeing Boss Zheng's appearance, Li Mingbao also smiled: "Boss Zheng, if you have this attitude, then as long as you open a store in the mainland and design it with a standard that is no lower than that of Hong Kong, the consumption power there will be It will definitely surprise you. You know, there are one billion people in the mainland, and even if one in ten million people can afford your jewelry, there will be a hundred potential customers. Not to mention your company. Your products are not really top-notch luxury goods. The number of people who can afford them is definitely not a small number. Maybe even in the capital, there can be at least tens of thousands of people who can afford your products. This is still a high-end product. , low-end products can be afforded by people with a little money, so your doubts, Boss Zheng, are really unnecessary. The mainland may be short of everything else, but there is definitely no shortage of consumers. " Li Mingbao really knows the people on the mainland very well. The number of people who give birth to local tycoons is larger than the total population of other countries. In such a place, there is no need to worry about the lack of consumers. The mainland is not black Africa, even if it is. In black Africa, the chiefs of those tribes are also wealthy. With so many people on the mainland, the consumer base can basically be said to be endless. No company dares to boast that it can cover all the consumption power of the mainland in a certain industry. Yes, for a company like that, there is no other way except to survive. "I can guarantee this. Buying gold and silver jewelry in the mainland is not a particularly bizarre thing. If you, Boss Zheng, are interested, you can definitely make a profit by opening some stores there. Compared to Hong Kong, It will be easier to open a store at the same time, and the profit will be much higher." Mr. Huo also interjected at this time. Boss Zheng doesn't have to believe Li Mingbao's words, but Mr. Huo has already spoken. Boss Zheng has to believe it even if he doesn't believe it. Although Mr. Huo's position is very unreliable, Mr. Huo will never cheat him on such a matter. Otherwise, Mr. Huo's sign will be smashed. That would not do any good to Mr. Huo. With Boss Zheng being the first to speak, he seemed to be a lot more relaxed in the following time. Many people began to ask Li Mingbao where his family's business was in mainland China and whether he had done anything about it. Li Mingbao took the trouble to do so. But Li Mingbao had to speak up about such things. After all, if others can ask you, they think highly of you. If you ignore it, you will offend others. After going around to ask people, Li Mingbao discovered that the industrial level in Hong Kong is actually not that high. No matter what industry it is, the gap between Hong Kong and the mainland is not a generational difference, at most That is to say, the gap between vision and international perspective is actually the same in terms of labor efficiency, especially those in garment factories. In Hong Kong, you can make hard money. Even those clothes with higher selling prices are actually He didn't make much money in business, and even when Li Mingbao was chatting with a big boss who owned a garment factory, he heardWhen the big boss said that his garment factory didn't even have an assembly line, Li Mingbao understood why the level of light industry in Hong Kong was, to put it bluntly, just like that.
