Chapter 112 Be the ‘Sea Coachman’!

On the morning of April 25, many people gathered at a pier in Victoria Harbour, watching the sea.

These people are closely related to Wu Guangyao. They have family members, friends, subordinates, and business partners. They all look at the sea with excitement.

Wu Guangyao got the news early that the two liners he bought in the United States this morning will arrive in Victoria Port.

Family and friends are notified one by one, and those who are willing to visit are welcome!

When Wu Guangyao saw his two liners sailing slowly into Victoria Harbour, he couldn’t help shouting: “Look, that’s my two liners!”

The people on the shore cheered together, excited and envy!

They soon discovered that the two liners looked very new and beautiful, not at all like a new ship that had just been out of the factory after 10 years of wind and rain.

Obviously, Fisher, the owner of the shipping company, attaches great importance to Wu Guangyao, a business partner, and has carefully helped the two liners to refurbish and repair.

In Fisher's eyes, Wu Guangyao not only helped himself to point his mind, but he was also an important customer in the future.

He believed that Wu Guangyao would never satisfy the two ships, and Wu Guangyao would definitely fight for the right to hegemony on the sea.

The   liner docked at the pier and handed over with the captain of the ship. Wu Guangyao took the group to the deck for a tour.

Zhou Xuefen looked at her smug son, occasionally chatted with friends a few words, and occasionally faced the endless sea, as if adding a bit of pride.

Is this still the son I know?

Too much has changed. After coming to Hong Kong Island for a month, I more and more discovered that my son is far from before.

The previous son was not worth mentioning in front of his elder brother, and was despised by the family and his father, and he was ashamed of him!

The current son, even the manager of a foreigner, was greeted with a smile.

I really want to tell the family about all this, but it’s a pity that my son let himself and stop contacting those people!

Wu Guangyao is surrounded by two foreigners, one is the manager of the loan department, William, and the other is Sundars, who is expected to succeed William.

Since HSBC has invested so much, how could it not pay attention to global shipping, even if it is the future financial affairs of global shipping, they will have to carefully review before they decide to continue cooperation.

Lin Yueru quietly walked to her husband and asked curiously: "Msang Gong, have these two ships been named?"

"It's called Dong." Wu Guangyao originally wanted to call Dongfang No. 1 and No. 2, but after thinking about it, this would cause unnecessary trouble. It's better to call it more popular.

What is    called?

Wu Guangyao carefully looked at the two liners. At this time, unfortunately, the morning sun shone on the two liners, just like putting a layer of gold veil on the liner.

There is it!

Wu Guangyao got the enlightenment, suddenly came inspiration, blurted out: "It's called Jinan, Jinping!"

"Okay! The name Guangyao is good.'Gold' means wealth is coming in;'An' and'Ping' mean that as long as we sail, people and goods will be safe and secure." Father-in-law Lin Youde nodded and explained the kindness to everyone on board. road.

Hearing the evaluation of his father-in-law Lin Youde, Wu Guangyao was also proud of his talent, and decided that all his ships in the future would begin with the word'gold'.

In order to facilitate international business development, Wu Guangyao also plans to give his liner an English name.

GoldAold, GoldBala, the first word is Gold, which means gold; then the next word is named in the order of 26 letters in English.

To sum up, it is Gold+26 words starting with letters, until you have more than 26 ships, you can change to another name!

Regarding the planning of shipping business, Wu Guangyao intends to be conservative in management in advance and lease it to Dongying Freight Company.

There are several important points in the later stage. As long as you grasp it well, you will definitely become the ship king, surpassing the existence of the ship king.

The employees on the ship here began to organize the evacuation of the goods. Fisher is not stupid. He helped Wu Guangyao get home, so he naturally had to pick up something along the way.

No, I leased it to a trading company to transport a batch of goods.

He Yuanzhang took the company’s captain, chief engineer, chief mate and others to check and accept the liner.

You have to receive the training of the sailors immediately before the shipping company’s responsibilities are completed.

In the evening, Wu Guangyao generously arranged the important personnel of the shipping company to the Peninsula Hotel, and held a dinner for all the personnel at the same time.

The purpose of    is obvious. It is to teach these people more advanced navigation knowledge in this half month.

Wu Guangyao arranged for He Yuanzhang to do it well.

Of course, the most important thing is to learn these techniques and organize them into a book.

"You have made arrangements for the delay, so go to Dongying, find the freight company, hand in the information of our ship, and rent it to them!" Wu Guangyao said.

He Yuanzhang did not understand that Wu Guangyao had always thought that his own company would transport goods to the shipping company's plan!

"Boss, do you mean leasing to Dongying's customers? Is it a long-term contract or a short-term contract?" He Yuanzhang said with a question mark on his face, and said carefully.

Wu Guangyao knew that it was time for a showdown, and he could not let his generals know nothing about the future operations of the Global Shipping Company.

Furthermore, with He Yuanzhang’s hundreds of thousands of funds and no connections with Hong Kong Island, even if he left, he would not be his opponent.

Wu Guangyao carefully passed on the plan to He Yuanzhang, and He Yuanzhang's eyes lit up.

After a long time, He Yuanzhang said with emotion: "It turns out that our shipping industry on Hong Kong Island has such an advantage; and the policy of Dongying has just allowed our shipping industry on Hong Kong Island to flourish."

In fact, Wu Guangyao still knows a future trend, that is, Dongying shipbuilding industry caught up with Europe and the United States in the late 1950s.

As long as you have a good relationship with Dongying Shipbuilding Company before.

In the future, I will have a very cheap freighter, but the quality is the same as that of Europe and America, which is extremely important to me.

This concubine Dongying, married herself!

"Well, the period of our lease contract can be one to two years in advance. I plan to use the lease fee, and then take a loan from HSBC to continue buying freighters!" Wu Guangyao added.

Before 1955, Wu Guangyao planned to implement medium and long-term lease contracts;

After 1955, he implemented short-term contracts to obtain several times the profits in the Second Middle East War (also known as the Suez Canal War).

During the Suez Canal War, the President of Egypt announced that it would take back the Suez Canal in the hands of Britain and France, and sent troops to occupy both ends of the canal. Ships from countries other than its friendly countries were not allowed to use the canal.

The decision of the President of Egypt required most ships in the world to go to and from Europe and Asia to bypass the Cape of Good Hope at the southern tip of Africa.

As the distance increases, the freight rate has naturally increased several times, and the demand for ships has also become tense.

As long as he seizes that opportunity, Wu Guangyao believes that he can expand global shipping several times.

Be yourself the ‘Sea Coachman’!
