Chapter 124 Capital is the driving force that drives the advancement of science and technology

Take Kayla and first visited Chuck, the manager of HSBC's London branch.

Sundus has been arranged long ago, and only needs Wu Guangyao to visit him.

At that time, I have taken a fancy to the freighter, and the follow-up payment problem will be handed over to Chuck.

Next, Wu Guangyao went to the shipping company linked by HSBC and met Douglas, the owner of the shipping company.

"Mr. Wu, you are here really at the right time. If you come early, I am really afraid that the depreciation of the pound that just happened will affect the interests of our company!" Douglas said.

"Does your contract also have this loophole?" Wu Guangyao was surprised.

"Well! Many companies have this problem. The English businessmen have lost a lot of money in this currency devaluation!" Douglas's voice was slightly low.

"It's just a temporary pain. In the long run, currency devaluation also brings many opportunities, and export trade is more competitive!" Wu Guangyao explained.

Douglas nodded helplessly when he heard it.

Next, Wu Guangyao and his entourage went to the wharf to see the two 10,000-ton second-hand oil tankers, and asked the accompanying ship repairers to carefully check everything on board.

Sure enough, there are people in the DPRK who are easy to handle. With the relationship with HSBC, the shipping company here did not cheat itself.

Besides, I’m not a newbie to shipping, and it’s hard for ordinary people to fool myself.

Wu Guangyao has never forgotten to study no matter what his career is.

As a boss, Wu Guangyao is often more proficient in this industry than his employees!

The total load of the two freighters is as high as 30,000 tons, and the price is 1.2 million US dollars.

This time, Wu Guangyao proposed that the shipping company should send him 500 oil drums, but Grand Grass agreed. This does not cost much, and it is just an extra!

Wu Guangyao thinks that these oil barrels will be sold to the mainland in the future, and it will help Zhao Xi to become a red-top businessman, which will also help his own path in the future.

Why not yourself?

Wu Guangyao, of course, must protect himself, otherwise, where will the funds come from in the future, benefit more Chinese people.

Oil barrels and western medicine were the war of the DPRK, and they were relatively scarce materials. At that time, many tanks and airplanes became a pile of scrap iron because of the lack of oil.

Many cute people who were injured died because they didn’t have medicine!

Now that I know the history, I have stocked up a large amount of western medicine, and then handed it to the Huo family, He family, Zhao Xi and others, and traded it to the mainland. Of course, I have to do such a simple thing.

Don’t be famous, just ask for a clear conscience!

So before the blockade, Wu Guangyao plans to invest in advance to collect these materials abroad, store them, and then go to the mainland in exchange for gold.

It’s not free. If you are really free, others still doubt your motives!

As long as you don’t sell fake medicines and don’t make a high price difference, I believe you can reap a friendship!

The negotiation is complete. The next day, the three parties signed the contract in the conference room.

Kayla’s role finally came in handy, and pointed out two unfavorable terms for global shipping.

That night, Wu Guangyao invited Kayla to dinner.

In the restaurant, there are violin performers playing this Scottish music, a kind of leisure filling the whole restaurant.

Bright lights, bright red wine, simple food, and male waiters in Scottish skirts!

Kayla is a little embarrassed, her boss has a wife, but why do she want to date herself?

Could it be

"You seem to think a lot?" Wu Guangyao said playfully. As a later generation and Kayla's boss, he naturally has enough strength to master the rhythm.

"No" Kayla no longer has the style of a lawyer at this time, but like a little girl, said evasively.

"That's good, we have another hard bone to chew next, you have to nurture your spirit!"

After listening to Wu Guangyao’s words, Kayla said sternly: "I have always maintained sufficient energy, boss, you can rest assured!"

In fact, Wu Guangyao didn't have much thoughts about Kayla. He was just bored alone in London. He happened to have an appointment with a beautiful woman to pass the time together.

"I want to hear, boss, your entrepreneurial story?" Kayla asked curiously.

Since someone is willing to listen, Wu Guangyao is of course willing to speak.

Who has no vanity, let alone in front of a beautiful woman!

Wu Guangyao talked from Lao Fengxiang to Uniqlo, then to PG zipper, and finally to global shipping, which magnified his personal abilities infinitely.

Take full consideration of your grievances, and talk about courage and strategy!

Kayla really believed it, and said with a look of admiration: "Boss, you are a business wizard!"

"In fact, there is nothing. I have done a little bit of achievement in a peaceful place. I have not changed society, and there is nothing to be proud of! I just like challenges. I am not reconciled to ordinary people!"

"Then which industry is your most satisfied?"

"The next industry!"

Kayla gave Wu Guangyao a white look, obviously dissatisfied with Wu Guangyao's pretense answer!

"Do you plan to enter another industry?" Kayla asked curiously. How could this young man have such good energy?

"My dream is to change the world and make this world a better place! Therefore, I will enter the business of science and technology to facilitate mankind and change the way of life of mankind! You should know that in 1947, Bell Labs invented the'transistor'. It is a very great invention! When I heard this news, I concluded that the world will be changed by semiconductors! Therefore, I intend to carry forward the transistor and apply it to all aspects of human beings, such as radios and televisions."

At this time, Wu Guangyao, regardless of the eyes of others, talked about his own ideals and ambitions.

"However, Hong Kong Island has no talents and lack of test equipment. How can you guarantee success?" Kayla calmly analyzed.

Wu Guangyao is very dissatisfied with Kayla’s interruption of her words. It is rare to find someone to confide in her ideals and ambitions. It is a shame to be suspected by her.

"Capital is the driving force that drives the advancement of science and technology. As long as you have the capital, there are a lot of talents who are willing to shed blood for you! I can establish laboratories and factories in Europe and the United States, and can also produce on Hong Kong Island, and even train myself. Talent! Just like PG zipper, when I proposed to improve the machinery, how many people were optimistic about it, but I succeeded in doing it! So, young people, don’t just fail!"

Wu Guangyao looked like he hated iron but couldn’t make steel, and he almost flickered Kayla!

"No, boss, you seem to be much younger than me, why are you so old-fashioned. Strictly speaking, it is not working time, you should call my sister!" Kayla finally caught Wu Guangyao's weakness and ran against him.

"Call you a sister, deduct half of your salary, let you choose?" Wu Guangyao said playfully.

"No, boss, I was wrong!"

The interaction between the two in the restaurant frequently ushered in the strange eyes of Londoners.

A beautiful white woman, why is so close to a yellow race? This makes everyone think about riding sister!

The next day, Wu Guangyao and his party took off from London and came to Burke Machinery in Germany.

Henry warmly entertained Wu Guangyao, apparently thinking that Wu Guangyao had come to order a lot of machinery again.

Burke Machinery’s main business is the production of looms, but the sales of looms are not good.

Instead, it made a lot of profits on the automatic zipper machine.

But PG zipper's new automatic zipper machine is a patented product. At the same time, it has signed an exclusive production contract. Burke Machinery has no right to produce it and sell it.

"Wu, I am so happy to see you again!" Henry said.

Wu Guangyao naturally knew what Henry was thinking. Before deciding to invest in shares, London employees came to investigate Burke Machinery, and the details were almost complete.

Obviously, Burke Machinery does not belong to a promising machinery company, and the loom produced by it was hoisted by the American Machinery Company.

At the same time, because many countries have been invaded by Germany, they have a kind of dislike for Burke Machinery.

Only businessmen from small Asian countries would consider Burke’s products.

"I am also very happy to meet you, my partner!" Wu Guangyao pointedly said.

The two parties came to the reception room and the atmosphere was very friendly!

Naturally, Wu Guangyao should take advantage of the good atmosphere and express his thoughts!

"Mr. Henry, as the world zipper market has exploded year by year, small zippers also have unlimited potential. I roughly calculated that in the next 10 years, I will probably need tens of thousands of various machines. For such a scale of purchase, I might as well build a machinery factory by myself. No matter how much I invest, I am not afraid that the cost will not be recovered!"

Wu Guangyao’s words are not bragging. According to statistics from later generations, YKK at its peak had 30,000 machines of all kinds.

And these machines are produced by Yoshida Kogyo, which Tadao Yoshida himself invested.

But in this world, because of Wu Guangyao's appearance, Tadao Yoshida's YKK zipper major shareholder changed people.

Many zipper machines are specialized in producing certain types of zippers, so there are many varieties of automatic zipper machines.

Of course, there are not so many tricks at present, but this is the trend in the future, and Wu Guangyao must also need to develop in this way.

The argument of tens of thousands of machines shocked both parties in the entire room.

Henry was a little anxious, and quickly said: "Our Burke Machinery and your PG zipper are very happy to cooperate. The follow-up price can be discussed, and Mr. Wu will continue to consider our company! For this reason, we are willing to establish a research and development project team for you The company specializes in researching and developing products!"

Wu Guangyao still shook his head, smiling at Henry.

Hen Rui felt a little bit in his heart. Could it be that this time this time the price was too expensive, he came to scold him?

"The price can go down again, we can continue to talk!"

Wu Guangyao knows that it’s time to talk about business, and I can see that Burke Machinery’s life is not easy!

"The tens of thousands of machines in ten years I said are not an imaginary number, but there are really such a large quantity. For example, automatic zipper machines should be divided into many varieties, and the products produced have different uses. There are also automatic Punching machines, surface grinders, automatic conveyors, automatic tape cutting machines, etc.

Our company invests 800,000 US dollars every year to carry out various research and development. It can be said that it is not without the technical level of machinery. "

Henry heard it, but still didn’t know what medicine Wu Guangyao sold, but he still admired the people in front of him. The small zipper industry made him a world-class enterprise.

"Mr. Wu, please tell me what you want, and I will seriously consider it!"

"I want to invest in your company. I have found someone to investigate your company. The main business looms are not doing well. It is better to turn the main business into a sideline in the future and produce various machinery for our PG zippers."

So, Henry thought in his heart that he should have understood it a long time ago. This person said so much, didn’t he just want to invest in his own company?

"How many shares do you want?"

Hearing that Henry did not refuse, Wu Guangyao felt at ease. He was afraid of the smelly and hard stone, and he didn’t know how to work it out!

"I value your machinery factory at 1 million US dollars, and I will invest 300,000 US dollars, which will account for 30% of the shares."

"make a deal!"

Wu Guangyao was taken aback, when I finished speaking, what are you doing in such a hurry!

Seeing Wu Guangyao stunned, Henry smiled and said happily: "Mr. Wu, why are you surprised? Your valuation of our company is fair. Besides, you hold such a large order, why should I consider it?"

Wu Guangyao is relieved, apparently Burke Machinery is more sad than he thought!

I have lost this business by myself!

But it doesn’t matter. With my own 300,000 US dollars, I have a way to get them to invest in the new factory.
