Chapter 242 [Kwai Chung Container Terminal] (Ask a monthly pass!)

Wu Guangyao returned to Hong Kong Island alone, and Lin Yueru returned to Hong Kong Island early.

This time, Wu Guangyao boarded his own flight. All the flight attendants looked at themselves with a fanatical expression, which made Wu Guangyao a little confused!

recruited the flight attendant and asked, “I feel that everyone’s eyes are a little weird when they look at me. What’s the matter?”

The flight attendant was a white man, half kneeling in front of Wu Guangyao, very tempting.

"They have discussed your stalwart deeds in Dongying privately, and they may have a little admiration for you!"

"That's it! I thought something happened! Well, I know, you go down!" Wu Guangyao finally understood the situation, thinking about sending the seduced flight attendant away quickly, and it looked like a crime.

"I admire you too!" Not only did the flight attendant not leave, but instead leaned forward a bit.

Wu Guangyao looked at this situation, but he didn’t understand it;

This beautiful woman can ride at any time by herself!

Unfortunately, if you do some things, you have to pay the price, so bear with it!

"Go ahead, travelers should have opinions!"

The flight attendant's face turned red, and his bold confession was actually ignored by the boss. I was really ashamed!

Wu Guangyao returned to Hong Kong Island. His first stop was the Governor's Mansion, where he met with Governor Ge Lianghong.

"Mr. Wu, your so-called container shipping concept is only in its infancy in the United States and has not yet developed; how can you be sure that it will succeed on Hong Kong Island?" Ge Lianghong asked curiously.

When Wu Guangyao met the prime minister in Dongying, Ge Lianghong naturally knew that this Chinese was growing too fast;

London, he has been knighted;

Such a character, London has long been wooing!

However, the concept of container shipping advocated by the Chinese businessman said that the future port operation method is the world of containers (containers). Ge Lianghong is obviously skeptical.

Seeing that Ge Lianghong’s attitude was not clear, Wu Guangyao sorted out his lines and said: “The current port model is that goods are loaded in sacks, barrels, and wooden boxes, and dozens of dock workers crowded on or below the deck. In a narrow space, such time-consuming should obviously be eliminated."

"Containers can not only protect the products, but also when the ship is docked at the port, the truck chassis and truck can directly pull them away without repackaging."

"The most important thing is that because of the standard shape of the container, the cargo ship can carry several times more cargo, which will greatly reduce the freight."

Wu Guangyao’s efforts finally achieved results, or Governor Ge Lianghong noticed the news from Dongying at the beginning, and finally approved a very large piece of land for Wu Guangyao—the lot from Kwai Chung No. 1 to Kwai Chung No. 3 Container Terminal.

This makes Wu Guangyao overjoyed!

Although there are nine container terminals in the Kwai Chung area of ​​later generations, no company can monopolize three container terminals yet!

There are nine container terminals in Kwai Chung in later generations, and there are even a few large companies operating one terminal.

For container shipping, Wu Guangyao attaches great importance to it and believes that this is more important than planning the Jeddah Agreement.

Successful, it will bring countless reputation and money to global shipping!

For this plan, Wu Guangyao asked Global Shipping to raise US$10 million (the main loan) and allocate it to the subsidiary Global Terminal Management Company.

In order to achieve the effect of sea transportation, Global Shipping has added more than a dozen subsidiaries, such as truck management companies, container production companies, warehouse management companies, logistics companies, and so on.

In short, the entire project can only be operated by one group company, so that one-stop container service can be achieved!

A vigorous shipping revolution was born in the hands of Wu Guangyao.

Cargo ship modification, terminal construction, container design, crane hanger system, truck freight system, central control and command system, etc., are all going on at the same time.

The United States, Europe, and East Asia have many cooperative companies. Hong Kong Island also hires experts from all over the world to participate in this project.

In July, the hot summer, people miss the days of future generations in the air-conditioned room very much, but this idea was quickly swept away by Wu Guangyao;

That kind of day is not worthy of me, only the noon on the day of hoeing, the day when sweat drips down the soil, is my home.

Wu Guangyao wearing a safety helmet, led by Li Ming, President of Global Terminals, came to Kwai Chung Container Terminal.

Kwai Chung Container Terminal is divided into three phases of construction projects, namely Pier 1, 2, 3, with a total area of ​​1,600 acres, which belongs to the wholly-owned construction and operation of Global Shipping.

The ability of Global Shipping to successfully win the Kwai Chung Container Terminal has the intention of the British Hong Kong government/London to win over Wu Guangyao, as well as the strong support of HSBC;

After all, HSBC has a 22% stake in Global Shipping, so why not fully support it?

Currently, Hong Kong Island Construction is working hard to construct the Kwai Chung Container Terminal No. 1, but the ground on the No. 2 and No. 3 terminals has not been broken.

Universal Terminals has concentrated all its energy and will complete the construction of Pier No. 1 in the summer of 1955.

"How about it, I think you have been very hard for the past six months, and tell me about my feelings!" When the wharf circled around, the workers were busy, and there seemed to be nothing to visit. Wu Guangyao visited his capable personnel.

When Li Ming heard it, his dark skin showed two rows of yellow teeth, and he seemed to be an addict.

Li Ming said with a smile: "It is not so much hard work, but I see it as an achievement. It is my honor and honor to be able to participate in such a great project. I rest tiredly every night. Go down, get up again in the morning full of motivation, I think this is probably the charm of this project!"

"Well said, career is the spiritual pillar of a man! But if you run all over the world this year, your wife won't complain!"

"She dares, men work hard outside, and she dare to complain, it's okay!"

Wu Guangyao is forced, feelings, this woman is better than himself!

Early September, Dongying, Tokyo.

Walking into Lenovo Radio Factory (formerly Qiaoxing Radio Factory), Wu Guangyao's feeling is that the changes are really big!

Every employee has a sense of urgency, because the Lenovo Radio Factory is producing a modern product, and everyone is striving for every minute and every second.

Walking into the workshop that has doubled, more than 800 workers are busy, seeing Wu Guangyao and Matsumoto Ichiro walking in, no one pays attention to them, they are working attentively.

"Chairman, there are 800 workers in total. 600 workers are working overtime to produce the new model-transistor radio TR-66. The remaining two hundred are still producing tube radios." Matsumoto Ichiro introduced to Wu Guangyao.

"Give me a TR-66 radio!"

"Hi!"

This is a radio that weighs only 500 grams, with a height of 15 cm, a width of 10 cm, and a thickness of only 3 cm. It is very convenient to carry and can fit in many pockets of clothes.

TR-66 contains 4 germanium transistors. Germanium is a semiconductor material; metals such as gold, silver, copper, iron, etc., have good electrical conductivity and are called conductors. Wood, glass, ceramics, mica, etc. are not easy to conduct electricity and are called insulators. A substance whose conductivity is between a conductor and an insulator is called a semiconductor.

Transistors are made of semiconductor materials, the most common of which are germanium and silicon.

Because the four germanium transistors inside occupy a small volume, and because the transistors consume less power, the inside is no longer like a tube radio. There are many tubes and batteries, so it can be small, light and easy to carry.

"Has the cost been calculated yet?" Wu Guangyao said with some expectation. Dongying's production cost is definitely lower than that of the United States, so Wu Guangyao hopes to have a good cost so that he can make more money.

"between US$20 and US$24, because it is now in mass production, so no statistics are available yet!"

Wu Guangyao was stunned, because he knew that after a while, the American manufacturer would sell each one for $50.

In this case, even if you sell 40 dollars, you have an absolute advantage; then you can make about 15 dollars on this one, and the profit is as high as 35%!

You have to know that there is a phenomenon in the Dongying electrical industry, that is, the profit of electrical appliances is generally 6% to 10%, in order to compete with American products.

If you say that if you can make a 35% profit, wouldn’t it make these people envy and hate?

Of course, this thing is easy to imitate. Dongying’s six major electrical companies can be built in three months at most, and the price will inevitably be reduced.

It seems that I have to spend three months to turn on my Lenovo radio.

"Our price is set at 39.98 US dollars each!"

"Will it be a bit taller!"

Matsumoto Ichiro’s heart was almost furious at this time, the boss is too dark!

Wu Guangyao looked at Matsumoto Ichiro, his expression was in full view, and naturally he had to think about it!

"I ask you, is knowledge worth money?"

"Very valuable!"

"Then the first transistor radio has changed the bulky image of the original radio, so that it can make people listen to it. Isn’t it knowledge?"

"Hi, thank you for your education!"

"Well, you have to remember that our Lenovo TR-66 is geared towards high-end customers in Europe, America and East Asia. The products sell high-tech, quality and life! So, I'm teaching you how to promote it. Organized A special advertising campaign. That is, let all young employees carry TR-66 on their way to work every day, deliberately amplify the volume on the tram, make a sign of intoxication, and hire students in the pedestrian area that is not allowed to pass through the downtown area of ​​Tokyo. , Wearing a TR-66 swagger across the market. People wearing roller skates with TR-66, sliding down the street; free TR-66 to famous singers and foreign music groups coming to Japan to perform"

"Hey, the president is the most publicized businessman in the world. I will implement these methods in the United States, Europe, and East Asia, and strive to open the market quickly."

On September 10th, Lenovo’s TR-66 radio was first released in Dongying, which caused a huge industry sensation. Six major electrical appliance manufacturers began to buy back samples to prepare for R&D and manufacturing.

On September 20th, Lenovo TR-66 radios were sold in major cities in the United States. Lenovo Group shouted the slogan of ‘walkman’!

On September 25th, Lenovo’s TR-66 radio was sold in Europe, Britain, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy and other countries.

The sales price of Lenovo TR-66 radio is divided into two types: US$45 in Europe and US, and US$35 in Dongying. It comes with a set, but it costs US$3 to purchase;

The living standards in Europe, America and Dongying are different, and the prices are a little bit different.

Wu Guangyao, based on the historical United States’ annual sales volume of 15,000 units, calculated that the global sales volume should be 30,000 units a year, so the monthly output of the Qiaoxing plant is expected to be around 3,000 units of TR-66.

Thanks to Wu Guangyao's preparation, otherwise the TR-66 may be out of stock.

The success of Lenovo’s TR-66 announced in Dongying that Lenovo Electric will most likely become Dongying’s seventh giant, Dongying people reported this way.

Wu Guangyao saw this news and did not feel anything abnormal. After all, except for the major shareholder of Lenovo, who is not Dongying, the rest are basically Dongying.

Wu Guangyao also intends to use Dongying as a springboard, and then establish a world-wide electrical company!

As for Dongying people like self-heeling, let yourself be self-heeling!

Wu Guangyao's grievance is still acceptable. When he is later to share the profits that should belong to them, he should laugh!
