Chapter 245 [City within City Project! 】

At the beginning of 1955, Cheung Kong Industrial.

Li Xing was originally in the project department of a new building in Cheung Kong, but Wu Guangyao called him to his office.

Looking at the mud on his feet, scattered in the boss's office, it is very eye-catching, Li Xing is so embarrassed!

Naturally, Wu Guangyao won’t care, just ask someone to clean it later.

"A few months before the project is completed?" Wu Guangyao asked.

"It is estimated that it will take 5 months. Boss, is it going to start a new project?" Li Xing saw Wu Guangyao's rare inquiries about the progress of the project, and boldly guessed.

Currently, the third real estate under development by Cheung Kong Industrial has already developed Lanwan Villa and Shengshi Hua Ting;

You must know that Cheung Kong Industrial has been established for five years before developing three real estates, and even two real estates are joint ventures with others. It is not low-key!

"I plan to develop the three sites in Yau Tsim Mong one by one; but instead of building a five-story building, but building a 16-story residential building." Wu Guangyao said, the reason for building 16 floors is naturally because of Kowloon. There is an airport in the area, so the height must be limited, and I am afraid that it will allow about 16 to 18 floors.

Li Xing heard Wu Guangyao say that he would build a 16-story building, then stood up abruptly, and said incredulously, “Is the Hong Kong government going to revise the regulations?”

"Internal news, I don’t know, it’s unreliable, don’t say anything!" Wu Guangyao emphasized that it is estimated that there will be about a month before the revision of the house construction regulations. Wu Guangyao intends to design the drawings in advance and contact the American Construction Company, which can save time. Next time.

"Well, I will keep it secret!" Li Xing nodded. As a Hong Kong celebrity, it is not surprising that the boss knows some inside information, but he must not disclose it, so as not to affect the boss.

Next, Wu Guangyao and Li Xing talked about their specific plan: a piece of land is about 150,000 square feet, which is 25 acres of land. Build 25 16-storey residential buildings on a piece of land, with 4 households on each floor ranging from 600 square feet to 1,200 square feet. There are a total of 1,600 residential units in the community, which can accommodate 10,000 people.

The entire community also includes rest gardens, complete shopping malls, banks, restaurants, tea shops, grocery stores, cake shops, pharmacies, clinics, tailor shops, etc. All living needs. The community is also equipped with 2 kindergartens and 2 primary and secondary schools to solve the community’s problems. Children’s schooling issues form a "city within a city".

"Hong Kong Island First Construction has no experience in building high-rise buildings, and the equipment is insufficient, and the management personnel are not professional. Boss, this is a big problem!" Li Xing said worriedly, but had to admire the boss's atmosphere.

"So, I am going to ask you and Chen Cheng to go to the United States to find a design company and construction company in the United States, and let them send their studios to Hong Kong Island, not only to guide us, but also to teach us. We will pay some tuition, It’s no big deal! As for the equipment, I’m going to make a big purchase this time. Anyway, it needs a lot of use in the past few years, so I can’t lose it."

Li Xing walked out of Wu Guangyao’s office excitedly, his face was like chicken blood, making Cheung Kong employees speculate that this is a promotion to vice president?

As the end of the year approaches, Wu Guangyao is getting busy. After all, the one-year summary meeting is about to begin again, and the annual financial statements of each company should be delivered to their own hands.

East China’s Lenovo Electric and the European Metro chain retailer will send reports to Hong Kong Island for their own review.

Wu Guangyao came to the Oriental newspaper, and the staff greeted him one after another. Wu Guangyao nodded in response, and then came to his office.

As soon as Wu Guangyao sat down for a minute, a familiar male office worker took a strange young female employee, and the female employee was holding a water bottle in her hand.

"Boss, this is the new employee Gao Yue. Will I also work as a part-time clerk in your office in the future?"

"Well, I see. Xiao Li, have you been promoted?"

"Yes, Mr. Shen intends to transfer me to work in Taiwan!"

Wu Guangyao nodded, and said nothing more. The office has always been a shortcut for promotion and it is easy to get promoted;

Of course, it is also related to their cultural level.

After looking at Gao Yue for a few moments, he found that his appearance was not particularly prominent. Wu Guangyao was disappointed with a little relief, and his heart was a bit complicated; as a later generation, he had heard the legend of the secretary a long time ago, and said that he had no idea, and he was definitely not a man. ; However, Wu Guangyao didn't want to be too addicted to this way, so seeing Gao Yue's face was a bit more relaxed.

Although Wu Guangyao does not have a full-time secretary, Wu Guangyao also has a part-time secretary service when he arrives in the office. It is their job to serve tea and water, deliver documents, and order errands.

It is very rare to arrange a female staff for myself this time. After all, there are still very few women in this era who have received higher education!

As for why Wu Guangyao knew that Gao Yue had a higher education, it was because he was very confident, and Yang Kang would never arrange himself a part-time secretary with no culture.

Wu Guangyao likes to reuse people with diplomas, and he has a small reputation on Hong Kong Island, and his confidants have no reason to understand!

Unfortunately, Gao Yue looks a little different, so Wu Guangyao has less expectations.

When Wu Guangyao saw Lin Yueru, he made up his mind to marry her!

Looks beautifully, has a good family background, and it can be seen that people with Western-style higher education are basically rare.

"Gao Yue, where are you from, and what is your education level?" Wu Guangyao asked casually.

"Boss, I am from Shaoxing, Zhejiang and graduated from Hong Kong Island University." Gao Yue replied quickly.

"Well, yes, we are still fellow! It is not easy for girls to receive such a high education, so you have to work hard, and you may be able to rise to the top in the future and become a strong woman in the newspaper industry. Next door is the head of Sing Tao Daily. , Isn't it a woman!"

Wu Guangyao’s words made Gao Yue very excited. The boss really likes people with diplomas, like those in the legend.

"Yes, I will work hard!" Gao Yue said vowedly.

After a while, Shen Baoxing and Yang Kang came to Wu Guangyao's office and reported the situation.

"Oriental Daily" has developed rapidly overseas this year, and its sales in Sing Tao, Taiwan Island, Thailand, Malaysia and other places have grown rapidly, and it has a tendency to become the number one newspaper in China.

The reason is that Dongfang Newspaper has put a lot of effort in commercial content. Many business leaders are willing to accept interviews by Dongfang Newspaper, and Wu Guangyao's face is more or less important;

There is also the Oriental News Agency, which invested a lot of money to establish a news agency, and equipped with many telex printers, to grab news the fastest, so that people can read the latest news. In this regard, no Chinese newspaper has ever compared it.

"How is the situation with Ming Pao?"

"Well, it is very good, and the development is very fast. With the series of novels by Liang Yusheng and Jin Yong, Ming Pao is very popular in Asia."

Wu Guangyao little bit, and then asked about the publishing house.

Oriental newspapers are already on the way to the media, so the newspapers are naturally indispensable!

Seeing that the development of Oriental News is very stable, Wu Guangyao decided to give Yang Kang and Shen Baoxing more tasks.

"I think you are a bit idle lately, and I plan to add some tasks to you!" Wu Guangyao said to his two generals with a cunning face on his face.

Shen Baoxing and Yang Kang heard that the boss was saying that they were lazy, and they all protested;

Shen Baoxing even ridiculed his own face, saying that he was almost thin and inhuman, making Wu Guangyao almost runaway!

"If you feel tired, recruit people and put your rights down; this is not only to trust your colleagues, but also to liberate yourself, so that you have more energy to deal with the overall situation."

Wu Guangyao went on to say: "Oriental News will prepare another magazine, called "Economic Weekly" every Monday, to benchmark the US's "Fortune" and "Business Weekly." Again, let me reserve more talents. I The task will be issued at any time, and if it fails, the two of you will come and pour me some tea."

"It's finished, how could we not finish such a good thing!" Shen Baoxing was happy when he heard that he was about to release a new product.

This is the benefit of the shareholding system, not only working for the boss, but also working for yourself.

Sending off the two, Wu Guangyao's mind is running at high speed again, analyzing the next step of Oriental News.

Obviously it was too early to set up a TV station. This step was at least in the early 1960s before Wu Guangyao considered this issue.

In 1957, Li’s Voice established "Li’s Yingsheng" on Hong Kong Island and officially launched its TV service. This is the first TV station on Hong Kong Island and the Far East. At the beginning of its establishment, "Li De Ying Sheng" only had an English station with black and white screens, which played four hours a day. At the beginning of its establishment, the channel provided services on a fee basis, charging each user a monthly fee of 25 Hong Kong dollars, which was quite expensive at the time and was difficult for the general public to afford. There were only 640 users. This year, Li's Yingsheng aired the first live TV drama "Happy Family" in Hong Kong TV history for the first time.

In 1967, there were as many as 6000 users of Li Yingsheng. In September of this year, TVB (hereinafter referred to as TVB or wireless) was launched. TVB viewing is completely free, wireless reception, and many (not all) color screen programs. . While Li's Yingsheng was still black and white, many viewers began to watch TVB, and Li's Yingsheng was impacted by the constant loss of customers.

Finally, Wu Guangyao waved away the thoughts in his mind, and Oriental News should develop with paper media!

No matter what, it’s too advanced, it’s definitely not a good thing!

Don’t say whether technology can support this matter, even the public and the audience will not support things that are too advanced!
