609 [Sea Coachman]

In the 1950s and 1960s, Hong Kong once became the maritime overlord in Asia. To be precise, many of the bigwigs of that era started with sea transportation.

If you carefully study the history of Hong Kong tycoons making a fortune during that period, you will find that many of them rely on international embargo to smuggle activities, thus making their first pot of gold.

In the 1950s, Hong Kong was the most prosperous era in the maritime transportation industry. With the completion of Hong Kong's industrialization, it transformed from a product production base to a product sales base, from a daily necessities production base, and an international luxury goods metropolis, Hong Kong's maritime transportation industry was impacted.

Today, Hong Kong's shipping is no longer as prosperous as before. In addition, fierce competition and elimination of advantages and disadvantages have further weakened the profits of shipping.

But why is Song Zhichao determined to enter the big world of shipping and acquire the Huo family's wharf?

The reason is very simple. What Song Zhichao sees is the future rise of China's logistics industry. To be precise, the rise of overseas express delivery industry.

Since it comes from the future, Song Zhichao knows the future crazy domestic online shopping industry and the rise of the express delivery industry brought about by the crazy online shopping industry.

The three giants of express delivery, Shunfeng, Shentong, and Zhaihui Express - will dominate the country in the future. With the rise of overseas shopping, overseas logistics will also become the real overlord of the express delivery industry.

Now, Song Zhichao is paving the way for his logistics (express delivery) empire.

In addition, the Wanda foreign trade controlled by Song Zhichao is actually a combination of commodity sales and logistics. In the future, Song Zhichao will officially split the two to form a single sales and logistics, which will help increase profits and expand market size.

In short, when others play chess, they take three steps, while when Song Zhichao takes one step, they take ten steps.

Due to its advantage of predicting the future, Song Zhichao has already occupied the highest peak in the logistics industry.

Boss Huo didn't know this. At this moment, he stared at Song Zhichao, as if he wanted to see through him.

Song Zhichao was calm and calm, but instead took out the cigarette box again and popped out a cigarette.

Boss Huo smiled: "It is impossible to give it all to you. I have said that it is the foundation of our Huo family's starting lineup."

"Basics? If I remember well, the foundation of the Ming Dynasty in history was the founding of the country was Jinling, which was dominated by dragons and tigers. But in the end, it went north to the capital and defended the border, so that the country's destiny had been for hundreds of years."

"So, there is no foundation in this world. All you have is your eyes. Should you focus on the past or look to the future?" Song Zhichao handed over a cigarette with a smile.

Boss Huo didn't answer, his originally sharp eyes dimmed, and he sighed, "It's okay to give it to you - 11 billion!"

Originally, I thought Song Zhichao would hesitate or bargain. After all, 11 billion Hong Kong dollars is not a small amount, even exceeding the entire wealth of many Hong Kong bigwigs, but Song Zhichao said directly: "Okay, deal--!"

This time, Big Boss Huo had to look at Song Zhichao with admiration. He heard that Song Zhichao made a lot of money in the United States and now has a net worth of 10 billion US dollars, but this is just a legend. But at this moment, even Big Boss Huo felt inferior to Song Zhichao's heroic spirit of "spending 100 million gold".

Not everyone can take out 11 billion Hong Kong dollars - even if the Huo family wants to take out so much money in one go, they have to think twice.

"You seem to be very rich." Boss Huo couldn't help but ask tentatively.

Song Zhichao understates, "Money is just a number - if you don't use it, it's a dead number!"

"You have almost 100 billion Hong Kong dollars, right?" Mr. Huo couldn't help but move his throat. According to the investment principle of the capital chain, he could invest 15 billion, and the total capital should be at least ten times more.

"To be honest, I really don't know how much money I have now." Song Zhichao shook his head embarrassedly.

Boss Huo smiled, "You are the first person to say this - if you don't know, you will definitely think you are blowing water, but I believe you, because I don't know how much property I have now."

Yes, wealthy people of their level are basically growing wildly every day, how can they say an accurate number?

...

When the eldest son of the Huo family and the second son of the Huo family entered the house again, they found that the atmosphere at the scene was very delicate. The solemn aura had dissipated without a trace. At this moment, the spring breeze was everywhere - to be precise, Mr. Huo and Song Zhichao were chatting and laughing.

With a lot of doubts, the two young masters asked Mr. Huo what instructions he had. Mr. Huo said, "The contract has been changed - we are happy to cooperate with Achao!"

Two young masters: “…”

Look at me, I look at you.

When they understood the truth, they were even more surprised.

First, Song Zhichao withdrew from the Nansha investment plan and gave all the dividends to the Huo family?

Secondly, the Huo family actually wanted to sell Jiye Shipping Terminal to Song Zhichao?

Finally, Song Zhichao will invest HK$11 billion to purchase it and pay it in one lump sum?

The two young men were stunned for a long time.

Too much stimulation.

Not to mention anything else, Song Zhichao's move alone is 11 billion, which is shocking - you know, the children of a big family like them have never had a fortune of 10 billion yuan in one move.

For a moment, the two were both surprised and admired Song Zhichao - especially the sincerity of the second young master of the Huo family's contempt for Song Zhichao, which also became a valuation. In his own opinion, in the future, Song Zhichao would have become a strong opponent for him in the Hong Kong business world.

But these were all instant incidents, and soon the two of them came to their senses.

Mr. Huo readily accepted such a sudden change. To be precise, he always followed his father and boss Huo. He never refuted or disobeyed whatever his father said. Besides, what he inherited in the future is the sports career of the Huo family, and it has nothing to do with him if he doesn't have a dock. Moreover, if Huo's dock really sells 11 billion, as the eldest son, he can get a share of the pie.

The second young master of the Huo family is different. He is the future business heir designated by the Huo family. It can be said that the decision of Big Boss Huo is closely related to his future interests. To be precise, if the Huo family dock is not sold, it will become the cornerstone of his future business empire. Now he is rashly selling it, and 11 billion yuan of cash seems to be a lot, but after giving it to the family members one by one, he still has little left, so the second young master of the Huo family raised an objection at the first time.

Unfortunately, although Boss Huo is old, he still maintains his former arbitrary decision and does not give Mr. Huo Er to refute at all.

Finally, under the unhappy gaze of Mr. Huo Er, the contract was signed.

Song Zhichao and Boss Huo shook hands and cooperated again.

Although there were no outsiders present, the two giants' handshakes have begun to quietly change the pattern of Hong Kong's logistics industry.

When leaving the Overseas Chinese Association, Mr. Huo was unwell and asked Mr. Huo to drive Song Zhichao away in person.

Mr. Huo readily agreed.

...

Leaving the club, on the way—

Inside the car, Song Zhichao, who was leaning on the back chair, suddenly said meaningfully to Mr. Huo who was driving in front: "Thank you!"

Master Huo, who was driving, laughed, "I want to thank you for your thanks--it was originally 10 billion, but it cost you 1 billion more."

Song Zhichao smiled slightly: "It is worth spending an extra billion to make you a friend - if you hadn't reminded me that I could acquire your Huo family's port terminal, I wouldn't have won the game back."

Mr. Huo smiled even brighter, "Those old wharfs should have been sold long ago, I just gave you a little advice - Besides, it is worth it for our Huo family to exchange the wharf for the controlling stake in Nansha."

Song Zhichao laughed: "That's why I said that the eldest son of the Huo family is indeed different - he can see far and be accurate!"
