A young man with an expressionless face stood next to several large boxes. Guan Chong could tell at a glance that he was from the concierge department of Dongfeng Group, the main group company. Key departments of the companies below usually have people from the concierge department.
, banks are the top priority.
Guan Chong didn't have time to think too much and signaled the accounting supervision staff of Hua Xia United Bank to count the cash.
Pan Jie said, "20 million cash, all with a face value of 100 yuan, is packed in five standard check-in boxes, each of which contains 4 million cash. There is only so much cash for today. If it is not enough, come back tomorrow to get it."
The strength of Hua Xia United Bank is evident.
With so many branches of the four major state-owned banks, only a handful can withdraw 20 million in cash in one day, and this amount of money is only the amount of cash that Hua Xia United Bank must guarantee every day.
Guan Chong breathed a sigh of relief. With 20 million in cash, there was no financial problem in purchasing materials. The 20 million worth of grain and related materials were definitely enough for the county.
"Thank you, Mr. Pan, that should be enough." Guan Chong said.
Unexpectedly, Pan Jie shook his head and said, "Mr. Yao asked us to prepare at least 500 million in cash. I suggest you make more preparations when purchasing. Mr. Yao may have other arrangements."
"Five hundred million?" Guan Chong was shocked.
Pan Jie nodded slightly, "I checked the weather forecast. It's raining heavily throughout East China. It may be that the disaster area is not limited to Hexian County. Mr. Yao probably has this consideration."
The people at Headwind Logistics are undoubtedly the most sensitive to prices, and they are also aware of the current price levels. If all the 500 million funds are used to purchase rice, according to the current price, it is about 0.8 yuan per catty, and 3 million tons can be purchased.
.
The national grain reserve is a state secret, and even the announced grain output is reserved. Food is the most important thing for the people, and our country is a country that adheres to the red line of 1.8 billion acres of cultivated land. The minimum standard is that the grain it produces can feed the people of the country.
At least Guan Chong knew that there were absolutely no 3 million tons of grain available for trading on the market.
Of course, food is not just rice, and disaster relief materials for eating include not only food, but also products that can be eaten quickly such as instant noodles.
However, no matter how you compare it, 500 million yuan is extremely huge. If all this money is used to purchase food and daily necessities, it can fully meet the basic life of at least 50 million people in East China for 5 days.
Guan Chong never imagined that the scale would reach this level.
From receiving the order to now, what he has been thinking about is how to protect the lives of more than 300,000 people in Hexian County. In fact, the number of people affected by the disaster will never be consistent with the total population. In other words, he thinks he is doing
The work we do is already what the head office calls “saturated guarantee”.
Now, I learned from Pan Jie that the disaster relief funds that the Corporation requested Hua Xia United Bank to prepare reached 500 million, and this does not include the funds prepared by other companies under the Corporation!
Guan Chong realized that the disaster relief operation he was participating in was by no means within the scope of a county, and he also realized the great responsibility on his shoulders.
There are several branches in East China. The Shanghai branch is much heavier than the Jinling branch, but the head office has left all the rear organization and coordination matters to him. At first, he thought it was because Jinling was closest to He County.
, in fact, this is the case, but now he finds that it is not entirely due to this reason.
Suddenly, Guan Chong felt the head office’s trust in him!
He said, "I understand, Mr. Pan, thank you! Without further ado, I will start working now and we will communicate again tomorrow."
"Okay, pay attention to safety." When Pan Jie said this, he looked at the five boarding boxes.
This amount of money is enough to drive anyone crazy. With the current public security situation, it is extremely possible for someone to shoot to death and take away someone if someone knows they are carrying so much money with them!
There was a person from the concierge escorting us, and Guan Chong also brought two brothers. Including him and the accountant, there were five people, so there should be no problem in terms of safety.
Without saying much, Guan Chong immediately loaded the suitcases into the car, and the five people in the car set off immediately.
The list Pan Jie provided was for companies that had supplies for sale. Guan Chong clicked on the list and contacted them one by one. It was already off work time, so it was very troublesome to find people.
Simply, Guan Chong used his magic weapon to clear the way with money.
The one with the most grain in the urban area was undoubtedly the grain station. He went directly to the leader of the grain station to express his intention, and used a large amount of cash to persuade him. Finally, he purchased the first batch of commercial grain - 10,000 kilograms of rice. He immediately contacted the vehicle overnight
Load and transport to Jinling warehouse.
There are also clothes.
Currently, the company that owns the most clothing in China is the Yongan Group. This company controls more than 90% of the supply of goods to Russia and European and other countries, and has already formed a monopoly. Almost everyone who does border trade knows that as long as it is with
Cooperate with Yongan Group and just wait to make money.
Shanghai is a very important warehousing and distribution center of Yongan Group. Most of the goods are transported to the Far East via railway lines, and from there all the way west to Moscow and Rotterdam.
Guan Chong did not know the relationship between Yongan Group and Dongfeng Group. In fact, many people knew very little about the latter.
Of course, initiating the first-level response includes Yongan Group. In this matter, Yu Yongan spared no effort.
Therefore, when Guan Chong contacted the branch of Yongan Group in Shanghai and proposed to purchase large quantities of clothing, he was told that there was no stock available. After some communication, Guan Chong learned that Yongan Group and Nanfang Industrial were brother companies.
Also doing disaster relief.
The company is too big, Yongan Group is no smaller than Southern Industrial, so they have their own set of disaster relief procedures.
Guan Chong simply coordinated with the person in charge of Yongan Group, and Headwind Logistics took the initiative to undertake the transportation of Yongan Group’s disaster relief materials.
The first-level response system has loopholes and is definitely imperfect, such as transportation and distribution.
Guan Chong’s proactive actions undoubtedly filled the gap in transportation and distribution, and he found a very effective way - Headwind Logistics is responsible for the unified transportation and distribution of disaster relief materials.
This model was used by JD.com twenty years later, and it was very efficient.
When Yao Yuan learned that the first batch of disaster relief supplies had been sent from Shanghai overnight, he breathed a sigh of relief. As all aspects of work progressed, the disaster relief operation gradually took shape.
That night, the troops entered He County. Southern Industrial immediately established a coordination mechanism with the military and local authorities and quickly launched disaster relief under the unified command of the disaster relief headquarters.
In the early morning, a Boeing 747 loaded with rubber boats and other disaster relief tools landed at Jinling Airport. Headwind Logistics quickly transported the rubber boats that were most in short supply on the front line to Hexian County, and then provided them to troops and local rescue workers. Southern Industrial employees were unified
Participate in disaster relief.
On the third day, floods occurred in many places in East China. The country established a disaster relief headquarters and mobilized national forces to rush to the aid of East China.
Southern Industrial has gradually shifted to the role of logistics support, mainly providing materials and transportation.
One week after the flood, Nanfang Industrial announced that it would donate 1 billion yuan in Chinese currency to help people in the disaster area resume production and life. All companies under the Chunfeng Group announced donations one after another. Even Headwind Logistics, which continued to lose money, donated 30 million yuan to
to the disaster area.
What pleased Yao Yuan was that Southern Industrial's actions two days in advance mobilized other disaster relief forces, and the number of victims killed in the flood was much less than in history.
On September 29th, Yao Yuan came to Hong Kong, and on the 30th, a massive charity performance was planned to be held.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, Yu Yong'an accompanied Yao Yuan to the Government Stadium. The place was already crowded, and a huge banner read "Selfless Performance".
Yu Yongan said, "The four major TV stations will broadcast it at the same time and will also send it to more than 20 countries and regions through artificial satellites. Chinese people around the world should be able to see it."
"How many celebrities are participating?" Yao Yuan asked.
Yu Yongan smiled and said, "More than 200 artists performed for charity, and all the money raised was donated to the people in the disaster area. I have already announced a donation of 100 million Hong Kong dollars, and several other wealthy people have also expressed their opinions."
This is the first and only Hong Kong artist show in history.
The performance started on time, and all of Yao Yuan's distant memories came out. Lin Shuting, who had just arrived in Hong Kong to watch the performance, said, "The 1990s was the last good era for Hong Kong artists. After their generation got older, Hong Kong literature and art
The world will also fall."
"They are still young." Lin Shuting looked for familiar movie stars. When she saw Anita Mui, she couldn't help but applaud.
Yao Yuan said with emotion, "Yes, they are still young now."
The performance kicked off, and all the artists appeared in light makeup. Yang Shoucheng said that he would donate 100,000 Hong Kong dollars if Cheng Hongsheng did a somersault. Cheng Hongsheng rolled from one side of the stage to the other side, and then from the other side in one breath.
Come back to this side.
A rich man named Anita Mui to sing and donated 1 million Hong Kong dollars after singing one song. Anita Mui sang three songs in a row.
After watching for more than two hours, Yao Yuan and others left. The show will last for more than eight hours, until night.
Back at the villa, Yao Yuan said, "Old Yu, let's make a movie. Invite all Hong Kong artists to participate, and all the proceeds will be used for disaster relief."
"It's not necessary." Yu Yongan said while smoking a cigar. He now looks like a Hong Kong rich man.
What he meant was very simple. Instead of making a movie to get paid for disaster relief, it would be better to donate money directly. It's not that there is no money, but a lot of money.
Yao Yuan said, "The meaning is different. Movies can play a propaganda role and allow more people to participate. The disaster area has expanded to fifteen provinces and municipalities, and the affected population may be as high as 50 million people. The most critical thing is not now
It is a long-term task to help people in the disaster area return to normal production and life as soon as possible."
Because Dongfeng Group's enterprises went all out and organized a large amount of funds to enter the disaster area, the government did not ask the international community for help as it did in history. This did not protect the country's face.
"Okay, I'll call Gu Xiaohua." Yu Yongan picked up the phone and called, and explained the matter in a few words.
Yao Yuan asked, "Who is Gu Xiaohua? The Gu Xiaohua who was filming?"
"Yes, he is also the boss of the film company. Didn't you know that you personally appointed him?" Yu Yong'an asked.
Yao Yuan shook his head and couldn't remember it at all.
Yu Yongan smiled and said, "You have really good taste. Koo Xiaohua has made several salty and wet films that were very popular. Recently, he has started to change his career and made a police film, which was also very popular."
"Gu Xiaohua makes a salty and wet film?" Yao Yuan was stunned and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Yu Yongan said, "Which star didn't start from making salty and wet films? Hong Kong is not the mainland, and salty and wet films are allowed to be released. The Hong Kong film market has not been very good in recent years, but our film company is good, Zhou Xingxing,
The movies in which Zhou Fafa and Cheng Gangsheng participated were among the top three at the box office, with good returns, and Louis Koo also did a great job."
"The film company signed a contract with Double Monday Dragon?" Yao Yuan was very surprised.
Yu Yongan smiled bitterly and said, "You told me personally when you came to Hong Kong last time. Since there is no shortage of money, of course Gu Xiaohua went out to dig it up."
Yao Yuan said helplessly, "If this continues, how can other film companies survive?"
Throughout the 1990s, if we want to name the three Hong Kong actors with the best box office, they must be Zhou Xingxing, Zhou Fafa and Cheng Hongsheng. The box office of one of their movies is often the total box office of all other movies. Especially Zhou Xingxing, the leading actor
The movies have repeatedly broken Hong Kong box office records.
A word from the boss will make his subordinates busy to death.
The last time he came to Hong Kong, out of bad taste, Yao Yuan named many artists in succession. They were all good artists who had passed the test and evaluation of time twenty years later. He actually did not say that he had to sign these people, but no matter how old he was,
Xiaohua heard that the boss's words were orders.
Gu Xiaohua, who was holding back his energy to make a career, naturally spared no effort to recruit people. Fortunately for Zhou Xingxing, his golden age has not yet begun. It will be difficult for Zhou Fafa and Cheng Gangsheng. Gu Xiaohua spent a lot of money.
In the end, it was Yu Yongan who came forward to negotiate and the two of them were officially signed.
Yao Yuan said, "I will leave tonight and go to the capital."
"I'll go with you. I've also received an invitation." Yu Yong'an said, "The invitation from the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce should be from a different meeting than yours. The Garment Association is about to become a regular official and recommended me to be the chairman. I agreed.
."
Yao Yuan nodded slightly, "Good thing, continue to drive down the price and enter Europe and the United States."
"It's not that easy." Yu Yong'an said.
"It all depends on people." Yao Yuan said, "After the incident in Beijing is over, I will go abroad directly, and you will still have to keep an eye on the disaster relief work."
Yu Yongan was stunned, "Don't worry about disaster relief. Where are you going?"
"Alianyou, participate in the bidding for Sedan Oilfield." Yao Yuandao,
Yu Yongan was stunned again and said helplessly, "You want to buy an oil field again... Ayuan, tell me the truth, will your focus in the future be on oil development? The current valuation of Dongfang Petroleum Company
It is already number one among all your companies."
"The focus is still on industries based on machinery manufacturing, but energy is the future. If there is an opportunity now, we must strive to get it. There will be no such opportunity in the future."
Yao Yuan once again made clear the future development direction to Yu Yongan.
