In Feng Yifeng's view, meeting Li Wenwen and others was simply devaluing his own identity. Seeing the ugly faces of them shirking responsibilities, Feng Yifeng was no longer interested in entangled with them anymore. He said a few words in Ruan Xiongwen's ear.
, and left alone.
Feng Yifeng's departure did not stop them from noisy. In the end, Ruan Xiongwen couldn't bear it and stopped their farce. People like Li Wenwen were of no use to Feng Yifeng, but they still decided to teach him a lesson and temporarily detain him.
Of course, he would not be detained in a villa. Ruan Xiongwen sent him and a group of his men to a village house in Tuen Mun to polish off his arrogance. As for Li Baohe, it was even simpler. He was sent directly to
As for his final outcome, Feng Yifeng should not worry about it, but he believes that the people at "Yiqun" will not let him have a chance to see the light of day again.
Feng Yifeng has more important things to be busy with now. His last important investment plan this year has reached the final stage. A freight company with terminal operations acquired in Panama has submitted a plan to operate the No. 2 Container Terminal to the Hong Kong government.
Book. However, according to the feedback, the current situation is not optimistic. The Wharf Group, which has already obtained the operating rights of Container Terminal No. 1, has also submitted a plan, and it has been unanimously favored.
In addition to the Wharf Group, Dubai Port and the Port of Singapore Authority are also willing to participate, which makes the prospects even more bleak. Compared with the above three companies, the Panama company controlled by Feng Yifeng is obviously at a disadvantage.
Firstly, the three companies are well-known in Asia and have rich experience in management and operation. Secondly, although Panama Freight is operating a small terminal in Panama, in front of many American companies, it has already
It is difficult to operate, so many people are skeptical about the ability to operate the No. 2 Container Terminal successfully.
It is because he suffered a big loss from Shao Liushu in the TVB acquisition battle before. This time Feng Yifeng did not dare to take it lightly again. After all, he is now in a weak position. If he does not come up with some surprising ways to win, it is very likely that he will be defeated in the future.
He was not selected on the announced list. "Do we have to find a company to cooperate? Is there no other way? Or we can modify the plan to meet the requirements of the Hong Kong government. Will there be a greater chance of winning?"
Feng Yifeng, who was on the phone with Mani from the United States, showed reluctance in his words.
"There is no other way. When we made the plan, we did not take into account the strength of the participating companies and whether local Hong Kong companies were interested. This made us very passive in the final stage. Also
Operating a container terminal is not as simple as imagined. The terminal can berth the largest container ship tonnage, how many standard container units is the maximum annual handling capacity of the terminal, and how many freight groups we need to cooperate with. These are all issues that we did not consider at the beginning.
If you still want to compete with the other three companies, I think the best solution is to find a company with strength and experience to cooperate." Mani also revealed his helplessness, after all, this plan was a closed-door plan for the three of them at the time.
came out, but in the end I found that the information I collected and my thoughts about operating a container terminal were too simplistic.
"So is there any company in your mind that is suitable for you?"
"Because time is so tight now, we have no business contact with local companies in Hong Kong at all, so it is impossible to find local companies to cooperate with. I have screened in the United States and found two companies suitable for cooperation. They are American Sea and Land Transport Co., Ltd.
Corporation and U.S. International Shipping.”
"So have you discussed it with them? Have they made any decision?" Feng Yifeng listened nervously. This is related to the final success or failure of this plan.
"Carlos and I have discussed with these two companies respectively, but their conditions are far from our original plan. Not only do they want to establish a new joint venture with us, but they also want them to have absolute controlling rights
"So Carlos and I didn't agree immediately. We have sorted out the conditions offered by the two companies and will be able to fax them to you soon. The final decision is left to you." Although Mani is the CEO.
Official, but this plan was first proposed by Feng Yifeng, so he did not dare to make the final decision rashly.
In fact, what Mani said basically means that he is not optimistic about this cooperation. If he cooperates with these two companies, then "God-given proof?" In fact, he will completely lose control of the new company, even if he finally relies on the new company
With his strength, Feng Yifeng also lost the conditions for him to use the container terminal to enter the Hong Kong economic system.
"Okay then. You can fax the information over first and I'll think about it carefully. But I want to hear your and Carlos' opinions. You just need to answer me truthfully." Although he had already thought of the result, Feng Yifeng still wanted to know what he said.
The advice of your right-hand man.
"The opinion of Carlos and I is to give up this bid. If we give up now, we can save some losses. If we cooperate with them, we will be led by their noses, which is contrary to our company's business philosophy. There is no need to pay for something that cannot be done."
In order to gain control, we will spend more money and time." Mani's deep voice came over the phone, and it could be heard that he was also frustrated by this failure.
"I understand." After saying this, Feng Yifeng had already hung up the phone. Sitting on the executive chair in the study room, he really felt extremely disappointed. Failures may have occurred countless times in many people's lives.
times. But Feng Yifeng relied on the memory of his previous life. He did not do anything to the best. He did not allow himself to fail, and he did not allow himself to fail when he had an advantage. But after coming to Hong Kong this time, first
The failure to acquire TVB and now the management rights of Container Terminal No. 2 are also likely to encounter Waterloo again. The continuous blows have made him re-examine his abilities.
"Is Xiaofeng here? It's grandpa!" Grandpa's voice came from outside the study door.
"Oh! It's grandpa. The door is unlocked. Come in!"
The door to the study room opened, and grandpa's old figure walked in. Seeing his grandson nestled in the executive chair, grandpa shook his head and sat down on the sofa on the side. "I heard Wenxiu said that you had some problems in your business.
, I can see from the way you look now that you must be frustrated. Can you tell your grandpa? Although your grandpa has no other skills except making shrimp paste, you can treat me as a good listener.
Tell grandpa about your depression and thoughts, maybe you will feel better."
"I have nothing to do. I'm really sorry to make you worry about me, grandpa." Feng Yifeng forced himself to show an ugly smile. In grandpa's opinion, it was better not to smile.
"What are you talking about? We are all a family. You are my grandson. It is right to worry about you. If I hadn't seen your current achievements, I would have left the shrimp paste factory to you. But now it seems
There is no need for it. With your current wealth, the shrimp paste that your grandpa may have been selling for several lifetimes cannot compare with what you have now. Look at the young people outside. At your age, except for those who are still studying,
Most of them are either struggling at the bottom, or they are still worried about three meals a day. If you have such an achievement, you are an exception, and you must be content. Maybe in your opinion, I am a bit unprogressive in saying this, but
You also have to think carefully, is there nothing else for people to do in this world besides making money? You are not alone now. In addition to relatives like us, you also have Wenxiu, Nannan and Azhi behind you.
The purpose of life is to take good care of them and make them live happily. Your grandpa doesn't study much and can't explain any big principles, but I still know what failure means success. Mom, don't judge yourself just because of one failure.
Low. In my eyes, my grandson is the best and the strongest." Don't look at the fact that my grandpa rarely comes out of Hong Kong. He has been dealing with those shrimp pastes in Cheung Chau all his life, but there are still so many words he said.
Meaningful.
"I know, it's all my own fault. There is no one who can succeed in business without failure. People have ups and downs, and businesses also make money and lose money. There are many things that I can't do in this world, but there are also
There are a lot of things I should do waiting for me. Thank you! Grandpa!" After listening to his grandfather's words quietly, he finally came out of the haze.
He trapped himself in a dead end. After his rebirth, he didn't have much pursuit of money. The reason why he worked hard to make money was to have a better life in this life and to have better protection for his pursuit.
Making money is just a numbers game. With his current wealth, he can't spend it all in several lifetimes. There is no need to grieve over a single setback. He admitted that his personality has changed a lot after his rebirth, and he has become a bit selfish and strong.
possessiveness, but most of this is reflected in the women around him. But this time, in order to become a very important rich man in Hong Kong in the near future, he pushed himself too hard, but failed repeatedly, and his mood was natural
He fell into loss and depression, which may have been caused by his inner demons. But now his grandfather's words made him finally wake up. He still has an incomparable advantage. If it doesn't work once, try again. Opportunities will always be left to him.
A prepared person.
I happily chatted and drank with my grandpa in the study, which just happened to suit my liking. After moving into the villa, my grandpa was watched very closely by my grandma. Usually he would be asked to drink for a while if he wanted to have a drink. Today I can finally drink to my heart's content.
After a few drinks, he doesn't have to worry about grandma suddenly coming in and nagging him.
"Grandpa, I am going back to the United States in a few days. My studies there are not over yet, and there are a lot of business matters waiting for me to deal with. I want you and grandma to go back with me.
Let’s visit the United States first, and then go to Canada to visit grandpa and parents. You haven’t seen them for a long time. You just have time now, so why not go and see them!” Feng Yifeng has decided to give up the confrontation.
No. 1 Container Terminal plan, it no longer makes sense for him to stay in Hong Kong, so before leaving, he wants to bring his grandfather and grandmother to Canada.
"I don't want to go. I have never been to other places in my life. Now I have to go so far to the United States. What if I don't adapt to the climate? Besides, it's nowhere as good as Hong Kong. I think it's better to wait for you to leave, and your grandma and I will go back.
Let’s go to Cheung Chau, the shrimp paste factory can’t do it without one person.” He refused without thinking.
"Grandpa, you just have to go and see it if you haven't been there. There are Chinatowns in the United States, and the people living there are all Chinese, and the food they eat is Chinese food, so you don't have to worry. Don't you want to meet your mother? Even if you don't want to, grandma will
I have said more than once that I miss my mother, so why not take this time to go there? As for the shrimp paste factory, don’t worry, I will let people watch. Why don’t you go discuss it with grandma, and then we can go together
Went to the United States." Feng Yifeng still hopes to bring her grandparents to Canada, so that they and her mother don't have to live far apart and can only rely on letters to know the current situation.
