"The appearance is good, it matches my concept very well," Xing Baohua said, looking at the floor plan.

Safdi explained, "Now that the exterior design is finalized, we'll design the internal structure. Are there any special requirements for the interior?"

"Large-scale restaurants, a large theater, and preferably a comprehensive sports stadium, the rest are normal designs. There should be a super five-star hotel, shopping streets, food streets, etc.," Xing Baohua said.

“Okay, we will incorporate your requirements into the design,” Safdi said, nodding.

"What about the swimming pool on the top floor?" Xing Baohua asked finally.

"The initial plan is to use a large amount of steel structure support, then pour concrete. After two layers of waterproofing, tiles will be laid."

In case of severe weather, drain the water and close the pool.

This effectively prevents the water from being affected by the kinetic energy generated by strong winds in the pool.

Xing Baohua nodded. As long as this problem could be solved, everything else would be easy to discuss.

The sea off Hong Kong is not as calm as that of Singapore; there are very few storms or big waves throughout the year, so many factors don't need to be considered.

But Hong Kong is different! It gets hit by typhoons several times a year.

After considering all the factors, Safdi told Xing Baohua that he would get to work as soon as possible and produce the design drawings and budget.

If anything comes up, his assistant will handle the communication during this period.

After agreeing, Xing Baohua left Safdi's firm, H.

After finishing up his company business, Xing Baohua passed through customs and arrived in Pengcheng.

Here, we will examine relevant policies and take a look at our own health product factory.

Shenzhen, as an open window, has its own unique characteristics.

During its construction, the city was already designed with a distinctive style and numerous convenient features. Firstly, joint ventures have an easier time, as they can enjoy more tax-free policies upon arrival.

Xing Baohua went to the health products factory first. Ever since Zhao Shanhai went to the Far East, this guy had his childhood friend Xu Shuai come over to serve as the factory director.

Although Xu Shuai may sometimes seem a bit scatterbrained and unreliable, he is loyal and trustworthy.

Xing Baohua is content as long as the health product factory maintains its current production scale, without seeking any major developments.

Only then did he realize the helplessness of having no great generals in Shu.

Accompanied by Xu Shuai, Xing Baohua took a look at the busy factory and then went to the office for a chat.

"How does it feel to be a factory manager here? What are your thoughts?" Xing Baohua asked, sitting on the sofa.

"I can't really describe my feelings, as long as we don't stop production or reduce output. There are other things I can't manage, but I'm learning about management. Before, people would tell me how to do this and how to do that, and they would direct me, which worked well."

"Nobody's talking to us now, so we just have to work blindly. Sometimes I'm even afraid of ruining your business, and I haven't been able to sleep for days," Xu Shuai said.

"You need to have your own opinions! Management is actually quite simple. Just manage the people below you first. Then watch the rest of them do their jobs. If the people at the bottom aren't doing a good job, then you can talk to the supervisors."

"If you don't work hard, you'll be fine as long as you're fired." Xing Baohua was essentially giving a live demonstration.

"How could I dare to drive just like that! They were all hired at high salaries, and one of them is a relative of Old Zhao's family," Xu Shuai said.

Xing Baohua blinked. This kid's gotten a bit shrewd! He wasn't usually so roundabout; he was always straightforward, asking and telling everyone everything.

Now they're beating around the bush; it sounds like there's some unpleasantness between them and management.

"If someone is hired at a high salary but doesn't work or doesn't listen, just fire them. It's easy to replace them. If Old Zhao's relatives can't control him, let him go back. Don't worry about anyone else's feelings. Remember, since you're the factory manager here, you need to have a voice."

"If you don't do a good job, I won't give you any face just because of our childhood friendship. If you don't do a good job, you'll embarrass me. Understand?" Xing Baohua said, his tone slightly more emphatically.

He continued, "Of course, you can't act impulsively and let anyone you don't like go. If they really go against you and affect the company's development, they have to leave for a while. Do you understand what I mean?"

Xu Shuai nodded, and then didn't say another word.

Next, accompanied by Xu Shuai, Xing Baohua went to see the purified water and mineral water transported from Guixi, and even drank a few bottles. The taste was alright.

The purified water wasn't given any fancy names; it was simply called "Source of Longevity."

It symbolizes the spring water coming from the edge of the longevity village.

It's said that drinking it is a way to live a long life, but as for drinking this stuff to actually make you live longer? Anyone with a brain wouldn't believe that!

It was like when Xing Baohua had a friend who invited several people to climb Niushan Mountain and visit Muke Village, west of Dongyue Mountain.

At the foot of Niushan Mountain, there is a village where many people from the surrounding area come to fetch water in their water bottles. Xing Baohua and his friends were passing by and, out of curiosity, went over to ask them what was going on.

After all, almost every household now has running water, and some even have water cooler tanks. This phenomenon of people crowding together to get water is indeed intriguing, and I had to go over and ask to find out what was going on.

Actually, this is a spring well, flowing down from Niushan Mountain. The water volume is very small; it takes more than ten minutes to fill a 10-liter bucket.

When asked why they didn't drink water from their homes or other places, and since the people in line were idle, they explained the benefits of the spring water.

This spring is called the Hundred Medicines Spring, because it can cure all diseases.

Upon hearing this, Xing Baohua and the others laughed immediately; none of them believed it.

Just like the advertisements of Sanzhu back then, it also claimed to cure all diseases, even a thousand diseases.

The people in line said, "You out-of-towners shouldn't be so skeptical. Several elderly people with serious illnesses have recovered after drinking this water. One of them was an 80-year-old woman who had cancer. The hospital said there was no hope of recovery and she only had two or three months left."
