At this point, the overall situation was settled.
The conversation among the three of them became more relaxed.
Chen Dong raised his teacup and gestured to Lin Benjian.
Huang Yali also picked up her cup with a smile.
bite!
The three cups clinked together, making a crisp sound.
Chen Dong said with a smile, "I hope our cooperation will truly be achieved!"
"I'm really looking forward to it too!" Hayashi Honma said with a smile.
Setting down his teacup, Chen Dong said to Huang Yali, "Ms. Huang, I still have to thank you for this! Thank you for facilitating our meeting with Mr. Lin, such a talented man."
Upon hearing Lin Zhi's words, Huang Yali's eyebrows curved and her eyes narrowed into slits.
She anticipated Chen Dong's intentions, so she looked at him expectantly.
Chen Dong certainly did not disappoint her.
Then Chen Dong said, "Your factory will be auctioned off in about ten days, is that right?"
"Yes, probably in about 15 days."
"Okay, I'll transfer the money as soon as I get back to Hong Kong. Trust me, this amount will only be more, not less."
"What we agreed on before is still valid. You can continue to manage this company, and I won't interfere too much with its specific operations."
"I believe the company will develop even better."
"Currently, your company's business scope is limited to Taiwan and Hong Kong, but I believe the future direction is the mainland."
"Believe me, it's a huge market, a virgin territory, a promising land."
Hayashi Honma let out a hearty laugh.
"It seems that Mr. Chen is particularly optimistic about the mainland market, both in the semiconductor field and in the clothing business."
“That’s right, that’s exactly what I think. Because I originally lived in mainland China, and now I’ve come to Hong Kong and Taiwan, looking back at the development of mainland China, I have a deeper understanding of it.”
“Looking back at the history of the past hundred years, isn’t it obvious that Western countries wanted to open up the Chinese market, which led to the Opium Wars?”
"Back then, China only had three or four hundred million people. Now China has a population of one billion, which is much larger than it was back then. In short, where there is population, there is market."
What Lin Zhi said piqued the interest of Huang Yali and Lin Benjian, who listened attentively.
Huang Yali and Lin Benjian are located outside mainland China and are not particularly familiar with many things, or at least their understanding is not very clear.
Although the mainland has been implementing reform and opening up for more than a decade, and the opening of the country has given them a better understanding of the mainland, it is certainly not as detailed as the information provided by Chen Dong.
Therefore, what Chen Dong said aroused their great interest, gave them greater confidence in the development of the mainland, and also gave them a deeper understanding of why Chen Dong regarded the mainland as an important strategic support point.
Of course, what Chen Dong said did not reveal that it would become a global manufacturing center and the world's second largest economy in a few decades.
Even if Chen Dong said that, they wouldn't believe it.
After all, this is truly absurd, almost fanciful.
However, even if Chen Dong didn't say anything earth-shattering, it wouldn't affect their expectations for development in the mainland.
The conversation continued for a long time.
Then, they found a local restaurant nearby, had a meal, and then parted ways.
During the meal, it was obvious that both Chen Linben and Huang Yali looked much more relaxed.
During the meal, they continued their previous conversation.
The three gained a better understanding of each other and developed greater confidence in future cooperation.
In short, the meal was a pleasant one for both the host and guests.
It was past 2 p.m. when we left.
Before they knew it, they had been chatting for more than four hours.
Huang Yali and Lin Benjian walked together, while Chen Dong strolled around the streets.
At this moment, a light drizzle began to fall from the sky, making everything appear as if shrouded in mist, giving it an incredibly moist feel.
Chen Dong strolled along, feeling the atmosphere that was completely different from that of the mainland and Hong Kong.
He arrived at a street full of snacks.
This place is full of Taiwanese snacks, such as Taiwanese sausage wrapped in sticky rice, Dingbiancuo (a type of noodle dish), oyster omelet, Ah Zong noodles, tempura, and coffin bread.
There are also various fruits, such as wax apples and mangosteens.
He bought some casually and strolled in the drizzle, eating as he went.
Of course, his behavior seems rather strange to some people.
Because most people are still used to sitting there, quietly watching the rain, and enjoying their food.
However, Chen Dong didn't care much about any of these things.
He still believes in the saying, "Go your own way and let others talk." As long as he feels comfortable, that's all that matters, and he hasn't affected or inconvenienced anyone else.
Many people, seeing Chen Dong's carefree behavior, looked on with envy and began to imitate him.
Various kinds of music could be heard from the street from time to time, some coming from restaurants and others being sung by people on the street, and it sounded pretty good.
Many of the songs are still quite new to people who live in mainland China.
Although cross-strait exchanges are now much more convenient, it is only relatively so, and there are still significant limitations, requiring several procedures to be followed.
Of course, Chen Dong doesn't understand the Min dialect, so while he finds many songs pleasant to listen to, he doesn't know their meaning.
However, it's nice to be able to hear these beautiful melodies.
Many popular songs from Taiwan are linked to the Hong Kong music scene.
Chen Dong felt that Taiwan's popular music culture was worth exploring, and that Taiwan should be an important part of his cultural development plan.
When the time is right, the film and television industry of Taiwan Province can be combined with that of Hong Kong and promoted abroad.
However, doing so will be somewhat difficult. After all, the future status of Taiwan Province and Hong Kong is different.
Even now, things are very different. Although Hong Kong is still under the rule of the United Kingdom, the Governor's control over Hong Kong has been largely laissez-faire, and has even become more relaxed in the last two years, which in many ways has laid the groundwork for Hong Kong's return to China in 1997.
In the future, I can think of ways to integrate the popular culture of Taiwan with the culture of Hong Kong and use it for my own purposes.
To a certain extent, the cultures of Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the mainland are highly complementary.
For example, Hong Kong's film and television industry can rival Hollywood to a certain extent, but due to the development of Hollywood in recent years and the imperfect system of Hong Kong's film and television industry, serious imitation, lack of innovation, capital outflow, etc., it is actually on a downward trend.
My involvement now will greatly boost Hong Kong's film and television industry, enabling it to truly rival Hollywood and, in the future, South Korea's film and television industry.
