Chapter 456 Establishment of a Company (Part 1)
On the way back, Lu Jianchuan took a detour to the long-distance telephone building in Fuxingmen.
An international long-distance hub was opened here a few months ago. Now it is much more convenient to make phone calls than before, but the call charges are still ridiculously expensive.
There are not many people making international long-distance calls these days, and it is hard for the staff to forget about someone like Lu Jianchuan who makes calls every half a month.
Before he finished filling out the form, the staff had already skillfully dialed the phone number in London. When Lu Jianchuan came back, Lu's mother and Lin Siqiao had been chatting for several minutes.
On the phone, Lu's mother explained everything in detail.
Knowing that everything was fine at home and that his senior brother would soon return to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Lin Siqiao's tense heart relaxed a little.
After finishing the business, Mother Lu asked distressedly, "Qiao Qiao, will you come back for the New Year this year?"
There is no way. The daughter-in-law has been gone for more than a year. Not only does her son miss her, but she, as the mother-in-law, also misses her very much.
Especially the last time Lu Jianchuan came back, he brought them some Chinese specialties. After Lu's mother tasted them, her worries finally settled down.
To put it nicely, it's called bread. To put it bluntly, what's the difference between it and a brick?
It was the first time for Mother Lu to see that a kitchen knife was needed to cut bread. Even with the kitchen knife, cutting the bread was like sawing wood.
She originally thought that since foreigners eat it every day, the taste couldn't be too bad.
As a result, after taking a bite, Mother Lu couldn't bite it anymore.
Just at this moment, Lu Jianchuan took out a box of sour and moldy cheese and asked her to eat it together. This made Lu's mother completely upset.
So, her daughter-in-law eats this stuff every day when she is abroad?
Lu Jianchuan didn't dare to say that his wife usually would order a cup of black coffee without sugar or milk.
Lin Siqiao was fine eating it, but Mother Lu didn’t know.
I always feel that she suffers a lot abroad.
If Lu's mother wasn't the family member of a public official and couldn't go abroad at will, she would have packed her bags immediately and gone abroad to take care of her for a while.
Lin Siqiao knew that her mother-in-law felt sorry for her, but she probably wouldn’t be able to go back for the New Year.
This year's New Year's Eve was at the end of January, when school had just started in Cambridge.
The fact that she took a half-month leave in May had already caused a sensation in the whole school. If she took another leave specifically to go home for the New Year, it might cause public outrage.
And the situation this semester is rather special.
Because she is now Dr. Leo's assistant, she has to go to the laboratory with him on weekends.
Mother Lu understood immediately, "Qiao Qiao, what about March? It won't be too hot or too cold then. It's just right for you to come back. I'll give you a good rest then."
"Mom, I may not be able to go back in March."
Lin Siqiao said, "There's something going on in the country, I have to go over there to deal with it."
Since last month, the country has released signals of agricultural tax subsidies, and now the prices of farms and wasteland there are rising every day.
A lot of people have been asking about her recently, and all of them are here to buy the farm.
Lin Siqiao knew that at the current price, she could make several times the profit by reselling it.
But Lin Siqiao is not stupid. How could she give up the profit at this critical juncture?
Wouldn’t it be great to have these lands in hand and receive millions of US dollars in subsidies each year?
Besides, after more than half a year of transformation, these farms have now reached a balance between income and expenditure and are expected to make a profit next year. She would be crazy to sell the land now.
In fact, this time Lin Siqiao went there not just for the agricultural tax subsidy.
Taking into account future development, Lin Siqiao decided to set up an investment company in the country after careful consideration. She has even thought of a name for the company, which is Huaxing.
The company has only one core goal, which is to serve the country through industry and never forget its original intention.
In a few years, when the domestic environment improves, Lin Siqiao will move the headquarters to Beijing.
Lin Siqiao did not explain these in detail, but just gave a general idea. However, after hearing these words, Lu's mother was overwhelmed with emotion.
She had always known that her daughter-in-law was a person with big ideas. In comparison, these little love affairs were really not worth mentioning.
Thinking of this, Mother Lu stopped worrying about it and just told her to take good care of herself.
Lin Siqiao smiled and said yes, and then said, "Mom, when we have the chance in the future, I will bring you to the farm to have a look, and then we can go to Hawaii for vacation together."
"Okay, okay."
Mother Lu never spoiled her children's fun on these matters. Since her daughter-in-law said so, she happily agreed.
At this time, Lu Jianchuan cleared his throat a few times. Seeing her son's eager look, Lu's mother glared at him unhappily and said a few more words before handing the receiver over to him.
"Here, here you go, say a few words."
Lu Jianchuan just stretched out his hand.
Mr. Yao at the side quickly picked up the phone.
"Qiao Qiao, I'm grandpa. Yes, it's me, it's me. I'm in good health. Your grandma is in good health too."
"Okay, okay, it's settled then."
The old man responded cheerfully, and continued talking for several minutes.
When Lu Jianchuan picked up the receiver with great anticipation, Lin Siqiao's slightly anxious voice came from the other end of the line.
"Lu Jianchuan, I have to go to class in five minutes, so that's it for now, I'm hanging up."
After saying that, Lin Siqiao hung up the phone with a snap.
Just like that, Lu Jianchuan paid more than three hundred yuan for the phone bill, but in the end he didn't even get to say hello.
But he has no temper at all.
Time passed quickly, and it was 1976. In late March, Lin Siqiao flew to the country as planned.
Since he had the idea of starting a company, Lin Siqiao began to arrange the rest of the things.
The first issue was the company's registered place. Considering taxes and convenience, Lin Siqiao chose California as the company's registered place, and then began to look for an office building.
After careful selection, Lin Siqiao used the last of his money before the New Year to acquire an office building located in the most prosperous area of the city.
The total area of this office building is about 60,000 square meters and can accommodate 3,000 people at the same time.
After completing the formalities, Lin Siqiao officially changed its name to "Huaxing Building". She no longer took charge of the recruitment matter and handed it over to her special assistant Li Jiachen.
When Li Jiachen saw the benefits offered by Lin Siqiao, he was dumbfounded and asked her several questions in a row.
"Boss, are you serious?"
