Chapter 308 Ning Xiaochu Goes Public
School started in a blink of an eye, and the bulletin board was filled with recruitment advertisements again.
The recruitment of new members by the Baohualou and Lianzhong groups is particularly eye-catching.
I still remember that during the winter vacation, everyone said that the Lianzhong group led by Yue Ning could only go to the mainland, but Ning Xiaochu led by Yang Zhijie could go to Japan, Singapore and Taiwan.
This summer, the members of the Lianzhong group went to Europe and the United States respectively. The Ning Xiaochu group was busy like a dog. The team leader Yang Zhijie was the general manager of Ning Xiaochu when he was in school. After graduation, Sophie went to Japan to study. Although she still held the title of president of Baohua Building, the actual affairs were basically in the hands of Yang Zhijie. He became the operations director of Baohua Building Management Company. Chen Zheng succeeded Yang Zhijie as the general manager of Ning Xiaochu. The other two classmates also held important positions in Ning Xiaochu.
Ning Xiaochu is about to be listed on Hong Kong City Club. The entire Ning Xiaochu team, even the team members who have not yet graduated, have been busy with the listing preparations throughout the summer.
Today, Hong Kong's economy is active, and all major foreign banks and companies are vying for graduates from the University of Hong Kong. But how many of them will be able to become senior executives with high salaries and equity incentives right after graduation?
Zhao Jiaying and Pang Qiang from Lianzhong Group, Li Xue and Zhang Xu from Ningxiaochu Group, introduced the advantages of their respective projects to everyone.
Yue Ning rode over and propped himself up on the ground: "When you introduce yourself, don't just pick out the good points, Fatty! Tell me how I forced you to argue with the Germans and slam the table. Ah Xue, you also have to tell everyone about the hardships of going to class, opening a new Ning Xiaochu restaurant, and writing a paper. I tell you, once you get on this pirate ship of mine, it will be very difficult to get off."
"Don't Hong Kong people advocate the spirit of 'Under the Lion Rock'? Hardworking, sticking together, and never giving up. Why should I be afraid of hardship?" someone said.
"That's right, you look down on me!"
“…”
"Young students, welcome to join our team." Yue Ning apologized quickly.
"Ningning, will you still play the pipa and sing at the welcome party?"
The freshmen became excited: "Ah! Ah! Can we see Ningning sing in person?"
"Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. How about I sing Su Shi's 'Water Melody: When Will the Bright Moon Rise'?" Yue Ning said to everyone with a smile.
"OK!"
Yue Ning waved goodbye to everyone and went to Teacher Wan’s office.
When she walked into the office, she saw Professor Ma and Professor Wu were both there. She greeted them, "Hello, teachers!"
Professor Ma looked at her and smiled: "Why did you make such a big fuss when you went to Japan?"
Yue Ning took out a folder from her bag and placed it on Professor Wan's desk: "Teacher, the paper has been revised."
Professor Ma first picked up the document. On the cover was a study of Japanese women's employment during a period of rapid economic growth. He looked at it and asked, "Are there any other papers?"
"I came here with the teacher's title, but without a thesis, I wouldn't dare to come to see the teacher!" Yue Ning sat down.
Professor Wan laughed: "Just now, the two of them were envious of me, saying that I found a student who has his own research project, his own funding, and can recruit students on his own. They are just sitting there and collecting benefits and fame."
"We are both jealous of each other," said Professor Wu.
“You are even more jealous,” Professor Wan said with a smile, “She has to finish her Ph.D. with me!”
Yue Ning originally wanted to just get a master's degree, but with such good teachers in Hong Kong, it would be a bit of a disadvantage not to get a doctorate degree.
She has always been very noisy, and the teachers more or less know what she did during the holidays. There are some details that the teachers still don't understand, so I will talk to her in detail now.
After talking about her business and the gains from her trip to Japan, Yue Ning and Professor Ma discussed the situation of Vietnamese refugees. The closed refugee camps can indeed scare away some Vietnamese who want to come to Hong Kong to work. Moreover, when various countries were approving refugees, they were always forced by Southeast Asian countries to give them priority. Now the speed here in Hong Kong has also increased.
Among tens of thousands of people, there are always some who are good at cooking, and Yue Ning has taken a fancy to a few of them. She hopes that by opening this loophole, she can give these people a chance to stay in Hong Kong City.
She asked Cai Meiyue, and Aunt Meiyue's answer was that the hole could not be opened.
It just so happened that there were vacancies in France and Spain, so these people took Yue Ning's letter of recommendation and went to Pierre and Jose's restaurant, which was reported by local TV stations and HTV.
The elderly and the weak had no way of enduring the difficult journey on the sea. Most of the refugees were young and middle-aged people, and it happened to be a period of rapid economic development. PN alone employed more than 2,000 workers in the entire refugee camp. The small household appliances produced by this factory were sold from the port city to Europe and the United States.
As Europe and the United States have repeatedly set up barriers to Japanese manufacturing and domestic labor costs in Japan have risen, Japan's low-end manufacturing industry has been shifting abroad, with Southeast Asia being the first choice, especially Thailand.
Now they find that this factory in Gangcheng is more profitable than their factory in Thailand.
In addition to the low labor costs, refugees who have lost their freedom can work and earn money, and their productivity is higher than that of Thai workers. They plan to invest in another camera assembly plant.
With big customers like PN, this model will work and the pressure on the port city will be reduced.
Professor Ma is not only a scholar, but also a school board member and a Justice of the Peace in Hong Kong. He said, "Ningning! You may become the youngest Justice of the Peace in Hong Kong."
"I don't know if she is the youngest Justice of the Peace. But with Ning Xiaochu's listing, Ning Ning will definitely be the youngest billionaire in Hong Kong." Professor Wu looked at her.
"Teacher Wu, you are a scholar, but why do you have such a strong smell of money?" Professor Ma said to Professor Wu.
"I study the market. I am not money-minded. How can I teach good students?" said Professor Wu.
"That's right." Professor Ma remembered something. "Ningning, Ning Xiaochu is the brand with the lowest valuation under Baohua Building. Why did you only list Ning Xiaochu? If Baohua Building was listed as a whole, your wealth would be even more impressive."
Yue Ning laughed, "Because only Ning Xiaochu can fully realize standardization and industrialization. As long as the ability is sufficient, thousands of stores can be opened. Baohualou and Ningyan are brands that cannot be completely copied. They must rely on the chef's skills. Baohualou has very high requirements for taste, while Ningyan goes for color, fragrance, taste, shape, environment, service, and personalization, which is very complicated. Although we have now achieved a virtuous cycle of chef training, it is difficult to train a good chef, and it is even more difficult to train a chef with cultural literacy who can run Ningyan well. So my positioning for Baohualou is that the upper limit is 30 to 40 stores, including the Chinese restaurant of Hong'an Hotel in cooperation with Hong'an, and Ningyan is estimated to have only a dozen stores in the end. Baohualou and Ningyan only have 50 to 60 stores together, but the manpower, energy and cost required are dozens of times that of Ning Xiaochu."
Professor Wan smiled and said, "You know that Japanese fast food brand that specializes in beef rice, right? The secret of its success is consistent taste, single variety, cheap and delicious, and fast delivery."
Professor Ma shook his head: "It seems that different professions are like different worlds. I can only wish Ningning to become a new billionaire."
Ning Xiaochu brand under Baohualou was listed on Gangchenghui. At that time, there were four stock exchanges in Gangcheng. These four exchanges had different listing standards and trading hours. Among them, Gangchenghui was the oldest and had the highest requirements for listed companies. Ning Xiaochu, which was established for more than two years, was able to be listed on Gangchenghui, which represents the strength of Ning Xiaochu.
At this time, the Hang Seng Index of Hong Kong Sihui Composite Index had fluctuated downward to a low of 150 points after the stock market crash in 1973, and then climbed all the way to break through the previous high again, reaching 1,800 points. The stock market was booming, and high-quality companies like Ning Xiaochu were snapped up as soon as they were listed. The issue price of HK$1.2 reached the highest point of the day, rising to HK$17.43, and fell slightly to HK$17.21 at the close.
Everyone has been optimistic about Ning Xiaochu, but they didn't expect it to be so crazy. The net worth of the Yue family's grandparents and grandchildren actually exceeded 200 million. The second largest shareholder of Ning Xiaochu, Lide Food, also rose by 21% due to the surge in Ning Xiaochu, further pushing up Cui Huiyi's net worth. Cui Huiyi's net worth has followed Fu Danqin and become the second richest woman in Hong Kong, with Yue Ning ranked third.
It can only be said that behind such madness, there is a crisis. Yue Ning believes that his wealth is just an imaginary number.
For people in Hong Kong, this is the charm of the city, full of opportunities.
Half a year later, Cui Huiyi was admitted to the hospital. Hong Kong newspapers and television stations reported that her father was the heir to the Qiao family and her mother was the lucky second richest woman in Hong Kong.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Cui Huiyi gave birth to a boy. Yue Ning carried a lunch box and went to the hospital with Qiao Junxian to see her little nephew.
Cui Huiyi was lying on the bed, Qiao Junshen was sitting beside her and wiping her sweat, Cui Huiyi asked: "Can we turn on the air conditioner?"
"You are sweating because of giving birth. The temperature is over 20 degrees, it's not hot at all." Old Mrs. Qiao said to her while holding the child.
Ye Yingyi brought a hot towel, pulled out Cui Huiyi's arm, and wiped her arm: "Wipe it with a hot towel, it will feel better. When I gave birth to Jun Shen, it was still summer, and I almost went crazy. If my mother hadn't been here, I would have wanted to take a shower. Be patient, you must do a good job of confinement after childbirth."
"Yes! Listen to your mother-in-law and don't do anything rash." Cui Huiwen said to her sister.
Seeing Yue Ning, Cui Huiyi asked, "I want to eat, Ningning, have you made me some goose liver rice?"
Yue Ning shook her head: "My aunt and grandma told me that I can only eat light food on the first day after giving birth. I made steamed fish and vegetable and lean meat porridge for you."
"Don't eat too much oil on the first day..."
Cui Huiyi said aggrievedly: "I finally gave birth, and I feel my appetite has suddenly improved. Why can't I eat this or that?"
"Don't take too much tonic in the first two weeks, you must eat light food." Cui Huiwen, who has experienced it, said, "Don't be ungrateful for what you have. I don't have a mother, I don't understand, and my mother-in-law doesn't dare to say much, so I ate whatever I wanted, and my milk blocked up and it hurt like hell."
Qiao Junshen opened the lunch box: "Listen to my sister."
Yue Ning went to look at the baby, and the old lady said softly, "Shan Shan, let's let auntie hold the baby."
Yue Ning took the baby and sat with Qiao Junxian. She carefully compared the baby with her brother and sister-in-law. She said, "Shanshan looks more like her sister."
"show me."
Yue Ning heard the voice and looked up, and saw the nanny pushing Cui Jiachang in.
Old Mrs. Qiao came over and picked up the child, saying, "Shanshan, grandpa is here, let's let him take a look."
Cui Jiachang looked down at the child and saw that the child really looked like a daughter and was very majestic.
I remember when Huiyi was born, he looked at the child and felt very lost. With such a handsome appearance, it would have been better if it was a boy.
Hearing Mrs. Qiao calling the child "Shan Shan", he asked, "Did Uncle pick a name for the child? What is it?"
Cui Huiyi, who was drinking porridge, swallowed the porridge in her mouth and said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "Xiang Chengshan."
Cui Jiachang couldn't believe his ears: "What...what?"
