Chapter 31

"Pa—"

Bernal received a hard slap in the face.

Ron raised the newspaper to his face again: "Take a good look at it, what's written on it?"

It was a Chinese newspaper. Bernal couldn't understand it at all, and he didn't usually use Chinese. Everyone can speak English to him, but those who cannot speak English are not qualified to stand in front of him.

The newspaper's huge headline -

"Violence escalates - Ms. Lin Wei was shot, suspected of Fu Sheng's public murder, triggering riots."

The newspaper said it was suspicious, but the content was almost equivalent to a conviction.

The author combined the previous so-called insider revelations to conduct an analysis. He believes that Fu Sheng, who is deeply troubled by public opinion, no longer wants to play the cat and mouse game. Adhering to the concept of those who follow me, those who go against me will prosper, and those who hinder their interests will perish. The people were eradicated.

Finally, he commented: The scary thing about this incident is not only Fu Sheng's disregard for human life, but also that after his intentions were exposed, Fu Sheng still dared to commit murder and brazenly showed off his military power and They ignore the people of this land and treat them like fools and ants. They are so arrogant and outrageous.

If the government continues to protect and condone Fu Sheng's behavior, Hong Kong people will lose their most basic right to life.

After learning the contents of the newspaper, Bernal exclaimed: "It's not me, I didn't do this!"

He grabbed the newspaper excitedly and explained to Ron.

Originally he wanted to take action, but his subordinates informed the newspaper of the revelations from an insider, which shocked him into a cold sweat, because these were all the methods he used to deal with that woman, and he didn't know why they appeared in the newspaper. , someone must have leaked the news, and he began to investigate the people around him. How could he dare to take action if he didn't find out the insider?

In all his life, Bernal had never been so wronged, and he couldn't even explain it.

Ron put his hands on the table, took a deep breath, and then sneered: "Who else could do such a stupid thing if not you?" Originally, they wanted to push Bernal out as a target to calm the people. Angry, by the way, he solved Lin Wei's problem. He didn't expect Bernal to be so stupid. Not only did it not happen, but people also completely grasped the reason.

Bernal was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and stepped forward quickly: "It's really not me. Please believe me. I really haven't had time to take action. I didn't find out who the traitor was. I didn't dare to take action at all!"

If he Just tie people up and tie them up. Why make such a big noise? In the end, no one was hurt. No matter how stupid he was, he would never make such a mistake.

But Ron was obviously unwilling to listen to his explanation and waved his hand directly for people to take him out.

Freeman standing aside asked: "Then what should we do next?"

Ron closed his eyes: "Let the situation calm down temporarily, and then... wait." Wait for the heat to pass, wait for people to forget this, wait for her to be no longer in the crowd. Pay attention...

Freeman understands what he means. If he had known now, he should have dealt with it in a low-key manner at the beginning and acted later, so that the situation would not be out of control to this point. But now it is too late to say anything. Mr. Ron at that time was like It is a frightened beast that cannot calm down at all.

However -

Freeman raised his head and said thoughtfully: "But I feel that what Bernal said may be true, maybe he really didn't do it."

Ron raised his head and looked at the other person: "Then you Who do you think it is?"

Freeman asked. Has this woman besides Fu Sheng offended anyone else?

"Isn't she the one who directed and acted?"

...

"The little girl is also smart. She noticed Fu Sheng's malice and knew to take precautions in advance." He Xin put down the newspaper and slowly picked up the tea cup.

Butler Xu Shu said from the side: "It is inevitable that Miss Lin has made some omissions. She does not have enough experience in dealing with these consortiums. It is better for you to use a clever move and feint to make Fu Sheng completely avoid the rat."

He Xinyan put down the cup and smiled. He shook his head: "It's not that easy. Fu Sheng is like a piece of candy that sticks to your teeth. You can't get rid of it. Before she has the ability to compete with her, once she is wiped out by everyone, she will have no choice but to be picked and rubbed by Fu Sheng. She must not take the wrong path and let Fusheng seize the opportunity. Her opponent is not an ordinary person. It is the largest foreign bank in Hong Kong City and the second largest financial group after HSBC. "

"This..." the housekeeper's face. Showing a hint of worry.

"You don't have to worry about her. She is a troublemaker. Although she is not on the same path as A Ying, her methods are just as dark. She also knows that the boy from the Lasu family has joined the gang... An insider broke the news. Haha, even if Fu Sheng has a little doubt. We have to check out the mole." He Xin smiled, obviously very satisfied with Lin Wei's performance.

"Miss Lin probably doesn't know that you helped me with this matter. Will she be frightened and afraid to take action?" Xu Zhong looked a little worried.

"She was frightened by such a small scene?" He Xin's voice was a little colder, "Then she should have just hid when she couldn't get the money. It's stupid to fight Fu Sheng. No matter how much I do, I can't save her." I can't

help

her ... She is Aying's granddaughter. How can she be such a coward and make people laugh when she says it? It’s not wrong. I hope she won’t disappoint me. Hong Kong hasn’t seen such a dazzling woman for a long time. It’s time for someone to break the current stereotype.”

…

When I saw the news of Lin Wei’s accident in the newspaper, the whole family was frightened. .

Lin Wei didn't want them to worry, so she explained that it was a play she found someone to perform, otherwise how could she be unscathed?

Everyone believed it, and Song Ye didn't say anything, and just started to pick her up from work.

Later Lin Wei found out that he had tricked the truth out of Su Tianrui.

It made her think wildly and be sentimental at that time, thinking that the other party had made the same mistake again and was deeply in love with her.

On April 20, 1965, Xiangjiang Chalian Catering Co., Ltd. was officially established.

The registered capital is 1 million, which includes the remaining money from the bank loan, the factory building as an in-kind investment, and the income from the store these days. The remaining 100,000 yuan was made up by Su Tianrui.

"I just said, how could such a good thing happen? Why are you waiting for me here?" Su Tianrui looked like he had been deceived.

"You only have this value." Song Ye's emotionless voice sounded.

"What do you mean? I am the marketing manager. What do you mean I only have this value? In just a few days, I have already contacted more than a dozen stores."

Song Ye said coldly: "You don't need to be the marketing manager. If you want There are franchised stores everywhere, and the phone numbers in the stores are all busy. Anyone can do it without any technical skills.”

"Little brat, who are you with-"

"Stop!" Lin Wei quickly stopped, "Everyone performs their duties. Mr. Su is responsible for market development, Song Ye is responsible for purchasing, and I am responsible for new product development and marketing. Things in the factory Uncle Feng is in charge, and everyone has different divisions of labor. Today we are going to formulate the company's business policy, articles of association, and management rules."

Su Tianrui folded his arms and said dissatisfied: "I found out that you are really partial to him, why should I do it? Are you going to stop when you are talking?"

Lin Wei: "..."

Are you just kids playing house? Childish or not, but also partial...

Although she was right -

she didn't expect Song Ye to be so unkind to Su Tianrui. He was always very friendly as long as it didn't affect his personal interests. She thought Su Tianrui's joining would To make Song Ye happy, this not only frees him from the heavy workload, but also prevents him from causing trouble to society. At the same time, it does not affect his personal income and shares.

She earnestly persuaded Song Ye that their energy should be used in studying. Franchise stores are very energy-consuming. It takes a long time for a mature team to get along. Su Tianrui has his advantages. Besides, the final review is still stuck with Song Ye. Here, it can be regarded as controlling the other party.

Song Ye reluctantly agreed, but he would be angry for a while.

"It's ridiculous. You have no reason. How can you let others favor you?"

Su Tianrui stood up angrily and confronted Song Ye on the other side of the table: "You are a loser with no hair..."

Pa -

Lin Wei directly Throwing away the document in his hand: "Let's fight, let's fight. When you're done, tell me. Let's have another meeting. Will ten minutes be enough for you to fight?"

"..."

Su Tianrui was still standing. He was neither sitting nor standing at the moment. , it took him a long time to hold back: "You still say you are not partial? You still interrupted me when I was talking."

Lin Wei: "..."

She held her forehead and said helplessly: "Are the two of you three years old together? ? Be more mature, you are already a leader, and you have so many people under your control? Do you want me to share the quarrel between you two with them, so that they can see the magnanimity of the two bosses?

" He still looked motionless, but said nothing more.

Su Tianrui snorted coldly and sat down.

"Young man, don't be so angry," Lin Wei poured a glass of water for both of them, "Everything depends on money. Think about the money you get, what grievances can't you bear?"

Su Tianrui still had a tigerish face and hugged Sitting on his chest: "How old are you? Pretend to be like a little grown-up. I'm not as good-tempered as you. Fu Sheng's current newspaper says you are a fraudster. Not only did you forge deposit certificates, but you also said that you slept with the old man of Hengsheng. I just got the loan from Hang Seng, shouldn’t I make a statement to clarify it now?”

“Why do you do all those unnecessary things?” Lin Wei put down the kettle and sat back down, “Once the self-certification starts, there is no end. It's easy to fall into the other party's logical trap and find loopholes in the details of your words. As long as they don't spread rumors about the milk tea shop, don't worry about it. "

This kind of slander can't hurt her at all. She is too experienced in being spread rumors. , not to mention Li Chuan, in her last life she was rumored to be keeping a certain male internet celebrity. She took a group photo and said conclusively about her sexual habits in bed. Although it was clarified at the time, the rumor maker paid and apologized, and people also expressed I was not convinced and felt that this rumor was too outrageous, but as soon as her news appeared, the comments below would make fun of it, using ambiguous and explicit words.

The bad nature of some human groups and their brains are not fully evolved. For them, it is not important whether it is true or false. What is important is that it can satisfy their ugly curiosity.

Can they be changed? It's impossible, then lower your sense of shame. If you don't care, no one can hurt you.

"But why didn't they spread rumors about the milk tea shop?" Su Tianrui was also surprised.

"It will be too late by the time you think about it." Song Ye said coolly.

Before Su Tianrui got angry, Lin Wei explained to him that an insider had leaked the news in the newspaper, killing the milk tea shop in its cradle.

"Can it still be like this..." Su Tianrui was stunned and dumbfounded for a moment, "... you did it yourself? They say you are an old goblin, why do you, a little kid like you, have so many thoughts?"

He paused for a moment . , said: "But why didn't you expect that they would spread rumors about your reputation?"

"To list too many would seem false. Of course, I can only pick the important ones."

"Isn't this important? As a girl, don't you think "My own reputation is not important?"

"Principal reputation? It's so old-fashioned. It's not like I'm a businessman who wants to participate in the election. Why do I care so much? You know, they are so angry that they are exhausted." There is no need to be angry when you use such despicable means."

Su Tianrui was dumbfounded by this rhetoric. He showed a look of complete admiration and finally gave her a thumbs up: "Brilliant!"

Lin Wei's index finger gently lifted the half-tied hair around her neck, hiding her achievements and fame: "Okay, let's get down to business. Now Ms. Ye and Fu Sheng are still in a stalemate. We have to find some sense of presence and enjoy the heat . "

Su Tianrui said speechlessly: "Don't you still dare to fight against them? You almost died, sister!"

"I just want to fight against them to survive. Besides, it's not like I didn't give in. I won't clarify the rumors. Isn't Bo Fusheng's wool excessive?"

Song Ye looked at her and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Lin Wei smiled confidently and said, "Isn't it true that he refuses to pay?"

Soon after, reporter Zhou from the newspaper received a call from Lin Wei. She wanted to make a statement -

Tea Love Milk Tea is very sorry for Fu Sheng's actions. We can no longer prove the authenticity of the promissory note. Hong Kong Fu Sheng, the local appraiser in the city, did not admit it, nor did the British appraiser Fu Sheng. They continued to slander and slander Ms. Lin Wei. Even though she had handed over the promissory note to Ms. Ye Jing'en for charity, their consciences did not change.

Since Fu Sheng is not willing to pay the 100,000 pounds, Cha Lian Milk Tea will do it.

From now on, for every cup of milk tea sold by Tea Love, one cent will be donated to improve education, medical care and infrastructure in Hong Kong City.

Participating stores include not only the main store and 18 franchised stores, but also subsequent franchised stores until the quota of 100,000 pounds is met.

Supervision from the general public is welcome.

Attached are the stores participating in this event:

No. 1X, Chater Road,

Central and Western District, No. 2X, Chun Yuen Street,

Wan Chai District, No. X7, Babington Road, Central

and Western District, No. XX, Qingfeng Street, Eastern District

...

This announcement coincides with the opening of the second batch of franchise stores.

Eat it with the milk tea advertisement on the next page of the newspaper.

"Icy and good mood, delicious food is wonderful, KeKe Tea Love, the grand event is coming, we look forward to your joining."

After charging the advertising fee, the newspaper even exempted Lin Wei from the cost of publishing the statement.

Lin Wei felt that she planned it well. While counterattacking Fu Sheng, she could also gain popularity and advertise.

The first batch of eighteen branches are all carefully selected popular shops to lock in traffic.

As for why Shibajia, as a businessman, Lin Wei couldn't avoid... being a little bit superstitious.

Eighteen, it’s time to get rich. As for the eighteenth level of hell, she ignored it. Including the main store, there are nineteen in total. Longevity and longevity are all good meanings. Anyway, they are blocked at both ends.

She had the right time, the right place, the right people, and no matter how she calculated it, she felt that she was going to have great luck.

The response was indeed good at first, and the morning newspaper sold well. However, before word-of-mouth feedback, it was immediately overtaken by a blockbuster news.

On May 10, 1965, hundreds of Guangdong Trust's depositors went to the Hong Kong Governor's Office to petition, asking for their deposits.

This incident quickly triggered a large-scale run on Chinese banks, and rumors spread like wildfire.

The squeeze crisis has resurfaced, and the scale of the impact is even larger.

Guang'an, Far East, Youyu, Daoheng, Yonglong... Chinese banks suffered heavy losses.

Including Hang Seng Bank, depositors withdrew 10 million of their deposits on the first day.

However, Hang Seng and Standard Chartered Bank jointly issued a statement the next day and the situation was brought under control.

News about this run is in the newspapers every day. The Financial Secretary emphasized that banks have sufficient funds, and managers from HSBC and Standard Chartered also came out to endorse it.

All the banks were scared, and no one knew what the consequences of this run would be.

The citizens' sensitive nerves are constantly being aroused by the British Hong Kong government, and they don't know when they will explode.

Heng Sheng's side was a survivor, and Lin Wei's side was a mistake in decision-making, and was ridiculed by Su Tianrui from time to time.

"Who was so confident back then, looking like someone who was strategizing and winning thousands of miles away?"

Lin Wei made him happy. She had many marketing methods. As long as Fu Sheng was still in the early days, she would have a way to continue to gain popularity.

The result -

a few days later, Fusheng issued a statement saying that it would donate 200,000 pounds to charity in Xiangjiang, but emphasized that this was not money paid to Lin Wei and had nothing to do with her.

This counterattack is not good or bad for Fusheng. It can't save anything. It just proves that he is not short of money, and he also gets some ridicule. He has money but still defaults on his debts. The bosses of foreign companies are really arrogant and shameless.

But for Lin Wei, it's not very beautiful, and she can't catch the heat now.

The most profitable person is Ms. Ye Jingen. It is probably the first time for her to receive so much charity money at once.

Lin Wei thought that after accepting Fu Sheng's 200,000 pounds, she would give up the payment of the 100,000 pounds. As a result, the 200,000 pounds was accepted and the 100,000 pounds was also insisted on, so that Lin Wei and Fu Sheng's kidnapping The relationship had a long-tail effect, and Fu Sheng was so angry that he smashed things again. He was really a rotten person.

Lin Wei quickly formed a team and initially formulated a professional and complete set of processes. Leaving aside the factory workers and logistics personnel, the company headquarters already has more than 40 employees, including 14 people in the marketing department, 8 people in the marketing department, and cost There are 8 people in the audit department, 7 people in the quality control department, 3 people in the finance department, and 3 people in the administration department.

The space on the second floor was no longer enough for them, so they rented the two-story residence upstairs and renovated it.

The team still needs to work together, and people and new departments need to be added one after another. However, after the implementation of standard procedures, work efficiency has been improved and their work has become much easier. They have even planned to gradually implement a weekend system, from single days to large and small weeks. During weekends, only on-duty staff are left upstairs in the company.

The weekend system is unique in today's Hong Kong city, and the recruitment advertisements also highlighted the focus, attracting many people, which also allowed Lin Wei's team to be quickly established.

However, many imitations and competing products soon appeared on the market, such as CoCo Snow Bouncer.

In the conference room, Lin Wei bit her straw and drank her competitor's milk tea.

"The price is half cheaper than ours, and the taste is too sweet. We did a blind test and found that it is indeed not as good as ours, but there are still many people who want to buy it cheaper."

"Normal," Lin Wei took a sip and pushed the milk tea aside, " Customers sometimes do not need to subdivide this difference. Similar substitutes can satisfy them. There will be more such milk tea shops in the future. We currently need to do a good job in quality control, ensure quality, and promote the progress of snacks. Second, Increase marketing, improve brand image, build a brand moat, and differentiate from competing products.

"Why do I taste the same?"

Everyone glared at Su Tianrui.

Su Tianrui didn't care about this shameless person, and said leisurely: "I'm just not lucky. If I had succeeded at that time, I would have been the one to compete with Cha Lian."

Everyone almost thought they heard wrong, this guy was caught stealing. Yes, I actually had the nerve to say it.

Even the younger brother couldn't stand it anymore and stabbed him in the back.

Lin Wei looked at him deeply, sighed and shook his head: "Unexpectedly, there is Su Lang in the world."

How can there be such a fool like you in the world?

Pfft—

everyone laughed.

Su Tianrui: "..."

Can you still curse like this?

When everyone stopped laughing, Lin Wei continued the meeting: "The next plan is to develop the milk tea market in Kowloon and the New Territories. The milk tea shop will also add some snacks, French fries, egg tarts, burgers, pudding, fried chicken..."

Lin Wei After saying that, everyone looked at her in confusion, what are French fries? What's a burger?

Lin Wei asked Wen Jiayue to send the information. The milk tea shop originally sold some desserts and snacks. Because many people like to gather in the milk tea shop at night to watch TV, the snacks were sold reasonably well, but now that there are competing products , not only milk tea needs to be upgraded, snacks also need to be upgraded accordingly.

She had also thought before that it was too complicated, but now it is different from the milk tea shops of later generations. Compared with milk tea shops, they are a bit closer to KFC and McDonald's. Taking into account the current situation in Hong Kong City, she has been doing this for a while. After conducting market research, we found that it can actually be done. After all, KFC and McDonald's have not yet entered Hong Kong.

Later, the person in charge of new product research and development brought some samples for everyone to taste.

High-sugar, high-carbohydrate, and fried foods have a fatal attraction for people nowadays, and they are quickly eaten away.

After eating, everyone looked eagerly at the person who brought them a sample. Everyone got a little bit, which was not enough to eat.

"Is there more?" Only Su Tianrui asked.

Wen Jiayue said with a smile: "So you are unlucky? Mr. Su, you are very lucky. What a blessing to be picked up by our Mr. Lin."

There was another burst of laughter.

Lin Wei stopped their teasing. It was different from usual. She usually held meetings very quickly and asked everyone to stop talking nonsense. A meeting rarely lasted more than forty minutes. Today, because of a new plan, it was delayed by a few minutes. .

As a result, at the end of the meeting, they got news -

Hang Seng suddenly announced that Ms. Lin Wei was upgraded to Hang Seng's VIP customer, with loans of less than 5 million without any collateral.

The secretary placed the things sent by Hengsheng in front of Lin Wei. Lin Wei looked at the exquisite blue letterhead and gift box in front of her, and was a little stunned for a moment.

This means that the squeeze crisis has completely subsided.

Was it really successful?

It feels a bit like a dream. It turns out that history is not unchangeable. The gears of destiny have turned around. I don’t know where the surviving Hengsheng will go.

"Demon! What did you do?" Su Tianrui was completely shocked.

Five million in unsecured low-interest loans. If he had this ability, who in the family wouldn't look down upon him? Nor did he ask his mother to borrow money a few days ago.

Five million!

Lin Wei didn't hear Su Tianrui's words.

Thinking about how to spend five million.

She curled her lips unconsciously, and her smile gradually spread to the corners of her eyes. Her clothing production line was also established -
