A pile of scrap metal, and Xing Baohua was even asked to go and check the quality himself.
He doesn't have the time or inclination to look into it; he trusts that the quality of his older brother's goods is top-notch.
This matter will be handled by Secretary Dong. She will contact her hometown first, and then pick up the goods when they arrive at the port.
Secretary Dong contacted the first secretary and said that the boss had bought some scrapped equipment from Er Mao and was preparing to remelt it for steelmaking.
When this got around, people really thought it was some kind of old, obsolete equipment.
Xing Baohua suddenly remembered that he should also ask Secretary Dong to contact Wei Laisong and ask Zhang Gang if he wanted any scrap metal.
Wei Laisong asked how many tons, but Secretary Dong had no idea! He just said it might be several ships.
To put that into perspective, several ships would require at least several thousand tons. It just so happens that Wei Laisong has a few childhood friends from his compound working at Shougang.
It doesn't necessarily have to be given to Zhang Gang. Lu Yali can handle it and add a few dozen yuan per ton. Tens of thousands of tons of scrap iron can generate millions in pure profit!
It's just a matter of making a phone call and talking.
Wei Laisong hung up the phone and then called Lu Yali again, arranging to meet at the usual place that evening, following the usual rules: get things done first, then talk business.
Lu Yali also felt that the money came too easily, but she was missing a reliable person. However, she immediately thought of her cousin.
Wang Dalu is busy developing in Japan, and it is said that he has already opened up markets in several cities.
At this point, we need to transfer him back to the market in his workplace.
Fortunately, Wei Laisong said that he was responsible for contacting his childhood friend from Shougang Group to arrange the railcars, and all he had to do was hand over the documents and get paid.
It won't take more than a few days.
The next day, Lu Yali contacted Wang Dalu and asked him to prepare a week to come back and help her.
Wang Dalu agreed without hesitation. In Japan, apart from leading translators to develop the market in the early stages, he basically had nothing to do after the business expanded.
He usually just checks inventory in the warehouse, and in the evenings he leads a group of business elites to karaoke.
It's said that even scrap metal takes twenty days to a month to process, so Wang Dalu arranged his work as early as possible.
He still doesn't know what chores he's supposed to help his cousin with.
Xie Yingying, who was far away in Daying, received a call from Wang Weibao. She was a little puzzled and then handed the phone to Xing Baohua.
"Boss, the TV station at Columbia Pictures headquarters wants to send a financial news team to record and interview you," Wang Weibao said from Hong Kong.
Actually, this matter should have been discussed between Columbia President Robert Iger and Xing Baohua. Why was Wang Weibao asked to talk about it?
In Colombia, everyone knows that Wang Weibao is Xing Baohua's spokesperson.
If you need anything, it's more reliable to ask Wang Weibao. Besides, if you ask him for help too often, isn't that respecting his rights?
As Xing Baohua listened to the phone call, his brows furrowed slightly. He had a lot to say about him meddling, but he didn't say it, as a way of saving face for him.
"I don't need to follow up with interviews. Besides, just do your job well," Xing Baohua said, giving Wang Weibao a direct message.
I don't know if this person didn't listen or what, but then said, "ATV's financial program also wants to go to London to do a follow-up report on you."
"Didn't you understand what I just said?" Xing Baohua said with a dissatisfied tone.
"Well, it's mainly because ATV invited Director Zhou to be the host, and the matter was reported to me, so I didn't dare to make the decision myself." Wang Weibao's tone carried a hint of grievance.
I understand what you just said, but Sect Leader Zhou gets paid and can go out and have fun, and you two won't be lonely either. Isn't that a great thing?
Xing Baohua said to Wang Weibao, "Hand over your work now. Everything at headquarters and in Hong Kong is arranged. Go on vacation and come back to work when you've thought things through."
After saying that, he hung up the phone. Wang Weibao was taken aback when he heard the busy tone, then shook his head with a wry smile.
He first booked two tickets to the Maldives for himself, then called his deputy in to give him some instructions, made a phone call to a girl, told her to pack her bags, and began his "official" vacation.
With Wang Weibao on vacation, the matter in Colombia was put on hold. It was no use talking to anyone else; you couldn't get around Wang Weibao.
The Hong Kong branch does have someone who can speak up, but they don't care about anything.
It's probably hopeless to follow Xing Baohua's advice and do a financial report through legitimate channels.
And what about the irregular ones? Many newspapers and two television stations in Hong Kong have already sent people over there.
Unable to find Xing Baohua, they could only rely on local financial news to reprint it back to Hong Kong.
The information is unreliable; most of it is nonsense and doesn't make any sense.
The foreign exchange market always keeps people in suspense; after the pound broke through 1.96, it stopped rising.
However, Xing Baohua cut his losses at 1.94, but the price on the chart was 1.95.
It was one point more than he expected, but that wasn't a big deal. There are times when you slip three times, let alone just one point.
He didn't set a stop-loss order, so one or ten points didn't matter to him. In crucial moments, speed is key.
Now that we have a large sum of money in hand, let's wait for it to rise by two yuan.
Xing Baohua wasn't in a hurry about this, and since a lot of information hadn't been released yet, the market didn't fluctuate much.
But behind the scenes, a storm was brewing, though ordinary people were unaware of it.
Xing Baohua also learned about some things through our special channels and verified many things that were happening.
Once the wall between East and West Germany falls, the Deutsche Mark will appreciate significantly, and Xing Baohua's cross-currency strategy will work. From then on, the Great Eagle pound will never return to its previous level, and it will not return to two dollars for at least ten years.
But this time it will hit the pound sterling at its lowest level, either around 1.4 or around 1.2.
