Chapter 388: Able to bend and stretch
Lei Juekun originally wanted to find an appropriate time to have a good talk with Yin Jun. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
But I didn't expect Le Yiling to be a resolute person, and on the third day after announcing the acquisition of Kowloon Motor Bus, he had already called and said that a board meeting was going to be held on the morning of the fourth day.
At this moment, Lei Juekun couldn't prepare slowly.
He had already inquired about Le Yiling, who held a press conference two days ago, and found that she was not only close to Yin Jun, but more importantly, she was a strong woman herself.
Although Le Yiling is only 20 years old, she is very decisive and ruthless in doing things, and except for Yin Jun, she seems to have no feelings for others at all, very indifferent.
If such a person comes to Kowloon Bus, what kind of consequences will it have, Lei Juekun doesn't need to think much about it.
So he hurriedly launched the relationship, and through his connections in the entertainment industry, he invited Liang Shuyi to come forward and help ask Yin Jun out for a light meal.
Originally, Lei Juekun wanted to invite Yin Jun to eat alone, but what he didn't expect was that Yin Jun came with a woman.
When he saw Le Yiling's beautiful but basically expressionless face, Lei Juekun's smile was stunned.
"Boss Lei, because I think there are some things that you may need to communicate in advance later, so I took the liberty of bringing my sister over, I think you won't mind, right?" Yin Jun said so politely when he shook hands with him.
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm still thinking that our old man will come to dinner, Miss Le may not want to come, now it's just right, let's have a meal together, it's so familiar." Lei Juekun said with a simple smile.
You're all called "my sister", can I still say that it's not convenient for her to come?
It seems that what others said is that Yin Jun is the same as his sister to Le Yiling, and this is really the case.
God knows why this little woman was so lucky that she was able to climb such a big tree as Yin Jun.
Le Yiling nodded to Lei Juekun, "Yes, I have to ask Mr. Lei to cooperate more in the future, otherwise it will not be easy for Kowloon Bus to take care of it." ā
"I didn't say that. Lei Juekun pretended not to understand Le Yiling's words, patted his chest and said: "Our Lei family has been in Kowloon Bus for decades and has rich experience, and the people here are all old people, all of them are people who keep to themselves and work hard, Miss Le can rest assured." ā
In the face of Lei Juekun's counterattack, Le Yiling also smiled faintly and did not argue with him.
In her opinion, what's the use of saying a few words of?
We hold a 51% stake in Kowloon Bus, which is the biggest reliance, what kind of connections you have, all of them are worthless, as long as I give them a job, they have to listen to me, not you.
Xiangjiang people, but the most practical.
Sitting in the western restaurant of the Mandarin Hotel, Lei Juekun said with a smile, "Jun Shao, in the restaurant of the Mandarin Hotel, the French cuisine of this restaurant is the best, especially the foie gras, which is the most delicious. You'll have to try it later. ā
Yin Junxin said, will I tell you that foie gras is the fatty liver of the goose, which is directly fed with a tube inserted into the esophagus of the goose, and then you can get such a fat foie gras?
People in Europe and the United States say that it is disgusting for Chinese people to like to eat animal offal, but in fact, such behavior is even more disgusting, right?
"I'm not going to eat that, just give me a lamb chop. Yin Jun said to the beautiful waitress waiting next to him.
The current waitress is still dressed in relatively old-fashioned clothes, far less dazzling than in the high-end hotels in the future, when the waitress wears a glossy vest above and slim straight trousers underneath.
"I want a five-ripe steak. Le Yiling said.
"Then I'll ask for a seafood set. Lei Juekun said with a smile.
By the time the waiter went down, the other waiter had already picked up the bottle and was about to pour them an appetizer of red wine.
"He doesn't want alcohol, just give him a glass of juice. After the waiter poured himself red wine, Le Yiling blocked Yin Jun's cup and commanded.
"Yes!"
The waiter nodded, then turned around and went to get the juice.
This kind of waiter in a big hotel is good for this, and they will absolutely obey your legitimate request.
Lei Juekun looked at Le Yiling's words and actions, and felt that this woman seemed to be reminding herself of how close her relationship with Yin Jun was, it was like a family.
To say that Yin Jun is the kind of man who is at the mercy of others, of course Lei Juekun will not believe it, how can such a smart genius, such a man who quietly instigated so many well-planned acquisitions, be a person who will be at the mercy of women?
He was not disgusted with Le Yiling's actions and did not stop them, which can only show one problem, that is, Yin Jun trusts Le Yiling very much, just like the well-known Yin Jun did to Guan Zhilin.
It doesn't seem easy!
Lei Juekun felt a little anxious in his heart.
But he has been in business for decades, and he still has this calmness.
When the dishes came up, while eating, Lei Juekun first talked about the recent film circle in Xiangjiang and his Golden Princess Cinema.
The Golden Princess Cinema Line was established in August, and it has been about three months now, and the business is not very good.
The reason is that there are only two film companies with the most production capacity in Xiangjiang, Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, and the films produced by these two companies occupy more than 80% of the market share of Xiangjiang.
Some of the remaining 20% are still being screened in theaters such as Anle and the Great Wall, but in fact, not much is eaten by Princess Jin alone.
From its opening to the present, Golden Princess Cinemas has been losing money every month.
For such a situation, Lei Juekun has long been reminded, and those who can join in know the difficulty.
Therefore, for the time being, for a year and a half, everyone can still hold on, and if there is more time, I am afraid they will have to find their own way out.
"I think that if you want to do a good job in a cinema chain, you should have your own film company like Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers, and use your own movies as the main force, so that you can have a long-term way out. Jun Shao, what do you think?" After speaking, Lei Juekun summed it up like this.
"Good idea. Yin Jun nodded, but didn't say much.
"But there are not many film talents in Xiangjiang, and the good ones are basically divided. Lei Juekun sighed, "To be honest, if it weren't for Jun Shao, you already have so much net worth, I would definitely hire you over with a lot of money to help me set up a film company...... Whether it's your script writing or your ability to recognize people, in the Hong Kong film and television industry, it is one of the best!"
"Mr. Shao, Mr. Zou, Miss Liang, and Uncle Qiu have all asked you this question, but I still haven't agreed. Yin Jun said, "I don't like to be bound by one thing, it's better to do things freely." ā
Lei Juekun said: "This also requires the capital to be able to do things freely, only geniuses can be free and comfortable." ā
"Let's not talk about that. Yin Jun smiled, "I know what Boss Lei asked me to come over for dinner today, so we can talk openly and honestly." ā
As soon as he heard this, Lei Juekun perked up, put down his knife and fork, and his face became solemn.
Whether the ancestral inheritance of the Lei family can be continued, this is something that Lei Juekun cares about very much, and of course he must take it seriously.
"First of all, the chairman of Kowloon Motor Bus, will be held by Miss Lok Yiling, and this will not change. Yin Jun got straight to the point.
Lei Juekun nodded and did not speak.
Such a decision was already expected by him, if Yin Jun bought Kowloon Bus but did not take the position of chairman, it would be strange.
Yin Jun continued: "As for the position of managing director, if Boss Lei can promise us a few conditions, then we can leave it to you, and entrust you to manage the daily operation of the company." However, in terms of finance and personnel, we will send people to settle in, which involves a larger capital movement and personnel changes, and we need to discuss with the chairman before making a decision. ā
"Say it! Lei Juekun said very calmly.
Yin Jun nodded to Le Yiling, and Sister Le said, "First, Boss Lei should remember what I said at the press conference." I need to make several bus routes from Central, Sheung Wan, Tsim Sha Tsui, Mong Kok, Kowloon and other areas to Tin Shui Wai, Yuen Long, New Territories, and I hope to complete this plan within two months and carry out trial operation within four months. ā
"I've never done it so fast before, let alone so many. Lei Juekun smiled bitterly, "Miss Le, you don't think this will work." Let's start with a route from Tin Shui Wai to the side of the Star Ferry in Tsim Sha Tsui. Build this momentum first, and then start adding new lines when the conditions allow. ā
"This line is good, but there is another one that has to go directly to the metro station in Admiralty or Central. Le Yiling said, "Don't say you can't do it, if you can't do it, then we can't cooperate." ā
Since the opening of the Cross Harbour Tunnel in '72, Yau Tsim Mong has been able to directly connect with Hong Kong Island, but because the cross-harbour tunnel buses are more expensive and the frequency is limited, many people are still used to taking the Star Ferry.
But Leyiling insisted on making such a line.
Lei Juekun himself is a bus company, a construction industry, and a housing agent, so he can understand what Le Yiling means.
This is to resolutely raise the grade of the property in Tin Shui Wai.
I can go directly to work in Central or Admiralty by car from home, do you think my house is very convenient?
Although Lei Juekun felt that according to the kind of poor and remote place in Tin Shui Wai, it was impossible to build any house to make a high-end housing estate, but at this time, he would not argue with Le Yiling.
Because this land was bought by Yin Jun, Lei Juekun knew that it was mostly because Yin Jun wanted to develop this large area of land, so his Kowloon Bus was in bad trouble and changed hands.
Since this is the most important reason to buy Kowloon Bus, Yin Jun categorically has no reason to make concessions in this regard.
If he really wants to give in, he can only give in to Lei Juekun, otherwise he can say goodbye to the daily management of Kowloon Bus.
Before Lei Juekun came, he had thought about this matter, but now that he saw Le Yiling being so tough, he could only choose to give in: "There are many things to do on the line, and within five months, I will strive to make a line to reach the vicinity of the Tsim Sha Tsui Star Ferry." Within eight months, I was trying to make a route to Central. ā
The bus route is opened, and it is definitely not a route that you take for granted, and you can start driving to pull people and passengers tomorrow.
First of all, I have to apply to the government transportation department and say that I want to open a line to relieve the traffic pressure or make it easier for people to travel.
Under normal circumstances, the transportation department gives the green light to public transportation, so it is not a difficult task.
With their permission, this was the most troublesome thing to design along the route.
In fact, the bus station and the subway station have the same meaning, because the crowd waiting for the bus and getting off the bus will be a large flow, which will inevitably give rise to a series of surrounding commercial facilities, which is convenient for people to take the bus and transfer to use, so the station will inevitably form a prosperous area next to it, but the prosperity of the bus station is much lower than the subway station.
Therefore, wherever it is opened, it is all exquisite, and it is also pursued by many people.
For example, if there is a bus stop at the entrance of my estate, then my price will be more expensive than if there is no bus stop, and if there are two or three bus stops, then wait for the price to increase by hundreds!
For such housing estates, everyone is more and more flocking to them.
Therefore, there are so many dozens or hundreds of housing estates along the way, where you open the station, there will be more room for price increases.
Especially those housing estates that are about to open or are about to be built, they want to put the bus stop there for them.
How to balance the interests of all parties, try to make it convenient to travel, and not offend others, this is also a headache.
But even if you finally set the route, the traffic management will still come up with their opinions, and maybe there will be a big change, which will have to break the plan and start over, so it will be a very time-consuming task.
There are many such difficulties.
Therefore, Lei Juekun took 5 months to make a line and start operation, which is really not a delay.
Le Yiling calculated the time, nodded and said: "It must be completed on time, and three routes must be planned at the same time, such as to Ho Man Tin Mountain, Kadoorie Mountain, Yau Ma Tei...... and so on, and it will start operating in 81 years at the latest. ā
"Good. "Lei Juekun is also very single, since he has already agreed to the front, then don't twist and pinch the back, otherwise it is better to work against Le Yiling at the beginning.
"The start and end times of buses on these lines must be earlier and extended. "The first shift can be operated at 5 a.m., and the last bus can be collected at 12 p.m., which is convenient for residents along the way." ā
"Good!"
Lei Juekun frowned, but he still agreed.
For Le Yiling, a woman who doesn't ask about difficulties and only seeks results, he is jealous in his heart.
But now there is no way, people are under the eaves, how can they not bow their heads.
If you can bend and stretch, you are a big husband!
