Chapter 113 Sister Amei, You Can't Help Me
After deducting various operating costs, New World Company's profit is approximately 30%.
Over a year, that's a profit of 180 billion euros.
When it reached Jiang Tiansheng, it was 36 billion euros, equivalent to about 340 billion Hong Kong dollars.
This alone could bring him over 10 billion Hong Kong dollars in income.
Moreover, this is still in its early stages, and it generates revenue every year.
In addition, the more users New World has, the more Xiaolingtong phones it sells, and the more money it makes.
If 5000 million PHS phones are sold, and the profit is HK$1000 per phone, that's HK$500 billion in profit.
Jiang Tiansheng never dreamed of this.
A simple mobile phone could bring him such a large profit.
However, it was only because the mobile phone market was just beginning that Xiaolingtong (a type of mobile phone service) was able to get a head start and thus made so much money.
It is estimated that more and more people will join the ranks of mobile phone research and development after next year.
The New World Company meeting lasted for three days before it ended.
Despite owning 20% of New World Company's shares and being its largest shareholder, Jiang Tiansheng's actions are not without consequences.
However, during those three days, very few people came to talk to Jiang Tiansheng.
Even when they speak, it's just a simple greeting.
There's no other reason than that they look down on Jiang Tiansheng.
In their view, Jiang Tiansheng was simply lucky to have developed a mobile phone, which is why he joined their ranks.
Now, they need Jiang Tiansheng to provide a PHS phone, so nothing will happen.
However, once he no longer needs the mobile phone, they will try every means to kick Jiang Tiansheng out of New World Company.
There's no doubt that this is exactly what these foreigners think.
Jiang Tiansheng was well aware of this, but he didn't care. By the time they no longer needed the mobile phones, he would have already grown to a level where they would have to look up to him.
At that point, their concern should be whether Jiang Tiansheng will kick them out of the ranks.
The next day, Jiang Tiansheng was preparing to return to Hong Kong.
However, an event disrupted Jiang Tiansheng's schedule.
"Stop thief!"
As Jiang Tiansheng walked the streets of Paris, he suddenly heard the voices of his fellow countrymen in this foreign land.
"Really tough."
Jiang Tiansheng glanced at Zhengang.
"Yes, Master."
The next second, Zhengang rushed out and subdued the two thieves.
"Thank you, thank you so much."
Two panting Chinese men approached Jiang Tiansheng, their faces filled with gratitude.
"We are all family, you are welcome."
Jiang Tiansheng said with a smile.
"Are you also from China, sir?" the other person asked, looking at Jiang Tiansheng with some surprise.
“I’m not from the mainland, I’m from Hong Kong,” Jiang Tiansheng said, shaking his head slightly.
"So you're a fellow countryman from Hong Kong."
Upon hearing this, the other person's eyes lit up and they said, "Hello, my name is Zhou Wei."
After some investigation, Jiang Tiansheng learned that they were the ones responsible for importing the production line from China.
At that time, everything in China was in a state of disrepair and lacked many things.
"Mr. Zhou, I wonder if the country will introduce power plants?" Jiang Tiansheng asked directly, a thought suddenly occurring to him.
"Oh...? Sir, you're in business?"
Those around looked at Jiang Tiansheng and asked curiously.
"I am not talented, but the Xinghe Group in Hong Kong is mine," Jiang Tiansheng said modestly.
“Xinghe Group, I think I have a vague impression of that. Xiaolingtong, right?” Zhou Wei looked at Jiang Tiansheng, and suddenly a thought flashed through his mind, so he asked.
"That's right, it's a mobile phone."
Jiang Tiansheng nodded.
Unexpectedly, the first thing that made him famous was the mobile phone.
"A power plant, huh..."
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Well, the higher-ups haven't considered this project."
Electricity has always been a fundamental aspect of people's livelihood in the country.
To put it bluntly, countries in later generations have consistently lost money in the electricity sector.
Laying cables deep in the mountains costs a lot of money.
"Mr. Zhou, we have developed a new technology that can reduce the cost of power generation."
Jiang Tiansheng reviewed the current electricity price in China and then said to Zhou Wei, "Mr. Zhou, I remember the current electricity price in China is about 1.6 cents per kilowatt-hour."
"Yes."
Zhou Wei nodded.
This is the price for residential electricity; the price would be even higher for commercial electricity.
“Mr. Zhou, if I were to build a factory here, I would guarantee that I would only charge one cent per kilowatt-hour for residential electricity, and the price would remain unchanged for fifty years,” Jiang Tiansheng said to Zhou Wei with a serious expression.
This is the best opportunity to enter the mainland power market.
"One cent per kilowatt-hour? Mr. Jiang, are you sure?"
Zhou Wei looked at Jiang Tiansheng with a puzzled expression.
Although Zhou Wei was not in charge of power projects, he knew that the power sector was basically losing money.
Even at a price of 1.6 cents per kilowatt-hour, they can't make any money.
However, Jiang Tiansheng said that each kilowatt-hour of electricity only cost one cent, which was quite unusual.
"I am sure."
Jiang Tiansheng nodded seriously.
"Mr. Jiang, I'm sorry, I can't make that decision."
Zhou Wei thought for a moment, then said to Jiang Tiansheng, "However, Mr. Jiang, after I return to China, I will report this matter to my superiors truthfully. As for whether they will accept my report, I cannot guarantee that."
"No matter what, I must thank Mr. Zhou," Jiang Tiansheng said gratefully.
Jiang Tiansheng had been thinking about how to enter the domestic power market, but he never expected to find an opportunity abroad.
Seven days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Originally, Ruan Mei planned to rent the Peninsula Hotel, but Jiang Tiansheng thought about it and finally decided to rent a large cruise ship that could carry 500 people for a three-day sea voyage.
The entire group was overjoyed by Jiang Tiansheng's decision.
Not only do I get a year-end bonus, but I also get to go on a cruise at sea. I'm so happy!
"Chairman, thank you for giving me this job opportunity."
On the deck of the cruise ship, Jiang Tiansheng stood by the handrail, gazing at the sea, when suddenly a voice came from behind him.
"Your name is Fang Ting, right?"
Jiang Tiansheng turned around, glanced at the other person, and then said with a smile.
"Yes, Chairman, my name is Fang Ting," Fang Ting replied excitedly.
She never expected that the chairman would still remember her.
"About what happened last time..."
Jiang Tiansheng paused slightly as he spoke.
"Chairman, what happened last time was my brother's fault. I hope you won't hold it against him," Fang Ting hurriedly admitted.
"No problem"
Jiang Tiansheng smiled and shook his head, saying, "I won't hold it against you."
"Thank you, Mr. Jiang."
Upon hearing this, Fang Ting breathed a sigh of relief.
She was just too worried that if her brother got involved, she would be in real trouble.
Since starting work at the group, Fang Ting's horizons have broadened.
High salary, good benefits, and not much work—where else can you find such a great place?
Why didn't you go out and play?
Jiang Tiansheng looked at Fang Ting and asked.
"It's too noisy inside, I don't really like it."
As Fang Ting spoke, she glanced at Jiang Tiansheng discreetly and said, "I like quiet."
"Do you like quiet?"
Jiang Tiansheng glanced at Fang Ting, then said, "I know a quiet place. Would you like to go check it out with me, Miss Fang?"
"Okay."
Fang Ting nodded and followed behind Jiang Tiansheng.
“This is it”
Jiang Tiansheng led Fang Ting to the top floor of the yacht, where there was only one room.
"Miss Fang, please come in."
Jiang Tiansheng opened the door and invited Fang Ting in.
"Um"
Fang Ting nodded slightly, then followed Jiang Tiansheng into the room.
“Miss Fang, this is the quietest place on the entire cruise ship,” Jiang Tiansheng said, opening the window to reveal a terrace.
Standing on the terrace, you can easily see the decks and terraces on each floor below.
Perhaps it was a deliberate design flaw, but standing below, you could only see the heads of those on the upper level, and nothing else.
"Mr. Jiang, it's really quiet here."
Fang Ting walked over, stood next to Jiang Tiansheng, and said softly.
"Of course, why would I lie to you?"
As Jiang Tiansheng spoke, he suddenly reached out and grabbed Fang Ting's waist. The latter's delicate body trembled as if she had been electrocuted.
However, there was no resistance, as if they had already realized it.
Or perhaps she came to see Jiang Tiansheng with some ulterior motive. Otherwise, if she wanted to express her gratitude, she could have gone directly to Ruan Mei. Why bother with Jiang Tiansheng?
Jiang Tiansheng's large hand covered the area below. Fang Ting bit her lip tightly, holding a wine glass in her right hand and gripping the railing of the terrace with her left. Her gaze drifted into the distance, and she didn't dare to look at Jiang Tiansheng at all.
The weather at sea can change in an instant; a storm can break out in the blink of an eye, and the cruise ship is tossed about incessantly, as if a raging wave could capsize it.
However, this was just an illusion. The cruise ship was very large, and with a skilled helmsman at the helm, it was a close call.
"The weather was fine just a moment ago, how did it change so suddenly?"
"That's just how it is at sea, you'll get used to it."
"The chairman is so generous, he rented a cruise ship to hold the annual meeting."
"Where is the chairman? Have you seen him?"
"I didn't see it. It seemed to have been over there just now."
"I reckon they'll be here around 8 p.m.
Inside the cruise ship's lobby, people were chatting, drinking, singing, and dancing.
Several women sat together chatting, occasionally bursting into laughter.
Then there are a few men playing billiards on the side, or a few people sitting together playing poker, mahjong, or Dou Dizhu, etc.
"Wenjing, have you seen the chairman?"
Ruan Mei saw Cheng Wenjing, walked over, and asked.
"What brings you to the chairman?"
Cheng Wenjing looked at Ruan Mei and asked.
"Nothing's wrong."
Ruan Mei shook her head slightly and said, "I just wanted to ask the chairman if there's anything we can do for him, since we are his secretaries."
"Oh, then I didn't see the chairman."
Cheng Wenjing shook her head.
Ruan Mei: ?
Ruan Mei felt that Cheng Wenjing was hiding something from her in her words.
If nothing's wrong, you won't see the chairman, but if something happens, you'll see him, right?
"By the way, Wenjing, have you seen Fang Ting?" Ruan Mei asked Cheng Wenjing without thinking further.
