"Ha ha"

Madden laughed wildly, as if he had heard a big joke.

Lin Zhichao also laughed, as if he was laughing at Madden's arrogance and arrogance.

After a long time, Madden stopped laughing, and then said contemptuously: "You are different from the Chinese I have seen. Your ability to brag is incredible."

Lin Zhichao responded: "Since Mr. Madden holds such a prejudice, then I will take my leave."

Later, the two broke up unhappy.

After Lin Zhichao left, Old Madden sneered:

"I thought it was worthy of support, but I didn't expect to be so arrogant. This kind of person will only end up losing his last shirt."

In his opinion, Lin Zhichao's words were simply impossible.

First of all, Asia Shipping, a subsidiary of Wheelock Shipping, is a listed company and purchased a considerable number of ships through fundraising in December 1948.

Secondly, shipping has no other funding channels except listing and self-raising funds, which means that banks do not provide loans to shipping.

Finally, a ship often costs millions of Hong Kong dollars (for old ships) or even tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars (for new ships). It is simply a money-losing industry.

Therefore, Ma Deng did not care about Lin Zhichao's lofty ideals at all, let alone take them to heart.

The other side.

After Lin Zhichao returned to the company, he put the unpleasant meeting with Madden today behind him. He had a complete plan for the development of shipping.

Of course, the most important part is to obtain support from HSBC.

If this link is not achieved, he will be in some trouble and may have to open his own bank to seek broader funding channels.

To gain the trust of HSBC, the most important thing is to let them see the credibility and stability of Global Shipping.

These need to be implemented slowly!

Uniqlo clothing company bought the trademark rights of the 'Crocodile' brand from the Hong Kong government for 30,000 Hong Kong dollars. Crocodile clothing was founded in 1911 by Germans in Hong Kong. After the war, it was naturally confiscated by the Hong Kong government and has been there ever since.

Keep this intangible asset in your hands.

Now that someone wants it, the Hong Kong government is naturally willing to take action. And what surprises Lin Zhichao is that the brand is called "Crocodile" brand, not "Crocodile T-shirt".

Fortunately, general manager Zhao Mingyi reacted quickly and said that since the boss said it was called "Crocodile Shirt", he might as well change the name to "Crocodile Shirt" because the name sounded better than "Crocodile Shirt".

Lin Zhixuan thought the same way!

After getting the brand, Lin Zhichao was not in a hurry to open a store. Before that, he needed to strengthen the founding team, redesign the crocodile trademark, and register it.

At the same time, Crocodile T-shirt’s initial plan is to open two stores, one flagship store each in Hong Kong Island and Kowloon. It will not open a third store in the next five years at least, because Hong Kong’s purchasing power is here.

Too much work required preparation, fabric selection, shirt proofing, store selection and decoration, service staff training, etc. So Lin Zhichao simply slowed down and planned slowly, not rushing to put the crocodile shirt on the market.

In the blink of an eye, it is the Spring Festival of another year (1950).

At home in Lantian Yayuan, the Lin family was celebrating the Spring Festival. Thinking about how many people were sleeping on the road outside, Lin Zhichao felt that it was lucky that he came ashore.

Of course, you can also think about it differently: Don’t look at these people sleeping on the road now, in a few decades they will be the envy of others; even if it’s not that far away, how many more will there be in seven, twelve, or sixteen years?

People risk their lives to come to this paradise.

So thinking about it this way, Lin Zhichao will not be too sympathetic to the poor in Hong Kong in this era. They at least have hope in this life.

Once industrialization starts in Hong Kong, these people will at least have something to eat!

On the dining table, there was a sumptuous dinner, surrounded by a family of five, including half-year-old Lin Ruihuan, who was also held by his grandma and couldn't put it down.

As for the nanny Axia, she has already gone home after receiving the money, which can be regarded as a holiday.

Lin Zhichao picked up the wine glass and said happily: "Here, let me toast you all. I wish my mother will live longer and stay younger, I wish Caiyun will be more beautiful, I wish Xiner will give me a good university entrance examination, and I wish Ruihuan grow up healthily."

The three women picked up their own drinks or red wine and looked at Lin Zhichao happily. As the head of the family, everything in the family was created by Lin Zhichao, and naturally their backbone was also Lin Zhichao.

"I wish my son all the best!"

"I wish your husband all your wishes will come true!"

"I wish my brother all the best!"

"Bang" four cups collided.

Lin Ruihuan watched curiously and danced happily.

After taking a sip of the wine, Lin Zhichao said: "In the new year, there is no problem in living in a single-family house on the mountainside. Although this house is not bad, it is too small, and the nanny does not even have a place to live. It is also not soundproof.

!”

Lin Xiner blushed, her brother and sister-in-law did that all the time, and sometimes it was quite painful to torture her.

Tang Caiyun also thinks this is a problem. Her husband has outstanding abilities and likes to torture people. Therefore, she is very supportive of buying a bungalow in the middle of the mountain. After all, the little money is nothing to Lin.

"Have property prices fallen?" Tang Caiyun asked curiously.

"It can be considered a drop. It can only be said to be a slight drop. It is generally in the range of 25 to 35 Hong Kong dollars. It can no longer be sold at a price of 40 Hong Kong dollars per square meter."

This price is already much higher than in previous generations.

You know, the selling price on Sifang Street in Taipei in the previous life was only 20 to 25 Hong Kong dollars per square foot (1954).

Tang Caiyun nodded and stopped asking. She was now gradually getting involved in the family business, mainly because her husband took the initiative to tell her about things in the company. She did not go to the company, so she knew about it remotely.

The next day, the Lin family and the Tang family met to go shopping, shopping, and eating. In this era, only Central was truly prosperous, with all kinds of goods from all over the world.

"Brother-in-law, remember to pay for me later, just tell me you gave it to me!" Tang Caiying quietly came to Lin Zhichao and said.

The Tang family still lived a very "poor" life, probably because Tang Zhongyuan had a lot of debts, so he developed the habit of learning from others; on the contrary, Lin Zhichao was able to spend money and make money.

"Well, just ask your sister! So, do you want to get married as soon as possible?" Lin Zhichao joked in a low voice.

"What a beautiful thought!" Tang Caiying blushed a little this time, and then walked away gently, leaving Lin Zhichao with a beautiful back.

Naturally, the little actions of the two people could not be hidden from others, and everyone turned a blind eye.
