Chapter 360, Work Report, Mainland Branch

Time, evening.

Xixi was already impatient. Although everyone else was in the box on the second floor, she kept walking around the street outside the restaurant. The range of the sloping circle was quite large, and she was walking back and forth around the entire sidewalk. Such an exaggerated movement was not surprising that many pedestrians around could not help but glance at it curiously, but she just couldn't stop.

Why haven’t you come yet? Why haven’t you come yet? While walking around the circle, this sentence has been nagging in Xixi’s heart countless times. But even after nagging for a hundred times, Xixi has already continued to nag, why haven’t you come yet!

"Ah, we're finally here!" Finally, when he saw a black Audi slowly coming towards the restaurant door, Xixi breathed a sigh of relief and immediately stepped forward to command the parking: "Left wheel! Left wheel! Left..."

There was no need for her to know anything. The car stopped directly on the sidewalk, and then the back door opened. Another black-haired girl walked out of the car. Isn’t it Alice?

But at this moment, she looked at the welcomer with a strange expression: "I said Xixi, are you directing it to stop?"

Until this time, Xixi still maintained her command posture in different positions. Seeing that the Audi car drove away as soon as it stopped, she blinked and said in a daze: "The bank sent you to send me?"

"Of course!" Alice was like a little rooster who had returned from a cockfighting field, and walked with a proud little step, holding Sissi's arm and said, "I have borrowed a total of 500 million US dollars from HSBC. Can they still let me go out to take a taxi by myself?"

"Well, yes, that's great." Sissi looked left and right, and while no one looked at her, she kissed Alice on the face: "Why don't you go upstairs quickly, Ashley has long been yelling that she's hungry."

"Hey, when hasn't that big-bellied girl been hungry?"

"Are you talking about you ~?"

The two girls walked into the restaurant while chatting and walked all the way to the second floor. This is a Hong Kong-style restaurant next to the Peninsula Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui. After going upstairs, there were six or seven small tables in front of the floor-to-ceiling window opposite the stairs, but the share was not too high. At this moment, only four or five business people were whispering about something, and business was more than eating.

Instead of joining in the fun, the two of them turned a corner and entered the private room area and finally arrived at their destination.

As soon as the door of the box was pushed open, a strong smell of hairy crab came to my face, and Ashley was talking nonsense: "Oh~ our bank's big creditor is here!"

Alice immediately choked back: "Now the bank is my creditor, idiot!"

"Who are you calling me an idiot?" Ashley sat next to her mother. She was looking for reinforcements now and immediately raised her waist: "Mom, and Aunt Sophie, look, look, Alice said I'm an idiot~"

"Because you're a big idiot." Maiya, who was sitting on the other side, skillfully used chopsticks to pick up a char siu bag and blocked Ashley's mouth: "Ari, sit down, we're waiting for your good news."

"That's how my good news is. 500 million US dollars is enough to get it. The repayment period is five years. How much does it have to do with the capital and the profit?" Alice sat down and took a sip of the seafood soup that Sophie had served for her: "But you, we are taking action together today. What are your gains?"

Sophie picked up a fried shrimp for her daughter: "There are still a lot to be busy with in terms of industrial and commercial taxation, and the branch is not so easy to set up. Don't forget, we haven't selected the address yet."

"Ah~ That must be surrounded by green mountains and clear waters~" Ashley interrupted again, because the char siu bun had been swallowed by her: "This is a branch of the clothing company, how can we ignore the surrounding environment?"

Sissi and Wumei snorted in unison, not saying anything, just having a meal by themselves. Alice immediately started yelling: "Green mountains and clear waters! Please, Ashley, please look at the map? Apart from the places where birds do not shit in Kowloon New Territories, the green mountains and clear waters are only left with high-end residential areas on the south side of Hong Kong Island. Where are you so scared?"

Of course, Ashley made suggestions all kinds of random things. Sophie said: "Of course it's not good for a long distance. We are not in the clothing processing industry. But in terms of site selection, Alice, I always think that the price of Central is too expensive. Do you have to stick to it?"

"Of course, the clothing industry needs to be brand promotion." Alice said: "It's not my style to not build a company on CBD~"

"See, everyone, this second half of the sentence is Alice's focus," Ms. Elena looked at the girl with a smile, then looked at Ashley, who was busy playing with Wuya, and said thoughtfully: "Since it's Central, I've been there for a day today, why not be at the Recreation Building?"

Alice has an impression of Kangle Building. At least she saw it from afar when she went to Central during the day. It was a snow-white concrete building with dense windows like a honeycomb. It was built by the Hong Kong Central Land Company and was completed in 1973. It is 52 floors high, about 180 meters. It is the first skyscraper in Hong Kong, and it is the tallest building in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia in the entire 1970s.

"That building..." Alice instantly thought about the entire Hong Kong industry and said, "It's a coincidence. I just learned from the president of HSBC in the morning that Jardinet Group was about to use that building as the headquarters building. Of course, our branch can't use much area, but we must discuss it with this consortium. Mom, how about this work for you?"

God knows what the hell is Jardinet Group, so Sophie asked for it for granted: "Is that a local Hong Kong enterprise? What field is it in?"

"Based on Asia... diversified company." Such a general term obviously made Alice very uncomfortable. After all, saying it really means not saying it, so she immediately added: "Financial and insurance services, retail department stores, consumer market expansion, engineering and construction, machinery manufacturing, automobile trade, transportation services, real estate and catering... It's all inclusive!"

A long string of words made the whole house amused, and Ashley laughed and said, "It seems that the boss of this company is really greedy and needs to do everything. Hello, Aly, then you must have some chats with him. Look at how many areas you invest in now?"

"Diverency is a good thing." Sophie's eyes were very far-reaching, and he immediately pointed out the key points: "This means that we have many areas to cooperate with him. In this way, it is better to set up the Hong Kong branch of "Oscars" in the Relax Building, and we will definitely have more contact with their company among neighbors."

"If you want to say that you can cooperate... Well, Cisco is definitely a panacea." Speaking of this, Alice herself smiled: "The more the times develop, the more beneficial it will be for us. There will be no company that will not need Cisco's products. Maybe we can discuss with that group to free up a Cisco branch?"

"Cisco branch in Hong Kong..." Sophie pondered: "The company you just invested in in Shenzhen called Huawei can't develop in a short while. Why, Ali, can't wait to enter the Chinese market?"

"Even if it develops, I can't count on them." When I said this, Alice promised that she was squinting her eyes. She laughed and said, "Compet with her, Mom, the more this company develops, the more embarrassing I am its shareholder."

"Oh, have you seen it?" Wuya, who has always been less joking, couldn't help but complain: "This is Alice's bad taste. She takes the initiative to build a competitor for her company. How many people do you want to turn back and drive crazy?"

Laughs rang out because it was indeed a crazy behavior. You know, Cisco is getting bigger and bigger now, and orders in overseas markets are increasing every day. Sooner or later, it will inevitably add offices abroad, and it will be even more time to enter the Chinese market on a large scale. But at this time, Alice secretly sponsored a hungry peer. Why? Is she going to sit and watch the two tigers fight?

"I'm also trying to avoid monopoly," Alice teared a crab in half: "Cisco's product field is getting wider and wider, and with me here, it will definitely keep the peers away for a long time. The big tree will attract wind."

This statement makes sense, but it is not what everyone needs to care about now. It is getting late, and everyone immediately puts their energy on eating. Chinese food is profound, and Hong Kong and Macao dishes are even more outstanding. Chinese restaurants in the United States have repeated those mutated fast foods, which is not as good as one in ten thousand? So, even Sophie, who is used to James's skills, can't help but eat the first beef sausage noodles and another steamed pork dish, so why bother others?

"Well... Anyway, I'll contact the Li family again tonight," Alice, who was sobbing, was not sure how much the others had put her words in: "Then tomorrow, mom, you go with me too...ah woo!"

Sophie was just drinking the soup, and there was no time to pay attention to her daughter's wululu's voice. Of course, she could only keep nodding. But then, she came to her senses and said, "The company registration..."

"Let's talk about it later." Alice said without caring, "Are you still missing that day or two? Tomorrow's busy new things can be considered a change of brains. What do you think, mom?"

It was indeed a good idea, but before that, since it had been working hard all day, Alice must go back to her room and go to bed and go to bed for a night. Just when she was still at HSBC today, she worked hard for a while, and even specially set a two-day itinerary for the next two days. The work days must continue, and a good rest is undoubtedly extremely important.

Then, it was time to sleep.
