Chapter 122 Nanyang Forty-eight Surnames
After a day of driving, Zhou Ming finally arrived in Nanjiang City, Lingnan at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Such a long journey made Zhou Ming miss the high-speed rail that later generations once again, which could shorten the eight-hour drive to two and a half hours.
Su Han also followed Zhou Ming. In fact, Zhou Ming did not intend to take her. After all, the Southeast Asia area he was going to is not a good place, especially for Chinese people, but this stubborn girl had to follow Zhou Ming no matter what, and Zhou Ming finally let her go.
When Zhou Ming arrived in Nanjiang, he first came to the headquarters building of Nanjiang Development Bank before he had time to find a hotel to check in.
"Mr. Zhou Ming, you are finally here. It's so happy to see you again!"
As soon as he entered the door, Luo Han, the first vice president of Nan Development Bank, who also founded the Shenzhen Stock Exchange with him, immediately came to meet him, and said that Director Cao had been waiting in the office upstairs, so he pulled Zhou Ming up.
"Mr. Luo, I saw it in the newspaper. You are now a sensational figure in Nanjiang!" Zhou Ming said.
Zhou Ming's words are not completely polite. After all, Nan Development Bank is very powerful. Many bosses have to please the bank for loans, let alone Luo Han is also the founder of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.
You should know that most people in China do not have a clear understanding of the capital market now. They only know that stocks can make money, but this simple understanding makes everyone chase stocks like crazy. Lohan, as one of the three giants of the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, is naturally the focus of people's pursuit. If a company wants to go public, it must please him, and if investors want to buy stocks, they must please him. He can't think it's okay to focus without the focus.
"If it were someone else, I would be complacent, but facing you, Mr. Zhou Ming, I'm afraid I'm just showing off my skills!" Luo Han sighed.
Luo Han is also the truth. Not to mention that Nan Development Bank and Shenzhen Stock Exchange can achieve this today, Zhou Ming is the biggest contributor. The public debate in the focus interview a week ago is enough to be recorded in history. I haven’t come back in recent years and I have forgotten this person in China. As a result, I have just returned to China and have caused such a big disturbance. Luo Han really can’t accept it.
Then they went upstairs to the office, where Cao's youngest son, Luo Han's immediate boss, was here.
Seeing Zhou Ming coming in, Cao Jianning immediately came out: "Mr. Zhou Ming, welcome to Nanjiang. You are finally here. Please sit in there."
Zhou Ming didn't be polite to him this time, and went in and sat on the sofa. The eight-hour drive was really tiring.
Then Luo Han left the office very consciously. After all, some things were not something he could hear, so he left Zhou Ming, Su Han and Cao Jianning here. Cao Jianning asked first: "I didn't expect Zhou Ming, you are really calm and stay at home for a week. It seems that you are confident about this trip to Southeast Asia, right?"
Zhou Ming shook his head: "Actually, I didn't think about the specific method."
Cao Jianning was stunned at the time. His first reaction was that Zhou Ming was joking with him, but Zhou Ming was very serious and there was no joke at all. And Zhou Ming and himself did not need to joke here.
"Mr. Zhou Ming is really calm, but this week has passed, I guess Mr. Zhou Ming has already figured out a solution?" Cao Jianning said nothing, "Otherwise, Mr. Zhou Ming wouldn't come here, so what do I need to do?"
Zhou Ming just smiled and didn't explain much. In fact, he still doesn't have a completely certain idea, but he just has a general idea. However, there is no need to explain it too clearly to Cao Jianning. After all, as a collaborator, you still have to give people some confidence, right?
So Zhou Ming asked him: "I know that the Cao family is a big family in Lingnan, so do you have any contact with the overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia?"
Faced with Zhou Ming's problem, Cao Jianning immediately realized Zhou Ming's plan: "Do you want to use the local relationship between Southeast Asian overseas Chinese to participate in this matter?"
Zhou Ming did not hide it, this is indeed Zhou Ming's idea. It is very simple and clear. Since he does not have enough capital strength, he will borrow it and find a partner. Since he has never had any relationships in Southeast Asian countries, and now he has no time and has no time to arrange it, so he will find ready-made cooperation. And overseas Chinese who have been operating in Southeast Asia for more than 100 years are good partners.
First of all, these Chinese people started to operate Southeast Asia even earlier, so after so long, they must have taken root in Southeast Asia. If you want to talk about various investment channels and relationships, they must be the ones who know the best.
In addition, Chinese have always been rich in Southeast Asia. After all, after more than a hundred years of operation, it is not surprising that no matter how much wealth it gathers with Chinese people, it is not surprising that even if they are as hardworking and tenacity as a gathering of wealth, they can build an oriental financial center in just a small place in Hong Kong City, so what about enlarging it to the entire Southeast Asia? Although there are many other factors in the rise of Hong Kong City, it can also explain the problem.
Last and most important point, due to some historical reasons, China has been discriminated against and excluded by white people all over the world. Now, although the main battlefield of the Capital World War was chosen in Southeast Asia, with the usual style of the Westerners, even if they set up, they will only look for the indigenous people of Southeast Asia, and will not look for these overseas Chinese groups. At the same time, these local overseas Chinese groups will not be willing to cooperate with these Westerners.
So since the overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia have connections and some people are rich in the local area and they lack anything, there is no reason not to find them to cooperate.
But... the only problem now is that I have never contacted these overseas Chinese groups. I am very likely to encounter the embarrassing situation of not being able to find the temple gate with a pig's head, so Zhou Ming has to ask someone.
In Zhou Ming's poor historical knowledge, he probably knew that these overseas Chinese groups operating Southeast Asia went south from Lingnan, so he came to Cao Jianning to ask if the young shopkeeper of the Cao family had any way.
Cao Jianning sighed and said to Zhou Ming: "If you have such a plan, then I would like to advise you to give up this idea, because the things in Nanyang are not as simple as you think, and the overseas Chinese over there... have the name "Chinese". They do not really treat us as compatriots, and they are even a little hostile and discriminatory. It is completely boring to find them."
Cao Jianning continued: "Just like us, although there are one of my Cao family among the forty-eight surnames in Nanyang, we can only know each other for so long. At most, occasionally they will come here to worship their ancestors. If you want to talk about the deep connection or relationship, you have never!"
"If you want to worship, I will give you the contact information, but I really don't think this is a good idea."
Cao Jianning advised Zhou Ming: "If you are lucky, they will greet you with a smile and ask about the situation in the country. If you are delicious, drink and treat you well. If you are less lucky, they will directly turn you off or even drive you away."
Zhou Ming had a certain understanding of the situation in Southeast Asia before and knew that because the conditions for Chinese to go to Southeast Asia were very bad, and there were discrimination and bullying from foreigners and local indigenous peoples, most Chinese people gathered together to keep warm. The forty-eight surnames of the South China Sea refer to the largest and most powerful clans distributed in Southeast Asia, not simply forty-eight different surnames.
"I'm prepared, but it seems that the situation may be much worse than I thought."
Zhou Ming scratched his head helplessly, and then said, "But things have to be done. You can't give up because of difficulties. How can you know if you don't do it? What if it succeeds?"
"You are really optimistic, then okay, I will give you the contact information and wish you success!"
Cao Jianning said this, then took out his notebook and wrote down a contact list and handed it to Zhou Ming. Then he left Zhou Ming for dinner in Nanjiang at night. Zhou Ming was also very tired. He accepted the list and went back to rest for a while. It was not until around 7 o'clock in the evening that he went to Cao Jianning's private teahouse to let him do his best as a landlord.
Early the next morning, Zhou Ming got up and went to Port City through the port.
Just after the exit, Zhou Ming saw a very beautiful figure waiting there anxiously, and kept tiptoing toward the port.
"Sister Mu Qing!"
Before Zhou Ming could speak, Su Han jumped and waved to the other side, saying that this woman was Lin Muqing.
With Su Han's shouting, Lin Muqing finally saw Zhou Ming in the crowd. She could no longer suppress the emotions in her heart and ran over to Zhou Ming's arms regardless of her demeanor.
This scene shocked everyone next to her because Lin Muqing was very beautiful, especially today she carefully dressed up her own to pick up Zhou Ming. Although she only had light makeup, her eyebrows and corners of her eyes made her, who was already beautiful and charming, have a more seductive style.
In addition, there are small suits and skirts that are cut and perfectly outlined her delicate figure, making many people swallow their mouths and mouths dry after taking a look. At the same time, Lin Muqing also has an inviolable temperament. Many people even look at her and feel ashamed of themselves, and they feel that their thoughts are a bit dirty will be punished.
Finally, when Lin Muqing pounced on Zhou Ming's arms, he could even hear many heartbreaking voices. However, Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing were born with a handsome man. Is it someone who would turn to oppose it? Or even if you object, they would not be able to change anything.
"Zhou Ming, I miss you so much. I miss you every day. I have read all the news about you. I know that you are not good in China. Many people exclude you and frame you. I am too worried about you! I am also very afraid, but I can't share the burden with you if you have something to do with you. I am also very happy, because Zhou Ming, you finally come to Hong Kong City..."
Lin Muqing murmured in Zhou Ming's arms. Perhaps her words sounded a little messy, but it was her most sincere expression.
"Okay, am I here? I'm sorry for worrying you." Zhou Ming stroked Lin Muqing's hair and said.
However, Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing are so strong that they are so strong that Su Han is a little jealous. She pouted and reminded: "Hey, Sister Muqing, it's obviously me who is saying hello to you, okay?" (To be continued)
