Chapter 533 Li Xiaolong Zhang Hong Kong

Chapter 533 Li Xiaolong Returns to Hong Kong

The scale of the chip industry is very large. In human life, anything that uses electricity in the future may gradually use chips, such as lights, fans and even small toys.
The functions of many chips are also very simple, so the process requirements are not very high, and such chips are the mainstream in the market;

The fierce chip war between China and the United States in the past was actually a battle for mobile phone chips. Because mobile phones require high computing power, are small in size, and difficult to dissipate heat, mobile phone chips can indeed be said to be the real crown of the electronics industry.

But from the perspective of the entire chip industry, even if the profit of mobile phone chips is high, the proportion is not very high. In addition, the development of smart phones has reached a late stage. If you don’t play games, ordinary mobile phones can be used for four or five years without any problems.
As a Chinese, it is indeed difficult for me to master the most advanced chip manufacturing process, but for others, it is hard to say. At least there is a chance, and the same goes for LCD.

At worst, you can also control a certain industrial chain through various investments. However, because of your existence, history may have changed a lot, and it is hard to say what the future will be like. Therefore, it is better to control a part of it yourself as much as possible, so that it will be much more convenient to negotiate prices with other suppliers.

On April 4, the sixth day after Yang Wendong and Su Yiyi arrived in the United States, assistant Aying brought a piece of news:
"Mr. Yang, Mrs. Yang, Boeing has already reduced the price of the 737 aircraft to 515 million US dollars." Ah Ying said, "Their team said that this is the lowest price, and they will not negotiate any lower."

"Okay, that's it. I will sign the contract before leaving the United States." Yang Wendong replied.

Su Yiyi asked, "This price can't be lowered any further?"

515 million US dollars is not a small amount of money even for Yang Wendong. For Su Yiyi, the clothing industry she has worked hard for in the past few years has almost become the number one in Hong Kong, but the annual turnover is not that high;

I don’t know how many clothes I can change into on one plane.

Yang Wendong said: "I don't think it will work. Airlines in the market still have a high demand for aircraft, especially the 737, which has made great progress in fuel efficiency. With high demand, we don't have much bargaining power."

In fact, in another five years, when the first oil crisis comes, it might be more cost-effective to buy your own plane;
But after thinking about it, he decided to give up. It is not cost-effective to wait for 5 years to save hundreds of thousands of dollars. For him, time is the most important thing. This is why many CEOs of large companies have private jets, just to save their working time and improve efficiency.

Ah Ying continued, "Mr. Yang, Boeing said that we still need to be responsible for the interior decoration. Several companies will go to Hong Kong to find you, and then we will negotiate and carry out the interior and exterior decoration."

"Okay, let them come to Hong Kong to find me," Yang Wendong nodded and said.

Of course, he couldn't stay in the United States just to design the interior of an aircraft. This is not a car. The interior decoration of a private jet may be more complicated than that of a house, involving layout, color, material and so on.

It is obviously more cost-effective to let the workers of these teams fly back and forth between the United States and Hong Kong more often. These people and the companies behind them may be able to get more fees and be happy.

"Okay, then I'll contact these companies right away." Ah Ying said and left.

Su Yiyi said: "We will have our own plane soon. It's incredible to think about it."

"There will be many more incredible things in the future." Yang Wendong said with a smile.

Su Yiyi asked, "We already have a plane and a yacht, so it's unlikely that there will be anything better, right?"

"Maybe I can get a bigger one in the future." Yang Wendong thought for a while and said, "Or if I really have money, I can buy a private submarine, but the risk is too high, there is no need to specialize in this;
But for safety reasons, a large cruise ship can be placed inside to avoid extreme situations where a submarine is needed.”

In the past, there were a few wealthy people who would customize luxury submarines, but the number was very small, and they would go to the bottom of the sea to see the scenery. However, it was not necessary for normal wealthy people, and the risk was a bit high. I guess only wealthy people who were seeking excitement would like to play this way;
However, as a safety measure for the yacht, it is also possible to consider having an independent submarine. Some yachts that are hundreds of meters long can accommodate a small submarine inside.

Although the possibility of using it is almost zero, the super-rich don't care about the money. They just have to consider any possible situations, such as encountering a large tsunami, pirate threats, etc., then submarines will be useful.

On April 4, Yang Wendong welcomed a guest at the InterContinental Hotel in Los Angeles.

"Bruce, please take a seat." Yang Wendong greeted with a smile. The person who came was naturally Li Xiaolong whom he had met a few days ago.
I thought I wouldn't make any progress before I left the United States, but I didn't expect that my assistant received a call from Li Xiaolong yesterday afternoon, saying that he wanted to meet with Yang Wendong, so I arranged to leave this morning;

Bruce said: "Thank you, Mr. Yang."

Yang Wendong asked again: "How about it, have you considered coming to me?"

"Yes, I have discussed it with my family and plan to return to Hong Kong for development." Li Xiaolong replied, "But before going to Hong Kong, I also need to confirm some things with Mr. Yang."

"Okay, you go ahead." Yang Wendong nodded;
Yang Wendong actually doesn't think highly of the little business that Li Xiaolong's films can generate in Hong Kong and Asia, but his fame in Asia after he became famous is the most valuable;

Not to mention himself, even Hollywood took notice. In the past, Li Xiaolong shot several Hong Kong films with the help of Golden Harvest, which became a big hit in Asia. The Chinese in Europe and America also liked them very much. Then Hollywood immediately prepared to cooperate with Golden Harvest.

At that time, Shao Yifu was so angry that his face turned blue, and Golden Harvest was at the peak of its life. Unfortunately, Li Xiaolong suddenly passed away, causing all the cooperation to fall through.
In this life, I must naturally make full use of this, and also try my best to ensure his health and safety. Li Xiaolong said: "Some of my requirements are about movies. The $10,000 that Mr. Yang mentioned before is fine for the first movie, but I need to be the director and screenwriter."

"You can be responsible for the plot, I authorize you, but basically the directing and screenwriting work still needs someone else, they can cooperate with you." Yang Wendong added: "But you have to think clearly, if you are responsible for everything, if the movie fails later, your future may be ruined."

Li Xiaolong laughed and said, "Other people are responsible for directing and writing the plot. If the movie fails, my future will still be ruined. It's better for me to do it myself. At least I will be responsible for myself.

I am still very confident about my own movies. The Green Hornet was successful because I designed many actions and plots for this character on the spur of the moment, and the director at the time was also optimistic about it.
Now that I’m in charge of the film myself, I have absolute confidence that it will be successful, as long as everything goes my way.”

"Okay, you have the final say on the first film." Yang Wendong agreed, "But I might give you some advice on the next ones."

Let Li Xiaolong display his talents first and then see the results. This is also the persistence of a capable person. If you stop him, the cooperation may not go smoothly.

For Changxing Film Company, even if they really made a few movies, it would not be a big deal. What's more, given Li Xiaolong's martial arts and his understanding of martial arts, even if the plot is not very good, it will still achieve good results.

Li Xiaolong smiled and said, "Okay. Besides, I don't have a place to live in Hong Kong either. I'd like to ask Mr. Yang to take care of me in this regard."

"Don't worry, I will definitely arrange your life well. I will also provide you with a driver. You have been in the United States for many years, so you may not be used to left and right steering. For safety reasons, it is better not to drive."

This living cost is nothing to Yang Wendong. Not to mention Li Xiaolong, even some overseas senior technical personnel hired by his own company have special living arrangements.
Of course, in terms of arrangements, Li Xiaolong's conditions are definitely better. After all, he is the only one in the world, and it is also related to the future strategic planning of Changxing Group.

Li Xiaolong said happily: "Thank you, Mr. Yang, when shall we set off?"

"I'm going to Seattle in a few days, but if you want to go to Hong Kong, you have to do one more thing." Yang Wendong added: "I will arrange for you to go to the best hospital in Los Angeles for a full body check-up."

There are many rumors about the cause of death of this future Kung Fu star, including a relapse of an old illness, excessive drug use, and even murder. No one knows the details.

Now that Li Xiaolong has to work for himself, and his health will affect the planning and development of his own industry, he naturally needs to do a physical examination first. At least if the cause of death is due to physical reasons, it is good to be able to find out some physical hidden dangers now;
However, the medical technology of this era may not be that advanced, so we can only do our best.

"Physical examination? That's fine." Li Xiaolong didn't think much about it. Some large companies in the United States also have physical examinations for new employees, but ordinary actors don't;
Yang Wendong smiled and said, "Okay, tomorrow morning on an empty stomach, I will arrange a car to pick you up at your house, and I will also have a physical examination with you."

In order to ensure his health, he built a professional medical examination hospital in Hong Kong, but due to the limitation of technology, it is still not as good as the top hospitals in the United States. It is no exaggeration to say that the United States is a beacon of technology in this era.
Since he was in the United States and Li Xiaolong was arranged to have a full-body check-up, he naturally did the same as well.

The next day, Yang Wendong, Su Yiyi and Li Xiaolong underwent a half-day examination at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Los Angeles. In addition to the high-dose CT scan, all other possible tests were also performed.

Li Xiaolong was also shocked by the number of examinations. At noon, when the three of them were having lunch in the VIP restaurant inside the hospital, Li Xiaolong asked in confusion: "Mr. Yang, isn't this too many physical examinations?"

The salary for his and Yang Wendong's first film was only 1 US dollars, but with so many tests today, it is estimated to be about the same amount. Medical prices in the United States have always been very expensive, especially in large private hospitals like this.

Yang Wendong smiled and said, "It's nothing. People of high value naturally need to undergo higher value examinations. Making money and becoming famous are secondary. Health is more important."

If the conditions for medicine and medical research and development in Hong Kong were not so poor, he might have invested in medicine, especially some top medical equipment. It is not just a matter of making money, but if he can invent something in advance, he may save many lives.

"Thank you, Mr. Yang." The tests were completed, so Li Xiaolong could only say thank you.

Yang Wendong added: "I have asked the hospital to issue a report as soon as possible. We will be able to see it in two days. However, we will go to Seattle together first. Someone will deliver the report here.

If you have any questions, you can also retest in Seattle.”

"Okay." Li Xiaolong naturally had no objection to this arrangement;

Traveling with the super rich is a good deal even if he doesn't get paid.

The next day, the group came to Seattle again. Yang Wendong signed a contract with Boeing and then returned directly to Hong Kong from Seattle.

PS: Please give me a monthly ticket at the end of the month
