On September 17, Wu Guangyao arrived in London and came to the European branch of PG Zipper.

The European branch has rented a two-story building with a large space. There are not only the sales department, but also the mechanical research and development department, and the product research and development department. There are hundreds of employees, and the strength is not insignificant.

Wu Guangyao, the leader of Sun Zhou, the head of the European branch, got to know everyone one by one.

Thomas, the person in charge of the mechanical research and development department, is an experienced 50-year-old English engineer. He has gray hair, a gray beard, and a thin face. He is somewhat similar to Wu Guangyao's old English man. Thomas is currently leading the team, focusing on automatic nylon zipper machines, and some other machinery.

Peter, the person in charge of the product development department, is a German engineer. He is only 30 years old this year, but he has a bit of Prussian rigor on his face. At present, the leading team is also focusing on nylon zipper products and non-metallic zippers, and cooperates with the Mechanical Department.

What surprised Wu Guangyao at first was that the person in charge of the legal department was a young and beautiful Caucasian woman with slightly curly golden brown hair, three-dimensional facial features, and white teeth and bright eyes.

Sun Zhou was afraid that Wu Guangyao would misunderstand, so he specially introduced: "Kayla graduated from the law department of Cambridge University and worked in a law firm for two years. She is quite familiar with the legal affairs here. There are many patent applications and troubles in the company. It can be handled in a timely and efficient manner!"

"Boss, you seem to be very surprised by me. Can I say that you are underestimating me?" Keira said slyly, obviously not afraid of Wu Guangyao, a young boss.

Of course Wu Guangyao would not be angry, not to mention a beautiful woman, even a talented employee, he would not mind.

I allow you to be arrogant, but you must have the ability to be arrogant!

"I think you have misunderstood. I was amazed at your beauty, and I didn't underestimate your ability. I believe that everyone here, who can come here, must be a capable person, and I trust everyone Yes!" Wu Guangyao easily covered up his gaffe.

"Wow, boss, you can really talk!"

Sun Zhou saw that the two were chatting enthusiastically, rolled his eyes, and immediately interjected: "Boss, you have a lot of things to do when you come to Hong Kong Island this time. Minister Keira is obviously a very good escort. She is proficient in European and American laws and can avoid A lot of trouble!"

When Wu Guangyao heard this, he didn't know if Sun Zhou had misunderstood something, or if he was really thinking about himself.

But obviously, what Sun Zhou said makes sense,

I really need a follower who understands legal affairs!

"Well, what you said is very reasonable. I need to buy a freighter and invest in a machinery company this time. I really need a person who understands legal affairs." Wu Guangyao said slowly, a sensible subordinate should be able to answer the question !

"I am willing to accompany the BOSS to complete these tasks. Recently, our legal department is out of space, so we just have something to do!" Keira said cheerfully.

Indeed, if you want to say which department in a company is the emptiest, the legal department must be the number one.

But it is very important, just like Dinghaishenzhen, it must not be less, not weaker!

Wu Guangyao nodded and continued to meet everyone one by one.

Of course, ordinary employees must have forgotten it afterwards!

Although my brain is developed, it needs to be put to use!

To almost a hundred people, Wu Guangyao said loudly: "Just before I came, our PG zipper company raised a slogan, that is, 'the zipper produced in a year must circle the earth'. So everyone, don't relax. , don’t think that we can relax our vigilance because we are number one in the world. The zipper market is increasing every year. In order to continue to win the next round of competition, our PG zipper has decided to continue to increase the cost of research and development...... "Wu Guangyao conveyed the content of the company's recent meeting.

After all the staff had dispersed, everyone performed their duties, and Wu Guangyao called all the leadership and held a meeting in the conference room.

"Many people think that the sales volume of our PG zippers is far ahead of other companies. In fact, what I value most is not sales volume, but quality. I want the zippers we produce, and the first impression of others is 'sturdy' and 'high-end'. So you must take these two words as the focus of your work!"

In later generations, YKK zippers will continue to prosper, even if the total domestic production in China exceeds YKK, but when it comes to high-end zippers, it is still YKK.

why is that?

It's not because YKK has long attached importance to the word "solid" and occupied the middle and high-end market.

And the domestic small workshops only make some superficial profits!

Therefore, Wu Guangyao asked the people in the company to keep an eye on YKK, because it is a role model!

Even if PG Zipper is currently leading, but he has no confidence and will lead in the future.

.....

In the evening, a dinner was held in a hotel, and all the employees here were invited.

Whether it was intentional or not, Keira took the initiative to sit next to Wu Guangyao, which made Wu Guangyao's heart flutter!

"Boss, what kind of place is Hong Kong Island?" Keira's cheeks were flushed, obviously because of drinking red wine.

"It is a place full of opportunities. Maybe it is not developed enough today, but I believe that its future must be second only to New York and London." Wu Guangyao said confidently.

The development of Hong Kong Island was very good in the previous life, and I want to make it even better in this life!

What a lofty goal it is for one person to change a city!

"Oh, what about its advantages?" Keira obviously wouldn't blindly believe Wu Guangyao's words.

As a top student, it is natural to get to the bottom of it.

"The bond between China and the West, you Westerners have been wanting to establish trade with China since more than a hundred years ago, and you did not hesitate to start a war. This just shows the importance of Hong Kong Island."

"But it's just an entrepot, and its development prospects are limited!" Keira ignored Wu Guangyao's run on and continued to ask.

"Who said that Hong Kong Island's manufacturing industry still has many advantages. It can not only obtain your advanced equipment from the West, but also obtain cheap raw materials and manpower from the East. In the future, it will definitely not be a single entrepot, but also the financial center of Asia. centers and manufacturing centers...."

Wu Guangyao spared no effort to introduce Hong Kong Island to others, so he naturally regarded himself as a Hong Kong Islander in his heart!

"Our company has so many advantages, what if the European and American governments implement trade protection?" Keira continued to ask.

Wu Guangyao stared at Kaila with undisguised admiration, which made the atmosphere at this table a little strange!

"You are very smart! You can think of so much, work hard, there will be a bigger stage waiting for you in the future!"

"As for what you asked, I have already prepared for it, so we will expand outwards. In the future, we will build factories overseas!" Wu Guangyao continued.

Wu Guangyao knows the company's development well!

As a traveler, the path of others is your own path!

.....

Early in the morning, Wu Guangyao woke up from his sleep and looked around...

Don't get me wrong, there is nothing, just a erotic dream!

Get up, wash up, and continue to the office of the European branch.

Today I still need to stay here for a day, listen to reports from all sides, and make my own instructions!

During lunch, Wu Guangyao finally heard the news of the depreciation of the pound.

At this time, many English people looked distressed, obviously saddened by the news.

Currency depreciation is both a good thing and a bad thing. It is a double-edged sword!

However, the depreciation of the pound must not be a good thing!

Because everything is promoted by the United States, and the new world hegemon has replaced the old world hegemony, it will naturally hit your currency.

Although England won two world wars, England won and lost in World War II, its economic and trade strength was severely weakened, and its debts had piled up (the debts from World War I have not yet been paid off).

The international status naturally plummeted. In his memoirs, then British Prime Minister Winston Churchill described his mood when he participated in the Yalta Conference that reshaped the post-war system: "I sat on one side with a huge polar bear, and on the other side sat a huge North American bison. Poor little English donkey."

Naturally, Wu Guangyao was not touched by such a major historical event. Everything was done according to the historical script, and it was not something that a small person like himself could do.

Fortunately, my foreign trade has always been settled in US dollars, with very little loss!

In the afternoon, Wu Guangyao called Kaila into the office and asked her: "I bought two 10,000-ton oil tankers with Wheelock before. I paid in 12 installments, and now I have paid three installments. Now that the pound has depreciated, If I continue to pay the agreed amount according to the contract, what trouble do you think I will have?"

Keira said, "Is there any regulation on currency depreciation in the contract?"

"No!"

"Then you don't need to worry about it, just pay as usual. However, if Wheelock goes to court, there may be unexpected results. If there is a lawsuit, I am willing to go to Hong Kong Island to help you respond to the lawsuit!"

Keira is very confident, because the laws of Hong Kong Island are British laws, and what she has learned will definitely be able to handle this kind of lawsuit.

At this time, George Madden, the head of Wheelock at the London headquarters, also heard the news of the depreciation of the pound.

First of all, there is not much sadness. After all, for large companies, they are basically fixed assets. Currency depreciation will cause prices to rise instead. This is equivalent to Wheelock increasing assets, and at the same time, export trade will become more competitive in the future.

But George Madden suddenly thought of something, and immediately opened the safe in the office, found a contract, and read it carefully.

Half an hour later, George Madden slapped the table violently, swearing words out of his mouth!

After calming down, George Madden muttered to himself: "The kid doesn't know that the pound will depreciate, does he?"

"It's not right, even if he pays in Hong Kong dollars, he will pay a lot less!"

However, George Madden realized that now is not the time to pursue this, but how the contract was written, how could it not note the depreciation of the currency.

George Madden immediately called Hong Kong Island and ordered the person in charge of Far East Shipping to fire the person who drafted the contract, and prepared to negotiate with Global Shipping. He must try his best to recover the losses, even if he went to the Hong Kong Island Court to file a lawsuit.

The person in charge of Far East Shipping first fired the person who drew up the contract, and then hurried to Global Shipping to explain his intention.

He Yuanzhang is so smart. When his boss was in Far East Shipping, he was ridiculed and despised by George Madden, and he vividly remembered it.

I am also a loser, a loser, and a winner.

How could I sympathize with them? Besides, for such a big company, what is this small amount of money?

Now, how can I let go, of course everything must be done according to the contract!

Besides, He Yuanzhang suspected that the boss deliberately set up this trick to let George Madden get into it!

Currency exchange in this era is basically a fixed exchange rate, not free floating!

USD/GBP, GBP/HKD, USD/JPY etc. are fixed exchange rates.

Therefore, many contracts do not note how to deal with currency depreciation!

Unlike later generations, the contract is so sound!

"I want to see Mr. Wu, the boss of your company, please arrange it with Manager He!" Although the person in charge is a foreigner, he is a little submissive now, which is quite different from the majestic and dignified way back then.

Because he knows that he is also responsible for the loopholes in this transaction!

The boss fired his capable person, so why not express his dissatisfaction with himself!

"Sorry, Mr. Ino, our boss went to Europe for inspection. I don't know the specific itinerary, and I can't get in touch! But don't worry, I will tell you as soon as he comes back! After all, I can't do this at all. Only operate in accordance with the contract."

"This..." Yinuo suddenly felt helpless, only two or three days before the payment period, what should be done.

And looking at He Yuanzhang's expression, I am afraid that Global Shipping will never compromise on this matter!

Yinuo feels like a sandwich biscuit, and the two bosses fight, and he suffers.

Seeing Yinuo leaving disappointedly, He Yuanzhang snorted coldly: "A self-righteous Englishman needs to pay a price for his arrogance!"
