Chapter 66

What is an interest alliance?

The relationship between Wu Feng and the Hong Hing hall masters at this time is the best example.

With this layer of relationship, his process of integrating into Hong Hing was extremely smooth, and no trouble arose.

Especially after good news came from Han Bin and Jiang Tiansheng, his situation in Hong Hing became even more comfortable.

Orders from within Hong Hing alone flew toward Wu Feng's small garment factory like snowflakes.

From then on, the small garment factory started three-shift production again.

Incidentally, they rented machines from other nearby factories to produce together.

The trucks sent by the Hong Hing hall masters waited in the factory; as soon as a batch of clothes, shoes, and hats was produced, they paid and shipped them immediately, not giving the small garment factory a chance to keep inventory.

Since then, there have been many more premium A-grade goods on the Hong Kong market, which are very popular with young people.

Other society peers and scum were naturally jealous, and they fought quite a few battles over this.

Peers are enemies, not to mention that the behavior of their Hong Hing peers basically cut off their path to wealth.

With better A-grade goods to buy, and at similar prices, even a fool knows how a buyer would choose.

Wu Feng heard about some of these, while others never reached his ears.

In order to make money, the hall masters of each district were naturally not polite and were full of confidence when fighting.

The benefits of joining Hong Hing became apparent; the premium imitation clothes, shoes, and hats that could previously only be sold in Mong Kok were easily spread across the entire Kowloon Peninsula, and even spread to Hong Kong Island and the New Territories.

This is also the main reason why he was only willing to be a wholesaler and was unwilling to spend great energy on frontline sales; it was too exhausting for his energy and mind.

Not to mention that the quantity of premium imitation clothes, shoes, and hats needed by Han Bin and Jiang Tiansheng was increasing, and just coping with production was not easy.

In fact, he didn't earn much by producing high-quality imitation clothes, shoes, and hats in Hong Kong.

High-quality fabrics, as well as various leathers, were not cheap to procure.

The cost of each piece of clothing, shoe, or hat was tens of Hong Kong dollars, and his ex-factory price was only fifty to one hundred, so he could only earn about thirty or forty, which was considered hard-earned money.

To avoid vicious competition within Hong Hing, Wu Feng even negotiated with the hall masters several times, and finally determined the market price for these premium imitation clothes, shoes, and hats: a minimum of one hundred and a maximum of two hundred.

Any higher, and customers might not be willing to buy; they might as well grit their teeth and buy the genuine product.

It was just that the premium imitation clothes, shoes, and hats hadn't yet had a huge impact on the genuine market, nor had they affected those well-known Hong Kong clothing and shoe brands, otherwise, Wu Feng and his small textile factory would probably be in trouble.

This is also the main reason why Jiang Tiansheng and Han Bin didn't have the slightest intention of setting up a garment factory themselves.

Their insight was obviously much higher than that of the other hall masters!

Opening a garment factory in Hong Kong, once the scale is large, you simply cannot bypass the monopoly overlords.

Do you really think those garment kings in Hong Kong, and the textile interest groups behind them, are just sitting around? If things go wrong, people will die.

I don't know if it was luck, but anyway, the scale of Wu Feng's garment factory wouldn't attract the attention of the real monopoly overlords, allowing him to have a sip of soup in the clothing, shoe, and hat market.

In fact, without Jiang Tiansheng and Han Bin's reminders, having read many rebirth business novels in his previous life, he was instinctively wary of the garment kings in Hong Kong and intentionally avoided risks when doing the A-grade business.

At the same time, he kept urging the Mainland side to speed up construction and constantly sent relevant staff over to do a good job in training newly recruited employees.

Wu Feng also had requirements for the employees recruited by the garment factory.

At least half had to be retired soldiers; he gave the previous unit a quota of one hundred people, and the rest were directly connected to the local armed forces department—having money makes one willful.

As long as the factory on the Mainland side was opened, there would be no need to be so cautious.

During this period, he could ship two batches of waste paper directly from the United States every month, and all the proceeds were deposited in the bank in RMB for backup.

In fact, the cash flow of Hong Kong dollars and US dollars in his hands was always being consumed.

Fortunately, there were enough income channels, and the monthly income was already approaching ten million Hong Kong dollars.

Every time he calculated his own income, he couldn't help but sigh: this era is truly a golden age for doing real industry; the small garment factory alone could provide more than three million in income every month!

During this period, good news came from Brussels, Belgium; the works sent to participate in the competition won awards again.

The European copyrights for the two folk works sold for a total of 1.3 million US dollars, which was considered quite good.

With this, the overseas award-winning plan proposed by Wu Feng and specifically executed by the Yindu Institution was successfully concluded.

Not to mention the awards won, the European and American copyrights alone sold for a total of 2.8 million US dollars!

This was extra income that he had never thought of before.

Wu Feng's "Mong Kok News" and other leftist newspapers once again detonated a wave of public opinion.

People in the Hong Kong film circle were stunned: can it be played like this?

Go to the United States to make a fortune, then turn around and go to Europe to make another one; awesome.

Cinema City, having received guidance, was currently in a silent period of sending films to Europe and America for awards, so they didn't have much reaction to this, although it was natural that they were looking forward to it even more in their hearts.

Golden Harvest was a bit anxious and called again to invite Wu Feng to be a guest.

Boss Zou's mentality was easy to understand!

Previously, in the entire Hong Kong, only Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest dared to challenge the European and American markets.

The result was very tragic; after Li Xiaolong, Cheng Shilong did not successfully break into Hollywood.

In the past two years, he filmed "The Big Brawl" and "The Cannonball Run" consecutively; although the box office in the United States was not bad, it had nothing to do with Cheng Shilong and Golden Harvest.

In other words, Golden Harvest and Cheng Shilong failed to challenge Hollywood!

As a result, the leftist film company Yindu Institution, which had always been a small transparent, filmed a low-cost folk fantasy film that actually won an award at a US film festival, not to mention selling good copyright fees.

Then, they ran to Europe to do it again, also winning awards and selling copyrights!

Simply unreasonable!

Is there any justice, is there any law?

After a careful check, they knew it was the planning of Wu Feng, the boss of Fengrui Film and Television Company, so naturally, they wanted to invite him over for a good talk; if they could recruit Wu Feng, it would be even better.

Although they sent an invitation at the end of last year, neither side took it seriously.

This time, the personnel from Yindu Institution and Fengrui Film and Television Company returned from Europe with honors, the newspapers were full of joy, and Golden Harvest invited him solemnly again.

However, Wu Feng didn't rush to agree but indicated that he would go over when he had time.

He had to wait for the overseas film sales information from Cinema City and the specific news from VTech.

Communicating directly with Boss Zou now, the other party wouldn't really take him seriously!

When he had enough achievements, it would be much easier to go over and talk about certain things.

As it happened, Yindu Institution wanted to hold a celebration banquet, and Wu Feng was naturally happy to support it.

Obviously, Chairman Liao was really happy this time; this celebration banquet not only made a big splash but also invited many high-level people in the circle to attend.

Wu Feng was "low-key" as always, arriving in a van, which made Jing Kun, who was with him, very dissatisfied.
