Chapter 1304
Ye Chen has sufficient funds in his hands, and there is also the money-printing machine of Jiuxuan Pharmaceutical that makes money continuously, so starting ocean shipping is indeed not a difficult task for him.
Whether it is establishing a company, docking at ports, or leasing cargo ships, there is no problem with funds.
However, the most critical problem is that if such a large new business is to be started, there must be a person with sufficient ability to help manage it.
The first person Ye Chen thought of was Wang Wang Dongxue.
Wang Wang Dongxue's ability goes without saying, and her character is absolutely worthy of trust.
But the only problem is that Wang Wang Dongxue still has to manage the Dihao Group. If she is asked to take the lead in doing ocean shipping at the same time, I am afraid she will be unable to attend to everything.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Chen decided to wait for Wang Wang Dongxue to return from Hong Kong and have a chat with her to see if she has any good ideas or knows any other management talents who are good at this.
So, he said to everyone: "Thank you for your suggestions. I will carefully consider the matter of ocean shipping."
Ito Takehiko hurriedly said: "If Mr. Ye wants to do it, I will definitely support it with all my strength!"
Song Wanting also said without hesitation: "Master Ye, Wanting is also willing to support you unconditionally!"
Qin Gang hurriedly said: "Master Ye, there's me too! When I go back tonight, I'll call Li Tailai. He is deeply rooted in Haicheng and seems to have shares in the port of Haicheng. If you choose the main wharf and base in Haicheng at that time, with his assistance, you will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort!"
Ye Chen nodded and said: "That's fine too. You help me ask about the relevant situation of Li Tailai. After I go back, I will consider it comprehensively."
Qin Gang hurriedly agreed: "Okay, Master Ye!"
Just when Ye Chen was moved by ocean shipping at the dinner table, Old Master Su, who was also eating at the lakeside villa in Su Hang, suddenly received a piece of intelligence.
After listening to the intelligence, he immediately said to Su Shoudao with a dark face: "Shoudao, I just received news that Ito Takehiko of the Ito family has gone to Jin Ling!"
"What?!" Su Shoudao exclaimed: "Dad, how could Ito Takehiko go to Jin Ling? The Ito family doesn't seem to have any business in Jin Ling."
Old Master Su Chengfeng said with a solemn face: "Although I don't know what business the Ito family has in Jin Ling, I think this matter is not simple, because Ito Takehiko and his sister, as well as his loyal subordinate, all chose to stay at the Bai Jinhangong in Jin Ling!"
"Bai Jinhangong?!" Su Shoudao blurted out: "Isn't that the Ye family's industry?"
"Yes!" Su Chengfeng gritted his teeth and said: "Jin Ling was originally in the Ye family's sphere of influence and belongs to the Ye family's territory. It's strange enough that Ito Takehiko suddenly went to Jin Ling, and choosing to stay at the Ye family's hotel makes it even more dangerous."
Su Shoudao hurriedly asked: "Dad, are you worried that the Ito family will cooperate with the Ye family?"
"Yes." Su Chengfeng said seriously: "Currently, our ocean shipping industry is suspended across the board. For a time, the entire industry is in turmoil. On one hand, because we stopped sailing, the international shipping demand has a large gap that cannot be met, and freight rates are rising. On the other hand, these rented ships in our hands are all to be released to the shipowners. Once released to the shipowners, these ships will become objects for other families and enterprises to compete for. The biggest threat among them is the Ye family!"
Su Shoudao pondered for a moment and said: "Dad, if the Ye family really hooks up with the Ito family, it will be too disadvantageous for us! If things go wrong, the Ye family will completely surpass the Su family because of this opportunity!"
Su Chengfeng gave a hum and said gloomily: "So there are several tasks that need you to solve urgently right now."
Su Shoudao hurriedly stood up and said: "Dad, if there is anything you need me to handle, just give your orders."
Su Chengfeng said: "I want you to go to Jin Ling, first figure out what Ito Takehiko's motivation for going to Jin Ling is, then find a way to establish contact with Ito Takehiko, and strive for cooperation with the Ito family. At that time, the conditions can be opened higher. First, let the Ito family give up cooperation with the Ye family, and then slowly establish cooperation with them. We don't know how long the above will punish us this time, so we must make two-handed preparations!"
Su Shoudao hurriedly said: "Dad, if I also go to Jin Ling, then no one will take care of you in Su Hang, and Su Zhifei is currently in Jin Ling and can't get away for a while."
"Don't worry about me." Su Chengfeng said lightly: "Now no one knows I'm in Su Hang. Even if they scold me outside, they can't do anything to me, so hurry up and get the Ito family matter settled! Even if we can't reach cooperation with the Ito family, we must never, never let them join hands with the Ye family. Once they get together with the Ye family, we will be in big trouble!"
In Su Chengfeng's eyes, the Ye family has always been his mortal enemy.
The Su family and the Ye family are like two bullies in the village. In terms of combat effectiveness, the Su family is slightly stronger than the Ye family. However, if these two sides really fight, it is impossible for the Su family to win easily. Therefore, the two sides have not had a major conflict in the true sense.
Now, the Su family accidentally sprained their ankle, and the injury won't recover for a while, so their combat effectiveness is a bit weaker than the Ye family's. It is equivalent to the situation of the two sides being swapped, but neither side dares to fight the other to the death.
However, at this time, the bully from the neighboring village went to visit the Ye family. What the Su family is most worried about now is that the Ye family and the bully from the neighboring village will join forces to deal with him. If that really happens, the Su family will have almost no power to parry.
Su Shoudao said at this time: "Dad, if they reach a consensus, then their subsequent cooperation is a certainty. It's hard for us to influence their choice!"
Su Chengfeng said lightly: "It doesn't matter if we can't influence their choice. At worst, we can find a way to kill Ito Takehiko in Jin Ling, and then blame it on the Ye family. Think about how the Matsumoto family did it back then? Didn't they just want to kill Su Zhifei and Su Zhiyu, and then blame it on the Ito family?"
Su Shoudao said hesitantly: "Dad, we have already encountered many problems. Ruoli, Su Zhiyu, and Du Haiqing, these are all places where the outside world is targeting the Su family. If we continue to engage in this kind of action, and it is exposed, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Su Chengfeng said coldly: "Unimaginable? I'll tell you what is unimaginable! Once the Ye family and the Ito family reach cooperation, they will definitely take this opportunity to expand rapidly in the field of ocean shipping. It is very likely that they will destroy all our foundations in a few months. If we lose this business, our strength will be a head shorter than the Ye family's. If we lose this business and the Ye family picks it up, then this reversal will make us even inferior to the Ye family!"
As he spoke, Su Chengfeng said with a cold expression: "No matter what, we cannot lose this big cake of ocean shipping! To take a step back, even if I, Su Chengfeng, cannot eat this bowl of rice, I must smash the Ye family's rice bowl! I can't eat this bowl of rice, anyone else can eat it, but the Ye family cannot!"
