Chapter 239 Who are you?
Jimmy quickly stood up, took the coffee, and thanked Ruan Mei.
Although it was his first time to come to Brother Hao's office, he was very clear that given Brother Hao's status, even an inconspicuous secretary around him was not someone a scoundrel like him could afford to offend.
What's more, she is a female secretary.
After a while, Lin Zehao, wearing a white shirt, walked slowly out of the lounge.
Seeing this, Jimmy quickly put down the coffee in his hand and said respectfully, "Brother Hao."
Lin Zehao nodded slightly, looked him up and down, and said, "Don't be nervous, sit down."
Then he walked straight to the desk, picked up a document, and while flipping through it, asked, "What's your name?"
Jimmy didn't dare to hesitate at all and said quickly: "My name is Li Jiayuan, and my friends call me Jimmy."
Lin Zehao sat back in the boss chair, put down the documents in his hand, stared into his eyes, and asked casually, "Why did you join the club?"
Faced with a seemingly simple question, Jimmy didn't dare to be careless at all. After thinking for a while, he said, "I dare not deceive Brother Hao. In fact, at the beginning, I just wanted to do some small business to make a living..."
"But you know the situation in Hong Kong Island. Even if you run a small business, you can't survive without the support of the community."
"I looked down on those messy societies. Later, I heard that Shing Wo was the most promising society in Hong Kong Island, and you, Hao, were a visionary leader, so I just joined."
After much thought, Jimmy decided to tell Brother Hao the truth, not daring to lie in the slightest.
Even though he prided himself on being smart, he had no confidence that he could lie to Brother Hao without being discovered.
Instead of using tricks, it is better to show your sincere side, which can also leave a good impression on the boss.
Anyway, Jimmy has a very high degree of identification with Shenghe and wants to develop well in this big family.
Facing Jimmy's honesty, Lin Zehao did not comment, but just nodded and continued to ask: "I heard that you used to sell pirated videotapes, are you still doing it now?"
Hearing this, Jimmy subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Brother Hao had already checked out all his details. If he chose to lie, he didn't know whether he could see the sun tomorrow.
Thinking of this, Jimmy said a little embarrassedly: "Yes, I used to sell pirated videotapes. I also sold the company's "A Better Tomorrow"..."
"But I don't continue to do it now, because the big brother I follow has divided the responsibilities of each person very carefully, and this is not my responsibility."
Lin Zehao smiled, pointed to a document on the table, and said, "I am planning to set up a jewelry company recently. Here is the document. You can take a look."
Jimmy suppressed his inner excitement, stood up from the sofa, walked to the desk, picked up the document on the table, and began to read it carefully.
After a while, Jimizi put down the documents in his hand and asked, "Brother Hao, are you planning to use the jade series as your main product?"
Although he didn't have much education, he had a good business sense. He made a lot of money selling pirated videotapes before, otherwise he wouldn't have been targeted by so many gangs.
"That's right. Emerald is our current strategic goal. I have the resources in this area and can keep the cost very low."
"Everyone in the society says you have a good business sense. I called you here today because I want to know what you would do if you were asked to manage this jewelry company."
Lin Zehao took out a Marlboro cigarette, put it in his mouth and lit it.
As the smoke dissipated, Jimmy felt that Brother Hao's temperament suddenly changed, causing his heart to tighten uncontrollably, and he quickly became extremely alert.
He knew that this was a test in disguise. If he could give an answer that satisfied Brother Hao, his identity would be transformed from a lowly worker to the head of a jewelry company!
If you fail, you probably won't have another chance to make a comeback for a long time.
Thinking of this, Jimmy started to think frantically, and after organizing his words, he slowly said, "With your financial resources and support, those other small jewelry companies are simply no match for us."
"Currently, Chow Tai Fook is undoubtedly the leader in Hong Kong's jewelry industry, but Chow Sang Sang, as the first listed jewelry and gold company in Hong Kong, is also very powerful."
"I think our main competitors at Hutchison Jewellery at this stage are Chow Sang Sang and Chow Tai Fook!"
Hearing this, Lin Zehao did not say anything, but just listened quietly.
After a pause, Jimizi continued, "I don't know much about jewelry design, but I think we need to have good enough raw materials first. On this basis, we can invite internationally renowned designers to design it, and then find well-known actresses in the entertainment industry who fit the image to create awareness."
"From the very beginning, we placed Hutchison Jewelry in a high-end position, planting the seeds of high-end brands in consumers' minds..."
Seeing that Brother Hao was still indifferent, Jimmy gritted his teeth and said, "If Brother Hao trusts me, I have the confidence to lead Hutchison Jewellery to become the world's leading jewelry brand!"
"If I can't finish it, I'm willing to let Brother Hao deal with me!"
The opportunity to succeed is right before his eyes, and it is the serious industry that Jimmy Zai most aspires to, so of course he doesn't want to miss it!
A scoundrel like him, when faced with an opportunity, would risk his life!
Hearing Jimmy's military order, Lin Zehao exhaled a puff of smoke, glanced at him, and said slowly: "In fact, what I value most when hiring people is loyalty, and ability is second."
“No matter how smart a person is, if he cannot be used by me, he is worthless.”
"You are a smart person. You should understand the consequences of joining a society. If you want to gain benefits by using the society's name, you must work for the society."
Lin Zehao put out his cigarette butt in the ashtray and continued in a magnetic voice: "As long as you are a member of the club for one day, you will be a member for the rest of your life." "Even if you retire, as long as the club needs you, you can't refuse, because most of the time, it's you who need the club."
"Jimmy, I'm giving you a chance. If you don't agree with Shenghe, the door is right there. You can leave now. I promise that no one will embarrass you in the future."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jimmy fell to his knees with a thud, his heart beating so fast that it seemed like it would jump out of his throat in the next second.
Although Lin Zehao's tone was calm and light, he did not feel any spring breeze on his face. Instead, he felt as if an invisible hand was squeezing his heart.
His breathing became difficult, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his suit was already soaked with sweat.
Jimmy suppressed his fear and said in a sincere tone, "Brother Hao, I did think about leaving the club at the beginning, but as I spent more and more time in Shenghe, I found that this place is different from other clubs. I like the atmosphere here very much. It gives me a feeling of home..."
"Since I have chosen this path, I will never regret it. In this life, I will be Shenghe's person in life and Shenghe's ghost in death!"
"I agree with Shenghe now, and I agree with you as a big boss even more!"
As he spoke, Jimmy began to kowtow.
However, before his forehead touched the floor, a slender, white hand held his arm and he could not move forward even a bit.
"Okay, get up. You'll be the head of the jewelry company from now on. Going out with a bandage on your head will only lower the company's image."
As he said that, Lin Zehao helped Jimmy up.
There is no doubt about the ability of a smart person like Jimmy, but he must be trained before he can be reused.
After Jimmy stood up, his eyes were full of surprise, and he had a new understanding of Brother Hao's power.
He didn't expect that Brother Hao, who looked like an elegant nobleman with a well-proportioned body, not the big and fat type, could easily help him up with just one hand.
This kind of power really surprised Jimmy.
But soon, he was filled with the joy of becoming the head of a jewelry company. His face was filled with excitement and his eyes were even a little wet.
He wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, bowed respectfully to Lin Zehao, and said: "Brother Hao, thank you for giving me the opportunity, I will definitely not let you down!"
At this moment, Jimmy was extremely grateful to Lin Zehao!
Although he has always boasted of his outstanding abilities, in this era, the thing that is most lacking is talent.
Until now, Jimmy finally met a mentor who appreciated him and got the chance to prove himself!
As the saying goes, a woman dresses up to please the man she loves, and a man dies for the man who understands him.
From now on, when Brother Hao gives an order, Jimmy won't blink an eye even if it means mountains of swords and seas of fire!
Lin Zehao smiled and nodded, saying, "I believe in your ability, sit down."
Jimmy sat back on the sofa, his mood completely different from before.
It really is true that one thought can lead to heaven or hell.
"When you go back, make a plan and hand it over to me as soon as possible. I will notify the heads of other companies under the group to cooperate with you in terms of resources. Don't worry."
"My requirements for Hutchison Jewellery are very simple, that is, to take the absolutely high-end route and become the only choice for Hong Kong's wealthy socialites and aristocratic young ladies!"
"We will earn money from whoever has more money. Do you understand?"
Lin Zehao was playing with a Dupont lighter in his hand with a faint smile on his face, but the words he spoke were of great weight.
Jimmy suddenly understood and nodded heavily, "I understand, Brother Hao, we just make money from rich people!"
After chatting for a few more words, Jimmy greeted Lin Zehao respectfully and turned to leave the office.
Compared with his previous nervousness, at this moment, he became confident and full of beautiful aspirations for the future.
Joining He Sheng He and following a big boss like Hao Ge is definitely the best choice Jimmy has ever made in his life!
As soon as Jimmy walked out of the company building, he saw a man in a dark blue suit walking towards him. He had an ordinary appearance, a slightly dark complexion, a short haircut, and looked to be in his thirties.
Flip-flops quickly stopped Jimmy, handed him a cigarette, and asked politely, "Hello, Brother Hao, are you working here?"
Jimmy looked him up and down, took the cigarette, but did not smoke it. Instead, he asked, "Who are you? What do you want to see Brother Hao for?"
Flip Flops looked hesitant, thought for a moment, and asked, "Brother, from what you said, can I see Brother Hao directly?"
"I won't hide it from you. I have something important to report to Brother Hao. If your status is not high enough, it's better for you not to know."
Jimmy didn't care. He just glanced at Flip-Flops and said, "Looking at your appearance, I know you are a gangster. I guarantee you won't even be able to get past the security at the door."
