"Ok. I got it. Thank you, Brother Fu, for your help." After hanging up the phone, Feng Yu was deep in thought.
In Feng Yu's previous life, China's logistics giant, SF Express, had started to do logistics from Hong Kong to Guangdong. The trade between China and Hong Kong was getting more frequent, and relying on the government's ships was not enough.
SF Express was doing round-trip shipping from Guangdong to Hong Kong.
Currently, this company had just started its business, or rather, it had yet to be registered. It did not even have its own truck, let alone a cargo ship. But SF Express's CEO had his own ideas. His slogan was to travel from Foshan to Hong Kong on the same day. This was much faster than the postal service.
The postal service needed one day to travel overseas and one more day to arrive in Hong Kong. It would take at least two days to reach Hong Kong. Some people who needed something urgently could not make it in time.
SF Express's CEO, Wang Wei, was in the printing and dyeing business, and most of the factories here were Hong Kong businessmen. The workers were cheap, the land was cheap, the materials were cheap, and it was not far from Hong Kong. Hong Kong's workers' monthly salary was more than 1,500 RMB. It was more than 10 times of China!
Wang Wei noticed that many of the samples produced by the factories here needed at least two to three days to send to the Hong Kong businessmen. So, he and a few of his friends carried their bags and luggage to help deliver the samples to Hong Kong. At the same time, they brought some Hong Kong goods back to Foshan to sell.
Although they did not have many people, and they did not even have trucks or ships, their business was good. Slowly, many factories knew about them. Wind and rain, they could travel between Hong Kong and Foshan every day.
So, more and more people came to look for Wang Wei and his friends. They asked them to help them transport goods into and out of Hong Kong. Wang Wei and his friends even sent the goods to the designated place.
This was also the prototype of SF Express.
It was worth mentioning that Wang Wei's father was quite wealthy and had set up a small factory. But he was not satisfied with Wang Wei's job. Wang Wei wanted to make this a career and needed money to set up a company. He needs to hire people to receive and receive deliveries in both places.
Feng Yu had wanted to look for Wang Wei for a long time, but Li Dafu had not replied to Feng Yu. Feng Yu knew that people would have different opinions until the right time. That's why Feng Yu did not look for Wang Wei and let him grow on his own.
But now, Wang Wei needed money, and Feng Yu asked Fu Guangzheng to lend him 100,000 RMB for him to set up SF Express.
This 100,000 RMB did not even have any interest, and Fu Guangzheng told them that he was looking for a few young men and wished them success.
Wang Wei and the rest were dumbfounded at that time. Without any collateral, someone had lent them a hundred thousand dollars, and all they needed was an IOU.
Wang Wei had once thought that his father had hired someone to do this as a form of support for him.
This was what Feng Yu wanted. Now, Shunfeng was not worth Feng Yu's investment. Wang Wei was still not mature enough. He was still far from the mysterious leader of the express delivery industry in Feng Yu's previous life.
Ma. Wang, Feng Ma, and Yu. Ma., Yu., Yu, and Up., Yu., and a while, Feng, Ma., Yu, Ma...
Also, Wang Wei was very similar to Feng Yu. He does not like to be interviewed and does not like to be photographed. In Feng Yu's previous life, there was a famous example. A leader from the postal department wanted to meet him, but he rejected him. Maybe the only big news about him was that he bought a plot of land in Hong Kong and built a mansion there. It wasn't the economic section either, but the entertainment section.
In Feng Yu's previous life, Wang Wei had started as a backpacker and brought along 5 other friends to set up a company. Within 10 years, he managed to turn a company with an initial investment of 100,000 RMB into a company worth a few billion RMB. Wang Wei's capability was evident.
Also, SF Express was a logistics giant, second only to EMS. In Feng Yu's previous life, they had 20% of China's market share. But SF Express had never advertised, raised funds, or got listed.
In Wang Wei's words, the company's assets were doing well, and the profits were more than 30%. There was no need for financing, and there were no problems with the company's funds. There was also no need for the company to get listed. The company had enough money to grow.
As for advertisements, there was no need for them. Even if SF Express picks up at 6 pm, the products will be delivered to the customers the next morning. The public's reputation was the best advertisement.
But in Feng Yu's previous life, SF Express had a big problem that prevented it from becoming China's number one logistics company. SF Express had expanded from the South to the North, and some provinces in the Northeast and Northwest were not covered by EMS. Their logistics network was not as good as EMS. After all, the postal department could ensure that every village had a network.
In this life, no matter how much SF Express develops, it would not reach the scale of Feng Yu's previous life. This was because Wind and Rain Logistics had expanded from the Northeast region to Beijing and Tianjin. Although it was not able to reach within a day, the postal department could not do it now.
In another two years, Wind and Rain Logistics will expand faster, and they will also be able to occupy the Central Plains region. At that time, SF Express will also expand from Guangdong to the whole Southeast region.
That will be the time for Wind and Rain Logistics to cooperate with SF Express. With this favor, how could Wang Wei reject Feng Yu's offer to invest in SF Express? If both companies could cooperate or even merge, SF Express could compete with EMS in the future. They might even surpass EMS!
… …
Fu Guangzheng hung up the phone. He was puzzled by Feng Yu's actions. Those few people did not even know Feng Yu. Why did Feng Yu want to lend them money? He even asked Fu Guangzheng to pay attention to them and even took the initiative to borrow money?
Fu Guangzheng looked around and could not tell what these few youngsters were doing. What could they do with this little money if they wanted to do logistics? Even if they do not have a cargo ship, they should at least have their own trucks. These few people did not even have motorcycles. They were using bicycles to deliver deliveries.
Fu Guangzheng mentioned that it was faster to use motorcycles to deliver deliveries, and Wang Wei asked if he could lend him 100,000 RMB. He wanted to buy a few motorcycles to deliver deliveries faster and more convenient.
Wang Wei had treated Fu Guangzheng as his father's friend, and he was not embarrassed to ask. Fu Guangzheng hesitated for a while and thought about how amazing Feng Yu was. He nodded and lent Wang Wei 100,000 RMB to buy motorcycles. Anyway, Feng Yu had only asked him to lend 100,000 RMB to Wang Wei. It was not a problem for him to borrow money from Fu Guangzheng.
If Feng Yu really wanted to help Wang Wei, then he would owe Fu Guangzheng a favor. Fu Guangzheng did not know that Feng Yu wanted to invest in Wang Wei for future cooperation.
After all, Wang Wei and the rest were not worth investing in. Fu Guangzheng could not see any potential in this small company. Fu Guangzheng did not even care if they could earn 100,000 RMB a year.
He was only used to following Feng Yu. Even if Feng Yu was giving him 100,000 RMB for free, he did not mind. The money he had earned from following Feng Yu was more than 100,000 RMB!
After Lunar New Year, Feng Yu returned to Bing City early. He wanted to contribute to the development of the district. He was accompanied by Farm Chief Wen Deguang.
