Feng Yu was overjoyed to get Professor Liang's promise. Professor Liang might be part of his team in 1997, and the Hong Kong Government should have a backup candidate, right?
But it's not a big deal. Feng Yu's funds are also targeting Quantum Fund, and it's the same as the Hong Kong Government. Maybe Feng Yu will be hired by the Hong Kong Government as a financial expert.
Feng Yu attended classes every day and went to the movies or fishing in his spare time. Compared to Feng Yu, Fu Guangzheng and Li Zekai were very busy.
Fu Guangzheng's business in Hong Kong is fine. His father is helping him to look after his business in Hong Kong. But Li Zekai is different. He needs to manage Pacific Century Group, and he still needs to go to China to deal with Tai Hua Supermarket.
Whenever Pacific Century Group is in trouble, Li Zekai had to rush back from China to deal with it. After settling everything, Li Zekai wanted to rest in Hong Kong for a few days and called Feng Yu to meet him for dinner.
… …
"Is this the restaurant you were talking about? I had been to this restaurant before. Although the food is good, it is not the best. I remember that this restaurant was bought by the Fu Family before Lunar New Year. "Li Zekai had wanted to go to the Peninsula Hotel, but Feng Yu said it was better.
"Did you see that? Although the name of the restaurant is still the same, there are three words in front. Quanjude!" Feng Yu pointed to the signboard.
"Quanjude? I have heard of that restaurant. Isn't it a restaurant in Beijing? I think it is a duck restaurant. The Fu Family bought it and changed it to a duck restaurant? "Li Zekai asked curiously.
Feng Yu wanted to laugh. If Fu Guangzheng heard what Li Zekai said, he would surely start a fight.
"It's a chain restaurant. The original chefs are still around, and they only added some signature dishes." Feng Yu explained.
The doorman opened the door, and Feng Yu and Li Zekai entered. The lobby manager saw Feng Yu and jogged over. "General Manager Feng, Second Young Master Li, the seats upstairs are reserved for you. I'll show you up."
Li Zekai looked at the manager and then looked at Feng Yu. It was not strange for others to recognize him. Feng Yu's appearance in Hong Kong's newspapers was no less than those celebrities. But how did this manager know Feng Yu? He couldn't possibly say that Feng Yu often came to this restaurant to eat, right?
When they arrived at the table, there was no menu. Li Zekai was about to ask when he saw the waiter pushing a dining cart over. He looked at Feng Yu in surprise. You even ordered the dishes?
Usually, when two people ate together, especially friends, it was rare for one person to order the dish first. They had to give the other person a chance to order the dish they liked. This was not the impression that Feng Yu gave Li Zekai before. Was he going to recommend something good today?
Roast duck!
Li Zekai had eaten Quanjude's roast duck before. It was not like he had not been to Beijing before. With his status and wealth, he must pick the best delicacies.
Feng Yu had chosen this restaurant to recommend this roast duck to him?
Li Zekai had been busy in China and did not pay attention to Hua Xia's food rankings. But he does not like to eat roast duck. He also does not like to eat Quanjude's roast duck.
"Brother Kai, this roast duck was modified according to Hong Kong's taste. Try it."
Li Zekai tasted it, and his eyes brighten up. This roast duck was much better than the roast duck he had eaten in China! Seems like he had made the right choice to come to this restaurant.
"Brother Feng, do you frequent this restaurant?" Li Zekai asked.
"I have only been here a few times. Are you curious as to how that manager knew me? It's because I have shares in this restaurant. "Feng Yu smiled.
"This restaurant is set up by you and the Fu Family?" Li Zekai was surprised. Feng Yu and the Fu Family had set up a restaurant together?
No matter if it was Feng Yu or the Fu Family, which one of them could not afford to open a restaurant? They could even open 10 restaurants. Also, was running a restaurant very profitable? Even if this restaurant had roast duck as its signature dish and had more customers, how much could it make? With this amount of money, why not invest in other things?
"Not only this restaurant. Guangzheng and I had asked the Fu Family to help us acquire some restaurants and set up a company. We will partner with Quanjude in China to set up Quanjude Group. We will use the Quanjude brand to set up Asia's biggest F&B chain. Today, I'm here to ask you to help me taste the taste of the newly adjusted roast duck, especially the sauce. "
Quanjude Group? Asia's biggest F&B chain?
It might not be profitable if there was only one restaurant. But if it was a chain, it would be profitable. If it was listed in the future, the share prices might not shoot up, but it would not be affected by other factors. The share prices should be rising steadily.
Li Zekai thought about it and felt this F&B chain was a good investment.
"Good. When did you all set up this F&B partnership? "Li Zekai asked casually.
"About a month ago."
Li Zekai was slightly disappointed. He had known Feng Yu for quite some time since a month ago. Feng Yu had asked Fu Guangzheng for this business and not him. Seems like in Feng Yu's eyes, he was still not as good as Fu Guangzheng.
"This plan was made last year. At that time, the Fu Family had acquired restaurants, and many people were laughing at them. But after these restaurants were merged into Quanjude, their value increased. Also, after they joined Quanjude Group, all the restaurants' sales had increased. The highest monthly sales had increased by 50%! Although the investment is slightly higher, we can earn back the money in 2 to 3 years. We think it is still worth it. "
Li Zekai was thinking in his heart. It was more than worth it. It was a great deal! All the restaurants' sales had increased, and their profits had increased. In 2 to 3 years, they will be able to earn back their capital, and after that, it will be pure profits. At that time, the company should be listed and will be able to make high profits. How come I am not part of this investment?
But Li Zekai thought about it. If Feng Yu had asked him to join, he might not be able to participate. This was a big restaurant. Including the properties, it would cost at least a few tens of millions. He had heard about the Fu Family acquiring the restaurants. With his funds, what can he do?
Unless he continues to ask his father for money. But his father had just given him a sum of money to invest in the supermarket. Will he give him more money immediately? Sigh … If only I had known Feng Yu a few years earlier.
If only I had known Feng Yu a few years earlier. Compared to Fu Guangzheng, he was the second son of the Li Family. What about Fu Guangzheng? He was only Fu Rongjing's second son!
Feng Yu will surely choose to cooperate with him. That means he will be the most successful second generation in Hong Kong and not Fu Guangzheng!
"Brother Feng, if you have any good investments in the future, you must ask me to join." Li Zekai said.
"Sure, sure. Oh, I need to discuss something with you today. Can you invite your father over to cut the ribbon for the grand opening of Tai Hua Supermarket? "
