Chapter 163 Am I too easy to talk to, or are you looking for death?
"Brother Hao." There was a hint of respect in Jimmie's voice.
Liu Hao nodded slightly and motioned Jimmy to sit down.
He slowly opened his mouth: "Jimmy, what do you think of Han Bin?" His tone was calm and deep, as if he was asking an insignificant question, but his eyes revealed his expectation for the answer.
Jimmy was slightly stunned, then became serious.
He carefully recalled his encounter with Han Bin, then slowly spoke: "Brother Hao, I think Han Bin is indeed a shrewd and capable businessman. He is knowledgeable and the cooperation ideas he proposed also have great business prospects.
We just talked for over an hour, and I found that he has a very deep understanding of the North American market and the information resources he provided are also convincing. "
After hearing this, Liu Hao nodded slightly, with a barely perceptible smile on his lips.
He was well aware of Jimi's caution and sharpness. Since Jimi had such a high opinion of Han Bin, Han Bin was indeed a partner worth cooperating with.
"So, what do you think of his business ability?" Liu Hao continued to ask, his eyes sharper, as if testing Jimmy's bottom line.
Jimmy took a deep breath and said firmly: "Brother Hao, I can say with certainty that Han Bin is an excellent businessman.
He not only has a keen insight into the market, but also has extensive business experience and resources. I believe that by working with him, we will be able to open the door to the North American market."
After hearing this, Liu Hao nodded with satisfaction. He believed in Jimmy's judgment.
He gazed out the window at the night, a surge of pride welling up in his heart. He knew that to succeed in the business world, he needed sharp insight and decisive decision-making. And Han Bin was exactly the partner he needed.
"Very good, Jimmy. Since you have such a high opinion of Han Bin, let's cooperate with him. However, we need to make a detailed plan to ensure that every step is foolproof." Liu Hao's voice was firm and powerful, as if he was giving orders to Jimmy.
Jimmy was cheered up after hearing this, as he was well aware of Liu Hao's ambition and rigorous style.
He immediately began to think about the specific plan for cooperation, and then slowly said, "Brother Hao, I think we can start by exporting Hong Kong specialties. Hong Kong-produced tea is of high quality, but its market share in North America is still very small. Han Bin has a complete sales channel and network, which can help us open up the North American tea market."
Liu Hao nodded slightly after hearing this. He thought this plan was feasible.
Tea, as a traditional Chinese specialty, has huge potential in the North American market. Moreover, by exporting tea, they can gradually expand their business scope in the North American market.
"So, what should we do specifically?" Liu Hao asked, his eyes revealing his attention to detail.
Jimi Zai was well prepared. He immediately elaborated on his plan: "We plan to start with a pilot program to export 1000 tons of premium Xiangjiang Tieguanyin to North America. Han Bin will be responsible for sales and promotion. If this first step goes well, we will gradually expand our tea business in North America."
Liu Hao pondered for a moment, then nodded with satisfaction. "This is a good plan. Tea export is indeed a good entry point. The North American market has broad prospects, and we must seize the opportunity to open up the market."
Jimi was delighted to hear this, knowing that Liu Hao had agreed to the plan. He immediately began to prepare for the project to go smoothly.
The days that followed were busy and fulfilling. Jimizi first stockpiled over 500 tons of premium Tieguanyin tea from tea distributors, fully preparing for the pilot export program. He then contacted Han Bin's sales team, providing them with samples of the latest tea and asking them to conduct market research and develop a promotional plan.
Han Bin did not disappoint his expectations and soon gave him a positive promotion suggestion.
He said he would arrange for tea samples to be sampled by local tea merchants and tea associations in North America, while also building word-of-mouth on social media. Jimmie was impressed by the proposal and confirmed the shipping date for the first batch of tea.
Finally, on a sunny morning, 200 tons of premium Tieguanyin tea arrived in the United States under the watchful eyes of many. Jimmie anxiously awaited the customs inspection results, silently praying that everything went smoothly. Fortunately, the tea passed customs inspection and officially entered the North American market.
Jimi immediately shared the good news with Han Bin and Liu Hao. Han Bin was delighted and immediately began promoting and selling the tea. He leveraged his resources and connections in the North American market to quickly bring the tea to market.
Meanwhile, Jimizi was also busy. He closely monitored tea sales in the North American market and stayed in constant contact with Han Bin. Through tastings and promotion on social media, Dongxing Tieguanyin gradually gained popularity among tea lovers in North America. Han Bin also spared no effort in advertising on major sales platforms to promote the tea brand in North America.
With the joint efforts of both parties, the first batch of tea was quickly sold out. When Jimi Zai told Liu Hao the news, Liu Hao nodded with great satisfaction: "Very good, Jimi Zai. You did a great job. It seems that our plan has achieved initial success."
After hearing this, Jimmie felt a surge of pride in his heart.
He immediately reported his next plan to Liu Hao: "Brother Hao, I think we can continue to expand our tea market share in North America. We can prepare another batch of tea for shipment to North America, and at the same time, strengthen our promotion efforts on social media."
Liu Hao pondered for a moment, then nodded approvingly. "This is a good plan. Tea exports are indeed a market with great potential. We must continue to increase our investment to ensure we gain a firm foothold in the North American market."
Jimi immediately began preparing for the next shipment of tea. He again stockpiled sufficient tea from tea distributors and contacted Han Bin's sales team. With the combined efforts of both parties, the second batch of tea quickly arrived in North America.
This time, Jimizi is even more confident. He believes that with the joint efforts of him and Liu Hao, Dongxing Tieguanyin will surely achieve greater success in the North American market.
However, just as they celebrated the success of their tea exports, an unexpected visitor shattered their peace. Upon learning of Liu Hao's collaboration with Liang Kun, Jiang Tianyang was filled with anger. He felt that he was the future heir to the Hongxing Society, but now, his chance had been snatched away by two outsiders, Liang Kun and Liu Hao.
Jiang Tianyang has been developing in Thailand for many years and has accumulated a lot of connections. Among them is a group of pirates who go out to sea to plunder. He decided to use these pirates to take revenge on Liu Hao and Liang Kun.
That night, Jiang Tianyang arranged a secret meeting with the pirate leader on a yacht. He stood on the deck of the yacht, facing the sea breeze, with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Brothers, I'm here to ask you for something important." Jiang Tianyang said straight to the point.
The pirate leader spoke first, his voice deep and powerful: "Brother Tianyang, it's been a long time. It's truly rare to meet you this time."
Jiang Tianyang smiled slightly, his eyes flashing with calculation. "You're welcome. We are all from the underworld, and trust is the most important thing. I'm looking for you today because I have something important to discuss with you."
The pirate nodded and motioned Jiang Tianyang to continue.
"Recently, Hongxing and Tung Sing have been getting closer and closer, especially the new leader, Liang Kun, who has teamed up with Liu Hao from Tung Sing to export tea to North America. This business should have been in my pocket." Jiang Tianyang said this with a hint of unwillingness and anger in his tone.
Hearing this, the pirate's eyes flashed with cunning. "Oh? Is that true? Brother Tianyang, you and I are both businessmen, and even more so, desperate criminals. Since someone dares to steal your business, why don't we join forces and teach them a lesson?"
Jiang Tianyang heard this and a satisfied smile appeared on his face. "That's absolutely right. As long as you can help me get this business back, I, Jiang Tianyang, will definitely not treat you unfairly."
Jiang Tianyang then detailed the details of the Hongxing-Tung Sing collaboration, as well as the actions of Liang Kun and Liu Hao. His tone was filled with anger and resentment, as if he wanted to pour out all his resentment.
"That Liang Kun, relying on the fact that he is the new leader, dares to steal my business. And that Liu Hao, does he think that he can do whatever he wants just because he is the boss of Dongxing? I, Jiang Tianyang, have been in the underworld for so many years and have never been afraid of anyone!" Jiang Tianyang was already a little excited when he said this, and his fists were clenched, as if he was about to swing out at any time.
The pirate looked at Jiang Tianyang and felt secretly proud. He knew that Jiang Tianyang had been blinded by anger, which was exactly what he wanted. So, he patted Jiang Tianyang on the shoulder and comforted him, "Brother Tianyang, don't get excited. Since you have decided to take revenge, let's plan it carefully."
Jiang Tianyang nodded, took a deep breath, and calmed himself down. Then, he began to describe in detail the route of Han Bin's ship and the time and place of their planned robbery.
"Han Bin is the captain responsible for transporting tea. He delivers tea to North America along this route every month. This time, we will set up an ambush at this location, and it will definitely succeed." After Jiang Tianyang finished speaking, he pointed to a point on the map.
The pirate looked at the map and nodded. "This place is great, a perfect ambush spot. Don't worry, I've never failed."
Jiang Tianyang took out a check from his pocket and handed it to the pirate: "This is the deposit. I will give you the rest after the deal is done."
The pirate took the check, glanced at the number on it, and nodded with satisfaction: "Brother Tianyang is really straightforward. Don't worry, I will definitely help you get this done beautifully."
The two discussed some details and then left the port. Jiang Tianyang returned to the Hongxing Society and began to make secret preparations, while the pirates returned to their lair, gathered their men, and began to formulate a robbery plan.
Time passed, and finally the day arrived when Han Bin's tea-carrying ship would pass by. The pirates and their men had already set up an ambush at the designated location. They hid in the dark, quietly waiting for Han Bin's arrival.
When Han Bin's tea-carrying ship slowly came into their sight, the pirates immediately ordered: "Prepare to fire!"
Upon hearing this, his men immediately aimed their cannons at Han Bin's tea-carrying ship. With roars and roars, shells rained down on the tea-carrying ship. Han Bin and his crew were completely unprepared for the ambush and immediately fell into chaos.
The tea ship's hull was riddled with holes and the fire spread rapidly. Han Bin shouted from the deck: "Help, lower the lifeboat quickly, and everyone prepare to abandon ship!"
Upon hearing this, the crew members rushed to the lifeboat. Han Bin didn't care about anything else and jumped out of the lifeboat. Watching the tea ship gradually sinking in the flames, his heart was filled with anger and resentment.
The pirates and their men took advantage of the chaos and successfully seized the tea ship. They swarmed in and stole all the tea from the cabin onto their own ship. Looking at the full load of tea, the pirates smiled triumphantly.
The pirates returned to the port with the stolen tea and immediately contacted Jiang Tianyang. Seeing the full load of tea, Jiang Tianyang smiled with satisfaction. He patted the pirate on the shoulder and said, "This time, it's really thanks to you. Don't worry, I'll transfer the remaining money to you right away."
The pirate smiled and nodded. "You're too polite, Brother Tianyang. Since we're collaborating, we must trust each other. This success is also due to the accurate intelligence you provided."
The two smiled at each other, as if everything was self-explanatory. Jiang Tianyang had finally achieved his revenge, inflicting considerable loss on Liu Hao and Liang Kun. The pirates, however, had received their generous reward.
Han Bin, meanwhile, fled back to Hong Kong in disgrace. He was filled with anger and resentment, knowing that this incident must have been Jiang Tianyang's doing. He immediately sent his men to contact Liu Hao and request a meeting as soon as possible. He wanted to report the matter in person and let Liu Hao know Jiang Tianyang's actions.
Soon, Han Bin received a reply from Liu Hao. Embarrassed and angry, he arrived at East Star headquarters. When he entered Liu Hao's office, he found him sitting at his desk, fiddling with a wine glass.
"Brother Han, why do you look like this? What happened?" Liu Hao couldn't help but feel surprised when he saw Han Bin's appearance.
Han Bin said angrily, "I was transporting Dongxing Tieguanyin tea to North America, but we were ambushed by pirates on the way. The ship was bombed and damaged, and all the tea we were carrying was stolen!"
Liu Hao's face darkened upon hearing this. He pondered for a moment, then said, "Could it be Jiang Tianyang's doing?"
Han Bin nodded. "That's my guess. This batch of tea was originally the first shipment of our cooperation, but it was robbed along the way. I guess Jiang Tianyang was behind it."
Liu Hao laughed instead of getting angry after hearing Han Bin's words. He toyed with his wine glass with interest and said, "Jiang Tianyang, that fool who doesn't know how to live or die. He didn't learn his lesson last time I beat him away, and now he dares to provoke me again? Humph, he really is tired of living!"
