"There are no such coincidences in the world, but now that I'm here, I won't be afraid of you being naughty." Chen Xi snorted coldly while standing in the elevator.
“Aren’t you curious about your father’s wedding tonight?” Xu Yun leaned against him and stretched out her white palm to touch Chen Xi’s face.
Smelling the fragrance of the other party, Chen Xi frowned.
To be honest, he doesn't like perfume too much, the light smell is acceptable.
But the fragrance on Xu Yun's body is a little stronger.
At such a young age, she insists on dressing up deliberately and maturely, which makes her seem a bit nondescript.
"No interest, he didn't send me a wedding invitation."
"Gee, you are really funny. I asked my son to attend the wedding, do I need to send a wedding invitation?" Xu Yun was amused. .
"Hey, by saying so much, don't you just want to trick me into trying to see what my attitude is towards Lao Chen? Or do you want to know whether our father and son really don't get along?" Chen Xi suddenly turned around and came to Xu Yun. A big bang made the other person lean against the elevator wall in fear.
"Why, you can't help it so quickly? Aren't you worried that I asked you to come to the hotel for some other purpose? Man, you never tell the truth." Xu Yun was very worried. He quickly regained his composure, smiled, hugged Chen Xi's arm, and kissed him on the face.
"Don't do this. You are young and act like a veteran in Fengyue. I don't think you have a word of truth in your mouth. These breasts are not fake." Chen Xi gave a bad smile and looked down at Xu. Yun's plumpness.
“You’ll know if you try it?” Xu Yun’s voice was full of ecstasy.
"You think I don't dare?"
"Why are you so hard, it hurts me."
Chen Xi stretched out his big hand and twisted it up, it hurt. The other party almost cried.
At this time, the elevator also reached the floor it was going to. After the elevator door opened, both of them tidied up their clothes.
"It doesn't seem to be fake." Chen Xi deliberately placed his palm in front of Xu Yun and bent it.
"If you want to touch it, you will have the opportunity every day in the future." Xu Yun was not embarrassed, but instead extended the invitation generously.
When meeting this kind of woman, Chen Xi felt as if he had seen Oksana.
The shyness and shyness of women cannot be seen in them at all.
Chen Xi followed Xu Yun and walked forward for a while before realizing that this floor was not a guest room at all, but like an entertainment and leisure area in a bathhouse.
"You can stroll around here while I go inside." Xu Yun turned around and said, and left on high heels without waiting for his consent.
"What the hell, just call me here and leave." Chen Xi looked at the woman's leaving figure, then looked to the side.
In front of a table, several bosses were puffing away with poker cards in their hands.
"Ha, you are Mr. Xu's son, come on, come on, sit down." A bald man playing cards laughed and waved to Chen Xi.
What?
Does this guy mistake me for Xu Jian?
"Hello, bosses!" Chen Xi did not say yes or no, but greeted everyone generously.
"Your dad is discussing something inside, and your sister is probably going to report to him. Come and play cards with us." The bald man handed Chen Xi a cigarette and pointed to the chair next to him.
"I can't." Chen Xi waved his hand deliberately.
"You can learn if you don't know. This man must be involved in eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling. If he doesn't do the same thing, he is a useless person. You are still young and have a lot to learn. Look at your father, he is proficient in everything. ! ”
“Haha, don’t teach me bad things. Xu Jian graduated from a prestigious school.” Another uncle wearing glasses said with a smile to the right of Chen Xi.
"What's wrong with you? Today's young people just read too much and do things in a regular manner, and they can't adapt to society at all." The bald man threw a card.
“Yes, those graduates nowadays don’t know how to be flexible in doing things. If you say a few words to them and teach them some experience, they will think that you are dishonest and all you say is nonsense. Crooked approach." The other man took a puff of smoke.
"Don't say that, Mr. Xu's son is different from others. As the saying goes, a tiger father has no dog son. Mr. Xu has a very flexible mind, and Xu Jian is definitely not a rigid person. ”
"Old Huang, what business are you doing recently?" The bald man next to him grabbed a handful of peanuts and put them in front of Chen Xi, then looked at the man wearing glasses and asked.
Chen Xi understood that this thing was equivalent to the chips on the gambling table.
"Haha, I like to read Buddhist books recently, and my business is related to this. It emphasizes immeasurable merit!" The man wearing glasses looked very polite. He pushed up the glasses on his nose. , took a sip of tea.
"Hahaha, stop teasing me. We are all businessmen. What matters is seeking money. Why are you still seeking merit? Let me tell you what is going on." The bald man said Face curious.
“This is not a secret. I contracted two fish ponds, and then opened up the bottom, and fished and released animals at the same time. Then I recruited a few Internet celebrities to build momentum, and then I went to various high-end communities and sent out invitations, saying that they were going to hold a life-giving ceremony. The reservation fee was 20 yuan and I had a network connection printed on the invitation. The registration was limited to three days.”
"Then what?" the bald man asked hurriedly.
“One month later, more than a thousand people paid the reservation fee.”
“That’s only twenty to thirty thousand yuan. This seems to be inconsistent with your identity. . ”
“Then we went to the fishing pond to pull in a few carts of fish, and then we found a few people and asked them to talk about themselves. If you want to buy fish, just give two or three hundred to each person. Then go to the labor market and find someone who can chant sutras, get a merit box, and then set up a few donation agencies and ask them to donate 5,000 to 20,000. "
"How much is the total income?" Another person also asked impatiently.
"The number of people who participated is definitely not as many as those who made reservations. The total amount collected is several million." The man with glasses replied.
“It looks like a lot, but not much.”
“Don’t worry, the big head is at the back. Pull these people into the KouKou group, and donate more than 10,000 to a group. A group of less than 10,000 people is holding a donation dinner, and then introducing a master to this group of people..." The man with glasses finished slowly.
“Rich people live in high-end residential areas, and rich people are not fools. It’s incredible that you can still make money from this kind of thing.” The bald man touched his chin, somewhat Don't quite believe it.
“A rich man is smart, but his family members may not be smart!” The man with glasses smiled.
"That makes sense." The bald man nodded.
"What business are you doing recently?" the man with glasses asked.
"Well... I have been engaged in the catering industry recently."
"Catering? Haha, I remember you used to sell gutter oil, and now you are back to your old business?" The man with glasses He laughed, threw out a 10, and then motioned for Chen Xi to follow.
Chen Xi was also unequivocal and directly threw a jack.
"No, they sell braised vegetables." The bald man smiled and typed a Q.
"Stewed vegetables? How much money can you make from that thing? I remember you said you wanted to sell leather shoes."
"You can make a profit from leather shoes. The Jiangnan Leather Factory is about to close down. , and also makes leather shoes... As for me, I am I found a few people who knew how to make stewed vegetables, registered a trademark, and opened three stores in a row in a place like a pedestrian street.”
“It’s not a waste to open so many stores in one place. "Huh?" asked the man with glasses.
“Then I arranged for a group of food bloggers to visit the store and let them directly promote it online. Then my store’s sales reached hundreds of thousands a day.”
"Sales are not profits. Counting the expenses you spent on publicity, I think it may be a loss."
"Don't worry, listen to me. I then went to the suburbs to find a factory. He said that he wants to build a central kitchen and promote the integration of production, processing, logistics and distribution, and strive to be listed on the Nasdaq within a few years. "Hahaha, you, a braised vegetable seller, want to be listed in a beautiful country. Only a fool would believe it." Everyone at the table laughed, including Chen Xi.
However, Chen Xi didn't think this was a joke. He had already guessed this person's purpose.
Looking back on my past life, there was such a boss. It turned out that he was selling braised vegetables, and he went to make leather shoes while he was working. But he found that leather shoes were not easy to make, so he went back to sell braised vegetables. This person couldn't be him...
"Don't laugh, of course some people believe it, and some people came from other places to ask about joining. Of course I agreed without hesitation. The company holds 51% of the shares and the partners hold 49%. I'm determined. As a rule, each store recruits twelve partners, one of whom One person holds 5% of the shares and the other eleven hold 4%, and then tell them that the company is for their own good and allows everyone to start an asset-light business.”
“With so many people holding shares, the proportion is too small. , I’m afraid it’s not attractive enough.” Someone questioned. "I will use 58% of the daily turnover as dividends and say that the payback period is very fast. The company will ensure that the store will operate for at least three years."
"Then what?"< br>
“Then I have opened more than a thousand stores.”
"Calculating it this way, you still can't make any money. You don't want to run away..."
"Hey." The bald man put his finger in front of his mouth and made a shushing gesture.
"Old Li, what have you been doing recently?" The man with glasses looked at the person next to him again.
"I didn't do anything. It's not that Chinese medicinal materials are more intoxicating now, so I'll do some Chinese medicinal materials." A man with a Chinese character face and a short buzzcut took a sip of tea on the table.
"Chinese medicinal materials? You can also cure diseases and save people."
"Haha, that's what doctors do. After all, I'm a farmer."
"Tell me about it."
"Now that China is focusing on supporting medicinal material planting projects, I will Rent two offices next to the pharmaceutical company, then register a company, recruit a few financial and agricultural planting experts, and then go to the countryside to build a few acres of farmland and plant medicinal materials. Then we will shoot a promotional video with the title Scientific Planting."
“Then what?”< br>
“Then I vigorously promoted the purchase of Chinese herbal medicines in large quantities and recycled them at 1.5 times the market price. When others approached me for cooperation and wanted to ask what kind of seedlings I planted, I went to test their seedlings. , say they All the seedlings were unqualified, so I sold our seedlings to them for 7 yuan per plant, with a minimum order of 3,000 plants. Thousands of people came to me for cooperation. I then asked experts to provide professional training and guidance to these people. Package recycling.”
"Then where did you get this seedling? Is it a hybrid seedling that you developed yourself?"
"It's nothing to develop. This is just an ordinary seedling. The purchase price is not even one yuan. I also found a group of salesmen. , recruiting investors all over the country, giving them 50% commission "
"What if someone refuses to do it?"
"This is easy to do. Bring them to our planting base for collective brainwashing. You are professional. Are you professional..." He said proudly with a Chinese character face.
"Ha, Hengxiao is engaged in real estate. He can't understand a lot of other business you are talking about here." At this time, a man holding a cigar blew out a puff of smoke.
"Oh? You're still doing decoration. Decoration remains the same. Do you have any new ideas?" The man with glasses smiled.
"The new idea is not entirely new, it's just a change of the old idea." The cigar man chuckled.
“Tell me about it.”
“It’s actually nothing, just find a few designers to build momentum and claim free design.”
“This design Normally the fee would be tens of thousands of dollars, but a better designer would cost tens of thousands.”
"Yes, I mainly offer free quotations and provide material cost quotations. Each one only charges a few hundred yuan, and customers are still willing to pay for this money."
"Then if you do this, the rest will The material dealer is not trying to kill you, the competition in the construction industry is so fierce, everyone is looking up but not looking down." The man with glasses began to worry about the safety of the cigar man.
"What's the point? I didn't completely break the industry rules. They can do this too. Listen to me, and then the customer will ask us to design a quotation, and I will ask the designer to consider the actual needs. Details and practicality. It must be high-end and classy, because that’s what people are doing now.”
“Are you trying to manipulate the materials? It’s not fancy.” The bald man thought for a while. The principle should be similar to his Chinese medicine project.
“It’s a trick, but I paid for it myself, and the price I quoted to the customer was 15% off my cost.” The cigar man added.
"Isn't that a loss to grandma's family?" The bald man scratched his head.
“It’s so cheap. Will customers think it’s fishy when comparing it to other decoration companies?” asked the man with glasses.
“What’s the trick? Everyone in Blue Star knows that the decoration industry is hugely profitable. Aren’t these people still lining up to come to me in the end? Man, he just likes to pick the cheap ones.”
"Then what?"
"Then I told them that we can't do it at this price. We need to add 15% of the profit, the upfront payment must be 60%, and then we promise to provide all-inclusive services within the renderings. .”
"Aren't you kidding? These people must have slapped their butts and left." The bald man laughed and patted the table.
“Haha, on the contrary, human psychology is very complex. When they compare with other places, they will still think that my place is cheaper, because the price I offer is my cost price. The reason why it is not I quote the cost price when I come up. This trick is to adjust their mood and make them feel a sense of gap.
Of course not everyone will come to me, 10 customers. Only 5 or 6 of them would pay, and the rest made excuses saying they were short of funds, but they actually wanted to make a counteroffer.
I just asked them to find other decoration companies, but that was the result. It didn’t take long for the customer to come back.
Then I asked the designer to start changing the water and electricity. After completing the water and electricity changes, I told the customer that a batch of materials was coming in and he had to pay 30%. ”
"Wouldn't it be 90% after this calculation?"
"Yes, then I asked the team to slow down the construction progress and asked the customer to introduce our company to neighbors or people they knew. Wait until they introduce After that, we will resume the construction progress, and then add 50% of the decoration cost in some places..."
Chen Xi couldn't help but smile when he heard what the cigar man said.
In this era, it is true that you give money first and then decorate, but in the end, everyone understands these tricks.
Many people think that decoration companies are cheating money, and business will decrease over time.
Ever since, it has become a practice to build first and pay later, that is, after decorating a project, payment will be made after acceptance. However, there are still endless routines of constructing first and paying later. All in all, no one cares about it.
After hearing what these bosses said, he couldn't help but think of the Internet celebrities in his previous life.
Some time ago, several Internet celebrities appeared on the Internet, and the number of fans actually reached a terrifying hundreds of millions.
Coincidentally, one of the Internet celebrities lived next to him, and online comments said that this Internet celebrity made hundreds of millions a year.
But in fact, the child has some money, but the actual wealth is not as exaggerated as what is said online, and the company is not even ranked locally. Some people compare him with a certain entrepreneur or a certain rich second generation, but there is no comparison at all. He couldn't compare to Chen Yifeng's wealth decades ago.
Just to give an example, there are rumors on the Internet that the villa that the child bought cost 100 million. In fact... Chen Xi's family spent more than 30 million when buying it, and the total cost of decoration was only more than 40 million. Even if the house price continues to rise like this , that house doesn’t even have 100 million. There are villas worth hundreds of millions in the community, but they are not his kind. Locally, only the kings of properties in villa areas can sell for more than 100 million.
On the Internet, there are houses in second-tier cities with hundreds of millions of dollars, all of which are fake prices. If you really want to buy them, just take out the dragon-slaying knife and chop them down, and you can get at least 10 million dollars off them.
Some bosses brag to the outside world that the house they bought is worth hundreds of millions. That is probably the initial price quoted by others, not the transaction price.
Rich people are not stupid. If you ask them to spend hundreds of millions to buy a house in a second- or third-tier city, unless they love their hometown very much, they will definitely buy a house in a first-tier city, because the investment and return are much different.
I remember that in his previous life, Li Yuqing boasted in front of him about which friend had bought a house worth hundreds of millions. You know, the housing prices in Xinlu are higher than those in Jiangcheng. Where do you get so many luxury houses worth hundreds of millions?
As for the Internet celebrity's company building, the location is not very good. I bought it and rebuilt it. In fact, the money spent was not as much as what was said on the Internet.
Some people say that this Internet celebrity can make so much money and must have a huge backing. Chen Xi wants to laugh every time he sees those comments, because even seven out of ten local people Eight of them had never heard of this Internet celebrity at all. The comments made by people on the Internet were either hearsay or deliberately spread.
Some smart bloggers keep up with the popularity and make up random things in order to gain some traffic. However, there are still some people who are not smart enough to believe it.
As for what the local area is like, it can only be said that these people online do not understand the local area at all. In the local area, for a certain period of time, these leaders were almost like the governors of the Wu Kingdom. Maybe the new leaders had been replaced before the locals even remembered their names. If there is a backstage, it is considered powerful in the eyes of ordinary people. In Chen Xi's eyes, it can only be regarded as a small role, because he has seen too many big leaders.
The main reason is that the momentum created by these people is so powerful that ordinary people have to think about it.
As long as you buy a few luxury cars and spend some money to hire celebrities to help you, everyone will think that this person must be unfathomable and rich.
However, everything may be just an illusion. How many billions of goods can be sold in a live broadcast promoted online may be all air.
In order to create the appearance of making money, make the plate bigger to achieve a certain purpose. Because most people will only cooperate with rich people.
Forget it, you can’t see it when you look up, you don’t need to ruin people’s wealth, just do whatever they want.
While Chen Xi was thinking about what happened in his previous life, he looked at several bosses and thought to himself. (End of chapter)
