The sound of opening the door came.
Lu Hui, wearing a blue and white floral dress, opened the door and walked in.
Already almost eight months pregnant, her belly is already very big.
Xu Liang quickly stepped forward to help.
"I can walk without help."
"I know you are great, sit down quickly."
Wait for her to sit down.
“What did the doctor say when I went to the hospital for a checkup?”
Lu Hui touched her belly with a happy smile on her face.
"The doctor said that my son is very healthy."
"That's good. When this brat is born, you can rest for two years and we can have another baby."
"You think I'm a pig, born in a litter."
"Hey, more children are more blessings, I just like children."
Xu Liang put his arms around the beautiful woman's plump shoulders and smiled.
Lu Hui was immersed in his arms and felt unprecedented happiness. It would be great if time could stay at this moment.
After a long time.
“That’s right.”
As if thinking of something, Lu Hui quickly raised her head.
"I have negotiated with the Magic Capital to purchase Marley's painting materials for 76 million Chinese coins and assume all debts. The contract is in the drawer. Please help me see if there is anything missing."
"When you went to the hospital for a check-up this morning, I had already checked it, and there was basically nothing wrong with it.
Besides, the group's legal team is much more professional than me."
"I let you It’s not about the legal provisions, it’s about the future development direction of Marley’s paintings that I wrote on the back. "
"No problem, it’s good."
"Really?"
Xu Liang: "Of course. The price of Marley's painting materials is indeed much more expensive for ordinary art students in rural high schools. A box of 100 ml gouache costs more than ten yuan.
At least 20 colors are needed to satisfy a gouache painting.
A can of paint can be used up in two months at most, and the white powder, plain green, bright red and so on can be used up quickly. If you use a lot of colors, you may need to buy them in two or three weeks.”
Whether it is oil painting or gouache, white powder and plain are necessary blenders. One is for increment and the other is for darkening. .
"In addition to the consumption of drawing paper, pencils, etc.
A month's investment costs two hundred yuan, which ordinary rural students cannot afford."
Xu Liang himself studied art.
Very clear about the prices of painting materials.
He is an ordinary rural person and also knows the economic situation of rural students.
"So I plan to re-establish a low-end brand, the price is about half of Marley." Lu Huidao.
“Is there already such a brand on the market?”
“Yes. A box of green bamboo painting materials from Hebei Province only costs five yuan, which is very cheap and occupies a huge low-end market. market."
Xu Liang said with a smile: "Have you ever considered direct acquisition? It saves trouble and effort, and you can directly obtain mature channels and markets."
"Of course I have considered it, but. They want too much.”
"How much?"
"200 million Chinese coins."
"Although the revenue of Qingzhu Painting Materials is higher than that of Marley, the low-end profits are too thin. Two hundred million is completely Treat me like a scapegoat," Lu Hui complained.
“It’s also possible that they don’t want to sell at all, so they simply offer a high price to make you quit.”
“That’s possible, but there are also a few low-end painting material companies. , I have been contacted.
If I still can’t buy it, I will create my own brand, which will give me a channel for new dreams and I won’t worry about making money. "
Xu Liang smiled and nodded. He has no interest in this kind of small business. It is enough for Lu Hui to worry about it.
He is concerned about another point.
< br>"How is the New Dream online website doing? "
"According to your request, I divided the New Dream online education website into three, responsible for adult education and the 'Class Workshop' focusing on IT training.
A ‘new dream’ that provides mainly online art training.
‘K12’ providing subject training. ”
After Lu Hui joined New Dream, as the company’s chairman and chief operating officer, in addition to being responsible for the company’s overall situation, she also focused on New Dream’s online education.
She made a hodgepodge as soon as she came up. The traditional New Dream education website was split into New Dream and K12, and at the same time, a 'Kegongchang' responsible for adult training was added. "We have a certain foundation in New Dream and K12. Although they are separated, But the account is universal.
There are currently 15.98 million registered users.
Total revenue is 150 million Huaxia coins.
Net profit is 73 million Chinese coins.
Although the profits are higher than offline, at this stage, parents are still more accustomed to registering their children offline, and online revenue is not high.
But it develops very quickly.
According to big data calculations, New Dream's online education will grow at an annual rate of 30% as the Internet speed increases and the number of people online increases rapidly.
Three years later, online income will exceed 1 billion Huaxia coins.
This is the fastest growing sector among all businesses of New Dream.
Kegongchang has just been launched. Although we have accumulated a large number of offline courses in this area, development takes time. Currently there are only about 200,000 registered users.
But I am thinking about whether to separate IT training and set up a separate website while the website is just developing?
After all, the content of offline training is too complicated.
Administrative training services, including financial training, personnel training, and management training, are somewhat different from IT-based programming, interior design, and animation design. ”
Xu Liang: “More professional market segments with better content are certainly the future of Internet development.
A website with clear positioning will make it easier to find customers.
However, it is impossible for New Dream to do online business and cover all online training directions.
Too much means confusion.
So the ‘Kegongchang’ focuses on the IT industry, supplemented by IT-related software training. Other businesses can be added along, but there is no need to set up a separate website.
If you want to continue to expand your New Dream business, I have an idea here. ”
Lu Hui’s eyes lit up.
She knew that her man had always been far-sighted and resourceful.
"Wait a moment."
Xu Liang stood up and handed a piece of information on his desk to Lu Hui's hand.
“The number of people who applied for the postgraduate entrance examination in 2000 was 392,000, an increase of 22.88% over 1999.
The number of people who applied for the postgraduate entrance examination in 2001 was 460,000, an increase of 17.35% over last year.
The number of people applying for the postgraduate entrance examination in 2005 was 1.172 million, an increase of 24.02% from 2004.
In the past five years, the number of people applying for the postgraduate entrance examination has tripled, with an average annual growth rate of 20%.
As universities continue to expand their enrollment, more and more people will take the postgraduate and doctoral examinations.
It’s okay if you’re in a university. After all, there’s a library where you can study quietly.
The learning atmosphere is also good.
If you have already graduated and decide to retake the postgraduate entrance examination in order to pursue a better job and a better future, this learning atmosphere will no longer exist.
If we build a special postgraduate entrance examination factory, gather these people who want to take the postgraduate entrance examination, and provide them with dormitories, restaurants, gyms, and most importantly, an environment with a good learning atmosphere.
I believe many people will be interested.
And we only need to charge a certain amount of compensation. "
Before Xu Liang was reborn, the postgraduate entrance examination factory was already a very mature business.
"You mean to build a school specifically for postgraduate entrance examination people? “It’s not just the postgraduate entrance examination, but also the national examination, certificate examination, TOEFL, IELTS, etc. In the meantime, we can also invite some people who have researched the postgraduate entrance examination to give lectures and obtain more revenue. ”
There are many people like Zhang Xuefeng.
It’s just that not many are as famous as him.
"Husband, how did your head grow? You simply found a development strategy that perfectly fits your new dream."
Lu Hui said with admiration.
"Haha, I'm just a little luckier than ordinary people."
After turning over the information in her hand, Lu Hui pondered for a while.
"Husband, it seems that it is not difficult to run this kind of postgraduate entrance examination school?"
"It is indeed not difficult, no teachers are needed, just provide a well-decorated venue with a good environment." Xu Liangdao.
"Then there is no need for us to put it under the New Dream banner."
Xu Liang looked over.
“Tell me what you think?”
“It’s very simple. New Dream is a listed company, and we just hold the majority of the shares. If we need to use the resources of New Dream, then take the postgraduate entrance examination It’s okay to put the school under its umbrella
But now it’s just a venue and doesn’t need any resources from New Dream, so wouldn’t we suffer a loss if we allocate benefits to it?”
"You have learned to be diligent and thrifty so quickly?" Xu Liang laughed.
"Of course. We will not only have one child in the future, of course we must save more wealth for them."
Lu Hui said matter-of-factly.
“Good idea.”
“Just talk, don’t you want to sponsor some money?”
“Ahem, I have a good idea for you. Besides, don’t you have money in your pocket?”
After he injected New Dream's real estate projects into New Dream Company, Lu Hui's trust fund cashed out US$1.5 billion.
It cost less than US$20 million to acquire Marley's painting materials, leaving a large amount of money in hand.
There are also enough funds to operate this project.
“There is no such thing as too much money.”
Xu Liang nodded, “Okay.”
Just when Lu Hui was surprised that he agreed so readily.
"When you have your child and take good care of yourself, I will give you tens of billions, or hundreds of billions can be negotiated."
As a former secretary, Lu Hui is too familiar with the man next to her. , you can see what "tens of billions" means by looking at his expression.
I couldn't help but roll my eyes at him.
“It’s becoming more and more unseemly.”
"Hehe, I'm serious."
Patted the 'Lushan Claw' that came over, "Don't make trouble, I have something else to ask you?"
"You ask Yours, I’ll grab mine.”
The increase in estrogen after pregnancy makes the beauty’s originally plump upper circumference increase by at least one size, and it feels great.
“I have 12 billion Huaxia coins in working capital, which I plan to use to establish 12 large postgraduate entrance examination schools in the four first-tier cities of Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.”
"Self-operated property?"
"Well, haven't you always felt that China's real estate market has huge potential? Self-operated property is also an investment."
Lv Hui, who has been with Xu Liang for many years, It is very clear which investment direction he is optimistic about.
“One billion Huaxia coins, even for self-operated properties, is too big.” Xu Liang said.
“It’s big enough to have a school atmosphere and provide a variety of functional facilities, such as fitness centers, swimming pools, etc.
There is no shortage of smart people in the world. Once our model is exposed, many imitators will soon appear.
But there are certainly not many companies with as strong capital as us.
So we have to widen the gap with them from the beginning.
Over time, brand positioning will be formed.
Complete facilities, many functional areas, many people, and a good atmosphere are our brand positioning.
In addition, postgraduate entrance examination schools with strict management are not suitable for everyone.
Many people who take exams and public exams use their working time to study, and they have to go to work themselves.
So, we can provide more free apartments for postgraduate entrance exams.
Work during the day, and you can go to the study room to study in the evening or on Saturdays and Sundays. ”
Xu Liang looked at her with admiration.
Being able to think of so much in a short period of time means Lu Hui is already an excellent professional manager.
"According to your idea, 12 billion Huaxia coins are not enough."
The investment in a large apartment with a construction area of 100,000 square meters is in the second ring road of Beijing and Shanghai. , the price of land acquisition is close to 1 billion, and with the later construction, it will directly double.
The third ring is cheaper, but also limited.
Only for postgraduate entrance examination schools, they don’t choose a location and can be built directly in the suburbs. The investment is not too big.
"The trust fund also holds 73.9% of New Dream's equity. Today, New Dream's latest market value on the Hong Kong stock market is HK$92.7 billion." Lu Huidao.
If they mortgage the equity of New Dream, they can get a large loan.
“And the apartment rent plus the rising book income from real estate will definitely exceed the interest on bank loans.”
Xu Liang: “You have considered it very comprehensively. However, don’t do it at the beginning. It’s too big.
Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, a postgraduate entrance examination school that can accommodate 2,000 people, and a large apartment that can accommodate 3,000 people.
Putting test schools in suburban areas requires less investment.
The apartments are located in places with convenient transportation and where young people gather, such as Zhongguancun, Chaoyang CBD, and Pudong.
First accumulate experience and train personnel.
Once we have a feasible model, we can then mortgage the equity of our new dream and advance it in a big way. ”
Reducing the scale of investment, the above is only one of the reasons.
The biggest reason is that in two years there will be a subprime mortgage crisis, and domestic real estate will plunge into a low ebb.
Going in at that time was a bargain hunting opportunity.
If you go in now, you will take the blame.
Every fool knows how to choose.
Lu Huidao didn’t think so much, but she also understood the importance of experience.
"Honey, would you like to give our new company a name?"
After thinking for a moment, Xu Liang said, "Let's call it 'Future Home'. Whether it's postgraduate entrance examination, public examination, TOEFL or IELTS, it's all about having a A better future."
"Future home? Future home..."
After tasting it, Lu Hui nodded.
“No more talking, the most important thing for you now is to wait for the birth, and we can talk about the future home after the baby is born.”
"Yeah."
Xu Liang stood up.
"The weather is nice today. Can I help you out for a walk?"
"Okay."
Lu Hui put her hand on his palm.
The place where the two of them live is not Lilac Garden, that place has been reserved for Liu Qianqian.
After Lu Hui became pregnant and decided to settle in the Magic City, Xu Liang bought Tan Palace No. 5 for her.
Now there are only two villas in the Magic City, Ziyuan and Tan Palace.
Purple Garden is in Sheshan, which is too far from the city, making commuting very inconvenient.
In comparison, Tan Palace is much closer. It is close to the Middle Ring Road and opposite the Xijiao Hotel. It is only ten minutes away from Xujiahui where the New Dream headquarters is located. It is not far from the airport, so it is convenient no matter where you go. .
Covering an area of four acres, the design of the garden is far less sophisticated than the Lilac Garden, but it is adequate.
