Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 376: Who makes money, who spends it

Views:

Zhang Yuan was still blowing rainbow farts 360 degrees without dead ends, but Pei Qian was drinking coffee and didn't hear a word.

He was puzzled, what was the problem? ?

Taking Tang Yishu to the warehouse, the effect was immediate. All the computers that were supposed to be malfunctioning were out of order, which really slowed down the progress of the assembly.

But... what happened to the memory factory fire

This halo effect can't always affect foreign countries, right

Pei Qian was puzzled.

Strictly speaking, these things that happened are really not a good thing, but they did bring a lot of trouble to President Pei...

It seems that big killers have to be used with caution.

If you don't do it right, you will hurt yourself!

Anyway, the damage has been done now, the key is how to spend the money next.

Continue to stock up? I'm afraid not.

Now, the popularity of rof's installed machines is already very high, and after this wave of "no price increase promotion" on New Year's Day, its popularity and brand recognition will only become higher.

Previous examples have proved that many customers have now accepted that rof has a certain brand premium.

That is to say, even if the original price is maintained, the sales of the rof machine will never drop sharply, and because a certain profit margin is originally reserved, it is almost certain to make money.

If you stock up again, if there is another surge in graphics cards one day, wouldn't it cost President Pei's life

It seems that things like crazy hoarding are not reliable!

Pei finally spent money to buy a big lesson.

Should the money be spent on other industries

But on second thought, I rejected this point.

Pei Qian feels that he should stick to one principle, which is:

Whoever pollutes, who controls; whoever makes money, who spends.

He reflected for a while, and it was because he didn't adhere to this principle before that the fire started everywhere, and he couldn't hold back.

Many projects are fine by themselves, and it is a good thing, but when they are linked with other projects, it is likely to have major problems.

Therefore, the money that rof earned should still be left to Zhang Yuan and let him find a way to spend it himself.

Pei Qian thought for a moment and said, "Don't hand over the money earned by the rof installation business, you can spend it yourself."

Zhang Yuan was stunned: "Ah? President Pei, won't you hand over this large sum of money? Is this appropriate?"

Pei Qian said hehe: "Of course it's suitable, the money you earn, you spend yourself."

Zhang Yuan hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, Mr. Pei, all this money was earned under your wise guidance."

Pei Qian: "..."

Look at this person, if you can't speak, don't speak!

Pei Qian is a magnanimous person, and he doesn't plan to dwell too much on this issue: "Tell me first, where do you plan to spend this money?"

Zhang Yuan was lost in thought.

The business he is currently in charge of is mainly Moyu Internet Cafe and rof installation. Of course, Moyu Takeaway, as a derivative business of Moyu Internet Cafe, is also indirectly in charge of him.

At the same time, these businesses are closely related to Headwind Logistics.

The person in charge of Headwind Logistics is Lu Mingliang, who is highly valued by Pei Qian.

In fact, Upwind Logistics has indeed been a pure loss so far, and it can continue to operate only by the blood transfusion of other businesses of Tengda Group.

This fully proves that President Pei's consistent trust in Lu Mingliang is correct.

Of course, for Pei Qian, this should not be considered blood transfusion, but detoxification.

If there was no headwind logistics, President Pei might have died of poisoning long ago.

Zhang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Pei, I've thought about it for a while. The brand of rof has already gained a firm foothold in Jingzhou. The online store has also gained a certain reputation."

"Moyu Internet Cafe's business has been recognized by everyone, and it has become the most popular high-end Internet cafe brand in Jingzhou."

"In my opinion, we should almost continue to expand, and bring the Moyu Internet Cafe model to other cities!"

Pei Qian sighed silently in his heart, and sure enough, he still couldn't get around this problem.

Mr. Li had raised this question before, why not open branches in other cities and make more money.

The reason is very simple, President Pei is afraid to drive to other cities and continue to make money!

But now, he had to think about it.

Because it's been a bit too long.

Since Moyu Internet Cafe and rof installation business have made money, and they have made a lot of money, why not continue to expand

It doesn't make sense.

Therefore, this branch will open sooner or later, and the key question is where and how to open it.

Pei Qian thought for a while and asked, "In your opinion, where should the branch of Moyu Internet Cafe be opened?"

Zhang Yuan didn't hesitate: "I think we should drive to big cities, such as the imperial capital, the magic capital, or the super first-tier cities like Yangcheng!"

"There are many young people there, the population is dense, and everyone's consumption level is high, so they will definitely recognize this high-end Internet cafe model."

"It's easier to open the market when you get there."

"Even the supporting business of Moyu Internet Cafe, such as Moyu takeaway, can also be eaten."

Pei Qian was silent.

You're right, so you can't do that...

He thought for a moment, then said, "My opinion is quite the opposite."

"I'm going to set the next target at Lincheng."

Zhang Yuan was stunned: "Lin Cheng?"

Lincheng City is the poorest city in Handong Province. Daokou County, a well-known impoverished county, is located in Lincheng City.

Go to such a poor place to open Moyu Internet Cafe

How many customers can there be

Pei Qian continued: "Also, it's not just Moyu Internet Cafe that is going to expand this time."

"All the supporting facilities attached to Moyu Internet Cafe must be moved together!"

Seeing Zhang Yuan's confused expression, Pei Qian couldn't help but smile.

He is not urgent about opening a Moyu Internet Cafe branch.

He also hopes to open some more headwind stations.

However, the headwind station is basically all over Jingzhou, and when you open the map, you can see the dense network of outlets, and there is almost no place to start.

If you want to drive again, you can only drive to other cities.

However, it is a little too strange to only open the headwind station in other cities, but not Moyu Internet Cafe, and it is easy to be suspected.

If you want to do it, you must do it together, so as to hide people's eyes and ears.

Moreover, Moyu Internet Cafe has a great advantage compared to the headwind station, that is, the initial investment is relatively large. Whether it is the rent of the shop or the cost of decoration and the purchase of a computer, it is a large expense.

Even if it is gradually profitable in the future, it will take a long time to recover the huge investment in the early stage.

At least not during this billing cycle.

If you think about the location a little bit, don’t copy the failed experience of Jingzhou City and let these stores continue to lose money

That's even better!

Therefore, Pei Qian considered it again and again and chose the poorest city in Handong Province, namely Lincheng.

Being poor means that the consumption level of local residents is not high, and Internet cafes with relatively high consumption such as Moyu Internet Cafe are naturally not easy to eat.

And fancy takeaways like Moyu Takeout will definitely not sell.

And projects like Headwind Logistics, which have stable performance and steady losses, will definitely continue to lose money.

In short, if you want to choose, choose a poorer place.

As for why... Pei Qian didn't plan to explain, anyway, these people will make up their own minds.

Pei Qian continued: "My plan is to move all the current real industries and the supporting industries that are attached to the real industries."

"One Moyu Internet Cafe 2.0 opened in the core business district, matched with three Moyu Internet Cafe 1.0 opened in the second-class business district, matched with Moyu Takeaway, and then matched with 20 headwind stations around it, and installed rofs. Prepare a large warehouse and four distribution points around Moyu Internet Cafe."

"All these things, prepare at the same time, all at once!"

Zhang Yuan looked shocked: "President Pei, this investment is not small..."

"Although Lincheng's rent is much cheaper than Jingzhou's, it's impossible to get this whole set down without an initial investment of around 10 million yuan..."

Pei Qian sighed silently.

I don't want that either.

Who made your installation business so profitable? ?

Don't I have to hurry up and spend it, so that I can't spend it in a hurry when the settlement period arrives

Pei Qian said earnestly: "This money is nothing, if it's not enough, you can ask me again."

"Moreover, the 20 Deadwind Stations are only temporary, and they will definitely continue to open in the future, and strive to cover the Lincheng as soon as the Deadwind Station is covered in Jingzhou!"

"You have to clarify a purpose."

"I made my own money, I found a way to solve it myself, and spent it hard;"

"If you lose money, report it to me as soon as possible, and I will give you the bottom line."

Zhang Yuan originally thought that President Pei was talking politely, but after looking closely, he felt that President Pei's eyes were very sincere.

"Mr. Pei, I... I'm so... I'm so moved!"

Zhang Yuan's gratitude was indescribable for a while.

Pei Qian hurriedly raised his hand, signaling him to stop.

"Okay, needless to say, I still have something to do, so I'll go first."

When Pei Qian saw the long queue at the entrance of the Internet cafe, he was furious.

Zhang Yuan hurriedly said: "Okay, Mr. Pei, go slowly! Happy New Year to you!"

Pei Qian: "..."

Sorry, my new year is not happy at all!

Tuesday, November 4th at 11am.

Pei Qian came to the company leisurely as usual, while the others had already started their day's work.

Maybe because it was the first day of work after the holiday, everyone seemed very busy.

Li Yada and his travel team have returned.

Pei Qian saw Li Yada and Bao Xu. For some reason, he always felt that they couldn't see much aftertaste and joy of returning from travel on their faces, but... a feeling of going through the vicissitudes of life

Pei Qian couldn't help but wonder, is the United States so bad

But he didn't ask too much, because Pei Qian was also a rather homely person, and he didn't want to go out and run around, and he didn't care whether the country was fun or not, and he didn't plan to go anyway.

When he came to the office, Pei Qian first checked the unread messages.

There was a message from Zhang Yuan, saying that he and Lu Mingliang had already set off for Lincheng for inspection today. Counting a series of links such as site selection, decoration, and recruitment in the early stage, the whole set will be completed, at least by mid-February.

Pei Qian felt that this time was well stuck, and it would be better if it was delayed a little longer.

It is best to open all these Internet cafes, post stations and the like more than a week before the settlement, not only spending a lot of money, but not making too much money in this cycle.

As for the next cycle...

Let’s talk about it in the next cycle. If it really doesn’t work, I will find another poorer city to open some branches, and the cycle will continue indefinitely.
