Li's father and Li's mother finally accepted the reality that Li Mu was worth billions, and Li Mu confessed some of his other projects to them.
First, he confessed that he used 3321 to incubate Alipay, and also used Alipay to start Taobao with a senior from Renmin University.
Fortunately, Li’s father and Li’s mother don’t know much about Taobao, nor do they know much about Alipay. It sounds like it’s just a small project for Li Mu to test the waters. Under the aura of multi-billion-dollar Makino Technology, they didn’t realize that these two What do each company represent
Secondly, Li Mu talked about the real estate company he was currently working on with Song Liang and another friend. Li's parents suddenly realized that their previous guesses were correct. Song Liang's development in Yanjing was indeed related to his son.
Li's father and Li's mother asked Li Mu about the current progress of the real estate company. Li Mu just said in an understatement: "There is not a serious project under construction at the moment. We will try to start it in the second half of this year."
Li's father and Li's mother thought they were just getting started, but they were not surprised. Li's father said to Li Mu: "The real estate industry is so deep, you must be cautious."
Li Mu said, "Don't worry, dad. I only invest money in real estate projects and am not responsible for the specific operations. Moreover, I don't invest much money. It doesn't matter even if I lose money."
Li’s father and Li’s mother nodded and didn’t ask any more questions. In their opinion, Li Mu was now far beyond the scope of what they could see through. Therefore, in this case, they could not make any substantive comments on Li Mu’s business behavior. The only thing sexual advice can do is remind him to be careful.
At this time, Li Mu added: "Several of the projects I have now are in the money-burning stage. Online games are very popular right now, so I set up a game company to represent an online game in South Korea. Now I have thousands of dollars a month." Wan of income."
"Tens of millions a month..." Li's father and Li's mother's jaws were almost shocked by these words.
Li Mu said calmly: "That's what game companies are like. As long as a game becomes popular and millions of people across the country play it, and everyone spends dozens of dollars on this game every month, their monthly turnover will be over Tens of millions, but the pace of the game market is too fast, so the life cycle of most online games is very short. This year, games with monthly sales of tens of millions may not be able to sell tens of millions of dollars in one year next year. "
Father Li and Mother Li looked at each other, and they clasped their hands tightly. You could feel that each other's palms were full of sweat.
Seeing that his parents were a little nervous, Li Mu hurriedly began to make amends for himself, saying, "This is what working on the Internet is like. Once a project is started, other projects will start very quickly under the guidance of this project, because many resources can be used with each other." Sharing, or even universal, YY now has so many users. Based on YY, it will be much easier to promote any product to users than to do it alone, so you don’t have to be surprised. In the future, driven by YY’s core product, I might try all kinds of things."
Li's father and Li's mother nodded slightly, seemingly understanding. The two of them were happy and helpless, and their moods were quite complicated.
Li Mu changed the subject at this time and said to his parents: "My game company's accounts are independent, so there is no such trouble. Mom, didn't you represent Guireniao to set up a company? Give me your company account later, and I'll ask the game company to Give your company 50 million first."
Li Ma waved her hands hurriedly and said: "You don't need so much, 20 million is enough!"
Dad Li also echoed: "Your mother and I just want to contract the first floor of the department store. In that case, at most ten million will be enough. But what you said makes sense. Let's go back and take over the first and second floors." If we contract it, 20 million is more than enough.”
Li Mu said: "When you run shopping malls, you build a physical business model. In the early stage, there are no stories or concepts to tell. Everything depends on the book turnover after the mall opens. It's not like doing business on the Internet. If you don't have money, you can rely on playing with concepts and telling stories to raise funds. , so you’d better prepare some extra money, and if you can’t use it all, put it in your account for emergencies.”
After that, Li Mu added: "Actually, I have another idea. Not only does our Haizhou not have a clothing retail business center, we don't even have a real large supermarket. You also often go to the south, like Carrefour and Wal-Mart. I don’t need to tell you how convenient this kind of large supermarket is and how big the passenger flow is. You should have a general understanding. If a large comprehensive supermarket can be opened in Haizhou this year, it will definitely be able to occupy this market ahead of Carrefour and Wal-Mart. , the market space is still very large, you can check it out, and if you are interested, you can also open one in Haizhou."
Li Ma thought for a while and said: "I have paid attention to the large supermarkets. It is indeed a blank in our Haizhou. However, your father and I have no experience in this area and don't know where to start."
Li Mu smiled and said: "I'm just saying casually. Anyway, if you have more money, you can seize new business opportunities in time when you find them in the future. Otherwise, if you invest all your money in shopping malls, you won't see good projects for a while." I can’t even move.”
Dad Li knew that Li Mu was trying to persuade them to accept his 50 million financial support, so he said to his wife: "I think we should not hesitate. Xiao Mu is not short of this money now, so we can save it for him." Well, if you invest in good projects, you can still make money.”
Li Ma thought that this was the case, so she nodded and agreed without any further hesitation. Who allowed her son to make money and be wealthy? Fifty million is estimated to be the monthly turnover of his game company.
Li Mu looked at the time and said, "We will go out to eat later. There is a very good and authentic roast duck restaurant nearby. I will take you to try it."
…
At around seven o'clock in the evening, Li Mu brought his parents to the restaurant. Before the food was served, he received a call from Chen Ze. Li Mu went out of the box to answer the phone. On the other end of the phone, Chen Ze asked Li Mu with excitement in his voice: "Come back." Yet?"
"I'm back." Li Mu heard a little excitement in his voice and couldn't help but ask, "What's the good thing? So excited."
Chen Ze asked Li Mu: "Do you know how much the second-hand housing prices in the East Third Ring Road, especially near Sanyuan Bridge, have increased in the past few days since you left?"
Li Mu asked in surprise: "How much has it increased?"
"Generally, it is around 50%." Chen Ze said: "This is the largest increase in house prices in Yanjing in recent years. The average house price in the entire East Third Ring Road has increased by about 30%, and it is still rising. The market transaction rate is not high. , I can see that everyone is still waiting and watching.”
Li Mu sighed: "The more owners of second-hand houses are reluctant to sell, the faster housing prices will rise. It is estimated that good properties will double by the end of the year."
"It's very possible." Chen Ze said: "Whoever has approved residential land in Sanyuanqiao or even the entire East Third Ring Road is the boss of the bank."
Li Mu asked curiously: "How are our funds?"
Chen Ze said with a smile: "That's why I called you to tell you this. All our funds have been secured, a total of 7 billion, with the lowest commercial loan interest rate."
"Seven billion?" Li Mu asked in surprise: "It's increased again?"
Chen Ze smiled and said: "Yes, house prices have risen too fast, and land prices have also risen. I originally wanted 8 billion plus the lowest commercial loan interest rate, but the other party said that 8 billion needs approval from the head office. I was afraid of delaying the matter. I signed it directly and the money has arrived now.”
Li Mu felt happy: "No wonder you are so excited, it turns out the money has arrived!"
Chen Ze said: "Not only has the money arrived, I have also learned about the situation in Sanlitun. You will attend the summit over the weekend. We will have a closer look at the specific situation on Monday."
"Okay! Let's talk on Monday!"
There are so many things that can be done with 7 billion funds in place. Li Mu doesn't know what the lowest commercial loan interest rate is for Chen Ze, but since it is the lowest, I'm afraid it is really low. Now is the golden stage for investment in all walks of life. Loans with low interest rates are simply free money. If you invest anything, the rate of return will be much greater than the bank interest rate, so the more money, the better.
Before the food was served, Li Mu called Liu Edong again. He had been doing preliminary preparations for building his own logistics recently. It could be said that he was waiting for his money to be in place. For such a major matter, he had to be notified in advance. A sound that made him happy too.
Li Mu expected to meet with Chen Ze and Song Liang on Monday, and the one billion he had reserved would be received by Tuesday at the latest, so he said to Liu Haodong on the phone: "Brother Liu, the money will be received next Tuesday. I will go to the company on Tuesday morning. Let’s work out exactly how to get started.”
Li Mu's straight-to-the-point words made Liu Edong unable to react for a long time. After about half a minute, he asked ecstatically: "What? The money will arrive next Tuesday?! Is it true?!"
Li Mu smiled and said: "Why am I lying to you? Wanying Real Estate has received a loan of 7 billion in mortgages for six pieces of land. If you go quickly, it will be paid on Monday."
"That's great!" Liu Edong said excitedly: "Tuesday happens to be our summer brand day. I think you'd better come before twelve o'clock on Monday night. This is the time to witness the miracle!"
Li Mu had forgotten which day the summer brand day was, and subconsciously asked: "Is next Tuesday the summer brand day?"
Liu Edong said: "You must be busy and confused, July 23 is not next Tuesday!"
Li Mu suddenly realized it and said hurriedly: "OK, I'll be there on Monday night!"
Summer Brand Day is equivalent to the primary form of the Double Eleven Online Shopping Festival in later generations. It is also a good opportunity for Taobao to show the world the true strength of its platform. Naturally, Li Mu cannot miss such a big event.
Back at the dining table, Li Mu couldn't help but smile with joy. Mother Li saw it and couldn't help but ask him: "Son, what's the good thing? You smile so brightly."
Li Mu chuckled and said, "It's okay. I'm going to meet a few friends next week to discuss something. There's some progress on the new project."
Li Mu didn't tell the story about Wanying Real Estate. Seven billion in cash was a bit scary even to himself. Besides, his parents were already shocked enough today. Let's wait for them to digest it a little and talk about it later when they have a chance...
