After leaving the company, Tong Fangquan drove his Jetta sedan. As soon as he came out, he quickly called Xu Yiyang.
Xu Yiyang was at the SuperX flagship store on Jinling Road at this time, following up on the decoration of the store. When he received a call from Tong Fangquan, he politely said: "Hello, Uncle Tong."
Tong Fangquan said excitedly: "Xiao Xu, the mobile QQ business you proposed is really amazing. In 12 hours, the information fee was 2.6 million!"
Xu Yiyang smiled and said: "So high? It seems that Uncle Tong is going to treat me to dinner."
Tong Fangquan said hurriedly: "Please! I must invite you! I can treat you for a year! If you are free tomorrow, go to the best hotel in Zhonghai and let's have a few drinks!"
Xu Yiyang smiled slightly and said: "I'm kidding you, Uncle Tong, there's no need to eat. After all, my friend and I didn't help in this matter for nothing. I'll share the money he made over there."
"One code equals another code." Tong Fangquan said: "What you two say between you is your business, and what happens between us is our business."
Xu Yiyang said: "Uncle Tong, this incident is actually just a chance. I also caught it by chance, so let's not be so grand and just find a place to eat and drink."
Tong Fangquan said simply: "Then come home to eat first! Tomorrow night, I will ask your Aunt Chen to come back early to cook. You can come over with Yue Wei after class."
Xu Yiyang agreed and said, "Okay, then tomorrow night."
Xu Yiyang really wanted to have a more personal relationship with Tong Fangquan. In the future, value-added business would be a big deal. If he maintained a good relationship with him and helped him consolidate his position with better products, we would definitely be able to achieve mutual success in the future.
So since he wants to thank himself, there is no need for him to be overly modest.
…
When Tong Fangquan returned home, his wife Chen Xinlin was wearing glasses and looking through a large pile of contract documents on the dining table.
Seeing Tong Fangquan coming back, Chen Xinlin looked up and asked, "Why are you back so late today?"
After saying that, he continued to look down at the document in his hand.
Tong Fangquan said cheerfully: "I did something big and impressive today."
"Oh." Chen Xinlin responded casually and continued to keep her head down and busy with her own things.
Tong Fangquan couldn't help but muttered: "What are you busy with? You are so serious that you don't even bother to pay attention to me?"
"No..." Chen Xinlin said without raising her head: "There are so many things going on. I have a meeting today. Dad asked me to focus on the book publishing business this year."
"Publishing?" Tong Fangquan frowned and said: "You are doing well in the hotel business, what publishing is now? How much money can you make from publishing? If you add up all the private publishing companies in the country, the market value is not as high as that of one Real Estate Company."
Chen Xinlin smiled and said: "If the group has this business, someone must do it. Don't forget, my dad made his fortune through publishing."
"Yes." Tong Fangquan muttered: "Your father became a millionaire by doing publishing, but he became a multimillionaire by doing paper mills, and he relied on building materials to become a billionaire. Publishing is very important to his company. They are all old almanacs from earlier years, and after this historical period, they have no meaning of existence.”
Then, Tong Fangquan asked: "What about the hotel business now? Didn't I say that I am planning to open one in Zhonghai this year? I asked you to do publishing. Don't you want to be responsible for the hotel business?"
Chen Xinlin put down the documents in her hand and said, "My brother took care of the hotel business."
Tong Fangquan frowned and said dissatisfied: "What is your father's plan? You have worked hard to plant trees, and now they are finally bearing fruit, so you want your brother to pick peaches?"
Chen Xinlin said hurriedly: "My dad didn't mean that..."
"Isn't that what you mean?" Tong Fangquan snorted coldly and said: "In January 1996, your father said he was optimistic about the hotel market in the mainland after Hong Kong's return, and he insisted on letting you go to Shenzhen to build a hotel. You worked hard to build and develop the hotel. In terms of profit, we were almost separated for more than two to three years, and now we have finally found a way out. Your dad actually changed hands and gave this business to your brother. This is really too much!"
Speaking of this, Tong Fangquan clapped his palms with the back of his hands and said emotionally: "Also, your dad is now diversified. What kind of business is not good for you to do? Publishing business? This is the worst thing in your dad's hands." A piece of business, right?"
"Don't you think what else is there to do in the publishing business now? For any best-selling book on the market, the number of pirated books is ten to twenty times that of the genuine book. It's crazy that this business can do well. !”
Chen Xinlin didn't expect that her husband would be so concerned about this matter.
Although she herself felt a little uncomfortable, she didn't complain too much.
Seeing that her husband was so angry, he hurriedly comforted him and said, "Fang Quan, that's not what you said. You also have to think about my dad. After all, my brother is the eldest son, and he will be the successor in the future. I won't give him any money in the hotel business now." He, I still have to give it to my dad before he retires."
Tong Fangquan asked back: "Have you been doing co-writing for so many years in vain?"
"That's not the case." Chen Xinlin said: "My father's intention, Xinyun and I have also figured out that the important property in the family in the future must be given to my brother, and we are not prepared to fight."
As she spoke, she added: "The hotel itself is an asset-heavy project. Any hotel can easily invest tens of millions or hundreds of millions. Even if my father lets me manage it, he will not let me take care of it in the future. He will still work for my brother to manage it. "
"There is also the building materials project at home, which is the real foundation of the entire home. It is even more impossible to give it to me."
"On the other hand, the business of book publishing and cultural communication is likely to be given to me in the future, so it is a good thing rather than a bad thing for me to take over early. After all, I am doing it for myself, not for others."
Tong Fangquan frowned, but his expression softened a lot.
He felt that Chen Xinlin was right.
Her brother is the eldest son and the only son in the family. In the future, he will definitely inherit most of the father-in-law's family business. Even if he thinks it is unfair, there is nothing he can do. Most family businesses will ultimately be inherited by the eldest son.
Chen Xinlin works in a family business. To put it bluntly, it is just a job. Like a senior executive, she has some equity in the company, but her equity is very low and her right to speak is also very low.
This is like a mansion of several thousand square meters at home. As a daughter, Chen Xinlin can naturally live at home and have her own room, but her name will not be written on this mansion in the future.
Therefore, instead of continuing to live there and waiting to be evicted in the future, it is better to move out in advance and prepare your own small home early.
Thinking of this, Tong Fangquan felt relieved, sat down opposite Chen Xinlin, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, wife!"
Chen Xinlin smiled slightly: "It's not hard, it would be best if you could understand me more."
Tong Fangquan said ashamedly: "I just felt that it was not worth it for you. You have paid so much, but you are still treated as an outsider."
Chen Xinlin said: "I told my dad that I want the book line in the future. I want not only publishing and printing, but also papermaking. This business line is no longer attractive to my dad and my brother." It’s eye-catching.”
Tong Fangquan asked: "What did they say?"
Chen Xinlin said: "My dad made a gambling suggestion for me to consider."
Tong Fangquan hurriedly asked: "What's your suggestion?"
Chen Xinlin said: "Within three years, the profits of this business line will triple. I will be given 60% of the equity of all companies in this business line, and the remaining 40% will belong to the group."
Tong Fangquan asked again: "What if it can't be completed?"
Chen Xinlin said: "If it is not completed, give me 20% and 80% will go to the group."
Tong Fangquan nodded, thinking of Chen Xinyun, and asked: "This business line is handed over to you, what should Xinyun do?"
Chen Xinlin smiled and said: "Xinyun will definitely be better than me in the future. After all, she is the youngest, and besides my brother, she is the most favored. I think what dad wants is that if the hotel in Zhonghai starts to build in the future, half of the equity may be permanently Give it to Xin Yun, and then let Xin Yun be responsible for the daily operations of this hotel."
Tong Fangquan asked: "The investment in this hotel in China Overseas is expected to be quite high, right?"
Chen Xinlin nodded: "About three hundred million."
Tong Fangquan sighed: "Xin Yun can save her worries. In the future, she will have a net worth of over 100 million."
After saying that, he shook his head: "For families with many children, it's really embarrassing to be in the middle."
"No." Chen Xinlin smiled slightly and said, "The first child is precious, but the second one doesn't have the freshness of being a father or a mother for the first time, so the parents will invest more energy than the first one." He is much younger, but he is the last one. Because he is the youngest, he can also be loved by thousands of people."
Tong Fangquan nodded and asked her: "Do you think the publishing business is successful?"
