22. Bargaining
Can't let the third brother speak!
Zhou Fangyuan's heart immediately flashed with such a thought.
His understanding of the third brother can be said to be quite deep, and he knows very well that the third brother is a person who is cynical on the surface, but in fact he is very sensitive in his heart, and he is particularly disgusted by others bullying and calculating him. He can be free from the world, he can be content with the status quo, and even in difficult days, he can maintain an optimistic heart.
On the surface, he is a very easy-going person who can afford to joke about anything.
But if anyone really dared to bully him, the courage he burst out with was enough to shock anyone.
It's like when he was 15 years old in his last life, just because in a small restaurant, two gangsters opened their mouths and molested his girlfriend. In fact, it was a very simple matter, and the other party only took advantage of it verbally, and the social security at that time was already very good, and the gangsters did not dare to do anything in broad daylight.
But on the contrary, the third brother seemed to be crazy, carrying a knife, chasing the two thugs and slashing more than a dozen times, although the thugs were not in danger of life, but the third brother was still imprisoned for the crime of intentional wounding.
And the third brother's girlfriend left immediately after his accident and found another man.
Zhou Fangyuan still remembered that when he visited the third brother for the last time before crossing and told the third brother the news, the third brother said to him through the phone through the glass wall, "What if she leaves? ”
Zhou Fangyuan subconsciously asked when he heard this, "Then you still do this?"
The third brother showed a familiar smile on his face, "I can't change myself because of her, a man lives with dignity in this life, if he doesn't even have dignity, he can bully you tomorrow with cats and dogs." It has nothing to do with women, as long as it provokes me, I will definitely make him regret it. ”
I have to say that the third brother's thinking is quite extreme, which may have something to do with his living environment since he was a child. But there is no doubt that the third brother is a good person, but he is a little impulsive and a little admitted.
If it was another time, he would have left it to the other party, but not this time, this time the two basically invested all their net worth, and the matter of the Internet café must not be lost. As soon as he saw the third brother's expression, he knew that this thing was about to have a seizure again, so he immediately dragged the other party and swallowed back the words that the other party was about to blurt out, and then said to the middle-aged man sitting opposite before the third brother.
"Uncle, you see that we have been in for so long, and I still don't know what your last name is. ”
The landlord looked at Zhou Fangyuan, "Don't be surnamed Wang." ”
"It turned out to be Uncle Wang, hello, I'm Fang Zhenbin's cousin, just call me Xiao Zhou. ”
"Hmm. ”
The landlord nodded, but did not answer, maybe in his opinion, people like Zhou Fangyuan and Yu Ban were just little guys who came out to see the world, and they were not worth his attention.
Zhou Fangyuan was not annoyed, and patted the third brother's arm with his hand, signaling the other party not to worry.
Then he looked at the landlord with a smile, "Uncle Wang, you see, we want to build this Internet café, and we have made a lot of preparations, and we have also taken out all our net worth, just to make a lot of money from this." You're asking for 65 percent of your mouth right now, isn't that too much?"
"Is it much?" the landlord glanced at Zhou Fangyuan, "I don't think so, the house is mine, and I also invested 300,000 yuan in you, although you have also made a lot of efforts, but your investment is only 200,000 yuan in total." All in all, I want 65 percent, both the amount of investment and the importance of investment, it is a matter of course. And children, do you know how much more money you can make with these 300,000 yuan? Maybe the extra part you earn can be worth the part of your urban area, I think this share is reasonable. ”
"But you need us to operate it," Zhou Fangyuan still looked like he was smiling, "Now in the entire Beitong City, I'm afraid we are the only ones who will operate the Internet café, you listen, it is an Internet café in the real sense, the same as Haishi and the capital, not those simple computer rooms." And to be honest, even if you invest 300,000 yuan, you won't be able to add many computers. Like the previous behavior of the city government to sell second-hand computers, it is estimated that there is only one chance in recent years, and if you buy it again, you can only sell brand new computers. A brand new computer costs more than 10,000 yuan, and your 300,000 yuan can only be regarded as icing on the cake at most. It is true that with this money, the income of the entire Internet café may be better than what we planned, but if you divide it up by 65% at once, there will not be much left of us. ”
"Xiao Zhou, right?" the landlord was looking at Zhou Fangyuan at this time, "If I'm not mistaken, you are not an adult this year." ”
"Yes, I just graduated from junior high school, and today I am fifteen. ”
Zhou Fangyuan smiled and nodded.
"Well, it's good for a fifteen-year-old to be able to say such things. Let's talk about how many shares you can come up with, but I want to remind you that I invested 300,000 yuan to see the benefits, and if the shares are too small, I will not invest. ”
The landlord sat up straight, and this small change proved that he began to pay attention to Zhou Fangyuan's opinion.
"Of course I understand," Zhou Fangyuan nodded, and then pretended to think about it, "Forty-five percent, this is our bottom line." ”
"Hehe," the landlord shook his head with a smile, "Children, don't be too greedy, you eat my investment of 300,000 yuan, and use my store for nothing, only give me 45% of the shares?
I didn't want you to invest in the first place, didn't you see that my third brother was about to explode?
Zhou Fangyuan said in his heart, but he didn't say this, but shook his head with a smile, "Uncle Wang, this account is not calculated like this, you must know that no matter what kind of business you do, operation is very important." The value of a good operation is immeasurable. In this world, companies and enterprises with good products are like carp crossing the river, but in the end there are very few that can really succeed, why? Because they lack a good operator. And I can say without exaggeration that we are this good operator, this Beitong City, you can open your own Internet café, you can also partner with anyone else to open an Internet café, but only we really know how to operate. So if you invest in us, it is definitely the best choice for you to get involved in the Internet café industry at the moment. Therefore, we need more shares, otherwise, as you said, we can do it ourselves, so why accept your investment? As long as we can quickly withdraw funds, we are fully capable of quickly expanding the Internet café, so I say that the 300,000 yuan can only be regarded as the icing on the cake. ”
Zhou Fangyuan tilted his head slightly and said very confidently.
"Overconfidence is conceit," the landlord shook his head with a smile, "I am really impressed that you can have such confidence, and I hope you are not conceited to say such things, but I need to prove it, how can you prove that you have such value?
"Then let's sign a VAM agreement, if we can fully recover the capital or even have a surplus within a year, you will take out another 5% of the shares on the basis of 45% as incentive shares for us. On the other hand, if we don't make it back in one year, you will own 65% of the shares in the café. That way, you won't lose money whether you win or lose. If we can really pay back the investment in one year, your 40% stake is enough to offset your investment and rent, and from the second year onwards, you will be pure earnings, and you don't have to worry about it. If we fail, you'll get the majority of the shares, and we'll have no complaints. ”
Zhou Fangyuan has completely become the protagonist of the negotiations.
And the other party no longer treats him as a companion.
The landlord looked at Zhou Fangyuan, was silent for a moment, and then smiled silently, "Little friend, your idea is very interesting, okay, just do as you say." ”
In fact, for him, it doesn't matter how many shares he has, he just wants to control this Internet café, just like the Yuanlong Cinema back then. However, he did suffer the loss of not having a good operation, plus the film industry itself was sluggish, and he himself had no talent for management, so he closed the oldest movie theater in Beitong City.
Now Zhou Fangyuan's words made him think of giving it a try, 300,000 yuan is not a lot of money for him, sitting in such a building, his annual rent is more than 300,000, so he agreed so easily.
The agreement was quickly drawn up, and both parties signed their names. Party A is naturally the landlord himself, while Party B is signed by the third brother. When signing, seeing the third brother's reluctant appearance, Zhou Fangyuan also quietly pinched his sweat, for fear that the third brother would suddenly have a seizure and make this matter worse.
Fortunately, the third brother didn't know whether it was to give him face or some other reason, so he wrote his name smoothly.
The agreement was established, and according to the landlord, he would transfer the money into the third brother's account within three days, and the third brother would need to run down the Internet café procedures within a few days. After a week, the tenants on the fourth floor left, and the Internet café immediately began to renovate.
The third brother had no objection to this matter, and nodded and agreed.
After finishing their errands, the group prepared to leave.
Out of the small courtyard of the landlord's house, the third brother kept walking without speaking, until he walked to the street, he suddenly stopped and turned his head to look at Zhou Fangyuan.
"Fatty, although the third brother believes you...... But you better explain, why accept his investment?"
