Chapter Seventy-One: The Concept of a Private Club

Zheng Yan saw Liu Wei's eagerness, so he didn't continue to sell Guanzi, and said to Liu Wei: "Third brother, I think you can set up a private club." ”

After Zheng Yan finished saying this, he saw Liu Wei and Zhang Jianqiang looking dazed, and then he thought that there was no such concept in China at this time. So he continued: "This private club is a place for private gatherings, the purpose of which is to draw together the same class of people and form a kind of alliance. ”

The first private clubs appeared in England in the 17th century, born in a café, and then slowly became popular in Europe. Whether there is anything in China or not, Zheng Yan is not very clear in his heart. But Zheng Yan can be sure that even if there is already one in China, it is a simple prototype.

"Zheng Yan, since this is a place for private gatherings, what kind of profit does this private club you are talking about?" Zhang Jianqiang couldn't help but ask the question he was most concerned about.

Regarding Zhang Jianqiang's question, Zheng Yan was really difficult to answer for a while. In later generations, such private clubs, each member paid tens or even millions of membership fees a year. Even so, Zheng Yan is not sure whether it is profitable or not. But at present, this kind of charge may not be realistic. Whether he can maintain a balance of payments, Zheng Yan really has no bottom in his heart.

Zheng Yan thought for a moment in his heart, and said to the two: "Third brother, Brother Qiang, I think so. This private clubhouse is a member-only venue. At that time, there will be several membership levels, and the higher the level, the better the treatment will be enjoyed. Of course, the corresponding fee will be higher. I want all members to regard this kind of membership card as a status symbol. It's not that we try to win over others to become members, but that we make membership an object for others to compete for. In addition, people whose status or worth is not to a certain extent, even if they are willing to pay, are not eligible for membership. ”

Liu Wei understood the benefits when he heard it, there is no shortage of people in this world who compare. Once Zheng Yan's idea is implemented, I dare not say that the whole of China will be able to gather at least a large number of upper-class people in the capital. At that time, the most important thing is not to make money from these people, but the network resources and a lot of wealth that these people represent together.

"Zheng Yan, I understand what you mean, but how can we attract these people to join?" asked Liu Wei to Zheng Yan.

"Third brother, in fact, this is not difficult. You must know a lot of young people from the same family background as you in the capital, and when the time comes, our first members will give them a place to have fun. People who want to make friends with these people, or who want to do things with these people but can't find a way, will naturally take the initiative to find us, which is also our main source of income. Slowly, after everyone knows about it, more people will naturally take the initiative to find it. Zheng Yan explained.

"Zheng Yan, according to what you said, if we start doing this, others can immediately follow suit? Others don't necessarily have to join our club, right?" Liu Wei asked Zheng Yan.

In fact, Zheng Yan had already thought about Liu Wei's problem, so he said to Liu Wei: "Third brother, if it's just a party place, of course others can imitate it, but we can provide services that can't be provided elsewhere." For example, Brother Qiang's official cuisine, we only provide it for senior members, and other members provide some slightly worse ones. In addition, I plan to build a golf course, a bowling alley, a horse course, a shooting range and a series of leisure activities. These are not things that can be achieved with ideas, they require a lot of money, and your brother and I happen to be not short of money. ”

Zheng Yan has a deep understanding of the entertainment life of this era, and many people's leisure way is to read books and newspapers. So I'm not worried that these won't attract others.

Zhang Jianqiang listened to the conversation between Zheng Yan and Liu Wei on the side, but he lightened his thoughts. After all, Zheng Yan and Liu Wei are brothers, and they are outsiders no matter how they say it. And Zheng Yan is rich, Liu Wei has a relationship, and he has nothing else to do except for his family heirloom skills. So he said to the two: "Viagra, Zheng Yan, I won't mix this up." I want money or not, I want no one. If you need it, I can help you. ”

"Qiangzi, how do you say this? What kind of money is not money, our brothers have been in a relationship for so many years, if what Zheng Yan said is really feasible, can you still be a brother? ”

Zheng Yan also understood Zhang Jianqiang's care, and saw the relationship between Liu Wei and Zhang Jianqiang, just like himself and Tang Hao, since Liu Wei said it, Zheng Yan didn't say anything more. Moreover, Zhang Jianqiang's official cuisine is also a key part of Zheng Yan's plan. No matter how good Western food is, as long as you have money, you can eat it, but authentic government food can't. Zheng Yan is ready to turn Zhang Jianqiang's official cuisine into a signboard of the club and a symbol of status.

"Zheng Yan, if you build according to what you say, the place will definitely not be small. In this way, I will arrange for someone from the company to build the building for you. As for the clubhouse, I'll look for it first. I don't have to worry about my company anymore, just hire a manager later. I'll run this club well. Liu Wei said to Zheng Yan.

Zheng Yanke never thought of letting Liu Wei run this club, and with Liu Wei's identity, running a club is inevitably a bit overkill. His main role is reflected in two aspects, one is to deter some people with ulterior motives, and the second is to use it as a medium to attract some people.

In addition, Zheng Yan did not have the idea of getting involved in the real estate industry before, mainly because of the shortcomings in personal relationships. Now that there is Liu Wei, it is natural to intervene.

"Third brother, you don't need to run this club. This is just a means for us to gather resources in the future, and you come to do this, it's like using an anti-aircraft gun to fight mosquitoes, it's too wasteful. I'm going to let Brother Qiang and a friend of mine do it, my friend is a small one, and my current company also has his shares, so I will take the time to introduce you to each other. As for the third brother, your main focus is still on the construction company's side. ”

When Zheng Yan came up with the idea of running a club, he was ready to let Tang Hao run it, and Tang Hao's personality was also suitable for this kind of work. Originally, Zheng Yan had been hesitating about Zhao Weimin, Dong Chuan and Tang Hao, the division of labor between the three of them in the future. Zheng Yan himself is just preparing to look for investment opportunities. As for the electronic product foundry in preparation, it is ready to be handed over to Dong Chuan, and Zhao Weimin is ready to be responsible for the affairs of enterprise management software. What has been entangled is Tang Hao, his personality is not very suitable for managing enterprises, and now he has a position suitable for Tang Hao.
