Chapter 310: Risks (3/4)
Su Mu, Li Ping'an and others went shopping according to the original plan, the streets and alleys were mainly state-run businesses, and the economy was very depressed, which was not much different from what Su Mu had originally learned.
The shopping mall that sells electrical appliances is a state-owned enterprise, and the shopping mall that sells department stores is also a state-owned enterprise, and occasionally you can see small vendors picking up things to sell, because the price is cheap, there is always no shortage of people to buy, especially a stall owner who sells electronic watches, and the things are just taken out and quickly sold out.
The United States has already entered a buyer's market, and China is still a seller's market, as long as you dare to do it, dare to find a source of goods to sell things, almost all of them can make a lot of money, the reason why the word "dare" is used is because the crime of speculation still exists, there is no shortage of examples of being shot for doing business and buying low and selling high, Mr. Hu said that employing more than seven people constitutes a crime, but it is not a joke.
The crime of speculation mainly refers to the crime of making huge profits by means of private trading, hedging and reselling, and this crime arose in the 70s and 80s, when the planned economy was heavily colored.
In the early days of reform and opening up, the planned part of the implementation of the state's unified allocation of prices, at the same time, enterprises beyond the plan to sell their own products, will be sold at market prices, forming a special "dual-track price system", with the establishment of the market economic system, speculation has appeared a clear differentiation, some have become normal market behavior, some have risen to the legal norms, has not been as strict as a few years ago, but this crime still exists, it depends on good luck, the most courageous group of people, from a few years ago began to do business secretly.
It is hard to imagine that it is a crime for private individuals to do business on their own, which is similar to the planned economy of the Soviet Union, and it is also the main culprit that leads to material scarcity to the point that it is difficult to even buy bread.
Speechless smiled, after a while, Su Mu unexpectedly found that there was actually a KFC on the corner of the street, and the customers at the door lined up in a long line, all the way from the door of the store to the outside of the store, and turned a corner.
KFC is definitely a private company, but it is a foreign company, doing business openly, and I haven't seen anyone check, Su Mu stopped and looked inside, and could see the scene of the waiters being busy and crazy, a clerk was standing at the door and pointing fingers, probably making people queue, the attitude was not polite at all, the small shop was not big, and the guests were happy to run to the back of the line to queue up.
Su Mu thought of something deeper, he belonged to foreign businessmen, and now foreign businessmen do not need to consider too many other restrictions, but there are restrictions on their own people, from the perspective of businessmen, is there a better market than this? The state has helped to monopolize the market, excluding many domestic investors, it is simply a fertile land for business that can develop at will and seize the opportunity!
Li Ping'an said in a strange tone: "KFC things are so unpalatable, why is the business so good here, I am hungry when I see it." ”
As soon as the words fell, a woman holding a child passed by, and she was saying to the child, "Go, mother will take you to eat Western food......
The longer the queue, driven by curiosity, the more people are willing to queue, Su Mu smiled: "Because there is nothing, the market in Huaxia is very large, but the industry is not perfect."
You have also heard, foreign talents are allowed to open factories to recruit workers, look at the United States' national enterprise United States Postal Service, you can probably guess what the state-owned enterprises here will look like, the competitiveness must be low, originally I planned to focus on the IT industry, the market is so good, I have a little excited, electronic watches, sunglasses and other things are snapped up, the scarcity of materials can be imagined. ”
Li Ping'an is not smart, what Su Mu can think of, he can't imagine it, he nodded as if he understood it, he felt like he was very powerful, and forcibly pulled the topic to KFC: "It's a pity that there are too many people, otherwise I want to buy a hamburger, and I'm a little hungry." ”
“...... What burger to eat, there is so much variety of food here, of course we have to eat a little bit that we haven't eaten. ”
Out of the Bund area, the streets began to become as dirty as Chinatown, full of people, everywhere dusty, there are not many private shops, there is a friendship shop that is said to be open to foreigners, Su Mu went in to visit, selling nothing more than household appliances, watches, cosmetics and so on.
There are also antiques clearly marked with prices, specially marked with dynasties and prices, are some gadgets that do not have too high collection value, national treasures are not allowed to be taken out of the country, but it is undeniable that driven by interests, there are many Chinese antiques in the international market today, and the fine antiques mainly flow to Xiangjiang, and then are bought by buyers from all over the world through auction houses.
After eating something I hadn't tried before, such as pancakes, I felt that there was nowhere to see nearby, so I turned around and walked back.
Right now.
The first and second leaders of Shanghai hurriedly rushed to the Peace Hotel, there was a car parked at the door of the hotel, Beijing A began, followed by five eight, such a license plate is not to be taken casually, no one dares to hang this kind of license plate in Yanjing to swagger through the market. What's more, it is still hung on the Mercedes-Benz S600 model high-end car, the Peace Hotel is now one of the most famous hotels in the country, and the guests staying in it are generally noble, so it is not surprising that this car appears.
The two didn't care, and were discussing how to get Su Mu to agree to invest in Shanghai, and the second-in-command surnamed Pei saw a person on a chair in the hotel lobby. The other party was not very old, he was wearing a suit, and his appearance was not at all inconspicuous, and the woman who had originally gone to Su Mu to exchange dollars stood beside him with a straight face, without speaking, as if she was waiting for someone.
Mr. Pei said something to the person next to him, and the other party couldn't help but be moved after hearing about the young man's origin, and walked over to say hello after hesitating.
Or in 1990, it didn't matter how much they dared to use nearly 3 billion yuan to eat $400 million in foreign exchange? It didn't matter how much they dared to get in touch with Su Mu from under the noses of local officials, and wanted to exchange the dollars that might be used for foreign investment from Su Mu? These two had to go to greet the young man, absolutely not because they valued him personally, but because they were afraid of the elders behind him.
The strange woman had confidence when she talked to Su Mu, because the people behind her were all over the world, and ordinary foreign exchange scalpers ate about one million dollars, which was more than millions of dollars, and Dacheng was like him, if his strength was not enough, he would have been killed by the waves on the beach, and it was not so easy to make the tide.
The first batch of people who went to the sea to do business, in addition to the ordinary people who were so poor that they had no way out and risked their lives, there were also those young people in Sijiu City who knew that no matter how the wind blows, they have the strength to protect themselves.
Su Mu is not stupid, he can pat his ass and leave at any time, as a businessman, he naturally strives to maximize his own interests, and vaguely guesses that the power behind this woman is not small, so he dares to talk about exchanging dollars from them and investing here.
How the other party ends, that is the other party's problem, at an exchange rate of about 1 to 7.5, it is equivalent to 400 million US dollars to more than 600 million, but most of them can only be used to invest in China, and the benefits are so big that he is willing to take a small risk......
