Zhao Xianliang almost couldn't believe that Li Mu casually took out two billion to prepare for an unforeseen epidemic.

Li Mu repeated very seriously: "That's right, Uncle Zhao, at least two billion." ”

"Oh my God!" Zhao Xianliang didn't expect that Li Mu would dare to take out two billion yuan to hoard relevant materials in one breath, and after coming to his senses, he blurted out and asked Li Mu: "What do you want to do when you hoard so many epidemic-related materials at this time?"

Because Li Mu has a Taobao network, Zhao Xianliang subconsciously thought that Li Mu was going to take this opportunity to make a fortune, two billion purchase money, as long as it is in accordance with the normal market rules, it will be able to achieve more than 3 billion or even more than 4 billion retail sales, if according to the profit margin of the normal retail industry, after selling the two billion goods, it should be able to obtain a profit of about 500 million, and Li Mu is doing e-commerce, which saves many costs that the physical retail industry must bear, so the profit margin will be higher.

And all this is just under the normal market law, if Li Mu's two billion materials enter a state of shortage or crazy robbery, then the profit is not to mention 580 million, and it is even possible to directly double on the basis of 2 billion, these 2 billion are invested, and it should be easy to make 2 billion net profits at that time, and it is not impossible to make higher profits.

It's just that how can this money be earned casually! What is the difference between this and making a fortune?

When Zhao Xianliang questioned Li Mu, he was already a little angry in his heart.

Xie Yun was also a little surprised, looking at Li Mu with a look of disbelief.

She didn't want to believe that Li Mu was ready to take the opportunity to make a lot of money, but if Li Mu invested the two billion not to make money, but to control the epidemic, she couldn't believe it, after all, two billion is not a small amount, who would invest so much to control an epidemic that I don't know if it will break out?

And Li Mu's next words made Zhao Xianliang and speechless for a moment.

Li Mudao: "Uncle Li, some of these materials will be donated to the medical and health system to fight SARS, of course, the most important thing is to prepare various chemical protective clothing and other biochemical defense equipment for medical staff, and the remaining part will be used to maintain a stable supply of relevant materials in the country, so as to avoid panic due to the shortage of relevant materials in various places, and to avoid profiteers from taking this opportunity to hoard materials, sit on the ground and raise prices, and disrupt the market." ”

Speaking, Li Mu further explained: "The first part is a pure donation, which is jointly paid by Taobao and Muye Technology, although the second part is operational, Taobao will not get an additional penny of benefits, all of which are capped at the capital preservation operation, and will be sold at a price lower than the cost price when needed, and Taobao and Makino Technology will jointly bear the loss." ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Xianliang's heart was extremely ashamed, Li Mu took out such a large-scale fund to prevent the spread of the epidemic from causing social phenomena, but he subconsciously felt that he wanted to take the opportunity to make money, such a comparison, it really seems that there is a big gap between his mind and vision compared with Li Mu.

Xie Yun subconsciously looked at her daughter Zhao Ziqiu, and sighed in her heart: My good daughter, what kind of monster are you looking for, so that your parents feel ashamed in front of him.

Zhao Xianliang asked Li Mu at this moment: "With so much investment, what if the epidemic does not break out, what will happen to these materials?"

Li Mu said with a smile: "Put it on Taobao and sell it slowly, or donate it to people in need, didn't you say it just now, Taobao and Muye Technology will bear this part of the loss together, just two billion, and it will not have any substantial impact on the two companies." ”

After the C round of financing of Makino Technology, there are tens of billions of yuan in cash on the account, although the speed of spending is very fast, but it is still in the scale of tens of billions, and Taobao's current precipitation funds have also approached 10 billion, with the size of these two companies, jointly digest the loss of 2 billion, I dare not say that it is insignificant, but it will not hurt the muscles and bones.

Zhao Xianliang couldn't help but give a thumbs up, his brain was hot after being excited, and he blurted out to Li Mu: "In this way, I will also invest 500 million and hand it over to you to operate, and the specific operation principle is the same as your 2 billion!"

For an entity entrepreneur like Zhao Xianliang who takes the asset-heavy route, 500 million in cash is a large amount, and it is much more difficult for him to take out 500 million in cash than Li Mu to take out 500 million.

Xie Yun subconsciously frowned slightly when she heard her husband make such a promise, but she soon relaxed, her daughter's boyfriend has this kind of courage, and her husband responded positively, and she shouldn't hold back.

Unexpectedly, Li Mu said with a smile: "Uncle, the reason why the material reserve plan of 2 billion is set is because I judge that 2 billion should be enough, not to mention that there will be a part of YY's resource replacement attached to it, so on the whole, the total amount of materials will increase to a certain extent, and you will add so much money now, in fact, it is no longer necessary, I am afraid that it will cause a lot of waste at that time." ”

Zhao Xianliang thought for a moment, thinking that what Li Mu said was also reasonable, if Li Mu had already guessed the approximate material gap and came up with enough funds to fill this gap, it would really not make much sense for him to add additional funds to it.

So, Zhao Xianliang said to Li Mu: "If there is a temporary additional demand, remember to say hello to me, I dare not say more, five or six hundred million can still be obtained." ”

Li Mu readily agreed, but nodded vaguely: "Uncle Zhao, I think the gap will not be very big even if there is, and if you need it at that time, it will be almost as good as you prepare about 100 million." ”

Zhao Xianliang nodded, and said very generously: "When the time comes, depending on the situation, tell me directly how much you lack!"

"Good!"

Li Mu should admit it, but he didn't take Zhao Xianliang's words seriously in his heart.

Even if Zhao Xianliang said what he said in his heart, even if the two billion was really not enough, Li Mu didn't want to take money from him.

Although Zhao Xianliang's total assets are not low, since the last time he visited his headquarters base in the suburbs of Hangzhou, Li Mu said in his heart that the money in his hand must not be too much, if he really takes 500 million cash out to do a business that is impossible to make a profit, and is even very likely to lose money, he himself may also be affected.

If the epidemic is under control and the supplies are rotten in his hands, he can bear these losses, but can he really bear it?

In order to help him avoid such a possibility, he must give priority to helping him realize the part of the materials he invested, if he invests 2 billion, he invests 500 million, and finally 25 can only run away 500 million, then he must let his 500 million run first, but in that case, how can he explain to other partners?

If he is not allowed to run first, 2.5 billion will be left with 500 million in the end, a loss of 80%, and he will only be left with 100 million if he goes in the 500 million, and if he is in trouble at that time, it will be even more difficult.

Taking a step back, if he really wants to participate at that time, let him take 100 million at most, and it will be relatively easy to protect him with this 100 million at that time, even if he doesn't protect it, his loss will not be too big.

Zhao Xianliang didn't realize that he was disgusted by Li Mu.

……

That night, when Zhao Ziqiu quietly slipped into Li Mu's guest room as always, Zhao Xianliang was lying on the bed, sighing with his wife beside him.

"What Li Mu has done is really extraordinary, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is great, and he is probably the only entrepreneur who can have such a sense of social responsibility and generosity in China. ”

Xie Yun nodded approvingly: "This is one of the reasons why he has been able to go so high today, without such a strong sense of social responsibility, it is impossible for him to create 3321, and it is impossible to repeatedly inspire young people and the whole society on major occasions. Positive energy' is so popular now, and his speech at Harvard, which was rated as the most influential speech in the history of Harvard, is not one of them, even the speeches of those American presidents are not as deep as his speeches, so young people who are full of positive energy are also the most true and heavy in their hearts to feed the society. ”

Zhao Xianliang smacked his lips and said: "It seems that I still have to communicate with Li Mu, such a meaningful thing, since I know it, I can't stand by and watch, so let's take out a sum of money first and hand it over to him to operate." ”

Xie Yun couldn't help but smile and said, "Forget it, I don't think you should get involved in this matter." ”

"Why?" Zhao Xianliang couldn't help but say: "Although the funds are not very generous recently, hundreds of millions of dollars can still be taken out by gritting their teeth." ”

Xie Yun said: "With so much investment recently, it is difficult to get hundreds of millions of cash, right? ”

"That's right. Zhao Xianliang sighed lightly and said: "Funds are indeed a problem, the recent investment of all parties does have a large proportion of encroachment on cash flow, or not as rich as Li Mu's wealth!"

Xie Yun smiled and said, "When you said you were going to take 500 million today, didn't you see that Li Mu was a little disgusted with you?"

"Dislike me?" Zhao Xianliang frowned and asked, "What do you dislike me?"

"That shouldn't be. Xie Yun said with a smile: "I feel that people think that you are dragging your feet, if you really let you take 500 million to come in, with Li Mu's style of doing things, you will definitely try to resist the risk on yourself to ensure that you get out of the way, at that time, did you say that you were dragging others back?"

Zhao Xianliang subconsciously said: "I don't need him to protect me, I just want to do my best." ”

Xie Yun shook his head and said with a smile: "You think so, but Li Mu definitely won't think so, it doesn't matter if he loses 2 billion, don't say lose 500 million, these 500 million will be enough for you to have a headache if you can't get it out within a year, how can he see you in trouble because of doing good deeds with him? Instead of bothering to protect you at that time, it is better not to let you in from the beginning." ”

Zhao Xianliang didn't speak for a long time after listening to this, and only after a long time did he sigh stupidly: "I didn't expect to let this kid dislike ......"
