Chapter 397: Making money is just incidental
After serving as the general manager of THE TOP SHOP FOR MORE THAN A YEAR, LI QINGHUAN HAS NOW GONE FROM BEING HONEST AND FEARFUL AT THE BEGINNING TO BEING CALM AND CALM NOW.
When she first took over the company, she often had insomnia, worried that she had messed up the company, so how would she face Wang Ye.
gritted his teeth and persevered through the initial stage, the company slowly became regular, and he also had a mature management team, and Li Qinghuan's work became easier.
However, she is no longer satisfied with the status quo.
As a general manager, if you only keep to success and dare not expand, you will never be a competent leader.
Especially for a vibrant and fast-growing business like THE TOP SHOP, IT NEEDS TO MOVE FASTER.
It takes better results to live up to Wang Ye and put this company in his own hands.
Creating a real luxury brand is what inspired Li Qinghuan to see Wang Ye dreaming of this cosmetics brand.
If cosmetics can create a top brand, why can't clothing?
Of course, there are specific factors for the generation of floating dreams, but it is more about the operation of the later period of the royal industry.
Domestic cosmetics brands, compared with domestic clothing brands, are honestly even worse. But in this way, Floating Dream has still become the top one in the global cosmetics industry.
Then, on the basis of THE TOP SHOP, it should not be a big problem to join hands with the already famous big-name designers to create a top clothing brand.
As Vera Wang said, at this time, if you want to build a new luxury brand, you must have those three factors.
And these three points, THE TOP SHOP HAS BEEN FULLY EQUIPPED!
This is the line of Li Qinghuan, she wants to invite Vera Wang, together with Alexander Wang, to create a top clothing brand on the company's platform.
β¦β¦
Vera Wang is also excited, this new company has invested no less than 200 million US dollars, and the 5% stake is 10 million US dollars!
All I have to pay for is to provide a few series of designs every year and stand for new brands.
Is it a loss?
No loss at all!
The most valuable thing for a designer is design, because her fame and net worth depend on design.
But the least valuable thing is also the design, and if you don't have a good platform to showcase these designs, it's worthless!
However, there are some issues to be made clear in advance, and Vera Wang is both a designer and a businessman, and of course there is no shortage of shrewdness.
"I could have agreed to be the design director of the new company, but I want to keep my current private label, Vera Wang. β
She is leaving a way back for herself, this Vera Wang brand has been in business for many years, although the scale is like that.
However, you can make at least a few million dollars a year, which is a stable income.
The new company described by Li Qinghuan is of course a huge investment and has unlimited prospects. But who can say what lies ahead?
If you can't do it, if you put all your effort into it, you will lose all your money.
Therefore, she wants to keep her old brand and leave a way back for herself.
Of course, Li Qinghuan understood what Vera Wang meant, and she smiled slightly: "No problem, but your design should give priority to our new brand." β
This is the way it should be, and Vera Wang can't take advantage of it all.
Her annual collection design styles have to be selected by the new company before they can be used for her own brand.
The two agreed in this way, and Li Qinghuan returned to Pengcheng to prepare for the establishment of a new company.
And Vera Wang doesn't need to settle in Pengcheng, the designer has a lot of freedom, she just needs to come up with enough design styles every year.
β¦β¦
When Li Qinghuan reported to Wang Ye with a complete preparation plan, Wang Ye was taken aback.
He didn't expect that Li Qinghuan was not so ambitious that he would become a luxury brand by himself.
After listening to Li Qinghuan's detailed explanation, Wang Ye also felt that it was not impossible to succeed.
"You've counted me all in. Wang Ye reproached with a smile, of course he didn't really blame Li Qinghuan, but more joy.
After taking this step, Li Qinghuan can be regarded as truly growing.
It is no longer about using subordinate thinking to do work, but really treating yourself as the CEO of a company.
At this point, Wang Yan took even a step faster than Li Qinghuan!
She had just taken over the Huashang brand, and the internship period had not even passed, so she was thinking about how to change the company.
This is also the reason why Wang Ye is impressed by her.
Of course, this also has a lot to do with the personalities of the two.
Li Qinghuan's original personality is steady, and she must lay a good foundation before she can consider further things.
Wang Yan is radical, she has nothing, and she is not afraid to wear shoes barefoot!
I can't say which one is better, it's just that the path chosen is different, but in the end, it's all going to the same destination.
That is, to make the company better.
β¦β¦
As for investing 200 million US dollars into it, Wang Ye didn't take it seriously.
If Li Qinghuan can really create a luxury brand, let alone 200 million US dollars, even if it is 2 billion US dollars, he will generously take it out and support it to the end!
Now he is also looking forward to what kind of fame Li Qinghuan can make.
In the dream, Li Qinghuan has been following him to do things, and there is no problem with his ability and attitude. At that time, the platform was too small, and even Wang Ye was just the general manager of a medium-sized company.
Li Qinghuan is just his left and right hand.
But now, it's completely different, Wang Ye and Li Qinghuan are standing on a higher and bigger platform.
Wang Ye proved that he could do better, so good that it was beyond everyone's expectations.
And Li Qinghuan has come to prove herself.
β¦β¦
"What's the name for the new brand?"
Wang Ye suddenly thought of a problem, if he wants to be a top big name, of course, the name is also very important.
"This is where you come to help. Li Qinghuan said with a mischievous smile.
Wang Ye was a little confused for a while, and asked himself for help?
It's incompetent.
"I want to use the floating life like a dream!"
Li Qinghuan unveiled the mystery.
Wang Ye suddenly realized, it turned out that this girl had this idea.
It has to be said, though, that it's a good idea.
In order to prevent the appearance of "copycats", he basically registered all categories in one go, and clothing is of course one of them.
Fusheng Ruomeng has long been a world-renowned brand, and in the world's upper circles, it is simply known to everyone.
Now, Li Qinghuan is using the past as a brand for a new clothing company, which is taking advantage of the situation.
Then the fame of Floating Dream Cosmetics directly made his clothing brand well-known to all potential consumers.
This trick is quite the style of Wang Ye when he let Fusheng Ruomeng and Hermes make a joint model.
It's just a pity for Hermes, which has accumulated the best customers for a hundred years, not only used by Wang Ye's cosmetics brand, but now it has to exert its residual heat to contribute to Li Qinghuan's new clothing brand.
As a result, the new clothing company was named "Floating Dream Clothing Co., Ltd.", and the English brand name was "MAKE UP FOR EVER"!
THE TOP SHOP holds 90% of the shares, and Alexander Wang and Vera Wang each have 5% of the shares.
It is expected to invest $200 million over two years.
Brand positioning, top brands, of course, the price will be a lot higher than THE TOP SHOP, DIRECTLY ON PAR WITH CHANEL, GUCCI and other big brands.
For the time being, Wang Ye is still in charge of the preferred company, and he can only promise to support the brand in terms of contacts and publicity when it is like a dream.
But the preparatory work in the early stage can only be done by Li Qinghuan himself.
β¦β¦
On April 22, 2013, Fusheng Ruomeng Clothing Company was formally established.
In this month, another small thing happened, that is, the Forbes Global Rich List was officially announced.
In Forbes' latest 2013 list of the world's billionaires, the number of billionaires on the list reached a record 1,426.
Mexican telecom tycoon Carlos Slimelu is the world's richest man for the fourth consecutive year, and Warren Buffett is fourth in the top three, the first time in 14 years that he has been squeezed out of the top three.
According to the report, Carlos Slimelu has been crowned the richest man in the world for the fourth consecutive year.
The Mexican telecommunications tycoon's net worth reached $73 billion, up from $69 billion in 2012.
Bill Gates retains the second spot, with a net worth of $67 billion.
Amancio Ortega, the founder of fashion brand Zara, jumped two places from 2012, replacing Warren Buffett as the world's third-richest man, with a net worth of $57 billion.
Warren Buffett, on the other hand, is in fourth place with $53.5 billion.
This is the first time since 2000 that Buffett has been squeezed out of the top three. Despite this, Buffett's wealth increased by $9.5 billion in 2012, the second-highest increase among all the richest people on the list.
With $31 billion, Li Ka-shing ranked 9th, ranking first among Chinese.
Wang Ye's wealth is basically concentrated in the European royal fund, and the main assets of the European royal fund are now 300 million shares of Meigou.com and 45% of the shares of Estee Lauder Companies.
These two large assets, with a total value of $57 billion!
However, the fund still has $20 billion in loans, and its net worth is only $37 billion.
Wang Ye owns 65% of the shares of European Emperor Fund, and his personal assets are 24 billion US dollars, ranking second among Chinese in the world!
Ranked 20th in the world!
In front of him is Amazon's Jeff Bezos, and behind him are the two founders of Google, Brin and Page.
Sure enough, as Wang Ye said, his assets this year have shrunk a lot compared with the list of mainland riches in the second half of last year.
Of course, this was intentional on his part.
Although the current assets have shrunk a lot on the books, the potential is even greater.
Not to mention for the time being, Meigou has integrated online and offline channels, and holds shares in two major cosmetics groups. In the future, the market value will more than double.
The Estee Lauder Companies, in the next two years, will also usher in a surge in performance and market value.
β¦β¦
If Wang Ye hadn't engaged in the European Emperor Fund, his net worth this year would inevitably surpass Li Chaoren and become the richest Chinese in the world.
However, that is just a false name, and what Wang Ye wants to do is not just the richest man in China.
He hopes that he can become the richest man in the world!
Now he is still young and not in a hurry.
But even so, Wang Ye's net worth is firmly ranked first in the mainland, and the second place is Mr. Zhong of Wahaha, whose net worth is only 10 billion US dollars, which is less than half of Wang Ye.
β¦β¦
Last year, Wang Ye topped the Forbes mainland rich list, which only caused a sensation in China.
This year, although his net worth has shrunk a lot, he still ranks 20th on the list of the world's richest people, and he is the youngest one in the entire list!
This has caused quite a stir around the world.
"At the age of 27, he is already worth $20 billion! This newspaper reveals for you the road to the start of this new rich man. γ
This is the headline of a more professional economic newspaper.
"Rich and expensive, the 27-year-old Prince Born has become the prince charming in the hearts of girls around the world. γ
This is the headline of general entertainment magazines.
"Princess Isabella is afraid to be the biggest winner! The fiancΓ© is really rich and handsome. γ
That's the front page headline of The Sun.
β¦β¦
However, Wang Ye's net worth has also aroused the jealousy of many people.
Wang Ye and Zuckerberg were once called by Forbes as "the peerless duo", representing a new generation of entrepreneurs in the East and the West.
Now, Wang Ye is in the top 20 with a net worth of more than 20 billion US dollars, while Zuckerberg, because of the decline in stock prices, has a net worth of more than 10 billion, and he did not even enter the top 50, ranking in the top 90, almost falling out of the top 100.
Therefore, when the reporter interviewed Zuckerberg and asked him what he thought of Wang Ye's net worth now far surpassing him.
Zuckerberg said slightly sourly: "Facebook is still on the rise, the future prospects are very bright, I believe that it will not take three years for Facebook's market value to skyrocket at least five times!"
And Meigou has reached its peak.
It's not fair to compare your company with a company that has no potential. β
The implication is that in two or three years, his net worth will skyrocket fivefold, that is, five or six billion US dollars, and he can even enter the top five of the world's richest list.
Of course, it will far surpass the royal industry.
Because the largest piece of Wang Ye's assets, Meigou.com, has reached its peak.
His words can't be said to be unreasonable, but when they appear in the newspaper, they have a different meaning.
Zuckerberg said that in three years, his net worth will be three times that of the king's business!"
"Zuckerberg believes that Meigou is about to decline!"
"Facebook is grossly underrated, while Meigo.com is grossly overrated. γ
β¦β¦
When the reporter interviewed Wang Ye and asked him what he thought of Zuckerberg's remarks, Wang Ye did not take it to heart.
He smiled slightly and said: "There is an old saying in Huaguo, which is called the ambition of a bird's bird! I don't attach much importance to the market value of a company.
What I value is that this company can fulfill its mission, whether it can fulfill its greatest social responsibility, whether it can change the industry pattern, and make the whole industry better!
And the market value and making money are things that can be realized by the way in the development of this company. β
These words have also been widely reprinted by major media.
From the words of the two people, it is clear which is higher and which is lower, and the size of the pattern.
