Chapter 132: Going to the United States

The dinner with the Diao brothers and sisters ended happily, Diao Yijie was quite smart and didn't mention his purpose again, but he didn't have to worry too much, although Chen Zier closed his door, he had already instructed Cai Zhaoxi to open a window for him.

Soon after, Chen Zier and Shi Yangqing attended the opening ceremony of a store that was a little special because it was located next to a Haojia convenience store.

He got up very early and got into Shi Yangqing's car.

In the car, Shi Yangqing asked him, "Have you ever understood game theory?"

Chen Zier shook his head and said righteously: "I have no interest in anything related to mathematics. ”

This reason was invincible, and Shi Yangqing had to laugh dryly in response.

Then he said: "If there is a straight beach, and two vendors A and B sell to tourists evenly scattered on the beach at the same price and the same quality, do you think they will draw a line in the middle and honestly stay on their own half of the beach and sell?"

Chen Zier woke up too early in the morning and was a little dazed, but he still tried to use his brain: "Hmm...... It seems that everyone can get along with each other, but since you asked sincerely, I always feel that the answer is not like this. ”

"The answer is that they'll crowd the middle of the beach to do cold drinks, and even if it makes them extremely competitive and they can't take care of customers at both ends of the beach, they're going to do it," Shi said. ”

Chen Zier didn't figure it out and asked: "Why? Under the fierce competition, maybe you don't make as much money as you used to? And the customers at both ends of the beach can't take care of it, which means that the whole market is made smaller by them.

Shi Yangqing said: "So, this is the game brought about by the desire of the human heart." A and B do the same business, and there is competition between them, which is a kind of game. ”

"If you think about it from the perspective of any of them, as long as my means are legal, I can make a little more money by attracting more customers, based on this idea, both A and B will slowly move the stall to the middle, and the final result is naturally that they are all doing business together. ”

"Because no one will let it, even if A does, will B go back honestly? No, B can't wait for A to leave this beach!"

Chen Zier felt a little interesting, it seemed to be quite reasonable, so thinking about it, he said: "I used to wonder why the layout of the city's commercial outlets, there are often many stores in the same industry are crowded together, you see what Zhonghai has'Electronic Street', 'Snack Street', and what 'Clothing City', I always think these people are not stupid, why do they have to open stores together, so the competition is not very big, but I seem to understand when you say this." ”

Shi Yangqing said with a smile: "Therefore, we are not completely trying to suppress them by opening the store next to Haojia, this is just a reasonable reaction under market competition." ”

"There are examples of this everywhere in business, for example, different airlines in the same city often open flights to the same destination at the same time, it's not stupid, it's all competition. ”

Chen Zier admires that Sun Hong will never consider problems and manage the company from the perspective of Shi Yangqing.

……

At half past six in the morning, the pudding convenience store opened, and the presence of Chen Zier and Shi Yangqing, two leaders, made the employees here look nervous.

But Shi Yangqing was very serious, and his eyes scanned every detail of the store.

Chen Zier was quite happy to see a lot of people at first, but there was nothing interesting in it, and he felt bored after watching it for a while, so he ran to the convenience store next to him.

Pudding is somewhat famous, and today's new store opening still robs a lot of customers, and the number of people in the convenience store across the wall is obviously less than that of Pudding.

Chen Zier rummaged around on their shelves, and made some comparisons with his own in his memory, in general, pudding has a little price advantage, and there is no way to make suppliers make some profits when shipping a large volume.

After Shi Yangqing looked at his store for a while and found that everything was normal, he turned his head and found that Chen Zier was gone, and the employee told her that Mr. Chen had gone next door.

Shi Yangqing couldn't cry or laugh, this person was really interesting.

……

After returning to the headquarters from the store, Chen Zier talked about another thing.

"The idea of an investment company, I'm about to officially start operation, and yesterday I called lawyer Yang to ask her to prepare to register the company, and the name is set to be Shengshi. ”

Chen Zier only had a general understanding of many details of large companies in his previous life, and there may be more in China, and the basic eyes in foreign countries are black, but there are two companies that he is quite familiar with the development history.

The first one is called Apple, and the reason is very simple, this guy who loves to read books has carefully read a book - "The Biography of Steve Jobs", which is a best-selling book that has created sales miracles in both Chinese and English, and Chen Zier bought it to read.

The second company is called Google, and I learned about this company out of curiosity: why is it all searching, how can Baidu's market value of four or five billion dollars, and Google's four or five billion dollars, an order of magnitude difference.

And there is a message in his memory: In August 1998, Larry Page and Sergei Brin, who were still at Stanford, were running the streets to attract investors because of a lack of funds, and they succeeded, and Andy Betoshem and David Cheryton wrote a check for $100,000 to the two.

This is the first angel investment Google has received.

Then, in early September, the two took the money and rented a garage in Menlo Park, California.

Google's miracle starts here.

This is not the amount of wealth that can be compared with a few houses, Chen Zier has long had a plan to go to the United States at this time.

in the office.

Shi Yangqing has no objection to the establishment of an investment company.

When it comes to how much money she has contributed, she is a little embarrassed, and has a kind of shame similar to 'not keeping her word', "I may have paid so much money that I started talking to you about." ”

Chen Zier asked, "Why?"

"Spent. ”

Chen Zier: ?

"What are you doing? Can you be reliable?"

"I went to Yanjing to change the house for my parents, and my father likes to be vassal, so I bought a few famous calligraphy and paintings. ”

Chen Zier vomited blood, the key 'filial piety to parents' is absolutely correct, what else can he say?

Shi Yangqing was a little entangled, "But I still have one million." ”

Chen Zier stopped, "Forget it, just keep it for yourself, my investment may not be cashed out soon, in case one day your father wants you to buy something, it won't be good if you say you don't have money." ”

This has to be done, he had already emailed Robert earlier, saying that he was going to visit Stanford, and he wanted to go in July, after all, you have to find these two guys first.
