Chapter 92: The Internet Café Business
In the champagne and applause, Lifang Online was acquired by SOHU, and in the same applause, Xinlifang Information Technology Co., Ltd., with a registered capital of 5 million US dollars, was established.
Lao Zhang is worthy of Lao Zhang, who integrated the employees of the two companies in less than a month, and it is also a typical SOHU style - meritocracy and human affection.
Lifang Online's political and economic news is stronger than SOHU, and Lifang Online's editor-in-chief Chen Tong will be the acting editor-in-chief of SOHU, and the former acting editor-in-chief will be his deputy......; Three under five divided by two, the old employees and the new employees each eat according to their abilities, although some old employees are not convinced, but they can't say anything. In the past, the acting editor-in-chief and the acting editor-in-chief were all based on their ability, but now their ability is not as good as others, and there is nothing to say about being someone's deputy.
As for the technical strongmen of the new Lifang Company, Lao Zhang can't dig if he wants to, and Comrade Wang is not jealous, not to mention that Li Jiaming is staring at him and doesn't let him dig it.
"Jiaming, your ass is crooked, right?"
"You know the! I don't think anyone else is missing, if only I could use up that $5 million in a year." ”
Lao Zhang, who was greedy, hurriedly lowered his voice and said, "Jiaming, have you found ICQ's profit model?"
"No, Lao Zhang, we can't be too impatient, it took us more than a year to find a profit model, right? Hehe, whether we can find it or not, at least we have to continue to raise funds until we press his shares to about 30%. ”
", that's what you did to us in the first place!"
said that he leaked his mouth, but Li Jiaming sneered at each other: "The dog bites Lu Dongbin, in that situation, do you think Lao Tzu has flowery intestines?"
Unexpectedly, the treacherous and slippery Lao Zhang was afraid and said: "That's the same, do you know what I was most worried about at the beginning? I was worried that you wouldn't be able to raise money, and I was worried that you wouldn't be able to hold on to showing your feet, but I didn't expect us to finally survive!"
Hey, this old boy is pretending, not as strong as Lao Tzu imagined?
"Nonsense, Lao Tzu is not a superman, I really think I am not in a hurry? You don't know, sometimes when I am alone at night, I want to forget it, so let's leave it at that. But Lao Tzu is not convinced, why can someone become a billionaire, and Lao Tzu will suffer from poverty? Why does Lao Tzu study for half his life, and all the doctors of MIT are taken, but in the end they are not even as good as the second and third generations of officials?"
Yes, it's not a mortal but a mortal, at least it's not a demon, an immortal, and a human taste.
Li Jiaming took the cigarette from the house, took out the lighter to light the fire for the two, and discussed: "Lao Zhang, we still can't take it lightly, we have to keep an eye on the latecomers before and after the listing." ”
"Well, if you can co-opt, you will be co-opted, if you can be acquired, you will be acquired, and if you can't be co-opted and can't be acquired, you will be encircled and suppressed. If you do this business, you have to find your opponent with a telescope, and you can kill all your opponents, and only if others dare not do this line of work can you win!"
That's fine, the portal of non-media groups, the whole country can only be SOHU. Li Jiaming, who has been busy for half a month, is also ready to go to recuperate, so as not to have another conflict with this old boy. Alas, the two of them are still too strong in personality, it doesn't matter if they discuss and cooperate together when they have something, and it is easy for both parties to look bad when they get together when they have nothing to do.
"Don't go, what should I do over there?"
"You just look at it."
This is really not good, Zhang Zhaoyang admires Li Jiaming's ability to figure out people's hearts. In the case of chain Internet cafes, one more point may be millions of profits, even if he is confident, he does not dare to use the ready-made high ginseng.
This old chapter, I don't know where he got his confidence, Lenovo gave the patent fee and the software fee, and still wants to get a piece of the pie? Maybe the cattle have this problem, and they feel that there is nothing that cannot be done in the world, so they can move forward without hesitation.
"Jiaming, the current Internet café can pay back in half a year, and after using our solution, maybe three months is enough!"
"Yes, but without Lenovo's nationwide sales channels and good relationship with the government, would we be able to do it ourselves? Besides, do we have spare funds?"
We don't have the money, but IBM has it, Microsoft has it!"
That's right, as long as the "Internet Café Overall Solution" is put in front of those investors, it is no problem to value SOHU at 400 million, but is it worth it?
Li Jiaming sat down again, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head dejectedly, the other party would not agree.
"Old Zhang, it won't work. Let's think about it from another perspective, if you were Mr. Qin, what would you do?"
"I'll accept Sohu's funds and get your share of the pie. ”
"That's wrong, if I were Lao Qin, I wouldn't have dumped you!"
"Why?"
No why, opening an Internet café requires manpower and social resources, and Lenovo will not open an Internet café in person with today's scale, but will only establish a few flagship stores in various provincial capitals to attract others to join. If sohu, who doesn't have a deep foundation, just pays a lot of money, with Mr. Qin's character, in addition to the negotiated conditions, will he give you an extra piece of the pie?
"It is precisely because it is a profiteering industry that it is necessary to be able to eat both black and white dishes to ensure that no one in the Internet café makes trouble. Lao Qin As long as they support a few agents in each province to engage in this business, the hardware upgrades, technical support, and franchise fees in the future will be enough for them to earn, so why bother to get involved in such troubles?"
"How so?"
How could this not be? In a large Internet café, there are hundreds of Internet café machines at every turn, and hundreds of young people with strong blood and strength get together, if the boss can't control the scene, the devil knows what chaos will happen.
"Let's take an analogy, I'll go to the Internet with Weiwei, if there's a little hooligan next to her teasing her. Am I going to be a turtle with a shrunken head? If you're the boss, do you keep order, or do you just let it go?"
At present, Zhongguancun is a mixed place, and fights are indispensable every day, Lao Zhang couldn't help but scold: "!"
After scolding, Lao Zhang was finally kind and reminded: "Jiaming, the company can't do it, Chen Dong seems to be very well-connected and rich, you go and do it with him." I know that Lao Qin is a person, and his official affairs must be public, and he will talk about some favors in private affairs. When you make money, it's much easier to control the affairs of the profit. ”
Hmmm? This guy doesn't know that he got a loan from Kyle? Kyle's old boy is really exquisite, and he deserves to be a professional manager trained in a business school! Suddenly, Li Jiaming also wanted to find such a professional manager who strictly abides by professional ethics to take care of his business affairs.
After coming out of the company, Li Jiaming went straight to the eldest sister's company, and waited in the office for more than half an hour before waiting for the tired but dancing couple. The brother-in-law and the others did a good job, just hanging a brand of SOHU real estate, can make the small bosses who sell electronic products admit their accounts, and the building has not yet laid a foundation to produce a design drawing and renderings, and there is an endless stream of people who come to ask the shop. There is no way, Zhongguancun is the largest electronic product distribution center in North China, and the rent of the store is rising when the business is good, so that the bosses who make money want to buy the shop.
Hehe, when the municipal government decides to vigorously develop Zhongguancun next year, it is estimated that they will have to make a lot of money.
"Brother-in-law, eldest sister, how's it going?"
Business is good, mood is good, and the two couples are smiling from ear to ear.
"The situation is very good, and it is estimated that it will be sold out before it is built. Hey, how do you have time to go around today?"
"Help you turn your money around. ”
As soon as his wife and brother finished speaking, Deng Hao, who usually likes to surf the Internet, was startled.
"Amin, you're not kidding, are you?
"Count yourself!"
Li Jiaming took the pen and paper on his desk and listed the costs and income one by one, and couldn't help but startle him. A large Internet café with 200 Internet café machines, including transfer fees, decoration and other investments, is up to 1.5 million, but the daily turnover can reach 30,000 or 40,000 yuan.
"Ah Ming, I have to partner with Ah Dong in this matter. We are familiar with the relationship in Haidian District, not in other places, he has been in the capital for more than ten years, and he is much more familiar than us. ”
On the street, the eldest brother-in-law knows more about things than Lao Zhang, and Li Jiaming, who knows more than the eldest brother-in-law, whispered: "I know, how much of a scene can be done by the guerrilla soldiers? ”
"Hmm"
The couple settled the account, and the eldest sister said excitedly: "Collect the advance payment immediately, and it's no problem to draw 400 million!"
"Ah Hua, if you can't do it, you have to set aside shares for others. To do this business, you must be able to eat people who are official and black. ”
"We are not only in the capital, but also in Jinmen, Shimen, and Quancheng, as long as there is a network, we will open it!"
is worthy of her own sister, according to her tossing method, she will toss out a super-large chain Internet café.
