Chapter Ninety-Four: Expanding Against the Trend
"Uncle, you say, if we buy these Internet cafes now, will we be okay?" Wang Qiang pondered for a moment and asked. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"What, buy the Internet café now?" Chen Haipeng asked in disbelief.
At this time, although the country had basically controlled the spread of the plague, there was little progress in the treatment of plague patients, and Internet cafes were still high-risk places. Because of the ravages of the plague, the economic growth rate of the whole country has slowed down a lot.
Seeing Wang Qiang nodded, Chen Haipeng said a little anxiously: "Wang Qiang, you have to think clearly, now is the plague period, the business of Internet cafes is very bad, let's take over these Internet cafes, we must be prepared for long-term losses."
"Let's not talk about that, you say, is there anyone willing to sell Internet cafes now?" Wang Qiang asked.
"There must be" Chen Haipeng nodded and affirmed: "If someone gives me a cost price now, I am willing to sell our Internet café immediately, after all, no one wants to bear a long-term loss."
"Uncle, didn't you think there weren't enough Internet cafes at the beginning of the year? Now, here's your chance. You are in our entire Sanqin Province, looking for those Internet cafes with good locations, acquiring them, and expanding the territory of our Z-point network technology company," Wang Qiang said.
"Wang Qiang, you won't tell the truth, right?" Chen Haipeng thought he had misheard and asked.
"Of course it's true," Wang Qiang said.
"No, I don't agree," Chen Haipeng suddenly objected.
"What's wrong, uncle?" Wang Qiang asked.
In the past, his uncle Chen Haipeng basically didn't question his decision, but today he suddenly disagreed, and Wang Qiang felt a little surprised.
"Wang Qiang, I know that opening an Internet café is a good business. If it weren't for this plague, I'd definitely agree with you. It's just that now, the plague is raging, and Internet cafes, which are densely populated entertainment venues, have long been focused on by the state, and they are basically closed for rectification, so let's change to a different industry," Chen Haipeng advised.
"Uncle, this plague is a global outbreak, so it has received great attention from all countries in the world, which means that all countries are studying how to treat this plague. I believe that this war of plague annihilation will not last long," Wang Qiang said.
"You said, this plague is about to end" Hearing Wang Qiang's sudden news, Chen Haipeng asked with some eagerness, after all, this is related to whether the Internet café can operate normally in the future.
"Hmm," Wang Qiang nodded and said, "Uncle, when did I miss it?" ”。
"That's true, but can we wait for the plague to pass before buying the Internet café?"
Chen Haipeng is still a little worried, during this period of time, the Internet cafes in Chencang City are basically closed, and he is a little headache by the daily losses of the Internet cafes in Chencang City.
"Uncle, now that I am buying an Internet café, one is that someone is willing to sell, and the other is that the price will not be too high. If we wait until the plague passes, regardless of the price, it is estimated that few people are willing to sell their Internet cafes," Wang Qiang said, "Compared to what we get, this risk is still worth taking."
Listening to Wang Qiang's explanation in such detail, Chen Haipeng knew that Wang Qiang must have made up his mind a long time ago.
"Okay, I'll do it" Chen Haipeng nodded and said.
After saying that, he was going to leave.
"Wait, uncle"
Wang Qiang stopped Chen Haipeng, who had just turned around, walked up to him, and said, "Uncle, for those Internet cafes with good business, if you can, buy the property where the Internet café is located."
"That's a lot of money," Chen reminded.
"Uncle, we're not short of money now," Wang Qiang said, looking like an upstart.
Hearing Wang Qiang say this, Chen Haipeng was worried at first about whether Wang Qiang had become inflated because he suddenly had so much money. But seeing that although Wang Qiang's expression was proud, his eyes were still clear, he knew that Wang Qiang was just joking.
"Yes, we're not short of money now," Chen Haipeng also laughed.
After talking about business, Chen Haipeng planned to go back.
"Uncle, take a good rest when you go home," Wang Qiang said.
"No, I'll go to Anxi and Qindu tomorrow, and find an intermediary to help us find resources first" Chen Haipeng waved his hand and said, turning around and walking towards his car.
"By the way, uncle, what is the name of the company we registered in Cayman," Wang Qiang said.
"Treasure Island Investment Co., Ltd." Chen Haipeng turned around and replied.
The man had already arrived at the car.
"Did my aunt give it to me?" Wang Qiang asked.
"Yes, your uncle and I don't know English, and when she heard that our company is an investment, she said that if she wants to pronounce the name, she will feel rich," Chen Haipeng said.
Wang Qiang nodded and didn't answer, he didn't know what to name, he asked his uncle to go to the Cayman Islands to register an investment company, and he just told his uncle that he could just name a company with an English name.
Seeing that Wang Qiang didn't speak again, Chen Haipeng turned around, got into the car, started the car, and left.
When Wang Qiang came back to his senses, he found that his uncle Chen Haipeng's car had gone far and returned home.
After arriving home, Wang Qiang had dinner, returned to his room, sat on his bed, and said secretly in his heart: "These 800 million yuan seems to be a lot, but it is still not enough to buy Internet cafes in the province, so I can only buy good Internet cafes and properties in various cities first, and then develop to the counties when I have the opportunity."
There are ten cities in Sanqin Province, in addition to Anxi is the provincial capital, Guanzhong also has Chencang City, Qindu City, Tongshui City and Weibei City, a total of five cities. The population of Guanzhong accounts for two-thirds of the total population of Sanqin. There are also five cities in northern and southern Qin, which are not very populous, but they also account for one-third of the population of Sanqin Province.
Until the Chinese New Year, his uncle Chen Haipeng has been busy with this matter. After Wang Qiang's Spring Festival, his uncle Chen Haipeng called Wang Qiang, saying that all cities had found suitable Internet cafes, and basically reached an acquisition intention, and during the Spring Festival, it had reached a deal with 30 Internet cafes in Qindu City and Anxi City, and Wang Qiang's Z-point Network Technology Company had 30 Internet cafes merged, plus the original Internet cafes, there are now more than 70 Internet cafes. By the time all the cities in Sanqin Province are concerned, the Internet cafes that are interested in them will be acquired, and Wang Qiang will own nearly 150 Internet cafes.
When Wang Qiang started school, nearly a month later, his uncle Chen Haipeng came with good news:
"Wang Qiang, all the deals have been reached, we have acquired a total of 110 Internet cafes, plus the original 43 Internet cafes in Chencang City, we now have a total of 153 Internet cafes," Chen Haipeng said with high emotions.
"How much of the property where the Internet café is located will we take?" Wang Qiang asked.
Wang Qiang knows that housing prices will appreciate in the future, and Internet cafes are basically opened in commercial real estate in prime areas, and the commercial real estate in these prime areas will definitely appreciate above ordinary real estate in the future.
"There are less than 100 of them, and more than 50 of them are either asking too high for a high price or not selling them at all," Chen Haipeng said, saying that Chen Haipeng's high mood just now became low.
Although Chen Haipeng was a little resentful about not taking all the properties, Wang Qiang felt that it was quite good, after all, everyone was willing to sell their houses.
"That's good, uncle. How much money do we have left? Wang Qiang asked.
"There are nearly 100 million funds left," Chen Haipeng regained his composure and said.
