Chapter 298: Are You Our Star Core Vegetarian?
But for this kind of thing, Tang Feng didn't know how to comfort Wang Shengli. I could only silently pick up the wine glass and drink a glass with Wang Shengli, who was in a somewhat depressed mood.
Wang Shengli put down the cup and said with a smile: "Brother, I shouldn't talk to you about these things today, these are all disappointing words, but if I don't talk to you, I feel uncomfortable in my heart." I'm sorry, brother! ”
Tang Feng smiled and waved his hand and said: "Brother Wang, in fact, I am still a little grateful that you can tell me this, you may not know that I have been developing abroad in the past few years, and even my nationality has been changed to the United States." But my heart is actually still at home all along. Don't look at me outside, private jets, bodyguards with guns, and some celebrities come and go, but in my heart, it's really a little lonely! ”
Wang Shengli smiled and quipped: "Why don't we change?" ”
Tang Feng laughed, "Change for change, as long as Brother Wang, you think you can get rid of those mining predators, there is really no problem for the two of us to change, isn't it just an oil field, it's nothing!" ”
"Damn, you guy's mouth is big enough! Well, interlaced like a mountain, although your mess is enviably tight, but my brother is still a little self-aware, we can't get your stall, let's honestly get our jewelry! ”
Tang Feng picked up a piece of beef with chopsticks, put it in his mouth and chewed it a few times, and said the idea he had conceived in his heart: "Brother Wang, when I heard you say this just now, I have a general idea in my heart. You just said that the key to the current jewelry industry lies in the source of raw materials, as long as the source of jewelry raw materials can be guaranteed, then is the jewelry industry still a head? ”
"Of course! Brother, if there are really high-quality and low-cost raw materials, and the quantity is guaranteed, it is definitely quite interesting! It's not my brother, I'm bragging. If there is a stable source of high-quality and low-cost jewelry raw materials, I can develop my small store into a large jewelry group in China within five years! ”
"Hey, I said brother, you don't want to get involved in this industry, do you?"
Tang Feng nodded slightly and said, "Why not?" I have money under my ass now, and my wealth is increasing every day by a number you can't imagine. With so much money, I can't use it at all, so I want to invest in a project in China, which should be to leave a dowry for my sister! ”
"Tsk, you are a brother, you really have nothing to say! If I had a brother like you, I would have to kiss you! ”
Tang Feng smiled and shook his head.
Wang Shengli said: "Brother, it's quite good that you have this idea, in terms of your net worth." It is possible to start a large enough jewelry chain group in minutes. However, I recommend not investing in this industry, because as I just said, if you don't have a stable, high-quality and low-cost raw material supply channel, you will end up with a series of huge investments such as leasing or buying real estate, decoration, and sales staff training! ”
"No, Brother Wang, there are still a lot of jewelry raw material suppliers in this world, why can't you find a good one? Besides. We have plenty of money to use! Tang Feng asked with some disbelief, in Tang Feng's opinion. There are very few things that can't be bought with money in this world, as long as the funds are abundant enough, I don't believe that those jewelry raw material suppliers don't make up for themselves, and don't worry about finding a suitable raw material supplier. After all, no one wants to get along with the green Franklin, and the last thing Tang Feng lacks now is this kind of green banknotes.
Wang Shengli smiled bitterly and shook his head, looking very disapproving of Tang Feng's idea.
"Brother. You have not been exposed to this industry, and your understanding of this industry is only on the surface, and you don't understand some of the main internal issues at all, so it is normal for you to have such thoughts. I'll tell you, brother, if you get involved in this industry. How much are you going to invest? Half a billion dollars? A billion or two billion dollars? Hehe, I know you're not bad for money, but in this industry, it's not enough to just be bad for money. ”
After a pause, Wang Shengli continued to Tang Feng, who was puzzled: "If you want to invest heavily in this industry, you must first find a stable source of goods. First of all, gold, this is the foundation, at present, individual jewelers like us take gold from the market, and those large chain groups, their gold is generally directly from gold producers or even from gold mines, this piece alone, the cost is much cheaper than the vast majority of individual jewelers. ”
"Secondly, other sources of raw materials for jewelry. For example, for diamonds, those large group companies go to South Africa and other major diamond producing areas every year to pick up goods directly, which can not only ensure the stability of production, but also reduce costs. However, diamonds are also non-renewable resources, and there will be less when they are dug up, and the current international diamond production is gradually shrinking, which will inevitably cause two situations, one is the rise in diamond prices and the instability of the supply. It's good to say that the price has risen, but if the supply of goods is unstable, it will be a big annoyance, customers will not care about your supply of goods, there are no diamonds on your counter, people will go to other jewelry stores to buy, once your customers are lost, it is fatal! ”
"If diamonds are now just showing a small head, then jewelry raw materials like jadeite, nephrite and ruby are even more difficult to handle! The most famous Hetian jade in China, the current output of real Hetian seed jade is only a few kilograms a year, and the so-called Hetian jade that appears on the market now is mostly mountain material or even Russian jade. There is also jadeite, I have told you just now, now the production of jadeite in Myanmar must go to the Myanmar public market, and most of the current jadeite is produced in Xinchangkou, and the jadeite wool of Laokeng is now about to become a giant panda, which is rare and tight. Could it be that Myanmar doesn't want to sell jadeite? No, the military government in Myanmar is also in a rut, the wool of the old field is now almost gone, and even the Myanmar military government itself is short of the wool of the old field, do you say you can still get a stable supply of goods? Therefore, for the time being, it is not that you can get a stable supply of goods if you have money, but that there is no supply at all now, and you are blind if you have money! ”
Tang Feng nodded thoughtfully. At this time, he really understood the current predicament faced by the jewelry industry, but since Tang Feng had such an idea, according to his temperament and character, he really wanted to put this idea into practice.
Others may not be able to get the supply, but that doesn't mean we can't help it, do you really think our star core is vegetarian? (To be continued......)
