Chapter 29 The Savvy Investor

After three glasses of wine, Gao Ting, who is not good at drinking, opened the formal topic tonight with great interest.

"President Chen, classmate Lin, I think I'd better talk about the origin of this flower basket first!" Gao Ting said: "As you all know, I had a proud protégé named Jia Xiaonong before, who has a high artistic talent. God is jealous of talents, Jia Xiaonong, who is talented, but has a heart-wrenching family. When he was nine years old, Jia Xiaonong died of his mother, and at the age of eighteen, it was the critical moment for Jia Xiaonong to let go of his dream of studying, but his father died. A new star of art has fallen, and he has to give up his dream and step into the real society prematurely! ”

With a deep sigh, Gao Ting continued: "When Jia Xiaonong suddenly dropped out of school, I was very hesitant, I guess the children nowadays are unreliable, even if they are talented, what can they do? That day, I received the news that Jia Xiaonong had gone to Yunnan Province to work, and I was very angry, but I held back, and I still persuaded him to return to school, even if there were difficulties, there would be kind people to help. However, Jia Xiaonong is very determined, it is impossible to return to school, and he wants to earn money because he owes a debt. ”

This child deserves to have a high artistic talent, and even on the way to survive, he did not forget art, and this flower basket was found in a small mountain village called Jinding Town in Yunnan Province. He said that he wanted to open a flower basket company to promote this folk art to the north and south of the country. On the one hand, I was shocked by the artistic value of this flower basket, and at the same time, I shook my head and sighed at his boldness. A company is not so easy to start. Therefore, I not only invited President Chen's apprentice, but also invited you, Wei Xinrong! ”

Gao Ting looked at Wei Xinrong and said, "Old classmate, you also heard President Chen's high praise just now, the master is in the people, and this sentence already explains the problem." I'm right, this flower basket is indeed a new project worth developing. On the one hand, you can earn more, and on the other hand, for the sake of the old classmates, you also helped my proud protégé. So ......"

Wei Xinrong waved his hand and said, "Just now President Chen said that art is priceless, and I understand this truth. When I was studying, I loved music, and after graduating, I gave up my job and started my own business, so I made music equipment. Gao Ting, your protégé likes folk art and wants to do the business of flower baskets, which is somewhat similar to when I first stepped into music. Based on my experience along the way, I would like to say a few words. ”

"Please, listen up!" Gao Ting said.

"Business is an elusive science, and it can also be said to be an elusive art, and I think that doing business is an art. If you engage in art, you can create it when your head is hot, but you can't do business. I am a businessman, and I insist: I will not let go of any business opportunity, but I will not take blind investment lightly. Wei Xingrong looked at everyone and said: "At present, it seems that several people who are engaged in art have decided that the flower basket industry is a good investment project, and I firmly believe that therefore, I must seize this business opportunity." But ......"

"But what?" Gao Tingji couldn't wait. To tell the truth, Wei Xingrong is a smart person with a good brain, he is right, he and President Chen, and even Lin Meng, from an artistic point of view, are very optimistic about the artistic value of the flower basket; Wei Xinrong, on the other hand, looks at art from the perspective of business.

"But...... There are still many questions about this matter itself. Wei Xinrong paused, and then said: "That's it, I've already agreed to invest." In fact, this is also what Gao Ting hopes for, and it is also what everyone wants. So, as an investor, I would like to say a few things. First, Jia Xiaonong, the excavator of the flower basket, said that he wanted to open a flower basket company, is it called a flower basket company? That's a bit sloppy, isn't it? Second, there are only three flower baskets that I see now, yes, they are flower baskets, not anything else. Do you want me to invest and make flower baskets? Thirdly, what is the origin, manufacturer, and production situation of the flower basket? Do you need to do some research before making a decision? I can't say, okay, I'm going to invest a million right now, isn't that a joke? ”

Wei Xinrong's words were tantamount to pouring cold water on Gao Ting's heart.

However, for the senior Chen Zhongpei, Wei Xingrong is the model who can do things and get things done, and after he couldn't stop his head, Chen Zhongpei interjected: "Wei Xinrong, it's really terrifying, you are a shrewd businessman, I am honored that my appraisal can determine whether you invest or not." Actually, I know that you have thought a lot about it from a business perspective. So, as you just said, even if you have already invested, I have to ask, do you already have certain measures for the three questions you just raised? ”

"Haha, those who know me, Lao Chen!" Wei Xinrong suddenly laughed and said to Gao Ting, who had a sad face: "Old classmate, do you think I will let go of the project you recommended?" I will thank you! If this investment is really going to be successful, then the four of us are the top level of the new company, and the product discoverer, that is, Jia Xiaonong, is the leader of the four elders after us. ”

"So, you agree?" On Gao Ting's melancholy face, the haze that suddenly appeared disappeared in an instant.

"Hehe, I just mentioned three questions, and I would like to ask a few of you to listen slowly!" Wei Xinrong picked up the cup, motioned for everyone to take a sip, and then said: "First of all, on the issue of the new company, I will name it first, the bamboo basket company will definitely not be successful, it will be called Xinyuan Bamboo Art, after the company was formally established, the full name is Xinyuan Bamboo Art Co., Ltd.; Secondly, we need to personally go to the origin of the flower basket to research, specifically make flower baskets, which is definitely not good, and the flower basket alone will be just a series, subdivided according to the shape, size, use and production of zuò, etc., and then, we will also develop more bamboo products in addition to the bamboo basket. Therefore, we need to see the two major issues of human resources and material resources in person before we can decide on the investment of funds in the first phase, the second phase, and the third phase. ”

Gao Ting nodded again and again, Wei Xingrong is really good, he is a careful and thoughtful businessman, looking for investment suddenly thought of him, and Gao Ting is also knowledgeable. Hearing this, Gao Ting was extremely excited: "Old classmate, I really didn't choose the wrong person, about the flower basket series and the development products outside the flower basket, I will call Jia Xiaonong." As for going to investigate, you can adjust the time, and we'll go over in person - I'll call first! ”

The phone was connected, and Gao Ting said into the phone: "Xiaonong, tell you good news, the bamboo basket you gave me has found an investor." The investor has already thought of the name of the new company, called Xinyuan Bamboo Art Co., Ltd. Of course, as an investor, he wants to know that in addition to flower baskets, can other products of bamboo art be developed in large quantities? Also, we are coming to Jinding Town, Yunnan Province, to see for ourselves the origin and production group of the flower basket! ”
