Chapter 043: Afur Rooted in China?
Registering a company in the United States is quite simple, Dirk received money from his own boss, with a nervous heart began to recruit people in this area, not only leather, but also silver craftsmen, while gathering manpower while began to buy materials to prepare for the production of horse harness, as for the company's production workshop directly used here the farm tool warehouse.
Lu Xiancheng moved his mouth, Dirk broke his leg here, and the old man began another entrepreneurial journey in his life. However, this time, the old man was relieved that as long as he was in charge of design and production, Lu Xiancheng was responsible for sales and everything, which was equivalent to a big sigh of relief for Dirk.
As for sales, Lu Xiancheng didn't have too much thought about it for a while, and he didn't even care about how much saddle he sold in the first year or two, anyway, he had already planned it in his heart, and waited for the racecourse to be built and he would get a store in the commercial area over there.
The decoration should be of the grade, and there should be a force that makes ordinary people push open the door and are reluctant to enter, and first use the 'international brand' to fool the general public, as for Du Guohao, Lu Xiancheng didn't think about fooling at all, with their news, they could be fooled. However, as long as the quality of the products can be guaranteed, Lu Xiancheng is ready to 'strongly promote' among these people.
The manager of the saddle brand, Lu Xiancheng now has a candidate in his heart.
After staying in the ranch for a total of three days of leisure, Lu Xiancheng had to return to Los Angeles, of course, not to accompany Secretary Chen and Township Chief Xia to visit Hollywood, but to do a small interview with Lu Xiancheng on the side of the times.
The second day back at the hotel, in the small reception hall of the hotel. Clint from 'Insight into ICQ'? Lu accepted an exclusive interview with the times, and the whole visit went smoothly, and the guests and hosts said goodbye in about half an hour.
After the visit, Lu Xiancheng sent the gang to the elevator entrance of the conference hall
"Done visiting?" I don't know where Zhang Qiang came from, and said to Lu Xiancheng.
Taken aback by Zhang Qiang, Lu Xiancheng turned around and asked, "When did you come out?" ”。
"We just had halftime here," Zhang Qiang pointed behind him. Then he raised the cigarette in his hand at him.
Lu Xiancheng said: "Why have we been talking about it for so long, it's been a few days, and a group of more than a dozen people haven't talked about it?" ”。
Lu Xiancheng really thinks it's a fuck up for these people, it's been four or five days, and he hasn't even talked about how much money each family has contributed, and he really doesn't know what to say about this efficiency for a while.
Zhang Qiang said with a smile: "How can it be so easy, everyone has just made a little progress in a few days, and now the ratio of investment is about six to four, six on our side and four on their side."
"Isn't that the end of the conversation?" When Lu Xiancheng heard this, it was all six to four, and he hadn't finished talking yet?
"There is also an industry," Zhang Qiang said with a smile: "Now everyone's goal is not only Internet companies, but also some traditional enterprises." Of course, they are not interested in investing in state-owned assets, and they can't invest if they are interested, but if they want to borrow our tiger skin to enter private capital, they are all thinking about eating ......meat anyway."
After whispering to Lu Xiancheng for a while, Zhang Qiang asked Lu Xiancheng again: "How are you here, is the interview going well?" ”
Lu Xiancheng smiled when he heard this: "What's wrong is those questions, how to answer me, I already have a score here, but when it comes to bragging, I don't think it's easy to be beautiful now."
"How?" Zhang Qiang smiled and pushed Lu Xiancheng. The two of them turned around and returned to the small conference room where they had just met.
The small conference room is about 100 meters square, with a large carpet in the middle. Several sets of sofas were placed on them, and the two of them walked to the nearest two and sat down.
"My worth has risen again in the mouths of these people, and it has risen to $1.8 billion for no reason" Lu Xiancheng said with a smile: "And you can't find any problems, people have already written two words of estimate, and the word game is a thief."
I don't know for what purpose the times have raised their original value a lot. But it's normal for Lu Xiancheng to think about it. Now it's the eyeball economy.
Zhang Qiang said: "You can't blame others, now you see ICQ fire."
Nowadays, ICQ offers some value-added services, although the fee in the United States is very small, generally one or two dollars a month, of course, if someone wants to use it for free, there is no problem. There is no charge for basic functions at all, what VIP is just an identity, more to enjoy custom avatars, larger mailboxes and the like.
Originally, Lu Xiancheng only thought about reducing the burden, but who knew that Lao Lu forgot that developed countries have a tradition of paying fees to enjoy services, and they don't pay much in a month, and many people don't take it seriously. Since its launch, ICQ's revenue in developed countries has risen steadily, and although it is not yet profitable, this 'money scene' is already a remarkable achievement compared to the current Internet companies.
"Everyone is waiting for the listing to make money"
Lu Xiancheng smiled when he heard this: "It seems that no one is not!" ”。
"How many shares are you going to keep on hand when you wait to go public?" Zhang Qiang asked Lu Xiancheng.
"Leave seven or eight, if you have more, it won't be too interesting," Lu Xiancheng said.
Zhang Qiang listened and said: "Why don't you stay a little more, a few of us are waiting for appreciation."
"It doesn't mean much more, but I'm ready to put it slowly, if the stock price is lower than I expected, I have a lot of money in my hands, and I will consider taking back some more," Lu Xiancheng said.
"Call me when you receive it" Zhang Qiang heard Lu Xiancheng say this, immediately said, thought for a while and said: "Don't just do this, tell me if you have any ideas to make money, now as long as you vote, I will participate in a share."
"Some things don't make money!" Lu Xiancheng spread his hands and said helplessly, in addition to some large companies in his memory, now Lu Xiancheng has some investments through his own investment managers, some of these companies are good, some are losing, so that Lu Xiancheng generally has some profits and some losses. It's just a big profit and a small loss, if you talk about the proportion of investment, it is estimated that at least forty percent of Lu Xiancheng will not make money.
"I don't care about this, anyway, there is a way to make money, and if I think of my brother, it will be" Zhang Qiang said without mind, now in his opinion, as long as he follows Lu Xiancheng, he can't be wrong, Lu Xiancheng will vote. Xiaotou, he also followed Xiaotou.
In fact, not only Zhang Qiang, but none of the people who have tasted the sweetness with Lu Xiancheng do not think like this, if it weren't for those who are not interested in buying pastures in Gushan, why would they spend money in Gushan.
Thinking of the words on this goods, Lu Xiancheng said again: "If you talk for a long time, I will go back to China first, and it will be boring to stay here."
Zhang Qiang said: "You can take the two of them to have a good time, don't go to Los Angeles here They sleep in the hotel as soon as they recall, and when they go back, even if they show off to others, they can only show how the five-star hotel is arrogant."
Speaking of this, he began to count Lu Xiancheng again: "You are too, and it is not fun to come to Los Angeles after a while." Aren't you bored when you either think about hiding from the ranch or hiding in your hotel room all day long, like a little old man? If there's a girl in the room, I won't say anything, and I don't have you to sleep in the room."
"I'm not interested in visiting the city! Skyscrapers, the streets are full of people, what is there to visit" Lu Xiancheng explained slightly.
Where is Lu Xiancheng interested in taking Chen Yougen and Xia Dong to visit Los Angeles, although Lu Xiancheng has never been to Los Angeles in his life, he has only been to Los Angeles three times. The first two were only two or three days, and they were either talking about business or busy with ranching. I haven't played it either, and I haven't even seen the Avenue of Fame.
But for Los Angeles, Lu Xiancheng is still quite familiar. The main memories are from my previous life, it can be said that I have been here countless times, almost as long as I come to the United States with family and friends, the first place to settle is Los Angeles. Therefore, after Lu Xiancheng arrived in Los Angeles, he couldn't raise any energy to visit this city of angels.
"Let's hire a guide for them, I'm not interested in taking them around, and I'll find two international students on the Internet to take them around" Lu Xiancheng turned his mind and quickly thought of a good way to solve the problem.
Hearing Lu Xiancheng say this, Zhang Qiang looked at the watch in his hand: "Okay." I'm going into the conference room! ”。
After saying that, he got up from the couch and walked towards the door.
Lu Xiancheng naturally stood up and walked towards the door while buttoning his suit.
Zhang Qiang went to the meeting, Lu Xiancheng was naturally about to go back to the room, walked a few meters and saw a waiter standing next to the corridor, she took herself to the conference room at the beginning.
"Thank you, the conference room has been used," Lu Xiancheng said politely to others.
"Hello Mr. Lu, there is a young lady waiting for you over there" Who knew that the waiter smiled and said to himself.
There's a young lady waiting for you? Lu Xiancheng was a little puzzled, he didn't know any young lady or anything like that in LA, of course, this young lady was not derogatory but a normal title.
"Please come with me," the waiter stretched out his hand after speaking, signaling Lu Xiancheng to ask first.
Out of curiosity, Lu Xiancheng followed the waiter along the aisle to the hotel's small bar, and as soon as he entered the bar, Lu Xiancheng saw Afur sitting in his seat with a smile and beckoning to him.
"Thank you!" Lu Xiancheng took out the tip from his pocket and handed it to the waiter, then closed his wallet and walked towards Afur's table.
"What's the matter with me?" Lu Xiancheng asked as soon as he sat down and opened his mouth.
Avr jokingly said: "Don't you Chinese talk about something else before talking about things, why are you so direct?"
"I don't think you're coming to play with me, are you? My game is so bad! Lu Xiancheng asked for a glass of rum from the waiter who came over, and then said to Afur.
After the previous contact, Lu Xiancheng roughly understood some of Avor's character, which belonged to the kind of unprofitable and unprofitable, since she came to find herself, there must be something wrong.
Really!
When Afur took it, he opened his mouth and said, "Then I'll be more direct, I want to participate in your horse races!" ”。
Hearing this, Lu Xiancheng's brain had already begun to shut down, and countless thoughts turned in his mind, and he didn't think of why this woman wanted to participate in the horse race on her side, and now she hasn't even spread out the stall, I don't know how the race is, this woman is going to participate?
"Why?" Lu Xiancheng couldn't figure it out and opened his mouth to ask.
"I've heard a man say that the most important thing to do business with your Chinese is to melt into your circle and understand your affairs with your mind......" Afur said, pointing to his brain.
"Then do you understand" Lu Xiancheng is not very optimistic about this person.
"I will not only participate in your horse races, but I will also live with you, and I want to experience for myself what your Chinese life is like," Afur said.
"Will you have time?" Lu Xiancheng said, Lu Xiancheng has now got the news, this woman is still a little powerful in her family, not the kind of generation that eats and waits for death, belongs to the very self-motivated kind.
Afur smiled and shrugged his shoulders slightly: "I think China has a better chance!" I'm more optimistic about the Chinese market than I am here."
"It seems that you want to be an old friend of the Chinese people," Lu Xiancheng said with a smile, jokingly: "Although I am not qualified to represent the people of the whole country, I only represent myself, and I give a warm welcome to Miss Avr, your heart rooted in China."
After speaking, Lu Xiancheng applauded loudly.
"Thank you! Thank you! Who knew that Afur also climbed onto the pole, and he didn't hear the banter in Lu Xiancheng's words at all.
Looking at her appearance, Lu Xiancheng knew that this girl wanted to become a Chinese expert, and it was estimated that there was still a long way to go! (To be continued.) )
