Chapter 619: Choice
Yan Xin had lunch at Cai's house that day, and he didn't leave in the afternoon, but chatted with Cai Qixiang all afternoon.
Of course, the conversation is about topics related to the development of the company.
On the whole, Cai Qixiang talked more specifically and said some details.
And Yan Xin talked about it more macroscopically.
It talks about the impact of the general economic trend, the international situation, etc., on the real estate industry.
He talked about this, mainly because he didn't know the details.
I just learned some things from Cai Qixiang, and I can use these things to fool a layman like Master Cui, but I can't fool insiders.
His advantage is that he has lived one more life, and he knows the general trend of development in the future, and he can always be right, even for an industry boss like Cai Qixiang.
During this time, Alili was very busy, and she had very little time to chat with him on QQ, and he didn't know so much about the development of real estate companies.
Moreover, Ellili is now busy with a newly started project in Yangcheng, and she is almost fully committed to that project, and she lacks understanding of other projects.
However, Cai Qixiang, as the chairman of the company, is still very clear about the company's development.
He told Yan Xin about the company's current projects and the development plan for the next period of time.
Yan Xin just pointed out a way for the company's future development, telling them that the front is safe and they can make great strides.
He didn't know exactly how it should develop, so he didn't make any more statements.
Those specific plans have to be done by professional people.
This also provides some role for Young Master Cui - his family background allows him to have a certain understanding of the development planning of some cities here, and can give a more specific scope.
In this way, the company can obtain relatively high profits at a relatively low cost.
Now the company's plate has become very big, so big that Yan Xin feels a little frightened.
If there is no backer like Young Master Cui, once there is a problem with the capital chain at this scale, it is enough for them to go bankrupt, and it may even bring prison time.
But then again, if it weren't for such a backer as Young Master Cui, they wouldn't have been able to make such a big plate - at least in terms of bank loans, it would be impossible to get so many loans.
Fengxiang Real Estate Company's house in Fengcheng has almost been sold, and it is not so important whether the remaining point is sold or not.
Therefore, they have now begun to prepare to move the company's headquarters to Yangcheng.
The office over there has been chosen, the decoration has been completed, and we are waiting to choose a suitable date to move over.
There are people here who are dissatisfied with the company's relocation, but they don't have many assets locally, and they can only be dissatisfied.
Young Master Cui also supports the relocation of the company - it is obviously more suitable to move the company's headquarters to Yangcheng, a super first-tier city, than to put it in a town.
With his support, even if others are dissatisfied, there is no way.
Speaking of this, Cai Qixiang is quite happy.
From his expression, Yan Xin knew one thing - Mrs. Cai, who had become a vegetative person, would soon not even be qualified to be a vegetative person.
They didn't discuss it directly, because it wasn't something to be put on the table.
The issue of the relocation of headquarters was discussed more.
Cai Qixiang said that he also bought a villa in Yangcheng and spent him tens of millions, not far from the new company headquarters.
After a few months, you can move in.
also invited Yan Xin to come over as a guest at that time.
Of course, Yan Xin readily agreed.
The villa he lives in now will not be sold, but he will let one of his cousins move in in the future and take care of the house on his behalf.
That cousin had a son who was a nephew he valued more, and he almost passed that nephew over.
In the future, I also hope that nephew can assist his grandson, so I want to give it to others if it is beneficial.
Cai Qixiang also asked Yan Xin about something: "I heard that you also invested in a food delivery company in Yangcheng, saying that the performance is very good, do you think that thing is really good?" ”
Yan Xin smiled: "What, uncle, do you also want to invest in it?" ”
Cai Qixiang said with a smile: "If it is very interesting and you are short of funds now, I can also invest a little money in it." ”
Now Fengxiang Real Estate Company is in debt, and don't think about dividends for at least five years.
But for such a large company, it is okay to find a way to squeeze out a little money.
Personally, he doesn't think that there is a big market for food delivery, but he simply thinks that Yan Xin will not invest in such an industry inexplicably, and he should do so when he sees a certain point.
If it is a promising industry and can accept investment, he would like to invest a little money in it.
It doesn't matter if you lose it.
What if you can get up?
It's just that I do real estate, and my ability to resist risks is still a little worse.
Talking to Yan Xin about the future prospects of real estate, Yan Xin only talks about the 10-year golden period every time.
As for 10 years later, he didn't say whether it was good or bad, but judging from his expression, I'm afraid it won't be much better.
At the beginning, he wanted to make friends with Yan Xin, but he felt that the prospects of the real estate industry were not so optimistic, and if he wanted to transform, it was best to transform into the Internet industry.
And Yan Xin already had a relatively successful website at that time.
He himself was not familiar with that industry, and his idea was to find a guide who was familiar with that industry to enter it, and Yan Xin was the one he chose.
- Yan Xin chose to be good friends with him, and the reason was similar, he wanted to enter the real estate industry, but he didn't have a qualified guide, so he could only endure the nausea and find someone he rejected to be a partner.
The current situation is that Yan Xin has successfully entered the real estate industry with the help of Cai Qixiang's springboard.
And Cai Qixiang has not yet entered the Internet industry through Yan Xin's springboard.
He hoped that the food language company would be an opportunity.
Yan Xin hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth:
"What about money, this new company is really short of money, at the beginning I gave 5 million start-up capital, and now the company has been established for more than two months, most of the 5 million start-up capital has been spent, and I don't estimate that the rest can support a month."
Cai Qixiang was taken aback: "Will you lose money on food delivery?" I've heard people say that the company's takeaway business is quite good, even if it lost money before, but the business is getting better, it should be able to make money, right? ”
"At present, in the process of expanding the market, it is basically a loss of money for a single order, and it is impossible to make money." Yan Xin said with a smile.
Cai Qixiang was silent for a while, and then asked: "What is the future market prospect?" You probably wouldn't spend that much money on a loss-making company, would you? ”
"Of course not, I think if this company can be built, it will still be quite successful in the future," Yan Xin said, "A very important question now is whether we can build this company before our money is burned out and form a monopoly in major cities." ”
"Major cities?" Cai Qixiang was taken aback again, "You have great ambitions!" Do you want to start another company like Anye Home Improvement? ”
He knew that Feng Chen's Anye Home Improvement Company was developing very well, and a lot of business in the new house they built last year went to this decoration company.
Now it has done well in Yangcheng and Pengcheng, and has become a leader in the decoration industry in those two super first-tier cities.
They are not only engaged in interior decoration, but also have upstream industries, doing some production and sales of building materials.
The future development plan will definitely be to develop in major cities across the country.
If this food delivery company can do that, it would be good.
Yan Xin smiled and shook his head: "The house may not be affordable for everyone, but takeout, everyone can afford to order, and three meals a day, the demand is very great, I think if it is done well, the market prospect is much stronger than Anye Home Improvement." ”
Cai Qixiang's eyes lit up.
But Yan Xin said: "However, to form a monopoly position in major cities, too much money is needed, and I don't know if we can achieve this goal." ”
"Do you need that much money?" Cai Qixiang asked.
Yan Xin nodded: "It takes a lot of money, and at the beginning of occupying the market, we must subsidize the money." Otherwise, not many people will choose this kind of consumption. It is necessary to cultivate their consumption habits in order to be able to slowly increase the price of services. It is also necessary to bring greater profits to those cooperative restaurants first, so that they can rely on this platform before they can collect fees from them later. Now the Internet model is almost like this, if you want to make money, you must first burn money and occupy the market. ”
Although Cai Qixiang has never engaged in the Internet, he has also heard some stories of Internet entrepreneurship, and he is indeed burning money in the early stage.
I've been in the business world for so long, and there are some things that I can figure out when I think about it.
So it didn't take long to understand.
If the investment is not large, he is willing to participate in the investment.
However, Yan Xin said that he needed a lot of funds in the future, and he didn't have much confidence in whether he could monopolize the market, which made him hesitate.
Tentatively, he asked, "How much do you think you need to invest?" ”
Yan Xin stretched out a finger.
Cai Qixiang thought to himself: "100 million? That's not much. ”
But I heard Yan Xin say: "Ten billion - what I said is that at least there must be this level." ”
This number startled Cai Qixiang, and he made a decision right away - not to vote!
This Internet company is too scary!
But he was a little curious: "Can you raise so much money?" ”
He knew that Yan Xin was very rich now, but he also knew that he was definitely not rich to this extent.
Some assets are just expected assets and don't actually have a lot of wealth.
There's even less money to be able to take out.
Don't say 100 billion, even if it's 100 million, if you don't take a bank loan, you may not be able to get it.
"Make money slowly," Yan Xin said with a smile, "and then I hope that the performance can be better, attract big financiers to come and invest, and burn other people's money." ”
Outside investment is definitely still needed, just burn your own money, and build such a business, it is really unaffordable.
Moreover, as far as he and Xiao Shiyu are concerned, it is a bit of a fool's dream to completely own a company with a monopoly position in such an industry.
At that time, there will still be capital from the background to support them, and they will be able to grasp the dominant power.
Cai Qixiang really wants to invest, of course, he will not turn it away, but he does not need such investment much - because Cai Qixiang's capital also belongs to grassroots capital, which does not help his business development much.
He also told Cai Qixiang about the company's current operation mode, which also made Cai Qixiang understand why it has such good performance and why it loses money.
In that kind of model, the cost is so big, the fee is so low, it is no wonder that you don't lose money.
He completely dismissed the idea of follow-up, and asked:
"Aren't you afraid of burning money until no one takes over in the back, you can't do it yourself, and you lose everything?"
This requires a lot of money to be burned, and the speed of burning money is very fast, if there is no money owner to continue to burn, it will really become a big problem.
Yan Xin said with a smile: "No one takes over, which means that the potential of this industry has not been discovered by capital, but it is also a good thing, it can allow me to develop slowly, and the speed of burning money does not need to be so fast, without the intervention of external capital, I believe that I can slowly occupy this market by myself." What I'm worried about now is that the potential of this industry is discovered too early by capital, and then they jump in and compete with me when I can't get on my feet. Then I can only burn money with them, in this case, I will definitely not be able to rely on my own ability, and I must find big capital to help. ”
Cai Qixiang probably understood his train of thought.
He asked again: "Then can you find Cui Zhiren and let him join in?" ”
Yan Xin shook his head: "There's no need, he has already boarded our ship, he is our backer, and joining in will not bring me additional benefits." And this guy doesn't have much money in his hand to burn it, and it's not cost-effective. Even if I want to find a collaborator, I have to find a new backer, and I have to be able to help me get funds, so it's better. ”
Young Master Cui is enough as a backer, but as a capital, it is a serious insufficiency.
It's nice that he can help get a bank loan, but there's a limit there.
Fengxiang Real Estate Company also needs him to help with loans.
If you also get a loan to Shiyu Company, Fengxiang Real Estate Company will be able to get fewer loans.
For Yan Xin, this is a serious waste of resources.
If you want to find it, you have to find a new owner and backer.
A pair of hands needs to find a pair of gloves that suit you, and as gloves, you also want to find a pair of hands that suit you.
It's also a matter of two-way choice.
Of course, Yan Xin hopes to choose a partner who can maximize his interests.
Whether it is Cai Qixiang or Cui Zhiren, it is not in his consideration.
