Cheng Herong was previously split up and annexed by Jinggao due to Ronghe Group, and received US$500 million plus a small amount of Uber shares. This money is suitable for investment in the two online and offline supermarkets currently being prepared.
These two supermarkets are called Yuanfang Supermarket and Ronghe Supermarket.
After all, Yuanfang Logistics, which holds the majority of Jing's shares, has no intention of controlling two supermarkets. Of course, he still needs to maintain influence. This ratio is usually between 15% and 30%. It depends on the operation and industry.
On the morning of the last working day before the National Day holiday, Cheng Herong called his friend Xi Wenbin and his son Cheng Yanxi to the newly rented office for a small meeting.
Preparing a supermarket does not take only one or two weeks to complete all the preparations. His work in Yuanfang Logistics is not very busy. During this time, he has been doing preparatory work in Beijing.
Xi Wenbin is still the same, but his expression and complexion are obviously much better than before. He has received Jing Gao's words relayed by his daughter Xi Siyan:
It is impossible for Xia Shang Real Estate to finish the domestic real estate industry alone. What’s more, I also intend for Xia Shang Real Estate to go abroad and compete in the global infrastructure market. The infrastructure construction in Europe is actually very profitable. Just enter
The threshold is relatively high and requires various qualification certifications. In any case, the real estate industry will not disappear, it is just a matter of cyclical operation. The opportunities for Jincheng Real Estate will be in the mergers and acquisitions after the onset of the real estate winter.
This made him quite excited.
Cheng Herong was smoking a cigarette and joking with his old man, "Why, Lao Xi, have you acquired a house of beautiful concubines recently? Your old face is about to burst into laughter!"
"Go away! In what age did you still have a beautiful concubine? You old antique!" Xi Wenbin laughed and scolded without politeness.
Several of their old friends are all extremely wealthy and considered to be well-off people in society. They are all in their fifties now, and each of them knows something about women. At their age, they happened to have come from the turbulent years of reform.
At that time, it was not unusual for a big boss in the business world to bring his mistress to a party. Nowadays, the trend has become more restrained, after all, it is developed, but private gatherings of friends are actually informal.
Cheng Yanxi pretended not to have heard. He was now thirty-three years old. If he heard about his father's romantic affairs, he could only pretend not to have heard, otherwise he would go and tell his mother. What he was thinking now was: the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked.
Perhaps because Mr. Jing's lecherous style suits the tastes of his father and Uncle Xi, the two groups of talents get along well with each other!
Xi Wenbin will not talk to Lao Cheng about things that have not yet happened. The real estate winter will still be at least more than a year away. Now he only sees the wind. He coughed and said: "I visited Mr. Ren in the hospital. Mr. Ren
My health is very poor and I can basically only rest in bed. He agreed to let us build this online supermarket and gave Ren Lie a hand."
Cheng Herong sat comfortably on the sofa in the office and asked doubtfully: "You didn't point out Mr. Jing's role in it?"
Xi Wenbin took a puff of cigarette and said: "Of course I pointed it out. Mr. Ren is not a fool, how could he not guess such a big thing? Mr. Ren said that Mr. Jing always likes to use these little tricks to divide his eldest son and his father.
Second son, now that the Ren family has reached this point, so be it! His son is his son after all!"
Cheng Herong couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, Mr. Ren still has the same temperament that refuses to admit defeat. I hope Ren Lie won't be stupid in the future!
Well, this is exactly what success depends on character, and failure depends on character! There was no such stubbornness back then, and there was no birth of the giant Galaxy Group. In the past two years, if there was no such stubbornness, it would not have frequently offended the rising well.
In total, the Galaxy Group has no choice but to fall away!"
Cheng Yanxi seemed to be a little resentful towards Mr. Ren when he heard what his father said.
Xi Wenbin smiled silently, lit the cigarette ashes, and said, "Let's talk about the supermarket."
Based on Yuanfang Logistics' warehousing and transportation system, the newly established Yuanfang Supermarket's equity shareholding dropped to 42% from Phoenix Fund, while Fangyuan Group's shareholding ratio increased from 5% to 6%. Chen Ziyuan received financial support from Jinggao
Finally, the company has been doing well recently, and there is still room for more shares in the supermarket.
Cheng Herong's Rongxi Company holds 50%, and management and employees are expected to hold 2% of the shares. In order to hold an additional 15% of the shares, Cheng Herong will spend US$300 million in cash to start the Yuanfang Supermarket.
Ronghe Supermarket, which focuses on the Internet, is dominated by Yuanfang Supermarket, which holds 60% of the shares. Xi Wenbin and Weng Yancai each invested US$30 million privately, each holding 10% of the shares. Ren Lie's Xiquan Investment invested US$60 million.
20% of the shares.
This US$120 million in funds will be used to launch Ronghe Supermarket, including recruitment, building the program structure of the online supermarket, leasing the computing power of cloud services to support the supermarket's distribution system, and early publicity expenses.

In the private courtyard of Liulichang, a world-famous gathering place for antiques, I sat in the middle of the well, listening to the appreciation (explanation) of calligraphy and painting by four "scribes" from the literary and art circle that Chu Maotong had found: a pair of calligraphy by Wen Zhengming,
A picture of Tang Bohu's lady.
One is a teacher from the Ming and Qing Research Institute of the Academy of Social Sciences (Ji Shiyuan), one is a craftsman specializing in the antique repair business (Cui Haocheng), one is a shopkeeper (Wu Qiuhua) who has a family background and is engaged in the antique business, and the other is
A well-known collector and calligraphy enthusiast (Yu Jiamo).
With Jing Gao's current status and level, even though he is a newcomer in the antique industry, Chu Maotong cannot lead all cats and dogs to him. For example, Wu Qiuhua also has the title of an expert in the Forbidden City.
Wu Qiuhua pointed to the calligraphy copybook on the desk and introduced to Jing Gao: "Wen Zhengming's calligraphy achievements were almost unparalleled in his era. There is circumstantial evidence for this.
In poetry, Wen Zhengming, together with Zhu Yunming, Tang Yin, and Xu Zhenqing, are collectively known as the Four Wuzhong Schools, which are the Four Great Talents in the South of the Yangtze River in novels and movies. In terms of painting, Wen Zhengming, together with Shen Zhou, Tang Yin, and Qiu Ying, are collectively known as the Four Wumen Schools.
But there is no general title for calligraphy. He is especially good at small regular script. There is a saying that "small regular script is famous all over the world". This piece of "Return and Lai Ci" is 13.7cm long and 16.1cm wide. The inscription is: September 11, 1911
On the same day, Hengtang Zhouzhongshu. Zhengming. He was eighty and two years old.
Xinhai is the 30th year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty, 1551 AD.
This is a facsimile. The original is collected in the Palace Museum. The characters in the whole text are only slightly larger than a millet, and they stretch freely, with the potential of being sparse and able to move around, but not airtight. The brushwork is perfect, strong and elegant, showing superb calligraphy skills.
"
Jing Gao stood on the side of the case and admired it, "It's really pleasing to the eye! How much does Mr. Wu value this copy?"
Wu Qiuhua is an old man in his fifties. He has a long beard and is wearing a commoner. He twisted his beard and said with a smile: "Originally, it is naturally very valuable for collection. When it comes to copying, it mainly depends on the age and writing skills. I don't think so.
Good at it. I estimate it’s about five hundred thousand!”
"Senior Wu, you are being humble." The other three joked.
Jing Gao finally paid several hundred thousand to buy these two calligraphy and paintings, and asked Chu Maotong to send them to his home. He took Chen Yujie to a private restaurant in the mountains of the western suburbs for dinner. Deng Ran and Ye
Akira and the two have arrived.
"Jing Gao, aren't you worried that these people are trying to deceive you? No matter how you look at it, it feels a bit like fraud." On the way there, Chen Yujie asked curiously.
