Beijing, Yinfeng Building.
Brother Dong, who was once wandering in the streets of Zhongguancun to sell discs, finally had his first store in his life.
In the past two years, Dong Ge only rented a counter covering an area of ​​3.5 square meters. But with this counter, he earned the first 10 million yuan. Around 1999, the profits of computer hardware fell seriously. Other shop owners were looking for other high-profit computer equipment, but Dong Ge chose to sell CD burners that had completely "broken".
Why do you say "yellow"?
Because in 1998, the net profit was 1,000 yuan. So everyone rushed to sell the burners. After a year, the net profit of each burner was only 10 yuan.
Dong Ge not only chose to sell a recorder with a meager profit, but also included a multimedia software, free 15-day after-sales service, and can repair and return the goods at any time (the premise of requiring a return is to buy fake goods). In this way, the recorder with a net profit of only 10 yuan, Dong Ge made sales of 60 million yuan this year, but he didn't make much money, and the gross profit was only 3 million yuan.
Brother Dong had been a distributor for a while, but after repeated thinking, he finally decided to become a retailer and opened his first store in Yinfeng Building.
The clerk only hired two, and Brother Dong lived in the store himself, and he could only sleep for an average of four or five hours a day.
Early in the morning, the clerk came to work.
Brother Dongyao explained the task, and then went out to buy breakfast.
When we returned to the store, two clerks were bragging to customers because the customer saw today's newspaper in the store.
"The whole mainland of China shouldn't be able to do business than Song Weiyang, right?" The customer said astonished, holding the newspaper, "Making big money is not a skill. Those who have only heard of him for one or two classes have become monuments."
A clerk said: "Isn't that? There are also secrets to doing business. Experts can tell you a lot of detours. Boss, look at this projector, Sony's, brand-name goods, and the quality must be excellent."
"It's not fake, right?" asked the customer.
The clerk said: "As long as you find it is fake, no matter how long it will last, we guarantee an unconditional return."
The customer nodded and said, "Well, okay, you have to write me a guarantee letter, which is a guarantee of unconditional returns. By the way, where did we just talk about?"
The clerk said, "Song Weiyang is a business expert, and the students he taught must be very good."
"Yes, yes," the customer was holding a newspaper in his hand and read a few lines of news, "Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk, look here. There are several billionaires who attended the party, and one with assets of more than 1 billion yuan. When he was listening to Song Weiyang's lecture, he was working in a Hong Kong-funded factory. After listening to the class, he immediately quit his job alone. In a few years, he had a net worth of 1 billion! You said it would be great if I was in Shenzhen City. I paid 500 yuan to listen to a class, maybe I would be the boss now."
"That's sure, it's all luck," the clerk took out the projector for display. "Boss, do you want to try it? I'll teach you in the store."
The customer finally stopped reading newspapers and followed the clerk to learn how to install and use the projector.
Brother Dong suddenly received a call and immediately said to another clerk: "Xiao Zhang, the whole goods have arrived. You go out and collect them."
Xiao Zhang's name is Zhang Qi, an employee of JD.com No. 1. At this time, his monthly salary was 600 yuan. After more than ten years, he became a tyrant. He got the boss' order and set off immediately. After half an hour, he ran back in a panic: "Boss, our goods were intercepted. More than a dozen people on the other side were holding sticks and almost beat me up!"
Brother Dong was a little depressed and comforted: "It's good that you're fine, I'll contact the distributor."
The distributor ships the freight to Zhongguancun, and supplies many retail stores at one time. Each store has to send people to pick up the goods themselves, and will not directly deliver them to a single store. Coincidentally, the several multimedia equipment that Brother Dong ordered this time are all very intimate and hot goods, and they were intercepted as soon as he moved out of the delivery truck.
It's not robbery, but the interception of goods, and those guys also have to pay the distributors.
At this time, Zhongguancun was very chaotic, and there were endless phenomena of intercepting goods and customers. Those who were serious about business could only admit that they were unlucky.
After contacting the distributor again to ship the goods, the customer in the store also left with the projector. Brother Dong got up and asked, "What were you talking about just now?"
"Song Weiyang's teacher-student gathering, boss, don't you know?" Zhang Qi asked back.
"I don't know very well." Brother Dong shook his head repeatedly.
As a businessman selling computer-related equipment, Dong Ge's store does not have broadband installations. He has to use a telephone line to dial when he needs to access the Internet, and he has no time to access the Internet when he is busy.
Another clerk held the newspaper and said, "Boss, look, Song Weiyang is so awesome!"
Brother Dong finished reading the report seriously, and he was both envious and uncomfortable. He had been working hard for several years and had a net worth of tens of millions, thinking that he was quite successful, but compared with Song Weiyang's students, it was really not enough to read it. There were only a few billionaires tutored by others.
The clerk Zhang Qi said: "The newspaper also said that Song Weiyang wants to run a Taurus Business School, and he personally teaches seven classes every semester. Boss, why don't you sign up too, and you will definitely be very good after you further study. Then we will follow you to do big things."
"Forget it, the annual tuition fee is 300,000 yuan, which is a bit too expensive." Brother Dong couldn't bear to spend money.
Another clerk pointed and said, "A student has a tuition fee of 300,000 yuan a year. If he recruits 100 students, wouldn't the tuition fee be charged 30 million yuan every year? This is too profitable!"
Such arguments have occurred in every corner of China and have even been reproduced by Hong Kong City media.
Although there were similar reports before, people were skeptical. Now all the rich "students" have met the numbers, and the news is 100% accurate, which shocked countless people. And it has a mysterious halo for Song Weiyang to cover all over her body. People have speculated that Song Weiyang taught some secrets during her lectures that can create super rich people in large quantities.
Since there are only more than 40 registrations for "Mahjongpu Phase I Students" and the education department has not passed the approval for the time being (it takes time to go through the process), Taurus Business School cannot openly recruit students. So the important task of absorbing students fell on Hurun. He personally called the rich people he knew or did not know, with the goal of completing 100 enrollment quotas.
There is no commission for admission, even if he recruits 1,000 students, Hurun cannot get a penny. But he still enjoys doing it. This guy is ready to go to the whole process as a business school collaborator. It doesn't matter whether he can learn things. The important thing is to make friends with every rich man.
"Hello, Mr. Lin, I'm Hurun... Yes, it's Hurun on the Rich List... Oh, your private phone number? I'll ask for a friend... Wait a minute, don't hang it up, please give me three minutes... Have you heard of Taurus Business School? Haven't you heard of? Then you can buy a newspaper or magazine later, and large-scale journals of industrial, commercial and financial fields, and there are related reports from Taurus Business School. This time, I invited you to sign up for Taurus Business School as a special consultant of Mr. Song Weiyang. The first session only recruits 100 people, and the staff will be completed. Taurus Business School is... Oh, you have to hold a meeting. Okay, then I won't bother you. I hope you can buy a magazine and learn about the situation first."
Hu Run kept calling people, and he could reach two or three a day, many of whom had been contacted again after reading the newspaper.
In fact, when Taurus Business School was open to recruit students, there were hundreds of small bosses who came to register. These small bosses, with millions to tens of millions, either came to Song Weiyang's secret book or came to cling to big bosses. They lacked their own knowledge and ability, and with Taurus Business School's policy of ease of entry and strict exit, most of them could not get a diploma, and they could only be considered as a substitute.
Recruiting these people will only reduce the style of Taurus Business School and make the real rich unhappy. Hurun needs to recruit more capable and influential students.
Although the Yangtze Business School in another time and space is ridiculed by various jokes, the learning tasks are still very heavy. After class, there are various homework, a lot of recommended books, and the requirements for graduation thesis are higher than those of the Master of Business Administration in most colleges. Those who can graduate successfully from the Yangtze Business School are definitely elites, and it is the personal behavior of students who make trouble in private.
Song Weiyang’s Taurus Business School cannot be compared academically by Li Chaoren’s Changjiang Business School, right?
Just as Hurun was soliciting customers everywhere... Well, when he was recruiting students, Song Weiyang was once again famous in Xiangjiang. Many media in Hong Kong City reprinted the gathering, and the titles were exaggerated, comparing "Ma's Huangpu Phase I" to a "rich production line". There were also newspapers who compiled various stories, saying that a certain businessman was wandering on the streets back then. After borrowing 500 yuan to listen to a class in Song Weiyang, he became a millionaire in half a year and a millionaire in one year. Which company is on the verge of bankruptcy? The boss spent 500 yuan to listen to the class and asked Song Weiyang a few questions in the class. When he went back, he immediately got out of the predicament.
Hong Kong City Business Daily directly wrote: "If Konosuke Matsushita is the 'God of Management' and Buffett is the 'God of Investment', then Song Weiyang is the 'God of Entrepreneurship'. In terms of entrepreneurship, Song Weiyang has amazing talent and can pass on this talent to others. From the statistics of students from the first phase of Ma's Huangpu, the entrepreneur's chance of becoming a millionaire is close to 10%, the chance of becoming a millionaire is close to 3%, and the chance of becoming a billionaire is close to 1%.
It’s just blowing. The more outrageous the blowing, the higher the sales volume of newspapers.
Song Weiyang's reputation as the "God of Entrepreneurship" spread throughout Xiangjiang, and Xifeng's stock price rose against the market.
However, when photos of Tesla's electric sports car were reported, it attracted collective ridicule from the automotive industry. Those who know everything know how complex the software and hardware requirements are for building a sports car. Tesla must have imported a bunch of parts and assembled by itself. Moreover, it is fully hand-assembled and does not even have a production line. This thing can only be regarded as a large toy.
But Mr. Lu of Wanxiang Group personally visited Geely Automobile Company and went to see Tesla electric sports cars.
Mr. Lu's company specializes in the production of auto parts, connected to many foreign brands such as GM and Ford, and chose Wanxiang Group as supplier. His dream is to build cars by himself one day and hang car landscape paintings on the walls all year round. When he heard reporters say that Li Suqi wanted to build cars, Mr. Lu said: "One of the time to build cars, we need government approval and tens of billions of dollars to build cars, Wanxiang is not ready yet."
Li Suqiu had only 100 million yuan at that time, but he only obtained the license this year, but he forced Geely Auto to build it.
Not to mention, the rapid price reduction of cars in the late 1990s was entirely due to Geely Automobile’s attempt to disrupt the situation. At that time, the price of cars in China was generally above 100,000 yuan, and Xiali was very popular for only 90,000 yuan per car. After Geely was launched, it was priced directly at 58,000 yuan.
In less than three years, Xiali was forced to lower the price to 31,800 yuan per vehicle, while Geely sedan was reduced to 29,900 yuan. Low-end models of other brands could only be significantly reduced.
The people who want to buy a car are very happy.
"Congratulations, Geely has finally obtained the production license." Mr. Lu smiled and shook hands with Li Suqi.
Li Suqiu said: "I also want to thank Mr. Lu. Several of Geely's accessories are supplied by Wanxiang Group. Without Mr. Lu, these accessories can only be imported and the production costs cannot be reduced."
"I heard you are making sports cars?" Mr. Lu asked curiously.
Li Suqi laughed: "That was Boss Song's idea. I'll play with him, and it's also a response to the call of the country's new energy vehicles."
Mr. Lu asked: "Is sports car energy produced?"
Li Suqiu said: "It is impossible to achieve mass production within five years, and it is difficult to achieve profitability within ten years. We plan to sharpen our swords and learn hard skills, and then compete with foreign sports cars in ten years."
Li Sufu hid the matter of electric bicycles. He started out by making motorcycles and knew how amazing the battery car market was. Moreover, electric bicycles are not as complicated as electric cars, and the motors can be designed by engineers he hired. If it weren't for BYD's batteries as support, it would be difficult to have conflicts with Song Weiyang, otherwise Li Sufu would have made an electric bicycle alone.
Mr. Lu smiled and said, "I have met that boss Song once, and he is indeed a young man with ideas. This APEC summit was held in Shenghai. I want to have a good exchange with him. Maybe there is still somewhere to cooperate."
This year's APEC summit is unprecedentedly large, and Bill Gates, the world's richest man, will also come. Unlike last year, when there were only a few bosses from the Fortune 500 in Brunei, the top rich people can't even see them.
By the way, the official also organized a peak dialogue between young entrepreneurs from China and the United States.
The richest man in the United States, Bill Gates, and the richest man in China, Song Weiyang, the two communicated one by one. The bosses of the Internet and related industries were on the whole, and they were able to ask questions on the spot after obtaining permission. CCTV will record the exchange process and broadcast it. The three major portals of Sina, Sohu and NetEase will delay the live broadcast of online texts for 10 minutes.
