Chapter 690 Want to acquire remote? (4,000 words!)
In everyone's heart there is a future benchmark idol.
Lu Yuan's father Lu Shuren also has it.
And his idol is Xu Hong, the self-made catering tycoon and the founder of the nationally famous "Yacheng" hotel chain.
There is also a wrapped copy of "The Biography of Xu Hong" in Lu Shuren's house. Perhaps under the influence of this book, Lu Yuan inexplicably had the idea of opening a small restaurant to live a life deep in his heart when he was a child.
The content in "The Biography of Xu Hong" is very exciting.
It tells the story of how a poor boy named Xu Hong, driven by the times, worked hard and struggled through crises and difficulties one after another, finally saw the light of day and created a catering empire.
Every time Lu Shuren reads it, he feels a sense of longing deep in his heart.
but……
it is a pity.
Lu Shuren did not dare to use his savings to open a restaurant.
In the past, the old Lu family was really too poor, and they were dragging the family's oil bottle. Most of the money they earned in a month was paid back to relatives and friends. In addition, Lu Yuan went to school, so his monthly life was extremely difficult.
Under such circumstances, Lu Shuren really didn't have the guts to take a gamble.
After all, there are risks in doing business!
He could only keep suppressing this thought, as if it was stained with dust, and gradually forgot it.
Later, when Lu Yuan suddenly got angry and told Lu Shuren that he hoped to open a restaurant so that he could have a way out if he couldn't make it in the entertainment company, Lu Shuren's heart suddenly became active.
Then he opened a restaurant and used many business strategies to gradually expand the restaurant!
only……
After he opened a restaurant, Lu Shuren discovered that his son's entertainment company not only did not close down, but became more and more prosperous...
Then, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have been deceived by his son.
like……
My son can’t get over it yet?
In short, Lu Shuren has been running his catering business in the past few years. Although the catering business does not suddenly become popular like the entertainment industry, but at least Lu Shuren is still working steadily and looking forward to the future.
Um……
Anyway!
In Lu Shuren's mind, the book "The Biography of Xu Hong" was of great help to him.
At the same time, he very much agreed with some of the business concepts in "The Story of Xu Hong". As his catering business got better and better, Lu Shuren felt that he wanted to meet Xu Hong more and more. After meeting, he hoped to talk about some things in the future.
Even this year, he went to listen to Xu Hong's lectures whenever he was free, but unfortunately, Xu Hong always left in a hurry after finishing his lectures, never stopping, let alone meeting Lu Shuren alone...
So Lu Shuren was very sorry.
A few days ago, when he knew from the grapevine that Xu Hong seemed to be very interested in Joaquin Entertainment, he immediately followed him, hoping to meet Xu Hong and get an autograph.
"Uncle Lu... let's do this. You come in with me and I will arrange a seat for you next to Xu Hong. What do you think?"
"Mr. Xu, this is not okay."
"What's wrong?"
"There is a competition for shares in Joaquin, and I am not here to compete for shares. If I sit next to Teacher Xu Hong, it would not be good. People would mistakenly think that Ayuan entrusted me to compete for shares... This is not good."
Lu Shuren narrowed his eyes and looked at Xu Cancan, hesitated for a moment and then laughed.
"Uncle Lu, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that you can be a spectator. What do you think?" Xu Cancan looked away slightly.
Don't know why...
She suddenly had the feeling that Lu Yuan's father could see through many things.
Like father, like son…
It seems that Uncle Lu is not simple either.
"Listen in?" Lu Shuren hesitated for a moment and asked subconsciously.
"Um."
"That's okay." Lu Shuren nodded.
…………………………………………
In the conference room.
"Hello, Teacher Xu Hong."
"Well, hello."
"The weather is really nice today."
"Um……"
Xu Hong looked strangely at the middle-aged man sitting next to him, who was about ten years younger than himself.
He thought this middle-aged man looked familiar.
However, he couldn't figure out who this middle-aged man was for a moment.
Of course, Xu Hong didn't think much about it. After all, he had to meet many people a day. It was normal for him to be familiar with a few occasionally, right?
However, then he felt something was not right.
To be able to sit here with Joaquin, even though he looks like a participant in the audience, he is basically a well-known person in various wealthy circles, right?
There’s no reason why you shouldn’t recognize such a person, right?
But, in fact, I really don’t know him.
This is strange.
When thinking of this, Xu Hong looked at the middle-aged man next to him.
Then……
He saw the middle-aged man smiling at him.
The expression on his face was equally weird.
This kind of weirdness really made Xu Hong very uncomfortable...
Could it be that this person also came here to compete for equity?
"Teacher Xu Hong, what do you think of the future entertainment industry?"
"The entertainment industry in the future...it's hard to say..."
"I have listened to your lectures. In your lectures, you said that you have always been very optimistic about the entertainment field..."
"Are you a student in my lecture?"
"Yes, especially that time at NTU, I also participated..."
"Are you interested in the entertainment industry?"
"No...I have no interest in the entertainment industry..."
"You're not here to compete?"
"No, no, no...where do I have so much money? I just came here to see you. Well, Teacher Xu Hong, your book "The Biography of Xu Hong" has been of great help to me, and your experience is also very inspiring.
I also opened a small chain store in 2008..."
"Huh? "Bana" chain restaurant?"
"No, no..."
""Xu's" catering?"
"No, no..."
"Huh? Then you are..." When he heard this, Xu Hong frowned.
In recent years, I haven’t heard from many other larger restaurant chain companies.
"Oh oh oh, I am a "remote" catering..."
"Remote? Wait!" Xu Hong was stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Shuren, "You are Lu Yuan's..."
"Yes, yes! Teacher Xu, I am Lu Yuan's father!" Lu Shuren nodded quickly.
"..."
When he heard this, Xu Hong narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Shuren.
silence.
Yes, silence.
At this moment, there was actually some hostility in his heart.
He felt that he understood something.
Lu Yuan is actually here.
But if Lu Yuan doesn't come forward himself, what does it mean to ask his father to come forward?
Could it be that there is something wrong with this?
At this time, not only did Xu Hong think of this idea, but this idea also appeared in other people's minds.
Everyone was staring at Lu Shuren.
Lu Shuren looked at these weird people around him.
He was also silent.
He knew that he must have been misunderstood.
…………………………
The battle for equity this time seems fierce.
Every price increase seems to be like a war, and everyone is quarreling.
However, every time the price was increased, everyone would subconsciously glance at Lu Shuren.
I felt a little uneasy in my heart.
Lu Shuren was silent from beginning to end and did not speak.
But precisely because of this silence, everyone found it strange.
After all, a person’s name is like a tree’s shadow.
The person standing behind Lu Shuren was no one else, but Lu Yuan, the most popular person in China at the moment.
Lu Yuan...
This is not a good person.
Everyone's general impression of Lu Yuan is that of an ambitious tycoon, and the timing of Lu Shuren's appearance is really untimely...
If you say that Lu Yuan has no plans and no ideas about Joaquin, who would believe this?
Therefore, even if Lu Shuren was a bystander, everyone could feel an indescribable feeling of discomfort.
Especially Xu Hong.
Xu Hong felt that no matter how hard Lu Shuren sat next to him, he felt uncomfortable.
Although he didn't turn around, he always felt like he was being stared at by a poisonous snake.
Two or three hours passed.
Fierce discussions and competition still continue.
Just at this moment...
"Six billion one billion!"
When Xu Hong suddenly shouted out this number, everyone fell silent.
They all looked at Xu Hong in shock.
Chen Cong and Chen Jianming, father and son, stared at Xu Hong and Lu Shuren strangely.
He always felt that today's equity meeting revealed a strange feeling.
Six billion is their bottom line.
Sixty-one billion...
Everyone thinks it's not worth it.
Although, it is only 100 million more, but...
The taste is different.
However, Xu Hong is bound to win against Joaquin.
Moreover, for some reason, he always felt that there must be something wrong with Lu Shuren sitting next to him.
After all, although Lu Yuan is not ranked on the rich list and his actual total assets are not much, Lu Yuan and Xu Hong always feel uneasy!
He decided to cut through the mess quickly.
Xu Cancan looked at Lu Shuren.
After seeing that Lu Shuren was silent from beginning to end, I felt a little disappointed in my heart.
Could it be that Uncle Lu really came here to ask for an autograph?
…………………………
evening.
"Mr. Lu, are you really just here to sign autographs, not to compete for equity?"
"Really, Teacher Xu, please sign your name for me."
"..."
Lu Shuren took a deep breath.
Signed his name.
The battle for Joaquin's shares finally ended with a price of 6.1 billion.
It fell into the hands of the new richest man Xu Hong.
Chen Cong, Chen Jianming and his son had the idea of fighting, but after seeing Lu Shuren, they gave up for some reason.
Neither of them had anyone to fight with...
They always felt that there seemed to be some internal deal between Lu Yuan and Joaquin, or that Lu Yuan and Xu Hong had reached some kind of deal.
Anyway...
Lu Shuren's appearance was really weird.
After greeting each other, the "big shots" left Joaquin one after another.
Lu Shuren walked out with Xu Hong holding a signed copy of "The Biography of Xu Hong" with a smile on his face.
Xu Hong was also smiling, but there was always a very uncomfortable expression on his face.
Spending an extra 100 million does not feel good.
"Mr. Lu..."
"What?"
"What exactly is Lu Yuan going to do? What does he mean?" Xu Hong finally stared at Lu Shuren again.
"Teacher Xu, you really misunderstood. My coming here this time has nothing to do with Lu Yuan. I just want to meet you and chat with you. It would be better if we could cooperate." Lu Shuren hid the book.
Okay, then looked at Xu Hong.
"Mr. Lu, how do you want to cooperate?"
"I have a "remote" takeout company, which is responsible for delivering food to major hotel chains and restaurants. There are currently ten locations across the country, but the companies I cooperate with are all small businesses... I think in terms of business, we can
Cooperation, although Mr. Xu, you are currently the richest man, but the more the better, right? We will also need many allies in the future, right?" Lu Shuren narrowed his eyes and showed a smile.
Although the identity gap between the two is very large.
But Lu Shuren didn't have any sense of inferiority, instead there was a hint of passion in his eyes.
"Just for this?" Xu Hong's expression was slightly exciting.
"Well, yes."
"Mr. Lu, I'm sorry... We don't need any other unrelated cooperation at the moment. Our company system is very sound and will only get better in the future... Although I have never heard of the cooperation plan you mentioned, I am not very interested...
..." Xu Hong suddenly shook his head and turned to leave without even looking at Lu Shuren.
"ah?"
"Mr. Lu... Joaquin will shake things up after I take over. If you are serious, you can remind Lu Yuan a little bit... I don't know what he is thinking, but with the advent of the Internet age, after all, it is
It’s different. If one person doesn’t move well, he will fall down... But he is very smart and does not dare to spread his stall too big... But when it comes to cooperation, I hope to have some cooperation with Lu Yuan... "
"..." Lu Shuren's smile gradually disappeared.
Then he frowned.
Don't know why...
He always felt that the things he admired about Xu Hong suddenly disappeared.
seem……
Xu Hong, who talks eloquently on the podium and talks simply in the book, is completely different from the rich man in front of him who speaks with a touch of sarcasm.
"Uncle Lu...what's wrong?"
"No, Mr. Chen, hello."
"Uncle Lu...he won't cooperate with you, but we will cooperate with you. We have shopping malls all over the country. Although we don't focus on food, I believe we still have the opportunity to cooperate." Chen Cong hesitated for a moment.
, then looked at Lu Shuren and said these words.
Chen Jianming next to him also smiled at Lu Shuren.
He seemed to admire Lu Shuren very much.
…………………………
November 20th.
Joaquin announced that 30% of its shares were handed over to Xu Hong, the richest man in China.
Xu Hong looked at all the reporters at the media conference.
"The Joaquin of the future will be a different Joaquin. I believe that he will become a more powerful entertainment company than Tianyu."
"Within one year, Joaquin will be on par with Tianyu, and within two years, Joaquin will surpass Tianyu!"
"As for catering? Haha, do you think there is anyone in the domestic catering industry who can compare with me now? I have reached the pinnacle of one industry, and now, I am about to reach the pinnacle of another industry!"
""Remote"? No, no, "remote" is not our opponent. Of course, I admire Lu Yuan very much. I hope to chat with Lu Yuan. If possible, I hope Lu Yuan can join us in Joaquin. I will respond accordingly.
position..."
"..."
Xu Hong changed his usual low profile and suddenly made such a loud noise in the media.
Although calm and smiling.
but……
But he looks extremely domineering.
For a time, the media were all shocked. Xu Hong’s interview was circulated all day on the 20th!
What does Xu Hong mean by this sentence?
Although it is not stated explicitly, the meaning is obvious!
He hopes Lu Yuan can help him work!
…………………………
In fact...
Lu Yuan received a call from Xu Hong that night.
Xu Hong's purpose is very clear.
He asked how much "remote" entertainment could be sold for.
He hopes to acquire Yuan Yuan and incorporate it into his territory.
