Chapter 274 Crowdfunding to buy Ferrari (4000 words chapter)
"Brother Xia, let me tell you, Senior Brother and Teacher Tony are the seniors in our field, and they are the first to do this." Pan Qin gave Xia Zekai a detailed explanation.
It also highlights the status of Big Brother and Teacher Tony in the earliest traffic circle on the Internet.
Xia Zekai smiled and nodded to the two of them, then stood up and shook hands with them.
The senior brother said: "Sister Pan, please don't say that again. If you continue to say it, Tony and I will be ashamed." The 'eldest brother' from Jicheng looked very humble. He said: "As the old saying goes, Da
A teacher is a teacher. Although Brother Xia is just starting to play, his achievements are not much worse than ours."
Datou quickly said: "Senior Brother, we don't include me in this. Among the five of us, I am the most rubbish one and I will not accept any rebuttal."
His statement made a few people laugh. Teacher Tony, who has long hair shawl and a square face with a bit of artistic flair, said: "Big head, you are the only one. Who in the circle doesn't know that you have the strongest ability to cash in and sell beds?"
The sales volume in the first month has already exceeded one million, which makes you a real rich man."
"I don't dare to pretend to be big in front of Brother Xia." The young man nicknamed Big Tou pointed at Xia Zekai with admiration on his face: "In terms of traffic and online sales capabilities, who among us can compare to Brother Xia? The sales volume in that month
They are all in the tens of thousands or tens of thousands, and I suspect that the low sales volume is because there are few Internet users, which limits the ceiling."
Speaking of this, even senior brother and teacher Tony couldn't help but admire it.
Yesterday, the three of them heard Pan Qin talking about the 'Jingtong Food Factory' that they had lunch with today, and they discussed this big boss who rarely showed up. There are traces of how many orders he has sold on Taobao Mall.
, although the calculation is not precise, you can still calculate an approximate number of orders after a number like 50,000+.
In addition to the unit price of each order, they have calculated that Xia Zekai's online sales last month were probably not less than 3 million.
It's just that they still underestimated Xia Zekai. Boss Xia is not the kind of high-profile person. If he didn't say it, no one would have guessed that the sales alone last month had exceeded 5 million, and the online sales amounted to more than 4 million.
.
Xia Zekai has always believed in one sentence: to make a fortune silently, there is no need to publicize it for the whole world to know.
There were six people sitting in the room, including Pan Qin's husband Qu Liangping. From time to time they would take a drink from their wine glasses and stop to chat for a while.
Naturally, we talked about the Internet Conference to be held in Jicheng on September 19th.
The eldest brother is a native of Jicheng. He said: "When the time comes, you can go to my place and I will take care of your food, drink and accommodation."
"Senior Brother has said so, I must not be polite." Teacher Tony responded.
Datou also hurriedly nodded and agreed: "Senior Brother, I will have to ask you about the process of leading an outdoor group at that time."
"What, have you figured it out? Do you want to develop in other ways?" The senior brother looked at 'Big Head' with a smile, as if he was looking forward to his question.
'Big Head' nodded: "Yes, just making mattresses, although this thing is very profitable, but the sales volume has reached its peak, and the road has become narrower. When more stores come up later, they will inevitably have to cut prices and promote promotions. I can earn as much money as I can."
It’s also less.”
"I think it would be better to take a group tour now, go out for a walk, and get more exposure to the outside environment, which will be more conducive to my future development."
"Just like you, Senior Brother, when anyone mentions 'Senior Brother' now, you must not give three cents of respect." Da Tou was indeed envious of him.
'Eldest Brother' shook his head and said: "It's pointless to imitate me. Why don't you imitate Mr. Tony, Datou? First publish a book for yourself to improve your style, and then buy a few best-selling books on the market.
It doesn’t matter if you buy a few copies. Don’t be afraid of spending money. Take it and visit the author of the best-selling book, and ask him to sign it for you, and then send it to the younger generations in the family..."
"Understood?" Senior Brother said in a very mysterious manner.
Datou's face was confused, and he didn't understand it at first glance.
Xia Zekai thought for a moment and understood. He glanced at Senior Brother and Teacher Tony thoughtfully, thinking that these two people did have something to offer.
What the senior brother said just now is, to put it bluntly, just to package yourself.
How to package yourself in a more stylish and image-like way.
There are many ways of packaging to choose from, but the one he pointed to is the easiest and easier for most people at this level to succeed in packaging themselves as cultural people.
There is such a strange atmosphere in China. People who are "cultural people" or people in "cultural circles" don't consciously look up to them.
Pan Qin also understood the meaning, and she laughed: "Elder brother is right."
Xia Zekai has no interest in this kind of 'packaging'. He now has a very clear development idea. He just needs to use traffic to divert traffic and develop the current two projects steadily. If there are other projects in the future, he can also consider continuing.
Expand diversified development.
But for him, the most important thing is two words, pragmatism!
After three rounds of drinking, Mr. Tony mentioned something. He said he wanted to crowdfund to buy a Ferrari.
This was obviously a very novel idea. Even the ‘eldest brother’ around him didn’t know about it and asked him: “Why?”
A holy light flashed across the square face of 'Teacher Tony', and he said: "I have always felt that the Internet should not only have traffic, but also trust!"
"And I have already raised 15,000 yuan from crowdfunding. I plan to complete this goal in 10 to 20 years. I believe I can do it." At this moment, Teacher Tony may be more like a god in the eyes of outsiders.
stick.
When Xia Zekai heard that he had raised 15,000 yuan, he was immediately impressed and gave a thumbs up gesture with his backhand: "Teacher Tony, I admire you very much. I wonder how you did this crowdfunding?"
"Everyone who recognizes me and is willing to learn from me can voluntarily donate 1,000 yuan. I won't ask for more." Teacher Tony said this issue very seriously.
Xia Zekai was even more surprised when he heard what he said. This meant that 15 netizens on the other end of the network already trusted him.
"Teacher Tony, I also pledge a share..."
Xia Zekai was going to offer a 'friendly' sponsorship, but before he could finish his words, Teacher Tony stopped him and said, "Forget the sponsorship, let's talk some other time. If you think I'm okay, I'll give it a try."
I accept your offer."
He's a complete showman, but you won't feel disgusted with him, and you'll even be very interested in him.
Xia Zekai thought to himself that maybe he could really learn something from him.
…
Xia Zekai drank at noon and there was no driver at this time, so he simply left the car in the parking lot of Century Hotel, preparing to drive it again tomorrow morning.
Then I took a taxi directly to the farmers' wholesale market in the city to buy some good ingredients for cooking in the evening.
When he went out in the morning, he promised Yatou and Tongtong that he would continue to make delicious food in the evening. Xia Zekai felt that being a good father must set an example and start by fulfilling his promise.
Xia Zekai bought some fresh beef, venison and a freshly slaughtered old hen at the market, and then took a taxi home.
When he got home, his brother-in-law Luo Xincheng was on the phone in the living room. The TV was on and "Happy Girls" was playing. Xia Zekai took a look and saw that the crowded scene seemed to be during an audition.
Xia Zekai was not interested in this kind of program, so he glanced at it and stopped watching it.
When Luo Xincheng saw that his brother-in-law was back, he quickly took the phone away from his ear and shouted: "Brother-in-law, you are back."
He was still a little nervous.
Xia Zekai nodded and said, "Xincheng, I bought beef and venison, and an old hen to make soup. It's a pity that my craftsmanship is average and I can't make it taste good."
Luo Xincheng quickly said: "The food cooked by my brother-in-law is delicious."
"You're not telling the truth." Xia Zekai said to him with a smile. Then he took off his shoes and took the things directly into the kitchen. He washed the meat first, then put onion slices, ginger slices, and aniseed.
After oiling, the business started.
In the living room outside, Luo Xincheng continued to make phone calls. He said, "Mom, my brother-in-law is back and is busy making dinner. I'm going to help. I won't tell you anymore."
"Go ahead, go ahead, Xincheng, at your sister's house, keep your eyes on me, don't be too lazy to move, it'll make people feel disgusted." Liu Chunhua said to him in a tone of someone who has come before.
Luo Xincheng couldn't listen to this. He said a little irritably: "I know, Mom, I'm dead."
After Xia Zekai stewed the beef, he started to pack the venison again.
He was really new to this thing and didn't really know what to do.
During this period, he went to the second bedroom to turn on the computer and searched for relevant tutorials on the Internet. He found that the recipe of "braised venison" was written in more detail and included pictures. Xia Zekai hurriedly read it several times.
Afraid of forgetting again halfway through, I didn't even turn off the computer, so I kept this page open, and from time to time I would run from the kitchen to the second bedroom to read the 'secrets', and then go back to the kitchen to get busy.
It was 3:40 in the afternoon. Xia Zekai finally put away the venison. After boiling the soup over high fire, he changed to simmering over low fire. Then he said to his brother-in-law Luo Xincheng: "Xincheng, please watch more
With two pots in hand, I'll go get Yatou and Tongtong back."
"Brother-in-law, why don't I pick them up?" Luo Xincheng said.
Xia Zekai waved his hand: "No, the teacher in their class has never seen you, so he may not let them go with you."
Luo Xincheng didn't know whether there was such a statement, but he still watched his brother-in-law go out.
Luo Xiyun came back a little earlier than usual today. Xia Zekai had not yet picked up the two girls, so she went in first.
When Luo Xincheng saw his sister coming back, he was puzzled: "Sister, don't you get off work at five o'clock?"
"I came back early today, no way!" Luo Xiyun glared at him, as if he had eaten something.
Luo Xinchengdu did not dare to say much.
Luo Xiyun twitched her nose and smelled a scent. She said, "Xincheng, can you cook? What are you doing in the kitchen?"
Luo Xincheng was embarrassed to answer this.
"My brother-in-law came back early today. There was beef and venison stewed in the pot. Sister, what kind of vision do you have, how did you find such a good person like my brother-in-law?" Luo Xincheng said with emotion that he deserved a beating.
But Luo Xiyun didn't know him the same today and said, "I can't even talk to you."
On the way Xia Zekai came back with the two little girls, Tongtong kept asking if there was anything delicious at home.
She had been thinking about him since she separated from her father in the morning. For this reason, she even skipped the snacks given by the kindergarten in the afternoon. She didn't eat any, so she had an empty stomach and wanted to eat more at night.
"Dad, I'm so hungry. Is there anything delicious?" Tongtong covered her belly and asked again.
Xia Zekai repeated over and over again: "Yes!"
"Hurry home, it will be ready in a while."
When I got home and asked about the smell of meat, the girl became so greedy that her mouth started to water.
Xia Zekai was also confused when he saw that his wife had come back early. This was very unusual for Luo Xiyun.
Luo Xiyun said that she still wanted to come back early and cook a delicious meal to reward him, but she didn't know that he had cooked in advance.
This gave Xia Zekai a sweet feeling of satisfaction.
Life is like this, there are not many flowers in bloom, the beauty fades away, and all that remains is ordinary.
…
In the open space in front of the factory workshop of Jingtong Food Factory, nearly 40 people were already standing in formation.
Lu Huan organized the team in front of the crowd.
When he saw someone still wriggling back and forth in the same place, he yelled: "Are you covered with maggots? If you don't behave honestly, I'll let you go out in the sun for half an hour to kill the insects."
"If anyone else has an idea, please sign up!"
As soon as Lu Huan spoke these two words, the crowd immediately became more obedient.
Wang Yewei then called out to Xia Zekai who was still in the office looking at the data.
It was decided yesterday that the August monthly staff meeting would be held today. Xia Zekai wanted to 'report' to all employees on the good harvest in the factory in August, so he had to record some key data clearly.
Seeing Wang Yewei coming to call him, Xia Zekai said: "Okay, I'll be there right away."
In more than a minute, Xia Zekai arrived outside the workshop with empty hands. Looking at the neat team, he felt full of accomplishment.
After standing still, he came up and said: "All the brothers and sisters of Jingtong Development, we are gathered together again today. Are you happy?"
"Happy!"
The crowd shouted loudly.
The smile on Xia Zekai's face became even brighter. He said: "I am also very happy, so I want to take advantage of this rare good day today to share with you some of the achievements our company has achieved last month, and also share my thoughts at this time.
The joy is shared with you.”
"When I just saw these data, I was very happy in my heart. I told myself that Jingtong is one step closer to becoming a large local company in Qicheng."
"Seeing that the income of our employees has increased again, and one employee's income in August has even exceeded 10,000 yuan. To be honest, I am really happy for her!"
When he said this, the crowd immediately became commotion, followed by several exclamations.
"Is it Director Li or Director Zhang? Could it be Gong Lu?"
There were several versions of speculation in an instant, but no matter which version it was, these people's guesses were all inclined to the 'management' of Jingtong Development.
