Media Tycoon since 1999

Chapter 156 Negotiation, Shareholding

In today's phone call, Wu Peng was completely convinced by Gao Yang, he really is a guy with extraordinary vision.

My cousin Gu Yawen looked at men very viciously, no wonder she was unrequited love from the beginning.

Since Wu Peng was 18 years old, he has been playing small games and started doing business with some friends.

As a result, I have been doing business part-time in Jinyang for 9 years, and it is not as good as I have been doing stocks for more than a year in Gaoyang.

Gao Yang and his friends run a small supermarket in Jinyang, as well as a DM business newspaper. Wu Peng knows about it, and even knows that it is doing well.

It's just that this kind of small business, he still doesn't like it.

Gao Yang dared to invest 1000 million yuan in business, which was a big deal in Wu Peng's eyes, so he immediately contacted his friends in Shudu.

On the afternoon of June 6, Gao Yang received a call from Wu Peng, saying that he was looking for a friend to get in touch.

Gao Yang asked: "Second brother, what's your friend's background?"

Wu Peng said: "His name is He Yong. He is one year older than me. There is a deputy governor in his family. Our two families are family friends. We have known each other since we were young. In short, you can rest assured that he is doing business. When do you plan to come back to talk?"

Gao Yang thought about it: "I will strive to arrive at Shudu next Friday night and come back with Yawen. If it is convenient, let's make an appointment on Saturday."

Wu Peng said: "It should be no problem. I will pick you up at the airport on Friday night. Besides, since you dare to invest 1000 million, the second brother will also invest some money with you."

Gao Yang smiled and said, "Second brother, how much are you going to vote for?"

Wu Peng smiled and said: "Second brother is poorer than you, and he can probably raise 500 million. In addition, I guess He Yong also wants to vote. I told him your opinion, and he can probably raise 500 million."

Gao Yang said: "Second brother, please tell Brother Yong that our purpose is to seek cooperation, and we must not overwhelm others. If the other party is unwilling to accept, then I will just not vote and find another project."

Wu Peng smiled and said: "Don't worry, He Yong has a similar personality to mine, he's not that kind of person, he's very easy to get along with."

Gao Yang said: "Also, both of you are my elder brothers. However, this investment is of great importance. Regardless of whether the negotiation is successful or not, I hope that the negotiation will be led by me. No matter what decision I make at that time, please both of you You can understand, okay?"

Wu Peng smiled and said: "No problem, of course you are the one to discuss your idea, and I will greet He Yong in advance..."

At this time, Gao Yang just woke up from his lunch break, and Gu Yawen is also used to accompany Gao Yang on his lunch break.

After hanging up the phone, Gao Yang told Gu Yawen that he was going to invest 1000 million to take a share in a catering company that makes hot pot.

Gu Yawen was shocked: "Are you so optimistic about making hot pot?"

Gao Yang said with a smile: "Yes, I am optimistic, especially Sichuan-flavored hot pot will come to the capital to open up the market."

Gu Yawen thought of the hot pot restaurant where she ate yesterday, and the business was pretty good.

Besides, with Gao Yang's ability, even if he loses money, he can still make it back in the future. It is not so easy to lose 1000 million invested in catering.

It is indeed easy to make money in the catering market in Beijing. Gu Yawen also has a deep understanding, after all, she often eats out.

Gu Yawen smiled and said: "I believe in your vision and support."

Gao Yang said again: "I have agreed with my second brother, we will fly to Shudu on Friday night."

Gu Yawen said: "Aren't you going to be on duty to review newspapers on Friday night?"

Gao Yang said: "Small matter, this week is a regular newspaper, I just ask Wan Hong to help me push it."

Gu Yawen said: "Then let's leave early, I'll take half a day off, book a ticket for three or four in the afternoon, and arrive around 6 in the evening."

"It's okay..." Gao Yang nodded, and his hands began to be dishonest.

Gu Yawen smiled sweetly, and pressed her fragrant lips.

It's good to be young, Gu Yawen is used to it, taking a lingering lunch break on weekends.

On June 6, after 22:6 p.m., the two of Gao Yang left Shudu Airport, and Wu Peng came to pick them up in his Pajero.

Unexpectedly, He Yong also came.

He Yong is about the same size as Wu Peng, and he looks more handsome, and he obviously knew Gu Yawen before.

In the past two days, Wu Peng praised Gao Yang very well, and He Yong greeted him with a smile.

Under Wu Peng's introduction, Gao Yang learned that He Yong worked in the Provincial Department of Finance and was a senior official.

During the conversation, Gao Yang felt that He Yong was also a casual person who was easy to deal with.

He looks similar to Wu Peng, probably not very interested in official career, but also likes to make money with his own ability.

Gao Yang suggested that tonight, go to the Lao of Shudu Hai to experience it first.

Shudu is originally a city of food, and the competition in the catering industry is fierce. Haidilao's store in Shudu opened in the second half of last year. It has been in business for less than a year, and the business is very good.

Gao Yang observed carefully, the service of this store is really good, but in many details, it is not as good as Gao Yang's previous experience in the store in Beijing, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

The taste of hot pot is really good, and it can be regarded as unique in Shudu.

At 10 o'clock on Saturday morning, I met two partners of Haidilao, actually two couples, Mr. and Mrs. Zhang Yong and Mrs. Shi Yunhong.

Two couples each hold 50% of the shares.

After the introduction, Gao Yang did not expect that the current Haidilao Catering Company is weaker than he imagined.

In Jianzhou, the birthplace of the business, there are two small stores.

In 99, I opened a large-scale store in Chang'an. In the early days, I lost money for a few months, and the local partners withdrew their capital.

In August last year, another store in Shudu was opened.

With a total of four stores, the annual turnover is less than 5000 million, and the profit is only about 800 million.

Zhang Yong seems to be a very shrewd person. The two shareholders have been introduced to He Yong's background before.

When we met today, after the introduction, I learned about Wu Peng's background.

Zhang Yong and the others were a little confused, these are the three young masters.

Introduce Gao Yang's identity, he is the general manager of a newspaper office in Beijing, and he is also regarded as a son-in-law by others.

After that, we started talking. Gao Yang talked a lot about the situation of the catering market in the capital, and he was very optimistic.

Zhang Yong and Shi Yunhong, in fact, are now also starting to investigate the capital market, intending to open a store in the capital, and they are short of funds. Now there are three sons with deep backgrounds who want to invest, which is naturally what they are looking for.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Gao Yang opened his mouth, he would invest 2000 million.

Zhang Yong was taken aback: "Mr. Gao, how are you going to vote?"

Gao Yang lit a cigarette and thought about it: "Mr. Zhang, I personally voted 1000 million, and these two brothers each voted 500 million. Haidilao's current business scale is actually average, but we are optimistic about the future of this catering company." Prospects.

We are only making financial investments, so it is good to be a shareholder. In the future, the company’s development, under normal circumstances, we will not interfere with specific operations. Mr. Zhang and Mr. Shi, you just have to go boldly.

As for the shares, we generally account for 40%, I account for 20%, and the two of them each account for 10%. In this way, you two founding shareholders still have 60% of the equity, so you can rest assured..."

Zhang Yong was pleasantly surprised, but his face was very steady: "Then let's discuss each other first, and then continue talking later?"

Gao Yang smiled and said, "Okay."
