Rebirth 98, the rise started from ripping off Microsoft

Chapter 358
As the end of the year approaches, Internet cafes have sprung up like mushrooms on the market. After the market is saturated, operators of Internet cafes have no choice but to wage a price war in order to compete for customers.

Zhongjing Street in Baiyun City is one of the components of Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street.After Huang Dongheng learned that Li Quanwang's nephew had made money by participating in Internet cafes, he managed to borrow hundreds of thousands of dollars and opened an Internet cafe in an alley on Zhongjing Street, with a total of forty machines.

The reason why they chose to open an Internet cafe here was because it was located in a downtown area, but it was a basement alley with a lot of people coming and going, but the rent was much cheaper than the facade on the first floor next to the street.

When the Internet cafe first opened, the business was very good. After all, he was the only Internet cafe within a few hundred meters.Forty machines are basically not idle 24 hours a day.

This made Huang Dongheng and Tian Jiahong very happy.

But the good times didn't last long. They just opened for more than a month, and an Internet cafe opened next door, with more than 50 machines.

After another half a month, an Internet cafe opened on the opposite side, with two fronts and seventy or eighty machines, neatly arranged.

Electronic products cost one price per day. Huang Dongheng and his colleagues used to cost more than 1 yuan to configure a computer, but now they only need 8000 yuan to configure a computer. The cost of opening an Internet cafe is 20 million yuan cheaper than Huang Dongheng’s time. .

With more and more Internet cafes, the price of accessing the Internet is getting lower and lower. One Internet cafe even offered an unfathomable price of 20 yuan for members to spend the whole night, directly pushing their peers to the ground and rubbing them crazily.

On the counter, Tian Jiahong's abacus was rattling, and the expression on his face became more and more gloomy.

Huang Dongheng sat beside him eating instant noodles.

It is just after twelve o'clock in the evening, and there are seven or eight people in the Internet cafe surfing the Internet.

"The Internet cafe's business is getting worse and worse. Last month's profit was still [-] to [-] yuan, but this month it is only [-] to [-] yuan."

Huang Dongheng was also very depressed, and couldn't help cursing: "There is a computer company called Jianlai Technology, which promotes Internet cafe computers everywhere. The boss is really not a thing, and the Internet cafes are everywhere, and our business is getting more and more difficult. That's right. This kind of person should be dragged into target shooting."

The reason why these newly opened Internet cafes have the confidence to fight the price war is because of the crazy price cuts of the Internet cafe computers of Jianlai Technology.Take an Internet cafe with one hundred machines as an example, almost one day a night, and the cost of opening a shop will be reduced by 1 yuan!
According to this rate of price reduction, those who open Internet cafes early feel that they are working for this key.

The more they talked, the more angry Tian Jiahong said with a sad face: "According to the current rate of making money, when will we be able to afford a big villa?"

Huang Dongheng was also very upset. When he thought that Li Quanwang's family, whom he looked down upon, could actually live in a big villa, his heart felt as if it was being roasted by fire. The scorching feeling was too uncomfortable.

Tian Jiahong said: "How did you think about the matter I discussed with you before?"

Huang Dongheng didn't react for a while, and asked back with a blank expression: "Which one?"

Tian Jiahong snorted softly, expressing her dissatisfaction with Huang Dongheng.

But then she still said: "Join the Lingdong Fund Mutual Aid Association, join now, as long as you pay 5.00, you will get [-]% interest a month, and after joining for one year, you can get back the principal, which is more cost-effective than storing it in the bank." too much."

After all, money was involved, so Huang Dongheng didn't dare to agree immediately, but frowned and asked, "Is this thing reliable?"

Tian Jiahong didn't take it seriously: "What's the matter? You are a coward. Is it possible that such a large chamber of commerce is trying to deceive us with a hundred thousand yuan? Do you know what the leader and the vice-chairman do? They do everything Big businesses like hotel management and export trade have assets worth hundreds of millions.”

"But that doesn't mean they are reliable. What if they team up to deceive people?"

Huang Dongheng still couldn't make up his mind. After all, although he made a lot of money by opening an Internet cafe, he was used to being poor before, and he was afraid of being cheated and ruining his fortune.

Tian Jiahong gave Huang Dongheng a hard look, and scolded: "You are really worthless! If I am not from Lingdong, even if we send money over, they don't necessarily want it. If we continue to hesitate, when will we live in the university?" villa?"

Huang Dongheng thought of the high-spirited faces of Li Quanwang's family, he gritted his teeth and made a decision: "Then join the club! Anyway, it's a waste of money in your hands, it's better to give them money to make money."

Seeing that Huang Dongheng had finally figured it out, Tian Jiahong smiled and said, "That's right. You can go to the Lingdong Guild Hall at the end of Chunbi Road tomorrow morning to find Liang Shuzhen and apply for membership. She seems to be the rotating president this year." .”

"it is good."

The next morning, Huang Dongheng and Tian Jiahong came to Lingdong Guild Hall with a black briefcase containing 10 yuan in cash.

Liang Shuzhen is the rotating president of the Lingdong Fund Mutual Aid Association. She heard that someone wanted to join the mutual aid association. Although the business in the hotel was very busy, she rushed to the Lingdong Guild Hall as quickly as possible and began to discuss with Huang Dongheng about joining the association.

The reason why Liang Shuzhen is so active now is that she lent money to Wu Qiuping at that time.

Because Wu Qiuping's family directly "destroyed the family", the money they borrowed at the beginning was directly in vain.In order to fill up the accounts, those who advocated lending money to Wu Qiuping at the beginning all suffered a wave of blood.

In fact, speaking of it, paying money is a trivial matter. After all, there are losses and gains in business, and no one can guarantee that they will make money every time.The point is that this thing is worse.The Wu family was wiped out. Many people accused the Mutual Aid Association of lax auditing and increased risks. Therefore, a lot of funds were redeemed, and the number of new members was also much less. The fund pool shrank a lot. This is tantamount to shaking the mutual aid association. Basically, this is why Liang Shuzhen is anxious.

In the negotiation room, hot tea had already been brewed. As soon as Huang Dongheng and Tian Jiahong came in, Liang Shuzhen said to Huang Dongheng and Tian Jiahong with a smile on her face: "Welcome, Ms. Tian, ​​are you from Lingdong?" ?”

Huang Dongheng and Tian Jiahong used to be very ordinary small families. Although it was decent to be a small civil servant, their lives were still in debt. Later, they opened an Internet cafe, which was considered a turning point.Even so, compared with Liang Shuzhen, a big boss who runs a restaurant, it is still not enough.

Therefore, Huang Dongheng and Tian Jiahong were flattered to see Liang Shuzhen being so polite.

"Hello President Liang."

Tian Jiahong's tone of voice was full of flattery.

"I'm from Lingdong. I heard that the Lingdong Fund Mutual Aid Association is recruiting new members recently. The policy is very good, so we wanted to come and ask."

Liang Shuzhen took out two brochures from the drawer, put them in front of the two, and said: "Yes, the entry threshold of our mutual aid association was very high before, which invisibly turned away many Lingdong fellows. , This is not in line with the original intention of our mutual aid association at all. Therefore, in order to allow more fellow villagers to enjoy the convenience of the mutual aid association and achieve success faster, we have lowered the threshold, and a minimum of [-] yuan is required to join the association. "

Huang Dongheng and Tian Jiahong looked at the brochure very seriously.

There are six threshold levels, the lowest is 10 yuan, followed by 50, 100 million, 200 million, 500 million, and the highest reaches the level of [-] million yuan.

The services that each level of membership can enjoy are different.

For example, those like Huang Dongheng and others who join the membership with a minimum of 10 yuan can only enjoy the agreed monthly interest of 5.00%, but cannot apply for a loan from the mutual aid association.

In order to be eligible to borrow money from mutual aid associations, one must jump up two levels, that is, members of the million-yuan level.

Members above this level are not only eligible to participate in borrowing, but also have higher deposit interest.

Liang Shuzhen went on to say: "Now that the mutual aid association is open, not only has the entry barrier been lowered, but we have also launched a referral event. After joining the membership, you can recommend others to join the mutual aid association. Once successful, we will reward you with varying amounts."

Hearing that there are rewards for pulling people, Tian Jiahong's eyes lit up: "If we pull people, what rewards will there be?"

Liang Shuzhen introduced to the two of them: "Now the business of the mutual aid association is very big, and it is in great need of funds. If you can attract people to join the association, you can get [-]% of the principal paid by the other party, and then get another [-]% every month. Two-thirds, for one year in a row.”

Later, he specifically emphasized: "This can be superimposed. The more people you bring in, the richer the rewards will be."

Tian Jiahong thought about it in his mind, and immediately burst into joy, and hurriedly said: "I will work hard and recommend many people to join the club. When we have saved enough money, we will also come to upgrade! Let's pay 10 yuan to join the club today."

"can."

The two paid the money, went through the formalities, received a membership card, and left thankfully.

Walking out of the hall, Tian Jiahong remembered the matter of recruiting people into the club, so she said to Huang Dongheng: "You heard about the recruiting of people just now. You can go to Li Quanwang, the Tongxin Internet Cafe he runs has now opened to other cities, and the expansion Very fast and must be rich."

When Huang Dongheng heard this, he was immediately unhappy, and his eyebrows almost twitched together: "Our two families have fallen out, and you still want me to go to him? Do you want me to come and be laughed at by him? No! "

Tian Jiahong scolded: "Are you stupid? If you have money to make, what are you doing with shame? Can't you just beg him in a low voice? As long as we get 100 million, we can get 34 on the spot, and we can get two more every month." Wan, you can get [-] in total! This is free money, how much is your old face worth?"

"Ok."

Facing the staring Tian Jiahong, Huang Dongheng had no choice but to agree to find Li Quanwang.

This morning, Li Quanwang came to the school, found Lu Yiming, and said mysteriously, "Mingzi, I have found a way to get rich!"

Since Lu Yiming took Li Quanwang to take off in the last semester, although Li Quanwang's life has become much more comfortable, seeing Lu Yiming getting richer and richer, he is also greedy.But he doesn't have any business acumen at all, and he can't think of anything to make money.After such a long time, he finally heard a way to make money from other places, so he couldn't wait to show it to Lu Yiming.

Lu Yiming always thought that Li Quanwang was a salty fish, and in fact it was true. The four words "get along" can basically sum up Li Quanwang's life.He never expected that Li Quanwang would find a way to make money one day, and immediately said in amazement: "The way to get rich? Tell me."

Li Quanwang then told about joining the Mutual Aid Association.

His monthly Internet cafe dividends are all stored in a card. In terms of his living conditions, he can't spend a lot of money at all.His biggest expense every month is the property fee of the villa.

He also thought about letting his parents stop buying vegetables and live in the villa to enjoy the blessings, but the two of them couldn't stay idle at all.

The money is deposited in the bank, and the interest rate is not high, but if you join a mutual aid society, the situation is completely different.The rate of return kills any bank wealth management products.

On the surface, this is definitely a wealth management product with explosive yields, and the banks shed tears when they saw it.But in fact, Lu Yiming has been exposed to so many cases of fraud and pyramid schemes, and he knows how unreliable this stuff is.

You are staring at other people's interest, but they are staring at your principal!
"Wang Zai."

Lu Yiming hooked Li Quanwang's neck, and said earnestly: "If something goes wrong, there must be a monster. If there is nothing to do, it's either rape or stealing. Why doesn't he do such a profitable thing by himself, and come to tell you?"

Li Quanwang was confused and puzzled: "Yes, why?"

Lu Yiming said helplessly: "Because this is against the law. Do you know about illegal fundraising? When you pay the money, it will not be your money."

Li Quanwang was skeptical, and said: "Impossible? I heard that the chairman and vice-chairman of the Mutual Aid Association are engaged in big business, and their reputation is more important than their lives. They shouldn't engage in fraud, right? Didn't our Tongxin Internet Cafe use similar Is there any way to raise money? There is nothing wrong with it.”

Facing Li Quanwang, who was illiterate and illiterate, Lu Yiming wished he could just give him three big pussies to wake him up.

"You know what a fart. At that time, the banner we played was recharge rewards. This in itself can be interpreted as a kind of commercial behavior, but in fact it is also playing around the edge. And what you are doing now is a proper illegal fundraising, and you still recruit me. ? If I charge one hundred and eighty thousand, believe it or not, you will have to go to jail for a few years?"

When Li Quanwang heard that he would go to jail for charging money, he was terrified: "What you said is true? I thought I could really make money, so I came to tell you..."

Knowing that Li Quanwang didn't have the guts to break the law, Lu Yiming had no choice but to ask him: "Then who gave you this bad idea?"

Li Quanwang replied honestly: "My fourth uncle Huang Dongheng."

When Lu Yiming heard this, he frowned immediately: "Didn't your two fall out because of the loan?"

Regarding this matter, Li Quanwang himself was also puzzled: "Yes, but the fourth uncle came to the door with a gift, and after all the good words, I can't kick him out, can I?"

Lu Yiming immediately sneered and scolded: "This guy is really just that 'flexible and stretchable'."

Afterwards, Lu Yiming saw that Li Quanwang didn't seem to realize the seriousness of the matter, so he said in a serious tone: "Do you know about the meeting?"
