Rebirth: Starting from the Cafeteria

"Yin Qiang is dumbfounded now, right? When dealing with a man like him, it's not okay to just show weakness. You should teach him a lesson."

Du Shaojie responded with a smile, saying that this matter was something they had discussed among themselves.

Yin Qiang wanted to take this opportunity to lower the price, but Du Shaojie and others were not willing to sell it to him. Anyway, there were many buyers.

No one denies that Yin Qiang has enormous power behind him, but he can't kill Du Shaojie and others with one blow.

"Yes, but don't push him too far. I know how to handle it."

Pang Weidong spoke the truth. He really couldn't fall out with Yin Qiang now. If that guy interfered, it would be difficult to sell the remaining KTV halls.

If the price is right, he will still sell part of the karaoke bar to Yin Qiang.

"Okay, you and Apo can do it, but you have to be more efficient and get rid of the remaining assets as soon as possible."

Du Shaojie hung up the phone immediately, as he believed the other party could handle it.

Sure enough, seeing how tough Pang Weidong and the others were, Yin Qiang gave up the idea of ​​taking advantage of the situation.

Therefore, he offered a fairly fair price and wanted to buy the remaining KTV halls and buffet restaurants of [Yuedong Entertainment].

When Yin Qiang first took over the buffet restaurant, he made some stupid moves, but he quickly reacted, improved the chefs' salaries, and gradually stabilized the situation.

He discovered that buffet restaurants were actually quite profitable.

Pang Weidong and Yin Qiang agreed to meet in Beijing, and Xu Bo also rushed over. Du Shaojie had been hiding behind the scenes, so he did not participate in the final negotiations and just waited patiently for information.

However, the two sides had an unpleasant encounter soon after they met.

"Boss Pang, the price I offered is already pretty good. You're still raising the price. Isn't that a bit unfair?"

"Mr. Yin, my price is very fair. If you don't believe me, I will release the news now. See how many people will be interested. I came to negotiate with you because I saw that you sincerely want to acquire these assets. You can't do this."

"You're threatening me? How about this, I'll do the deal according to your offer, but I can only pay you half of the money first, and the rest of the money will be paid within a year."

"Boss Yin, are you trying to get something for nothing? Don't you think about how much cash flow the karaoke bar and the buffet restaurant have in a month? You have to pay it off within a year. Are you trying to make money with my things for free? Absolutely not."

"Pang Weidong, you are not good at this and that. Are you really trying to make things difficult for me? Believe it or not, I can close down all the karaoke bars you own with just one word, leaving you with nothing."

"Yin Qiang, I really don't believe what you said. Do you really think that God is the boss and you are the second, and you are so arrogant? I'm going to say this today, just use whatever skills you have, the worst that can happen is that both of us will die."

The first meeting ended unpleasantly, and Pang Weidong and Xu Bo left in anger.

Yin Qiang did not stop him, but felt that the other party's toughness seemed a little unreasonable. Of course, he did not have the ability to close all the other party's karaoke bars with just one sentence, at most he would just cause some trouble.

Both sides are playing the "chicken" game, and neither wants to smash the jars and pots.

A few days later, Yin Qiang got the news that Pang Weidong was going to sell several karaoke bars to the highest bidder. Only then did he realize that the other party was not joking, but really wanted to break up with him.

So he quickly called Pang Weidong.

"Mr. Pang, do you really want to turn against me?"

"What are you talking about? Do I want to turn against you? You are planning to get something for nothing, do I still have to respect you?"

"Okay, stop messing around. I'll set up a table for lunch and we can have a few drinks."

Yin Qiang knew very well that the trickery and robbery could not be used on Pang Weidong and others. If the other party was an ordinary person without any background, it would be fine, but the other party was obviously not easy to deal with.

If he really dares to do this, he will be attacked by everyone, and even the people behind him will not be able to protect him.

You can use tricks, compete with your ability, or even trip up the other party, but Yin Qiang just can't cross the bottom line. Therefore, the two sides tested each other and returned to the negotiation table.

This time, Yin Qiang seemed much more sincere.

The two sides began formal negotiations, with the price being the main focus, but he never mentioned delayed payment again.

Finally, Pang Weidong made some concessions and the two sides reached an agreement. [Yuedong Entertainment] sold its remaining KTVs and cafeterias to Yin Qiang, who would pay all the money one month after the agreement came into effect.

This outcome is quite satisfactory for both parties.

After the agreement came into effect, Yin Qiang directly transferred the corresponding amount to the account of [Yuedong Entertainment] without delaying for a single day.

Pang Weidong and Xu Bo began to transfer assets to each other in batches, and the store employees were also transferred simultaneously. Yin Qiang took over all of them and signed new employment contracts with them.

Du Shaojie got the news first and felt relieved.

In fact, there would be no problem for him, Pang Weidong and Xu Bo to work in this industry for a few more years. It’s just that everyone’s horizons have become higher now and they don’t have to worry about some troublesome things.

He thought Feng Qingsong's concerns were not unnecessary. Now that he had gotten rid of the KTV industry, he had one less weakness.

After Pang Weidong and Xu Bo finished their work, the three of them gathered in Yangcheng.

"Now [Yuedong Entertainment] still has hundreds of millions of funds. Should we divide them?" Pang Weidong sought Du Shaojie's opinion. If the funds were divided, the company would be finished.

However, the proceeds from the sale of assets still have to be taxed, and this matter still needs to go through procedures.

"Why divide it? No one is short of money. There is no need to liquidate a good company. I suggest that we just move the company to Shenzhen and then pay attention to the gaming and film industries to see what we can do."

Du Shaojie disagreed with liquidation, and Xu Bo also disagreed.

Finally, the few people agreed to carry out an appropriate round of dividends and then move the company's headquarters to the south.

Xu Bo immediately bought an office building in Shenzhen and moved the company there. Except for three or five key personnel, the rest of the staff were recruited locally.

Anyway, the company has no business at the moment and doesn’t need many people.

Pang Weidong went to take care of the final things. Over the years, many people had helped him behind the scenes, and he needed to visit them one by one to maintain the relationships.

"Mr. Du, I was actually quite optimistic about the buffet restaurant, but it's a pity that everything was sold out."

Du Shaojie took some time to go to Shenzhen and had a meal with Xu Bo who was in charge of the city.

Xu Bo didn't want to open the Durian KTV, after all, there were too many troubles, and if he continued to do it, something might go wrong. But he was a little reluctant to give up the buffet restaurant, thinking it was a pity.

"Buffets are ultimately part of the catering industry. We started this to complement the karaoke bar. There is little point in doing it alone."

Du Shaojie shook his head. He didn't feel any regrets.

Buffet is another track with a low ceiling, and he is too lazy to consider it.

Xu Bo understood Du Shaojie's attitude and said nothing more. The other party was a giant in the catering industry and a real expert, so he could still listen to his opinions.

"Boss Du, I'm trying to understand the gaming industry you mentioned. Can this thing really make money?"

Xu Bo has recently come into contact with the gaming industry. Currently, the market is still dominated by stand-alone games, and the concept of online games has not yet been deeply rooted in people's minds.

The company began to pay attention to talents in this area, but he had little confidence in the future.

"You'll slowly learn about this. This thing can really make money. It all depends on whether you can grasp it."

Du Shaojie didn't say much. He himself was not very familiar with the gaming industry. He vaguely remembered that there was a very popular online game called "Legend" around the millennium.

He couldn't give any specific suggestions, so Xu Bo and others needed to find the way themselves.

He will ask someone to collect information about the game [Legend], and after the information is collected, he will give it to Xu Bo and Pang Weidong.

[Yuedong Entertainment] After selling off the KTV assets, there is actually no new main business direction. Games are just one of the directions that can be explored, and Pang Weidong and Xu Bo will worry about it in the future.

Du Shaojie stayed in Shenzhen for a few days, and people came to see him one after another.

It is also very interesting to say that due to his, Pang Weidong and Xu Bo's successful investments in the Internet industry, especially in the three major portals, the three of them became famous in the industry.

In this way, they happened to become investment tycoons in the Internet industry, and were nicknamed "God of Wealth".

The word "Internet" is a hot topic nowadays. There are many people with dreams, but they lack money. Everyone wants to get investment for their project.

Du Shaojie didn't meet any of them. According to the different projects, he asked these people to contact [Huaxin Investment], [Dingxin International (Shencheng) Company] and [Yuedong Entertainment] respectively.

He doesn't like to be in the limelight, fortunately Pang Weidong and Xu Bo shared the attention with him, otherwise he would have disappeared for a while.

Two days passed.

Luo Qin handed the sorted information to Du Shaojie.

He took the information and read it through. All the content was about the game "Legend". This game was developed by a South Korean company and has been on the market for two years. It is said that "Legend 2" will be released next year.

However, this game has not yet been launched in China.

He then asked someone to deliver the information to Xu Bo, and he took Wang Yongli and others to Hong Kong.

The next is the cold winter of the Internet industry. The bursting of the Internet bubble will ruthlessly shatter many people's dreams of getting rich. He never planned to change industries, and at most he used his foresight to make some investments to make profits.

To be honest, if he were to start an Internet company on his own, he would probably suffer huge losses.

This is also an important reason why he strives to retain [Yuedong Entertainment]. Personal ability, time and energy are limited. It would be great to let others help you make money.

Du Shaojie rested in Hong Kong for a while, and Pang Weidong and Xu Bo came to play for two days.

It is convenient to have a yacht. When the three of them go on vacation at sea, they will naturally talk about business matters.

But most of the time it was Xu Bo who was talking, while Pang Weidong seemed to be more silent. There was no reason, it was just that Xu Bo had a deeper understanding of the emerging industry, while Pang Weidong had a shallower understanding. (End of this chapter)
