Chapter 415: Arranging Property Purchases
Although Yang Qing gave him an explanation, Wang Lin still felt that Yang Qing was too adventurous.
However, Boss Yang had set the tone; he could only go ahead and implement.
"Boss Yang, should we go all out with acquisitions?"
Yang Qing shook his head.
"No, we will try to acquire premium properties; our funds are still limited; we want to make the most of this opportunity and raise profits as much as possible."
"Moreover, we cannot make a big show; we must be discreet, hesitant, and show fear and greed."
"Don't arouse others' suspicions."
"Many smart people; they just temporarily lack confidence."
"Once we expand recklessly, even fools will see it."
"Do you get the right balance here?"
"For Wang Lin, this is trivial; in the mall's scheming, he knows exactly how to proceed."
"Boss Yang, rest assured, I will definitely handle this; just watch."
Yang Qing nodded and reminded.
"You have one year; at the latest by 68 year, others will catch on,"
"What you can achieve during this period will determine our future influence on Gangdao."
"While acquiring properties, we must also strive to suppress property prices."
"To create panic, you don't need me to teach you on this, right?"
Wang Lin nodded.
"Understood."
Yang Qing nodded.
"All right, go execute the plan; I'll go find you funding."
Now Many Stars and Pizza Hut are his two major cash cows.
Other companies are still somewhat far from Earning Money.
Now Pizza Hut is no longer a small company; across Hong Kong they already have thirty-seven directly operated stores.
On average, each store can contribute eight hundred dollars of net profit daily; monthly net profit nears one million.
In this era, this is already an industry more profitable than gambling and prostitution.
Xu Huizhen felt that these past few months were like a dream.
Who could have thought getting rich would be this simple?
Yang Qing went to Pizza Hut and found Xu Huizhen.
"How is the International Business Department's setup?"
Xu Huizhen brought him to the HSBC Building office; inside, the office was full of busy people.
"The company has already started operating; it is currently investigating conditions in various places and selecting investment areas."
Yang Qing was a bit anxious.
"Nothing to think about; just choose places where life is good, like WanDao."
"We have some connections to these two places."
"Once these two places stabilize, we will fully develop Southeast Asia."
"After arriving there, first establish a subsidiary and operate independently."
"The model adopts both franchise and directly operated dual mode."
"Ensure that every city with a population over five hundred thousand has our directly operated flagship store."
Xu Huizhen was a bit surprised.
"Why so rushed?"
"Because our actions in Gangdao have attracted KFC's attention."
"To compete for food, they will soon enter East Asia."
Xu Huizhen felt light-headed, but quickly calmed down a lot.
"The renowned name of Yingjiang made her a bit nervous."
"Can we withstand it?"
"Even if we can't withstand it, we must."
"How are the new products coming along?"
Xu Huizhen showed a confident smile.
"Fried eggs, egg tarts, seafood pastries, roasted chicken legs, roasted chicken wings, braised meat... all are no problem."
"New products can be launched at any time."
Yang Qing became even more confident.
"Although KFC is not bad, it doesn't really suit our taste."
"In East Asia, we have a natural advantage."
"After subsidiaries in various places stabilize, we should also develop locally distinctive products."
"We need to hook the customers."
"In East Asia, he who wins the customers wins the world."
"If possible, talk to the toy factory to win over children."
Xu Huizhen seriously noted it down.
"Anything else?"
Yang Qing thought for a moment.
Find someone to talk to Wide Mouth Happy Music about strategic cooperation.
If we can win the support of Wide Mouth Happy Music, things will be much easier for us.
Xu Huizhen noted it down solemnly.
After Yang Qing left, she immediately arranged the task.
Leaving Pizza Hut, Yang Qing then rushed to Many Stars.
He Jun managed Many Stars well; in the electric heating field, he also came up with an electric griddle, a toaster, and an electric oven.
Thanks to Many Stars' brand strength and He Jun's low-price strategy, Many Stars maintained huge profitability even after electric water heater sales slumped.
(These technologies are already mature, so those living comfortably have boomed in the home appliance sector.)
Faced with Yang Qing's constant blood‑drawing, He Jun had no objections.
Every time blood was drawn, he got a share of the money—why wouldn't he do it?
Seeing Yang Qing approach, He Jun hurried forward to meet him.
Yang Qing was very pleased with Many Stars, of course, because he wanted to win people's hearts.
"He Jun, Many Stars' current achievements are thanks to you."
"So I plan to open up a 1% dividend‑paying share to you."
"Are you interested?"
"This isn't a stock‑incentive dividend share; it's a special reward for He Jun, although he has to pay for it."
"I'm interested, I'm interested, thank you, Mr. Yang."
"Now he holds 3% equity, and the annual dividend is a huge sum?"
"Many Stars' market value is definitely over 100 million, so by that calculation he's also a millionaire."
Thinking of the words of those who lured him into starting a business, He Jun snorted.
"Many Stars is now a formidable force; what could he possibly do if he left?"
"To start a company, you need a research department—how much would that cost?"
"Going to other factories, what could they offer him?"
"Could he ever encounter such a generous boss again?"
"However you calculate it, he wouldn't lose out."
"More importantly, he knows just how awesome his boss is."
"Betraying such a boss is practically suicide."
Yang Qing patted his shoulder.
"He Jun, I'm not interested in money; I'm only interested in changing the world."
"As long as Many Stars moves toward that goal, what I can give you will exceed your imagination."
He Jun was flattered and startled.
"Mr. Yang, unless the company doesn't want me, I will surely ride in your big car."
Yang Qing nodded and smiled warmly.
"I believe you."
Afterwards Yang Qing gestured for He Jun to sit down.
"I have a few ideas here—see if they work."
He Jun clearly understood his position: if the boss says do it, it must be done, and his role is to fill gaps and plug leaks.
"Mr. Yang, you said Many Stars currently needs your guidance."
Yang Qing expressed his idea.
"I think it's time for us to expand into the electrical appliance sector."
"Let's start with electric fans, then gradually develop range hoods, exhaust fans, juicers, crushers, washing machines, and ultimately we want to have the capability to manufacture refrigerators and air conditioners."
"What do you think?"
He Jun gave a thumbs up.
"Mr. Yang, your idea is great—it exactly solves our urgent problem."
"Electric fans, washing machines—these are simple; now our base in Gangdao is very solid."
"Believe that we can soon produce a finished product."
"As for refrigerators and air conditioners, Mr. Yang, do you have any pointers?"
Yang Qing felt He Jun was very interesting; from his performance, it was clear he had already thought deeply about these matters, yet now he was putting the credit on his own head.
He had no intention of claiming credit at all.
He's really sensible.
