Gao Ming sighed, feeling that it was a little unlucky.
Why was it targeted by Tengda and Boss Pei?
Many domestic internet companies were living in fear every day, afraid that they would be targeted by Tengda.
That was because once they were targeted by Tengda, they would not feel good no matter if they were big or small!
What was even more ridiculous was that Tengda's ambitions had been completely revealed. In the past, it had only been doing crossover in the field of gaming peripherals. It had been doing internet cafes, e-sports, and the like. It did not look like it was in direct competition or conflict with many internet giants.
However, it was different now. The dagger had been revealed!
Tengda's strategy had completely changed. It had started from the game and had begun to affect reality!
The two games, Real Estate Agent Simulator and Safe and Civilized Driving, were basically equivalent to a showdown.
The key was that many of the seemingly powerful giant companies had suddenly become so vulnerable that they had no way to fight back!
"Boss Pei is really a scary person …"
Gao Ming could not help but feel emotional. Going against Boss Pei was like a nightmare.
That was because you never knew what move he would make next!
This matter seemed to have nothing to do with Boss Pei. After all, Slow Movement Workspace was only a VR game company that Tengda and Shenhua had invested in. It was operated independently, and Sloth Apartments was only a sub-brand under Tengda. It basically had its own development plan.
However, how could the change in Sloth Apartments' model and the use of games to affect reality be unrelated to Boss Pei?
Gao Ming would never believe that this was not Boss Pei's intention!
However, there was nothing it could do even if it knew. Boss Pei was too strong. It was fine if he did not make a move, but once he did, he would definitely win. The other companies could only lie flat when they encountered such a situation.
Of course, lying flat was only for Sloth Apartments. They had to attack the other companies even harder!
After thinking hard, Gao Ming also provided a countermeasure to the upper echelons.
Sloth Apartments was coming in aggressively. With Shenhua Real Estate and Real Estate Agent Simulator, it was impossible for them to turn the tables in the short term. If Sloth Apartments was allowed to continuously snatch away the high-end market that belonged to Home Corporation, their market share and profits would definitely decrease, and their stock prices would also fall …
That was definitely unacceptable.
Therefore, Gao Ming thought of a way, which was to snatch the business of other small intermediaries!
Although Home Group was currently the largest rental platform in the country, its market share was only more than 60%. There were other rental brands and countless small intermediaries in the market.
These people also had a lot of customers and houses in their hands.
For Home Corporation, they probably could not beat Sloth Apartments in the high-end market. They could not go up, but they could go down.
As long as they could squeeze out these small intermediary companies, their market share and profits would be stabilized!
Of course, this could only be said to be a last resort. Once the strategic focus was adjusted downwards, the gap and reputation between the two companies in the high-end market would only widen as Sloth Apartments dug deep into the high-end market. There would probably be no possibility of a comeback in the future.
However, there was no other way. Home Group did not have a better choice.
Should they compete with Sloth Apartments in the high-end market now and then do nothing, causing the market share and stock price to continue to fall, giving those small intermediary companies the opportunity to take advantage of the loophole? Or should he give up on fighting Sloth Apartments and snatch those small intermediaries to maintain his market share and share price?
This was a difficult choice, but after such a long time of struggle, Home Corporation had already realized that the former was impossible. They could only choose the latter.
If nothing went wrong, Gao Ming's plan should be passed very soon.
"Ai, how good would it be if there was no Boss Pei in this world …"
Gao Ming felt that there should be many bosses of companies who thought the same as it.
…
At the same time, the 'originator' of everything, Pei Qian, was at home trying to resist the temptation of the big television while continuing to think about his graduation thesis.
On weekdays, he would go to the office to write his thesis, which was slightly more efficient.
However, there was no other way. Today was the weekend, and the office was not open.
Although Pei Qian could enter and exit at will, as a boss, he could not give this bad idea to his employees!
Then, everyone would see that Boss Pei was working overtime. Things would change! Something big would happen if they all came to work overtime.
"F * ck! I can't concentrate on the weekend at all! "
Pei Qian struggled for a while but still gave up helplessly.
He would think about the thesis on Monday.
However, he did not succumb to the temptation of the big television and game console. He began to think about arranging something meaningful for this weekend. For example, he could roughly finalize the zoo that he had been dragging on for a long time.
In fact, he had been investigating the candidate for the zoo director for some time. He had also received many suggestions from Liang Qingfan regarding the location and structure of the zoo.
However, Pei Qian had not really made a decision because he had been busy writing his thesis on weekdays.
It was the weekend now, and he was not in the mood to write his thesis. He might as well take two days to quickly finalize the zoo so that he would not keep thinking about it.
After all, the zoo project was the most important thing to spend money on.
After lunch, Little Sun brought Pei Qian to a private zoo in a county-level city near Jingzhou.
There was nothing special about this private zoo. The reason why Pei Qian came all the way here was mainly to check out the zoo director.
After more than an hour of driving, they finally arrived.
"Boss Pei, we're here," Little Sun said.
Pei Qian had already slept in the car twice before he turned to look out of the window.
This place was much more desolate than he had imagined.
Of course, it was not appropriate to say that it was desolate. This place looked like the suburbs of a very ordinary county. It was not deserted, and there was a small market nearby. There was still some liveliness.
Pei Qian felt that this place was desolate mainly because he had a preconceived impression of it.
Before this, he had heard that this was a private zoo run by a retired soldier. He had thought that even if it was worse than the small zoos in small cities, it should not be that bad, right?
Now, it seemed like he was still lacking in imagination.
The entrance to the zoo was rather simple. There was not even a gate. There was a wooden table on three or four cement steps. There was a handwritten sign on the table. It said that the original ticket was 20 yuan, and children were half-price, 10 yuan. On the outer walls on both sides of the entrance, there was a faded animal poster. On the other side, there were some things to take note of after entering.
The white wall had peeled off, revealing the cement pillars on one side. The other side was also mottled. It looked like it had been there for twenty to thirty years.
This was also consistent with the information that Pei Qian had gathered: this private zoo was founded by a retired soldier called Tan Yingjiu around 79. It had been thirty years since then.
A man who looked to be in his thirties sat behind the sign. When he saw Pei Qian and Little Sun, he quickly stood up. "Hello, are you Boss Pei? I am Tan Xinzhang. The director, Tan Yingjiu, is my father. "
Tengda had already sent people over when they were looking for candidates. Little Sun had specially called before he came today. That was why Tan Xinzhang was waiting outside.
Tan Xinzhang did not expect Boss Pei to come personally.
When Tengda's employees came to understand the situation, they had only asked casually. They did not explain their specific intentions. Tan Xinzhang felt that a huge company like Tengda would have nothing to do with a small zoo like his own.
At most, they would organize a few employees to come and visit. That was already a huge support.
Thus, Tan Xinzhang did not take it to heart at all.
It was only when Little Sun called today that Tan Xinzhang knew that Boss Pei was coming.
Pei Qian shook hands with Tan Xinzhang and sized him up.
Yes, he was burly and strong. He must have done a lot of work in this zoo.
If something really happened, it should not be difficult for him to suppress ordinary animals.
"Boss Pei, please come in. Our zoo is very simple. Please forgive us. "
Tan Xinzhang led Pei Qian and Little Sun in. As they walked, he introduced the history of this private zoo.
"My father was a soldier when he was young. He left the military in 79 and was originally arranged to work in a movie theater. However, he did not really like that kind of work. In his words, he often remembered the instructions of the senior officer in the army: 'When you return to your hometown, you have to do something meaningful for the local people.
"My father then thought, 'What is meaningful?'
"We are just a small county. There are less than fifty thousand people in the entire city. It is closed and backward, and there are no zoos. Apart from domestic animals like cats and dogs, the citizens have never seen or recognized any wild animals.
"So, my father came up with the idea of building a zoo. At first, he simply hoped that the people in our county could observe and understand wild animals up close, so that those who liked to eat wild animals would kill less wild animals. He felt that this was something meaningful."
"Then, my father tried it. He used the empty space to exhibit a small number of wild animals, and it was warmly welcomed. Thus, in 1988, my father personally paid for it and set up a formal private zoo in this place. It has been in business for thirty years.
"At the moment, there are basically more than twenty types of animals in my zoo. For example, there are wild animals like pythons, black bears, crocodiles, and macaques. There are also relatively common animals like Tibetan mastiffs, mules, and horses.
"When it was the most popular, I even kept lions and ostriches. However, there were fewer and fewer people, and the expenses increased. I had no choice but to move them to Jingzhou Zoo.
"Now, the only animals that are still kept are pythons, crocodiles, and macaques, which are relatively easy to keep."
Tan Xinzhang introduced the zoo as he brought Pei Qian to see the animals.
Although Pei Qian had mentally prepared himself before coming, he was still a little shocked when he saw the conditions here.
The so-called animal pens were just a few small bungalows. Some of them had fences, while others had glass. Wild animals such as pythons and macaques were kept in the houses. Animals such as Tibetan mastiffs and horses were kept outdoors.
An old man in his seventies with white hair and a hunched back was seriously feeding the animals and cleaning.
