"Boss Chen, I think Wing Music Home Appliances is a good choice. Their boss, Chen Xiao, is an influential figure. He is brave and smart, and has been in the home appliance industry for decades. He has a lot of experience. The only thing they lack is funding. As long as we approach them, they will definitely be interested. "
"Let me think about it."
Chen Yu did not say anything.
Could he say that Chen Xiao was so ambitious that he even tricked Guomei?
After all, this did not happen.
However, just as Chen Yu was thinking, Huang Zheng said, "Boss Chen, the chairman of Wing Music Home Appliances, Chen Xiao, wants to see you."
"Why is he here?"
Chen Yu was extremely surprised.
He was just talking about him. He did not expect Chen Xiao to come looking for him.
"See you."
Although Chen Yu did not have a good impression of Chen Xiao, since he was here, Chen Yu had no reason not to see him.
"The legendary chairman of Huanyu Technologies is indeed a young talent. Now that I've met you, you are indeed famous."
When Chen Xiao saw Chen Yu in the office, this was the first thing he said.
Chen Yu stared at Chen Xiao, but he was thinking about Chen Xiao's resume. Chen Xiao's family was poor when he was young. When he was one year old, he had poliomyelitis, and his legs became ill. When he was ten, his father passed away. Even after he became an adult, in 1993, his wife became seriously ill. However, even though Chen Xiao borrowed money for treatment, his wife still passed away. According to Chen Xiao's memories from his previous life, from then on, he swore to earn a lot of money …
In 1996, the state-owned home appliance company he worked for went bankrupt. He and 47 employees raised one million to establish Wing Music Home Appliances. With many years of experience in the home appliance industry, Wing Music Home Appliances quickly gained a foothold. In 1999, Chen Xiao changed his strategy. Wing Music Home Appliances gave up on the wholesale business and changed to a chain business. This change gave Wing Music Home Appliances a boost, and Wing Music Home Appliances improved by leaps and bounds.
As of now, the number of Wing Music Home Appliances stores exceeded 60, and its annual sales reached seven billion.
Based on this, Chen Xiao could be considered a big boss in the home appliance industry.
"Boss Chen, you're too polite. You're a senior in the business industry. You and I share the same surname, so it's not wrong for me to call you Uncle Chen."
"You're too kind, Boss Chen. If you call me Uncle Chen, I wouldn't have the heart to come here."
"By the way, Boss Chen, how did you know I was in Hang City?"
Chen Yu and Chen Xiao weren't familiar with each other, so Chen Yu wasn't that polite to Chen Xiao.
In addition, because of the Gome incident in his previous life, Chen Yu did not have a good impression of Chen Xiao.
"I called your company's headquarters in Shencheng, but the people there said that you were not in Shencheng. I guess if you are not in Shencheng, you should be in Hang City. Our Yongle is in Shanghai and is very close to Hang City. We came here to try our luck. "
"It can't be as simple as luck, right?"
"Boss Chen, you have sharp eyes. Actually, I've been paying attention to you since you were at the West Lake Sword Conference. I think the B2C model you mentioned is very good. It just so happens that Huanyu Technologies is building an electronic shopping mall, and Yongle is expanding its stores. That's why I'm here. "
"I haven't said that I'm going to work with Yongle."
Chen Yu thought to himself.
This Chen Xiao was indeed smart.
Based on what he said at the West Lake Sword Conference, Chen Xiao could guess part of his strategy.
Not many people had such foresight.
"I think your company and Yongle are a match made in heaven."
"Why?"
Chen Yu said, "Why can't we go to Gome?"
"Huang Guangyu of Gome is smart, but I don't think he'll let you touch their shares."
"Then why can't we go to Suning?"
"Suning already has the capital to get involved. Even if Boss Chen joins, you won't get many shares and have no say. At most, you can treat it as an investment. But I think Boss Chen won't just treat it as an investment. "
"So, we can only work with Yongle."
"That's right."
Chen Xiao was very confident.
"Why did Boss Chen come to us?"
Chen Xiao's face was thin, and he was wearing a pair of glasses.
He was wearing a black suit, and his face was serious. He didn't smile or get angry.
He looked very much like a villain in a TV series, and he was a big villain.
"As far as we know, several capital companies have contacted you, including Morgan Stanley."
"It seems that Boss Chen has paid attention to Yongle."
"Since you said that Huanyu Technologies is going to enter the e-commerce market, isn't it normal to cooperate with some household appliance companies like you? We're not only interested in Yongle, but also Gome, Suning, and even Dazhong. "
"I understand."
Chen Xiao continued, "Although Morgan Stanley has contacted us, we need more capital."
"Haha, does Boss Chen think that Huanyu Technologies is better than Morgan?"
Chen Yu couldn't help but laugh.
Morgan was a world-class financial giant. Not to mention Huanyu Technologies, even 1,000 Huanyu Technologies were no match for Morgan.
"Boss Chen, you must be joking. A giant like Morgan naturally doesn't lack money. But they invest in a lot of businesses, and they may not focus on us. "
"It seems that Morgan has given too little money."
Chen Yu nodded.
Morgan was certainly powerful, but their money didn't come from nowhere.
Giants like them probably invested in hundreds or thousands of projects every year.
Yongle Home Appliances was just a small business for them.
This business didn't even need the attention of the headquarters in the United States. They only needed the approval of the manager in China.
"What benefits can we get?"
Chen Yu went straight to the point.
"It seems that Boss Chen is interested."
Chen Xiao smiled and said, "We can give you 33% of our shares."
"That's very sincere."
Chen Yu nodded.
33% of the shares was enough to have a say in any company.
Not only that, but if they could take the next step, they could even become the largest shareholder.
If they did it well, they could even chase the founder away.
Of course, Chen Yu also knew that if Chen Xiao did it well, he could be chased away.
This was all business.
Chen Yu was wary of Chen Xiao. Chen Xiao was willing to give up such a large amount of shares because he was also wary of Chen Yu.
"But, what else?"
Shares alone were not enough. Chen Yu didn't just need the shares of the home appliance chain company.
"If we can reach a partnership with your company, we will sign a strategic partnership with Huanyu Technologies. Yongle will fully support Huanyu Technologies' e-commerce business."
Chen Yu nodded. "It seems that Boss Chen came prepared. Then, how much does Yongle need?"
"How much can Boss Chen give?"
Chen Xiao didn't give his own price. Instead, he looked at Chen Yu.
"You need money badly?"
"Yes."
"Does Yongle need it or do you need it?"
"Both."
Chen Xiao didn't hide his desire for money at all. "I like the enjoyment that wealth brings me. At the same time, I need money to make me richer."
"I like money too."
Chen Yu didn't consider Chen Xiao before.
Because if he worked with Chen Xiao, he had to be wary of this guy at all times.
But now, it seemed that working with Chen Xiao might not be a bad thing.
At least, in terms of ability, courage, and foresight, Chen Xiao was no worse than Huang Guangyu, Zhang Dazhong, and Zhang Jindong.
In some ways, he was even better than them.
For example, his methods.
However, now was not the time to think about these things.
Chen Xiao was in a hurry to compete with Gomei and Suning.
Chen Yu was also in a hurry to get his e-commerce website online as soon as possible.
In that case, it was fine to work with Chen Xiao for the time being.
Thinking of this, Chen Yu said, "Is one billion enough?"
