Volume 7 I've Been Here Chapter 0978 Sweeping the Enemy
"Yes, you can go directly to Xin Guangyin's principal Yu Dongfang tomorrow. I will give him a call."
"Okay, I'll be there tomorrow morning."
Nan Yi picked up a dried fruit and threw it into his mouth, then looked at Wang Zhen, "Brother Wang, how are the sales of Pulsar in Southeast Asia?"
Wang Zhen said comfortably: "Sales are very good, especially in Vietnam. Pulsar accounts for 22.5% of the total market sales. Only Honda and Yamaha rank ahead, and Suzuki ranks behind Pulsar. It's a pity that the goods are all shipped from Mumbai. It would be better if they were shipped from China. The Vietnamese dong is also foreign exchange."
"Does Shancheng Machine Tool Factory also have this idea?"
"Tang Jiangjin had the idea of selling Happiness Brand directly to Vietnam, but for some reason, nothing happened afterwards."
Nan Yi nodded, "Brother Wang, is there any news that your Huazhong Trade will be cancelled?"
"Huazhong Trade has been operating well, how could it be cancelled?" Wang Zhen denied.
"Okay, I'm going to Fengtian soon. I don't know how long I'll be gone, maybe two months. When I come back, we can talk about motorcycles in detail."
Nan Yi has the idea of creating another motorcycle brand besides Pulsar, with the factory set up in China, attracting China Central Trade and the Vietnamese military as shareholders, and directly targeting the Southeast Asian market, mainly Vietnam.
Deepak has already expressed to Nan Yi his intention to kick Shancheng Machine Tool Factory out, and there are no complicated political factors involved. It is simply out of dissatisfaction with Shancheng Machine Tool Factory as a shareholder, or there is a conflict in business philosophy.
Shancheng Machine Tool Factory was too anxious and wanted to get the most dividends in the shortest time, so it proposed the idea of small profits but quick turnover. Deepak naturally disagreed, and Nan Yi would not agree either. Once the price was lowered, it would be difficult to raise it again. Moreover, small profits but quick turnover does not just mean adding a little less profit, but also reducing costs.
The only way to reduce costs is to make adjustments to labor costs and spare parts costs. None of these two items can be changed. If one is changed, the quality of the motorcycle will not be guaranteed. If the quality is not good, the brand reputation will be gone, and within a few years, the company will be gone.
"About what?"
"Set up a new stall."
"Is it suitable?" Wang Zhen was very tempted.
"It's not suitable. I'm so poor that I'm planning to go to Vietnam to attract investment." Nan Yi said with a smile.
Wang Zhen thought for a moment, "Should we get the motorcycle factory to invest in us?"
"Not this time. It's not a good thing to have too many people making decisions. Just buy a factory directly."
"Okay, I'll look for acquisition targets."
When the conversation between Nan Yi and Wang Zhen came to an end, there was a knock on the door of the box. Before anyone could say anything, the door was pushed open and a plump woman walked in.
Nan Yi raised his head and glanced at the woman, and instantly gave an evaluation - a very feminine woman.
Charming but not coquettish, everything is just right, nothing can be added or subtracted.
To put it in a more obscene way, the woman in front of him was fully capable of sucking three powerful kung fu superstars into hunchbacks.
The woman was holding a tray in her hand, swaying her slender waist, and walked to the side of the tea table in a coquettish but not coquettish manner. "Brother Wang, why didn't you call me before you came? I have some newly arrived mulberries. Come and try them."
The woman spoke politely, but there was not a hint of flattery in her tone.
"You can see that there are friends here. Ah Jing, let me introduce you. This is Nan Yi and this is Zhang Yiming."
When the woman named Ajing heard Nan Yi's name, her eyes immediately crawled over his face. Then, she smiled sweetly, "Brother Nan, I have heard of your great name for a long time."
"Hello, Madam Boss Ajing."
"The capital is big and it's not easy to live here. Brother Nan, please come and visit us often and take care of my sister's business."
As soon as Nan Yi heard the word "sister", he knew that the girl in front of him was just a "smart" fox. She acted as her sister from the beginning, so it would be easy for her to ask for help in the future. As her brother, it would be difficult for him to refuse.
"As long as I have free time, I will come here often."
"Thank you, Brother Wang, Brother Nan, and Mr. Zhang. I won't disturb you all. I'll leave first." A Jing apologized and walked out of the box slowly.
"Brother Wang, are you driving?" Nan Yi asked after the door of the box closed again.
"Are you leaving now?"
"Well, I have to go out again soon. I have to make the most of my time to accompany Liu Zhen. Brother Wang, if you haven't seen enough of my face, let's have lunch together tomorrow at noon and you can look at me while you eat."
"Go away." Wang Zhen spat and said, "You go first, we'll sit for a while."
Nan Yi stood up, said goodbye to Zhang Yiming, and left.
"Brother Wang, this Brother Nan is really extraordinary. He hit the nail on the head with one sentence, but he only said half of what he said, which is a bit boring."
"Don't you understand what he means?" Wang Zhen said lightly.
Zhang Yiming curled his lips, "I understand, of course I understand, he's waiting for me to make up the other half."
"Now that you understand, what else do you have to complain about? The good ways you are holding back on are nothing to Nan Yi. Let me ask you, when did the country open up the driving school loophole?"
"In 1988, the driving test was assigned to the traffic police department, and the loopholes for driver's licenses were opened up. With some connections, you could open a driving school that year, but it couldn't be put on the table. In 1993, driver training and testing began to be separated. The transportation department was responsible for training industry management, while the public security department was responsible for .
In those days, there were driving schools sponsored by the traffic police, social training classes approved by the traffic police, training classes run by colleges and universities, and existing social training classes or driving schools. There were no formal driving schools, and they were all unconventional. "
"A long time ago, in 1986 or 1987, I forgot, a few of us were drinking tea and chatting, and we talked about what kind of business was good to do. Others mentioned the outlets they were familiar with, or some approval documents. Only Nan Yi casually mentioned it and threw out a few good businesses."
Zhang Yiming asked anxiously: "Brother Wang, what is it? Tell me quickly."
Wang Zhen glanced at Zhang Yiming and said calmly: "The first one is the gas station. Nan Yi had already foreseen that there would be more and more private cars in the country. Today, in less than ten years, everyone can see how much the number of private cars in the country has increased.
Moreover, he also mentioned that oil is a strategic resource for our country. If we open it up now, there is a high possibility that the door will be closed in the future. In the market economy, it is impossible to shut down private gas stations with just a piece of paper. Sooner or later, state-owned oil companies will step forward to acquire them.
It is hard to say whether the acquisition will happen or not, but it is estimated that there is a great possibility that it will come true.
For the second coal mine, Nan Yi started by talking about the potential of domestic hydropower generation, and concluded that hydropower generation was not enough, and that the country would vigorously develop nuclear power and thermal power. He also said that nuclear power had great constraints, and the development of thermal power was the easiest. The demand for power coal would increase exponentially, and the development of industry would require a large amount of coal, so the price of coal would definitely rise.
I won’t list the other things one by one. I will only tell you that what he said back then has now become reality, but as far as I know, he has not done any of the good businesses he talked about.
In the first month of the year before last, when he came to my house to pay New Year's greetings, I remembered this and asked him about it. Guess what he told me? "
Zhang Yiming: "What did you say?"
Wang Zhen took a sip of tea and said slowly, "Gas stations make money, but oil is hard to get. When competition becomes fierce, some people will think of smuggling. There are only a few places near the sea that are familiar with smuggling. The easiest place to get the duty-free red oil from Xiangkeng is the one that can be brought to the mainland. Sooner or later, a big boss of smuggling red oil will emerge in Guangdong and Fujian. If I want to eat, I have to eat the fat ones. Even if I don't want to get involved in trouble, trouble will come to me.
Last year, what Nan Yi said came true. With a little research, you will find that most of the ten gas stations outside are run by people from Hu Jian. The oil in their gas stations is cheap and the quality is good. The big boss of oil smuggling that Nan Yi mentioned is most likely in Hu Jian.
Speaking of coal, miners go down into the mines all day long, and there are landslides, gas explosions, and all kinds of dangers that can happen. The coal mines that the state is willing to allow private mining are not rich mines. Even if all safety measures are in place, it will take several years to recoup the investment. Instead of mining, it is better to make money by selling fruit.
If you don’t take safety measures , you will be like an executioner and the coal you dig out will smell of blood.
There is one thing that Nan Yi didn't say, but I can guess that he doesn't touch coal mines because he thinks it's troublesome. If he doesn't want to violate the rules, he needs to deal with too many places. "
Wang Zhen paused and continued, "Yiming, Nan Yi could have predicted that there would be more and more private cars. Do you think he would not have thought that you would need a driver's license to drive? Would he not have seen that the driving school business could be done?
In 1984, he was able to build up Asia, taking care of all aspects of the relationship and using various novel business methods that were simply astonishing. Haidian District only gave up a piece of land, but brought back a golden baby.
In the beginning, it was the affordable housing, and later on, it was the welfare housing. All of the Haidian District Government and other units in the district benefited from it. Although the matter was not handled by Nan Yi himself, the plan had already been decided by him that year. Even the land was obtained by him early on. He left Yaqing Company only after he had done a lot of favors.
Doing all the hard work and leaving the credit to others, do you think Nan Yi is stupid and can't understand the truth?"
"Brother Wang, after hearing what you said, Brother Nan is a smart man. How could he not understand?" Zhang Yiming said sincerely convinced.
"It's good that you understand. I didn't say it in vain. If you want to borrow money, you can continue to borrow. I will only charge you 500,000 interest for two years. This is a big favor. If you want to cooperate, then cooperate well. Nan Yi will definitely calculate how much you should get, and you won't get a penny less. Don't think of any bad ideas. Nan Yi is a person who will not take advantage of others, but he will not suffer any loss either."
Zhang Yiming patted his chest and said, "Brother Wang, what do you think of me? Everyone knows that I, Zhang Yiming, am famous for my loyalty."
"I don't doubt your character, I'm just giving you a reminder."
…
"What kind of knife is it?"
Nan Yi walked to the gate and heard Liu Zhen's voice, and responded: "Golden Wire Large Ring Knife."
"What kind of sword is it?"
"The sword that can block the moon and shame the light." Nan Yi walked to the sofa and sat down next to Liu Zhen.
"What kind of move is it?"
"Heaven and Earth Yin and Yang Move."
“What kind of person is he?”
"A person who can climb walls and fly over rooftops."
"What kind of love is it?"
"Handsome guy loves scabies, hahaha..."
Liu Zhen glared at Nan Yi and said, "You must have done this on purpose. Why did you come back so early? I thought you would come back in the middle of the night."
"I just came back after discussing business. Why did you say this? Has the TV series been aired yet?"
"I just saw the trailer, how come you can do it too?"
"This TV series was finished last year. We wanted to send it to the imperial TV station for broadcast, but it was confiscated. I heard about this and even watched some of the opening credits."
“Does it look good?”
"What I saw was okay. You'll be in for a treat this year. There will be a lot of good dramas on air, enough to keep you watching until the end of the year."
"What dramas are there?"
"That's a lot. Just wait and see. It won't be interesting if I tell you. By the way, home theater technology is advanced enough. Do you want to install one at home?"
"Where can we put him? There's no room left at home." Liu Zhen looked around and said.
Nan Yi smacked his lips, "Yeah, never mind, I'll think about it carefully when I get back, and I'll definitely build a temple for you in a snail shell."
"Um."
The clock at the age of thirty-three ticks faster than that at the age of eighteen. The presence of minutes and seconds becomes less noticeable, and the starting point is half an hour.
At night, I get off work on time.
The next day, Saturday.
In the morning, Nan Yi accompanied Liu Zhen to the house she was assigned. The two of them wore newspaper boat hats and cleaned the lime spots on the windows, wall corners, and terrazzo floors one by one. They also brushed the bathroom inside and out, almost scraping off a layer of it.
After the two were exhausted and had cleaned up the house, they turned off the power and closed the door. The house was just left there. There was no plan to renovate it, let alone live in it. They would just come and ventilate the house every once in a while.
The house has an area of 84 square meters, a good layout, and a better location. It has property rights, and it is an unfinished house that has never been lived in. It will definitely be able to be sold at a high price in the future. This is an asset that Liu Zhen can openly display, and it is of great significance.
In the afternoon, before Zhang Yiming showed up, Huang Saner came to the door first.
As soon as Huang Saner sat down, he said excitedly: "Master Nan, my bowling alley will be open in another month."
"So fast? You won't ask the decorators to work overtime 24 hours a day, right?"
"The contractor gets paid the sooner the work is done. The workers live on the construction site and start working as soon as they get up. They are very quick."
"Oh, how's New Time?"
"Old Yu is cleaning out his relatives and the problem will be solved soon." Huang Saner said happily.
"That's good. You, I've prepared a killer move for you. Next time you encounter something unpleasant, just flip the table. You don't have to interfere in daily management and business, but you can't let Yu Dongfang forget that you are a major shareholder."
Nan Yi used the fruit knife to cut the apple stem, handed the peeled apple to Huang Saner, took a piece of paper, wiped his hands, and said, "I looked at the copy of Xin Guangyin's account book a few days ago. There are many unclear expenses on it. The amount is not much, only about 100,000 yuan. There is nothing wrong with it later, so it's over. If there is any more dirty things, I will punish them. If they don't go to jail for a few years, they will be punished.
Don't speak easily, and when you speak, hit the nail on the head. Times have changed. People can only see their own visible hardship, but not the invisible efforts of others. It's easier for them to forget how they managed to survive yesterday and get to today. "
"Master Nan, I think Yu Dongfang is an okay person, but his relatives are difficult to deal with. Things should get better in the future."
"If New Times wants to develop further, it must absorb external talents and reward meritorious officials. Huang Saner, you are very conspicuous in here. Sooner or later, talents and meritorious officials will have a thought in their minds: What can this idle person do here?"
"Uncle Nan, what do you think? Let's get someone who can work to stay in here?" Huang Saner took a bite of the apple in frustration.
Nan Yi laughed and said, "Forget it. When you get bored again after the beating, just tell Yu Dongfang when Xin Guang Yin will be listed. Once the freeze period is over, we will cash out and leave."
"That's it, nothing else?"
"That's it. Let Yu Dongfang think about the rest and come talk to me."
"Okay, I'll remember that."
Nan Yi also peeled an apple for himself. After taking a bite and chewing it clean, he changed the subject and asked, "When are you going to buy four wheels?"
"I have no plans. Riding a motorcycle is nice."
"It was almost eleven o'clock last night when several motorcycles drove by here. From the noise, they were going at least ninety miles per hour. My left hand and my right hand made a bet. My left hand guessed that those guys could still live for three months, while my right hand guessed that they would be paralyzed. Huang Saner, you should join in the fun too. The stakes are high."
"Uncle Nan, I just like riding, not racing. The fastest I can go is 70. It's okay."
"Well, I can only hope that you don't fall even once."
This was the seventh time Nan Yi had mentioned the motorcycle issue. Since he couldn't persuade him, he didn't plan to do it anymore. Riding a motorcycle didn't necessarily mean falling, so he just considered it as Huang Saner's great fortune.
Perhaps because Nan Yi mentioned the motorcycle, nails grew under Huang Saner's chair. After sitting for a while, she laughed and left.
Just after Huang Saner left, Zhang Yiming called. Nan Yi met with him and asked him to develop a set of driving school regulations based on the item "students give scores to teachers" that the other party had obtained. Then he gave him Zhao Jinshui's contact information.
After meeting Zhang Yiming, Nan Yi asked Huzai to drive the car to a secluded place and made a phone call to Zhao Jinshui.
"Golden water."
"Nansheng."
"I have a new project..." Nan Yi briefly introduced the driving school. "In addition to the business of the driving school itself, we also need to pay attention to acquiring land in some cities. You don't have to hide it from Zhang Yiming when you are doing it. Tell him the truth. If he is willing, he can follow me. If not, we can separate this area."
"Nansheng, should I do this myself?"
"No, I plan to change the nature of Yiwan International and transfer my shares to Snow Mountain Trust. Your status will also change. I plan to make you the deputy head of Snow Mountain Trust. Therefore, the driving school project will be invested by Snow Mountain Trust."
The other end of the phone suddenly became quiet, with no noise to be heard. It was obvious that Zhao Jinshui covered the microphone.
Nan Yi smiled and waited quietly for Zhao Jinshui to come out of his ecstasy.
About twenty seconds later, Zhao Jinshui's voice came from the phone again, "Nansheng, thank you."
"What is there to thank you for? It's time to get down to business."
"Okay, Nansheng, in addition to Billion International, I also manage some of your small investments outside, such as the Wuzhishan Rice Wine Factory. How should these be handled?"
"Does Chen Wenqin still remember?"
Zhao Jinshui thought about it and said, "Mrs. Chen's daughter?"
"Yes, she will take over your shift. She will come to Coconut City to find you in the next two days. You two can hand over the work."
Zhao Jinshui: "Well... Nansheng, there is something I want to say but I don't know whether I should say it or not."
"explain."
Zhao Jinshui: "I was the one who arranged her job in the first place, and I felt that her ability was not good enough."
"I know that her ability is not good enough, but she is reliable. She should stay by my side as a close friend, and I will arrange a capable person to assist her. In the future, I will not make too many big investments myself. I will mainly play with small investments. As for Snow Mountain Trust, you have to work harder. I don't have time for this for the time being. We can sit down and talk about the shares later."
"Nansheng, I'm not in a hurry."
"Yeah, that's it."
"Wait, Nansheng..."
"What's going on today? Just say it if you have something to say." Nan Yi frowned.
Zhao Jinshui swallowed his saliva and said, "Nansheng, you won't forget that there is another Su Meng in Coconut City, right?"
"I haven't forgotten." Nan Yi's eyebrows formed wavy lines. "Jinshui, your reminder makes me feel like a nobody. I will take some time in the second half of the year to live in Coconut City and have a good chat with her. You didn't mention her before, but you suddenly mention her now. Did something happen?"
"Su Meng came to me a few days ago and told me that a man was pursuing her. I checked and it didn't seem to be the case, so I didn't inform you, Nansheng."
Nan Yi smiled bitterly and said, "I see. This is asking you to send me a signal. Go over there and tell her to take out my clothes, wash them, and dry them. I'll wear them when I get over there."
"OK."
After hanging up the phone, Nan Yi put Su Meng's worries aside and said to the tiger cub in the driver's seat: "Tiger cub, how long has this car been driven?"
"In nine years, the interior and exterior have been changed three times."
"Next time I'll just change the car. It's been a long time, and it's time to give it a rest. I'll change it to a car that costs less than 200,000 yuan. When it's inconvenient for you to follow me, I'll drive it myself."
"Nansheng, your driving data is still from four years ago. Do you want to ask someone to come over and retest it?"
The driving data is a data table compiled based on Nan Yi's driving habits. The car is modified based on this data to make it drive more in line with Nan Yi's habits, and certain areas are also reinforced.
"Don't bother. I'll take the test again when I go to New York."
As Nan Yi was talking, the phone rang again. After picking up the phone, Nan Yi asked the tiger cub to go to the front gate.
When they arrived at the front gate, they swept forward from the point where the house bugs first gathered. Tiger Cub drove slowly for more than a mile before Nan Yi saw Li Hai and Fang Chong standing on the side of the road.
"Boss." Fang Chong called out when Nan Yi walked up to the two of them.
"Don't call me boss. You can call me Fifth Master, Nan Batian, or Nan Yi." Nan Yi patted Fang Chong's arm and said.
When Li Hai was building the structure of the inheritance company, he naturally had to look for a person in charge of each branch. It was most appropriate for Fang Chong to be . It just so happened that this guy had not been promoted in the Housing Management Office for more than ten years, but he made a lot of money by being a real estate bug.
"Then I'll continue to call you Fifth Master." After the interlude of addressing him, Fang Chong raised his hand and pointed at a few people gathered not far away, "Fifth Master, the situation of Fang Chong'er's world has changed two years ago. Most of the old masters have retired. Now the most wild ones are those who entered the industry in the 1980s."
Nan Yi glanced in the direction Fang Chong pointed, "Last time I heard from my mom that Fang Chong'er no longer sets up stalls on the roadside, but has also set up a venue and turned it into a corporate operation."
Fang Chong spat, "What a bullshit corporate operation. It's just that the most awesome fifty or so property bugs work together, set up an office, and get a fax machine. But don't tell me, if there's a property available, they can sell it with a few phone calls. They're quite capable."
"Are the fifty house bugs you mentioned a joint venture?"
"They either join forces or exchange information. It's not like in the past when some properties were kept secret."
Nan Yi glanced at Fang Chong'er who was not far away, then turned to Li Hai and said, "The real estate agency in Beijing will register a separate company, independent of other future branches."
"Are you sure you want to recruit them?" Li Hai asked.
Nan Yi nodded, "If we recruit them, we will almost have a monopoly on the real estate agency market in Beijing. If other agencies emerge in the future, we can suppress them."
"Think about it carefully. The shares that more than fifty people have to share are not a small number."
Nan Yi chuckled, "The more people there are, the easier it is to handle. When the market is not good, they will talk about withdrawing their shares. Add a clause to the contract that they are not allowed to withdraw their shares within three years. After three years, they can withdraw their shares at will. The company has the priority right to repurchase. If we don't want the shares at the same price, they can sell them to outsiders.
If you still can't digest the methods they have in three years, then it's you and Fang Chong's incompetence."
Li Hai said calmly, "Don't try to provoke them yet. First, decide how to sign the contract and how to determine each of their shares."
"I know nothing about them, how can I answer you now?" Nan Yi spat at Li Hai, and then said to Fang Chong: "Find out the bottom, I want to know the family situation of each of these house bugs, where they live, what their ancestors did, how many people are there in the family, which one is the eldest, how many children they have, what each of them does, whether they are filial, and whether they are looking forward to the old man's death so that they can divide the family property.
Write down everything you can find and make a table. Check carefully and make the table more detailed. If you work harder now, you can save more money in the future. Don't be stingy with money. "
Fang Chong patted his chest and said, "Fifth Master, don't worry. These house bugs are frequent visitors to the Housing Management Office. As long as I go to all the Housing Management Offices in Beijing and ask around at the local police station and in the alleys, I can get a general idea. If there's anything else I'm not sure about, I'll ask someone to dig deeper and I guarantee that everything will be clear."
When Fang Chong was working at the Housing Management Office, he often dealt with housing bugs, local police officers, and neighborhood committees. With the connections he had built up over more than ten years at the grassroots level, it would not be difficult for him to find out the details of an ordinary person in Beijing.
"Okay, call me when you've found out, and I'll have someone get the information from you."
Nan Yi gave Fang Chong a few more instructions, then turned around and talked to Li Hai.
"Lao Li, wait until the real estate agency's storefront is built, and you go contact the real estate company. We want to take advantage of the old public housing and housing reform housing, and we also want to try out the sales of new real estate projects."
In the second-hand housing market here in Beijing, private houses have been secretly traded since the 1960s. More than 30 years have passed since then. Those who wanted to sell have already done so, and there are only a few houses put up for sale in a year. The mainstream transactions on the market are old public housing and housing reform housing.
It is more troublesome to deal with old public housing as there is no property ownership certificate. Strictly speaking, it is a public house. The transaction can be made but it must be approved by the Housing Authority, and the Housing Authority will also take a large portion of the profits. Therefore, 80% of the second-hand houses traded on the market now are housing reform houses.
The commercial housing and resettlement housing newly built in Beijing in recent years are either far away from the city center, which is equivalent to moving out of the urban area of Beijing and being marginalized at present; the houses with better locations and still in the city center are very expensive and are not within the reach of ordinary working-class people.
The working class who do not want to leave the city, have no hope of welfare housing distribution but want to buy a house can only consider second-hand houses. The main potential customers of new buildings are those who got rich first: actors and singers, employees of foreign companies, businessmen and wealthy people from other places.
It can be said that the second-hand housing market and new housing market in Beijing are two relatively separate and independent markets, and even the potential customer groups are different.
