The richest man Yang Fei

In the past five or six years, the stock markets in western countries have seen rapid growth in market capitalization driven by the Internet sector and related fields.

The mentality of "profit growth" and the invincible atmosphere of the "new economy" in the West have caused some companies to spend a lot of money internally, such as carefully customizing commercial facilities and providing luxury vacations for employees.Executives and employees, paid in stock options instead of cash, became instant millionaires when the company IPOed; and many invested their new wealth in more dot-coms.

All cities in the United States are building networked office spaces to attract Internet entrepreneurs, and they are all seeking to become "the next Silicon Valley."

Communications providers, convinced that the economy of the future will require ubiquitous broadband connectivity, are piling up debt to buy high-speed equipment and build fiber-optic lines to optimize their networks.

Companies that make networking gear, like Cisco, profit handsomely from it.

Similarly, in Europe, mobile operators in countries like Germany, Italy and the UK have spent huge amounts of cash buying 3G licenses, leaving them heavily indebted.Investing well in excess of its current and projected cash flow.

Due to the highly interconnected nature of the IT industry, this quickly led to problems for smaller companies relying on carrier contracts.

In 2001, it was the year when the Internet was in mourning.

Thomas was able to go against the current, optimistic about Yang Fei's online shopping mall, and even proposed to buy shares, which surprised Yang Fei.

During this extraordinary period, Thomas thought that as long as he proposed to buy shares, Yang Fei would definitely agree.

After all, in the current Internet industry, it is very difficult for you to raise funds.

However, he underestimated Yang Fei.

Chapter 2018 There must be something good!

Thomas proposed to take a stake in Yang Fei's beautiful online shopping mall.

Yang Fei flatly refused.

If Meili Group wants to raise funds, where can it be your turn?

Chen Shaohua, Gao Yi, Wang Lei!

Who doesn't want to eat this piece of meat?

Yang Fei smiled and rejected Thomas' cooperation.

Elaine reminded Yang Fei: "We want to invest [-] million US dollars! Mr. Yang, are you sure you want to refuse?"

Yang Fei said lightly: "Don't say 50 million, even [-] billion, I don't want it either. I must hold the controlling stake of Meili Group in my own hands."

Elaine said: "We invested 40.00 million U.S. dollars, only accounting for [-]% of your shares, and the controlling stake is still in your hands."

Yang Fei couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

Is half a billion dollars a lot?

Indeed a lot.

40 billion RMB!

What the other party wants to invest in is only the online shopping mall under the Meili Group!

When Yang Fei became the richest man, the outside world's valuation of his assets was only more than 100 billion.

Shas Company directly offered 40 billion RMB to become a shareholder of the beautiful online shopping mall, and they only accounted for 49% of the shares, which can be said to be very generous.

However, Yang Fei still refused.

This made Thomas and Elaine quite depressed.

Yang Fei smiled and said: "Mr. Thomas, Ms. Elaine, it is possible for you to join Meili Mall, but it is not necessary to become a shareholder. Your products can be listed on our online mall. We will sell and deliver them to your door. But I want a more favorable wholesale price. Everyone is in the same industry, and I know exactly how much your products cost. What do you think?"

Thomas lowered his head and discussed with Elaine.

Yang Fei insisted not to let them buy shares, and they had no choice but to agree with Yang Fei's suggestion.

Elaine said: "Mr. Yang, why do you reject us so much? This is the most common method of financing, and it is also the best method. The price we offered is really not low."

Yang Fei nodded and said: "Indeed, you are offering 49 million U.S. dollars for only [-] shares of Meili Online Mall, which is indeed generous. It's not that I don't know the benefits of financing. However, partnership business is not so easy to do, especially It's a partnership with a foreigner."

Thomas exchanged glances with Elaine again, and continued to listen to Yang Fei.

Yang Feidao: "The two of us have great differences in the operation, management, sales, product research and development, formula, and craftsmanship of the enterprise. These differences can be tolerated and understood on the alliance partners, but on the partnership body, it will become a ticking time bomb. For the sake of a long-term and stable cooperative relationship in the future, it is better for us to keep an appropriate distance."

Thomas nodded and said, "OK, I understand. We respect Mr. Yang's idea. But we hope that we can also carry out offline cooperation while cooperating on Meili Online Mall."

Yang Fei said: "Of course, in what areas will we cooperate?"

Elaine smiled and said, "After I came to Shanghai, I specially spent a day to go shopping in Meili Shopping Mall. It is a very good department store, even better than Wal-Mart!"

Yang Fei said, "Thank you for the compliment."

Elaine said: "Wal-mart's shelves give people a messy feeling overall, but your shelves are very neatly placed, looking tidy and generous, with higher grades. But the prices of your products can be compared with Walmart is flat or even lower. That's very rare."

Yang Fei said: "We have been working hard. Our goal is to try our best to satisfy every customer."

Elaine said: "However, I'm sorry to find that your mall doesn't sell any products from our Shas Company."

Yang Fei laughed and said, "I don't think I need to answer this question anymore, right? Before Mr. Thomas officially visited me, Meili Group and Shas Company belonged to two incompatible companies. Maybe sell each other's goods?"

Elaine said: "So, we hope that your offline shopping malls will also be able to sell our products in the future."

Yang Fei nodded and said: "Of course. From the day we signed the contract, all the shopping malls of Meili Group will put your products on the shelves. I will give you as much as the entry price for other suppliers, and I will never charge more It’s a penny. As for the display and display counters of the goods, those who pay the highest price win. If you can afford the price, you can also put the best shelves.”

Elaine said: "Okay, thank you Mr. Yang."

Yang Fei said: "I hope that your factories in our country can purchase daily chemical raw materials from our Meili Group. I can do what others can offer you, or even lower. Miss Elaine, since our two families want to To reach a cooperation alliance, you must show sincerity, support each other, promote each other, and develop each other. Your support for our raw materials is also your support for our entire alliance relationship."

Elaine and Thomas had a low-pitched conversation, and then answered Yang Fei: "Mr. Yang, regarding the supply of raw materials, we are of course willing to purchase from your group, but we have stable suppliers now, and we have also signed contracts that are too low. Price supply agreement. However, we don’t mind having one more supplier, we will share some raw materials and purchase from your group. We can gradually increase the purchase volume in the future.”

Yang Fei knows that it is impossible for the other party to buy too much from you all at once.

Although the two companies have cooperated, there is still a competitive relationship. It is impossible for the other party to control the lifeblood of raw material supply by Yang Fei.

If that's the case, Shas Company will be under the control of Yang Fei.

On the other hand, Sars is a large international company. They need to consider everything and balance their interests. They cannot only focus on the Chinese market, offend suppliers from other countries, and cause unnecessary disputes.

Therefore, Yang Fei is still satisfied with Yi Lian's answer.

As long as the other party agrees to purchase, Yang Fei will have business to do.

In the future, we will rely on quality and price to impress the other party and let the other party buy more.

If your raw materials have no advantages in terms of quality and price, the other party will switch to other suppliers even if they buy a large batch for the first time because of your face and find it difficult to use.

As long as he can open the door for the other party to purchase goods from Meili Group, things will be easy in the future.
