Rebirth 1990: The beginning is sweet and cool Bai Yueguang

Being indecisive will only make Zhou Qi feel unreliable.

While everyone was still hesitating, someone immediately said, "Mr. Zhou, although I don't have much money, I believe this is a good opportunity, especially Mr. Zhou's judgment. I can't go wrong if I follow you. I want eight shares."

"I want seven."

"I want eight, too."

……

Others also responded, some asked for ten copies, and the least asked for five copies.

Zhou Qi silently wrote down everyone's needs, a total of ninety-five.

This accounts for one tenth of the one thousand copies he brought back. As a preliminary intention, this result is quite satisfactory.

"Okay, ninety-five copies in total. I'll take note." Zhou Qi said with a smile, "But I have to make it clear that apart from these ninety-five copies, the others will not be sold at this price."

Everyone agreed, but they were actually a little nervous.

Most people do this mainly because they trust Zhou Qi. They do not have much confidence in the warrants themselves. After all, a hundred-fold increase sounds too incredible.

Another hour later, the dinner ended.

On the way back to Chuncheng, Jiang Jun drove and asked, "What are you going to do if the subscription certificate doesn't rise to 3,000?"

He didn't quite understand where Zhou Qi's confidence came from, nor did he know why Zhou Qi was so sure that the value of the subscription certificate could reach three thousand.

Zhou Qi smiled slightly and explained: "Whether it really rises to three thousand or not, the important thing is that I have aroused their interest in the subscription certificate, which is my purpose."

Letting them reserve some shares is equivalent to tying them to the subscription certificates, and they will pay more attention to their dynamics. If nothing unexpected happens, these people should send people to Shanghai to investigate the situation of the subscription certificates.

Until the warrant demonstrates its true value, its price will continue to rise.

Merchants are very sensitive to price changes. The higher the price, the greater their interest and the more actively they will promote the product in their social circles.

Before long, these fleets became the key to his expanding business.

In a blink of an eye, more than a week passed and SF Express completed the first round of screening for its joining fleet.

At present, there are 532 large and small fleets across the country that have joined SF Express, covering 80% of the country's delivery routes.

However, among these fleets, 53 did not meet the requirements and attempted to obtain improper benefits by falsely reporting fuel subsidies.

Although these false invoices are not completely fake, once discovered, the cooperation qualification will be immediately revoked.

Zhou Qi did not pursue compensation, but instead sent the list of problematic teams found in the review to all cooperating teams.

This move not only dealt a blow to unqualified fleets, but also enhanced SF Express's reputation in the industry, because the fleets named would hardly be able to gain a foothold in the industry again.

Since joining SF Express, the revenue of each fleet has increased significantly, because the advertising effect of SF Express has greatly improved the efficiency of vehicle utilization.

To further optimize operations, two days after announcing the list of problematic fleets, Zhou Qi proposed a new cooperation agreement that halved fuel subsidies while increasing the share of transportation profits.

The purpose of this adjustment is to gradually reduce costs and ultimately achieve partial ownership of these fleets, thereby gaining full control over the national logistics network.

This strategy needs to be implemented gradually to see how each team responds.

In about a week, the new contract had a 97% signing rate, with only about 20 teams expressing objections and apparently wanting to renegotiate the terms.

For these fleets, Zhou Qi took decisive measures and announced that fleets that did not sign the new agreement would be excluded from the SF Express freight system.

Most of these fleets are local companies with a certain influence. They thought they could use their status to gain more benefits, but they didn't expect Zhou Qi to be so decisive.

What surprised them even more was that Zhou Qi quickly found alternative fleets locally and elsewhere, and provided support and investment to help them expand and fill the gaps in the logistics network.

Zhou Qi sent a clear message to fleets across the country: SF Express Freight does not need any fleet to impose conditions, because SF Express is strong enough to cope with various challenges on its own.

In order to further consolidate SF Express's position, Zhou Qi issued another notice requiring all SF Express-related vehicles to hang a new logo. A running ant pattern drawn by Jiang Jun, plus the words "SF Express Freight", became the company's new logo.

Soon, all SF Express vehicles, regardless of where they were, were uniformly equipped with the new logo. This was not only a symbolic change, but also a symbol of SF Express's growing power and influence.

Subsequently, Zhou Qi announced a shocking plan: SF Express will provide two-thirds of the financial support to any company that has the ability to acquire other fleets. The acquired fleet will be controlled by SF Express with a 51% stake and integrated into the existing fleet system, accounting for 30% of the overall shares.

This news made the entire industry excited, because with SF Express's financial support, many fleets saw the opportunity to expand their scale.

Zhou Qi's move is not only intended to integrate the market, but also to lay out the future equity structure in advance.

With the implementation of a series of policies, SF Express Freight has risen rapidly.

Some fleets were unable to compete with SF Express in terms of business volume, so they chose to join SF Express. Although this meant switching from self-operation to being employed by others, they could continue to make profits.

As for those large fleets that still resist, they are faced with fewer and fewer orders, just like a small ant trying to shake an elephant.

Zhou Qi told those teams that had refused to sign the contract that if they continued to refuse to cooperate, their only option would be to be acquired.

This firm and tough attitude demonstrates SF Express's confidence and determination in the freight field.

The company's funds were dwindling rapidly because the amount required to acquire the fleet was huge. Even Zhou Qi, who had Xiaobawang, Pinliang Shop and entertainment companies as his backing, began to feel the pressure.

As a result, financial review procedures had to be strengthened, which meant extending acquisition timelines to allow more time for capital deployment.

Whether it is Xiaobawang or Pinliangpu, it takes time to recover funds.

Zhou Qi has always liked to use limited funds to leverage bigger projects, pursuing a sense of excitement.

One day, Lin Yifeng came to Zhou Qi's office and asked directly about taking over the second branch of the family business.

Zhou Qi did mention this matter during the Spring Festival, but because he was busy with company integration and outings, they were unable to discuss the issue in depth.

In response to Lin Yifeng's inquiry, Zhou Qi confirmed his words and emphasized that this was a decision that required careful consideration because doing business meant more effort and responsibility.
