The leisurely life of a reborn dad

"Boss Cao, what are you doing?"

Someone in the corridor called Cao Yirui again.

From here, it can be seen that Cao Yirui's reputation as a generous rich man has spread. For such a good person with a lot of money, many people like to make friends with him.

In this regard, Cao Yirui learned a lot from his father Cao Shujie.

It's a pity that the money of the rich man Cao has just been transferred out. It's useless to come and lick him now. Maybe these tens of thousands of dollars will not last until next year, and he will have to borrow from others.

Cao Yirui thought that when he borrowed money from others, there would be a few of these grandsons around him.

As soon as this idea came up, Cao Yirui's eagerness to try became stronger and stronger, and he wanted to try it now.

"Well, should I spend the remaining money before my sister distributes the dividends?" A big question mark popped up in Cao Yirui's mind.

"Boss Cao." The student in the corridor shouted again.

Cao Yirui turned around, looked at Zhu Chao who was walking over, and asked him lazily: "What's up, squad leader Zhu?"

"I'm just out for a walk, what are you looking at here?" Zhu Chao asked him.

Cao Yirui pointed to the diagonal opposite of where he was, where there was an artificial lake, and many people were playing around the lake: "I'm looking at the lake diagonally opposite our dormitory."

"Squad leader Zhu, look, many people are dating there." Cao Yirui said seriously.

Zhu Chao was also interested when he heard Cao Yirui say this: "Let me see."

"What's so good about it, squad leader Zhu, didn't you find a partner?" Cao Yirui asked him.

After hearing this, Zhu Chao said in a muffled voice: "I would like to, but I don't have money. Dating is so expensive now, so forget it, and wait until after graduation."

Cao Yirui thought to himself that you are right.

Zhu Chao asked him in return: "Boss Cao, you are so rich, why don't you find a partner?"

"My parents also told me to find a partner, and it would be best if I could bring the child back with me. They also said that we can go to school and they will help take care of the child."

"That was in the past. I am also very poor now. I only have tens of thousands of yuan left on me. I have to wait until the second year of college next year. I am nervous about eating alone. If I find another one, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?" Cao Yirui said quickly.

Zhu Chao didn't know what to say because his words were half true and half false. He thought to himself, are tens of thousands of yuan not enough?

But if you think about it carefully, these tens of thousands of yuan are a lot for him, but for Cao, the famous rich man in the class, it is really poor.

According to incomplete statistics, Cao Yirui has spent at least hundreds of thousands of yuan in the first two months of coming to school, and this is the money Cao Yirui asked his classmates to spend.

They don't know more.

"Where is your money? If you don't have money, ask your parents for it." Zhu Chao gave him advice.

Zhu Chao originally wanted to organize a class bonfire party and was thinking about asking Boss Cao for some sponsorship, but he didn't expect that Boss Cao complained about having no money before he even mentioned it.

How should he explain his idea of ​​getting sponsorship?

Zhu Chao felt bitter because his good idea was stuck in his heart and ended in vain.

…

After Cao Xuemeng got a total investment of 6 million RMB from her brother and Lei Xinyi, she didn't hesitate for a day and immediately started to work hard.

The rent of office buildings in good locations is too expensive and not cost-effective at all.

In addition, Cao Xuemeng wanted to run a design studio, but she didn't plan to make it like the Bluebird Design Studio, with a lot of people, but most of them were scheming against each other and few of them were doing real work.

According to Cao Xuemeng's plan, some departments didn't need to exist at all, and some departments only needed two or three people to support them.

In her opinion, when running a design studio, the quality of the soldiers is more important than the number. Except for the main departments such as the design department and the business department, other administrative departments with more than 5 people are a bit too many, and more than 10 people are particularly bloated, and the company is one step away from failure.

Therefore, Cao Xuemeng decided to take the elite route from the beginning. In addition, she graduated from the Central Academy of Fine Arts, and there were many brothers and sisters in the same school, so the most abundant thing was talent.

As for the office space, Cao Xuemeng thought about it and decided that the rent should not be too expensive, and the place should not be too luxurious. She should take more projects in the early stage and spread her reputation through her business ability.

When their design studio really became famous, it would not be too late to change to a better office building as the office area.

In the busyness, more than a month passed in a blink of an eye.

In this more than a month, Cao Xuemeng rented an office location, recruited the number of people according to the plan, and personally went to pull projects and started.

She found that it was really not possible to delay any longer.

Let alone other things, for example, when it comes to recruiting people in a design studio, any designer with some ability has a monthly salary of no less than 20,000 yuan, and real masters can only be hired for tens of thousands of yuan. Like when she asked for 20,000 yuan from the Blue Bird Design Studio before, it was really not a random request. She was also in a hurry to make some money at that time, to fill her own shortfall in savings first and try to survive.

It was considered selling her ability at a low price.

But Cao Xuemeng recruited people for the elites. She herself was very capable. When recruiting people, she had a very strong ability to distinguish. There was no market for those who wanted to pass themselves off as the real ones.

Cao Xuemeng would rather pay more salary than hire a few lazy people to come in for cheap.

The consequence was that she thought the 6 million investment of her brother and good sister Lei Xinyi was relatively large before, but when the entire "Three Musketeers Design Studio" was built, the salary of these people added up to hundreds of thousands a month, and Cao Xuemeng was stunned.

She didn't dare to delay any more time, so she put on a stern face and went to Xiaomi to solicit business in person.

If anyone from Xiaomi dares to let her participate in the bidding, Cao Xuemeng will directly call her Uncle Lei to let their "Three Musketeers Design Studio" operate normally first.

As for what to do next, it needs to be done step by step.

Otherwise, relying solely on the 6 million investment from her brother and good sisters, she would be sitting on nothing, and it wouldn't last long before she was gone.

However, just getting some small orders from Xiaomi is actually not enough to maintain the normal operation of the Three Musketeers design studio.

Cao Xuemeng still needs to get a few more fixed orders.

And if you want to make money from these orders, you don't even have to think about it, so Cao Xuemeng still thinks about getting a few big orders.

However, large orders require bidding, and this time the salesmen from the sales department came in handy.

Before these elites go to get orders, Cao Xuemeng held a special meeting for them and told them that as long as they can get big orders, they will be given a commission of 3% of the order amount.

Cao Xuemeng's so-called large orders are basically seven-digit order amounts, and some projects even have total annual order amounts exceeding eight figures.

But there are very few very large orders, and they basically require relationships.

"Boss, what should I do if someone cheats during the bidding?" Wen Yuzhe, a salesperson from the sales department, asked.

This is a very real problem. There are too many secretive methods in bidding.

Anyone who often bids knows that there are endless methods such as bid-rigging, tailor-made bidding documents, false bid evaluations, illegal subcontracting and subcontracting, etc., which makes many small companies with no background and no background just run with the prince, which is miserable. But there is no room to reason.

Because no one listened to their cries of injustice.

Wen Yuzhe is talking about these situations.

Cao Xuemeng did not explain to them the origin of the Three Musketeers Design Studio, and Wen Yuzhe and the others did not know what the rich background and heritage of the Three Musketeers Design Studio were.

They only know that their boss is a woman and very rich at a young age.

Except for the boss, they had not seen any man accompanying the boss in and out of the Three Musketeers design studio.

In other words, the boss is not the kind of character who relies on men to survive as they privately thought. He comes out to open a design studio for fun based on his personal hobbies to show his 'value'.

As for how the boss got the order from Xiaomi Group, they don’t know.

But they know that the boss has been placing Xiaomi orders one after another at a young age. From this point of view, the boss’s identity should not be simple.

But these are just guesses, because I don’t know much about the boss, so I don’t know what to expect.

The last thing Cao Xuemeng wants others to know is her identity.

The success of her cute princess business is all due to her own abilities!

Who do you look down on?

Cao Xuemengyun calmly raised his head, looked at Wen Yuzhe who was asking the question, and told him: "You just go and get business. Whether you can get business is up to you, but if someone is playing dirty tricks in the process of getting business, If you want to harm us, come back and tell me, and I will talk to you personally."

"Yes!" Wen Yuzhe didn't dare to ask any more questions.

To be honest, facing Cao Xuemeng's sharp eyes, Wen Yuzhe felt a little scared. He felt that this matter was really evil.

When he came to the business department, Wen Yuzhe conveyed the instructions he received from his boss to other colleagues and encouraged them.

"The boss said that we can run the business in an upright manner, but we are not good enough to take away our orders. If anyone dares to use dirty tricks to steal our orders, we will call them back directly. If you can't handle it, come back and tell the boss, and the boss will take action himself." Wen Yuzhe is like this. Said.

The others looked at each other, they always felt that Wen Yuzhe was not telling the truth.

Isn't this too arrogant?

When they went out to solicit business like this, they were just looking for a beating. They couldn't understand why the boss said such things, and they always thought it was impossible.

"Wen Yuzhe, did you hear that correctly?" Du Qiuyang, another person from the business department, asked him.

Wen Yuzhe said emphatically: "Everything I said is fucking true. That's what the boss means. If you don't believe me, just ask."

"Let's go, let's not waste time here, hurry up and talk about business and make a lot of money." Someone said.

Others responded one after another. Except for the business manager Ning Changhu, all the other salesmen in the sales department left.

The boss promised a commission of 3% of the order amount, which is equivalent to a commission of 30,000 yuan for 1 million yuan. As long as they can get a big order, they will get rich. They all want to make this money.

Because all the salesmen from the sales department who were walking around the design studio looking for people to chat with had left, the originally lively Three Musketeers design studio became quiet for a while.

It just suddenly changed from lively to quiet, and the remaining people couldn't adapt.

They wanted to be busy, but the boss had finished all the orders from Xiaomi La, and the other orders hadn't come yet. Now they were in a slack time, so they couldn't be busy even if they wanted to.

Just when they were thinking about having some fun and having fun together, the boss Cao Xuemeng came to the design department.

She smiled and said to everyone: "Hey, guys, I'm going to give you a big job. You all cheer up for me. If anyone is so stubborn again, don't blame me for killing you."

It's a pity that Cao Xuemeng didn't have the momentum to curse, and he didn't have the domineering energy when he slapped the table with Tan Borong.

Cao Xuemeng also knew this. The last time he confronted Tan Borong, it was a class struggle between them. It was life and death. Cao Xuemeng must have killed him at that time.

But now these are his senior brothers and sisters, junior brothers and sisters, and comrades who started the business together in the Three Musketeers Studio. There is no difference between the two.

After chatting with them for a while, Cao Xuemeng also went to place orders.

The key to this order is to go to Xuemeng Food Factory.

Cao Xuemeng must not be able to keep catching Xiaomi Group for profit. Even if she wants to continue to collect money, she will have to find another company.

Because of this, our Xuemeng Food Factory lined up in advance.

She has already planned to call Xuemeng Food Factory and discuss with them all the design business of Xuemeng Food Factory from now to next year.

There is a saying that goes well: Don’t let the rich water flow to outsiders’ fields.

Cao Xuemeng felt that the designers of Xuemeng Food Factory were too backward, so by leaving these design tasks to her, she was able to increase the sales of Xuemeng Food Factory by at least 10 percentage points, and also let people know that she was not a cute princess. It's not just a waste, it still has its own value.

As for the possibility that Xuemeng Food Factory would not give her an order, Cao Xuemeng did not dare to think so, unless they had eaten bear heart and leopard gallbladder, or were taking drugs.

Cao Xuemeng felt that those people would not go against their eldest princess as long as they were in their right mind.

A call was made, and the person who answered the phone was Hu Yong. Cao Xuemeng asked him directly if Xuemeng Food Factory had any outsourcing design orders recently.

"Uncle Yong, I have now established a Three Musketeers design studio, specializing in the design of various product appearances and packaging. If our factory has this business, please take more care of your niece's business." Cao Xue Meng felt that she had expressed her intention in a very tactful tone.

If Hu Yong still doesn't understand, he's a little unworthy of his position.

After hearing this, Hu Yong didn't even think about it, so he said to Cao Xuemeng: "Mengmeng, you think it's a coincidence, but there are a few orders now. I'll send you the requirements, and you can get me a design as soon as possible." ”

"Okay, Uncle Yong, I think it's a bit of a disadvantage for you to be the purchasing manager at Xuemeng Food Factory. Have you ever considered developing in other areas?" Cao Xuemeng asked him.

Hu Yong: "..."

Are you poaching people into your own company?

Since becoming the purchasing manager of Xuemeng Food Factory, Hu Yong has relied on his excellent work ability and personal qualities to become a senior purchasing manager and the first senior manager since the establishment of Xuemeng Food Factory's purchasing department.

Because of this, Hu Yong will never be a traitor.

Cao Xuemeng also knew the result, she just asked casually for fun.

Having obtained the desired result, Cao Xuemeng had no time to continue chatting with Hu Yong. She had to receive a design order from Xuemeng Food Factory.

With Xuemeng Food Factory's long-term orders as the Three Musketeers Design Studio's support, they can develop other businesses with peace of mind based on this.

In fact, Cao Xuemeng knew very well that businesses like Xiaomi Group and Xuemeng Food Factory were just an escape route for them. If they really wanted to make the design studio's business bigger and stronger, they still had to explore new business sources.

Even Cao Xuemeng himself went out to run business.

But when she went out, she also knew to take Wu Shangying with her.

People's hearts are cunning and the world is sinister.

Cao Xuemeng is not a person who is unconcerned with worldly affairs, nor does she know how complicated this society is. Because of this, she understands that it is dangerous outside.

When going out for business, letting Wu Shangying follow you can at least ensure that your personal safety will not be affected.

Cao Xuemeng felt that her mother must have had this consideration in sending Aunt Wu Shangying here.

…

That night, after returning home from the Three Musketeers design studio, Cao Xuemeng suddenly felt a little tired.

Recently I have been running the market, coordinating all aspects of resources, trying to get as many orders as possible for my own designers to keep them occupied, and also participating in some companies' design bidding activities.

The key point is that this thing is really tiring, and Cao Xuemeng also feels exhausted every day.

Only then did she truly understand how tired her dad had been.

She also suddenly realized that no wonder when she was a child, she always saw her father looking very tired, coming home from outside, but always keeping a smile on his face. It turned out that her father was even more tired than she was now every day.

The key point is that Cao Xuemeng now realizes that hard work may not necessarily lead to results. This is the most difficult thing for Cao Xuemeng to accept.

But Cao Xuemeng also knew that even if she no longer wanted to accept it, this was still a fact.

Lei Xinyi came to play with her after school today. Seeing her listless look, Lei Xinyi asked her if her aunt was here today?

"What the hell, I've been discussing business with others today. I'm really bored." Cao Xuemeng complained.

Lei Xinyi smiled proudly: "Sister Mengmeng, so the business is not bad. Tell me, how much money can you make by the end of the year?"

Cao Xuemeng really hasn't settled this account, and some orders are very cumbersome and require a long timeline.

"I estimate that I will earn several million by the end of the year. Don't think too high." Cao Xuemeng said.

In fact, with this profitability, it is already very good.

Many start-up companies made losses in the first one or two years, and then gradually failed to survive and went bankrupt.

There are only a few entrepreneurial companies that can actually survive and start making profits.

But Cao Xuemeng relied on her connections to get orders from Xiaomi Group and Xuemeng Food Factory.

They also rely on this to continue to expand the market.

However, the market is not limited to Xiaomi Group and Xuemeng Food Factory, there are many other companies.

And there are many companies larger than Xiaomi Group and Xuemeng Food Factory in terms of scale. The Three Musketeers Design Studio also encountered a lot of troubles when exploring the market.

Lei Xinyi couldn't stand listening to Sister Mengmeng's complaints, so she pulled Sister Mengmeng's arm and was about to go out: "Sister Mengmeng, let's go, I'll treat you to a drink and relax."

"What to drink? I won't go." Cao Xuemeng was too lazy to move now: "I'm too tired, or Xinyi, can you massage my legs and arms for me?"

Looking at Cao Xuemeng's lazy look, Lei Xinyi rolled her eyes and started to play with her. (End of this chapter)
