When will I have a long tassel?

"Don't say it so noble. At best, you are just a thief." Wang Zijie teased, "The reason why you are so enlightened is just because you are rich. If you ask me, you Lao Zhou is the real old revolutionary. "It's really not easy to guard such a big stall and not reach in."

Tang Zifeng said seriously: "That's true. When Lao Zhou was in the Mechanical and Electrical Department, he had a very good reputation. At that time, I thought it was just because he had no chance to make money. But after Lin Yiji, he was There are plenty of opportunities to make money out of his own pocket, but it's not easy for him to still stick to his heart.

"To be honest, I am still cautious in front of him now, not because I am afraid of his official power, but because I feel that this person's character is too valuable and deserves my respect."

"Actually, there are several people like this everywhere. Standing in front of these people, even if I want to do something bad, I feel uneasy." Wang Zijie also lamented.

Tang Zifeng said: "Yes, in the past few months of working with Lao Zhou, I feel that I have regained my long-lost party spirit."

"Are you a party member?" Wang Zijie asked in surprise.

"No." Tang Zifeng said confidently.

"..."

"This is not important." Tang Zifeng waved his hand, immediately changed into a pig-headed look, and asked eagerly: "Lao Qi, how is the sales of 'Wu San'? How much can we earn this year?"

"Can't you be more noble for a few minutes?" Wang Zijie said in astonishment. Tang Zifeng's change of attitude was too fast. Just now he was talking about his true heart and character. Why was he talking about this in the blink of an eye?

"The condensed version sold before the college entrance examination, most of them were 40,000 sets, and each set earned 10 yuan, so the total was 400,000. Because these condensed versions were distributed in various places, they brought the reputation of the official version. , Xinhua bookstores everywhere are now asking us to order the official version. Before I left the capital, I had already received 400,000 orders, and there is no suspense about the final number reaching 1 million sets. According to you, a set is priced at 100 yuan. Let’s press Shipping at a 50% discount, after deducting the cost, you can earn 25 yuan per set, which means you can earn at least 25 million yuan in total." Wang Zijie said enthusiastically.

"The base number is still too small." Tang Zifeng sighed. Nowadays, less than 3 million people take the college entrance examination each year, unlike in later generations when tens of millions of people registered for the college entrance examination each year. However, things have pros and cons. In later generations, there will be more people taking college entrance exams and more people doing college entrance exam business. Unlike now, a good idea can monopolize the entire market.

"The content of the book needs to continue to be improved. The company will set up a research institution to study how to improve this set of books. I estimate that after our sales this year, there will be books on the market that follow suit, just like the machine tools we produce. Same. Only by continuously maintaining our technological leadership can we maintain our market share." Tang Zifeng explained.

Wang Zijie said: "I have arranged for someone to take care of this matter. After the summer vacation, I think it is time for our company to hire a group of permanent employees to start the research work. By the way, last time I did it for your sister For tutoring, we developed a 'one-on-one' tutoring model, and several students who participated in the tutoring were inspired to set up a college entrance examination tutoring agency to provide this kind of 'one-on-one' tutoring."

"Not bad!" Tang Zifeng said with a smile, "Who is so business-savvy? You didn't recruit them to the company?"

Wang Zijie said: "They want to do it themselves, but they currently have no money. They want to form a joint venture with our company. I said that I would discuss it with you, but I have not agreed to it for the time being."

Tang Zifeng said: "Have a chat with them and see if they have the ability to execute. If they have the ability to execute, we can also contribute some money. We can just hold 70 to 80% of the shares."

"Seventy to eighty percent of the shares?" Wang Zijie grinned, "They said they would give us a maximum of 49%, and they want to hold the controlling share."

Tang Zifeng asked: "How much money do they want us to invest?"

"200,000." Wang Zijie said.

Tang Zifeng nodded: "If it is only 200,000, 49% of the equity is not a loss. This kind of investment can be regarded as venture capital. If they can succeed, college entrance examination tutoring is a big market. By the way, You tell them, let them not just focus on college entrance examination tutoring, they can do this kind of 'one-on-one' starting from kindergarten. If you are more serious, you can also add bar exams, public exams, postgraduate entrance exams, exam preparation, etc. in the future. Let’s come up with a comprehensive solution.”

"Yeah, that's a good idea. I'll talk to them later." Wang Zijie said seriously. In terms of management, he thinks that he is not as good as Tang Zifeng, so he will implement any suggestions put forward by Tang Zifeng to the letter.

"In the future, the company will follow this routine. When it sees a promising project, it will invest some money and provide some support. If it can be completed, it will be a huge profit. The Lijia Supermarket on the Linhe River is very popular now. According to Huang Liting's estimation, a net profit of 2 million yuan in one year should be no problem." Tang Zifeng said.

Wang Zijie praised: "You still have the vision to find such a business genius among a bunch of workers' families. I talked to Huang Liting last time, and I felt that this woman is not simple, and our investment can be considered a profit."

Tang Zifeng said with a smile: "This is still just the beginning. Huang Liting talked to me and said that she wanted to continue her efforts and go to Nanwu to open a Lijia branch in the second half of the year, and strive to go out of the province next year. According to this momentum, within five years, Lijia will It’s not surprising that Jia Supermarket has achieved a profit of 100 million, we own half of the shares.”

"So, we really don't have to worry about dividing the chance." Wang Zijie joked with a smile. Previously, Tang Zifeng said that if he bought Linyiji, he would be able to earn more than 300 million in profit just from selling the land. Wang Zijie thought it was an astronomical figure, but now that he thinks about it, 300 million is not that big a figure.

"No, just a small amount of money for a chance is really not in my eyes." Tang Zifeng said arrogantly.

After chatting about business matters, the two turned to their respective development aspects. Wang Zijie frowned and said: "Old man, I'm wondering if it's time to find someone else to take care of the company's daily affairs after the May 3rd sales are over. I also have to write some articles and comment on the lecturer first. Yes, there will be associate professors, professors, etc. in the future. After all, I want to get along in school, and I can’t survive without a title.”

Tang Zifeng nodded and said: "I think so too. Now that we are not short of money, we have to consider the issue of personal status. I will definitely not be able to do academic work. If you just hang around in the academic circle, maybe 20 years later He can also become a well-known domestic scholar or something, and maybe he can also provide some protection for the company."

Wang Zijie gave up on himself and said: "Forget it being a famous scholar, I will be satisfied if I can become a professor. You don't know, it is not easy to get involved in the academic circle now. To apply for a project, you have to fill out a lot of forms, which takes a lot of work. It’s just 50,000 yuan in funding.”

Tang Zifeng smiled and said: "Old Qi, you are so impressed now. Do you still need to apply for a project now? Can't you just pay for the 50,000 yuan by yourself? I have heard people say that the reason why some scholars are so awesome is because It’s because I have the funds to do some big survey projects, and then with the data, I can publish good articles.

"When the company makes money, you take one or two million, do a few big surveys, and then hire a group of graduate students to write articles for you. You are the first author, and they are the second authors. Send a hundred and eighty I don’t believe you can’t become a well-known scholar.”

"Is this okay?" Wang Zijie was stunned. He carefully considered it in his mind and found that Tang Zifeng's suggestion was really not nonsense.

There are several teachers in his teaching and research department who have very good ideas, but they just can't find the funds to conduct research. If he can provide funding to these teachers, the research results will be shared by everyone, and the articles will be assigned titles in turn. It will not be difficult to produce 20 to 30 core journal papers a year.

Nowadays, when evaluating professional titles in schools, they look at the number of articles. If he can really produce 20 or 30 core results a year, it will not be a fantasy to become a professor within ten years. By then, it will be difficult for a 35-year-old full professor with a lot of papers to become popular in the academic circle.

As for the cost paid for this, it can only be regarded as trivial. Research in the liberal arts does not cost much. A nationwide survey will only cost you 3 to 50 million, and the data obtained can be used to publish articles in various shapes. In academic circles, it is not uncommon for scholars to rely on the data from a single survey for a lifetime.

So, can three to five million be considered money?

Wang Zijie thought proudly in his heart.

"But, Lao Ba, what will happen to the company if I become an academic? I said that I would hire someone to manage it, but the person I hired is really not reassuring. The secret of our company is actually Those tips you came up with, if the professional managers we hired have some evil intentions and steal our tips and do it themselves, we will lose everything." Wang Zijie said worriedly.

Tang Zifeng thought for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he said, "I have an idea. How about bringing your parents and mine to the capital to become professional managers?"

"My parents?" Wang Zijie asked in surprise, "My parents are farmers in the countryside. How can I know anything about management?"

Tang Zifeng said: "How are my parents not farmers in the countryside? In fact, we don't need them to do any management, as long as they can work in the company. If you arrange the company's business and let them execute it, they can still do it. Yes. My dad has also done small business with people, and he is quite smart."

Wang Zijie also came to his senses and said, "You're right. My dad also ran a small business, and the people over there have more or less business acumen. I arranged everything and let them work in the company. If you stay inside, it should be no problem."

"This matter is settled." Tang Zifeng said, "After you go back, first find a better community, look for a few houses, buy them directly, and then let our parents go to Beijing. Anyway, we will wait for you later. When they get old, they will definitely live with us. While they are still in their 40s, they should just go to Beijing and start a business."

"Okay, I'll take care of this." Wang Zijie responded.
