Chapter 465: Ambition

Tang Kuan and the others reported to Li Dong for half an hour before giving a rough overview of the situation.

On the stock market side, the situation is not bad.

Although the expected monthly profit of more than 100 million yuan was not achieved, after some inventory, according to the current market situation, Li Dong earned more than 60 million yuan.

Li Dong felt quite satisfied, but Tang Kuan blamed himself all over his face, "Mr. Li, it's because of our bad vision, and a few stocks have fallen sharply. If these few stocks were not dragged down, the profit in August should exceed 100 million yuan." of."

Li Dong waved his hands and smiled: "It's okay, the stock market, who can predict in advance who will rise and who will fall.

It doesn't matter if it falls, ups and downs are the norm, as long as it is generally profitable. "

"Mr. Li, do you want to sell these stocks?"

"Let's take it slow, maybe it will rise back later. The stock market has been good recently, and this is all uncertain."

Tang Kuan nodded, feeling slightly relieved.

After talking about stocks, Li Dong chatted with several people for a while.

Because Tang Kuan and the others had to keep an eye on the stocks and didn't have much time to chat, when Li Dong and Wang Jie and Cao Feng had a talk, they went aside and continued to work.

After taking a sip of water, Li Dong asked Wang Jie, "How much did you invest in the stock market?"

"Two hundred thousand."

"Could it be that all the belongings have been taken out?"

"Roughly the same."

"Take it easy, the stock market is actually gambling. A small gamble is fun, but a big gamble hurts your health. It's enough to earn some money for milk powder. When I delist in the future, don't get meddled in it."

Wang Jie nodded and said: "I know, isn't this a ride for you, if you withdraw, even if I want to stay, Meizi will not agree."

"That's good."

Li Dong didn't say much. After chatting for a while, the security personnel outside the door gently knocked on the door and entered, "President Li, Miss Ji is here."

"Ji Lanxin..."

Li Dong muttered, nodded and said, "Please come in.

"

After a while, Ji Lanxin in home clothes came in, Li Dong got up and smiled and said, "Miss Ji, didn't you go out today?"

"Take a day off, isn't this just a chance to meet Mr. Li?"

Ji Lanxin smiled, and nodded to Wang Jie and the others as a greeting.

People like Wang Jie live in Li Dong's place, and Ji Lanxin has met them a few times, but they haven't chatted with them, so they don't know them too well.

Seeing that Li Dong had something to talk about, Wang Jie didn't make any trouble, so he took Cao Feng to the side to watch Tang Kuan and the others operate.

Li Dong asked Ji Lanxin to sit down, and as soon as she sat down, Ji Lanxin looked at Tang Kuan who was not far away and said, "Mr. Li is speculating in stocks?"

The equipment in the hall is all there, and Ji Lanxin is not a fool, she guessed what these people were doing at a glance.

Li Dong didn't deny it either, nodded and said, "Well, just for fun."

Ji Lanxin smiled and didn't say any more. As for Li Dong's joke, she wouldn't take it seriously.

Is it necessary to hire a special person to operate it for a little fun?

Moreover, there are quite a few people, and the time is not short. At least she knows that Wang Jie and the others have lived here for a month. It looks like they are ready for a long-term battle.

Li Dong attaches so much importance to it, in Ji Lanxin's view, Li Dong's investment in the stock market is at least over 100 million.

Without this much money, Li Dong would not be so concerned.

But since Li Dong said so, she doesn't need to expose it, as long as everyone understands it in their hearts.

Ji Lanxin was not looking for Li Dong because of the stocks.

After a few gossips with Li Dong, Ji Lanxin turned back to the topic and said, "Mr. Li, I heard that Mr. Wang is going to lead a team to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to explore the market?"

Li Dong glanced at her, this woman is really well-informed.

Although it is not a big secret that Wang Yue and the others are leaving, as long as they are not staring at the distance, most people will not know.

Ji Lanxin even knew this, and obviously put a lot of effort into Yuan Fang.

Li Dong nodded and said, "That's true."

Ji Lanxin hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Li, it's not easy to develop the East China market from afar. I have a proposal. I wonder if Mr. Li is interested?"

"Miss Ji, please tell me."

"That's right. Recently, Jinding Jewelry also wants to open up the market. But to be honest, Jinding Jewelry's scale is not large, and it is a bit difficult to support it when it goes out of Jiangbei. What I mean is, it's better to let Jinding and Yuanfang cooperate again.

Although Jinding is not as good as Yuanfang, my father has been running it for many years, and in this part of East China, there are still some connections.

If we both cooperate, it will be beneficial to each other, and it will save Mr. Li a lot of trouble. Is Mr. Li interested in talking about it? "

Li Dong touched his chin, but didn't speak in a hurry.

Cooperate with Jinding?

He understood what Ji Lanxin meant. Jinding helped Yuanfang open up the local market, and Yuanfang would naturally reciprocate.

Everyone has said that Jinding also wants to open up the market, and Ji Lanxin said to cooperate, naturally thinking that Jinding and Yuanfang will form a partnership again.

Once Yuanfang opens up the local market, the jewelry company that enters the Yuanfang store cannot be someone else. Jinding wants to use the Yuanfang store to directly expand its business.

This idea is good, but Li Dong still doubts, does Jin Ding have this ability?

Let's not talk about whether they have such a large capital to distribute goods outside the province, even if they do, how much help can they bring to distant places?

The Ji family may be regarded as a rich man in Jiangbei, but outside of Jiangbei, the Ji family can still have influence?

Li Dong is skeptical about this point. If Jinding Jewelry really has such a great ability, it wouldn't be possible to keep guarding the three-acre land in Pingchuan for so many years.

Jinding Jewelry didn't even occupy the market in Jiangbei Province. Now that they want to go across provinces directly, Ji Lanxin has a big appetite, but Li Dong is afraid that she won't be able to eat it.

Li Dong didn't rush to refuse, he laughed and said, "I don't know much about the specifics of this matter. If Ms. Ji is really interested, why don't you take some time to talk to Mr. Wang?"

A look of disappointment appeared in Ji Lanxin's eyes, but she still smiled and said, "That's fine. I'll visit tomorrow before Mr. Wang leaves."

"welcome any time."

After saying this, Ji Lanxin still didn't leave.

Just when Li Dong was suspicious, Ji Lanxin said softly: "Mr. Li, Jinding Jewelry recently organized a top jewelry auction. I wonder if you have the honor to invite Mr. Li to participate?"

"Jewelry Auction..."

Li Dong was stunned for a moment, and said directly: "Miss Ji, isn't Jinding Jewelry in the middle and low-end jewelry business? Why is it involved in the top jewelry industry now?"

Although middle and low-end jewelry and high-end jewelry are both in the same industry, the audiences of the two are completely different.

Jinding has also opened up the market for middle- and low-level consumers over the years, but at this time it suddenly got involved in the high-end jewelry business, and Li Dong felt that Ji Lanxin's ambitions were a little too big.

Top-notch jewelry doesn't mean that your family has jewelry, but you have to have a circle and connections.

Those who can afford those luxurious jewelry are all wealthy households. These people have already formed a consumption habit and almost have fixed consumer brands.

At this time, if Ji Lanxin wants to take the food from the tiger's mouth, it depends on whether others are willing or not.

How easy are other top jewelers to lose customers to you even if others are willing?

Those high-end customers, which jewelry store is not trying their best to maintain them, if they are so easy to be pried away, others will not be able to do it long ago.

Ji Lanxin knew what Li Dong was thinking.

But Ji Lanxin still smiled lightly: "Mr. Li, you have to try it. Just like your distant place, you have been doing life supermarkets before, but haven't you also set foot in hypermarkets recently? If you don't do it, how will you know if you can succeed? This auction can be a hit, and I think there is still a lot to be done in the top jewelry market.

Moreover, there are not a few new rich people in recent years, and these people may not necessarily have developed consumption habits.

The older generation of high-end customer groups will always withdraw from the stage one day.

If Jinding Jewelry starts to deploy now, even if the business is bleak now, it may not be possible in a few years. I think it is necessary to plan ahead. What do you think? "

Li Dong nodded when he heard the words, Ji Lanxin was right.

There are indeed quite a few new rich people in these years. Among other things, how many people have made a lot of money with the Internet.

And this is just the beginning. After two years of mobile Internet becoming popular, there will be a new batch of rich people.

These people are all rich people, and they naturally want to spend their money.

Many people like to buy luxury goods, and there is a huge market for top jewelry whether it is for personal use or investment preservation.

Thinking of Li Dong's glance at Ji Lanxin, he suddenly discovered that among the women he knew, almost all those who were in the business world had considerable ambitions.

Hu Wanlin, Ji Lanxin, and even the previous Zhang Lanyu!

If it wasn't for Chen Rui's business, Zhang Lanyu would be an out-and-out strong woman, and her ambitions are also not small.

Of course, this is actually the norm.

It is more difficult for women to enter the business circle than men. If they want to get ahead, they have to suffer more and work harder than men.

Under such circumstances, all the women who can succeed in the business world are naturally ambitious.

Faced with Ji Lanxin's invitation, Li Dong hesitated for a moment, but immediately thought of the cooperation between Jinding and Yuanfang in Pingchuan. If Jinding's reputation can really increase, it will be good for Yuanfang.

Thinking of this, Li Dong nodded and said: "It's a great honor, I will participate when the time comes."

"Thank you Mr. Li!"

A bright smile appeared on Ji Lanxin's face, obviously overjoyed.

Li Dong went to participate, it was a movable type signboard.

Among the new rich men in Pingchuan in recent years, Li Dong has the most net worth and the most famous name.

If the news of Li Dong's participation is announced, many people will definitely be attracted to participate, and Li Dong and Ji Lanxin are well aware of this by using Li Dong's fame to publicize.

Since Li Dong agreed, it means that he acquiesced in Jinding Jewelry's use of his reputation for publicity this time.

On the one hand, it is because of the cooperative relationship between the two parties, and on the other hand, it does not have much influence on Li Dong, but can help Li Dong expand his influence, which can be regarded as mutual benefit.

Now that he was going to participate, Li Dong proposed again: "Miss Ji, in fact, the real consumers of top jewelry are not people in the business world. Have you invited the entertainment circle? Find a few first-line or even top stars to go around, The effect is probably ten times better than mine."

Ji Lanxin quickly said: "Mr. Li is humble."

Then he added: "We have also invited some people from the literary and art circles, but it depends on their schedule. You know, these people sometimes have more airs than anyone else."

Speaking of this, Ji Lanxin felt a little helpless.

Don't look at the celebrities who don't have as much money as them, but those people are so proud that they can't even compare with them when they are officials.

It's better to be less famous, and more famous stars, it really has the feeling of giving up to me, an unknown Jinding Jewelry, even if they pay, these people may not be willing to come.

What's more, Ji Lanxin may not be willing to pay too much to invite these people, don't make it to the end, and help these people make money.

Of course, this is also related to the geographical location of Pingchuan.

A city in the middle of the country, the economy is not developed, and there are few big-name artists who really come here.

If it is placed in Beijing and Shanghai, with the scale of Jinding Jewelry, it is still a simple matter to invite a few first-line stars.

Enterprises in Shanghai and Beijing are more popular than enterprises in the central region, and no one wants to go to Pingchuan without paying a big price.

When Ji Lanxin said so, Li Dong also deeply agreed.

But this is Ji Lanxin's business, so there is no need for Li Dong to be so kind to help her with advice.

After that, the two of them didn't talk any more, they briefly talked about the venue and time, and then Ji Lanxin got up and left.

(To be continued.)
