Chapter 1091 It’s so Reliable
Yang Dongxu and Bai Xi had dinner at a Japanese restaurant in the evening. Yang Dongxu said that he liked Japanese cuisine a lot, but he couldn't say he didn't like it.
After all, although the cuisines of different countries have their own characteristics, when it comes to eating, Chinese chefs are at the level of ancestors.
However, it is still good to change the taste occasionally, but Yang Dongxu is not sensitive to heavy tastes such as sashimi and fish belly. But the sushi tastes good.
Originally, Bai Xi and Yang Dongxu were not the only ones eating together, and there was also Bai Feng, a big light bulb who had to come together. However, not long after sitting down, the family called to say that the child was a little uncomfortable.
This new mother who just finished her confinement and started to work in the company in a hurry, like a strong woman. She just left without any nostalgia. How could business be more important than her own son.
"I want to quit!" Bai Xi put a piece of sashimi into her mouth and said.
Yang Dongxu, who was stuffing sushi into his mouth, suddenly widened his eyes, and then coughed violently and almost choked and rolled his eyes. The sake next to him was finally smoothed down by drinking it as water.
"Sister, don't play like this, it will really kill you?" Feeling the spicy feeling of being choked by a foreign object in his nasal cavity, tears welled up in Yang Dongxu's eyes.
Bai Xi looked at him calmly, obviously not paying attention to his cuteness at the moment.
Yang Dongxu smacked his lips a little embarrassedly: "Is the work pressure too great, or does someone want you to give up your position?"
"Neither, I want to resign myself." Bai Xi said.
"Huh?" Yang Dongxu looked at Bai Xi in surprise, wondering if the Bai Xi in front of him was pretended by someone else. This was not the Queen of Bai Xi he knew.
"Do you think that if I sit in this position, maybe I can reach the position of my grandfather if I work harder?" Bai Xi asked.
Yang Dongxu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then frowned. He seemed to understand why Bai Xi wanted to resign.
Bai Xi is indeed very powerful in both ability and skill.
Women in middle-level managers have great advantages, and women in senior managers are rare. As for female comrades who have reached the top, looking at the five thousand years of Chinese history, there is only one big cow like Wu Zetian.
So Bai Xi has actually reached the ceiling of her current position. If she does well at this time, she can either move behind the scenes and move up, or she can move to the same position every few years.
If she doesn't do well, she will step directly into the abyss.
"I had to fight for this position at the beginning because although Baijia has fallen, people's hearts cannot be scattered. We can't give some people the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, because then Baijia will be completely divided and there will be no possibility of rising again.
Now Baijia has stabilized, so there is no need for me to occupy such a thankless position. It seems glorious on the surface, but it is not as important to me and Baijia as I imagined." Bai Xi continued.
If other people heard this, they would definitely scold Bai Xi for looking for trouble. They even felt that she was hypocritical, just like the richest man Ma said that he didn't like money and it was painful to make money. She was a person who didn't know who he was after he became successful.
But Yang Dongxu heard another meaning from Bai Xi. That is, neither she nor her brother could restore the glory of Baijia.
Since she couldn't go any further in politics, Bai Xi decided to step down. Get rid of the shackles of being the CEO of mobile communications, and then make Baijia rise again in business.
Just as she said, the reason why she tried so hard to get this position was to stabilize the precarious situation of Baijia. The rest was just recognition of her ability, and it didn't benefit Baijia much.
On the contrary, because she got this position, she was restricted in other aspects. After all, she is now a public official, and the state has clear documents and regulations on public officials engaging in commercial operations.
So now that Baijia has stabilized, this position has more constraints than benefits for her. From the perspective of her own interests, resignation is actually the best choice.
And Bai Xi made this decision after careful consideration and consideration of all aspects. Compared with the previous impulsiveness in her competitive spirit, she is now undoubtedly more mature.
"Do you want to manage your cable factory well?" Yang Dongxu asked.
Although the cable factory also has state shares, it is indeed Baijia's industry, from factory to production to sales. It was all built up by Baijia little by little. Although there are some tricks to take advantage of the country by taking advantage of the East, from a legal perspective, it is indeed the industry of Baijia, not a state-owned enterprise.
"That has military orders, which has advantages and limitations." Bai Qian said.
Yang Dongxu nodded. When you are weak, you are marked for protection. When you become strong to a certain extent, protection becomes a constraint. Unless you are the boss, no one dares to show their teeth.
"Then what do you want to do?"
"Real estate!" Bai Qian said without any hesitation.
Yang Dongxu was shocked again.
"What? This industry is not good?" Bai Qian asked when she saw Yang Dongxu's surprised look.
"It's not that it's not good, but I didn't expect you to do this." Yang Dongxu shook his head. Queen Bai is Queen Bai, and her eyes are still so accurate.
"In fact, when I was considering it before, it was not just real estate. I also considered cosmetics and children's products. However, compared to Baijia, I still have some connections. I am too unfamiliar with both the chemical industry and the children's industry. Therefore, I chose real estate, at least I have some confidence." Bai Qian said.
Okay!
Yang Dongxu was completely convinced, because whether it is cosmetics or children's products. Even if you only produce hand cream and diapers. These two industries can still make a lot of money. If you do it well, even if it doesn't look as high-end as a telecommunications company. But she really makes money.
Women, children and the elderly, these are the three pillars of the future economy that can be ranked. If real estate is regarded as a hard demand for the older generation to have a home. Then the three industries chosen by Bai Qian can be said to be the bull's eye.
"Make cosmetics." Yang Dongxu said after a moment of hesitation, and then continued to stuff sushi into his mouth.
"Why?" Bai Qian asked in surprise. She thought Yang Dongxu would support her in real estate.
Real estate seems to be a competitor to Hurricane Construction, but anyone with a clear mind knows it. Domestic real estate is not something that can be taken over by one company, not even ten companies. Even if those big guys join forces, it won't work because the interests involved are too huge.
So having her in this industry will not have any impact on Hurricane Construction. Without her, Hurricane Construction will still eat meat. The bowl is so big that it is impossible to have one more bone.
As for real estate, she has the financial support of the cable factory behind her, plus the connections left by the Baijia family, so she can basically start her own business. Yang Dongxu can only give her some pointers to save time and effort.
But if she does cosmetics, she has never been involved in the chemical industry. Yang Dongxu asked her to choose this industry. He must have decided to help her arrange the path of this industry, which is more difficult than doing real estate.
"From the perspective of profit alone, real estate is indeed the fastest money-making industry among the three industries. But in terms of huge profits, the three industries are actually similar. Even the cosmetics industry is higher than the other two."
Thinking that the cost of a few hundred yuan of moisturizing fluid in the future is only a few yuan, he continued: "Compared with real estate, cosmetics seem to be much more low-key. And if it relies on real estate to accumulate family business for Baijia, it seems to rise quickly but it is very controversial."
In fact, there is one thing he didn't say, that is, as a person who has been through it. Even when he was reborn, the domestic real estate market was still very hot.
But in fact, it was the last glory, and the dividends of domestic real estate could not be eaten for a lifetime. At most, it will end in twenty years, and then it will be the cold winter of the seemingly prosperous real estate industry.
But cosmetics are different. Cosmetics can be made all the time, and even become a family inheritance for Baijia. And this thing everyone only looks at your brand, and there are people with other intentions besides your peers. Not many people are idle to find out who the real boss behind this brand is, which is very suitable for making a fortune quietly.
"But I don't know much about this industry." Bai Qian said.
"It's okay if you don't understand. I don't understand it very much either." Yang Dongxu said.
Bai Xi couldn't help but glared at him. If you don't understand, why did you let me choose this?
But this look was obviously more angry than blaming.
Yang Dongxu didn't beat around the bush and said directly: "Although I don't understand chemical industry, I understand the routine of the cosmetics industry. It's okay if you don't understand. You can hire someone to help you manage the company with a high salary.
It's okay if you don't understand chemical industry. You can first use the money to acquire a factory, or even acquire a current cosmetics brand. Technology and production in this industry are secondary, and packaging is the main thing. One point of quality and nine points of packaging, or nine points of fame."
"Why do I feel more and more unreliable the more I listen?" Bai Xi looked at Yang Dongxu.
If the anger just now was because she felt that Yang Dongxu was joking. Then after listening to Yang Dongxu's general plan to enter the cosmetics industry, she felt that Yang Dongxu was not talking about letting her develop well in this industry, but about making a shell company to make a fortune and run away. And this was obviously not her original intention.
"Why is it unreliable? I think it is very reliable, at least everyone in this industry does it this way. If you feel guilty, it is already a good conscience to ensure that your products do not harm the users and guarantee the quality." Yang Dongxu spread his hands, indicating that he would not take the blame.
Unless it is a luxury product, daily cosmetics, shampoo, shower gel, etc. As long as there is no problem with the product itself, the victory or defeat is the competition in packaging and reputation. Even luxury goods are determined by this.
New technology and high-end technology are all nonsense, unless you can come up with an epoch-making product to make a rejuvenation pill. Otherwise, everyone is basically the same in terms of removing oil and dirt.
The tea products that are so rich to invite celebrities to advertise are big-name tea products, otherwise they are niche products.
As for reputation and quality issues, as long as the product is not harmful to the user and has some anti-dandruff and oil effects, it is basically a success.
Is the use of big-brand shampoo just to wash your hair clean?
Inner vanity satisfaction is also very important, okay?
And this is the key point.
For example, when you go to a bathhouse to take a shower, people use shampoo such as Clear and Head & Shoulders.
You buy a bucket of shampoo for 10 yuan. The amount is huge, and the effect of washing is almost the same, and your fragrance may even be stronger.
But why do people look at you like you're an idiot?
So in the cosmetics industry, if you are 10% truth and 90% flattery, you've basically passed the qualification line. If you are 20% truth and 90% flattery, you have the opportunity to develop into a big brand.
If you are 30% truth and 90% flattery, you can try to make luxury goods.
If you are 40% truth and 90% flattery, you don't make luxury goods. Instead, you sell them as big brand products. That's simply an industry debut, and it's not an exaggeration to call you a kind-hearted entrepreneur.
"Is this industry so unreliable?" After listening to Yang Dongxu, Bai Qian instantly felt that this industry was a pit, and it was very likely a cesspool.
"I've said it, this is already very reliable. In this industry, as long as the packaging is good, it's not uncommon to sell a few cents worth of things for dozens or hundreds of dollars.
This is like the difference between wearing street goods and wearing branded goods. Are street goods too tight to cover your body? Or are they not of good quality and not strong enough? Why do you feel better wearing branded goods than street goods?
When it comes to quality, the quality of some imitations is really conscientious. Do you believe that the so-called pure handmade luxury goods are of very poor quality? But why do people feel proud when buying genuine products and feel guilty when using imitations?
So what I'm saying is that unless it's a cannonball used in a war, it needs real effects, and then you can look at the brand when you are in the mood. The rest of the other industries are basically the same."
"A lot of fallacies." Betsy pouted.
