Chapter 349 The Greatest Invention in the World
"Haha, I just followed your instructions. You didn't see it, but those bumpkins were frightened after hearing this. They really thought they could defeat you with just a few dollars. When it comes to business, you, Old Tang, can stand up to 100 of them."
In the hall of Fatty Machine Tool, Ning Mo told Tang Zifeng how he had scared Zhao Xinggen and others. When he talked about his proud moments, he frequently burst out laughing like a barbell.
Tang Zifeng had already sent his secretary Xiong Kai to wander on the street. At this time, there were only him and Ning Mo in the hall, so there was no need to be taboo about talking.
"I always felt that the way these little bosses looked at me was wrong, and they must have been thinking about my intentions. That Song Jingcan, when he came over to toast, he spoke garbledly, obviously just to trick me. After you brag to them, , when they came in front of us again, their attitude obviously changed, and they probably knew that I wouldn't care about their little property." Tang Zifeng said with a smile.
"Bah, they call it industry." Ning Mo said disdainfully, "That business you and Professor Wang are doing is called industry. I heard that the e-commerce website my sister is running now is called Tangyi.com Yes, it is extremely popular now. Beibei analyzed that if this website were to be listed, it would be worth at least 20 billion.
"I really didn't see that our sister is such a timid person and is so fierce in business. If you practice for a few more years, you, the elder brother, may not be as good as her."
"That was actually the foundation laid by Professor Wang and his father. Ziyan just picked a ready-made one." Tang Zifeng said lightly.
The publishing company co-founded by Tang Zifeng and Wang Zijie started from the "May 3rd" period and quickly accumulated several pots of "gold". Since both of them were in the system, one was the general manager of the company and the other was a university professor, neither of them were suitable to manage the company personally, so they invited their parents to come to the capital to take charge of the company's management.
Wang Zijie's father, Wang Chongshou, was a hard-working and quick-thinking farmer. He took advantage of the company's door-to-door delivery service to help schools that had ordered "May 3rd" materials purchase other teaching aids and some teaching tools, and slowly built up a Created an e-commerce shelf.
Seeing this situation, Tang Zifeng hired two people from New Jingwei Company to build an e-commerce system, and hired two people from Lijia Supermarket to guide sales. A rough e-commerce website was established in this way.
In 1999, Tang Ziyan graduated from university. She didn't want to pursue the automatic control major she studied, but instead focused on this website in her family business. She named the website "Tangyi.com", served as the CEO herself, and carried out vigorous publicity and hype, and gained a certain reputation in a short period of time.
In the past two years, the domestic e-commerce atmosphere has gradually taken shape. Tangyi.com used the distribution system established by Wang Chongshou to achieve the fastest delivery speed within the capital within the next day, immediately leaving other similar websites behind. went. Tang Ziyan saw this trend and followed the same example. She also established her own distribution system in several other first-tier cities in the country. It focused on fast delivery and became famous for a while.
Zhang Beibei said that Tangyi.com’s market value can reach 20 billion precisely because of the constant hearing of Tangyi.com’s name. Of course, the market value on the Internet has a water content of up to 99%. A market value of 20 billion can be speculated very quickly, and it will shrink to 2 million or even 200 yuan, which is just a few trading days.
At this point, the "Shuangyu Feihai Company" co-founded by Tang Zifeng and Wang Zijie can already be regarded as a large and powerful company. The company has not given up its original publishing business. At the same time, Tangyi.com, a rapidly growing wholly-owned subsidiary, also owns half of the shares in the national chain Lijia Supermarket. Adding up these businesses, the annual dividend income is as much as 100 million to 200 million.
As for the company's shares in other businesses, such as the 40% stake in a training institution called "Si Erxue", Tang Zifeng couldn't remember it without flipping through the book.
Ning Mo revealed to Zhao Xinggen and others that Tang Zifeng's shareholding in Lijia Supermarket was under Tang Zifeng's instruction. Tang Zifeng owns a family business with a market value of hundreds of millions. It has been difficult to hide this matter from others. Old leaders like Xu Zhaojian, Xie Tiancheng, and Zhou Heng all know about this matter, but they have nothing to say.
Tang Zifeng told Zhou Heng about starting a company with Wang Zijie when he first came to Yiji, but he didn't say how profitable the company was. Later, his personal wealth continued to accumulate, and he owned more than a dozen houses in the capital. There was no need to deliberately investigate such things in terms of organization. You could know it just by listening to gossip. If Tang Zifeng concealed it from the organization, he would appear guilty.
There is no other way, Tang Zifeng can only blame the source of his huge wealth on his father. Judging from the registration information of Feihai Company, the two shareholders are indeed his father Tang Lin and Wang Zijie's father Wang Chongshou. The general story template is that two middle-aged farmers came to the capital to start a business. Of course, their respective sons also provided some intellectual support. After a few years, the two middle-aged farmers both earned hundreds of millions of dollars, and their sons in the system naturally became the second generation of rich people.
Does the country have laws that stipulate that the second generation of rich people cannot work in the system?
The answer is naturally no.
Does the country have laws that stipulate that second-generation rich people cannot be general managers of state-owned enterprises?
The answer is still no.
So, Tang Zifeng is the general manager of Linji Group, Tang Zifeng is personally very rich, Tang Zifeng is very handsome..., who wouldn't agree?
When money reaches a certain level, it becomes a number. Making money for himself is no longer something Tang Zifeng needs to consider. Feihai Company now employs several professional managers. Tang Zifeng occasionally gives the company a few ideas and points out the future development direction, which is enough. His main focus is on Linji Group and the machine tools of the entire country. on industry development.
To paraphrase an old saying, Tang Zifeng is now a noble person, a pure person, and a person who has escaped from vulgar taste.
Tang Zifeng's visit to Heling was indeed to solve the price war problem, and he had no personal gain. But the more he said this, the less others believed him.
Poor people always find it hard to understand when they see rich people doing charity. This is because the concepts of money in their respective lives are completely different. In fact, some rich people do have a certain amount of money and no motivation to make more money, so they want to do something good and spend hundreds of money on others. If your wealth is not that high, how can you understand this kind of behavior?
Zhao Xinggen and the others suspected Tang Zifeng had ulterior motives, and Tang Zifeng also saw it. He even guessed what the other party would do to trick him through Ning Mo. After all, this was a trick that everyone could think of. He asked Ning Mo to properly reveal his net worth to the small bosses in Heling. He didn't need to say too much. Just hit the mark. Talking too much would make these people come over and bow to him. Tang Zifeng couldn't stand it either. .
"By the way, Old Tang, I also want to do something. What do you think?"
After talking about other people's affairs, Ning Mo asked Tang Zifeng a little cautiously.
"What are you doing?" Tang Zifeng asked puzzledly.
Ning Mo said: "Of course I started a business. I'm going to have a girl soon, a son and a daughter. How can I earn some property for them? You don't know, when a private owner in Heling marries his daughter, the dowry is a factory. When my son-in-law comes to his house, he can get a free meal. I'm worried that if I don't have any money, my daughter won't be able to marry."
"Aren't you worried that your son won't get a wife?" Tang Zifeng argued.
"Don't worry." Ning Mo said, "He can become someone's son-in-law."
"You are cruel!" Tang Zifeng was convinced. Zhang Beibei said before that Ning Mo likes her daughter more, which seems to be true. Did Ning Yiming, the chubby Dun, give her as a gift for free?
"What, you don't want to continue opening a repair shop?" Tang Zifeng asked.
Ning Mo said: "The repair shop can continue to open, but business is not easy to do now, and the situation is similar to that of machine tool factories. I wonder if I can open a factory to produce some unique products, like As you told Zhao Xinggen and others today, you can make money just by having one or two flagship products."
"What distinctive products do you want to produce?" Tang Zifeng asked.
Ning Mo stood up, walked to the shelf where tools were placed, took a few things and placed them in front of Tang Zifeng.
"What is this?" Tang Zifeng didn't understand. He guessed that it must be some kind of tool, but he couldn't see what it was used for. Over the years, Tang Zifeng's industrial knowledge has improved, but he can only distinguish between lathes and milling machines. He does not understand the technical details.
"This is for removing the bearing, this is for centering the circle when installing the screw, this is for leveling on the guide rail..."
Ning Mo introduced Tang Zifeng in the same manner, with some pride in his tone.
"You mean, these tools are used to repair machine tools?"
"Exactly."
"Did you invent it?"
"Exactly."
"You have complete intellectual property rights."
"Exactly."
"You want to open a factory to produce these things and then sell them to your peers?"
"Exactly."
Tang Zifeng asked a question, and Ning Mo answered "exactly", which also showed that the two of them had a clear understanding of each other. Tang Zifeng could guess what Ning Mo was thinking at once. Of course, this kind of connection is also one-way. If it were Tang Zifeng, Ning Mo wouldn't be able to figure out what kind of idea he had in mind.
"Not bad, Fatty." Tang Zifeng smiled, patted Ning Mo's fat shoulder and praised.
Ning Mo was a little more modest this time. He said: "Actually, it's nothing. The ideas of some tools were learned from other masters when I was working on a machine. But at that time, everyone had their hands on Use whatever tools you have. In the past few years, I have opened my own repair shop, and I often have to do these repetitive things. After doing it a lot, I have some ideas. When I have free time, I will make these tools. Yes. Beibei always said that I was actually just trying to be lazy..."
Tang Zifeng laughed and said: "Haha, the greatest inventions in the world were made by lazy people."
