Chapter 303 Spending Money Like Water!
Su Yu took out his cell phone and saw that it was his sister Su Qingyu's call. He couldn't help but be stunned and answered the call.
"Hey, Xiao Yu, are you busy?" Sister Su Qingyu's familiar voice came from the phone, "I'm in Yuhang. If you have time, I'll have dinner with you tonight. I have something I want to see you for. Let’s discuss it. By the way... call your girlfriend. I heard that you have found a very beautiful girlfriend, so you have to let me help you get over it, right? "
"Sister, have you arrived in Yuhang?" Su Yu was slightly surprised, "Then why didn't you inform me earlier? I'll have someone pick you up and arrange a hotel for you in advance."
Su Qingyu smiled and said: "I have been in Yuhang for several years after all. Maybe I am more familiar with this city than you, and I still need your arrangements? Okay... I will accept Mr. Liu's invitation and come over to open the meeting. I won’t be able to stay for more than a day or two. Besides, Mr. Liu has already arranged the hotel and other things in advance.”
"Okay!" Su Yu nodded, "Then I'll ask the secretary to book a place to eat, and I'll send you the location later."
"Okay!" Su Qingyu responded, but couldn't help but remind her, "Don't forget what sister just told you. In addition to coming to Yuhang for a meeting this time, I also came with a mission from my parents. ”
"Uh..." Su Yu coughed lightly, "Who said I have a girlfriend?"
When Su Qingyu heard Su Yu's words, she was surprised in her heart: "The last time you went home, didn't your brother Cheng Ming see you and a girl together? Could it be that... they broke up?"
"No, sister..." Su Yu was speechless for a while.
"It's fine if it doesn't matter." Su Qingyu didn't listen to his excessive explanation, "Although your parents and sister are looking forward to you having a vigorous career, you are not young anymore, and there are some things you should consider. I've thought about it. You always advised me before. Now that your brother Jianbo and I have stabilized, we plan to settle our affairs during the Chinese New Year. So, now that I'm advising you, you have to listen to me for once. ”
"It's a good thing that the matter between you and Jianbo can be settled." Su Yu recalled his sister's life in the original time and space trajectory, and he was very happy for her in his heart, "But, sister... I really don't have a girlfriend, cousin. That's just a mouth, passing it on to you and your parents."
Currently, even he himself can't explain clearly his relationship with Li Meng.
Let's talk about good feelings for each other, they should have it, but it's hard to say how strong this feeling is.
The relationship between the two of them as confidants, friends, and partners seems to be more stable than the so-called relationship between a man and a woman.
"What about the girl who went home with you last time? Are you still in contact?" Su Qingyu asked, "If you are still in contact, please call her together. I know you, if you are right If someone doesn’t like you, you won’t go home with them and help them carry their luggage.”
"Okay!" Seeing that his sister insisted on thinking so, Su Yu responded without bothering to explain.
Then the two of them continued to chat for a few words and then hung up the phone.
Immediately afterwards, Su Yu turned around and gave some instructions to his personal secretary Li Xiaoling, asking her to book a place to eat. Then he turned to Li Meng and said, "Uh... let's have dinner together tonight. My sister has arrived in Yuhang."
Li Meng saw that his words had no beginning and no end, and she was a little confused and asked: "Your sister?"
If it was a business dinner, as one of the company's partners, she would go with Su Yu without any problem, but this... the other party was Su Yu's family, so it meant something different for her to accompany him. , which also made her feel a little hesitant and confused. She wondered what Su Yu meant by this?
"Just have a meal." Su Yu didn't know how to explain, so he said vaguely.
Li Meng hesitated for a while, thinking about her hazy relationship with Su Yu, feeling a little confused and a little uneasy, but finally nodded.
Seeing Li Meng agree, Su Yu felt a little happy.
Afterwards, Su Yu sent the secretary's meal reservation to his sister, and then he and Li Meng finished handling the company's work matters, and rushed there together when it was almost time to get off work.
When the two of them arrived at the agreed place, Su Qingyu had already arrived.
Su Yu pushed open the door of the private room and saw her sister taking an order seriously after being introduced by a beautiful waiter.
"Here we come!" Su Qingyu heard the sound of the door opening and looked up with a smile at Su Yu and Li Meng who pushed the door open. Of course, her main gaze still fell on Li Meng.
Su Qingyu looked at Li Meng carefully, with a look of surprise and admiration in her eyes.
She had rarely seen a girl as beautiful and beautiful as Li Meng, so at first sight, she was attracted by Li Meng's appearance.
"Sister!" Su Yu greeted with a smile, and then sat down with Li Meng.
At this time, Li Meng, without waiting for Su Yu's introduction, took the initiative to reach out to Su Qingyu and said with a smile: "Hello, sister Su! I am Su Yu's classmate, partner, and of course... also a friend! "
"Hello!" Su Qingyu gently held Li Meng's hand and responded with a smile.
Her first impression of Li Meng was very good, but she was surprised that she and her brother, in addition to being classmates and friends, were actually partners.
When the two of them got to know each other, Su Yu took the menu in front of Su Qingyu and started ordering.
Unlike Su Qingyu's hesitation when ordering, Su Yu picked up his pen and checked off all the signature dishes on the menu without waiting for the waiter's introduction.
Then, he threw the menu back to the waiter.
The waiter responded and then left naturally. Su Qingyu, on the other hand, complained a little about Su Yu ordering so many dishes at once, thinking that he was too wasteful.
"Sister, it took a lot of effort for me to treat you to a meal. Ordering two more dishes is not a waste." Su Yu said with a smile.
He still remembered that the last time the two of them had dinner together was in May. At that time, his career had not started and he had no money. He wanted to treat his sister to a good meal but was unable to do so. Now, he has achieved financial success. Being free, naturally you don't have to worry too much about meaningless things like 'price'.
Su Qingyu saw Su Yu acting wealthy and wealthy.
Although he complained a little bit, in his heart, he was still very proud of him.
"Xiao Yu, is your company's business... developing well now?" Su Qingyu asked after a pause.
Su Yu nodded with a smile and said, "It can only be said that I have established some foundations, gained a little fame, and made a little money."
"Isn't it just a small amount of money?"
Su Qingyu said: "I heard from your brother Jianbo that you spent 100 million to acquire the land on the bank of the Qianjiang River on the outskirts of the city."
"Sister, in the financial industry, 100 million is actually just a small amount of money." Su Yu said with a smile, "The company is currently developing very well, so you don't have to worry about me. How is your Yuli clothing sales business? "
"It's pretty good." Su Qingyu said with a smile, "'Yimei Clothing' has positioned the market very accurately, and has launched many styles that are very popular among young people in the market. As a brand, we As a general agent in the southwest region, the development in the past six months has been very effective. At the same time... the sales volume of the online store has also increased month by month. In this six months, we have accumulated more than 50,000 member users. "
When she said this, Su Qingyu paused and then said: "Xiao Yu, I called you today. In addition to... meeting Miss Li, I also have another important matter that I want to discuss with you. Something about business.”
"Business matters?" Su Yu looked into his sister's eyes and said with a smile, "Sister, you want to expand your scale, open more stores in Yuzhou, and spread your business?"
"More than that!" Su Qingyu said with a slightly excited expression, "The combination of online and offline that you suggested to me before is very effective. In addition to opening more offline experience stores in Yuzhou, we I also want to open a few experience stores in several important districts and counties, as well as in the neighboring city of Chengdu. I am thinking...to make 'Yuli' a clothing terminal sales brand. In the future, we will not only do 'Yimei Clothing' As an agent, we can also be agents for other brands. As long as we capture the end-user group and achieve sales, we will have the right to speak with the brand. "
"Don't you often tell me on the phone that the future is the era of traffic?"
"As long as you master the terminal traffic entrance, whether it is online or offline traffic, it will open the door to wealth."
"We have developed a membership system. As long as we are members of 'Yuli', whether they purchase in online stores or offline experience stores, they can enjoy the lowest discounts and lowest sales prices. And through this set of With the system, after obtaining detailed information about member users, we can now directly push new product information to member users’ smartphones through customer service.”
"By setting up an online store and membership system on your own, Mr. Liu and Mr. Wang of 'Yimei Clothing', can you agree to do this?" Su Yu was slightly surprised, "Using their 'Yimei Clothing' products to cultivate a user base is such an approach. , It's like poaching. Even with my relationship, it's hard for them to take back the agency rights from you, sister, but in the long run, I'm afraid they will eventually fall out. "
"The southwest area is originally a blank area for 'Yimei Clothing'." Su Qingyu said, "When we signed the agreement before, we said that after the sales are completed, how we operate and how we sell can be independent Yes, and our 'Yuli Clothing Sales Company' and the 'Yimei Clothing' brand are just a cooperative relationship, not a relationship between a parent company and a subsidiary. It is okay for us not to use their terminal sales model. "
"and……"
Su Qingyu paused and continued: "In the past six months, we have gained some new popularity for this brand."
"It's possible to combine online and offline." Su Yu thought for a while and said, "But it's not easy to follow the method you said and find a new way. So let's do this...Sister, you If you want to expand your business scale, open new offline experience stores, or operate online stores, I have no objection, but the road still has to be taken step by step. According to the current operating model, expand to five or six stores first and give it a try. If the sales scale increases The momentum can still be maintained as it is now, and it will not be too late to officially launch it. This way, the investment will not be large, and the risk of loss will be within the controllable range. "
"Okay!" Su Qingyu thought for a moment, "Then let's do it step by step."
"Oh, right..."
Speaking of this, Su Qingyu remembered something again: "Mr. Liu mentioned to me that 'Yimei Clothing' has developed very well this year, and its sales have increased several times compared to last year. He and Mr. Wang want to further develop the company." We are expanding upstream and plan to acquire a well-known domestic women’s clothing design company. At the same time, we also want to strengthen our terminal sales capabilities and introduce new investors.”
"He wants you to enter?" Su Yu heard his sister say this and instantly saw through the other party's motives.
"Yeah!" Su Qingyu said, "But we don't have this ability."
"Mr. Liu's fundamental purpose is not you, sister, but me." Su Yu said, "He is thinking that after introducing you to the list of shareholders of 'Yimei Clothing', he will be tied to me. Moreover, if your 'Yu Li Clothing Sales Company' becomes a direct shareholder of 'Yimei Clothing', then it is only natural to continue to let you act as the sales agent in the southwest region, and you don't have to worry about gossip. At the same time, by tying you to the ship of 'Yimei Clothing', you have to consider the fundamental interests of the brand. Generally speaking... Mr. Liu's doing this can be regarded as giving back and making the most practical balance of interests."
After thoroughly understanding the other party's motives, Su Yu paused and asked: "How many shares do they plan to sell and how much funds do they want to raise?"
"15% of the shares, 50 million funds." Su Qingyu said.
After hearing the two figures his sister said, Su Yu secretly calculated the revenue scale and profit of Yimei Clothing and said, "It's reasonable, sister... Yimei Clothing is a brand company that has great potential under the management of General Manager Liu and General Manager Wang. Since General Manager Liu has proposed this idea, there is no need to refuse it. This is a win-win strategy for everyone."
"But where can we get so much money?" Su Qingyu said.
"I'll pay for the 50 million!" Su Yu said, "The 50 million will be lent to your Yuli Clothing Sales Company as an interest-free loan to invest in Yimei Clothing. When the company makes money in the future, you can pay me back."
In Su Yu's view, although this investment was made through his sister's Yuli Clothing Sales Company.
But using 50 million to take 15% of the shares of Yimei Clothing is not a loss.
Of course, the main reason was that he still felt that the development path planned by his sister for the 'Yu Li Clothing Sales Company' was too idealistic and might not work. Therefore, taking this opportunity to acquire 15% of the shares of 'Yimei Clothing' for his sister was also a guarantee and a backup. As for the 50 million yuan of funds, whether his sister's 'Yu Li Clothing Sales Company' had the ability to pay it back in the end was not important to him at all. After all... he didn't need the 50 million yuan.
"Okay!" Su Qingyu responded.
She knew that she was far inferior to her brother in business management, so she could only obey.
Next, after finishing the business, Su Qingyu began to change the subject and kept asking about the various origins of Li Meng and Su Yu, and indirectly asked about their thoughts on each other, which made Li Meng and Su Yu a little embarrassed.
Finally, after dinner, at around 8:30 in the evening, the three of them dispersed.
Su Yu first sent his sister back to the hotel, and then left with Li Meng.
Su Qingyu inadvertently heard that the two of them were actually sharing a house, and she had even more expectations for them.
