That evening, everyone gathered together.
Even Li Kaile was called over by Zhou Chen and became part of the team.
When Li Kaile learned that Zhou Chen had started a company, he was stunned. That's amazing!
While others were still preparing for the college entrance examination, Zhou Chen had already built a successful business, started a company, become a boss, and built a team of nearly ten people.
Aside from admiration, all that remains is admiration.
That night, everyone signed contracts to join Pinchoufang Company, followed by a joyful celebration.
Zhou Chen drank quite a bit of alcohol and was eventually helped back by Xu Dalong and Li Kaile.
The next day,
Apart from Zhang Dafu, Sister Liu, Li Kaile, and Xu Dalong, the others embarked on their journeys to other counties to start stinky tofu businesses.
They will become the main force for Zhou Chen in recruiting franchisees for county-level markets.
Zhou Chen has his own plan for how to expand his business. Some people look down on small places like county towns, but he never underestimates them. You know, there are thousands of county towns in the country, far more than cities.
In any county, as long as there is one franchisee, the income from the franchise fee alone will far exceed the money earned in the stock market.
Each franchisee pays a franchise fee of 11,000 yuan. With 200 franchisees, that's over 2 million yuan, not even counting franchisees in cities.
Zhou Chen believes the future is promising and worth looking forward to.
The stinky tofu business may not be large, but it has created a legend.
When the first class ended, Zhou Chen received a message from Zhang Dafu. He and Sister Liu had already set off for Fengcheng to prepare for opening a store in the city.
He will cover all the expenses for the shop, but the two of them will have to arrange their own accommodation.
Li Kaile greatly envied Zhang Dafu and Sister Liu for being able to do business in Fengcheng City. He wanted to persuade Zhou Chen to allow him to go with them.
Zhou Chen's answer was simple: let Li Kaile persuade her mother, otherwise there was no point in discussing it.
After all, Li Kaile is still in school. Even if he runs a stinky tofu business, it only takes up his evenings. In the end, he is still a high school student.
Zhang Dafu and Sister Liu are different; they have been in the snack business for many years and have far more experience than Li Kaile.
Li Kaile at this moment may not be able to stand on his own.
If Li Kaile's mother agrees, he wouldn't mind letting Li Kaile give it a try. It's true that Li Kaile doesn't have a talent for studying, so it's better to consider other directions as soon as possible.
But that means dropping out of school and not being able to finish senior year.
Zhou Chen couldn't make such a crucial decision for Li Kaile.
Li Kaile said he would definitely persuade his mother.
I was unable to keep our appointment yesterday at noon.
Today, Zhou Chen arrived at the construction site and Sun Liancheng's office.
When Zhou Chen heard Sun Liancheng mention his company, he wasn't surprised. It might have been Sun Wanying who told him, or it might have been his master, Xu Laoqi. It wasn't exactly a secret.
"Xiao Zhou, do you dare to bet with me again?"
"The bet is the same as last time. You lost, and you'll work for me from now on."
Sun Liancheng laughed.
Goodness, Sun Liancheng really thinks highly of him; he's been trying so hard to make him his subordinate.
Zhou Chen didn't know whether to be happy or sad about this.
However, he was more interested in knowing how Sun Liancheng planned to gamble. If it was to continue gambling on stocks, he wasn't interested. In his previous life, he paid little attention to the stock market and only knew about some famous stocks.
This is why, after acquiring two million dollars, he invested all of it in Penguin stock instead of other stocks. It wasn't that he didn't want to continue making money in the stock market; it was simply because his understanding of it was extremely limited.
Zhou Chen wouldn't do anything he wasn't sure about.
He knew his own limitations. Two million seemed like a lot, but in the grand scheme of the stock market, it was just a drop in the ocean.
"Mr. Sun, how would you like to place the bet?"
Zhou Chen asked.
Seeing this, Sun Liancheng laughed and said, "It's very simple. Let's bet on whether you can make your stinky tofu business successful. As far as I know, you've come up with a franchise model. We'll agree on the number of franchisees after you finish your college entrance exam. If you reach that number, you win; if you don't, you lose. How about it?"
oh?
That makes some sense.
Zhou Chen's expression flashed. Sun Liancheng thought he couldn't make the stinky tofu business work, so he made a bet with him on this.
"Sure, Mr. Sun, how many franchisees do you think should be the standard for winning or losing?"
Zhou Chen has complete confidence in his business and doesn't mind taking another gamble.
"With eight months left until your college entrance exam, let's use 240 franchisees as a benchmark."
"In other words, if you can bring in 30 franchisees every month, you win; otherwise, I lose."
Sun Liancheng stroked his chin and said.
240 franchisees?
Zhou Chen's expression flashed. Is that all?
If it were just one month, he wouldn't be entirely confident in attracting so many franchisees, but with a duration of eight months, until the end of the college entrance exam, there's nothing to worry about.
"Mr. Sun, I'll take this bet. But what's the prize if I win?"
Zhou Chen had no reason to refuse a bet that seemed certain to win.
"Heh, you're quite confident, kid. You're not even thinking about losing, you're already thinking about winning." Sun Liancheng was slightly taken aback, but he really hadn't thought about what Zhou Chen would get if he won the bet.
Because in his mind, Zhou Chen couldn't possibly win. 240 franchisees were not so easy to achieve. For this bet, he specifically contacted many snack shop owners through some friends, but none of them could do it.
How could Zhou Chen, a young man just starting out and becoming a business owner, possibly achieve this?
You decide the prize.
Sun Liancheng told Zhou Chen to bring it up himself.
The previous bet was that Sun Liancheng would provide 500,000 yuan to help him buy Heng Hai stock, and the profits would go to him.
This time, stocks that you're not absolutely certain about can be ignored.
But as for other things, Zhou Chen has nothing to lack.
"How about this, if I win the bet, Mr. Sun needs to do me a favor unconditionally. Of course, this favor must not involve any illegal or criminal activity and must be within Mr. Sun's capabilities."
Zhou Chen couldn't think of anything for the moment, so he just casually suggested a lucky charm.
Hearing that the bet was so simple, Sun Liancheng smiled, "No problem, I agree. Let's not skip one thing, so it doesn't seem like I'm bullying you. I can give you two more things. As long as you can beat me, I'll do three things for you."
Good heavens, Mr. Sun, you added this yourself; I didn't force you.
Zhou Chen couldn't help but glance sideways. As expected of his God of Wealth, since Sun Liancheng was willing to give away two for free, there was no reason to refuse them.
I'm taking the gamble!
Zhou Chen smiled and said okay.
Leaving Sun Liancheng's office,
Zhou Chen found the gloomy weather today to be unusually pleasing to the eye.
There was no way around it; Sun Liancheng was very generous.
Three things,
What should he ask Sun Liancheng to do for him?
Or, how about letting Sun Liancheng work for him and become his employee?
A mischievous glint appeared on Zhou Chen's face.
