Chapter 526 Hidden Investment Master
The daily maintenance and security of the house were handed over to Wang Yongli, who was also his assistant, focusing more on life and security.
Therefore, Wang Yongli actually had a lot of people under him, not just Zou Xiaohe, Peng Yongjun and the others, but also a group of people working silently behind the scenes, otherwise wouldn't Du Shaojie's many properties across the country be wasted?
At noon.
Luo Xingye came to the old street as promised, and when he entered the door he saw a clean and tidy courtyard and a small building without any special features.
"I say, Mr. Du, you live here? This is too... simple, isn't it?"
This courtyard is a lifelong pursuit for ordinary people, but for someone of Du Shaojie's status, it is a bit unsuitable.
Luo Xingye grew up in a large family in Hong Kong, and went abroad to study after he became an adult. He couldn't quite understand this low-key style of doing things.
"It's not that I'm deliberately keeping a low profile. This is where I've lived since I came to Guangzhou. I've lived here for many years and have developed feelings for it. Don't look at me like that. We have other residences in Guangzhou."
Du Shaojie asked Li Yimei to help him greet the guests, and then went into the kitchen to cook.
Now, Luo Xingye found it even more incredible. It was difficult for him to combine a billionaire with a man who cooked by himself. Although he was not valued in the family, he had never done housework since he was a child.
Later, Li Yimei brought tea.
Luo Xingye took only one sip and his eyes lit up. This is definitely good tea. A can of such tea can buy a medium-sized building in Guangzhou.
In his heart, he immediately retracted his evaluation of someone's "simple". As the saying goes, the meat is not in the folds, and Mr. Du's life is not simple at all.
Du Shaojie quickly prepared a few dishes and called Luo Xingye to eat.
Luo Xingye sat at the table and saw that all kinds of spicy and hot flavors rushed straight to his head.
On the table were [Signature Maoxuewang], [Daqian Dry-fried Fish], [Spicy Flower Snail], [Stir-fried Kidney and Liver], [Braised Pork with Abalone], [Boiled Shrimp], [Lavender Platter] and [Assorted Vegetables].
Fortunately, there were a few non-spicy dishes.
Luo Xingye couldn't eat spicy food very well. It didn't matter if it happened once in a while, but it was rare for him to meet Chef Du in person, so he always wanted to eat more comfortably.
Du Shaojie asked Wang Yongli and the others to go to the kitchen to serve the dishes themselves. The dishes he made were very large, and the dishes he and the guests ate were all served in small plates, but they couldn't finish them.
"Boss Luo, come, let's have a drink together. I wish you a prosperous business."
After the two sat down and drank a glass, Luo Xingye started to eat the dishes impatiently.
The taste of the dishes really didn't disappoint him. Even if there were a few spicy dishes, he still ate them. Don't ask why. The answer is that they are too delicious and you can't stop eating them.
After tasting every dish, Luo Xingye picked up the wine glass and drank the second glass.
Du Shaojie opened a bottle of Moutai at noon, which he liked, but Luo Xingye was used to drinking foreign wine and red wine, and his fighting ability was not very good, so as the host, he stopped urging him to drink.
"The factory has started construction and will be completed and put into production before the end of the year. However, the funds on hand are a bit tight. I wonder if Mr. Du is willing to help me introduce a few investors?"
After three rounds of drinks, Luo Xingye got to the point.
Before he went north, he estimated that the funds might not be enough, but he was thinking of taking out a loan in the mainland at that time, so
he didn't take it too seriously at the time. As a result, his local loan was not smooth. The bank did not refuse this matter, but there was a requirement that it must be considered after the factory is capped and the equipment is put into place before it can consider lending.
This change made him very uncomfortable, and the partner also proposed that the scale of his new factory was not enough, and it would be best to double the production capacity.
So he thought of financing, and financing requires connections, so he first came to Du Shaojie. After all, he didn't know much about Du Shaojie's position in the domestic catering industry, but he knew the weight of [Dingxin International].
[Dingxin International] is well-known in the investment community of Hong Kong, and its business in the mainland is also booming.
Luo Xingye naturally would not go to some inexplicable companies, but would go directly to Du Shaojie.
"The matter of funds is easy to talk about. I will let someone talk to you later. Now let's not talk about work. The first priority is to eat and drink well. Come on, fill up, and do another one."
Du Shaojie smiled slightly. Luo Xingye had told him before that he knew that the other party did not have much funds.
It is normal to raise funds for doing business outside. Even if there is that financial ability, the company will often introduce several powerful shareholders.
Du Shaojie was too lazy to discuss details with the other party, and kept asking Luo Xingye to eat more dishes.
The wine was basically just enough. He didn't want to get the other party drunk and make it difficult to end.
The next day.
The manager of [Huaxin Investment] started investment negotiations with Luo Xingye. Huaxin is a domestic enterprise, but it does not prevent it from investing in Luo Xingye's company. Two
days later, Pang Weidong and Xu Bo also came over.
[Yuedong Entertainment] has now become a "cash cow" again, with super strong profitability, so both of them are very interested in investment projects.
However, these two people are not stupid and rich. If anyone wants to cheat them, first, they have to consider whether their IQ is enough, and second, whether their bones are hard enough.
Now, the two of them can be called "investment experts", after all, their successful investment cases are countless.
Du Shaojie didn't want to worry too much. After Huaxin's manager was authorized, he fully demonstrated the style of a professional investor and forced Luo Xingye to give in in many interest links.
Pang Weidong and the other two were not much better. After a while of arguing, they soon signed a financing agreement.
Luo Xingye was very satisfied. Although the other party was difficult to deal with in terms of valuation and return rate, he had to make concessions. But they had no interest in the control of the company and would not challenge his position.
And this is what he values most.
After the agreement was signed, Du Shaojie, Pang Weidong and Xu Bo jointly invested 100 million yuan in Luo Xingye's company and obtained 27% of the company's shares.
With the money, Luo Xingye directly doubled the scale of the factory, and the second phase of the project was immediately launched. The third phase of the project also passed the demonstration and will start construction this fall.
It didn't take long for the equipment ordered by Luo Xingye to be shipped. The reason why the efficiency was so high was that he was thinking about the equipment orders for the second and third phases of the project.
In early summer.
Du Shaojie and Qi Yan met in Chengdu.
The daughter only stayed for a few days before returning to the capital. The two of them had a rare opportunity to spend time together, playing here for more than half a month.
After Qi Yan left, Du Shaojie was not in a hurry to leave.
He and his partners in Sichuan snacks developed several new varieties and learned a lot of useful things from each other.
This matter actually didn't need him, he just joined in because he was interested.
It happened that Liao Yongxin and Zhou Huai'en's families were also in Chengdu during this period. He often took time to chat with the two old comrades, which made them very happy.
It's interesting to say that Liao Yongxin and Zhou Huai'en quarreled whenever they were together, but the relationship between the two was very good. The two families often went out to travel together and were together almost everywhere.
In addition, when he had time, he would also go to Yi Chunmei for tea.
After Yi Chunmei's cooking school was acquired by [Beichen Education], she did nothing else. She drank tea and played cards every day, and her life was like a fairy.
She had a small share in [Beichen Education], and it was with these shares that she would never worry about food and drink in her life.
Although this city is not a first-tier city in China, life here is very comfortable. In addition to the climate, Du Shaojie really likes it here.
During this period, both Li Ershao and Yin Qiang were very quiet.
Du Shaojie only had such a period of leisure time, but he couldn't do nothing all day. He then began his routine inspection, starting from the southwest area.
Many people couldn't understand Du Shaojie's lax state. Even Liao Yongxin felt that his apprentice should be more diligent and continue to make [Bailian Catering] bigger and stronger.
Only Du Shaojie himself understood that he had reached the ceiling of the catering industry. Let alone continuing to expand, it was not easy to just keep the current fruits.
Besides, few people in the outside world knew how amazing his achievements in the investment field were.
The shares hidden in the corners of his hands could be sold at random to realize huge amounts of cash.
But he would not argue with anyone. After all, he had to walk his own way.
Du Shaojie and his party traveled around the land of Bashu and then went to Chang'an.
[Beichen Education] has a large-scale teaching base here, and it continuously supplies various talents to [Northwest Noodle House] every year.
The success of [Northwest Noodle House] is not only due to the outstanding ability of the operator, but also reflects the profound food culture of the Sanqin land.
After all, the main varieties of noodles in the noodle house all belong to the Sanqin land.
His visit this time is different from the past. In the past, because of the inspection, he basically wandered around in big cities.
After the inspection this time, he took Wang Yongli and others to some small places to look for local specialties.
He learned to make [臊子面] with people in the countryside, and learned to make [凉皮] with people in a small county town, and enjoyed it.
However, the scenery of the loess plateau still seems too desolate, and people in many local places also live very hard.
He couldn't help but think of a movie, where a rich man who wanted to experience life was thrown in the countryside here. After a month, he saw meat and his eyes were green.
The local problems may not be gradually solved until 10 or 20 years later, and he personally does not have that ability.
However, he did not do nothing.
He visited everywhere in the county, and no matter what snacks he wanted to learn, there would always be people who would enthusiastically teach him.
When he left, he donated a primary school to the county in his own name. Studying hard can change the fate of many people, and this is also his expectation.
"Boss, where are we going next?"
