Anyone who has run a business knows that once an industry takes off, countless others will emerge.
For example, if someone sells roasted sunflower seeds outside a movie theater, there might not be any counterfeit products this week, but once others have calculated your profits, they'll start selling them next week!
The same applies to the commercial city; there must be quite a few enemies like Brother Niu!
I wonder if he has any wealthy and powerful enemies!
If someone is determined to suppress him, they might try to take advantage of him when they see the commercial city is making a lot of profit!
They can both seize this business and severely suppress Brother Niu!
However, if he has invested a lot of money in the early stages of the commercial city and has built commercial cities in multiple districts, others who want to enter this industry later will have to consider whether they have enough funds!
Lu Zhiye's words were like a heavy hammer blow, striking the hearts of the people present.
Brother Niu completely shook off his previous displeasure, his face showing a slight hint of flattery: "Boss Lu, what you said does make sense!"
But I don't quite understand. Didn't you consider this when you were in the electronics market in Shenzhen?
"The electronics market doesn't seem very large. Isn't Mr. Lu worried that others might do the same thing?"
Lu Zhiye let out a hearty laugh: "It seems that Brother Niu only knows one side of me, not the other!"
The electronics city isn't very big, but I've already negotiated agreements with the government for several plots of land nearby!
What I want to do is to build a commercial district nearby, so that people can come here to eat, drink, have fun, and solve all their needs for food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation!
Even if someone else wanted to establish such a trendsetter, they would have to consider whether they could surpass the convenience of my location!
The things Lu Zhiye said were unknown not only to Brother Niu, but also to many people in Pengcheng.
After all, the real estate industry was just emerging in the early days, so who would have thought that it would be expanded into a huge commercial street?
Brother Niu subconsciously swallowed, and he gently pinched his thigh to clear his mind!
Then, looking intently at Lu Zhiye, he asked, "So, Mr. Lu, how do you think we should cooperate?"
"Our initial cooperation model was based on profit sharing, and if we establish a company later, we will definitely share profits according to shares!"
Of course, these are all things to be discussed later, since the commercial city has not yet been built, and we do not know whether it will succeed or fail!
How about this, as Brother Niu said, I'll put in 60% of the investment capital and not participate in the operation!
Profit sharing will be done as Brother Niu said!
I have an additional requirement: all my investment funds must be recouped within five years!
If we don't break even, our revenue-sharing model may need to be changed!
Brother Niu's eyes lit up. Five years is neither a long nor a short time, but with the current economic development model, Brother Niu is confident that he can definitely break even!
He nodded vigorously: "Okay, then let's set a five-year timeframe!"
Write a contract, and five years later, the business model may have changed!
Perhaps we should establish a large trading company?
"The dispute will be resolved through further negotiation based on shareholdings."
Lu Zhiye nodded without refuting, but when the contract was finalized, he added a sentence: "Although I am not involved in the operation, I have veto power before major decisions are made!"
Brother Niu was stunned; this was a huge constraint for him!
Does he have to consult Lu Zhiye before making any decisions?
Lu Zhiye disagrees, so he can't do it yet?
Seeing that Brother Niu still had some concerns, Lu Zhiye smiled and said, "The major decision I'm talking about is limited to things like equity dilution."
For example, Brother Niu didn't have enough funds to invest in the early stages, so he wanted to bring in a partner!
I completely disagree with this!
Choosing to cooperate with Brother Niu is entirely based on your abilities and conditions!
I don't want another person to come along and muddy the waters!
If this happens, I have the right to veto it!
Regarding whether the commercial city is profitable or not, and whether its business model has changed, I fully respect your opinion after we have discussed it!
But I believe Brother Niu will also consider other people's opinions!
"This is natural, this is natural!"
Brother Niu was very satisfied with Lu Zhiye's words. He rubbed his hands together and asked, "After we sign this contract, when will the funds arrive?"
There are some things I'm afraid I need to discuss with Comrade Lu first!
As you can see, I have so much stock piled up in my hands right now, and it hasn't all been fully recovered yet!
I currently only have 100,000 yuan in funds.
I don't know much about construction. I can only determine the approximate cost after Mr. Lu has prepared the architectural plan and the preliminary tender documents.
It may take two to three months for all the goods I have to be sold!
"This...this won't cause any problems, will it?"
"It won't affect anything. Once my initial funding is secured, I will also set up a construction company here."
In many places, contractors typically settle accounts at the end of the year, and it's okay if it's delayed by a few months!
So as long as Brother Niu keeps up with the subsequent funding, that's all that matters!
"Once we've finalized things on this side, I'll call Pengcheng to get the design drawings ready, and then we'll start calculating the initial funding needed!"
Brother Niu's mouth was practically stretched to his waistband: "Hey, hey, okay, I'll get rid of this batch of goods as soon as possible!"
Lu Zhiye, who was about to take a step, stopped in his tracks upon hearing this: "Brother Niu, it will take some time for the design drawings to be completed. In the next few days, we can first determine a location!"
I'll have someone talk to the compound. As for you, just hold your position for now and do what you need to do!
It must have taken a lot of effort for Brother Niu to get out of the black market back then, right?
What do you think would happen if those people found out you were planning to do this?
Brother Niu's face was as black as the bottom of a pot; he naturally knew what was going to happen!
People in the black market have varying qualities; some are loyal and genuinely wish you well!
Some people just can't stand to see you doing better than them!
If people find out that I'm working on this, they might try to cause trouble under the guise of seeking refuge with me!
"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Lu. I'll proceed according to the previous procedure!"
After settling things here, Lu Zhiye left with Xiao Liuzi.
Stepping outside and basking in the warm sunlight, Lu Zhiye stretched and yawned: "I didn't expect to gain so much from coming here!"
He wanted to create such a commercial city, and it was Brother Niu's idea that inspired him!
Therefore, he is willing to compromise on profits!
