"Boss, how about it? Do you need me to help you make a reservation? Boss, this kind of villa is rare in ten years. Not to mention its location, but its environment, it is really unparalleled. Within 3 kilometers around, there are

The height limit is 15 meters, which means that the villa here is the tallest building, and there are many buildings around it.

There are centuries-old trees and small natural lakes. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the place with the best air in the entire Dongdu. The design of the villa can be said to be unique. It was designed by the world's top WAT design firm.

There are 18 villas, divided into 8 styles and 8 apartment types. It can be said that each villa has its own unique style.

It has its own characteristics, each building is unique, and there will not be another one in the world." Xu Ziqiang was a little excited. He basically knew Zhuo Ziyuan's background. Originally, he thought that behind Youdao Fund, besides Zhuo Ziyuan, there were also

Some financial backers he didn't know, but judging from the profits Zhuo Ziyuan made at his disposal, it seemed that they

It can basically be judged that Youdao is Zhuo Ziyuan's sole proprietorship or family asset. Two consecutive expenditures of US$50 million were given to Zhuo Ziyuan's companies. It is already very obvious. With the money Zhuo Ziyuan earned,

Not to mention buying a villa, even buying the entire Tan Mansion is more than enough.

In fact, these views also reflect Xu Ziqiang's own limitations. How does he know how the homes of those Fortune 500 and celebrities on the global rich list are designed and built? These people all have their own separate gardens.

Land, just design it casually and make it

Building a building costing hundreds of millions of dollars is common, but in the eyes of Xu Ziqiang, in the current China, the Tan Mansion in front of him is the most top-notch existence. As long as he can own a villa here, even if it is owned by his own boss, then

It is also something worthy of pride and bragging.

After Zhuo Ziyuan listened to Xu Ziqiang's words, he felt like he was a salesman. He remembered the advantages of Tan Mansion so clearly. He must also be yearning for such a residence. It's a pity that a villa like this is not only

The money to buy a house, as well as the cost of maintenance, property management, housekeeping, etc., must be continuously invested every year, Zhuo Ziyuan

It is estimated that it is impossible to buy a place worth millions, so only big bosses are willing to spend money to buy such a place. If ordinary workers want to buy it, they have to carefully consider the future risks. Of course, in Zhuo Ziyuan's eyes, it is completely unacceptable.

There are risks. The price increase of real estate is far greater than these daily costs. As long as you have money, you can make a lot of money by buying it even if you don't live in it.

Xu Ziqiang's words really made Zhuo Ziyuan's inner fluctuations stronger. After thinking about it, he said, "Let's make an appointment in the name of Youdao. If you want to buy their house, you should need qualification approval, right?"

This is also what Zhuo Ziyuan heard about in later generations. When looking at a house, you need to submit a proof of assets, and when buying a house, you need to pay a deposit of millions in advance. However, the proof of assets is easy for Youdao. Just type out the account balance and show it to them.

.

The reason why Zhuo Ziyuan made this decision in front of everyone on this occasion is because he is not just an individual now, he is also the cornerstone of the Yuanfang Group. He wants to tell everyone here that he, Zhuo Ziyuan, is rich.

, don’t worry about future development prospects, just follow me and work hard.

Sure enough, when Zhuo Ziyuan said this, all the men, including Lu Tao, felt a little overjoyed.

"Okay, boss, just wait for my good news." Xu Ziqiang replied happily.

"It seems that you have made a lot of money." He Xia muttered to Zhuo Ziyuan, who was sitting next to him.

"It's not bad, it's enough to take a few years of work away from home." Zhuo Ziyuan whispered to her.

Xu Xuehua just shook his head, it was really luxurious. I originally thought that Zhuo Ziyuan was quite stingy and never bought luxury brands for clothes or anything else. But it turned out to be a good thing. They just came to a luxurious mansion and could buy you a lifetime of luxuries.

Li Xinyuan is also happy. She is happy for her brother Ziyuan. In just a short time, he has changed from a little boy who studied piano and painting to a big boss who spends a lot of money. Those things about playing piano and painting seem like yesterday.

"I heard that Tan Mansion will be delivered by the end of next year, Ziyuan. When the time comes, we will be the first batch to go in and visit, so that we can have a goal and something to look forward to in life." Lu Tao also joined in the fun.

"Yes, yes, we must be the first batch of guests to visit. This is also something we can brag about." Du Nan said with a smile.

"Okay, let's talk about it then. We don't know whether to buy it or not." Zhuo Ziyuan was speechless. Don't make everyone act like they have never seen the world. In fact, he was quite excited inside. He had never been there before.

Considering this aspect, when everyone mentioned it today, he realized that he still yearned for a mansion.

Next, everyone was still immersed in the dream of buying a luxury house, and the discussion continued. During lunch, they talked about those houses, villas and other things.

After the meal, several men helped clean up the kitchen, while the three women were eating fruit in the living room.

While washing the dishes, Xu Ziqiang said, "Boss, Liu Bin told me that Zhiyuan is planning to set up an automobile website. Youdao has invested in two automobile websites before, Kaka and Atlantic Automobile. I think it is better to start research and development all over again.

Acquiring them directly can also speed up the project progress."

"Yes, boss, when the time comes, we only need to set up a link jump, and all their customers will automatically be directed to Autohome." Liu Bin echoed from the side.

Zhuo Ziyuan thought for a while, and it seemed that Youdao had invested in such a car website, and their proposal was indeed a good one. "Have you mentioned it to Mr. He?"

"No, didn't we talk about this on the way here today?" Liu Bin took the initiative to take over the conversation. He is He Xia's direct subordinate.

"Then we'll discuss it with He Xia later. You guys should also contact and communicate with her more. I'm hosting this dinner to let you have a deeper understanding of her and facilitate future work cooperation." Zhuo Zi

Said far away.

"We understand." Du Nan and Liu Bin said in unison.

No matter how Zhuo Ziyuan listened, he felt that the tone of these two guys was a bit weird, but he didn't know what was wrong.

After cleaning up, Zhuo Ziyuan asked Du Nan and Lu Tao to chat with Xu Xuehua, and called He Xia up. They went to the balcony on the second floor to discuss what had just happened.

"Actually, I have also considered this direction, but I didn't know that Youdao has invested in two automobile websites. So, Mr. Xu, which one of these two websites do you think is easier to acquire?" He Xia asked.

"Absolutely. They haven't achieved profitability yet, and they don't have many users. The cost of acquisition shouldn't be high. How about buying both companies together?" Xu Ziqiang suggested.

"No need." Zhuo Ziyuan and He Xia said at the same time.

Zhuo Zi glanced at He Xia from afar and motioned for her to speak.

"You can talk to two companies together, but you will clearly tell them to only acquire one. Obviously, I have a lot of capital in my hands. Once I enter this market, these websites without capital support can only barely survive, giving them a way to open up to the outside world."

Uncertainty in development, then we have room to lower prices. On the other hand, if we only choose one of the two, then they will inevitably give up some persistence for this quota, which is also conducive to our acquisition. Third, we are now

also

It is in the early stages of development. Too many non-direct personnel will share our own influence. If the original team cohesion of the two companies is strong, a tripartite situation will be formed, which is not conducive to the start of the website. We will acquire one now and develop it later.

, it is difficult for the original team of this company to compete, so they can only invest in the arms of distant places. As for other websites, once they lose hope, they will naturally come to ask for acquisition." He Xia talked eloquently.

Zhuo Ziyuan nodded and thought about it with himself.

Xu Ziqiang gave a thumbs up, "Mr. He is very considerate."

He Xia glanced at Zhuo Ziyuan and said, "Look at all the investment targets of Youdao in the future. Will they share it with me regularly to avoid a situation like today again? This time it was discovered early and we haven't started it yet.

, it’s not a loss, but in the future our family will have a big business, so we can’t let such negligence happen again, right?”

It's strange that Zhuo Ziyuan and He Xia still don't have a formal name for each other. Basically, when He Xia and Zhuo Ziyuan are alone, they don't call each other, they just talk back and forth, and they talk to Liu Bin and Lu Tao.

When mentioning each other, He Xia will say boss, and Zhuo Ziyuan will also say Mr. He. But when the two people face each other, they never call each other boss or Mr. He. Just like now, with four people here, He Xia

This sentence was obviously addressed to Zhuo Ziyuan, but it did not address him in any way.

Zhuo Ziyuan felt that calling this girl Boss He was a bit awkward. Just like Xu Xuehua, calling her sister was even more awkward. The same was true for He Xia. Asking her to call this girl Boss Zhuo Ziyuan made her hair stand on end just thinking about it.

"Okay, Lao Xu, remember this and give Yuanfang an investment list every quarter."

Xu Ziqiang nodded in agreement. Zhuo Ziyuan only asked him to give the list, not the details. He was relieved.

"I am planning to acquire another logistics company. Does Youdao have investment in this area?" He Xia asked.

"No, Youdao's targets are all Internet companies or Internet-related companies." Xu Ziqiang replied.

In fact, the logistics industry is an Internet-related industry, and the development of shopping websites is inseparable from logistics companies, but Xu Ziqiang has not thought about this aspect.

"Do you have any merger and acquisition targets?" Zhuo Ziyuan asked. He knew about the major express delivery companies in later generations, but logistics does not necessarily mean express delivery companies. He also understood this. He just wanted to know if this girl had already fallen in love with someone.

A future big shot.

"Not yet. This merger and acquisition is not urgent. I can set up a logistics team first, and then find the target slowly. This way I can escape easily in the future. I will also keep the management team of the future merger and acquisition targets, and directly move all employees to

In Yuanfang Logistics, there is no need to look for candidates for the general manager of logistics."

Zhuo Ziyuan agreed with his idea. Mergers and acquisitions suddenly appeared in Zhuo Ziyuan's mind. Automotive networks and logistics can be merged and acquired. Can entertainment companies be merged and acquired? Will some production companies or entertainment companies face bankruptcy? Instead of

After struggling to acquire their copyrights, is it more cost-effective to directly take over the other company as a whole? Zhuo Ziyuan thinks this is a problem. The entertainment industry is still very competitive, and some small production companies are definitely not easy to deal with.

Similarly, can convenience stores be acquired directly? “Is it possible for convenience stores to acquire other brands?”

"I just paid attention to the convenience store market and don't know much about it. Why don't I ask Du Nan to come up and ask?" He Xia said.

"Lao Xu, Liu Bin, you two go down and call Du Nan." Zhuo Ziyuan spoke.

After Du Nan went upstairs, He Xia got straight to the point, "I discussed with your boss that in order to expand rapidly, we still have a merger and acquisition path that we can take. Do you have any ideas in this regard, or which chain convenience stores are on the market?"

, do you think they are already walking on the edge of the cliff?"

Du Nan thought for a while and said, "Boss, Mr. He, I have also considered this aspect, but to be honest, there is basically no need for us to take over a convenience store that is facing losses. Part of their losses may be due to poor management, or

The service is not good, but there will inevitably be problems with location selection. If we merge with them and we don’t accept those non-performing assets, I think we will still get a good deal.

, However, if these non-performing assets have to be included in Wanjia, I feel that the gains outweigh the losses, but this is indeed a direction. We can set up a special team to investigate. There are two convenience store chains in my mind, but they are just

Dongdu's, Guangming and Youjia, and those national chain stores, if we want to merge and acquire them, the possibility is too small. As for those in other cities, I haven't been involved that deeply."

He Xia thought for a while and said, "In this way, future mergers and acquisitions are also within the scope of Wanjia's expansion considerations, not just brand chain stores, but also those small stores opened by individuals. We can not only sell franchise plans to them, but also

Convince them to transfer, this will be a good opportunity for expansion."

"Since you are considering these mergers and acquisitions, I think you should form a mergers and acquisitions team with a smaller number of people. Du Nan's main task is still used for regular expansion tasks. If the promotion staff encounters those who are willing to merge and acquire, they will submit it.

The M&A team will be responsible for it. Once a convenience store is successfully acquired, Du Nan will take over it directly. Of course, this M&A team will not only serve Wanjia, they will serve the entire Yuanfang." Zhuo Ziyuan suggested.

"Okay." He Xia nodded and replied.

"Mr. Du, you go down first. I have something to communicate with the boss alone." He Xia suddenly said.

After Du Nan left, Zhuo Ziyuan looked at He Xia strangely. What was it that he wanted to hide from Du Nan?

"You just said that the merger and acquisition group must have legal affairs. What I mean is that Yuanfang Group must set up its own legal department. It is not only internal affairs, but also good at handling external affairs. For ordinary small things, we should have our own

We will complete the legal affairs, and only when it reaches the litigation level, we will leave it to Lawyer Lu and others." He Xia said seriously.

Zhuo Ziyuan glanced at He Xia at a glance. No wonder she was going to avoid others. Du Nan and some of them were close to Lu Tao. From emotional speaking, Zhuo Ziyuan didn't want this, but from the perspective of the company's business, this is

In the inevitable trend, he has never thought about it before.

Zhuo Ziyuan finally nodded, "You can operate it first, I will say hello to him."

Next, the two went downstairs and chatted with everyone. Everyone's talks were very good. After a while, the two were chatting together, and another person talked to each other. Several people discussed together for a while.
Chapter completed!
