I Have 100 Million Stores

Chapter 299 Doing a billion at once? (Second update)

Around one thirty in the afternoon.

Cao Xingyu came to his office in Shunjie Building.

Before he could warm up the stool, Liu Ting knocked on the door and walked into the office.

It is worth mentioning that Liu Ting specially asked the company's front desk to notify her immediately after seeing Mr. Cao's arrival, so every time Liu Ting can appear in Cao Xingyu's office in such a timely manner.

This is also a change that Liu Ting made after knowing that Mr. Cao is usually very busy. She seldom calls Cao Xingyu on her own initiative now. Unless it is a particularly urgent matter, she usually waits for Cao Xingyu. Report to work only after coming to the company.

"Mr. Cao." The joy on Liu Ting's face overflowed at this moment, and she said with a smile:

"The measures you set yesterday are really effective!"

"Just one morning, plus less than two hours in the afternoon, a total of three to four hours, the matter of our Shiwang brand preparatory store caused a huge sensation in Sansha City and on the Internet!"

"The most direct data is that the DAU of our member APP today has more than tripled than usual! It's only one o'clock in the afternoon. By night, this data is estimated to have to rise!"

"And that message board has aroused the enthusiasm of members to participate. There are a total of 68 pre-stores and 68 message boards, and the largest number of messages has reached tens of thousands!"

"As of five minutes ago, the total number of messages accumulated on all message boards has exceeded 500,000!"

"There are so many messages?" Hearing this, Cao Xingyu exclaimed with surprise on his face. Although he had an optimistic estimate on this matter, he never expected it to be so high.

Know that the day is not over yet!

And more importantly, the Shiwang brand APP can only be used by members who log in!

In other words, there are currently less than one million members of the Shiwang brand, but they have sent 500,000 messages in such a short period of time!

This amount is quite terrifying!

It also reflects the current stickiness of Shiwang brand members, how exaggerated it is!

"Yes, that's all!" Liu Ting nodded heavily and explained:

"Members started playing with each other on the message board!"

"Give all kinds of weird names to our reserve shop!"

"Among them, some couples even used their names to show off their love on message boards! The indirect evolution has formed a trend of naming shops!"

“And in addition to our message boards,

Xiaoye's video is also a gathering point for comments and discussions. There are 20,000 to 30,000 bullet screens, and tens of thousands of comments! In addition, on Weibo, Tieba and other social platforms, it also aroused a lot of heated discussions, among which the Sansha City Tieba is the most lively! They were all slaughtered by our incident this time! "

"It's only been a few hours. Wait for a little longer, and the news will ferment. Our IP of 'Shiwang Brand Preparatory Store' can be regarded as an instant hit!"

"Hehe, that's really not bad." Hearing this, Cao Xingyu showed a satisfied smile.

Take out the 500,000 data on the Shiwang brand message board and compare it with Ye Xiufei's video comment data.

It is very intuitive to see that the participation enthusiasm of Shiwang brand APP members is far stronger than that of ordinary people.

You must know that Ye Xiufei's video has at least millions of views, but if you add up the barrage and comments in the comment area, it is only over 40,000.

But Shiwang brand members abruptly posted 500,000 comments!

Amazing participation rate!

This user viscosity, speaking out, will shock countless practitioners in the software industry!

As for the hot discussion on the Internet, Cao Xingyu actually doesn't particularly care about it. What really makes him happy is that the message board of the Shiwang brand APP has had an effect.

This not only increases the daily activity of the Shiwang APP, but more importantly, it means that users are not resistant to the interactive functions launched by the Shiwang brand. On the contrary, judging from the current situation, the acceptance of members is quite high.

This is good news for Cao Xingyu who is planning to launch more social functions in the future!

He can consider trying more social scene functions next!

"By the way, Mr. Cao, users have a lot of opinions on this message board!" Liu Ting said after pursing her lips.

"Oh? There are big opinions?" Cao Xingyu hadn't been happy for a few seconds, but he heard such news. Could it be that he wants to promote social interaction?

After his heart skipped a beat, Cao Xingyu frowned and asked, "What do you mean? Are you not very accepting of message boards?"

"No, no! Mr. Cao misunderstood!" Hearing this, Liu Ting quickly explained:

"It's not that the acceptance rate is not high, but because the acceptance rate is too high. They have made a lot of comments on our message board function!"

"For example, our message board is too simple now. We can only leave messages directly, and there is no way to reply to others."

"And even if it is a message, there is no @others function, and it is very troublesome for some people to interact with others there!"

"Oh, so it is like this." Hearing this, Cao Xingyu let out a breath after realizing that it was not what he thought.

To put it simply, the message board in the Shiwang APP at this time is more like a web chat room on the Internet more than ten years ago.

It's the kind of one-time information that is constantly swiped out.

This mode of interaction is very difficult, and it is more like self-entertainment and self-talk.

At the same time, Cao Xingyu also understood why Shiwang APP has so many comments.

Like today's comment area, such as Weibo, you can reply and comment directly under a certain comment, and then fold the redundant ones without displaying them.

In many cases, a hot comment may have thousands or even tens of thousands of replies.

But in the end, it all counts as just one comment.

However, the Shiwang APP now counts as one, and it is reasonable to have a total of more than 500,000.

After thinking about it, Cao Xingyu smiled and said:

"It's indeed a bit rudimentary. After all, it was added temporarily yesterday, and the time is a bit tight."

"It doesn't matter, let's optimize slowly. Software is a process of continuous iterative updates. No software can be perfect from the beginning."

"You go and arrange it. Arrange the first team of the R\u0026D center to improve and enrich the message board as soon as possible. Basic functions such as liking, replying to others, @, etc., should be added as soon as possible."

"In addition, let them read more user feedback from members. After all, user feedback is the most authentic data and the most valuable. Let them refer to user opinions."

"Okay! I'll make arrangements later!" Liu Ting nodded, in other words:

"In addition, Mr. Cao, after the news of this reserve store spread, more people came to know about our consulting services."

"The 3 billion fund-raising target you set last time, Mr. Cao, has been successfully completed!"

"What? So fast?" Cao Xingyu couldn't help being a little surprised when he heard the news suddenly.

To be honest, in Cao Xingyu's mind, among the tasks he arranged, he thought that the consulting service should take the most time.

After all, 3 billion is not a small amount, nor is it just 300 million before.

Whoever thought, this is done?

It's only been three days, right?

Even if the IP of the preparatory store is famous, it is impossible to have an effect so quickly!

When did it become so easy to raise money?

Facts have proved that Cao Xingyu underestimated the temptation of consulting services to everyone, and also underestimated the speed of the spread of this matter.

"Mr. Cao, I don't think this matter has much to do with the announcement of the reserve store." After pursing her lips, Liu Ting said:

"At a quarter past ten in the morning, not long after our update announcement was issued, a group of people came to the company."

"They immediately signed a consulting service with an investment of one billion yuan!"

"If it weren't for this group of people, it would probably take a day or two before we reach the goal of three billion."

"One billion?" Hearing this, Cao Xingyu said secretly, "How many people are there?"

"Four people." Liu Ting replied.

"Four people took out one billion yuan?" Cao Xingyu asked doubtfully:

"While the rate of return on our consulting services is not bad, it's only for the average person."

"For those who have the strength to spend hundreds of millions of funds, how can they be short of projects? Taking ten thousand steps back, even if they take the funds to negotiate with the bank, they can get a good interest point, The high probability will not be lower than ours, and it is safer."

"But the other party let go of a safer and more reliable project, and came to invest in a project like ours with such a large amount of money? What are you trying to do?"

What Cao Xingyu said is in line with the social reality.

As the saying goes, rich people get richer, this saying is not true at all.

The reason why the gap between rich and poor is getting bigger and bigger is not without reason.

Because the richer the people, the wider the circle and the more contacts, not to mention the projects that make a lot of money, at least such financial management projects, they are not lacking at all, because of the huge amount of funds in their hands, It is their bargaining chip.

Therefore, the consulting service of Shiwang Group may have a 10% rate of return, but this rate of return is completely out of the reach of the truly wealthy.

At most, it is to tempt those petty bourgeoisie and middle class who have millions or tens of millions.

For those who can allocate hundreds of millions of cash outflows, their actual assets are far greater than this amount, and they will not be interested in the consulting services of Shiwang Group at all.

And four people took out one billion yuan, 250 million yuan per capita. How would such a big boss come to participate in this kind of project?

This is also something Cao Xingyu can't understand.

"I don't know, I also feel a little weird," Liu Ting recalled:

"I heard the report from the people below. Those four people seem to have come prepared, and they rushed over to sign the contract!"

"They are completely different from the investors we have contacted before. Normal people would ask here and there, worrying about this and that, but those four people didn't ask anything! It seems that they have made up their minds to invest!"

"Before, the employees below joked that it would be great if they were all investors like this, and it would reduce a lot of workload."

"At the time, I felt a little too abnormal."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Cao Xingyu raised his eyebrows.

Just ran over and asked nothing.

Either it has been investigated long ago, or it has other purposes.

After a pause, Cao Xingyu suddenly changed his words: "Is there any action from Mei Tuan?"

"After they left yesterday, there seems to be no movement from Meituan, and no landlord has contacted us for the time being." Liu Ting replied without thinking, and suddenly raised her eyebrows belatedly:

"Mr. Cao, do you mean that these people may have been sent by Mei Tuan?"

"It's possible." Cao Xingyu replied noncommittally.

In that way, they would directly bring one billion to the door, and sign the contract without saying or asking.

Cao Xingyu couldn't think of any other possibility except that Mei Tuan could have such a big deal.

The point is that the two sides just broke up. Judging from Mei Tuan's execution ability, taking new actions so quickly is completely in line with their style.

Of course, it is not ruled out that there are such rich people, and those who have money and have no place to invest, this is also uncertain.

"Then should we arrange someone to investigate this matter?" Liu Ting asked with a frown:

"If it's really Mei Tuan, then why don't we cancel this agreement? Otherwise, we will give them 10% of the income in the future for no reason. What kind of moth comes out among them, it may affect our plan!"

"Forget it, no need, it doesn't matter." Hearing this, Cao Xingyu smiled indifferently and waved his hands.

Although he also felt that something was wrong, since the agreement had already been signed and the other party had paid all the consulting fees, there was no need to care about other things at all.

As long as the other party can take out the money, it will not affect the work of the reserve store.

Even if the other party is Mei Tuan, holding some unreasonable thoughts, it is actually irrelevant to the overall situation.

"If it's really Mei Tuan, it would be interesting. Do you want to consume me, or do you want me to burn money faster? No matter what your plans are, you will definitely not be able to do what you want, ha ha." Cao Xingyu said happily in his heart.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Cao Xingyu still did not forget to add a sentence for the sake of safety: "You can ask the legal counsel to check the consulting service agreement again. There are no loopholes or loopholes. We must ensure that we have unconditional acquisition rights and management rights. They It's just the people who put up the money."

"At the same time, we must clarify the terms of breach of contract. If the project starts to be implemented and the other party wants to withdraw, then in addition to the unconditional ownership of the assets, we must also give us a certain amount of compensation."

Obviously, after being attacked by Mei Tuan last time, Cao Xingyu is now most concerned about the breach of contract for any contract agreement.

"Okay! I'll make arrangements later." Liu Ting on the side nodded, and after recording it, continued:

"By the way, Mr. Cao."

"The 3 billion yuan of consulting services this time, we divide according to the threshold of 5 million yuan, and calculate a consulting service for every 5 million yuan, and charge a consulting fee."

"Counting it all down, there are a total of 600 investments this time."

"However, since many internal employees of the company participated in this investment, the consulting fee has a discount from the original 88,000 yuan, so the cost of this piece is slightly different."

"A total of more than 47 million consulting fees were charged, which is more than 5 million less than the original 52.8 million consulting fees!"

Speaking of this, Liu Ting couldn't help being moved and admired in her heart.

This is equivalent to distributing more than 5 million yuan to the employees as benefits!

Mr. Cao is the only one who can do this kind of thing again and again!

"Oh, that's right. If you don't tell me, I really haven't calculated it." Hearing this, Cao Xingyu said happily:

"The income of more than 40 million yuan is estimated not only to offset the labor costs we have invested in consulting services, but also to earn some money."

"It's definitely profitable, and the profit is quite high! It can even be said to be the biggest profit point of our group at present!" Liu Ting said with a smile:

"Because after a series of site selection preparations in the early stage, as well as the experience accumulated by our own more than 300 stores, as well as the supply chain and other resources accumulated by our stores, a series of background support systems have been established. It's quite complete, and it's not a lot of work that allows us to invest in consulting services."

"The main work of the consulting service is to do some planning, specific site selection, subsequent decoration, supply chain, etc. are all supported by the store management team, and these things are originally things that belong to the store management department."

"Therefore, at present, our specific implementation team responsible for consulting services actually has a total of 22 people, and the cost of manpower is not much."

"Even if the man-hours consumed by supporting the team are counted, the cost we spent is actually not much!"

"In other words, consulting services are really a huge bonus!"

"En." Cao Xingyu nodded, and he recognized what Liu Ting said.

And that's exactly what happened.

As Shiwang Group's resources in all aspects become more and more perfect, it does not need to invest too much energy in opening a store.

It is more about coordinating all aspects of manpower, such as exterior decoration company, procurement of facilities and equipment, raw material supply, etc. If there is a fixed source of supply, this work is actually very simple and does not take much time at all.

Especially now that Shiwang Group has gradually pursued standardization. The preparatory stores are all built according to the standardized model. The same type of stores are similar, so the final store opening work is naturally easier.

Therefore, it may take less than a month for the 3 billion projects to be fully arranged.

And how much does it cost per month for those people who invest?

Counting too much, including all kinds of overtime pay and benefits, one or two million is the sky.

"It's true that consulting companies make money." Cao Xingyu muttered.

"Well, I made more than 40 million yuan in just three days. Even some giants are not as good as us at this speed of making money! If we don't carry out follow-up repurchases." Liu Ting touched her head and said longingly:

"Then our Shiwang Group has found a stable way to make money!"

Liu Ting first guessed that Mr. Cao was planning to use consulting services to make money, and the real goal of Shiwang Group is to be a consulting company!

It's a pity that she only guessed the beginning, and she didn't expect that there would be another repurchase later.

"What are you thinking?" Hearing this, Cao Xingyu couldn't help but sneered and said:

"Without repurchase, how could there be the current situation? How could so many people be willing to invest this money to participate so quickly?"

"Yes." Liu Ting smiled slightly, and then couldn't help asking weakly:

"Mr. Cao, after raising 3 billion this time, the third batch of consulting services should not be available for the time being, right?"

"Well, no matter how much money we have, we don't have such a big team to support it, so don't worry." Cao Xingyu said with a smile:

"Now that the funds are in place, then you should go back and plan this batch according to my previous arrangement, and try to build more commercial streets. The overall goal is still what I said before, to monopolize the shops on those commercial streets. Go to the catering industry."

"Okay, Mr. Cao!" Liu Ting secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She was really worried that Mr. Cao would say something amazing: another three billion.

"However." After Cao Xingyu thought about it, it was not unbelievable to prepare in advance, so he added:

"The third batch of consulting services can be planned and prepared first."

"Gulong." Hearing this, Liu Ting couldn't help swallowing, what was she thinking?

"What's wrong?" Seeing this, Cao Xingyu asked.

"It's okay, I'll go back and make arrangements." Liu Ting squeezed out a smile, knowing what Mr. Cao decided, she couldn't change anything, so just lie down

After a pause, Liu Ting said in other words: "By the way, Mr. Cao, there is one more strange thing."

"Six people applied for the job in the morning"

Hearing this, Cao Xingyu thought what was going on, but this is the end?

He immediately waved his hand and interrupted: "Just let HR watch over the recruitment, and you don't need to report to me."

The headquarters of Shiwang Group has grown to more than 200 employees. Except for the few people who were recruited by Cao Xingyu in the early days to build the basic framework of the company, he has not participated in the follow-up recruitment work, and no one has participated. necessary.

Unless he fell in love with someone like Cai Qiang, it wouldn't be worth his while.

"Mr. Cao, it's not an ordinary job application. Those six people are not the interviewees appointed by our personnel, but came directly to the door. The key point is that their identities are quite powerful." Stop the topic, but keep talking.

"Oh?" Cao Xingyu raised his eyebrows, motioning for the other party to continue.

Seeing this, Liu Ting continued: "They are all members of the Xie Group."

"Huh?" Now even Cao Xingyu was a little surprised: "A member of the Xie Group?"
