“What’s up?” In the hallway outside the classroom, Jiang Xu curiously looked at the somewhat coy Fu Yanjie.
“It’s just that…”Fu Yanjie said a bit embarrassed, “I wanted to talk to you about something in advance, could you lend me one million yuan when we go to university?”
“What?” Jiang Xu was stunned, “What do you need so much money for?”
“Starting a business.” Fu Yanjie’s face was full of longing, “I was chatting with one of my cousins who’s in university yesterday.
He started his own business in his freshman year, making more than a hundred thousand a month.
In his university, he’s quite a figure, surrounded by numerous girls every day.
I also want to start a business, to get some practice in advance.”
“Is that really what you want to do?” Jiang Xu sneered, “I feel embarrassed to reveal your true intent.”
Fu Yanjie’s rough face turned red, “Anyway, just tell me if you’ll lend it or not.”
“No, your family is so rich, why come to me for a loan?”
Fu Yanjie sighed, “My dad, he got some advice from someone, his son ought to be raised in poverty.
So he told me, once I go to university, he will only give me twenty thousand yuan a month, and not a penny more.
And he also said, it’s not that he’s afraid of the rich second generation squandering money, it’s that he’s afraid of the rich second generation starting a business…”
Well, Jiang Xu was astounded.
Twenty thousand yuan a month is considered being raised in poverty?
Did your family have a misunderstanding about the term “raised in poverty”?
Jiang Xu shook his head, somewhat speechless, “What do you want to start, that needs one million yuan in startup funds?”
“Internet cafe!” Fu Yanjie said with sparkling eyes, “My internet cafe will be different from others.
I want to use the top-end equipment, and equip it with eSports chairs that cost over ten thousand yuan each.
Snacks and drinks for free, and there’ll also be the option to choose company services.
These companions must be young and beautiful girls.
Some in school uniforms, some in maid costumes, some in housewife attire, and others.
I want every internet user to experience the feeling of being treated like a king.”
Well, to be honest, even Jiang Xu felt incredibly excited after hearing this.
Hurry up and open it!
Of course, he’s not interested in school uniforms, maid outfits, housewife attire, and such.
He just wanted to experience what it felt like to sit in an eSports chair that cost over ten thousand yuan.
By next September, Jiang Xu should be able to come up with one million yuan.
Rarely did his good friend want to do something serious, Jiang Xu naturally consented.
Moreover, this idea of his did indeed become popular more than ten years later.
If he started it early and Jiang Xu helped with some detail modifications, he wouldn’t have to worry about losing money.
“That’s great.” Fu Yanjie was overjoyed, “You truly are my good friend. If I had a sister, I would definitely introduce her to you.”
Jiang Xu: “Aren’t you being ungrateful?”
Fu Yanjie: “What?”
After school in the afternoon, Jiang Xu went to see An Feng alone.
“Uncle, this is the plan I’ve made, take a look.”
As soon as they met, Jiang Xu took out the plan he had made last night from his backpack.
An Feng looked at it intently.
After a while, his eyes lit up.
The plan stated that if they wanted to increase customer traffic to remote supermarkets,
the first thing to do was to build a reputation.
First, big promotions.
For example, let An Feng negotiate with some suppliers to buy large quantities of fruits and vegetables.
You can lose money at the beginning.
For example, if apples in other places cost five yuan a pound, you sell them for one and a half yuan a pound.
The second point, raffles.
If you spend a certain amount of money, you can enter a raffle.
The prizes should be as flashy as possible.
For example, the first prize could be a big color TV, computer, mobile phone, and so on.
“Hmm, why is there no more?”
An Feng looked until the end, only to find that it was cut off.
There should be more to this plan.
Jiang Xu said with a grin, “Uncle, the back of the paper has my bank account number, please transfer the money first.”
He had only given a bit of the plan, the rest would come after payment.
An Feng was a little angry, “You kid, suspecting even me! Do you still want to be with my daughter in the future?”
Jiang Xu: “Uncle, you wouldn’t want Nuonuo to know about your affair with Zhang Xiaohui, right?”
An Feng: “I’ll have my secretary transfer the money right away.”
Only after Jiang Xu received eight hundred thousand yuan did he give him the rest of the plan.
The third point, to stand out from the crowd.
Why would anyone bother to go all the way to your supermarket to shop?
The plan Jiang Xu put forth was to host activities outside the supermarket.
Two activities.
First, bring in some chickens, ducks, and geese.
Every customer who spends three hundred yuan can get five plastic hoops.
They can be thrown to ring a bird, and whichever bird is ringed belongs to the customer.
There would also be free slaughtering on-site, where the meat could be barbecued right away.
The second idea was to provide a play area specifically for kids.
With discounts, food, and fun activities, it would attract adults, children, and seniors alike.
There were plenty of vacant plots near the large supermarket, as Jiang Xu had specifically checked the previous night.
In the future, these plots could be used to grow strawberries, offering a pick-your-own service to add more appeal.
This was the general framework.
In the plan, Jiang Xu detailed every step and possible issues that might arise.
He even provided a complete set of solutions.
This marketing strategy might have been commonplace a decade later.
But at that time, many industries were still sticking to the beaten path.
Putting it in layman terms, they hadn’t caught on yet.
After reading the plan, An Feng was deeply impressed by Jiang Xu, and would never again see him as just an ordinary high school student.
He laughed heartily, “Well done, Xiao Xu. Now that we have this plan, our problems are solved.”
Jiang Xu laughed along, “Remember to give me the remaining two hundred thousand then, Uncle.”
He was planning to repay the thirty million yuan loan as soon as possible.
Jiang Xu had been planning his entrepreneurial direction for a while now.
In the early stage, the foundation would be a novel website.
Then spreading out to include TV and film, comics, publishing, animation, and video platforms, finally forming a perfect industrial chain.
Of course, achieving this goal would require considerable time and capital.
So, when he got to university, Jiang Xu also planned to venture into another field.
This field, how should it be put, didn’t require any technical skills, just some marketing knowledge and startup capital.
Once successful, it would be enough for Jiang Xu to earn several billions or tens of billions a year in the future, becoming the country’s richest person with ease….
Upon receiving the plan, An Feng couldn’t wait to leave.
“He left without settling the bill. On purpose, I suppose…”
Jiang Xu muttered, then went to pay the check.
On his way home, he received a text message
It was a notice that two hundred thousand yuan had been deposited into his account.
He grinned from ear to ear.
Big brother An Feng was really quite nice. It was him who had underestimated the man.
But next time, he would still do the same.
“Hmm, what’s Nuonuo up to?”
Halfway home, he spotted An Nuonuo up ahead acting suspiciously.
