Chapter 394 Making money is the way to go
On the plane back to China, Gao Yuan was filled with emotion as he looked at the Australian continent under his feet.
He still had too little money, and many things he wanted to do were restricted by funding issues. He still had to hurry up to get money, as the development of so many projects required a lot of money.
When the three Australian projects are officially transformed from technology to application, it is estimated that a large amount of funds will be provided to Gao Yuan, but this will take time, and it may not be possible in a short time.
Yuanfang Automobile in China has now become a giant. For every car produced, the system can compensate him 200,000. This income was previously thought to be compensated to the factory.
Later, Wang Sichao and others suggested not to compensate, and Yuanfang Automobile independently borne the loss part. At present, more than 700,000 cars have been sold, which also provided Gao Yuan with more than 140 billion.
These funds have been spent recently.
Fortunately, there are projects such as skin care products that continue to provide cash flow, otherwise it would be really difficult for him to do so many things in Australia.
Another issue that needs attention is the team. Although Gao Yuan has a lot of help around him, it is still too few. It is necessary to recruit more management talents, through which we can control various projects and make each project a giant.
After more than ten years or even decades of development, the talent training system of those large groups has formed a set of unique methods.
Although Gao Yuan's Yuanfang Group has developed very fast and is not inferior to those large groups in status, it still has great defects in the talent training system.
Reforms can be made in this regard to adjust the current personnel problems of Yuanfang Group.
To put it bluntly, it is to let all those slackers and relatives go, and those who are truly capable will become the middle-level management or even senior management of the group through the talent promotion channel.
The capable ones will rise, and the mediocre ones will fall.
He runs a company, not a charity.
Moreover, the various treatments of Yuanfang are now fully utilized, and the working hours required for employees are also very low.
In this case, if he does not struggle, it will really be a shame for him.
Gao Yuan has been thinking about the development of Yuanfang Group and the future industrial layout.
The plane crossed the ocean and finally landed in China at night.
As soon as he got off the plane, Li Mengqing and Lin Wanyu came to greet him in person, and even Wang Sichao came with him.
During this period, he had been communicating with Gao Yuan on emails, and there was no opportunity to report in person.
"Ahem... Brother Yuan, I need to make a statement about the current situation of our Yuanfang Automobile." Just when Gao Yuan got into the car, Wang Sichao couldn't help but say, "During the period since you left China for Australia, the number of locked orders of our Yuanfang Group has exceeded one million, constantly breaking the sales record of domestic automobiles released for the first time."
Of course, these records were created by Yuanfang Automobile.
Constantly breaking the myths he had created, other car companies were dumbfounded.
The sales of those car companies have dropped to the freezing point, and the bosses of those car companies are not angry, but secretly rejoice.
Fortunately, an agreement was reached with Yuanfang Automobile, otherwise, their current situation would be even worse.
"Gao Yuan just came back today, let him have a good rest."
Li Mengqing interrupted Wang Sichao who was chattering.
She didn't understand. In the past, Wang Sichao was also a sea king, who liked to have in-depth exchanges with some Internet celebrities every day.
I heard that an Internet celebrity was pregnant with his child.
How cool was Wang Sichao at that time?
How come he has become a workaholic now?
"That's right!"
Wang Sichao shut up angrily.
It's not that he is not interested in women, but that his current job has brought him a great sense of accomplishment.
In the past, others said that he was a cynical second-generation ancestor, and some said that he was a prodigal son. If it weren't for his father's identity, I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to marry a wife.
But now with the help of Yuanfang Auto's platform, who dares to underestimate him?
Anyone who sees him will praise him as a tiger father and a dog son?
Although Yuanfang Auto is Gaoyuan, he is the person in charge of Yuanfang Auto. Yuanfang Auto is constantly growing, and his reputation has increased a lot.
When those entrepreneurs who were once the same generation as his father met him, they also had to respectfully call him Mr. Wang.
This title was not for his father's sake, but for Yuanfang Auto's sake.
A few days ago, his father, Lao Wang, called him, and Wang Sichao rarely heard his father's praise for him on the phone.
His father also wanted to cooperate with Yuanfang Auto to launch a buy a house and get a car event to promote the sales of its houses.
But how could Wang Sichao agree to this?
Yuanfang Auto's production is now overwhelmed, so how could it have extra cars to cooperate with his father's real estate company?
Wang Sichao has become a workaholic, and the achievements brought by work are far more interesting than chasing after female Internet celebrities.
"Let's talk about this tomorrow." Gao Yuan said, "It's just right that you can call Da Mi Mi over tomorrow. I have something important to talk to you about."
"No problem!"
Wang Sichao got out of the car happily and watched Gao Yuan's car go away.
He is not a fool, and naturally knows that Gao Yuan, Li Mengqing and Lin Wanyu will go back tonight to do something important between men and women.
In the past, women were indeed very important to him.
But now Wang Sichao has seen through those women.
Women will only hinder the speed of making money.
"Ding Dong!"
Wang Sichao received a message on his mobile phone, which was sent by the person in charge of the largest club in the city.
"Young Master Wang, are you coming to play tonight? Our store has purchased a new batch of tea, which is guaranteed to be authentic and delicious."
The person in charge warmly invited this former big customer to come over and make a purchase.
"roll!"
Wang Sichao replied, and then directly blocked the person in charge.
"ha?"
On the other end of the phone, inside a club.
The person in charge was holding his cell phone and looking confused.
After Mr. Wang started his career, it has been a long time since he came to take care of his business.
…
Inside the villa.
Lin Wanyu and Li Mengqing did their best to serve Gao Yuan.
After a busy meal, the three of them lay on the bed panting.
Gao Yuan told his children about what happened in Australia. Of course, it involved some special things, such as spending the night with Princess Mia and Cai Sitian, but Gao Yuan did not talk about it.
I just talked about the business development and layout in Australia.
The two girls listened with great interest, and they only regretted that they were not by Gao Yuan's side at that time, and could accompany Gao Yuan to witness the big scenes in Australia.
When Gao Yuan talked about attending the banquet of the Australian royal family, a picture appeared in the minds of his children at the same time. Those dignitaries gathered around her husband Gao Yuan, worshiping Gao Yuan like a fanboy.
"It would be great if I were by your side. You have to make it up to me after being away for so long."
"You have to make it up to me too!"
The two girls had rested, and after sighing, they rushed forward one after another.
Gao Yuan dealt with a lot of things in Australia during this period, but everything went smoothly.
The only time I feel more tired is probably tonight.
Fortunately, his physique is different from ordinary people. If he were an ordinary person, he would probably have died long ago.
The next day, morning.
Gao Yuan went to the Yuanfang Group headquarters.
Wang Sichao and Yang Mi are already waiting here.
After seeing Gao Yuan coming, the two followed Gao Yuan into the office.
Da Mi Mi reported the recent situation, and then came Wang Sichao. Every time this guy opened his mouth, he would mention the car in the distance.
It was Gao Yuan who interrupted him. Gao Yuan said solemnly, "I'm calling you two here this time because there's something I need you to do."
"I want to set up a cultural and entertainment company in Australia. Wang Sichao is very familiar with the entertainment industry. He is from the entertainment industry himself. Do you two have any suggestions?"
"By the way, my main purpose is to penetrate Australia's culture. Whether I make money or not doesn't really matter."
Da Mi Mi was the first to speak, "I participated in international film festivals before and met several stars in the Australian entertainment industry. I can sign these stars to our newly established entertainment company, and then sign some new people through these popular stars. Come bring these newly signed artists.”
"When the popular stars become obsolete, the newly signed artists will be able to stand out on their own through constant training. At that time, we will terminate the contracts of those outdated stars and train these newly signed artists to become a new generation. ’s popular star.”
"The only trouble is that if you want to sign those popular stars, you may have to spend a lot of money."
Da Mi Mi has established a company before and has trained several celebrities, so he is very familiar with this aspect.
"Don't worry about money." Gao Yuan gave Da Mi Mi a shot in the arm, "I will give you a large sum of money and let you do this."
No matter how powerful celebrities are, they cannot compare with top business leaders.
"With your words, I feel relieved."
As long as Gao Yuan is behind him, it will be easy to sign contracts with all Australian stars, let alone a few popular stars in Australia.
Wang Sichao also expressed his own opinion, "Australia is different from China. Many of their radio and television stations are privately owned. I think we can acquire shares in those privately owned radio and television stations, and then use these television stations to enhance the exposure of our own artists."
"Choose a few influential TV stations and invest heavily in them. Those capitalists will definitely agree."
This suggestion given by Wang Sichao is also very useful.
"Then I will leave these two things to you." Gao Yuan said, "My ultimate goal is to create a cultural revolution in Australia, so that they abandon Western culture and embrace Chinese culture. ”
"Of course, it will take at least ten years to achieve this goal. Your goal in the first stage is to make them no longer hostile to Chinese culture and start to accept the penetration of Chinese culture."
The meal must be eaten bite by bite, and the road must be walked step by step.
Cultural penetration is very difficult, and it is simply impossible to completely change the minds of those people within a few months.
Only through subtle influence, such as filming more TV series and movies about Chinese culture, can Australians have a good impression of China.
Over time, they spontaneously wanted to learn the culture of Huaxia and fall into the arms of Huaxia. When you meet people from the Huaxia Kingdom, you will be a little more polite.
The reason why China creates hostility among people today is precisely because of the constant propaganda from Western countries. In many movies and TV series, people from China are regarded as villains who do all kinds of evil.
As time passed, they felt that people in China were all bad people.
The only way to solve this problem is to carry out deep cultural penetration.
After chatting with Wang Sichao and Yang Mi that day, the two of them began to prepare, and they were anxious for their subordinates to write plans and proposals.
After these things were completed, the two of them would go to Australia in person to set up a company in Australia to lay a solid foundation for the cultural and entertainment company of Yuanfang Group, so as to facilitate future penetration.
"Then Mr. Gao, what is our initial investment budget?"
Wang Sichao asked.
"In the early stage, 5 billion yuan." Gao Yuan said.
"Okay, this 5 billion yuan should be enough for the early stage."
Wang Sichao nodded and could sign some celebrities in Australia and acquire part of the shares of a radio and television station.
It's just that in the early stage, it's not good to invest too much.
If the results of this investment are not significant, you can also change your mindset and use another method to carry out cultural penetration.
After explaining the matter, Wang Sichao and Yang Mi left.
Gao Yuan was left alone sitting on the chair in the office.
It's time to spend money again!
During this period of time, Gao Yuan made money very quickly, but spent money even faster.
Especially after exchanging the technology, he opened three factories and research institutes, and now he wants to establish his own media company in Australia to conduct cultural penetration.
Counting the previous development of resorts, the construction of military training bases, and the space exploration... at least hundreds of billions of funds have been invested.
And these industries are only initial investments, and they will cost more in the future.
Take the three R\u0026D factories of chip research and development, artificial intelligence research, and nanobiotechnology as examples. Although Gao Yuan already has the technology, it will take a huge amount of money to transform the technology into usable results.
It seems that he is still a little poor!
Gao Yuan smiled bitterly for a moment. Although he is worth hundreds of billions, he can't meet these investments at all. It is also far from his strategic goals in Australia. He has to work hard to make money next.
Although the operator has released it, the current locked orders have exceeded one million.
According to the price of 99,000 per car, it has sold more than 100 billion, which seems a lot, but in fact, the operator car is not profitable at all, and it can almost be said to be sold at a loss.
If the system had not given a reward of 200,000 yuan for each car, Gao Yuan would have been unable to resist.
Why are those car companies afraid and have come to Gao Yuan to seek peace? It is precisely because Gao Yuan sells at low prices. Their car performance is not as good as Yuanfang Auto, and the price is higher than Yuanfang Auto. Users will definitely not consider it.
But if they sell cheaper than Gao Yuan, they will always be in a loss-making state, and they can't even recover the cost. At that time, the only way is insolvency and bankruptcy auction.
It is equivalent to Gao Yuan roasting them on the fire. No matter how they turn over, there will always be one side burned by the open fire.
So those car company CEOs ran to Yuanfang Auto and found Wang Sichao, asking to cooperate with Yuanfang Auto in a humble manner.
If it was a few years ago, these car company CEOs were more arrogant than each other, and they still wanted to reduce the price of their cars? What a joke? It's good enough that they don't raise the price.
Thinking of this, Gao Yuan took out his mobile phone and called Li Bin of Weilai Auto.
"Mr. Gao!"
Seeing that it was Gao Yuan who called, Li Bin answered the phone immediately and said excitedly, "Mr. Gao, you are back from abroad? Why didn't you tell me in advance? I will pick you up and welcome you."
If it weren't for Gao Yuan, Li Bin would probably be in a worse situation than other car companies.
So Li Bin has always treated Gao Yuan as a benefactor.
"It's just returning to China, it's not an important thing. How is NIO recently?" Gao Yuan asked.
He is most concerned about this, and the welcome is empty.
"NIO is currently developing very well." Li Bin said, "Since we have acquired the technology of Yuanfang Automobile, we have been rushing to produce new cars. I plan to hold a press conference at that time and solemnly invite you to attend."
The press conference of the car is very important. In the past, few car company bosses liked to do this, but I don't know who started it. Every time a new car is released, a grand press conference must be held.
And it is best for the boss of the company to host this press conference, talk about the various functions of the car, and use the Lei comparison method to compare the other party's shortcomings with their own strengths.
Even the slightest difference is not spared. In terms of wording, it is necessary to try to show a high-end.
It is obviously a very simple word, but it must be described in a high-end way.
Before the press conference, it is necessary to constantly warm up and attract people's attention, and several press conferences should be held. When the first press conference is held, the price of the car must not be mentioned.
It is best to be ambiguous, such as the best car within 500,000 yuan, the most comfortable car within 1 million yuan, etc.
Let those netizens guess, whether someone praises or sprays, it doesn't matter as long as the gimmick is enough.
And netizens scold each other even more.
When the marketing is almost done, you can start selling cars, one after another hot search, and then create memes. Anyway, those netizens don't understand cars, as long as they are fooled into thinking that this car is good, more and more people will buy it.
A long time ago, selling cars mainly relied on the strength of the product and word of mouth. Later, selling cars relied on the boss's mouth, and the marketing method was extreme.
Until Gaoyuan appeared, not only the marketing was good, but also the quality of the car was good.
What Li Bin wants to imitate is Gao Yuan. Now he is learning Gao Yuan's every move all the time, including the way Gao Yuan speaks.
There are also many people on the Internet who joke that if there is a Gao Yuan imitation competition, Li Bin will definitely be the first, and Gao Yuan himself can only be the second.
Some people also said that there will be a biography of Gao Yuan in the future, and the author of the biography is not Gao Yuan himself, but Li Bin.
Because even Gao Yuan himself does not know himself as well as Li Bin knows him.
Netizens keep playing memes, and Li Bin is not only not angry, but sometimes he plays memes with those netizens.
As a result, netizens can't help but praise him for his generosity and have a very good impression of him, and he has also become famous on the Internet recently.
Of course, all this fame is brought by Gao Yuan.
It can be said that Gao Yuan is the most important noble person in his life.
"Hurry up and build the car as soon as possible. I will let Douyin and Youni APP build momentum for you." Gao Yuan said, "The faster the better. If there are any technical problems, you can contact Yuanfang here, and there will be special engineers to solve them for you."
After the new car is built, a press conference will be held immediately to let customers place orders and lock in orders, and quickly recover a sum of funds.
"Understood, President Gao, don't worry. I am also always paying attention to the progress of the new car."
Li Bin was under great pressure.
After hanging up the phone, Gao Yuan called Yuanfang Automobile again.
Previously, Gao Yuan asked Yuanfang Automobile to produce official cars, top luxury cars, and luxury electric cars comparable to Rolls-Royce.
"President Gao, I really want to report to you about my work."
Wang Ling on the other end of the phone said, "I didn't expect your call."
"No need to be so troublesome, I can explain it clearly on the phone." Gao Yuan asked, "How is the car I told you about before?"
"We have mastered the technology, and now the first car has been built and is being tested on the road." President Wang said, "We plan to cooperate with some car influencers to conduct a live test to increase exposure."
"No, official cars only need to be made with quality and quantity, and no publicity is needed."
Gao Yuan directly refused.
This car is not suitable for some publicity. On the contrary, as long as it is on the market, it will naturally be very popular.
Then Gao Yuan mentioned the top luxury car that was built. At present, this project is still in progress and the body has been built.
After the assembly is completed next week, we can participate in debugging and testing.
Gao Yuan has high expectations for this car, not because of how much money this car can make for him, but because this car is a brand.
If it succeeds, some of the cars produced later will really make money.
...
In the office, Gao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
The layout of the automotive industry is almost complete, and there will be considerable profits in the future.
However, compared with the automotive industry, he is more concerned about the mobile phone industry.
Cars are commodities, and they are updated too quickly.
Buy a car, at least drive it for three to five years, and some people can drive it for more than ten years. Mobile phones are different. Mobile phones can be launched almost every year.
And compared to cars, mobile phones are cheaper.
If you succeed in the mobile phone industry, every time you launch a mobile phone, there will be a large number of fans buying it.
Far ahead of the others When this mobile phone was first launched, 30 million units were sold in four months.
According to the price of 7,000 yuan per mobile phone, it means 210 billion in revenue.
The cash flow is recovered faster.
Of course.
The R\u0026D costs paid by Huawei are also very high, which is different from Gao Yuan.
With ready-made technology, just use it directly, and the profit margin is absolutely ridiculous.
When he first started making mobile phones, Gao Yuan felt that the goal should not be set too high. Initially, the annual sales volume should be controlled at around 50 million units.
As for the pricing of the mobile phone, Gao Yuan previously thought of a basic model of 9999 yuan and a luxury model of 19999 yuan.
The prices of these two mobile phones are relatively high, and Gao Yuan intends to grab the high-end market of Huawei and Apple.
Gao Yuan is too envious of the high-end mobile phone market. At the beginning, only Apple had always occupied the high-end market, and it was not until recent years that Huawei had the opportunity to rush in and share the cake.
But even so, Apple has always been the company with the highest market value in the world, with a total market value of 3.29 trillion US dollars, which is more than 20 trillion RMB.
Huawei's Far Ahead mobile phone has only got a share of the domestic high-end mobile phone market, but it should not be underestimated. The latest mobile phone launched last year sold more than 30 million units in just four months.
At the price of 7,000 yuan per phone, that is, 210 billion yuan of funds, cash flow has been recovered to a great extent.
Nowadays, people use mobile phones more and more frequently, and some people can hardly live without mobile phones.
The reason why Gaoyuan makes mobile phones is because the mobile phone market is huge, and secondly, after making mobile phones, it is equivalent to establishing a complete closed loop. For example, you can use mobile phones to interact with Yuanfang cars.
You can also automatically bring software such as You APP when installing the phone.
Assuming that Yuanfang mobile phones sell 50 million phones a year, it is equivalent to adding 50 million app users.
These users can consume in the APP mall, which can also drive the sales of cosmetics.
In short, there are all benefits and no harm.
I guess after this mobile phone is launched, other mobile phone manufacturers will be scared again!
This will be a thorough revolution in the mobile phone industry.
