Hong Kong Variety Show: The Development Notes of a Boss

After spending so much money to create hype, it is unlikely to make a profit if we only rely on these stores.

Lu Yongqiang planned to wait until the brand "Cool Summer" became popular, and then set up a factory to specialize in producing bottled herbal tea, which was the fundamental way to make money.

As for the money invested in the stores now, it can all be regarded as the early promotion expenses of the herbal tea factory.

Lu Yongqiang has great ambitions for this herbal tea factory. He wants to create a product like "Uni-President Green Tea" or "Master Kong Iced Black Tea".

In fact, Lu Yongqiang was not very sure whether this matter could be accomplished. He had already considered soliciting investment. If Tong Keren really wanted to invest, it was not impossible for him to agree. Lu Yongqiang was afraid that Tong Keren had other intentions.

After Tong Keren finished speaking, Le Huizhen asked doubtfully, "Husband, didn't you say you wanted to find investment for the herbal tea shop? Now Keren wants to invest, why don't you agree?"

Lu Yongqiang frowned and didn't know how to tell the truth to Le Huizhen: Tong Keren was talking nonsense, he just mentioned it just now and he didn't refuse.

Lu Yongqiang thought for a moment and said, “Baby, you should know what’s going on with the herbal tea shop. It looks lively now, but it didn’t make a penny, and instead lost a lot.

Isn't she your best friend? I don't want to cheat her. If I don't make money, won't it make things difficult for you? "

After Lu Yongqiang's explanation, Le Huizhen believed it. When the herbal tea shop was opened, Le Huizhen invested 10 million yuan, and Lu Yongqiang gave her 20% of the shares.

When Lu Yongqiang opened a catering company, he was short of money, so he asked Le Huizhen for tens of millions of yuan for working capital, a sum Lu Yongqiang has never repaid.

After the catering company was sold, Lu Yongqiang included Le Huizhen's money in the catering company's investment, and gave Le Huizhen a total of 70 million including principal and interest.

At the beginning, Le Huizhen only gave Lu Yongqiang 30 million, which means she made 40 million from this investment.

Having tasted the sweetness of success, Le Huizhen insisted on investing when Lu Yongqiang was about to start a herbal tea business. No matter how much Lu Yongqiang tried to persuade her, she was determined to invest. Lu Yongqiang had no choice but to agree. After all, the investment was not large, only 10 million. If he lost money, he could just make up for it.

Le Huizhen is a shareholder after all, so Lu Yongqiang must tell Le Huizhen if he wants to raise investment.

Tong Keren knew about this, and it seemed that Le Huizhen told her.

After Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, Le Huizhen said, "Hubby, I've told Keren about the actual situation of the herbal tea shop, and I also briefly explained your plan to her. Keren thinks this business might be successful, and she only wants to invest after careful consideration.

It doesn't matter who you find to invest, it's better to find someone else and give it to our Keren. "Husband, why don't you consider Keren?"

Now that Le Huizhen has said so, what can Lu Yongqiang do?

Lu Yongqiang turned to Tong Keren and said, "Boss Tong, do you really want to invest?"

Tong Keren nodded.

Lu Yongqiang thought for a moment and said, "Okay! I agree to this. Send someone to my company tomorrow to meet with my people. Let's talk about it first."

Seeing Lu Yongqiang agree, Tong Keren curled her lips and said, "Is it really necessary to go through so much trouble? Ah Zhen puts in 10 million, and you give her 20% of the shares. I put in 15 million, and you also give me 20% of the shares, okay?"

Lu Yongqiang said without thinking: "You're dreaming. Ah Zhen invested from the beginning, and I only gave her 20% of the shares. Besides, she is my wife. Can you do the same as her?

If you want 20% of the shares, that's fine, but the minimum is 10 million per share. If you agree, I'll make the decision and agree to it now. Otherwise, we'll follow the rules and send someone to negotiate with my company. The final price will be determined at the negotiation table."

Le Huizhen was very satisfied with Lu Yongqiang's words, but Tong Keren was a little unhappy. She gritted her teeth and said, "You are too cruel! The recipe of herbal tea is not worth much, and your hype is not difficult to learn.

With 20 million, I can easily replicate your "Cool Summer" and even create my own brand. Why would I invest in you?

After Tong Keren finished speaking, Lu Yongqiang sneered, "The herbal tea recipe is indeed not worth much, but to make a delicious flavor like 'Cool Summer', how much does this cup cost? It's almost two yuan.

Making bottled herbal tea requires ensuring a good taste while keeping costs under control. Do you think this is an easy task? If you think it's easy, then just copy it.

Although I wanted to attract investment, I never thought about doing it now. Instead, I planned to wait until the bottled herbal tea was widely distributed before attracting investment.

Do you believe it or not, by that time, 20 million can only buy 10% of the shares at most?"

After Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, Tong Keren gritted her teeth and said, "I am Ah Zhen's best friend after all. Can't you be flexible for Ah Zhen's sake?"

"I've already made an exception!" Lu Yongqiang sneered, "It was only for Ah Zhen's sake that I let you in early. Do you think I'm short of those 10 or 20 million people?"

Hearing what Lu Yongqiang said, Tong Keren cursed him in her heart, calling him a bastard. She knew that Lu Yongqiang would not give in and she could not convince him.

Tong Keren rolled her eyes, hugged Le Huizhen's arm, and said coquettishly: "Ah Zhen, look, your man is bullying me?"

"Alright! Alright! I never ask about Aqiang's business affairs. Besides, it's just a few million, right? You don't need this little money, so why don't you just agree to it!"

What Le Huizhen said was true. She never asked about Lu Yongqiang's business affairs. When the Le family wanted to invest in a catering company, Mr. Le Sanye wanted Le Huizhen to help mediate, but Le Huizhen refused.

Before Tong Keren could speak, Lu Yongqiang spoke up, "Wife, you can't keep this best friend of yours anymore. She's taking advantage of you. I've already given her some benefits, and she's even making things difficult for you for a few million. She really doesn't consider you at all."

As Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, Tong Keren glared at him angrily, then said angrily: "You bastard, you are so cruel! For just a few million, you actually tried to sow discord between me and Azhen.

Twenty million is twenty million. I agree. I will send someone to your company to sign the contract tomorrow."

Seeing Tong Keren gritting her teeth, Le Huizhen tried to comfort her, "It's only a few million. It's not worth getting so angry about it. Don't you want to have a big meal? Let's go buy some groceries now, and pick out the expensive ones. You can eat it back when the time comes."

As he was talking, he pulled Tong Keren and prepared to go out. When he reached the door, he saw Lu Yongqiang sitting on the sofa without moving, so he said, "We are going to buy groceries, why are you still sitting here?"

Lu Yongqiang was stunned for a moment, then said, "Just go buy it. It's just some vegetables. Do you really have to ask me to go with you?"

"You really want to piss me off, don't you? If you don't go, who will carry the things? Are you going to let two of us, two delicate beauties, carry the bags?" Le Huizhen rolled her eyes.

"Where is Ms. Tong's bodyguard? Can't her bodyguard help you carry your things?" Although he asked, Lu Yongqiang had already turned off the TV and stood up from the sofa.

Le Huizhen explained, "Keren slept at my place last night, and I sent her bodyguard back last night."

Lu Yongqiang frowned and said, "Boss Tong, you are so ostentatious, and Hong Kong City is so chaotic recently. You should always bring bodyguards with you, so that you don't regret it when something happens."

Lu Yongqiang said this as a kind reminder to Tong Keren.

Unexpectedly, Tong Keren didn't know what was good for her. Instead, she said dissatisfiedly, "Don't slander me. How did I show off?"

As Lu Yongqiang changed his shoes, he said, "How are you showing off? Not only do you drive a million-dollar luxury car every day, but everything you wear is expensive luxury goods."

As he spoke, Lu Yongqiang looked Tong Keren up and down, and then continued, "Just the clothes you are wearing now, the total value is probably more than one million.

Let me tell you, there have been quite a few assassins in Hong Kong in recent days. These people can kill for money, so they can also commit robbery or kidnapping for money."

After Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, Le Huizhen looked Tong Keren up and down, then said, "Keren, what Ah Qiang said is not without reason. You really need to be more careful. It's best to bring bodyguards with you when you go out in the future."

In fact, Tong Keren could still distinguish good words from bad ones. After Lu Yongqiang's analysis, she felt that she was a bit ostentatious. However, facing Lu Yongqiang's words, she instinctively wanted to find fault. But now that Le Huizhen said so, Tong Keren could only nod resignedly.

They agreed to just buy vegetables, but when they got outside, the two women did not go directly to the vegetable market, but went to the mall to browse various luxury stores.

After strolling for over an hour, Lu Yongqiang already had more than ten things in his hands. He had no choice but to say, "That's enough, you two. Are we out here to buy groceries or clothes? If we keep walking like this, I won't be able to carry anything with my two hands."

After Lu Yongqiang finished speaking, the two women looked at Lu Yongqiang, whose hands were full of various pockets and boxes, and smiled a little awkwardly.

Le Huizhen said, "Keren, why don't we stop shopping and go buy some groceries?"

Tong Keren nodded, and the few of them were about to leave when a voice with a hint of surprise sounded.

"Keren, I didn't expect to meet you here? How have you been lately?"

Several people turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound and saw Rosen wearing a windbreaker and sunglasses, with a slicked-back hair and a cigar in his mouth. He was followed by a beautiful foreign girl and two foreign bodyguards behind him. It seemed that he was doing well.

Rosen brought his men to Lu Yongqiang and others.

Luo Sen extended his hand to Lu Yongqiang and said, "Mr. Lu, Miss Le, long time no see!"

Le Huizhen said nothing, but nodded at Luo Sen. Lu Yongqiang shook hands with Luo Sen, then chuckled and said, "Mr. Luo, it looks like you're doing well now, don't you? You've made a fortune!"

Rosen smiled slightly smugly, then said, "It's not that I've made a fortune, but it's a small achievement!

Oh, by the way, I've changed my name to Lei Li now. Mr. Lu, you can call me Ali or Lei Li."

"Change the name?" Lu Yongqiang was a little curious about this. Could it be that he had found a rich godfather... Thinking of this, Lu Yongqiang looked at Rosen with a strange look.
