Taking Over Aoshu

Chapter 3 Taking Over Aoshu

The next day, Fan Yu received a system prompt: [Mission Issued: Given that the host is too complacent, please activate entrepreneurship mode. Sign-in rewards have a chance to obtain super enterprise shares.]

Huh?

What is this, encouraging me to start a business? Don't they want me to be a salted fish without dreams?

But since the system asked him to start a business, he would. With the entire Financial Street at his disposal, along with connections and ample funds, was he afraid of not being able to start a business?

However, his business ideas were too few, and he didn't know where to start. In that case, why not start with Aoshu Company? After all, he was quite familiar with Aoshu's business.

No sooner said than done.

He went downstairs, got into the Mercedes-Benz S450, and drove towards Aoshu Company.

A few minutes later, Fan Yu parked his car downstairs at the Baolan Building and walked in.

At this point, Aoshu Company was just an empty shell, with only the office area showing signs of activity.

Seeing Zhang Qian packing her last belongings, Fan Yu walked in and said, "Sister Qian, don't bother. You'll still be the company's general manager from now on."

Zhang Qian turned around upon hearing his voice, looking at Fan Yu in confusion. "Xiao Yu, what are you talking about?"

"The company has already gone bankrupt, why would I still be the general manager?"

Fan Yu shook his head. "Sister Qian, the company might not go bankrupt after all, because I'm planning to take it over."

"Huh?"

Zhang Qian stepped forward and touched Fan Yu's forehead, asking in confusion, "You don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense?"

"The company can't even afford the rent, why would you take it over?"

"Even if the company is yours now, where will you get the money for the rent?"

She knew Fan Yu had some savings, but taking over the company wouldn't be enough to cover it, right?

The rent alone was five hundred thousand, and perhaps Fan Yu couldn't even afford the rent.

Moreover, the company's operations were also problematic. If Fan Yu barely took it over, he would still lose money. She saw Fan Yu, a student who had just graduated, as a younger brother and didn't want him to be swindled.

Fan Yu knew Zhang Qian meant well and felt good about her. He took out his phone and said, "Forget it, I won't hide it anymore. Actually, I'm a second-generation rich kid. I came out to work just to experience life. I have a lot of feelings for this company and don't want it to go bankrupt, so I'm planning to take it over."

After speaking, Fan Yu showed her the bank message balance on his phone.

"Account ***3345 transferred 4,000,000,000.00 yuan on March 10, 20XX at 18:30. Current balance is 4,000,009,120.10 yuan."

Seeing the string of zeros in the message, Zhang Qian gasped.

"Four, forty billion?"

Zhang Qian had never seen so much money in her life, not even on television.

She checked again and again, and it was indeed a bank message balance, impossible to fake.

"Xiao Yu, are you really a second-generation rich kid?"

Fan Yu nodded. "Genuine. This is the pocket money my father transfers to me every month. I haven't touched it, so it's all accumulated."

Damn it!

Zhang Qian couldn't help but want to punch Fan Yu twice. Can't you stop showing off like this?

Your dad gives you forty billion as pocket money, forty billion at a time?

Actually, this forty billion was the quarterly rent for Financial Street that Liu Jian had instructed the finance department to transfer to him yesterday.

He had received the text message notification after returning to Yuan Zhong Yuan last night, but due to his system and his identity as the owner of Financial Street, his state of mind had calmed down, and he wasn't too excited.

After calming down, Zhang Qian asked, "So, Xiao Yu, after you take over the company, do you have any development plans?"

"You've seen the lessons from the past. Foreign countries might cut off your supply chain. Even if you have money, you can't be so wasteful, can you?"

Fan Yu nodded. "Of course, it won't be the same old routine."

"I've thought about a lot this past year."

"First of all, our positioning was wrong. Photon products do have a market, but we shouldn't be acting as agents for foreign products."

"In fact, our country has been progressing rapidly. In the future, the country will definitely focus on supporting domestic brands. Although foreign products have a market, they will also be suppressed, and the lifeline of the supply chain is controlled by foreign countries, which is a great risk."

"Why don't we try domestic products? Maybe we can succeed."

Hearing Fan Yu's words, Zhang Qian fell into thought.

"Yes, Xiao Yu, you're right. Domestic products will definitely be the focus of national support in the future. Foreign products will be suppressed sooner or later. Using domestic products might actually succeed."

Fan Yu nodded. "Since our direction is set, let's start dealing with company matters."

"Let's find as many former employees as we can. If we're short on staff, let's have a headhunting company help us recruit."

"Let's set the initial startup capital low, say one or two hundred million."

"Uh!!!"

Zhang Qian, who had many ideas, was suddenly choked by Fan Yu's mention of one or two hundred million.

Are you kidding me? One or two hundred million is considered low?

She didn't understand the world of the rich. Perhaps in the eyes of a super-rich person like Fan Yu, a hundred million or two wasn't much.

After discussing for a while, the two got straight to work.

When you have money, you can do whatever you want. What's with all the nonsense? Less talk, more action.

Then, Fan Yu had Zhang Qian contact an advertising company to help Aoshu with its advertising. The simplest advertisement: buy a product and get a free gift. It's a common commercial tactic, but also the most effective.

People nowadays love to get a good deal. If they can get a gift along with their purchase, they'll naturally choose that product.

Fan Yu contacted Liu Jian and had him reserve the entire floor for Aoshu Company. He also asked Liu Jian to contact a photon product manufacturer.

The sourcing channels were secured, the company was expanded, it was perfect, and the operation was very simple.

Starting a business wasn't that difficult at all. Plus, Aoshu could still contact many of its old clients from when he was running around. There was no shortage of supply or sales channels.

In the evening, Fan Yu and Zhang Qian discussed setting up a factory.

Even though he was now using domestic products, the supply source was still a major issue. They couldn't always be at the mercy of others. It would be best to have their own factory; self-production and self-sales were the right way to go.

Moreover, employee welfare also needed to be improved.

They would build a separate dormitory building for employees. After working for thirty years, the house could be transferred to the employee.

By giving employees first-class treatment, they would also work very diligently.

Yes, yes, he was very satisfied with his ideas.

Zhang Qian's uncle was a veteran cadre at an optical product factory and had very rich experience. He asked Zhang Qian to invite her uncle over to help manage the factory, as well as her cousin, who was reportedly a workshop director, to come along as well.

However, this was only temporary. He didn't have any talent on hand right now, so he could only make do. In the future, he would gradually reduce the authority of Zhang Qian's family to prevent any situations of sole power from arising.

Although he had money now, he couldn't let others take advantage of him casually.
