After fooling around for a while, Zhou Xiaowen suddenly became serious:
"Chairman Zhao, to be serious, over 20 million... we don't know how to take care of it. Do you have any suggestions?"
Chen Shuhua also nodded:
"Yes, we can't just release bank demand at the same time, right? Inflation is too severe."
Li Jing looked at him eagerly:
"Chairman Zhao, teach us."
Zhao Chen picked up the tea cup in front of him, took a sip and then put it down.
Zhou Xiaowen quickly got up and helped him fill up his tea cup.
Zhao Chen is very satisfied with this diligent effort.
There are many future investment targets, but they need to find one that is suitable for them. It must have high returns and be stable.
He had to think hard.
At this moment, several images flashed through his mind - the outbreak of Shanxi Fenjiu in 2018.
China Resources bought shares in Fenjiu in 2018, which happens to be next year.
The joining of China Resources has expanded the channels of Fenjiu, and since then Fen Liquor has entered into sustained high growth.
Previous Life Fenjiu That wave of increase is enough for these little girls to achieve financial freedom.
"Buy Baijiu!" he said.
Zhou Xiaowen was stunned for a moment:
"Baijiu? Moutai? Or Wuliangye?"
Zhao Chen shook his head slightly:
"Moutai is too expensive, and there is not much room for upside. If you buy Fenjiu, the market size is small, and the fundamentals in the north are solid."
Chen Shuhua pushed up his glasses:
"Shanxi Fenjiu?"
Zhao Chen nodded:
"Yes. The price is not expensive now, but there will be potential in the next few years."
Zhou Xiaowen hesitated:
"Baijiu stock... can it work? Wasn't there a plasticizer incident in the past few years?"
Zhao Chen glanced at her:
"Plasticizers and Prohibition are all part of the Old Huang history, and those things have long been over.
Do you believe me?"
Zhou Xiaowen immediately raised his hands and surrendered:
"Believe it, believe it! I believe whatever Zhao Zong says!"
Then she said exaggeratedly, "Even if you say you are an alien, I will believe it!"
She turned to Shen Zhiyi and said:
"Ms. Zhenggong, you must keep an eye on Zhao Zong and not let him escape.
The happiness of the sisters in our dormitory for the rest of their lives will all depend on him."
Shen Zhiyi blushed again:
"Say less..."
Several people laughed again.
Zhao Chen likes to party with them because he also enjoys this kind of relaxation.
During the chat, the topic turned to the latest hot topics.
Li Jing was swiping his phone and suddenly said:
"Have you seen the news? The word 'Blind Boxes' is so popular recently. Many people are posting about my name Moments."
Zhou Xiaowen leaned over and took a look:
"Bubble Mary? I know! My roommate bought a dozen of those Mololoy dolls and spent thousands."
Chen Shuhua pushed up his glasses:
"This business model is quite interesting. It uses uncertainty to stimulate consumption, and the repurchase rate is very high."
Zhou Xiaowen said:
"My roommate said that buying Blind Boxes will make you addicted. Once you buy Blind Boxes, it will be as deep as the sea. From then on, your wallet will become a stranger."
Li Jing asked:
"Is this thing really worth the price? A doll costs dozens of dollars, and a set costs thousands."
Chen Shuhua thought for a while:
"It's definitely not worth it in terms of cost. But what they sell is the emotional value, the sense of surprise at the moment of opening the box."
Zhou Xiaowen suddenly remembered something:
"This shouldn't last long, right? I think there are a lot of people doing Blind Boxes recently. It's almost like gambling. I guess the country will rectify it, right?"
Chairman Zhao, what's wrong with you?"
Zhao Chen was about to answer when a light suddenly flashed in his mind.
Bubble Mary.
Blind Boxes.
2017.
He suddenly remembered the memory of Previous Life--
In 2017, Bubble Mary was valued at around RMB 800 million, with a profit of just over RMB 1 million. It was at an inflection point in its transformation from "retail store" to "IP operations".
That period was an "investment vacuum period" for Bubble Mary, and it was also the best window period for investment.
What happened next?
Later, Bubble Mary relied on the IP of Mololoy and grew rapidly.
From 2017 to 2019, revenue increased from 158 million to 1.68 billion, and net profit soared from 1.56 million to 450 million. After listing, the market value once exceeded 100 billion Hong Kong Dollar.
And this is not the end yet. Later, when Labobo became popular all over the world, the market value of Bubble Mary was once close to 500 billion Hong Kong Dollar.
It's only December 2017.
Bubble Mary has not become popular yet, and its valuation is still very low.
And the most important thing is - it has not yet been listed and is still in the private placement stage.
"Zhao Zong?" Zhou Xiaowen saw that he was distracted and called out again.
Zhao Chen came back to his senses, suppressed the fluctuations in his heart, and spoke calmly:
"This company... is a bit interesting."
Zhou Xiaowen's eyes lit up:
"Interesting? In other words, the risk is not high? Then can we buy its stock?"
Zhao Chen shook his head:
"It's not on the market yet. It won't be too late for you to buy it after it's on the market."
Zhou Xiaowen is a little disappointed:
"It's not on the market yet..."
Zhao Chen smiled:
"You only have a chance if you don't go public."
He glanced out the window and did not continue talking.
But I have already remembered this name in my heart.
Bubble Mary.
2017.
Valuation turning point.
investment window.
--It deserves careful study.
Shen Zhiyi noticed the change in his expression and touched his hand lightly.
Zhao Chen glanced at her and nodded slightly, indicating that it was okay.
Shen Zhiyi didn't ask again.
She knew that his expression usually meant that he had discovered something again.
After dinner, Zhao Chen took Shen Zhiyi and the others back to school.
Shen Zhiyi stood beside the car and looked at him:
"The evening conversation went well."
Zhao Chen nodded:
"Well. You go back and have a good rest."
Shen Zhiyi looked at him, suddenly stood up on tiptoes and kissed him gently on the face.
Then she turned and ran:
"Be careful on the road!"
Zhao Chen looked at her back disappearing into the campus, raising the corners of her mouth slightly.
He got into the car and started the engine.
Next stop, 7pm, Cheng Jiaxun.
And that thought that just woke up - Bubble Mary.
After Zhao Chen returned to the Villa and rested for a few hours, he got up and took Su Wantang to see Cheng Jiaxun.
They arrived fifteen minutes early.
Zhao Chen chose a seat by the window and sat down, ordered a pot of tea, and waited slowly.
The matter of Bubble Mary was still spinning in his mind. When Su Wantang was talking to him, he also looked absent-minded.
800 million valuation, more than 1 million profits, transformation turning point, investment vacuum period...
If you can go in now, in the future...
Too much, really too much.
He couldn't help but think too much.
He shook his head and brought his thoughts back to reality.
Tonight's protagonist is Cheng Jiaxun.
Yunnan Agriculture Group's matter is the business now.
At seven o'clock sharp, Cheng Jiaxun showed up on time.
He wore a dark gray jacket today and looked more relaxed than the last time we met, but there was still a trace of fatigue in his brows.
"Chairman Zhao, long wait." He sat down opposite.
Zhao Chen poured him a cup of tea:
"Mr. Cheng You're welcome. I've just arrived too."
The two exchanged pleasantries for a few words, and the dishes began to arrive.
Cheng Jiaxun picked up the wine glass:
"Chairman Zhao, this is my toast to you. Last time we met, I was still a little hesitant. This time, I figured it out."
Zhao Chen clinked glasses with him:
"Mr. Cheng Please say."
Zhao Chen knows very well that since the other party has come to the door, the probability of successful negotiation is very high.
