Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

An employee asked, "Mr. Li, so you were really far-sighted and prescient when you left the 20% of Cold Face Girl's shares. Meng Chang sold 40% of his shares at that time, wouldn't he have lost a lot of money?"

Li Shi smiled slightly with great pride, "That's not true."

"Do you think it's a coincidence that I can keep more than 20 percent of the shares? Of course not!"

"It must have been Pei's acquiescence that allowed me to keep these shares!"

"At that time, Mr. Pei's requirement was that Tengda must get more than 70% of the shares of Cold Face Girl, otherwise he simply would not take over this mess."

The employee asked again: "But, Meng Chang could also resolutely not sell."

Li Shi smiled slightly: "This is a simple question of psychological game."

"It is known that Mr. Pei will practice what he preaches, saying that if you get 70%, you must get 70%. At that time, I held less than 40 percent of the shares, Meng Chang held more than 40 percent, and the other investors held a total of 30 percent. In the end, I would never sell this 20% of the shares."

"In other words, there are only two results between Meng Chang and me: first, if I don't sell and he doesn't sell, then we won't get any money; second, if I don't sell, he will sell. In that case, it's hard to say whether the cold-faced girl will be able to make money in the future, but at least for the time being, he's got the money."

"Does he have any other choice?"

"Meng Chang is in debt, so he can pay off his debts sooner if he gets some money. What right does he have to fight with me?"

"What's more, it was because we worked closely with Mr. Pei that Mr. Pei gave us tacit permission to keep more than 20% of the shares.

The people suddenly nodded their heads.

The so-called "rich man's thinking" and "poor man's thinking" are most vividly embodied at this moment.

Many people describe the thinking of the rich and the thinking of the poor as the difference in wisdom between the rich and the poor, but it is not. It is more like an inevitable consequence of the objective environment.

In other words, it is not because one has a so-called rich man's mind that one becomes rich, but because one is a rich man himself, one is able to think in a so-called rich man's mind.

Just like the shares of Cold Face Girl.

Would Meng Chang not be clear about the value that these shares might have in the future?

Other investors in the capital might not know much about Mr. Pei, but Meng Chang definitely knew how scary Mr. Pei was.

But in the case that only one of Meng Chang and Li Shi could keep their shares, Meng Chang could only choose to sell them because his risk taking ability was not at the same level as Li Shi's. Similarly, rich people can think with the so-called "rich man's mind" because they have enough risk taking ability.

Similarly, rich people can think in the so-called "rich man's mind" because they have enough risk-taking ability, while poor people do not have such risk-taking ability, so naturally they cannot force themselves to think in the so-called "rich man's mind", and can only focus on the small profits in front of them.

The employees of FHH obviously understand this principle, but how they think about it is different from person to person.

They may sigh and lament the injustice of the world, or they may make up their minds not to let themselves end up in a situation where they have no choice but to do so.

An employee picked his thumb and praised, "Mr. Li, I now better understand what you said before: 'Investing is actually investing in people'."

"The acquisition and retention of Cold Face Girl's shares is an excellent investment, but the prerequisite for the success of this investment is a good working relationship with Mr. Pei."

"Otherwise, even if you saw this investment opportunity, you would have no way to do it."

"So, your most successful investment is still seeing the excellence of Mr. Pei as early as when Tengda Group was not developed, and working together, befriending and gaining Mr. Pei's friendship as early as possible!"

"Surely your approach to investing is worth learning more about!"

It must be said that anywhere, there is always an ass-kisser.

But Li Shi wasn't angry, because this employee's flattery was out of style, out of level.

It wasn't an OMG shot, but a shot to Li Shi's proudest point, which made him very comfortable.

With the development and growth of the Tengda Group, Li Shi felt that he had underestimated the value of Pei.

He had a feeling that investing in Pei early enough would be one of the most brag-worthy things he would do in the future!

Of course, this investment is a broad one, gaining the friendship of Pei.

"Okay, okay, let's stop this topic here."

"For the sake of everyone working so hard overtime today, I'll reveal one more little piece of information to show you a clear path."

"You all know about the snack bazaar, and now the prices and stores there have gone up."

"But according to my observation, it's far from topping out."

"Do you know the difference between me and those other people who run to the neighborhood to buy stores? The difference is that they don't have enough imagination to estimate how much power Pei really has. So, they will soon feel that it's almost at the top."

"But I dare say that the area around the old industrial area, including the snack bazaar, the snack street and the Thrill Hostel, will still have room for appreciation!"

"It's up to your own determination whether you can get something out of it."

"Of course, my judgment is very subjective, and the only basis is that I think Mr. Pei will make big moves in this area. You don't have to thank me if you make money, just don't blame me if you lose it."

Everyone's eyes shone and they nodded, "Thank you, Mr. Li!"

Since the food bazaar has been on fire, the prices of homes and stores in that area have all increased rapidly.

This is very normal, as soon as the Snack Bazaar opened so hot, even a fool can see that this area will rise in value.

But how high will it go? This is a problem.

At present, the prices of housing and stores in that area, has been rising rapidly, many people originally wanted to invest, but see the situation have backed off, afraid that the place because of excessive speculation has created a bubble.

After all, from the behavior of Tengda let the snack street turn, Tengda is more inclined to eat alone. The stores close to the snack street are already owned, more distant stores, who can guarantee that after buying can share the benefits of the snack bazaar?

So, many people hesitated.

But Li's judgment is, where is this going? It's definitely going to go up!

Not because of anything else, but because Mr. Pei must have other plans for this place!

But Li Shi himself could not buy up all the buildings and stores in the old industrial zone.

Therefore, he mentioned this sentence.

As for whether the employees under him would invest or not, how much money they could put out, and whether they could last until the end, that was not a question Li Shi needed to care about.

When he left the company, Li Shi was in a better mood.

It was really a triple blessing lately!

First, Starbird Fitness was a great success after introducing the intelligent fitness drying rack and changing the fitness mode, then it was the first to buy the stores near the snack market which appreciated quickly, and now, the cold-face girl who has been silent for a long time is also the good news.

It's all thanks to Mr. Pei!

By the way, Starbird Fitness and the Snack Bazaar have been thanked at the table, but the Cold Face Girl side of things has not been thanked yet.

It seems like it's time to thank her in particular, otherwise it would be bad if Pei feels like he's a person who doesn't take enough advantage of small things.

But this kind of thing, it is not advisable to make too much of a fuss about it, after all, for Mr. Pei, it may be just a trivial matter.

After considering for a long time, Li Shi finally decided not to make a big deal out of it, and simply sent a message.

After it was edited, he wanted to send it, but stopped again.

"Well ...... doesn't seem like a perfect time."

"Right now Cold Face Girl is a big deal, but it hasn't exploded yet after all. Based on the current state of affairs, it will be at least until tomorrow, which is Sunday, that the Cold Face Girl store over in the capital will be bursting at the seams."

"If I send this message early, will it feel like I'm being clever?"

"Well ...... is better to keep a low profile and wait until tomorrow to post."

When dealing with smart people, sometimes it is a great wisdom to appropriately act a little dumb.

Li Shi eventually saved this message for now, waiting for a suitable time.

......

......

Sunday, June 24.

Pei Qian woke up again, got up and looked at the time, 9:30.

"Which game do you want to play at home today?"

"No!"

Taking a glance at the calendar reminders, Pei Qian suddenly realized that today was the day the big screen of the Tengda Experience Store was completed and officially opened!

This was a bit frustrating for Pei Qian.

I had to go out again!

Although the experience store trial operation has been very hot, but this big screen after repair, still have to go to see.

Even if it is hotter than before, we still need to see how hot it is and have a psychological expectation.

Pei Qian reluctantly sat up from the bed to go wash up, and then found that Mr. Li had sent a message to himself.

"Mr. Pei, thank you for the cold-faced girl!"

It was very brief, and it was obvious that Li Shi thought we were all smart people, and some things should be straightforward, so that we would know what each other knew.

However, when Pei Qian saw this message, he held the toothbrush in his hand, with his mouth full of foam, and thought for half a minute, but he didn't understand what it meant.

Li Shi?

Cold Face Girl?

Why thank me?

Pei Qian tried to remember, and finally remembered the connection between Li Shi and Cold Face Girl: when he received Cold Face Girl's shares at a cabbage price, he took all the other people's shares, but only Li Shi left more than 20% of his shares.

"What's there to thank me for?" Pei Qian was still puzzled.

At that time, Pei Qian made it clear on the spot that he had to get more than 70% of the shares of Cold Face Girl, or else he would not take the offer.

He didn't want to eat alone to make money, but he was scared because of his previous experience.

When he first made the app, Pei Qian didn't pay attention to the share distribution problem, and let Li Shi and other investors get too many shares.

As a result, this group of people joined hands to pit Seude Education, selling their shares and letting Seude Education take over at a high level.

They made a huge profit, not to mention the fact that Yuan Meng Venture Capital also made a huge profit by selling its shares!

Pei Qian almost vomited blood at that time, but had no choice but to be impotent and furious.

This pitiful project was intended to lose a lot of money, but somehow ended up making money, so who can I talk to?

So since then, Pei Qian has grown an eye for it. For a project like this that can cost more money, you must get more than 70% of the shares to ensure that you have absolute control.

If someone else gets more shares, Peiqian can't control many things.

If a tragedy like the one in "Come Soon" were to happen again, what would be the point?

As to why 20% was left for Li, ......

The reason is that Pei Qian is very clear, with Li's character, he will never sell the shares, no matter how much he is persuaded he is just a waste of words.

And this twenty percent of the shares are harmless, does not affect Tengda's absolute control of the cold-face girl.

Mr. Li is willing to spend money to float, so let him go.

Pei Qian had already forgotten all about this matter until just now when Li sent this message.

He was a bit puzzled, what does it mean that Li sent such a message without a brain?

Suddenly, Pei Qian's pupils suddenly dilated and poof, he spit all the toothpaste foam in his mouth in the sink.

"Finished! Did something happen over there at Cold Face Girl?

Maybe I ate too much seafood yesterday and got a little angry, with slight signs of bleeding gums.

Toothpaste froth with a little blood, quite like foaming at the mouth and at the same time the blood attacked the heart ......
