Chapter 212 The Idea of Joining
Hearing Sun Gan's words, Chen Ping also nodded slightly, but there was still a bit of doubt in his eyes.
What Sun Gan said was something that Chen Ping had thought about before, but at this moment, Chen Ping asked softly in doubt, "Even so, there are only five levels in total, where does the sixth one come from? level?"
Sun Gan smiled slightly, and then his face suddenly became serious, and he asked in a deep voice, "Mr. Chen, there is something I have been thinking about for a long time, and I just want to take this opportunity today to discuss it with you."
Chen Ping laughed suddenly, and then said casually, "Mr. Sun, it's fine to speak straight, there is no need to be rude. We have known each other for so long, and if you are always so polite, a lot of work will be difficult to do."
Sun Gan also laughed suddenly, and then he didn't care, and continued to say in a deep voice, "I have an idea, the direction of our Changping supermarket company's expansion, President Chen has proposed two before.
One is the rapid expansion of Changping Supermarket itself. Using the funds within our Changping supermarket company, we can build new stores one after another. This expansion road, although fast, is still far from enough.
Mr. Chen once proposed that if Changping Supermarket has enough internal funds and even external capital injection, Changping Supermarket can develop the second expansion path, that is, acquisition.
Acquire some large supermarket companies that are poorly run or have problems for various reasons. It can be an individual store or a chain of supermarkets.
In this way, we can also quickly speed up the pace of expansion of our Changping supermarket company. But I think that only these two points are not enough. If it is possible, is it acceptable to join in? "
Hearing Sun Gan's words, Chen Ping's eyes suddenly narrowed slightly, and then he took a deep look at Sun Gan in front of him, his eyes flickering, and he was completely lost in thought.
I have to say that even Chen Ping never thought of this concept proposed by Sun Gan. But now after Sun Gan said it, Chen Ping's heart moved slightly.
After thinking about it carefully for a long time, Chen Ping's eyes became brighter and brighter, and then he said softly, "If we accept the way of joining, Changping Supermarket Company can completely open up the situation with the help of external funds.
As a result, the pace of expansion of Changping supermarket. It is very likely that it will be more than doubled, which is also a good way.
However, although the franchised stores can accelerate the expansion of our Changping supermarket company, after all, the franchised stores will not accept the complete management of our Changping supermarket company, and we only own a part of the shares of the franchised stores.
It is only possible to supervise and manage, and the control force will be greatly weakened. In this way, whether this matter is good or bad, it is not good to say now. "
Chen Ping's words also made Sun Gan nodded slightly, but then he said with a smile, "Mr. Chen's concerns are correct, but now our Changping supermarket company is really short of time.
Compared with other companies in the industry giants of the large supermarket chain companies in China, our Changping Supermarket Company started a few years later.
Within the scope of Dongjiang Province, it can still develop smoothly, but once it wants to step out of the scope of Dongjiang Province and break through the constraints of Dongjiang Province, the pace of expansion of Changping Supermarket will inevitably slow down.
If it attracts the attention of the giants of the large supermarket chain companies,
Even when they started to confront them head-on, the existing strength of Changping Supermarket Company was still far from enough.
Therefore, the faster our Changping Supermarket Company develops, the more likely we will be able to compete head-to-head with those large supermarket chain giants in the future, the greater the chance of winning.
It was also out of this consideration that I thought of the way to accept joining. Of course, the final decision still needs to be made by President Chen, and I am just making a suggestion.
After all, this suggestion still has some drawbacks. If President Chen can't accept it in the end, I can understand it. "
Sun Gan's words also made Chen Ping nodded lightly, and then fell into deep thought. It has to be said that this suggestion put forward by Sun Gan is actually a double-edged sword.
For the Changping supermarket company, there are pros and cons. The advantage is that if Changping Supermarket accepts the franchise method, many self-employed individuals can cooperate with Changping Supermarket.
They joined the Changping Supermarket Company and used the name and resources of the Changping Supermarket Company to open brand new stores. In this way, the scale of Changping Supermarket will also expand rapidly.
Changping Supermarket does not need to invest too much capital, but the speed of development can be greatly improved. But the problem is that the franchised stores still belong to those self-employed at the root.
Although Changping Supermarket has the right to supervise and manage, in fact, the real management right is not in the hands of Changping Supermarket itself.
And once there are various problems in the franchised stores, it will be a huge blow to the reputation of Changping Supermarket, and the risks will be even greater.
So for a while, Chen Ping was still a little hesitant, and there was no way to make a final decision in the first place.
After all, Chen Ping had never considered this aspect before, so it may not be so easy for Chen Ping to make a decision as soon as possible.
After thinking for a long time, Chen Ping could only helplessly rub his brows lightly, and then slowly said, "This matter should be put aside for the time being, after all, Changping Supermarket Company has not fully developed its reputation in the province.
Except for the two cities of Pingjiang and Anhe, there is no trace of Changping Supermarket in other major cities.
After the second round of expansion, Changping Supermarket will become the largest large supermarket chain company in Dongjiang Province. At that time, it is not too late to consider whether to accept the way of joining. "
Chen Ping's words also made Sun Gan nodded slightly, and he also agreed with what Chen Ping said.
Indeed, now that this matter is not imminent, he is just making suggestions, giving Chen Ping a precaution in advance, so as not to bring it up again at the time, Chen Ping has no way to make a decision in a short time.
After chatting with Sun Gan for a while, Chen Ping also found that the pressure on himself now seemed to be getting bigger and bigger.
Especially in terms of capital, don't look at the fact that Chen Ping is already a real billionaire. The two companies, Changping Supermarket Company and Coslight Technology Company, are both large companies with a market value of over 100 million.
Even just the liquidity on the book, which adds up to more than 200 million. The fixed assets of the two companies themselves, together with the company's liquidity on the books, have reached nearly 500 million.
In addition, these two companies also hold a part of Baidu's stock, and now the market value of this part of Baidu's stock is only about 100 million.
But after a few months, Baidu's official listing, the stock will usher in a period of skyrocketing, and it is even very likely that in a short period of time, the increase will reach as much as 10 times.
The original shares of Baidu, which are now worth 100 million yuan, are likely to increase directly to more than 1 billion yuan by that time.
So if you really count it, Chen Ping's assets now are not even as simple as a billionaire, and it is very likely that it has exceeded 1 billion.
Of course, this still needs to wait until Baidu is officially listed before it can be fully reflected.
However, even so, Chen Ping still needs to worry about the issue of funding. Recently, Baidu has gradually started to discuss the company's upcoming listing.
The company's top management seems to have already decided the final listing time. After this matter is confirmed, it is estimated that it will be around April.
In Chen Ping's memory, Baidu's final listing time should be in June and July, plus the period of time required for the company's stock growth.
Chen Ping estimates that it will be around the end of July that he will be able to sell Baidu's shares in exchange for a large amount of money.
However, before July, the amount of funds Chen Ping needs is not a small number.
On Coslight Technology's side, don't look at Chen Ping's good words, if there is a problem, you can mobilize funds from Coslight Technology. But in fact, the capital of Coslight Technology Company is not too rich.
Although there are tens of millions of funds, the game "Dota Map" has just been launched, and the publicity funds have not been released yet, and the subsequent publicity funds that need to be invested are not less than tens of millions.
So at least in a short period of time, Coslight Technology Co., Ltd. really can't come up with too much funds, unless it can wait until a month later, that is, in mid-March, the financial pressure of Coslight Technology Co., Ltd. is also will be completely removed.
Now Coslight Technology Co., Ltd. has three popular games in its hands. "Plants vs. Zombies", "Running Kart" and "Dota Map" are all cash cows.
Among them, the profit of "Plants vs. Zombies" should be considered the least. However, in fact, the domestic profitability of "Plants vs. Zombies" has reached its peak, and there is no way to continue making profits.
After all, the domestic version of the game "Plants vs. Zombies" is free, and there is no other means of profit in the follow-up.
However, Coslight Technology Co., Ltd. has sold the foreign agency rights of "Plants vs. Zombies" before, but it can get a part of the profit dividend.
However, according to the popularity of the game "Plants vs. Zombies" in foreign countries, it is estimated that the actual profit is only about 50 million per year, plus the agency fee, the profit this game can bring to Coslight Technology Co., Ltd. should be around seventy million.
If you want to get a profit in the shortest time, it should not exceed 30 million. After all, the time to sell the agency rights is still short, and the profit dividends that can be obtained are not too much.
The game "Running Kart" is not a money-burning game. Although there are many game users, the actual speed of profit is not too impressive.
Now the operation of "Running Kart" has been completely stabilized, and the monthly profit that it can bring to Coslight Technology has basically stabilized at around 65 million.
Even with the passage of time, although this number will not decrease in a short period of time, if the popularity of the game "Running Kart" gradually subsides, the profit figure will still shrink.
Of course, that should be at least a year and a half later.
