Chapter 58(1/2)
Sure enough, Zhou Buqi quickly received a call from Manager Liu of the research institute.
"Brother, something went wrong."
"oh?"
"The city's documents have been sent to the research institute, saying that the current focus is on economic development, and stability is overriding everything else. In the final analysis, economic stability is the top priority. Requiring to reduce market conflicts will not only support the rise of local brands
At the same time, we must not hurt the investment enthusiasm of foreign brands."
Zhou Buqi knew this and asked with a smile: "So, pearl milk tea cannot be criticized?"
Manager Liu said: "That's not to say it's impossible. It's okay to have one or two private reports occasionally. But...how to put it, after joining the WTO, the market economy must be fair. National brands must strengthen themselves and cannot rely too much on official bias.
, do you understand what I mean?"
"So, there won't be any media coverage of Yuanwei milk tea?"
"Well, at least not in the near future. The magazine has been criticized. The scale of the article was a bit large and not fair and objective enough."
"Is that so? Do you still have the 5,000 magazines you ordered?"
"Yes! I asked, the wholesale price is 3 yuan a copy."
Zhou Buqi sneered.
Manager Liu's vision is really small.
There is no secret in the publishing industry. The wholesale price usually does not exceed 50% of the list price, leaving enough profit margin for distributors. The price of the magazine "Chinese Food" is 4.5 yuan, and the ex-factory price is about 2 yuan.
.
Manager Liu still wants to make a small fortune.
But Zhou Buqi didn't care.
The research institute did not receive research and development fees for the milk tea formula, so it used this money to cover the expenses.
"Okay, I won't issue any invoices. I'll pick up the goods directly from you then." Zhou Buqi said with a smile.
"no problem!"
Manager Liu was very satisfied with his attitude.
After the call ended, Zhou Buqi let out a long sigh.
The road to entrepreneurship is really full of twists and turns.
I wanted to keep a low profile, but suddenly I wanted to be famous.
I thought I was going to be on TV and in the newspapers, but suddenly a notice came down and everything was cancelled.
Yuanwei Milk Tea is not suitable for public reporting, and the subtext is that it is on the internal list. As long as we follow Principal Hu's instructions and establish a positive image, we may be able to turn decay into magic and pave the way for future career development.
Well, that’s a good thing!
The only trouble is that without publicity, what will happen to the milk tea shop’s fruit supply chain?
Zhou Buqi had nothing to do with those fruit vendors.
Forget it, just take it one step at a time, there is no obstacle that you cannot overcome.
The good news is that the money for the domain name has finally been approved.
$150,000!
According to the current exchange rate, it can be exchanged for 1.23 million.
More importantly, after Zhou Buqi’s investigation over the past few days, I found out that there is no need to pay tax for domain name business!
Why don’t you have to pay tax?
It was not until 2017 that the country officially established domain names as legal assets. The legitimate rights and interests of domain name owners will be protected by law, and domain name transactions are subject to value-added tax.
In other words, in China today, domain names are “illegal assets” and are not subject to the legal framework.
The domain name has been stolen. Call the police? Sorry, the police will not accept it.
Likewise, domain name transactions are not included in tax planning.
Even if I pay tax, how do I issue an invoice?
Issue illegal bills?
This is undoubtedly good news for Zhou Buqi.
"No wonder domain name tycoons like Cai Wensheng, Yao Jingbo, and Ding Haisen have made their fortunes early and become financially free. They don't pay tax on domain name transactions. If they really paid 45% income tax, they would probably be able to maintain tens of thousands of domain names with the money they earned.
It’s not even enough.”
Zhou Buqi went to the bank to do some operations, exchanged currency, and transferred it from Bank of China to ICBC.
Then, I called the landlord of Xuezhi Community.
"I don't want to rent the house anymore."
"Ah? Why?"
"I want to buy it."
"Don't be joking, then..."
"650,000, is it enough?"
…
Zhou Buqi called everyone from the Entrepreneurship Alliance again.
He has to assign tasks.
However, before he could open his mouth, Liu Wenbo took the lead and said with concern: "Boss Zhou, I heard that the supply chain problem has not been solved yet?"
Zhou Buqi's eyes darkened slightly and he nodded, "Well, it's not easy for the fruit seller to handle it."
Liu Wenbo said: "This is not possible. The decorations here at Beike and BIT are almost complete. The Beijing Foreign Language School is slower, but they are working overtime. It is estimated that it will be completed by the end of the month. It is about to open now, and the supply chain needs
Solve it quickly!"
Meng Houkun, who was sitting on the right, suddenly said: "Boss Zhou and I are handling it."
Liu Wenbo sighed, shook his head, and said solemnly: "Time waits for no one! Otherwise, leave this matter to me?"
Meng Houkun looked very unhappy.
What does this mean?
You want to take over the matter that Boss Zhou and I have not resolved?
Doesn’t this make it clear to everyone that you are more capable than Boss Zhou and I?
Is this a provocation?
Zhou Buqi didn't seem to take it seriously and smiled, "That's no need. I've already contacted you."
"Have you contacted me?" Liu Wenbo was slightly stunned, very surprised.
Meng Houkun's heart skipped a beat.
He and Boss Zhou ran for two whole days and were as tired as dogs.
If Boss Zhou could solve it, he would have done it long ago. Do we need to wait until now?
Is this a burning pot?
It seems that managing a business team is also very stressful and complicated. I have to find opportunities to communicate with my dad when I go home and learn.
"Okay, this matter is over. I called everyone here today because I have a task to arrange."
Zhou Buqi made a downward gesture, attracted everyone's attention, and said slowly: "As far as I know, except for the dance academy, other schools have National Day galas. Zian, you have been in charge of the school student union all year round.
Tell me, if you want to sponsor this party, how much will it cost?"
Ji Zian said: "It doesn't cost much. Here at the National People's Congress, you can put up a banner for 1,000 yuan. Other schools should be similar."
Zhou Buqi shook his head, "Parties are mostly held at night. Hanging banners with red background and white characters will have limited influence."
Ji Zian said in surprise: "Boss Zhou, what do you mean?"
Zhou Buqi said: "I want to put up a big sign of Yuanwei Milk Tea in the most eye-catching place of the party. Moreover, it needs to have lights and can be painted with reflective materials. It needs to be eye-catching and dazzling."
Ji Zian lost his voice and said: "That will cost a lot of money! The cost is at least 3,000 yuan!"
"This expenditure should be done." Zhou Buqi looked calm.
Liu Wenbo couldn't believe it, "Even if the dance academy is not included, the other nine schools...Boss Zhou, where did you get so much money?"
This is normal, everyone looks worried.
Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "I said, I will take care of the funding. Moreover, it is not just nine universities. In this way, Tsinghua University, Peking University and Renmin University, plus BIT, Beijing University of Science and Technology, and Beijing Foreign Studies University, will engage in this kind of university
The scene. Other schools can simply sponsor it and put up a banner to show their appreciation."
"We don't have people from Tsinghua University." Liu Wenbo didn't understand Zhou Buqi's meaning.
Zhou Buqi said: "Tsinghua is the top university after all. Let's go advertise first. Okay, this matter is settled. Zian, I will leave Tsinghua to you to run it. Are there any problems?"
