The wealthy entrepreneur: I want to support millions of employees!.

Chapter 134 Then why did he say no when I asked him?
Liao Mingjun believes that Fengyuan’s valuation should be around nine million.

He was willing to accept Jiuxiang's controlling stake, and he would give up 51% of the shares as long as Jiuxiang paid 4 million.

Of course, this valuation is just what Liao Mingjun said.

Ji Guoxiong will definitely send someone to evaluate whether it is worth so much.

But Liao Mingjun is undoubtedly more sincere!
The two companies willing to accept Jiuxiang Catering's investment should have both set their sights on Jiuxiang Hotpot Restaurant.

The outside world may not be clear about the development status of Jiuxiang Catering, but the companies that supply ingredients to Jiuxiang Catering should have a general understanding of it.

Su Yang frowned and asked, "Can I buy it directly?"

Fengyuan's approximate valuation was just within Su Yang's most acceptable range.

It would be difficult for him to sell a more expensive company now!
He was also attracted by Fengyuan’s food processing factory.

"I mentioned it to Liao Mingjun, but he refused!" Ji Guoxiong felt that he had underestimated his boss's desire for control. "Liao Mingjun is very ambitious. He hopes that after Jiuxiang becomes a shareholder, Fengyuan can still remain relatively independent, and he will still be in charge of the entire Fengyuan."

"This won't work!"

Su Yang shook his head.

Su Yang doesn't mind having other shareholders in the company. He actually doesn't have that strong desire for control.

But he must obtain controlling stake and control of the company.

He likes to give his employees raises, which inherently hurts the interests of other shareholders.

Even if he is a major shareholder, it is easy to cause dissatisfaction among other shareholders.

Just like Jiuxiang Catering.

If he follows the management style of most restaurant chains in the market, he could lay off a quarter or even a third of his hotpot restaurant employees.

We can further reduce the salary of each hotpot restaurant employee by one thousand or two thousand...

As long as you are ruthless enough, saving 20 million in labor costs a year will not be a problem!
If the company increases its net profit by 20 million, how much will the shareholders get?
No one will complain about having too much money!
Therefore, even if a shareholder wants to join, he must agree with Su Yang’s “management philosophy”!
He doesn't want to have any unpleasantness with the shareholders!
I don’t want to have to “explain” to all shareholders every time.

Su Yang thought for a moment and asked, "What do you think of Liao Mingjun?"

"He is quite reputable, treats his employees well, and has strict quality control over ingredients!" Ji Guoxiong thought for a moment and commented, "He is still a little young now, but he should be able to achieve something in the future."

"Then I'll meet him!"

Su Yang felt that as long as the price was high enough, there was nothing in the world that was not for sale.

When it comes to negotiation, he is definitely better than Ji Guoxiong.

And he also wanted to cut the Gordian knot, this matter must be settled as soon as possible!
Since Fengyuan is willing to be controlled, it means that it is relatively weak.

Liao Mingjun's clinging to power gave Su Yang the impression that he was... powerful on the outside but weak on the inside.

"Ok!"

When Liao Mingjun received the notice that Su Yang wanted to see him, he became excited.

He has witnessed the crazy development of Jiuxiang Catering in recent months.

He thought this was a great opportunity for Fengyuan to rise!

Feng Yuan has missed many opportunities and he doesn't want to miss this one.

So at 1:45 p.m. that day, he arrived at the headquarters of Jiuxiang Catering.

At two o'clock, he came to Su Yang's office under the guidance of his secretary Jiang Yuzhen.

When he first met Su Yang, Liao Mingjun was slightly surprised.

Although he heard that the owner of Jiuxiang Catering was very young, he didn't expect him to be so young!

Seems even younger than him.

However, he did not hesitate for long and took the initiative to reach out his hand:
"Boss Su, I've heard a lot about you!"

He really has admired Su Yang for a long time.

I really admire Su Yang for being able to develop more than 20 stores of Jiuxiang Catering in Rongcheng in a short period of time.

Business is still very prosperous!

In terms of Su Yang's ability and vision, he will never be able to match him in his entire life.

He used to be in the catering business and almost lost all his father's fortune!
In fact, he didn't know that Su Yang also thought he was very young. Liao Mingjun was actually only 25 years old!

"Mr. Liao, please take a seat!"

Su Yang smiled and shook hands with Liao Mingjun, which made Liao Mingjun feel like he was bathed in spring breeze!
The two sat on the sofa and chatted casually for a while, and Liao Mingjun slowly relaxed.

We are all young people, all working in the catering industry, so we have a lot of common topics.

Liao Mingjun also took the initiative to ask Su Yang some questions, and Su Yang answered them one by one.

In terms of practical operation, Su Yang may not be proficient enough.

But when it comes to theory, this is his strong point!

The first impression Su Yang gave to Liao Mingjun was that he was young and handsome.

He felt very friendly and always felt that Su Yang was like an old friend of his.

In addition, he had always admired Su Yang, and the more they talked, the more harmonious the atmosphere became.

When it comes to company development issues, Liao Mingjun couldn't help but complain to Su Yang.

Liao Mingjun's father, Liao Xiong, was born into an ordinary family and later followed his relatives to do some vegetable wholesale business.

He spent most of his childhood in the vegetable wholesale market in the northern part of Rongcheng.

Later, when Liao Xiong's business grew, he set up a company with two good friends, specializing in directly supplying ingredients to some hot pot restaurants and restaurants in Rongcheng.

A few years ago, Liao Xiong felt that the profit from directly supplying food ingredients was too low, so he wanted to process the food ingredients.

Directly process the ingredients into semi-finished products and then provide them to hot pot restaurants or catering stores.

If possible, the company can also engage in research and development and provide finished ingredients directly to restaurants.

However, at this critical moment, Liao Xiong fell ill due to the fatigue in his early years.

Almost a year before his father's death, Liao Mingjun took over his father's company.

He also agrees with his father's philosophy, and he believes that if Fengyuan wants to move forward, it cannot just be a simple food supplier!
If they don’t change, they will be eliminated by other more powerful supply chain giants sooner or later! But without Liao Xiong at this time, the other two partners of the company were unwilling to invest in building a factory.

They also didn't trust Liao Mingjun very much because Liao Mingjun lost a lot of money when he ran a restaurant.

They felt that following Liao Mingjun was too risky!
However, Liao Mingjun still gained the support of most of the company's employees. Despite the pressure from his two partners, he invested in building a food processing plant and then looked for sales channels everywhere.

He is under a lot of pressure now, as a group of his subordinates depend on him for their livelihood.

But the business could not be expanded.

First of all, the market happened to be a bit sluggish.

Secondly, the market competition is very fierce!
Most large restaurant chains have their own supply chain systems.

Or simply a supply chain company that you control yourself.

It's hard for them to get involved.

Small-scale restaurant chains prefer to cooperate with well-known local suppliers.

Fengyuan can only lower its profits as much as possible and compete with low prices, so the profits are very meager.

This forms a vicious cycle and there is no hope of development!

Jiuxiang Catering is an important partner of Fengyuan. Although the purchase amount is not large, the growth is very fast!
He also pays close attention to the development of Jiuxiang Catering.

Of course, Fengyuan does not supply much to Jiuxiang Catering, they are just one of the suppliers of the hot pot restaurant.

Ji Guoxiong stepped on several boats at the same time!

This time, Liao Mingjun wanted to accept Jiuxiang Holdings because he had come to his senses.

He wanted to find a strong restaurant chain to back him up.

To obtain a stable sales channel and allow the company to develop.

"Sell the company to me!" Su Yang thought for a moment and said, "I can buy it at a slightly higher price, so you won't be so stressed out!"

"Uh……"

Liao Mingjun was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that he was discussing business today!

Thinking of what he had just talked about with Su Yang, Liao Mingjun's face turned red.

But he soon thought it through if Jiuxiang wanted to conduct a valuation on Fengyuan.

These things are no secret and will be audited sooner or later.

But he still felt Su Yang's determination, he just wanted to buy the company directly!

Liao Mingjun said helplessly: "But if I don't run a company, I don't know what I can do!"

"You can become the company's vice president and continue to participate in the development of the company. I can also give you a 3% dry stock dividend."

Su Yang noticed that Liao Mingjun still had some talent in the management and operation of supply chain companies.

Entry level, ordinary level, skilled level, proficient level...Liao Mingjun has already reached the ordinary level.

It is indeed not bad to have such ability at the age of 25.

After all, this is a supply chain company, not an ordinary shop!
Moreover, after business simulation, he found that Liao Mingjun's desire to control the company was not as persistent as Ji Guoxiong said.

If he accepts Ji Guoxiong's teachings, his abilities will be greatly improved.

"This……"

Su Yang said softly: "A small company like yours has meager profits. If there is a slight disturbance in the market, you may not be able to pay wages!"

Liao Mingjun admitted very frankly: "It is indeed true!"

"Sell the company to me, the name will not change, and I will increase investment." Su Yang continued to persuade, "As long as the employees work hard, I will not touch them!"

Liao Mingjun was a little shaken: "Can you let me go back and think about it carefully?"

Su Yang smiled and nodded: "Of course!"

Liao Mingjun walked out of Jiuxiang Catering, with Su Yang's words in his mind.

He shook his head, feeling that his performance just now was like that of a rookie in the workplace!

Su Yang seemed to have a unique charm that made it easy for people to let down their guard.

To be honest, thinking about it now, even he, a grown man, feels a little embarrassed.

But what Su Yang said also makes sense.

Selling myself directly to Jiuxiang might be a good choice.

He doesn't have much money left!
After becoming the boss of the company, he finally felt the pressure his father was under!

It’s not like he hasn’t thought about letting go, but he’s not willing to do so!
Moreover, Su Yang also promised that he would not fire employees at will and would retain the Fengyuan signboard.

These all hit Liao Mingjun's sore spot!

The company's employees are quite supportive of him, and he doesn't want to let them down.

He also has deep feelings for the name "Fengyuan", which is the result of his father's hard work!

Moreover, "Fengyuan" may only be able to develop if it is handed over to a genius like Su Yang.

After Liao Mingjun left, Ji Guoxiong came to Su Yang's office.

He asked curiously, "Boss, how did the talk go?"

"It's almost like ten!"

Ji Guoxiong was surprised and asked, "Is he really willing to sell the company?"

Su Yang nodded: "There must be a willingness!"

Ji Guoxiong took a deep breath: "Then why did he say no when I asked him?"

Su Yang smiled!

Jiang Yuzhen smiled and said, "Maybe the boss is easier for people to get close to!"
