Chapter 230 Ali's Worries

In the early 84s, only Wellcome was large enough in Hong Kong. Even the famous China Resources Vanguard was not officially established as a chain group until .

This is exactly an opportunity for Chen Fan.

Once an industry is monopolized by giants, it will be much more difficult for you to enter the market: "If you don't have a team, you can form one. First understand it, then buy it."

"If the supermarkets are unwilling to sell, we will find a way to find the landlords and take over the property rights of the stores. We must take over enough supermarkets within this year."

"Okay, Mr. Chen!" Yu Jing's mouth twitched slightly.

No wonder he is called a "ruthless person" by the media. If he can't buy the supermarket, he will set his sights on the real estate. Then he will have a lot of room for manipulation. If he doesn't renew the lease when the contract expires, he can kill people.

Unfortunately, the property market is sluggish this year and commercial real estate prices are even lower, so Chen Fan doesn't have to pay much to acquire the property rights of these houses.

If the price is right, many landlords are willing to sell.

Chen Fan is also making plans, using Hong Kong as a model to create a viable business model, which can be directly copied once the mainland market is completely opened up.

It's not just the mainland. Once we have sufficient funds and a talented team, we can also expand into foreign markets and become a giant in the retail industry.

After finalizing this matter, Chen Fan continued, "Also, keep an eye on shipping companies and port management companies. As long as there are any companies willing to sell, we can negotiate."

"Mr. Chen, these are all heavy assets."

“But the prospects are great, aren’t they?”

Needless to say, the more developed the economy, the higher the efficiency of shipping. In the next few decades, the global economy will develop rapidly, and it will definitely not be a loss to engage in shipping.

I have also invested in a shipyard in the mainland. If there is a shipping company, I can place some orders there in the early stage to boost the development of the shipyard, killing two birds with one stone.

As for the port operating rights, we have to mention Hong Kong's Li Chaoren, who later bought the operating rights of many ports, which are excellent assets that can make a profit by collecting rent.

Others can do it, why can't Chen Fan?

Just copy what you see.

We currently lack talent, so we cannot engage in high-tech industries and cannot serve food on the table for the time being, but there is still great potential for development in these traditional industries.

It's about making money, no matter what you do.

After discussing for most of the day and finalizing the matter, Chen Fan took his two wives directly back to Beijing. Zhao Yuanyuan's entrepreneurial project would not start until the acquisition was completed.

After finishing the things here, Chen Fan only had two things left, one was his graduation thesis, and the other was to help Xu Jinqiu to oversee the implementation of the charity fund's projects.

Another 2000 million US dollars came into the charity fund!

This money came from Chenfan Publishing House, including Chen Fan's royalties and dividends.

The publishing house has developed very well in the past two years. After "The Matrix" and "The Hunger Games", Chen Fan wrote "In Time", "Snowpiercer" and the "Divergent" trilogy.

All of his films are about dystopia, and their sales are very high both in Hong Kong and in Western countries, so much so that the media gave him the nickname: The Master of Dystopia.

In his previous life, Chen Fan preferred dystopian themes when watching movies, and he didn't want to write anything that glorified the West, but it seems appropriate to use it now.

It's all about making money, so it's not shameful.

Not only Western novels, but also the two novels "Zhu Yuanzhang" and "The Glory of the Ming Dynasty" were published in Hong Kong, and their sales were also good.

Over the past two years, the publishing house has accumulated a lot of funds. In addition to settling royalties, Chen Fan also made some dividends, totaling 4000 million US dollars.

Among them, 2000 million US dollars were given to Xu Jinqiu, and the remaining 2000 million US dollars were given to Zhao Yuanyuan to develop cosmetics and skin care brands.

After receiving the money, Zhao Yuanyuan did not look happy, but rather resentful: "Really? How can you force people to start a business?"

Chen Fan hugged her and teased her, "Are you not happy even though I gave you money? In our family, you are the most money-hungry person. When you were in the club, you could be happy for several days after earning a few thousand yuan."

“Just because I like making money doesn’t mean I like starting a business.”

Zhao Yuanyuan buried her head in Chen Fan's arms and arched her head hard: "Besides, I have my own money, enough for me to spend for the rest of my life. I really don't want to start a business." "Then you should find your elder sister. I'm not forcing you." Chen Fan shook his head. He was the one who started this, but the one who made the final decision was Zeng Ali.

Only Zeng Ali can control Miss Zhao.

"Go talk to her and ask her to stop forcing me, okay, brother..."

Delicate, with a clip sound!
Chen Fan's bones were half soft. When had Miss Zhao ever acted like a spoiled child to him? This was the first time in history.

This call of "brother" is no less effective than the call of "Your Majesty, my brother" by the Queen of the Kingdom of Women!
Chen Fan wanted to agree, but Zeng Ali came over and kissed him on the lips, saying in the same tender voice, "Stinky brother, don't speak for her."

“……” Chen Fan was stunned.

What happened to the two girls? All of a sudden, they both learned to act like a spoiled brat. This was the first time for Zhao Yuanyuan, and it was also a rare occurrence for Zeng Ali. This was very wrong.

"Zeng Ali, don't go too far!"

Zhao Yuanyuan was furious, but Zeng Ali didn't care. He pulled Miss Zhao's ear and dragged her directly to the east wing, intending to teach her a lesson.

Chen Fan looked at Xu Jinqiu and scratched his head: "What's going on between them?"

"How would I know."

Xu Jinqiu rolled her eyes and imitated the sound of the clip: "Brother, stinky little brother, hey, you three went to Hong Kong and had a lot of fun."

Chen Fan walked over and hugged his wife angrily, "Teacher Xu, are you jealous? How about we go on vacation without them?"

"I'm not that stingy."

Xu Jinqiu rolled her eyes and hugged him with her backhand: "My mother asked me something a few days ago, and I thought we should discuss it and see what to do."

"Ok?"

"It's about marriage. Not only our mom, but your mothers-in-law are all worried about it. It's not right not to hold a wedding, but holding a wedding is not easy either."

Hearing this, Chen Fan couldn't help but smile bitterly.

In the current situation, no matter what I do, it will almost be wrong. Who asked me to marry three women?

However, graduation is around the corner, so it’s time to put it on the agenda: “Wait until Big Sister and Yuanyuan are done fighting, then call them over to discuss it together. We can’t make the decision by ourselves.”

"Zeng Ali, don't go too far. I just want to be a salted fish. Is that wrong?"

Miss Zhao was still very stubborn. Even though she had agreed before, she was thinking of cheating as long as the work hadn't started yet. She really had no interest in doing it.

Even though he was pressed down on the bed by Zeng Ali, he still maintained his stubborn attitude.

"You're still a salted fish. You're almost as lazy as a dried salted fish."

Zeng Ali pinched Miss Zhao's cheek and pulled it hard: "We agreed on this in Hong Kong. Now that the money is ready, how can we just not do it?"

Miss Zhao was unconvinced and said, "The money is ready, not spent. If it doesn't work, use it to buy futures. Anyway, the gold price is still falling and the return is still high."

"Don't even think about it. This is non-negotiable."

"Zeng Ali, we don't do this. If you want to start a business, don't drag me into it. I'm just a small fry. Isn't it good for me to be a salted fish in peace?"

"Not good!" Zeng Ali said affirmatively.

Zhao Yuanyuan struggled hard several times but failed to break free. She said with a bitter face: "Sister, you are my sister, right? Since we were young, you said you would take care of me for the rest of my life. You can't go back on your word, right?"

Zeng Ali said: "It's normal for a woman to not keep her word, isn't it?"

Zhao Yuanyuan was so angry that she laughed: "Zeng Ali, don't say these useless things. I am just a little waste. Why are you pushing me away? Unless you give me a reason."

Hearing this, Zeng Ali frowned, with a hint of worry on his face. He sighed slightly before letting go of Miss Zhao: "Okay, wait until I finish talking. If you don't want to start a business, I won't force you."
