Going home for the Chinese New Year with a year-end bonus of 100 million

Yang Fan walked to the door, looked in the mirror, and adjusted his expression to make sure nothing seemed amiss.

Then, I took a deep breath, pushed open the door, and walked slowly down the stairs as if nothing had happened.

In the living room, the discussion about opening a shop had come to an end.

Zhou Jin was holding a small notebook, confirming the list of kitchen utensils that needed to be purchased for opening the shop with Yang Jianguo and Lin's mother.

Zhou Yao and Xiao Ya huddled together, chattering away about what font and color to use for the shop sign logo.

Seeing Yang Fan come downstairs, Lin Xiaoyu was the first to look up, her clear eyes filled with concern.

"Brother, did you... find it?"

"Yes, I found it."

Yang Fan casually replied and naturally walked over to sit down again in the corner of the sofa where he had just been sitting.

His movements were relaxed and his posture casual, as if he had just gone upstairs to get something.

No one noticed anything unusual.

Yang Fan picked up the hot tea that Lin Xiaoyu had already poured for him and took a small sip.

The warm tea slid down his throat, gradually calming his heart, which had been pounding with excitement.

His gaze seemed to casually sweep across the living room, but in reality, he had already locked onto his first "experimental target."

Let's start with...the people closest to us.

"scanning."

He slowly and subtly fixed his gaze on his father, Yang Jianguo, who was discussing tomorrow's purchase order with his third uncle with great enthusiasm.

Focus your gaze.

one second.

two seconds.

three seconds.

Yang Fan silently uttered that word in his heart, with a hint of anticipation and nervousness.

"scanning."

The moment he finished speaking, a pale blue light screen, visible only to him, instantly unfolded beside his father.

Name: Yang Jianguo

[Current Status]: Vegetable stall operator

[Investment Potential Project]: Upgrading and expanding the "Dongyuan Market Vegetable Stalls"

[Project Potential Rating]: C- (Traditional industry, limited growth potential)

[Recommended Investment Amount]: 10,000 - 30,000 yuan

[Expected return period]: 6 - 12 months

Risk Index: 6 (Medium)

[Key Weakness]:

1. Traditional business philosophy and lack of innovation.

2. Weak digital capabilities (unable to use e-commerce/online marketing).

3. Poor customer acquisition capabilities (heavily reliant on natural customer traffic).

4. Weak awareness of cost control.

[Recommended Empowerment Items]:

"Modern Retail Management Thinking" (Price: 120 investment coins)

"Basic Digital Marketing" (priced at 80 investment coins)

Customer Relationship Development Techniques (Price: 60 Investment Coins)

[System Note]: The target character has several core weaknesses and requires multiple items to assist him. It is recommended to consider investing only after accumulating 300 investment coins.

"really……"

Yang Fan looked at the series of shortcomings analyzed and nodded to himself.

The system's evaluation was very objective.

My father was an honest farmer and construction worker his whole life, so it was really too difficult for him to suddenly switch to business and even manage to operate both online and offline.

"Dad's project... has too many shortcomings, and it needs three tools to make up for them. I don't have a single investment coin right now."

"PASS!!!"

Having made up his mind, Yang Fan's gaze naturally shifted to the kitchen doorway, where his mother, Wang Xiuying, was talking to Lin's mother.

Again.

"scanning."

Name: Wang Xiuying

[Current Status]: "DouMi Hotpot" restaurant - prospective legal entity/operator

[Investment Opportunity]: "DouMi Hotpot" Restaurant

[Project Potential Rating]: B- (Specialty restaurants have potential, but the operator's core competencies are the main limiting factor)

[Recommended Investment Amount]: 30,000 - 100,000 yuan

[Expected return period]: 4 - 8 months

Risk Index: 5 (Medium)

[Key Weakness]:

1. Never independently operated a store before, with zero management experience.

2. Lack of financial knowledge can easily lead to chaotic accounting and bookkeeping.

3. Lack of awareness of standardized processes, resulting in product flavors that rely on individual improvisation.

4. Poor crisis response capabilities; may panic in the event of an emergency.

[Recommended Empowerment Items]:

"Store Operations Management from Zero to One" (Price: 150 Investment Coins)

"Introduction to Finance in the Restaurant Industry" (Price: 100 investment coins)

"Standardized Process Establishment" (Price: 80 Investment Coins)

"Fundamentals of Crisis Management" (Price: 60 Investment Coins)

[System Note]: Project success requires at least two core tools (store management and basic finance) as support; otherwise, the probability of achieving profitability is less than 40%.

"Mom's situation is a little better than Dad's; her potential rating has reached B-, but she needs more investment coins."

Yang Fan frowned slightly. The hot pot restaurant project itself was good, but his mother, as the operator, also had obvious shortcomings.

"The risk is still too high, let's put it on hold for now."

His gaze continued to move, landing on his third uncle, Yang Jianmin. His third uncle was smiling憨厚ly as he listened to Yang Jianguo speak.

"scanning."

Name: Yang Jianmin

[Current Status]: Vegetable stall helper/manual laborer

[Investable Projects]: No specific projects identified (System assessment: lack of independent management capability and willingness).

[Project Potential Rating]: D (Not suitable as a direct investment target)

[System Recommendation]: You can participate in other people's projects as an excellent executor, but it is not recommended to act as an investment entity.

[Key Weakness]:

1. Poor decision-making ability, accustomed to following orders.

2. Poor business acumen, unable to identify opportunities.

3. Average learning ability, slow to master new skills.

[Recommended Empowerment Tools]: "Execution Enhancement" (50 Investment Coins), "Basic Business Awareness" (80 Investment Coins)

[System Note]: The probability of achieving the expected return on investment is less than 30%, and initial investment is not recommended.

Yang Fan was not surprised to see his third uncle's panel.

My third uncle is just an honest and law-abiding ordinary person. Asking him to lead a business project is indeed asking too much of him.

He then scanned his third aunt, Li Cuihua, and found that she was much the same as his third uncle, with a potential rating of D, and the system did not recommend her as an investment target.

So, what about Lin's mother, who is responsible for the core technology of the hot pot restaurant?

Yang Fan's gaze shifted to the kitchen and landed on Aunt Lin Xiulan, who was washing dishes with Wang Xiuying.

"scanning."

Name: Lin Xiulan

[Current Status]: Trainee Head Chef at "DouMi Hotpot" Restaurant

[Investable Projects]: None (System determination: Role is positioned as professional and technical personnel, not business operators)

[System Recommendation]: You can invest in catering projects in which they participate through "technology equity investment", but a professional management team is required.

Key Advantages:

1. Excellent culinary skills ensure the core competitiveness of the products.

2. Has a serious and responsible work attitude and consistently delivers high-quality work.

[Key Weakness]:

1. Gentle and introverted personality, lacking leadership skills.

2. They only know how to bury themselves in their work and don't understand business strategies.

[Recommended Empowerment Tools]: "Leadership Introduction" (100 Investment Coins), "From Technology to Management" (120 Investment Coins)

[System Note]: As the core technology of the project, it is of extremely high value. However, investing in this asset alone carries enormous risk.

"Indeed, everyone has their own expertise," Yang Fan thought to himself. "Aunt Lin is the best chef, but not the best boss."
