Rebirth Starting as a Stock Market Enthusiast

"Brother Fei, I'm here to help you out! Aren't you short-staffed? I'll be Li Yuanyuan's assistant! For free!"

Zhao Jun looked righteous, almost as if he were swearing an oath to heaven.

"Brother, to be honest, are you thinking of pursuing Li Yuanyuan again? Let me tell you, this woman is not simple. You should think it through."

"No, I was just bored and wanted to get some part-time work, that's all..."

"Damn, do you even believe that yourself?"

Zhao Jun: "..."

He didn't believe it at first, but when he saw Li Yuanyuan again, he was completely captivated.

Li Yuanyuan was already quite pretty, but today, wow, her looks and figure are even better than Song Ting's.

Of course, he's definitely not as good as Zhou Yun, but is Zhou Yun even human? She's like a ruthless abbess! She wilted the moment she saw him.

Before he went to Zhou Yun's side, he had been chasing after Li Yuanyuan, but Li Yuanyuan always kept her at arm's length. Now that he had a chance to get close to Li Yuanyuan, he definitely had to seize the opportunity.

"Brother Fei, just do me a favor, okay? You know I used to have a crush on Li Yuanyuan."

Shen Fei said helplessly, "No, do you know what an assistant does? Besides serving tea and water, they also have to run errands."

"No problem! I've got plenty of strength, I was just looking for a way to use it!"

"Brother, why are you doing this to yourself? Besides running errands, you also have to be the driver..."

"I have a car, so picking her up and dropping her off every day is no problem. Besides, I can not only pick up and drop off Li Yuanyuan, but also the photographer."

"Fine, I can't argue with you. So what about your family? How are you going to explain this to them?"

"I..." This question really stumped Zhao Jun.

Shen Fei could tell from his expression that he was stumped, and said, "Brother, I have an idea, what do you think?"

"Brother Fei, please speak."

"Okay, if you really want to be Li Yuanyuan's assistant, that's fine too. I'll talk to your dad about it for you. Just don't let it slip, you..."

Shen Fei swore that he originally just wanted to use Zhao Jun's name to seriously discuss business with his father. Bringing Zhao Jun to meet Li Yuanyuan was not his deliberate arrangement. It just so happened that he was going to the car dealership to discuss cooperation, and Qin Ziyi brought Li Yuanyuan to shoot footage today.

But he didn't expect Zhao Jun to be such a scoundrel, taking advantage of every opportunity to fawn over him.

"Alright, since you're so determined, brother, then this arduous task will be yours."

Shen Fei reluctantly agreed and brought Zhao Jun to Li Yuanyuan: "Yuanyuan, this is Zhao Jun. He will be your assistant from now on. Just tell me if you need anything."

After Shen Fei finished speaking, Zhao Jun, that lackey, immediately ran over and fawned over Li Yuanyuan. Shen Fei couldn't bear to watch any longer, so he led Qin Ziyi towards the office inside the car dealership.

"Brother Fei, the more Zhao Jun looks at him, the more he seems like a simp."

Qin Ziyi looked at Zhao Jun, who was trying to please Li Yuanyuan, and asked in a low voice.

"Be confident, remove the image. Why are young women so popular these days? It's because you simps are so pathetic."

Nowadays, the dominant female-dominant relationship has almost become the standard dating pattern, and this is the root of the problem!

Soon, the two arrived at the door of the general manager's office. Qin Ziyi stepped forward and pushed open the door. He had already greeted Qian Hong, the owner of the pawnshop, before Shen Fei arrived. The two went straight in.

Qian Hong was sitting on the sofa smoking when he saw Shen Fei and his group enter. He stood up and smiled, "Mr. Shen, you've come all this way today. Is there some big business opportunity you want to offer to our car dealership?" Qian Hong owns a pawn shop and always greets customers with a smile. Shen Fei wasn't surprised. He laughed heartily and said calmly, "Mr. Qian, you're too kind. I've come today to discuss a potential collaboration with you."

"Mr. Shen, please stop beating around the bush. Just tell me your thoughts. As long as it's suitable, I'm very willing to cooperate with you. However, let me make this clear first: the rental fee for this spot can't be reduced."

Qin Ziyi wasn't clear why Shen Fei had come to see Qian Hong, nor had he communicated with Qian Hong beforehand. Qian Hong simply assumed that Shen Fei had come to discuss the venue rental fee.

"Haha, Mr. Qian, you've misunderstood. I did come here to discuss other collaborations with you. I wonder if you've been following your used car sales lately..." Shen Fei ignored Qian Hong's teasing. He was determined to secure this collaboration. He had already made ample preparations for this collaboration when he arranged for Qin Ziyi to set up the WeChat official account. He immediately had Qin Ziyi bring over the prepared materials.

He had previously investigated Qian Hong's pawnshop and knew that most of the people who came to the pawnshop to borrow money used their houses and cars as collateral. While most people would redeem their houses, it was not so certain that they would redeem their cars. Most of the customers would choose to use their cars to offset their loans, and these cars were mostly luxury cars, since only luxury cars had value as collateral.

A five-year-old Mercedes-Benz E-Class top-of-the-line model costs around 55 yuan new, but if the car is in good condition, it can be sold for around 32 yuan as a used car. However, in reality, when people sell it, they only offer around 25 yuan.

The same applies to used car dealers. They get cars from Qian Hong for a maximum price of 280,000 yuan, then resell them for 40,000 to 50,000 yuan more.

For Qian Hong, these cars don't make much money either; he basically wholesales them to used car dealers, resulting in even lower profits.

As for selling them at one's own used car dealership, although the profit margin could be slightly higher, firstly, in a small place like Anyuan County, only a few luxury cars can be sold throughout the year, and secondly, it requires a lot of manpower to do this, which is really a thankless task.

Therefore, many of the cars in Qian Hong's used car dealership are used to make favors. In his early years, Qian Hong accumulated a lot of capital through pawnshops. Later, he followed the city's private equity firms and achieved financial freedom during the bull market in 05. Now, the pawnshop business is not of much help to him. He values ​​social status more now and wants to advance further but has not been able to find a way.

Over the years, he has invested in many physical enterprises, but his investment vision is limited, and he has basically lost money in all of them.

He also approached those investors for cooperation, but none of them were sincere in cooperating with him, a nouveau riche. They only saw money going out, but no money coming back.

Qian Hong didn't know why Shen Fei suddenly brought up the issue of used car sales. He had always entrusted this business to his nephew, and although he didn't care much about it, he still took the documents and started looking at them. After a while, his brows furrowed slightly: "Mr. Shen, do you mean that Ziyi helped us sell thirty cars after filming videos with us for more than twenty days? But all he filmed were some videos of car models?"

"That's right. If you don't believe me, Mr. Qian, you can call and ask your nephew." Shen Fei replied casually without explaining further. Indeed, when Qin Ziyi wanted to shoot some suggestive videos, Shen Fei had prepared a script for him. Since they were going to shoot videos and pictures of car models anyway, Shen Fei had even asked Qin Ziyi to give those internet celebrities special training.

Actually, it's quite simple. People who buy luxury cars are mostly men, and the fan base of these car model shows is also predominantly male, so there's a high degree of overlap between the two.

Men often glance at cars while looking at beautiful women. If the price is right, or if it's just to show off in front of a woman, the car will naturally sell.

Moreover, these car models only provided educational explanations of the used luxury cars throughout the entire event, without ever mentioning the word "sell." While ostensibly explaining a pawn shop, they were actually selling the cars. Many people are hesitant to buy used cars mainly because they lack knowledge about them. However, after the car models' explanations, they gained a vague understanding of used cars. Furthermore, the used cars at the pawn shop were generally in good condition and inexpensive, naturally attracting buyers.

"Mr. Qian, currently we're only promoting our products in Anyuan County. What do you think the sales would be like if we expanded to the city, the province, or even the whole country?"

Qian Hong pondered for a moment, but instead of answering immediately, he made a phone call.

"Hey, Xiao Wu, I have a question for you. Last month, the car in our store... yeah, that one from TikTok... Okay, got it."

After hanging up the phone, Qian Hong took a deep breath, and when he looked at Shen Fei again, his eyes had changed.

Shen Fei's performance surprised him; a young man in his early twenties was so mature and composed.

Moreover, she was very charming and eloquent, which made him very fond of her.

"Mr. Shen, I'm very interested in this collaboration, but I don't know if you'll need my help..."

"Mr. Qian, you've misunderstood. I've come here with sincerity. The main reason is that I want to expand my business. We in the self-media industry can't go it alone... My idea is to use self-media to make our business bigger... Not to cover the whole country, but at least to cover a few nearby provinces... So... in the early stages, the main focus is on operating our brand..."

After that, Shen Fei and Qian Hong chatted casually.

From brand establishment to operation and promotion, and then to brand franchising.

Shenfei's goal is to showcase its products through social media promotion and stimulate more people's desire to buy.

Moreover, Feiyu Media doesn't charge any money; they only ask for a 5% commission on the products.

As Qian Hong listened to Shen Fei's eloquent speech, he didn't even bother to smoke the cigarette in his hand, which had burned down quite a bit.

Although he didn't quite understand the terms Shen Fei used from time to time, such as private domain traffic and brand matrix, he understood the core logic: Shen Fei was helping him sell cars, and on a large scale and across regions, without needing marketing expenses, only sharing the profits.

Most importantly, the conditions offered by Shenyang Aircraft Corporation were too tempting.

"Five points?" Qian Hong looked at Shen Fei in disbelief. "Mr. Shen, are you sure you only want five points?"

According to industry practice, a 10% commission for used cars is not considered excessive.

Shenfei not only covered the publicity but also handled the traffic generation. For just five points, it was practically free.

"Yes, five points."

Shen Fei remained calm, picked up his teacup, and took a sip. "Mr. Qian, what I value is a long-term partnership. Consider those thirty cars as a small gift to you. From now on, I'll handle the online promotion, and you'll oversee the condition of the vehicles. We'll cooperate and make money together."

These words excited Qian Hong, and he began to think more highly of Shen Fei. This young man was truly remarkable; a few simple words had stirred his emotions.

All the used car dealers I've dealt with before were extremely calculating.

Then look at Shen Fei. He's young, but he's very generous. The profit from those thirty cars must have been at least several hundred thousand, and he only brought it up with me now, giving it away as a gift. This shows that Shen Fei plans things out before he acts. Cooperating with someone like that...

Qian Hong suddenly had an idea. He slapped his thigh and stood up.

"Alright, Brother Shen, it's settled then. I don't know much about the ins and outs of the internet, so you'll be in charge of making all the decisions from now on."

Qian Hong wasn't stupid. He didn't really understand things on the internet. Rather than meddling in things himself, he might as well let Shen Fei handle it. Besides, all Shen Fei wanted was a share of the profits. The cars all went through his hands, so Shen Fei had no chance to do anything underhanded.

"Brother Qian, don't worry, our company has an excellent reputation. Look at that young master Zhao outside, the son of Anyuan Garment. Anyuan Garment specifically sought to cooperate with us. Not only that, you probably also know Zhou Jianhua from Longfor Properties. His daughter is also a contracted talent of our Feiyu Media..."

After Shen Fei finished speaking, Qian Hong turned to look towards the exhibition hall, where he saw Zhao Jun running in from outside, covered in sweat and carrying a case of bottled water, shouting as he ran:

"Yuanyuan! The water's here! The water's chilled!"

Qian Hong watched this scene, his lips twitching slightly. He lowered his voice and said to Shen Fei:

"Brother, your methods are amazing... If that old bastard Zhao Dong knew his son was carrying bricks here, his eyes would probably pop out of his head."

Shen Fei smiled and said, "Brother Qian, don't misunderstand. I don't have that much influence. Young Master Zhao is just a restless person, there's nothing I can do about it."

Qian Hong almost couldn't hold back when he heard Shen Fei say that, and gave him a thumbs up: "Brother, brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!"

As he spoke, Qian Hong seemed to have made a decision. He turned around, took a car key from the safe behind him, and threw it directly to Shen Fei.

"Brother, how can you go out on business without a decent car? This BMW 530, I just got it recently, only 20,000 kilometers on it, practically brand new. I was originally planning to keep it as a favor, but I'm giving it to you now!"

Shen Fei was slightly taken aback: "Brother Qian, this is too valuable. Although I do need a car right now..."

Qian Honghao waved his hand dismissively, interrupting Shen Fei:

"Brother, you're underestimating me by saying that. It's just a car; I have plenty more. This one was originally intended as a gift, but I'm in a good mood today, so it's settled. Besides, we're going to be doing this for a long time, so this one car doesn't matter. Take it! Not taking it means you're disrespecting your brother!"

Shen Fei looked at the key in his hand, then at Qian Hong's sincere face, and stopped being coy.

He does need a car right now. Although he will definitely not need one in the future, the company has not yet started to make a profit, so having a car would make it easier for him to carry out his work.
