Chapter 52
Under the grape trellis, the three chatted deeper and deeper.
Gu Fei, who is in his early thirties, is cynical on the surface, but he is actually a very thoughtful and intelligent person.
Seeing Wu Tao nodded, he asked a series of questions.
"As far as I know, drinking fountains and bottled water are only affordable for wealthy families. Ordinary enterprises and institutions can't afford them at all. After all, this is a huge expense."
"You are right." Wu Tao guided and said: "This shows that the current water dispenser market is still in its infancy."
"Just like the color TV back then, the 21-inch Hitachi in my house was sent by my uncle from Taiwan in 1991. Not counting the shipping fee, it was more than 5,000 yuan, and most people couldn't afford it."
"It's only been four years now, and the domestically produced Changhong 21-inch only costs 3,000 yuan, while the imported Hitachi has also dropped to 4,000 yuan. In two years, if you look at it, the price will still fall."
"What's more, society is constantly moving forward, and life must be getting better every day. Before long, water dispensers, air conditioners, and even mobile phones will penetrate into thousands of households and become common things like electric lights and televisions. "
Gu Fei pondered: "In your opinion, how long will it take for this market to mature?"
"ten years!"
"So long?" Gu Fei hesitated.
The experience of earning one million a week seems to be just yesterday, and now he wants to invest this one million in a market that takes ten years to mature, and his first reaction is that he cannot accept it.
"Is there no other good way?"
In his opinion, the more money he has, the better his business should be.
In the past, when running a small business, what I envied most was the big boss with a lot of money. How come it's my turn, but I'm tied up.
In fact, Wu Tao has been thinking about this issue for the past few days.
In my memory, the years of 1995 and 1996 were very embarrassing stages.
The great opportunity for stock market speculation has just passed, and the tide of the electronic age is far from coming.
As for the Internet industry, it is in the initial stage of burning money. Money can only come in and out, and there is no benefit in the short term.
The most popular ones right now should be VCD and DVD players, but with the amount of money they have, they are not qualified to enter the market at all.
As for the health care product industry, which is booming like a rising sun, with his honest character, he can't handle it at all.
Since these opportunities are destined to be missed, Wu Tao does not want to miss out on the rise of the mobile phone industry and the start of the real estate industry two years later!
For this reason, the only way to start a business is to use the funds in hand as soon as possible to complete the primitive accumulation of capital.
Only in this way, when the opportunity comes, he will have the opportunity to sit at the poker table and get a chance to enter the game.
Therefore, the water dispenser, a new business, was the best choice after repeated consideration.
After all, as a small household appliance, the water dispenser is not complicated in technology. With the little money in their hands, they can afford to play around.
However, in his development blueprint, he does not intend to follow the development path of his previous life, but to introduce innovation, catalyze the market, and accelerate the maturity of the industry.
"Brother Fei, do you know how big the water dispenser market will be in ten years' time?"
Gu Fei shook his head blankly.
Wu Tao stretched out a finger and said, "100 billion!"
"Oh my god~" An Rong covered her mouth and nose with an exclamation, and Gu Fei was even more moved: "Really?"
"Of course it is true! As long as we can occupy 10% of the market, it will be 10 billion!"
Gu Fei stood up slowly, and made up his mind: "Listen to you, do what you say, do it!"
"That's good! If you don't investigate, you have no right to speak!" Wu Tao began to assign tasks with a smile, "Go to the mall first to see the general situation of the water dispensers on the market. Then go to the manufacturers of domestic water dispensers to investigate, of course. Go in the name of an agent. It’s best to get more information back, and it’s even better if you can recruit a few technical talents to come over!”
"In addition, you can take a look at the operation and franchise models of water delivery stations in big cities like Jinling."
An Rong frowned and said, "Don't you want to make a water dispenser? Why do you want to inspect the water delivery station?"
"Water dispensers and bottled water are our products, and water delivery stations are equivalent to channels. If we want to successfully enter the market, quickly seize the market, and mature the market, we must adopt a model that emphasizes both products and channels."
Gu Fei couldn't understand these new words, but he still memorized them carefully.
Since these vocabulary can make him stunned for a while, then he will definitely make others look at him with admiration.
Speaking of channels, Wu Tao casually wrote down the word "Suguo" on the paper.
"What is this?" An Rong asked.
Wu Tao rubbed his head, his memory was a bit fuzzy, and he couldn't figure out whether Suguo Supermarket opened this year or next year.
If it is not open, then the supermarket chain is also a promising development idea.
But he couldn't explain it now, so he could only vaguely say: "It's nothing, by the way, Brother Fei, after you arrive in Jinling, take a look at the situation of the chain supermarkets, what brands are there and how big are they."
Gu Fei wrote down one by one, greeted his friends in advance, and left in a hurry.
An Rong looked at the back of her brother-in-law in a hurry, her beautiful eyes glowed with splendor.
"I really didn't expect my uncle to have a prodigal son turn around one day. Seeing how serious he is in his career, grandma and grandpa would be so happy if they found out. All of this is due to you!"
"Then how are you going to reward me?"
With a sip, An Rong pounced on his cheek, "Is this enough?"
Wu Tao shook his head, serious, "No, I wasn't ready just now, try again!"
"Heck~ I miss you so much!"
Suddenly, Xiao Jiang ran over and said out of breath, "Brother, accountant Xu is here again."
"Go, take a look!"
In the main room, Accountant Xu still looked like a bird of a young man, slumped on the sofa, sitting in an extremely indecent posture.
"Old Wu, how many times have I come here for this matter, why don't you eat oil and salt?"
Wu Binghua smoked a cigarette, exhaled mist, and said kindly: "Accountant Xu, even if you come a thousand times, it is impossible for my family to agree to this matter."
Although this posture is not as fearful of the opponent as before, the strength it should have is still not shown.
Where can I do this? For this kind of rubbish riding on the heads of ordinary people and domineering, we should go back face to face!
"Old Wu, show me some face, a fellow from the village!"
"Why give you face?" Wu Tao interrupted directly when he entered the room.
Accountant Xu choked on a puff of old cigarette.
Wu Binghua also felt that this was a slap in the face, so he gave his son a look.
However, Wu Tao pretended not to see it, and said in a strange way: "My family ran this farmhouse, did you contribute to it or did you pay for it? If I remember correctly, not only did you not produce anything, but you also planned to come every day for free food and IOUs." Bar?"
Accountant Xu's old face turns green and turns pale. He has been domineering for so many years. How has he ever received such treatment?
"...When you cut off our home appliances, why didn't you think of giving us face?"
"...Besides, now that I save one dollar for one kilowatt-hour of electricity in my home, why should I have trouble with money? You still think my house is as easy to manage and easy to bully as before?"
"Old Wu, if you spoil your son like this and speak wild words, will you be able to pay back in the future?"
"Now he is the master of this family." Wu Binghua said out of boredom.
"you!"
