Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again-Chapter 333 - 137: Paying Back with Interest, Nanaz Is Stunned
The next afternoon, after class, Su Zelin returned to the dormitory.
The first thing he did was turn on his computer and log into the financial college BBS.
As expected, the campus forum was almost flooded with posts about last night’s May Fourth Art Performance.
Among them, the most popular posts with the most views and replies were almost all related to him.
Due to their craze for "Meteor Garden," the girls at the financial college, loving the house and its crows, coupled with the fact that the guy was handsome, good at everything, and talented, seemed to be madly adored by everyone.
The BBS female moderator Li Yanru, in response to public sentiment, tagged a few of the posts with a "hot" label, adding fuel to the fire.
Looks like, for a while, I’ll be a hot topic on campus.
I can make good use of this wave to advertise for the digital side.
Just as Su Zelin was thinking about this.
"Ding ding ding..."
A nerdy avatar with big round glasses on QQ started bouncing, a new message came in.
Haoran: "Zelin, I heard you were at the financial college’s May Fourth Art Performance?"
Eh, Haoran found out so soon?
Su Zelin quickly figured out the reason.
Handsome at One Year Old: "Did Xiaoyanzi tell you?"
It’s probably Qin Shiqing who told Xiaoyanzi, then Xiaoyanzi chatted about it with her good friend, that’s how it spread.
Haoran: "Yeah!"
I knew it.
Qin Shiqing, you’ve changed!
Your mouth isn’t as good as before.
You used to keep things like this to yourself, wouldn’t casually spill them out...
But now you’re so gossipy.
Su Zelin complained inwardly.
Haoran: "Zelin, why didn’t you tell me about attending the college’s art performance?"
Handsome at One Year Old: "It’s such a small thing, not worth mentioning."
Haoran: "Sweat, this is small? This is the big stage of a college-level art performance, even here at the Polytechnic University, only one person from the whole department went on stage to perform!"
Even though Lu Haoran knew Su Zelin was a regular at art performances back in Jianglan Second High School, he was still surprised when he heard from Xiaoyanzi.
The honest guy chatted with him for a while, then ended the conversation because Lu Haoran didn’t have a computer and just borrowed his roommate’s to send and receive messages daily.
Continuing to browse the financial college BBS, after a while, the Nokia 8210 rang, and it turned out to be Kang Baohong.
"Hello, boss, is it convenient for you to talk?"
While Kang Baohong was talking on the phone, one could still hear the bustling sounds of people and the low hum of an engine in the background, presumably on a bus.
Looks like I have to get a car sooner or later. As the boss of New Era, soon to be a big player with millions, not having even a small car is quite unpresentable. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
Moreover, as the general manager, Kang Baohong still has to squeeze onto a bus, which is unreasonable. We could buy one under my name, officially the company car for the digital store, and I could occasionally use it myself.
But this matter has to wait a little longer, even though I’ll have fifty thousand soon, I still have to use them to continue rolling the snowball, and a decent car costs tens of thousands, and pulling out such a big sum of money doesn’t seem worth it to Su Zelin.
Once the branch stores are set up and the assets reach several million, it can be considered, which won’t take too long.
This semester, settle the branch at Zhejiang University, next semester simultaneously a few more, targeting Polytechnic, Normal University areas.
While contemplating these plans, Su Zelin responded, "Baohong, go on."
"Those two computer stores at Zhejiang University have been secured, but they haggled for a few more days, insisting on more money!"
Kang Baohong brought good news, yet his tone was a bit disappointed.
Originally, he hoped to lower the price and perform well in front of the boss during this acquisition, but the outcome wasn’t as ideal as expected.
The acquisition price was nearly double the valuation, within Su Zelin’s psychological expectation.
With those two computer stores, you could say there’s not much profit, but after a year, relying on selling mouse and keyboard peripherals and discs, there’s still some margin, and since the owner didn’t post it for sale, so it needed a premium acquisition.
"It’s okay, Baohong, it’s already good, the key is we can secure them, and it didn’t exceed my bottom line."
Su Zelin comforted him with a few words but didn’t suspect the general manager of reporting false prices for personal gain.
Kang Baohong isn’t one of those old hands pondering how to discreetly siphon off profits while sitting in their position; he’s full of youthful zeal, hoping to establish something, being a leech isn’t something he could ever do, that’s why Su Zelin picked him to manage New Era, not just for his potential.
Besides, once a personal siphon happens, there’s a second time, and Su Zelin has many ways to find out, so he’s not worried about his subordinates pulling tricks.
After hanging up the phone, Su Zelin didn’t browse the forum anymore, focusing on important matters, his thoughts stirring.
The two computer stores at Zhejiang University have been settled, so the payment needs to be finalized quickly, and the decoration and other arrangements need to be on the agenda, aiming to finish by June, gaining popularity and reputation before the holiday, and then during the next semester’s peak period for computer setups, to make a good profit.
The Zhejiang University side will make more money than the financial college because the market scale is larger, and the store size assigned by Zhou Fuliang is more considerable than that of the financial college.
Although the rent will be higher, the store can be more grand, in this way, Su Zelin is also confident to capture a larger share, it’s certainly worthwhile!
Before this, there’s an important issue, money needs to be in place.
The B-share market side, it’s time to close the net!
Actually, speaking, it could still last for about half a month.
However, the B-share market’s third-month rise was very small, already at its limit, with a looming collapse.
