I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

The next day, in a small restaurant on the pedestrian street.

This is a small shop specializing in beef vermicelli and rice noodles. It has been open for 20 years and is considered a time-honored brand. It also has three or four branches in Xinlu, which were opened by Guo Yufeng's relatives.

Wang Xianqi touched his painful forehead and lowered his head to eat beef vermicelli.

Seeing the other person's red forehead, Zhao Lingshan couldn't help but cover her mouth and turned around.

This was obviously left over from the fight last night.

As for who he fought with, it was undoubtedly Guo Yufeng.

"Didn't you say you had some projects to discuss? Why did you think of agriculture? I remember when we were in school, you were always clamoring to do high-end projects like technology and finance." Chen Xi asked jokingly.

"That was my previous thought. The situation is not good now. We will definitely do anything to make money." Wang Xianqi picked up a handful of vermicelli and blew it into the air.

This was the case in the latter part of his previous life. He had abandoned all his previous ideals and was just like most people at the bottom of society. He just wanted to make money!
"Then tell me what we should do?" Chen Xi put some vermicelli into a small bowl, blew on it and passed it to Zhao Lingshan, who kissed him and started eating happily.

"Agriculture is a big project. If you want to make money from it, you must have a good relationship with the government and use their big banner to make money. There are a large number of farmers in our country. Although most of them are still using old production methods, the overall output is very high. After the crops are grown and harvested, they are sent to factories for processing. Most of the processing plants are actually controlled by supply and marketing cooperatives. The current situation is that the output is too large, but the management method of the supply and marketing cooperatives is too old, resulting in a lot of agricultural products being piled up in warehouses.

Then the problem comes. If the enterprise wants to survive but the goods cannot be sold, the final situation is that the enterprise is in debt. However, some enterprises under the supply and marketing cooperatives are not private enterprises, and the increasing debts also need to be resolved. In fact, there is only one way to solve most of the problems over the years, that is, selling the factory! When the buyer buys the enterprise, the previous debt will be cleared.

But this is not a very good solution, the problem of product sales is still not solved. The rise of e-commerce has given supply and marketing cooperatives a new way out, so they followed suit and set up a platform, but no one was interested.

The "Three Rural Issues" policy is actually proposed at various meetings every year. Now the supply and marketing cooperatives are planning to cooperate with private enterprises to solve this problem. I mean, there is a lot of money in this. We help the government solve the problem and make a lot of money from it..."

Wang Xianqi was not good at anything else except talking. He said a lot of gibberish, which was not much different from his previous life.

"So how exactly do you plan to make money from this project?" Chen Xi was still eating the fans.

"There are many people who want to take on this project. Not only do you need the ability, but you also need connections. My father has worked in Huajing, and many leaders there have worked with him. It is not difficult to get this project. The difficulties lie in the funding and the people who can do the work." Wang Xianqi looked at Chen Xi seriously.

What he just said was true. His father Wang Zhi had indeed created a lot of cool things, and one of them was something that every Chinese person would use.

“How much does that cost? Do you want to start an e-commerce platform? It seems that it won’t succeed.” Having experienced failure in his previous life, Chen Xi naturally would not be optimistic about any rural e-commerce platform.

Think about it, even Feng Yunqu, an expert in platform development, failed. Who else can do it?

It’s not a lack of funds or bad ideas, it’s entirely a system problem.

"I don't know the exact amount yet, but my dad said that if we are going to do it, we have to do it on a big scale, and fully utilize the advantages of this big banner and add all the elements that can be added. We are helping to develop domestic agriculture, and it cannot be without any benefits, right?" Wang Xianqi smiled very realistically.

Indeed, the people who participated in this project that year all thought so.

The result is that a bunch of products that have nothing to do with agriculture were introduced, but they were forcibly explained as being related to agriculture, all in the hope of taking advantage of the situation and making a fortune.

The most interesting thing is that when lending was added to the project, something almost went wrong.

In that era, private lending was very common and usury was rampant.

One type of loan that is often mentioned on TV is the school loan, which is a loan provided to a specific group of people.

Most of those who borrow money are girls, and they use their own photos as collateral to borrow money.

Fortunately, Chen Xi stopped this thing at that time and it was not implemented, otherwise the company would be guilty.

Just think about it, an agricultural project can be taken to this extent. You can imagine how much the shareholders want to make money.

"What you are saying now are all empty words. If you want to do this, you need the leader to speak up for you. It's useless before you see the document." Chen Xi said casually.

He was very clear about the process of doing official projects. In his previous life, he had meetings every day.

Usually a meeting is held at the higher levels and a certain document is issued.

After the meeting, the leaders of each department received their own tasks, and now someone was needed to do the work.

Those who are well-informed will go to their leaders and ask indirectly, while others will be inadvertently revealed some information by their leaders during other meetings. If you are smart, you will go to talk to your leader yourself, otherwise the project will most likely not reach your hands.

Chen Xi still remembers this project from his previous life.

The supply and marketing cooperative was in a hurry to complete the task, and they found several companies one after another but were not satisfied. Finally, through Wang Zhi, Chen Xi finally met the leader. Feng Yun was also involved, but he didn't know how the other party got here.

But if you think about it, you will know that a celebrity like Feng Yun who often appears on TV must have his own network of connections. It is very easy to meet the leader and discuss the project.

"We have the documents and everything." Wang Xianqi asked the boss to add another portion of beef.

Chen Xi shook his head. He was very clear about the other party's character. He could even say something was real when it wasn't. He was the same as Ouyang Ming.

"Let's not talk about this for now, let's talk about where to develop in the future. I think Xinlu is too small, and we have to go to first-tier cities. Big companies are all located in Huajing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen. In Huajing, you can hear a lot of news and attend a lot of meetings. It's simply the perfect place to start a business. I just came back and I'm a little short on money. Can you lend me some money? I'll get a bright office there first, and then you can go directly there, and our major agricultural project can be launched..." Wang Xianqi was calculating loudly. After listening to this, Chen Xi looked at Zhao Lingshan, and they both covered their mouths and laughed.

"What are you laughing at? Don't you need a respectable office to do big things?" Wang Xianqi said with a red face and thick neck.

"It's okay, it's okay. Once the project is launched, the office and other things can be set up immediately. Don't worry about that." Chen Xi waved his hand.

He came here today just to see when the project would start. It seemed like it would be a little faster than in his previous life...

Because the office we got from Feng Yun has not been built yet, Wang Xianqi has already come to discuss the project, the speed is indeed a bit fast.

"However, dealing with relevant departments also takes time and money." Wang Xianqi stretched out his fingers and rubbed them in the air without giving up.

Chen Xi understood that this guy just wanted to make some money first.

But what Wang Xianqi said was right. The communication cost in the previous life was indeed not small. If you want to negotiate such a big project with just your mouth without paying anything, it is almost impossible.

This project requires a lot of people to nod their heads in agreement, so naturally, construction can only begin after most people are satisfied.

"Yeah, that makes sense." Chen Xi nodded thoughtfully.

It’s not that he is afraid of spending money, but Wang Xianqi is a bit unreliable. If you give him too much money, he will definitely spend it lavishly in a few days.

"I'm talking to you. We provide both money and manpower, so what do you have to contribute? You're not just talking, are you? How do we know whether those connections you mentioned are real or fake?" Zhao Lingshan couldn't bear to listen any longer. If it were her, she would definitely not take this deal.

"I...we will of course pay, but we have to wait. My dad will send some money by then." Wang Xianqi pretended to be calm.

"Oh? What money?" Zhao Lingshan persisted.

"The money from selling coal." Wang Xianqi said.

Hearing this, Chen Xi did not speak. He knew the money from selling coal. He had sold coal with Wang Zhi in his previous life.

Many people have also heard of the profession of coal boss, and they all know that they can make a lot of money by selling coal.

But in the country, there are many power plants and coal prices are rising every year.

As a result, there have been major fires in overseas coal mines.

Most of my country's coal imports come from two places, one is Russia and the other is South Africa.

In fact, you can make a lot of money from this coal trade. After deducting the fees for each link, you can make tens of millions of yuan from a single deal. This money is the intermediary service fee, which is the money earned by the trading company.

Although coal is profitable, it is very difficult to close a deal. The people in South Africa are dishonest and like to falsify contracts. The Russians are not much better. They often go back on their word once the price is agreed upon. In short, it takes a long time to reach a cooperation agreement.

It is complete nonsense that Wang Xianqi said that it would take at least one or two years for the money to arrive in the account.

"I have a friend in Australia who is very similar to you. We both want to do big projects. You two can work together if there is a chance." Chen Xi couldn't help laughing when he suddenly thought of Ouyang Ming.

He had thought about a very interesting thing before. What would the scene be like if Ouyang Ming and Wang Xianqi were put together to start a business?
Neither of them wants to put in any effort, and both rely on words, and both want others to invest money...

Afternoon, Huade Science Park.

"Didn't I tell you before not to return to China? Why did you come back secretly and didn't even answer the phone?" Chen Yifeng looked at his son in front of him with a gloomy face.

"Didn't you ask me to get an identity? I'm getting it right now. Of course I'll be back to celebrate the New Year. Don't you want to receive blessings from your eldest son in the New Year?" Chen Xi answered in a servile manner.

"Don't try to play tricks on me. You must be thinking that since I'm getting married again, the inheritance won't fall into your hands, so you come back now to try to divide the family property."

"That must have been said by Zhang Xuan. I have hands and feet, so why should I share your money? But then again, your money belongs to my grandmother and my mother, so it's only natural that it belongs to me. It doesn't seem fair that Zhang Xuan can reap the fruits of others' labor without paying anything."

"Let's not talk about this for now. Let's talk about what you plan to do in the future. Last time, I gave you Xunjie Company. I wanted to see how capable you are. But now it's been a year and the company doesn't seem to be profitable." Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Chen Yifeng quickly changed the subject.

"Why are you still investigating my company? I had to study before and didn't have time to manage the company. Now that I've graduated, I don't have to worry about the company's profitability."

"Excuses, all excuses! You just have no talent. When you did not do well on the exams when you were a kid, you also made up a lot of excuses."

"Hey, let's not talk about this for now. I found a lot of equipment in Huade's warehouse before, and now a bunch of messy brands suddenly appeared on the market, but these brands are obviously not from small factories. They can be said to be exactly the same as Huade. I have only seen people selling dog products under the guise of selling mutton before, but I didn't expect that someone could sell mutton under the guise of selling dog meat! Don't you want to explain?" Chen Xi took a sip of tea carelessly.

"What's the big deal? It's just a business tactic." Chen Yifeng was not angry because of his son's change of subject. Instead, he said complacently, "Huade's performance has not been very good in the past two years. Some people think they have mastered some customer resources and learned some technology, so they want to start their own business. Machine tools are not Internet celebrity products. What is needed is brand accumulation. You can't just advertise and attract some customers to build a factory.

You see, there are many small factories on the market now. Those people came out of Huade. They are traitors. My way of dealing with traitors is to make life difficult for them. Don’t they want to start their own business? Don’t they want to grab Huade’s market? They naively think that they can defeat me by using price wars and low prices to attract consumers. I will mess up the market. I have created a lot of new brands. The prices of these products are lower than theirs, and the effects are better than theirs. Let’s see how these traitors can survive.”

Chen Xi was stunned after hearing this. This move seemed very sharp and could indeed eliminate those small factories that had just emerged in the market.

But there is also a disadvantage, which is that it will consume a lot of Ward's funds.

This is equivalent to spending money to eliminate competitors. The new brands created by Chen Yifeng also require after-sales service, which results in more manpower being required to do the work.

Huade’s after-sales service is somewhat difficult because its equipment is sold all over the world and it has to set up outlets in every place. If a tug-of-war develops in the domestic market, the consequences will be disastrous.

"We must use blitzkrieg. If those people join forces with some of Huade's big global brand competitors, once they are stuck in the quagmire of war, they will be dragged down sooner or later." Chen Xi was a little worried.

After all, he has watched Ward grow up since he was a child, and it would be a lie to say that he has no feelings for him.

When Chen Yifeng heard this, the pride he had just shown disappeared completely.

The father and son suddenly fell silent.

"Last time I saw you bring back a girlfriend from Sakura Country. Why didn't I see her this time? Did you break up?" After a long time, Chen Yifeng suddenly asked about his son's private life.

"No." Chen Xi shook his head.

"A good man should have ambitions. Don't give up a great career just because of a woman. It's too early for you to fall in love now. Wait until you are 40 years old before considering it. Even if you fall in love and get married now, you may regret it in the future." The man suddenly turned into an old father who spoke with earnest words.

"What about you? It seems like you don't focus on your work after remarriage." Chen Xi asked back.

"I am who I am. I have already achieved success in my career." Chen Yifeng became unhappy again when he saw his son blaming him.

"Hey, Huade was built by you and my mom. Grandma is an investor. I don't want to see you lose your ambition because of a woman and ignore the company every day. The situation in the company is not good now. Most employees are actually very dissatisfied. If it continues for a long time, it may suddenly explode."

"It's all your mother's fault. She's been trying to steal my guys every day, and I don't want to bother with her. By the way, your mother was defeated last time in Di, that...that..." Chen Yifeng suddenly hesitated and kept gesturing in the air with his hands.

The person he was referring to was naturally Fang Haoran, but it was not easy to say such things directly since he was his former love rival after all.

"I don't know anything. I've been staying abroad. If you want to know, just go and ask yourself. Hehehe." Chen Xi's expression was quite mean at this time, and he deliberately raised his eyebrows at Chen Yifeng.

After leaving Huade, Chen Xi went straight to Xunjie Company.

It is indeed as Chen Yifeng said, Xunjie has not made any profit so far.

It’s not that it’s not profitable, but Chen Xi asked people to take the shells of the collected old home appliances to the scrap recycling station.

When a company is not profitable, the boss is usually the most anxious, but this is an exception in Xunjie Company.

As a boss, Chen Xi was not anxious at all. Instead, it was the employees who were anxious.

Because they had experienced the situation of the company going bankrupt and being unable to pay wages before, Fang Shiyu and others were now in a state of panic.

"I say, you're wandering around in the company every day. What are you doing? The boss asked you to come here, but don't you create value every day?" Fang Shiyu felt a little unhappy when he saw Zhang Youting walking around in the workshop.

"Don't just blame me. You haven't created any value yourself." Zhang Youting looked at the big man in front of him with a playful smile.

The set that was originally in the temple was taken out again.

"How come I haven't created any value? Aren't these old appliances dismantled by us brothers?" Fang Shiyu angrily threw the tools in his hand onto the table, wanting to have a good argument with the other party.

"Don't mess around. A gentleman uses words, not fists. I tell you, I am a martial monk. You will definitely suffer if I fight." Zhang Youting made a mantis fist gesture.

"Hmph." Fang Shiyu sneered, and the workers around him surrounded him.

"The boss put me here, of course he has a great intention. Don't always be so conservative. How much money can you make from manufacturing electrical appliances? There are so many home appliance manufacturers in the market. They play with the supply chain and engage in price wars. What ability do we rely on to compete with others? Look at this tiny factory. How many home appliances can it produce at most? Use your brain." Seeing that the other party had more people and more power, Zhang Youting immediately chose to admit defeat and began to attack with verbal attacks.

"Then tell me if you have any good ideas now?" Fang Shiyu patted Zhang Youting's shoulder with his big hand.

"Yes, of course there is a way. Based on my observations over this period of time, I have found the strengths of you people..." Zhang Youting explained, touching his long hair. (End of this chapter)
