Chapter 116: Chapter 116: Price equals to Giving Away_1

Wang Ye sat alone in the room, drinking his coffee in a leisurely manner.

He took out a pack of cigarettes and lit one up.

After a while, maybe about ten minutes later, Big Head Kong walked into the room.

He sat across Wang Ye with a serious look on his face. Wang Ye didn’t ask him what the result was, but just smiled and watched him.

After a moment of eye contact, Big Head Kong cracked a smile.

He stretched out his right hand, "Congratulations, Manager Wang, the big boss has agreed to sell you the shops on 1, 2, 3 Streets at this price!"

Wang Ye also reached out and shook his hand, laughing in response, "No, the congratulations should go to President Kong, for being able to sell so many shops at once. The new market is going to be buzzing soon."

"However, regarding the issue of waiving the management fee, the big boss has made a request. He hopes you can achieve an occupancy rate of over 80% on 1, 2, 3 Streets within a month! If you can do that, then there’s no problem. This condition is to be written into the contract!"

Wang Ye struck a hard bargain, so naturally, Big Head Kong and his team were not willing to capitulate easily.

Although they agreed to Wang Ye’s request, there had to be corresponding conditions.

As long as Wang Ye could meet their requirements and achieve an occupancy rate of over 80% on 1, 2, 3 Streets within a month, they would not lose out!

Because this would help New Sun Market attract popularity and serve as a form of advertising!

The value of this hidden advertising effect was extremely high...

As long as the popularity in these few streets rose, would they still have to worry about selling the rest of the shops?

Once all the shops were sold, wouldn’t the monthly management fees and logistics customs clearance fees start rolling in...

Wang Ye nodded without hesitation. Even if Big Head Kong didn’t mention it, he also wanted to sublet the shops as soon as possible.

Otherwise, even if the management fee was waived for the first two months, what about after the two months...

At that time, just the management fee would be 150,000 US dollars per month!

He didn’t have the means to raise that much money...

However, Wang Ye also added a condition, which was that his three streets had to be planned as a Footwear Special Zone!

In other words, in the New Sun Market, all streets other than 1, 2, 3 Streets are not allowed to sell shoes.

Of course, these three streets, in addition to selling shoes, cannot sell other types of products either.

Such large wholesale markets, especially new ones, are always planned.

It’s impossible for them to be messy with all types of products mixed together. Instead, they are run according to the type of product, designating fixed areas for operations.

Such as footwear zone, luggage zone, clothes zone, fur zone, jewelry zone, etc...

Footwear can also be considered a major category, so it’s not a problem to set aside three streets for it.

This was something Big Head Kong could decide on his own, so after slightly considering it, he agreed without hesitation.

He understood that Wang Ye must have a wide network of contacts in the footwear industry, which was normal and didn’t hurt the market in any way.

Seeing that Big Head Kong agreed to his conditions, Wang Ye immediately said, "Then... here’s to a successful partnership, let’s settle it this way!"

.........

Seeing that Wang Ye agreed so readily, Big Head Kong was overjoyed.

He immediately got up and instructed his secretary to prepare the contract.

Then he and Wang Ye discussed the details of the contract signing, which was a big project!

After all, it involved three hundred shops, and the related procedures were still quite tedious.

Wang Ye and he agreed that they would first pay a deposit of 20,000 US dollars today, and then Big Head Kong would start preparing the corresponding text contracts and such, and they would officially sign the contract three days later.

Big Head Kong also specifically proposed that a grand contract signing ceremony would be held at the New Market at that time!

Wang Ye understood his intentions, which was to create momentum.

To show the Chinese bosses who are unwilling to do business at the old market that the New Market is not unsellable!

This is beneficial to both parties, so Wang Ye naturally would not refuse.

He took out the money he had prepared, paid the deposit, and then left the Little Red Building under Big Head Kong’s farewell.

Back at his car in the parking lot, Wang Ye did not rush to start the car and leave.

Instead, he opened the car window, lit a cigarette, and zoned out for a while.

Even though he had bargained the price to the lowest, buying three hundred shops in three streets still cost him a total of 600,000 US dollars!

Almost all of the money earned from the study abroad agency had been used!

The remaining tens of thousands of US dollars still had to be used to start the phone card company.

Now, he was back to being "dirt poor"...

Moreover, the shops in the big market can’t be liquidated in a short time, it seems he needs to think of a way to raise some money again...

Gathering his emotions, he started the vehicle and drove towards the Alpha Hotel.

......

After arriving at the company, Wang Ye went around for a bit, chatted casually with Angelina in the large office area.

Then he went to Liu Jun’s office. He had something to discuss with Liu Jun.

"What! Have you lost your mind! You used all the money to buy shops in the New Sun Market?"

In the office, Liu Jun exclaimed in disbelief.

Wang Ye had just told him about spending 600,000 US dollars to buy shops on three streets in the New Sun Market.

Liu Jun himself didn’t believe in the prospects of the New Sun Market.

Because the old market was doing well, and because it had been in operation for so many years, it had already gained a good reputation.

Why would those Chinese bosses want to move to the new market? There’s no need to!

Business is like this, maybe it’s just a street apart, a road apart, but the popularity is worlds apart!

You can’t see that the business is booming on the side of the old market and assume that the new market can definitely do well.

It’s not necessarily true!

"Almost, I bargained for a while, and in the end, I took one shop for two thousand US dollars. I spent six hundred thousand." Wang Ye casually replied.

"Tsk tsk! You really dare. The price of the shop is not expensive, but buying so many at once, have you considered the issue of management fees?" Liu Jun continued sagely.

"Of course I have. All I need to do is to rent out all of the shops, right? The management fees are paid by the tenants, which is the rule." Wang Ye laughed.

Indeed, in the old market, not only are the management fees paid by the tenants, but the tenants also owe the shop owners a certain amount of rent each month.

After all, the shop belongs to the owner, you can’t just use it for free...

"So where are you going to find so many tenants?" Liu Jun was still puzzled.

If there are so many Chinese bosses who want to do business in the new market, why don’t they just buy a shop themselves?

Moreover, the reason why the price of the shops in the new market is so low is because nobody wants to go there!

It’s simple logic. Why hasn’t someone as smart as Wang Ye thought of this? Liu Jun wondered.

"Heh heh, it’s not as difficult as you think. By the way, is Xiao Hu in the company next door? I need his help to connect some dots on this." Wang Ye said mysteriously.
