Chapter 282: Lu Yiming’s criminal record?
Although she felt extremely shocked in her heart, Su Yunwei still carefully read the information that Li Qingmei collected for her.
The more Su Yunwei read, the more surprised she was. She couldn't even believe her eyes. The life experience of Lu Yiming described in the information was simply a legend. There was no need to waste words on any exaggerated rhetoric. Just the simplest description would be more than enough to be used as a textbook at Harvard Business School.
When Su Yunwei was carefully looking through the information in her hand, Li Qingmei looked around and found that there was no one around. Then she lowered her voice and whispered in her ear: "And there is one more thing. I guess only people in the circle know it. I didn't even dare to write it in the information."
Su Yunwei's mind moved, she raised her head and looked at Li Qingmei, and asked with a puzzled look, "What's the matter?"
Li Qingmei looked around again, then lowered her voice: "I heard that Wu Jinliang, the second largest shareholder of Jingwan Group, was wiped out because he offended him."
Su Yunwei was so frightened when she heard this that she dropped the documents in her hand onto the glass table. Her eyes widened with fear. She tried hard not to scream, but it was very difficult to hold it back.
"He's so young, but he dared to kill people? And he killed an entire family? Then why hasn't he been arrested?"
Li Qingmei said with emotion: "So this is the most amazing thing. He didn't kill the person himself."
Su Yunwei was immediately confused: "Didn't you say that he killed the whole family? How come it became that he didn't kill them?"
Li Qingmei then explained many of the details in detail: "Wu Jinliang was sentenced to death by the court, which is what he deserved. But his brother and son, one died on the streets of Nanyang, and the other was in a car accident. Do you think it was such a coincidence? But I heard that the deaths of these two people should be related to another Zhou family, because Wu Jinliang killed the heir of the Zhou family."
Su Yunwei was even more confused: "Why is the Zhou family here again? And according to what you said, Wu Jinliang was sentenced to death by the court, and his brother and son were sought by the Zhou family for killing the heir of the Zhou family. This has nothing to do with Lu Yiming."
Li Qingmei curled her lips and said, "How can it be unrelated? Wu Jinliang planned the kidnapping of Lu Yiming, but Wu Jianhao got away with it for no apparent reason. On the day he walked out of the court, he openly threatened to take revenge on Lu Yiming, and then he died a few days later. Before that, Lu Yiming had privately met with Zhou Youguang. Who would believe you if you said that this matter had nothing to do with him?"
Su Yun took a deep breath. Although there was no evidence, anyone with a little common sense would know that this was clearly Lu Yiming's attempt to root out the problem.
People who are cruel and ruthless yet remain untainted by blood are truly terrifying.
What’s more important is that Lu Yiming is only seventeen years old and still a high school student!
In front of her best friend, Su Yunwei couldn't help but complain quietly: "Are all the high school students in China so amazing now? Someone like him, even in a place like Wall Street, can be called a monster, right?"
Li Qingmei also felt the same way: "That's right, such a powerful person, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it at all."
Then Li Qingmei suddenly seemed to remember something and asked Su Yunwei: "By the way, why do you want to investigate him? This guy is obviously not easy to mess with. You don't want to attack him, do you?"
Su Yunwei just felt a headache at this moment. She held her forehead and said unhappily, "It's not me who wanted to attack him. Now he is targeting my good niece."
When Su Yunwei thought that Shi Qingxue was actually in love with such a monster, she felt a chill down her spine.
How could our naive Xiaoxue conquer a monster like Lu Yiming?
Li Qingmei was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and teased: "Then your niece is amazing. In fact, if she can really become a couple with Lu Yiming, wouldn't it be a good thing for your Su family? He is said to be worth more than one billion now, and most of his assets are cash, not much worse than your Su family. You know, this is just the result of his more than half a year! If he is given a few more years to grow, I dare not imagine..."
Su Yunwei showed a helpless look: "If he was a poor boy, it would be fine, at least our Su family can control him. It is precisely because he is too outstanding that I am worried that it will be a disaster for our Xiaoxue to be with him."
Li Qingmei thought about it and agreed with Su Yunwei's idea: "That's true, so what are you going to do now?"
Su Yunwei felt even more troubled than before: "I don't know. Let's take it one step at a time. I just hope he can change his mind sooner, and then everyone will be happy."
After returning to Su Yunjin's home, Su Yunwei's mood was still very complicated.
Lu Yiming's true identity was far beyond her expectations.
Ask yourself, even if you have the full support of your family, can you earn a billion in a few months?
In fact, Su Yunwei knew the answer very well. She definitely couldn't do it by herself. She even felt that few people in the world could do it.
Ten billion, not ten dollars. Even if you rob a bank, you can't steal so much. Just to transport it, you need a big truck, which weighs more than ten tons and people can't move it at all.
In Su Yunwei's opinion, it is almost impossible for an ordinary person to earn 100,000 yuan in half a year starting from scratch, and 1 billion yuan is simply a fantasy.
However, Lu Yiming did it, and with almost no effort, which is terrifying.
Faced with such a monster, Su Yunwei didn't know how to comment on him.
Just as he was lost in thought, Su Yunjin returned home from work and found Su Yunwei sitting on the sofa in a daze. She immediately came over and asked, "Weiwei, what are you doing sitting here? You haven't been seen since early in the morning. Where have you been? You just came back now."
Su Yunwei calmed down and forced a smile, saying, "I went to see an old classmate, a good friend who studied abroad with me in the United States."
“Oh, I see.”
Su Yunjin certainly had nothing to worry about Su Yunwei, her smart and capable sister. She changed her shoes, put away her bag, and sat on the sofa to discuss the management issues of Shijinji with Su Yunwei.
After receiving Lu Yiming's plan, Su Yunjin has been thinking about it, mainly because the future prospects pointed out by Lu Yiming in it are too tempting.
If this business is done well, it is conservatively estimated that we can earn at least 2 billion every year!
In fact, twenty years later, a company called Kayou did this. It has been deeply involved in the card industry for twenty years and obtained the genuine authorization of cards of well-known IPs such as Ultraman, Seer, Transformers, Ye Luoli, Naruto, Douluo Dalu, Harry Potter, and Wu Liuqi.
By 2019, it had obtained the authorizations for more than 70% of popular domestic and international animation IPs, had more than 100 core distributors across the country, and its products were sold in more than 100,000 terminal stores. A closed loop has been formed from copyright to products to channels, and all of this has been transformed into Kayou's unique core competitiveness.
At the same time, through offline activities organized by the company, the other party also promoted the further popularity of card culture.
By September 2021, Kayou had won the favor of Sequoia Capital and its valuation reached US$1 billion.
From this we can see that there is actually a big business hidden in the small cards.
The development route that Lu Yiming planned for Shi Jinji partially imitated Kayou's operating model.
With this premise, Su Yunjin didn't have much obsession with Lu Yiming's identity. She didn't notice where Lu Yiming had set up traps. For her, this cooperation could go on. Moreover, it could help Shijinji grow bigger and stronger.
Su Yunjin has been thinking about this project and has been thinking about how to implement it: "The business plan proposed by Lu Yiming mainly focuses on convenience foods and does not involve much in candy. I think this is an issue we must consider."
Su Yunwei thought about it and immediately gave her professional advice: "I think we can sell the hard bonbon and chocolate businesses in a package. They can probably be sold for about 150 million. You can leave it to me. I can help the company negotiate with Xu Fuji and Ferrero and try to get a good price."
Su Yunjin nodded, looking pleased. "Okay. Since the products in this business plan are relatively simple, if Shi Jinji expands its business too much, I'm afraid I won't be able to manage it. Anyway, selling candies won't make any money anytime soon, so why not sell them for cash and increase the company's capital reserves?"
Su Yun nodded slightly: "I think so too. After getting rid of the burden, the company can move forward lightly and achieve rapid transformation."
Suddenly, Su Yunjin had an idea and said, "No, I think there is something wrong here. Since the company's main business in the future is also to draw cards, why not just sell the cards directly? Why sell them with snacks? Isn't that redundant?"
"this……"
This question stumped Su Yunwei.
"Why don't we ask Lu Yiming? After all, he was the one who made this plan."
Su Yunjin glanced at her and jokingly said, "Aren't you always unhappy with him?"
Su Yunwei recalled the news she got from Li Qingmei and said with a wry smile, "Well, let's put it this way. We are talking about business now, not personal emotional issues."
At the same time, Baiyun No. 1 Middle School campus.
In the classroom, Lu Yiming was accompanying Shi Qingxue to clean the room.
After taking out the trash and locking the doors and windows, the two walked towards the school gate shoulder to shoulder.
"It's the weekend again starting tomorrow, how is it? Is your dad coming to pick you up later?"
Shi Qingxue covered her mouth and chuckled, "Yes, now my mom and aunt are busy with Shijinji's affairs all day long, while my dad is just doing housework at home all day long, learning to cook and so on. I feel so weird."
Lu Yiming smiled and joked, "This is great, the whole family is together, maybe your dad is just tired and wants to have a good rest. Middle-aged men are like this, you have to be considerate of him, make a few times more wolfberry tea, your dad will definitely like it."
Shi Qingxue tilted her head and asked with a big question mark: "Is wolfberry tea really that delicious?"
"In short, you're always right to listen to me. Goji berries are very nutritious."
If Shi Caijiang heard what Lu Yiming said, he would probably be so angry that he would want to hit someone. If it weren't for Lu Yiming's threat, how could he have fallen to the point of becoming a househusband?
It’s a pity that it’s no use regretting now. If he doesn’t want to go to jail, he can only follow Lu Yiming’s instructions.
The two walked out while chatting. Just as they reached the school gate, Lu Yiming unexpectedly received a call from Su Yunjin.
"Hello, good afternoon, Auntie."
Su Yunjin did not beat around the bush with Lu Yiming and asked directly: "Lu Yiming, let me ask you a question. Since the core of your plan is to draw cards, why don't we sell the cards directly, but put them in instant noodles?"
Lu Yiming was stunned for a moment. If the person in front of him wasn't his mother-in-law, he would definitely complain a few words first.
But for Shi Qingxue's sake, he held back, and after organizing his words a little, he patiently explained the reason to Su Yunjin: "Selling cards directly is definitely not an option. This is mainly based on the current national conditions in our country. Most urban families have limited incomes, and the pocket money given to children is even less, probably only one or two yuan. For children, if they use their pocket money to buy cards, they won't be able to eat snacks, which will put them in a dilemma. At that time, they will most likely choose to eat instead of cards."
Children are often greedy. Toys and snacks are like fish and bear's paw for them, and you can't have both.
Therefore, an excellent product often has to meet the multiple needs of users at the same time.
It's just like many foreign-funded cars sold in China. They have reduced their energy consumption, engine, and braking system, but put a lot of effort into the interior decoration, creating various so-called high-end versions, and then let Chinese users pay a premium to buy them.
The fundamental reason is that most domestic car users do not understand cars at all. In addition to the convenience of travel, their main purpose of buying a car is for face.
After discovering this, foreign-funded car companies immediately did whatever they could to make money, and their sales strategies were very targeted.
The same is true for Lu Yiming's card drawing at this time. Since the main target customers of the product are children, he must formulate a sales strategy based on their consumption capacity and consumption needs.
Faced with Lu Yiming's analysis, Su Yunjin thought about it and found that it was indeed the case.
She couldn't help but praise him, "You actually thought of these details, that's great. Why are the 108 heroes of the Water Margin printed on the cards, and why are the numbers of each type of card different? What's the reason for this?"
Lu Yiming smiled and asked back: "I wonder if you have ever had this feeling, that is, a famous brand of lipstick has released a series, and you bought one of them, would you also want to get the other colors?"
Su Yunjin answered without thinking: "Of course."
Lu Yiming then said, "This card is based on the same principle. In psychology, everyone has a 'collecting habit'. In layman's terms, everyone has the need to show off. If I have something you don't, and you have it, then I have more than you, so I feel superior to you. The Water Margin card is the same. After you buy a pack and get a card, do you also want to get the rest of the cards? This can stimulate users to continue to buy."
"Also, the number of cards is different, which means the difficulty of collecting is also different. According to the theory of showing off, the harder it is to collect, the greater the sense of accomplishment of the person who succeeds. If there is only one card, then the price of this card will be higher than gold!"
Su Yunjin was not stupid, she just didn't understand Lu Yiming's intention for a moment. Now that Lu Yiming pointed it out directly, she was immediately amazed.
What kind of business is Lu Yiming playing with? It's clearly human nature!
