Chapter 73
“Mr. Su, please give me more advice in the future.”After signing the contract, Wang Tao breathed a sigh of relief. He finally solved the most important funding problem at the moment, so he would not be unable to pay the employees.
“It’s not really about giving advice, but I do have some small suggestions.”
It was originally a polite remark, but Wang Tao didn’t expect Su Chengyang to really want to”give advice”, and he couldn’t help but feel curious.
“Mr. Su, please speak”
“That’s right. I wonder if Dajiang can change its mindset and transform from a model aircraft company to a manufacturer that provides commercial flight control.”
“Commercial flight control manufacturer?”
Wang Tao was a little confused.
“Yes.” Su Chengyang nodded, using his ability to create something out of nothing.
“It’s like this, I have a friend in Europe, they are a company that makes multi-axis flight control systems, they are said to have very few products, and they sell thousands of flight control systems every month.”
Thousands of sets?”
Wang Tao’s face was surprised.
You know, up to now, Dajiang has sold less than 100 helicopter model aircraft control systems.
“However, the company’s product strategy is DIY. Users must find their own components and download the code. As you know, there are many components, which leads to compatibility issues. The stability and reliability of the product are much lower. I wonder if Dajiang can apply the technology of helicopter flight control systems to multi-axis aircraft.”
“Then it will move closer to the commercial field, such as drones, which are equipped with camera video modules, can easily shoot videos and be used in filming movies, or in some ravine exploration, aerial photography, surveying and mapping and other application scenarios.”
“Another example is the research on large-scale agricultural flying wing systems for plant protection, replacing manual spraying of pesticides, etc.”
“It can also be applied to police cases, such as police crackdowns, tracking and detecting criminal dens, transmitting images from high altitudes, etc. I think these application scenarios are more promising and have a broader market than helicopter flight control systems.”
Wang Tao had already been attracted by what Su Chengyang said, as if he had opened a window and seen a wider world.
Huh~~
Taking a deep breath, Wang Tao suppressed the shock in his heart, looked at Su Chengyang, and said seriously:”Mr. Su, you are a wake-up call. Before, we were still wondering what the future of Dajiang should be. Now your words have opened my eyes, which is worth a lot of money.”
“I am very glad that I accepted your investment, otherwise I would have missed the opportunity to change the fate of Dajiang.”
“Ha ha~~”
Su Chengyang laughed and looked at Wang Tao with a smile:”Mr. Wang, you are too polite. These are just a few of my thoughts.”
“Besides, we are family now, no need to be so polite”
“Haha, yes, we are one family now.”
Wang Tao also laughed, and Li Zexiang beside him also smiled brightly. After some politeness,
Wang Tao suddenly said;”President Su, I would like to invite you to serve as the company’s strategic consultant.”
“Strategic advisor?” Su Chengyang raised his eyebrows.
“Um~~”Wang Tao nodded and said,”It’s just to give us some advice, just like what I just said, so that we can avoid taking detours.”
“So that’s it…That’s fine.”Su Chengyang thought about it. His strengths are vision and understanding of future world changes. He may not be good at doing things, but he can occasionally give suggestions and ideas.
Seeing that Su Chengyang agreed to serve as the company’s strategic development consultant, Wang Tao was happy, and the smile on his face became brighter.
After signing the contract, Su Chengyang chatted with Wang Tao and Li Zexiang while there was still time. He briefly talked about some of his ideas, such as drone delivery and security facility applications. For things like flying cars, Su Chengyang felt that they were too powerful. The most urgent task was to delve deeper into the field of drones.
Some of the ideas proposed by Su Chengyang made Wang Tao and Li Zexiang sigh that Su Chengyang’s vision was amazing.
“No wonder he can become a Silicon Valley investment tycoon at such a young age. His vision is truly unmatched by ordinary people.’ ˇ` ˇ”
After watching Su Chengyang get into the car and leave, Wang Tao, who was standing at the first floor entrance, couldn’t help but sigh.
Li Zexiang on the side nodded, looked at the disappearing car with deep eyes, and agreed:”Mr. Su’s vision is indeed very sharp, and he can see far enough.”
After watching until the taillights of the car disappeared, Wang Tao retracted his gaze, and his face changed from the sad expression a few days ago. He said in high spirits:”I hope that when we meet again next time, we can already come up with a mature multi-axis aircraft solution.”
Li Zexiang smiled, and the two turned back to the company.
Here.
Sitting in the business car to the airport, Su Chengyang was in a good mood.
He invested in another unicorn.
His net worth can be increased by at least billions of US dollars, and now, under his indoctrination, Dajiang will definitely develop a multi-axis flight control system and drones earlier than in the previous life. By then, the company’s scale and market value will definitely be stronger than the original history.
And he only spent 20 million US dollars and some words, and he can get dozens or even hundreds of times the reward, and it’s still US dollars, so he is naturally happy….
Pengcheng, Baoan International Airport.
Seeing Father Su coming out of the reception hall, Su Chengyang hurried over to greet him.
“Dad.”
Su Jianliang also saw his son at this time, and walked over with a smile,”How long have you been waiting?”
After handing the luggage to Liao Haidong and the others, he heard his father’s question and replied,”It wasn’t long, about ten minutes.”
Su Jianliang nodded and said,”Is what you said on the phone before really as good as you said?”
“Haha, Dad, you will know when you go and see it.”Su Chengyang said with a smile.
Su Jianliang heard it and felt that his son was right. It was not that good. You would know it when you went and saw it.
Old Man Su came here not alone this time. He also brought a bodyguard, and the sexy secretary also came with him. Su Chengyang just took a look and then retracted his gaze. There were some things that he didn’t need to remind him. Old Man Su also knew the limit.
Besides, if there was really something going on between the two of them, it would have happened long ago.
The group left the airport in two business cars and headed towards Houhai.
After driving for about twenty minutes, they arrived at Houhai.
The two got out of the car, walked slowly forward on the muddy road, and then stood on a small mound that was already covered with grass.
“Is this the place you were talking about?”
“Hmm~~ It’s here.”
Su Chengyang raised his hand and pointed to the faintly visible place across the sea and said:”That’s the Xiangjiang River”
“What is that place for?”
Father Su pointed to a place, and Su Chengyang looked at it and said,”That is the Pengcheng Bay Port, which connects to the Xiangjiang River.”
“In addition, the small lake in front of us is said to be built into a wetland park according to municipal planning.”
“Moreover, this place is located in the middle of Nanshan District, which is a rare scenic spot in Pengcheng area, with a wide view of the sea. It is not far from the core area of Futian.”
“According to what I have learned in the past two days, the Pengcheng Municipal Government plans to vigorously develop Nanshan District and build it into a high-tech center.”
“This piece of land is really good.
Father Su agreed with his son’s vision.
“But, you can see this land, but can’t the real estate developers in Pengcheng see it?”
“It would be difficult to seize this piece of land, right?”
Su Chengyang nodded and said,”It is definitely difficult, but there are not many companies that are qualified to take it.”
“According to my people, there is about 500 to 600 acres of land in the southern area, which will be publicly auctioned in June or July this year. I think it is a good opportunity, and I will try to bid for it.”
Old man Su looked at the place his son mentioned. The location was okay, but he was more optimistic about the large open space in front of him. After all, it was next to the so-called wetland park, with unbeatable scenery and better vision.
“What about these plots of land? When will they be auctioned?”
Su Chengyang shrugged:”I’m not sure about that. You have to find out for yourself.”
“Then why did you ask me to come here?” Old Man Su was dissatisfied.
Su Chengyang rolled his eyes:”Dad, if I have found out everything, why do I need you to come here? I can buy a real estate company or set up a real estate company by myself, so why would I wait for you to come?”
Old Man Su’s mouth twitched.
This unfilial son…
After returning to the hotel, the two talked about entering the Magic City. Father Su complained that the stall was too big, and there were more than 4 billion left in the account, so it was impossible to acquire land in Pengcheng and Magic City at the same time.
He didn’t want to miss the good land, and he didn’t want to increase the debt ratio too much.
Borrowing from the bank means that after acquiring the land, it will start development as soon as possible, and then sell the houses immediately. Such a high turnover is not what Su Chengyang wants.
This model can make money, but the floating profit and net profit of 15% are already very impressive.
However, in the future, the housing prices in Pengcheng and Magic City will increase several times, so it will be a bit disadvantageous to sell them immediately after they are built.
Therefore, Su Chengyang proposed not to borrow from the bank and learn from the development experience of Xiangjiang Real Estate Company.
Low debt ratio, less bank loans, a long development cycle of a real estate project, seemingly a disadvantage, but in fact it is a way to make money.
Take Hutchison Whampoa, a real estate company under Li Chaoren, which acquired a piece of land in the Nan’an District of Yucheng. The area is not large. It acquired the land in the early 2000s, but it has been dragging on and not developing it.
Until ten years later.
The housing prices in Chongqing skyrocketed, so he built the house and sold it. The price he paid for the land was only more than 1,000 yuan, but the house he built was sold for as much as 10 million to 30 million yuan.
This was still the case with the government’s price limit, otherwise, it could be sold for 20,000 or 30,000 yuan.
There are many similar cases like this in the mainland under Li Jiacheng’s Hutchison Whampoa.
To put it bluntly, it is to hoard land, and then wait for a few years until the housing prices double or even double, and then develop it.
To take this route, you must have sufficient cash flow and low debt.
“¨‖ ¨‖ In this way, I will inject another 15 billion into Yucheng Group.”
“Together with the funds in the existing account of Yucheng Group, it is enough to acquire several plots of land in Pengcheng Houhai and Shanghai!”
Su Chengyang thought carefully and decided to take out 15 billion.
Anyway, there are more than 90 billion in the account, and taking out 15 billion for Su Lao will not affect his strategic planning.
Hearing that his son is willing to take out 15 billion and invest in Yucheng Group, Su Lao was not only excited, but also immune to how much money his son has.
“That’s enough. With such a large amount of money, we can still buy some land even if the land prices in Magic City and Pengcheng are very expensive.”
Old Man Su said happily, without any embarrassment at all. I don’t know if it’s because he is too thick-skinned. Anyway, in Su Chengyang’s opinion, he is becoming more and more shameless.
“By the way, what are you doing in Hong Kong?”
After talking about the business, Father Su was concerned about his son.
“Go see someone”
“Who are you meeting?” Father Su asked curiously.
“Does Stephen Chow know?”
“That celebrity?”
“Um~~”
“Why are you going to see him?” Old Man Su curled his lips.
Su Chengyang patiently explained:”The film and television company has a project and wants to invite him to be the director. Many people can’t invite him, so I plan to go and see him in person.”
“You, why are you setting up a film and entertainment company? That thing is just like gambling. You can only make a few bucks. You might as well concentrate on the real estate business with me.”
Su Chengyang shook his head and said,”I am not interested in real estate.”
“All right~~”Father Su shrugged and said no more.
“By the way, Dad, I think we can start construction on those commercial shopping centers and office building projects in Jiangbeizui, Yucheng.”
Father Su looked at him in surprise and said,”Didn’t you say before that we would wait a few years before developing them? Why did you suddenly change your mind?”
“I thought about it. Commercial complexes and office buildings are different from residential buildings. We are not selling them after we build them. We rent them anyway.”
“Rather than waiting for labor and material costs to rise,”
“I think it’s better to build it while the prices of labor and building materials are low!”
“It can also save some money, and after the repair, it can also recover some funds.”
“There is no rush for this. Let’s wait until the bidding is launched and several architectural design companies come up with plans.”
Old Man Su thought for a while and said.
After all, this is the first commercial project of Yucheng Group, so we have to be cautious.
Su Chengyang thought about it and agreed with what Old Man Su said. This thing can’t be rushed…….
The next day, after saying goodbye to Old Man Su, Su Chengyang took Liao Haidong, Fang Jinwu, and Lin Haishen on a train from Pengcheng to Kowloon, Hong Kong.
It took only 20 minutes to get to Kowloon, Hong Kong. After getting off the train and leaving the train station, they saw many people holding signs, as if they were waiting to pick someone up.
Su Chengyang looked around and then walked towards a person.
The person saw Su Chengyang walking towards him, looked at the photo in his hand, and greeted him with a smile:”Hello, Mr. Su, welcome to Hong Kong, I am Li Yunhui from ICBC, nice to meet you.”
“Hello, President Li.” Su Chengyang smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with the other party.
Su Chengyang’s hundreds of billions of assets, more than 20 billion of which are in the ICBC account, in this era, is definitely a super big customer. Therefore, when he learned that Su Chengyang was coming to Hong Kong, Li Yunhui, the vice president of the Hong Kong ICBC, came to greet him in person.
“Mr. Su, please!” After some polite words, Li Yunhui invited Su Chengyang and others to get in the car.
It was a large seven-seater commercial vehicle.
