Chapter 103 Falling short of success
"Okay, I'll wait for you at the company."
After making an appointment with Kim Jong Kook, Huang Xu hung up the phone.
However, after hanging up the phone, he was still a little surprised. He didn't expect that the two of them would come to the company to find him today.
Because his original intention was just to ask them to come to him when they were free in the next few days, but after hearing Huang Xu's agreement, Kim Jong Kook on the other end of the phone immediately said that they would come to see Huang Xu today.
This made Huang Xu feel a little surprised.
After all, in Huang Xu's mind, these two people should be quite busy.
Not to mention their respective regular variety shows, which already take up a lot of their time every week.
And in addition to regular variety shows, they should also have a lot of celebration schedules at this end of the year.
How can you have so much free time?
Although Huang Xu was quite surprised, he did not delve into it further as he had a lot of things to deal with now.
But the most important thing now is that the funds that have just been transferred into the company account need to be spent as soon as possible.
If money is just kept in an account, it will not make money, but will continue to depreciate over time.
Only by spending and investing can your wealth increase in value.
Although there is a chance of investment failure!
But who can blame Huang Xu for having a business that is sure to make money, namely, renting out houses?
So he went straight to his uncle Huang Wenfu who was busy all the time. Seeing how busy he was, Huang Xu couldn't help but feel that it was a wise move for him to pull his uncle in.
After all, if he wasn't holding the reins here, he would be the one busy here now.
After finally being able to catch his breath, Huang Xu hurried forward to ask.
"Uncle, how much money do we have in our account now?"
"How much is it? Wait a minute and let me see."
Although Huang Wenfu didn't know why Huang Xu asked about the account balance, he quickly found the data submitted by the finance department yesterday.
"There is still over 2 billion in the account, but part of this money will be paid to domestic companies in the next few days."
"How much can we move now?"
"You can move, what do you want to do?"
Huang Wenfu couldn't help but become alert after hearing Huang Xu's question.
Although their company is now developing well and has sufficient funds, they cannot move the money now.
According to the plan he and Huang Xu had discussed earlier, the money would be gradually transferred into the country.
This is also one of the reasons why he supports Huang Xu so much.
After all, he and Huang Xu are foreigners, and they will have to return to their roots in the future.
Therefore, after hearing Huang Xu's question, he became so alert, fearing that he would suddenly have some other ideas that would affect the company's development.
After all, the company's development plan has been decided. As long as they proceed step by step, when they return to China in a few years, they can be said to have returned home in glory.
Huang Xu looked at his uncle's nervous expression and couldn't help but feel a little nervous as well.
Even though he was the boss of the company, he couldn't stop him from doing anything he really wanted to do.
However, their relationship is that of uncle and nephew, so he cannot force them to act according to his own ideas.
Otherwise he couldn't convince himself, but don't forget that his brother, who is also his father, can convince himself physically.
So he asked his uncle carefully.
"Uncle, do you know any fully rented houses here?"
"I know for sure that it's a full rental house. And the house you're renovating now, isn't it for full rental use?"
"Yeah, then you said that it's useless to keep this money in our account. Can we use it to buy a house to rent out?"
“Buy a house to rent out??”
Huang Wenfu showed a questioning look on his face at this time. He wanted to see if Huang Xu's brain was broken at this moment, why did he suddenly come up with such an idea.
Especially since the company is doing well now, why do we need to do all this?
Seeing his uncle's questioning expression, Huang Xu quickly began to explain.
In the following time, he explained to him in detail his previous house-buying methods.
Just when Huang Xu was explaining the rules of renting a house to his uncle, Kim Jong Kook, who had just hung up the phone, drove hurriedly to pick up Ha Dongxun to meet Huang Xu.
It’s not his fault that he is so anxious, but he is worried that Huang Xu will change his mind. He wants to take advantage of the current time to quickly finalize the matter.
Because this matter is quite important to him.
For artists in South Korea, the competition is very fierce because there are so many people working in the Korean entertainment industry. No one can guarantee how long they will be popular or how long they can stay in the industry.
So they have a common idea, or habit, that is, when they have money, they will make various investments.
The most common ones are investments in various stocks or luxury goods.
The second is to open your own store or even create your own brand.
This habit is not only found in Korea. In Huang Xu's hometown, there are actually quite a few celebrities who will invest after making money.
To put it bluntly, it is to prevent oneself from becoming outdated and to have an income to guarantee the rest of life. It is just that the competition in Korea is more intense and investment behavior is more common.
Especially Kim Jong Kook, his sense of crisis about the future is stronger than that of ordinary artists.
At the peak of his treble winning period, he thought he would continue to be brilliant and even reach the level of his predecessors.
But no one expected that at the peak of his career, he received a notice to enlist in the army, which ruined his singing career.
When he came out again, the Korean entertainment industry had undergone tremendous changes.
Even in the first six months after his debut, he would not have had a job if Yoo Jae-suk hadn't given him a hand and asked him to appear on variety shows with him.
It is precisely because of this that he cherishes his current job so much and starts to save money consciously.
However, according to his previous plan, he would not invest in these activities. After all, in his opinion, investment is far inferior to bank deposits and insurance.
It's just that things are a little different now.
Although this time he is also investing in a restaurant, it is no different from other people in the circle.
But this time, Huang Xu's plan was too tempting for him.
The store was ready-made, and he didn't need to inject much capital. He just needed to rely on his fame and influence.
And there is also Huang Xu, a professional in the hotel industry.
In his opinion, the chance of failure of this investment is relatively small, and even if it fails, there will not be much financial loss.
But if he succeeds, then even if he is no longer in the entertainment industry, he can still rely on this restaurant to live the rest of his life without worries about food and clothing.
This is why he cares so much.
So after hanging up Huang Xu's phone, he drove directly to Ha Dongxun's house, took Ha Dongxun, who was still resting, and came to Huang Xu.
When they arrived, Huang Xu was still explaining the operation and benefits of full house rental to his uncle.
As a result, when I was halfway through the conversation, the company's receptionist knocked on the door.
"Mr. Huang, your friend is here to see you and is waiting for you in the meeting room."
"friend?"
Huang Xu looked at the front desk with some confusion and couldn't help but ask questions.
He doesn't have many friends here, so why would someone come to him, and come to his company at all?
Perhaps seeing Huang Xu's confusion, the receptionist continued to explain:
"It's Kim Jong Kook and Haha!"
"Oh, I see. Please ask them to wait for a moment. I will come over when I am done."
After being reminded by the front desk, Huang Xu finally remembered them.
However, Huang Xu planned to let them wait for a while. After all, for him, joining their music restaurant bar plan was actually an unintentional act, and he did not care too much about how it would develop in the end.
Now his main focus is still on his franchise stores and fully rented properties.
Now, with only the first batch of 20 stores, we already have a total of 2.5 billion in working capital, which is more than 13 million.
Even if a large portion of the funds are transferred to domestic companies, the amount that remains is not a small amount.
It's such a waste to put this money in the company account.
It is better to take advantage of the good market conditions in recent years and make money quickly.
In a few years, he won't have this opportunity anymore.
Therefore, now he is only thinking about how to quickly convince his uncle to agree to let him use his idle funds to rent a house.
At this time, Huang Wenfu suddenly stopped the receptionist who was about to leave and said to Huang Xu:
"Xiao Xu, go and greet your friend first. I'll think about what you just said and give you an answer."
After saying that, he sent Huang Xu out of his office without saying anything.
After seeing Huang Xu off, Huang Wenfu took a long breath and came out of his previous emotions.
If the receptionist had not suddenly appeared and interrupted them, he would have been convinced by Huang Xu's words and agreed with his idea on the spot.
After all, the pie Huang Xu painted for him was too big and very practical, so he was dazzled by the huge profits.
Fortunately, the sudden appearance of the front desk clerk calmed him down and allowed him to quietly think about the pros and cons of the matter.
Huang Xu felt regretful after being sent out by his uncle. He was obviously about to convince the other party. As long as he persisted a little longer, he believed that his uncle would agree to his request. Unfortunately, he was interrupted.
But he was not discouraged. After all, as long as he was interested, things would be easier.
So he put away his regret and invited the two people who were waiting in the lounge to his office.
"How come you two brothers are here so soon? Didn't you say there's no rush for this matter?"
Three thousand words are here, and six thousand words were updated today.
I followed the advice of my bosses and started a business to make money.
Thanks to book friends Li TaeU and YouShiJingZi for their monthly ticket support, thank you!
After a few days of adjustment, I plan to take a week off next week and concentrate on writing at home to repay the kindness of all the bosses!
