Chapter 2765 Friends Gathering
"Hahahaha... I'm laughing so hard!"
"Damn! So awesome!"
"Look, Archie, tsk tsk, Wang Xiaoxin is getting more and more beautiful, my goddess!"
"..."
In the living room of Xiaoyao Martial Arts School, He Hao was smiling from ear to ear.
Among the dozen or so people watching TV here, apart from the sound on the TV, he was the only one who heard his voice.
Xiao Qi, He Hao, and Yang Xues, plus a group of nannies, were all sitting in the spacious living room.
This large tatami-like room allows you to watch TV comfortably whether you are sitting, lying down or leaning on it.
It's just that not many people are watching TV seriously now, that is, their three good friends and their wives are watching the Japanese aunts and children playing sports, and talking about some topics between women.
Among the three friends, Xiao Qi is the most taciturn. Yang Xue is very tactful in dealing with people because of his business. As for Master He, he himself is a person with jumping and lively thinking. If I use a word that will become popular in the future,
To describe it, the word "funny" is most appropriate.
But He Hao is definitely not the kind of person who is annoying. On the contrary, he has a good heart, which is why he has such a beautiful Korean wife.
No, his wife was pregnant with her second child again, which made Su Zi feel envious and jealous, and even asked Mrs. He what her secret was.
Lu Qin doesn't get along well with others, but Su Zi goes to Xiaoyao Martial Arts School every two days, and Yu Yunxiu is even more so. She has no other relatives in China, so as long as she goes to her Korean restaurant, she usually
I come here every day. I want to read a book.
Although Lu Qin didn't talk much to them, they were the ones doing most of the talking, but over time they became good friends. A girl like Lu Qin, who was cold-faced and warm-hearted, naturally became close to them much more casually.
"Hey, Archie. Little Lark, you must have made a lot of money from this online Spring Festival Gala, right?" After seeing a paragraph, He Hao touched Xiao Qi's arm and asked in a low voice.
Little Lark is Shen Wuyan’s nickname. As a graduate of Yuanyin Middle School, He Hao certainly knows about this little beauty who is one of the top three beauties of Yuanyin Middle School. He knows that she is in charge of Little Bird Network, and he also knows that she has already
Xiao Qi gave birth to a daughter.
"If you look at these online Spring Festival Galas alone, we should have lost more than 8,000 yuan." Xiao Qidao. "But judging from the total number of Xiaoniao TV installations and the audience's praise, we have definitely made a profit.
.”
"I also watched it on the Internet. These online Spring Festival Galas on Xiaoniao.com were ranked in the top ten of all Spring Festival Galas. This is an amazing achievement!" Yang Xue interjected, "Du, Dongfang, Jinwei, etc.
I’m waiting for Satellite TV’s Spring Festival Gala, but it can’t compare to our Xiaoniao.com.”
Based on yesterday's data from Xiaoniao.com, the number of installations and subscriptions to Xiaoniao TV has exceeded 8 million households, which is equivalent to the number of viewers of an ordinary provincial TV station.
Of course, most of the credit goes not just to the Spring Festival Gala, but to the fact that there are so many wonderful programs on weekdays that everyone really likes.
But there is no doubt that there are many people who install it specifically for the online Spring Festival Gala during this period of the Spring Festival. In other words, because the online Spring Festival Gala thinks that the TV programs of Xiaoniao.com are very exciting, many people install Xiaoniao TV.
"That's right, if you don't see who is taking action, it is a big name and a foreign star. How can it not be popular?" He Hao said and laughed again, "Archie. To be honest, Kasha and Anna
Are these two girls your women too? Look at their figures, their style, they are perfect goddesses!"
"You have so many goddesses." Xiao Qi looked at him helplessly. "They are Taylor's friends. Didn't you meet Taylor last time you went to the United States? Do you think it is Taylor's kind of character? If I put her two
My best friends are all on the bed, how can I still sit here safe and sound?"
He Hao and Yu Yunxiu traveled to the United States some time ago and went to Tang Mingxiang's manor, where they happened to meet little Taylor.
I heard that He Hao was one of Xiao Qi's best friends. Little Taylor was naturally very enthusiastic and even accompanied the couple to play outside for a day, which made He Hao quite admire the little foreign horse.
But when he came back, he also said that after a few days of contact, he found that Taylor's character was a bit stronger, and only Xiao Qi could tolerate her.
"Ha ha!"
He Hao nodded with insight, expressing his agreement with Xiao Qi's words.
The three of them were watching TV, eating barbecue and drinking drinks, which was befitting their age of 22 or 3.
The barbecue is all served from Master He's Korean restaurant. Although the taste is not as good as Fairy Canteen, this rich Korean flavor still tastes good.
"The electronic technology exhibition in the past two years has been really good." Yang Xue said, "As early as when we were studying, could we have imagined that there would be such a convenient network and such a convenient smartphone? Basically, as long as we have
You can handle all the things in your life with just one mobile phone, which is very in line with the preferences of modern young people."
"This is not necessarily good." He Hao said with a smile, "If e-commerce develops well, what about the physical business? Now some people are saying that online commerce is a huge blow to the real economy! If it weren't for the three
In five years, more than half of the physical stores will close down! Fortunately, our Laoba Road is a tourist street, otherwise we would have to worry."
When He Hao said this, he didn't look worried at all.
He has 100 storefronts on Lao Ba Road, and Yang Xue has 50 stores less. These stores bring him hundreds of millions in income every year, so he doesn't have to worry about money at all.
And the most important thing is that Lao Ba Road has become one of the most important tourist destinations in the world. No matter how much you like online shopping, you still have the need to play and travel. You can't say that you still buy everywhere when traveling.
Food and clothing on the Internet?
Xiao Qi knew that the things He Hao said would really happen in the future. The low cost of online commerce would have a huge impact on the high cost of physical stores, so business in the future would not be so easy.
But this cannot be stopped by human power, because this is the trend of social development. Anyone who wants to block the progress of society will definitely be eliminated by society.
In fact, it is not that complicated to achieve the coexistence of online commerce and physical stores. In this regard, the United States does have good experience, but it is a pity that China cannot learn from it for the time being.
This experience is that it has directly spawned several large-scale semi-monopoly organizations in the industry, allowing them to use their strong cost advantages to offset the high costs of reducing physical stores, thereby passing more profits to users.
Walmart's retail prices in the United States are much cheaper than Amazon's, and this is the reason.
Of course, there is only one Wal-Mart in the world, and it is not easy to learn from them thoroughly. Moreover, China's national conditions are different from those of the United States. Many things still need to be slowly discussed and improved before we can gradually
Make progress.
There are some things that Xiao Qi has to say and propose now, but it would be unflattering.
Only when this situation occurs and everyone sees the huge risks, can Xiao Qi put forward some suggestions that will be accepted by the people above.
"You said that the economy will decline because of online commerce, but that's just the retail industry. The overall economic situation is not that exaggerated." Yang Xue disagreed with He Hao's point of view, "For example, you said that our antique industry has experienced a decline from the past two years to now.
, although he has been suppressed many times, he can recover quickly every time. The jade and jade that Archie bought in the past two years have increased three times in price, which is no slower than making money from doing business!"
"Who said it wasn't?" He Hao became furious when he mentioned this, "I just sold a piece of mutton-fat jade as big as a child's palm, and you actually charged me more than 200 million, even though you said it was only more than 150 million in February last year.
Damn it, you are too dark!"
Xiao Qi smiled brightly and said, "Master He, Ah Xue did not charge you a high price. This is the cost price he asked someone to polish it... You are so rich, you are embarrassed to let your friends pay for it, right?"
"Humph, it's really a difficult business to get into when it comes to antiques." He Hao didn't have much exposure to antique culture. He shrugged and said, "For example, a painting, which is as big as a dressing mirror, can actually do it."
Sold for 100 million, 200 million, 500 million... Tsk tsk, it's not that expensive if it's covered with gold and diamonds like this, right? With everyone hyping each other up, the person who takes over will suffer a loss!"
Yang Xue patted him on the shoulder, "Master He, you have finally revealed the true meaning of the antique business! It's just a group of collectors raising prices for each other, and then selling them to wealthy people who don't know how to do it... Isn't that right?
, at an auction in Nanwan last month, a calligraphy and painting work by Bada Shanren rose to more than 5,000 yuan. You must know that it was only more than 7,000 yuan in 2008! In the end, when a rich man bought it, his eyes
Without even blinking, he thought he had bought such a good thing, but it was all hype!"
"Well, so I think Archie has done a good job, buying more jade and jade and less touching those ethereal calligraphy and paintings." He Hao said.
"That's not the case. Some good works can also be bought." Yang Xue said with a smile, "But Archie hasn't sold anything in the past year. In my opinion, he is a better antique dealer than me.
If you understand antiques, you know how to avoid the bubble stage.”
Xiao Qi smiled and said nothing.
It’s not that he knows anything about antiques, he just knows about the skyrocketing prices in recent years.
Besides, he didn’t use these treasures to speculate and make money. He just wanted to leave some heirlooms for future generations of the family. Whether he made money or not, he didn’t care. (To be continued.)
