Zhao An also returned home.
When I entered the door, Li Zhiyuan was wearing yoga pants and doing maternity exercises...
"Husband is back!"
Seeing Zhao An, Li Zhiyuan didn't do anything, hurriedly stood up and took Zhao An's arm, then wrinkled her nose and said, "Drinking again, who are you with this time?"
Zhao An said with a smile: "Who else can there be? Brother Fang, I talked to him about something in the afternoon, and came back after dinner before finishing the talk."
Li Zhiyuan said: "It's really hard work, then go take a bath and relax in a hot spring."
"Okay, how about we go together?"
"Don't! You bad guy..."
The next morning, Zhao An pushed open the window of the balcony, and found a vast expanse of whiteness between the sky and the earth, and the entire Cuiping Mountain was covered in white.
"Wife, look, it's snowing!"
Zhao An shouted.
Li Zhiyuan shrank back into the bed, and muttered, "It will snow when it snows, it's not like Jiangcheng never snowed."
Zhao An smiled and said, "This year is different. This year, I will watch the snow with you."
Li Zhiyuan said: "What you should think about is how should I go to work today, the car can't drive in such heavy snow."
Zhao An: "How about I ask Yan Dong to bring the helicopter over?"
"It's too ostentatious..." Li Zhiyuan complained, "Why isn't today the weekend? If it were the weekend, I'd let you build a snowman with me today."
Zhao An smiled and said, "It's not too late to pile up after get off work, I'll wait for you."
In the end, the two were still sent to work by helicopter. The pure snow did not cause trouble to the flight of the helicopter, but it was not as threatening as the sandstorm.
Zhao An entered his office, and Xu Wenqian came in and said, "Mr. Zhao, you asked me to investigate domestic diamond cutting companies, and I have some clues."
Zhao An was surprised and said, "Didn't it mean that the domestic cutting technology is much worse than the four major cutting centers?"
Xu Wenqian said: "I thought so too at first...but there is a diamond cutting factory in Shencheng that was established at the beginning of the last century.
After liberation, it also experienced state-run reforms. The technology there was passed from the former Soviet Union.
In line with the current Russian cutting center,
Like Russia, they use self-produced automated machines for diamond cutting,
钻石比率都控源"发；自;小.说,群:9;8、0!2，05?8'5：6！！制在很好的范围之内。”
Zhao An nodded and said: "That's not bad. I have a batch of raw diamonds in my hand, and I plan to entrust them to cut them. You can contact me and ask the price by the way."
Xu Wenqian said: "How many diamonds does Mr. Zhao have?"
Zhao An: "About [-] carats..."
"One hundred thousand carats!!!"
Xu Wenqian has always been flattered, but now she was shocked by Zhao An's handwriting.
"With such a large magnitude, I am worried that their cutting factory may not be able to finish cutting in a while."
Zhao An smiled and said: "It's okay, just cut slowly if you can't finish cutting, I'm not in a hurry,
But you still need to make it clear to them that this 10 carats is just the beginning,
They can definitely train more skilled workers who cut diamonds,
You must know my goal, which is to make diamonds affordable for all women in China. "
Xu Wenqian had just recovered from the shock of the magnitude of 10 carats, and now she was extremely shocked by Zhao An's "magnificent goal".
Seeing Xu Wenqian's stunned expression, Zhao An chuckled and said, "You don't seem to believe it? Let's wait and see..."
It took Xu Wenqian a long time to calm down and said: "Oh, no, I mean this goal, it's great, yes, it's amazing..."
Zhao An chuckled and said, "It's nothing special. Diamonds are something that has been artificially hyped up. I just want to let it drop from the altar!"
Chapter 487
As mentioned earlier, the essence of diamonds is carbon.
In fact, this carbon is not much different from carbon isotope products such as coal and graphite.
Simply put, a diamond is an elemental crystal composed of carbon formed under the conditions of high pressure and high temperature deep in the earth.
However, diamonds are called beautiful and rare by thoughtful capitalists, and they are said to be a symbol of love and loyalty, representing eternal and unbreakable love, and then earn high profits through monopoly and advertising fraud.
This is what Zhao An hated when he was poor.
May I ask how many men who are about to get married have not been hurt by the critical strike of diamonds?
Of course, those who are rich themselves are another matter.
But some people say that buying diamonds is paying IQ tax, these are digressions.
There are [-] carats of diamonds, and he can get large quantities of raw ore at any time in the future. He can completely break the price myth of the diamond industry by himself.
Let every Chinese woman afford diamonds,
Just like a line in "Master": Jinmen Nine Rivers, crabs are cheaper than rice...
Now it’s Zhao An’s place, that’s because you like diamonds, I’ve got enough here, they’re as cheap as coal...
And diamonds are fundamentally different from rubies. Rubies are really rare in production and reserves, and with the intensification of mining activities, they will become even rarer.
But Xu Wenqian didn't quite agree with what Zhao An said.
"Mr. Zhao means that your batch of diamonds will be sold at cost price?"
What's the cost, the most is the cost of cutting, it consumes two teleportation shots per day...
Zhao An said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about the income, we still have a lot of profits after excluding the consumption of cutting and publicity.
It's just that we won't start a price war...take your time and break the price myth of the diamond industry step by step. "
"In a word, in the future, our company's diamonds will be as many as we want.
As long as they can keep up with the cutting speed, we will open to sell! "
After Zhao An said so, Xu Wenqian had nothing to object to: "Okay, I'll go down and make arrangements. Shall we still sell this batch of diamonds through Douyin e-commerce?"
Zhao An nodded and said: "Let's go hand in hand, we can also start preparing for the physical store,
First of all, prepare a flagship store in Jiangcheng...The main products are all kinds of gemstones under our banner,
This is a big project... After you go back, discuss it with the heads of various departments and come up with a plan. "
Xu Wenqian was surprised: "Jiangcheng flagship store?"
Then he said in relief: "This is indeed feasible, our Zhao's advantage is to ensure the supply of products...
At the same time, it can also guarantee the quality and authority of the product. If it is made into a brand, it will form a thriving effect in China. "
Zhao An smiled and said, "Yes, and our own mines produce gold for jewelry...Although we don't have platinum, it's not difficult.
Go ahead, arrange the plan, and we will have a big fight when the new year starts. "
Xu Wenqian went out, and Zhao An called Han Suyu to come in.
"Do you know anything about domestic football clubs?"
Zhao An asked.
Han Suyu thought for a while and said: "As far as I know, although the number of domestic football clubs has reached a certain scale,
But the development of profit channels is not reasonable...
The income of more mature football clubs abroad mainly includes commercial development, game day income and TV broadcast income. "
Zhao An chuckled and said, "It means that domestic football clubs have an unreasonable income structure and may lose money or even be unable to make ends meet?"
Han Suyu raised her eyebrows and said: "You may not believe it, but the operation of most domestic football clubs is not very good.
There are many reasons for this, including the low level of football as a whole, club operations relying on sponsors,
Lack of communication media resources, weak market development, unsound industrial chain, lack of high-level club management talents, etc. "
Zhao Andao: "If I intend to acquire a football club, as my investment advisor, do you have any suggestions?"
Han Suyu said twice: "Mr. Zhao, Mr. Ma, the former chairman of Alibaba's board of directors, and Mr. Wang, the chairman of Mouda, have learned from the past. The club is not as easy to manage as you think..."
Zhao Anman said indifferently: "Whether it's Mr. Ma or Mr. Wang, it's their business if they don't understand. Since I have decided to do it, anyway, within my ability, I certainly hope to realize my dream. Is it wealth, or something else."
Han Suyu said: "Mr. Zhao took it for granted. This thing is easy to say, but it is somewhat unreliable in practice?"
Zhao An laughed and said, "It seems to be true, but now that I'm the boss, you can just do it."
Han Suyu continued: "Actually, it's not just you men who like football, many of us women also like green fields. Birds of a feather flock together and people are divided into groups.
Friends are gathered by circles, how can you join other people's circles if you don't have the same interests?
To give the simplest example, in the World Cup in Russia a few years ago, the entire screen viewing volume reached a staggering 38 billion.
Mr. Zhao needs to know that the number of viewers of the Olympic Games is less than 10 billion. Within one month during the World Cup in Russia,
Hundreds of thousands of people go to Russia for tourism, which is only one month and not the number of tourists. "
Zhao An nodded and said: "You are right, with the development of the times and information technology, especially the development of the short video industry,
But seriously, this is the dream and youth of many passionate boys...
From now on, I will give you a task to inquire about the market price, I am going to buy one. "
Han Suyu was shocked and said: "Mr. Zhao, listen to me, this is really a big hole, it can't be filled without more than a billion...and it may not have any effect."
Zhao An raised his eyebrows and said, "How can dreams be measured simply by money?
And I have thought it through carefully, not to mention [-]% certainty, at least [-]% probability, I can rewrite the history of our domestic football. "
"Just brag, if those rotten shrimps can be saved, pigs can fly to the sky!" Han Suyu became familiar with Zhao An, and her words were not so formal.
Zhao An snorted and said: "It is precisely because no one is optimistic about it that I want to do the opposite. If everyone does not do it and does not support it, then let alone talk about the future. If you are not optimistic about it, how about How about we make a bet?"
Han Suyu: "What bet?"
Zhao An said boldly, "Within five years, I will definitely be able to..."
......
Chapter 488 Be Careful
Facing Zhao An's boastful words, Han Suyu couldn't help saying: "Then I'm going to win, and you can give me and Wang Bing a year's paid leave... Remember, it's paid."
Zhao An nodded with a smile and said, "Yes... I will also lend you the Tranquility, and I will cover all expenses!"
"It's a deal!" Han Suyu said proudly.
Zhao An chuckled and said, "Then what should you do if you lose?"
Han Suyu: "If I lose, I will wash my hair upside down!"
Hahaha......
Zhao An smiled and said, "Your bet is too cheap. If I lose, I will lose two talents and a large salary. If I win, I just want to watch you wash your hair upside down.
Hey, tell me... what's so good about washing your hair upside down? "
Han Suyu stomped her feet and said, "Then Mr. Zhao, what should we do?"
Zhao An still smiled and said: "Well, if you win, my bet will be cashed out as usual,
But if you lose... In the next five years, you must guarantee to have at least three children with Wang Bing! "
Han Suyu blushed, gritted her teeth and said, "It's a bet!"
Zhao An: "Let's agree first, you need to cooperate with me unconditionally in all matters during this period... and you can't make any obstacles, otherwise, you still lose!"
"Am I, Han Suyu, that kind of person? A job is a job, and a bet is a personal bet. I can tell the difference." Han Suyu stared.
Zhao An nodded and said, "Okay then, go ahead and screen for me the domestic clubs that are interested in selling... Let's buy one depending on the situation."
"Besides, I asked you to buy the shares of Sany Heavy Industry. How did the purchase go?"
Han Suyu said: "We are already doing a lot of buying. We have already bought about [-]% of the outstanding shares of the other party. Do we need to continue buying?"
