Chapter 144 Picking Up Hundreds of Thousands(1/2)
Chapter 144: I just picked up hundreds of thousands of dollars when I went out.
"Hello."
After the phone was connected, the sound coming out sounded quite mature, probably a middle-aged man.
Speaking Mandarin.
Then, the other party introduced himself: "I contacted you on QQ in the morning. The ID is 'a bowl of rice'. My name is Yang Jun. May I ask you your surname."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Kuan felt relieved, and a smile appeared on his face. He greeted him politely: "Hello Mr. Yang, please don't have your surname Zhou, Zhou Kuan."
Zhou Kuan has heard of the name Yang Jun.
There are many people with the same name and surname. The one who can impress him is obviously one of the famous Wang Xing 8 King Kongs in later generations and an employee of Meituan No. 4.
This name, coupled with interest in meituan domain names, Zhou Kuan naturally took the role.
While talking, Zhou Kuan looked around and walked a few more steps into the car parked by the street.
Sitting in the passenger seat, the air conditioner was not turned on.
"Mr. Zhou is free now?" Yang Jun made it straight to the point and did not exchange any greetings at all.
Zhou Kuan didn't say too much, and said directly: "Mr. Yang, please tell me."
Upon hearing this, Yang Jun frankly expressed his intention: "Please forgive me, Mr. Zhou. We have communicated online before, so I will just say it;
I don’t know what conditions Mr. Zhou needs to transfer the domain name meituan.”
Hearing Zhou Kuan's mouth gently raised, Yang Jun's way of speaking was quite tactful, and he didn't say a price directly.
Zhou Kuan was also very calm and straightforward: "Mr. Yang is quick to speak, and I am also talking for a long story short, because I have some of my own opinions and expectations for the double spelling phrase meituan, and I will not consider the transfer fee if it is less than 300,000 yuan."
There was a moment of silence on the other side, and the call suddenly became silent.
It took almost half a minute before Yang Jun spoke again: "I am so blunt, Mr. Zhou is a bit asking for a price."
"I wonder if Mr. Zhou is more sincere."
After hearing this, Zhou Kuan chuckled: "Mr. Yang, if I have no sincerity, I will not even leave my phone number for you."
Yang Jun on the other side of the phone was silent again. This time it was very short, and then he spoke again: "I don't know if Mr. Zhou is not convenient to talk about the reason why he asked for such a price."
"It's very simple, because I'm not those 'mi-nongs' who try their luck." Zhou Kuan admitted frankly.
Yang Jun obviously didn't understand what Mi Nong meant, so he subconsciously asked: "What is Mi Nong."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Kuan pretended to be relieved and said: "The vague pinyin of the domain name is related to corn, and later Minong became a metaphorical nickname for domain name investors."
He said again: "It seems that Mr. Yang wants meituan to be a public demand."
Yang Jun did not deny it, but did not admit it either, just said: "Since Mr. Zhou is not a minnong, why is he asking for a price so much?"
Zhou Kuan still pretended to be patient and explained: "Because the domain name is unique, Mr. Yang has such great doubts about the price of 300,000, which obviously does not meet the conditions of specific demanders."
Finally, he said calmly: "Mr. Yang, business is unsuccessful and righteous, so I will talk about it if I have the opportunity."
"Okay, goodbye." Yang Jun obviously hesitated before saying.
Maybe he has never seen a seller like Zhou Kuan. If he quotes a price, the other party can't afford it, he thinks it is not a suitable buyer.
Anyway, it was a bit inexplicable before the call ended...
After Zhou Kuan hung up the phone, he stepped into the driver's seat and lit the car and fired it. He turned on the air conditioner before returning to the passenger seat.
According to his judgment, Wang Xing's people should contact him again.
Judging from the news that Zhou Kuan has known, Yang Jun is obviously not the one who can make the decision.
Wang Xing was not that poor either. First of all, he sold Renren's predecessor to exchange for more than 10 million yuan. Fanfu had already earned operating income before being shut down due to regulatory reasons;
In addition, Wang Xing had a father who was able to invest 600 million yuan in mining in 2003.
Now Wang Xing's team has become interested in the domain name meituan only after Fanfu is closed for more than 40 days, which shows that they have begun to prepare for the next startup.
Sitting in the car, Zhou Kuan's thoughts changed drastically.
Quickly analyze the situation based on all your known information.
Occasionally, I open my mobile browser to search for information.
Soon, Zhou Kuan sorted out a vein.
"First of all, I remember seeing relevant news in later generations. Fanfu's closure was considered one of the reasons for Sina Weibo's rapid development."
“And now, shortly after Fanfu was closed, I immediately conceptualized the term ‘micro blog’ as ‘Weibo’…
No wonder... China Weibo is so trash and has so many registered users soon!"
Through sorting, Zhou Kuan also figured out one thing.
Because Sina Weibo is not open for registration now, China Weibo has now become a new choice for Fanfu users.
In other words, the transformation from the "China Weibo Concept Network" to the "China Weibo Network" and then the launch of Sina Weibo has given users new choices, making Wang Xing feel that Fan Fu's future is worrying;
In order to consolidate his core team, which has failed four consecutive businesses since around 2004, Wang Xing decisively re-started.
Finally, Zhou Kuan's eyes were bright and his face seemed confident: "In other words, this time 'fishing' might really have a chance."
What he said to Yang Jun was true.
He is not the kind of Minon who takes luck, he is different from Cai Wensheng.
All the domain names collected by Zhou Kuan have specific information value in it. These specific values must be met by the right buyer before they can grasp the price.
Otherwise, if there were so many double-pin combinations that could be combined, the first letter combinations of pinyin would have been valuable, it would have been a big deal.
It is said that domain name trading is a sunset industry, and it is also the source of luck.
Domain names that do not have special meanings are difficult to be valuable.
But on the other hand, because Yang Jun didn't even pay back the price, Zhou Kuan reduced his expectations.
So, after clarifying his thoughts, Zhou Kuan only stayed for a while and planned to turn off the car and return to the smoothie drink shop.
Unexpectedly, the phone rang again.
It's the same number as before.
The person who spoke was Yang Jun, and he just said: "Mr. Zhou, if it is convenient, let's talk about it."
"Please say it." Old God Zhou Kuan said.
Then there was an additional voice: "Hello Mr. Zhou, I am Yang Jun's friend Wang Xing, and we are planning to buy the domain name meituan."
"Well... let's not talk about the price for now. It delays Mr. Zhou for a few minutes. Why does Mr. Zhou think that meituan has unique value?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Kuan first greeted him politely: "Hello Mr. Wang."
Then he suddenly said enthusiastically: "Thank you for reminding me that if I just wait for everyone to discover the value of this domain name, it may take a long time."
Then he looked frank and said: "I am a person who is very curious about the Internet world and the information I know is messy;
I think the best combination of meituan is Meituan, which is very suitable to make a group buying website similar to foreign Groupon;
This word grouping is also suitable for the habits of our Chinese people, so what I look forward to is to be a buyer of such websites."
Speaking of this, Zhou Kuan laughed: "The same thing is true. If you have the opportunity, I hope you can help spread it a little."
Then he called out: "Haha, Mr. Wang, don't mind, I just said that, I will modify the domain name to display the web page information."
"Haha..." Wang Xing also responded and laughed twice, and then said, "No wonder Yang Jun said that Mr. Zhou was very strange, and he also said that he was not Mi Nong who took the chance."
After a little stop, Wang Xing changed the topic: "Can you take the liberty to ask Mr. Zhou a question? Since you have some specific judgments about these domain names, have you ever thought about starting a business?"
"Mr. Wang's words are really presumptuous. If I have money and ability, why do I talk about it on paper?" Zhou Kuan smiled and seemed a little unhappy.
After hearing what Zhou Kuan said, Wang Xing also apologized.
Then he asked again: "Mr. Zhou seems to be optimistic about the future of group buying websites?"
Zhou Kuan seemed to say casually: "It's okay, people are lazy, especially our country has a large population. This kind of website platform that only provides convenient services to people will rise overseas and will only become more popular in China."
At the end, Zhou Kuan changed his tone and curled his smile: "Mr. Wang, this is all worthy of additional information. If Mr. Wang has no intention, I'm sorry."
After Zhou Kuan expressed his intention to end the call, Wang Xing quickly said: "Can the price be reduced?"
Zhou Kuan said unreasonably: "If it is a team planning to start a group buying website, in order to make it easier for users to identify the website and provide network services, they can't even afford to purchase a domain name of 300,000 yuan. I really can't believe that they can stand out from the future competition. This will obviously bury the domain name meituan with unique attributes."
After the words were finished, Wang Xing there had almost no hesitation and directly said the price: "Mr. Zhou, how about the price of 200,000 yuan in one go."
Zhou Kuan did not hesitate and quoted: "280,000!"
"220,000!" Wang Xing continued to bite.
Zhou Kuan said again: "In this way, I will take another step back, 250,000 yuan, just make a friend. The purchase price of this domain name is not low."
Wang Xing said without saying a word, "Trade."
After the transaction, Zhou Kuan smiled and said, "Happy cooperation. I wish Mr. Wang a big and strong group buying platform in China. Congratulations on making a fortune in advance."
"Happy cooperation." Wang Xing also continued.
He didn't feel happy at all.
