Chapter 668 Guarding the Idealism in the Heart

After hearing Hong Kang's words, Wang Guolin did not show much excitement.

He said, "You know what? You're not the first person to say that to me."

"But none of them could agree with me."

Hong Kang smiled and said, "What's the reason?"

"Is it because of the proportion of the shares? Or is it because of your persistence in idealism? Or is it because of feelings, ingenuity or something?"

Wang Guolin smiled dryly, petting the cat, his smile a bit bitter.

"I've already lived like this, how can I talk about feelings and ingenuity..."

"Now I think these things are pure nonsense..."

Ye Lanqiu couldn't help but said: "Old Wang, don't give up on yourself!"

"But, I said but..."

"There's an ambush."

Hong Kang said with a smile: "There are some things that you don't have to get. As long as you can appreciate them, it's good. When I appreciate them, it's a kind of fun."

Hong Kang asked: "What is the difference between you and those investors?"

Ye Lanqiu frowned and said, "Tan Hualin? Isn't the commercial atmosphere there too strong?"

After Ye Lanqiu got the property rights certificate and found a lawyer to draw up the contract, all he needed was Wang Guolin's signature.

Zhang Qiling suddenly jumped out, with a "clang" sound, the ancient black gold sword came out of its sheath, and he blocked it with the sword.

Mr. Hong has a shop here? He is from Jiangcheng?

Faced with such favorable conditions, Wang Guolin smiled noncommittally: "What next?"

With the bank's ability to clear the way, the procedures were completed very quickly.

Hong Kang chuckled: "Shopkeeper Wang is a quick talker, and he is indeed a sweetheart."

Wang Guolin smiled happily this time. He felt that what this man said made sense.

There was a pause and hesitation.

Ye Lanqiu said: "No! The book you chose is very in line with the tastes of humanities and social science readers!"

Hong Kang said: "Shopkeeper Wang, let me mention a few points, please listen to them."

This is a great idea, and it instantly connects the vague things in his mind during this period.

Wang Guolin shook his head: "I may have my own logic when choosing books, but the bookstore I open has never exceeded 100 square meters..."

In less than a day, the location of Baicao Garden's next store had been determined. After Wang Guolin found someone to read the contract, he found that it was more relaxed than what he had said verbally before, so he signed his name.

He didn't care how the bookstore could be run. He just had some appreciation for the young man named Wang Guolin.

He chuckled: "I don't even know your name now, but if you tell me such a good idea, you won't be afraid that I won't agree to it, and then just do it yourself!"

The tone of these words was a bit condescending, but when it came from Hong Kang's mouth, no one felt anything strange at all.

Is he very clear-headed?

Hong Kang said with a smile: "The reason why I say that is because I happen to have a shop there. It's not big, just two stores. I won't charge you rent, just convert it into a share ratio. Don't worry, you have it."

You have absolute controlling rights, and the layout and management will be all according to your ideas."

The old man who was painting was listening at some point, and he said: "This shopkeeper originally had few customers, but now that you're here, won't there be even fewer people?!"

"I think you are a talent. The books you chose are much better than those recommended by experts. Didn't many professors from China Normal University often come to your store..."

Hong Kangdao: "Then, my suggestion is to choose a more niche book. The books should be mainly in the [ideological, academic, humanities] categories, and some introductory and common popular books should not be selected."

What this person said was what he was thinking about during this period of clearing out and closing the store. He expected this person to say something useful.

Wang Guolin's eyes flashed and he said: "That's just right. The cultural atmosphere of the bookstore can dilute this feeling, which means that there is a need for a bookstore, right?"

"Actually, I have also paid attention to the survival models of many other bookstores. The better one is the cultural tourism model of Pioneer Bookstore in Nanjing, but it is too expensive..."

"But the rent in that area..."

He thought for a while and said: "Some people say that the pace of this era is too fast and there are fewer people reading books. In fact, it is not that there are no readers, and there are not too few."

Wang Guolin said: "In my opinion, bookstores essentially sell books, but now many large bookstores have regarded books as secondary commodities, focusing more on cultural and creative products or coffee drinks, etc., from profits

Judging from the above, the profit points are more substantial than those of books."

Ye Lanqiu couldn't help but turn his head.

But now there is a shop.

Wang Guolin's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Bang!"

"If you feel uncomfortable, you can pretend that I didn't say anything. That's my attitude anyway..."

Yes, when Hong Kang promised Wang Guolin earlier, it was a blank check.

After leaving the Sunshine Pier, Hong Kang took out all the cash from the inner space. Fearing that it was not enough, he also took out part of the gold for Ye Lanqiu to exchange, and bought Tan Hualin's shop, which was registered in Ye Lanqiu's name.

Wang Guolin waved his hand quickly and said: "No, no, no, don't say that. If you do this, I will tell you straight away that your investment will definitely be in vain."

Hong Kang said unhurriedly: "Shopkeeper Wang has been running a bookstore for more than ten years. He should have realized that he can no longer just purchase goods and sell books. A good bookstore should make progress together with its readers. In the era of bookstores fighting alone,

It’s already past…”

"The key is how to open a bookstore and how to do business. People who read books can talk about their feelings and use their feelings to promote book buying, but bookstore operators can't just use their feelings to open a store and sell books."

Wu Xie glanced at him, his pupils constricted.

Continue on the road and reach an uninhabited road.

"First of all, the bookstore is located in Tanhualin."

Ye Lanqiu comforted him: "Is this just a profit model..."

"I have never managed a large bookstore project. Sir, if you want to build a chain bookstore like that...well, if you ask me for my opinion on book selection, no problem, I can provide some advice. This does not exist.

What is the matter of charging or not..."

Wang Guolin laughed at himself: "Talents? Only talents can open and close bookstores?"

Hong Kang had no control over what happened after that.

"If you invest a lot of money in something, but it's the same as the capital-based bookstores on the roadside outside, I would suggest you not to do it..."

Wang Guolin crossed his arms and leaned forward.

"The essence of a bookstore is to sell books. Cultural sentiments can only assist the profit model. Without a profit model, no matter how strong the sentiments are, it is useless."

The metal collided loudly, and sparks flew from the blade.

…………

Ye Lanqiu said: "I think your current model, Lao Wang, is good. The customer base is not mass but niche."

His mood improved and his body relaxed.

"I'm not saying that I just rely on my feelings. I also hope that the bookstore can make a profit. I also hope to make money when I open a bookstore, but I can't run it well..."

"In addition to books, we also do things related to content production and publishing - cooperate with well-known domestic publishing brands to build a communication platform between publishers, publishing brands, authors, translators and readers..."

Hong Kang said: "I don't care about this. I just admire you as a person, your taste and aesthetics. I believe in your vision for choosing books."

"Shopkeeper Wang, if you want to focus on books and don't want to open those capital-based bookstores, you can make full use of the publishing connections you have accumulated over the past ten years..."

It's a bullet, there's no gunshot, it's silenced.

"Lieh Zi"

To be honest, I prefer a job like a librarian, but there is no library in our county, only Xinhua Bookstore. (Sweat!!) If it weren’t for livelihood, I think it would be good to open a small bookstore in my spare time.
