Zhao Xianliang couldn't believe it. Li Mu casually put out two billion yuan to prepare for an unforeseen epidemic.

Li Mu repeated it very seriously: "yes, uncle Zhao, at least two billion."

"My God!" Zhao Xianliang didn't expect that Li Mu would dare to put out two billion yuan to stock up related materials at one go. After returning to his mind, he blurted out to Li Mu, "what are you doing to stock up so many epidemic related materials at this time?"

Because Li Mu has a taobao.com, Zhao Xianliang subconsciously thinks that Li Mu is going to take this opportunity to make a fortune. For two billion yuan of purchase money, as long as we follow the normal market rules, we can certainly achieve more than three billion yuan or even more than four billion yuan of retail sales. If we look at the profit margin of the normal retail industry, we can get a profit of about 500 million yuan after selling these two billion yuan of goods, Li Mu is doing e-commerce, which saves a lot of costs that the real retail industry must bear, so the profit margin will be higher.

Under the normal market rules, if Li Mu's two billion materials are in a state of extreme shortage or plunder, then the profits, let alone 580 million, may even double on the basis of two billion. When the two billion yuan is invested, the net income of two billion yuan will be as easy as the back of hand, and it is not impossible to make higher profits.

Just, this money can't be earned casually! What's the difference between this and making a fortune?

When Zhao Xianliang questioned Li Mu, he was already a little angry.

Xie Yun is also a little surprised. Looking at Li Mu, he looks unbelievable.

She doesn't want to believe that Li Mu is ready to make a big profit. But if Li Mu invests these two billion yuan not to make money, but to control the epidemic, she can't believe that, after all, two billion yuan is not a small amount. Who will invest so much cost to prepare for controlling an epidemic that doesn't know if it will break out?

But Li Mu's next words made Zhao Xianliang and Zhao Xianliang speechless.

Li said: "Uncle Li, some of these materials will be donated to the medical and health system to fight against SARS. Of course, the most important thing is to prepare all kinds of chemical defense clothing and other biochemical defense equipment for medical staff. The rest will be used to maintain the stable supply of related materials in China, to avoid panic caused by the shortage of related materials in various places. What's more We should avoid profiteers from all over the country taking this opportunity to hoard materials, set prices on the ground and disrupt the market. "

Li Mu further explained: "the first part is pure donation, which is jointly paid by Taobao and Muye technology. Although the second part is operational, Taobao will not get an extra penny of interest, all of which are based on the principle guaranteed operation. When necessary, it will be sold at a price lower than the cost price, and Taobao and Muye technology will jointly bear the loss Loss. "

Zhao Xianliang was very ashamed when he said this. Li Mu put out such a large amount of funds to prevent the spread of the epidemic from causing social phenomena. However, he felt subconsciously that he would take the opportunity to make money. In such a contrast, it really seemed that his mind and vision were far behind Li Mu's.

Xie Yun subconsciously looks at his daughter Zhao Ziqiu and sighs in her heart: my good daughter, what kind of monster did you find that made your parents feel ashamed in front of him.

Zhao Xianliang asked Li Mu at the moment, "if there is so much investment, what should we do if there is no outbreak of the epidemic?"

Li Mu said with a smile, "put it on taobao.com and sell it slowly, or donate it to the people who need it. As I said just now, Taobao and Muye technology will bear this part of the loss together, which is only 2 billion yuan. It will not have any substantial impact on the two companies."

After the c-round financing of Muye technology, tens of billions of yuan of cash are lying on the account. Although it costs very fast, it is still tens of billions of yuan. Now, the deposit capital of Taobao has reached tens of billions. With the size of these two companies, we can digest two billion yuan of losses together. It's hard to say that it's irrelevant, but it won't hurt.

Zhao Xianliang couldn't help but give a thumbs up, and when he was excited, he said to Li Mu, "in this way, I will invest 500 million yuan and give it to you for operation. The specific operation principle is the same as that of you two billion yuan!"

For Zhao Xianliang, a real entrepreneur who takes the route of heavy assets, 500 million cash is a large amount. It is much more difficult for him to give out 500 million cash than Li Mu's 5 billion.

When Xie Yun heard his husband's promise, he frowned subconsciously, but soon spread out. His daughter's boyfriend had such courage. His husband responded positively, and he should not delay.

Unexpectedly, Li Mu said with a smile: "uncle, the reason why I made the 2 billion material reserve plan is that I judged that 2 billion should be enough. What's more, a part of the resource replacement of YY will be added to it. So in a word, the total amount of material will increase. You need to add so much money now, but it's not necessary. Then I'm afraid it will cause a lot of waste. "

Zhao Xianliang thought for a moment, and thought that what Li Mu said was also reasonable. If Li Mu had speculated about the material gap, and had provided enough funds to fill the gap, it would not really make much sense for him to add more funds.

Therefore, Zhao Xianliang said to Li Mu, "if there is a temporary additional demand, remember to say hello to me. If there is more, I dare not say that the five or six billion can still be taken out."Li mushuang agreed quickly, but he added in a cryptic way: "Uncle Zhao, I don't think the gap will be very big even if there is one. If you need it, you'll be ready for about one billion."

Zhao Xianliang nodded and said generously, "you can tell me how much is missing."

"Good!"

Li Mu promised, but he didn't take Zhao Xianliang's words seriously.

Even if what Zhao Xianliang said is true, even if the two billion yuan is not enough, Li Mu doesn't want to get money from him.

Although Zhao Xianliang's total assets are not low, since he visited his headquarters base in the suburb of Hangzhou last time, Li Mu's heart is that there will not be too much money in his hand. If he really takes 500 million cash to do a business that is impossible to make profits, or even extremely likely to lose money, he may also be affected.

If the epidemic is under control and the materials are rotten in hand, can he bear the losses, but can he really bear it?

At that time, I can't wait for his funds to go in and out. In order to help him avoid such a possibility, I must give priority to helping him to realize the part of materials he invested. If I invested 2 billion yuan, he invested 500 million yuan, and finally 25 yuan added up to only 500 million yuan, then I would like to let him run 500 million yuan first, but in that way, how about myself and other partners What do you say?

If we don't let him go first, there will be 500 million left in the last half billion and 80% loss. When he goes in, there will be only one billion left. If he is in trouble, it will be even more difficult.

To put it another way, if he really wants to participate then, he can get one billion yuan at most. It's relatively easy to protect his one billion yuan by himself. Even if he doesn't, his loss will not be too great.

Zhao Xianliang didn't realize that he was despised by Li Mu.

……

That night, when Zhao Ziqiu slipped into Li Mu's room as usual, Zhao Xianliang was lying on the bed, feeling with his wife.

"What Li Mu did is extraordinary. It's great. I'm afraid he's the only entrepreneur with such a sense of social responsibility and a great hand in China."

Xie Yun nodded approvingly: "that's one of the reasons why he is so high today. Without such a strong sense of social responsibility, he can't create 3321, let alone inspire young people and the whole society in major occasions. You can see how hot his" positive energy "is now, and his speech at Harvard, which was rated as Harvard School In history, there is no one of the most influential speeches, not even those of the president of the United States, whose speeches are not deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. So young people are full of positive energy, and the heart to feed the society is the most real and the most important. "

Zhao Xianliang said with a smack of his lips: "it seems that I have to communicate with Li Mu. Since I know such a meaningful thing, I can't stand by. I'd better take out a sum of money and give it to him to operate."

Xie Yun couldn't help laughing and said, "well, I don't think you should be involved in this."

"Why?" Zhao Xianliang couldn't help saying: "although the fund is not very generous recently, several hundred million bite teeth can still be taken out."

Xie Yun said: "with so much money invested recently, it's hard to get out hundreds of millions of cash, right? Even if it can be taken out, if it is really damaged, it will have a great impact on us. "

"That's right." Zhao Xianliang sighed and said: "the capital is really a problem. The recent investment of all parties really occupies a large proportion of the cash flow. It's not as big as Li Mucai!"

Xie Yun smiled and said, "when you said you were going to take 500 million yuan out today, didn't you see that Li Mu disliked you a little?"

"Dislike me?" Zhao Xianliang frowned and asked, "what do you dislike me? You don't think I'm paying enough? "

"That shouldn't be." Xie Yun said with a smile, "I feel that people think you are a drag. If you really want to bring in 500 million yuan, you will try your best to resist the risk on yourself in the style of Li Mu's work, so as to protect your whole body and retreat. At that time, did you say that you are dragging others behind?"

Zhao Xianliang subconsciously said, "I don't need him to protect me. I just want to have a heart."

Xie Yun shook his head and said with a smile: "you think so, but Li Mu certainly won't think so. It's no matter that he loses 2 billion yuan. Don't say he loses 500 million yuan. If these five billion yuan can't be put into one year, it will be enough for you to have a headache. How can he see that you are in trouble because of doing good things with him? It's better not to let you in from the beginning than to worry about protecting you then. "

Zhao Xianliang didn't speak for a long time after hearing this, but he sighed bitterly after a long time: "I didn't expect this kid to be despised..."
