Chapter 262: Yanhu Vocational School! Determined to Win! Matchmaking Business!

Did he want a junior college?

Of course he did!

If he could buy a junior college, it would definitely be a gold mine!

While the population was indeed shrinking, it was currently only affecting kindergartens.

It would take another decade or more before it reached higher education institutions!

With over ten years to develop, was Su Yang really afraid his college would lack students?

"They want to sell?"

"Yes!" Tian Hanxiong laughed over the phone. "Today, their parent company's CFO invited me out for karaoke, so I casually asked if they were willing to sell Yanhu Education... That executive told me to ask around and see who might be interested in that college!"

"I see."

"As soon as I got the news, I notified you first!"

Su Yang: "I don't believe you!"

"Hehe!"

"How much do they want for it?"

Tian Hanxiong said with a chuckle, "One hundred million!"

"They might as well just rob someone!"

"It can't be helped; setting up a junior college is very difficult!"

"Hmm." Su Yang thought for a moment and asked, "Where is the tuition they collected this year?"

"In a bank-supervised account," Tian Hanxiong replied. "According to regulations, the school signs a supervision agreement with a custodian bank. The bank monitors the account and reports to relevant departments... ensuring the funds are used safely and compliantly."

Su Yang frowned. "Are you sure?"

"You don't trust our bank's supervised accounts?"

Su Yang chuckled. "I don't!"

When he bought real estate, he only bought finished homes; he wouldn't touch pre-sales with a ten-foot pole!

Tian Hanxiong didn't argue further. "Anyway, if you're interested, I can act as a bridge for you."

"Do I have competitors?"

"A few companies are quite interested, but I heard they backed off a bit after learning it has to be an all-cash deal!"

Companies that could produce a hundred million in cash all at once were quite rare!

At this stage, many large companies were struggling; there was no reason for them to risk stepping into a new industry.

"What about New Dream Education Group?"

"I asked about them too, but the CFO said they contacted New Dream Group, and the other party didn't give a clear response!" Tian Hanxiong said in a low voice. "Didn't I mention that education group is also short on cash? They have a debt payment coming due soon!"

"Want to meet somewhere and chat?"

"Tomorrow!"

"Deal!"

After hanging up, Su Yang walked to the window in Yu Siying's office, gazing at the beautiful green belt outside the park, lost in thought!

Private junior colleges in Rongcheng were very hard to come by.

Even if he just left this college as it was without much effort, it could provide him with a steady stream of income!

Moreover, the college could train employees for him and offer adult vocational training!

Currently, Spark Media, Meijia Housekeeping, and Jiuxiang Catering were all renting external classrooms for training.

One hundred million?

How could he scrape that together?

He only had over forty million on hand!

He could probably pull over ten million from Spark Media's account, but at most, he'd have fifty or sixty million!

[After repeated negotiations with Dongcheng Real Estate, you finally acquired Yanhu Education Co., Ltd. for eighty million!]

[You took out a loan in the name of the parent company, Jufan Holdings, to make up the remaining funds!]

[Yanhu Education Co., Ltd. only owns Yanhu Vocational College; the company has a debt of 123 million...]

Seeing this loan, Su Yang's eyelid twitched.

A debt of over 120 million was still a bit of a pressure for him!

Su Yang thought for a moment and decided to stall for a bit of time.

Every month he delayed, the more cash he would have on hand!

He didn't want to carry too much debt; after all, Yanhu Education's existing debt was already staggering enough!

Closing the deal next month, in October, would also work; he could still buy it then!

However, if he planned to delay further, then by November, New Dream Education Group would intervene.

And by December, they would push the price of Yanhu Education up to 110 million?

In other words, New Dream Education Group would likely settle their US dollar bond issue around November?

Su Yang felt that made sense; after all, it was a listed education group.

Just the number of students attending schools managed by that group exceeded hundreds of thousands!

How could it possibly collapse so easily?

So... it was best to close the deal next month?

Su Yang narrowed his eyes!

When he snapped out of it, Yu Siying finally asked, "Boss, about the matter with Tao Zhiduo..."

"Let him go!"

Su Yang had already made up his mind.

Trading Tao Zhiduo for a sum of liquid capital was a pretty good deal!

Tao Zhiduo might be valuable now, but it was hard to say about the future.

The lifecycle of an influencer was relatively short; lasting three or four years was considered long-lived!

But a rare junior college like this could be operated for many years once acquired.

Yu Siying said worriedly, "I'm afraid if we really let Tao Zhiduo go, other signed influencers with millions of followers will start having other ideas..."

Su Yang narrowed his eyes. "As long as the liquidated damages are paid in full, anyone can go!"

Yu Siying sighed. "I understand!"

"Don't worry, not many will leave," Su Yang said with a smile. "I admit, I seem to have made a bit of a mistake..."

Whether Su Yang had made a mistake or not, he knew best.

He was simply choosing to let go of some people who wanted to leave in the face of even greater interests!

"No, Boss is already very strong!" Yu Siying said seriously. "A year ago, I wouldn't have dreamed that Spark Media would develop to its current scale!"

"Yeah."

In the evening, Su Yang met Tian Hanxiong in a coffee shop.

As soon as Tian Hanxiong approached, Su Yang smelled the strong scent of alcohol on him.

Tian Hanxiong sat across from Su Yang and took a large gulp of coffee:

"How has Chairman Su considered the matter?"

"Help me get in touch with them!"

"You've decided?"

"Yes!" Su Yang nodded. "I'm very interested in Yanhu Vocational School!"

Tian Hanxiong thought for a moment and asked seriously, "Is Chairman Su confident in managing a junior college well?"

"Of course!"

Seeing the strong confidence in Su Yang's eyes, Tian Hanxiong felt a bit more at ease.

It was quite dangerous for an entrepreneur to blindly enter an unfamiliar industry!

He didn't want Su Yang to fall into a trap; after all, Su Yang was now his client!

"Then I'll set up a meeting for you!"

"Deal!"

After the two settled the matter, they chatted casually.

Only then did Su Yang learn that Tian Hanxiong wasn't a Rongcheng local either.

After arriving in Rongcheng, he had worked his way up to the position of bank manager.

Over the years, he had built up a lot of connections and was considered successful in his career.

But in his thirties, he was still single, though he had already paid in full for a new home in Rongcheng.

Su Yang asked casually, "Have you ever thought about getting a girlfriend?"

"I have, but I'm busy!" Tian Hanxiong said helplessly. "I also don't want to just find any woman to settle down with!"

Su Yang casually pushed a wechat corporate account to Tian Hanxiong.

"What's this?"

"Meijia Housekeeping!"

"Oh! But I already have a part-time cleaner!"

"Meijia is preparing to launch a matchmaking business recently!"

"Uh..." Tian Hanxiong was silent for a long time before saying helplessly, "Chairman Su, you're really something, even wanting to earn my money!"

"You're my friend, no need to pay. Just go and register!" Su Yang said with a laugh. "I'll definitely prioritize arranging a beautiful girl for you when the time comes!"
