290 Personal Friendship (2 in 1)

 It takes more than six hours to drive from Lin'an to Luzhou.

Fang Zhuo and his party set out at one o'clock in the afternoon, and arrived just in time to have dinner.

Along the way, Fang Zhuo switched between three identities: Diamond King Laowu, Dangdang investor, and Bingxin chairman.

Regarding Lao Qiu's introduction, although it will not bring him to the marital issues that the older generation talks about, it is indeed considered after the stable stage of Yike's successful listing.

When Fang Zhuo was sitting in the car thinking this, he couldn't help but reflect on the wording considerations in his mind.

When it comes to relationships and marriage, do we still need to be accustomed to using business thinking to deal with it?

Has it reached a stage where you have to think about personal issues, or has it truly entered a stage because of emotional needs?

For example, as Tao Shuyao introduced by Lao Qiu, does the other party or the other party's back also regard each other's resources as weights at both ends of the scale?

When Fang Zhuo thought about this, he felt helpless. People's hearts were far apart. Nowadays, pure emotional pursuit is not so realistic.

People, when you have no money, you are indifferent to feelings, but when you have money, you think about purity.

The experiences of two lifetimes are faintly intertwined in my heart.

Halfway through the drive, Fang Zhuo put aside the thoughts that were hindering him from doing things and took out his cell phone to call Yu Yu, the female boss of Dangdang.com.

He cheered up and said straight to the point: "Mr. Yu, I met Mr. Li in Lin'an this time, and I also met the aggressive CEO of eBay."

"eBay regards Dangdang as a competitor and is extremely optimistic about the domestic e-commerce market. I think Dangdang should not only not be afraid of competition, but also increase its efforts."

"Although Mr. Li is very familiar with the book field, this is a segmented field after all and can be expanded appropriately. Yike is very optimistic about Dangdang, and I am also very optimistic about the future of domestic e-commerce."

Fang Zhuo expressed his stance and waited for Yu Yu's response.

The phone was quiet for a few seconds.

Yu Yu's first reaction was not unexpected but disappointed Fang Zhuo.

"Mr. Fang, we have talked before, Yike Investment will not interfere in Dangdang's operations."

Only this sentence represents the true thoughts of Dangdang Mom and Pop Shop, and there is no need to analyze the subsequent pleasantries carefully.

Fang Zhuo chatted with him for a while, just to kill the boring car ride, and finally ended the call with a sigh.

Secretary Zhao Zhishan in the passenger seat could hear Fang Zhuo's voice clearly.

Then he looked at the boss's expression with his peripheral vision and said cautiously: "Mr. Fang, Dangdang's business strategy is more cautious."

"Well, they are very cautious. They have to observe the competitive situation this time." Fang Zhuo shook his head slightly, "Mr. Yu said that there are multiple categories of B2C plans, but they have their own strategic pace."

He continued: "Mr. Yu believes that money can be burned, but it must be done cautiously under Dangdang's control."

Zhao Zhishan thought about the meaning and asked after a moment: "Dangdang has doubts about follow-up funds?"

"It's not all about financial concerns." Fang Zhuo hit the nail on the head, "Yu always believed that I was optimistic about e-commerce, but he didn't believe that I would be so optimistic about e-commerce. If Dangdang dares to burn money to capture the market at this juncture, whether it's Amazon's

I fully support both B2C and Alibaba Taobao’s C2C.”

Zhao Zhishan was shocked. Mr. Fang's full support may not only be the support of Yike, but also lead the support of many friend organizations.

This kind of effort is worth tens of thousands of dollars and will definitely change the current e-commerce landscape.

She then understood Dangdang's Mr. Yu, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Fang, as your secretary, I didn't know you were so optimistic about domestic e-commerce. Dangdang doesn't dare to burn money to move forward.

normal."

Part of the money Dangdang received from Yike Investment was used to stabilize its shareholding ratio. If it really continues to burn money, until the end, Dangdang may have a surname problem.

Zhao Zhishan believed from the bottom of his heart that his boss’s investment in Dangdang was out of his optimism for e-commerce, but even so...

For example, as Yike Investment increased its investment, Dangdang made mistakes during its money-burning expansion. At this time, the boss, who was recognized as having great ability and vision, sent a team to give correct guidance. How should Li Guoqing and Yu Yu deal with it?

Was there any possibility of rebellion within Dangdang at that time?

Zhao Zhishan believed from the bottom of his heart that his boss would not have such a malicious plan, but Yu Yu and Li Guoqing believed that Sina's experience and lessons should be taken as a warning. They would rather guard their one-third acre of land than settle for chicken heads

Make phoenix tail...

Is it possible to prevent people from having small ambitions?

Zhao Zhishan sorted out the relationship and understood his boss's regrets and regrets.

Based on this situation and Mr. Yu's reaction, even if the boss wants to give full support, he has to consider whether he will be trusting someone else.

"Mr. Fang, if it doesn't work, we can do it ourselves." Zhao Zhishan suggested, "In addition to fighting off international giants like eBay and Amazon, we can still compete with Dangdang and Taobao, right?"

"It's too energy-consuming." Fang Zhuo has been thinking about this issue for the past two days and has already come up with a negative answer. "E-commerce is another field. At the very least, we have to wait until the ice core is ready."

Of course, this does not prevent us from borrowing the help of the medical department to make a rough layout first to see what the future holds.

If you really want to get involved in this field, you probably need better timing and more adequate preparations.

Fang Zhuo stopped talking about this topic. If Dangdang didn't want to, it would still be regarded as a financial investment and he would wait until it went public to make a fortune.

He calmed down his thoughts, picked up the phone and started communicating with Qiu Ciyun from Luzhou.

At present, the construction of Ice Core's factory in Luzhou is going smoothly. The pouring of waffle boards was completed at the end of March. The main factory building is about to be capped. The next step is the positive pressure air supply of the clean room.

Part of the equipment has also arrived in Luzhou. Regarding the approval of equipment procurement from the United States, Qiu Ciyun has made two sets of plans. If Mr. Fang goes well in June, everything will be fine. If not, he will immediately purchase sub-level equipment from all over the world.

Fang Zhuo chatted about equipment procurement for half the journey, but what he really wanted to inspect when he arrived in Luzhou was the treatment of the engineers.

Regarding the ice core project, when it comes to technology, even if there is some conventional knowledge, it is only superficial. Apart from funding, what Fang Zhuo can do is to wholeheartedly coordinate the staffing and treat the engineers as his dearest comrades.

That evening, Fang Zhuo, who arrived in Luzhou, did not disturb the always enthusiastic local leaders. He simply had dinner and then went to a hotel symposium with Qiu Ciyun and other Bingxin executives to hear about the difficulties everyone was facing.

Money, people, equipment.

In addition to these shortcomings, technical integration and introduction are also important and complicated matters.

According to Qiu Ciyun’s experience, Belgium’s technology introduction is relatively reliable, which was also his experience at SMIC.

However, some patented technologies also require U.S. approval, which involves long-arm jurisdiction and is an inherent phenomenon.

Qiu Ciyun has already led his team to fly to Leuven, Belgium. Now he has to wait for Mr. Fang's situation in the United States. At the same time, seeing SMIC's current patent situation, he may have to do some necessary business processing.

After all, the people Qiu Ciyun brought over from SMIC are also familiar with TSMC’s technology.

We chatted for a long time that night. All the Bingxin executives had lost weight compared to the last time they met. This made Fang Zhuo both distressed and full of respect.

But, what can be said?

Why don't you guys take a break and let's take our time?

Don't you work so hard and just enjoy life after taking the money?

Of course it can be like this. The ice core poaching is to pay high prices in the industry at this time. In order to arrange the logistics of engineers, we also pay a lot of money. But now that they are here, many people just want to make a career and help the weak.

The domestic semiconductor industry has contributed a lot.

Among them, some are from SMIC, and even earlier were born in Baodao. They are comparable to many engineers from the mainland, and many engineers from overseas are also quite affected by the atmosphere.

Anyway, whether it’s for money or for the sake of the industry, everyone knows that only by operating the ice core production line effectively can we stay here for a long time.

Judging from the impressions of Qiu Ciyun and other senior executives and the inspection on the second day, Fang Zhuo had a feeling that Bing Xin was really popular.

The next night, the news of the mainland's richest man's inspection of the ice core was still known to the leaders. Secretary-General Luo Minghua drove directly over and took Mr. Fang's hand to fulfill his promise. He planned to cook and have a few drinks in person.

Fang Zhuo refused repeatedly.

"Mr. Fang, I know you don't like socializing. Today, we are not socializing." Luo Minghua insisted, "Whether it's Bingxin settling down or Changhong coming to Lu, I thank you from the bottom of my heart."

"As for me, I have grown old. If you don't mind, let's discuss our personal friendship tonight."

It was really not easy for the city's top-ranked secretary-general to speak like this, so Fang Zhuo could only postpone his return plan and discuss personal friendship with Brother Luo.

Luo Minghua kept his promise and actually brought Chairman Bingxin to his home to cook four dishes himself.

Just...how to put it?

Even if you know that someone is intentionally trying to get closer, but if you do it to this extent, what else can you say?

Fang Zhuo was eating the food and sipping the wine, now he was afraid that when the door opened, another pretty daughter of the Luo family would walk out.

Fortunately, this did not happen.

After three rounds of drinking.

Luo Minghua calls Mr. Fang "Brother Fang", and Fang Zhuo calls Secretary-General Luo "Brother Luo".

This dish and wine are like a seal that stamps the legal stamp on the personal relationship.

Luo Minghua basically didn't talk about official matters, but paid serious and simple attention to the education and security of the families of Bingxin employees in Luzhou. Well... it was something that was quite irritating to Fang Zhuo.

In the end, the conversation was almost exhausted.

Luo Minghua smiled and talked about something: "Oh yes, brother Fang, last time you called me in Tokyo and mentioned Mr. Hu Zhengda, Mr. Hu, he didn't seem to have any contact with us in Luzhou. I wanted to provide investment policies.

I can’t even pick it up.”

Fang Zhuo was startled. He was too busy with things, so he didn't follow up on this.

He pondered for two seconds and said: "Mr. Hu holds an important position in TSMC. I'm afraid it won't be clear for a while. I'll ask around again. If a semiconductor industry cluster can be built in Luzhou, I'd be happy to see it."

A win-win situation.”

Luo Minghua nodded repeatedly, indicating that he had mentioned it once and would not continue to mention it.

After the private family banquet was over, Fang Zhuo returned to the hotel and asked about Mr. Hu's IC design entrepreneurial project that was close to his heart.

Hu Zhengda, TSMC's vice president of marketing, wants to cross fields and get involved in IC design, seeking both investment and preferential policies from the mainland.

After meeting the client in Tokyo, Fang Zhuo said hello to friends from investment institutions and was willing to provide convenience to Mr. Hu.

But, Mr. Hu doesn’t seem to want to use this line.

"Mr. Fang, I really paid attention to it for you." Xiong Xiaoge didn't have any resentment when he was contacted late at night. Instead, he said in a very organized manner, "It's not that Mr. Hu didn't look for investment, he didn't look for me."

"What do you mean? What's the rumor?" Fang Zhuo was a little surprised. Judging from the Hu Zhengda he came into contact with, he should still be short of starting capital.

"He came into contact with Pengcheng's policies and the venture capital there." Xiong Xiaoge gave clear information, "This matter was told to me by Mr. Zhou Zisen of Dachen Venture Capital."

Fang Zhuo said hello to his investment friends in China in Tokyo, and Xiong Xiaoge, a veteran mainland investor, helped to let his friends pay attention.

As for Dachen Venture Capital, it is itself an institutional shareholder of Medical Science and one of the besiegers who followed Mr. Xiong into Hang Lung 23 in anger.

In addition, the full name of Dachen Venture Capital is Pengcheng Dachen Venture Capital Co., Ltd., which is one of the first domestic venture capital institutions established in Pengcheng based on market-oriented operations.

Hu Zhengda came into contact with Pengcheng's policies and looked for investment institutions here, and he fell into the arms of Dachen Venture Capital.

The Mainland's investment circle is big or small, and Fang Zhuo and Xiong Xiaoge are paying attention to this news. Except for a few two or three companies that are really at odds with each other, everyone else is willing to give up face.

In particular, as Fang Zhuo said, Hu Zhengda has stepped into the field of IC design, which is something he has not been responsible for before. This project belongs to the group that is not optimistic.

"Weird, really weird." Fang Zhuo frowned when he heard this, "I have a crush on Mr. Hu, and I have a good start with his brother. Why bother avoiding me like this?"

"In fact, I didn't avoid it." Xiong Xiaoge said with a smile, "For his project, I guess Pengcheng is not willing to invest much, and the amount is not commensurate. If Mr. Hu hits the wall a few more times, he may come to you.

"

Fang Zhuo said "hmm" and said, "I'm just a little confused."

"What's so puzzling? If someone wants to do a project, do they want to be tied to Bing Xin from the beginning? If you want to build an industrial cluster, he will just want to be recruited by you?" Xiong Xiaoge put it bluntly.

"Old Xiong, you still have experience." Fang Zhuo sighed.

Xiong Xiaoge felt that this thing had hidden meaning.

Fang Zhuo made a small request: "In that case, Mr. Xiong, if your friends ask, can you express your disapproval of this IC design project?"

"I'm really not optimistic about it. Are you just optimistic about it?" Xiong Xiaoge asked, adding, "Tell the truth."

"I think it's worth it even if it's used to bring me and his brother closer. Moreover, if this project fails, this man will do a good job at TSMC. It would also be nice to get ice cores to build a 'brother army'."

"Fang Zhuo told the truth.

"You are trying every possible means to make ice cores like this. Really, Mr. Fang, if you really don't succeed, it's purely God's will." Xiong Xiaoge has recently paid attention to SMIC's patent lawsuit, and it can be said that she made this comment.

Fang Zhuo sneered: "I will return to Shanghai in two days and then fly to the United States. If the purchase approval is not passed by then..."

"What do you want?" Xiong Xiaoge asked.

Just wait for the opportunity to pull the fuse of public opinion on the US subprime debt to relieve the hatred in your heart.

"Just sell the equipment quickly and come back to engage in real estate. You will be extravagant and drunk, and your life will not be wasted." Fang Zhuo said seriously.

"Mr. Fang's personal life is so simple, even I, Old Xiong, don't approve of it." Xiong Xiaoge joked, "If I were the richest man in the mainland, I would have long..."

Fang Zhuo asked: "How?"

"I have already invested in all the projects I am optimistic about." Xiong Xiaoge said enviously, "The higher the risk, the more money you invest. If you are not afraid of losing, just invest."

Fang Zhuo: "..."
