"Lao Lei, look at your sad face, what are you thinking about?" Zhang Tong came over with a cup of tea and handed it to her husband.
She even pinched her husband's forehead.
Lei Jun held his wife's hand with his backhand, and the sadness just now was swept away, and he said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just a little something..."
Before he could finish speaking, his wife cut him off: "Can I still not understand you? If it is a trivial matter, it will make you worry like this?"
"Haha!" Lei Jun laughed.
"Tell me quickly, maybe I can help you think of a solution." Zhang Tong urged him.
Lei Jun then told his wife about Xiaomi’s recent affairs.
Speaking of which, his wife Zhang Tong is not a simple woman. She rarely appears in the news, but she is very famous in the investment community.
In addition to Xiaomi Technology, Lei Jun also has Shunwei Capital, which specializes in VC investments.
His wife is now in charge of Shunwei Capital, and she is not in charge of Shunwei Capital because of her status as Mrs. Lei. She really has many successful cases.
To borrow a common saying, behind every successful man there is a virtuous and virtuous woman, and Zhang Tong is exactly the woman who works silently behind Lei Jun.
"I also saw that LeTV is launching TVs and mobile phones. Do you want to compete with you in a ring?" Zhang Tong laughed. She felt that this was a very interesting thing.
Lei Jun rolled his eyes at his wife: "Lao Jia has money in his hands, and he can cheat. Many people have been deceived by him, and they still want to send money to him. I am also convinced."
Zhang Tong disagreed with her husband's statement: "Lao Lei, your attitude is not to solve the problem. It is actually not difficult to solve this matter."
"How to solve it?" Lei Jun asked his wife.
Then I heard his wife say: "Knock LeTV down in terms of products and let Boss Jia know how powerful Xiaomi Technology is."
She said: "Lao Lei, I believe there are still some loyal fans of Xiaomi."
Xiaomi has taken a different approach from the beginning, not taking the usual path. While other electronic products are gradually moving towards high-end and sophisticated products, Xiaomi has gone in the opposite direction, taking the popular route and taking the cost-effective route.
The market sales in the past two years can prove that Xiaomi is on the right path.
This company was established in 2010, and it only took three or four years for this company to rank first in its category in terms of sales volume. It was recognized by most capital investors before it even went public, with a capital valuation of up to US$45 billion.
Even far surpassing many listed high-tech companies or Internet companies.
But everything has a process of prosperity and decline, but no one expected that Xiaomi Technology's decline would come so quickly.
Starting from the second half of 2015, the sales of Xiaomi Technology's related products on the market have declined significantly. By the first two months of this year, the sales of Xiaomi Technology's related electronic products have dropped significantly.
Although the overall electronics market sales have increased significantly, Xiaomi Technology's overall electronic product shipments have been lower than the same period in 2014. For a time, there were a lot of topics on the Internet about the end of the "Xiaomi Myth".
At the same time, LeTV has also adopted the same market policy as Xiaomi, taking the cost-effective route.
Moreover, LeTV has boasted that their products are amazing, and LeTV is better at using the Internet for publicity, which has also caused many ordinary people to turn their attention to diversified products.
Sales of Xiaomi mobile phones, TVs, and other electronic products under the same sales strategy have all shown obvious weakness.
As soon as work started after the Spring Festival this year, Lei Jun issued his accountability at Xiaomi Technology's annual executive meeting.
He also fired Lao Guo, who was responsible for the production of Xiaomi products, and pointed the finger at Xiaomi Technology CEO Zhou Guangping, which further triggered various suspicions and conflicts among Xiaomi's internal management.
Some people say that Lao Lei is trying to kill the donkey. To borrow a sentence, when fighting for the country, we are brothers, but when we defend the country, we are enemies!
Many internal employees of Xiaomi Technology are also thinking that the conflicts between their boss and other managers have completely intensified when Xiaomi Technology reaches the peak of a stage. Will their company repeat the tragedy in history?
Is there any hope for the company’s next step?
Where is the future of Xiaomi Technology?
Should ordinary workers continue to work with Lao Lei? Or should they choose to find another way out when the time is right?
Because of the superposition of these things, the morale within the company was turbulent and extremely unstable.
The Spring Festival had just ended, and Lei Jun didn't expect that things would come to him one after another. He was now worried and had a headache.
So much so that I came back to Shenzhen from the capital, thinking to calm down for two days and use this time to seriously think about the problems Xiaomi Technology is encountering now and what the next step should be to solve these problems.
"Why don't you go out and relax?" Zhang Tong asked.
When he saw Lei Jun looking at him, Zhang Tong also said: "Old Lei, there is something really wrong with you in this state."
"I know there will be pressure at any time, and I also believe that you have the ability to solve these problems, but you should calm down now, relax yourself first, and then seriously think about how to solve the problem. If you have been tense,
Xian'er, not only will you not be able to solve any problems, but you may also crush yourself."
Zhang Tong's words were very sincere, and Lei Jun also knew that his wife was doing it for his own good.
It’s just that the world is so big, where can we go to relax?
Zhang Tong couldn't tell.
Just when their thoughts were stagnant, their daughter Lei Xinyi ran over holding a toy and looked at the couple with some expectancy in her eyes: "Dad, Mom, let's go and play with Sister Mengmeng?"
"Sister Mengmeng?" Lei Jun didn't respond.
Zhang Tong looked at her daughter who was about to cry. She was stunned for a while and suddenly remembered what was going on.
"It's Xiao Cao's daughter, the little girl named Mengmeng. She spent the New Year's Day at our house this year. Have you forgotten?" Zhang Tong reminded him.
"You talk about them, I remember Xiao Cao also said that his place was very beautiful when the spring flowers bloomed in March. He also invited us to come over and have a look. We can go and have a look." Lei Jun thought for a while and agreed.
"Do you have time these two days?" Zhang Tong asked him.
Lei Jun wanted to say that he had time, but he knew that he really didn't have time these days. After thinking about it for a while, he said to his wife: "Give me a week, and I will take you to Xiao Cao's place to have a look in a week."
"Okay, you go and do your business first, and I just happened to buy some gifts for them to take with them." Zhang Tong said this.
Lei Xinyi heard her parents say that they would take her to see Sister Mengmeng to play in a week. Although she wanted to go now, she still held back.
When she heard her mother say that she wanted to buy a gift for Sister Mengmeng, she even volunteered to help her mother choose something.
…
Also in Shencheng, in a community called Yi Anju, Cao Huifang rents a house here.
After returning from get off work, Cao Huifang chatted with her sister-in-law Cheng Xiaolin after dinner. She heard her sister-in-law talking about the Mengmeng Orchard that was about to open in the video. Then she heard her sister-in-law talk about the children's theme park invested and built by her brother. The park is scheduled to open in the middle of this month.
It’s all planned out, there’s only one week left before the park opens.
Cao Huifang really wants to take this opportunity to go back and take a look, but their factory has recently achieved a major breakthrough in receiving sample orders from Midea Group and Gree Electric Appliances. It is currently stepping up research. At this critical time, like their process engineering department
The mission they bear is very heavy, and it is even more impossible for them to ask for leave and leave.
However, this project has come to an end, and Cao Huifang also heard from his leader Fang Zhu that the company will allow them 5 days of paid leave after the project is completed.
Cao Huifang planned that if the company really gave her five days of paid leave, she would go home for a few days and also take a look at her brother's latest achievements.
"Fangfang, I uploaded some newly shot videos on my short video account. You can also check it out, give me a like, leave a comment to increase your popularity, and help me forward it later when you are not busy.
Do more publicity for our orchard and children's theme park." Cheng Xiaolin's voice came from the other end of the video.
Cao Huifang couldn't help laughing when she heard what her sister-in-law said so casually, but she also promised to help her sister-in-law promote it.
After ending the video call, Cao Huifang was thinking about a question in her mind. Caojiazhuang is more than 2,000 kilometers away from Shencheng. Even if she helps her sister-in-law promote this video, will anyone really go to her hometown from Shenzhen to visit?
Cao Huifang finds this difficult.
Not to mention anything else, the distance between the two places is too far. Putting aside the issue of food and drink, the round trip fare alone costs several thousand yuan, and the accommodation is also expensive. Plus the expenses for food and entertainment after the trip, it’s so difficult.
It is really difficult for ordinary people to do this under such hard conditions.
"Forget it, let's promote it to my colleagues tomorrow. What if someone really gets screwed over and goes to play?" Cao Huifang thought in her mind.
As soon as she arrived at the office the next morning, Cao Huifang told her colleagues that nearly 2,000 acres of kiwi fruit trees in her hometown of Caojiazhuang were about to bloom.
I also told them that the strawberries in the ‘Mengmeng Orchard’ will be ready for picking soon and they are so delicious!
Moreover, there is a children's theme park in my hometown, which is very lively.
"I'm not lying to you. I have a video here for you to see." Cao Huifang used her mobile phone to show them the video taken by her sister-in-law.
Watching the video immediately aroused the curiosity of Chen Tingting and the others. Chen Tingting and the others really wanted to go to Caojiazhuang to see it live.
But they only earn 4,000 to 5,000 yuan a month. Thinking that even taking the train back and forth would cost them at least one-third of their salary, I feel a little discouraged.
I can only hide this thought in my heart with aggrievedness, thinking that after a few days, I will finish my work and walk around Shencheng. There are many beautiful scenery in Shencheng.
"Hey, what are you looking at?" Fang Zhu came in from outside carrying a brown bag.
I saw several people in the office huddled together, not knowing what to discuss, and they would say from time to time: "It's so beautiful, this scene is really speechless, I really want to see it."
"No, it's just too far away, otherwise I would have to go and take a look."
After hearing what they said, Fang Zhu also stepped forward to take a closer look.
Only then did I notice that Cao Huifang’s mobile phone was playing a promotional video for the scenic spot.
In the video, a very beautiful woman is explaining the scenery of Mengmeng Orchard and Children's Theme Park.
Fang Zhu put down her bag, took the phone from Cao Huifang, and watched the video again.
After reading it, Fang Zhu had the idea to go and have a look.
"Huifang, is this really the scenery over there?" Fang Zhu asked her.
Cao Huifang nodded: "Sister Fang, of course it is true. To be honest, the woman in the video is my sister-in-law, and it was my sister-in-law who asked me to help promote her."
When Cao Huifang said this, everyone in the office was surprised.
Chen Tingting and the others didn't hear Cao Huifang say that the woman in the video was her sister-in-law.
"Sister Huifang, why didn't you tell me earlier? I was just thinking about who such a beautiful person is. If she is our sister-in-law, then I will support her no matter what." Chen Tingting changed her tone instantly.
Man Xiyun also nodded: "To be honest, my sister-in-law is still very beautiful, just like the scenery in the video."
Seeing the tone of the two of them, Cao Huifang laughed.
…
Fang Zhu asked Cao Huifang to share her sister-in-law’s video account with her.
After returning to his office, Fang Zhu carefully watched the video uploaded by the video broadcaster called "Mengmeng Orchard".
Many of the videos are a series of short videos related to children's growth, but some videos promote scenic spots.
Continuing to scroll forward, Fang Zhu discovered that this 'Meng Meng Orchard' broadcaster had posted a lot of videos before, and the videos she posted before were really rich in content, and there were many funny and amusing videos. Now I feel like watching them
Interesting.
And Fang Zhu found that the number of likes and comments on those videos were quite high.
Just when he was scrolling forward, Fang Zhu suddenly discovered something, especially in the old videos, a young man and a little girl appeared frequently.
It can be seen from the subtitles and the content of the comment area in the video that these two people are father and daughter. Fang Zhu didn't care at first, but when she was watching the comment area of the video, she suddenly found that many people in the comment area were interested in the father and daughter in the video.
Express various opinions.
It was also from these comments that Fang Zhu knew that the young man was called Cao Shujie and the little girl was called Mengmeng.
"Cao Shujie?" Fang Zhu was stunned for a moment when he thought of this name.
She always felt that it was very familiar, but she just couldn't remember it for a while.
Then I checked online and found out who the other party was.
After figuring this level out, Fang Zhu was thinking about another thing.
Cao Huifang said that these videos were shot by her sister-in-law and edited and uploaded by herself.
If that's the case, is Cao Shujie her brother?
"Ha!" Fang Zhu found it very interesting.
…
Over in Caojiazhuang, all the villagers are working hard to prepare for the upcoming opening of the Mengmeng Orchard and the official opening of the children's theme park.
As time passed day by day, the folks in Caojiazhuang became anxious.
They not only hope that this day will come soon, but also want to give them more time to prepare. They are afraid that if they are not ready in some aspect, the transaction will be messed up and they may regret it to death.
