Chapter 102 The Wind Rises 2013(1/2)

Author: This month once Teru Furukawa

It is good when the water is shining and the sky is clear, but the mountains are also strange when they are empty and covered with rain.

After the spring rain cleared up, Chen Heyu walked along the embankment with smoke and willows like clouds, on the uneven bluestone slabs, and he was surrounded by tourists.

"Mr. Chen, there is still one hour before the meeting starts."

Zhang Nan was on one side and reminded him.

"It doesn't matter, let's go for a walk and see the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan. If these great poets could visit my hometown and leave a few eternal quatrains, maybe Chunshen will also become an Internet celebrity town."

Chen Heyu waved his hand and smiled casually.

In his previous life, he envied those tourist cities where locals could start small businesses at home without having to leave their hometowns, leaving more time to spend with their families.

But I have to wander abroad, living in a foreign land.

It wasn’t until he was thirty years old that he understood the principle of “a poor family leaves for another country, a prosperous family stays in its place of origin”. It had nothing to do with the city where he was born. It was because he was too poor that he had no choice but to go to an economically developed place to make money and make a living.

"If Mr. Chen could travel back in time to ancient times, he would definitely be a wealthy businessman. With more money, maybe the great poets would be moved."

Zhang Nan joked, money can make the world go round, let alone those poets.

Chen Heyu nodded silently and continued to walk forward. The spring breeze accompanied the lake view, which gave people a feeling of great beauty.

Before coming, he thought this Internet conference was a grand event where big names from all walks of life gathered together.

After arriving, he realized that this was just a small exchange meeting. The Internet conference in his memory would not be held for the first time until November next year.

However, this Hangzhou Internet Summit, spearheaded by Mr. Ma, was attended by many giants.

Host Ali, Penguin Social Horse, Qiandu Boss Li, Rice Phone Rebus, Pig Farm Ding Sanshi, Soul Singer Zhang Chaoyang, etc.

Now that you are here, there is no reason to turn around and leave. It would be good to meet the trend-setters of these times. At least you should ask Professor Zhang for an autograph. Chen Heyu must listen to his "Dear, money is not a problem" every morning.

"Mr. Chen, the person in front seems to be Mr. Lei?"

Zhang Nan pointed at a group of people not far away and whispered.

Chen Heyu raised his head and glanced. His eyesight was much better than ordinary people's. He could clearly see a group of people in front of him. The first one was none other than Rebus, the head of the rice phone.

"Let's go over and say hello."

He ordered, then quickened his pace and faced the opponent in the direction he was heading.

As Lei Jun, it is worthy for Chen Heyu to do this.

Telling about his life experience, novels cannot be written like this, because in the eyes of readers, it is too false and unreal, and the male protagonist of Shuangwen is always hanging on.

At the age of eighteen, he won the top spot in the college entrance examination with a score of 700, and entered the Computer Science Department of Jiangcheng University in the same year.

Two years of college, completing all credits and completing graduation project.

He started his own business in his senior year of college. In the first year after graduation, he joined Jinshan Company as the manager of the development department. He once held the position of CEO and led Jinshan to successfully go public.

In April 2010, he founded the rice mobile phone company. It only took a few years for rice to become one of the top five companies in the market.

In September 2021, the master is already starting to build a car...

Penguin Ma, e-commerce Ma, and even Zhang Xiaolong, the father of WeChat, visited Lei Jun at the beginning of their business and sought investment, but unfortunately they were ruthlessly rejected by him.

"Hello, Mr. Lei, I am Chen Heyu from Future Technology."

Chen Heyu straightened his clothes, took the initiative to reach out his hand, and shook it.

"Hello hello!"

Lei Jun replied politely, with a very friendly smile. In the past two months, Future Technology has become famous and attracted the attention of many investors.

As a well-known angel investor, he has invested in many companies, including Bonjour.com, Karaka, Fanke, YY, etc. Naturally, future technology has also entered his target range.

"Mr. Chen is young and promising. When I was your age, I was still stuck in school and didn't know what I could do in the future."

Lei Jun praised that he knew very well the hardships of starting from scratch.

"Mr. Lei, you deserve the award. When you were in college, you were one of the best among people. If you completed your credits early, I was far behind."

Chen Heyu sneered and complimented the other party.

Everyone was carrying the sedan chair, and both parties wanted to make friends, so they simply found a teahouse nearby and a group of people sat down.

"Mr. Lei, I don't know if it's convenient for me to answer. Why can't rice phone production capacity keep up?"

This question had troubled him for two lifetimes. The person involved was sitting across from him at the moment, so he readily asked it.

"Do I not want to? I can't."

Lei Jun smiled bitterly, and then explained that when he founded Xiaomi, although he was rich, he could not afford the high manufacturing cost of each mobile phone, and he had to maintain a healthy capital chain, so he could only choose to control production and sales.

The cost alone of 500,000 mobile phones accounts for 1 billion in cash flow. If funds cannot be returned quickly, or the mobile phones are unsaleable, the blow to Rice will be devastating.

At the beginning of starting a business, it can be said that every step was taken step by step, and every time I set foot, I was trembling with fear.

Chen Heyu nodded when he heard this. Fortunately, he didn't commit suicide and chose the easier food delivery track to start his own business. Otherwise, the problem of cash flow alone would have tortured him crazy.

"We can cooperate if there is an opportunity."

Lei Jun said casually.

"Mr. Lei, we really have a chance to cooperate."

Chen Heyu smiled and said.

As soon as these words came out, several people around Lei Jun also pricked up their ears, ready to listen to Chen Heyu's advice.

"Oh? Really? Mr. Chen, please tell me in detail."

Lei Jun became interested, picked up the tea bowl, took a sip and asked.

"Kangaroo Express is also my company, Mr. Lei should know that, right?"

Seeing him nodding, Chen Heyu continued: "Rice can open a direct store in Kangaroo Express. Users only need to place an order on the platform, and the delivery rider can deliver the mobile phone to the buyer within an hour."

This proposal made everyone's eyes light up. To buy a new mobile phone in 2013, you would either choose to go to a physical store, or choose Taobao.com or Jingdong.com. Dami has its own shopping mall website, but the logistics is left to the express company.

"What does Mr. Chen mean by treating Xiaomi's directly-operated stores as front-end central warehouses?"

Lei Jun responded quickly and immediately understood the advantages and core competitiveness of this model.

"Yes, kangaroo flash delivery can improve Mr. Lei's capital utilization rate and high turnover of product inventory."

Chen Heyu replied.

Once this is done, it can be regarded as opening up a new model of delivery to stores, which is equivalent to breaking into the core business of Berry Tuan from subdividing categories.

"This plan is good. After I go back, I will have a meeting with the management to discuss it."

Lei Jun said, but did not agree immediately.

Then, skipping this topic, Lei Jun asked Moss AI again. As a senior student in the Department of Computer Science, he was very interested in artificial intelligence.

Four years later, Rice Company developed its first artificial intelligence - Xiao Ai, a voice interaction engine.

By recognizing the user's voice password, it finds the best answers on the Internet and responds to the user's questions. To put it simply, it is a voice version of Qiandu software.

There is some algorithmic intelligence, but the content is limited.

Taking into account the future development prospects of the rice company, Chen Heyu also proposed the cooperation concept of pre-installed mobile phones. Moss Ai can be installed on rice phones through payment.

In 2013, it was a mainstream software marketing model and one of the sources of profit for mobile phone manufacturers.

"This is no problem. Let Mr. Zhang send someone to discuss it when the time comes."

Lei Jun readily agreed and took advantage of the situation to propose the idea of ​​investing in future technology.

"Mr. Lei, I'm sorry. Future Technology is not short of funds for the time being. I will be the first to come to you if I need it in the future."

Chen Heyu pretended to be embarrassed and refused directly. This company was his most important project and had promising future prospects, so he would not sell his shares easily.

Lei Jun smiled and didn't take it seriously. The two chatted happily. He just mentioned it casually. If you are short of money, just invest, just to help your little brother.

"Mr. Lei, it's almost time, let's go there."

A young assistant walked beside Lei Jun and urged in a low voice.



Banyan Tree Wetland Park.

Small bridges and flowing water, weeping willows and flowers, white walls and tiles, and a quiet environment reflect the charm of Jiangnan everywhere.

"Lao Ma, please be careful. I wish you success in hosting this Internet conference."

At the door of the hotel, Lei Jun greeted with a smile, shook hands with Lao Ma, exchanged greetings, and chatted about each other's current situation.

Chen Heyu secretly looked at the thin e-commerce tycoon in front of him, a legendary figure of his generation.

Ahri has not yet been listed on the market, and ordinary people have not yet realized the huge wealth and energy that e-commerce companies have. When it is successfully listed in the beautiful country next year and is sitting on 200 billion U.S. dollars, everyone will realize that Ahri has long been

Become an existence like a giant beast in the sky.

Then start the buy-buy-buy mode, not buying land or houses, but buying companies directly.

Xinyilang, Gao De, Youku, Yinzhou, Yuantong, Weiwei.com, Damai, etc., as well as those who were crushed to death by Chen Heyu in advance and were hungry but had no takeout.
