Lu Ximing from the Magic City has built the branches of Wu Dong and Xixi and is ready to open these two markets at any time.

After a week of operation, Shi Lei was surprised to find that the seven-day deposited funds had reached nearly 10 million, while the three-day deposited funds had reached nearly 20 million. This means that the number of people who did not refund the deposit within three days had reached nearly 200,000.

There are only more than 20,000 power banks in the two places, but they actually have more than 200,000 actual users, and only one week is enough. This has to be said to be a miracle.

Ten million of the deposited funds were used to reproduction of products. After discussing with Wei Xingyue, Shi Lei told Lu Ximing that he would preside over the press conference to open the markets of the two cities, Wu Dong and Xixi.

Lu Ximing was shocked.

Although Wei Xingyue had already told him that Shi Lei was still the general manager of the Magic City Branch, he, as the vice president, will be the one who will be responsible for the entire Yangtze River Delta business in the future. Shi Lei will only focus on macro-coordination in the future and will not intervene in specific operations.

However, he was a little unexpected to ask him to host the press conference so soon.

"Mr. Shi, is it a little too fast?" Lu Ximing said with some concern.

Shi Lei smiled and said, "What's wrong? I don't have confidence? Mr. Wei should have told you that the Yangtze River Delta will be held responsible in the future. I will leave the position of the regional manager for you long ago. You won't give up with me at this time, right?"

"It's not that I don't have confidence or give up, I just think it's going to be too fast?"

"Quick? The company and I have been preparing for about a week. Then, in more than a month, we will have an angel round. The initial total investment was less than 30 million, and the angel round was already valuated at 250 million. Now, the layout of the four first-tier cities of the Imperial Capital, the Magic City, Bao'an, and Yangcheng has been completed. The next area will be continuous, and within a week, we will start a round of financing. Do you think that the speed of promotion to a regional manager in two months is really fast?"

Lu Ximing blinked and expressed speechlessness.

He used to do quality control and had management experience, but it was not that he did not have the confidence to lead a branch like this. Although the company's valuation is high, it seems that the company should be large in scale, but since production does not belong to the company and is just an outsourcing job, in fact, the number of employees within the company is not too large.

Lu Ximing is still very sure of managing this little manpower.

However, he ignored that this was different from his previous industry. It used to be the real economy, but now it is similar in products as before, but it is not very different when it comes to renting and selling.

After all, it is an IT company, or a new model of e-commerce company, which is not the same as the offline industry development of the physical industry he has been engaged in in the past.

In the company where he used to work, it would be good to have a small promotion a year. It would be impossible to be the general manager of the branch for ten or eight years without enduring it. As for the regional manager, this is equivalent to being at the level of the deputy general manager of the group company headquarters, and there is no one who can even think about it for fifteen or twenty years.

But in Flash, Lu Ximing was one of the first employees and veterans, but after all, Flash was only a few months old. He had already felt that this was a rocket-like rise. However, at that time, he felt that he was also a management team in his previous company. Even if he was just a quality control supervisor, it would be fine to switch to this newly established small company, and it would be fine to be a branch deputy.

Who would have thought that in less than two months, Shi Lei and Wei Xingyue would actually promote him to become regional managers. This is a senior position in the group company. He was grateful and couldn't help but feel guilty.

However, after Shi Lei said this, Lu Ximing also realized his thinking mistakes, and he completely figured out the differences in the nature of the company.

In the past, companies were slow to advance and companies were also slow to develop. The value growth of more than ten or twenty points per year and the sales growth doubled is already amazing.

But now, the company's value has increased by several points or even more every day, and sales have increased rapidly.

The performance is rising rapidly and the position is rising rapidly, so there seems to be nothing unacceptable.

The most important thing is the company's scale. From the initially more than a dozen people in the grass-roots team, to the current headquarters alone, there are more than 200 people. Branches in various places have a large number of employees, and the number of employees is much greater than before, so naturally more management personnel are needed.

After thinking it through, Lu Ximing finally nodded and said confidently: "Mr. Shi, I understand. Don't worry, I will do it well! I will never disappoint you and the young lady."

Shi Lei smiled faintly and said, "You really have to do it well. The Yangtze River Delta is the top priority of the company's layout. Now it's just the Magic City, Wu Dong and Xixi. The next step is Xicheng and Kunzhou. Later, the entire Yangtze River Delta will cover the entire Yangtze River Delta. The Yangtze River Delta is the region with the highest GDP and population density in my country, so you, the manager of the region, have the heaviest burden. Of course, since it is still in the layout stage, it is impossible to realize the regional division so quickly, so you are still the deputy general manager of the branch for the time being. However, with the speed of our company's development and expansion, once the two markets of Kunzhou and Xicheng are opened, the establishment of the region will be inevitable. At that time, you will be the best candidate for the regional manager. Entering the company's senior management, Director Wei should have told you when he joined the company, and I will not repeat it."

Lu Ximing seemed to have seen the shares waving to him. He became more and more confident and said, "Mr. Shi, don't worry, please ensure that you complete the task."

Shi Lei waved his hand with a smile, left the company, talked to Wei Qing and Mr. Duan, invited them to have a meal, and returned to Wu Dong.

The next morning, Shi Lei came to Qixuan. He came to discuss with Yao Er about when Shi Qiang would return to Wu Dong.

Currently Qixuan is in Lingdong, and under the leadership of Shi Qiang, the markets of Yangcheng and Bao'an have more than 70% of the market share. It is impossible to say that the Chongbai Army is defeated, but it is obvious that their financing is not good and their performance is average. Especially compared with Qixuan, they are obviously far behind.

Therefore, under Shi Qiang's advice, he had quietly opened the markets in two other cities in the Pearl River Delta.

However, due to limited funds, Shi Qiang only tentatively opened the market and did not make a lot of investment. However, the overall situation in Lingdong, or the Pearl River Delta, has been decided, and the next step of financing is imminent.

Shi Lei promised that Qixuan's C round of financing would be led by Shi Qiang. Of course, this must be based on the premise that he can afford to invest.

Xu Zhida took over it well. Yao Er has been much freer than before during this period, and many things can be left to him to decide.

Shi Lei and Yao Er had already thought of emphasizing Shi back to control the overall situation and liberating Yao Er. In the current situation, it was time.

"It's time to emphasize Shi Ming back?" Shi Lei sat opposite Yao Er's desk and asked him.

Yao Er nodded and said, "The time is indeed ripe, and the company's account is not much money, and it's time to announce the launch of the C round of financing."
