After the first round of hot sales of Guci mobile phones, the mood and mental state of the company's employees have also undergone different changes. After all, a boss's status comes not only from his salary, but also from the status of the company.
Previously, in the eyes of most ordinary employees, Wei Qingfan was just a reincarnated master who came out to throw away money. There was definitely respect, and no one would have trouble with money, but not much.
Now, in their eyes, Wei Qingfan is still a reincarnated master who comes to throw away money, but he has become a reincarnated master who seems to be quite young and promising... Does this behavior of throwing away money seem to be able to continue for a long time?
The company has grown, and many employees have even met friends who come to buy mobile phones and ask for discount codes, which invisibly increases their sense of honor and recognition, and their attitudes are naturally different.
Wei Qingfan was no different from usual. He had no airs and did not respond to the greeting very enthusiastically. He went straight to his office.
Gossip last night delayed the overtime work that I love, but the plan for the new week has been made in advance. Wei Qingfan took a quick look at it, checked for any omissions, and then went to meetings one by one in each department.
In the hardware department, the Guci mobile phone telecom version has been basically designed and can be tested next; the latest daily output at the foundry finally reached and exceeded the expected value of 4,500 units after half a month's delay.
At least 5,000 mobile phones can be produced.
It will take time to build the two new production lines, and it is expected to take another week to start mass production at the earliest.
Preparations for the second batch of additional 2 million units have been started and are basically going smoothly. There is no need to worry about the lack of supply of certain parts.
There are currently 17,000 units in stock, of which 7,000 units have been ordered to two other channel providers. The second round of sales starting tomorrow will only have 10,000 units in stock, but if the delivery cycle is extended, 15,000 to 25,000 mobile phones can be sold.
——This number was finally finalized at 8,000 units, with 2,000 units reserved for delivery to Zhongfu and Dixintong, which were in the process of expediting shipments, and each of them would receive another 1,000 units.
The youth version submitted a product plan, but Wei Qingfan rejected it. Product manager Yuan Fei made a simple review and promised to submit the second version before get off work today.
On the software side, Luoshen System 2.0 has been further adapted to more other models. Guci Mobile will push the 2.0.1 version update today; Lingxi Voice is also open for download, including Apple, Android and Guci official website, Luoshen Community, this week
The "Moments" function is being further tested.
In addition, Wei Qingfan actually has a big weapon, namely "people nearby" and "Shake". WeChat in the previous life can stand out, in addition to Tencent's strong promotion capabilities and its binding with QQ
In addition, these two "Ye X" artifacts also played an important role.
Momo was once popular and aimed at this type of positioning. The difference is that WeChat entered the market earlier and quickly completed its whitewashing. Momo and other social software took over this function, but then failed in the transformation, and there are still many similar ones.
It can even be said that software under the banner of social dating is still rampant.
This is blameless. If there is a demand, someone will naturally make a profit by meeting the demand.
Wei Qingfan has never proposed these two functions, and it is precisely for this reason that he is worried that it will be detrimental to brand building.
According to his plan for Lingxi, it should be part of the brand ecosystem. Huawei Changlian’s high-definition video calls and screen sharing are the development direction. In the later stage, basic functions such as chat, calls, and friend circles can still be opened to other models.
But the fundamental positioning will not change.
Under this premise, nearby, shaking, etc. seem to be a burden.
But...what if it is launched and can replace WeChat?
Wei Qingfan was a little excited about this, but his reason told him that this was unrealistic, because the root of WeChat's success is still Tencent's strong foundation in the field of online social networking... But, having said that, in the competition with Weibo, Tencent
Wouldn’t it be lost to Sina?
After several struggles, he decided to replace WeChat because Lingxi's positioning of serving the ecological construction of ancient poetry was in conflict with WeChat... Serving the construction of this brand meant that it was naturally an enemy of other manufacturers.
"This star really wants to retire"
When the application markets of major mobile phone brands are established, Lingxi Voice may even be directly and indirectly blocked...
Under such a premise, adhering to ecological construction is still the only way forward, but basic functions can still be opened to adapt to other models to attract users who are tired of "small but beautiful" and further introduce them to the ancient poetry.
Come into the ecosystem.
This level of development will not make other brands too afraid...
Wei Qingfan thought about it for a while, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. It looked a bit like a hammer... Think about how popular the Hammer sticky notes were back then? It didn't seem to attract users to the Hammer... Even Lao Luo finally launched it
A hammer sticky note without a hammer logo is created for those who like hammer sticky notes but hate hammers...
Wei Qingfan took a break and when he came back to his senses, Wang Qinggen was already discussing the application market.
Nowadays, the domestic Android ecosystem is not perfect, because Android smartphones have only begun to explode this year, and many companies’ mobile applications have only just started.
The same is true for third-party application markets. Wandoujia was only established at the end of last year and just started its first beta test this month. Tencent App Store, Baidu Mobile Assistant and the like have not yet appeared.
Backed by the popular Guci mobile phone and Luoshen system, it is not too difficult for Wei Qingfan to enter the market. The next step is to improve the user experience.
Wei Qingfan had already seen the basic design in advance. It was a bit crude, but after all, it was just starting out and there were not many requirements. The interface was simple and clear, and the logic was clear and reasonable.
In addition, the Luoshen Mobile Assistant on the computer is also being developed simultaneously, and the progress and launch date are slightly later.
With so much software to be maintained and developed, Wang Qinggen was undoubtedly under a lot of pressure, but he seemed to be in good spirits. After the meeting, he went to Wei Qingfan alone to raise a problem.
"I think the company should stabilize now."
He came to Wei Qingfan's office and suggested in a more tactful tone, "We are already far ahead of our peers. There is no need to keep rushing forward... As you said, first ensure stability and smoothness... In a short period of time, I
It is recommended not to add other projects yet.”
The popularity of the Guci mobile phone undoubtedly made Wang Qinggen relieved. He knew that he had made the right bet. He was excited and happy, but at the same time, he was also overwhelmed because Wei Qingfan's requirement for the built-in software of the Guci mobile phone was to be "stable and smooth"
, also emphasized that functions can be sacrificed to a certain extent for this purpose...
However, when Wei Qingfan said this, he proposed no shortage of functional plans! A proper boss style, while putting stability first, pushing features for you, and at the same time showing sincere concern.
You have to pay attention to your health and don't work overtime all the time... It sounds like someone really wants to work overtime!
The projects he is currently working on include browsers, input methods, theme stores, communities, housekeepers, Lingxi, shopping malls, and an application market that will be launched soon.
What’s even more terrifying is that he knows that his boss also has music, video, reading, cloud, navigation, and even a PC version of a browser and input method. He is really scared, worried that the work in hand has not been completed yet.
Well, this boss who is always waving his whip to encourage his subordinates to work said again, "XX can be done, as usual, just be stable and smooth"...
Frankly speaking, if it weren't for the boss and someone said this to him again and again, no matter how good-tempered he was, he would still be able to curse. Whether it's a software or a system, stability and smoothness are the most difficult things, okay?
Although the number of people below is also expanding, the new people are not available immediately after they come in. They really can't handle it. No one in the production team is so oppressive.
He really couldn't bear it anymore, so he rarely took the initiative to "give advice".
After Wei Qingfan listened, he looked at him and then couldn't help laughing, "You will also come to complain?"
"no……"
Wang Qinggen was about to explain, but Wei Qingfan interrupted him, reached out and patted his shoulder with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "Brother Wang, we are colleagues, and we should communicate in a timely manner. If you can't bear it, you can tell him earlier. There is no need to be forceful."
Hold on..."
With Wei Qingfan, you don’t have to worry about being scolded and insulted at every turn like you did at PayPal. But at work, when you go to your boss to suggest slowing down your progress, it’s always inevitable to be lectured tactfully. Wang Qinggen was mentally prepared, but he didn’t expect Wei Qing
When Fan met with this reaction, he couldn't help but be startled, as if he seemed to be waiting or even expecting him to complain.
Wei Qingfan smiled and said: "Don't worry, I don't plan to add any more. Now that the framework has been set up, the next step is to lay a solid foundation. Within two years, all these software should be available. Let's optimize them."
That’s it.”
"OK."
Although Wang Qinggen felt that Wei Qingfan's reaction was strange, he still breathed a sigh of relief and felt at ease, saying: "You can rest assured that I will complete the optimization and adaptation as soon as possible."
After he left, Wei Qingfan had another meeting with the marketing department to make arrangements for this week's work, and then took a look at last week's finances - mainly the return of funds. After finishing his work, it was already time in the morning
It was almost over before I had time to pick up my phone.
Li Wanyi replied to the voice message, her voice still mellow and sweet: "Miaomiao called me just now. I'm on my way to see the store."
"It feels good, but I'm not sure yet whether I should do it or not. I went back to talk to Chen Hui and found that her personality is quite suitable. If she is willing, I will let her go to the Xiamen University store to get familiar with it and get used to it."
"What are you busy with? I haven't replied to you for so long."
After Wei Qingfan finished listening and listened to the last particularly gentle and sweet voice message twice, he leaned back in his chair and replied lazily: "It's a meeting. Every Monday is a meeting...but it's pretty good.
go well."
"I found that I am really very discerning, and the people I found were all capable of working..."
"Don't be anxious. Graduation is still more than two months away, and it doesn't mean that we have to open a store before graduation. Letting you come to the capital is to develop your career, and it's not like we are raising you in a cage.
"
After a while, while he was reading emails, Li Wanyi replied to the voice message: "I also want you to raise me. My wish since childhood is to just eat and not work every day."
Just listen to this. Wei Qingfan would not believe the career ambition she has shown in the past few years. Her childhood experience has made her know better than anyone else the truth that "it is better to rely on yourself than to rely on heaven and earth."
Before meeting Wei Qingfan, she hadn't even experienced much warmth from her parents... How could such a girl who had been accustomed to being strong, independent, and dependent on others since she was a child turn into a canary?
Wei Qingfan quickly replied with a smile: "Okay, then after you graduate, you can just lie down at home and give birth to my child."
Li Wanyi said angrily: "Do you think I am a sow or a hen?"
Wei Qingfan smiled and said: "Isn't that what you said? In fact, my dream since I was a child was to find a rich woman to feed myself... Now my dream is about to come true. I am still a beautiful and sexy rich woman. Think about my childhood.
I'm so pitiful, I can't even dream so imaginatively, I'm still too simple."
"Bah! Does such a good word as "simple" have anything to do with you?"
"Yes, doesn't it matter if you are not simple?"
After a while, Li Wanyi sent the text version of his commonly used emoticon package: "[What you said makes sense, I was speechless for a moment.jpg] This is an emoticon package."
Wei Qingfan couldn't help laughing and continued to speak: "I learned this from Cao Ze, isn't it awesome?"
Li Wanyi said "嘁".
While Wei Qingfan was dealing with things, he chatted with his senior sister for a while. He felt filled with tenderness and joy. His exhaustion was gone and he regained his energy. Then he looked at the time and saw that it was time to get off work, so he got up and left, driving to Peking University to accompany Li.
Punchline eats lunch, full and busy, shameless and happy.
