Under the guidance of the three giants, the subsidy war gradually faded away. In the process, no major industry changes occurred, so Wanli Travel was able to temporarily maintain its leading market position.
During this calm period, Lin Yi took the time to organize a large-scale company-wide celebration.
The annual meeting before the Spring Festival had actually been held once, but at that time the subsidy war was still at a critical moment, so Lin Yi just used money to boost morale without being too high-profile.
This time it was a phased end. Lin Yi knew that there would be no more troubles in a short period of time, so there was no need to worry about Dudu and Kuaidu causing trouble.
Therefore, the scale of this event is even grander. During the annual meeting, because business could not be relaxed, teams from each region held it separately. Now it is held in the capital.
To this end, Lin Yi and the others recalled the company's main cadres stationed in various cities and regions. This was almost the most well-organized gathering since Wanli went out of the capital to expand its business.
The event was held in a banquet hall of a hotel near the company. As the boss, Lin Yi certainly would not personally pay attention to the layout of the venue. He just glanced at the event plan and signed and approved it.
When I arrived at the place, I found that the scene was quite tense, and it was quite decent.
This is the setting of a Western-style buffet, complete with champagne tower, red carpet, and waiters hired by the hotel carrying trays. Most of Wanli Travel's middle- and high-level people gathered together, dressed neatly and drinking wine.
As the boss, Lin Yi naturally appeared at the finale, so the event officially started after he arrived. As usual, he needs to go on stage to give a speech.
Lin Yi didn't make too long a speech today. He briefly emphasized the company's achievements during this period and thanked everyone for their efforts.
Of course, he also wanted to say that he should avoid arrogance and impetuosity and keep working hard, but there was no need to say this on this occasion. He could have mentioned it at the management meeting the next day.
Next comes free time.
In addition to the insiders from Wanli Travel, there were mainly two people Lin Yi needed to socialize with, sent by his two shareholders.
Over at Xiong Factory, although Robin Li did not come in person, he sent an old acquaintance of Lin Yi, the head of the lbs business department, to come over to congratulate him and Xiong Factory on behalf of him and Xiong Factory. On the other hand, he also announced the special relationship between the two companies.
.
What's the relationship?
Of course it's a "father-son relationship."
Lin Yi didn't care about this, and still chatted and laughed with the person in charge, and they became familiar with each other. There were some scenes that he still had to say.
He especially thanked Xiong Factory for its unswerving support for Wanli Travel during this period, especially the great help from various departments of Xiong Factory Map and Xiong Factory Wallet during the subsidy war some time ago.
Of course there is still money.
That person, on behalf of Bear Factory, accepted the order in full and jokingly said: "The $100 million I gave you was probably the most successful investment Robin ever made."
"The good news is that you have indeed fulfilled your performance commitment to him, won the first place in the taxi-hailing industry, and earned face for Xiong Factory."
"The bad news is that his idea of acquiring Wanli Travel may come to nothing. You are really lucky."…
Regarding the original gambling agreement, it is now basically time to fulfill it, but it still requires some formalities for written confirmation.
Lin Yi has not raised this point with Robin Li yet, but he expects there will be no obstacles. Robin is a decent person.
As for Lin Yi's good luck, it was because Majek came very promptly to mediate the subsidy war. If it were any later, Wanli Travel's financial reserves would be in short supply.
In such a moment of fierce confrontation, it is impossible to find another enemy who comes to intervene, and it is inevitable that the bear factory will have to take money.
In short, the result of this battle was better than Lin Yi expected. He relied on Xiong Factory throughout the whole process but avoided being too deeply involved by Xiong Factory.
To be honest, even if Lin Yi were to do it again now, he could not guarantee that he would be able to replicate this result.
After greeting this person,
The second person who needs to be received by Lin Yi is Liu Jianni.
However, she is not currently an employee of Wanli Travel, but is attending in her current capacity as the company's investor representative.
Currently, only Lin Yi, Li Moyan and Wang Kai knew about the news that Liu Jianni would join Wanli Travel, so only the four of them got together to chat, and the others were wise and did not come to disturb them.
All of these people have dealt with each other before and no introduction is needed. Lin Yi smiled and asked: "When will you come to work? I hope you will have timely rain."
Liu Jiani seemed to be at ease in this situation. She was obviously very experienced. She clinked her glasses before answering:
"It will still take a while, but don't worry, nothing will go wrong. I will definitely not delay your affairs."
"Our business."
Lin Yi emphasized her next identity and then stopped urging.
He took Liu Jianni to get to know his main subordinates. When introducing them, they all said they were investor representatives to prepare for her future work.
The highlight of the episode was, of course, the confidant he and his senior sister brought from the casual takeout website, a self-proclaimed "Thirteen Taibao".
These people are all in their early twenties, and some of them still have a childlike look on their faces. When they appear on such an occasion, they feel like they are children wearing adult clothes.
Two years ago, they were all ordinary college students. Nine months ago, although they had some entrepreneurial experience, they lost the project they were working on together.
And now, they are already the backbone of a rising star startup company, responsible for operations in various regions, and most of their subordinates manage a team of hundreds of people.
Liu Jianni greeted them one by one with a decent smile, and after completing the circle, she whispered to Lin:
"I have seen a lot of entrepreneurs in their twenties, but like Wanli Chuxing, where everyone from the boss to the backbone are school students, this is indeed the first time. It makes me feel like I am back when I was young."
Lin Yi just smiled slightly after hearing this. He was also touched when he saw these people, especially recalling some past scenes, so he said to them with great interest:
"Everyone, I still remember that at the end of June last year, we sold the Yiyi Takeout website. At that time, we had a drink at the barbecue stall outside Jingdian."
"At that time, senior sister and I promised you that the next time we invite you to drink, we will all drink the wine to celebrate."
"We did it today!"
Lin Yi looked quite high-spirited. After greeting the senior sister not far away, he raised his glass high and greeted his group of persistent partners and subordinates loudly:
"cheers!"
Others naturally responded. At this moment, it can be said that the shadow of the failure of the casual food delivery network was completely dispelled in their hearts.
Li Moyan still didn't drink, so she just raised her glass in response, and then silently put it down, but her eyes never left.
