Chapter 312 The acquisition is completed, Zhang Shuo makes bold statements again, and Mango Car sets sail!

Monday, April 16th.

Zhang Shuo kept his promise and stayed in Shanghai for an extra day. Together with Lu Kai, the rotating president of the group, they attended the unveiling ceremony of the Mango Building.

In order to show its strong support for Sui Ya, the Magic City also arranged for officials to participate.

Under Zhang Shuo's instruction, after the unveiling ceremony, a brief press conference was held to officially announce the establishment of Mango Motors, which was also regarded as a declaration of budding entry into the electric vehicle industry.

A rare high profile.

Zhang Shuo also figured out that in China, you can be a low-key person, but you must do things with a high profile.

"Excuse me, Mr. Zhang, Moya just launched a tender offer for Zhanxun Communications and announced its entry into the semiconductor industry in a high-profile manner. Why is it that it suddenly announced its entry into the electric vehicle track?"

The reporters who came also asked the most provocative questions.

"It's not sudden."

Zhang Shuo has long been familiar with it. "As early as April last year, Germination invested in Linde New Energy, a unicorn company engaged in the R&D and production of lithium batteries for electric vehicles. Fertile Land Research Institute, a subsidiary of Germination Group, also set up a specialized laboratory to engage in

Research on assisted driving has made good progress."

"That is to say, Sprout has actually been involved in the electric vehicle track for a long time?"

The reporter was also dumbfounded.

This information is disclosed for the first time.

"Yes."

"But isn't Sprout an Internet company?" Some reporters were still confused.

"No one has defined that Sprout is just an Internet company, right? It just so happens that we are doing pretty well in the fields of games, social networking, cloud computing, local life services, etc."

Zhang Shuo is a bit like Versailles.

"..."

The reporters present were also depressed. Not only was it good, it was simply unbelievable, okay?

"Mr. Ya has always attached great importance to the research of basic subjects. The purpose of the student aid plan proposed this time is mainly to make a contribution within our ability in the field of basic subjects."

Zhang Shuo changed the subject.

"Could it be that this is also related to Germination's entry into electric vehicles?" Reporters were confused.

"You can say that." Zhang Shuo smiled and nodded, "As we all know, the Internet industry does not need so many chemists, physicists and biologists."

"Ha ha!!!"

The crowd burst into good-natured laughter.

At this time, Zhang Shuo was already the focus of the audience, driving the entire conversation. He looked even more dazzling under the spotlight, yet so calm and composed.

A trace of obsession flashed in Dai Yutong's eyes, such a boss is so handsome.

"From the beginning of its establishment, Sprout has been based on using technology to change the world. It just happened that it started with the Internet, and ultimately ended up in industries such as mobile phones, semiconductors, and electric vehicles. To be precise, it is Manufacturing 2.0."

Zhang Shuo continued to talk.

"Whether it is the Internet or manufacturing, the ultimate goal of Germination is to master the real core technology, concentrate on research and development, make better products, and then use technology to change lives."

"Bah bang bang!!"

There was warm applause at the scene. Is it okay to go up to the top immediately?

Zhang Shuo's speech was also a disguised response to some people's doubts on the Internet that "Mr. Ya has lost its dream" and officially demonstrated Ming Ya's ambitions in technology research and development.

"So, Mei Ya has high expectations for Mango Cars?" Some reporters still found trouble.

The atmosphere at the scene was stagnant.

Yes, no matter how exciting Zhang Shuo's speech was and how spectacular the prospects he described, in the final analysis, the current Mango Car is just an empty frame.

To put it bluntly, it is a bit too ambitious.

"certainly!"

Zhang Shuo’s answer was categorical, “Either we don’t do it, or we strive to be the first in the industry. In order to achieve this goal, there is no upper limit on the investment in the electric vehicle industry, and it will at least start at tens of billions.”

"hiss!!!"

Everyone gasped again.

"Mr. Zhang, can the budding capital chain support Mango Auto's business expansion?"

Some reporters raised questions.

Yes, that’s right, Sprout is indeed very profitable. At the beginning of the year, it raised tens of billions of funds from Qiandu, and not long ago it raised tens of billions of funds from Ali. The monthly profit of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment also exceeded one billion.

But no matter how rich you are, you can't bear such trouble.

In the semiconductor industry alone, even if you invest 10 billion, you won't hear a sound. If you want to grow bigger and stronger, it is conservatively estimated that it will start with an investment of 100 billion.

The same is true for the electric vehicle industry.

Although the concept of electric vehicles has not yet become widely popular, we know from the comparison with foreign Tesla that it was definitely losing money and making money in the past few years.

otherwise.

Tesla will not go public for financing early.

"Don't worry about this. In the second half of this year, Maili Mobile will release its first flagship mobile phone Maili X1, which will bring new prospects and profit growth points to Germination."

Zhang Shuo took the opportunity to advertise Maili X1.

As the Maili X1 launch conference approaches, related marketing has also been quietly launched.

Zhang Shuo just fired the first shot.

"Mai Li X1? Can you introduce it in detail? Mr. Zhang seems very confident?"

Some of the journalists were well-educated and cooperated with the questions.

"Of course." Zhang Shuo also smiled and took over the conversation, "In Maili X1, Germination has invested nearly 30 billion in funds. The research and development results transformed by these expenditures will be well displayed on Maili X1."

"The most important thing is that just like the mobile games owned by Weixin and Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, Moya is always accustomed to originality, and the design of Maili X1 is equally amazing and will be a disruptive product."

Zhang Shuo also brags and doesn't think it's a big deal.

No matter how the outside world evaluates it, first build momentum and whet the appetite of users.

At the end of the press conference, Zhang Shuo said with a smile: "If we remain true to our original aspiration, we will need a lot of scientists and R&D personnel. Here, I would also like to take this opportunity to speak to college students and hope that you will join us in the future, so that I can be reasonable."

I will exploit you and earn back the scholarships that were given out."

"Hahaha!!!"

The reporter was also amused by Zhang Shuo.

………

That night, Zhang Shuo acted as the host and invited the management of Modu Germination Department to dinner. At the same time, he introduced Tang Xiang, the newly appointed general manager of Mango Auto, to everyone.

From now on, Tang Xiang will be the big brother of the sprouting magic city branch and will worship the dock.

In the budding rank system, Tang Xiang was previously the vice president of Qinghe Technology and general manager of Automotive Network, with a rank of M5. After he was transferred to the general manager of Mango Auto, he was ranked M6.

It is a normal promotion.

In Magic City, there are still many budding forces, with Jingwei Studio Group, Qingcheng Magic City Company, Maili (Magic City) R&D Center, Qingyun (Magic City) Data Center, etc. as the backbone.

In the future, Zhanxun Communications will be added as a major force, followed by Mango Auto.

It is not surprising that the Magic City attaches such great importance to Meiya. After obtaining Zhang Shuo's commitment, the final obstacle to Meiya's acquisition of Zhanxun Communications was finally eliminated.

The acquisition contract will be formally signed soon.

………

On Tuesday, Zhang Shuo returned to Binhai City first and rested for a long time before returning to the company to work.

There are a lot of things waiting for him to deal with.

When Zhang Shuo left the headquarters, Lu Kai went to the Magic City, and Jiang Yue went to the capital, only Vice President Gu Mingzhang was in charge of the group headquarters, assuming the responsibilities of interim president.

And Gu Mingzhang himself was involved in the affairs of the Maili Group. It was said that he lived in the company for several days.

It’s also hard enough.

This also made Zhang Shuo realize that as the business scope continues to expand, it is necessary for the group to add a full-time vice president, otherwise he will be too busy if he has to go out for something.

The new vice president should preferably be in charge of the group's Internet business.

Jiang Yue is in charge of administration, Lu Kai is in charge of investment and finance, and the new full-time vice president forms a new troika, forming a new stabilizer to protect the group.

It is not easy to find such a vice president who can sprout the current rank.

No matter what, you have to be a big shot in the industry.

As for within the group, Zhao Xiaohu, Cao Yanhua, and Du Ruiwen each have their own strengths and weaknesses, and they are not qualified for the position of vice president.

You have to look for it from outside.

With his mind at ease, Zhang Shuo took the time to deal with the squeezed group affairs. While he was on a business trip, the giant ship of Germination did not stop, and there were many new trends.

For example, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment.

The new mobile game "Wangxian" was released last Friday, but unfortunately the response was mediocre.

As for Qingyun Data, it has officially launched the southern Sichuan data center project. It is expected to be completed by the end of this year, officially put into use, and connected to the data center in the east.

At the same time, Qingyun Data also launched the Blue Lake project.

Blue Lake is a product design and R&D collaboration tool that serves as an online collaboration platform for product managers, designers, and engineers, seamlessly connecting product, design, and R&D processes.

It aims to reduce communication costs, shorten development cycles, improve work efficiency, help companies establish a scientific working environment, improve company development efficiency, and help product managers and designers improve communication efficiency.

The positioning is similar to Bajie.com.

Specifically, Blue Lake will provide product managers with product document delivery, product logic sorting, high-fidelity interactive prototyping, preview, document history version management and other functions. It will provide designers with one-click diagram cutting, automatic annotation, online review, history

Version management, design specification management and other functions. Provide front-end engineers with functions such as automatically generating code, viewing annotations anytime and anywhere, and downloading multi-format cutouts.

Move all of this to the cloud at the same time.

It can be said that Qingyun Data has been at the forefront of domestic software services and platform services. In a sense, it has even surpassed Ali Cloud.

In the next stage, Qingyun Data's goal is to integrate these scattered software services and platform services to form a systematic cloud operating system.

That's the real bullshit.

In addition to these, the sprouting investment business has not fallen behind. Although Lu Kai's main energy was involved in the acquisition of Zhanxun, he still controlled the investment and M&A department remotely and completed the investment in Queshi Technology.

It can be seen that Lu Kai is really capable in the field of investment.

………

Thursday, April 19th.

When Zhang Shuo returned to Binhai University again, the previous incident with Su Beibei had not completely dissipated.

The classmates looked at him strangely.

Especially the classmates in the class wanted to get close to Zhang Shuo, but they didn't dare to get close to him, so they had to stay away from him.

Because Qiu Jiahui has been fired.

Even if you are a graduate student, after all, you have not yet entered the society, you will subconsciously think that Qiu Jiahui's departure has something to do with Zhang Shuo, which makes Zhang Shuo look a bit domineering.

Even ruthless.

Zhang Shuo didn't really care, he just kept going his own way.

"Third brother, you are so awesome."

In comparison, Murong Yan and others were like little fans. After meeting, they kept giving thumbs up.

On the contrary, Tang Yu, who was the most active, seemed a little gloomy and said depressedly: "Third brother, I doubt that I will be able to work in the news industry. I always get slapped in the face."

"Be more confident and remove the word doubt." Zhang Shuo smiled.

"Ting!!!"

Tang Yu was so angry that he wanted to bite someone, and rolled his eyes, "How about I become your administrative secretary?"

"If you think too much, even if I want you, you can only be the assistant to the administrative secretary at best."

As the business of Sprout Group develops, the functions of the President's Office are also advancing with the times and constantly being adjusted. Dai Yutong, for example, can now be regarded as Zhang Shuo's big secret.

There is also a secretary assistant under him.

The main responsibilities of a secretarial assistant are to book hotels, book air tickets, arrange travel vehicles, arrange meeting rooms, print documents, arrange lunch and other miscellaneous tasks.

The President's Office has also become a functional department dedicated to serving Zhang Shuo and the rotating president. Work such as managing the security team, small car fleet, canteen, conferences, and office supplies procurement are all handed over to the newly formed administrative department.

"Just a secretary assistant? Forget it."

Tang Yu was a little discouraged. She was just teasing Mengzi, and then said her true thoughts, "Third brother, I want to start as a reporter first, gain more experience, and then become an editor."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Yes, I fully support it!"

In fact, Tang Yu is not stupid, but he is too naive and is too well protected by his second uncle. He has not seen too much about the dark side of society and the dark side of human nature.

Only then did the car turn over.

………

At the weekend, Zhang Shuo went to visit the old man again.

"Xiao Yu said, do you support her becoming a reporter?" Tang Yi rarely talked about his daughter's work.

"???"

Zhang Shuo glanced at Tang Yu, who turned away with a guilty conscience.

"Yes, I support Xiao Yu's career as a reporter. She previously said she wanted to be my secretary's assistant, but I rejected her offer." Zhang Shuo also kept his expression straight and asked Tang Yu to understand what it means to be a sinister person in the world.

"Ting!!!"

Tang Yu turned his head in shock, baring his teeth and claws.

"Nonsense!"

Tang Yi glared at Tang Yu, who felt even more aggrieved.

"Don't talk about her anymore."

Fortunately, Tang Yi did not continue to have an attack. When he faced Zhang Shuo again, he pointed out: "Mr. Ya has been very active recently. He is attacking from all sides. I can hear the calluses in my ears."

"The action is a bit big, but there is nothing we can do. Time will not wait for us."

Of course, Zhang Shuo heard his second uncle's worries, but as he said, whether it is semiconductors, electric vehicles, or the mobile phone industry, the window period left for budding is only a few years.

Some projects have to be launched even if they are not launched.

"Are your judgments about the future situation a little too pessimistic?" After having been in contact with Zhang Shuo for a long time, Tang Yi was also vaguely aware of Zhang Shuo's views on changes in the international situation.

In the current mainstream view, that is a complete pessimist.

"Maybe." Zhang Shuo didn't know how to explain it, so he said with a smile: "Second uncle, you know, I am usually conservative and like to prepare for the worst."

"Are you still conservative?"

Tang Yi nodded to Zhang Shuo, and he was not shy about talking about him, but he had to explain some things clearly to Zhang Shuo, "Such a radical expansion of the sprout does not look good, and it will make some people have a bad opinion.

."

Even if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them.

Although the country now generally supports private enterprises, the status of entrepreneurs in society has also increased, and they often become guests of officials.

Entrepreneurs have also been elevated to a very high position.

But Sprout is indeed an anomaly. It is already an octopus in the Internet industry, and now it has extended its tentacles to mobile phones, semiconductors, electric vehicles and other fields.

What's even more outrageous is.

It has been less than two years since the establishment of Sprout. If this trend continues, to what extent will Sprout expand in ten years? It is really unimaginable.

"You really have become a chaebol."

This is already the voice of some people.

"Then there's nothing I can do. There are some things that I have to do." Zhang Shuo can't control a lot of it now. "If you don't do it now, if you miss the opportunity and catch up again, you will have to pay ten times or even a hundred times."

strength."

Who says some enterprises are ineffective if they only know they are in trouble?

"Then do it well."

Seeing Zhang Shuo's resolute attitude, Tang Yi couldn't persuade him anymore, and from a personal point of view, he actually admired Zhang Shuo's pioneering and enterprising spirit.

Young people should be so energetic and indomitable.

"Of course, Sprout is not omnipotent. As it gets involved in more and more businesses, its scale becomes larger and larger, and its organizational structure becomes more and more complex. When the time comes in the future, Sprout will also make some appropriate efforts to slim down, especially in the Internet industry.

Industry, we will cut off some non-core businesses in due course, including some investment projects."

Zhang Shuo also gave a guarantee that was not a guarantee.

He also understands his second uncle's worry, that is, he is afraid that if the sprout expands uncontrollably, it will definitely be hit in the end.

"As long as you know what's going on."

No matter what others say, Tang Yi will definitely support Zhang Shuo. On a level that Zhang Shuo cannot see, he is actually protecting Zhang Shuo and Mei Ya.

otherwise.

How can Germination develop as smoothly as it does now?

As for some negative public opinions on the Internet and some obstacles caused by Scarlet Capital, they are nothing to worry about in shopping malls. There are many worse and more despicable methods.

It's never been so sunny and sunny now.

"Ahem, Second Uncle, there is one more thing that I need your strong support for." Zhang Shuo also had too many lice to stop biting people, so he took advantage of the situation and told about the plan to build Haibin University.

"This is a good thing."

Tang Yi's reaction was unexpected, "I fully support it."

Don't blame him for being excited.

In fact, as a first-tier city, Binhai City only has a weak foundation in the two major fields of education and medical care due to insufficient background, which has always been one of the shortcomings in attracting talents.

It would be a good thing to introduce a research university, even if it is privately run.

Tang Yi had no reason to object.

"In this way, Moya will first make a detailed project plan, and then I will ask the city government to follow up. It is best to find a few well-known universities to cooperate with us to promote this matter together."

Tang Yi also knew very well that if he wanted to accomplish this, there would be many internal obstacles and obstacles. It was best to unite all the forces that could be united.

Never eat alone.

"I think so too. In the future, companies such as Warwick, Tenda, and BYD will be invited to participate. Suya is just the leader and is not planning to lead the construction of Haibin University."

Zhang Shuo is also very knowledgeable and knows that there are some things that you can do alone, and there are some things that you should never be in the spotlight.

Wang Shilang's advice still rings in my ears.

"It's good that you think so."

Tang Yi was very pleased, and then glanced at Tang Yu, who was peeling oranges and eating them out of boredom. Listening to the conversation between the two was like reading a book from heaven, and he probably didn't hear anything.

So helpless!

………

Tuesday, April 24th.

Lu Kai lived up to his trust and formally signed an acquisition contract with Zhanxun Communications on behalf of Sprout Investment, marking the formal implementation of this tens of billions acquisition.

All that's left is to follow the process.

The next day, Lu Kai returned to Binhai City and reported the results of his work to Zhang Shuo.

"Thanks for your hard work!"

Zhang Shuo did not hesitate to praise Lu Kai.

It has to be said that since Lu Kai took over as rotating president, he has achieved a lot.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Mr. Zhang, there is a question now. After acquiring Zhanxun Communications, according to the previous plan, Zhanxun Communications will be transferred to Daosui Semiconductor.

But the problem is that Daosui Semiconductor is already a second-tier subsidiary, so wouldn’t Zhanxun be a third-tier subsidiary? This may make Zhanxun’s management unconvinced and lead to the loss of talent,” Lu Kai said.

out of his worries.

"This is indeed a problem." Zhang Shuo did not expect this, thought for a moment, and said: "Then, let's separate Daosui Semiconductor from Maili Group and upgrade it to a first-class subsidiary."

When Daosui Semiconductor was founded, it was just for the chip design business.

But now, Daosui Semiconductor has become a carrier for Germination to enter the semiconductor industry, and the tasks and missions it carries have far exceeded previous expectations.

"But Inaho Semiconductor itself is still empty..."

"Then transfer all the shares of China Microelectronics held by Sprout Investment, including the shares of semiconductor companies invested by Particle Fund, to Daosui Semiconductor. In this way, won't it be full?"

Zhang Shuo is also courageous.

Now that you have made up your mind, let Inaho Semiconductor make a complete turn.

"That's okay."

Lu Kai no longer objected, "After Daosui Semiconductor is upgraded, will the person in charge still be Roger?"

This is another problem.

When Roger was hired from Apple, the most important thing he valued most was his ability in mobile phone chip design. He was barely able to manage the original Inaho Semiconductor.

Now that the positioning of Daosui Semiconductor has changed, Lu Kai is worried that Roger will not be able to stand still.

"Let Roger serve as the deputy general manager of Daosui Semiconductor first, and his rank will be promoted to M5 level. He will be on trial for a period of time, and then he will consider whether to continue promotion."

Zhang Shuo also has the same concerns. After all, potential does not represent current ability.

"As for the general manager position of Daosui Semiconductor, let Mr. Gu take over it first. The main work of Daosui Semiconductor in the next year will still be around the Maili mobile phone."

Since it was an inspection, Zhang Shuo would not easily place a full-time supervisor above Roger.

This will prevent personnel adjustments from becoming more passive in the future.
