Chapter 338 Brother Dong wraps his fingers and uses Zhang Style Tai Chi!
Ahri Headquarters.
"What are you talking about? Mei Ya rejected the Baishi shares in our hands?" The uncle frowned slightly, "Is it Mei Ya who is dissatisfied with the settlement price we offered? It's too greedy."
"That's not true."
Ren Xiaoyao explained: "Maiya has promised not to escalate the situation further, respect the official investigation, and will not impose additional pressure or make any other demands."
If Bu Ya doesn't make trouble, then based on previous similar cases, even though Ahri did something a little outrageous this time, he will probably be fined one million, Adon, please give me some thought.
It will not have any damaging effects on Ah Li.
"Will sprouting be so generous?"
The uncle was even more confused. If he put himself in his shoes, he would not let go so easily.
"It seems that Moya doesn't really want to fall out with us. The other party also promised that even if it already controls Baishi Express, it will still maintain strategic cooperation with Ahli."
Ren Xiaoyao admired Zhang Shuo's wisdom.
Just like in this conflict, Mo Yao overturned the table, but didn't seem to do it completely. After showing off his muscles, he retracted his fist in time.
After this combination of punches, the outside world will not say that Moya is unreasonable and unforgiving, but it will also make Moya's competitors feel afraid and realize that Moya is really untouchable.
He is really good at flipping the table when he is in a hurry.
He knows how to handle things appropriately. He is like an old man. How can he do anything that young people can do?
"Zhang Shuo, what kind of medicine are you selling in the gourd?"
The uncle's expression calmed down a little, but he felt that something was not right. A slap in the face and a slap in the face made it difficult for him to take action against Moiya again.
Otherwise, it would appear that he is too arrogant.
"It's better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. I think this is a good step to take." Ren Xiaoyao still insisted on his previous point of view. It is best not to completely break up with Moya if it is not necessary.
Not worth it.
"Okay, let's deal with it according to your wishes." The uncle was a little upset.
………
Marina City.
The next day, Zhang Shuo met Brother Dong at the Germination Building. He heard that he flew in overnight.
"Brother Dong, long time no see!"
Zhang Shuo was also very interesting and personally waited at the elevator door to greet him.
"Mr. Zhang, nice to meet you!"
Although he is older than Zhang Shuo and has more seniority than Zhang Shuo, Brother Dong does not know how to do it, and it is not easy to show off in front of Zhang Shuo. Seriously, Jingdong is a budding direct line unit.
They are comrades in a circle.
After sitting down in the office, Brother Dong took the initiative to open the topic: "Mr. Zhang, I heard that Sprout is incubating the Pinxixi project. In this e-commerce area, our two companies can have deeper cooperation."
"Cooperation? Okay."
Zhang Shuo was a little surprised, thinking that Brother Dong was here to investigate.
Unexpectedly.
Brother Dong was smarter than he thought, and he talked about cooperation as soon as he came up.
"Jingdong is an e-commerce company, and Pinxixi also wants to be an e-commerce company. Isn't Brother Dong worried that the two companies will form head-on competition? Will Suya favor his own son in terms of traffic support?" Zhang Shuo got angry.
taste.
"Well……"
Brother Dong was also embarrassed.
"Just kidding." Zhang Shuo laughed and then said: "In fact, Pin Xixi's positioning is different from Jingdong. There may be some competition in the future, but more opportunities for cooperation."
"oh?"
Brother Dong was immediately interested. He is also a veteran in the e-commerce industry. It is hard to imagine that the e-commerce industry can come up with any new tricks.
But the one who spoke was Zhang Shuo, who was known as the Hand of Miracles, and he subconsciously believed it.
"Brother Dong, you will definitely be able to tell the difference on how to differentiate it after Pinxixi goes online." Zhang Shuo, however, let it slip.
Even if you are a partner, you cannot reveal business secrets, and you can hide them for a while.
"Then I'm really looking forward to it."
Brother Dong was also very smart and did not continue to ask. Instead, he continued the topic at the beginning and took the initiative to propose that he hoped to launch a comprehensive strategic cooperation with Pinxixi in various aspects such as logistics, rush, and merchant sharing and co-construction.
Zhang Shuo also readily agreed.
What the old man said is true, not everyone can engage in e-commerce.
In order to prepare for the establishment of Pinxixi e-commerce company, Wu Sheyuan, the group's human resources director, began to cooperate with headhunting companies as early as three months ago, poaching employees from companies such as Ali to complete the e-commerce management team.
But the new student Pin Xixi is still unable to compete with Jingdong and needs to learn from Jingdong.
It would be great if both parties could reach cooperation.
For this reason, Zhang Shuo reciprocated the favor and said with a smile: "Maili X1 is expected to begin distribution in October. By then, the first and only officially authorized official flagship store will be opened in Jingdong in the short term."
"Okay, thank you!"
Brother Dong was immediately excited. He was very aware of the weight of this gift package.
If Maili X1 is really as good as advertised, then as the only officially authorized flagship store, it will bring extremely huge customer traffic to Jingdong.
Not only that.
Jingdong originally started out by making 3C products, and it already has a good reputation in this field. If it has the aura of Maili X1, it will almost be like becoming a god in a battle.
"After I get back, I will ask someone to draw up a promotion plan for Maili X1." Brother Dong said.
"Don't!"
Zhang Shuo, however, didn't appreciate it and said with a smile: "Maili X1 is mainly high-end, so we can't discount it as soon as it goes online. At most, we can only issue coupons of no more than five yuan."
"All right!"
Brother Dong has become more knowledgeable, and he is not willing to do promotions.
………
Tenda Building.
"Boss, I just received news that Brother Dong, who was frightened by the winter, came to Binhai City and went to find Zhang Shuo." Lu Jian was well-informed and came to report to the second master immediately.
"Are you here to question Zhang Shuoxing?" The second master raised his eyebrows.
According to ordinary people's judgment, there will definitely be "internal" competition between Jingdong and Pinxixi.
"I don't know about that."
Lu Jian, a PHS official, could only grasp some peripheral news. "The acquisition of Baishi Express by Meiya should have been finalized. It seems that Meiya is really determined to show its strength in the e-commerce industry."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Do you think sprouting can become an e-commerce company?" Erye asked the question from his soul.
"Well…"
Lu Jian suddenly became hesitant. He understood the subtext of the second master——
Can Tenda become an e-commerce company?
Speaking of which, Tenda has invested a lot of resources in the e-commerce field, but it always feels a little less interesting. Although it is good compared to small e-commerce companies, it has never been able to catch up with giants such as Ali and Jingdong.
This has almost become the second master’s worry.
Seeing that his competitor Mo Yao has also suffered the same fate, if Mo Ya really succeeds in e-commerce, the second master will probably become depressed and even start to doubt his life.
"Ahem, boss, an invitation to the Maili mobile phone launch conference has been sent from Moya. Who are we planning to attend?" Seeing this, Lu Jian quickly changed the subject.
"I'll go." Erye said.
"You, are you going in person? This is a big deal, isn't it?" Lu Jian was shocked.
"What's the point?" The second master himself was very calm and explained: "After all, it is a local enterprise, so it is appropriate to support it."
Lu Jian didn't believe it.
He guessed that because of Mei Ya's break with Ah Li, the boss got a glimpse of an opportunity?
According to common sense, you might think that after Mei Ya offended Ah Li, Tengda would choose to join forces with Ah Li to jointly check and balance Mei Ya. After all, the enemy of the enemy is a friend.
But in fact, the grudge between Tengda and Ahli is much greater than that between Mengya and Ahli.
It's hard to say who is a friend and who is an enemy.
During this sensitive period, Er Ye chose to attend the press conference in person, which will undoubtedly send a very subtle signal to the outside world. When thinking of Weizhong Bank, it is even more intriguing.
Looking at Lu Jian's back, the second master shook his head slightly.
"Tao Xing is still a little shallow!"
The reason why he chose to support Zhang Shuo was because he had already received news that Tang Yi was about to be promoted to the chief officer of the provincial government. Under such circumstances, how could the enemy continue to bud?
Are you stupid?
………
It's the end of the month in a blink of an eye.
On Friday, August 31, Lu Qi, who had been stationed in Shanghai for two months, finally returned to work at the group headquarters, because tomorrow he would succeed Lu Kai as the rotating president of Sprout Group.
It's no longer appropriate to stay in the magical city.
After two months of investigation and rectification, the merger of Zhanxun and Ruidike has become formal, and it was officially renamed Daosui Semiconductor (Modu) Company, responsible for mobile phone chip design and other related work.
The research and development of Zhulong chips has also entered the fast lane.
The management of the two companies has been reorganized. With Zhang Shuo's strong support, Lu Qi took drastic measures and fired five incompetent executives, promoted three young executives, and parachuted in two executives from outside.
Roger, executive vice president of Inaho Semiconductor, will continue to be based in Shanghai.
In addition to the merger of Zhanxun and Ruidike, the integration of Mango Automobile's R&D team has also come to an end. In addition to the team in Modu, there are also R&D institutions in Yangcheng, Jingshi and other places.
The research and development work of Mango Auto is also on the fast track.
After Lu Qi came back, Germination Group's regular strategic meeting in August was also moved to the last afternoon of the last day of the month.
It is still hosted by Lu Kai.
Lu Kai first reported on the acquisition of Baishi Express and some disputes with Ali, and then moved on to the theme of this regular meeting-Autumn Recruitment.
In the blink of an eye, 2012 is almost entering its second half.
Human Resources Director Wu Sheyuan made a report: "In this year's autumn recruitment, the group expects to recruit 20,000 to 25,000 fresh graduates, of which R&D personnel will account for more than 40%."
This is the lever drawn by Zhang Shuo.
As a company that focuses on R&D, Sprout must have R&D personnel accounting for more than 40%. The future goal is for 60% or even more than 70% of its employees to be R&D personnel.
Otherwise, how would the annual R&D funds be spent?
As for the scale of recruitment, this is the result of extreme restraint. If we really want to meet the employment needs of the budding department, even if we recruit 30,000 people at once, it will not be enough.
However, the establishment of Germination was too short, with insufficient background and lack of middle-level key personnel.
If too many fresh graduates are recruited at once, it will lead to a large proportion of newcomers in the employee structure. Without the support of old employees, problems will easily arise.
So we can only exercise restraint and restraint.
By next year, after all the new employees recruited in the first two years have grown up and become the backbone of the business in their respective departments, they can be free to recruit people.
The recruitment scale of Germination will only increase year by year.
"The specific recruitment will be the responsibility of the human resources department of each subsidiary. The group human resources center is only responsible for the overall scheduling, coordination, and recruitment of the group headquarters." Wu Sheyuan said.
This is also the general trend.
Subsidiaries such as Qingyun Data are already well-known in the industry. When recruiting, they can either use the budding brand name externally or directly recruit under the name Qingyun Data.
In addition, companies such as Daosui Semiconductor and Mango Auto have geographical advantages in Jiangxia and Shanghai where their headquarters are located, and they have maintained good relationships with local universities.
The group only needs to play a supervisory and coordinating role, so that there will not be a farce of various subsidiaries of the group robbing each other of people.
That would be a joke.
Although each company recruits its own employees, coordination must be done at the group level. For example, for a signature event in the same city, it is best for all subsidiaries to attend together.
This also appears more powerful and sincere.
At the end of the meeting, Zhang Shuo made a concluding speech: "Autumn recruitment is a major event related to the strategic development of the group. The heads of each subsidiary must personally implement the implementation. If necessary, they can also take part in person."
Talent is always the core element of an enterprise and cannot be overemphasized.
………
After the regular meeting, Zhang Shuo called Wu Sheyuan to the office alone and had a focused discussion on poaching a senior executive from Shunfeng to replace the founder of Baishi Express and serve as the general manager of Baishi.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Baishi Express will also be under the name of Pinxixi and become a secondary subsidiary of the Germination Department.
"We have almost reached an agreement, and it will be in place next month." Wu Sheyuan did not mince words.
"That's good."
After the conversation ended, Zhang Shuo got off work and had dinner with Miaomiao and Shu Xiaoran. Murong Yan and Li Ling were also there, because tomorrow is the day when Binhai University starts school.
"Brother, will you accompany me to report tomorrow?" Cai Miaomiao was looking forward to it.
"You can accompany you, but I don't recommend that you ask me to accompany you."
"Why?"
"Because Third Brother is a big celebrity in school, if the news that you are Third Brother's cousin is exposed, then congratulations, Miaomiao, you will also become a celebrity at Binhai University, and you will be surrounded by people wherever you go." Murong Yan
laugh.
"Well, forget it then, Xiaoran and I will report it ourselves."
Cai Miaomiao shuddered. She didn't want to say how boring it would be to be a giant panda being watched for four years in college. She was not the kind of person who loved vanity.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have taken advantage of the summer vacation to do a work-study program.
"Also, after school starts, you have to move out of the apartment. Don't run into the apartment when you have nothing to do." Zhang Shuo prefers quietness to the excitement.
"Haha, if I don't look for you, why don't I look for Sister Yan?" Cai Miaomiao was convinced. In less than half a month, she had become familiar with Murong Yan.
Shu Xiaoran just snickered.
"Okay, okay, whatever you want!"
Zhang Shuo was at a loss for this quirky little cousin.
………
Monday, September 3rd.
After reporting to school, Zhang Shuo returned to the company and had to process a new month's funding application.
Allocate 1.2 billion operating funds to Maili Group, of which 800 million are special funds for research and development;
Allocate 500 million R&D funding to the Fertile Soil Research Institute;
Allocate 300 million R&D funding to Mango Automobile;
Allocate 500 million R&D funds to Daosui Semiconductor;
Allocate 200 million start-up capital to Pinxixi;
Allocate 600 million operating funds to Germinal Real Estate, of which 500 million is project funds.
All added together, the special allocation is a full 3.3 billion, a decrease of 800 million from last month. This is already the lowest level in recent months.
In August, in order to take control of Baishi Express and obtain 75.5% of the shares of Baishi Express, Moya invested 1.5 billion, which is considered the largest expenditure.
Profitability.
At the end of August, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment turned in a profit of 1.9 billion, an increase of 220 million compared to last month. In addition to benefiting from the growth of the mobile game business, it also benefited from the great success of the "Dyson Sphere Project".
With the blessing of the Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment brand, "Dyson Sphere Project" sold 1 million copies in just ten days after its launch, bringing more than RMB 60 million in operating income to Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment.
It can be said to be the biggest surprise in August.
It's just that compared to the steady flow of mobile games, stand-alone games are more like a one-time deal.
After entering September, the domestic sales of "Dyson Sphere Project" will continue to decline. If you want to achieve high growth, you can only develop overseas markets.
At present, Valve has shown great interest in "Dyson Sphere Project" and wants to win the exclusive overseas agency rights of "Dyson Sphere Project" and sell it on Steam.
At that time, you can blackmail Valve severely to avenge the last acquisition of Dota 2.
In addition to handing over profits, in the past August, the overseas agency fees for "Honkai Academy 2" and "Clash of Kings" were also sold for 400 million, which is another huge profit.
besides.
Qinghe Technology also rarely turned over 30 million in profits, which mainly came from Dundun Interactive Entertainment’s brokerage business, Tiantian Toutiao’s advertising business income, and fees paid by Weixin.
Among them, advertising business accounts for the bulk.
With the rapid rise of Tiantian Toutiao, the news client market is divided up with Tenda News, and the advertising business is also booming.
The future growth potential is astonishing.
Tenda has invested a lot in this area. In addition to Tenda News, its products such as Tenda Video, Tiantian News, and Tenda Sports also rely on advertising revenue to survive.
Since 2006, after achieving initial success in the fields of social software and online games, Tenda has regarded portals as the next battlefield, hoping to make online advertising the next pillar of revenue for the group.
In the words of the second master -
"The market's price-to-earnings ratio for online games is actually not high, that is, 8 to 10 times. But for online advertising, it may be willing to give it a price-to-earnings ratio of 50 times because it is very stable. In comparison, value-added services, especially online games, because they involve
Human creativity, especially when related to specific products, is less stable."
have a look.
The outside world thinks that games are Tenda’s money-making tool, but within Tenda, people are not even satisfied with game revenue, and would rather build a super platform and live off rent collection.
makes sense.
Online games rely on creativity and originality. Where can you get the stability and comfort of just lying around and collecting rent?
Not only Tenda, but also an e-commerce company like Ali will become the largest advertising revenue platform in the future, with annual advertising revenue alone exceeding 100 billion. It is really ironic.
It can be said to be the original sin of the Internet.
In addition to advertising business income, as Weixin breaks out of the circle, Weixin Pay's offline applications are becoming more and more widespread. The handling fees of Weixin Payment add up to a lot of money, which is also a huge profit.
Moreover, the income will be higher and higher in the future, and it is estimated that it will be very easy to exceed 100 million in a single month.
In addition to charging merchants fees, another big scenario for Weixin Payment to make profits is online payment such as Qingcheng App, Jingdong, Nomi.com, etc. Websites also have to pay service fees.
In addition, after Germination Financial Holdings got on the right track, it also turned in a net profit of 10 million in a single month.
These are all good starts.
There is also Qingyun Data. After deducting the data center construction expenses, Qingyun Data has actually made a profit, but because it is no longer 100% controlled, the profits have not been turned over to the headquarters.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! By the end of the year.
It is expected that Qingyun Data will also deliver a good answer.
After two years of gestation, various subsidiaries under Germination have finally begun to bear fruit, turning losses into profits, and are gradually getting on the right track, laying a solid foundation for Germination to take root in the semiconductor industry and manufacturing industry.
………
After signing the grant application, Zhang Shuo started browsing the news as usual.
It's really not peaceful today.
Qiandu announced in a high-profile manner that it will invest 10 billion to build a cloud computing center and officially enter the field of cloud computing. It will compete head-on with Ali Cloud and Qingyun Data.
"Ten billion is too much."
As an industry insider, Zhang Shuo naturally does not believe this high-profile statement.
Take Qingyun Data as an example. The three data centers that have been built, plus the super data center that is under construction, together, the investment is less than 10 billion.
Another high-profile person.
Moreover, in Zhang Shuo's impression, Qiandu's cloud computing has not yet started, but Qiandu's network disk has become the target of countless netizens' complaints, and has become another black spot for Qiandu.
A life of darkness belongs to yes.
Then on September 6, Nokia held a new phone launch conference the day before Maili Group, officially launching a series of new products such as Nokia.
Not surprisingly.
What you gain will not be PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, but bad reviews.
After this press conference, it basically indicates that Nokia's smartphone business has reached the end of its rope, and it is not long before it is sold to Weiruan.
It’s not just Weiruan.
Zhang Shuo is also secretly keeping an eye on Nokia's big fat. He doesn't mean to steal Weiruan's business and spend a lot of money to acquire Nokia's mobile phone business, but he is interested in Nokia's R&D talents.
That is the real essence.
Of course, Nokia is still struggling now, and it is far from time to grab people.
After the Nokia press conference, tomorrow, the world-famous first global press conference of Maili mobile phone will be officially unveiled in Binhai City.
