Chapter 484 Dongzhi Flash Memorys acquisition encounters obstacles, and there are several changes in personnel!
Returning to his hometown in Jiangcheng, Zhang Shuo was finally no longer the focus of the family.
Gu Xiaoxi is the one.
Not only because this is Gu Xiaoxi's first time back "home", but also because Gu Xiaoxi is pregnant and has become the focus of care in the eyes of her parents.
In fact, before returning to Jiangcheng, Zhang Shuo accompanied Gu Xiaoxi on a trip to southern Sichuan.
I gave grandma a lot of New Year gifts.
Although Gu Xiaoxi wanted to spend the New Year with her grandma, this was her first Spring Festival after marrying Zhang Shuo. As the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, according to the customs in Jiangcheng, she had to go back to Jiangcheng to celebrate the New Year no matter what.
Fortunately, the news of Gu Xiaoxi's marriage to Zhang Shuo had already spread in the village, and those distant relatives who had not had much contact with each other before became "hot" again.
I would visit Grandma Gu Xiaoxi every now and then, and some even wanted to take Grandma to live at home.
There is no need to worry about grandma celebrating the New Year alone.
Let’s talk about the Jiang family.
Ever since Gu Xiaoxi entered the house, the smiles on his father's and mother's faces have never disappeared, and his mother, Cai Shuyu, looks several years younger. She goes out to buy groceries, takes walks, and chats with everyone she meets.
Also, more than a year ago, Cai Shuyu was still worrying about Zhang Shuo's life events. In the blink of an eye, his son not only got married and started a family, but also had children.
For Cai Shuyu, life is basically complete at this point.
It’s when people feel happy when happy events happen.
Relatives at home also come to visit me every three days.
Zhang Shuo was naturally enjoying his leisure time. It was rare to spend a Spring Festival holiday without being disturbed by others, so he called his two best friends, senior brother Wang Yan and Zheng Zhebin, out for a barbecue.
That's called comfort.
On the twenty-eighth day of the year, two busy people, Xu Jia and Lin Weiwei, also returned to Jiangcheng.
It's even more lively when we get together.
What is a little strange is that among the five people, the three elders are already married and even have children, but the two girls, Xu Jia and Lin Weiwei, are still single.
Xu Jia is a flower to play with.
As for Lin Weiwei, because of her celebrity status, getting married is indeed a troublesome matter.
If you can't achieve high, you can't achieve low.
Perhaps because of this reason, this year's party was more or less awkward.
It's better for three gentlemen to get together and let it go.
As they grow older, the friends from back then not only went their separate ways, but also started families and started businesses. With a new life circle, the tacit understanding of the past naturally no longer existed.
It would be great if the five Zhang Shuo people can get together again every year.
What else can you ask for?
Amidst the excitement, another New Year’s Eve has arrived as scheduled.
After the New Year's Eve dinner, Zhang Shuo still followed his old rules. While accepting the blessings from the manager, he also wanted to send Spring Festival blessings to his second uncle and other relatives and friends.
It's like reincarnation again.
Entering the first lunar month, he went to his grandfather's house and other relatives' homes to pay New Year greetings as usual. Zhang Shuo couldn't stay any longer and planned to return to Binhai City on the sixth day of the first lunar month, but his mother tried to persuade him to stay.
In the end, he and Gu Xiaoxi waited until after the Lantern Festival before returning to Binhai City.
Even Cai Shuyu, the mother, was not happy about this. According to her wishes, she wanted to leave Gu Xiaoxi in Jiangcheng to wait for the birth and wait for the child until he was born.
How pitiful the hearts of parents in the world are.
Prior to this, all employees at Germination had been working for a week.
………
Monday, March 9th.
Zhang Shuo, who had "disappeared" for almost a month, finally appeared in the company.
A lot of things happened during this period.
For example, the concept of "Internet" was formally proposed, and an "Internet" action plan was formulated to promote the integration of mobile Internet, cloud computing, big data, and the Internet of Things with modern manufacturing, and to promote the healthy development of e-commerce, industrial Internet, and Internet finance.
, guide Internet companies to expand international markets.
Another example.
Ali, which suffered setbacks two years ago, bucked the trend and launched "Hippo Fresh Food" later this year. It will start a new round of competition with Pinxixi on the fresh food track, which shows that the momentum is still there.
But in the eyes of those in the know, there is another point that is holding on.
With Ahri being fined, Pinxixi has become the biggest winner. In the past three months, Pinxixi has added more than 30 million registered users, rapidly closing the gap with Ahri.
It is true that "the future generations are to be feared".
In the field of fresh food and overseas markets, Pinxixi is already a pioneer.
And just at the end of February, the documentary "Under the Dome" produced by someone was broadcast, and there were many voices of applause and support on the Internet, calling it true.
Who would have thought that in a few years, this documentary would become a pure joke.
It also tore away the veil of hypocrisy of many people.
During this period, there was another piece of news that caused some discussion, that is, Cao Yanhua, who resigned from Qinghe Group, and general Zhou Pengfei joined Marumi.
As the news spread, Marumi's stock price even experienced a slight rise.
It is generally predicted by the outside world that with the addition of two generals, Cao Yanhua and Zhou Pengfei, Marumi's mobile game business, and even the entire game business, will usher in a major explosion.
You know, whether it is Cao Yanhua or Zhou Pengfei, after leaving Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, they took with them a group of subordinates who were loyal to them, covering various fields such as programming, planning, art, and operations.
The total number of people is no less than a hundred.
Marumi was also generous and accepted all the people brought by Zhou and Cao.
After Zhang Shuo received the news, he could only wish Marumi good luck. He also knew that the employees of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment who could be taken away by Zhou and Cao basically had problems that were discovered during the year-end audit.
It can be said to be a nest of snakes and rats.
Zhang Shuo was fortunate that in October last year, he did not hand over the game planning plan for the new year to Cao Yanhua, but to Qinghe Group President Lu Qi, thus avoiding the risk of the game planning plan being leaked in advance.
Although Cao Yanhua also signed a confidentiality agreement, there is still some risk after all.
If you can’t copy it, can’t you imitate it?
During the Spring Festival, the marketing activities of Weixin red envelopes and Moyin short videos also attracted a lot of attention.
"Through the Spring Festival marketing campaign, Weixin Pay added 10 million people to bind their cards, and the number of registered users of Moyin increased by more than 25 million. It can be said that the event was a complete success."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At the meeting, Lu Qi reported on the relevant battle records, and he could not hide his excitement.
In addition to Weixin and Moyin, Pinxixi and Qingcheng, who both participated in the Spring Festival Gala marketing, also took advantage of a wave of Spring Festival Gala traffic, greatly boosting their respective revenue.
It can be said to be a win-win situation!
The Spring Festival is also the peak season for product sales. A series of electronic products owned by Maili Group and the Mango m1 car owned by Mango Group have both experienced a sales peak.
Make a lot of money.
Mobile games such as "King of Pesticide" and "Genshin Impact" have also set new single-day sales records.
The sprouts are flourishing.
"How was your contact with Dongzhi?"
After Lu Qi finished his report, Zhang Shuo turned to look at Gu Mingzhang. This was what he was most concerned about.
After missing out on SanDisk, Dongzhi's flash memory chip business is Yangtze Memory's last chance. If it can win it, then Yangtze Memory will really secure its position as the industry leader.
It can also avoid future patents being used to make a fuss by Dongzhi.
"Years ago, Daosui Group took the lead, joined forces with Yangtze River Storage, and with the support of the group headquarters, formed a joint working group and conducted the first round of contact with Dongzhi."
In order to show attention, Lin Zhengdong, president of Daosui Group, personally served as the leader of the working group.
"Although we are very sincere, it is obvious that Dongzhi is still wary and wary of us. The first round of contact was not very smooth."
Gu Mingzhang said it tactfully enough.
The actual situation is that if it weren't for Lin Zhengdong's insistence, the working group would have been kicked out, and the negotiations were on the verge of breaking down at any time.
Right now, Lin Zhengdong is still in Japan, trying to mobilize his connections in Japan and use roundabout tactics to open a gap in negotiations with Dongzhi from the side.
"Sure enough, it's still the same old problem."
Zhang Shuo was able to figure out a thing or two about the Japanese people's little wife mentality, and smiled and instructed: "In this case, let's stick to the old rules, bring the Dream Fund in, and let's act together."
Lin Zhengdong is very resilient, so the group headquarters naturally needs to give him enough support.
For investment institutions from Europe and the United States, Dongzhi should have no reason to refuse. After all, in the original time and space, Dongzhi's chip business was sold to an overseas consortium headed by Bein Capital.
In addition to introducing the Dream Fund, Zhang Shuo is also waiting for the scandal of Dongzhi's financial fraud to be exposed. By then, Dongzhi will be in a worrying situation and will inevitably learn to bow to reality and change his mind.
With Daosui Group's acquisition of Japan Storage Group in front of us, it's actually not that unacceptable.
"That's what I mean too."
Only when he truly independently carried out overseas acquisitions did Gu Mingzhang realize how big the various tangible and intangible resistances were, and also realized the role that Dream Fund, one of the major shareholders of Germination, could play in it.
It is indeed irreplaceable.
"After introducing the Dream Fund, we can make appropriate concessions on the purchase price, but we must not make concessions on the subsequent control of Dongzhi's flash memory chip business."
Zhang Shuo also has principles.
As long as we can win the Dongzhi flash memory chip business, it doesn't matter if we spend a little more money.
It’s not a loss anyway.
The key is to gain absolute control and completely separate Dongzhi Flash Memory Chip Company from Dongzhi Group. It is best to change the name in the future to completely get rid of the influence and traces of Dongzhi.
The original Spacetime Bein Consortium also operated in this way, with the purpose of getting the new company to be re-listed in Japan.
Of course, it is impossible to imitate the previous operation of Mada Qiqi and completely move Dongzhi's flash memory chip business away from Japan. Japan is not stupid and will never agree.
Not to mention the Dongzhi flash memory chip business, the main body of Japan Storage, which was previously acquired by Daosui Group and the United Dream Fund, still remains in Japan.
The acquisition of Japan Storage is more about acquiring a series of patented technology reserves.
In the subsequent operations, the business and talents of Japan Storage will be established and transferred to Yangtze River Storage. This process, conservatively estimated, will take another three to five years.
"Tell Mr. Lin for me that the acquisition of Dongzhi's flash memory chip business is likely to be a protracted and tug-of-war. I need him to stay calm and not be too impatient to eat hot tofu," Zhang Shuo instructed.
"clear."
Gu Mingzhang smiled and nodded, "I will definitely bring the chairman's instructions."
Even if this matter is temporarily put aside.
The contact with Dongzhi encountered obstacles, but Xinghai Mining has made new developments.
Lu Kai, the group president who is currently directly in charge of Xinghai Mining, reported with a smile: "A few days ago, Xinghai Mining has signed a cooperation agreement with Luoyang Molybdenum, and plans to establish a joint venture with a registered capital of 10 billion, with each company holding half of the equity. The new company will mainly invest in molybdenum, lithium and other minerals in Africa."
"Can."
Zhang Shuo knew that Song Zhiyou, the president of Xinghai Mining, was behind this matter.
Still very motivated.
Xinghai Mining is also advancing in accordance with the established development goals. After completing the first phase, it will immediately move to the second phase and begin to establish a joint company with three strategic partners.
This is like having half a foot in the mining industry.
At the end of the meeting, the main discussion was about personnel issues.
"Chairman, after Cao Yanhua resigns, who will take over the position left behind?" Lu Qi asked for instructions.
Different from Zhou Pengfei before.
Cao Yanhua's original position was vice president of Qinghe Group and president of the interactive entertainment business group. He was an m9-level executive. Relevant personnel adjustments would naturally be discussed at a meeting.
"Wang Cong!"
Zhang Shuo didn't hesitate much, and directly named his best friend Wang Cong, "But he does not have the title of vice president of the group, but only serves as the president of the interactive entertainment business group."
It's like downgrading the game by half a level.
Wang Cong currently serves as the vice president of the interactive entertainment business group of Qinghe Group and the general manager of Qilin Studio Group. This promotion to president of the business group is only half a level.
It is not a promotion beyond the previous level.
It stands to reason that the interactive entertainment business group also has a general like Feng Cheng, vice president and general manager of the Jade Bird Studio Group, who seems to be more suitable for the position of president of the business group.
You know, Jade Bird Studio Group has always been the number one studio group of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment.
But after experiencing the Cao Yanhua incident, what Zhang Shuo valued more than his personal talent was his loyalty to the group and to himself.
Therefore, I gave up Feng Cheng and chose Wang Cong.
It's not completely biased.
In the year-end audit, among the five major studio groups under Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, the Qilin Studio Group under the supervision of Wang Cong had the least exposed problems.
In addition, Feng Cheng had a history of talking back to his boss before, so Zhang Shuo really didn't dare to use it.
"good!"
Lu Qi didn't object.
Cao Yanhua, the thorn in the side, is gone, and the successor has not yet held the title of vice president of Qinghe Group. For Lu Qi, the president of Qinghe Group, it is naturally the best thing.
"One more thing. Didn't the interactive entertainment business group have more than a hundred employees, and Zhou and Cao left? In my opinion, there is no need to recruit new people to fill the gap."
Zhang Shuo has been deliberately controlling the number of employees in the group's Internet business since last year.
Especially related to games.
After all, he has fewer and fewer trump cards at his disposal. In the future, Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment should be able to produce fewer and fewer popular games, so there is no need to recruit people aggressively.
There has never been a long-lasting game manufacturer.
Even a legendary existence like Baoxue, doesn't it end in loneliness in the end?
It's time to be prepared for danger in times of peace.
