There was no sunshine outside, it was a cloudy day. When we returned to the capital, the climate suddenly changed, with a bit of autumn coolness.
Yinyin's biological clock has always been accurate. She opened her eyes and waited for a while before getting up from bed without leaving the bed. She went to the bathroom naked, washed herself, put on new underwear, put on sportswear, and started exercising as usual.
The large windows still face Chaoyang Park, and the autumn scenery is beginning to appear.
There is a red leaf forest in Chaoyang Park. It has not changed yet. The red leaves depend on the climate. The earlier it gets cold, the earlier the leaves will turn red.
After running for half an hour, sweating, and making breakfast, when the porridge was almost ready, it was time for Yao Yuan to get up.
This is a fixed rhythm of life for the two of them, and they are both used to it.
Green vegetable porridge, dumplings brought back yesterday, two fried eggs, and crispy dried radish pickles.
Yao Yuan yawned and said, "After coming back from Guangdong and having a meal, it feels like I have regressed. I didn't feel that before, but now I feel that Cantonese-style morning tea is really good."
"It's good, but it's also expensive. The one we went to cost more than 100 yuan per person."
Yinyin took a sip of the porridge and looked at his laziness and said, "Oh, hurry up and eat, I'll go to the car show later!"
"Auto show... Huh! A big boss like me has to go to the auto show to buy a car. If you tell me, it will make people laugh."
"It's not you, it's me."
Yinyin pointed at herself and emphasized: "I, I buy a car."
"How about you save some more money and buy a good car at once. A hundred thousand yuan is enough to cover your trip."
"I'm just traveling. Why did I buy such a good product? I'm not Xiao Mo... Okay, hurry up and eat!"
Gold nine and silver ten are a good time to buy a car.
There was no time in September, and during this free period, Yinyin was busy planning to buy a car. She had a small treasury of her own, which she earned from advertising, and she realized her wish to buy a car after graduation.
After eating, the two of them were ready to go out.
Yinyin's dressing aesthetic has skyrocketed, she can dress herself up, and she no longer wears the same sportswear that lasts forever.
Today I chose a pair of black leggings, paired with a striped shirt, denim jacket, and a black jacket, which has a distinct sense of layering.
This kind of outfit, which is loose at the top and tight at the bottom, especially makes her legs look longer - not to mention her legs are already long.
Yao Yuan stood aside and visually became shorter.
"I should get a booster pad, you look a head taller than me."
"Then you can order some pairs of shoes just for you to wear."
"That's okay too!"
"Fuck it, let's go!"
The two of them went downstairs and drove the Volvo to the International Exhibition Center without calling Xiao Mo.
After the reform and opening up, the first auto show in China was the "National Passenger Car Modified Vehicle Exhibition" held in Beijing in July 1983. It only had trucks and buses, not cars, and was very hard-core.
If you have a car, you can't afford it, and all those who drive it for rent are ***.
This year, there are probably more than 10 million private cars in the country, and there are more than 2 million in Beijing. There are still a few people who can afford cars, but this does not prevent everyone from joining in the fun.
When Yao Yuan arrived at the exhibition center, he didn't want to go in when he saw the people inside, so he said, "Why don't you go to the 4S store? I don't want to visit the auto show."
"I don't know what to buy, I have to take a look first."
"I'll tell you what you don't understand!"
"Yao Yuan, you are out of touch with the masses, I tell you!"…
Yinyin dragged him into the door. He was not out of touch with the masses. This thing was like watching a movie. Who would be interested in a bunch of rags from the old era? He was not easy to collect.
This auto show is very large, with all famous brands present, and there is also a car model stand.
People from industry newspapers and websites were also there, taking photos and doing interviews.
Yao Yuan first looked at the booth map at the door and said, "Don't even think about the Spyker and Maserati. That's Xiao Mo's ultimate goal. You can check out the Mercedes-Benz and BMW. It's fun to go there."
Toyota, Honda, and Nissan in this row are the key areas, but domestically produced ones in this row are also available..."
Set your goal and start shopping.
Yao Yuan knows the car very well, and he can basically understand it by swiping left and right.
"How about Hyundai Elantra?"
"Korean cars are rubbish!"
"Where's Kia?"
"More rubbish!"
"Hey, the Civic is pretty good-looking."
"Pick up the car at a higher price, do you want to?"
"As for Mazda, it's a bit expensive, but I can get a loan."
"Mazda always gets stuck in traffic and gets beat up easily!"
After walking around in a circle, Yao Yuan pointed to two cars and said: "This is called the New Bora, and this is called the Tiida. On average, they are suitable for girls to drive. The price is not expensive, and it costs less than 200,000."
Yinyin frowned and looked at it. She felt it was okay, but not too satisfied. So she continued shopping and walked to Suzuki's booth. Her eyes lit up and she said, "This is fun!"
It was a scaled-down version of a jeep. It looked very fierce, but because it was so small, it felt inexplicably cute.
"how about this?"
"Well, I have a discerning eye!"
Yao Yuan nodded and said: "Suzuki Jimny, although it may look small, is a serious four-wheel-drive off-road vehicle. The price/performance ratio is quite high. If there is any flaw, it is that it is not suitable for girls to drive."
"What I said is the same as what I didn't say!"
Yinyin rolled her eyes. She trusted Yao Yuan very much. If he was really suitable, he would definitely recommend him to her.
After wandering around and returning to the Mazda booth, Yao Yuan finally recommended the Mazda 6. After all, it is considered a classic.
So, the final choice was made.
It was already noon when they left the auto show. The two had a meal. Yao Yuan sent her back and ran to Zhongguancun.
There is a building called "Boyan Building" here, with Beihang University in the background. It is now the headquarters of Jinshan Company - Lei Jun lived in seclusion here.
Lei Jun joined Kingsoft at the age of 22 and is now the president.
He sold Joyo.com and got at least 300 million in cash. He realized the freedom to play monkey early, but next year he will resign as president and start a career as an angel investor.
Kingsoft’s three most famous products: PS, Kingsoft PowerWord, and Swordsman Love.
"Sword III" survives until 2022 and is still very popular. It's not that the game is so good, but that its peers are too far ahead.
Yao Yuan's arrival caused the employees to whisper, and all kinds of inquiring eyes followed him, and they followed him to the office.
room. In fact, he made an appointment with Lei Jun.
"Sit down, have you eaten?"
"I just finished eating and went to look at cars with Yinyin. I had to go to the car show and it was crowded."
Now that the two are friends, Yao Yuan is much more casual. Lei Jun made tea for him and said in his unique Mandarin: "If you go to the south, there will be a lot of noise. People all over the country know that you are going to make a mobile phone."
”…
"Shout out if it succeeds or not. The momentum cannot be weak. This is called the sense of atmosphere."
"Do you need a sense of atmosphere to make a mobile phone?"
"Of course, it's like niyerl's press conference. Aren't you there? Those things Bai Yongxiang talked about, such as entrepreneurial history, mental journey, feelings. To make a product, you must have a story, and the story is the sense of atmosphere."
Yao Yuan chatted for a while and explained the purpose of his visit: "This time I want to ask you to introduce me to a few technical big guys.
"Do you do mobile phones?"
"Yes, you are more familiar with it than me."
"..."
Lei Jun thought for a moment, wrote down a few names, and said, "I can only try to get acquainted with each other, but I'm not sure whether it will work out."
"Of course, let's talk about it ourselves."
Yao Yuan took a look at the top two on the list: Lin Bin from Google China Engineering Research Institute and Huang Jiangji from Microsoft China Engineering Research Institute.
Oh, he is indeed a boss.
Lin Bin will still be an important minister of Xiaomi in the future!
Historically, Lei Jun liked the M8 very much and wanted to invest in Meizu. He also introduced Lin Bin to Huang Zhang and persuaded Huang Zhang to give him 5% of his shares, but Huang Zhang refused.
Lei Jun did it on his own, recruited Lin Bin to join him, and founded Xiaomi
At the moment Lei Jun is still living in seclusion and has not yet developed an interest in mobile phones - Yao Yuan can't help but feel like the flapping of butterfly wings.
How about simply recruiting Lei Jun to join the team?
This idea suddenly came to him, but he thought it was too early. He would wait and see what happened later.
