Chapter 486 This is the capital (still 4000 words, thanks friends
After taking Yatou and Tongtong to learn the first few pictures step by step, it was getting late, and after coaxing them to sleep, Xia Zekai went to the study to do other things.
Just now, Liang Rubo sent him a message to chat on QQ about the progress of "Yi Travel".
"Zekai, it's getting late, you should go to bed early." Luo Xiyun told him after taking a bath.
After Xia Zekai heard his wife's cry, he said: "Okay, you go to bed first, I will go there when I finish my work."
"Well, good night!" Luo Xiyun went to rest.
Xia Zekai's eyes were still on the computer screen. This was the QQ chat interface. He had established a chat group with Zhang Yiming, Liang Rubo, Yang Bin, and Yu Shuping. At this time, several people were online. Liang Rubo said, "It's good to travel."
'Current progress.
"According to the current situation, the framework can be put up in another two months, but detailed maintenance will be required later, which will also take time." Liang Rubo sent a message.
Xia Zekai was editing information when another sentence appeared on the chat interface: "Brother Liang, it means that the product will not be released for about half a year. Is this what you mean?"
This is the message sent by Yu Shuping.
"Almost" the message sent by Liang Rubo.
Xia Zekai finally sent a complete message: "Is the money enough? When will the promotion start?"
"Currently, there are no big expenses, mainly rent and labor costs. The money in the early development stage is enough, but it will definitely not be enough in the later stage of promotion. The bosses will have to contribute more by then." Liang Rubo said.
He is already very familiar with this process. Whether it is the previous Kuxun or Jiujiu Fang, he has participated in it and even handled it.
Zhang Yiming said: "This progress is pretty good. The main reason is that there are currently no products in this area. We are crossing the river by feeling the stones. Many technical things are immature, and we have to spend a lot of time experimenting."
"Well, I'm not in a hurry. Just take my time. It's best to make it perfect in one go. Then we won't have to worry about spending money." After Xia Zekai finished sending the message, he found a grinning smile and sent it out.
.
Yang Bin stopped diving. He said: "When will we start promoting it?"
Liang Rubo had the most say. He said: "After the first phase is completed, we will conduct an internal test. If it passes the test, we will start promoting it. At that time, we will have to ask the big bosses to find a solution."
It’s easy to test this, and it’s not difficult to publicize it. It’s nothing more than throwing money at it, but by then you’ll need to bring in capital.
All 5 people in the group understand this.
Including Xia Zekai, he also understands that according to his current worth, it is not enough to support the promotion of Yixing in the later period. That is a market created by real money.
The most recent example is that in order to promote Meituan, Wang Xing made 600 million in just a few months. That was real money.
When "Yi Travel" comes out, you will still have to engage in various discounts.
Like customer subsidies and driver subsidies, otherwise the market has not yet been developed, and drunk driving is basically not checked these days. There are few customers using it, and drivers will definitely not be willing to use it.
The customer thinks back to me that I can drive myself, so why should I use your product?
So you have to spend money and make customers think, 'Oh, I saved a lot of money by using this thing.'
"It's normal. When capital comes in, it's time for us to start making money. I also thought that if the first round is close, I will cash out part of the market." Xia Zekai smiled again.
"Brother Xia is short of money?" Zhang Yiming sent a message.
Xia Zekai replied: "I'm not bragging. I don't lack money for anything. I still have five or six million I don't know how to spend."
"But I just want to sell 1 point of shares and try to cash out."
In his two lifetimes combined, he has never experienced the pleasure of cashing out his shares, and now he is always looking forward to it.
I understand, this is really bad taste.
When several other people saw his message, they didn't want to talk to him.
Yu Shuping suddenly sent a message: "Everyone, if I want to start my own business, what project would be better?"
After seeing his message, the group was silent for a while.
Yang Bin was the person closest to the truth. He looked at this message from his old friend and said nothing.
Zhang Yiming said: "Isn't Mr. Yu doing a good job on Weibo? Besides, there is a big boat like Sina supporting it. It's easy to enjoy the shade under the big tree. Why start your own business? It's too tiring."
"I think there are too many Internet projects now, and they can be seen everywhere, but there are also many failures." Liang Rubo said.
Xia Zekai looked at Yu Shuping's message quietly. He noticed something different from this sentence, so he sent a separate message to Yu Shuping: "Old Yu, something happened?"
Not to mention that Boss Xia is the most considerate, Yu Shuping felt warm in his heart after seeing the QQ message sent by Xia Zekai alone: "Well, something happened."
Yu Shuping thought over and over again and explained the matter simply without hiding it from Xia Zekai.
At this time, he recounted the incident without any emotion to avoid affecting Xia Zekai's judgment.
"So, this matter is actually a foregone conclusion?" Xia Zekai asked him.
Although Yu Shuping didn't want to admit it, he didn't have any blinders. He said: "It's almost the same. Mr. Chen came to me with the intention of conveying the wishes of the board of directors. No one can change the wishes of the board of directors."
"In the final analysis, it's money that is to blame." Xia Zekai curled his lips.
He said: "Lao Yu, let me tell you, this is not unusual. Your company has a precedent. Even Lao Wang was fired by your board of directors."
Speaking of this, Xia Zekai wanted to laugh. The founder of the company has been killed, what else can he say?
Yu Shuping became even more silent. He knew that what Xia Zekai said was a fact. It was once widely circulated in the Internet circle. This was a huge lesson and a shame.
"Old Yu, there is nothing wrong with starting a business. If you have the ability, connections, and resources, your probability of success is much greater than others. It just depends on whether you want to try it or not." Xia Zekai was very open-minded.
He said: "Well, if you have any new projects, we can talk about it alone. If you need money, I still have some spare money here, so I can invest some in you."
Yu Shuping was deeply moved when he saw these messages. He was very glad that he had met a friend like Xia Zekai.
"Okay, if you really want to start a business, I'll talk to you alone." After Yu Shuping finished speaking, he switched the chat interface to the chat group.
Yang Bin sent a message in the group: "Old Yu, let's see what happens. Wait a moment. Please be patient until things become clear."
He finally sent a message: "Everyone, it's getting late. This old man like me can't stand it any longer. You should all go to bed early."
Xia Zekai also closed the group chat interface. He was about to log out of his QQ account, turn off his phone and go to sleep, when the little penguin started flashing crazily again.
When I clicked on it, I saw it was a message from Zhang Yiming.
"Brother Xia, I was wrong just now. Why do I think something is wrong with Mr. Yu?"
"Well, something bad happened in the company, and I feel uncomfortable, so I'm thinking of moving away."
Zhang Yiming understood, he said nothing else, and finally said: "Brother Xia, good night!"
"Good night!"
…
Xia Zekai went to wash his face and groped his way back to the master bedroom. The three of them were fast asleep. Xia Zekai peed on Yatou and Tongtong. After finishing, he tucked a thin blanket for them and hugged his wife.
Fell asleep.
Her soft body makes her feel comfortable in her arms.
After an uneventful night, when Xia Zekai woke up the next morning, he felt that his right arm, which had been resting on his wife's pillow all night, began to feel numb.
But it's not a big problem, just shake it hard twice to activate the blood and it will be fine.
Luo Xiyun had already made breakfast. Xia Zekai saw that Yatou and Tongtong showed no signs of waking up, so he went out directly.
Luo Xiyun was putting dishes on the table. When she saw Xia Zekai coming out, she said, "Why didn't you sleep more? Were you busy very late last night?"
"It's okay, it didn't take long. We just started chatting about the development progress of 'Yixing'. Later, Lao Yu got a little worried, so we talked alone again." Xia Zekai told his wife directly.
Luo Xiyun didn't react, so she asked: "Who is Lao Yu?"
"Yu Shuping, you are the current editor-in-chief of Weibo. Don't you also use Weibo? You don't even know this?" Xia Zekai's eyes were full of contempt.
It's like using Taobao but not knowing Jack Ma, and using QQ but not knowing Ma Huateng. Xia Zekai knew everything, and he instantly felt a sense of inflated personality.
His wife taught him a lesson yesterday and he felt better.
Luo Xiyun looked at his bearish look and ignored him: "You are capable, you are great, you know a lot of people, okay, why don't you tell me that you also know Jack Ma and Ma Huateng!"
"Do you want to eat yet? If you don't, I'll throw away your portion."
This bitch can't speak properly.
In line with the principle of not starving himself, Xia Zekai stopped nagging and hurriedly went to wash up and sit down to eat.
During the meal, Xia Zekai completely told what happened to Yu Shuping.
After Luo Xiyun listened, she was particularly interested. She said: "There is such a thing, and the company's entrepreneurial boss has been driven away?"
Xia Zekai's bad mouth problem came back again. He said: "Daughter-in-law, what's going on here? There are still many things you haven't heard of."
Luo Xiyun rolled her eyes at him and was too lazy to speak.
Xia Zekai felt bored and told the whole story as if he was pouring beans out: "If Weibo is considering going public separately, it needs to find someone with more leadership to lead him away."
Luo Xiyun heard the voice-over and asked: "Do you also think that Yu Shuping does not have this ability?"
Xia Zekai smiled and shook his head: "Daughter-in-law, this is not a matter of ability, it is a matter of capital."
"They need to find someone obedient to take the helm."
Luo Xiyun seemed to understand, but she was not interested in this matter, so she didn't ask any more questions.
After finishing the meal, Luo Xiyun left with her satchel. As she was leaving, she said, "Zekai, I'll be back later tonight, so don't wait for me to eat."
"Hey, is there a place?" Xia Zekai asked casually.
"Well, the production target for the first half of the year has exceeded expectations. It is not a big problem to achieve the full-year target in the second half of the year. Mr. Qi wants to treat us." Luo Xiyun said.
Before I knew it, half of 2010 was already over.
Xia Zekai looked back and thought that he had been busy enough in the past six months.
He wondered if he should also invite the company's management to a meal?
"If you drink, call me and I will pick you up." Xia Zekai ordered.
On this occasion, it is inevitable to drink a glass of wine. If you don’t drink white wine, beer or red wine will do. If not, rice wine will become a dessert.
While he was clearing away the dishes, Yatou and Tongtong and the other two sisters began to compete with each other on how fast they could get dressed in the bedroom. This made Xia Zekai less worried.
Tongtong didn't let go this time and simply slipped her sister away three kilometers away.
When she jumped out of the bedroom to find her father to tie her hair, she whispered mysteriously: "Dad, my sister didn't even put on her pants. I'm so awesome."
"Yes, you are great, you are great at everything!" Xia Zekai sincerely praised their second child.
"whee"
After hearing this, Tongtong laughed directly.
After sending Yatou and Tongtong to the kindergarten, Xia Zekai turned around and wanted to leave. Their teacher, "Teacher Kaixin," called out to Xia Zekai: "Xia Jingya, dad, wait a moment."
"It's like this. Our kindergarten plans to organize the children to visit the Jicheng Science and Technology Museum in the near future. Does Xia Jingya's father have time to join us?" Teacher Kaixin asked.
Xia Zekai asked her: "When? I have to look at my arrangements."
Teacher Kaixin had already known about Xia Zekai's 'identity'. He was a person who was paid attention to by the top figures in the city government. His schedule was indeed very busy.
She said: "Our kindergarten is scheduled to be held on July 10, Saturday, so it will not delay parents' normal working hours."
"That's it, let me take a look. If I can't go, then let their mother go," Xia Zekai said.
The happy teacher nodded in agreement.
Anyone can go!
After going home and picking up the car, Xia Zekai went straight to the company.
After arriving at the company, he saw that engineering vehicles had begun to station in the open space in the southeast corner. This was the construction unit affiliated with the Acme Intelligent Factory Research Institute.
The mini factory is not big. If nothing unexpected happens, it can be completed in two or three months.
Xia Zekai saw an acquaintance, so he walked over and said, "Mr. Jiang, why did you come here in person?"
"Good morning, Boss Xia!" Jiang Honggang came again.
He said: "I happened to have something to do and had to go to Jicheng, so I stopped by and left in the afternoon."
What they said was right, leaving three points of leeway. If we leave in the afternoon, we can have a meal together at noon.
Xia Zekai is so smart. He understood immediately and said, "Okay, I'll treat you at noon. Let's drink less."
"Haha!" Jiang Hong just laughed. He likes to deal with people like Xia Zekai, who is very sophisticated in doing things.
