Chapter 586 Ten million is a trivial matter (October 2100
"Are you sure?" Guo Ying asked him.
Zhang San nodded: "I'm sure, otherwise with so many merchants settling in and the platform not charging a penny, it would be useless!"
As soon as Guo Ying thought about the truth of what she said, she was not as far-sighted as Zhang San in this regard, so she didn't argue and said: "Manager Zhang, tell the boss about the 'Double Eleven' promotion.
I'm going to Jicheng first, and the remaining new stores there are also preparing to open in the next two days."
"Go quickly." Zhang San said: "We have already missed one day of the National Day Golden Week, but we can't miss the remaining few days. Offline directly-operated stores are related to our company's strategic decisions and long-term
In development, no node must be left behind.”
…
In the capital city, the 'Yixing' office area has expanded from less than 100 square meters to more than 500 square meters, and the number of employees has also expanded from 6 at the beginning to more than 60, nearly 10 times the number of employees.
Increase, this is the confidence for the current development of 'Yixing'.
The team has grown.
Liang Rubo didn't take a break during this holiday. He has been working overtime non-stop.
During the first two days of the holiday, he had less than five hours of rest each day, and his eyes were bloodshot.
"Han Ke!" Liang Rubo shouted.
Han Ke hurriedly ran in from outside: "Mr. Liang, please call me."
"Well, how are you doing with the tasks given to you, and to what extent." Liang Rubo asked him.
Han Ke quickly said: "I have already contacted the hotel and conference venue. Mr. Liang, please check when you are free to go over and take a look. If possible, we will make a decision."
"Okay, tell me where it is?" Liang Rubo asked him.
This is the preparatory work for the B-round financing of ‘Yixing’.
Unlike the last internal capital increase in Series A, this round is mainly external. There will be a lot of capital coming by then, and all aspects must be prepared in advance. No one dares to be careless.
"The Golden Kelly Hotel, a five-star hotel near our company," Han Ke said.
When Liang Rubo arranged this job for him, he said not to worry about the money, but to do this job beautifully and make it appear that "Yi Chu" is a very capable company.
Although these few days have passed, the funds in Yixing's account will soon return to zero, but it doesn't matter. He, Zhang Yiming, and Brother Xia all have money in their hands. They temporarily borrowed part of it from them in the name of the company and returned the funds.
Once it's in place, just pay it back with interest.
They give interest, so what are you afraid of?
Liang Rubo knew about the 'Golden Kelly Hotel' and he was very satisfied and said: "Okay, after I'm done with today, I'll go over and have a look tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
This also means that the Series B financing of "Yixing" is about to begin.
But there is no point in delaying it any longer. After more than a week of delay, the company will have no money in its account.
Liang Rubo did a smart thing. He planned the employees' wages for September in advance and earmarked the money for it. Otherwise, the stall would not have the money to pay employees.
What a great company to do what they do!
…
Xia Zekai originally wanted to take advantage of the National Day holiday to rest for a few more days and spend time with his wife and children at home.
But when he received Zhang San's call, he had a hunch that he couldn't rest.
"Zhang San, what was Taobao's Double Eleven sales last year?" Xia Zekai really has no impression of this.
He remembered the years when the 'Double Eleven' shopping festival was the most famous, with hundreds of billions of transactions a day, but who was free to keep track of numbers?
Especially the numbers at the beginning of the ‘Double Eleven’ shopping festival.
Zhang San had already verified it in advance. He said: "Boss, last year's Double Eleven was the first time. The total revenue was 52 million. This year's event is even more intense than last year. In addition, this year's Double Eleven event was held more than a month in advance.
We have started preparing for promotion, and I believe this year’s total revenue will be much larger than last year.”
Xia Zekai didn't bother to complain about him. You don't need to say it. Later, the transaction volume exceeded one billion in a few seconds and tens of billions in a few minutes.
Although the "Double Eleven" shopping festival has been criticized a lot, it was indeed played with fire by Zhang Yong to a certain extent, and it also made Taobao a success.
"Get ready, let Sun Yanjun prepare the production plan and budget." Xia Zekai had a toothache, this was unplanned production.
After Zhang San hung up the phone, Xia Zekai sighed: "What an eventful time it has been!"
"What's wrong, if you are busy, just go and do it. I will watch them at home." Luo Xiyun said.
She has now officially submitted her resignation application, which is only half a month away. At this moment, her mentality is completely different from before, and she is completely relaxed.
Xia Zekai smiled slightly and said: "It's okay, it's just some chores, it won't take long."
Before he finished speaking, the cell phone he had just thrown on the coffee table rang again. When he touched it, he saw the name 'Liang Rubo' flashing on the screen.
Good guy, this is deliberately not letting him rest.
"Rubo, what's wrong?" Xia Zekai asked him.
Liang Rubo said directly without any ink: "Brother Xia, we plan to hold the B-round financing of 'Yixing' on Wednesday, October 13th. Please come back then."
No need to ask, Xia Zekai will definitely go.
"Are you all ready? Is the money enough?" Xia Zekai asked him, and then said: "If it's not enough, I will first transfer 10 million for emergency use."
Look at the tone of his words. If you have money, you will have confidence!
Ten million is just a small amount for emergencies at any time.
Liang Rubo breathed a huge sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "I am worried about how to tell Brother Xia about this. There is indeed no money in the company's account. I am thinking about Brother Xia, me, and Yiming.
All three of them will chip in, and when the funds are in place, they will repay the debt at an interest rate of 0.5%, which is higher than the bank's active interest rate."
After hearing what he said, Xia Zekai directly changed his statement: "Okay, let's pool together 5 million each. I guess there are too many places to spend money recently, and the money will not be enough."
This is the truth. In fact, after Xia Zekai heard Liang Rubo say that he would give 0.5% interest, he thought, "If you have money, everyone can earn it together."
He still has more than 30 million in spare money here, and Liang Rubo and Zhang Yiming also have more than 10 million in idle funds, and they don't know what to do. In this case, it's better for everyone to eat a wave of interest.
Although it's not much, it's not like that if you reap all the benefits yourself.
Liang Rubo heard what he said and knew that Xia Zekai agreed, so it would be easy to handle. He said: "Brother Xia, I'm going to call Yiming and tell him that after the financing money is in place, the debt will be paid."
.”
He finally said: "It will only take a month at most."
Xia Zekai did the math, and if he used this money for a month, he could earn more than 70,000 yuan.
When he hung up the phone, Luo Xiyun asked him: "Zekai, what's wrong?"
She also noticed that she couldn't be quiet today.
Xia Zekai smiled and said: "Yi Chuxing in Beijing is about to conduct Series B financing, but the company has no money now. Xiao Liang is raising money to tide over the current difficulties."
"Oh, then do you want to go to the capital again?" Luo Xiyun asked him.
Xia Zekai nodded: "I'm definitely going, but there's no rush for now. I'll leave on the 12th."
He planned to go there on the last day.
Luo Xiyun thought about it and said, "Let me see the situation. I will try my best to complete the resignation procedures as soon as possible."
"That's okay. If it's done in advance, you can go to the capital with me to see the city. It should be quite lively by then." Xia Zekai said.
