My Age of Investment

"What? Are you going to open an online store?"

At the board of directors, Principal John thought he had heard it wrong and asked again.

Andrew crossed Erlang's legs and behaved very calmly.

Xia Jingxing nodded, "Yes, Mr. Hennessy, we just want to open an online store."

The puppy and the babes also followed and nodded, with a determined look.

Old John spread his hands, "Okay! Children, isn't Facebook operating well? Why did you think of opening an online store again?

Can anyone tell me what's going on here? "

In the last sentence, you can hear old John's anger.

It was the first time in the six months since they had known Old Man John that the gentle and elegant principal made such a fuss.

Old John is really angry. In his opinion, leaving the increasingly prosperous social networking sites and tossing online stores is a sign of not doing a proper job, and it is a way of self-destruction.

European and American management companies have always liked to stick to one direction, go deeper, and climb to the highest peak, and do not like diversified operations.

Xia Jingxing understood the meaning of old man John, and did not panic at all, and replied calmly, "Mr. Hennessy, you misunderstood what we meant."

Old John looked at Xia Jingxing and asked in a restrained tone, "Then tell me, why did you misunderstand you."

"First of all, the online store is just a marketing tool for us. Our main business is social networking sites. The online store is just responsible for a few interns, and it won't involve us too much energy."

Hearing this, Old John's expression turned slightly, "Aren't you selling things online?"

"Yes and no."

Xia Jingxing tried his best to explain the marketing strategy to Old John in short language.

After listening, Old John finally understood, touched the top of his slightly bald head, and said embarrassedly, "Sorry, I misunderstood you."

Naturally, Xia Jingxing would not hold on and said with a smile, "Everyone is for the company, I understand."

Old John also went down the steps and began to ask about the online store and how he could help.

"It may be necessary to spend 200,000 yuan in the early stage to purchase a batch of goods as gifts to give to the heads of the daily newspapers, broadcasters and other associations of various universities."

Xia Jingxing added, "Of course this gift is not for nothing. In exchange, we must get a chance to expose on campus."

Andrew smiled and pointed at Xia Jingxing, "You, you, I know that I never do business at a loss."

"For Facebook, this is not a small amount of money. Are you sure you will get the intended effect?"

Old John is looking at things from the perspective of a small company like Facebook.

As for himself, he certainly doesn't care much about this small amount of money.

The main reason is that Facebook is spending the money and not having the success it expected.

At that time, it is not a good thing whether the company's development suffers a setback, or even fails or goes bankrupt, or asks him to make additional investments.

"There is definitely no certainty of 100%, and 70% to 80% is still there."

Xia Jingxing did not talk too much, because that would only appear too fake.

There is no one hundred percent certainty about anything in the world.

"Then you have to think about it clearly, do more research, and make the plan more comprehensive."

Old John doesn't have much opinion, he just needs to express his own meaning.

"Um!"

Xia Jingxing nodded, "The investigation and the plan will definitely be done. We will never fight an unprepared battle, so you can rest assured."

"Mr. Andrew, you speak too, without saying a word."

Xia Jingxing looked at Andrew who was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai. When he talked to this fat fat man, his tone was much more casual, and he didn't need to be as restrained as talking to old John.

"I have no opinion, open, open now, do you need help? Andrew Law Firm,

24 hours for your dedicated service. "

As soon as Andrew spoke, the slightly serious boardroom immediately burst into laughter.

Even old John laughed, and after being in contact with him for a long time, he also knew that Andrew, a lawyer, was not serious.

What's more nonsense is that the other party is not a partner of a large law firm at all, but a lawyer of a small law firm, and is the only lawyer!

He is now a little suspicious. When the angel investment negotiated, he was deceived by the partnership between Daeron and this not-so-serious lawyer.

But now that it's over, there's no point in pursuing it any further.

As long as Facebook grows well, these side effects can be ignored.

"There is really something that needs your help. We want to place an order with a Chinese manufacturer. You have to help review the contract."

Andrew waved his hand, "No problem, it's on me."

Xia Jingxing glanced around the crowd, "If you have no objection, then the resolution of the board of directors will be passed, and we will hurry up and open the online store as soon as possible."

"it is good!"

"pass!"

...

Christina, as the secretary of the meeting, sat by the side and recorded the content of the board of directors and the final resolutions.

These things are essential, and there is no full-time secretary, so she will bear it.

Wang Youfu, in his 40s, is a small private owner in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. He runs a small factory and has one or two hundred employees, specializing in OEM and OEM clothing.

With a lively mind, he belongs to the group of people who got rich first, and he also certified the 1688 website in a fashionable manner.

After joining 1688, he did taste some sweetness and received several foreign orders.

In fact, at first he was reluctant to join 1688.

In the eyes of their generation of entrepreneurs who were born in the rough, can they sell things online? Anyone dare to buy?

Isn't this bullshit?

Later, the young man who claimed to be the Chinese supplier of Ahri approached him again and again.

Saying that China has joined the WTO, foreign trade will surely usher in prosperity.

These small Chinese manufacturers can use this "China Supplier" member product to promote to the world on Ali Baba's website and receive foreign trade orders.

He saw that the young man was sloppy and sloppy, but his eyes were full of determination.

It reminded him of his younger self.

The most important thing is that the dog raised in the factory bit the family.

I don't know if it was sympathy or moved by the other party, so he gave the other party a chance.

Unexpectedly, I can actually receive business online.

This time, his attitude took a 360-degree turn.

I often call the salesman called "Xiaogan" to ask if the other party has any suitable orders, and give priority to the old brother.

Originally, people were begging him, but now it has become him begging others.

Who is this to reason with?

But their generation has suffered, how much face is worth? Order is king.

Today, he took out his mobile phone again, dialed Xiaogan's number, and opened the daily line to ask, "Xiaogan, do you have an order today?"

Gan Jiawei is considered convinced, this old man is even more dedicated than the iron army among them.

This is to learn from each other.

"Brother Wang, don't worry, I'll show you everything. If you have an order, I promise to contact you as soon as possible."

Gan Jiawei, who was eating bread and drinking mineral water in a rural field in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, replied with a smile.

After comforting Boss Wang, Gan Jiawei looked back at the rural factory behind him, sighed, and clenched the briefcase in his hand tightly.

He shook his head, not even remembering how many times he had come, but he still couldn't convince these stubborn old men.

There is also a saying among the small township bosses in the Yangtze River Delta: fire, theft, and raccoon!

Thirty years of Hedong, thirty years of Hexi, don't bully the poor!

After complaining in his heart, he stopped a motorcycle on the side of the road, rushed to the station in the town, and then took the long-distance bus back to Lin'an.

As soon as he arrived at the company, the supervisor called him aside, handed him a document, and exhorted, "This is an order from the customer service department from California, USA, 100,000 T-shirts, you are responsible for following up."

"Okay, no problem, leave it to me!"

Gan Jiawei, who has been running around all day, is still alive and well, and his eyes are green when he hears the order.

After simply reading the document, he immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed Wang Youfu's number.

"Brother Wang, come to live, big live!"
