rebirth of cataclysm

When Hu Mingchen and Guan Yanhe walked past the previous ASUS store carrying the laptop, the arrogant saleswoman looked at Hu Mingchen with shock on her face.

In order to bring it back easily, Hu Mingchen didn't even ask for the box of the computer, but packed it in the computer and took it away. After several haggling, the S5 was finally sold for 14,600 yuan. Even if Hu Mingchen wanted to issue an invoice, that

The male salesperson also asked the company to help him cut off 1,200 yuan.

After being shocked, the saleswoman felt a little regretful. She had missed out on a good business and hundreds of dollars in commission.

Of course Hu Mingchen didn't mean to show off in front of her. Hu Mingchen wasn't that bored yet. The key was to leave the mall and pass by there.

After wandering around for two days, Hu Mingchen called Ma Jiahao.

Although Hu Mingchen and the others only hold 25% of the shares in Penguin Technology, they are actually the major shareholders, and their shares are no less than those held by Ma Jiahao. Therefore, when I received a call from Hu Mingchen and heard that others were

In Pengcheng, Ma Jiahao couldn't wait to see him immediately.

"I'm outside the customs. Otherwise, I'll come see you."

"How can you? No matter where you are, just tell me an address and I will come right away."

Ma Jiahao had a profound influence on Hu Mingchen. He had never met such an investor before. At first, Ma Jiahao thought that his company was only worth one million, and he was willing to sell it for one million. Who knew that Hu Mingchen actually gave him

It was valued at 100 million, and 20 million was invested, requiring only 25% of the company's shares.

It can be said that without Hu Mingchen, there would be no continued existence, development and growth of Penguin Technology. It was Hu Mingchen who helped the company overcome the life and death crisis during their most difficult and difficult time. It is precisely with the support of the 20 million yuan that the company can

The business can be optimized and there is room to find new investors to join.

Therefore, even though Hu Mingchen is young, he is indeed the person Ma Jiahao respects and is most grateful to. In Ma Jiahao's heart, Hu Mingchen can be said to be the founder of this company. If it weren't for Hu Mingchen's words of encouragement that stunned him, he would have been

Ma Jiahao will not continue to work hard with great ambitions, and vows to build Penguin Technology into a world-class Internet company.

Although there is still a long way to go before that ambitious goal, Ma Jiahao has already seen the light.

After Hu Mingchen told Ma Jiahao the address of the hotel where he was staying, half an hour later, Ma Jiahao personally drove to Hu Mingchen's room at Century Hotel.

"Master Hu, you came to Pengcheng and you didn't say anything to me. I heard that you have been here for a few days. You really shouldn't have done it." As soon as he entered the door, Ma Jiahao blamed Hu Mingchen intimately.

"Isn't this just to let you celebrate the Chinese New Year in a relaxed way? Besides, I had other things to talk about in the past two days, so come and sit here."

After Hu Mingchen greeted Ma Jiahao to sit down, he poured him a glass of water and placed it in front of him.

"Why, judging from your posture, you seem to be from the company and not from home. Is it possible that you don't have a holiday during the Chinese New Year?" Hu Mingchen saw Ma Jiahao in a suit and leather shoes, so he made this guess.

"It's a holiday, how can we not have a holiday? If we don't have a holiday during the Chinese New Year, the employees will be in chaos. However, our company's business exists 24 hours a day, and the company has to have people staying behind, so several of our management and some

Employees who work at home are on duty at the company. Today it is my turn to be on duty." Ma Jiahao explained, "I just heard you say that you talked about other things. Is it possible that you have other investments in Pengcheng?"

Hu Mingchen and others were able to invest in Penguin Technology, and they only spent 20 million at once, so it is normal for them to invest in other investments.

"Well, there is another electronics factory here, Bloomberg Electronics Co., Ltd. This time I came here to see the situation of this company and chat with you by the way." Hu Mingchen nodded.

"Since you are the one investing, I believe this company will develop well." Ma Jiahao praised Hu Mingchen.

"Haha, it's not bad. The business is good and the profits are about to be met. However, the company's development direction is a bit biased, so I will communicate and hope that the management can reverse the company's development direction to the right path." Hu Mingchen said vaguely.

"Oh, if that's the case, then you should take the opportunity to check our Penguin Technology's pulse. You are the company's major shareholder, so you can't ignore it."

"Haha, Penguin Technology has developed very well under your leadership. Why do you need me to check your pulse? I heard that the company has stopped losing money." Hu Mingchen said with a smile.

"After two consecutive rounds of financing, the company has indeed stabilized, but there are still some shortcomings in terms of profitability. Currently, the number of users of the company's products has reached 100 million, and the number of real-time online users has exceeded 2 million. By the way, you can

Evaluate, how much is the company currently worth?" Ma Jiahao attaches great importance to Hu Mingchen's views on the company.

"Haha, are you unaware?" Hu Mingchen asked with a smile.

"Hehe, what I said is not as accurate as yours. Maybe...it's worth 700-800 million now, right?" Ma Jiahao said with a simple smile.

A well-known Internet CEO, if people see him smiling like this, their jaws will probably drop.

"You are too modest. Didn't you raise another 45 million US dollars? That's several hundred million dollars. How can the company be worth just that little? It has to be over one billion anyway, and the number of customers exceeds 100 million.

Two to three billion is indispensable." Hu Mingchen said casually while sitting on the sofa.

"Are there really so many?" Ma Jiahao was surprised again.

In Ma Jiahao's mind, the current value of the company should be between 1 billion and 1.5 billion, but Hu Mingchen doubled this number.

"Of course, the most important thing for Penguin Technology now is to find a good profit path. As long as this problem is solved, the value of the company will increase exponentially. There is no doubt about this." Hu Mingchen nodded seriously.

road.

Hu Mingchen was not joking in the first place, and when it came to serious matters, he was even less likely to joke.

"This is a headache for us too. Do you have any good suggestions for this? Stop saying you don't understand. I know whether you understand or not. There is no one who understands better than you in the Internet industry." Seeing Hu Mingchen, he had to be humble again.

After a while, Ma Jiahao said hurriedly.

"Hahaha, you, you, aren't you trying to rush the ducks to the shelves? To tell you the truth, I don't have a computer that belongs to me so far. But...since we have talked about this issue, let's

We can just communicate." Hu Mingchen said with a smile.

"You say it, I'm all ears." Ma Jiahao was not pretending to talk, he actually took out a pen from his body and took the hotel's letterhead, intending to take notes.

"Currently profitable, our company can develop a virtual currency based on an instant messaging tool."

"Virtual currency?"

"Well, customers can recharge to buy points, and these points can be consumed, account. Ordinary accounts don't require money, accounts require investment. For example, the decoration of the avatar, such as the update and expansion of the background management content, etc. Anyway,

People spend money and give them some special functions. In this case, if one-tenth of the 100 million users are willing to recharge, the profits will be considerable." Hu Mingchen said based on his own experience.

Hu Mingchen once spent money to buy a yellow diamond so that his number would be different from others. At that time, many young people spent some money on it.

"This is a really good idea. Yes, this direction is really good." Ma Jiahao said excitedly, "Say, you go on."

"You really want to drain me dry."

"You are currently the largest shareholder of the company. It seems unjustifiable that you do not contribute to the company's profits." Ma Jiahao decided to rely on Hu Mingchen.

"You're being cruel, okay, I'll just think it's for myself. Secondly, of course, it's advertising. I know you've introduced the advertising model, but I think it's still quite simple. There's a lot of room for in-depth research. I think

The company can find more companies to cooperate with and use communication companies as a carrier. Of course, it cannot be too widespread, otherwise users will be disgusted. This level must be grasped." Now that the chat has started, Hu Mingchen will not

Maybe it's hidden.

Since he called Ma Jiahao, Hu Mingchen deliberately wanted to have a good chat with him about this matter so that Penguin Technology would take as few detours as possible.

As Hu Mingchen said, he is doing it for others, but it is also for himself. The better the company develops, the more valuable the shares Hu Mingchen holds will be.

"Well, we have thought about this issue and are making relevant plans and making technical preparations." Ma Jiahao nodded while recording.

If Ma Jiahao and the others couldn't even think of this, then how could they create new situations one after another.

Even if what Hu Mingchen and Ma Jiahao said was just to point out a direction, Hu Mingchen didn't need to worry about how to actually implement it. He really didn't understand the technical aspect.

"The third thing is that in the future, we can introduce computer games. The number of our customers is so large, they are the best assets. Once the customer's stickiness increases, the company's products become a necessary part of their lives.

Then after the company introduces games, they will naturally become game players. Games are addictive, and when the time comes, the expenses in this area will be greater, and accordingly, the company's profitability will be extraordinary..."

Ma Jiahao kept recording. Now he really felt that Hu Mingchen showed up too timely. The idea he came up with was exactly what the company urgently needed, but he had not yet thought clearly about it.

After Hu Mingchen's advice, Ma Jiahao felt a sudden enlightenment. He believed that Hu Mingchen's proposal could be realized as long as he only needed to overcome some technical problems. In the near future, Penguin Technology will become a huge profit

technology companies.
