Reinventing the Millennium

After flying back to Shanghai non-stop from France, the first person Fang Zhuo met at the Yike President Office was Xiong Xiaoge.

Faced with the vague slander from his old friend, he just added a cup of tea to the other party and talked about this different treatment.

Xiong Xiaoge didn't accept this trick: "Mr. Fang, you don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything. Moreover, you have to understand that I have been waiting in your office for a long time out of boredom."

"If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything, why don't you, old Xiong, find someone else if you have the ability and ability?" Fang Zhuo smiled and said to his friend Nikon.

As a shareholder of Bingxin, Xiong Xiaoge is very aware of Bingxin's restrictions and the damage to its long-term interests.

But regardless of his personal relationship with Mr. Fang, as long as Bingxin is listed on the market, IDG will be able to withdraw sooner or later, which has little to do with this "long-term interest".

Over the years, one thing after another, he and IDG have become very interesting.

After listening to Mr. Fang's remarks, Xiong Xiaoge shook his head and said, "I'm afraid what you are talking about is difficult. Although lithography machines are important, the market is only so big. It is unlikely that Nikon will spin off this business and seek to go public. What's more, it already lags behind ASML."

"We are not trying to get things done." Fang Zhuo discussed, "You have also seen the great amount of counterfeiting by Japanese companies this year. Nikon's photolithography machine can be sure that some of the bubbles are blown out. I leave it to you in the middle. Isn’t it easy to operate?”

Xiong Xiaoge asked directly: "What do you mean?"

Fang Zhuo smiled and asked, "What do you mean?"

Xiong Xiaoge said without hesitation: "You mean to drum up momentum, go with the trend, backhand, criticize publicly, and then promote reforms or layoffs?"

Fang Zhuo's face turned solemn: "It's broken, I'll let you learn something real!"

"These are too difficult." Xiong Xiaoge half-smiled, "Why don't you go to Wang Gou for this kind of thing?"

Fang Zhuo said seriously: "It is precisely because of the difficulty that I approached Mr. Xiong. Wang Fengyi, an ordinary investor in Shanghai, how can he compare to the internationally renowned head of IDG Group. "

"Okay, okay, you are worthy of Mr. Fang. When there is trouble, it is Brother Wang. Now it is Wang Fengyi, an ordinary investor." Xiong Xiaoge couldn't help but speak up for his colleagues, "I can't do this, you can't do it." Cherish the feathers, I will continue to mix in the future."

Fang Zhuo said disapprovingly: "It will be difficult for you to invest in Japan for the rest of your life. You are not allowed to do it alone. Besides, you are not allowed to do it alone."

Xiong Xiaoge became more energetic: "Who else are you looking for?"

"It's not who I'm looking for, it's who you're looking for. I went back to Tokyo last time and met Masayoshi Son from SoftBank. I saw him..." Fang Zhuo thought for a few seconds and couldn't find a suitable adjective. He only used his eyes to let Lao Xiong understand. , and then continued, "Anyway, how much you can harvest in the end depends on your ability, Mr. Xiong. Anyway, no matter how much, Bingxin expresses his gratitude."

SoftBank's investments are quite wild, and given the current sluggish and volatile background of Japanese companies, it shouldn't be difficult to make some news.

Xiong Xiaoge drank half a cup of tea and sighed: "You are a bit good and a bit bad."

Fang Zhuo asked with interest: "How do you say it?"

"One bad thing is that you do things by any means." Xiong Xiaoge shook his head.

Fang Zhuo thought it was okay.

Xiong Xiaoge drank the remaining half cup of tea and continued: "One good thing is that you should do whatever you want."

"It's all taken together." Fang Zhuo said with a smile, "Since Mr. Xiong said that, I would like to thank you in advance. Otherwise, it is the president of IDG who has no fear of difficulties at all."

Xiong Xiaoge stood up: "Originally it was quite difficult, but when I think about it carefully, I have known you for so long and you are indeed a bit darker. It seems that it is not that difficult."

Fang Zhuo nodded, only caring about the result: "Okay, don't rush and be patient. Slow things down and things will go smoothly. I look forward to Mr. Xiong's triumphant return."

Xiong Xiaoge looked at this person's expression, and his breath caught in his throat. After a few seconds, he shook his head and said, "Wait for me to go back and study it."

"I don't worry about you doing your work." Fang Zhuo took a sip of tea and asked, "Old Xiong, isn't the house more lively now than before?"

Seeing that he had been downgraded from "Mr. Xiong" to "Old Bear", Xiong Xiaoge lost his breath and smiled on his face: "It's lively. I didn't feel it before, but now most of the liveliness at home is quite good." Comfortable.”

He is a son of old age, and the reason why his workload has been reduced in recent years is because of his twin twins.

"I heard..." Xiong Xiaoge said this, hesitated, and asked a question, "I heard that Mr. Su..."

"The due date is at the end of the year." Fang Zhuo knew what he wanted to ask and didn't hide it.

Xiong Xiaoge immediately said congratulations sincerely. Some of these business tycoons got married in a low-key manner, and some were diamond kings and queens. Mr. Fang seemed normal in this regard, but it was too normal and abnormal.

He smiled and said, "Do you know if it's a boy or a girl? Are you mentally prepared to become a father?"

Fang Zhuo hesitated and said: "I haven't asked specifically. At least I know that I haven't asked specifically. They don't know privately. My mother said it's a boy, and I am fine."

"Then let him take over from you." Xiong Xiaoge said.

Fang Zhuo shook his head: "As you said, it is easy to encounter bad things when running a business. My child, I hope to learn more scientific knowledge in the future, and in a big way, I can contribute to the cause of mankind. If it is not that big, I can also contribute to the cause of mankind." It is better to contribute scientifically than to teach, and it is better than being involved in intrigues in the business world."

"You know how to intrigue." Xiong Xiaoge gave a thumbs up.

Fang Zhuo shook his head again: "I don't understand more and more."

Xiong Xiaoge praised: "A true master always has the heart of an apprentice."

He looked at the man in front of him with a somewhat imaginative expression, and joked: "I can imagine that as time goes by, your reputation will definitely become better. If you retire early, you may not be spotless."

"If your child is really engaged in business and encounters a problem that requires intrigue, seek help from God..."

Xiong Xiaoge squeezed her voice: "God, help me, let the person who knows the most about intrigues in the world help me... Then, you opened the door and walked in."

Fang Zhuo's face was expressionless. Seeing that Old Xiong was about to become active when talking about something other than the main topic, he urged: "You should be serious about the Nikon matter. If this matter can be completed, I will engrave your name on the ice core." On the factory wall.”

Xiong Xiaoge had to remind: "You said this to me once."

Fang Zhuo was stunned: "You told me?"

Xiong Xiaoge affirmed: "I said it!"

Fang Zhuo fell into thinking, but he really couldn't remember clearly.

"You can even draw a pie out of thin air twice, you are such a person." Xiong Xiaoge read the meaning of this man's words, "I can only believe two out of ten sentences."

"Forget it, let's not mention the past, just what I say now shall prevail." Fang Zhuo promised, "It's done, I'll write it myself."

Xiong Xiaoge shook his head slightly. The expired cake had no appeal.

Forget it, both are prosperous, IDG is Bingxin’s shareholder after all.

Xiong Xiaoge thought that he had been a shareholder for many years, whether it was ice core, Yike or medicine, as if he had to compare his longevity with Mr. Fang when he met him, so he couldn't help but give him a fierce look.

Fang Zhuo didn't notice Lao Xiong's sudden resentment. He packed up his things and said, "I have done everything I should and can do. What the ice core can become...all depends on it."

"This sentence seems to have no fighting spirit." Xiong Xiaoge commented.

"It's not that I have no fighting spirit, but it takes time to brew, leave it to Ice Core, leave it to time." Fang Zhuo thought about this trip abroad, thinking about Washington, New York, Silicon Valley, Dresden, Magde Fort and Crowler thought about returning to the first thing, which was to find someone to help Nikon, and felt a little emotional.

"I won't keep you for dinner. I have a small meeting later and will go back to eat tonight. If you are not in a hurry to return to the capital in the past two days, I will invite someone to eat together. I haven't seen Wang Fengyi for a while."

Xiong Xiaoge agreed. Since he came to Shanghai and agreed to help Bing Xin, he would confirm his ideas and methods and try to achieve the maximum results within his capabilities.

The small meeting Fang Zhuo mentioned was not about the company, but an online discussion with a multi-department working group.

Because ice cores are restricted, the country attaches great importance to it and directly mobilizes people to form a multi-department joint working group to help solve the difficulties encountered in the development of ice cores.

This didn't exist before, and it can probably be seen from a glimpse of the leopard.

Fang Zhuo first proposed the role that SMIC may play in the future. Because it is not advanced enough, SMIC is still very safe.

"That's no problem. If SMIC can buy it, then buy it for ice cores." Jia Bangjie, deputy leader of the working group, immediately agreed with this idea after hearing this.

Fang Zhuo laughed dumbly: "Jia Si, you are not the CEO of SMIC."

Jia Bangjie was transferred from the National Development and Reform Commission. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if I'm not the CEO. This will definitely work. 'Senior core, ice core, united branches'."

This statement has spread more and more widely with the SMIC equity turmoil incident.

"Well..." Fang Zhuo still wanted to speak up for SMIC, "At this time, it would be more natural for SMIC to say this."

Jia Bangjie said: "Mr. Fang, wake up. Zuo Lengchan said similar things before. Aren't you going to connect branches with different qi and connect branches with the same qi? Special circumstances, special treatment, critical situations, Mr. Fang, don't be soft-hearted." .”

In this situation, whatever is advantageous can come from it. If the energy is used in one place, other energy that can be used must also be used.

Fang Zhuo looked at the expressions of other participants on the screen and stopped discussing this topic.

Didn't you say that the boss was in a hurry? Why did you still have the heart to joke with yourself?

Meet the bears, have a meeting, go home.

After all, they had been flying for a long time. Fang Zhuo took a nap in the car returning home. When he got out of the car, he yawned and rubbed his eyes. The first thing he saw was the smiling Su Wei in the yard.

He rubbed his eyes again. Unlike when he left in May, Weiwei was now pregnant.

"President Fangda missed tens of billions of property and was restricted by business, so he had to come back in disgrace." Su Wei joked and stepped forward.

Fang Zhuo quickened his pace and said, "Slow down."

When he got closer, he observed Su Wei who was holding her waist, and said, "It doesn't seem so obvious when you watch it in the video."

"Really? No wonder I feel it's easier recently than before." Su Wei touched her belly and thought, "I looked in the mirror and didn't notice much change."

Fang Zhuo said repeatedly: "There have been changes, there have been changes. It's much better than when I went to the United States. Well, well, it looks like I have a bigger beer belly."

Su Wei was amused: "Okay, Mr. Fang's first comment after returning to China, I will write it down on my phone later."

Fang Zhuo helped her into the living room. Although it was 7 o'clock in the evening and the weather was still a bit hot in August, it was much cooler inside.

Both parents are at home, and as the family enters the process of adding new people, they have stopped other plans.

Fang Zhuo chatted for a while, talked about himself, and also talked about scientists today.

"By the way, have you read the recent report of Tesco?" Su Wei chatted with her for a while and then became eager to take action. Because of her pregnancy, she has rarely appeared in the company for more than a month. The overall strategy is left to the general office. discuss.

Fang Zhuo just didn't want to talk about work, so he turned to look at Weiwei's eyes and said helplessly: "I haven't watched it, but I know it's not bad."

"How do you know if you haven't read it? Is the description in the news reliable?" Su Wei criticized.

"Because the general office of Yike has verified the feasibility of the overall strategic decision-making mechanism, and Yike alone is doing this in China. Although you, Yigou, have just started doing this, the complexity of your business is not as high as that of Yike. It doesn't make sense." Fang Zhuo said the reason.

Su Wei thought about the company's situation and sighed slightly: "This president's office is really a bit... a bit disappointing."

In the past, power was held in hand. From the establishment of Tesco to the present, Su Wei has been the CEO, and has always taken the development of e-commerce business as her own responsibility. This sudden release has not gone wrong, as if...

It’s as if the meaning of work is somewhat misplaced.

"There are losses as well as gains. A good and correct mechanism should support us. The further we go, the more we should focus on the overall strategy." Fang Zhuo said with a smile.

Su Wei nodded, knowing the truth.

She did not mention the company, but instead mentioned her opponents in the past few months, and said with a smile: "Before, Suning had the same price online and offline, and it was promoted in the media for many days. As a result, at the beginning of the month, someone discovered that offline The prices of some electrical appliances have been secretly changed back, which is a bit of an uproar."

"Details don't matter, the huge offline network has become more and more a burden that can't be let go." Fang Zhuo only said this and immediately demanded, "During this period, I have been working every day since I opened my eyes. I'm home, so I won't talk anymore. .”

Su Wei blinked: "Then what do you want to say?"

"The moonlight is so beautiful, it's not too late." Fang Zhuo pointed to the recliner at the door of the living room and coaxed, "Tonight, I will only care about you and him."

Su Wei got up and walked to the door of the living room. She saw the moon in the sky and had a thought in her mind. It was really unaccustomed for a career man to not talk about his career.

Okay, let me coax you, and you will be back to your true self tomorrow.

As she thought this way, she gradually found the night and moonlight tonight charming. (End of chapter)
