Reinventing the Millennium

Chapter 180 Vitality (two in one)

On June 13th, the weather was clear in Shanghai.

Xu Xin, who flew from Beijing to Hongqiao Airport, got into the luxury car picked up by Capital Today and chatted with Wang Fengyi, deputy general manager of Shenxin Technology Innovation, about interesting investment stories in the industry.

Capital Today has been established for a few years, and Shenxin Technology was established just last year. However, the domestic investment circle is not large. Xu Xin and Wang Fengyi have met several times. This time they came to Shencheng to take advantage of the opportunity of investing in a project and let each other do this. Landlord friendship.

However, the first thing I did when I arrived in Shanghai today was not the cooperation between the two companies, but to meet with Fang Zhuo, another young president who had been missing since returning to Shanghai from the capital.

"Mr. Wang, please don't tell Fang Zhuo in advance, I'm just going to make a surprise attack on him." Xu Xin told Wang Fengyi after specifying the destination of the trip.

Wang Fengyi burst into laughter: "Mr. Xu, I'm afraid he has been raided enough recently. Are you here to call for punishment?"

"No, I've never seen a boss like this. He just signed a contract and got paid, but he just slapped his ass and ran away." Xu Xin shook his head repeatedly, "I still have to chase after him to deliver the money. That’s unreasonable!”

Wang Fengyi laughed again, and then gave up the idea of ​​informing Fang Zhuo.

Halfway through the car, he called to confirm that Iban was at the company, and the two of them sped up to Plaza 66.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the president of Capital Today and the deputy general manager of Shenxin Science and Technology stepped out of the elevator and stood on the 23rd floor.

Directly opposite the elevator door are the logos of the two companies.

Yike goes to the left, registration goes to the right.

The font of the former is seal script, while the font of the latter is very straight.

"Mr. Wang, have you ever considered voting for Yike? It has nothing to do with the program. I am personally quite optimistic about this project." Xu Xin looked at the direction, turned to the right, and said as he walked.

"Haha, I'm not in a hurry, and I think he's not in a hurry either. I'll support him again when Yike is about to get the first round of financing." Wang Fengyi said this. In fact, because the two stages of acquiring Penguin have not been completed yet, he took the lead. Investment projects within the unit must be verified before proceeding.

Moreover, Shenxin is planning to launch a second round of investment within the year, so it will definitely follow the investment.

Xu Xin nodded: "Well, let me take a look at the registration website. I just want to take advantage of Yike's contract to see if I can join in the excitement of the second round here."

Wang Fengyi smiled and said nothing, feeling that Mr. Xiao Fang might not have time to consider this matter now.

The pace of the two leaders was slightly hindered at the front desk, but Wang Fengyi, who had been here twice, successfully scanned his face. When they went to press the intercom number at the front desk, they quickened their pace and went straight to the president's office.

Since he was planning to launch a surprise attack, he was naturally curious about the young president's true state at this time.

Boom, boom.

With only two knocks, Wang Fengyi opened the door without even waiting for the other party to answer.

At this time, the phone in the office rang.

Fang Zhuo stood behind his desk and raised his head in shock, looking at the uninvited guest.

The two uninvited guests were also shocked to see President Fang's actions. He was actually splashing ink?

"Mr. Xu? Brother Wang, why didn't you say hello when you came?" Fang Zhuo finished the last stroke and welcomed in confusion, "Sit down, sit down, did you meet at the door?"

"Just in time, I just made a pot of tea, and a colleague brought it from the ravine."

Fang Zhuo came over to entertain the two of them.

"It's Mr. Xu who I picked up at the airport. We have a project to cooperate on. I'll come to your place to have a look as soon as we get in the car." Wang Fengyi explained.

Xu Xin walked to the desk with great interest and joked: "The enemies have all attacked the city, but Mr. Fang, you are still writing. You are really calming them down."

She turned slightly and saw a line on the rice paper, "There is no wind, rain, and no mercy." She immediately felt even more surprised.

The calligraphy is actually pretty good.

Moreover, what a person wrote casually in the office may reflect his state of mind, but it turned out to be such a sentence.

"I haven't written for a long time, I feel rusty." Fang Zhuo replied nonchalantly, "The enemy is coming to the city, and I can't dedicate it to the city, so I can only cultivate my sentiments by knocking chess pieces and falling lanterns."

He greeted again: "Drink tea, drink tea, taste this tea."

Wang Fengyi also glanced at the rice paper on the table, then sat down on the sofa and said with a smile: "Okay, I feel relieved when I see you have such a leisurely attitude."

"What can I do if I don't worry? Can I still get the money back?" Fang Zhuo said with a hint of meaning.

Wang Fengyi said with a smile: "Isn't this because I'm afraid that if I don't handle it well, I'll scare away a God of Wealth like Mr. Xu who comes to visit me?"

"Hey, Mr. Xu, how are my calligraphy, please give me some advice." Fang Zhuo saw Xu Xin still reading and thought she was quite accomplished at it.

Xu Xin shook his head: "I don't know how, but my dad likes to practice when he has nothing to do. I saw that what he wrote was not as good as yours. Mr. Fang really surprised me. Such an energetic person on the stage actually wrote such a good hand." Good calligraphy."

Fang Zhuo said modestly: "It's been a long time since I've practiced, and there's still a lot of room for improvement. There haven't been many things going on in the company these past two days, so I'll write down what I feel."

Xu Xin then sat down and praised: "I thought Mr. Fang was in urgent need here, but I didn't expect that Mr. Fang was not very worried. It seems that I can take a good look at the development of registration network and innovative enterprises on the Internet for our Capital Today today. .”

"When you run a business, how can you not encounter competition, but you can't just let the wind come and rain." Fang Zhuo returned to his desk and sat down, while he folded a piece of rice paper and wrote on it with the words "The cannon is on, let's blast his mother." Pressed down.

Xu Xin admired Fang Zhuo's character very much. She took out a stack of contracts from her bag and said business with a smile: "Mr. Fang, there is no news about you from Shanghai this time. We and IDG are waiting to pay Yike. "

"IDG is a big company with a big business, but our capital today is small. We are afraid that we may not catch up with a good project after finally encountering it."

"Hey, I even brought the draft contract."

Fang Zhuo felt Xu Xin's sincerity and apologized: "It's all my fault that I'm busy with the registration network. Yesterday I was still discussing with the product manager of Yike to finalize the angel round in the near future. Mr. Xu, I'm really troubling you."

Wang Fengyi, who was next to him, interrupted: "Don't be polite, you two. It's time to sign and pay."

Fang Zhuo smiled, rang the intercom and called administrative assistant Yuan Zhen over, and asked her to take the contract to the legal department of the cooperating law firm for routine review.

Then, he invited: "Mr. Xu, Brother Wang, you are here. Let's go to Yike next door. It happens to be lively there today."

Xu Xin agreed.

Wang Fengyi said dissatisfied: "You wait until I finish drinking this cup of tea."

Fang Zhuo smiled and chatted with Xu Xin about the recording of the Beijing program.

Although the "Win in China" competition has come to an end, the TV broadcast has just reached the third day of the top 12 business competition.

In the two days since he responded, he also received relevant greetings from his family and colleagues.

In particular, my sister Zhao Suqi couldn't help laughing when she recounted Xu Huaizhe's trance-like performance in the business war the next day on the phone - "Brother, you are so good at fooling me, you should go to the Spring Festival Gala."

Thanks to the popularity of Benshan's "Selling Kidnappings" at the end of January this year, the word "fooling" became popular in China.

Zhao Suqi feels that the word "fudge" is really appropriate to use here.

Fang Zhuo naturally scolded her for being short-sighted on the phone, saying that Xu Huaizhe was very grateful for his advice to him, and that online education and learning was definitely a career that could be done.

Yike Technology is located on the 23rd floor of the Hang Lung Office Building, separated by an elevator from the registration network.

Different from the slightly deserted office of Guahao.com, as soon as I walked into Yike, the sound of lively discussions came to my face.

"Mr. Fang is here."

"Hello, Mr. Fang!"

"Mr. Fang, come and try our new solution."

"The Full-speed version of USB 2.0 is still slow in actual use, but this is a hardware limitation. The High-speed it announced last year is not expected to be widely reflected in hardware next year."

Fang Zhuo received many enthusiastic greetings as soon as he showed up.

Except for the administrative positions here at Yike, Su Wei recruited them after she came to Shanghai. Almost everything related to products and technology is handled by product manager Xu Keden, and his channel is to hand over resources to teachers and students.

From the Lunar New Year to the middle of the Gregorian calendar year, an M1 project team like Xu Keden has become famous in Jiaotong University.

Although Xu Keden is just a lecturer, he is funny and has real work experience in a famous company. This time he found someone to make a music player with him and was very generous with money. The top students on campus happily joined the team.

This results in the company structure of Yike Technology being rather strange, with the product team being completely outsourced.

"Let me introduce to you, this is President Xu Xin of Today's Capital who invested in our Yike. This time he came to sign a contract." Fang Zhuo clapped his hands and didn't care what technical version some people came up to tell him. "General Manager Wang Fengyi next to him is just watching the excitement, so please leave him alone."

The office burst into laughter.

Everyone here knows Xu Xin from Capital Today, because she is a judge in "Win in China", and because the boss went to record the show, everyone was curious to see his performance in it.

Xu Xin felt Yi Keli's relaxed atmosphere almost immediately.

She glanced at the messy office layout again. Three whiteboards with various symbols were placed in three directions. Parts of different sizes were scattered on the desk, and boxes of different colors were placed on the floor.

The company is obviously founded by the same person, but it is only separated by a wall, but it is like two worlds!

"You guys keep busy and continue the discussion. I'll just wander around."

Fang Zhuo greeted all the young but energetic team members, and after taking two steps, he asked again: "Oh, yes, bring me the latest prototype, I will take it back and try it out."

A boy in a vest immediately unplugged the white prototype from the computer, handed it to the boss and complained: "Mr. Fang, why do you insist on white? Isn't green good? Can't blue?"

"I think white looks more technological. The other colors will be released later, so don't worry." Fang Zhuo explained with a smile, and casually stuffed the no longer named M1-X into his pocket.

He turned back to Xu Xin and Wang Fengyi, who were looking at the office, and said, "Let's go, Mr. Xu, Brother Wang, although it's a waste, I also have an office here."

Soon, both Xu Xin and Wang Fengyi saw a completely different CEO office.

There is a computer simply placed on the desk, and most of the other areas are filled with white music players, some longer and some wider.

The coffee table in the office is almost full of parts, with a row of small screens and a row of circuit boards.

"We won't drink tea here." Fang Zhuo said with a smile, "Yesterday I had a chat with the product manager about our players. It's a bit messy here and hasn't been cleaned up, but it's convenient to see different models of machines."

Xu Xin couldn't help but commented with some surprise: "Mr. Fang, your Yike looks really energetic!"

"They are all young people." Fang Zhuo said thoughtfully, "This is due to the product manager I found, but I did not expect the students to burst out with such strong energy, and we can do more of this model in the future. "

Xu Xin asked: "How long have you been making this player?"

"I started looking for people during the Spring Festival. I basically started to establish the idea in February, and then contacted global manufacturers to find matching parts." Fang Zhuo replied without hesitation, "It has been four months, but the final version of the machine has not yet been produced. Once it’s settled, there are still some minor issues that need to be resolved, but actually it’s not that we’re too short of money.”

"What we lack now is polishing the details."

Fang Zhuo reached out and picked up a player from the table and introduced: "The one in my hand is used to solve the problem of finding songs compared to the previous one. The improvement is that you can turn a page by pressing the button for a long time. Screen."

"An important feature of our product is its large storage capacity. In actual trials, it would be more time-consuming to find specific songs from the large storage capacity."

"It may sound like a small problem, but it has been bothering our team for a month and a half."

Fang Zhuo shook his head and put down the machine, regretting: "Actually, the 'long press' improvement of this model is not suitable for trial use in actual scenarios. After long pressing for three seconds, I can already click to the next point by myself. page."

Xu Xin listened very carefully. Different from the general talk on CCTV programs, these details were very touching.

She pretended to understand and asked a few questions, and got answers that sounded more touching.

Although I still don’t quite understand it, it’s obvious from the other side that it’s done with care.

Venture capital invests in people.

After chatting for a long time in Yi Ke's office, the three people returned to the next door.

The review of the contract cannot be completed today, and the arrival of investors means that dinner time has been booked in advance.

However, just as it was about to get off work, regional director Tang Shangde knocked on the door and came in.

"Brother Fang, Sister Yu has arrived in Yangcheng."

"Yang Wan will take the remaining people there next week."

"When does our Shencheng side start?"

Fang Zhuo waved his hand calmly: "Don't worry, let's continue to observe the Internet medical care. The people in Yangcheng haven't replied yet. We'll talk about these things tomorrow."

Tang Shangde saw that his boss had no intention of taking him to dinner, so he reported angrily before going out.

Wang Fengyi asked curiously: "You are going to the Yangcheng market? Isn't there competition from Shencheng? Why did you change the gun?"

"Yes, there is competition in Shencheng, so we can let the leaders there also see that Internet medical care and the registration network can coexist peacefully, and the same can be done in Yangcheng." Fang Zhuo made nonsense, but he actually meant please Zheng Danrui helped.

Wang Fengyi didn't believe this either, so he curled his lips and laughed twice.

"Mr. Fang, do you still want to fight back? I think the guy just now was just waiting to break the cup as a sign of victory." Xu Xin asked.

"Well, learn from your opponent." Fang Zhuo replied modestly.
