Ten Years Against the Current of Rebirth

"What's wrong?" Yan Chijuan had just opened the takeout box and saw that Xu Xing's face had darkened after he answered the phone, and he couldn't help but asked worriedly.

Xu Xing smiled and shook his head, saying only: "The wolf is coming."

After having lunch with Yan Chijuan, Xu Xing took her to the company.

When entering the elevator, Yan Chijuan watched the elevator floors go up one floor after another. He couldn't help but come to Xu Xing and carefully helped him straighten his collar and smooth out the wrinkles on his clothes, like a well-behaved boy.

Like a little daughter-in-law.

Xu Xing silently enjoyed this treatment, and after she helped him pack up, he hugged her before the elevator reached the seventh floor.

"Ah!" Yan Chiju exclaimed, and quickly complained and reminded, "I just helped you tidy it up, and now it's messed up again."

"Then learn your lesson next time, hug her first and then tidy her up." Xu Xing smiled and blew hot air into her ear and said, "I'm very busy in the afternoon, and I may have to work overtime in the evening, so I won't have time to spend time with you."

"It doesn't matter, work is important." Yan Chijiu shook his head, raised his face and smiled, "Besides, Junjiu Dress Up has come to an end, so I have to work hard and try to enter the test by the end of the month.

stage."

"Then come on." Xu Xing pinched her cheek and couldn't help teasing, "When the game comes out and you come out with a set of clothes, you can wear one and show me, okay?"

"The clothes in the game were all magically modified by Sister Niannian and the others. They probably don't exist in reality..." Yan Chijie lowered his head and whispered.

"Have you forgotten what my mother does?" Xu Xing laughed and said, "If the game develops well, some peripherals can be released in the future. The clothes inside will be ready-made peripheral products. When the time comes, contact my mother to open a new website.

We can definitely jointly operate the store, and we don’t have enough clothes yet.”

Yan Chijuan had never thought about this before. After hearing Xu Xing talk about Sun Wanhui, he immediately became concerned: "Didn't you say that your parents were discussing business with Aunt Pei? What happened next?"

"I heard from my uncle that after the two parties reached a cooperation, Aunt Pei invested 5 million, and my dad officially resigned and joined their foundry as the deputy manager of the production department." Xu Xing shrugged, quite satisfied with the result.

.

When Xu Jian left the original factory this time, he also stayed away from the fire that occurred not long after.

Although Xu Xing was not sure whether the fire would happen again after the world line changed, but adhering to the principle of not fearing ten thousand, but fearing the worst, Xu Xing still asked his uncle Xu Yi to encourage Xu Jian to resign and leave.

This time, Pei Qinglan's foundry was there to help Xu Jian, and the remuneration was pretty good. He was said to be given the position of deputy manager of the production department, the same as the original factory.

However, the production lines that cooperate with Sun Wanhui's company will be personally managed by Xu Jianlai.

You know, after Pei Qinglan invested 500, Sun Wanhui's clothing company can fully increase its efforts to develop the market, and the order demand is not at the same level as before.

In addition, the foundry itself has just resumed production, and according to the needs of Sun Wanhui Company, about half of the basic production lines must be supplied to the customized orders here.

The remaining half of the orders are managed by the original production manager.

If you look at it this way, Xu Jian's actual power is actually no lower than that of the production department manager.

If Sun Wanhui's company's orders expand as the business grows in the future, Xu Jian's power will further increase.

For Pei Qinglan, the foundry was just a small investment for her. Because she was able to make good friends with Xu Xing's parents this time, she got more involved.

For factory director Yan Hongzhi, the opinion of Pei Qinglan, the actual controller of the factory, is the most important.

So the most unlucky person is the production manager.

However, with the support of Yan Hongzhi and Pei Qinglan, Xu Xing is not worried that Xu Jian will be squeezed out by the production manager here like he was in the original factory.

If even this problem cannot be solved, then Xu Jian might as well resign with peace of mind and go home to retire.

"That's it, my dad is working under your dad." Thinking of this, Xu Xing felt a little dumbfounded, "I hope it won't affect us."

"It doesn't matter." When Yan Chijuan heard him talk about this, he immediately hugged him tighter, buried his cheek in his chest, and said in a depressed tone, "I have nothing to do with them anymore, as long as we are on good terms."

Xu Xing touched her head, lowered his head and kissed her smooth forehead. Seeing that the elevator had reached the seventh floor, he reminded: "We're here."

"Well..." Yan Chijuan reluctantly separated from him, but still took advantage of the moment the elevator door opened, stood up on tiptoes, kissed Xu Xing's face, turned around with a slight blush, and trotted away

Then he ran towards the door of the company.

Xu Xing followed behind with a smile, watching Yan Chijiu return to his work station and greeting his colleagues. He also walked through the office area and came to his office.

Peng Yuxuan had already been waiting here and handed the prepared information to Xu Xing as soon as possible.

"Ignore the others, what is the specific situation at Tengxin?" Xu Xing sat down and asked while flipping through the information, "Tell me more in detail."

"Tenxin's side is more complicated." Peng Yuxuan said seriously, "In general, it is a three-pronged approach, which belongs to Tengxin's old tradition."

"The first is QQ, the most mature product, which has followed up the function of adding friends to the address book. However, this function is of little significance to the size of QQ itself. At most, it can be regarded as the icing on the cake."

"Then the internal team incubated a new product, namely Q News, and carried out precise imitation attacks against our WeChat."

"In the end, we joined forces with other partners and found China Mobile. The two cooperated to launch Feixun. The model is somewhat different from WeChat. It is more like a text messaging method. The advantage is that it directly connects to the address book.

Even the steps of adding friends are saved.”

"Well... the only problem is that currently Feixun seems to be only open to mobile users, and users of China Telecom and China Unicom cannot use it."

After listening to Peng Yuxuan's more detailed introduction, Xu Xing's face looked a little strange.

To be honest, he originally thought that the threat from Feixun might be greater. After all, it is China Mobile's own son. If it can launch some preferential traffic packages and have its own publicity capabilities, it can quickly accumulate users.

But you restrict users of China Telecom and China Unicom...

This hand operation is really fascinating.

However, in this way, Xu Xing was not too worried about Feixun, and turned around to focus more on Qixun.

To be honest, although it seems that Qxun has the humblest background, it is neither the eldest son of the QQ team nor a biological father like China Mobile. It can only rely on its own functions and QQ's traffic to grow.

But in Xu Xing's eyes, this thing should be the biggest threat.

It's just that Tencent is still too conservative in this regard and has not completely distinguished Q News from QQ. For the sake of traffic, it still retains a "Q" in the name of the software. This is actually a drawback.

But Xu Xing has no obligation to remind them.

"Mr. Xu."

At this moment, there was a knock on the office door. Liao Qinyu opened the door from the outside and came to Xu Xing's desk with a serious look on his face.

"You also know?" Xu Xing knew what was going on by looking at his expression, "How is WeChat doing now?"

"Everything is fine. The number of users has exceeded 15 million. The growth rate is increasing rapidly. There may be a chance to exceed 25 million by the end of the month." Speaking of this, the depression between Liao Qinyu's brows dissipated a little, but then he said

, "However, I just received emails from Alibaba and China Unicom. Mr. Xu, you can check them."

"Alibaba and China Unicom?" Xu Xing was a little surprised. He opened his mailbox and took a look. It was the email message that Liao Qinyu had just forwarded to him.

"Yes." Liao Qinyu explained, "Although Alibaba wants to develop social software related to Alipay and Taobao, in fact, there seems to be little confidence internally, so they simply contacted us and wanted to discuss investment or direct acquisition.

things."

Xu Xing: "Well...it's indeed their style."

I opened Alibaba's email and looked at it. It contained very little content, but it was quite formal. It sent an invitation for investment and acquisition to Qunxing Company's WeChat, hoping to have a discussion.

Obviously, from Alibaba's perspective, instead of trying to make social products on its own and then being beaten by Tencent, it would be better to directly invest in or acquire the product that has the most potential to break through on the market.

Since WeChat is currently the most promising one, Alibaba naturally does not want to miss this opportunity.

Even though we know that with the revenue support of several games, WeChat's own cash flow is not a problem at all, Alibaba still wants to give it a try.

After all, users who directly connect to Taobao and Alipay are a temptation that is difficult to refuse for WeChat, and money is secondary.

To be honest, Xu Xing would be very happy if WeChat could directly connect Taobao and Alipay.

But if it comes at the cost of losing control of WeChat, then of course Xu Xing cannot agree.

only……

Xu Xing's eyes flickered, and he did not reject Ali's invitation immediately. Instead, he said to Liao Qinyu: "Don't reject it outright. This kind of thing can be discussed slowly."

"What does Mr. Xu mean?" Liao Qinyu was a little hesitant, thinking that Xu Xing really planned to sell himself to Ali.

His original purpose of joining Qunxing Company was not to leave the giant Dou and then join a giant like Alibaba, but to take a chance on the possibility of Qunxing becoming a future giant.

Fortunately, Xu Xing's next words calmed his emotions:

"Try to give Alibaba a try. We are not short of money, but we have some ideas about joining Alibaba. We just don't want to lose control of WeChat, and we are greedy for the users of Taobao and Alipay."

"It's this very tangled state, swinging back and forth, giving people the feeling that they may accept investment at any time, but they can withdraw and refuse investment at any time."

"To put it simply, we just hang him."

Liao Qinyu blinked. He didn't understand Xu Xing's purpose of doing this at first, but he slowly came back to his senses and said with a sudden smile: "Okay, no problem, Mr. Xu, don't worry."

"Well." After finalizing his attitude towards Ali, Xu Xing opened the email from China Unicom and continued to ask, "What about China Unicom? What's the situation?"

"The idea of ​​China Unicom is somewhat similar to that of China Mobile and Telecom," Liao Qinyu said. "They probably saw China Telecom and NetEase joining forces, and China Mobile and Tencent joined forces, and they also thought about getting involved."

"But they didn't plan to do it themselves or find someone to cooperate. Instead, they approached us directly and wanted to invest."

"Unlike Alibaba, China Unicom's investment is purely investment and there is no need for control. However, other requirements may not be acceptable to us."

When Xu Xing heard Liao Qinyu say this, he had already read the content of the email. After seeing the conditions proposed by China Unicom, he burst into laughter and shook his head.

"How can I have the same virtue as China Mobile... If users are limited to China Unicom, then what else am I going to do?"

Having said this, Xu Xing touched his chin, thought for a moment, and said to Liao Qinyu: "With China Unicom, we can talk about investment, but it's not the main point. When you go to talk, please focus on the data package."

"It is impossible for WeChat to only bind China Unicom, but if China Unicom wants to attract users to join China Unicom, then it can provide more preferential packages. If we cooperate with each other, we can help promote it on WeChat."

"If it is cheaper to use WeChat with China Unicom's package, then users will naturally make the choice."

"Oh, by the way." Xu Xing said this, and then added, "The content of the package can cover more, not only WeChat, but also our games, takeaways, news and other software, you can talk about it.

Can I add it to the package?"

"I understand." After listening to Xu Xing's plan, Liao Qinyu's thoughts became clear.

But Xu Xing changed the topic and said with a smile: "If China Unicom can negotiate, then we can continue to talk to China Telecom and China Mobile about package cooperation based on the conditions here."

"Ah?" Liao Qinyu was stunned for a moment, "Is this possible? Don't they all launch social software?"

"In such a bloated large company, the internal department collaboration is not that close." Xu Xing chuckled, "You yourself came from a certain age, don't you know this? In short, it doesn't cost money to give it a try. Let's talk about it later.

."

"Okay, let me talk to China Unicom first." Liao Qinyu took a deep breath, feeling that the tasks behind him were getting heavier again, "Does Mr. Xu have anything else to give?"

"No more." Xu Xing shook his head, "Please inform me of any progress on WeChat at any time."

"Okay, I'll go up first."

After sending Liao Qinyu away, Xu Xing took the time to check the status of several other social software.

To be honest, except for Tencent, which is a bit threatening, the other companies can only be said to be just here to join in the fun and try their luck.

If they can really poach a piece of the social market, everyone will be happy. If not, it won't have much impact on their core businesses.

After confirming the situation, Xu Xing turned his mind back to company affairs.

After spending an hour or two in the afternoon, after finishing the daily affairs, Yao Yuanyuan came over again, walked into the office and said to Xu Xing: "The contract has been signed over at the office building. After packing up in the past two days, we can start moving.

."

During this time, Yao Yuanyuan has been looking for office buildings around the entrepreneurial park.

Because the entrepreneurial park could still be crowded before, I wasn’t too anxious.

However, with the growth of business and the expansion of Xuhang's commercial territory, the entrepreneurial park has become a bit crowded. If we rent new office areas on other floors, it will further affect the coordination between various departments.

So this month, Yao Yuanyuan accelerated the selection of surrounding office buildings, and finally selected one not far away and rented two full floors, each with an area of ​​1,000 square meters.

Among them, there are already dozens of people in the game department, plus administrative, financial and legal personnel, who are concentrated on the 10th floor of the office building. Xu Xing's office is also here.

As for the team of Liao Qinyu and Dai Zhuoshan, the number of people was not large. They were placed on the 11th floor and could probably occupy half of the usable area on this floor.

As for the remaining half, it is temporarily reserved to prepare for subsequent expansion.

"Okay, I understand." Xu Xing said to Yao Yuanyuan, "Invite the heads of each department to come over to discuss the relocation, confirm their respective work assignments, and try not to affect the current work."

…

On November 20, Qunxing Company officially moved into the Ocean International Office Building, occupying the 10th and 11th floors, completely completing the transformation from a start-up company to a large company.

On the same day, Chen Rui, the CEO of Aizhan, came to visit again. With full sincerity, he was guided by Xu Xing, and after visiting the office space of Qunxing Company, he came to Xu Xingxin's office.

"Mr. Xu." After sitting down, Chen Rui said to Xu Xing very sincerely, "After returning home, I discussed with Cheng Shaojie in detail and came up with a more suitable plan."

"Hmm? Mr. Chen, tell me."

"The merger of the two!" Chen Rui said without too much hesitation, "Aizhan and Bizhan, the merger of the two companies will directly monopolize the domestic two-dimensional website market."
