Chapter 1342: Ballmer Comes to Report
Back to the company, the first thing Wang Dazhi did was to invite him: "Mr. Kayapa, from now on, you are the chief designer of our group's armed helicopter project, the state has allocated a special fund of 3 million yuan and a Z-9 helicopter, and the requirements are one, within three months, with reference to the development model of the American AH-1 'Cobra' armed helicopter, do you have any confidence in making a prototype?"
Viktor Vladimirovich Kayapa did not answer immediately, but asked Wang Dazhi rhetorically: "Just a prototype?"
"That's right, it's just a prototype," Wang Dazhi nodded: "Even the fire control system and the observation system can not be installed." ”
Viktor Vladimirovich Kayapa said confidently: "If that's all it takes, three months, no problem." ”
In the powertrain, transmission system, rotor system...... With all the core systems not required to be changed, this is not a problem at all for Viktor Vladimirovich Kayapa, who has rich experience in helicopter design and development, referring to the development ideas of the US military's "Cobra" gunship.
Wang Dazhi nodded: "From now on, you are the chief designer, I am the logistics director, no matter what requirements you have, you can ask me, I will assist you to solve all the problems in logistics and life, but the problems of work will be handed over to you." ”
Now that he has the opportunity to show his talents to his new club, Viktor Vladimirovich Kayapa is a little excited: "Believe me, Wang, we will definitely surprise everyone." ”
........................
When Viktor Vladimirovich Kayapa enthusiastically devoted himself to the development of the group's first gunship, Steve Ballmer, who had finally completed the handover of the work, also came to Detroit.
His wife Connie went out to play with the children, and for Steve Ballmer, who was about to meet Chen Geng, he was a little apprehensive - the psychological pressure brought to Steve Ballmer by the world's richest man was huge.
Chen Geng actually expected that Steve Ballmer would probably be a little nervous, so he deliberately did not arrange this meeting in a very solemn situation, but arranged it in an equestrian club, and the effect of this meeting in this relaxed way was really good.
When the atmosphere rose, Chen Geng finally explained to Steve Ballmer what he wanted him to do for him: "Mr. Ballmer, what I want to do this time is an online shopping site based on Internet technology. ”
"Online shopping sites?" Steve Ballmer thought for a moment, then his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but say, "This is really a genius idea!"
Although Steve Ballmer failed to become the billionaire with a net worth of tens of billions, he was also a top student of Haval, after Chen Geng said the word "online shopping site", he immediately made up a basic concept in his mind: this online shopping site is a virtual mall built on the Internet, all users who can access the Internet can sit in front of their computers, access the virtual mall through the Internet without leaving home, and choose their favorite goods.
Although it is still only a general concept, it is just such a general concept, which has already excited Steve Ballmer, and he has a feeling in his heart: if this online shopping site is done well, maybe it will be one
Of course, there are countless problems that need to be solved, but none of them matter, what matters is the concept and idea of "online shopping site"! Problems can be solved, and only this genius idea is the most important and groundbreaking.
"Do you think this is a good idea?" Chen Geng smiled, and he suddenly thought about taking the school exam: "Mr. Ballmer, how big do you think the online shopping market is?"
Steve Ballmer thought for a moment and said carefully, "I think we can make about $1 billion in sales?"
Considering that online shopping sites don't need to have physical stores, so the cost of property is almost zero, but the cost of servers and bandwidth should not be low, considering these, Steve Baller feels that if it is operated properly, 10% of the annual profit should be guaranteed, that is, when this shopping site develops, it can make hundreds of millions of dollars in net profit a year?!
This possibility made Steve Ballmer a little panicked.
This is 1995, and the annual net profit of hundreds of millions of dollars is really scary.
"$1 billion?"
Chen Geng smiled and shook his head, but he didn't say anything, if he remembered correctly, eBay and Amazon had annual sales of more than $80 billion in 2014, and the combined turnover of the two largest online shopping sites in the United States exceeded $170 billion, $1 billion?
Not enough Chen Geng did not correct Steve Ballmer's meaning, in 1995 today, the concept of online shopping has not yet appeared, Steve Ballmer dared to think that online shopping can achieve a turnover of 10 billion when he first heard himself mention this concept, this has to be how confident is this industry?
However, Chen Geng's action made Steve Ballmer a little confused: What does Mr. Fernandez mean? Does he think my guess is high or low?
But Chen Geng did not continue to go deeper on this issue, but said to Steve Ballmer: "For this shopping website, I have a complete set of ideas, and I am also very optimistic about this career, but Ballmer knows, I don't have enough time to stare at it personally, so I need a professional manager who is capable enough, but at the same time can perfectly implement my development plan, I say this, do you understand?"
What else is not understood about this?
Steve Ballmer finally understood why Chen Geng chose himself: he graduated from Haval and has been a company for so many years, whether it is business management experience or professional means, and at the same time, he is not a person who is good at strategy, that is, he is a perfect executive manager.
Steve Ballmer asked himself: Are you a perfect executive manager?
Yes, I am!
Thinking of this, Steve Ballmer nodded: "Yes sir, I think I understand, and I also think I can do what you ask." ”
