Chapter 16 Take a word for each

(Wang Yulan called Xie Houming before and should be the eldest uncle, which has been corrected.) οΌ‰

----

The people Xie Qian brought in were two men in their forties, one with a neutral face, a wide mouth and a broad jaw, and the other was relatively thin but bright-eyed. When they came in, the three of them kept talking non-stop, and when they saw Xie Feibai and the others, Wang Yulan's entire back straightened up, and she greeted with a reserved expression, "Uncle." ”

For Xie Qian, Wang Yulan is no stranger, when the family was the first to do business abroad, after returning to China, relying on millions of start-up funds, individuals accounted for 30% of the shares, pulled their own technology returnee classmates, together established Sitong Company, this later, Sitong Company to find the right outlet, the development of smooth sailing, in Zhongguancun to make a name. As a graduate of journalism, Wang Yulan, who is determined to break out of the world on this, doesn't know the current level of Xie Feibai's uncle.

Xie Qian was wearing an ochre striped scarf, dusty, but calm and relaxed, with his own aura.

Facing Wang Yulan, Xie Fei, and Bai Chengran's greetings, he greeted them back, looked at Cheng Ran, and nodded. At this time, the two men who were with him also smiled at them, but it was obvious that there was an unresolved topic between the three of them just now, and Xie Qian chatted again.

He spoke very quickly, and led the topic, discussing the content of investment, sometimes he made a judgment at a word, the man with a broad face always smiled and responded, and the thin one expressed his opinion from the side, every time he interjected, it was just the moment when Xie Qian, who spoke very fast, interrupted his words. The three of them chatted with a sense of art that advanced layer by layer, which is often not a good look, but a real speculative chat.

After entering the door, a table of dishes had been set up, and Xie Qian had yet to introduce Xie Houming and his wife, but in fact, Xie Houming and the thoughtful-looking man had shaken hands earlier.

"Mr. Xie, Mr. Xie is busy, we have met a few times before, and today I am honored to come to your house for dinner with Brother Xie's light, it's an honor." ”

Xie Houming smiled, "Director Zhou said that he laughed, your Bureau of Commerce still supports our work more." ”

"What kind of support, you're a big brother, I'm cooperating with you. ”

Zhou Wenwu is the director of the Municipal Bureau of Commerce, and also Xie Gan's former classmate, Xie Gan's visit to Rongcheng this time, in fact, is to have a few investments to discuss, Zhou Wenwu also belongs to help matchmaking, hoping to use the relationship of old classmates to let Xie Qian implement part of the business in Rongcheng.

The other person brought by Xie Qian is the current vice president of Silicon Valley Vances Investment Consulting Company, named Feng Shan, who is currently running for Xie Gan's financing, specifically to help package Xie Gan's company and promote it to investors.

Everyone went to the table, and as soon as they were introduced, the atmosphere was harmonious.

Xie Gan said, "Don't think that I am trying to save money and pull you to my eldest brother's house for dinner." ”

Xie Houming glared at him, "It's all your own people, and home-cooked food is the best." Hearing Xie Qian say that I want to invite you, I quickly beckoned everyone to come home and eat out, it was too formal, and there was no such atmosphere. ”

Zhou Wenwu laughed, "A cup of respect for big brother, they are all my own people, as a little brother, when I used to go to school with Brother Xie, I heard that you have a hand in cooking, and at that time I was salivating, and I couldn't taste your craftsmanship, so I heard Xie Qian say that I came to your house to eat, I couldn't ask for it!"

Feng Shan took a bite of food first and was full of praise, "I also salute my eldest brother, Xie Qian and I are brothers, and when we talk about things at home, we can actually talk more freely than outside." ”

Zhang Wei knew that the protagonist was the group of men in front of her, so she smiled and didn't interject.

And Wang Yulan is excited, the person in front of him, Zhou Wenwu of the Rongcheng City Bureau of Commerce, has only recently vigorously promoted the landing of the Western Industrial Park, the business newspaper has spared no effort to report on him, the young Zhuang new star of the Rongcheng officialdom, Wang Yulan has just entered the workplace, the business newspaper group has a government background, I don't know much, but I have heard about it, the two big notes who wrote the column want to interview this Zhou Wenwu, or the group boss came forward to say the item, but Zhou Wenwu responded that he just wanted to be a low-key officer, this is the credit of the Commerce Bureau, don't work yourself, just accept an interview appropriately。

As a result, the two big keezes almost fought for this opportunity, fighting openly and secretly, and all kinds of knives and guns clashed. Wang Yulan, who was in the meantime, just listened to the people around her, saying that Zhou Wenwu was backed by the provincial party committee boss, he was a doer, and he was a capable person, so he could be so capricious, and the big guy behind him supported him, and he wanted to create the image of a key city in Chengdu for investment promotion, which was the person holding the sword of Shang Fang.

And in front of him, such a legendary figure was so in front of him, gently echoing Xie Gan.

Another Feng Shan, Wang Yulan is a fledgling, but she doesn't know too much, but when she heard that the other party was a venture capitalist running around Silicon Valley, there was a dazzling amount of information between her words, and Wang Yulan could only be speechless.

In the final analysis, people are still here for Xie Feibai, the uncle Xie Gan, and these people in front of them are all able to get press releases. I can't say that after today's meal, Rongcheng and the IT industry can have a few more far-reaching business decisions.

As a journalism graduate, Wang Yulan knows how important these resources are and how much energy these characters have. And she was right in front of them, and she could hear their views on the world with her own ears, and their unknown experiences were an opportunity that a journalist couldn't find even with a lantern.

Xie Houming also did not forget to introduce Wang Yulan, saying that this is Xie Feibai's sister, she is a journalism major, just graduated, a top student at university, and now works in the Business Daily Group, Xie Qian said to Zhou Wenwu by the way, Lao Zhou, you will take care of my niece in the future.

Zhou Wenwu nodded with a smile and said I wrote it down. didn't talk much, but Wang Yulan knew that this was going to her heart, if she said it on the surface, maybe it would be discounted, but it was the rumored Zhou Wenwu who was trustworthy with a mouthful of spit and a nail. This is all Uncle Xie Qian's energy, Wang Yulan's heart is as sweet as honey.

Next, the banquet became a conversation place for Xie Gan, Zhou Wenwu, and Feng Shan, and occasionally Xie Houming would interject two sentences, and then he would hand over the conversation to the three of them.

Feng Shan is humorous and funny, and he also has a wealth of experience, and he comes to all kinds of things as soon as he opens his mouth, and becomes an active machine at the dinner table. Although Zhou Wenwu is the director of the Bureau of Commerce and is also from a prestigious school, he still has to ask Feng Shan for advice on the operation of many foreign-funded companies in the economy.

Wang Yulan knew that she was a junior, and she couldn't interject at all on this occasion, but she listened attentively throughout the whole process, sometimes laughing with the laughter of the three of them, and sometimes stopping her chopsticks and being attracted by the topic without blinking, she just wanted to know what the people in their position were talking about in a day.

Xie Feibai is a transparent person who has been ignored throughout the whole process, eating quietly alone.

Cheng Ran listened to the conversation between Xie Qian and the three of them, and the main topic was the current funding issue. It turns out that Sitong Company is now merging with Huayuan, going to the world's largest Chinese website, the department has been broken up and reorganized, and a large number of people have been recruited in the process of reorganization, and more than a dozen fronts have advanced synchronously, and the operating cost has increased significantly.

In Xie Gan's words, it was "the outflow of silver."

Now there is an urgent need for money, the problem is that the fifteen million dollars of financing in the early stage, brought back at that time, into the Beijing account, caused a sensation in Zhongguancun, but there are also problems, in order to block the phenomenon of "fake joint ventures" in this era, the country has extremely strict control over foreign exchange remittances, and North America cannot use this money at all. Secondly, if you want to be a large-scale Internet company and eventually go public, this money will definitely not be enough.

So now the problem is the need for financing, the need to develop business, speaking of now, Sitong company is actually still operating at a loss, advertising business is actually not much, the first few quarters of revenue is only less than one million US dollars, and the largest revenue is the sale of the previous Sitong Chinese platform software. For an Internet company, the biggest revenue now is actually the sale of software, which is naturally unreasonable.

Xie Qian's consideration is the future strategic focus.

And Zhou Wenwu is staring at the fifteen million dollars that Xie Qian can't spend in North America in his pocket now, and wants to let him take out some of the industrial park in Rongcheng, and he is also promoting business to him.

Feng Shan's side has a lot of projects that want to come over to finance cooperative companies and connect with Xie Gan.

Hearing this, Cheng Ran generally had a judgment...... Xie Qian, you've come to this point.

When capital flocked to him, Xie Gan was of course the core of the arch in it, a celebrity, and the scenery was infinite. But this is also a matter of diluting his own shares, and when it is diluted to a dangerous value, if the company is smooth, it is better to say, if it encounters some trouble, I am afraid that he will lose control of the company.

But in fact, Cheng Ran can't change the path Xie Gan is taking, the road he takes is the process of financing, growing, and then going public, he will achieve this company, and because of this company, he will bear the ups and downs. But this is actually what a pioneer like him has to go through.

Now it is Xie Gan, Zhou Wenwu, and Feng Shan, focusing on the strategic focus of the future development of Sitong Company, and what kind of display to open up, the controversy is endless.

Xie Houming knew that this was a critical period for them, so he and Zhang Wei didn't interject, waiting for them to figure it out for themselves. It seems that this kind of brain-burning thing, they have been studying it before.

Xie Gandao, "Feng Shan and I feel that it is best to cooperate with Hong Kong's Guangming Satellite TV to combine our portal website and TV media, make full use of the advantages of cooperation between the two sides, shorten the process of achieving profitability, and open up 'widescreen cross-media cooperation'." So Lao Zhou, I'm afraid your industrial park project proposal will have to be shelved. ”

Wang Yulan's heart jumped, so in this way, Director Zhou of the Commerce Bureau was rejected by his uncle?

Zhou Wenwu took a sip of wine, smiled bitterly, and said, "Alas, I still haven't been able to move you, it's okay...... You have your considerations, but we don't think about them. If you kid go through this road in the future, don't forget that you rejected my credit, and don't forget to invite me to dinner when the time comes. ”

Zhou Wenwu said so, but he could see that he was very depressed. But this is each for its own career, they are all adults, each has their own priorities, although they are friends, they will not insert the interference of friendship in really important things, that is a sign of immaturity.

Cheng Ran was sudden, the company similar to Xie Qiansitong's website in his previous life also made this choice, probably the portal website would have such a step in consideration during this period, but in the end, it turned out that this was a bad move.

After thinking for a while, Cheng Ran spoke, "I don't think the cross-media cooperation model is good, first, one is the satellite TV screen, facing the TV audience, the other is the portal, facing the netizens, the audience overlap is not high, I don't think advertisers will be interested in this model." Secondly, the marginal cost after cooperation is actually very high, which directly loses the low information cost advantage of the natural Internet of Sitong company, and the content expenditure will be very high at that time, which will drag down the development of Sitong. ”

"On the contrary, Director Zhou's suggestion, I think you can consider it, the western industrial park has some SP content providers, with the popularity of mobile phones, the future expansion of Sitong in wireless, may be a good profit breakthrough. ”

After finishing speaking, Cheng Ran smiled at everyone again and said, "Of course, I just saw an Internet book before, which is written like this. ”

In the middle of the conversation, there was silence on the table.

Zhou Wenwu was surprised, Feng Shan looked at Cheng Ran who suddenly spoke, his brows were already furrowed, and he was obviously stunned that Cheng Ran directly broke the established plan between him and Xie Gan.

At this table, Cheng Ran is actually like a junior in the family like Xie Feibai, Wang Yulan also echoes and smiles from time to time, and puts forward some opinions when appropriate, although he is a layman, Feng Shan, who does not snub the lady, will give humorous answers that are as simple and understandable as possible, often enlivening the atmosphere.

It stands to reason that on such occasions, where is their turn to speak.

It's just that this Cheng Ran is still untrustworthy. Wang Yulan's heart was already overturned, thinking that this Xie Feibai was really unreliable, just bring someone casually, and dare to interject in the words of the adults, the adults in the family talk, where is the juniors interfering!?

Wang Yulan couldn't help it at the moment, and said, "Do you know what everyone is discussing, and the Internet, those people who write about the Internet, I'm afraid they haven't even figured out what a computer is now, and it took a year or two to write a book and go public, and after a year or two, everything they wrote is outdated! And what Uncle Xie Qian did today will only be reported in the future, what do you know?"

Wang Yulan thought to herself that Cheng Ran was a student of No. 10 Middle School, and ran out to show off, but you are all big guys in front of you, what are you doing with a little high school student! I have been away from No. 10 Middle School for many years, and now the students in this school are so flamboyant?

As a result, Wang Yulan said, but found that the atmosphere in the banquet was not right. Xie Houming was thinking about it, Zhou Wenwu's face was embarrassed, and he showed a wry smile, just drinking hard, he didn't expect that it was actually a junior who helped him speak, what kind of thing is this......

But Xie Qian was stunned.

Then he said, "Oh, that's not going to work." That's okay, then do as you say, and I'll cooperate with Lao Zhou. ”

Feng Shan was stunned. Zhou Wenwu's hand shook, and the wine in the cup almost overflowed.

Wang Yulan herself was still talking to Cheng Ran, and at this time, she turned her head little by little and looked at Xie Gan.

Such a big thing, the strategic focus of the world's largest Chinese Chinese portal in the future, is between Cheng Ran's words, the balance is reversed!?

Zhou Wenwu was still in a daze, Xie Qian hooked his shoulder and touched a cup, "In that case, the future strategic focus will expand to the wireless business, here in the Western Industrial Park of Rongcheng, we will come up with a way of cooperation and make a name for ourselves, and it will be easy to find foreigners for financing in the future, Lao Zhou, you will have to worry more at that time." ”

Xie Houming smiled and helped to sit on this matter, "In my opinion, Director Xiao Zhou is actually a practical person, and he really wants to build our industrial base in Rongcheng. ”

Zhou Wenwu only nodded "uh-huh......". There are a series of question marks in my heart, could this be Xie Qian, an old classmate, playing bitter tricks with himself?

After drinking Dingjun wine with Zhou Wenwu, Xie Qian turned his head to Cheng Ran and said, "There is another question, we acquired Huayuan, and now we have not decided on a new name to be listed in the future, what do you think it should be called?"

Feng Shan was also stunned, and now the name of the merged company has attracted constant controversy among the top executives in Beijing and North America, and it has not been decided for a long time on Xie Gan's side.

How...... Ask about the teenager in front of you?

Cheng Ran thought for a while and said, "The domain name of Huayuan Company is sina, and it is acquired by your Sitong Company, so take a name for each, I think, it will be written as Tona, and Tonglang is good." ”

Xie Qian patted the table heroically, "Tonglang...... That's what it's called!"

Xie Houming raised his glass and smiled, "I think it's not bad." ”

At this moment, Zhou Wenwu looked at Cheng Ran frequently, and he didn't know what he was observing. Feng Shan was also surprised, and then immediately seemed to be infected by Xie Gan, and gave birth to a sense of refreshment, "Okay, then as Mr. Xie said, it's okay to call this name!" ”

Wang Yulan's eyes, which couldn't be covered by big-rimmed glasses, were wide open.
