Chapter Twenty-Three: The Most Powerful Olympic Games in History (Part I)
After breakfast, according to Liu Qiangdong's address, Chen Fu and Cao Boss took a taxi.
Chen Fu originally thought that Mr. Chen, who sells second-hand computers, specializes in this for a living. When I arrived, I realized that things were not simple.
Mr. Chen's office address is also in Zhongguancun, and it is in the best location of Jinding Building.
He didn't rent an office or two, but bought out the 16th floor of the Jinding Building.
On the 16th floor, there is a special front desk to greet you.
Even if Liu Qiangdong is a frequent visitor here, he has to fill out an appointment form.
Of course, after they filled it out, the front desk dialed an internal line, and soon a special staff came to greet them.
Liu Qiangdong introduced to Chen Fu that this is Zhong Wen, Mr. Chen's assistant, and a highly talented student who graduated from Peking University majoring in computer science.
She is very delicate, and she is not as old as Chen Fu in the morning.
Zhong Wen shook hands with Chen Fu and Boss Cao, saying that Mr. Chen would be busy in 15 minutes, and then took the three of them to the 1616 office, took three glasses of mineral water and put them down, and asked them to wait for a while.
Chen Fu regretted that he took it for granted and did not do enough homework in advance to fully understand Mr. Chen.
"Brother Liu, I'm really sorry. I don't have enough business experience, so I didn't know about Mr. Chen from you that day. ”
"He. A guy with a high IQ!"
Hearing Liu Qiangdong's title, Chen Fu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Qiangdong should be very familiar with him.
"Please also ask Brother Liu to introduce one or two. ”
Mr. Chen's full name is Chen Yizhou, a native of Hubei, with a bachelor's degree in computer science from Wuhan University, a master's degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and an MBA from Stanford University. ”
It was a very shocking experience. Wuhan University is already a well-known university in China, and this person can still study in the two famous universities in the United States in the 90s.
The name sounds familiar, too.
Liu Qiangdong continued: "After his MBA at Stanford University, he and two Stanford alumni co-founded the largest networked Chinese community called Huaxiaren. ”
"Oh, it's him. ”
When Liu Qiangdong said this, Chen Fu suddenly realized.
In the last life, this person's name was also well-known in the Internet world, especially among students at all levels. Huaxiaren has a sub-section called Alumni Directory.
Chen Fu remembers that when he graduated from university in 2001, the 7th class of their 97th undergraduate class of Haibin Normal University also created an alumni directory on it, and until he graduated with a doctorate in 2007, the alumni directory continued to be popular and became a link between most students.
Unfortunately, though, it lost out to the trend.
With the popularization of mobile phones, especially the widespread application of QQ and WeChat, Huaxianren's influence gradually declined until it was shut down.
However, Chen Yizhou's talent cannot be denied.
In the era of mobile Internet, he is still a trendsetter.
He also has a classmate who is a little more famous than him, Lei Jun!
There is one thing that Chen Fu doesn't understand, Chen Yizhou has developed very well in the United States, and it should belong to the high-spirited period, why did he suddenly return to China to develop.
He wanted to ask, but Zhong Wen came in with a man about thirty years old.
Liu Qiangdong stood up and shouted: "Mr. Chen, morning!"
The man nodded: "Old Liu, you are never late." ”
Chen Fu and Boss Cao stood up.
Liu Qiangdong made a brief introduction.
This person is Chen Yizhou, and his bearing is extraordinary.
Chen Yizhou already knew the meaning of their coming.
Chen Yizhou spoke succinctly, and the reason for selling computers was to replace all employees with laptops.
This shocked Chen Fu greatly.
In this era, the price of ordinary notebooks is more than 10,000 yuan, and the better configuration is 50,000 or 60,000.
Desktops are rare in dual-income families, and everyone is ready to use laptops.
On second thought, it's no wonder.
Chen Yizhou has been in the United States for many years. At this time, the market share of notebooks in the United States is almost equal to that of desktop computers.
Chen Yizhou didn't have much politeness, and took the three of them to the warehouse where the desktop computers were stored.
When Chen Fu saw those computers, he felt more moved and grateful to Liu Qiangdong in his heart.
These computers are still brand machines, and the configuration is already the highest at present, and when they are sold on the market, one can be sold for at least three or four thousand.
It is impossible for Liu Qiangdong, who often does business in the computer city, not to know about this business opportunity, but he still left the opportunity to him, a student who has not yet left the campus.
"Mr. Chen, Mr. Liu, the probability of buying these computers is really smaller than the probability of Huaxia winning the South Korean National Olympics. ”
"Haha, my brother still likes football?"
Chen Yizhou's eyes lit up and he seemed interested.
"I just like to watch, I don't like to play. ”
Chen Fu is a person who loves to be quiet and does not like to move. Football has always been one of his biggest passions and he is fascinated by it. Playing less football.
He remembered that he had only played a few games in the Graduate School of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, and he was still a substitute.
"I also love watching football. ”
Liu Qiangdong also chimed in.
"What do you two think of tonight's Chinese Olympic Games?"
"I think this National Olympics is more dramatic. This is known as the strongest national Olympic team in history. However, this is an away game, and the Chinese Olympic team should be able to score at least one point. ”
Liu Qiangdong said.
"I think you can get a point. This year's players have performed brightly at the Asian Games and the Dunhill Cup. Moreover, all the group stage wins appeared. On the other hand, there are really not many outstanding players in this South Korean Olympic Games, and it is said that they are the weakest in history. ”
Chen Yizhou paused, and then analyzed:
"In the warm-up match with Japan, South Korea lost twice, and there was a 1:4 defeat. Head coach Xu Dingmao is under a lot of pressure. To crack Koreanophobia, it is up to this to enter the Olympic Games. Happier than our predecessors, we can still see the National Olympic Games on a big stage. ”
Boss Cao and Liu Qiangdong both nodded, saying that Mr. Chen's analysis was incisive.
Chen Fu smiled bitterly in his heart.
He is a person who has come over and knows that the Huaxia National Olympic Games lost 0:1 in the end. They barely won 2-1 at home against Bahrain, drew 1-1 against South Korea, and finally lost their fighting spirit at home and lost 0-1 to Bahrain.
Hey, Chen Fu sighed when he thought of this.
"Oh. Brother Chen has a different opinion?"
Chen Yizhou asked.
Liu Qiangdong was also full of questions.
Coach Houghton has received widespread recognition and has already shouted the slogan "not only to show up, but to win medals at the Olympics".
The country is also optimistic.
If Chen Fu hadn't experienced it, it would have been the same.
"That's right. I don't think it's very likely that the national Olympics will win points. We all know that this year's National Olympic team is a player who has returned from studying in Brazil, and he pays attention to transmission and control skills. However, Horton, who hails from Great Britain, has always emphasised parallel stance. I'm afraid that a lot of technical players will have a hard time playing. ”
"Then there's the question of the position of the players. I don't think Zheng Zhi and Tao Wei should play full-back, the midfield is more suitable. Horton is very good on paper. Technique and tactics are not practical. ”
Chen Fu himself felt ashamed.
After Zheng Zhi transferred to Shenzhen Ping'an, he was transformed into a midfielder by then head coach Zhu Guanghu, and won the title of Footballer of the Year in the 2002 Chinese Super League.
As for Tao Wei, he became the out-and-out midfield commander of the national security team.
At this time, Horton put both of them in the guard position, which also lacked the eye to discover.
Listening to his analysis, Chen Yizhou and others felt very incredible.
"Well, let's make a bet with you. I guess the Olympics at least ended in a draw. I'm losing, I'll add you a few more computers. ”
Chen Yizhou said confidently.
"How boring a few computers are. That's it, Mr. Chen. I guess we lost the game 0:1. If I guess correctly, I buy 1% of the equity from your company, and Mr. Chen will give a discount of 85%. ”
"Haha, brother is interesting. Still so optimistic about my company. What if I lose?"
"If you lose, Mr. Chen will give me a chance to buy your company's shares, or 1%. I bought it at 1.15 times. ”
"Haha, the gentleman has no jokes. Brother Chen is so confident. I'm done!"
Chen Fu suddenly thought that Huaxianren would be bought by Souki in September 2000, and the income from the shares would be doubled several times.
Although Chen Yizhou is flourishing at this stage, the company has just been established and the funds are still insufficient.
There are not too many investors who are optimistic about him, and no matter what form Chen Fu comes in, it is beneficial to each other, and it is not considered to use information asymmetry to earn ill-gotten gains.
Chen Yizhou is very happy, the computer is sold, and there may be an investor.
The investment amount may not be large, but it is also a good start.
When Chen Fu paid for the computer and left, he sent it downstairs and said that after the results of the game came out, he could come over the next day to sign the agreement.
He was also a little uneasy in his heart. He was born again, and I don't know if the football score will change.
Then, it was soon calm again.
Even if there is a miracle, it is not bad for the Chinese National Olympic Games to score away points and successfully enter the Olympic Games.
He lost some money, but the people of the whole country finally ushered in great joy.
