Chapter 459 Shopping Sites
In the IBM-operated store on Fifth Avenue in New York, Dani was wearing a casual suit and sitting leisurely on the second floor drinking coffee.
A few moments later, a white man in a black suit walked into the store and walked up the second floor towards Daini.
"Hello Miss Miller, sorry to keep you waiting. The white man came up to Daini and nodded slightly in apology.
"Sit down!" Dani pressed her hand and motioned for the white man to sit down.
"How do you think about it, do you choose to sell groceries at Walmart for the rest of your life, or do you choose to change the world?" asked Daini, the white man as he sat down and the waiter left with a cup of coffee.
"I can't refuse your words. The white man smiled slightly: "I took over the project of shopping websites." β
Change the world!
There are very few people who don't want to change the world, but it takes opportunity, wisdom, courage ....... Not everyone can encounter it, and not everyone has the courage to do it without hesitation.
"Congratulations, I made the best decision in my life, and I will look back on it many years later and will not regret my choice today. The corners of Dani's mouth rose, and she took out a Morgan bank card from her handbag and handed it to the white man: "There are $2 billion in this, which is the operating capital of the shopping website, put it away." As for the project, all the information and related technologies are in the IBM laboratory, go to them and they will give. β
"Okay!" the white man carefully put away his bank card, and then asked, "Where is the company office?"
"I'll rent an office in Alameda City, I've bought the abandoned naval base there, and then I'll build an office building there for you. β
The white man was overjoyed to hear that the company was going to be located in Alameda.
Alameda is a beautiful city in the eastern part of the San Francisco Bay Area, with a very low crime rate, and it's great to work in such a location.
But the white man didn't have long to be happy, and Dani poured cold water on her.
"Be prepared that it will take at least seven to eight years to build an office building, so when choosing a temporary office space, consider how long it will take eight years. β
"Eight years to fix it?" The white man was a little confused, was this going to repair the Empire State Building? But the Empire State Building only took three years.
Speaking of office buildings, Dani also has a headache.
John is going to build three office buildings, a shopping website, a payment company, and a crown studio, each of these three buildings is built with special glass, and the estimated cost is 40-5 billion US dollarsγ
And John has asked people to go to the global rainforest to collect all kinds of precious plants, and then build dozens of glass houses in Hollywood, plant these plants in it, and after the three glass balls are built, they will all be moved into the balls to create a tropical rainforest.
When Dani looked at the blueprints, she had moved the office into a forest, filled with all kinds of strange rooms, such as an office hanging in the air like a bird's nest, a treehouse recreation area resting on a tree, a small waterfall, a gravel path, a meadow, a creek, and a variety of fish in the stream.
This is an office building, it's a park!
Dani also persuaded John not to repair such a strange shape, and it cost more than $4 billion to build a skyscraper.
But John didn't listen to the persuasion, insisted on going his own way, saying that people will have more than 10,000 hours to stay in the office in their lives, as a good boss, should provide employees with a comfortable, healthy, beautiful office building, so that employees are in a good mood, work more motivated, and imagination, in order to create more benefits for the company.
And John finally said that he was going to be in Crown Studios for ten or twenty years, and for such a long time, he needed an office place where he could feel good.
Hearing this, how could Dani persuade John? Could it be that John would give up his happiness for more than $4 billion?
So Dani could only grit her teeth and do as she was told. No way, the boss's mood is the most important.
After talking about the office, Dani went on to talk about the company's online issue.
After understanding the technology and operating model, he immediately started to build a team, and Mr. JK hopes that the project will be officially launched in October. So there is not much time left, only 5 months. β
"Okay. "Five months was a bit stressful, and the white man felt a sense of pressure.
"Don't worry, I'll try my best to help here, and I've prepared three trump cards to help.
The first trump card is the book. The group has just acquired three of the largest publishing houses in China, and all their books will be on the website, and they can attract customers with low-cost books.
The second trump card is propaganda. More than 40 celebrities have been invited to hold a charity auction on our website on the day of the launch, and all the proceeds from the auction will be donated to UNICEF. The influence of more than 40 celebrities will bring great traffic to the website.
In addition, the third trump card is that we have invited the largest chain pharmacy in the United States, as well as more than a dozen first-class clothing stores, jewelry and watch stores, as well as General Motors Group, Toyota Motor Group, and IBM Group to enter our website.
With the entry of these large groups, I believe it will be easier to negotiate the entry of the group. "Dani has been working a lot for this shopping site during this time, but it is still very rewarding to be busy.
"Understood! Thank you, Miss Miller. After hearing this, the white man felt much less pressure on his body.
In addition, IBM is developing a ticketing system, once developed, our website can provide customers with plane tickets, train tickets, movie tickets, tourist attraction tickets, and hotel reservations, all of which can bring a lot of customer traffic to the website. So with that support, there's going to be a lot less pressure on this side. β
"Please rest assured that with the support of the group, I will be able to make this project happen. The white man looked at Dani with confidence, and if he couldn't do a good job of this shopping site, then he wouldn't have to stay in the group.
"In that case, then on behalf of Mr. JK, I will officially hand over Letao Company. Dani took out three contracts from her handbag and handed them to the white man.
The white man took the contract, took a pen out of his suit pocket and signed his name on three contracts β Doug Macmillan.
"Sign without looking at the contract, aren't you afraid that the Morgan family will sell?" Dani was a little surprised by Doug Macmillan's approach, this kind of employment contract is signed after reading and then bargaining, like Doug Macmillan who signed directly without looking at it is the first time she has encountered it.
"The Morgan family is not going to waste more than a hundred years of reputation on a little man like me, and Miss Miller has already shown Mr. JK's sincerity by coming in person, so I believe that JK will definitely offer the best treatment he can offer. β
"Mr. JK was right. Dani smiled and picked up the two contracts and put them in her handbag, leaving one for Doug Macmillan.
"I won't go on the day of the establishment of Letao, and I wish success Mr. Macmillan. β
"Thank you, please pass it on to Mr. JK, I will not disappoint him, and I hope to go to Phantom Manor to say hello to him in person one day. β
"I'll pass it on!"
