Chapter 188: What You Know Is More Important

After remembering, Xu Xincheng remembered something, he said: "By the way, there is something I have been thinking about for several days, and this matter happens to be related to what we just said.

According to our previous plan, all the personnel on the office building of Hongfei AI Division moved to the New Era Industrial Park to work, and the time was previously set for September 15.

My suggestion is that we can come early, we can get it as early as September 1st. In this way, it is more beneficial for the company's operations to get on the right track faster.

Moreover, after moving to the industrial park, the new personnel we just mentioned for the brand marketing department can go to work in the industrial park immediately, and the transformation and upgrading of other departments can be better carried out. ”

"It's a good proposition. But before September 1, can the renovation and decoration of office buildings such as the New Era Building be completed ahead of schedule?"

"After more than two weeks of hard work, many projects are progressing much faster than previously expected.

According to the latest progress, the first office building and some other ancillary works can be completed and put into use by September 1, and we now only have more than 2,000 people, and these office buildings and facilities are more than enough.

As for other projects, such as the staff premium apartment building and the specialist villa building, more time will be needed and is expected to be completed until early September. However, these will not affect our early entry into the industrial park and early start of office in the industrial park.

My suggestion is that we spend one day on August 31 to make preparations such as packing trucks, and the next day we start moving, and it takes two days to complete the relocation work.

In this way, from September 3, we will be able to work in the New Era Industrial Park. ”

Lucy said approvingly, "Okay, that's it." ”

"In addition, we have set the opening date of September 17, and I suggest that the opening date of the park be brought forward and September 9 will be the official opening date of the New Era Industrial Park. ”

"September 9th?"

"Yes, September 9th, this day is better to remember, and it is more conducive to communication. Moreover, this day is also more auspicious, although I don't care about these myself, I know you won't care about these either, but, in China, everyone is still more particular about the day, the opening day is still very important, after all, this time of year in the future is the opening anniversary of the industrial park. This is also more Chinese characteristics, if we set the opening day on an auspicious day, then, the company's employees will feel better. ”

"Okay, that's it. This is the sixth important task I have given to everyone in the company, and the task level is level three, which is urgent and most important.

"Okay. I will also talk to General Manager Li about this. As he spoke, Xu Xincheng wrote down this matter in his notebook again.

"Steve, since you took over, the progress of the project has significantly accelerated a lot, and the quality has improved, and it has done a very good job, and I am very satisfied. ”

Hearing Lucy's compliment, Xu Xincheng was naturally very happy, he said: "Thank you! However, this is the result of the team's efforts, and this is the credit of all members of the team." ”

"The next work will only become more and more complicated and difficult, you, General Manager Li, Director Zhang, Director Wang and other management personnel, all the people in the company, must be psychologically prepared. ”

"Understood. ”

"As I said earlier, it's still just the preparatory stage, but in order to be more successful in the future, we need to bring forward a lot of things that we planned to do after the company officially opens. If you go to Dubai this time, you have to do something in advance. ”

Xu Xincheng took a deep breath, focusing his mind, ready to listen to what Lucy had to say next.

"In the past few years, I have been closely following every progress and trend of artificial intelligence technology and industry around the world, and I participate in several artificial intelligence exhibitions every year, and this exhibition in Dubai is one of the better ones.

Companies with the most advanced artificial intelligence technology from all over the world participate in this exhibition every time, such as large companies such as Singer Company, Company A, Company M, IB Company, and Yama Company, as well as some very creative start-up small enterprises and teams.

Our purpose for this exhibition is fourfold:

First, learn about the latest advances and trends in AI technology around the world.

Second, look for small enterprises and small teams with breakthrough new technologies and products, and reach a preliminary cooperation intention with them.

Third, negotiate with the exhibition organizer to win next year's booth and prepare for our company's participation next year.

Fourthly, through the introduction of Mr. Fengyun, we will also meet with Mr. Fengyun, Minister of Economy of the United Arab Emirates. Mansouri met to discuss the cooperation between Sino-US Xinfei and Dubai. ”

When he heard the fourth point, Xu Xincheng thought of a few news reports he had seen before, he said: "I have read several news reports before, Mr. Fengyun has been to Dubai several times, and there are many cooperation projects with Dubai, and he also knows the Sheikh of Dubai, that is, the prime minister of the United Arab Emirates. ”

"Yes. This meeting with the Minister of Economic Affairs was also brought about by Mr. Fengyun's recommendation before he came here at noon today. Originally, he said that he would introduce the UAE Prime Minister directly to me and facilitate my meeting with him, but I don't think it's time yet, and we will find another opportunity to meet with him after the official opening of Sino-US Information Flight.

Just before the plane took off, I received a message from Mr. Assistant-Minister. Nasser sent me a confirmation of the meeting at 18:30 Dubai time in one of the clubhouses where we were staying at the hotel.

As soon as the plane arrives in Dubai, I will forward his mail to you, please contact him as soon as possible. ”

"Okay. ”

Xu Xincheng wrote down this in his notebook, and then said with emotion: "Mr. Fengyun is amazing, I really admire him." In addition to meeting many business leaders around the world, he also knows political leaders from many countries. It reminds me of the famous English proverb: "It's not what you know, but who you know." ("It's not what you know that matters, it's who you know.") ”)

To his surprise, Lucy fell into deep thought, her big beautiful eyes flashing with a message that he couldn't decipher, and after a while, she said meaningfully, "Sometimes, what you know is more important, and it's much, much more important." ”

Xu Xincheng seems to understand a little.

It was only after a long time that he finally understood the true meaning of Lucy's words, and he realized that this sentence was right.

Next, Xu Xincheng reported to Lucy in detail on the progress of the week's work, and then the two of them used the same method they pioneered when they returned from Hangzhou last time to discuss the industrial park and other projects of the company, and the two discussed one matter after another, and made one decision after another.

The two talked for six hours until the plane landed at Dubai International Airport.
