Chapter 178: Siege and Plunder (2/3)
After solving the problem of development funds, the next thing to be solved by 67.com will be the problem of talent team building.
Pu Ruo's words are very correct, a large-scale enterprise is not created by a single person, but by the strength of the collective. As the boss, his task is to solve the problem of capital and talent.
At present, Lin Jinhua is mainly responsible for the online business of 67.com, Wu Xiangjun is responsible for the offline business, and Qin Lan wears many hats, both as the administrative director and the financial director, and also makes suggestions for the company's development.
Next, 67.com is about to conquer the city, and it is urgent to expand the talent team.
On the night of his return from Chengnan, Guan Qiu called Pu Ruo, who was in Shanghai, and asked her to come back to help him.
This woman must be capable, courageous, and courageous, plus she has studied at an Ivy League university, and she is definitely the best candidate for general manager.
It's a pity that Pu Ruo is unwilling.
Guan Qiu really didn't know how to persuade him.
She is now the CEO of Sanhe Securities China, managing tens of millions of dollars in investment funds, picking up and dropping off luxury cars when she goes out, drinking coffee and talking about financial stocks every day, and earning a lot of money every month.
What does he have here? Nothing.
She didn't have high-class coffee to drink, and she couldn't afford that month's salary.
So, forget it if you don't come.
After Pu Ruo replied, "Let's talk about it later", Guan Qiu hung up the phone.
At this time, in a financial building in Lujiazui, Shanghai, when he received a call from Guan Qiu, Pu Ruo was negotiating financing with a customer who came from afar, so he hung up after a few hurried chats.
By the time the customer was dropped-off, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.
Gently kneading her sore eyes, Pu Ruo put a thick stack of prospectuses on the desk, and then lay down on the chair and closed her eyes for a few minutes.
Suddenly, thinking of something, she opened her eyes again and took the phone on the desk.
She often has no distractions at work, forgets to sleep and eat, and does not care about anything that has nothing to do with the work itself, even if the sky falls.
This point was often blamed by Wu Xiangjun before, for example, she often forgot about the dinner at 7 o'clock because of work, or when she was working, she said that she would arrive soon, but often no one came for half an hour.
Just like now, she vaguely remembered that Guan Qiu had called her before, but she had forgotten what she said.
Flipping through the call log, Guan Qiuzhen called her two hours ago.
Pu Ruo hesitated for a while but gave up the plan to call back, and sat there quietly in a daze.
The incident with the last time Mineshima Garden left a huge psychological shadow on her, causing her to not only have no interest in men now, but even resist women equally.
She felt "dirty".
In fact, she now remembers a lot about what happened that night, she thought that she was resisting and struggling at that time, but her body was very honest, and she still cooperated with each other later.
She couldn't believe it was her true self.
So she has been in pain and tangled all this time, and wants to anesthetize herself with her work.
But today, a phone call once again disturbed her gradually calm heart.
……
……
Just when Guan Qiu was worried about talents, on the morning of the eighth day of the new year, Wu Xiangjun didn't know where to kidnap two more women......
35-year-old Chen Qi is a senior accountant.
28-year-old Xia Lena is a former sales elite in the real estate business department.
Chen Qi is a single mother, and her daughter is just now able to walk, so her working hours are not fixed because she needs to take care of her daughter.
As for Charlena, this woman is not simple. In this year when real estate sales are not yet hot, it is conceivable that it can become a sales elite.
It's useless to just be able to sleep, EQ, IQ, and wrist are all the same.
"On behalf of 67.com, I welcome two beauties to join!" Guan Qiu stretched out his hand and smiled.
Chen Qi, who looked mature and beautiful with a flower bud and a black silk scarf tied around his neck, reached out and shook hands with Guan Qiu, and said with a generous smile: "It's a great honor~"
Another Xia Lena, who has a big wavy roll but a baby face, is pure and sexy, holding Guan Qiu's hand and not relaxing, looking at it with a pair of beautiful eyes, she said with a smile: "You know, the house I rent now was found through 67.com last month, I didn't expect to come to work with you now, it's amazing!"
"Haha, yes, that's a coincidence. If you want to rent a house in the future, you can choose it directly from the intranet. Saying that, Guan Qiu tugged at his hand.
Charlenna held his hand tightly and asked with a smile, "Is there a discount then?"
Guan Qiu said with a smile: "There is no discount, but the company has subsidies." In addition, in the future, the company will have welfare incentives such as single apartments. If the company's performance is improved, it will not be a big deal to give you a house per person at that time. ”
Xia Lina finally let go of her hand and said with a smile: "Wu Xiangjun praised 67 Tongcheng in front of me, and now the boss says so again, if you lie to me in the future, I can leave at any time!"
Guan Qiu laughed and said: "As long as you work hard, I promise that you will have a house, a car, a ticket, everything in the future." ”
Then Guan Qiu personally took the two of them to visit 67.com, and then found someone to lead them to familiarize themselves with the company's business.
Wu Xiangjun had a group of people under him before, a total of 23 people, two groups, one group was responsible for the in-depth development of Lucheng, and the other group was responsible for business development in Sucheng.
Now that Xia Liana has joined, one of the groups of people will be handed over to her to lead, and then Jiangbei will be handed over to her to develop, and Wu Xiangjun is more familiar with southern Jiangsu, and then focus on developing the business in the area of Suxichang.
Three days later, the funds that Qian Feng helped to contact were in place.
Xia Lina was a vigorous and resolute woman, and she drove to Guangling City that afternoon.
And Wu Xiangjun went to Biling City the next morning, preparing to open a branch there.
Offline business began to exert force, and online business also began to exert force.
On the day of the Lantern Festival on February 5th of the solar calendar, after a week of negotiations, 67.com and Baidu reached a deepening strategic cooperative relationship.
In the future, Baidu will have special technical personnel to analyze customers like 67.com, and select high-quality advertisements that meet the characteristics of customers to display on different platforms and different regions of 67.com, so that the interests of 67.com and advertisers can be maximized.
Of course, there is a lot of price to be paid for this, and 1/3 of the pure advertising revenue of the basic online will be handed over to Baidu.
But it can't be helped. Who makes Baidu the first in the current Chinese search engine, and Baidu's service is more in line with the interests of 67.com.
In addition, 67.com finally began to advertise unavoidably.
Advertisements were placed in traditional media, newspapers, magazines, and advertising buildings in the province of Sioux.
Money is spent like flowing water.
However, at the same time, the traffic and the number of registrations in 67.com have increased significantly.
On February 15, the number of registered users in 67.com exceeded 200,000, with an average of 70,000+ unique daily visitors;
On February 25, the number of registered users in 67.com exceeded 300,000, and the average daily unique visitors reached a staggering 100,000+.
It is important to know that a high number of registrations does not mean that there are many users per day.
It is possible that a website with 100,000 registered people will have less than 10,000 unique visitors per day.
This can only show that 67.com has ultra-high user stickiness, and it also means that it has unlimited potential.
On February 29, 2004, 67.com became the No. 1 website in Suzhou Province in terms of the number of registered users and average daily traffic.
ALEXA ranked in the top 100 in the weekly ranking of national websites and ranked 186th in the global Chinese website rankings.
With the increase of popularity, more and more enterprises come to the door to advertise.
67.com's advertising business department and business development department have also been established.
The workforce of 67.com has also expanded rapidly.
From less than 100 people a year ago, by the beginning of March, 67.com and Tianxiu Real Estate had more than 400 regular employees, including 250 offline salesmen.
As the number of employees increases, so does the company's overhead.
The main thing is the housing rental, which has not yet formed self-sufficiency and needs a "blood transfusion" from the head office.
But the 67 city is now attacking the city everywhere, and its own funds are already stretched, so how can there be blood to send to it.
For this reason, Guan Qiu had a headache.
In fact, he has already been approached by capital, such as "SAIF Fund" and "IDG Capital", which entered China early and are mainly engaged in Internet investment, have expressed strong interest in 67.com.
Even Yang Dong, the executive officer of SAIF Fund, called him and expressed his desire to invest, but he refused.
It's not that he doesn't need to invest, the main thing is that 67.com is currently in a period of rapid development, and it will be too expensive to let capital intervene too early.
If someone invests 5 million or 10 million US dollars, he must give at least 20 or 30 percent of the shares, otherwise there will be no negotiation at all.
Therefore, we can only continue to hold on, and wait until most of the capital notices the "shark fry" of 67.com, so that we can occupy the leading position in the negotiations.
But again, money!
……
……
At eight o'clock in the evening of Friday on the 5th, Ren Shaobo was still buried in the thick office documents, and there was a knock at the door.
"Please come in. ”
The secretary pushed open the door and said, "Mr. Ren, Miss is here." ”
Ren Shaobo raised his head when he heard this, and a kind smile appeared on his unsmiling face, and said, "Oh~ yes." ”
As the words fell, a smile appeared behind the secretary, and he said coquettishly: "Dad~"
Ren Shaobo smiled and asked, "Why are you here?"
After Ren Yingying and the other secretaries retreated, she closed the door and said, "Mom heard that you worked overtime at night, so she specially asked me to come over to check the post." ”
Ren Shaobo suddenly laughed, "In my heart, apart from your mother, how can I fit other women." ”
The father and daughter laughed a few words, Ren Yingying took a chair and sat down in front of the desk, and said, "I heard from my mother that Cao Zijin is now vigorously streamlining the group's personnel, and he has also cut several projects led by his mother, is there such a thing?"
Ren Shaobo removed the smile on his face and said, "You don't have to worry about these things, your task now is to study hard and wait for the admission notice in the United States in June." ”
Ren Yingying smiled and said, "I'll talk about reading later, and I'll show you something." ”
"What?"
Ren Yingying took out a document from her satchel and handed it to Ren Shaobo, "Dad, look at it, this is the ranking list of national Internet companies after January this year." ”
Ren Shaobo took it and looked at it, and after seeing the name of 67.com, his wise eyes flickered, and finally raised his head and asked, "What do you mean?"
Ren Yingying said: "I have heard the analysis of professionals, China's Internet industry is facing a blowout era, and now the Internet is divided, and major companies have rushed to land on the beach, at the expense of investing huge sums of money.
And our family is still doing the traditional industry slowly.
I do not deny the huge benefits of electronic products in the future, but as an OEM factory, most of it has been earned by upstream companies, and there is not much left in our pockets, and when we encounter a recession, we will even lose money. ”
Hearing his daughter's words, Ren Shaobo was very relieved.
It's a good thing that my daughter has grown up and knows that she cares about business.
"Then according to what you said, what should we do?"
Ren Yingying stood up and pointed to the 67 cities on the list, and said firmly: "Invest in this company......"
