rejected the kindness of Duan Ping of Kenny Foreign Company, but Xia Yu was officially aroused, and before he set off, Luo Dong began to take the initiative to search for suitable trading partners.

Because it didn't have the energy to take care of business cooperation in overseas markets, Polestar's idea was still to find a trading company that specialized in this kind of business, and clearly proposed to do it directly as a brand management model.

This kind of brand management usually requires the trading company to take out part of the capital to participate in the cooperative operation and share part of the sales profits, which is somewhat risky.

And it turns out that Duan Ping's reminder is not unreasonable.

Luo Dong contacted a total of four companies in the next two days, two of which were Hong Kong Island veteran foreign firms, a Malaysian trading company, and an American company.

The first three replies were all reluctant to take the deal unless Polestar made a bigger concession on the price.

In Xia Yu's instructions to Luo Dong, he had already put the FOB price of cooperative exports a little lower than the ex-factory price, so how could he make any more concessions?

The last American Aifeng Trading did not say anything about reducing the price, but proposed a VAM agreement: Aifeng fulfilled all the terms of cooperation within the framework of the agreement, such as the selection of local market partners and the cooperation of market solutions.

However, if the sales of the Polaris series products do not meet the agreement between the two parties, Aifeng's expected revenue will be borne by Polestar Electronics, which is about a minimum of $1.2 million a year, and if the sales volume exceeds the expectations, the agency fee will be normally commissioned.

This is somewhat of an overlord clause, but it is also linked to risk, and it is normal for these trading companies to be unwilling to suffer losses.

To put it bluntly, I am still not optimistic enough about Polestar's products!

Xia Yu was also a little helpless about this. But after all, I couldn't just give up, so I returned to Yangcheng. I discussed it with Luo Dong again.

Luo Dong's idea was simple, he directly proposed: "Let's just find an agency! The agency fee is paid in full. In the past two days, I think that as long as you find a suitable local agent, the cost performance of Polaris K1 is definitely marketable. ”

Xia Yu was puzzled: "Oh, so the risk will all fall on us! Polestar relies on word-of-mouth marketing and low-cost direct sales in China, but these two have to start from scratch in overseas markets, especially the direct sales part is directly impossible, isn't it a little reckless?"

Luo Dong shook his head and continued: "Take the current K1 as an example, even if you count part of the channel fee, there is still a lot of profit margin. I believe that there are also plays in the overseas local market. But it's better to have a publicity stunt, such as winning an international award or something, it's just a little bit difficult......"

"International Awards? CES is just about to be held, we can try it!"

"This, CES is just a little difficult, this is the world's most authoritative electronics show, and several awards are focused on the field of design and functional innovation......" Luo Dong was a little unconfident.

CES stands for Consumer Electronics Show, which began in 1967 and is hosted by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA). Held annually in the famous casino city of Las Vegas, it is currently one of the largest, highest level and most influential consumer electronics exhibitions in the world.

Huaguo Company has participated in the exhibition over the years, mainly home appliance brands and computer brands, and few have won awards. That selection was much stricter.

Xia Yu certainly understands this. I also participated in two sessions before I was reborn, although I only went to visit.

"It's you thinking too much, we can't win the jackpot. As long as the various categories of awards are operated, they can still be blurred, and when the time comes, they can be blurred. How many ordinary users can tell the difference? And the domestic market can also be popular!"

He is still thinking about another Polestar product, the next generation of Polestar Electronics, which was jointly designed by Yang Chunsheng and Fan Pingze, and the development of the new MP3 machine, which is positioned in the mid-to-high-end market, and is now in the final stage of design.

Yang Chunsheng said on the phone in the past two days that the design plan is almost there. is waiting for the authorized integration of BBE sound effects on Xia Yu's side, and the new design of the independent mold is also provided by Xia Yu according to the memory of later generations, and it has also reached the final stage.

Maybe this MP3, tentatively named Polaris S1, will be able to catch up with CES in early 2005!

Luo Dong nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll try to contact a few more trading companies and take the discretionary agency model!"

"Well, let's do it first! Leave the CES to me!"

During the trip to Yanjing, Xia Yu set half of the three tasks set for himself, and the most regrettable thing is that there is no clear progress here under the authorization of BBE.

He called Hu Xiafei's marketing director in charge of the Asia-Pacific market at BBESound, but the other party did not give him a chance to continue the conversation, and directly expressed his disinterest, and the tone with an obvious western California accent even had a non-obvious mockery.

Xia Yu can't help it, this is the current predicament of Huaguo Company, and it is not a matter of time or a half to change it.

He had to continue to communicate with Polestar officials and start to understand the specifics of the embedded BBE solution with its own license.

There are old acquaintances on Philips' side, and although Jia Feirong is not directly responsible, he also introduced the people who are docked, but the price is a bit high.

Another British company has a slightly lower price, but there are a lot of additional terms, and Xia Yu is a little hesitant.

……

In the past two days after returning to Yangcheng, Xia Yu reported to the school, but after leaving for a week, the company had a lot of things to deal with or asked for leave as usual.

He still had a good chat with his uncle first, and he had already untied the knot on the phone before, but this time in addition to talking about it in person, he still focused on the management of Polestar.

After all, it has been established for a short time, and even if the company has given a small amount of equity to the senior management team after the share reform, the necessary restrictions and supervision will still be necessary in the future.

Another thing is that the construction of the headquarters in the third phase of Yangcheng Science City is about to start, and there are a lot of miscellaneous things to keep an eye on, Xia Mingde decided to focus on this side with all his might, and Xia Yu is still fully responsible for the company's affairs.

As for the reconstruction of the channel procurement department, it is also imperative, and Liu Mingsheng is still staring at this area, with the remaining few people to maintain the operation. The search for a new channel director is also underway.

Coupled with the fact that the plan for Pengcheng's new flagship store has been determined, the follow-up promotion of the marketing plan, and the final decision on some small problems in R&D and design, Xia Yu has been busy in the past two days.

Finally got the main thing done. Only then did he have the time to ask Xiao Wenjing about the follow-up of the Blue Star investment.

Xiao Wenjing's lazy tone came: "You can rest assured that this girl is doing things! The money has been transferred, and I have also had a good chat with them separately." I have to say that the three founders you chose are not bad!"

"Oh, what's the specific situation? Can you get into Xiao Xueba's eyes?"

Besides, Song Tao and Yang Bo are also senior returnees, and their abilities are obvious! Skye Network and Douban's products are still in embryonic form, and they will be launched a little later, but the young Li Xiang is very powerful, after talking to you last time, he actually took someone to work overnight, and the number of models on the website has been improved a lot!"

This is probably one of the reasons why Li Xiang, a kid who dropped out of high school in 81, was able to become famous later. Talent plus hard work, and then grasp the opportunity, is always the only way to succeed.

"Yes. You tell him that there is no need to rush online, the user experience must be done well, the internal stage can be a little longer, and the media attribute advantages of their operation team must be used well, and strive to be a blockbuster when the time comes!"

"Yes, yes, you've told him once, I won't grind anymore, this kid has his own measure, it's really emotional!"

"Then you can come back?"

"How. You've only been separated for two days and you've missed me!"

"I think it's time to come back in the past two days and find that Polestar's financial accounts should be coordinated, so I want to kill you!"

"Xia Yu, you bastard!"

Hung up the phone. Xia Yu was a little stunned.

Xiao Wenjing's joking "miss me" really made him throb a little.

The trip to Yanjing, an ignorant trip to the fourth middle school. Let him temporarily go to Zhang Xiao's mind for a short time, and save it for the opportunity in the future. With a smiling character, he went directly to the door and stalked. It's definitely not something she can accept lightly.

And for Liang Qian's thoughts on the school's side, Xia Yu himself also has a comprehensive understanding. There are feelings, but there are probably a lot of regrets from the past life, and now I always feel that something is missing.

The current relationship between the two is also tepid, which is related to his own personality not taking the initiative and being too busy with work, but maybe it is also the reason why the relationship has not reached that point?

is almost Xiao Xueba, who gets along day and night, has a very high degree of compatibility in mind and concept, and several shallow exchanges have also made him have a lot of strange feelings. After all, this body is a 27-year-old soul, and he even thinks that if he was himself back then, and he didn't have a smile, maybe he would take the initiative to pursue Xiao Wenjing in this state!

I guess so......

Xia Yu, who was sitting in the office in a daze, was in a daze, and suddenly an urgent knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.

It was Zhang Mei, who had completed her studies, and she said a little eagerly: "Mr. Xia, Director Zheng Wei Zheng just rushed back to the company and said that there is something urgent to report to you!"

Oh, didn't Zheng Wei choose a location for the flagship store in Pengcheng, why did he come back early?

Xia Yu didn't have time to think about it, "Let her come in and say! Well, you call Mingsheng too!"

Zheng Wei rushed over a little dusty, she just got off the car and rushed to the company, while Zhang Mei went out, she didn't care about drinking water and reported directly to Xia Yu in a whisper: "Mr. Xia, I inquired about the news from a friend in Pengcheng, and I happened to know that the company that hoarded Philips SAA7750+ chips on a large scale is the 7-Up computer in Yangcheng!"

It's this company!

Xia Yu was a little confused, he knew a little about this well-known old IT technology company in China, but he didn't know much, but he knew that not long ago, the company that started as a computer machine and accessories was not weak, and it had just changed its name to Qixi Holdings and was successfully listed on the Pengcheng Stock Exchange, how did he get together with Gao Wenlong?

He hurriedly asked Zheng Wei to do a good job, brought her a glass of water and said, "Mr. Zheng, don't worry, slowly tell me what you know!" (to be continued......)
