Chapter 148: Suffer a dumb loss

For His Holiness, this doesn't seem to suit the reporters in Sohu, especially the entertainment reporters, who don't have this concept in their eyes. The financial reporter couldn't find out the real reason why Kyle joined Hanhua Electronics, and he could wait for the other party to announce the reason before reporting.

But the entertainment version of the bastards has long been accustomed to having to make news if there is no news. With Zhao Wei signing a contract with SOHU Tesco, they immediately turned over the between her and Li Jiaming and stirred it up again.

Fortunately, Li Jiaming has not done anything too unseemly, and the editor of the financial edition is worried that it may damage the interests of the company, so he can only speculate how much net worth this guy can have after the successful listing of SOHU. After Lifang Network is listed, how much net worth should he have, and whether he can become the richest man in the mainland before the age of 30 and replace his brother-in-law's position to match the hype of the entertainment version.

The editor of the entertainment edition hyped the brother-in-law of the future richest man, who used to be the standard soft rice king, whether he would marry Zhao Wei in the future, and wanted to step on him to support Zhao Wei. Anyway, in a word, even if it is a moral kidnapping, you have to stir up this topic, so that the new Internet SOHU Tesco can take advantage of this hot topic.

Li Jiaming?

When he was at his poorest, he asked me to borrow NT$2 million, and owed me 300 yuan for supper, 150 yuan for a bus ticket, and 420 yuan for phone bills...... , these are all Zhao Wei paid him back. - Su Youpeng

That kid is very funny, when we used to make films, he stayed on the set whenever he had time. I asked him what he was doing, and he said that he was too ugly, and he finally found a beautiful girlfriend, so he had to pay attention. - Zhang Tielin

It is no accident that Jiaming can have his current achievements. He was the hardest-working, most talented young man I had ever met, and when he used to visit the studio, he used to sit alone in the corner and read books on economics and philosophy in English. - Qiong Yao

Despicable!

Li Jiaming, who was despised by the little sister and the full sister, could only scold those bottomless grandsons like this. I sent Zhao Wei 2.4 million shares to SOHU Tesco, not to mention, is it interesting to make a fuss about the bad things in the past?

But these days, it's not news that a dog bites a man, it's news that a man bites a dog, and is it news that a billionaire finds a female celebrity to be his girlfriend? A female celebrity goes all out to fund her boyfriend's success, and that's pure love and warm news! If a boyfriend abandons the girlfriend who funded him after getting ahead, it will be a big scandal!

Relying on such despicable hype, Sohu Tesco became famous and became the object of attention of netizens. But what disappointed them was that although the publicity said that there were more than 50,000 registered users and 1,200 online transactions that day, in fact, less than 8,000 people registered, transacted 6 transactions, and earned 1 yuan and 6 cents. The only one who has made a real profit may be Lifang Network, which sold 500,000 for the SOSO instant messaging software developed by Sohu Tesco.

It doesn't matter, this is originally a money-burning business, Li Jiaming and Lao Zhang reached a private agreement, and SOHU immediately took out $10 million in exchange for 15% of SOHU's shares after listing, and inflated the valuation of the website. The encroachment of major shareholders on the interests of minority shareholders was fully reflected at this moment.

The publicity is still not enough, the website has been open for seven or eight days, and the registered users are only 100,000. Lao Zhang, who came to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology to get the approval document, also joined in the fun, and talked eloquently at the gate less than three meters away from the armed police on duty, in front of the reporters who were squatting there.

As we all know, our group of entertainment reporters at SOHU are the most bottomless reporters, and they have only one goal - click-through rate. However, there is no major difference in what is reported.'

The house was bought by Zhao Wei, and the furniture, electrical appliances, food, clothing, and use seemed to have been bought by her, and he hadn't even paid the utility bills and property fees. Even the money for Zhao Wei's endorsement of SOHU Tesco this time was used by Li Jiaming to fill the hole in Lifang. ’

"How do I know? Zhao Wei played with us when she was a freshman, we were all so poor at that time, and we often caught her to pay for the guests, and we didn't know about the little she had with Li Jiaming? Yesterday when we had dinner together, Zhao Wei also said that she had no money again, and the endorsement fees she just earned were given to Li Jiaming, and that kid really did it!"

I don't dare to say that, that kid is ruthless, once we had a quarrel over business, and we almost got into a fight. With my small size, can I still do a barbarian like him?'

The solemn gate of the national ministry has become a place for entertainment news releases?

Some leading cadres passing by couldn't stand it anymore, and just wanted to stop it, but when they looked at Secretary Sima who was waiting at the door of the duty room, they quickly pretended not to see it. Everyone is a smart person, and they all know that this is deliberate, firstly, sohu relies on this to eat, and secondly, to hype up the listing.

That's true, that's what Minister Wu of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology thinks, if SOHU's stock price can soar after listing, borrow a door for them to speculate. The money taken back from the Americans, not spent at home?

Lao Zhang is also a measured person, performing in front of reporters for two or three minutes, and immediately carried a briefcase into the compound and went to the Personnel Department to get the approval of the marketing authorization.

With the last hurdle to the listing being removed, SOHU's long-awaited roadshow was also intensively undergoing final rehearsals. The foreign media is not as good as the domestic ones, and any tricky and weird questions will be asked, how can you do it without rehearsing a few times?

Unlike the elated SOHU, Hanhua Technology upstairs is very busy.

The sample finally came out, and the effect made the technicians excited, but the last trace of luck for Wang Zhidong and Ren Yanpin was gone. The iPod developed after spending nearly 100 million RMB is like a work of art, very beautiful, very user-friendly, and does not crash, but the playback time is too short. Even if Wang Zhidong simplified the software to the simplest and used Sanyo's best lithium battery, it could only play for about two and a half hours. However, by removing those operating software, the playback time can be increased to four and a half hours, which barely meets the sales requirements.

This is not to blame Ren Yanpin, the current electronic components are just this performance, even if the most advanced technology is used Qualcomm QC6521 chip, it can only achieve this performance. If you want to develop an iPod that can play for more than four hours, there are only two ways: one is to wait for the better QC6522 to come out, and the other is to remove those system software and use a lower-end CPU to reduce power consumption.

Wang Zhidong has never made electronic products, but he is also very aware of the two-and-a-half-hour playback time, even if the iPod is beautiful, it has no practical value. In other words, the development of this product failed, and we can only hope that new electronic components will appear as soon as possible.

How can this be said to be a failure? It should be said that it has trained the team and accumulated skills!

As the head of the company, Li Jiaming will not blame anyone, and will cheer everyone up. Ren Yanpin had predicted in advance, it was he and Kyle who decided to forcibly develop it, and prepared to use it as a technical reserve in case of failure.

Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills. The company is in the initial period, and it does not pretend to be a vice wise man, otherwise how can this group of people with higher IQ and education than themselves be convinced?

What's more, this product is not a failure at all, at most it has not achieved the expected goal. Just follow Kyle's solution to put the software system on a PC to run, top 300. Commodities are commodities, as long as they are stronger than similar commodities, then there is an advantage, and then they can be sold!

"Sister Ren, not this time, let's continue to do it! I don't believe in evil, failure is success, a few more mothers are afraid that they won't be able to give birth to cubs? With this experience and technology accumulation, I believe it will be easier next time!"

It can only be like this, it took nearly 200 million yuan but it is such a result, no matter how psychologically prepared Ren Yanpin and Wang Zhidong are, they can only accept such a result. Pure technicians like them will not be satisfied with a simplified version of a defective product, and they will pursue a perfect epoch-making product.

"Well, everyone has been busy for more than half a year, can you take a vacation?"

Of course, everyone did their best, and it was because of the expected objective reasons that they retreated to make a simplified version.

"Okay, they won't take a break, how can they work? Let everyone take all the vacation they have saved, and the company will pay them as usual. Oh, Sister Ren, you can't take a vacation, you have to cooperate with Kyle to arrange a trial birth. ”

"Okay, then I'll go first."

When Ren Yanpin and Wang Zhidong went to arrange employee vacations, Li Jiaming said regretfully: "Kyle, we missed a great opportunity for free publicity. ”

Kyle, who was also very satisfied with the effect of such a product, was stunned and asked: "Boss, who told you that you can advertise on the roadshow?"

Li Jiaming hurriedly gestured, in exchange for Kyle's shaking his head, "No, no, the roadshow is to introduce and recommend investors, and it is impossible to give you the opportunity to implant software advertising." Even if you put the Hanhua logo on the podium, the TV station will erase it from the news, and how many people will you really see? There will be no more than 1,200 people, because the people sitting in the audience are all managers and brokers of various investment banks, not ordinary investors, and the TV audience cannot see or hear them.

Boss, ordinary Americans don't care about China, in their impression, you are or, or simply a horse coat, braids, women's little feet. ”

Li Jiaming hurriedly said: "You mean, there will be no reporters during the roadshow?"

"Yes, but when the news is broadcast, our logo will be removed, and the news will only be broadcast for more than ten seconds in the financial channel. Boss, what we can think of, the people at ABC and NCC can't think of? Don't think about touching their light unless we pay for it, and the people who care about SOHU are all industry insiders, and ordinary people won't have much interest. ”

Fuck, kyle knows, Goldman Sachs' gang of bastards/eggs won't know? Damn, let Zhang Fox put a show!

Kyle, who was a little tired, shrugged his shoulders, and the other party did not take the initiative to agree to the placement of ads from beginning to end, but the boss took the initiative to ask for it, so you can't blame others for deliberately not saying it, and using this to induce the boss to be fooled.

"What about Yang Zhiyuan?"

"No problem, he can help us get the word out, but we have to promise him one condition. If we need financing to go public, we should give Yahoo priority. ”

That's no problem, but fortunately, Lao Tzu never bets a piece of the treasure, otherwise the fox will be killed. scolded a few times, and Li Jiaming, who was very unhappy, also went to Zhang Zhaoyang for trouble, and was put on a scene without any revenge, is that still him Li Jiaming?

But when he walked to the front desk of SOHU, Li Jiaming, who had already hung the SOHU-00002 badge around his neck, was in a dilemma. Now is the critical moment before the listing, and the fox has to be let go, and it is estimated that people are sure that they will not find trouble in this bone eye, so they use their mistakes as bargaining chips. But if you don't let yourself out, it's really uncomfortable.
