Chapter 156: Year-end Summary [Two in One]
At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the half-day visit ended.
Outside the park, Li Ming and the four of them each held the big white souvenirs they bought, and happily said goodbye to Zhang Fan and others.
"Great God, let's go! There is time to come to our school to play. Molly opened the car doorway.
"Yes." Zhang Fan looked at her and Li Ming and smiled: "If you send photos when you go back, remember to deal with my face, it's not cool to take the lead brother and lose his mystery." β
"Hehe......" The four girls covered their mouths and chuckled, Yue Linfei patted Li Ming and said, "Don't worry, boss, our Xiaoming is a PS master." Go back and add a 'leading big brother' mask to you in the photo, which will definitely shock all netizens! β
Li Ming nodded and said, "Goodbye Zhang Fan." β
"Hmm." Zhang Fan waved goodbye, Gao Tingting patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, fans should care, and girlfriends should care even more." Didn't you say you were going to Xiaojun School to attend the party today? It's past 5 o'clock now. I guess it will take you another hour to go. β
As soon as she reminded him, Zhang Fan looked at his mobile phone and said, "Then I'll go first, you ......."
"We don't have to worry about you." Gao Tingting grabbed Su Xiu, pulled Feng Hong and said, "Mr. Zhang gave each of us 1,000 red envelopes today, wouldn't it be worthy of your heart if we didn't spend it?" So we waited to go back to the company and meet everyone, and then we went shopping in the business district. β
"That's fine." Zhou Yang opened the car door and said, "Then we'll go first." β
After a brief separation, Zhang Fan and Zhou Yang got on the bus and went to Pengda, where there was a "Campus Christmas Party" activity from 6 o'clock to 8 o'clock tonight. Yesterday, Zhang Fan agreed with Xuejun to participate.
It was already 6:15 a.m. when Zhang Fan and the others arrived. After three rounds of the show, I came to the event hall to see Li Yue and Li Shishi, and everyone sat together to enjoy tonight's happy time.
When the night Christmas bells end. The next day, Zhang Fan and his company partners entered the preparations for the '2009 New Year's Day Event', and it was the end of the month in the blink of an eye.

December 31st, Spark Studio.
Near noon, the Spark studio was still tense and busy, and the noisy sound was like entering the New York stock exchange. In the past two days, everyone has been working from 5 to 9, and they can't wait to save all their meal time.
"Meow~"
On the floor, the little female cat Rhubarb seems to be infected by this atmosphere. Running excitedly in the footsteps of everyone. One will run to this side, the other will run to that side. It's chasing those heels that come and go.
gave up Yuan Tiantian's high heels. Rhubarb fell in love with Gao Tingting's red shoes and jumped on them excitedly.
Gao Tingting took two steps, squatted down and patted Rhubarb, pointed to Zhang Fan's office and said, "Rhubarb, go and play with your eldest brother." My sister is not available now. β
"Heh..."The female colleagues around chuckled, and saw Rhubarb running towards Zhang Fan's office happily.
got up with a smile, Gao Tingting appeared in the afterglow of "Happy Farm", and looked up to see that it was Lu Hui who was playing the game.
"Lu Hui, have you done the drawings you designed? Don't ink, send it directly to Yuan Tiantian when it's ready. β
"Oh, okay Sister Tingting." Lu Hui hurriedly shrunk the game window, and when Gao Tingting turned her head, she began to steal vegetables again.
"Tingting~" Yuan Tiantian saw it and secretly pulled Gao Tingting who came over. She turned her head and said, "It's okay, she won't be able to do it for long anyway." β
Saying that, Gao Tingting returned to work: "Xiao Zhen." Your tomorrow's 'Big White Membership Advertisement' will be brighter in tone, and it will stimulate the eyes at first glance. β
"The text is golden, and the three-dimensional effect does not have to be too ......"
"Okay, Sister Tingting." Designer Jane nodded.

Web workspace.
Qian Yutang and the team designers were gathered in front of the computer to discuss some details of the 'Dabai official website design'.
Through the screen, we can see that the design style of Dabai official website is the same as that of the forum, and the elements tend to be simple, neat and flat.
There are two web skins, one is the New Year's Day version. One is the regular version. The overall color tone of the two versions is the same, with the slight difference being that the upper banner is not quite the same. The New Year's Day edition has the words 'Congratulations on the New Year'.
In terms of website structure and layout. Except: Homepage, Dabai Mobile, Dabai Earphone, Dabai Peripherals, Login, Customer Service, Community, and Shopping Search Bar.
The rest of the arrangement is a 'card design'.
This design absorbs the flat style while placing product images in cards and tiling on a web page.
When there are few products, the card is enlarged to show off the existing product as perfectly as possible.
When there are many products, you can assign different product cards to occupy the size of the web page according to the priority of the products you want to promote.
At present, there are not many products displayed on the website, only the two main products of the big white mobile phone and the newly produced 'big white noodle earphone'.
In addition, there are some mobile phone electronic peripheral products, such as: memory cards, mobile phone shells, and digital jΓΉ line charging cases, which occupy most of the web pages.
The small card products below are flowing or dynamically displaying the big white peripheral products. These are all secondary, and they are mainly added to enrich the page, and they will be removed when the product is added later.
If users want to buy Dabai peripherals, they can find them through [Dabai peripherals] in the navigation bar of the guΓ² homepage.
Click on [Dabai Peripherals], and the page layout looks more like a miniature Taobao.
The peripheral products produced by the four companies of Hongguang Industry are displayed according to various categories, mainly including: stationery, cups, small commodities, commonly used in life, as well as single products such as white slippers and pillows that are currently selling very well on Taobao.
The official website adds the [Dabai Peripherals] section, mainly to provide community netizens and fans with a 'genuine purchase channel for Dabai peripherals'.
According to Hongguang Industrial's investigation, some Taobao merchants are selling counterfeit Dabai products under the banner of their company.
So at the beginning of the month, the bosses of the four companies sat down with Zhang Fan to talk about this matter, and finally decided to open a [Dabai peripheral products online store] on the official website of Dabai to carry out authentic online direct sales.
In fact, this is equivalent to an e-commerce of real yΓ n, and the popularity and sales are good in the future, so you can consider introducing other non-Dabai brand products.

Software workspace.
Wu Ge is leading people to deal with several compatibility problems fed back by Old Wave Technology.
Tomorrow on the 1st they are going to update the version once. The new version of the Dabai system will be flashed into 2,000 engineering machines, and the selected 'Dabai Campus Experience Ambassadors' will be able to use the latest version of the product.
In the hardware area, Li Jianguo left the company with people early in the morning. Go to the production center to check the progress of the engineering prototype, and the remaining engineers are still optimizing the hardware.
Screen optimization is basically settled.
In terms of mobile phone power consumption, the energy-saving solution and system computing modification can increase the standby time of the mobile phone by 40%, increase the use time by 14%, and reduce the heating of the mobile phone.
This technology is independently developed by Xinghuo and has applied for a patent.
The camera is also optimized for two months. Double the quality of your photos and take photos during the day on a smartphone.
When taking photos at night, there is a flash to assist the shooting. Also higher than Apple. But once you turn off the flashing lights, the photos taken are much worse.
This difference is that the system is different, and the second is that Apple is much richer than Xinghuo in terms of camera technology. If you want to surpass Apple's camera, you still need long-term optimization and technology accumulation.
Recently, the hardware department and software department are under Zhang Fanti. Plans are being developed for an 'Imaging Engine System' and an 'Optical Image Stabilization System'.
The role of the 'Imaging Engine' is to enhance the display of the screen.
The general idea: It is to make the screen look clearer within the limited screen pixels. Even low-quality photos and videos can get better clear vision.
Sony is a leader in this technology.
'Optical image stabilization' is used for photographing.
The goal is to improve the photo effect and allow the phone to take high-quality photos at low pixels.
The general improvement method is to obtain photos of different image qualities by secretly and quickly taking continuous photos, and then through optical calculation, adjust all the continuous photos at once, and finally combine several continuous photos into one. The result is an extremely high-quality photo.
And so on. The photos taken by a 5-million-pixel camera are more than just 5 million-pixel cameras!
It's the overlap of several 5-megapixel photos, and Apple will rely on this technology in the future. It has been beating the tens of millions of cameras in the same industry with 8 million cameras.
Recently, Zhang Fantong GuΓ² Future Broadcasting obtained the general principle of this technology.
Of course, even if the principle of the patent is known, the resistance encountered by the R&D personnel is very large.
The first thing to overcome is continuous shooting, which now requires two or three seconds to take a shot, and if you shorten the continuous shooting to a level that the user will not notice, the difficulty can be imagined.
The other is the 'optical computing system'.
In this regard, Xinghuo has no technical accumulation at all. It can only be used as a reference through a few existing technologies.
These are the Spark aspects, and Weixin has also been making rapid progress in the past two months.
All projects. The Seadog Browser is progressing the fastest, and the current version of the Seadog Browser can be launched as an official version.
Another 'Panda instant messaging software' has developed a 'real yΓ n version'.
Needless to say, the main features are 'Text Chat' and 'Voice Chat'. The text is not as bloated as Penguin Chat, light and concise, and with the flat design, the theme completely returns to the chat and social aspects.
In terms of voice chat, the designer absorbed Zhang Fanti's '1 minute' solution, where the user first recorded the voice through the guΓ² recording system and then sent it to the other party. Recordings are up to 1 minute. It is a nature of voice chat with the future of 'prestige' and 'Mi Chat'.
However, due to the backwardness of audio compression technology, the recorded voice is not only large in size, but also has unclear sound quality. The delivery process takes longer than text chat and consumes a lot of traffic.
Now everyone is waiting for Mr. Hacker, and only the audio compression technology he demonstrated in the virus can make up for Panda's shortcomings in this regard.

Spark Chairman's Office.
Zhang Fan looked at the progress of the project sent by Su Xiu and nodded frequently, at present, it seems that 97% of the projects that should be completed this month have been completed, and the company's busy project today is actually preparing for next year's New Year's Day.
"It's good, I'm tired these days, right?" Zhang Fan put down the project book and smiled.
Su Xiu nodded and sat down: "It's a little, but after dealing with today, everyone can be relaxed on New Year's Day." β
"Hmm." Zhang Fan said: "It's not true to say that the beginning of the world is difficult......
As he spoke. Feng Hong walked in with the "08 Company Income Report", and Gao Tingting and Gao Le followed.
"Zhang Fan, guess how much the company has earned this year?" Gao Tingting sat down with a large white coffee cup.
Zhang Fan smiled: "Have you earned back the money I invested?" β
"You can't get back on your investment. But it can cover a "fireworks plan" plus all of our salary expenses, and the money you buy for five minutes. Gao Tingting said with a smile.
"So much?" Zhang Fan looked surprised, and calculated in his heart: the investment in the "Fireworks Plan" is close to 30 million, the employee salary, five insurances and one housing fund, and the meal and housing subsidy cost 10 million yuan, and the acquisition of five minutes is also 10 million.
If you want to cover these, you must earn at least 50 million yuan this year!
If that's the case, that's a pretty remarkable number.
Because the phone is not on sale. It is equivalent to relying entirely on the expansion of the Dabai brand and the two pieces of "Happy Farm", and can earn more than 50 million, which shows that the brand of "Dabai" has been very successful!
And it's only been four months since September. A profit of 50 million yuan in four months is a figure explained by 'looking up' for any newly established business.
Zhang Fan was a little excited and asked, "How much is the specific income?" β
"Close to 60 million yuan!"
Feng Hong handed the "Year-end Financial Report" to Zhang Fan and said: ""Dabai Happy Farm" has earned 10.7 million yuan since it has been running in the past two months, and we share it with the five-minute company 5:5. 5.35 million yuan per person. β
"Tianle Company operated their "Ten Billion Plan" in our forum last month, which also brought us 5 million in revenue."
"Sold the right to use the Dabai image of Pengfa Group for three months, with an income of 8 million."
"Reached the "Dabai Brand Expansion" with Huacheng Group, and they use our Dabai image for 20 million a year."
"These add up to 38.35 million. The rest is what we earned from the four companies of Red Light and Lesen. β
"The four of them sold Dabai peripheral products in the past two months, with a total net profit of 42 million yuan. According to their 5:5 sharing agreement with us, we can get 21 million yuan. β
"In the final calculation, 21 million + 38.35 million, the final number is 59.35 million yuan."
Hearing this, the corners of Zhang Fan's mouth unconsciously smiled: "Say so: minus the game aspect." We made 54 million from Dabai. β
"It should be 56 million." Gao Tingting said: "The hottest thing in Dabai Happy Farm is still 'Dabai Farmer', with a total of 500,000 people buying 10 yuan per month, and I don't think there is a Dabai image." Game revenue is reduced by a minimum of half. β
"Bonus now!"
"Hehe......" everyone chuckled.
After a few jokes, Zhang Fan asked about the 'hardware chip procurement work', he expected to complete the stocking of 1 million mobile phones within 2 months, and there was no problem in terms of production capacity, the only thing lacking was funds.
According to the calculation of patent fees and mobile phone hardware, the cost of producing a mobile phone is as high as 1,500. 1 million units require an investment of 1.5 billion yuan.
At present, Zhang Fan has taken out the 100 million he earned from Liu Tao and ordered 100,000 units. Next, Zhang Fan discussed with the management staff and customized three sets of solutions to solve the problem:
1. Through the pre-order method of guΓ² products, after selling a batch, use the money earned to produce and schedule the next batch.
But this kind of shipment is too slow. Because there is a delivery and payment process during the sales period, it takes at least 15 to 30 days from the time the user receives the goods to the time Zhang Fan gets the money.
During this period, you may also encounter supply chain problems with hardware manufacturers, and it will take at least two months to see the next batch of mobile phones after selling the first batch of mobile phones, and even wait for half a year before the next batch can be released.
This is tantamount to giving other manufacturers time to catch up, such as Tianle Company, which has sufficient capital channels. With Lei Jun and others joining, Tianle will definitely be reborn!
If Zhang Fan encounters obstacles in delivery, then the advantage may be lowered in the future and a large number of potential users will be lost.
2. Bank loan, which is the most suitable for Zhang Fan's current situation. However, the loan of more than one billion yuan does not mean that you can get it, and it is difficult to get this money according to the current market size of Dabai.
3. Accept the investment method. Now the giants on the Internet are very optimistic about the development of Dabai, as long as they release their voices, it should not be difficult to get an investment of 1.5 billion.
What's more, Zhang Fan also has the phone number of a Chinese-funded company on the phone, and she proposed to invest in Xinghuo before Dabai appeared.
But the question is after accepting the investment: who has the equity and how is it distributed?
In the future, it is certain that Dabai mobile phones will be sold, but judging from the current situation of Dabai, the investment of 1.5 billion yuan will at least share about 30-50% of Dabai's shares. It's not a good deal.
Finally, there is another way to borrow money.
Everyone was talking, and at this time, they saw Zhou Yang come in with two managers of Xinghuo: "Damn, those banks are too poor!" β
"Don't want to take out a loan?" Zhang Fan asked with a smile.
"Willing is willing, they borrow too little, the highest can only borrow 200 million. Still an old friend of my dad. As soon as I heard it, I forgot it. β
Saying that, Zhou Yang took a glass of water and sat down and said, "I don't think it's troublesome, I still have a wife of 2 billion, so the boss will use it." Success cannot be allowed to be stuck on funds. β
"Okay." Zhang Fan smiled: "Your 2 billion is an investment in Dabai, and I will give you 10% of Dabai's shares." β
"Damn! So much? β
Zhou Yang didn't say anything back, he was really taken aback by the 10% stake given by Zhang Fan.
In his opinion, Dabai is only encountering the initial financial problem, as long as he passes this stage, he will be able to enter the 10 billion enterprise club within 1 to 2 years. The back is even higher.
2 billion for 10% Dabai shares is too cost-effective.
"Hehe, what's so embarrassing? Why don't I borrow some more from the old man, and let's hoard 2 million orders at a time? 1 million will be produced first, and the next 1 million will be used to prepare for production. When the money from the sale comes back, the production here is also completed, and it is just in time for the supply. I feel that 1 million is a bit compact, and if there is a little trouble in the middle, it will still affect the consistency of our shipments. β
"Don't forget that we have a gambling contract with Liu Tao and them. They have more money than we do. β
Gao Tingting observed her words and saw that neither of these two brothers wanted to take advantage of each other, and said with a smile: "If Mr. Zhou is still smart, then 3 billion for 10% shares, I will represent our big white tongguΓ²." What about Sister Hong? β
Feng Hong secretly praised in her heart, nodded and smiled: "I also agree." Congratulations to Mr. Zhou for officially becoming our second leader! β
Zhou Yang laughed heartily and said, "Then it's decided." I'll bring my wife Ben tomorrow. β
Zhang Fan was very moved by Zhou Yang's help, and picked up the phone to call Lawyer He, when suddenly an unfamiliar number came in.
"Hello, I'm Zhang Fan."
"Zhang Fan? Are you ZF Future? On the other side of the phone, the caller's voice was young, with a hint of nervousness and excitement.
Zhang Fan's eyes turned, and suddenly his face showed joy, and said, "You are the hacker?" β
"Hackers?" Zhou Yang, Feng Hong, Su Xiu and others looked at each other at the same time, and Gao Tingting immediately walked to the glass window behind Zhang Fan to check.
I saw a man in a white T-shirt and a crossbody bag looking down and making a phone call.
"Look, isn't it him?"
Everyone quickly walked over to check, and at this time, the caller in front of the building seemed to hear something, and looked up at the window where Zhang Fan was.
"Yes, I just changed the number of 'Winter Solstice Activities'. Sorry boss. I was also doing it for fun......"
"Hehe, what's so embarrassing when you call me boss?" Zhang Fan beckoned to the window and said, "Come on, our company is on the sixth floor." By the way, what's your name? β
"Okay boss. My name is Ke Xiaobai. β
