Fan Heng asked the secretary to call Fan Wuxian to go over to have dinner with Boss Zhu. He had just arranged the work of the company's headquarters in the recent period, especially during the Spring Festival, and was talking to Fan Kang, the old brother who came to chat.

As a big customer of Internet acquisitions with a lot of money, Fan Kang's actions in the Internet industry in the past year are not very large, and for some websites that are optimistic about their development, he can always appear just right under Fan Wuxi's suggestion, and then acquire them, and provide sufficient funds for them to continue to develop.

Therefore, Fan Kang has recently added a nickname to the Internet company, called the Fortune Boy.

A lot of things have happened in the past year, especially the Internet industry, where there are so many events that are dizzying, and the bursting of the Internet bubble has awakened the dreams of countless people, which has led to the collapse of Internet companies that have not yet entered the profitable period.

In the middle of last year, a prominent message appeared on Sina.com's homepage that CEO Wang Zhidong had resigned for personal reasons, and at the same time, he also resigned as president and director of the board of directors of Sina.com. The board of directors of Sina.com appointed Mao Daolin, the current operating officer, to take over as executive officer.

After twenty days of chaotic speculation in the national media, a dramatic scene emerged.

Mr. Wang, who wore a blue shirt with the Sina logo and a badge of a Sina employee, declared at a news conference, "I did not resign voluntarily." I didn't sign the papers, they were a surprise attack and they didn't give me a chance to explain. I don't know why. I am still the legal representative of Sina in the legal sense, and I am legally responsible for Sina. I am very responsible to say that I will never run away from my comrades on the front line in the name of so-called personal interests. ”

Wang Zhidong's action has exposed all the internal contradictions in Sina's board of directors.

Almost all public opinion is tilted towards Wang Zhidong, a 33-year-old young man who is the founder of Sina.com, and every director on the board of directors is personally opened to welcome him, but now, these people have joined forces to sweep him out of the house for "personal reasons".

However, from the perspective of capital, there is another fact.

Since its listing, Sina's stock price has fallen from a high of $55 a share to $1.6 a share.

When I opened the Sina stock price chart, I saw a terrible scene.

Sina's shareholders have invested $1.6 billion, with an average cost of $4 per share, and if they don't stem the ongoing decline, everyone will lose all their money.

In the eyes of shareholders, Wang Zhidong, as the CEO, did nothing in the face of this decline, and did not even appear to intend to make a difference, so replacing him was a logical decision.

In a commentary, the financial magazine said that whether it is Sina or Wang Zhidong, the resignation of entrepreneurs is an emotionally painful thing, and it will prove that it is not only foreign capital and technology that have introduced China in the Internet wave. There will also be the rules of the mature market, which will undoubtedly become a classic case of proving the rights of capital and the rationality of entrepreneurs.

Sina's capital did not compromise because of Wang's resistance, and shareholders, including Fan Kang, believe that it is time for a change of manager. Wang Zhidong quickly recovered from the catharsis of his emotions, and a month later, he announced the creation of a new company.

Later, when he participated in a talk show, he said that if a person falls, he must get up immediately, otherwise, if he does not fall to death, he will be trampled to death.

Of course, in the cold winter of the Internet, Wang Zhidong is not the only one who is out and lonely.

Two months after the Sina incident, Wang Juntao, a well-known netizen who founded China's first B2C company, MY8848, also announced his resignation as chairman.

Two months later, China's largest online literary website, Rongshuxia, was sold to the German media giant Bertelsmann at a very low price.

At the beginning, Bertelsmann's offer was 10 million yuan.

During a break in the negotiations, Bertelsmann's representatives ran into the property manager of the rented office building under the banyan tree and learned that the company had been in arrears for several months.

After returning to the negotiating table, Bertelsmann's offer was suddenly reduced to one million yuan, and the founder William Zhu was forced to accept.

Another two months passed. Shenzhen Blue Dot was sold at a low price because of its Chinese Linux software, which was founded by four 25-year-old young people in a coffee house two years ago, and its Chinese Linux software once accounted for 80 percent of the national market, and the market value of Blue Dot stock listed on the OTCBB market on the US third board was as high as $400 million.

It took only six months for the four young men to go from nothing to $400 million, but only a year later, they miraculously returned to square one, with Blue Dot's share price plummeting from $22 to $3.5 cents, and finally a Shenzhen auto parts company became its new owner with a bid of 1 million yuan.

Fan Kang said with some emotion to his younger brother Fan Wuxi, "In this industry, there is never a need to worry about no topic, in fact, in the past year or so, I have experienced too much life, and now I understand that success or failure is such a simple thing." ”

Fan Wuxi said with a smile, "Your thoughts can't be too negative, in fact, in the face of capital, only earning the maximum surplus value is the truth, and everything else is nonsense." If you have the realizations you have just had, you should understand how you should use the capital in your hands and make it even more abundant. In this era of money first, only by mastering one's own capital can one have the strength to face everything, otherwise, everything is not to be discussed. ”

Fan Kang nodded, agreeing with Fan's statement.

In fact, for most Internet practitioners, it was a period of embarrassing youth. Both loved, but also painful, paid, obtained, and ultimately lost, the Internet economy has been extremely painfully subverted the past company development and wealth accumulation model, and ten years after it came to the world, the eternal business law is very cruel and straightforward way to tell all people who are eager to succeed, like every story in the past, all growth must go through suffering and experience, and the future glory will also prove that the crisis is the best teacher, and all the suffering is worth it.

Of course, the past year has been quite a harvest for Fan Wuxi, especially the cooperation with Apple, which has won the agency of the amazing iPod Internet music player, which is the most popular new product after Sony's Alkman in Japan, and will add hundreds of billions of dollars to the wealth of Apple shareholders in the future.

Entering this market at this time is obviously a major strategic decision of Fan's Investment Group, you must know that Fan's Investment Group's current agency rights not only include the agency rights for the entire Chinese mainland and Hong Kong and Taiwan regions, but also include the agency rights for some countries and regions such as Southeast Asia and Central Asia, Russia and other countries and regions that Apple is not capable of, which is a very large market.

Fan Wuxian said a word to his brother Fan Kang. It is very clear that he has a mind, "I can promote the iPod anywhere except for the African market!" ”

In the evening, Fan Wuxian went to the hotel designated by his father to attend the dinner of Fan Heng and Boss Zhu.

Because of the participation of the two Zhengguo-level leaders, today's dinner party has also received special attention, and the security department and the security department have also specially dispatched police support.

In fact, due to the effects of the poisoning of Fan Heng a while ago. The high-level officials have strengthened security measures in this regard, and as for the food and drink, it is even more handled by special personnel, and no longer give those who have a heart a chance.

"Hello chief—" When Fan Wuxian came in, there were immediately guards saluting and greeting.

The ones who can be put in are naturally the guests invited by the two chiefs, and of course they are also the chiefs, which is also the consciousness of the guards, so even if they see that Fan Wuxian is young, before entering the door, they still salute and say hello in a proper manner.

"Hello comrades! Comrades for your hard work! Fan Wuxian also had a bad taste and waved his hand.

"Serve the people!" The guards are also used to practicing in normal times, so they responded casually.

After Fan Wuxian entered the room, he saw that his father Fan Heng was chatting with Boss Zhu, the secretaries of the two were sitting and talking at a point, and the food on the table was almost finished, but both of them were waiting for Fan Wuxian and had not moved their chopsticks.

"You have nothing to do with the guards, you don't have any shape at all." Fan Heng obviously heard the conversation between Fan Wuxian and the guards outside just now, and said with some dissatisfaction.

"Hehe-" Fan Wuxian greeted Boss Zhu first, and then replied, "Isn't it just smooth, it doesn't hurt." But why don't you eat? This master's craftsmanship looks good, and it is appetizing, even if he is busy with state affairs, he can't owe his stomach. ”

"Isn't this waiting for you—" Boss Zhu said with a smile.

The three of them plus the two chief's secretaries, a total of five people, began to eat.

While eating, Fan Wuxian asked casually, "What were you talking about just now?" ”

"Oh, I'm still talking about the restructuring of state-owned enterprises—" Fan Heng replied.

For some things at work, those that don't belong to that kind of secret can be said casually, especially Fan Wuxi's influence in this regard is very great, so whether it is Fan Heng or Boss Zhu, they never shy away from his existence when chatting.

"The chiefs were just talking about the restructuring of Chunlan Group—" Fan Heng's secretary Song Qing said.

It's also a coincidence, although Fan Heng and Boss Zhu have used a lot of secretaries recently, but the ones they brought over during the meal are all handy female secretaries. As Fan Heng's life secretary, Song Qing naturally followed, and Boss Zhu's female secretary was the young girl Fan Wuxian saw in his office last time.

After Fan Wuxian asked, he learned that there are indeed many problems in the property rights reform recently.

The restructuring of property rights itself is an opportunity, and many managers have taken advantage of this opportunity to reap the benefits of it and enrich their own pockets, so in recent times, these property rights scandals have detonated one after another in various places, making people dazzled.

A very conspicuous fact is that in the process of restructuring property rights in a large area, there has been a situation in which it is easy for small enterprises to change, large enterprises to change, nameless enterprises to change, well-known enterprises to change, loss-making enterprises to change, and profitable enterprises to change.

At the beginning of the year, the restructuring of Chunlan Group, which had been a high-profile operation, was officially announced to be stranded.

"Chunlan's restructuring has a strong specimen significance, so in the absence of a proper solution, there are still big problems in their restructuring plan, so all parties have synthesized their opinions and put them down for the time being." Boss Zhu was also more concerned about this, and he explained to Fan Wuxi.

"Oh-that's it-" Fan Wuxian nodded, didn't say anything, just beckoned everyone to eat, and at the same time asked the two female secretaries for drinks, and asked for some liquor for himself, his father, and Boss Zhu.

"The liquor is free, and there may be a meeting later in the evening." Boss Zhu said.

"In such a cold weather, it's okay to drink a little wine, just a glass." Fan Wuxian also responded.

In the end, Boss Zhu still accepted Fan Wuxi's persuasion, poured a small glass and put it in front of him, and took a shallow sip.

Regarding Chunlan's restructuring, Fan Wuxian was still a little concerned, so he asked a few more questions, and everyone explained the twists and turns to Fan Wuxian one by one.

Chunlan's predecessor was Taizhou Air-conditioning Equipment Factory, a county-run collective enterprise on the verge of bankruptcy in Taizhou, Jiangsu, and in 1985, its assets were 2.8 million yuan, its liabilities were 5.5 million yuan, and its net asset value was negative.

Under the management of his successor Tao Jianxing, Chunlan emerged in the air-conditioning market, and by 1994, Chunlan had become China's largest air-conditioning production base and one of the world's top seven air-conditioning companies.

By the year before last, Chunlan's assets reached 12 billion yuan, and its net assets reached 8 billion yuan, making it a leader in China's home appliance industry. Tao Jianxing was elected as an alternate member of the 15th Central Committee together with Ni Runfeng of Changhong, Sichuan, and he also joined the party and government organs and served as a member of the Standing Committee of the Taizhou Municipal Party Committee.

It is precisely because the scale of Chunlan is too large, Tao Jianxing's reputation is too big, so the social concern caused by the Chunlan restructuring incident this time is also very large, since the end of the year before last, this matter has been in the planning, high-profile start, but until recently, it was stopped by the central government.

"Why?" Fan Wuxian asked curiously.

There are no pop-ups
