Chapter 149: Tightening Expenditures

In the face of the reporter's sharp question, Sun Mingwei's expression did not change, and replied strongly: "It's not time for the reporter to ask questions, I will be the first to answer your question later, please sit down first." ”

Sun Mingwei continued to speak, and Shu Jiankun said in a low voice: "I can't blame the reporter for thinking so, if I am outside, I can't help but ask like this, and when the press conference is over and the news is in the newspaper, there will inevitably be more people with the same idea." ”

Lu Xi knew that the hundredfold gap between the average annual investment of 300 million and the first year's investment of 3 million would attract some people's slander, but he didn't care very much, and said with a smile: "We don't just say nothing, just let them say it, and when they see Luzhu's efforts, they will naturally shut up." ”

Lu Xi's voice fell, and Sun Mingwei happened to say that the three million in the first year were composed of 300,000 yuan donated by Luzhu Technology, Luzhu Venture Capital and Zhu Weibo, Shu Jiankun asked in surprise: "Do you know Zhu Weibo?" ”

He didn't even know what Zhu Wei's wavelength looked like, and he couldn't think of what his expression would be after hearing about it, Lu Xi shook his head and smiled, and said, "I don't know." ”

Shu Jiankun asked: "Then what's the matter with his 300,000?" Zhu Weibo is not a generous person. ”

Su Mei, who had just seen the customer rushing over, heard this, so she told what happened last night as a joke, Shu Jiankun frowned after hearing this, and then sighed: "You can really mess around, there is no hope at all now." ”

Thinking of Shu Jiankun's intention to pull Yong household appliances into the market, Lu Xi asked with a smile: "Isn't there no hope for a long time?" ”

Shu Jiankun said in a deep voice: "It was Zhu Weibo who rejected me, he said that Yongjia Electric Appliances wanted to make its own e-commerce platform, but they did not have a unified opinion internally. I'm planning to lobby Cheng Xiao again. A new wave of technology has swept the world. According to Zhu Weibo, next year their own platform will be launched, and they want to seek a chance to survive in the cracks of Huilian, 8848, Yile, Dangdang.com and Shihuakai, and it is impossible to do it without tens of millions of investment. ”

Seeing that Lu Xi was frowning and didn't know what he was thinking, Shu Jiankun continued: "Before you negotiate with Mobile. Can take Weixin is the instant messaging software with the most users in China, and the SMS business is in a state of chicken ribs as a bargaining chip, striving for more shares, although Lu Dongqiang didn't give you a chance, but it's not impossible for me to persuade Yongle with this. ”

For other small enterprises, Shu Jiankun may be able to negotiate with this as a bargaining chip, but today's Yongjia electrical appliances have changed from traditional wholesale and retail to chain operations, and chain stores have spread throughout Xingang and major first- and second-tier cities in the East China Sea.

Lu Xi smiled and said, "I want Yongjia Appliances to enter the market." You should find a way to burst the Internet bubble as soon as possible, so that dozens of shareholders of Yongjia Appliances will collectively give up being an e-commerce platform. ”

Shu Jiankun smiled bitterly: "The Wall Street Journal, the San Francisco Chronicle, and the Washington Post. Reporting that the capital feast of the Internet is coming to an end for several days has not had any impact on the soaring Nasdaq, what can I do? Compared to those capital giants, I'm just a turtle at best. ”

Lu Xi was silent for a moment and said: "In this way, for the sake of Huilian Online and the rational development of domestic Internet companies, Luzhu will take the initiative to do something again, and Brother Hong will also cooperate, okay?" ”

I don't know what kind of medicine Lu Xi sells in the gourd, several people turned their heads to look at him, Lu Xi got up and came to Su Mei and Hong Xuedong and whispered a few words to the two, and saw Su Mei and Hong Xuedong immediately showed a stunned look, Su Mei immediately asked, "You're not joking, are you?" ”

Lu Xi said seriously: "You go over and tell Mr. Sun, and announce it immediately." ”

Looking at Lu Xi's serious expression, Su Mei got up and walked forward, Hong Xuedong understood what Lu Xi meant by doing this and followed, watching the two of them come to the stage, Shu Jiankun, who didn't hear what Lu Xi said, asked anxiously: "What are you going to do?" ”

Lu Xi replied with a smile: "The bubble is about to burst, and the cold winter is coming, and the green bamboo and ants should also tighten their expenses when they move." ”

Yu Xin didn't understand his intention for doing this for a while, and said: "Aren't you engaged in oolong, here you announced that you would invest three billion yuan in ten years for charity, and there was a tightening of expenses, your brain is broken?" ”

Lu Xi said with a smile: "The company's development appropriately tightens expenditures, which will not affect charity." ”

Looking at Lu Xi's smiling expression, Shu Jiankun somewhat understood what he meant, and announced that the expenses would be tightened, and the relocation of green bamboo and ants would only be appropriately tightened, and it would not have any impact on the company's development, only other people would be affected. He said that he called on domestic Internet companies to develop rationally, and this is also a reminder to those people, but whether it can affect domestic Internet companies and individuals who are about to devote themselves to the Internet depends on the effect of public opinion.

Lu Xi said with a smile: "Lao Shu had better go to Professor Song to write a related paper, and after the news is published and Professor Song's paper is published, you can go over to negotiate with Cheng Xiao." ”

Shu Jiankun smiled and said, "I hope it can play a role." ”

The press conference continued after a pause with Su Mei and Hong Xuedong on stage to discuss with Sun Mingwei, and after Sun Mingwei introduced Jing Ran to reporters as a Green Bamboo Charity Ambassador, she officially announced that all companies in the Green Bamboo family will tighten their spending in the next one to two years to cope with the coming Internet cold wave.

Most conservative economists at home and abroad have been saying that there is a huge bubble in the current Internet industry, but no matter what they say, investors are still crazy, the stock market has been rising in the wind, and there is no profitable Internet company at home and abroad to admit the existence of the bubble, and there is no company in the current worrying about tightening spending, and Luzhu is still the number one.

Originally, it was a press conference for Luzhu to set up a charitable foundation, but when it came to the reporter's questioning stage, most people put aside the matter of the charity foundation, and instead asked about the basis and intention of Luzhu to make this decision, as well as what impact the bursting of the Internet bubble will have on domestic and foreign Internet companies and users, and whether Luzhu Venture Capital will give follow-up development funds to the enterprises that have already invested.

Sun Mingwei first answered a reporter's question about charity, and then answered the questions of many reporters: "Nasdaq is dominated by network technology stocks, under the crazy speculation, the highest price-earnings ratio has exceeded 156 times, and the price has far exceeded its own value, but more than half of the companies do not have any substantive business, and they are still crazy about the concept of speculation, and many companies are still burning money as their main business. They will all understand that the new economic concept of developing at a loss cannot change the law of economic development, and it will be broken sooner or later. ”

Sun Mingwei paused and continued: "Once the Internet bubble is punctured, the losses will be borne by investors, and Luzhu has a Luzhu Venture Capital Fund, so it will be more cautious to invest in the next one to two years. After the bubble is punctured, the impact on some Internet companies, in the case that investors no longer follow up, most companies that have no business or unfavorable business development will fall immediately after consuming the risk capital, and some companies with investment in technology will also face the end of bankruptcy or merger, so I suggest that domestic Internet companies can develop rationally. Compared with investors and Internet companies, Internet users will be affected very little, except for some Internet users who may no longer be able to log in to the websites they often log into, the network infrastructure will continue to develop, and the number of Internet users will continue to grow......"

Recently, as soon as it was empty, because of the reports of several newspapers such as the Wall Street Journal, everyone was discussing the Internet bubble, and the more they listened, the more they watched, the more they understood, although there was no preparation before, Sun Mingwei also relied on his recent understanding to deal with these reporters.

Sun Mingwei announced the end of the press conference, and when the reporter left, Shu Jiankun pondered for a long time and asked: "As the leader of domestic Internet companies, how much impact do you think Luzhu can have on the Internet industry?" ”

Lu Xi thought for a while and said: "In addition to the great repercussions of domestic public opinion, it should not have any impact on the entire industry, at least not on foreign countries, and the domestic side will only have a greater impact on those who are about to enter the market." ”

Compared with the recent reports of the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post and the San Francisco Chronicle, this press conference has no other content except that the losses will be borne by investors, and most companies will face bankruptcy or merger, and the Internet bubble theory has always existed.

Yu Xin said with a smile: "Sina, Sohu and Vantone Network are all planning to go public overseas, maybe some people will think that we can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour!" ”

Shu Jiankun had the same idea as Lu Xi, and when he heard Yu Xin's words, he said with a smile: "There will definitely not be a minority of people who have this kind of thought." ”

In late August, Sina and Sohu were preparing for overseas listing, and Vantone Network had only recently begun to prepare, with the strength of Luzhu, it could not affect their overseas financing and listing plans, and Lu Xi did not target them, but only called for rational development, aimed at enterprises related to the development of Huilian, and said with a smile: "Those who have such ideas are people who have never even seen what grapes look like."
