Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
[After the two chapters were over, I was shocked to forget jì and threw it out...... Didn't update yesterday, sorry! Hope to add another chapter tomorrow morning! 】
Looking at the young man in front of him, who was almost a few years old as his son, his eyes flashed with admiration, and he smiled: "Since the prototype has been finalized, why continue to design? Is it redundant to know that this will add additional expenses? ”
Shaking his head, Song Chen smiled faintly: "Although Chenxing Technology is a start-up company, it has placed all my thoughts on consumer electronics!" Ipod is aimed at the high-end market, in addition to the function to be practical, the appearance must be the pursuit of fashion and generosity, which makes people love the amazing feeling! If such a market effect can be obtained, no amount of cost spillover is well worth it! ”
Guo Taiming smiled: "Song Dong is so ambitious! ”
Song Chen smiled slightly: "I will take what you just said as an appreciation for me!" ”
Guo Taiming laughed heartily and said: "Of course, this is a compliment to you!" The times create heroes, Song Dong, you are the only person I have ever seen in my life who can use the situation so neatly, and you are a young man in his early twenties! ”
In any case, if the product line of the iPod series can create a "sales myth" that Apple once created, it will help Chenxing Technology to control the industrial chain of consumer electronics and lay a solid foundation for the crazy wave of smartphones in the future.
The mature foundry technology of Foxconn, a subsidiary of Hon Hai Technology, can help Chenxing Technology improve the yield rate of products, which can greatly reduce the cost of production and after-sales service!
Hon Hai Technology's parts supply is also a very key part, compared with Samsung, which occupies a strong position in the industrial chain, Hon Hai Precision and Guo Taiming, who do not make their own brands, are the strategic partners of choice!
"By June this year at the latest, the iPod will be finalized!" Song Chen muttered, "According to the negotiation we just negotiated, Hon Hai Precision must provide a yield rate higher than 95, and the production cost of each iPod is 21 US dollars, but we Chenxing Technology deliberately use your parts, I hope that Mr. Guo and your company can come up with a more favorable price!" ”
Guo Taiming did not agree or refuse, but smiled: "These, we can choose a time for the specific person in charge of Chenxing Technology to follow up with the senior management of Hon Hai Technology!" Since I invited Song Dong to visit Taiwan, I believe that the price will definitely not disappoint you! ”
Song Chen picked up the teacup and said with a smile: "As a junior in the shopping mall, I will only toast you with tea instead of wine, if there is any neglect in the future, please forgive Mr. Guo!" ”
"Well said! Say! Ha ha! Please! Picking up the teacup, Guo Taiming made a gesture of please.
After taking a sip, Guo Taiming looked at the humble and pragmatic Song Chen, and suddenly remembered his son. He looked at Song Chen with soft eyes and said, "After Song Dong's trip to Taiwan is over, do you plan to return to the 6th year, or settle directly in the United States?" ”
Song Chen pondered for a moment and then said slowly: "America! Wang An's regrets...... I think it's time for a Chinese to pick it up! ”
Guo Taiming was stunned, and his gaze changed when he looked at Song Chen.
On this trip to Taiwan, Song Chen had three purposes, the first was to be invited to visit Foxconn and Hon Hai Technology, and after a deep conversation with Guo Taiming, this purpose has almost been achieved.
The second purpose is to cast the marketing advertisements of the Ipod, and after reading the advertising copy, a woman with an elegant temperament and sweet appearance appeared in Song Chen! Song Chen's most of the purpose of this trip was to have a meal with the other party, if he could...... Of course, he hopes to get a chance to kiss Fangze!
The third purpose is to visit the Taiwanese online game agency that represents King of Kings, which is just an extra itinerary.
The name of this company is not known, but its company management skeleton is actually the employees who originally participated in the opening of "King of Kings", after Chen Guangming and his wife moved to work in Big 6, most of the employees did not go to work in Big 6, but chose to work in Taiwan, and acted as an agent for this online game product.
However, compared with the achievement of 30,000 paid users and 30,000 people online at the same time in the big 6, there are only 7,000 people online at the same time in Taiwan, which also directly shows the inherent deficiency of the narrow Taiwan market!
Big 6's "King of Kings" and the National Day period of charge operation, this time the agent Chenxing Entertainment is very well prepared, including three sales channels, namely the overlord of the software circulation industry Lianbang Software, online retail 8848 and Chenxing Entertainment's self-built Internet café online sales channel "Chenxing esaLs system".
In addition, the software dealers around the country who also want to purchase from Chenxing Entertainment are also a channel supplement that cannot be ignored, and this complete sales channel can basically cover the business scope of most young people in China, which provides huge support for "King of Kings" to open the market.
However, Li Wei was pleasantly surprised by the growth of 1o-2o paid users of "King of Kings" every month, but in Song Chen's view, this kind of "turtle" growth could not enter his eyes.
And "King of Kings" can't really conquer the heart of "Chinese Internet Blindness" in terms of operation, at least it can't be as easy to get started as "Legend of Blood" after watching it a few times, and quickly form a strong adhesive force!
But Song Chen's purpose of using "King of Kings" to train Li Wei and her management team has basically been achieved, and Li Wei has also come up with very beautiful performance! ――As of 23:59 on January 31, 1999, Chenxing Entertainment's operating income in the first month was as high as 7oo yuan, and the gross profit was more than 7O, which means that Chenxing Entertainment obtained a net profit of more than 4 million yuan in the first month after the official charge of "King of Kings". [Note: Previous operating costs and financial expenses such as servers have not been reimbursed.] 】
Chenxing Entertainment's performance and profiteering really shocked the senior management of China Chenxing Holdings, even Zhai Yan, although she also heard Song Chen talk about "the phenomenon of profiteering in the online game industry", but when she saw this financial report for the first time, she couldn't help but raise her little hand excitedly and waved it in the void!
This means that the "cash cow" in Song Chen's mouth is becoming a reality that is being realized from the sketch on the lips, and Chenxing Entertainment will inject a shot of strength into China's Chenxing Holdings, which lacks profits!
Cai Chongxin, the financial officer, was also greatly relieved.
Chenxing Entertainment is a wholly-owned subsidiary of China Chenxing Holdings, as a low-key strategy of "muffled wealth", Chenxing Entertainment does not need to disclose financial briefings to investors and society, and senior management has also been issued a gag order by the headquarters.
The media that pay close attention to Chenxing Holdings and its subsidiaries can only guess the revenue of Chenxing Entertainment through the sales volume of 8848, and the sales number of Lianbang Software is directly included in the sales number of the software, and the virtual recharge card is not classified separately. As for Chenxing's "esaLe system", outsiders are even more foggy, and can only sample and evaluate Internet cafes that use this software.
Therefore, although outsiders have many speculations, the number of guesses is not supported by convincing evidence!
Even so, the sales of "King of Kings" in 8848 in January last year exceeded 30,000 3O yuan point cards and 8ooo monthly cards, which can always be estimated for industry insiders, and at the same time, they also noticed the amazing profits of online games.
Although Chenxing Entertainment did not announce the paid users and active users of "King of Kings", the fact that two new sets of servers were added during the National Day is there after all, for Chinese game manufacturers, it is difficult to guess the specific number of "King of Kings", but it is not difficult to evaluate the approximation, and it is even easier to notice the huge profits contained in online games!
Chenxing Entertainment's financial expenditures are basically reflected in the investment in manpower and servers, and the production and sales costs of virtual recharge cards are basically negligible, so the senior management of Chenxing Entertainment is somewhat disapproving of the "careful thinking" of the headquarters.
In any case, Chenxing Entertainment, like Baidu, which came up with "keyword advertising" last year, sprung up at the end of 99 and became another eye-catching Internet force under China Chenxing Holdings, and at the same time it is also a pioneer in the online game industry, attracting much attention.
However, it was the 2ooo year that really made online games popular in the land of China! Because of the emergence and successful operation of "King of Kings", a number of domestic, Japanese and Korean online games have entered China, and the well-known online game giants have appeared in this year or exhibited online game business this year, so it is also recognized as the "first year of online games" in the industry!
Of course, that's an afterthought!
Taipei City is located on an island, between East Asia 6 and the Pacific Ocean, and is affected by the interaction between the dry and cold Mongolian high pressure and the warm and humid Pacific high pressure, forming a YA tropical monsoon climate. Due to the regulation of the ocean, its temperature is 2~5C higher than that of 6 regions at the same latitude, especially in autumn and winter, this feature is particularly prominent, long summer without winter, only hot season and cool season.
While most of northern China was still wearing thick coats, people in Taipei went out wearing cardigans and long sleeves. Even, beauty-loving girls swagger through the market in sexy miniskirts, and the swaying skirts are like early spring, romantic and sultry.
There is a very elegant restaurant on Zhongxiao West Road, and it is the time for lunch at this time, and the white-collar workers or couples near the company enter in pairs. At this time, a pure woman in a white dress walked in, she had a sweet temperament, a tall figure, and a long ponytail, although it was not stunning, but it was also very attractive, and the passers-by always looked at her more consciously or unconsciously.
Standing in front of the restaurant, she looked hesitant, but she gritted her teeth and walked in.
As soon as the glass door of the restaurant was opened, a waitress in a white shirt and black vest stepped forward and asked, "Welcome!" Alone? ”
The beautiful woman hesitated and said, "I'm here to find someone!" ”
The waitress asked, "Excuse me, are you Miss Lin?" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to recommend this work as a registered member of Piao Astronomy, your support is my biggest motivation. )
