Chapter 188: Director Zhang is going to resign?
Once the snowball rolls up, it can't stop.
At this point, whether it is Hao Yun or Lin Jun, they can only watch this snowball roll bigger and bigger.
The difference is that Hao Yun is looking worried, and Lin Jun is looking excitedly.
As for the start-up team of Modern Bike, as well as the founder Zhang Tao, they are completely confused.
The bike-sharing project has been operated to the present level, and it is no longer a pure Internet plus product, but has been completely transformed into an accessory to financial instruments by a certain guy.
The number of users is still increasing, more bikes are being produced, and the whole project is like a bicycle wheel that has been turned, and if you want to keep the bike from falling, you have to keep riding.
However, what is puzzling is that those venture capital firms seem to be completely blind to the risks, like sharks that smell blood, and all of them rush in.
In less than a week, he has received calls from at least 20 investment companies asking if they have financing needs.
Among them, there are even international financial giants such as Xia Hai Investment Bank, and they are 200 million as soon as they open their mouths.
To be honest, Zhang Tao didn't know what to do......
……
Friday night.
Soft worker 1801 class meeting.
Today's class meeting was the same as usual, but Director Zhang didn't come again. But unlike usual, this time it was a fashionably dressed, young and beautiful female teacher came.
Walking to the podium, the female teacher wrote her name on the blackboard and turned to face the classmates.
"My name is Liu Mo, and I am the junior sister of your Instructor Zhang, and I will serve as your counselor from today on."
After hearing this, there was a sound of discussion in the class.
Although everyone had never seen the counselor a few times on weekdays, except for the squad leader and the secretary of the Youth League, they suddenly heard that the counselor was gone, and everyone's faces still showed surprised expressions.
"Where's Director Zhang?"
"Why did you quit all of a sudden?"
"yes, isn't it good...... Although I haven't seen him a few times. ”
"It's weird."
Hao Yun, who was sitting in the classroom, had an embarrassed expression on his face.
Speaking of which, he has to blame for this.
If it weren't for his 20 million, Supervisor Zhang would still be a counselor at Jiangcheng University.
Although it is certainly not as good as the current status of Mr. Zhang, the future should be bright.
Also, don't worry about whether you will suddenly go in one day......
There was a lot of discussion in the class for a long time, and there was no gossip discussed.
Finally couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, the little fat man Zhou Xuan raised his hand at the instigation of his roommate.
Noticing that hand, the newly appointed Director Liu nodded and said with a slight smile.
"This classmate, please speak."
Zhou Xuan pushed away the chair and stood up.
"Teacher, may I ask why Instructor Zhang is not the counselor of our class."
"Well, Director Zhang, he's been busy lately, and it's estimated that he will leave in a few days."
"Resignation?!"
The students in the classroom looked at each other and exchanged unexpected glances with each other.
It's pretty sudden......
Why are you leaving?
Looking at the surprised expressions on the students' faces, Liu Mo smiled slightly, and continued with a bit of pride on the corners of her mouth.
"Okay, classmates, you don't have to worry about your teacher Zhang, he is very good now, maybe it will be Mr. Zhang in a while, do you know about that shared bicycle? It's his product. ”
As soon as they heard this, the students sitting in the classroom were shocked.
Especially Zhou Xuan, who didn't have much eyes, was stunned because of this sentence.
"Damn?! That shared bicycle was made by Director Zhang? ”
Wang Ziyi, who was sitting next to him, swallowed his saliva and said with a look of disbelief.
"Good guy, it turned out to be a business...... I said I hadn't seen him this semester. ”
Yuan Gaofei also had a shocked expression, and he held back for a while before he suddenly said a word.
"You said that when we graduate, will our instructor's companies be listed?"
"You're okay with this brain."
"It's not entirely brainy, right, I heard that the modern bike seems to be about to enter Shanghai?"
"? So fast? Where did he get so much money to build those bikes......"
These words stopped Yuan Gaofei.
Oh, yes......
Where did their instructors get the money?
In my impression, Zhang Tao usually seems to be wearing a plaid shirt and riding a second-hand bicycle, not like he is very rich, and his identity as a rich second generation is not compatible.
Looking at the news, that modern bicycle seems to have put 100,000 bicycles in a week, right?
Even if it is calculated at 200 yuan for a car, these bicycles that have been put on the market alone will cost 20 million!
"You're stupid...... Who still uses their own money to start a business now," Zhou Xuan said with a very understanding expression, "It's not all about making a PPT, then financing, and then starting to make products." ”
"Can you get money for this bicycle rental project?" Wang Ziyi muttered, "Damn, I knew that I also started a business." ”
"You think you can get financing on an individual basis?" Zhou Xuan glanced at him and said, "Let me say so, being able to get financing is also part of his ability." However, just getting financing is really nothing, and if this kind of project cannot be listed, it is equivalent to working in vain. ”
Yuan Gaofei asked with a puzzled expression.
"Why?"
"Because it's not profitable," Zhou Xuan sighed and said, "Have you ever used that bike?" I actually used it when I took the subway the day before yesterday. The deposit of 299 is free for three months, and after three months, it is only 4 cents for half an hour, and when to go if you want to recover the cost of a car. ”
Sitting in the back and listening to the conversation of a few buddies in the next bedroom, Hao Yun sighed softly in his heart.
Sure enough, ordinary people can't understand the business model of modern bicycles.
It's hard to say whether there will be any in the future, but at least now the vast majority of ordinary people don't understand it.
You think people are making rent, but they are playing with your deposit.
But fortunately, the industry is still in its infancy, and the vast majority of Internet giants have just become interested in this new gadget, but they have not yet reacted.
According to the business model of modern bicycles, the possibility of a thunderstorm in the end is actually very small, because the bicycle itself is still profitable.
However, when those Internet giants react and come up with a-stirring stick policy of free cycling, or even riding a bicycle to give money and receive red envelopes, the days of modern bicycles may not be so good.
Once an industry runs in an unhealthy state for a long time, even if the starting point is good, it will eventually become a chicken feather, which will eventually hurt the interests of users themselves.
After all, nothing in this world is free, even if it is something that does not cost money at the moment, it is only because it is not yet time to pay for it.
However, fortunately, in this parallel world, the definition of monopolistic behavior seems to be stricter, and the anti-monopoly regulations explicitly prohibit the use of subsidies to fight price wars.
Maybe the modern bicycle in this life will have a different ending in the end.
But no matter what, Hao Yun felt that it was basically impossible to count on Lin Jun to help him get rid of this project......
