Chapter 55: The Big Move
At the end of July, Xingchen Technology was built for the first time.
The so-called team building is the meaning of team building.
The company pays to take everyone on a trip, temporarily liberated from the usual intense work, while increasing knowledge, but also strengthening the cohesion and combat effectiveness of the team, but all large enterprises will carry out such activities at least once or twice a year.
Luo Jia asked Li Moran to contact China Eastern Airlines, chartered a Boeing 747 400, and went straight to Bangkok, Thailand.
74744400 is a wide-body passenger aircraft, which can accommodate more than 500 people, just enough for the whole company, but with the rapid expansion of Xingchen Technology, it is estimated that one aircraft may not be enough for the next team building.
The visa was not processed in advance, and it cost 2,000 baht to get a visa on arrival, while the price of applying for a visa in advance was 1,000 baht, which was slightly cheaper.
Before leaving, the Ministry of Finance issued an envelope to everyone, and in the envelope were 50 banknotes with a denomination of 1,000 baht, totaling 50,000 yuan, equivalent to more than 10,000 yuan, as everyone's pocket money in Thailand.
During this time, the company has worked together to create an amazing industrial value, and compared to the current profitability of Xingchen Technology, the cost of this trip is really nothing.
The smaller the country in Southeast Asia, the more moths there are.
Thai Customs has a habit of spot-checking cash and requires inbound tourists to carry 20,000 baht or the equivalent in foreign exchange to prove that they have sufficient spending power.
After the plane landed, it went out of customs smoothly.
The heads of various departments counted the number of people, then boarded the bus to pick up the airport, and rushed to the Hilton Hotel in the bustling downtown area.
The Administration Department also prepared a local Thai mobile phone card for everyone, so that everyone can go online and inquire about information.
In fact, the members of the Iron Straight Boys group prefer to go to Tokyo, because there is Akihabara, where you can buy manga and figurines, as well as various electronic gadgets, and have the opportunity to drink maid coffee and eat kawaii dishes made by maids.
It's a pity that the visa for the neon country is more troublesome and time-consuming, and Xingchen Technology has an important task next, so there is no way to wait for the visa, so it has to choose Thailand, which is convenient to enter and exit, as the destination of this trip.
They stayed in Bangkok for three nights, then moved to Chiang Mai in the north, where they also stayed for three nights.
In this world, wherever there is business, there are always Chinese compatriots.
This trip is handled by a Chinese travel agency who has lived in the local area for a long time, and the itinerary is comfortable and exciting.
The whole five-star hotel, luxury self-service package, a ladyboy show and an elephant paradise will be chartered without a word, so that everyone can enjoy the fun and avoid the trouble of queuing.
All in all, Luo Jia has only one goal, so that these brothers who follow him to work hard can enjoy the highest quality of service, not afraid of spending money, and want the best in everything.
Any business is based on people.
Without these brothers, Luo Jia himself is nothing, and after fighting hard battles, they also deserve the highest level of enjoyment.
There is no shortage of straight men and otaku in the company, although they work in the bustling metropolis, they rarely go out shopping, and spend their days with games and anime.
This trip has opened everyone's eyes a lot, and Luo Jia promised that the next team building will kill Akihabara, and even the hotel will be booked near Akihabara, which makes everyone look forward to it.
On the last day, everyone checked out of the room and then took a bus to the airport, where they will take off from Chiang Mai and go directly back to Shanghai.
Luo Jia sat in the window seat and thought, at this time, his phone suddenly rang, and when he picked it up, he saw that it was Gong Xiangdong.
"I took everyone to Thailand for a few days, and everyone has been tired lately." Luo Jia said.
"Thailand? Why not go to Akihabara? Gong Xiangdong asked.
Luo Jia thought it was funny, even he thought so, could it be that people in the science and technology circle, both young and old, have this virtue, and they only have Akihabara in their eyes?
"Google is currently inspecting factories around the world, you know about this, right?" Gong Xiangdong asked.
Luo Jia nodded, "I know, it is estimated that they want to acquire, LG, HTC, Nokia, one of these three factories, and then enter the mobile phone industry, after all, during this time, Samsung and Apple have joined forces, and domestic companies have greatly changed the Android system, making Google very passive." ”
"That's what happened, but we all guessed wrong, and Google's appetite is bigger than we thought." Gong Xiangdong said.
"Bigger?"
"Well, I got the news that tomorrow, Google will officially announce that it will acquire LG, HTC and Nokia at the same time."
"They're not buying one factory, they're buying three at once!"
"Once the acquisition is completed, Google will have more than 17,000 franchised stores worldwide and a production capacity of more than 200 million phones per year." Gong Xiangdong said.
Luo Jia frowned, the company with the highest production of mobile phones in the world is Samsung, with more than 300 million units per year, and Huawei and Apple are both around 200 million units, tied for second place.
If Google acquires LG, HTC and Nokia at the same time, then their production capacity will exceed 200 million units, becoming the new world's second-largest mobile phone player.
and Samsung. Apple's war is not over yet, and a new giant has joined the fray.
And Google has the world's most installed Android, which will be their killer feature.
"Why did you come to me for this kind of thing, I can't help it." Luo Jia said lightly.
Although the surface is light and breezy, Luo Jia's heart is beating wildly at the moment, and his heart has already exploded.
When the mobile phone assistant was fully promoted, Luo Jia quietly buried a thunder, ready to have strength in the future, and poke the chrysanthemum of Google.
Could it be that the day of your dreams is coming so soon?
Gong Xiangdong said eagerly on the phone, "Mr. Luo, we are old friends, so don't sell Guanzi." ”
"I know that you have traveled to Thailand, but I know even more that this time Hong Tao did not go, and Di Wuchang did not go, one of them is responsible for business operations, and the other is responsible for human resources."
"During this time, it seems that Xingchen Technology has withdrawn its troops, but in fact, you are not idle at all, Hong Tao is talking to more than one factory about the acquisition at the same time, and his whereabouts are all over the Yangtze River Delta region."
"And Di Wuchang rented the entire 17th and 18th floors of the CICC Building, a full 3,200 square meters of office space, and added 640 workstations in one go, and many people came in and out of the CICC Building every day to be interviewed by Di Wuchang."
"All these signs show that next, you are not only moving, but also big moving!"
......
Hudu.
When the team returned from Thailand, the employees were surprised to find that the company's office space had more than doubled again.
It just so happened that an e-commerce company on the seventeenth and eighteenth floors moved away, and the two empty floors were all rented by Xingchen Technology and renovated overnight.
In addition, there are many colleagues in the company who do not know each other, and it should be the work that Di Wuchang led the human resources department to do during the vacation.
"I said, with Mr. Luo's workaholic character, how can he be so kind to take us on a trip, look at this posture, I'm afraid the company will have new projects soon."
"Can't be wrong, on this trip, the Ministry of Commerce, the Human Resources Department, plus half of the Administration Department and half of the Finance Department, did not go to Thailand, and when we rode elephants in Chiang Mai, they interviewed new people in the company."
"It must be that Mr. Luo knows very well that we will not have a good life for a long time in the future, so take us to enjoy it in advance."
Everyone was talking about it, drinking the free morning tea provided by the company.
At this time, a young man from the administration department looked serious, hurriedly walked into the office, and issued a notice.
All the middle-level and above persons in charge of the company will gather in the large conference room.
