"Uncle Chen, is it so difficult?" Hu Mingchen frowned.

"It's more difficult than you think, because we don't have extra funds to expand production capacity, so even if there are orders, we can't take them, and the R&D department is a big dragon drinking water, bottomless pit, where is the company still rich, not to mention salary, I now even have a headache for the travel reimbursement of the company's business personnel. Chen Xuesheng complained with a bitter face.

On the one hand, Chen Xuesheng is indeed a clever woman who is difficult to cook without rice, on the other hand, he also took this opportunity to complain to Hu Mingchen and complain, he can't continue like this, otherwise the company won't be able to bear it at all, if he adjusts his strategy now, maybe it's still too late. There is no such thing as becoming a fat man in one bite, and you have to choke to death.

He Xin himself also hopes to be able to fight for a salary increase for the brothers below, but he also knows the company's financial difficulties, so even if Hu Mingchen said that, he didn't say a word.

Hu Mingchensheng sighed: "I have already said it, it is impossible not to honor it, and the colleagues in the R&D department are indeed working hard, so let's do it, third uncle, how much money can we get now?"

Since Chen Xuesheng has no money here, if the project wants to continue, Hu Mingchen has to pay out of his own pocket.

"About 70 million. Hu Jianqiang replied.

"In this way, all 70 million called, and the other ...... Xingsheng Supermarket suspended all expansion plans, all stopped, let them make up 10 million next month, and also get Pengbo Electronics, in addition...... I'll go back to Mr. Luo and borrow some money from him. "Now the project here is a top priority, so Hu Mingchen must continue to inject capital.

For this project, not only will the expansion and development of other companies be affected, Hu Mingchen knows that he has to be cheeky to borrow money.

"Xiao Chen, then you will inject 80 million at this time. Chen Xuesheng didn't expect a word, and Hu Mingchen came forward and smashed it.

"Uncle Chen, after spending so much money, the project has entered a critical stage, and we have no way out, otherwise, we will lose all our efforts. After speaking, Hu Mingchen looked at He Xin again. "Manager He, you can rest assured and rush forward boldly, just say what you need, and we will solve it for you. I only have one request, that is, you must come up with products that can be marketed as soon as possible, you must break through the technical barrier as soon as possible, if there are not enough people, you will recruit people, you will poach people from other companies, anyway, at all costs. ”

"Mr. Hu, you don't need to say that we will do our best, but the funds are indeed the next very important gap, in fact, the core of our mobile phone is not in the hardware, a lot of work but in the software part, and in terms of software our country itself is relatively backward, there are fewer excellent talents, to find a large number of high-quality software engineers, the investment is not small, in addition, we also have to build a laboratory, by simulating the brain to test how much damage the radiation of the product will cause to the human body. He Xin said stiffly.

As a R&D manager, it stands to reason that He Xin only needs to focus on technology, but the company's current situation makes him have to worry about the follow-up capital supply.

"You just tell me, how much more money will be needed in the future? Whether it's setting up a lab, testing the signal or the radiation, or hiring more people and solving the hardware problem, that's what you care about, and what I care about is when the product will be available. Hu Mingchen stared at He Xindao.

"Least ...... 100 million, and ...... We don't have enough office space. Fang Guoping hesitated.

"It seems that you are not sure, in this way, I will prepare 150 million for you, and you can let it go. As for the lack of office space, Uncle Chen, just vacate your office and the offices of other administrative departments, and use all of this building for their R&D department. Hu Mingchen said briskly.

"150 million? Xiao Chen, where do we have so much money, the 10 million you just said in Xingsheng Supermarket, whether they can get it is still unknown. Besides, the 70 million you asked me to take just now is part of the money for repairing the house, and the other part is the salary of all the employees of the company in the past few months......" Hu Jianqiang hurriedly spoke.

"It's all put aside, and now it's all our focus, and I don't have any money to borrow. Hu Mingchen raised his hand to interrupt Hu Jianqiang's words.

Seeing Hu Mingchen's firm gamble, Chen Xuesheng had nothing to say, not to mention, Hu Mingchen threw so much money into it alone, and he didn't mention equity dilution with him.

"Then let's go to the back of the factory and the warehouse next door and squeeze it. Chen Xuesheng said.

"Uncle Chen, just hold on for a while, and when this time passes, everything will be fine. Believe me, all the efforts made today are worth it. Hu Mingchen reassured Chen Xuesheng that it might be a little unhappy to let him vacate his office so rashly.

"I don't care, it's hard to be a community. ”

"Well, that's fine, Uncle Chen, but you can start preparing for the trademark application now. ”

"What trademark should we apply for?"

"In Chinese, it's called Aifeng, and in English it's called iPe

g，pe

g is the pinyin of Peng in our company name, and this word, and Peng Cheng Wanli, Dapeng wings meaning, the meaning is still very good, i is I

tellige

The abbreviation of CE means smart, wise. And iPe

The English pronunciation of g is almost the same as Ai Feng. By the way, remember, if you want to register, you have to be an international trademark, both domestic and foreign. Hu Mingchen said.

FOR THE ISSUE OF THIS TRADEMARK, HU MINGCHEN ALSO THOUGHT ABOUT IT TEMPORARILY, HE ONCE THOUGHT ABOUT SIMPLY REGISTERING THE IPHONE, BUT WHEN HE THOUGHT ABOUT IT, HE FELT THAT IT WAS TOO DESPICABLE, SO HE SIMPLY GAVE UP.

In fact, Hu Mingchen also had to give up, otherwise he would not have been able to register, and the trademark had already been registered by Apple.

"Mr. Hu, the English name is quite concise, but the Chinese name, the Ai Feng you said, does it mean that you love to the point of madness?" He Xin said.

He Xin obviously listened to Ai Feng as crazy about love.

"Love to go crazy, love to go crazy?" He Xin's words made Hu Mingchen think about it, "Love crazy, love crazy...... Love to the point of madness...... Well, yes, the name you took is better than the name I took, just use the name you took, yes, just use it, it's a little vulgar, but at least it shows our goal, we want to make each of our products love consumers crazy. ”

He Xin and the others looked at each other, how could this become his He Xin's life, isn't it Hu Mingchen, your own name?

"You have to find a professional designer to design it well. Chen Xuesheng said.

"That's a must, we must be high-end and high-grade, we must have an international style, in a word, our products, from the beginning of the positioning is international-oriented, not the kind of low-end models of hundreds of dollars. Hu Mingchen slapped the table and said.

"Mr. Hu, I think that this product is still in the research and development stage, and the confidentiality work must be done well, otherwise, once the plan is leaked, I am afraid that so many efforts in front will be in vain. Wu Huaisi, who had not spoken, said.

Listening to Wu Huaisi's words, Hu Mingchen did not respond, but looked at He Xin and Chen Xuesheng.

"What Assistant Wu said is indeed a problem, and it just so happens that after several offices on our side move out, it is convenient for unified management. Chen Xuesheng said.

"This problem, in fact, I thought about it half a year ago and noticed that all the engineers in our department have signed a confidentiality agreement, and I also separate the software and hardware groups, the colleagues in the software group cannot see the products of the hardware group, and the colleagues in the hardware group cannot see the programs of the software group, and when the software group is tested, the simulation modules are also used. In addition, the circuit diagram I gave to the upstream supplier was all changed, not the circuit diagram we actually used, so as to prevent the upstream manufacturer from knowing that we were developing such a product...... None of the computers used by anyone in the office are allowed to be taken out, including laptops, even USB drives are controlled, and in short, I'm trying to prevent things from happening. He Xin took over the conversation and said.

Hearing that He Xin had taken so many measures to keep secrets, Hu Mingchen felt very relieved. When He Xin was arranged to be the R&D manager, Hu Mingchen was still a little bottomless in his heart, after all, he was young and inexperienced, so he never thought that he would use it correctly.

"I can't tell you how discreet you can be, it's good, it's good, I'm satisfied. I emphasize again that the people who are here today, out of this door, about our product, must be kept confidential, whether it is to friends or family, not a word can be divulged. After Hu Mingchen nodded and praised He Xin, he solemnly emphasized.

For Hu Mingchen's requirements, including Chen Xuesheng, they all made guarantees.

"In fact, some of the measures I took were suggestions given by Assistant Hu. He Xin added.

"Assistant Hu?" Hu Mingchen hadn't turned a corner for a while, and there was only Assistant Wu Huaisi on the scene.

"It's your cousin Hu Mingrong. Chen Xuesheng explained.

"Oh, it turned out to be him, it's good, hey, why isn't he here?" Hu Mingchen came to his senses, looked left and right, and didn't see Hu Mingrong.

"I arranged for him to stand guard at the door. Chen Xuesheng said.

Hu Mingchen nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, you have to be so careful." Okay, that's all for today, Manager He, you come up with a few more prototypes as soon as possible, time waits for no one, for this project, I have to find someone to borrow tens of millions to fill it, don't let us all down. ”

"Thank you for your trust, I will do my best, by the way, I would also like to thank you for your salary increase on behalf of all our team brothers, I believe they will be more motivated to know this news. He Xin was moved.

He Xin has reason to be moved, he is so young, and Hu Mingchen still trusts him and supports him so much, which makes him have a determination to die for his confidant.

"I'm sure you can, go all out, we're in a race against time. Hu Mingchen pursed his lips and patted He Xin's shoulder and said.
