Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 262 Tea Party Symposium Salon (Two in One)

Fang Zhuo is very busy.

This trip to the capital to record the program was an itinerary made out of time. The main purpose was to get in touch with people from Sina, and this was also interspersed with the meeting of two investment institutions in Xiangjiang.

After meeting with the producer Hu Meng, he sat in the car and greeted him. He was quite satisfied with Hu Meng, who should also be very busy. This is a senior producer of CCTV, and despite his young age, he still has some status.

For a long time, there was no movement of the car.

"Sister Hu, let's go, didn't you say that you have to rush to record in the afternoon?"

Hu Meng said naturally: "President Fang, don't worry, there is another guest coming soon, let's go together."

Fang Zhuo thought for a moment, and the 1/2 respect from sister Hu is quite important, the most important thing for a person is to be satisfied.

"Who is it? Do I know him?" he asked.

Hu Meng hesitated for a few seconds before judging: "You probably don't know him. He's not an Internet worker, but Lin Tianhua, vice president of Lenovo Research Institute."

Fang Zhuo shook his head, sure enough he neither knew nor heard of it.

After a while, the vice president of Lenovo Research Institute arrived. He greeted Hu Meng first, and then recognized Fang Zhuo directly.

"Mr. Fang, hello, hello." Lin Tianhua was rather thin, and his words and smiles were easy-going.

Fang Zhuo shook hands enthusiastically: "Boss Lin, I have admired your name for a long time."

Lin Tianhua smiled and nodded, not too surprised, Lenovo has a good reputation, and he himself has a little reputation.

The two guests of the producer arrived, and the commercial vehicle started slowly. After leaving the airport, the three of them finally finished their greetings.

"Mr. Fang's music player is very popular in the market. I bought one for my children during the Chinese New Year. It is very convenient and good." Lin Tianhua took the initiative to mention the business of the young president.

Fang Zhuo just said with a smile, "Recently, the response has been good. Lenovo Group is welcome to purchase. I can decide to give you the best price, which can be given to employees as rewards, or to relatives and friends."

Lin Tianhua said half-seriously: "I wanted to do this, but I mentioned this suggestion at the meeting years ago. Everyone said that Lenovo Group's practice is to use its own products. I couldn't persuade them, so I had to give up."

Fang Zhuo nodded again and again, nothing wrong.

Lin Tianhua coughed, and asked with interest: "Yike's M1 and J1, surely J1 is more popular? Is M1 just a name?"

Fang Zhuo’s heart suddenly became vigilant. He remembered that during the previous meeting, he heard rumors about domestic competitors, and there seemed to be Lenovo’s movement. At that time, he thought that Lenovo was saving computers. Rumors, but now...

Mainly, the cough that cleared his throat before speaking was a bit strange.

Fang Zhuo is a person who is good at reflection. On some occasions, he would find himself coughing before speaking.

"M1 is actually very good." The president's thought was fleeting, and he decided to tell the truth, "We sell products abroad now, but we don't say much about it to the outside world, but the popularity of M1 is far beyond imagination. Sales are higher than other models."

Lin Tianhua was surprised and suspicious. He knew that Yike was selling goods abroad, but he really didn't believe it if he said it was popular.

He asked calmly: "Yike has established sales channels abroad so quickly? It's amazing."

Fang Zhuo calculated in his mind the time for the company to establish a project, research, purchase, start construction, and go offline. Considering Lenovo's R&D capabilities and manufacturing background, it should be completed within two months.

In fact, the threshold of mp3 players is not the threshold in the eyes of large enterprises.

"The channel is actually not good, but the enthusiasm abroad is indeed unexpected. Regardless of the excitement in China, the consumption level in foreign countries is suitable for mp3 music players." Fang Zhuo said calmly, "Our Yike's profit Most of it is contributed by foreign countries.”

Lin Tianhua was thoughtful.

At this moment, Hu Meng, the co-pilot's producer, turned around and said, "The other party can always share the process of planning your overseas route. It's not easy to go abroad."

"It's not easy to say, it's really not easy. Let's say it's easy, but it's okay to step on the right point." Fang Zhuo strongly promotes the foreign market.

Hu Meng asked again: "The United States is so advanced in technology, how do you deal with your competitors?"

Fang Zhuo thought to himself, you are my real sister.

He replied without hesitation: "At present, the competition is still relatively small. Even if there are competitors, it depends on whether they can make different advantages from our products. Otherwise, why buy later products? "

Lin Tianhua nodded slightly.

Hu Meng also expressed her agreement with this argument. She happily changed the subject, unaware that there was a vague confrontation between the words in the back seat just now. Lin Tianhua is an executive of Lenovo's product line. A small part of the reason is to see what Fang Zhuo thinks about mp3 players.

Lenovo is interested in entering the consumer electronics market.

However, if it is true as what Fang Zhuo accidentally revealed, the green knife is more attractive.

Lin Tianhua turned his thoughts, pondering the first-hand news from the boss of a friendly merchant. Not to mention, Yike didn't brag about its going abroad. This is the first time I heard Fang Zhuo's words so firmly, and his train of thought seemed to be overwhelmed at once. opened.

"Our program coincides with Mr. Fang and Mr. Lin. This afternoon's recording is like your discussion on the industry and products just now." Hu Meng changed the topic to her work, "Because it still belongs to the It is a stage of audition promotion, so there must be a picture showing the leading executives."

"This is what we are going to record this afternoon and tomorrow morning. Everyone can express their views on the current industry and products freely."

Fang Zhuo had a picture in his mind, and said with a smile, "Isn't this a tea party or a salon?"

"Almost, according to what we call it an elite forum." Hu Meng turned around and said.

"When I think of sitting with a group of elites, I already start to fidget." Fang Zhuo joked.

Lin Tianhua next to him heard this and comforted him: "Don't worry, just listen more and talk less, there won't be any problem."

Hu Meng glanced at Lenovo's vice president from the corner of his eye, and saw Fang Zhuo's nod. For a moment, he was not sure who couldn't understand.

The commercial vehicle drove on the road unhurriedly, because the producers could chat, and the atmosphere along the way was pretty good.

During lunch time, there were not only three of them, but many guests who participated in the recording in the afternoon had dinner together, and they got to know each other.

Fang Zhuo was a little lonely in it, and there was no one else on the Internet - because the people who worked on the Internet were almost dead last year.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, a surviving Internet person appeared. Zhang Chaoyang of Sohu and Ding Lei of Netease were both well-known, while Wang Yan of Sina was a little bit behind. Fang Zhuo's seniority was even lower in comparison.

The program was recorded in the hotel's furnished banquet hall, and the distribution of this time could be seen through the gathering of different circles before it started.

There are only six people in the small Internet circle, and two of them are assistants to the presidents of Sohu and Netease.

Zhang Chaoyang's appearance was unattractive, and he spoke directly: "Mr. Fang, you need to find a way out of your registration network."

Regarding Guahao.com, everyone knows that it has lost its profit prospects due to industry policies. This was a relatively shocking thing last year.

"I'm looking for a way out. Don't start selling machines at a stall now." Fang Zhuo said with a smile, "I was still talking to President Lin of Lenovo on the way here at the airport, telling them to purchase my machines. Hey, if Mr. Zhang, Mr. Ding, and Mr. Wang continue to support me, I will have a way out."

Zhang Chaoyang shook his head and said, "It's not easy for Mr. Fang to go from registration network to selling machines. Are there any other good projects?"

"Well, I have feelings for the Internet." Fang Zhuo saw that these three people did not regard Yike as an Internet company, and he did not open his mouth to flaunt the "combination of the Internet and music", and gave a very honest answer, " I'm thinking about doing a portal website recently."

Zhang Chaoyang, Ding Lei, and Wang Yan, the presidents and CEOs of China's three major portals, looked at each other and laughed in unison.

Otherwise, young people just know how to tell jokes.

Telling this joke in front of the three major portals can trigger a lot of laughter.

For a moment, everyone else in the banquet hall looked at the small Internet circle that was not dead on this side.

Zhang Chaoyang laughed the loudest. He gave Fang Zhuo a thumbs up at Fang Zhuo who had told a good joke, but he said emotionally: "The water in the portal website is very deep, Xiao Fang, Mr. Fang, you can grasp it." Don't stop, don't wade into this muddy water."

Fang Zhuo nodded, and changed his serious tone: "I'm still very optimistic about the prospects of our Internet companies. I think the Internet, especially those that have survived until now, must have a strong spirit."

NetEase's stock has just come back from the suspension of Nasdaq.

Ding Lei sighed: "I feel sorry for you, Mr. Fang's 'head iron' said it well."

Fang Zhuo looked at these three people, and suddenly remembered his ambition. Seeing that the host started to take the stage, he hastened to say: "Sohu, NetEase, and Sina are all listed on NASDAQ, so we must do well. Enterprises cannot fail the trust of shareholders, nor can they harm the interests of shareholders."

Ding Lei frowned slightly, but Wang Yan didn't speak.

Zhang Chaoyang was a little displeased. From what standpoint did you say this?
At this moment, the host's euphemistic but urging voice came from the microphone on the stage, and the program recording required all the leaders and executives to take their seats.

Zhang Chaoyang pulled Ding Lei to whisper something, Fang Zhuo took advantage of the situation and sat beside him with Wang Yan from Sina.

"Our "Win in China" this year is the second year. There are old friends from last year and new friends who just came. But whether they are old friends or new friends, everyone cares about domestic entrepreneurs."

"Because entrepreneurs are the most pioneering people in Huaxia enterprises, and they are the future of our business."

"Many of you here have come from the stage of entrepreneurship, ups and downs, successes and failures. Looking at young entrepreneurs now, I am afraid that I can recall that period of entrepreneurial youth with tears and sweat."

The program crew's shots avoided the young people among the guests present, especially the youngest Xiao Fang, who didn't give any shots at all, so as not to be incompatible with these words.

"Everyone knows that starting a business is not only about hard work, but also about seeing the future."

"I think that if our young entrepreneurs can listen to the insights of our predecessors about the industry and products, they will definitely benefit a lot."

The host's affectionate words made many people nod their heads. Apart from the face of CCTV, everyone here also has the enthusiasm of preaching and teaching. There is no doubt about it.

The layout of the hotel banquet hall is that the seats are roughly surrounded by a circle, and the expressions of each other can almost be seen.

"Lao Niu, the host has already said this. You usually talk so much, why don't you express your opinion?" A man who didn't attend the dinner at noon and didn't know him well took a microphone and teased another founder of Mengniu Group. Niu Gensheng.

Niu Gensheng participated in "Win in China" last year, and this year is the second round.

He has experience and is not stage-frightened. He picked up the microphone and started chatting directly. If nothing else, he just talked about the field of milk that he knows best, the upstream and downstream industry chain of this milk, and his judgment on this market.

Listening to these sharings, Fang Zhuo felt that they were very useful. However, seeing such a founder sitting across from him, the word "melamine" could not help appearing in his mind. Every link in the upstream and downstream industrial chains Strict control is required, especially when it comes to food safety.

"Mr. Fang, don't be nervous." Wang Yan, who was beside him, noticed Fang Zhuo's serious face, and said in a low voice.

Fang Zhuo let out a breath slowly, and then said along the way: "I'm not nervous, I'm just thinking about my own affairs. Hey, Mr. Wang, how is our Sina doing this year? I'm setting up a new investment company here, thinking about where to start As for Sina shares, the last time I asked someone to call Sina to ask."

Wang Yan smiled: "Can I still say that my own is not good?"

Fang Zhuo went straight to the point: "I mentioned the cooperation between Sina and Sunshine TV before, my good guy, those chief writers of your Sina are really merciless when they scold people."

Wang Yan asked in surprise, "Is there such a thing?"

"Yes." Fang Zhuo said in a slightly mysterious tone, "So, what is the cooperation between Sina and Sun TV? Can I buy stocks at this time?"

Wang Yan still said the same thing: "I can say that my own is not good, Mr. Fang?"

Fang Zhuo smiled, that's what you said.

After chatting like this for a few words, he found that Wang Yan, who was separated from power by Mao Daolin, the current president of Sina, was very gentle.

The elite symposium continued, and soon Sohu Zhang Chaoyang, who was eager to watch the camera, got the microphone and spoke.

Zhang Chaoyang, as you can probably tell from his name, yearns for the sun, and has the characteristic of being bright when given a little sunshine, which is rare among entrepreneurs in the early days of the Internet.

Facing the camera of CCTV, he talked eloquently, chatting about the bright future of the Internet.

Zhang Chaoyang's confidence did not come out of thin air. Sohu actually had a situation similar to NetEase, that is, the funds in the account were higher than the market value of the stock market. This was obviously an underestimation.

Talk about it.

Probably the tone and dignity made the industrial leaders present dissatisfied, and soon someone came out to refute, focusing on two points very forcefully.

It is said that the Internet is the future. When will this future come?

You Sohu, and even other portals that went public in the United States suspended their trading, and dropped their pants, how dare you persuade entrepreneurs to join the Internet business?

Ding Lei is a man of science and engineering, Wang Yan tolerated it in Sina, Zhang Chaoyang, he heard two or three senior executives of other companies mention the bright market value, and it was hard to refute for a while.

At this time, the microphone was handed over to Fang Zhuo by the producer Hu Meng.

Fang Zhuo hesitated for three seconds and followed his heart.

He said with a smile: "Listening to the criticism of the Internet by the seniors, let me speak, I feel a little guilty, after all, the prospect of Guahao.com is not very good."

There was a chuckle in the picture under the camera, and the news about the registration network was still widely circulated.

Fang Zhuo changed the subject: "Stop talking, I'm a little unconvinced, so let me talk."

Hey, you should give the microphone to Mr. Fang.

Producer Hu Meng is a little proud.
