Reborn: Billionaire in College

The first thing Chen Pingjiang did when he returned to Dongjiang was to go to the Yan family to show his face.

This guy felt somewhat guilty when facing Yan Yan again. He felt that he was not cut out to be a scumbag and that his time management was not good.

"When are your parents going to come back?" Yan Liming asked during the meal. "I haven't gone fishing with your dad for a long time."

"They will need a while, maybe a month or so."

Before, Chen Pingjiang found an excuse, saying that he was going to Europe to discuss a project, and took his parents there for a visit.

The Yan family didn’t think much about it.

During the meal, mother-in-law Li Yuhua secretly glanced at Chen Pingjiang several times, and seemed to want to say something but stopped herself several times.

Finally, Chen Pingjiang smiled and said, "Aunt Li, just say whatever you want to say."

Just like that, Li Yuhua put down her bowl and chopsticks and asked in a negotiating tone: "Xiao Chen, look... you and Yanyan have been dating for such a long time, we are very satisfied with you, and your parents treat Yanyan well, if it weren't for... if it weren't for your uncle Yan who was going to be transferred soon, I wouldn't have urged you. You decide when to settle your matter."

Chen Pingjiang glanced at Yan Yan who was sitting next to him and saw that she was just eating with her head down. In fact, her pretty face was already full of red. Realizing that Chen Pingjiang was looking at her, she quickly exchanged glances with him, and then retracted her gaze.

At this moment, Yan Yan was extremely nervous and yet extremely excited.

"Sure, no problem for me. Let's pick a date and get engaged after my parents come back."

Chen Pingjiang didn't care whether the day came early or late, since it was just an engagement, not a marriage.

Besides, he felt somewhat guilty towards Yan Yan and wanted to take this opportunity to make amends.

Li Yuhua nodded repeatedly, and the heavy weight in her heart finally fell to the ground. "Okay, okay, I'm relieved that you guys can settle the matter."

On the other side, Yan Liming's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, and the wine spilled.

Although he was anxious, he still felt a little melancholy when the day finally came.

Chen Pingjiang especially understood Yan Liming because he also had a little kid at that time. If the grown-up Chen Yu was kidnapped by a yellow-haired boy one day, he would probably cripple that boy.

"Uncle, when you get over there, I'll look into investing some money and setting up some business there." Chen Pingjiang consoled him with a smile.

Just like that, Yan Liming finally smiled again.

In other cases, the father-in-law helps the son-in-law, but in his case, it was the other way around.

But Yan Liming also needs help. If he wants to make quick progress in his new position, the only card he can play is Chen Pingjiang.

As for Chen Pingjiang, it doesn't matter at all.

With so many properties, it doesn't matter where to settle down. At least there is someone to take care of them if I follow my father-in-law.

Small places don’t need big investments, so you can just set up a customer service center or a subsidiary studio.

After dinner, Yan Liming and Li Yuhua wisely went out for a walk, leaving Chen Pingjiang lying on the bed in the bedroom with his arms around Yan Yan.

"Time flies so fast. It feels like the last time we met was at the Sports College. That was the day the freshmen entered the school." Yan Yan leaned in Chen Pingjiang's arms, gently sniffing the scent of Chen Pingjiang.

Thinking of the situation over there, Chen Pingjiang couldn't help but laugh: "You didn't expect it, Senior Sister Yan Yan is going to get married in the blink of an eye."

While speaking, Chen Pingjiang put his arm around Yan Yan's neck and gently rubbed the delicate skin on her arm, sighing in his heart.

It can be tiring sometimes to be busy with these women. It would be so much easier if everyone was like Cong Nini.

Chen Pingjiang must give an explanation to his nominal girlfriend, but what about the other women?
"Forget it. I can't think of it. I don't want to think about it anymore."

…………

For several days in a row, Chen Pingjiang was in meetings to arrange the new year's work for various groups. He also took some time to go to Beijing to listen to reports from AutoNavi.

"Renren's biggest task today is to promote the rapid implementation of the WeChat payment project and to gain a first-mover advantage in the competition with Alipay. We should make preparations in advance and promote it quickly after the mobile payment license is issued."

"I don't need to say much about Renrengou, right? First, we will set up food delivery stations in first-tier cities and second-tier key cities, recruit riders, and conduct trial operations."

"After the launch of S2, Orange Technology immediately started to develop S3. The key is that we need to solve some patent issues, either by purchasing or developing. In short, we want to enter the global market with S3 and compete head-on with Apple and Samsung."

"Zhizhen Catering is preparing for an IPO this year."

"In addition, the Qingshan Lake Orange Super Factory will expand its second phase, Daqin Chip will also produce products, and the wafer factory will also begin formal preparations."

“We also need to prepare to start building a cultural and entertainment ecosystem.”

Work plans were arranged one by one.

If 2010 was the year of setting sail, then 2011 is the year of accumulating strength and making a breakthrough. The task is no easier than that of the previous year.

WeChat Pay, food delivery, Orange S3, wafer fab, etc., all of them are big projects. The executives present here all know the importance. Strictly speaking, except for Toutiao, the major groups did not make big moves last year and no big projects were launched.

This year is different.

Not only does it have to fight against Alibaba, but it also has to engage in intrigue with companies like Qualcomm and Samsung.

As the big show at the beginning of the year, the launch of Orange S2 has also touched the hearts of many people. Not only is there tension within Orange Technology, but other sister groups are also paying more attention to it.

When Orange S1 was released, there were not many domestic competitors, at most Samsung and HTC.

It’s different now. Not to mention Apple’s entry into China, Samsung S2 is also coming in with great momentum, and Xiaomi will be released in the second half of the year.

Yes, even though Chen Pingjiang poached Lin Bin and Zhou Guangping, Lei Jun still managed Xiaomi.

Because he has always wanted to make mobile phones, even after his failed attempt to invest in Meizu, his belief in making mobile phones has never wavered.

The challenges faced by Orange S2 are much greater than before. No one wants to be like Meizu in the past, just passing through the night sky without leaving any sound.

To become a great mobile phone manufacturer, it is not enough to just make one product well, but every product must be a best-seller.

We must move forward if we do not advance, or we will retreat. Even a powerful company like Apple has not made any major moves in the two or three generations of iPhone 14 and 15, which has been criticized. If it were not for the support of Apple fans and Huawei's inability to go abroad, it would be hard to say who would win.

But even so, iPhone 15's sales in China have plummeted.

When Huawei is spending money on Kunlun Glass, Basalt Architecture, and satellite calls, the biggest change to the iPhone 15 is that the entire series is upgraded to USB-C interface. It's as funny as a joke.

What's even more speechless is that only the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max are equipped with USB 3.2 interfaces, which support higher transmission speeds, while the basic iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus are equipped with USB 2.0 interfaces. In terms of charging, the iPhone 15 models only support USB-C accessories certified by the Apple Made for iPhone (MFi) program, which means that cables without MFi certification will be limited in charging speed and will not be compatible with the Android ecosystem. Only Apple's own interfaces can be used.

Oh, and a 1-meter data cable costs 145 yuan, a 2-meter data cable costs 243 yuan, and the charging head also costs money.

The leeks were so scared that they dared not grow anymore.

Also paying attention to this press conference are a large number of users as well as Xiaomi, Apple, HTC and Samsung.

Xiaomi is not to be mentioned, Apple and Samsung paid attention to the Orange S2 conference simply because these two companies never expected that the smartphone market share in the mainland market would reach 40% last year, which only dropped after the release of iPhone 4. Even so, Orange S1 still had a market share of 29% throughout the year.

In comparison, Apple only has 18%, Samsung has 14%, and then it is the turn of the four Chinese companies Coolpad, plus Lenovo, Meizu, HTC, and Motorola.

How could these two established companies have foreseen that a small company that had only emerged for one or two years would become a leading player in the domestic smartphone market in such a short period of time?

For some patents, Orange Technology hasn’t even paid!

But I can’t sue him because Chen Pingjiang didn’t sell the product overseas anyway.

The people who are most concerned about Orange S2 are probably the majority of users.

The Orange S1 was an instant success, bringing a very good user experience, and most importantly, it had a high cost-performance ratio. When the configuration was similar, the price of the Orange S1 was only 70% of that of Samsung and Apple.

This is the greatest humanity.

Since Orange Mobile launched the beauty camera, other manufacturers have begun to follow suit. However, research and development not only takes time, but can only be installed on the next generation of mobile phones.

Chen Pingjiang looked at the list of invited guests handed over by Lin Bin with great interest. After seeing a familiar name, Chen Pingjiang smiled and said, "Boss Lei is here in person too?"

Lin Bin also smiled: "We have a good relationship. When he heard that we were going to hold a press conference, he personally contacted me and asked for an invitation."

Chen Pingjiang patted him on the shoulder and said, "I guess he's here to learn from a master. I heard that he has poached a lot of people from Meizu and is ambitious to make mobile phones. He's even produced a prototype."

Lin Bin nodded: "The news I got is that Mr. Lei plans to start from the low end. He can't compete with us and Apple in the mid-to-high end. He has no capital to compete at all."

"In short, you should pay more attention to this person, as he is destined to become a disruptor in the smartphone market."

Chen Pingjiang's memory of Lei Jun still stops at the Michelin press conference. At that press conference, Lei Jun specially invited the heads of Wei, Xiaopeng and Li Xian to hang them up and beat them.

When it comes to marketing skills, Chen Pingjiang has to back off even when facing Lei Jun.

He is truly a god who can make it to the hot searches just by saying a few words. Chen Pingjiang estimates that even if he owns Weibo now, he may not be as good as him.

Whether it was Xiaomi M1’s hunger marketing back then, or Mi Shijie’s 5000 yuan refundable deposit later, they both really understood marketing.

Oh, there is another impressive thing.

A couple was chatting on their phones on their windowsill. As a result, because the wife said that she only wanted to buy Huawei, Xiaomi’s legal department complained and the video was removed from the shelves! ! ?
Chen Pingjiang was stunned by the amazing operation.

Later on, Huawei and Xiaomi quarreled from time to time. Lei Jun himself hadn't said anything yet, but Lu Weibing was jumping around on Weibo every day, slandering this and that. It was so boring.

Xiaomi fans call Huawei fans "sea dogs", and Huawei fans call Xiaomi fans "mi monkeys".

It is a perfect match for the loved ones to be sad and the enemies to be happy. (End of this chapter)
