Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 219 Invariably low-key

At nine o'clock in the morning on November 11, a black Audi arrived at the Economic and Technological Development Zone in Kunshan.

Inside the car are the three executives of Yike, Fang Zhuo, and Yu Hong and Sun Qi, who have been promoted by half a level.

Originally, Marketing Director Yu Hong was responsible for the development of the southern market and channel development, but because the company urgently adjusted its direction, she is now in charge of the nationwide market.

As for Sun Qi, he was introduced by product director Xu Kedeng, and he was promoted in a short period of time to be responsible for the company's supply chain management. This time, for the same reason, Yike set up a supply support center, a department at the same level as the product , he himself was upgraded from the former vice president of supply to the senior vice president of the company.

"How soon will this factory be open?"

When the car arrived at the destination, Fang Zhuo stopped the domestic market development that he had been talking about all the way, and asked the taciturn Sun Qi.

"At the latest in mid-November, Mr. Fang, I think we can try to assemble P11 here to further reduce costs." Sun Qi replied.

Fang Zhuo nodded slightly: "Go, get out of the car and have a look."

The factory in Kunshan was reselling machines due to poor profitability. When I met Sun Qi who was looking for a target, he bought it smoothly after several communications. At the same time, a new production line will be introduced soon.

Yike holds a controlling stake in this factory, and the deputy director of the original factory chose to stay. With the addition of some technical backbones, the framework of the factory has not been damaged too much, and a certain productivity has been maintained.

"Hello, you are Mr. Fang, right?"

The deputy factory director, Gu Zhe, had already received the news and was waiting at the gate of the factory. When he saw someone coming, he hurried forward to shake hands and say hello.

Among the three people who have come into contact with Sun Qi, excluding the lady, the young and somewhat excessive man is naturally the big boss of the group.

"Director Gu, I will trouble you in the future." Fang Zhuo smiled and shook hands with Gu Zhe, "Mr. Sun must have introduced the situation of the company to you. As for me, I am a layman. If you have any problems in production, please tell us more. Don’t be afraid of trouble, just be afraid that things won’t be produced well.”

Gu Zhe liked this kind of meeting without being too polite, and said with a smile: "Yes, Mr. Fang, you can rest assured about this, we are all familiar with it, and we have also confirmed the machines and molds, so there will be no problems."

"That's good." Fang Zhuo said, "Let's take a tour of the factory."

The factory area is rented, but the contract period is still many years, and it is cheaper to pack it. The main reason is that Yike can retain many employees. The original factory manager is very concerned about this.

The factory area is not open, and it is deserted and unpopular, but it looks very clean.

The three of Fang Zhuo briefly browsed through under the guidance of the deputy factory director Gu Zhe. Fang Zhuo and Yu Hong didn't say much, but Sun Qi, who was silent along the way, became chatty. Let’s talk about the urgent requirements of the new production line later.

Judging from the current situation since the launch of the M1, the original plan of [-] units at the end of the year is not a big problem. In recent days, the sales of dozens of units in a single day can only be achieved in direct-operated stores.

If this situation can be maintained, Yike will be able to make several million profits by the end of the year.

"Mr. Fang, I have arranged lunch. The temperature is a bit low today. Let's chat while eating?" Deputy Director Gu Zhe invited with a smile.

"President Gu, you're welcome. In fact, you must have noticed that I don't know much about technology. I came here to see our field and show my face to give you peace of mind." Fang Zhuo took the initiative to shake his hand. The hand of the factory manager, "The products we make are going to be distributed to the national and overseas markets. Maybe the factory manager has never heard of me, but I am absolutely open in my work."

Gu Zhe exchanged pleasantries and insisted on taking the three leaders to dinner.

Fang Zhuo refused twice, but the deputy director did not give up until he took out the itinerary and confirmed that there would be a flight to Yangcheng in the afternoon.

The group continued to chat about the production line until 10:30 in the morning, when Sun Qi stayed to confirm some work arrangements, while Fang Zhuo and Yu Hong went straight to Pudong International Airport and went to Yangcheng together.

Of the five directly-operated stores, there are two in Yangcheng and Shencheng. Yu Hong's previous work was also concentrated in this area.

Fang Zhuo went to Yangcheng to inspect the piece of land that Guahao.com bought first and then arrived in Macong. Zhou Xin couldn't be entrusted with this job, so he had to do it himself.

Compared with Yike personally looking for excellent investors and seeking help from IDG Capital, it is much more convenient to do things here because there is a greeting. According to the plan, it will be divided into three phases.

The main reason is that I am worried about the account funds of the registered network. If it is too large at one time, it will only be a waste.

"Are you flying back tomorrow night? Is it too late?" Yu Hong asked while waiting for the plane.

"I don't have the skills to spare, and I have no choice. Tomorrow night, I have an appointment with the vice president of the branch of ICBC." Fang Zhuo was full of thoughts, "Headhunter recommended and made a back-up call. I want to bring him in for easy payment. The project is also short of people.”

Yu Hong smiled and said, "Why do you feel that there is a shortage of people everywhere? The vice president is willing to come to a small company like ours?"

"It's just that there is a shortage of people everywhere. I can't wait to split the people in the company in half." Fang Zhuo shook his head, "Everyone has their own ambitions. Besides, the vice-president who was given options by registered network. .”

Yu Hong wanted to ask again, but she saw Pan Ben, the vice president of IDG Capital who was in charge of the project, walking quickly.

From Shencheng to Yangcheng, because there was really no time, Pan Ben simply made an appointment to chat on the plane, and thoroughly implemented Binggui's swift execution.

Yu Hong admired this very much.

"Mr. Fang, Mr. Yu." Pan Ben greeted, and reached out to take out the contract from his briefcase, "I came from the 23rd floor, so Mr. Fang has to sign it."

Fang Zhuo took over the contract, and the official seal was stamped by Su Wei in the company when he received a call in the morning. This is a follow-up investment contract of IDG Capital, which has been reviewed by the law firm yesterday.

Although Fang Zhuo called Xiong Xiaoge just to find help in matters, but after being moved, the other party preferred to have financial ties rather than pure favors.

In this follow-up investment, IDG directly invested 400 million US dollars, which is almost comparable to the investment in the second round of Guahao.com last time.

Xu Xin of Capital Today knew the amount and felt that her group of people really cared about food but not money. However, she didn't hesitate too much, but the company's process was slower.

"Boarding, go up and sign."

Fang Zhuo simply turned two pages before hearing the broadcast announcement.

"Okay." Pan Ben was not afraid that he would escape even if he got on the plane.

This time IDG Capital invested in Yike, including Capital Today and Shenxin Venture Capital. The three companies are all angel rounds, but they all have no plans to announce the news. This also has a tacit understanding with Yike.

Yike hopes to keep a low profile. It is unknown what the outcome will be when the M1 enters the overseas market. Propaganda and financing may not be beneficial in the future.

As for IDG, Capital Today and Shenxin Venture Capital, they feel that the reputation in the circle... can't be called reputation, but the face in the circle must be taken into account.

Even if some things are done, there is no need to say them with great fanfare.

Just when Capital Today also made a decision through the process, Xu Xin also received an interview from the media, asking him to talk about the investment insider of Capital Today and Guahao.com.

This is amazing.

A new round of opportunities is in front of her eyes. Others are still entangled in the past, but Xu Xin can't talk about the pursuit of investment, so she has to express her previous dissatisfaction slightly against her conscience.

Very light, very slight, very old.
