Reborn Tech Maniac

Chapter 76 The Crazy Little Overlord Sales

Just as Zhou Mi expected, Zhou Weikun was very interested in Zheru, a Chinese company that has developed a complete set of information-based office solutions. Zheru Xiangjiang Company.

One of the benefits of using the original time and space celebrities is that they know the basics, have ready-made example models for evaluation, and can be entrusted with important tasks to some extent.

Therefore, Tang Huan's style is also extremely straightforward, and Zhou Weikun must officially take office tomorrow, and the first important task is to create a sample project for the Huo family's industry.

As for how Zhou Weikun handles a series of trivial matters of resigning from IBM, he doesn't need to bother.

In fact, Tang Huan had a plan in mind, that is, in Asia, where the economic base is increasingly strong, he will try to compete head-on with mainframes and minicomputers from IBM, HP, and DEC for users, so as to become the next market protagonist - 16 individuals. The computer sums up the experience.

Anyway, this place is far away from the United States. Even if there are some unusual movements, it may not arouse the vigilance of the predators.

In the following time, Tang Huan quickly dealt with all the chores accumulated after the company was first established.

Starting tomorrow, the daily business of the company will be in charge of the professional manager Zhou Weikun. As for a confidant like Zhou Mi, he will look at the overall situation and check for gaps. Basically, he is freed from trivial matters and can do some constructive work. matter.

After getting off work from the company, Tang Huan took Zhou Mi, Lu Xiaohu and other six people to buy a lot of food and drink, and went back to the villa in Kowloon Tong to have a drink and talk freely about the situation over the years, and naturally sighed.

In fact, this expensive villa can be bought or not. Tang Huan, who has to fly back and forth between the United States and Asia every month, can go to a luxury hotel with good service, but since he plans to stay in Xiangjiang establishes a business base, so it needs such a thing to decorate the facade.

However, in such a big house, even though brothers like Lu Xiaohu serve as bodyguards and take turns guarding the house, when a person sleeps in the bedroom at night, it is inevitable to feel lonely, not to mention that Tang Huan has too much yang energy and is almost at the point where he is full of energy. .

……

The next day, Tang Huan came to the office and saw that the two newcomers, Zhou Weikun and Feng Xingjun, had come to report early.

So, at the first company meeting with a real boss in attendance, Tang Huan introduced them to the former employees.

Seeing Zhou Weikun, a native of Xiangjiang, as the manager, the expressions on everyone's faces seemed to be obviously relaxed.

Seeing this scene, Tang Huan smiled calmly in his heart. As a reborn, he never made mistakes in grasping the general situation.

After announcing some important principles and goals at the company's macro level, Tang Huan handed over the leadership of the meeting to Zhou Weikun, and took the recent schedule from Hu Yinmeng to watch.

"Both Mr. Huo and Ms. Fang will come to visit today. The former is to sign a contract to purchase our company's products, and the latter is to confirm the cooperation in the "Shanghai Beach" TV series. In addition, Shi Chongtang, vice president of the Asia-Pacific region, will also come. Report on work." Hu Yinmeng leaned over and explained in a low voice.

Smelling the faint fragrance, Tang Huan nodded calmly, "You should make preparations for entertaining guests first."

Seeing Hu Yinmeng leave the conference room, many people had disappointed looks in their eyes.

You know, in high-tech companies like Zheru, the gender ratio of employees is naturally more men than women, and many technicians are college students with engineering backgrounds.

Therefore, as soon as Hu Yinmeng, such an outstanding beauty, appeared in the company yesterday, it naturally set off a wave of idols.

Coupled with the recent popularity of the "Shanghai Beach" novel, Hu Yinmeng has once again gained the reputation of a literary young woman.

And newspapers like Dongfang Daily spared no effort to collect all kinds of information from Baodao before and after the author Hu Yinmeng changed careers, and even the rumors that Hu's mother would cancel her daughter's film contract even at the expense of liquidated damages , and then published it on Xiangjiang.

Invisibly, Hu Yinmeng's star halo not only did not fade, but became brighter.

Although everyone is guessing in their hearts that this celebrity secretary is the boss's forbidden descendant, it is also a benefit to be able to appreciate it up close.

Even though many people are mentally distracted, in a young company like Zheru, office efficiency is inherently high, and meetings end quickly.

As soon as Tang Huan returned to the office, he received a report call from Shi Chongtang. Because of the need to coordinate the production plan of Xiaobawang game consoles, his schedule to come to Xiangjiang had to be postponed.

“I originally thought that the initially planned output of [-] units would be enough to cope with orders for a period of time, but in just one week, it was all absorbed by the U.S. market, and now the purchase plan for electronic components has been disrupted. "Shi Chongtang's voice sounded a little hoarse, but it was full of excitement.

Selling 2000 game consoles means not counting game cassettes, and the sales reached [-] million US dollars. After deducting the production costs and the large expenses of inviting celebrities such as Michael Jackson and Brooke Shields to endorse advertisements, the profit Even if the rate is not comparable to software products, it is still very impressive, not to mention that the absolute value of profits can be increased by cumulative sales.

This amazing performance made Zheru's staff ecstatic, but Tang Huan behaved very indifferently.

I remember that two months after the launch of the Nintendo FC game console, sales had reached 50 units.

What's more, the current market situation is better. The stage of the second generation of game consoles is an era of crazy money.

However, in Tang Huan's view, selling such consumer electronic products is far less fulfilling than changing people's work and life patterns through computers.

"I think we can build another production plant in Xiangjiang, so that we can be more flexible in coordinating game consoles and TV system matching." Shi Chongtang suggested.

TVs can be divided into two categories according to color frequency modulation methods: PAL and NTSC.

The United Kingdom, Hong Kong, Macau, Longguo Mainland, and Singapore use the former, while most American countries such as the United States, Canada, and Mexico, as well as Formosa, RB, South Korea, and the Philippines all use the latter.

Due to cost reasons, it is impossible for the Xiaobawang game console to support two systems at the same time, and there is no need for that, and it can be coordinated through orders.

In terms of sales volume, the United States and RB, which use NTSC, will definitely occupy an absolute advantage, but it is impossible to give up the order of PAL. If a third factory is established in Xiangjiang, it will indeed be more conducive to coordinated production.

What's more, in the original history, after a period of time, Xiangjiang will gradually become one of the important production bases of the second-generation game consoles.

Thinking of this, Tang Huan replied thoughtfully, "What you said makes sense, so let's make a plan quickly. While I'm staying in Xiangjiang during this period, I can try to get the project started as soon as possible."

After ending the call, Tang Huan made a rough estimate. According to the current development momentum of the Xiaobawang game console, next year's sales may exceed the main business of software. It can be described as crazy. No wonder the market will eventually collapse.

If God doesn't take what he wants, he will take the blame. It's time for Shigeru Miyamoto to develop his famous game Mario to further make money.

When the market crashes, my 16-bit game console should be launched and ready to go.

Tang Huan was thinking in his heart that Mr. Huo had arrived.

This man, who is in his 30s this year, just married the Miss Hong Kong champion last year, and this year he gave birth to a baby boy. He is very proud of himself.

With the comeback of his grandfather and the consolidation of his status, Tang Huan is no longer a simple rising star in the shopping mall in the eyes of some well-informed Hong Kong tycoons.

Mr. Huo rushed to sign the contract today. The meaning is self-evident, but when the business has reached the level of the Huo family, no transaction can be easy later.

Because of their qualifications of studying in Britain and the United States, Mr. Huo and Tang Huan talked about a wide range of topics. One wanted to make friends, and the other knew it well. They looked like they hated seeing each other later, and their friendship skyrocketed.

Even after Hu Yinmeng finished his tea and left the office, Mr. Huo joked: "Brother, you are really a hero. You can bring such a stunning celebrity with you from the territory of Baodao. Brother, I can only I can say admiration."

"Brother Huo praised too much. You married the most beautiful Hong Kong lady last year. I don't know how many men in Xiangjiang are envious and jealous, and women are sad and disappointed. That is a happy life." Tang Huan laughed haha.

"Xiangjiang is so beautiful, I will take you to see her some other day." Mr. Huo made an expression that a man could understand.

It is undeniable that properly discussing women's topics can also increase the friendship between men.

The two were chatting animatedly when the door opened and Fang Yihua walked in with a smile on his face, "Originally I planned to wait outside, but when I heard that the distinguished guest Mr. Tang was meeting was Mr. Huo, I decided to disturb him."

Seeing that it was Fang Yihua, Mr. Huo was slightly startled, then shook his head and said with a smile: "Why bother, Miss Fang is too out of touch."

Descendants of the Huo family have married several celebrities, not to mention that the eldest son Huo married the Miss Hong Kong champion. Naturally, he and Fang Yihua were familiar with each other.

In fact, the beauty pageant of Miss Hong Kong appeared in 1946. It was not until 1972 that TVB began to hold the annual Miss Hong Kong election, and it was all organized by TVB afterwards.

And the well-known Miss Hong Kong selection in the usual sense should be counted from 1973, and the No.4 in that session was Zhao Yazhi.

In 1977, Zhu Lingling became the champion of Miss Hong Kong and Miss Photogenic, the first contestant to win two awards.

In 1978, Zhu Lingling married into a wealthy family and received a gift of 1000 million Hong Kong dollars from her husband's family. The wedding dress alone was worth 5000 U.S. dollars. There were 360 ​​seats on the wedding day, and the entire wedding banquet cost more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars.

This grand event, said to be the grandest and grandest wedding banquet in Xiangjiang in the 1970s, became a popular story in the city.

All of a sudden, the focus of people's discussion gathered here, and the parties involved directly brushed their reputation to worship.

The influence of TVB and Miss Hong Kong naturally also benefited a lot. It can be said that Zhu Lingling created a precedent for Miss Hong Kong to marry into a wealthy family, which made the aura of Miss Hong Kong more valuable.

In Xiangjiang, a small place where rich people gather, the status of TV stations and film companies with powerful star-making machines can be imagined. What's more, Fang Yihua is a leader among executives, and Mr. Huo is not easy to get big.

"I didn't expect that Miss Fang and Boss Tang also had business dealings?" Mr. Huo immediately asked.

"Boss Tang has offered an advertising order worth 1000 million yuan, and he also wants to invest in the filming of the TV series "Shanghai Beach". How dare I neglect it? I must seize the opportunity." Fang Yihua explained with a smile.

Mr. Huo took a surprised look at the faintly smiling Tang Huan. Obviously, he discovered that the young man he befriended vigorously was also very good at gaining reputation.
