Chapter 168 Promotion
Yu Xing used a weekend night to confirm the position of his good brother, and at the same time consolidated his relationship with investors.
If you don’t fight, you won’t know each other. If you fight more, you will get to know each other more.
Monday is Bai Xiaosheng''s regular meeting, and there are more plans to adjust the office layout this week. The fifth floor of Pegatron International was completely rented. The "old district" seems a bit narrow due to the expansion of employees. This time, part of it was moved to the "new district" separated by a wall.
Liu Hao from Zhilian Recruitment has joined Bai Xiaosheng. In order to show his importance to him, half of the "new district" is used to resettle the recruitment business team. If it is not enough, continue to rent the lower half of the floor. As an executive who has expanded territory, he also has an independent office in the "new district".
Bai Xiaosheng''s work in the second half of the year is destined to be numerous, and it has to be carefully consulted before the business is officially launched.
Yu Xing habitually ran two laps in the community, and then had breakfast briefly and went upstairs with all his heart.
Then, he saw that Liu Jiankai, the old friend of Capital, was already waiting for him.
"Mr. Liu, what did you do when you came early this morning? Why didn''t I see you?" Yu Xing was surprised, "Was it because he was here to deliver the message for Mr. Xu?"
"I just saw you having breakfast downstairs. If you don''t want to disturb you, just come up first." Liu Jiankai said with a smile, "Yesterday, Mr. Xu called me to meet you and the people from Letao.com together, but I told her that I was drunk and couldn''t get over. When I woke up this morning, I saw her assigned me in a text message to be responsible for the contact with Letao.com."
Yu Xing looked at Liu Jiankai in front of him lightly.
Liu Jiankai got a vaccination first: "After scolding Mr. Xu, you can''t scold me."
"What did I scold her? Yesterday was just discussing the future of Letao.com." Yu Xing defended himself and looked at the time again, "I have a meeting today. I have to discuss the specific arrangement of the recruitment business. Can you wait until I finish?"
Liu Jiankai thought for a while and replied, "Then let me lend your hospitality room to use it. I will call Mr. Bi and ask him to come over. Mr. Yu, I''m not idle, this is my job."
Yu Xing himself has used Today Capital’s office, so he naturally doesn’t mind Liu Jiankai and Bi Sheng communicating here.
He nodded and said, "Then you go straight. You probably don''t go to the guest room today. If there are people, you can go to the next door. You two will pour tea by yourself. If you are hungry, go downstairs to eat. I''m mine."
Liu Jiankai politely asked President Yu to be busy first, and then smiled friendly at the assistant who poured tea for him, then walked into the reception room and invited Bi Sheng to come and see him.
Regarding whether to invest in Letao.com, he called his boss before coming, and he felt that he was more inclined, and this was probably related to last night''s communication. Of course, there were probably twists and turns in the communication process, which can be felt from the tone on the phone.
Liu Jiankai crossed his legs in the guest room, drinking tea and waiting while browsing information on his mobile phone.
About half an hour, Bi Sheng arrived at the headquarters of his good brothers.
"Mr. Yu was having a meeting next to him. It probably took a long time. His recruitment business needs to be expanded." Liu Jiankai had met Bi Sheng before, and he made a small bet with President Yu that time, "Mr. Xu is interested in Letao.com, and I have to execute this job again. Is Mr. Bi interested in setting up another branch in Shencheng?"
Bi Sheng was hesitant, not sure if this was a condition from today''s capital.
Liu Jiankai observed his expression and smiled and said, "I just asked casually. Well, I also feel that the East China side needs a team to be stationed. Although Mr. Xu said that Letao.com needs to develop further, many brands have headquarters in Shanghai, so they still need to visit. Moreover, the market in East China must be the focus. Coupled with the competition with Vipshop, the start here will be faster."
He has already learned from Mr. Xu about the development of Letao.com, and he is considering how to assist in the implementation. What he provides now is only reference opinions.
Bi Sheng thought for a while and nodded slightly: "It is necessary, including in Yangcheng, we need to grab the first, second and third-tier brands for the final product processing, and it is best to sign an exclusive contract. I repeatedly considered this last night. In addition to the accounting period, I planned to give up part of the profit and get a layered rebate. Anyway, I will make the scale as soon as possible now."
He mentioned this and mentioned the conditions required by his good brother yesterday: "Mr. Liu, please help me find more talents. You have to develop within this week. You have to use the fastest speed to develop. I don''t plan to continue the recording of "You''re the One".
Liu Jiankai smiled and said, "This is also the reason why I invited Mr. Bi here today. In fact, is there any more suitable search for talents than finding Bai Xiaosheng? The CEO, vice president and deputy sales director of Zhilian Recruitment were all poached by Mr. Yu, and the website has hundreds of thousands of users. They can directly screen and find people. I even think they can poach people from Vipshop."
Bi Sheng’s eyes lit up, do you poach people from Vipshop? I had never thought about this before.
"Anyway, we are going to work hard to maximize the effect of the 8 million US dollars!" Liu Jiankai''s eyes were bright.
Bi Sheng focused on the key points.
The two of them communicated for a long time about the all-round development of Letao.com, and waited until 11 o''clock to wait for Yu Xing''s ending meeting.
As soon as Bi Sheng saw his good brother, he asked to help poach people.
"Oh? That''s how you coordinate resources? Yes, it''s true that three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. Okay, let''s be the first revenue for our business development." Yu Xing was surprised and quickly arranged, "Wait for me, I''ll call someone to connect."
He stood directly at the door and raised his voice: "Lei Weiming, Lei Weiming, come, come!"
Lei Weiming, who had not yet walked away, quickly came to the hospitality room.
Bi Sheng made his own request, and Liu Jiankai next to him gave him some supplements.
At the end, Bi Sheng asked, "How much does it cost to do you like this?"
Lei Weiming didn''t think there was any difficulty in this kind of work, but he saw the relationship with the boss. After he hesitating a little, he stretched out two fingers. The company offered a unit price in a friendly manner and gave a tea and water fee of 20,000 yuan. It just happened to try the effect of communication through the resources on Baixiaosheng''s site.
After seeing this, Yu Xing turned his head and said to Bi Sheng, "The package price of 200,000 yuan depends on our first order business. I''ll give you a 60% discount."
120,000.
Bi Sheng responded: "Okay, some of our teams in Shencheng and Yangcheng will ask, Mr. Yu, Mr. Lei, thank you."
Lei Weiming pursed his lips and said politely: "You''re welcome, you''re welcome, Mr. Bi, don''t worry, I will definitely find the most qualified talent for you."
Yu Xing patted the vice president on the shoulder and signaled him to go and do his job first.
Lei Weiming walked out of the office and pointed at the boss who was about to close the door: it costs 20,000, which is 20,000.
Yu Xing frowned: "What do you want another 20,000 yuan? Go and do it quickly."
Lei Weiming: “…”
Bi Sheng, who was sitting in the conference room, said dissatisfiedly, "Hey, Mr. Yu, don''t want to kill me. Why do you want 20,000 yuan? Are you acting? 120,000 yuan, not even a single son, you said it was 60% off!"
Yu Xing closed the door and shook his head: "Hey, the company is just about to do business, he is eager to open an order, don''t worry, Mr. Bi, I spit on my mouth." Liu Jiankai, who was watching, always felt something was wrong, but he didn''t understand the market. After careful consideration, he found that 120,000 is not a lot. Such customized services are probably not easy to estimate. Anyway, he is also a shareholder of Bai Xiaosheng. Even if there is a premium, the service will definitely be in place, both sides can do it.
The tea was brewed heavily, and Yu Xing sat down.
He has discussed a lot about Letao.com''s strategy and development yesterday. This is just a detailed discussion on his ideas, and by the way, see if Liu Jiankai has any supplements.
But Liu Jiankai not only proposed the implementation of market division, but nothing else went beyond the previous discussion framework.
As noon approached, these two people came to Bai Xiaosheng naturally had to take care of a meal, because everyone had something to do, so the meal at the Shaxian Hotel was enough.
At two o''clock in the afternoon, Bi Sheng stood at the door of the hotel and shook hands with his good brother. He had already bought a flight ticket to Beijing in the afternoon in advance. This time he went back was betting on his own belongings.
Bi Sheng is a little nervous because of his treacherous personality. When he thinks that he will spend all his savings, he is still a little nervous.
He took a few breaths and asked, "Mr. Yu, I have no way out of retreat this time. Do you think Letao.com can do this? Can you really do this?"
"Xu Xin thinks it''s OK, Liu Qiangdong thinks it''s OK, and you think it''s OK, and you still ask me now?" Yu Xing looked at Bi Sheng with a complicated expression and gave his own opinion, "I do think it''s OK. If you don''t do it in the end, you can''t let you starve no matter how you come to Bai Xiaosheng."
Bi Sheng shook hands heavily: "Good brother, then I''ll wait for Kestrel to invest money!"
Yu Xing shook his hand repeatedly and then said goodbye to Mr. Bi.
Bi Sheng got into the car, that is, he got into the boat.
Liu Jiankai watched the taxi go away together, and then asked Yu Xing: "Mr. Yu, do you think Letao.com can really make a way out?"
"I have been talking to Bi Sheng for a long time. He has tried many things from last year to this year. Even if he really doesn''t succeed, he won''t fall to the point where he can''t afford to eat." Yu Xing smiled, "Best of all, once the company is sold, he can get back some investment."
Liu Jiankai explored his true attitude: "Are you not optimistic?"
"No, I was not optimistic before, but I am quite optimistic now." Yu Xing pondered, "The strategic plan is very clear. The team has you today''s capital to watch. We Bai Xiaosheng will do our best to poach people. The market competition in vertical e-commerce is not that fierce. The funds are temporarily enough. What are the reasons for failure?"
Liu Jiankai nodded slightly and hesitated for five seconds and made a suggestion: "Mr. Yu, when I came today, I talked about this with Mr. Xu on the phone. I had an extra idea at that time. I asked Mr. Xu, ''If Mr. Yu can do vertical e-commerce by himself, can we invest?'' What do you think of Mr. Xu?"
Yu Xing took out a cigarette, handed it to Mr. Liu, and then lit it and smiled, "It looks like a good thing to say, depending on your attitude."
Liu Jiankai took a sip of cigarette and replied, "Yes, Mr. Xu said, ''Then you can vote now''."
Seeing that President Yu only smiled, he sincerely advised him: "Mr. Yu, you can really do it yourself. Although Mr. Xu''s temper is not very good at dealing with you sometimes, we all recognize you and have confidence in you doing this. Just like what you said just now, why don''t you end up directly?"
Yu Xing shook his head: "I''m so tired. At this time last year, I was really tired and almost exhausted. At that time, I could actually get hundreds of people. Hey, the light assets are operating well now, let alone, you can share the fruits of this success through investment."
"Mr. Yu, you should play more if you have the ability. You are still so young." Liu Jiankai felt a pity, "Bai Xiaosheng is not bad, but the market for e-commerce is very big."
Yu Xing clamped the cigarette on his finger, shook his head and nodded: "Do Bai Xiaosheng first. I like to post lawyer letters on the wall. It would be even better if I had the chance to post from Alibaba, Penguin and Baidu. If I could do Bai Xiaosheng well, I would also have to think about what I can do. Yes, you said, I am still young, why are you anxious?"
Liu Jiankai said "um" and smoked silently, respecting Mr. Yu''s current thoughts.
When the cigarette was finished, he asked, "Mr. Yu, your price comparison network is a bit damaged."
"Do you still want to put pressure on me?" Yu Xing threw the cigarette **** into the trash can.
"No, it''s just my feeling of being a passerby. I see you compared the books prices of Dangdang.com and Zhuoyue.com yesterday." Liu Jiankai said with a smile, "I will be scolded."
Yu Xing sneered: "Our chairman is not even afraid of being beaten, but he is still afraid of being scolded? Can scold us to death?"
Liu Jiankai nodded happily: "Yeah, I can''t scold you. I like to see others scold you."
Yu Xing recognized Liu Jiankai''s language expression and said, "Okay, Mr. Liu, when you come to Bai Xiaosheng in the future, if Mr. Xu still comes to put pressure on us, then I will send you to dock with her."
Liu Jiankai smiled and shook his head: "Are you so unfavorable to Vanc?"
"Yes, as you said, we will be scolded. Once we get scolded, we will pay more attention. As we pay more attention, users will find that we have also compared the prices of Vancl''s shirts and other products." Yu Xing replied casually, "Let''s have fun together."
Liu Jiankai imagined for a moment: "Mr. Yu, your words made me fascinated. Okay, I''ll wait and see."
He also said goodbye and left, and needed to go back and report to the boss today''s communication.
Yu Xing did not go upstairs immediately, smoked another cigarette, thinking about life for a while before going back to work.
The recruitment team is expanding, the advertising business has been connected, and Bai Xiaosheng''s recent user growth is also very fast.
As Yu Xing said, the bizarre fugitive incident has really become Bai Xiaosheng''s most broken news, and from this perspective, it hits the workplace user who had heard of the website''s name.
Office buildings, elevators, subways, buses, and advertising scenes in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen are all covered, and the fugitive incident has become a curious straw, allowing many people to register.
However, Yu Xing has not been busy for a few days. Dangdang.com and Zhuoyue.com, which just started a **** price battle this month, could not sit still. The price comparison network clearly compared the prices of the two books together, why is it so unconventional?
Dangdang.com and Zhuoyue.com have cheap or high-priced books, so what they see is the harm caused by Price Bishop Network to their own homes, and they also call to communicate but are rejected from taking it off the shelves.
On July 15, Dangdang.com''s boss Li Guoqing was interviewed by the media, mentioning the existence of price comparison network and directly named the person behind it.
"Our Dangdang.com is not afraid of any price war, but some websites deliberately mark our prices incorrectly. This is a shameless smear! Like the price comparison website, like Bai Xiaosheng, and Yu Xing, who was on the show, his approach is shameless!"
"He is just having **** with Zhuoyue.com!"
"He has collected money from Zhuoyue.com!"
