Chapter 111 Why are there so many Wang Tengs? Memoirs of Dahua's Past
Chen Yansen put his luggage in the living room, turned around, went downstairs and walked towards the Entrepreneurship Park.
At present, the development of each channel of FoxTao is on the right track. He is in the company, but he only controls the general direction and assigns all the execution-level work.
Passing by the express delivery station, I happened to see Song Yang sitting at the door, reading a novel on his mobile phone.
"Yangyang, what are you busy with?"
Chen Yansen nudged him with his elbow and asked with a smile.
"I've been following Chen Dong's new book, The Great Ruler, recently. I'm telling you, this book is so well written. Just a few pretentious lines are enough to make you want to stop reading."
Song Yang came back to his senses, looked up and saw that it was Chen Yansen, and introduced him enthusiastically.
In his previous life, Song Yang had also handed his mobile phone to Chen Yansen like this, insisting that he experience the charm of the Five Whites of the Central Plains.
But at that time, Chen Yansen was busy being a bootlicker and had no time to read online novels, so he naturally rejected Song Yang.
There is no need to talk about this life. No matter how exciting the book is, it can't compare to Mr. Chen's daily life. How can you feel excited if you don't have a sense of immersion?
"Not to become an immortal, but just to wait for your return in this mortal world."
"I am the Emperor of Heaven, I must kill all enemies in the world!"
"My son Wang Teng has the qualities of a great emperor!"
Song Yang chuckled and recited the classic lines from the novel.
Oh, it’s good to be young, both silly and immature!
Chen Yansen thought to himself, patted Song Yang on the shoulder, said nothing, and prepared to go to the second floor.
etc!
Chen Yansen suddenly remembered something and turned around to ask, "Say your last sentence again."
"My son Wang Teng has the qualities of an emperor!" Song Yang asked with a smile, "Isn't he very impressive?"
"Yangzi, thank you."
Some impression finally popped up from the depths of Chen Yansen's memory. The future general manager of Redmi and head of Xiaomi's marketing department was also called Wang Teng, and he seemed to be quite capable.
Since we can’t poach Li Wanqiang, let’s poach his successor.
He was about to go upstairs when he suddenly remembered that apart from knowing his name, he knew nothing about Wang Teng's resume. He also had no idea whether he had joined Xiaomi or where he worked.
"Forget it, let's leave it to the headhunters. With the name and the corresponding industry, they should be able to dig the person out."
After thinking it through, Chen Yansen went up to the second floor. When he passed by Cao Dahua's office, he saw him still sitting at the desk working on a report, so he knocked on the door.
"Come in! I haven't seen you for a few days and you seem to be a little strange to me."
Cao Dahua sat there without moving, smiling and joking.
"I'm afraid that when I walk in, I'll see you watching an educational film, which would be awkward for both of us."
Chen Yansen pushed the door open and walked in, sitting down. He shook the teapot, which was still half full of tea. He was not shy, so he poured himself a cup and took a sip.
"I heard from Zihao that you went to Yanjing to discuss cooperation with Xiaomi?"
After hearing what he said, Cao Dahua turned off the player and closed the computer without leaving a trace, then slowly started to talk.
"Well, Lei Yijun tricked me to come to Yanjing under the guise of investment, but I know that this trip is not in vain. I will bring two B2C platforms to the mall for rebates."
Chen Yansen put down his tea and spoke slowly.
"I guess he wants to make a mobile phone?" Cao Dahua picked up the teapot, poured himself a cup, took a sip, and asked with squinted eyes.
"Of course! These days, selling mobile phones is like running a money printing machine. After making money from the hardware, you can also make money from the software, killing two birds with one stone."
Chen Yansen responded with a chuckle. For him, the large number of jobs that the manufacturing industry can provide is what makes him most excited.
“Not only that! Once the brand is established, accessories such as chargers, earphones, phone cases, protective films, and even peripheral products with the brand name can become important profit points.”
Cao Dahua waved his hand and added.
"You actually know all this?" Chen Yansen was stunned, his face full of surprise.
"Fuck! What do you mean? I told you about my adventures in Deep City, and you didn't believe a word of it?"
Cao Dahua had a stern face, his defense slightly broken, and cursed in a low voice.
Chen Yansen smiled awkwardly. He was so busy drinking last time that he took Cao Dahua's words as nonsense. Of course, they went in one ear and out the other.
"I believe it! We are brothers, so we are no different. I thought you were working in the Internet industry, but I didn't expect you to know so much about the mobile phone industry." Chen Yansen laughed it off.
"Humph! When I started my business, you hadn't even graduated from elementary school."
Cao Dahua snorted and grumbled in dissatisfaction, then asked, "From what you said, you don't want to make mobile phones, do you? Let me tell you, the real industry is not like the Internet. The waters there are very deep."
"Last time I asked you what entrepreneurial projects you had done, you never told me. Tell me about it. Maybe I can summarize some useful experience from your failed experience."
Chen Yansen didn't care and asked curiously.
"Damn! When have I ever failed?" Cao Dahua turned sideways and stretched his head over. After hesitating for a moment, he whispered, "Well, then don't tell anyone! Okay 123, have you heard it?"
"Are you the founder of Hao123? I heard that seven years ago, Qiandu spent 12 million in cash and 40,000 Qiandu.com options to acquire it."
This time it was Chen Yansen's turn to be shocked. He never expected that Cao Dahua, the idle master, had such a brilliant side.
You should know that the stock price of Qiandu at that time was more than 100 US dollars per share, and 40,000 shares were equivalent to 28 million Huayuan. Including cash, Cao Dahua's net worth was at least more than 40 million.
But Lao Cao usually drives a Haval H6, which is quite low-key.
After hearing Chen Yansen's flattery, Cao Dahua couldn't help but blush, coughed twice and said, "I just asked you if you have heard of it. You didn't say I was the boss of Hao123."
"Hey, Lao Cao, please stop breathing so hard when you talk. I was thinking of giving you a meal tonight. You wouldn't be reluctant to spend the money for a meal, would you?"
Chen Yansen joked.
"The product I made at that time was called 991 Navigation. It was not as good as 123, but it was still well-known in the southeast region. Later, I sold it to Google. I didn't make much money, but it was enough for me to spend."
Cao Dahua looked very proud, his expression full of nostalgia.
991 navigation?
When Chen Yansen heard this, he thought it was some shady navigation website, but when he saw Cao Dahua's expression, he guessed that it was probably a shopping guide website that ranked second and sold a few million at most.
"I've heard of you for a long time, sorry! When I was in junior high school, I actually used this navigation website to find some study materials."
Chen Yansen said nonsense casually.
"Really? That's all in the past. Let's not talk about that. Let's talk about you. Do you really want to get involved in the mobile phone industry? Wouldn't it be great to make money easily by being a shopping guide e-commerce?"
Cao Dahua felt uneasy and quickly changed the subject, trying to persuade him earnestly.
In order to attract traffic and increase user stickiness, he had done a lot of fancy operations in website construction. Chen Yansen's words made him feel ashamed.
He thought to himself: No wonder this kid is so smart but only got into a second-tier university. It turns out he has been looking for "study materials" since junior high school.
"It's too easy. There's no point in making money. I just like to work hard." Chen Yansen said with a grin.
If he is forced to live an honest life, he might as well die early. There are only two words in Chen Yansen's dictionary: waste and money!
A man cannot be without money, but he cannot not spend money!
"If you say this to others, aren't you afraid of being put in a sack? You will be hated by others!"
Cao Dahua was amused by him and burst into laughter, pointing at Chen Yansen and cursing.
"I'm leaving first, so you don't have to hold it in and beat me up after get off work." Chen Yansen stood up, patted his butt and left.
"Young people just like to make trouble, just like I did when I was young." Looking at Chen Yansen's back, Cao Dahua shook his head and smiled. Then he turned on the computer and continued watching the unfinished video.
As soon as Chen Yansen walked into Room 206, Wang Zihao came over with a computer.
"Yesterday, the number of new customers exceeded 800,000, and the daily active users exceeded 1.75 million. But the consumption is running so fast that my heart can't take it anymore."
As Wang Zihao spoke, he gestured to Chen Yansen to look at the delivery data.
Chen Yansen took a quick glance and found that the CPM and CPA values were within the controllable range, and the sales volume exceeded 100,000 on the channel, which showed that the delivery team had put a lot of thought into the materials and plans.
“It seems that we can achieve the goal of 2 million daily active users without waiting until June.”
Chen Yansen withdrew his gaze and nodded with satisfaction.
His initial plan was to increase FoxTao's daily active users to 3 million and annual sales to over 10 billion, so that he could negotiate with investment institutions for a round B financing, or find a sucker to sell FoxTao off in a package.
Others may not know, but he knows clearly in his heart that after Ali and Yidong go public one after another and their stock prices stabilize, FoxTao will most likely be the first one to be targeted.
Who would allow a third-party external channel to grow? Chen Yansen would make the same choice.
“The interface with the telecommunications company is expected to be completed next week. The entrance will be placed in the user center, and the daily exposure will be over 1 million.” Wang Zihao continued to report.
"Just keep an eye on it. Tell me when you go online. You don't have to report every step."
Chen Yansen smiled faintly and instructed Wang Zihao.
"Okay, then I'll go back. I've sent your email the analysis of last week's delivery." Wang Zihao smiled and returned to his seat with his computer.
Chen Yansen leaned back, put his feet on the table, took out his mobile phone and started playing "Temple Run". Although he had played this game before, it was more than ten years ago.
But after playing for more than ten minutes, Chen Yansen put down his phone. With his current reaction and hand speed, when playing this game, his senses seemed to be slowed down ten times. He did not feel the original tense and exciting atmosphere at all, but felt bored to the extreme.
It seems that becoming stronger physically and mentally is not always a good thing.
Chen Yansen sighed inwardly.
He stayed in the Entrepreneurship Park until six o'clock, but 90% of the project team were still sitting at their workstations. After all, after get off work, they would receive 1.5 times the overtime pay, and no one felt that they were working for Chen Yansen for nothing.
In a company with rapidly improving performance and generous overtime pay, no one will feel miserable working in an entrepreneurial park.
Chen Yansen called Meng Xibo and Zhu Xiaopeng, and when they passed the first floor, he called Song Yang and Wang Zhengqiang. They walked out of the school. They had to get together once a month. Tang Zhenzhe had already ordered the dishes at Shuangqing Restaurant and was waiting for them to come over.
Along the way, the boys' topic always revolved around girls. Zhu Xiaopeng said that Zhe Ge failed to confess his love to Su Meiling and has been in a very low mood recently.
Song Yang scratched his head and said that a senior from the Fine Arts Department was pursuing him.
This immediately piqued everyone's interest, and they all asked about the senior sister's appearance, height, and most importantly, how far the relationship had developed.
"Vulgar!" Chen Yansen dragged Song Yang over, pointed at several people and cursed. As soon as he finished speaking, he asked with a sly smile: "Which base are you at?"
"Damn!" The others raised their middle fingers and looked down on him with a smile.
…
…
The next morning, Chen Yansen took his books and attended a professional class.
The teacher looked at the unfamiliar face and thought it was just someone from another department who came to take the class for free. He didn't pay much attention to it and had no idea that this person was Chen Yansen, whom he had never met before.
After lunch, Chen Yansen walked into Room 206. Seeing this, Xu Dan stepped forward to report: "Brother Sen, the headhunters recommended several candidates named Wang Teng. I think Wang Teng, who works at OPPO, best meets your requirements."
As he spoke, he handed over five or six resumes. The one at the top was Wang Teng, who graduated from Huazhong University of Science and Technology and joined OPPO in 2008 as a product manager.
Chen Yansen opened the second resume, and it was another person named Wang Teng.
Damn, why are there so many people named Wang Teng? They are all engaged in industries related to mobile phones.
Chen Yansen frowned, and for a moment, he was not sure which one he was looking for.
"You will have an initial interview first. For the technical interview, ask Director Cao to recommend a teacher in a related field. We will hire the one with the strongest ability."
Chen Yansen made the final decision.
