Chapter 470: Tegra 3 chip buyers! 7.3 million in three months, 1.24 billion in revenue!
On August 23, one week before Xuyuan opened, the gymnasium was packed with people and reporters from local and Luzhou media rushed over.
Frankly speaking, 300 million yuan plus 3,000 air conditioners are nothing for a key university, but for a second-tier college like Xuyuan, it is a very generous donation.
Especially since the donor is Chen Yansen, the founder of Senlian Capital, he brings his own topics and popularity, which is also the main reason why reporters are so active.
Tang Qingshan, who was sitting in the first row, looked at his watch from time to time, feeling worried that Chen Yansen had forgotten about the donation ceremony.
Just when he was getting anxious and wanted to call Chen Yansen, a teacher trotted over to the door and whispered, "Principal, student Chen is here. The car just passed Xuelin Road and will be there after turning a corner."
He did this not entirely because of the 300 million.
In addition to cash donations, Chen Yansen's greatest help to the Institute of Virtual University is: solving the employment problems of a large number of graduates, inviting senior engineers from the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory and Tiangong Technology to occasionally come to the school to give open classes to help students increase their knowledge and broaden their horizons.
Moreover, Senlian Capital's influence on the upper echelons is getting stronger and stronger. As far as he knows, a list of entrepreneurs for the Yanjing Double Conference in March next year has been drawn up, and Chen Yansen is on the list.
At the same time, overseas media are reporting that Chen Yansen is very likely to be on the 2013 Forbes Global Rich List - the top of the list!
Tang Qingshan walked out with big strides, smiling.
Investing in Chen Yansen was the best decision he had ever made in his life!
Even if Chen Yansen did not donate money, the title of being the alma mater of the world's richest man alone would make Xuyuan famous both at home and abroad.
As soon as Tang Qingshan walked to the door, he ran into Chen Yansen who was walking towards him, followed by a security guard.
"Student Chen, welcome, welcome!" Tang Qingshan quickened his pace, held Chen Yansen's hand, and said with a smile.
"Teacher Tang, I'm just returning home. It would be too polite to say welcome." Chen Yansen joked with a smile.
The reporters nearby quickly raised their cameras and pressed the shutter buttons frantically.
"Yes, yes, yes! It's time to talk about going home! Mr. Xu is here too, as are representatives from the Education Association and the Hui'an Chamber of Commerce."
Tang Qingshan pulled Chen Yansen and walked inside while reminding him in a low voice.
Chen Yansen nodded slightly and walked into the gymnasium with Tang Qingshan.
A bright red eye-catching banner was hung in the middle: The 300 million donation demonstrates the responsibility of alumni, and Xu College is heading towards a glorious new journey!
The deans of more than a dozen departments in Xu Academy sat side by side, and none of them was absent.
There were two empty seats on the left side of Xu Zhenhui. It was obvious that Tang Qingshan arranged his and Chen Yansen's seats next to Xu Zhenhui.
Before Chen Yansen sat down, a group of reporters surrounded him, holding up the microphone and began to ask: "Mr. Chen, this donation is your first charity event, and the recipient is your alma mater. What was your original intention?"
It’s tax deductible, of course!
Chen Yansen answered without thinking.
But some things can only be done and not said. He smiled and responded, "On the one hand, I want to provide a better learning environment for my juniors. On the other hand, Xuyuan is cold in winter and hot in summer. Installing air conditioners can also improve everyone's living conditions."
In his previous life, Xuyuan did not start the air conditioning installation plan until the day before Chen Yansen graduated from university. At that time, he warmly greeted Tang Qingshan's family.
What's the meaning?
I went to college for four years without installing an air conditioner, and now I’ve just graduated and you’ve installed one?
So this time, with the promotion of Chen Yansen, students from grade 10 to grade 13 can all use air conditioning in advance.
Otherwise, when summer comes, relying on a small fan will be of no use at all.
Because the dormitory is designed with a bed above and a desk below, a desktop fan with stronger wind power cannot be used, so only a small fan can be used.
When I woke up, the mat was covered with sticky sweat.
When Chen Yansen thought back now, he only remembered that those days were hard and the principal deserved to die.
"Will you increase the frequency of your participation in public welfare and charity activities in the future?" the reporter asked again.
“I will participate, but not too frequently. I prefer to provide generous treatment to employees and make the people of Senlian Capital rich first, rather than spending money indiscriminately.” Chen Yansen gave a different answer.
The implication is that if even your own employees are having difficulty living and have low incomes, but you still use the money to donate to charity, wouldn’t that be a joke?
The reporter who asked the question was a staff member of "First Time". He did not expect Chen Yansen to say this and was stunned for a moment.
Chen Yansen ignored him and walked through the media crowd with Tang Qingshan and sat down in the first row.
Seeing the protagonists in place, a broadcasting and hosting teacher from the Conservatory of Music walked onto the stage leisurely and spoke with great emotion: "Today, we gather here to witness a special inheritance! Mr. Chen Yansen, an outstanding student of Xucheng College and founder of Senlian Capital, will donate 200 million research funds, 100 million subsidies and scholarships for poor students, and 3,000 Orange air conditioners to our school.
This is not only a donation, but also a belief relay of "those who are illuminated can also become light". Let us give a warm round of applause to thank Chen Yansen for his support to Xucheng College!"
Afterwards, the teacher introduced the important guests present one by one.
A new media teacher from the School of Communication and Journalism mounted an Orange C3S on a stand and started a live broadcast.
Many freshmen who are about to report have found the entrance to the live broadcast room on Douyin.
"air conditioner?"
"Three hundred million!"
"Chen Yansen!"
This group of prospective college students immediately left messages on the barrage with excited expressions.
"Thank you, Senior Chen!"
"That's awesome! There aren't many university dormitories in Hui'an that have air conditioners. I heard that only the dormitories at Luzhou University of Science and Technology have air conditioners installed. I didn't expect that Xuyuan has also caught up!"
"I was thinking of dropping out and repeating a year, but since they've even arranged for air conditioning, forget it!"
"Compared to air conditioning and scholarships, I would rather join my senior's company after graduation! The five social insurances and one housing fund, overtime pay, and quarterly bonuses are all there. It is said that there are so many fruits, snacks, and cold drinks in the tea room that you can't finish them all."
"This is a greedy item, identification completed!"
"I wonder if you would mind having another girlfriend, Senior?"
Most of the people in the live broadcast room are students from Xuyuan, mostly sophomores and juniors.
Freshmen asked about the environment of the college, which restaurant near the school gate is the best, what time the library opens, when the military training starts, and other questions.
A group of seniors who had been single for two or three years, as soon as they saw a girl with a cute profile picture, they took the initiative to follow her Douyin account and played the role of enthusiastic seniors.
Not long after, the news about Chen Yansen's donation to his alma mater became a hot topic.
After learning about the live broadcast, millions of netizens flocked into the live broadcast room.
Chen Yansen stood on the stage and handed a symbolic check to Tang Qingshan, who took it solemnly.
It says '300000000' yuan on the front!
There are eight full zeros, which is dazzling.
"Senior Chen has not even graduated yet, but he has already donated money and air conditioners to the school. His ability to make money is incredible!"
"It's just 300 million. Considering Chen Yansen's wealth, donating 3 billion is not too much."
"Hiss! The person above is so arrogant! V me at fifty to see my strength."
From the perspective of freshmen, scholarships, subsidies for poor students and air conditioning all touch their hearts.
Senior Chen has actually been to school and is well aware of the difficulties faced by college students.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Yansen and Tang Qingshan gave speeches in turn. After taking a group photo with Xu Zhenhui and others, they left Xuyuan with a commemorative certificate.
The news about Chen Yansen giving back to his alma mater instantly set the Internet on fire and occupied the headlines of major portals.
Unlike other entrepreneurs, Chen Yansen debuted early and made money quickly, so the number of fans he has at home and abroad is no less than that of first-tier stars.
Netizens all say that Chen Ou of Jumei is the entrepreneur who imitates Chen Yansen the most, but compared with Chen Yansen, Chen Ou’s popularity is still more than a dozen Zhou Hongyis away.
The other side.
After returning to the office, Chen Yansen first made a cup of tea, then turned on his computer to check today's work emails, replying to those that needed to be replied to and approving those that needed to be approved.
These tasks don’t take too much time and can be completed in just a dozen minutes.
At around 3:00 p.m., Zhou Hongyi sent me the technical documentation for 360 F1 Mini.
Compared with 360 F1, the screen, memory and camera have all been reduced to a certain extent, and the processor has also been changed from MediaTek to Nvidia's Tegra 3 chip.
The price is only 599 yuan, which is the same as Qingcheng D2 SE.
For each 360 F1 Mini, not counting the OEM fee, Chen Yansen can earn 47.4 yuan just from the hardware price difference.
In addition, the 360 F1 Mini only has the Aurora Future OS version.
Chen Yansen naturally had no objection to this as it could both make money and increase the market share of Aurora Future Systems.
He knew that Zhou Hongyi wanted to use 360 F1 Mini to compete with Redmi 1 for the market, but he didn't care. After all, the more fiercely Zhou Hongyi and Lei Yijun fought, the more Orange Technology would earn.
The domestic smartphone market is huge. Although the Orange series has a good-looking appearance and a high cost-effectiveness, there will always be people who don’t like it.
Instead of giving this part of the market to other brands, it is better to give it to 360 and Xiaomi.
Chen Yansen clicked on the attachment and took a casual look at it. The industrial design was similar to that of 360 F1, with basically no thought put into it and it looked very perfunctory.
But its advantages are also outstanding, and it only costs 599 yuan!
Including the Meitu 1S, it is expected that before October, there will be two mobile phones equipped with Nvidia's clearance chips.
One sells for 599 yuan and the other sells for 2199 yuan.
It has to be said that smartphone users in 2013 sometimes pay a lot of attention to price/performance ratio, and sometimes don’t care at all.
The 360 F1 Mini is destined to be a successful product, and the Meitu 1S is also a very profitable model.
As a contract manufacturer, Chen Yansen is well aware that the net profit of a Meitu 1S is definitely not less than 800 yuan.
Therefore, even though the sales volume of Meitu phones is not as high as that of 360, the gross profit of one phone is equivalent to that of more than ten 360 phones.
At the same time.
Due to the hot sales of Orange E1 electric fans, 7.3 million units were sold in three months, with revenue of 1.24 billion yuan. The Orange Electric Appliance Factory in Haizhou has tripled the number of employees and production lines after capacity expansion, but it still cannot keep up with sales.
Therefore, 70% of the orders were given to Konka and Royalstar for OEM.
But we can't always rely on OEM factories, so at the instruction of Chen Yansen, the Orange Electric Factory communicated with the local central company and bought a large industrial park in the surrounding area, preparing to continue to increase production capacity.
With only three models, Orange electric fans have leapt into the first echelon of the industry, with sales second only to Midea, Gree, and Airmate, successfully surpassing veteran electrical appliance brands such as Pioneer, Watson, Camel, and Audio-Technica.
In the evening of the same day, the Orange E1 electric fan appeared in Pinbei's "Back to School New Product Season" event. With the support of traffic, the daily sales of Orange E1 (AC motor version), Orange E1 (DC frequency conversion version) and Orange E1 (voice intelligent version) once again exceeded 100,000!
