Chapter 668: Chen Yansen: Why Mr. Chen? Call me Academician Chen! The starting point of the education group!
On August 6, Amazon China announced that its "Overseas Shopping" business would be launched soon, in an attempt to reverse the decline of its business in China. However, the market share of cross-border business has already been divided up by Pinbei International, Yaomao International and Yidong Global Shopping.
You can imagine how difficult it is to steal food from other people's bowls.
It is destined to be a last-ditch effort!
China's e-commerce landscape has been determined. Pinbei, Yaomao and Yidong divide the world into three parts, and the remaining comprehensive e-commerce and vertical e-commerce can only wait for death.
Shopping guide e-commerce can introduce third-party traffic to the platform and barely make a living.
Especially after Douyin and Kuaishou launched their e-commerce businesses, the original shopping guide e-commerce companies have transformed, either setting up studios to cultivate their own sales anchors, or cooperating with third-party MCN agencies to focus their business on the live broadcast track.
At the same time, after Kuaidi Dache and Didi Dache launched their private car services one after another, competition escalated again and the subsidy war re-emerged.
But this time, Baidu was clearly overwhelmed and seemed particularly stingy when investing in subsidies.
However, what Li Yanhong did not expect was that Qiandu received a penalty notice from the Municipal Supervision Association on the same day, fining Qiandu 26 million yuan on the grounds of unfair competition.
Li Yanhong quickly asked someone and found out that Cheng Weixing had resorted to underhanded tactics in order to save money.
The Yanjing Municipal Supervision Association did not protect Qiandu at all!
This shows that at the higher level, the importance of Senlian Capital has long surpassed Qiandu.
Li Yanhong was very angry, but there was nothing he could do.
Because he knew in his heart that with Qiandu's size, it would be difficult to shake the current Senlian Capital.
If Didi Chuxing wants to increase its market share, it can only work hard on the driver and passenger experience.
Want to spend money to grab land?
It depends on whether the relationships behind it can cover it up!
The subsidy war, which had just started for a few hours, was quickly stopped by the Market Supervision Association. This result disappointed passengers from all over the country who were full of expectations for a long time.
"Thank you, Mr. Wang."
Chen Yansen, who was far away in Luzhou, lay on the sofa, gently pinching a soft grape, and thanked Wang Guangtong on the other end of the phone.
In his opinion, if Qiandu wants to compete with Senlian Capital in cash flow, it must also consider its own weight!
If Boss Chen doesn't want to play, Li Yanhong has to withdraw his hand obediently.
If you have connections, you have to use them!
Putting aside the research and development progress of lithography machines, a single Zhulong G1051 five-axis CNC machine tool is enough to raise Senlian Capital's social status to several levels.
"Mr. Chen, you're welcome. Please remember to come to the Yanjing Internet Conference at the end of the month. In recognition of Xingyuan Technology's technological breakthroughs and patent contributions, the Big Fund has decided to donate 6 billion yuan in cash subsidies to Xingyuan Technology.
In addition, regarding next year's selection for academicians, you, Lin Nan, Liang Jinsong, and Zeng Jiwen have all been nominated."
Wang Guangtong said with a smile.
"Will it be just a nomination again?" Chen Yansen asked half-jokingly.
You know, last year Zeng Jiwen and two others won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, but they were not awarded the title of academician.
After all, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
Zeng Jiwen and his colleagues had no foundation or connections in the academic circle before, so it was not easy for them to get nominated. How could they actually get elected?
It's a dream!
There is not enough of the "cake" of academicians among hundreds of universities and research institutes across the country, so why should they be given it?
But this year is different.
Chen Yansen led the optical R&D team of Xingyuan Technology to overcome most of the technical obstacles of EUV lithography machines in one fell swoop. In addition, with the help of the Zhulong G1051 high-precision machine tool and the second-generation deep blue battery, the results were remarkable!
What's more, Han Jinheng has personally expressed his position and asked Hu Ruihui to inform the judges association.
Anyone who dares to mess around with this matter now is not giving face to the boss.
"It's a done deal." Wang Guangtong lowered his voice and revealed it directly to Chen Yansen.
"No problem, I'll definitely be there."
Chen Yansen didn't hesitate and agreed immediately.
He is not interested in the title of academician, but people like Lin Nan, Liang Jinsong and Zeng Jiwen need it.
Many times, compared to tangible benefits, intangible reputation is more attractive to people.
Meng Jie's cheeks were flushed red. She wanted to push away Chen Yansen's mischievous right hand, but she was worried that it would delay his work, so she raised her hand halfway in the air and then stopped.
It was not until Chen Yansen hung up the phone that Meng Jie quickly dodged back and then rolled her eyes at him, her watery eyes full of coquettishness.
Chen Yansen threw his phone away and picked up Mengjie with just one hand.
The other side.
After several days of negotiations, Ma Liyun and Zhang Jindong finally finalized the details of the cooperation.
Ali Baba will exchange 20% of Suning's equity for 24.3 billion yuan, becoming the second largest shareholder.
Suning subscribed to Alibaba's shares for 12 billion yuan, accounting for 1.1% of the total share capital.
Simply put, it is cross-holding and deep capital binding.
However, the letter of intent has indeed been signed, but Ali does not have sufficient funds at the moment, so the fulfillment of the formal contract and the settlement of funds will have to wait until Ali goes public.
As soon as the news came out, it caused a shock in the entire e-commerce circle.
"Ali and Suning vs. Pinbei and Dongfang?"
"Huang Zheng is indeed quite capable. He actually managed to defeat Ahri and Suning by teaming up."
"After all, he is Duan Yongping's direct disciple, so his abilities are beyond reproach."
"To be honest, I haven't opened Yaomao and Taobao for a long time. It's more convenient to go to Pinbei to buy things. There are order entrances on WeChat, Douyin and Kuaishou."
Netizens were talking about it a lot, but only a few people really thought highly of Ali.
There is no way around this, mainly because Pinbei’s development speed is too fast.
In addition, with the backing of Senlian Capital, it naturally gives users a greater sense of trust.
In addition, another major reason why Pinbei is widely praised is that the platform rules are extremely fair. Among the three major e-commerce platforms, it has the best balance.
If a merchant sells counterfeit goods, Pinbei will impose severe fines to resolutely protect the interests of users.
If the buyer maliciously requests a refund or threatens the merchant with bad reviews, Pinbei will have zero tolerance. The first time will be a warning, and the second time will be a permanent ban. Even if you complain to the Municipal Supervision Association, it will be useless.
Therefore, as long as merchants operate diligently, they can make money on Pinbei.
Conversely, the same applies to buyers. While safeguarding the interests of users, Pinbei also pays great attention to the rights and interests of merchants.
But under Ahri's system, the taste has changed.
Yaomao merchants who have paid money are protected by their own platforms and often harm the rights of buyers; while Taobao merchants who have not paid money will encounter a group of weird customers all day long, and are either threatened with bad reviews or maliciously reported and complained.
Over time, both merchant and buyer resources have unknowingly flowed to Pinbei.
…
…
The next morning, Chen Yansen flew to Shanghai.
At the same time.
The entrance of a kindergarten in Chuansha is crowded with people, at least a hundred of them, most of whom are reporters from mainstream domestic media.
A staff member of the National Daily yawned.
"Brother Li, did you not sleep well last night?" the cameraman asked casually.
"Don't even mention it! I was busy working on the manuscript until the early morning, and at daybreak I got a call from the editor-in-chief, assigning me another outside source job."
Brother Li patted his cheeks, trying to sober himself up.
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but complain: "Who would have thought that Senlian Capital first opened a nursery, and not long after, they started doing kindergarten business."
"Brother Li, I have a friend who sent his daughter to Orange Nursery. I heard that full-time care costs 2,000 yuan a month, but it includes three meals a day.
I've seen the photos he took, and honestly, the food there is ridiculously good. Every meal includes two meat dishes, one vegetable dish, and a soup, plus fruit, yogurt, or milk. After deducting rent, labor, and operating costs, I'm afraid he doesn't even make 100 yuan. What do you think Chen Yansen is after?
The cameraman asked in amazement.
Among the wealthy circle and entrepreneurs, Chen Yansen is undoubtedly the most unique one.
First, there is no need for outsourcing; all employees are regular employees, with social security contributions and basic salaries.
Second, he does all kinds of business, including making chips, running canteens, and even a pig farm some time ago.
If it were someone else, they would probably be criticized as the typical example of "not doing their job properly".
But Chen Yansen becomes popular in every field he does!
Mixue Ice City, Kuaipao Canteen, Orange Supermarket and Lucky Coffee, which were not optimistic before, are now doing a booming business.
"Maybe he's doing charity? It's just that his method is different."
Brother Li thought for a moment and said.
In his eyes, projects such as Yunsu Express, Kuapao Takeout and Kuapao Canteen are not profitable at all.
After a year, I'm afraid there won't even be a profit of 5 points.
The only use is that it supports hundreds of thousands of employees.
Logically speaking, as long as Chen Yansen is willing to reduce costs and increase efficiency, he can definitely make a lot of money from Yunsu Express, Kuapao Takeout and Kuapao Canteen, but he distributed most of the profits to ordinary employees.
"That's it! I heard Orange Construction bought several plots of residential land in Tangzhen, Huajing, and other areas, planning to build welfare housing for their employees. Although it costs money to buy them, it's only 60% of the market price. It makes me want to change jobs."
The cameraman said sourly.
"This man is like a saint." Brother Li gave his evaluation after thinking for a while.
2014 was an era of economic boom and everyone was looking forward.
There are advocates of the 996 wolf culture everywhere. Chen Yansen is the only entrepreneur in the country who promotes the "four days on and three days off" and "six-hour" working system.
"It would be great if every boss could be like Brother Sen." The cameraman sighed.
"No one else has Brother Sen's ability! Look at companies like Pinbei, Deep Blue Technology, and Orange Technology. They're like money-printing machines. Even if the other projects don't make a penny, Senlian Capital can still handle it."
Brother Li chuckled and quietly changed the way he addressed Chen Yansen to "Brother Sen".
At this time, a Mercedes-Benz slowly drove over.
Brother Li leaned out to take a look, then retracted his foot. This car only cost a few hundred thousand, who could be such a big shot in it?
Yao Zhen parked the car, then pushed open the door and walked out.
She was originally the deputy principal of Pudong No. 2 Kindergarten. At the invitation of Orange Education Group, she became one of the first principals of Orange Kindergarten.
"Director, I don't know where these reporters got the news, but they're convinced that the big boss will be attending the opening ceremony today."
As soon as Deputy Director Zheng Tao saw Yao Zhen, he quickly squeezed out and ran to Yao Zhen and spoke simultaneously.
The first batch of 13 planned campuses of Orange Kindergarten are distributed in various major areas of Shanghai. Without exception, these campuses were acquired through acquisitions.
“It’s actually a good thing that journalists are willing to report.
On the one hand, the number of Orange Kindergartens will continue to increase; on the other hand, we cannot rely solely on the children of our employees to fill the enrollment gap; we must recruit students from the public.”
Yao Zhen waved his hand and said indifferently.
Zheng Tao agreed. The group's positioning of Orange Kindergarten is mainly for the children of employees, and it is not a completely closed internal campus.
As he was speaking, there was a sudden commotion in the crowd.
A black Maybach, escorted by two Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicles, drove steadily towards the kindergarten and finally stopped steadily at the kindergarten gate.
Chen Yansen glanced out the car window and did not rush to get out. He did not push open the car door and walked down until the security personnel were divided into two rows and stood guard outside the door.
In an instant, the sound of camera shutters kept ringing.
Chen Yansen looked at his watch. It was nine forty-seven.
"Boss!" Seeing this, Yao Zhen and Zheng Tao hurried forward to greet him.
Chen Yansen paused, nodded slightly, and asked Yao Zhen, "With more than 20 days left before school starts, can we enroll the full 300 students?"
"Boss, preliminary statistics show that there are about 60 children of employees from Yunsu, Kuaipao, Kuaipao Canteen, Mixue, and Lucky Coffee. The remaining students will need to be recruited through external enrollment."
Yao Zhen answered truthfully.
There are 240 gaps!
"Can you do it?" Chen Yansen asked again.
"Boss, it's no problem." Yao Zhen assured confidently.
Although Orange Kindergarten is not large in scale, its teaching team is very comprehensive, covering multiple dimensions including teaching, management, logistics, and health care.
Among them, the head teacher will carefully design curriculum activities in the five major areas of language, science, art, health, and society based on the "Guidelines for Learning and Development of Children Aged 3-6".
The assistant teacher is responsible for preparing teaching aids, organizing group activities, and cooperating with the childcare staff to take care of the children's daily life such as meals, naps, and toileting.
A nursery teacher, also known as a life teacher, is mainly responsible for work related to children's diet, such as distributing meals and observing eating habits. He is also responsible for the children's nap management and personal hygiene care.
In addition, the kindergarten is also equipped with art teachers, music teachers, dance teachers, as well as canteen staff, cleaners and other positions, with detailed and comprehensive division of labor.
She knew very well that the Orange Kindergarten's affordable pricing showed that the owner had no intention of making money from it.
Is it possible that a kindergarten with good teaching, a complete team and guaranteed food quality cannot recruit students in Shanghai?
Seeing that Yao Zhen was full of confidence, Chen Yansen nodded with satisfaction.
"Mr. Chen, may I ask why you want to get involved in the preschool education industry?"
A reporter from Tomato TV asked loudly, holding up the microphone.
Chen Yansen turned around slowly and smiled.
Even good wine needs no bush. Didn’t he come to Shanghai just to create momentum?
