Rebirth 2010: I add some points to be a boss

Chapter 81 The Tech Manager of the Future

"Mr. Xu, hello, I'm Zhang Nan, the person in charge of Tuxi APP, can I delay your time for 2 minutes?"

Xu Dong was interrupted when he was speaking, and he frowned. Following the direction of the voice, he saw a woman about 30 years old squeezing over.

It is not the first time Xu Dong has met an entrepreneur who used this method to sneak into the venue and attract angel investment.

"I'm very sorry, lady, if you are talking about financing, you can add the contact information of my assistant first, and we will make an appointment later."

Xu Dong smiled perfunctorily.

Chen Heyu frowned in thought, feeling that the person in front of him looked very familiar, with short hair and round face, he felt like he had seen him somewhere before.

"Mr. Xu, can I just hold you up for a minute and take a look at our products?"

Zhang Nan insisted that she knew the meaning of evasion in Xu Dong's words, if she missed this opportunity, she would miss it forever.

SUG Haina prefers to invest in new companies and new products, and she has no confidence in convincing investors if she changes to another venture capital institution.

"Mr. Chen, I'll excuse you for a while."

"Mr. Xu, if you don't mind, let's go together. I am also more interested in new products on the Internet track."

Chen Heyu has already remembered the identity of a woman. After the 80s, she is also the founder of a photo community, and her appearance is [-]% similar to that on Qiandu Encyclopedia.

He didn't expect that he would meet the future mother of Douyin, the strongest manager in the universe, and the most powerful partner behind Zhang Yiming in the exchange meeting he attended on a temporary basis.

"Then together."

Xu Dong didn't care. In the past few years, Internet companies have flourished, and only a few survived. Many entrepreneurs can't even figure out the profit model.

In the private room next to the conference hall.

Zhang Nan turned on the projector, first demonstrated the product functions, and then introduced the product prospects and profit methods.

Although the speech is fast, the words are very clear. After finishing the long speech in just 10 minutes, he looked forward to looking at Xu Dong, hoping that the expression just now would impress him.

Chen Heyu sneered in his heart, he was not interested in this product at all, now it is 2012, the penetration rate of smartphones is less than 40%, and the traffic charges are too high.

He uses a phone bill package of 128 yuan per month, 400MB of traffic, and 0.5 yuan per MB for the excess. The monthly living expenses of ordinary college students are not even 1000 yuan. How can he use the photo community?

At least we have to wait until 4G is popularized and traffic charges drop before we have the opportunity to make such products.

Zhang Nan's APP basically "borrowed" foreign Facebook and Yinsi in terms of functional modules and UI design, and there is no innovation.

Sure enough, Xu Dong shook his head and refused directly. SUG Haina is strong, but it is not a cat or a dog that can be exchanged for money with a PPT.

Seeing this, Zhang Nan felt depressed.

Chen Heyu lowered his head and whispered to Zhou Xiaoyu, his voice was very soft and did not attract the attention of others.

This kind of small episode of the exchange meeting was also staged in other private rooms. Some people were elated when they got the investment, while others left in despair.

Zhang Nan walked out of the hotel with a computer in his hand, only to feel that the sky was gloomy.

"Well, I can only think of other ways."

She sighed heavily, planning to take a trip to Shanghai tomorrow, maybe there is still a chance.

"Ms. Zhang, please stay."

At this time, Zhou Xiaoyu chased him out and handed him a business card.

"Shanhai Capital, Zhou Xiaoyu."

Zhang Nan's complexion turned from cloudy to sunny, he squeezed out a smile, and silently read the letter on the card.

"My boss is very interested in your project. Ms. Yuezhang has an in-depth chat. Do you have time?"

"Available and available."

Mountain darkly, vista.

Zhang Nan immediately agreed. The company's expenses have long been beyond its means, and the employees' wages for the next month have not yet been paid. She is of course willing to be affirmed by investors.

On the other end, Chen Heyu greeted Xu Dong and left early.

……

When Zhang Nan saw Chen Heyu again, he recognized him instantly.

Chen Heyu is also scrutinizing this "business woman", the woman who will create a powerful Douyin universe in the future. She looks round and round, her eyes are bright, and a trace of fatigue is looming.

"Mr. Chen, are you interested in Tuxi?"

Zhang Nan couldn't hold back, and took the lead in asking questions.

"This is a good product, but it's too advanced. Does Mr. Zhang know the current domestic traffic charges? And what is the percentage of monthly call charges to income?"

Chen Heyu did not answer directly, but asked two questions.

Zhang Nan thought about it, and reported a rough figure. After hearing this, Chen Heyu shook his head and said, "This is why Xu Dong is unwilling to invest in you."

"First, the current network speed and traffic charges cannot support the development of the photo community;"

"Second, the development of the Internet is still in the age of tools, and netizens prefer products that help them, rather than wasting money and time on ineffective sharing;"

In the future, the sharing economy will produce some phenomenal products, such as Douyin, Kuaishu and Little Green Book, but these are all based on mature technology and network environment.

Little Green Book, launched in August 2014;
Douyin, launched in September 2016;
Quick Ripe, launched in November 2012, but the real outbreak period was in 11.

"What does President Chen mean?"

Zhang Nan is a little confused, since you don't like my product, why do you invite me?How about walking the monkey?

"I want to hire Mr. Zhang as the company's professional manager, and the salary will be favorable, according to the top domestic level."

"The annual salary is one million, and the caravan is fully equipped."

Chen Heyu smiled and said unhurriedly.

Zhou Xiaoyu's eyes widened at the side, Mr. Chen's brain circuit was beyond his expectation, and Zhang Nan was also surprised.

"Mr. Chen, first of all thank you very much for your trust, but I still want to start my own business, so I'm sorry."

Zhang Nan smiled bitterly and refused without hesitation.

"Is there any condition you can mention, or talk about your concerns."

Chen Heyu continued.

There's no reason why Zhang Yiming can impress her, but he can't.

"I don't want to let down the friends who mainly started their business together, and I don't even want to give up this product halfway."

Zhang Nan thought for a moment, then said in a low voice.

"Then how about this, Shanhai fully acquires Tuxi APP, and you can lead the original team to join the new company."

Chen Heyu's plan is full of sincerity, and it can be said that it has given Tuxi a perfect ending. It is not so much the acquisition of Tuxi, but rather the acquisition of Zhang Nan himself.

"What about Tuxi? How to deal with it?"

Zhang Nan asked.

"Suspend development and version updates, and wait until next year when operators increase speed and reduce fees, then restart, and then it will be assigned to a new company for unified operation."

Chen Heyu replied, his words were sincere.

In 2012, it has been announced that 4G licenses will be issued next year, and the era of mobile is coming.

This is also the reason why he must win Zhang Nan. In terms of company management, Chen Heyu doesn't want to invest too much energy, grasp the big direction, and leave the rest to the manager.

Why bother to live again and continue to work hard?

"Thank you Mr. Chen for your appreciation. I will go back and communicate with the team about this plan, and I will reply to you within two days, is that okay?"

Zhang Nan was moved. After being rejected by more than a dozen VCs, she understood that it would be difficult to find a more generous funder than Shanhai Capital.

"No problem, contact Mr. Zhou at any time after you have a reply."

Chen Heyu pointed at Zhou Xiaoyu and smiled slightly. Judging from the other party's look and micro-expression, Zhang Nan had already agreed.

After Zhang Nan left, Zhou Xiaoyu asked.

"Mr. Chen, what is the name of the new company you mentioned?"

"Future-Tech Corporation, Future-Tech Corporation, I hope the company can make products beyond the times."

Chen Heyu stood up, and various concepts such as artificial intelligence, chips, battery technology, robots, and VR burst into his mind.
