My Return to Life

Vol 5 Chapter 678: Endless business, endless meetings

The drizzle gradually stopped, the ground was damp, but the body felt warm, quite a sticky and uncomfortable feeling.

I don’t know how the sun arranges attendance. The temperature was less than 20℃ when it was sunny and cloudy in the first two days.

There are showers today, but in the afternoon, the temperature is 26℃.

After eating a meal for more than two hours, I didn't even finish a 500ml bottle of wine.

On the porch of the private house, Fang Nian bid farewell to several big bosses, and then got in his low-key Tremella Audi.

The village chief started the car and left smoothly.

Fang Nian exhaled as the taillights flickered, feeling a lot more relaxed.

He muttered happily: "If there is nothing unexpected, I will be busy this month..."

The sudden ringing of the phone's ringtone interrupted Fang Nian's beautiful imagination.

He took out his phone and looked at the notes on the screen, Fang Nian's face froze.

After thinking about it, I swiped the screen to get the call, and then Fang Nian quickly said, "Ah, Mr. Lei, this is the wrong call, it doesn't matter, then I hang up first."

"Sorry Fang, I didn't bother you. A friend introduced a nice teahouse and had an afternoon tea together." Lei Jun's voice came from the receiver with a smile.

Fang Nian's eyes rolled around, and he agreed, "All right."

"..."

After finishing the call, Fang Nian murmured: "I am born to work hard."

Knowing that Lei Jun came to Shencheng one day in advance, it was definitely not too idle.

Not to mention how busy Xiaomi is with Qingchao, it is said that Lei Jun himself is a well-known ‘model worker’, how can such a loose time come in advance.

Compared with other companies in the Nuwa Alliance, Lei Jun has considerable expectations for the vision of the smartphone industry.

The reason why Fang Nian was able to persuade Lei Jun to engage in self-developed operating system so easily was that Lei Jun also had an idea in his heart.

It's just that Fang Nian has more than ten years of tricky user experience, and he took advantage of this advantage to completely hook the thoughts in Lei Jun's heart.

Fang Nian's "Hate iron but not steel" also shows from the side that this industry is promising.

On the basis of the success of Xiaomi 1, if Lei Jun doesn't strike while the iron is hot, what kind of business does he start?

What should I say or not, Fang Nian was also very curious about Lei Jun's silence yesterday afternoon, and insisted on keeping it until today.

In less than twenty minutes, Tremella Audi stopped in front of another small courtyard.

Unexpectedly, Lei Jun arrived earlier than Fang Nian.

Obviously the front and rear feet started from the same place.

"..."

They just met, and neither of them exchanged greetings.

Soon I sat in the teahouse.

There was a sudden flash of lightning and thunder outside, and the shower came just as it said.

Fang Nian said casually: "The weather for this thing is too changeable."

Lei Jun felt that Fang Nian's tone was intriguing for some reason, and quickly explained: "No wonder Fang, I am also a little helpless."

"Huh?" Fang Nian blinked.

Lei Jun: "..."

Now the thinking of those born in the 90s is too unreasonable and can't keep up!

Obviously, Fang Nian didn't mean anything special at all.

After taking a few sips with the tea cup, Lei Jun organized his thoughts and said in his spare time: "Mr Fang, there are a few things I want to talk to you."

After a short pause, Lei Jun is straight to the point: "Let's talk about it first, can you tell us what you think about the independent release of Nuwa 3.0?"

Facing Lei Jun’s serious eyes, Fang Nian shrugged and said nonchalantly: “Lei always cares too much. According to you, the frontier is a career, so it’s not wrong to say that, anyway, I am too lazy to be an Internet industry;

Nuwa is the basic operating system, no matter what angle of development, to the current stage, you need some other ways to go further;

It is a good choice to follow the example of an effective international developer conference. "

After a short pause, Fang Nian looked at Lei Jun: "What I have to say is that at least the Nuwa system is a basic technology product. I want to push it to lead the trend, so that it can bring greater market and profit."

"..."

Lei Jun was silent for a while, and smiled after a moment: "I understand what Fang said. In fact, it's the ideal home you mentioned before."

"Making money is one thing, and I still want to leave my mark under the torrent of this great era."

Fang Nian did not deny: "In my life for a hundred years, after I started to do finance, the money thing has been turned into a number by me. It should be a little interesting pursuit;

Of course my status and energy are destined. Any pursuit that is interesting to me can make it valuable. "

At the end, Fang Young smiled and said, "Mr. Lei, you may have forgotten that the Nuwa system is not my pursuit, I just follow the trend."

"Haha~" Lei Jun hurriedly said haha, "Yes, yes."

"..."

Then Lei Jun stopped mentioning Nuwa-related matters.

Getting to the point: "In the past month, I have received a lot of letters requesting investment."

"Fang always knows that I also played games when I was in Jinshan, so I also had some connections..."

"..."

It's really what Fang Nian guessed yesterday.

Lei Jun just wants to make a personal angel cast.

Not only that, but I also want to organically combine this part of the investment with the next game center.

In addition, I also want to promote the development of light chat.

Because the user base of light chat is about to exceed 100 million.

Secondly, Lei Jun is also seeking Fang Nian's opinion on how to decide the financing process.

There is also Shunwei Capital's investment in the domestic mobile phone industry chain and so on.

In a word, it's all endless business.

Fang Nian didn't answer the whole question either. He didn't say much about the organic combination of mobile games and light chat.

Just talk about Mr. Lei's own decision.

As for the financing process of light talk.

"Talking about the biggest burden now is server resources. If this part of the problem can be solved, I think it's okay to finance or not."

"Actually, I don't really want to simply sell Qingchao at a low price. It's also a money-making thing. Waiting for this thing will make a completely different result."

Facing Fang Nian's calmness, Lei Jun didn't say much, but accepted Fang Nian's plan.

After all, just a little bit of time, the valuation of light chat can easily exceed billions of dollars.

Now financing is not easy to get high valuations.

Neither P/S nor P/E valuation methods are suitable for light chatting, and a multiplier of value per user plan must be developed.

If there is another prototype of a good business model, this thing will be able to produce a 1 to 100 dollar show operation.

At least Fang Nian knows that some companies have played this kind of valuation method.

In fact, strictly speaking, the general valuation algorithm including WeChat for later generations is also of this type.

It is said that WeChat has supported the goose factory's market value of nearly 800 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Isn't it the volume of 100 billion US dollars?

It’s worth $100 per user.

Finally, Fang Nian didn't say much about the investment progress of Shunwei Capital in the domestic mobile phone industry chain.

Because Lei Jun mentioned this, it is only the exchange of information.

It's nothing more than Lei Jun is more curious about one thing: "Fang, in fact, these days I have been curious about what you mean by saying that Xiaomi will definitely make a lower-end series of smartphones?"

After a short pause, Lei Jun said frankly: "I'll speak straight.

Xiaomi’s internal long-term plan will impact the mid-to-high-end market after establishing its brand product strength..."

"We have conducted an in-depth analysis. It has only been four years since Jobs reinvented the mobile phone. The industry shuffle is a gradual blunt knife cut;

As Mr. Fang said, Nokia has fallen behind. If, I mean, if both Nokia and Motorola fall...

The global mobile phone industry will form a new pattern. The iPhone will occupy high-end series, and some brands will lose their high price competitiveness...

...

The price area converted into RMB 3000~4500 will become the new mid-to-high end, and there may be a vacuum for a period of time, and it is difficult to have strong enough brand products to occupy...

...

According to the estimation of the timeline, if Xiaomi can better control its products, it will be an opportunity for Xiaomi to hit the mid-to-high end. "

After listening to Lei Jun, Fang Nian was not too surprised.

He has never underestimated Lei Jun's strategic vision.

Although almost all business partners say that their strategic vision is a must.

But Fang Nian knew that he had a real vision of standing ten or even twenty years from now.

If they were at the same starting line, Fang Nian would not be able to see Lei Jun when he patted the horse.

In fact, Xiaomi's internal long-term evaluation is not very ideal, and it is quite realistic.

It's just that no one thought that the subsequent Xiaomi hit the mid-to-high end repeatedly and ended in failure, and even experienced a supply chain crisis.

Fang Nian thought for a while, and said mysteriously: "President Lei, I still said that. You will know it later. This does not conflict with what you said."

Fang Nian did not intend to disclose confidential information in this regard.

According to his speculation, Xiaomi will receive an explicit statement from above at most by the middle of this year.

Because the basic process has been changed.

Lei Jun looked at Fang Nian and frowned slightly, "It seems that Fang always is not optimistic about Xiaomi's long-term layout of hitting mid- to high-end?"

"It's not, but I think it... Xiaomi's talent echelon system is really hard to describe." Fang Nian stopped.

After Fang Nian's words fell, Lei Jun had a cold back almost instantly.

In the business system of human society, no matter what, it can ultimately be attributed to personnel.

Xiaomi's talent echelon system?

Xiaomi now has a ghostly talent echelon system.

Indeed, the co-founders are all excellent, senior practitioners in the industry, but what about others?

Other...

Talking lightly is really not a case that is too clear.

Fang Nian wouldn't tell Lei Jun that he couldn't finish the business, even though he thought that way after saying goodbye to Lei Jun again.

…………

…………

In the next few days, the entire mobile game market became more and more gimmicky.

Attracted all kinds of people influx.

Fang Nian is a bit staggering.

But this is also an inevitable process.

After all, Lei Jun often not only represents him personally, especially in the capital circle.

In addition, Shen Nier and others are not completely obedient people.

but……

Fang Nian just watched these things coldly.

He wanted to be lazy for a few days, but things couldn't stop.

On Sunday afternoon, Lu Weiyu replied.

Fang Nian immediately put the preparations for the Nuwa Developer Conference on the agenda, and he himself had to participate.

After all, it is the first serious appearance of Nuwa Lab in the world.

On Monday morning, the conference time was initially set.

Fang Nian must hurry up before Apple's annual developer conference.

As early as the end of last month, Apple announced this year's WWDC time: June 6th to June 10th.

It must be announced quickly.

There must be enough time.

In the end, Fang Nian went to the Nuwa laboratory again and talked with Professor Huang and others for half an hour.

After comprehensive consideration, the set time is May 22 to May 24.

After all, it is the first developer conference, and the heavy news is limited, and it cannot support the long conference week like WWDC.

The initial plan is to announce the news on April 20.

Ok……

That day happened to be the rain of the twenty-four solar terms.

"Some people, even the names are so tricky~ Such a heavyweight day, so lightly overlapped." Wen Ye's eyes were red with envy.

Gu Yu was so happy to fly.

Anyway...

On Monday this day, Fang Nian's feet were all worn off.

I wanted to rest.

Unexpectedly, there was another remote meeting on Tuesday morning.

Several people with Shen Nier.

Obviously the influence club base is in Shencheng, you can go directly to the World Financial Center.

But Neil Shen is very busy in Beijing.

Nothing was decided at this meeting, just a brief review of the recent period.

Probably just...

Fang always is awesome, Fang always is awesome.

Because the ‘story’ of mobile games can already be told.

This is not over yet...

This afternoon.

The summary report of Baize Lab's first overall analysis of tape-out was delivered to Fang Nian's desk.

It was obvious from Gu Yu's tone that the morale of a group of people in Baize Lab was very low.

Lu Weiyu was a little surprised. He didn't hold back and said, "Mr. Fang, your judgment is a bit too accurate."

"Yes, I know you want to call me crow's mouth. In fact, this is in line with the difficulty of basic technology development." Fang Nian was quite calm.

Lu Weiyu's thoughts are also normal.

Before it started, Fang Nian made a vow that he would fail.

It may even be completely ridden.

Although it was a private statement, it was still in the form of a crow's mouth.

This tapeout can be declared a complete failure, and the purpose of the tapeout is basically not achieved.

It can basically be said to light up the screen.

More parameters, performance indicators, too few reached ~www.ltnovel.com~ It is a bit embarrassing to say.

At the end, Fang Nian did not forget to say: "Otani, you can contact Baize Lab and call for a conference in ten minutes."

Ten minutes later, the conference call was established.

Fang Nian's calm voice was transmitted to Luzhou's Frontier Research Center via radio.

"Academician Chen, Professor Zhang, Manager Shen, hello, I am Fang Nian."

"I read the result report of the tape-out, and I didn't read the accompanying review report. In my opinion, this is not an error that needs to be reviewed;

The establishment of Baize Laboratory is short, the technology accumulation is not enough, and it is the latest technology process. It is normal for this to happen;

Chips belong to the field of basic technology, and the difficulty of development is inherently high, so there is no need for you to blame yourself;

I won’t talk about the more, I hope to see the second tape-out application submitted by you soon. "

Academician Chen quickly and earnestly said: "Please rest assured, Mr. Fang! We will face failures and sum up experience and lessons! We will live up to your trust in us!"

"..."

Fang Nian didn't give the few people on the other side of Baize Lab too much opportunity to speak.

Before ending the conference call, he said a few words quietly.

"I hope that even if I fail again next time, I don't need me to cheer you up!"

"You are engaged in basic technology research and development, and the chip is also known as the jewel in the crown of the electronic information industry;

Please be sure to maintain the confidence to move forward! "
