Seeing Chu Yuanxi running away so quickly, Yuan Lu thought he had done something wrong. What's more excessive was that she hurriedly dealt with the matter at hand, thinking that she could catch up with it. How could she not participate in Xiaokang's financing? As a result, she didn't expect that in just a short while, she had not even finished the formalities and the greetings were over, but Li Jingfei had already left?

This is obviously a breakdown in the conversation, right?

In fact, Chu Yuanxi sent Li Jingfei away in a very simple way. There was no big fight or earth-shaking as expected, because he was not particularly enthusiastic.

Chu Yuanxi has experienced many financings, and has intuition about investment and financing. In this case, his intuition is that Sun Dasheng has never invested in a convenience store...

You should know that island countries are the originator of new convenience stores. There are currently many new convenience stores in the country. None of them, including Xiaokang, do not imitate island countries. The only thing they do is just copying, or copying selectively. It is rare to copy divergently like Xiaokang and copying their own things.

However, Sun Dasheng has been watching the great development of the convenience store industry in the island country for so many years, and has never invested. The only thing that is involved is Gopuff, a delivery service startup in the United States. So why did he suddenly want to invest in a well-off society? Don’t say that Dasheng is optimistic about local life and other nonsense! The rationality of this reason is no more than 10%, and the possibility is even lower.

If Sun Dasheng was the coal boss at the time, Chu Yuanxi would definitely have a much higher interest, but he was not. Then why he was in a good position and had to be a question that needs to be explained clearly.

Therefore, if Sun Dasheng is willing to meet and chat for five or ten minutes, Chu Yuanxi will definitely show a positive attitude. Not to mention whether it will succeed. Sun Dasheng's status is here, and it is unlikely to tell lies in person.

But since Sun Dasheng is unwilling to come forward, the 800 million yuan seems very strange. At present, the money is not small. As far as Chu Yuanxi knows, after wework was taken over by Sun Dasheng in October last year, his biggest investment was to lead the shells by 1.5 billion yuan, and common large-scale investments in the past became quite rare.

Therefore, 800 million yuan is definitely worth meeting Sun Dasheng himself, even if it is inconvenient for him.

Based on the above reasons, Chu Yuanxi felt that he was not very interested, and the value of Li Jingfei's meeting was not even as valuable as the morning when he was planning to have a call with Liang Kenian.

Not only did he propose to start the deployment of data centers immediately, but he also had other valuable judgments, such as focusing on the recovery of cyclical industries, etc. The reason why cyclical industries are called cyclical is that they will move up when the time comes, which means that the value of many assets needs to be revaluated.

For example, the raw materials of meltblown fabrics are currently important assets, with prices soaring more than ten times. Sinopec made a quick decision to build ten new production lines, and even if they don’t have enough demand.

When the country conveys its spirit at any time and then drives new and old infrastructure, a large number of cyclical industries will recover, which is also the original intention of letting go.

But the question before Chu Yuanxi is where the money from Xiaokang comes from? Data centers have a large expense, and a center can’t escape hundreds of millions. Even Bat has to invest in national science and technology, that is, apply for special funds, Penguin Qianzhou, Alibaba and Zhangbei, Baidu Jinling, etc.

But it is impossible for Xiaokang to apply at the first center, which is too arrogant. You must first achieve results and prove that you are in this industry. You have serious needs and can generate economic and social benefits. It will be much easier to apply later.

Moreover, national investment in science and technology is of political significance. Speaking people means money that must be spent. If you don’t apply for a well-off society, you will give it to others. So why bother? So if the deployment speed is fast, maybe the country will be able to keep up with the policy in the future.

It’s just that I think it’s really beautiful, and even if I have money, I can achieve it. The problem is that I don’t have money for the time being.

This is why I have been dragging on the issue before, because I haven’t raised funds yet. Why is financing? For the sake of using money later, the correct purpose is the fundamentals that financing behavior can be passed. Therefore, for Xiaokang, a reasonable growth rhythm is to first explain the purpose of financing, then start collecting money, then use the received money to cash out the previous plan, and finally start the next round of financing.

How smooth is this development pace?

The data center requires massive amounts of funds, which is one of the main purposes of the B round of financing. Now Chu Yuanxi’s easiest way is to borrow from Baren and process it according to the bridge loan. The interest is recorded in equity rather than cash, but the financing rhythm will be wrong. At that time, public financing will be raised, and people say that you have already obtained this money through debt financing. Why is it still in the equity financing plan? Is it with our money to repay the debt?

This is more difficult to answer positively. Although everyone understands the truth, it cannot be said. According to normal companies, owe money is of course a good thing. Correspondingly, it is not to pay back the money. Otherwise, why did Shenchuan start to build an e-commerce store by itself?

But the two evils are right, so let's borrow first...

For Chu Yuanxi, this operation is nothing more than a left hand to the right hand. In contrast, it requires a dedicated person to handle the deployment of the data center for a long time. The speed cannot be slow, and various expenses must be reduced. Fortunately, although the deployment has not been done, people have been recruiting for a long time and have been studying the plan, including site selection, procurement, local network conditions, and even decoration. They have already done what they should have done in the early stage, so the overall situation should be OK.

Therefore, when Chu Yuanxi decided to start the deployment, it was actually just about operating the account, plus sending an email. However, it took a lot of effort to start Mileage 5 because there were not many things that could be done.

This milestone is full of disasters and difficulties. Chu Yuanxi frowned every time he thinks about it, and his eyebrows have become sparse. He started to start from the resumption of work after the holiday. He could not hold it up by himself, so he had to force it.

However, according to the original plan, Mileage 5 has several major events in order. First, we will promote the expansion of stores in the two major cities of eastern Guangdong Province, that is, the process of replicating Mileage 4 of the well-off imperial capital, and start to place bicycles in large quantities. Then we will start the first step in starting the quality life plan, determining OEM and products. Finally, in the latter part of the milestone, we will take out a lurking version of the well-off social networking and prepare to relay with Mileage 6.

But now, it is not advisable to expand stores and bicycles. Although the riding data of entering shared bicycles has been recovered, you have to start laying the store first and circle the territory before you can invest. But the actual situation is that it is even difficult to recruit new clerks for training.

Xiaokang has now handed over to the community control application, which already contains some of the hidden versions of social functions, so it is not very meaningful to start promoting its own functions immediately, especially since there is no clear social interaction in this version, only functions with social attributes.

There is also the value of online goods, which are nothing more than commissioned operations such as paid delivery between users using health coins as equivalents, as well as second-hand goods transactions in the community. These have corresponding ways to play in the latent social networking, which plays the central role of leaving the store. For example, second-hand goods are directly delivered to the store by the seller through online stalls, and the buyer picks up by himself, etc., which can not only stimulate social interaction and stimulate currency circulation, but also cause direct contact. At present, it is definitely not open to the public and cannot be raised.

Therefore, we can only give priority to promoting quality life plans. In the future, quality life will be a large-scale plan covering many products and many skus, but everything is difficult at the beginning, so there will definitely be only a few models at the beginning.

The problem Chu Yuanxi has to worry about now is that since nothing else can be done, should quality life be accelerated? The original plan was to build this brand first, and then integrate the supply chain. Just like the three major snack e-commerce companies, they mainly rely on supply chain private labels to do OEM OEM, and finally to establish their own factory and production line to solve the self-sufficiency of some of the products.

In other words, the first step is to find OEM and monitor quality.

But if Chu Yuanxi had not had a shortage of people, he would have chosen to skip this step and build a factory directly. The reason is not that the factory is cheap and the asset price is low, but that it is difficult to sort out the supply chain and it is difficult to find OEMs. This is also one of the reasons why this milestone has been decisive.

What the OEM factory lacks is the resumption of work, and what Chu Yuanxi lacks is the expert in the food and beverage field. When he thinks of the experts, he thinks of Duan Luting, and then he sent a WeChat message: "Have you completed your transaction? When will Meiduo complete the integration of you?"

Duan Luting quickly replied: "It will take one month, right? I really don't care, but it's impossible for me to get my relatives away today after the acquisition."

At this time, Chu Yuanxi knew that Tianxian Pipe had been acquired for more than ten days, and it was a signing agreement with Xiaokang to resume work. Therefore, he said: "It is not necessarily true that if Alibaba comes to acquire it, you will be integrated in a week without having to do it. It can be seen that Meiduo is still not effective. Have you agreed to how long it takes to complete the integration by signing the merger and acquisition?"

Duan Luting didn't say anything for a long time, as if he was going to check the contract again. Chu Yuanxi thought, would you succeed? Shouldn't you remember this in your mind and read the calendar every day?

But it may also be negotiated by other people in his family. All the unreasonable aspects of the family business can be found, so there is nothing to say.

Thinking of this, Chu Yuanxi suddenly had an idea in his mind, should he meet with Mido's senior executives? Or should he wait patiently for the other party to complete the integration and then detect the leaks by himself?

Of course, Xiaokang does not completely count on this group of people. The opening of Mileage 5 means the opening of recruitment. The previous non-expansion is only temporary. Entering a new milestone will definitely lead to recruiting people. It is just that it is more difficult to carry out normal social recruitment at present.

If it is normal, it is easier for experts to find it because there are not many things to do in the early stage of a well-off society. The main focus of quality life is high-sugar people. This group not only has a high tolerance for prices, but also has a relatively alternative requirement. Health is the first priority, but the taste is not. The drink is just a little bit more delicious than white water, and the same is true for food. It does not need to be very delicious. It is a very good option to provide a little taste while ensuring health.

According to the rhythm of the original world, in the early stage, you only need to make the "cost-performance ratio" in the three categories of bread, yogurt and beverages, which is enough to make a hit. Unfortunately, it is because it is easy to find, so Chu Yuan Xiyuan World did not operate this link in person. Now I don’t know where those experts went and couldn’t recover.

Therefore, we still have to seek help from omnipotent investors to find suitable resources, and human resources are also resources. Chu Yuanxi, who had basically not distributed the equity of Baren at the beginning, was because there were not many places to ask for help. At first glance, Zheng De could live with milk, or tap the potential inside. Similarly, he rushed to spread out the A-round share of Xiaokang, because the structure of Xiaokang was much more complicated than that of Baren, and there were many places that needed milk. Zheng De alone could exhaust Yuan Jing to death.

For example, now, you can ask capital to help find talents, and you can also ask capital to help contact OEM. It is difficult to find ready-made OEMs, but you can still find half a share. OEMs are nothing more than a difficulty in resuming work and workers cannot come back. These problems are difficult to solve for OEMs, but it will be easier to help clear the OEMs. In this way, a well-off society will definitely have to pay more, but it is meaningful to the entire society.

At this moment, capital and enterprises are not just a relationship between money, but become nodes in the national economy together. Among them, the legs that hold many resources are naturally thicker, so they turn into strong support and help the country jointly support the national economy. Compared with the feudal era, it is called the people who are the foundation of the country, and the country who are the king. If there is the people, there will be a country, and if there is a country, there will be a king. Therefore, the way of the world lies in the stability of the country and the people.

In this process, both capital and enterprise are units of Dingguo Anmin. Cooperation with each other can match more needs and mobilize more power. Many combination punches that cannot be produced or do not need to be shot may appear.

Just like the Putian team switched to producing masks, the diaper factory has materials and the shoe factory has equipment. Both sides made a gesture and put together the production line.

In contrast, the demand for a well-off society seems to be difficult, and if you really put in a lot of effort, you can do it completely.

So Chu Yuanxi and Xu Xin raised new needs, and also proposed the idea of ​​having an appointment with Mido to meet and chat.

"Ah? What are you talking about with them?" Xu Xin was naturally extremely surprised. She would definitely be able to make an appointment. The question is that she couldn't guess whether Chu Yuanxi was selling her gourd.

"Just get to know each other and have a chat, what's wrong? What do you think I'm going to do?"

"That's fine." Xu Xin laughed, "I heard that Mido had considered a merger with Xiaokang before, and I thought you..."

"You have too rich Lenovo capabilities, right? If I really want to divide my luggage, wouldn't it be enough to just divide the money in the Baren account?"

Xu Xin thought about it, that's right. Chu Yuanxi had no reason to ride a motorcycle up the mountain to chop firewood. "Then let's make an appointment to meet me. Also, don't you want to organize an investor call? When?"

"After seeing the perfection," Chu Yuanxi said lightly. Since Xu Xin does not plan to be a nursery, the phone call will not have much to do with her, because she does not intend to pay. Now in this market, endorsement must be made in real money, and not doing anything will not produce any endorsement effect.

Xiaokang operated it in one go. In the afternoon, the launch of Mileage 5 and the deployment of the data center were all distributed in Chu Yuanxi's own okr. Instead, Baren squeezed something. Lu Yu rushed to report and said that the Internet Master of "The Unfaithful Lord" had a new choice. Of course, iQiyi is more powerful, and iQiyi gave a new option today, called "Suike".

"What's the matter?" Chu Yuanxi had never heard of it, and thought to himself how he got this name so strange? Is it the meaning of "So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So-So

As a result, Lu Yu said no, this is a medium- and long video project launched by iQiyi, which lasts about ten minutes. Short videos and long videos are already quite mature in China, but medium- and long videos do not have a fixed exploration environment. In other words, on the three major platforms and hodgepodge playback platforms such as Xigua, Sina, and Bilibili, of course, 10-minute videos can be uploaded, but there is no requirement that only 8 to 10-minute videos can be uploaded. This is a fixed "exploration" of this specific type, exploring commercial prospects.

Therefore, this function under test has begun to prepare for the ecosystem. The first step to prepare for the ecosystem is to set a benchmark and launch quality and popular products to create a money-making effect, thereby driving the emergence of submission users. This strategy is very familiar to everyone.

At this time, Baren reported the newly edited online outline and outline. It had not been uploaded yet and was in the communication stage. He originally wanted to determine the exposure position. However, when the other party heard it, he immediately lured Lu Yu to cut the film again. The original 90-minute online movie was cut into 8 to 10 continuous plot videos, and then the traffic was tilted and divided into large ones.

It should be said that this idea itself is fine, especially the advertising sharing model on iQiyi is quite mature. As long as you look at it, it is still OK to not have a three-minute advertisement for users with a ten-minute video. But Chu Yuanxi thought that this is the micro-film of the original time? It is a little shorter and more fixed. What is there to explore?

The real exploration should be to not follow the old model of advertising sharing and find new profit models. Just like the ugcs of Douyin and Kuaishou were not profitable at the beginning. With the increase in traffic, they gradually developed the Internet celebrity e-commerce model of short video sales and short video + live streaming sales. This is what exploration is.

Moreover, as a company leader, shouldn’t there be a fixed model for handling this kind of suggestion? Chu Yuanxi asked Lu Yu: “What about your opinion?”

"Me? I think it should be worth a try, right?" Lu Yu of course thought about what choice should be made and how to gain this dividend from iQiyi. The traffic tilt is a promise made by Mr. Gong. However, when it comes to the group's main IP, of course, Chu Yuanxi has to make the decision himself.
Chapter completed!
