Chapter 1460: Chapter 552: Reaching a "Cooperation" with Qi Siyuan!
Zhang Jingdong playfully said, "Don’t worry, your man even has the likes of Ma Yun sorted out, let alone a Huang Xiuzhang!"
"If he’s willing to cooperate, I’ll take him along to make a fortune. If he’s unwilling, we’ll do it ourselves, and he’ll regret it eventually."
"Though his supply chain and sales channels are impressive, our group isn’t just for show."
"The key point is, his MP3 business won’t remain glamorous for long. If he doesn’t seek transformation, his hard-built Meizu Company will be entirely ruined."
Upon hearing this, Ye Jinyan’s eyes lit up. "Looks like you’ve made thorough preparations before coming. I thought you were partying every night, having forgotten everything!"
Zhang Jingdong laughed and shook his head, "You wrong your man too much. Though our apparel company and entertainment company are very profitable, they’re small industries that can only earn so much even with all effort."
"Thus, right now we must quickly create a few companies with truly gigantic market prospects, so our group can remain invincible in future market competition."
"Besides, you two, the dearest ones I love, are not by my side, so my interest in that regard has waned, leaving me to numb myself through indulging in work!"
Ye Jinyan shot him a sideways glance, "I can barely believe your first two sentences, but the last one, I don’t believe a single word."
"You’ve finally won Lin Shishi’s heart recently, and you almost bring her and Xiao Fei to the bar every day. You’re practically living in a world of debauchery, hardly sparing a thought for us staying up all night worrying for you!"
Zhang Jingdong suddenly took on the air of a victim, "I’m more wronged than Dou E! I admit I’ve been spending time with Lin Shishi lately and taking her and Xiao Fei to the bar every day, but I’m absolutely not drowning in debauchery with them; it’s purely for work."
"Xiao Fei has been scheduling numerous performances recently but hasn’t found a suitable dance partner. Meanwhile, Lin Shishi looked for a summer break job to gain experience, so Xiao Fei thought of making her the dance partner, and Shishi agreed."
"However, though Xiao Fei is skilled in dancing, she doesn’t know how to teach it, so I had to step in."
"And after teaching them, you can’t directly send them to commercial performances, right? So I took them to the bar stage to gain stage experience."
Ye Jinyan punched him on the shoulder, "Don’t give me that! Isn’t Teacher Shu professional? Why do you need to teach?"
"But Lin Shishi specifically wanted me to teach, what can I do? Besides, I’ve not neglected any serious business while teaching her dancing."
"Not only did I successfully integrate our apparel company and Qingyun Technology, but I also settled the project from the real estate company."
"Now I’ve come here to personally manage the mobile phone company. I haven’t been idle for a moment, so you’re truly mistaken about me!"
Seeing he hadn’t neglected serious business, coupled with the sense of reuniting after a short separation, Ye Jinyan wasn’t angry anymore.
"Hmph... alright, you’re wise to know what’s important at this stage."
Zhang Jingdong took the opportunity to say, "By the way, after your tour, what’s your view on our domestic mobile phone market?"
Ye Jinyan paused and replied, "Our domestic mobile phone market will definitely grow bigger, but those foreign phone companies are just too overwhelming. If we want to develop our own phone brand, it might be difficult!"
"They occupy absolute advantages in production, sales networks, pricing, and brand impact."
"And they completely won’t accept cooperation with us. I’ve reached out to influential figures, but even upon hearing our proposals, they don’t even want to negotiate."
Guan Le chimed in at this moment, "Moreover, if we want to truly create our own mobile phone brand, we not only have to think about making our product well but also figure out how to compete with them for market share."
"Though the market will keep expanding, that’s precisely why every giant wants to seize this huge market. There will surely be fierce competition."
"When creating the product, we must be fully prepared for this future market competition, or even if we establish our phone brand, it’ll be tough to grow strong."
Zhang Jingdong thought Guan Le made a valid point, affectionately tousling her hair.
The smart, wise, and gentle Zhejiang University beauty teacher instantly flushed red.
She looked stunningly beautiful at that moment.
Zhang Jingdong couldn’t resist kissing her again.
Ye Jinyan couldn’t stand it, "Hey... we’re analyzing serious matters here, are you even listening seriously?"
Zhang Jingdong immediately gave Ye Jinyan a strong kiss, which shut her up.
Zhang Jingdong then declared, "Let’s not talk about specifics now, let’s focus on the strategic level."
"Back then, we were surrounded by strong rivals in internet websites, but now Ali and Ebay’s battle has mostly decided the outcome, Qiandu has basically defeated Google, Tencent has beaten MSN and other foreign chat software in social networking."
"In terms of portal websites, Sina, NetEase, and Sohu have also dominated the entire market."
"All this indicates one thing: those foreign big companies are actually paper tigers. If we go all out and really challenge them, who knows who will win in the end."
"Moreover, Huaxia people believe in the advantages of timing, geography, and harmony. Firstly, the timing with our country’s economy rapidly rising, there’s plenty of hot money in the market. Our project is very promising and shouldn’t be hard to finance."
"Also, new mobile technology has emerged in the past two years, and we’re making new-type mobile phones, which forms our ’timing’ perfectly."
"Now, geography, this is competing in Huaxia’s market. I believe our country’s upper levels and the people hope for a native phone brand, plus we’re more knowledgeable about Huaxia’s situation, so we have an advantage in geography."
"Lastly, harmony, our group may be newly established but has stable cash flow and projects with great prospects like the apparel company and Renren Network, so everyone knows our company will keep progressing, and their cohesion is getting stronger, meaning we win in harmony too."
"From ancient times till now, when these three elements are met, there’s almost nothing that can’t be accomplished. So, we’ll definitely achieve great success with our endeavor this time!"
Ye Jinyan and Guan Le, seeing Zhang Jingdong’s confidence and logic in his speech, nodded in wholehearted agreement.
