Reborn multinational giant

Chapter 54 Financial Crisis (Updated on the Title of Book Friends "Five East")

"Didn’t you say that nobody does it? Nobody does it. I do it. Over the past few years, I have a good understanding of all products from pregnant women to babies and children, and I have been active in several groups of mothers. , I know the many problems that Bao Ma encountered. Before, our milk powder was bought from abroad. I also know a lot about Haitao. In addition, I am also a marketing director anyway. I am not just being an e-commerce company. Okay."

Fang Zhe originally thought that Brother Mosquito would directly deny his sister-in-law’s idea, but in reality, Zheng Siwen seemed to think about it seriously, and then asked: “As far as I know about e-commerce, it involves channel supply chains, warehousing, and logistics. There are a lot of things like the sales platform and customer service. If you really want to do it, you have to think about these things."

"Moreover" Zheng Siwen looked at the nanny who was eating and playing next to him.

"I took my parents over. They both retired and there is nothing wrong with them. They always said that they would help us with the children."

"Alright, eat first, and we'll talk about it after dinner." In Fang Zhe's face, many things were not easy to say, so Zheng Siwen didn't say it again.

Fang Zhe didn't know how the couple talked that night, but when Fang Zhe asked his sister-in-law Wang Nan the result the next morning, she said that your brother agreed.

Zheng Siwen went out early in the morning, saying that he had an appointment with someone, and asked Fang Zhe to get up and have a meal, and then meet with the client first. The set of procedures for registering a company, Fang Zhe, a rookie, doesn’t understand much Yes, so Zheng Siwen contacted a trusted third-party client to help with these matters a few days ago. Fang Zhe and Zheng Siwen only need to cooperate with the submission of materials and run away from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.

Of course, Fang Zhe and others have to worry about renting office space.

Fang Zhe sat on the sofa, taking care of his daughter and waiting for his sister-in-law’s breakfast, while wondering where they should rent an office. The morning news on TV caught Fang Zhe’s attention.

Lehman Brothers, one of the five largest US investment banks, filed for bankruptcy in court.

In Fang Zhe’s impression, the financial crisis triggered by the subprime mortgage crisis has attracted the attention of the world since today and spread to the world, although there were signs and signs as early as last year. , Bear Stearns, one of the five major investment banks, was also sold to *****), but until today, Lehman Brothers, one of the five major investment banks, filed for bankruptcy. Merrill Lynch sold itself to Bank of America. With Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley remaining, the world truly felt that this financial crisis had completely erupted.

Fang Zhe is just watching the current financial crisis broadcast on TV. Even if the stock prices of various companies in the United States are falling or something, he has no money to buy it, and his venture capital has not yet been obtained. Here, the other effects caused by the financial crisis, sorry, with Fang Zhe's short and ignorant look, he really doesn't know.

Because of this, Fang Zhe didn't pay attention to this news for a long time, and instead continued to ponder his own affairs.

Fang Zhe placed a map of Yenching in front of him. He wanted to rent office space, rent and traffic, for the time being. Choosing the location of the location must be prudent.

No matter which industry it is, it pays attention to the clustering effect. Internet companies are no exception. At the moment, the most famous place for Internet companies in Yanjing is the Wudaokou neighborhood of Zhongguancun where a bunch of companies such as Sina, Baidu, Sohu, etc., and other places are famous. It's not that big, like the neighborhood of Wangjing where many start-up Internet companies gather, and Suzhou Street, Qinghe where Xiaomi is located a few years later, and so on.

Looking around, Fang Zhe felt that he should find the place he was most familiar with in his previous life. Xierqi is the most suitable place. Although it is outside the fifth ring road, a bunch of big companies including Baidu and Sina will move over in a few years. If you want to recruit people, just go to the next door to dig the wall.

In terms of transportation, in addition to various bus lines, Metro Line 13 is also very close, and Changping Line will be opened in two years.In addition, this area is located outside the Fifth Ring Road. There is a specially approved Zhongguancun Software Park. The property cost is much cheaper than that in the city. There are big reasons why big companies like Baidu and Sina want to move out of the city. Is to reduce these costs.Moreover, the rent outside the Fifth Ring Road is also cheaper than in the city, which can also save a lot of expenses for employees.

If Fang Zhe wants to start a company, he will inevitably do it in the future. The property cost of tens of thousands of people is not a small expenditure. Instead of moving in the future, it is better to set it here now.

But the only bad thing here is that Zheng Siwen is too troublesome to go from home to the company, and it takes an hour to drive.Therefore, Fang Zhe also selected additional places near Wangjing, Qinghe, etc. Although these places are not as good as Xierqi, they are also good choices.

He is easy to handle by himself, so he can rent a house directly near the company. Zheng Siwen, although he is now renting a house, he can't let him move as soon as he started the company. This matter must be discussed with him.

After breakfast, Wang Nan sent her daughter to the kindergarten and went directly to the company. Although she also had the idea of ​​starting a business as a mother and child e-commerce company, it was obviously not a matter of a day or two to prepare a plan and find funds. It takes time to find a partner, and the help of their Baoma group before, Baoma who was affected by the Sanlu incident also needs her to deal with it.

On Fang Zhe’s side, he drove directly to the agency office mentioned by Zheng Siwen. According to the company registration process, the first step was to verify the name, that is, to confirm the company name, registered capital, shareholders and business scope and other basic information.

These Fang Zhe had some understanding, and discussed with Zheng Siwen in advance.

In terms of the company name, Fang Zhe originally planned to name it Zhongle, which was taken from the ancient poem "It's not as good as everyone's music". If you just start a game company, this name can be said to be very appropriate.

However, considering the core of the company in the future, it should be a globalized mobile IM product. Therefore, after discussing with Zheng Siwen, the name Huizhong is named Huizhong. "Zhong" means three people. One person will be the company's future including Fang Zhe. Talents, the two are the partners outside all the companies in the future, and the top third person is all the consumers and users who use the company’s products, and even the billions of people around the world. On the whole, the words also reflect the connection to the public. Meaning, coincides with the desire of IM products to connect the world.

In a word, it is to gather talents from all over the world and work together with our partners to benefit mankind and change the world.

Let alone whether it can be realized, at least in terms of ambition and vision, it is lofty and compelling enough.

In terms of registered capital and equity distribution, the total initial registered capital of the two is 5 million, he holds 70% of the shares, and Zheng Siwen holds 30% of the shares. As for the option shares reserved for the backbone employees of the company, wait until the company is registered. The two will then let them out in proportion.

Fang Zhe didn't think he had given Zheng Siwen too many shares. If it were not to ensure that he could still firmly control the company after financing, he would be willing to give up more shares.

Fang Zhe occasionally reads some online novels about rebirth articles on the Internet. Many protagonists wish they could own 100% of the equity. For their entrepreneurial partners, they would be given one or two percentage points as if they were charity. Even more nonsense. Large companies look for so-called professional managers.

In Fang Zhe’s view, these are like jokes. Let’s not talk about the partners who started their business with him. The shares are given less. People can’t do their best. They just talk about shares and responsibility, just like Zheng Siwen was in coffee at the time. Like what he said, one share represents one responsibility, so the company has a limited liability company.

Although Fang Zhe is confident that he has great confidence in starting a large company with the advantages of the reborn, it does not mean that Fang Zhe is willing to put all his energy into work or so-called career, family, and life. , Everything is Fang Zhe’s experience in exchange for his life.

Fang Zhe believes that for himself in the future, money is just a number, tens of billions or hundreds of billions, it makes no difference. Instead, he takes the time to accompany his parents for a meal and travel to the place he yearns for. That is what Fang Zhe expects. life.

Career is what I want, life is what I want, and Zheng Siwen is the person chosen by Fang Zhe to share his career responsibilities.

In his past and present lives in Yanjing, he has given himself a lot of help, and without knowing that he is a rebirth, he is willing to abandon the job with an annual salary of one million and follow himself to start a business. This trust allows Fang Zhe was particularly moved.Perhaps this is the fate of the two of them.
