Chapter 54 Miss Lin
Chapter 54 Miss Lin
When withdrawing 30 million yuan in funds, Xu Shenxue had already mortgaged many fixed assets in Wecoo Electronics and Wecoo Industrial, and also withdrawn a considerable portion of cash flow from Wecoo Electronics.
Although he could draw more funds later, at best he could only take out another 20 or 30 million... He really couldn't come up with 200 million!
Now the financing has not been officially started, and the supply chain department and the marketing department are waiting for the money. Xu Shenxue has no choice but to once again withdraw 20 million yuan to inject into Zhiyun Technology.
By this calculation, Xu Shenxue has spent 50 million yuan in cash on this smartphone, but it has not yet reached the level of large-scale mass production. The best he can do is to do small-scale trial production.
Why are a large number of domestic mobile phone manufacturers, especially small and medium-sized manufacturers, unwilling to engage in the research and development of smart phones, but instead wait for Lianke's package solution?
Because the cost of research and development and even mass production of smartphones is too high now, manufacturers without certain strength cannot do it at all.
Xu Shenxue instructed Kong Weiquan:
"We need to spend this 20 million RMB sparingly. We need to reduce expenditures in all areas as much as possible. We need to ensure salaries, press conferences, and marketing expenses first!"
“At the same time, we will continue to maintain close contact with major investment funds and carry out preliminary communication!”
“Try to finalize the financing quickly after the press conference!”
It is possible to sustain the company relying solely on the little money he has, but the development speed is too slow. Xu Shenxue needs to race against time with other manufacturers to mass-produce and launch C1 as soon as possible, then gather funds and accumulate strength to prepare for the launch of the flagship phone in the fall.
Otherwise, if you miss this year's golden development time, you will be caught up in the smartphone melee next year.
Therefore, financing is necessary and needs to be finalized as soon as possible after the press conference.
As a senior executive in charge of the company's finances, especially in charge of financing affairs, Kong Weiquan naturally understood the importance of this matter and said immediately: "I have been keeping in close contact with major investment companies in terms of financing, and overall the situation is relatively good."
By the time Kong Weiquan left, it was already evening and many employees in the company had already left work. Xu Shenxue, who had been busy all day, simply packed up and got up to prepare to leave work.
Although he was very busy, he did not forget to meet a blind date as promised by Xu's mother today...
I have broken my promise several times in the past. Since I had agreed to it yesterday, I naturally cannot break it easily... Although Xu Shenxue has no plans to get married for the time being, especially not through blind dates.
But Xu's mother kept saying that he couldn't just ignore her forever, so he took the time to go and see her, just going through the motions as a way of giving an explanation to Xu's mother.
In the morning, Xu Shenxue had actually received a photo of the woman sent by Xu's mother via mobile phone. However, the photography and network transmission of mobile phones these days were not very good, and the photo was a bit blurry and not very clear. All that could be seen was that she was a young and good-looking girl.
But we have to wait and see it in person to know the details.
After leaving the office, Xu Shenxue took the management elevator downstairs, got in the car, and then went to the Chinese restaurant in the Yunhai Hotel.
It is the Spring Festival now, and Shenzhen is a city of immigrants. A large number of people went back to their hometowns to celebrate the New Year before the New Year. Although they are returning one after another now, not all of them have come back. At the same time, many companies have not officially started work.
Therefore, even though it is rush hour after get off work, there are not many vehicles on the road, and the car Xu Shenxue is riding in is running smoothly.
It didn’t take long to reach Yunhai Hotel, and after arriving at the hotel, we went straight to the Yunhai Western Restaurant on the high floor!
When he arrived at the restaurant, Xu Shenxue raised his wrist to check the time. It was now 6:20, and there were still ten minutes until the agreed time of 6:30.
After giving the number of the reserved window-side room, the reception staff quickly brought Xu Shenxue to the place.
After entering the private room, Xu Shenxue said, "I have a female friend coming over later, please help me keep an eye on her!"
The restaurant manager who led the way immediately said, "Don't worry, sir. We will have staff to greet you at the door and bring your friend here as soon as he arrives!"
After the restaurant manager left, Xu Shenxue sat on the sofa by the window and closed his eyes slightly! There were a lot of things to do today. I met with five or six groups of partners. In the afternoon, I contacted and met with many company managers. The talks lasted for two or three hours. I was a little tired.
I had only closed my eyes for three minutes when I heard a knock on the door. The door opened and the restaurant manager said, "Mr. Xu, your friend is here!"
Xu Shenxue opened his eyes and looked towards the door, only to see the restaurant manager leaning against the door. At the same time, a young woman with long wavy hair, wearing a yellow round-neck sleeveless dress with a medium-length beige jacket on the outside and holding a small cream-colored shoulder bag in her hand walked in.
Xu Shenxue also stood up at this time and looked carefully at the woman in front of him.
The woman was about 1.68 meters tall, and looked even taller because she was wearing high heels. Her facial features were delicate and three-dimensional, and her figure seemed slender, especially her waist with the belt on, but her chest was bulging.
Just by looking at her figure and appearance, he could tell that Xu's mother had not lied to him, this girl was indeed very beautiful.
Putting aside other things, it is not yet known whether the soul is interesting, but the appearance is excellent... at least among the current group of so-called rich second generations, it is not one in ten thousand, but it is likely one in a thousand.
Little-known fact: most of the so-called second-generation rich people in contemporary China, regardless of gender, actually have very ordinary looks.
Because their parents all became rich overnight, they haven't had time to carry out gene optimization that will last for several generations...
In such a big background, it is actually very difficult to find a top beauty among the rich second-generation girls.
No wonder Xu's mother kept urging him to go on a blind date to meet this girl...she is really beautiful.
At this time she also saw Xu Shenxue and gave him a faint smile.
Xu Shenxue also spoke at the right time: "Hello, Teacher Lin, please sit here!"
Lin Yaxian took off her coat and handed it to the waiter. She took two steps forward with a smile and responded, "Hello!"
After sitting down, the two of them didn't rush to talk about anything, but simply ordered dishes. After the restaurant manager left, Xu Shenxue spoke up, "My mother told me earlier that you were interning at the No. 5 Primary School. How do you feel about being a teacher? I heard that teachers are under a lot of pressure."
Lin Yaxian's voice was relatively light: "It's OK, the children are all very well behaved, and I teach painting, so there is no pressure, unlike those teachers who teach the main subjects who work so hard!"
With this topic in mind, the two of them slowly started chatting!
During the chat, he also learned that Lin Yaxian is three years younger than him. She is currently studying fine arts at a teachers' college. She is a senior this year and is in the internship period.
However, this is just an internship, and she has no plans to become a teacher in the future. However, she is very interested in painting and wants to continue painting and open a gallery.
During the whole conversation, Xu Shenxue felt that perhaps because she had not graduated yet, she still retained some of the innocence of a student. Also, because her family protected her well, she was still relatively simple... Well, not to say that she was stupid or ignorant, but that she didn't have too many little thoughts.
At least that’s what it appears to be!
I don't know if it was out of respect or real interest, but she took the initiative to ask a lot of questions about Xu Shenxue's company management. When she heard that Xu Shenxue might hold a new product launch conference in a few days, she took the initiative to ask if she could go and take a look then.
When hearing this, Xu Shenxue was actually a little hesitant... In his opinion, work is work and life is life, and they cannot be confused.
But since the other party took the initiative to ask, he couldn't refuse, so after a few seconds he said: "No problem, I'll contact you later!"
