Chapter 310 Assistants Who Are Not Worthy of Their Titles
March wind, March rain.
After Naixue’s first quarter summary meeting, He Maosong stayed and had a quick meal with Luo Yang.
“Why is it at the end of the month?”
Logically speaking, this meeting should be held in early April. Other tasks are easy to handle, but sales statistics must be counted up to March 3st.
"I'm going to the capital at the beginning of the month."
Luo Yang smiled and said, "There's something going on over there with the crew, let's go take a look."
"Love Is Not Blind" has been filming in the capital for nearly a month, and Luo Yang's excuse is understandable.
An Ying sat aside without saying a word, busy helping Luo Yang serve chicken soup.
"Oh, what a coincidence, I'm also going to the capital at the beginning of next month."
He Maosong then asked, "When are you leaving?"
"It will be like tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
Luo Yang turned to look at An Ying: "Which date is the flight?"
"Number 2."
Assistant An replied calmly, "Are you planning to change your flight ticket to make room for Mr. He?"
In fact, she hasn't made a reservation yet.
"Then change your ticket to number 3. I'll go there on the 3rd."
He Maosong smiled and said, "I'm going to attend an investor conference. If you have nothing to do, you can go for a walk with me."
"Investor Conference?"
Luo Yang was curious: "What's the content?"
"It's a drinking party where people in the circle share what they have."
He Maosong said nonchalantly, "The capital has some relatively rich resources, and policy news is first-hand. Especially those in our financial circle are most sensitive to the immediacy of news, so the insiders in the capital from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai organized such an investor conference."
"I thought it was a cocktail party like those in the film and television circles, a platform specifically set up for corporate financing."
“Hahaha, it’s a bit similar, but also a bit different.”
He Maosong laughed and said easily: "Corporate financing is easy and difficult at the same time!"
"What did you say?"
Luo Yang is still very willing to listen and learn about this knowledge.
"Investing in enterprises and investing in movies and TV shows are similar. For example, they look at reputation. If Zhang Yimou says he wants to make a commercial blockbuster, with his fame, he won't have to worry about the funding. Similarly, many famous and capable people in the industry have no shortage of funding when they start their own businesses."
He Maosong was also willing to explain this to Luo Yang: "But most people are different. You know, there are tens of thousands of companies registered in China every day, and investment institutions don't have the energy to pay attention to every one of them. They just let the companies themselves survive the test of time and only pay attention to them after they show signs of success."
"Like me?"
Luo Yang said thoughtfully: "Nayuki was able to sit down and talk to me about investment only after the flagship store was opened and certain results were achieved and the market potential could be seen."
"But that's basically what I mean. According to the normal investment method, we should wait until you open at least 5-10 stores, and the scope is not limited to Shanghai. On the premise of achieving results, you can also have a complete plan for the next step of expansion. Only then will we officially invest in you."
He Maosong nodded and said, "There will be an observation period in between to observe the growth of the enterprise and the personal situation of the entrepreneurial boss. Your situation is slightly different, because we are quite familiar with each other, and the investment is more for you personally!"
Luo Yang was happy: "So I am still a capable person in front of those big brothers."
“We are all very optimistic about you!”
He Maosong smiled and said, "Actually, I have been paying attention to the company you founded for some time."
"Kunpeng Technology?"
"Yes, Kunpeng Technology!"
He Maosong said directly: "My professionals have analyzed the application market prospects of drones and think it is pretty good. In addition, you and DJI are the only two companies in this field in China, so it is worth continuing to pay attention to it."
"Brother, you don't want to invest in Kunpeng Technology, do you?"
"From my personal point of view, it's right to take a gamble because of you."
He Maosong put it more tactfully: "From an investment professional perspective, it is best to wait until Kunpeng is short of money, or its expansion has reached a bottleneck due to funding issues, and it has taken the initiative to start external financing. It would be safer to intervene at this time."
In fact, I am still not very optimistic about the drone application market.
Therefore, the company Kunpeng is just receiving normal attention, and the level of attention will not be too high.
"Now is the time when the Internet is booming, and there are many new startups in the capital. Brother, you have invested in and paid attention to quite a few projects, right?"
"How can I be qualified?"
Hearing what Luo Yang said, He Maosong laughed: "Even has to find others to raise funds. In the investment circle, I am just a small Karami. The amount of funds in my hand can't even make a wave. Besides, do you think I will get the fat meat?"
Although what Karami said was a bit exaggerated, He Maosong was right about one thing: he would never get any good opportunities.
"Those Internet projects that have potential and are favored have long been targeted by some large investment institutions, and they have been approached privately countless times."
He Maosong continued to explain: "Moreover, those ambitious entrepreneurs do not lack investors at all. What they want is resources, whether domestic or foreign. If the goal is to make the company a giant in the industry and want to go public in the United States, even if our Zhejiang East Capital Circle bands together, it will not be in their eyes."
After his explanation, combined with Luo Yang's own understanding, he understood a little bit.
Take Didi for example. Subsidies require huge amounts of money, which first excludes small organizations that are not strong enough.
The second is to expand the national market, which will create a natural and irreconcilable conflict with the local taxi industry. If you don't have some influence in the country, local protectionism from all over the country will strangle your expansion.
The last thing is to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange. If the investment institution does not have the resources to help the company in this regard, will Didi even take a look at you?
If you have a company with development potential and everyone is optimistic about it, even if you have money, you still won’t get financing!
"So we can only look for opportunities and invest in small and medium-sized companies with potential."
He Maosong concluded: "Moreover, in this circle, you invest in me and I invest in you, which is like building a network of relationships with each other. You never know when it will be useful."
Tsk. After hearing this, Luo Yang was puzzled.
It seems that investing in ByteDance next year is unlikely
After all, by then, I will have no resources except money!
After lunch, He Maosong left the Magic City and handed over the flight booking to An Ying, and planned to set off with Luo Yang on the 3rd.
On the way to send An Ying back to the company, Luo Yang called Teng Huatao and told him that he would go to the capital on the 3rd and visit the crew.
Teng Huatao understood what he meant. It was reasonable that Mr. Jin came to see his woman.
"Boss, you have a really strong mentality!"
An Ying, who was sitting in the co-pilot seat, looked at Luo Yang's profile and said, "We haven't finalized the flight tickets or the visit yet, but we are not panicking in front of Mr. He."
"Are you praising me or insulting me?"
"It must be a compliment to you!"
"Praise me for being thick-skinned?"
Luo Yang smiled and said, "Generally speaking, if someone has a strong psychological quality, he probably has a thick skin."
"I really don't mean to insult you."
An Ying said seriously: "Although you didn't directly ask Mr. He to take you into that circle, I can sense that you are interested in the investment circle, and you intend to avoid Mr. He."
"So obvious?"
Luo Yang frowned: "Can you tell it at a glance?"
He did not deny An Ying's guess, but was more concerned about not hiding his intentions.
"Mr. He probably can't tell."
An Ying's next words made Luo Yang feel relieved: "You have set up several foreshadowings in order to find time for Mr. He to go to the capital. I can only guess it when I know it, but Mr. He does not have this information."
"Don't you know too much?"
After I relaxed, I was in the mood to joke: "I won't kill you, but I might not let you go."
“At least now you can’t get rid of it.”
An Ying did not hide her thoughts: "The greater your ambition, the bigger the stage you can give me in the future."
"I see you have big ambitions."
“I have the ability, so why not?”
At this point, An Ying paused, and then continued: "As an assistant, no matter how well you do, you are still not considered as..."
"It's mainly because your appearance is so outstanding that people tend to overlook your abilities."
Luo Yang comforted her: "Stick to yourself, and one day the outside world will recognize your abilities."
This chicken soup made him feel nauseous.
"Pfft!"
An Ying covered her mouth and laughed, "There are so many girls in the company who are being pursued, but I'm the only one who doesn't even say a joke. Boss, what do you think is the reason?"
Luo Yang: “.”
Just like Liang Xingmin’s secretary Lu Na, no matter whether she is or not, who among the men in Jincheng Real Estate dares to hit on her?
The car suddenly became quiet.
The place where we had lunch was not far from the headquarters, and we arrived downstairs of the company soon.
Before getting off the car, An Ying curled her lips and whispered, "Looking through the industry, how many personal assistants are not the boss's women?"
Fortunately, Luo Yang didn't hear the last sentence clearly.
But it was embarrassing enough, so he quickly stepped on the accelerator and left.
When I arrived at Kunpeng Technology, I was relieved to see the thriving scene.
In late March, the company received an inquiry call, and then the land systems of two cities and prefectures made arrangements to visit the headquarters.
By the end of this month, Xiao Wei has received four inspection teams, and three more inspection teams have made appointments to come to the headquarters in early next month.
What is morale-boosting is that the inspection has brought about tangible sales results.
Up to now, Kunpeng Technology has received orders for 11 unmanned helicopters, all at the price of 30 yuan per unit given to Yang City at that time. The total sales in March reached a "historical high" of 3 million yuan.
Moreover, anyone with a discerning eye can see that during the next concentrated period of time, more and more units will come to inspect.
The Marketing and Sales Department estimates that the total orders will exceed one hundred units, with total sales exceeding 3000 million!
By then, we will take this performance record to explore other markets around Shanghai and Jiangsu Province. The performance effect will be absolutely great. It is possible that Kunpeng Technology will be able to recover its investment this year and even make a slight profit.
How can everyone not be motivated?
Especially Xiao Wei, who was in charge of reception work, walked with the wind.
"Boss Luo, this is the bill for last week's entertainment expenses. I need your approval!"
As Luo Yang walked into the office, Xiao Wei walked in with the reimbursement form.
"what?"
I took a quick look and asked, "Why is there only over 3?"
"Part of the hospitality was borne by the school."
Xiao Wei said proudly: "I have the status of a faculty member, Director Guo will lead the reception, and I can use the expenses of the Entrepreneurship Guidance Center!"
Gee.
Another leaky one.
Today is the weekend, and I have been coding to make up for the lost time.
I will post one chapter first.
