Chapter 964: All Friends

~18 min read 3,423 words

Zheng Qiudong and Luo Yiren left Hangzhou to do business, make money, and build their reputation, as well as to reminisce about the past and deepen their feelings.

During these few days, Zheng Qiudong and Luo Yiren did a work handover with Wang Yan and his wife. Calling it a handover, in reality, there wasn't that much complex business. In fact, the finance here in Hangzhou was not independent; as the company's CFO, Wang Yan knew the situation very well.

It was just Luo Yiren and Xiong Qingchun chatting and laughing, talking about which employee was doing how, and some other plans. Zheng Qiudong was handing over the unfinished business he was doing to Wang Yan, and Wang Yan would continue to do it.

Furthermore, they took time to give lectures to the employees, imparting experience, and so on. The work processes were all the same; this was what Zheng Qiudong had learned from him in Nanning and moved to Hangzhou as-is.

Compared to work, there was one more important thing. That was that the car ordered at the 4S dealership earlier had arrived, and they had notified Xiong Qingchun to pick it up.

A total of three cars were bought this time. One Buick GL8, which was for business reception. One top-spec Magotan, which Zheng Qiudong chose. In fact, Zheng Qiudong regretted it, just because he had said before that a car of 200,000-plus was fine, and for the sake of a tiny bit of face, he couldn't change his words. The reason he regretted it was that the third car was a Mercedes-Benz E-Class, silver-gray, which looked very handsome.

Although they said that the car didn't matter and that it was just for transportation, they couldn't withstand the comparison, and what's more, it was all public spending; Zheng Qiudong felt it wasn't worth it for himself.

He thought about saving a little where he could, but his good big brother really did what he said and started enjoying it in advance. After all, a car of nearly 500,000 could already be said to be enjoyment; for a normal family car, let alone an average person, even a second-rate person couldn't drive one...

Listening to the store manager chattering in his ear about how it was supposed to take a month, but there happened to be one, and he had gone to great lengths to get it, and looking at the car decorated by the 4S dealership, although Wang Yan had no ripples in his heart, he still smiled happily on the surface, expressed his gratitude to the store manager, and let Xiong Qingchun pull him to stand by the car for a photo.

At this time, what he thought didn't matter; what mattered was that the cooperation was in place and the emotions were expressed in place.

Xiong Qingchun was very satisfied. Removing the unnecessary messy things, she tore off all kinds of films on the spot, sat in the driver's seat, cautiously started the car, shifted gears, and left.

"Don't say it, this luxury car is really good."

Driving on the road, Xiong Qingchun was focused, and she sighed: "To be honest, I really didn't expect that I would be able to drive such a good car in this lifetime."

Wang Yan leaned against the car window, supporting his head, sitting in the passenger seat relaxed and leisurely: "This is just the beginning. Let's develop a bit more, and in these two years, we'll be able to drive a Porsche."

"Forget it, this car is enough. Let's save some money. Now house prices change every day, and experts nag every day about prices dropping, but after nagging for several years, they've only gotten higher. I feel they will continue to rise in the future. Especially since Hangzhou is developing well, they will definitely rise even more. The earlier you buy, the more you earn. If house prices rise by 2,000, just this back and forth, how much business do you think we could do?"

"I am not talented, but I have confidence in outrunning house prices. Hey, watch the road, what are you staring at?"

Wang Yan waved his hand: "A house costs several million. To withdraw money from the company, there must be at least ten million in the account. Although I am the big boss and have the most shares, Qiudong has to be considered, right? I buy a house, and he doesn't? This is not a one-man show; you can't just withdraw money because you say so."

"Then let's withdraw two or three million first, and withdraw two or three million for Qiudong, counting it as a loan, and we'll take the money to get a mortgage to buy a house. Then we'll raise our salaries to cover the monthly mortgage and pay back the company's money."

"What you say is not wrong, but what did I say just now? I have confidence in outrunning house prices. Relatively speaking, the various expenses of buying a house, and two sets at that, is not maximizing benefits. I certainly understand that having a house deed means having a home, but just like buying a car, we can slow down a bit.

We bought the car a year late, and now? We bought three at once. You, don't be so impatient. Everything is developing and changing, and tomorrow will be better."

"I didn't say I was buying it tomorrow, did I?"

"I know, you grasp the spirit of it; good food is not afraid of being late." Wang Yan smiled and pushed her face back, "Watch the road. A small scratch is three or five thousand, and a big accident is our two lives; you have to be focused when driving. I've only enjoyed freedom for less than a year, and I haven't lived enough yet."

"Am I not an old driver?"

"Then shift a gear and let me see?"

"This is an automatic transmission."

"Then this driver of yours is not skilled and experienced enough."

"What are you saying, how could I..." Zi Yi Ren turned her head, looked at Wang Yan, and followed Wang Yan's downward movement to look down...

"Get lost, I'm driving. I think you've really lived enough."

"Look at what you're saying, am I not driving too..."

Xiong Qingchun gave a charming sideways glance, punched him, and then drove back to the company properly...

It was also at this time that Wang Yan truly started his work in Hangzhou.

Hangzhou is more developed, and part-time business is more developed. But Zheng Qiudong didn't put much energy into this aspect; he actually looked down on this kind of part-time business. Wang Yan's success in Nanning didn't make Zheng Qiudong value this area; instead, he was even more relaxed. After all, with Nanning supporting and covering the bottom, he had a lot of confidence.

So after developing for a period of time and earning the operating costs, Zheng Qiudong gave up the part-time business without hesitation and turned to do proper headhunting business. Of course, this giving up wasn't really giving up; it was just not valuing it. If there was no major fluctuation in profit, he wouldn't care and had always left it to the employees responsible for part-time business to do.

This was certainly wrong. Mosquitoes, no matter how small, are meat, not to mention that it's linked to later internet products, so it must be done. And not only Hangzhou, but even major cities in the Yangtze River Delta region like Shanghai, Nanjing, and Suzhou must be covered, and then do part-time business in the Pearl River Delta and Beijing.

At that time, the product would have fermented enough, and the part-time business in these developed regions would be launched and opened, and then extended to full-time recruitment business, which would immediately poke the butts of recruitment and local software like 58 and Liepin. At that time, looking for an opportunity to open group-buying selections would be provoking other group-buying software.

Of course, before that, his product would have to have a go with review software...

So Zheng Qiudong did quite well, in that even though he didn't expand the part-time market, relying on the advantages of Hangzhou city itself, he had already achieved a performance of 200,000, covering costs and having a surplus. But that was just quite well. After all, the market here is bigger, and doing another 200,000 in performance would be easy.

But Zheng Qiudong stopped expanding, just arranging two employees to maintain the original business and carry out docking, and new business was only occasionally introduced. And in the process of docking, or due to other factors outside, it was inevitable that some Party A would leave. Losing some and adding some, it generally guaranteed stable operation.

Obviously, this was not enough.

So contrary to the employees of the Hangzhou branch looking forward to seeing the big boss show off his skills, big boss Wang didn't pay attention to the few small orders Zheng Qiudong was doing, all of which were done by Xiong Qingchun. Instead, he exerted his strength in the part-time market.

The first thing was to expand the team. The action was very fast; he interviewed and recruited two people on the first day, and the next day he personally went out to talk about part-time business with the two of them.

This kind of business, which mainly relies on communication, is the same for Wang Yan no matter which city he goes to. After all, he has always been very trustworthy and has never disappointed everyone who is friendly to him.

Those who can talk, can talk no matter what. It's nothing more than some requirements, returning some points, etc. These are all small things; after all, everyone has money to earn. Those who can't talk, don't have to force it. Just as he taught Huang Zimu before, if this one doesn't work, then the next one. If the attitude is not good, just smile and let it pass. Generally, no one will have such great hostility from the start. It is understandable that the attitude is not good, but there are very few who look for trouble for themselves, although it is not excluded.

This kind of looking for trouble is a seasoning in life for Wang Yan. But for the two college students who had just entered the workplace and were learning from him, it was a real understanding of what society is, which is a very important point.

College students, when they have just graduated or even graduated for a year or two, can't get rid of that kind of childishness. It can be said that they are unwilling to grow up, or it can be said that they have not adapted to this real world. In short, they are lacking that kind of energy.

Wang Yan still maintained the work schedule he had when working in Nanning: going out in the morning, finding a place to eat at noon, strolling around outside, continuing to work in the afternoon until near get-off work time, driving back to the company, understanding the situation of part-time docking, as well as the situation of other employees in the company doing headhunting business, and helping to solve problems. Afterward, except for the accountant, everyone had a rich dinner at the company together, and after that, Wang Yan started a class and got off work at eight o'clock.

Overtime pay, of course, didn't exist; this was the company's professional training for employees. Wang Mouren had skills all over his body; as long as they learned a trace of fur, for these people, it was truly useful for life.

This state didn't last for a long time, only one month. The personnel were basically trained, and the two newly recruited people who opened up part-time business had also started to work independently. After all, they had followed Wang Yan for a month. Under his personal teaching, although they were new to the world and certainly not doing well, they finally had performance.

Although Wang Yan didn't always look three steps ahead, this time he didn't recruit people casually. The conditions in all aspects were quite good, and they were worth cultivating, and the salary and treatment were also very good. As long as they were skilled in work, accumulated experience, and improved their level, they would be the pillars of opening up territory in the future.

And at this time, the autumn in Jiang Nan was already cool, and Zheng Qiudong and others who went to Beijing to hunt Qu Minjing returned triumphantly, and Lin Bai also stopped by on the way. The special hunting was also here, not too far away.

A group of people were sitting in Zheng Qiudong's big office, with smiles on their faces.

Wang Yan held up a teacup and said: "Congratulations on your triumphant return. I'll use tea instead of wine to toast you first."

Zheng Qiudong and others laughed out loud, giving face, and the tea was delicious. Of course, this tea was indeed quite good; it was the first-picked Longjing of this year. When Zheng Qiudong came over in early spring, although it was the early stage of entrepreneurship, he didn't keep drilling into work. Under his persuasion, he still strolled around a few times. It just happened that the new tea was on the market at that time. Knowing he loved tea, he made a call to ask, and bought quite a lot with public funds at that time.

Relatively speaking, Zheng Qiudong loved coffee, and the tea here basically didn't move much, all left for Wang Yan.

After taking a sip of tea, Zheng Qiudong said: "Brother Yan, thanks to your reminder before, letting me find an opportunity to explain the past when chatting, otherwise it would have been a disaster. Let me tell you, Brother Yan, at that time we..."

What he said was the matter in the original story where Qu Minjing discovered Zheng Qiudong and Lin Bai appearing in the same frame as the person who was confirmed to be in power in the report, thought there was a connection, harbored some ulterior motives, and had a misunderstanding and resentment toward Zheng Qiudong.

Now Zheng Qiudong had long ago explained the past that had been dealt with, first leaving Qu Minjing with an honest impression, and the latter was willing to give him a chance to listen to his explanation.

Originally, Luo Yiren came forward to tell Qu Minjing about Zheng Qiudong's past, and then Qu Minjing watched the video of Zheng Qiudong exposing himself at the Mediterranean Bank and deciding to be a sincere person, which gave Zheng Qiudong a chance again.

It was because of Wang Yan that Zheng Qiudong didn't have that experience, and it was also because of him that Zheng Qiudong successfully completed this business, which was also the reason why Wang Yan mentioned it earlier.

Hunting Qu Minjing was indeed good for the company's development, otherwise, whether it was successful or not, he wouldn't care.

After listening to Zheng Qiudong's account, Wang Yan smiled and nodded: "Then I also contributed, and I have a share of the credit, haha. In this way, Lin Bai, don't leave. It's already afternoon. Let's talk, and find a place to celebrate later."

"Okay, I have nothing to do, just joining the fun." Lin Bai agreed readily; he was determined to be someone who wouldn't spoil the fun.

"Brother Yan, I heard that you did part-time business this month, from 200,000 to 500,000?" Luo Yiren blinked her eyes, asking knowingly.

Wang Yan glanced at her, didn't see any deep meaning in her eyes, just a normal flattering question.

He smiled at her: "Hangzhou is more developed than Nanning, there are more people doing part-time jobs here, the market is bigger, so it's not strange to do 300,000 more. Before, Qiudong didn't increase strength here. What's more, I ran outside for a whole month."

"Brother Yan is just humble. If you let me do it, I wouldn't be able to do so much." Zheng Qiudong waved his hand.

"I'm the same. This month is because of my relationship. I won't do it next month. I'll leave it to them to do. 500,000 performance is enough, and keeping 400,000 is considered a success."

"Wang Zong, I see you value part-time business very much. Is it paving the way for future products?"

"On one hand, on the other hand, it is naturally to make money. 400,000 to 500,000 a month, 5 to 6 million a year, this business can't be said to be small, right? And what is our investment? Four graduates who have just started working for not long. Salary, commission, social security, eating and drinking, adding up to 50,000 is the limit. This business is so good, isn't it?"

Wang Yan raised an eyebrow at Zheng Qiudong: "You, you just have high spirits. Headhunting sounds good, but isn't it still an intermediary? You hunt for a year, can you hunt out 6 million in performance?"

"I went the wrong way, Brother Yan."

"You went very well." Wang Yan shook his head and smiled: "My meaning is, you have to be more steady."

"I understand. Wang Zong is telling you that hunting Qu Minjing is not the end, and more powerful figures will appear in the future. You have to be down-to-earth, not arrogant or impatient. I didn't say it wrong, Wang Zong?"

Still doing reading comprehension, Wang Yan shook his head amusingly: "It's just the literal meaning. I've been with Qiudong for a long time. He has energy, but when the energy comes up, it's easy to be impatient, and his heart is not settled. Yiren, speaking of which, this task was still yours, and now it's returned to you."

Luo Yiren covered her mouth and chuckled: "It still has to be you, this good big brother, who speaks and he listens; I can't say it."

Xiong Qingchun nodded: "They are the same, male chauvinism, both are donkeys that need to be stroked."

"You manage it, Brother Yan, we've both become donkeys."

"Hey hey hey, I'm still here." Lin Bai expressed that he couldn't bear to look, with a face of disgust.

Wang Yan asked with a smile: "Is your wife in Hangzhou? Call her over in the evening, let's get to know each other."

"Zi Yi Ren is. Zi Yi Ren also wants to see you, and said that in the future, she will make an appointment with President Luo and President Xiong to go out and play."

"Hey, Lin Bai, we are so familiar, why call her President Luo and President Xiong, so distant. Call her Yiren, call me Qingchun."

"Exactly, criticizing you, Lin Bai." Luo Yiren helped out with a smile.

"Yes yes yes, Qingchun, Yiren, Yiren, Qingchun, familiar now? Then I'll be like Qiudong, call you Brother Yan?"

"They are all code names, I don't care. But there is one thing I want to remind you."

Wang Yan said to Lin Bai with a smile: "Nanning and Hangzhou are both counted. Last month, Yan Chunqiu's profit was 1,174,689.53 yuan, officially breaking through one million, which can be considered a milestone month. Your successful hunt for Qu this time will definitely have some movement in the industry. It is conceivable that Yan Chunqiu's business will definitely be better next."

"I was idle, so I recalculated the valuation again. Conservatively estimated, I think the figure of 62 million is very reasonable. You should think about it carefully."

Lin Bai was stunned, and then opened his mouth to speak...

Wang Yan interrupted: "I said, the door of Yan Chunqiu is always open to you. You can come anytime. I also remember what we said when we met before, just telling you the situation so you can understand. No matter what, it will absolutely not delay us being friends. I respect you very much."

Lin Bai smiled bitterly and nodded. What could he say?

This statement had no flaws, but everyone present knew that Wang Yan was creating a sense of urgency for him here. He was sure that if there was no indication this month, when they met next month, Wang Yan would still nag him about the company's performance and then casually say a new valuation figure for the company.

"I absolutely support Brother Yan's decision. Lin Bai, the door of Yan Chunqiu is always open to you." Zheng Qiudong smiled and raised his eyebrows.

Lin Bai was speechless... ===== CHAPTER 965 =====
