Chapter 106: Creating a Miracle at Dusk
Hearing Li Li Dongling's words, Zhong Zhong Lifei's expression became serious. He didn't know what conditions Li Li Dongling would put forward, but Li Li Dongling and the Li Dongling High-Tech side were absolutely not to be offended by him and "Football Club" magazine. "Li Zong, please speak!"
Looking at Zhong Zhong Lifei's solemn expression, Li Li Dongling waved his hand with a smile. "Editor-in-Chief Zhong doesn't need to worry, it's not a difficult thing!"
"I am preparing to establish a website. I hope that in the future, 'Football Club' magazine can move the content of past magazines to this website!"
Li Li Dongling said to Zhong Zhong Lifei. This year, the country had already connected to the international internet, and the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications had already let out the wind that it would provide internet access services to society next year. Although the price of handling internet services was ridiculously expensive and one could only use dial-up internet, a new era was ultimately coming.
After next year, the number of internet users in society would become more and more, and various BBS sites and forums would appear. Li Li Dongling was also preparing to establish a website.
"Put it on a website?" Zhong Zhong Lifei looked at Li Li Dongling in surprise. "Will anyone watch it?"
Li Li Dongling laughed. In the first few years of the internet in the previous life, the sports channel created by Sina used text to broadcast some matches during popular matches. The number of users watching was so high that it often crashed the server. Of course, it hadn't reached that level yet. Establishing a website was basically for "watering" (spamming/chatting). It could kill some time late at night.
"This might be an opportunity for 'Football Club' magazine!"
Li Li Dongling said to Zhong Zhong Lifei, seeing the latter's puzzled expression. "Editor-in-Chief Zhong, have you ever thought about one day letting 'Football Club' become an international football media outlet?!"
The expression on Zhong Zhong Lifei's face changed several times, and finally he smiled helplessly. "For those doing football magazines in the country, counting one by one, who doesn't want to become an international media outlet, be able to interview football stars, and even directly participate in match reports? But it's too difficult. They can't even occupy the domestic market, let alone abroad!"
"There will always be opportunities. Moving 'Football Club' magazine to a computer is the best opportunity." Li Li Dongling looked at him and said.
What is a dividend, especially the first wave of dividends? It is something that can turn a pheasant into a phoenix, can let a person soar into the sky, leap 90,000 li. If "Football Club" magazine could seize the internet dividend and eat the first wave of traffic when other media hadn't reacted, then with the help of the internet's influence, it was very likely to become the top sports media in the world from a local football magazine in the country!
"If Li Zong has any needs, 'Football Club' magazine will absolutely cooperate!"
Zhong Zhong Lifei didn't know what Li Li Dongling wanted to do, but now Li Li Dongling was the most important partner of "Football Club" magazine. Through Li Dongling High-Tech to bring Ronaldo into the country for activities, for him, was the most important thing. He absolutely dared not offend Li Li Dongling and Li Dongling High-Tech.
"Splash!"
"I caught a fish!"
Over there, Yao Yao Luoying struggled to pull up her fishing rod, and a sharp-jawed red-fin fish that looked at least ten pounds heavy was hooked on her line.
Seeing the big fish Yao Yao Luoying caught, and then looking at his own fishing rod that had no movement, Li Li Dongling felt that the bait thrown for the "nest" was still too little!
The cooking smoke rose. The big fish Yao Yao Luoying caught was cleaned and placed on the grill, grilled together with other beef and lamb legs brought over.
Taking down a lamb leg that had already been grilled golden, Li Li Dongling cut the meat open and served a piece to everyone.
First, he raised his glass to clink with Yao Yao Luoying, Ren Ren Yuefeng, Hu Hu Zixian, Gao Peng, Zhong Zhong Lifei, and others. Then Li Li Dongling raised his glass again and said to Ren Ren Yuefeng, "To the best professional manager in Asia this year!"
"I don't dare to accept!"
A smile rarely appeared on Ren Ren Yuefeng's face, which was always serious and board-like. "Best professional manager in Asia" and the like were all nicknames, but every year, media like CNN, BBC, Forbes, etc., would evaluate the world's top ten managers, the world's most influential figures, etc.
With Li Dongling High-Tech's performance this year, if there were no accidents, Ren Ren Yuefeng, as general manager, would get some titles.
However, the most important thing was that after this war between Shenzhou and Ximen, the market value of Ren Ren Yuefeng, Zhang Ao, and others had increased by a large margin. I don't know how many companies now wanted to poach them. In the country, whether it was computers, TVs, refrigerators, or other industries, which company didn't want to go overseas and sell products abroad to earn foreign exchange?
If it was during the electronic pet machine project, other domestic companies were just envious of Li Dongling High-Tech, and many people thought Li Dongling High-Tech just stepped on dog shit luck. But the appearance of Shenzhou phones, especially the head-on confrontation and defeat of Ximen, made companies in the country, and even in Asia, including places like South Korea and Singapore, start to become jealous of Li Dongling High-Tech.
During this period, I don't know how many companies threw olive branches to Ren Ren Yuefeng and a host of Li Dongling High-Tech executives, offering high prices or even sky-high treatment, wanting to poach people and replicate all this of Shenzhou.
During this period, a few executives did leave Li Dongling High-Tech. This was an unavoidable thing. Ren Ren Yuefeng was also a talent Li Dongling High-Tech poached from elsewhere. One couldn't just let Li Dongling High-Tech poach others and not allow others to poach Li Dongling High-Tech's wall.
But besides a few supervisors who left, Ren Ren Yuefeng, Hu Hu Zixian, Gao Peng, Chen Tao, Gao Gao Zhiyuan, and others didn't leave. Ren Ren Yuefeng and Hu Hu Zixian were old hands. They weren't dazzled by flowers and applause. They knew clearly how all this came about.
On one hand, the treatment Li Dongling High-Tech gave was indeed not low. Even if poached away, the treatment provided by other companies might not necessarily exceed Li Dongling High-Tech by much. In addition, the big cakes drawn, such as giving equity, serving as general manager, or even entering the board of directors, might not necessarily be eaten. In this era, there were too many scam companies.
On the other hand, for the projects Li Dongling High-Tech could do, such as the Silver Mink mouse, electronic pet machine, and Shenzhou phone, Ren Ren Yuefeng and Hu Hu Zixian knew who the real helmsman was. Without Li Li Dongling's support of turning the tide and going all out, Li Dongling High-Tech could never have reached today.
The most direct example was Zhang Ao. Zhang Ao was fighting Ximen hard in Europe, but he wasn't fighting with his mouth; he had real USD continuously supported over, and he was given enough authority to handle personnel, finance, etc.
If it were other company bosses, facing the so many expenses Zhang Ao spent every day, it is estimated that they would have jumped their feet long ago. As for handing over personnel and financial power to one person to handle entirely, they wouldn't even dare to think about it. That was a daily turnover of tens of millions of USD!
As for drawing big cakes, Ren wondered if other companies could draw cakes bigger than Li Li Dongling's. Sending Feiyan Technology to Nasdaq—wasn't that bigger than any cake? In the country, the biggest cake drawn by companies was at most to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Besides Li Li Dongling, no one dared to shout about Nasdaq.
If it were before, Ren Ren Yuefeng and others still had some doubts about the cake of Feiyan Technology listing on Nasdaq drawn by Li Li Dongling, but after the battle between Shenzhou and Ximen, they felt that this cake, in Li Li Dongling's hands, was extremely likely to be realized.
If this big cake of Feiyan was realized, then the equity rewards Ren Ren Yuefeng, Yao Yao Luoying, Hu Hu Zixian, Zhang Ao, and others received would be far more than what they would get by defecting to other companies!
Filling their stomachs a bit, Gao Peng accompanied Zhong Zhong Lifei to drink a few cups. Li Li Dongling came to the fishing platform and threw out a rod again.
Yao Yao Luoying sat down beside Li Li Dongling, looking at the Yuhe Leisure Resort that was about to be built. The reservoir was surrounded by mountains on three sides. The mountains weren't very high, but because of the drop, the surrounding peaks made people feel the majesty of the mountains. The visual effect was very strong. The peaks were reflected in the water, making people feel that the mountains and water were of one color, and the scenery was very magnificent.
"If later, when I get old, I am willing to build a house here and live here!"
When Yao Yao Luoying withdrew her gaze, she looked at Li Li Dongling. She was talking, but her hands didn't stop, and she caught another fish. In just this short while, Yao Yao Luoying had already caught two fish.
After Li Li Dongling glanced at the fish caught a few times, he didn't want to look anymore. He let go of the fishing rod in his hand and asked Yao Yao Luoying, "How is the research and development of the Feiyan mini radio going?!"
Before acquiring Feiyan, it was acquired together with the equipment and brand, as well as some engineers who developed Feiyan radios, who were recruited together.
Feiyan had quite a reputation in Hanxi Province and even surrounding provinces. Using this brand didn't require too much publicity to let users in Hanxi Province and surrounding areas accept it. After occupying the market in these areas, they would then develop to other provinces.
Like the electronic pet machine and Shenzhou phone of Li Dongling High-Tech now, which were mainly for export, if the Feiyan mini radio could be done well, it could also be sold to Europe, America, Canada, Japan, etc., and it would be in the capacity of hard currency!
The role of a radio is not just for listening to songs, operas, news, and competitions in daily life; at critical moments, such as wars, snow disasters, power outages, earthquakes, and other natural disasters, radios are used as strategic supplies!
If Feiyan can occupy the domestic mini-radio market first, it can grab a huge piece of the cake. Conservative sales estimates exceed ten million units, and even far exceed that. Occupying the domestic market, then attacking the overseas market!
One must know that in the previous life, in the so-called twilight era of radios, Tecsun radios were born, and it was by relying on mini-radios that they swept the global radio market. The two legendary models, the Kk9 and R909, had global sales exceeding one hundred million!
However, in this life, such a miracle will probably have to be created by Feiyan. Daily-use radios, plus export-type emergency disaster relief radios—as long as the first shot can be fired, those mini-radios will provide Feiyan with a stable cash flow to enter the car radio market, internet radio, and so on.
If the radio market is still viewed by Wall Street and global venture capital firms as a twilight industry, then internet radio is definitely a trendy thing. Feiyan, which launches Dragonfly FM, Himalaya FM, and the like, will have performance and concepts, enough to board NASDAQ and harvest a large crop of American leeks.
PS: Salute to Tecsun!
The Tecsun GR88 emergency radio has been certified by the military of a certain major power, and the International Red Cross, International Rescue Committee, etc., have all purchased it. At its peak, it exported one million units to the United States alone every year. In many places during disaster relief, before 2015, besides water, food, and tents, radios were also dropped into disaster areas. It has always existed!
