Chapter 886: The Wealth Code for Getting Rich via the Internet!
E-commerce was still in its infancy in 2008, but Tang Ye had managed to accumulate valuable experience through the operation of Qinge.
Qinge was merely a township factory with an investment scale of no more than one or two million, yet it managed to leverage small capital for big gains by relying on clever positioning and a strategy of entering the market early.
Even starting from an inconspicuous niche track, it still reaped enormous success.
In domestic fashion magazines and journals, one could frequently see the presence of Qinge;
as long as women's lingerie was mentioned, Qinge was the first choice.
And Gu Wenqin also gained widespread recognition thanks to this achievement; besides frequently appearing on the finance headlines of major media outlets, she was also successfully elected to the Provincial CPPCC and became a young female entrepreneur heavily promoted by the Government.
Tang Ye dialed Lin Ziyang's phone: "Ziyang, have the tickets been booked?"
"They're booked, I can't wait to see you!" Lin Ziyang responded with a smile.
"Alright, be safe on the road, we'll see each other then!"
He hung up the phone.
Tang Ye let out a long sigh of relief.
After several months of hard work and struggle, he had already gained a firm foothold in Dayu County.
Next.
He had to piece together the commercial puzzle of Dayu County, one by one!
A few days later.
Tang Ye picked up Lin Ziyang at the long-distance bus station.
Lin Ziyang was dressed very fashionably in a Korean-style suit.
Behind him followed two young female assistants.
Tang Ye was puzzled.
It was still summer, and the temperature was so high.
With Lin Ziyang wearing so much, wasn't he afraid of the heat!
Tang Ye took the initiative to step forward and shake hands with Lin Ziyang.
Lin Ziyang then introduced him to the two assistants: "This is Secretary Tang, whom I often mention to you."
Tang Ye shook hands with the two assistants.
The tall one was named Zhang Dan, and the petite, cute one was named Chen Shan.
Both women knew well that Tang Ye was the core figure behind Qinge's successful transformation; in Qinge's corporate culture training sessions, his name was mentioned as a key point;
furthermore, they also knew that Tang Ye's mother, Qin Lan, was one of Qinge's shareholders.
They sat inside the business van.
The two began to chat about the progress of the E-commerce Incubation Base.
"The board of directors has officially passed the plan, and we plan to select a site in the east of Dayu County to build the park.
My visit this time is, on one hand, to inspect the site selection, and on the other, to research the market."
Tang Ye took over the conversation: "I have arranged a task for you; tomorrow morning, we are holding an E-commerce training meeting at the County Party Committee Compound, and you will serve as the keynote speaker."
Lin Ziyang looked at Tang Ye with a face full of surprise: "This is too sudden! You should have told me in advance so I could prepare properly!"
Tang Ye patted Lin Ziyang on the shoulder: "I didn't tell you in advance because I didn't want you to just use a ready-made PPT to get by; I hope you can bring some real substance!"
Lin Ziyang replied helplessly: "Fine, I will do my best."
Zhang Dan and Chen Shan, sitting in the back row, listened to the two's conversation, their hearts full of astonishment.
In daily life, Lin Ziyang was cold and aloof, unruly and rebellious.
Yet in front of Tang Ye, he looked exactly like a "little fanboy."
The next morning at 9:30, the lecture at the County Party Committee Compound was held as scheduled.
Those participating in this lecture were mainly Government staff.
In addition, there were also influential local entrepreneurs.
"The speaker looks so young!"
"Don't underestimate him; he started his business in college, built it from scratch, and is now an entrepreneur with a net worth of over one hundred million!"
"Really? We should listen to this lecture carefully then!"
Tang Ye looked around and said softly:
"Comrades, entrepreneur friends, please be quiet, the course is about to begin.
Today, we are honored to have invited the well-known entrepreneur and young entrepreneurial star from Hanzhou, Mr. Lin Ziyang.
The topic of the speech he brings us is 'How to Grasp the Wealth Code of the Internet Era.'
Now, let us invite Mr. Lin to the stage with warm applause!"
Lin Ziyang had stayed up all night to rush out a PPT.
Standing on the stage, he appeared calm and composed, but inside he was somewhat uneasy.
He was afraid of not performing well and causing Tang Ye to lose face.
A few minutes later, he gradually got into the zone and became more and more engaged:
"Since a few years ago, E-commerce has gradually shown a strong growth momentum.
In the future, Internet shopping will inevitably be closely linked to the lives of ordinary people.
For individuals, venturing into the field of E-commerce means infinite possibilities;
for enterprises, investing in the field of E-commerce means seizing the initiative and grasping the trend;
for the Government, this is an important opportunity to improve the local economic level and achieve overtaking on a bend..."
Tang Ye sat in the audience, very clear in his heart.
Among the hundreds of people present, the majority held E-commerce in contempt.
Firstly, it was because they were full of fear toward new things,
and secondly, it was because they lacked confidence in themselves.
They did not believe that so-called new business models could bring earth-shaking changes to their lives.
Poverty is not terrible!
What is terrible is not believing that fate can be changed through effort!
Tang Ye knew that poverty alleviation was not just about blindly throwing resources at it.
More importantly, it was about making their thinking undergo a change.
These people had never come into contact with the outside world.
Therefore, they must be made to open their eyes and see the world!
Let them know!
What the internet is, what internet thinking is called, and how to utilize E-commerce to let Dayu County fight a beautiful comeback battle!
After the lecture ended, a man around thirty years old walked toward Lin Ziyang:
"General Manager Lin, I would like to ask for your contact information, would it be convenient for follow-up communication?"
"Of course, this is my business card." Lin Ziyang handed over a business card.
"Thank you, General Manager Lin! If you are free in the next few days, I would like to invite you to a meal to properly learn from your experience."
"I am truly sorry, my itinerary this time is arranged quite tightly, I am afraid I cannot spare the time."
"That is truly a pity," the man said with a face full of regret.
Tang Ye noticed this detail, beckoned to Ma Ran, and pointed at the man while softly instructing:
"Later, organize his relevant information and bring it to me."
Ma Ran nodded slightly: "Understood, Secretary Tang!"
Ma Ran pondered to himself, this kid is very lucky!
If there are no surprises, Tang Ye will focus his attention on his enterprise.
Subsequently, Tang Ye led Lin Ziyang to the new factory that Qinge had invested in and built in Dayu County.
Thanks to the high importance the Dayu County Party Committee and County Government placed on this project, the factory had already begun to take shape.
"The future recruitment scale of this factory will reach the sum of Qinge's Hanzhou factory, and the production capacity will also reach more than twice that of the Hanzhou factory," Tang Ye introduced to Lin Ziyang.
Lin Ziyang nodded in response: "I heard Boss Gu mention that the wage level here is originally lower than Hanzhou, but you insisted on requiring that the workers be paid the same standard of wages as in Hanzhou; in this way, the factory will certainly find it very easy to recruit workers."
Tang Ye said with a smile: "On this matter, Boss Gu gave me tremendous support."
Lin Ziyang immediately stated: "I also fully support you!"
Tang Ye felt deeply warmed in his heart.
Although his communication with Lin Ziyang was mostly through the internet, he, like Gu Wenqin, always stood firmly on his side.
Willing to give up a portion of profits in order to support him.
This unconditional trust and support were exceptionally precious.
