Chapter 395: Manager He Jun

Yang Rong was a bit dazed from being sweet-talked by Yang Qing.

Yang Qing, is this for his benefit?

Probably.

Yang Qing certainly didn't place all his hopes on Yang Rong; the manager of Numerous Stars Electrical Appliances Limited Company, He Jun, is the main force.

With a good start, He Jun worked especially hard.

He used his previous resources and quickly opened up Yinglian's channels.

Yang Qing didn't have much hope for the Western world, after all, they're the origin of Hot Quick, and water dispensers are now common; probably no one would use this thing.

But the result exceeded Yang Qing's expectations.

Yinglian distributors placed an order of fifty thousand at once.

This is very promising.

After getting the news, Yang Qing quickly rushed to the company.

"Manager He, how did you do that?"

"Such a crude product as Hot Quick actually sold that much?"

He Jun joined Many Stars only because of Yang Qing's status as the boss of Toutiao News.

Of course, the generous pay was also a factor.

"Boss, don't get excited yet; we need to expand production, otherwise we can't meet the strong demand."

"Expand production?"

Yang Qing hesitated a bit.

"You know this thing has little technical content; it's easy for others to copy."

"Do you think we need to expand production?"

He Jun said firmly.

"Yes, not only do we need it, we need it fast and big."

"The less technical content a product has, the more market share whoever captures the market will get."

"Who will make more money."

"If we don't expand production, it's like handing over a perfectly good market."

"Besides, are we going to only produce this one thing from now on?"

"We will also produce and develop other products; expanding production now can give us a much larger sales channel."

"Boss, I think in today's market, channels are the key."

"Only with sufficient and strong channels can we remain invincible."

"Even if our product is inferior to the competition, with strong channels we can still create miracles."

Yang Qing's eyes sparkled; he had found a treasure.

In the coming decades, channels will remain crucial.

Whoever controls the channels controls the world.

Thinking that He Jun could have such insight.

It's completely unlike someone from the mainland.

Yang Qing directly tossed the company seal to He Jun.

"I haven't misjudged you, He Jun; from now on, you call the shots at Numerous Stars Electrical Appliances Limited Company."

"The money in the company's account, aside from the five hundred thousand to be given to Toutiao News,"

"You can use it as you wish."

"I only handle finance and R&D."

"Go ahead and do it; if we win this battle, I won't be stingy with shares."

He Jun didn't expect that a few words from him would make the boss abandon the responsibility.

"Boss, this isn't appropriate, is it?"

This burden is a bit big for him; making up his mind is fine, but now letting him decide the company's life or death makes him rather insecure.

Yang Qing stared at his eyes.

"He Jun, if you don't push yourself in life, you'll never know how strong you really are."

"You must believe in yourself."

"You can do it; go ahead and do it your way."

Yang Qing's encouragement made He Jun a bit exhilarated.

"Thank you, boss, for your guidance."

In the following days, He Jun poured all the money into expansion.

At the same time, he didn't forget market expansion; distributors also appeared in North America and Latin America one after another.

Yang Rong also mobilized all his connections, opening sales channels in Gangdao, in places where life is decent, and in several Southeast Asian countries.

Because of the Gangdao example, the initial orders were not small; the production capacity He Jun expanded was quickly swallowed up.

Three hundred thousand orders.

Each earns five yuan, also a profit of 1.5 million.

This is still the initial order; because He Jun's channel expansion was rapid, subsequent orders won't be few either.

After Numerous Stars Electrical Appliances Limited Company finished delivering Hot Quick, counterfeit products from other factories in Gangdao began to appear on the market.

Moreover, each company already had its own products, and Hot Quick's production capacity is limited.

Numerous Stars Electrical Appliances' sales and production competitiveness tops the list.

Regarding this aspect of the operation, He Jun did well; Yang Qing asked himself, he couldn't do it.

His abilities are limited; Yang Qing knows his own limits.

After He Jun finished his plan, Yang Qing was not stingy at all.

He gave He Jun one percent of the company's equity, plus an additional one percent of the company's dividend rights.

After receiving the share certificate, He Jun felt as if he were dreaming.

Yang Qing struck while the iron was hot.

"This is your starting point, not the end."

"I'm preparing to set up the company's option pool; initially, I'll take out ten percent of the shares."

"We'll see how things go later."

"Company equity will not exceed five percent; the rest are dividend rights, and when leaving the company, the company will buy them back in full."

"Moreover, unless there is a major contribution, we will not increase the number of company shares; we will only increase dividend rights."

Yang Qing's actions made He Jun feel that his one percent share was very weighty.

"Thank you, boss; I will definitely make the company bigger and stronger."

Yang Qing was very pleased with this pep talk; he didn't see He Jun go back to work full of passion again.

Business competition is like war; having an absolute advantage does not guarantee victory.

What matters most is the customer experience.

So from now on, we need to put effort into building the brand.

Money can move the gods.

Yang Qing spent a sum of money, hired a professional company, and gave Many Stars a professional brand makeover.

He Jun studied earnestly, broadening his horizons.

On the Toutiao News side, because Many Stars injected five hundred thousand, the contest with Ming Pao also became more confident.

Money can make ghosts turn millstones; the news of the Annan War is becoming ever more timely.

Sometimes, even before Yingjiang gets the news, Toutiao here has already reported it.

Whether a newspaper is authoritative depends on the accuracy and timeliness of its news.

If you are fast and accurate, then you are authoritative.

Under the stimulus of money, Toutiao's sales rose again to about thirty-six thousand copies.

Compared to major newspapers, it may seem trivial, but don't forget that Toutiao has only been around for a few months.

To achieve such results is practically a miracle.

Facing Toutiao, which grows stronger the more it fights, Golden Hero feels at a loss.

Several people, pressed together, gathered once again.

"I think we should perhaps learn from Toutiao and seize hot topics."

"Be a bit bolder; we can report in depth on issues the public cares about."

"For example, public medical security, job rights protection, educational protection, and so on."

"We must dare to report, even the corruption and bribery problems of Yinglian people, the extortion problems, the bullying of the public…"

"It's a bit risky…"

"Yes, it's a bit risky…"

Both felt that Golden Hero was a bit too bold.

Golden Hero, however, did not think so.

"A newspaper—isn't it just for rallying the people?"

"If you think it's dangerous, we can start with education."

"In this regard, the Hong Fu government also intends to promote it; we can also be said to go with the trend."
