I can become stronger by paying salaries. I have one billion employees!

Chapter 277 Some people get worse the more you dig into them, while others get better the more you dig into them!

Meituan's loyal users were indignant, believing that all crows are black, and they did not believe that all companies and employees under Senlian Capital could receive overtime pay.

So these people frantically collected relevant information from forums, online communities, and QQ groups, and checked the number of insured persons for each subsidiary on the official website of the Social Security Association.

A day later, a detailed investigation summary was posted online.

The funniest thing is that the poster was cursing Kuai Pao and Chen Yansen the day before, clearly a loyal fan of Meituan, but he turned around and turned his guns on Wang Xin.

The comments section was full of people mocking him.

"Dude! Are you schizophrenic? You're the one praising Meituan, and you're also the one criticizing Meituan."

"Senlian Capital has as many as 150,000 employees contributing to social security?"

"Even delivery drivers and food delivery workers have the five social insurances and one housing fund, and even the cleaning lady in the cafeteria has social security. What's going on?"

"Some people get worse the more you dig into them, while others become more famous!"

Netizens' attention quickly shifted from Meituan to Senlian Capital.

Take the express delivery industry as an example. There are very few companies that pay social security for their couriers. Apart from Yunsu, SF Express, JD.com and Bond, the rest don't even provide the five social insurances and one housing fund, let alone high-temperature subsidies and overtime pay.

Previously, some employees of Yunsu Express, Orange Mobile Phone Factory, and Kuaipao had posted their pay slips online, which now serve as the best proof.

As netizens delve deeper, the true nature of Senlian Capital's treatment and welfare system is gradually coming to light.

Base salary, 20% monthly salary housing allowance, meal allowance, transportation allowance, five social insurances and one housing fund, quarterly bonus, up to three times the normal overtime pay, supplementary medical insurance, holiday bonuses, travel fund...

There are more than twenty items in total.

It completely turned the boiling water ball into dust!

It's fair to say that Meituan Waimai lost half the battle before it even launched.

Two days later, Zhu Qingbao announced on Weibo that he would be joining the Yanjing branch of Kuaipao Takeaway next Monday to work for Chen Yansen.

This scene made netizens extremely envious.

After being invited by phone, the CCTV-2 program team for "Dialogue with Celebrities" rushed to Xucheng to use Chen Yansen as the subject of their next episode.

It's worth noting that the guests invited to "Dialogue with the Big Shots" are all industry heavyweights such as Li Yanhong, Wang Jianlin, Guo Changguang, and Zong Qinghou.

Despite Chen Yansen's considerable wealth and influence, he has only been in the business world for two years.

Chen Yansen readily agreed to use CCTV's platform to promote his company without hesitation.

It can save at least several million in advertising costs, so why not?

……

……

Orange Technology headquarters, top floor conference room.

"Wang Xin's management style is unique in the industry. He is calm and rational, and has a strong ability to execute. His ability to stand out from the group-buying war is by no means a fluke."

Ding Lei sat on the sofa and said to Chen Yansen's back, "I think you can talk to him. Whether it's investing or acquiring him, it's better than engaging in a price war."

Chen Yansen took a jar of West Lake Longjing tea from the cabinet, turned around and went back to the coffee table, where he boiled water and brewed tea by himself.

He didn't expect that Ding Lei would actually bring several bottles of good wine and make a special trip to Xucheng to drink with him.

Although there were various complex factors involved, it's not hard to see that Ding Lei is a pragmatic and open-minded person. After several exchanges and collaborations, he really came to regard Ding Lei as a friend.

However, Chen Yansen knew another side of Ding Lei: stingy, intolerant, and unable to tolerate criticism; in short, he was a "real villain."

He has a lot of bad habits, which are all written on his face.

"You're not interested?" Ding Lei asked curiously as he took the tea Chen Yansen offered.

“I know Wang Xin’s character and personality better than you do. Even if he has accepted investment from Senlian Capital now, it’s probably just a delaying tactic. Who knows, he might turn around and bite me one day.”

Chen Yansen picked up his teacup and said with a light laugh.

Wang Xin is a notorious traitor in the industry, with a wealthy family background and high aspirations, making him difficult to recruit and use.

He stabbed Ahri in the back one day, and then turned against the penguin the next.

This kind of person is impossible to tame!

He could accept Huang Zheng, Liang Bo, and Zhang Yiming, but his attitude towards Wang Xin never changed.

Upon hearing this, Ding Lei frowned slightly, then smiled faintly, not taking it to heart.

He approached Chen Yansen about a collaboration with NetEase Mobile, and also to deepen their 'relationship'.

As for Wang Xin, it was just mentioned casually.

"Is the design of NetEase's mobile phone complete?" Chen Yansen asked directly, not wanting to beat around the bush.

Ding Lei's ambitions are nothing more than Orange Technology's Aurora OS system, supply chain, and OEM services.

He can give it to Zhou Hongyi, and of course he can give it to Ding Lei as well.

Why wouldn't you make money if you could?

"I brought schematics, PCB design drawings, assembly drawings, BOM list, hardware interface definition documents, and antenna design materials. Mr. Chen, could you please review them for me?" Ding Lei asked with a smile.

“As long as we follow Zhou Hongyi’s plan, sales will definitely not be low,” Chen Yansen said calmly.

Despite being a novice in the mobile phone industry, Zhou Hongyi's business strategies are far superior to those of NetEase, Alibaba, and Shanda.

Ali once developed the YunOS system and launched an Ali Cloud Phone in July last year. It features a 3.8-inch touchscreen, a Tegra 2 dual-core processor, 512MB RAM and 8GB ROM, and is priced at 2688 yuan.

As expected, no one showed interest.

A month later, Orange C1 was launched, followed closely by Xiaomi, making Ali Cloud Phone a laughing stock.

In April of this year, Ma Liyun learned her lesson and realized that with Ali's influence, a phone priced at around 4 yuan was already the limit.

The Haier W910 from 360 serves as a cautionary tale!

Therefore, the new generation of Ali Cloud Phone – Bumblebee W806 – not only upgraded the screen to 4.3 inches, but also changed the RAM to 1GB, with a starting price of only 1499 yuan.

In just one month, 60 units were sold.

However, once May was over, 360 Mobile was launched, priced at only 1299 yuan, which snatched away 70-80% of Ali Cloud Mobile's users, causing sales in May to drop to 100,000 units.

The Shanda mobile phone, which was launched in June, sold 20 units in a week without even advertising, thanks to its 4.3-inch QHD capacitive screen, 1GB of RAM, and a starting price of 1299 yuan.

Therefore, when selling special edition phones in 2012, the only way forward was to offer high cost-performance. Chen Yansen's words were indeed heartfelt.

"I'm not as stupid as Ma Liyun!" Ding Lei curled his lip, seemingly disdainful of the current e-commerce kingpin, then took out a document and gently placed it on the coffee table.

Chen Yansen smiled but did not comment on it.

Although Ma Liyun and Ding Lei are from the same hometown, they have a deep-seated grudge against each other. Seven years ago, during the battle between Taobao and eBay, Ma Liyun approached the bosses of major portals to seek traffic support.

When eBay found out, they offered double the advertising fee, on one condition: they wouldn't accept Taobao's ads. Ding Lei was the first to agree. From a business perspective, Ding Lei's actions were understandable, but this created a rift between them.

Last year, Ma Liyun separated Zhifubao's equity from Ali without informing the investors.

On the very first day the news broke, NetEase featured it on its homepage.

He also privately criticized Ma Liyun for being unethical and lacking integrity.

Chen Yansen guessed that Ma Liyun must have been causing Ding Lei a lot of trouble behind the scenes, otherwise Ding Lei's resentment wouldn't be so strong.

他拿起BOM清单扫了一眼，网易锐影G1：4.0英寸IPS触摸屏、骁龙MSM8225双核1.2GHz处理器、1GB RAM加4GB ROM，支持MicroSD卡扩展至32GB，后置摄像头500万像素，前置摄像头190万像素。

"How much should we price it?" Chen Yansen asked casually, putting down the documents.

"At 1399 yuan, it's comparable to 360, Shanda, and Ali Cloud phones, after all, the Ruiying G1 has a stronger processor."

Ding Lei answered without hesitation, clearly having already prepared a plan.

"There shouldn't be any major problems. With the addition of the Aurora OS 1.3 system, I think the sales volume won't be lower than 360's," Chen Yansen commented objectively.

"I'm relieved to hear you say that," Ding Lei said with a grin.

"How many units are prepared for the first launch?" Chen Yansen asked again.

"20," Ding Lei said confidently.

The price of 1399 yuan is not high. Compared with Orange Technology, 360, and Xiaomi, it may not have much of an advantage, but compared with Apple, HTC, and Sanxing, the price is very attractive.

Six months ago, when NetEase had just hinted at its idea of ​​making mobile phones, netizens spontaneously created a "NetEase Mobile Phone Tieba" for Ding Lei, with content expressing their expectations for NetEase mobile phones.

In their view, a key characteristic of internet companies manufacturing mobile phones is that they forgo hardware profits to achieve the ultimate cost-effectiveness.

Apple, HTC, and Sanxing phones may be better, but high-spec, low-price special edition phones are the better choice.

After listening, Chen Yansen nodded slightly and asked Ding Lei to send him the electronic version of the documents, leaving the task of signing the contract to his subordinates.

The two chatted while drinking tea.

As the sky outside the window gradually darkened, Chen Yansen glanced at the time and invited Ding Lei to the rooftop garden in the city.

Wang Teng and Ye Qiuping accompanied them.

The drinking party didn't end until 11 p.m. After Chen Yansen escorted Ding Lei to his guest room to rest, he left with Wang Teng and Ye Qiuping.

"Boss, be careful," Wang Teng said, slightly tipsy, standing next to a Mercedes.

He drove here, and he has to wait for a designated driver to arrive.

"Then we'll be going now." Chen Yansen said, and got into the back seat of Ghost's car.

Ye Qiuping didn't drive; she followed them inside.

She lowered her head, and a glimpse of her snow-white skin came into Chen Yansen's view.

The visual impact of a D-cup is very strong, and my anger flared up instantly.

"Boss, I live in Longdeyuan, No. 24 Bianhe Middle Road." After closing the car door, Ye Qiuping seemed to be talking to Chen Yansen, but she was actually speaking to the driver, Xiao Li.

"Xiao Li, take President Ye back first," Chen Yansen instructed.

Xiao Li nodded and focused on driving.

A gentle evening breeze blew, and the street scenes on both sides of the road kept flashing by. Neon lights flickered, and the virtual city under the night sky was extremely quiet.

The fragrance emanating from Ye Qiuping wafted straight into Chen Yansen's nose.

A dozen minutes later, the car stopped at the entrance of the residential area.

"Boss, would you like to come up and sit for a while?" Ye Qiuping asked boldly, her face flushed and her eyes filled with laughter.

Want to try it?

Chen Yansen was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help but think to himself: He really hasn't changed at all, still as flamboyant as ever.

Since Ms. Ye was so hospitable, Mr. Chen certainly wouldn't refuse her.

Chen Yansen's only complaint was that Ye Qiuping's bed was too small, limiting his room to maneuver.

The next morning, Chen Yansen finally returned to the Xuyuan Academy by car.

……

……

7 month 23 number.

NetEase has released a pre-sale link for the Ruiying G1 on its official website.

Despite being 100 yuan more expensive than the 360 ​​G800 Pro, the processor performance was significantly improved. Coupled with the quality control backing of Orange Technology and the smoothness of the Aurora OS system, NetEase Mobile sold 6 pre-orders in the first hour after its launch.

Before Chen Yansen even arrived at his office, Ding Lei called, requesting an additional 50 units to be produced.

at the same time.

Zhou Jinling and his team, who were far away in East Africa, set foot in Nigeria, a West African country with a population of over 2 million, for the first time, carrying improved versions of Orange D1 and Orange C2.

This is Orange Technology's second stop in the African market!
“Brother Zhou, I’ve already contacted the distributors in Abuja. As long as the shipments are stable and the after-sales service is guaranteed, they’ll be willing to sell our products,” Qi Liang said from the side.

"I estimate that sales of Orange F3 (an improved version of Orange C2) won't be very high," Jin Xu added.

Zhou Jinling understood Jin Xu's meaning; he simply thought Nigeria was too poor. He shook his head and said, "Even the poorest places have no shortage of rich people. Don't look down on this place. Apple sells 100 million units in Nigeria every year."

"Holy crap! Really?" Jin Xu stared wide-eyed, asking incredulously.

"I told you to read more books and study more, but you make it sound like I'm trying to harm you. All this information is on the company intranet," Zhou Jinling said irritably.

His year in East Africa brought about tremendous changes. He was driven by an unwavering drive to climb the corporate ladder. He worked during the day and studied French and English diligently at night, reading every single industry report provided by his company.

Relying on his sales experience in Abyssinia and the three-tiered sales network model, Zhou Jinling is confident that he can successfully enter the Nigerian mobile phone market.

Jin Xu gave an awkward smile and scratched his head.

The group of six exited the airport, hailed a car, and headed towards the hotel.

Chen Yansen sent more than twenty sales teams like Zhou Jinling to Nigeria in one go.

Although Africa is not as wealthy as Europe and the United States, it has a large population, and its market potential should not be underestimated.

It has the capacity to absorb at least 4000 to 5000 million smartphones a year.

Even Apple and Shanxing didn't object, so Orange Technology has even less reason to give up this fertile market.

the other side.

Chen Yansen received another private call from Ma Liyun, who asked him to discuss the preparations for Cainiao Logistics.
