As for Panda brand mobile phones... Zhou Chen is also no stranger to them. Panda used to make radios. Later, it launched mobile phones. In 1994, it developed its first branded mobile phone. It can be regarded as a pioneer in the mobile phone industry. However, the competition is too fierce. Panda brand mobile phones did not survive in the mobile phone field... Zhou Chen came to his senses and said with a slow smile, "Gionee and Bird are big brands after all. They are relatively strict with OEM manufacturers. Our small factory with 1,600 people is indeed not impressive enough. Moreover, the incident of Wang He absconding with the money is probably already known. Their refusal to cooperate is reasonable. Since Panda is willing to entrust us with OEM production of mobile phones, let's cooperate with them!" Liu Chen forced a bitter smile. "But the processing price given by Panda is really too low. Excluding labor and utilities, there is only a profit of thirty cents per mobile phone!" Zhou Chen was surprised and said, "Can we still make money?" Liu Chen's mouth twitched hard. "You wouldn't really want to make no profit at all, would you?" Zhou Chen said with a smile, "As I said before, our purpose of taking on OEM production is to support the workers!" Liu Chen continued, "I only made a preliminary calculation of the wages of the workshop employees. The management hasn't been calculated yet!" Zhou Chen said indifferently, "It's enough to support those employees. I'll support the management!" With a net worth of over 100 million, one speaks with confidence. In fact, the salaries of company supervisors and managers are not particularly high. The salaries of R & D personnel are a huge expense. Of course, Zhou Chen wouldn't take it to heart.
The research and development department is inherently a money-burning department. Those large enterprises invest in the research and development department in units of hundreds of millions.
"Chairman, I'm very sorry that I couldn't find high-quality customers!" Liu Chen lowered his head, looking dejected. Although the boss said it didn't matter verbally, he really didn't do a good job. Zhou Chen smiled and said, "You've done very well. Don't blame yourself. Now I'll assign you a second task!"
"What task?" Hearing the boss praise him, Liu Chen was shocked. Zhou Chen slowly said, "Help me contact the screen supplier, battery supplier, chip supplier, and camera supplier of Laidi mobile phone. Come to my office at twelve noon on Saturday to collect the payment!"
Liu Chen was puzzled and said, "Is it so troublesome? Can't we just transfer the money to them directly?" Zhou Chen leaned back in the boss's chair and stared at Liu Chen's eyes with his deep eyes.
"Sorry... I talked too much!" Liu Chen wished he could slap himself. For what the boss decides, he just needs to do it. Why so much nonsense?
Zhou Chen waved his hand. "You can go now." Liu Chen entered the office with a smile and left the office with a bitter face. Zhou Chen took out his mobile phone and checked the time. He found more than twenty unread messages. After opening the phone and taking a look, they were all balance change messages sent by ICBC.
At the end of military training, I forgot to turn on the standard mode for my mobile phone, resulting in no ringtone for messages. Eight hundred thousand from Wangjiang Sub-branch was deposited into the account. The remaining more than twenty messages were transfers from the account of Ai'ou Company. Each transfer was eight million, totaling 180 million. Looking at the long balance, a smile curved on Zhou Chen's lips. Three months after being reborn, he had already become a billionaire with a net worth of nearly 200 million from a poor high school student. The small amounts of money from selling equipment don't count. It only took him a week to really start making money. The more than fifty sets of houses in his hand can probably bring back 30 million. The skating rink and KTV are in prime locations and cover a very large area. It is estimated that they can bring back around 40 million. After recovering these two sums of money, his assets will increase to 250 million. Zhou Chen was not happy because of this 250 million. Next, funds still need to be injected into several suppliers. It will take a long time for suppliers to upgrade equipment and develop new hardware. During this period... His money will only flow out like water. And there is still no incoming revenue. So... He still has to make money hard. Zhou Chen originally wanted to go out for a meal, but seeing that his colleagues in the finance department were extremely busy, he called Qi Yunfeng to come and help together.
Qi Yunfeng sat on the chair and started chatting up a finance colleague beside him. "Beauty, after counting so much money for so long, will your hand cramp?" The beautiful finance colleague pouted and said, "I've counted even more money. So far, I haven't experienced what it feels like to have a hand cramp." "Then it should be that you haven't counted enough!" "Um!" The beauty responded faintly and seemed not too keen on talking to him. Qi Yunfeng persisted and asked, "How long have you been in finance?" "Three years!" "Then your salary should be very high, right?" "Not high!" "Do you have a boyfriend?" "No!" "Then what kind of boyfriend are you looking for? I know..." "Can you shut up?" The beauty suddenly interrupted Qi Yunfeng angrily. This attracted the attention of several other finance staff. Qi Yunfeng instantly became nervous and stammered, "Sorry, I... I..." Another finance colleague rolled her eyes. "we are counting money. You are distracting her and it's very easy to make a mistake in counting." Qi Yunfeng embarrassedly scratched his head. "I know I was wrong!" However, in the next second. The beautiful finance colleague who was angry just now suddenly stared straight at Qi Yunfeng in surprise and said, "Are you... Brother Yunfeng?" Qi Yunfeng was first stunned, and then carefully looked at this beauty. "You know me?"
The beauty exclaimed in surprise, "I'm Xu Wenwen, Xu Rongrong's younger sister!" Qi Yunfeng's mouth twitched slightly. "It's you!" At this time, Zhou Chen interjected and asked, "Do you two know each other?" "Yes. She is my sister's high school classmate!" Xu Wenwen blushed and looked at Qi Yunfeng, excitedly saying, "Brother Yunfeng, after several years in the military, you have become much stronger!" Before Qi Yunfeng could reply, she and questioned, "When did you retire? Why didn't you go back to see my sister?" Qi Yunfeng hung his head and smiled bitterly. "Your sister is already married. I don't want to disturb her life..." Xu Wenwen took a deep breath. "It seems my sister didn't tell you anything!" Qi Yunfeng looked up and stared at Xu Wenwen. His carefree eyes became sharp. Xu Wenwen's eyes were slightly red, and her voice choked as she said, "My sister has been gone for four years..." Boom! Qi Yunfeng's eyes widened in shock. Losing control of his emotions, he pressed Xu Wenwen's shoulders and a hoarse voice came from his throat. "You... What did you say... Say it again?" Xu Wenwen burst into tears and said, "My sister was diagnosed with lymphoma in her junior year. She passed away the next summer!" Qi Yunfeng was struck by lightning. His eyes were red, and his body trembled as he murmured, "How could this be... How could this be... Why didn't she tell me?"
At this time, the finance supervisor frowned and said, "Xu Wenwen, it's working hours. Can't you catch up after work if you want to reminisce?" Xu Wenwen wiped away her tears and buried her head to continue counting money. Zhou Chen silently counted money and didn't say anything either. There were still more than a thousand employees outside waiting to collect their salaries and go home. Although he didn't know Qi Yunfeng's story, he had guessed the general idea. Qi Yunfeng's white moonlight was gone... And he had been kept in the dark. Zhou Chen had seen such plots on TV and in novels. One party had a terminal illness but hid it from the person they liked, and the hidden party went far away. Years later, the person who was kept in the dark learned that the person they liked separated from them because of a terminal illness and was extremely grief-stricken and heartbroken.such a plot is very melodramatic. But reality is often more melodramatic than the plots in novels or on TV. Just like the story that happened to himself and Tang Wan. Isn't it also very melodramatic? Qi Yunfeng had tear stains on his face and said to Zhou Chen with a stiff neck, "Boss... I..." Zhou Chen nodded and said, "Go and take a look..."
