Chapter 595 You have to give me an explanation(1/2)
Author: The sea under the clouds
“Forget about investing in Dianping.com!”
"As for cooperation, I will discuss it with the people on the agricultural product side."
"After the discussion, we will look at the possibility of cooperation between the two parties, and then I will give you an answer to Ms. Wu tomorrow!"
"how?"
This meal actually took quite a long time. Of course, everyone’s main focus was not on eating, but on chatting.
Chen Xixi wanted to find out the sincerity of the other party's cooperation and wanted to get more information about the company in Hong Kong City from Ms. Wu.
The same goes for Ms. Wu. Although she accidentally discovered that the ingredients produced by Ideal Agricultural Products were incredibly good, and later sent someone to spend money to collect information, the information she learned was actually not as detailed as she imagined.
So she also wanted to know as much information as possible about ideal agricultural products, so the table was basically full of tests.
Chen Li tested Ms. Wu, and Ms. Wu tested Chen Li again, but in the end, no one knew who was better.
After all, this kind of understanding still lacks sincerity.
If we really want to talk about cooperation, Ms. Wu will definitely have to conduct an on-site inspection. Whether it is an ideal breeding farm or a breeding base for Ideal Agricultural Products in Western Xinjiang, she needs to conduct an on-site inspection before she can get accurate information.
The same goes for Chen Li. He also needs to investigate the strength and background of Ms. Wu and the company in Hong Kong City. After all, he cannot determine whether to cooperate with the other party based on just one document.
But to be honest, if the other party's strength is indeed what the information and Ms. Wu said, then Chen Li is really interested in this cooperation.
After all, although Ren Xiaobo is still relatively capable, to be honest, the other party really has a hard time doing marketing.
Ren Xiaobo's strength is his strong execution ability. Whenever Chen Li arranges any work for him, he will try his best to do it as well as possible.
However, if Ren Xiaobo is left to handle everything on his own, he will not be able to take charge of it on his own for the time being.
This can be seen from the fact that Ideal Chicken has not yet opened up in the market.
The reason why Ren Xiaobo is able to manage the agricultural product company now is mainly because the core of the current work of the agricultural product company is to cultivate the breeding system.
Whether it is fish, sheep, cattle, etc., they all need a complete breeding system before they can be gradually accepted by the market.
As for this aspect of work, Ren Xiaobo can still do a good job for the time being.
Chen Li had thought before that he might need to recruit more talents from the team's marketing department for agricultural products in the future.
But now, Chen Li suddenly felt that it would not be bad to cooperate with a mature company.
Of course, there is a premise here, that is, the basis of cooperation is based on win-win results for both parties, and even ideal agricultural products need to have certain advantages.
Chen Li didn't want the improved variety that he spent a lot of mall currency and a lot of time doing tasks to exchange from the mall to end up as a wedding dress.
Fortunately, at this point, Chen Li believed that Ren Xiaobo could still do it.
This guy may be lacking in sales and marketing, but he has experienced office struggles before. Although he lost, he still has rich experience.
Therefore, Chen Li called Ren Xiaobo at the dinner table and informed him that he would come to Yanjing tomorrow.
Of course, this also means to express a position. The subtext is to tell Ms. Wu that cooperation is possible and that Chen Li is very sincere.
After all, he has called the general manager of the agricultural product company to Yanjing, so he is naturally full of sincerity.
When it comes to Ms. Wu, she will naturally show some expression, and even be more sincere.
She directly told Chen Li that her brother-in-law was in Yanjing at the moment, and that he had been in Yanjing for five full days.
Okay~ Since the other party has said so, Chen Li can only express his position quickly.
"No problem, Mr. Chen!"
"If there are any difficulties in cooperation, Mr. Chen can tell me directly."
"We will show our utmost sincerity for this cooperation."
"However, I am really interested in Dianping.com, and I would like Mr. Chen to consider my suggestion carefully."
Ms. Wu raised her glass, Chen Li raised his glass, and Xu Xing, who had not spoken much tonight, also raised his glass.
After drinking the glass of wine, Chen Li said goodbye and left. Xu Xing and Ms. Wu sent Chen Li to the door of the hotel. Watching Chen Li's Cherokee leave, Xu Xing turned to look at Ms. Wu.
"I think. I need an explanation."
To be honest, Xu Xing was not in a very good mood at the moment.
In fact, she was not in a very good mood that night, and the reason for her bad mood was naturally because of the Ms. Wu next to her.
Xu Xing and Ms. Wu have known each other for several years. As early as when Sister Xu was still working at PricewaterhouseCoopers, she had met Ms. Wu several times due to work reasons.
Later, Xu Xing entered the investment industry and had several interactions with Ms. Wu during this period, so the two were barely friends.
Of course, this kind of friendship is not really that deep, but for people like Ms. Xu Xingwu, with this kind of relationship, a lot of things can actually be accomplished.
After all, people have to pay attention to one thing: you come and I go, you help me, I help you, and then we make money together.
Ms. Wu had done a small favor for Xu Xing before. At that time, Xu Xing wanted to deal with a certain rich man in Hong Kong City due to work reasons, but Xu Xing had no connections in Hong Kong City at that time. Later, Ms. Wu helped her to make connections.
Later, the matter was resolved, and Xu Xing remembered the other party's help.
This is why Ms. Wu asked her to help contact Chen Li this time. Even though she knew that it was almost impossible for Chen Li to raise external funds, she still helped make an appointment with Chen Li.
Yes~ Why didn’t Xu Xing talk to Chen Li about investing in Panda QQ recently? Because she knew that Chen Li had made a lot of money recently.
Mu Xiaoqing's reputation as a short-seller queen was widely circulated in Hong Kong. Although it was only a temporary hit, it also meant that Mu Xiaoqing helped Chen Li make a lot of money.
With this large amount of money in his account, and Chen Li's brave personality, it is naturally impossible to talk about financing at this time.
Whether it's Panda QQ, or hao123, which many people are considering, or even Dianping.com, which was just launched this year, Xu Xing knows that at least at this time, no one can share the cake.
Only after Chen Li spends the funds on hand and at least makes some arrangements can it be possible to discuss cooperation with Chen Li.
As for Ms. Wu's initial expression of interest in the Internet, Xu Xing actually told her frankly that Chen Li's approach would probably not work.
But Ms. Wu expressed a strong interest in Dianping.com and repeatedly asked Xu Xing to help her.
Xu Xing naturally had nothing to say. For a friend like Ms. Wu who maintains interests, the relationship is that you help me and I help you. However, she naturally made it very clear when she contacted Chen Li. She was just an ordinary introduction.
Just people.
This subtext is to tell Chen Li that there is no need for Chen Li to consider his personal relationship with Xu Xing. If he can cooperate, he will cooperate. If he cannot cooperate, he will be pulled down.
However, Xu Xing never expected that the investment review website was just a cover, and this Ms. Wu directly used this cover to fool her.
So. She needs an explanation.
"Sorry~ dear!"
"I did hide something, but I didn't lie to you. I am really interested in Dianping.com."
“What I didn’t expect was that the boss of Dianping.com and the boss of Ideal Agricultural Products are actually the same person.”
"To tell you the truth, I have actually contacted the person in charge of Ideal Agricultural Products Company before."
"But the other party declined the invitation to meet and expressed his intention. He didn't seem to be very interested in cooperation."
"So I focused all my attention on the Internet industry some time ago and was very interested in Dianping.com."
"Later I discovered that these two families actually have the same boss, so..."
Ms. Wu was actually a little depressed. To be honest, she did not deliberately want to trick Xu Xing.
However, there was a misunderstanding in the process, and this misunderstanding was the reason why she asked Xu Xing to help with the matchmaking.
In fact, it was not Ms. Wu who was interested in Ideal Agricultural Products Company at the beginning. As she had talked to Chen Li on the flight before, her visit to the mainland this time was actually to conduct an inspection of the domestic Internet environment.
After all, the Internet industry is booming now. Anyone who is not old-fashioned can basically see the future of the Internet and want to join it.
But~ not long after she came to the mainland for inspection, her brother-in-law also came to Yanjing for work reasons, and then went to a private restaurant accompanied by a client.
Hmm. That’s right, it’s Lao Gong’s private kitchen.
Nowadays, Lao Gong's private kitchen is so popular. It is said that because Lao Gong only works four days a week, the food at his private kitchen is not available until two months later.
But this doesn't seem surprising. After all, Chen Li's farmhouse became so popular just because it used ingredients from the agricultural product company, not to mention Lao Gong's private kitchen.
The chef at Chen Li Farmhouse is just an ordinary cook, but for a chef like Lao Gong, top-notch ingredients naturally bring top-notch enjoyment.
So now Lao Gong is becoming more and more impressive in the Yanjing chef circle.
What makes him awesome is not only his craftsmanship, but also because only he can obtain unlimited amounts of top-quality ingredients from ideal farms.
Yes~ Even though the promotion of Ideal Agricultural Products’ breeding products in the market is not smooth, in a small area, especially in the circle of chefs, the reputation of Ideal Farm’s products must be high-quality has already spread.
But it's a pity that the scale of the breeding farms in Yanjing is limited. Although Chen Li expanded the breeding scale before, as the reputation of Ideal Chicken grows, those who are in need of top-quality ingredients are looking for it.
come over.
There are several five-star hotels here. Even if the breeding farms increase their breeding scale, it is impossible to satisfy all the customers who have needs.
Except for Lao Gong, as Chen Li's old friend, he is the only one who can get unlimited amounts of food from the ideal farm.
Moreover, unlike others who can only buy Ideal Chicken, Lao Gong can even buy Ideal Pigs, Ideal Fish, Ideal Sheep and Ideal Cows.
Of course, the reason why he was able to buy these things, apart from the good relationship between him and Chen Li, was also because he opened a private restaurant.
Now Lao Gong only makes six tables a day and only four days a week. Even if Chen Li opens up the supply, Lao Gong's demand is actually not big.
The reason why Chen Li opened up his supply to Lao Gong was not only because of the friendship, but also because Chen Li would go to his place for dinner from time to time.
