Chapter 340 Ten Cities in the Future
Chen Shi updates three or four chapters of Mortal every day, about 10,000 words.
If he follows his update pace, the word count may be between 250,000 and 300,000 words when it is released in July, which is even less than when Mortals in the previous life was released.
Last month, it was said that there was a seven-day holiday on May Day, but Chen Shi didn't go anywhere.
During this period of time, weekends, mornings and evenings will be strengthened with training to prepare for the National Track and Field Championships in early July.
Spend some time a day dealing with company affairs, and spend the rest of the time at home or in the office typing.
Chen Shi has a lot to write. The fifth episode of Harry has been written and he is currently writing the sixth episode;
Dou Po English has been translating, and then busy writing Mortals.
By the summer vacation, I should have finished writing the complete works of Harry and the English version of Fighting Po, and only then will I have time to travel.
Yu Ran knew that Chen Shi was very busy and did not go out to play. Moreover, during the May Day holiday, every scenic spot in the country was crowded with people.
In Chengdu, every shopping mall is packed with people. It is difficult to move even one step, and shopping is not a joy.
When students go out to play and take the bus, they can't get a seat at all. Several friends go out together and get separated if they rush to take the bus.
On the expressway, there is basically a traffic jam. Even Chen Shi's Rolls-Royce is still unable to move when it encounters a traffic jam on the expressway.
During last month's May Day holiday, Yuran simply organized students to do charity activities in poor areas and enjoy the rural scenery.
At that time, 200 students from the Polytechnic University were organized, five buses were rented, and several trucks were specially used to transport supplies, and they were divided into several teams and rushed to the planned poverty-stricken areas.
Several cars were hung with red banners such as "Chen Shi's Private Charity", "Heart to Heart to Give Love, Hand in Hand to Help", "Everyone gives a piece of love, the world will be a better place" and other slogans.
It doesn't cost much to hold an event once a week. Chen Shi has no less than 50 million in his private charity account.
However, if there is a big disaster, tens of millions or hundreds of millions will be donated in one go.
Yu Ran has been doing charity for so long, all in the name of Chen Shi, and has indeed built up a good reputation for Chen Shi.
In the province, Chen Shi's private charity has indeed gained a great reputation.
Time flies by so fast, I didn’t expect it to be June, and Mortal uploaded it.
Since this week, Mortal has maintained its popularity and is unstoppable, ranking first in the data on various literary platforms.
Within a week, most of the die-hard fans collected Mortals and started chasing books.
Of course, not all readers like the book Mortals. Some readers may simply not like reading fairy tales or fantasy books. This is not because the author is not good at writing.
However, if a mortal is so enthusiastic, he will try to take a look.
As a result, most readers fell in love with it after reading it, and turned from passers-by to fans, and then to die-hard fans.
Mortals is in full swing and will be available in July.
This time on the shelves, Gold Finger can definitely be upgraded to level 11, and the urban network points that can be covered by diffraction will reach 15 cities.
Goldfinger is currently at level 8, and upgrading to level 11 requires 2 million first-time subscriptions. With Chen Shi's current more than 3 million die-hard fans, he can stabilize the number of more than 2 million first-time subscriptions.
I just don’t know what heights ordinary people can reach in the next twenty days or so, and how many first orders they can make.
Goldfinger only revealed that upgrading to level 11 requires an initial subscription of 2 million, and did not disclose the amount required to upgrade to level 12. Chen Shi believed that it would not be a small number.
4000000?
5000000?
even more?
The further you go, the harder it is to upgrade.
At present, the functions of gold fingers are already very terrifying, extending life, enhancing physical fitness and appearance, enhancing memory, etc.
Chen Shi is even more looking forward to the awesome features that will come when he reaches level 11.
Currently, there are five urban network points covered by Golden Finger Diffraction, namely Rongcheng, Yucheng, Wucheng, Zhengcheng and Changshi.
The ten cities planned for the next step, after many days of discussion by Chen Shi and the company's senior management, were finally selected as Guangdong, Shenzhen, Shencheng, Sioux City, Hangcheng, Jiancheng, Qingd, Ningcheng, Xi'an, and Heshi.
This does not mean that you should choose the better city, but that you should connect the sales points in the city into a network and consider the convenience of supply.
The water in the Imperial City is too deep, Chen Shi has no plans to enter yet, and the supply chain is too long.
In fact, there are dozens of first- and second-tier cities, and there are many cities to choose from. When we first discussed it, everyone argued for many days.
Some senior executives are not in favor of entering Shanghai and Shenzhen because the shops there are too expensive and the labor costs are high. In addition, Meibang is a low-end clothing brand and may not be very popular in first-tier cities.
For the most controversial cities, everyone voted directly, and these ten cities were finally selected.
What others don’t understand is why the boss has to choose ten cities, why can’t he choose a few more cities to carry out the project together? It seems that the impact is not very big.
Anyway, the management who participated in the discussion of the group's strategic direction could not understand the boss's thoughts.
But the boss has the final say, and everyone always believes in the boss and his magic.
Everyone asked, but Chen Shi just didn't answer their questions directly, and gave many reasons.
"It doesn't have to be so fast. Ten cities is enough. If we take too big a step, we will still be in trouble!"
"Concentrate on building these ten cities first, which will be quite good. If you are given one year, you may not be able to do it well. If the development is stable, we can continue to expand the scale of the city next year."
"Don't look at me like this. The group has grown from less than 10,000 people to 20,000 people all of a sudden. We have so many management talents. It takes three to three years for the newly recruited managers to adapt to the new working environment.
Six months, and then it will take at least half a year to stabilize."
"Managerial personnel and core employees must be carefully selected, and it is better to have fewer employees than too many. My biggest headache now is the lack of people, not money."
Of course, it is very difficult and intensive to launch ten cities at once.
Fortunately, in the past few months, Chen Shi has arranged the general direction and prepared various departments to prepare for the group's expansion.
After Chen Shi finished his business in Rongcheng, he was going to ask for a few days off from the school and go to Su City to inspect the progress of the branch's work.
"Counselor, there are no exams in the next week, right?" Even if Chen Shi didn't have to ask for leave, the school wouldn't say anything to him. However, Chen Shi still called Han Yajing to express his respect for the school.
"There are no arrangements, Chen Shi, what do you want?"
"Oh, I plan to go on a business trip for a few days and go to Shanghai to handle company matters."
Han Yajing didn't ask any more questions. She knew that Chen Shi was busy with his affairs nowadays: "Okay, go ahead and do your work. I'll tell the substitute teacher."
"Thank you counselor!"
After taking care of school matters, Chen Shi went on a business trip the next day.
