Chapter 258: Give Back to Alma Mater, or Scam Alma Mater
Su Ying looked at the message on her phone and held it tighter and tighter.
The first one was from my grandfather, who said, "As long as you make a decision after careful consideration, I will support you."
The second message was from Grandpa. "Although your last name is Su, you still have the blood of our Liu family in you. The interests of the Liu family should be prioritized in everything. You've already disappointed Grandpa once. I don't want you to disappoint me again. I also don't want your seat to be removed when the Liu family reunites in the future."
The third message was from my uncle. "Xiaoying, you've always been a sensible child, showing strong business and political talent from a young age. Your family has always had high expectations of you and respected your opinions. But this time, your uncle hopes you'll think it over carefully. Family comes first, country second. Throughout history, aristocratic families have been able to pass down their legacy for thousands of years, but dynasties rarely last more than three hundred years..."
The fourth message was from my aunt. "In today's national policy, economic development is everything. As the great man said: A black cat, white fur, is a good cat if it catches mice. Auntie hopes you will ponder this sentence carefully..."
The fifth one is from an unknown number. It looks like a messy message, but it needs to be read vertically.
"You've always had your own ideas, just like your mother when she was little. But your mother is too strong-willed. And your grandfather and your uncle have the final say in our Liu family, so I don't dare to go against them. I only have one thing to tell you: as long as you think it's right, you should do it. I secretly support you emotionally..."
Seeing this, Su Ying, who had originally frowned, burst out laughing.
Compared to the pressure from my grandfather, uncle, and aunt, this unruly uncle is actually the most considerate.
Although her uncle couldn't change her grandpa's and the others' minds, he could at least give her some comfort so that she wouldn't feel isolated and helpless when facing her grandpa and the others.
Although Pan Yinian didn't see the message on Su Ying's phone clearly, he could guess most of it from Su Ying's reaction.
Pan Yinian immediately held Su Ying's hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm here..."
Before Pan Yinian could finish his words, his cell phone started beeping.
Pan Yinian quickly took out his phone and looked at it. His face changed slightly and he called back quickly, "Sister Qin Qin, what happened?"
Qin Qin, "Two things."
“First, the 365 Alliance’s restart activities were very successful and received strong responses from all parties.”
"In just two days, we received over 2,000 phone inquiries, and over 300 people expressed their interest in joining..."
Hearing this, Pan Yinian frowned slightly, "This ratio is wrong. Normally, the number of people who have clearly expressed their intention to join should be around 600. Let's get straight to the second thing..."
Qin Qin, "Second, we were sniped."
"The Imperial Capital, Guangzhou, and Shanghai each established an internet cafe franchise company."
"While we were busy with the 365 Alliance's restart activities, they privately contacted the internet cafes we had excluded and formed a new internet cafe alliance."
"Moreover, their joining conditions are comparable to our new network, and even the machine configurations are almost the same."
"I suspect they copied and stole our server architecture."
"Furthermore, although these three internet cafe franchise companies belong to different companies or individuals, the internet cafe management software they use, aside from a slightly different appearance, has identical functionality and content. I suspect someone is deliberately orchestrating this..."
Pan Yinian frowned again, "Sister Qin Qin, don't worry about anything, just say it directly."
On the other end of the phone, Qin Qin took a deep breath and said, "According to my investigation, the wife of the behind-the-scenes controlling shareholder of a certain online franchise company in the capital is surnamed Liu..."
Swish!
Pan Yinian's narrow eyes suddenly narrowed into a slit, "What are their names?"
As soon as Pan Yinian finished speaking, Su Ying asked into the microphone, "Sister Qin Qin, is the controlling shareholder's surname Chen?"
Qin Qin was slightly stunned and said, "Yes."
Su Ying's delicate and cold face suddenly showed a hint of coldness. "It's my uncle-in-law and my aunt."
Su Ying took Pan Yinian's phone and said into the receiver, "Sister Qin Qin, the Internet cafe chain franchise companies in Shanghai and Guangzhou are most likely my uncle's partner, or my aunt's best friend. You don't need to worry about those two companies, just target the one in Beijing."
"Isn't next year the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the country?"
"Just make a public announcement. To celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of Xinsheng and to give back to his hometown, Pan Yinian will waive the franchise fee for one year in the capital and Yanbei. The commission from the centralized procurement will be 20%."
"Half an hour later, you'll issue a second announcement. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and to pay tribute to the martyrs, Xinsheng Network will hold a grand ceremony to relaunch the Thousand Store Alliance. Franchise stores within the 1000-plus franchisees will receive a 0.50% discount. The Thousand Store Alliance membership card will also be available for purchase. Top up your account at one store and enjoy nationwide roaming..."
On the other side of the phone, Qin Qin was stunned. "Su Ying, this... our current technology is not capable of this, and there are too many loopholes. If something goes wrong..."
Su Ying, "Don't worry about the technology. This level of technology isn't difficult for our new national-level network laboratory. The most important thing is that you have to appease all the franchisees who have already joined before nightfall. We can't let a fire start in our backyard."
Qin Qin pondered for a moment. "Okay, I understand. Qin Yuyan, Mr. Pei, and I will personally call the franchisees and, based on the existing franchise plan, unify the franchise fee for six months. Then, I promise that the existing 365 franchise stores will be the second-tier merchants with priority to try out the software and supporting services, in addition to my directly-operated stores. The others will be ranked later."
Su Ying, "Then I'll trouble Sister Qin Qin. Pan Yinian and I..."
Qin Qin said, "Wait a minute. You two are so heartless that you ran away as soon as the holiday started. Do you really think I'm iron-clad? Let me tell you, Qin Yuyan and I have already booked plane tickets for 5:30 pm. Prepare some food and drinks for me, otherwise, I won't let you go."
Snapped!
After saying that, Qin Qin hung up the phone.
Su Ying and Pan Yinian looked at each other, a hint of helplessness flashing in their eyes.
Pan Yinian, "I told Mom to clean up another room and install a temporary air conditioner. That should be enough. As for food, that's easy. A big pot of food will definitely make them happy. But..."
At this point, Pan Yinian frowned slightly, "If you do this, your aunt and the others..."
Su Ying's eyes dimmed slightly, and then she shook her head. "There are no fathers and sons in the business world, especially since they were the ones who were wrong first."
Pan Yinian was slightly stunned, then nodded.
Just as he was thinking about how to compensate Su Ying, Qin Qin sent a message: "I forgot to mention that the three companies' alliance ordered a certain machine."
"Someone wants to?"
Pan Yinian and Su Ying were stunned for a moment, and their eyes turned cold at the same time.
Liu Xiangxi had already been dismissed from his post, but he was still able to influence a certain decision. This was somewhat beyond the expectations of Pan Yinian and Su Ying, but it was also within Pan Yinian's expectations.
Later generations:
Liu Xiangxi first triumphed in the battle between trade and technology, and technology and trade, then expelled core members of the technology and trade department, including Ji Yunchang and Ji Lao. Not long after, he seized power again, causing the Technology Research Institute to lose voting rights and then be purged from management. Finally, under the guise of employee stock ownership, control was left in the hands of a few individuals...
From this series of operations, we can see how strong Liu Xiangxi's influence and control are within a certain company.
Therefore, even after Liu Xiangxi left Mou Xiang, he could still influence Mou Xiang, which was within Pan Yinian's expectations.
What surprised Pan Yinian was that after Lao Qin and related senior executives joined the struggle, a certain person was able to take action in this way and snipe their new network.
This time, I'm afraid that it will not only be a certain item that will suffer, but also the Liu family behind it.
Thinking of this, Pan Yinian turned his head to look at Su Ying.
At this moment, Su Ying's frosty face was filled with a hint of sadness that was hard to conceal.
But the next second, this touch of sadness turned into coldness and determination.
The Liu family and someone thought that their relentless suppression of the new network was no longer just a matter of showing off, but a desperate move. They had torn off all their pretense and were suppressing Pan Yinian, suppressing her...
Did it ruin your layout?
Su Ying sneered and raised her hand to hold Pan Yinian's hand. "Do you want to completely get rid of Mou Xiang, or in other words, make Mou Xiang ours?"
The madness in Su Ying's eyes shocked Pan Yinian.
This idea is too crazy.
Even Pan Yinian, who was reborn, did not dare to think so.
Or in other words: At least, before this, I didn’t dare to think so.
Although the company in 1999 was far from the unshakable giant it became in later generations, its current market value is over 100 billion U.S. dollars.
How much does he have now?
Xinsheng Network now has 365 chain-franchised Internet cafes that have been completed and opened for business, and more than 200 Internet cafes are under renovation or waiting for renovation. Even if all these more than 600 Internet cafes are counted as his, his assets are just over 10 billion.
In reality, he only owns three-tenths.
Still a great group of people, not an ugly knife.
In 99, the exchange rate between Great Man Group and Ugly Knife was around 8.27/1.
In other words, his new network is only one-third of others'.
How to do this?
and many more……
Pan Yinian's eyes lit up.
It has only been half a year since he founded New Life Network.
It only took him half a year to create one 300th of his idea.
He may be able to achieve this one-third, one-third, or even one-tenth within two to three years.
This does not include the domestic systems that can produce results within a year and become fully mature and open source within two years.
In addition, he used his prophetic thinking and huge experimental fields to continuously launch network software.
The new students in two to three years may not be unable to compete with someone.
What's more, there are penguins that have already hatched and are developing rapidly.
Also, there's the large-scale online game that will be released next year, and "Legendary World" that we've already started negotiating with...
This series of layouts will rapidly grow into a behemoth within two to three years.
If there were no rigid constraints, it would not be impossible for a new network to catch up with a certain one within two to three years.
As soon as he thought of this, Pan Yinian's eyes became sharp and burning, "Done."
"it is good."
Su Ying nodded, her charming eyes gleaming. "After deducting the funds reserved for the recently acquired pharmaceutical company, Xinsheng Network now has a balance of approximately 2.3 million yuan. The laboratory, Zhang Xing's Samsara, and Xinsheng each have 1000 million yuan in reserve funds, and 5000 million yuan is reserved for new project development. The remaining 1.5 million yuan will be used to develop internet cafes."
"These internet cafes are centered in the Imperial Capital, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. Any university with a student population above that must have a freshman internet cafe nearby!"
"I want to see what they can use to compete with us..."
Looking at the domineering Su Ying, Pan Yinian nodded, "Actually, there's no need to keep the 5000 million yuan reserve fund for the new project."
"As long as we have franchisees and our new network, there will be a steady stream of money."
"Also, the turnover from each internet cafe we open will bring us huge cash flow."
"Even if there really is an emergency and we need a large sum of money, we can go to the bank. There's a saying that goes, if you owe a small amount, the creditor is the boss; if you owe a lot, the debtor is the boss."
"I'll do as you say." Su Ying raised the corner of her mouth slightly. "For the time being, let's not tell Sister Qin Qin about this. At least not for the next two days. Otherwise, Sister Qin Qin will fight us to the death. However, this will delay the plan a little."
Pan Yinian smiled and waved his hand, "Not really. I think that since Nanjing University has helped us so much, it's time for us to give something back."
Su Ying's eyes lit up and she nodded.
Pan Yinian took out his phone and called the dean of the business school. "Dean, the school has helped me so much. I think I should give something back."
