Chapter 317 Introducing third-party forces
“Wanda?”
“We have entrusted Wanda to help bid, and we will take over the project from them later.”
“This couldn’t be better”
Zhou Yi understood and immediately smiled. Having a middleman can also reduce the secret operations of the bidding meeting.
In the first half of the year, although Wanda was deeply involved in the crisis of both stocks and bonds, it sold a large number of core projects in order to protect itself.
But a skinny camel is always bigger than a horse. Wanda Group is qualified to compete with Hengtai Country Garden in normal bidding, let alone with their support.
Lu Liang stayed in Sioux City for two days, and then went to the Wanda headquarters in Beijing to meet with Lao Wang and inform him of the bidding meeting to be held in the second half of the year.
As long as normal preparations are enough, the result is already determined anyway. No matter how many companies compete, they will only win the bid.
"Mr. Wang, please, as for the expenses, Wanda will pay them in advance, and we will round up the amount when the transfer is made."
Hearing Lu Liang's words, Lao Wang smiled and waved his hands as if he didn't care: "Money is a trivial matter. If you help us acquire 1,450 acres, we might even be able to increase Wanda's stock price."
Lu Liangliang understood the idea and chatted about it. Yu talked about pandas: "A Cong should lead the team to New York for the first data review."
"I heard that it seems that we set off last night, and it is probably still flying in the sky." Lao Wang sighed , Wanda went to Hong Kong, and Panda went to the United States.
Although the two are not the same size, they still have their own careers, and there is nothing more gratifying than being a parent.
“Hope it goes well.” Lu Liang glanced at Lao Wang. If he remembered correctly, Lao Wang was born in the 1950s and is sixty-three years old this year.
Last year he was the richest Chinese man in the world, with a round face, a tall and straight body, and full of momentum.
But this year, Wanda suffered a sudden change and fell off the altar. It may be that she worked too hard, which caused her body to lose weight. It was like she had lost her energy and energy, and her whole person looked old.
“Hope it goes well.”
Leaving Wanda, Lu Liang came to Byte, thinking that he hadn’t seen Yang Zhenyuan for a long time, and planned to come and have a look.
In the end, Zhang Yiming, guarding against him was like guarding against a thief: "Mr. Yang is on a business trip to Los Angeles."
Before finishing the conversation, he directly invited Lu Liang to a private room in the restaurant downstairs of the company.
In any case, prevent him from appearing in the company to prevent employees who don’t know the truth from being abducted.
Lu Liang has a very bad reputation in Beijing circles, and Yang Zhenyuan’s Douyin is just one of them.
The research and development of Tianxing vehicle-machine system cannot be separated from the support of friends in Beijing.
He no longer poaches people secretly, but directly recruits them openly. If the salary increase is not 50%, then 100%, and if 100% is not enough, then 150%.
As long as you accept and sign the contract, your income will be guaranteed regardless of drought or flood in the next three years. The better the technology, the higher the position, the higher the settlement fee will be.
Now the R&D team has expanded to 500 people, all of whom are engineers from Byte, Meituan, Baidu, and even Xiaomi.
"Mr. Lu, I think you should bring an umbrella with you when you go out, be careful of rotten eggs suddenly flying in."
Zhang Yiming gritted his teeth, this guy likes to kill people, the better the relationship with him, the more likely he will be poached. The more people there are.
Byte was the first to bear the brunt, followed by Xiaomi and Baidu, and more or less, thirty or fifty people were poached by him.
However, it seems that Qi Hu has been targeted recently. The leader in red is directly attacking Qi Hu, and Lu Liang is competing viciously.
"If someone throws rotten eggs at me, then it must be you who instigated it, or it was Qihu's Lao Zhou."
Lu Liang smiled, knowing why Zhang Yiming hated him so much, being poached On the one hand, on the other hand, labor costs are increasing.
They poach people with a salary that is 100% higher than the industry. If a company wants to retain people, it must either give equity commitments or raise salaries to retain them.
As far as he knows, since the establishment of Tianxing Technology, the salaries of computer professionals in the Beijing area have increased by an average of 42%.
Those people were too late to love him, so how could they be willing to throw rotten eggs to him.
Zhang Yiming glared angrily and advised kindly: "Mr. Lu, your style really needs to change."
It is a fait accompli that Lu Liang builds cars. He has a background in finance, and he is the least likely to change his style. What he lacks is money, and he likes to use money to hit people.
If Internet companies are smashed, just smash them. Anyway, it is a high-profit, low-maintenance industry. It is normal for technicians to have high wages.
Once he enters the industrial field, when everyone earns three to five thousand a month, Lu Liang will easily fall into trouble if he earns seven, eight, or even tens of thousands.
"What is the purpose of industrial upgrading? Isn't it just to make ordinary people's wages higher."
"If it was still 3,000 before the upgrade, and it is still 3,000 after the upgrade, then what is the meaning of the upgrade?"
Lu Liang smiled, but he didn't think so. He could afford it and didn't care about the money.
Moreover, his only advantage is having money. If he doesn’t spend money heavily and pay attention to the so-called healthy competition, how can he catch up with others. Lu Liang has always felt that the so-called healthy competition is just people who get on the bus in order to block the words invented by latecomers.
Competition is competition, there is nothing good or bad about it.
Zhang Yiming sighed: "Your good intentions are bitten by you, you will know when the time comes."
He asked again: "What do you want from Lao Yang?"
Lu Liang smiled and said: "I miss him, come and see him."
"Do you think I will believe it?" Zhang Yiming was speechless.
Lu Liang smiled and squinted his eyes, and revealed the matter: "By the way, I asked him to recommend some talents. The research and development of automobiles and machines has reached a bottleneck."
"Damn, I knew you weren't holding it in."
Zhang Yiming’s face Suddenly, the conversation changed: "I can help recommend some talents."
It's going to rain, the mother is getting married, and the same is true for employees resigning. Instead of blocking, it's better to let Lu Good to Huo Huo others.
Don't keep staring at them. Lu Liang's hair is almost bald because of a sheep.
"High-precision map, let's locate technical talents in this area."
Lu Liang didn't hide it either. Byte was weak in this area and was not within the scope of his consideration.
Zhang Yiming subconsciously blurted out: "Baidu... probably won't work. Mr. Li will probably kick you out."
He looked thoughtful and suddenly had an idea: "Mr. Lu, don't always stare. Close to our Beijing circle, the one in the south You can also consider it.”
“Think about it, DJ, Huawei, and Penguin, especially Penguin, have been promoting Penguin Map recently. There are more talents in the south, and your reputation is relatively good there. Better.”
Lu Liang was unhappy: "I have a bad reputation?"
"Haha~~" Zhang Yiming faked a smile.
“Let’s take a look then.”
Farewell to Zhang Yiming, Lu Liang went to the SOHO building in Zhongguancun.
Hu Weiwei informed that the promotion of the system is not going smoothly, and currently there are only three companies, Wuling, and Wei Xiaoli.
Xiaomi has cooperated with BAIC to empower Jihu, which means that after the Internet giants, mobile phone manufacturers have also entered the market.
The Tianxing OS system is very good, ranking first among domestic self-developed motorcycles.
But it's not so good that they have to do it. After all, it's just an auxiliary system, not even capable of assisting driving.
Qihoo 360’s idea is also the idea of most car companies. If you want to cooperate, you can, but it must be open source and developed by everyone.
Data collection has reached a bottleneck, and the progress of smart driving research and development has also stagnated. Therefore, we need a map to locate talents in this area and break the situation from other angles.
Hu Weiwei paused and then said: "Mr. Lu, Weilai Ideal, and Xiaopeng have all established driving technology companies one after another."
Although it is not clear whether it is to use eye drops with them to gain benefits, or it is intentional. Self-developed car machines, but this is a bad sign.
As long as their research and development progress and technology change speed fail to keep up with the development of the market, they will definitely be abandoned immediately.
Even if Tianxing Private Equity is their shareholder, it cannot change, because the premise of cooperation is mutual benefit. The main reason for being willing to carry Tianxing OS is that the system is better, and the relationship with Lu Liang is better.
If the company's interests are harmed because of the relationship with Lu Liang, other shareholders will not agree even if they are willing.
"It's better to rely on yourself than to rely on others." Lu Liang pondered, feeling that it was time to introduce third-party forces to accelerate the research and development of automobiles and machines.
He whispered to himself: "If it is too strong, it will be easy to turn against customers. If it is too weak, it will not be qualified. It is best to be in development, related to automobiles, but not directly competitive with us."
Hu Weiwei frowned lightly, thinking again and again, and asked uncertainly: "Are you talking about Didi?"
After thinking about it, she felt that only Didi met this standard. As of last year, a total of 3.85 million Online ride-hailing driver.
So many cars are running on the road every day. If they can access their database, the progress of smart driving research and development will be as fast as cheating.
And the key is that there is no need to pay the cost of installing the car machine, because the Didi driver version application itself is a data collector and transmitter.
"Binguo, you are so smart." Lu Liang asked with a smile, "Do you still have contact?"
Contemporaries, all of whom are rare female CEOs, heard that Hu Weiwei The relationship with Liu Qing is very good.
Hu Weiwei said: "I haven't contacted you for a long time, but Mr. Liu will not refuse your invitation."
